Yiyin sat in a quiet room, closing his eyes and relaxing.
Today, he has finally learned the lesson of the Enryaku Temple Order. These noble nuns are truly a model of power inbreeding, arrogant and stupid.
The Tiantai Sect is close to Kyoto, and most of the high-ranking officials in the past dynasties are descendants of powerful people in Kyoto. The martial arts family has a family status, and the sect has a lineage, which are used to distinguish the high and low.
The Enryaku-ji Temple on Mount Hiei, which has lasted for eight hundred years, has degraded to an outrageous level in terms of its religious authority, political wisdom, and military power.
And in the hands of these stupid guys, they still guard the wealth accumulated by the Tendai Sect in the past thousand years. No wonder Oda Nobunaga never forgot it after attending a Hieizan Buddhist meeting.
As the saying goes, poverty breeds cowardice.
Oda Nobunaga was a daimyo worth two million koku, but she was determined to spread military power over the world and resorted to military means. She was probably the most money-hungry person in the world.
Black-eyed people can't see silver. How much of this mountain siege is directed at the Asai-Asakura coalition? And how much is it for the dead man Mori Kashige? Or is it because he is interested in wealth and can't help but keep his temper?
Those bald donkeys of the Tiantai Sect, when disaster strikes, they still hold their pockets tight and stingy with those few copper coins. They really don't know how to live or die.
A few sensible people like Lord Kakushu cannot lead the entire sect of fools. If Hieizan Enryakuji continues to be so stupid, even if it can pass the current test, it will happen sooner or later in the future.
In fact, Yiyin doesn't care how the Tiantai Sect dies in the future. He didn't come here this time because he was willing to protect this group of old nuns who have no eyesight. He did it out of consideration for his own interests.
Tomorrow, if Master Kakushu still cannot unify the opinions within Enryaku Temple, Yoshigan will come down without hesitation.
Anyway, he has reached an agreement with Oda Nobunaga and Asai Nagamasa. As long as Asai and Asakura's coalition forces retreat, the pressure on Enryaku Temple will be greater than it is now, and 50,000 guan will no longer be able to solve the problem.
Don't think that Oda Nobunaga is the only one who hates this group of ignorant nuns. The Yamasa Master Asai Nagamasa spent so much money to hire is of no use at all, and she is also very angry.
If you are not afraid of spending more money, you are afraid of spending it in vain. The most uncomfortable thing is that you can't get anything done with the money. How did Master Shan, who was so powerful in recent times, become like this? Asai Nagamasa is really disgusting.
Just as Yi Gin was thinking about something, the door was gently opened, and Kamao clan bowed and said.
"Jin Duo Hall, Master Jueshu is here to visit."
Yiyin raised his head and glanced at the sky. The sun had just passed noon. It had only been an hour since he had left the main hall, and he felt that the Master's movements were faster than he thought.
"Invite her in."
"Hi!"
After a while, Pu Sheng's village respectfully ushered in a person, it was the kind-faced and kind-hearted Master Jueshu.
As soon as she entered the room, she put her hands together and bowed, and said.
"The mountains are poor, the Zen room is simple, and there are many mistakes. Please forgive me for this."
Yiyin glanced at the duplex tatami at his feet, looked up at the red lacquered solid wood beams, turned the blue and white porcelain tea cup in his hand, and said with a smile.
"Master Jueshu is too polite. If you come here now, what do you want to teach me?"
Master Jueshu lowered his head and said.
"Tsudaden is compassionate and cares about all the people in the world, so he worked tirelessly to return to Koki and work for Mount Hiei for tens of thousands of people.
Just now in the Nedo Hall, Kojo-in was unable to realize your kindness for a moment, so he spoke rudely and brought shame to Enryaku-ji Temple.
Now, she has understood Tsudoden's good intentions, and is very ashamed and regretful."
Yiyin said calmly.
"Really? I didn't expect that there would be such a stupid person in Enryaku Temple. I don't want to see her again."
Master Jueshu looked sad and sighed.
"It's true that I can't see her anymore in Tsudo-den. I feel ashamed and can't help myself. She passed away in the Nedo Hall just now."
Yiyin was surprised to see that the old nun was so cruel, but she said, "Excuse me."
"I didn't expect that a few random words of mine would cause a generation of Gao Ni to pass away. I feel uneasy."
Master Jueshu shook his head and made a pun.
"This is your own choice to awaken, and it has nothing to do with Jindo Hall. Don't take it to heart.
In Buddhism practice, this stinky body is also a burden. Only by throwing this body away can you achieve the right fruit. Only by giving up can you gain."
Yiyin nodded.
"The Master's Dharma is profound, and I would like to accept your teachings."
Master Jueshu said with a smile.
"When I awaken to the west and go to Lingshan Mountain, the master of Jokoyō-in is vacant. Tsudo-den, please come with me to Jokoyō-in to commemorate the deceased's journey to the pure land."
Yiyin was a little confused. Enlightenment was dead and the obstacles to the negotiation had been removed. What was the point of inviting him to go sightseeing if Master Jueshu didn't continue the negotiation with him?
But his face remained calm and he smiled.
"I have long heard that Joko-in Temple is the temple of Master Saicho, and it is a view of the temple from the east tower of Enryaku Temple. Today I am lucky enough to accompany the Master on a tour. I am very happy."
Master Jueshu smiled slightly.
"As long as you are happy, I would like to ask Jindoden to condescend to move."
———
Jingguangyuan was built after the Zhulin Temple in Mount Wutai in the Tang Dynasty. Master Saicheng sent him to the Tang Dynasty to seek Dharma, and the place of practice was Mount Wutai.
Yiyin followed Master Jueshu, with a group of Ji warriors and nuns hanging far behind him, deliberately keeping the distance between them to allow the two superiors to chat privately.
Guangjingin has a good reputation, but its lintel is unexpectedly simple. The solid wooden door opens to the mountain road, and hundreds of red-leaf trees are planted on both sides. It is late autumn, and the red leaves are everywhere, and the scenery is elegant and quiet.
Yiyin couldn't help but sigh.
"What a great maple hunt."
Master Jueshu smiled.
"Jingguangyuan was built in imitation of a place where people practiced mountain cultivation in the Tang Dynasty. It seems simple, but in fact it is full of learning.
A hundred steps ahead of this Hongye Mountain Road is the Treasure Pavilion. The storage of treasures in the pavilion is an eye-opener for Tsudoden."
Yiyin smiled and said nothing. He somewhat understood the purpose of Master Jueshu bringing him here.
Previously, Enryakuji Temple had severely offended Yoshigoshi, an elder of the Genji family whose reputation was growing among the samurai family, because of Kojoin's arrogant words.
Those present at that time were not only the nuns of the Enryakuji Order, but also two shogunate samurai, Takeda Nobutora and Takaoka Keitomo. This matter had probably been reported back to Kyoto.
If this matter makes Yiyin feel grudged and disgusts the martial arts, it will not be a good thing for Tiantai Sect. Master Jueshu must find a way to remedy it.
The Tiantai Sect is not always strong. There are always times when you pretend to be a grandson when you go out to hang out. Especially in the long history of 800 years, the grandson really has not been less pretentious. The successive generations of sect leaders have great experience.
When he was the most powerful third, fourth and fifth generation shogunate in the Ashikaga shogunate, Hieizan pretended to be a grandson and was severely punished. Because he offended the shogunate, the Nedo Nakado was even burned once.
Now that Master Yama has been defeated and Mount Hiei is besieged, Lord Kakushu has to be even more careful.
Therefore, before resuming negotiations, she must first compensate Yoshiyin and let Yoshiyin calm down. After coming to the Jokoin Temple to view the scenery, she will probably offer treasures.
Yiyin is very interested in this.
Who knows how many good things are hidden in Enryakuji Temple, a thousand-year-old ancient temple. Yiyin has no mental barriers to take these things from the bald tycoon, and will not accept them for free.
Yiyin is very interested in opening his eyes. He is now considered one of the most powerful people in this island country, and he has experience in his previous life to support his eyesight.
Master Jueshu seems to be confident. What on earth makes her so confident? She thinks it will surprise Yiyin.
Facts have proved that Yiyin is still superficial. These nuns really have rich taste, height, and imagination of Yiyin.
Looking at the nine sets of armors of different colors in front of him, Yiyin's eyes widened.
This mountain treasure pavilion looks like a Buddhist temple. Yiyin and Master Jueshu walked into the hall together, while the others stayed outside.
Displayed in the main hall above is a set of large fiery red armors, gorgeous in style and fully equipped. There are also four sets of large armors on the left and right sides, for a total of nine sets.
The nine colors of armor, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, gray and black, were beyond Yi Yin's imagination. Even if the industry was developed in his previous life, he had never seen such valuables. It really looked like armor from an anime.
Yiyin couldn't help but stepped forward and stretched out his hand. He stopped in mid-air and turned his head to look at Master Jueshu in embarrassment.
Master Jueshu said with a smile on his face.
"You can taste it at Tsutado Hall as you like."
Yiyin sighed.
"The Wu family can't bear to see such precious armor, it makes the Master laugh."
After saying that, Yiyin stepped forward and touched the large red armor in the middle. It was made of layers of iron plates. It looked heavy, full of metal, visually thick and powerful, and extraordinary in its momentum.
The most surprising thing is that I don’t know how the iron sheet was dyed. The paint color is pure red and has a metallic-like reflection without any rust spots.
