"Xu Wuxiang's son Xu Tianen went to the sea to kill the pirates."

After reading the secret report in his hand, Han Lingshan frowned and said to Hong Chengchou.

Hong Chengchou was sleeping in a wide chair, and he seemed to be sleeping without even raising his eyelids. It seemed that Han Lingshan was talking about something insignificant.

“Changzui Island is a good place…”

It took a long time before Hong Chengchou's voice came from his thick beard.

"Your Majesty's wish to not allow our personal power to be developed in the local Ming Dynasty is already obvious."

"Your Majesty's desire to be the homeland of the Ming Dynasty is already obvious."

"Your Majesty's desire to bury our bones overseas is already obvious."

"Your Majesty's desire to support the Ming Dynasty's land to annex us in the future is already obvious."

"Your Majesty's intention to kill the nobles and the great clans is already obvious."

"This is the only way for us to live."

"We are now regarded as alien by His Majesty!"

Hong Chengchou didn't say anything. As soon as he spoke, his words were like a fire on the grassland.

Han Lingshan sneered and said, "We are aliens! If the people are a group of lambs, we are tigers and leopards, if the people are a group of birds, we are vultures, if the people are a group of small fish, we are giant sharks in the sea.

Since they are aliens, then separate.

When lambs and birds and fish are joined by small fish, we are joined by tigers, leopards, vultures and giant sharks."

Hong Chengchou sighed to the sky, "How unfair."

Han Lingshan said: "You are already kind to your Majesty if you can live until now."

Hong Chengchou said: "So do you!"

Han Lingshan laughed and said, "I'm different."

Hong Chengchou said: "Where is different?"

Han Lingshan laughed and said, "I can run!"

After saying that, the two laughed together.

It was obviously an extremely sad thing, but it was endless fun to say it out at this time.

After laughing for a long time, Hong Chengchou kept coughing, and it took him a while to calm down.

"The people's wisdom has not yet been opened, so Your Majesty wants to expel all of us, those who are enlightened. Is this the reason?"

"I used to slaughter a temple. What the abbot in the temple said was very interesting. He said that the beginning of the new dynasty was the arrival of the Dharma-Ending Age.

I asked him, what is the Dharma-Ending Age?

He said: Morality is degraded, lost justice, cheating, rape and plunder, poor people raise their swords to seek survival, rich people build cities to protect themselves, Buddhism is destroyed, Taoism is gone, war begins, ecology is destroyed, monks and Taoism escapes the world, wild beasts go down the mountain, fox demons sit in the hall, demons are rampant, three realms are turbulent, the three-dimensional door of the demon world is wide open, the yin and yang, children and mother worlds are lost, the external demons bewitch people's hearts, and the era of killing is coming, which is the Dharma-Ending Age.

I asked him: If I don’t kill him, will I avoid the Dharma-Ending End.

The old monk said: The first sign of the coming of the Dharma-Ending Age is that those who believe in Buddhism die. The more they believe in Buddhism, the faster they die.

I asked him: What is the solution?

The old monk said: Because it is the world of gods and demons, Buddhas are not allowed to exist in the world of gods and demons.

However, the world without Buddha is precisely the world in which Buddha is everywhere. Countless pairs of compassionate eyes look down at the people, watch them kill, and see them step into destruction.

Without the Buddha, gods and demons will control demons with demons, killing endlessly, and the sea of ​​blood will eventually become destructive.

After the gods and demons destroyed the world, spring grass resurrection, flowers bloomed, and the world returned to chaos, without good or evil, this is the realm of Buddha.

Later, the Buddha came out, the society was clear and the people were happy, and the world was peaceful! The three realms were stable, and the gods and demons returned to their positions!"

"You mean we are Buddhas in the Dharma-Ending Age?"

"Don't be too polite to yourself, we are just a group of Buddhists."

Hong Chengchou drank a glass of wine and nodded, "It seems that there is a little reason. By the way, what famous mountain did you kill the monk from?"

Han Lingshan said: "The immovable Ming King in Maitreya Temple."

"Oh, Maitreya Buddhism--"

"Although it is a cult, I think these words make a lot of sense. I talked to the body of the Unmoving King Bodhisattva for two days. In the end, he did not save me. I killed all the monks in the temple and burned their temples.

The body of the Unmoved King Bodhisattva cursed me in the flames and would not die well, Maitreya would definitely punish me.

I stayed in the ruins for three more days, and I didn’t see Maitreya, nor did I give up the punishment of heaven, but only the spring rain and the peach blossoms are in full bloom."

Hong Chengchou smiled and said, "What do you mean by telling me these words?"

Han Lingshan laughed and said, "As Hong Chengchou, who had already moved his family and life to the sea, do you think it's appropriate to attack Your Majesty with such sad and angry words?"

Hong Chengchou laughed and said, "After I die, I will always be buried in the ancestral grave. I am talking to my corpse, not for my life. Life is free at the sea, and the corpse rots and smells like a stinking in the coffin. Don't you think this is very suitable?"

"Your Majesty actually hopes that you can go to Yaozhou to be the prime minister, but you are hiding in Guangzhou to pretend to be sick. There is no way. Your Majesty has to ask Shi Kefa. Although this person is also a good candidate, I know that Your Majesty has been waiting for you to volunteer."

When Hong Chengchou saw that Han Lingshan began to say something in his heart, he sighed, "I chose not to go to Yaozhou, which has nothing to do with the government, and I have not even thought about the balance between pros and cons. The reason why I did not go to Yaozhou is that there is no other reason except that Yaozhou is remote.

I am old and have no ambition to open up a new world in ragged clothes.

As you can see, the old man in front of you is an old man who likes to enjoy the beauty of wine."

Han Lingshan nodded and said, "Yes, the reason why this world can be pacified is that you have a contribution to it. Now, it is natural that you have to enjoy it on the credit book.

Since you have made up your mind to enjoy it, then enjoy it to the end. Don’t enjoy the strange thoughts of smoothing something, destroying something, or creating something, that’s not good.”

Hong Chengchou smiled but said nothing.

But when Han Lingshan stood up and said goodbye, he seemed to be muttering to himself: "Are you really sure the emperor won't kill you?"

Han Lingshan stopped and looked at Qingtian and said, "I believe that this sky is Qingtian, I believe that fire is hot, I believe that when I am tired, I should go to bed. When I fall asleep, I can still open my eyes at dawn, but the sun is still bright."

After saying that, he left Hong Chengchou's official residence with great strides.

He waited in the inn for three days.

On the fourth day, he received the memorial of Hong Chengchou's begging for bones. After seeing the memorial, he immediately took out an emperor's seal from his arms, drank a heavy sip of water vapor on the seal, and then heavily covered the memorial of Hong Chengchou's begging for bones.

Looking at the memorial with a bright red seal in front of him, Han Lingshan changed into his official uniform, held a bright yellow imperial edict in his hand, and took the twelve officials of Guangzhou Prefecture to step into Hong Chengchou's official residence to read the decree.

On the seventh day of the second month of the 10th year of China, Hong Chengchou retired and returned home as the first deputy prime minister of the State Administration. The emperor advised him to stay three times. Hong Chengchou's desire to beg for bones was indestructible, so the emperor agreed.

The emperor was inspired by Hong Chengchou, who had half his life in the Ming Dynasty, made outstanding achievements, and was awarded the title of Haining Duke, with three thousand households, land, and one thousand miles...

"I thought it would be something after next fall."

At the banquet set up by Hong Chengchou to thank the angel Hanling Mountain, Hong Chengchou was extremely depressed to Hanling Mountain Road.

Seeing that there were only the two of them in the study, Han Lingshan took out the emperor's seal from his arms and shook it in front of Hong Chengchou's eyes, and immediately took it back into his arms.

"Is it so urgent?"

"Your Majesty is anxious, afraid that you will not have a good result."

"You are holding the emperor's seal, which is a usurpation. Under the fire and cooking oil, aren't you afraid of death?"

"No such feeling. After all, when His Majesty threw the seal to me, he was burning the fire and boiling incense."

"Do you trust Yun Zhao so much?"

"Since he trusts me so much, why can't I trust him the same way?"

"Oh, you won't have a good ending."

Han Lingshan looked at Hong Chengchou gloomyly and said, "You reminded me of the unmoved Ming King again."

Hong Chengchou lowered his head in depression and whispered: "Can the land of thousands of miles be in Annan?"

Han Lingshan shook his head and said, "No, Your Majesty has just appointed the new Annan Prefecture magistrate according to the documents of the Prime Minister's Office."

"Where is Siam?"

"It's a coincidence that the appointment of the Siam Prefecture magistrate has just passed the Congress."

"Melaka has no share, right?"

Han Lingshan took a sip of wine and stood up and said, "If I were you, you should bring your twenty-six concubines in Annanna, eleven godsons, and 11,427 slaves I bought to your Hong family to build a six-year Haining Island life and develop the island."

"Haining Island is not a good place to live outside of Malacca!"

"It's not bad, it's very close to India, making it easier for you to do business."

"Don't you feel ashamed of treating an old minister like this?"

"I was indeed a little ashamed. I originally advised Your Majesty to kill you, but after thinking for a long time, my Majesty still refused my suggestion. This made me feel very ashamed. If I advised Your Majesty to kill your whole family, Your Majesty might retreat and kill you only."

"Will Sun Chuanting end up like me?"

"It's different. Old Sun also begs for bones, but he has joined the presidium of the Congress."

"He betrayed me?"

"No, I didn't read your letter and threw it into the brazier and burned it."
