, "Hey" Xiao Tuipai, are you really not a monk? I, after all these people left, the little loli jumped over and grabbed Wukong's clothes, " "Then why did you say you were a monk when I asked you before?"

"I'm a monk." Wukong answered impatiently, sat there locking his eyebrows, touching his chin, and thinking about it over and over again.

Strange, I clearly thought something was wrong just now, what was wrong?

"Since you are a monk, why didn't you admit it if you beat him to death just now?" Luo Jian looked at Wukong with a little angrily, "Didn't you say that you monks are not allowed to lie?"

, "Nonsense, Zhou Shaode, that fool, obviously wanted to use the charge of privately seizing monks to capture Xiaoniu. If Xiaoniu admits that I am a monk, wouldn't I be as stupid as him?" "Wukong replied to Xiaoniu in anger, "Besides, "I didn't lie. I was not a monk, so the court would certainly not admit that I was a monk."

""The crime of privately saving monks?" Zeng Jian continued in confusion, " "Is it still a crime to be a monk?"

Of course, Xiao Luofei didn’t know. In fact, in this era, most people didn’t know that becoming a monk secretly was also a sin of one’s own sin, and it was also a great sin.

Because just last year, in the sixth year of Wude, Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty Li Yuan issued an edict, which divided the issue of private monks into two parts.

First, the private monks who were granted during the Sui Dynasty could temporarily maintain the status quo! Second, in the second year of Yining, that is, in the 681 AD, all the private monks who were granted the throne after His Majesty Li Yuan ascended the throne will be returned to secular life. Those who do not return to secular life will be killed!

It is impossible not to say that this edict from the Li Tang Dynasty is similar to the thing that leaves hair but does not leave heads when the wild boar skin entered the Central Plains. The contents are just one by one. The order of the wild boar skin is that you must shave your heads and those who don’t want to shave their heads. His Majesty Li Yuan’s order is that you are not allowed to shave your heads, and those who dare to shave their heads will be beheaded.

Fortunately, the wild boar skin was born a thousand years late. If they traveled through time and space, they would have had a lot of fun!

It was precisely because of seeing this edict that Wukong spent some money to bribe some officials of the Ministry of Rites, and then with some help from the Lu family, he inherited the position of Duke of Yichang County of his father Lumi.

The facts proved that Wukong was correct. Wukong had no doubt that if his identity was not a duke just now, even if he could use it to prove that he was a public monk, he would still be arrested by a county lieutenant who was a traitor and confusing public charge and was sent to prison.

After all, this is the Tang Dynasty, and it is not the Western Paradise that Li Laojun keeps his word, and the Zhi monk does not keep his word.

"Oh, Yuan Cheng has such a decree now!" "Luo Jian bit his finger with his hand, "Isn't it very dangerous to be a monk? Why don't you just really return to secular life and wait for two years to become a monk before you talk about it."

Danger, what is this world doing? Even if you walk on the road, you may stumble on your heel and fall down on the flat ground, then hitting your head to death!

Wukong gave Xiaoluo a blank look and was too lazy to talk to this little Luofei who had no knowledge. After two years, if Wukong remembered correctly, the measure of privately saving monks and dying without returning to secular secular life continued from the sixth year of Wude to the tenth year of Zhenguan.

Wait for two years, wait for twenty years and see if you can wait for you!

Of course, Li Tang was much better than wild boar skin. Although he was a private monk who did not return to the secular world, to be honest, not many people died for this, but the exiled people were really one by one!

Do you want monks so much to save all living beings? I will give you the opportunity to take root in the frontier and save those uncivilized and uncivilized people who are poor and bad. Don’t worry about these civilized and good people in the Central Plains!

","Baopiao, why don't you talk?" Little Roufei grabbed Goku's hand and shook it, "What are you planning?"

"No matter what I say, "I must follow my master, Master Daoxin." "Wukong was recommended by Xiao Luo to be so unbearable, "So I will definitely become a monk and a monk in the future."

"When will it be when will Xiao Tuipai become a monk in the future?" Xiao Luojian asked a little depressedly.

""Ding, ah, don't worry." Wukong said casually, "I'll talk about it when I can control my own destiny."

, "Control your own destiny?" "Luojian put his fingers into his mouth and bit them, ""It's so profound, I don't understand."

Just after Wukong and Xiao Luofei chatted for a few casually, they heard a sound of footsteps. Then Wukong saw the little lady who was a little fat in the shopkeeper holding two plates, twisting her waist, and swaying.

It must be said that this cute restaurant owner’s time for the dishes is quite like a police and gangster film.

However, although the owner of this restaurant is very cute, the food is just something you can eat. In addition, Wukong and Xiaoluojian are both extremely picky people, so in the end they just moved a few chopsticks. When they walked out of the restaurant after dinner, Wukong was still thinking about it.

Something is wrong, something must be wrong!

But what was wrong? Wukong stroked Zhou Shaode from the second floor of the restaurant to the behavior of turning around and leaving three times from beginning to end, but he still didn't expect anything was wrong. Xiao Tuipai, look at the sign, it's so strange," the little loli was there, he was talking.

"Don't talk to me!" Wukong locked his eyebrows, ""I'm thinking about something very important now."

, "But this matter is really strange!" "Luo Jian didn't give Wukong any face, and grabbed Wukong's ear and headed towards the city gate building near them, ", "Baopiao, look, isn't this Huangmei County? But why does the sign at the gate say that it actually is Yifeng County?"

Xiao Luofei's actions and the big Yifeng at the city gate were as shocked as Jingkong's thunderbolt. He immediately remembered that he thought something was strange just now.

, "In the lower Wang Hong, it is the Xuezheng of Yifeng County School...,"

That’s right, it’s just that this place is not Mu. Isn’t this Huangmei County? When did it become Yifeng County?

" "What do you ask about this? What's going on?" The old army guarding the door at the bottom of the city tower replied lazily, "It's changed, it's changed a few years ago. Huangmei County was divided into four counties. Our area is called Yifeng County!"

Damn, what's this? A county in Huangmei County is divided into four counties? Why don't I know about this and the matter? Hong Lei, a brain-dead man, can even ignore such important things for me.

There is also Brother Hong Renhuai, who usually looks like a smart and capable person, but he is so confused.

That's right, Huangmei County was divided, and it was divided. It was divided three years ago. The then emperor His Majesty Li Yuan divided the territory of several counties in southern Jianzhou, including Huangmei, from Jianzhou, and re-established a new administrative unit called Nanjinzhou.

Huangyi County was demolished into four counties, including Yifeng, Changji, Tangyang and Xincai. The place where Wukong and others are now located, that is, the old Huangmei County, has been scrapped into the scope of Yifeng County, so according to the official statement, this place should be called Yifeng County, not Huangmei County.

Of course, Wukong just now knew about this because Hong Lei didn't tell him at all. Hong Lei didn't tell him because Hong Lei himself didn't think this was an important thing.

A county was demolished into four supervisors. "For the court, it was definitely a big deal. As the saying goes, one ding and one pit, after this split, there were three additional county magistrates, three county leaders, three county magistrates, and three chief clerks. These are the twelve pits, twelve pits!

Now that the new dynasty is about to be determined, a large number of Luos who have really made contributions or believe they have made contributions are looking at the pit. Damn these twelve pits are enough for Luos to be beaten to death.

But for these honest and honest people, the matter of demolishing a county into four counties is really not a big deal. After all, after demolition, the court still needs to re-determine the territory. Could it be that after a county is demolished into four counties, the government offices of the four counties can collect taxes from me?

Of course it is impossible!

If the court dares to do this today, it will be guaranteed that these unruly people will rebel tomorrow!

If you don’t pay too much tax, what’s the use of this matter to me? Could it be that after the great master of the court scrapped the village next to me from our county to the next county, the way to our relatives was far away?

This is the simple dialectics of the common people. No matter what, it is good if it is useful! If it is useless, it is nonsense!

That's that simple!

Although Wukong cannot clearly understand why Hong Lei didn't tell him this, Wukong roughly thought that this is the reason for this nonsense.

So, why did the ancients say that people are so bold and the land is so rich! Look, Hong Lei, who has been a soldier, fought wars, killed people, let go of blood, and saw big scenes, can ignore such important things as a county being demolished into four counties.

Senior Brother Hongren is a great monk who is familiar with reading the scriptures and keeps his mouth shut. He is an excellent monk with Chimo. Needless to mention that in this Tang Dynasty, he threw him into the Tang Dynasty that claimed to be an explosion of knowledge, and he should be considered a famous religious scholar and a beast in the brick school!

But such a learned monk actually had no response to the fact that one county was demolished into four counties, and Wukong could not help but feel a burst of emotion! Who do you think we can count on for our work?

What is the most important thing in the 21st century? Talent!

Speaking of talent, Wukong couldn't help but think of the Xuezheng, Wang Hong, from Yifeng County whom he had just talked to, whom he had just talked to!

Although Wukong doesn't know if this person is a talent, it can be seen from the words just now that he is at least a person who has something to ask for.

Wukong is now missing such a person who is familiar with the local situation to understand. When I planned to deal with Taoist priests, Wukong was full of confidence because he had already started to inquire about Huangmei through Zen monks a few years ago, so before coming here, Wukong always felt that he had a good understanding of Huangmei.

But who would have thought that on the first day of the arrival, Goku felt that he had been hit by three blows!

The first one is, Zhou Shaode came here to be the county magistrate but he didn't know. The second one is, Zhou Shaode had already publicly banned Buddhism here and he didn't know. The third one is, Huangmei County was demolished into four counties three years ago, but he still didn't know.

Damn, after all, what do you know? To be continued.
Chapter completed!
