In the town in front of Miaoshinji Temple, a tall and strong monk with a beard suddenly appeared. This majestic man was also very brave. He had the appearance of a fierce general with tiger eyes and mustache, and he was paired with a bald head and nine heads. If you click on the ring scar, you will be like the flower monk Lu Zhishen who has shrunk to one size. This person is called Chaoshan Richeng. "Tan Yue, wait a moment! The poor monk sees that Tan Yue has a sky-facing bone on his forehead, and there is luminous light in his eyes, which can be said to be a sign of great fortune and great wealth! Let the poor monk tell Tan Yue's fortune!" The strong man went to the mountain to stop a man who was about to go to Miaoxin Temple. Pilgrims worshiping Buddha. This pilgrim was a resident of a nearby town. Suddenly he encountered a fierce-looking monk blocking his way. He was frightened and said, "Masterare you talking to me?" "Exactly!" Asayama Richeng nodded seriously. "Do I really have a noble appearance?" The pilgrim looked at Asayama Richeng in disbelief. The latter nodded cooperatively and added: "Not only do I have great fortune and great fortune, but I also have many children No! I want to take a closer look! Come and sit here, I am good at fortune telling and palmistry. Your Highness, Nizi Qingjiu, was the one who showed me your fortune when he was young. I believe I can¡¯t be wrong!¡± "Okay! Master, please take a closer look for me!" The pilgrim suddenly showed a troubled look: "It's just that I don't have much money with me. In addition to the two ounces of sesame oil for worshiping the Buddha, I only have 500 coins. What should I do?" Chaoshan Richeng's eyelids twitched, and then he showed an impeccable smile and said: "It doesn't matter, as long as Tan Yue is sincere, it doesn't matter whether he offers five hundred coins or five coins." "This is really embarrassing! I can only wait until next time. Make up for the money when you see the master again! "There are many monks like Asayama Nichijo. With the convenient passage between Shiga and Takashima prefectures, the influence of Myounji Temple can be seen in a few days. This spread to the entire Omi Kingdom. As the main force in the county, Takashima Nanato immediately converted to the Myoshinji sect, and several of them brought their relatives to Myoyunji Temple to worship the Buddha. The role of role models is huge. Not long after Kiragi and the lords of Takashima County visited Myounji Temple, the residents of Shiga and Takashima County showed signs of large-scale conversion to the Rinzai sect, and the people adjacent to Myoshinji Temple Within the Kenda clan, they quickly divided into several factions because of issues of faith. They opposed each other and had violent conflicts. It didn't take long for this group of people to cause riots among the Katada Ichikai clan. The so-called riots of the Ixiang Sect in Katian were a serious conflict between a group of disciples of the Ixiang Sect and believers of the Miaoyun Temple in Katian. The disciples of the Ixiang Sect attacked the Miaoyun Temple believers with very violent means and brutally killed several disciples. A man tried to resist the Miaoyun Temple believers. This incident caused an uproar and was regarded as a serious challenge to the authority of the Kira family. Kira Yoshitoki received the news as soon as possible and strictly ordered Omi to go out to arrest the suspect. It only took three days to complete the process of arrest, investigation, interrogation, judgment, and execution in the Kaneda area, along with the announcement of the verdict. , and also issued a ban on Yixiang Zong. He is showing to the world his strong intention to completely eliminate the influence of Yixiang Zong. This was beyond the expectations of many people. The Jiantian people were also confused and didn't know what to do. Because there were so many witnesses at the scene when the incident broke out, the Jiantian people couldn't deny it. They wanted to protest but couldn't give a reason. Moreover, The Tendai Sect believers within the Katada Sect were also watching them eagerly. If there was any trouble, they would definitely not mind at this juncture. They teamed up with the Kira family and the Miaoun Temple believers to uproot the Ichiko Sect's influence. Fortunately, someone thought of Ishiyama Honganji Temple. , this existence that usually doesn¡¯t care about or even shows hostility at all. But they were soon disappointed. Ishiyama Honganji's response to this incident was very ambiguous, which made many Ichichishu disciples in Omi dissatisfied. They had no choice but to leave Katada after the promulgation of the Ichichishu ban and ran to the east bank of Lake Biwa. Evacuated in Asai County. A small number of Yixiang sect believers who were unable to leave their homeland were also forced to ostensibly abandon their Yixiang sect belief and convert to Tiantai sect or Rinzai sect Myoshinji sect. Shortly afterwards, the Kentian congregation made a decision, first of all, to find Kuaichuan, the abbot of Miaoyunji sect. Shao Xi sincerely apologized to him and took on the responsibility for compensation for the families of the victims. Later, he asked the intermediary Kaikawa Shauki to surrender the Kira family, the leaders of the Kenta clan, Inokai Sado Mori Nobuho, and brought Baba Zenemon, Takeuchi Kuroemon, Ihaichiroemon, and Gose Saburoemon, Uchidenemon, Hatsuhachiroemon, Kimura Yasubei, Tsuji Hachibei and others presented oaths to Kira Yoshitoki and voluntarily joined the Kira Navy. As a result, a major hidden danger in Kitaomi River was completely eliminated. At the same time, after controlling the Yodogawa River, the Kira Navy completely controlled the west bank of Lake Biwa, becoming one of the best river naval forces in Kinki. Due to the impact of this incident, Myounji Temple suddenly became the largest power in Kenda, with more and more merchants coming and going, and even tended to compete with Kyoto and Sakai Town, because Kenda was located in another smaller port in the north of Sakamoto. , it is also the only way to Sakamoto and Tsuruga by land, and many people pass through it.During their business trips, they would stop at the gate of Kenda Myounji Temple to rest and worship the Buddha. Although Katsuda's status is getting higher and higher, the northward expansion strategy of Sakamoto Town is also regarded as the most important development link of the Kira family during the year. When inspecting the construction site of Sakamoto Castle Town, Hosokawa Fujitaka came over in a hurry with a stack of documents. , said: "It is estimated that the full implementation of the northward strategy will require 3,000 kan Yongle mon, which will be mainly used for the expansion of Katada Town and port facilities. At the same time, a total of 7,000 kan Yongle mon will be needed to coordinate with the northward expansion of Sakamoto Town. The construction period will last until the end of the year. ! In addition, the construction of Otsu Castle is also under preparation. It is expected to start construction after the autumn harvest. Together with the expansion of Otsu Town and the port, it is expected to cost 5,000 kanfu. " "One is 7,000 kan and the other is 5,000 kan. In the blink of an eye. Twelve thousand guan of Yongle money is gone? This is really a waste of money!" Kira Yoshiki said. He has no objection to such high expenses. Infrastructure construction is an indispensable link. The advantage of unified planning is that the development of each town is in step, and various institutions in the town are complete. With Shiga County from north to south, Kenta, Sakamoto, With the cooperation of the three major towns of Otsu, he is very confident that most of Omi's funds will be attracted here. Moreover, the construction of so many new towns is also to pave the way for attracting people. The new towns currently being built in Sakamoto are already booked by a long queue. Some of them are proletarian refugees, some are craftsmen from distant countries, and some are the remaining population attracted by the Kinai. There are three new towns that are being built one after another, and it will take less than half a year to attract tens of thousands of people waiting for resettlement. Population can bring taxes and taxes. The original population of Shiga Takashima County can no longer support larger-scale military service. In particular, the Otsu area was deprived of 2,000 men due to the impact of the Ichiku Incident, leaving the area facing The serious shortage of labor will have a huge impact on local agriculture if this dilemma is not resolved in time. The Kira family knew nothing about the upcoming crisis. Sakamoto Town's plan to advance northward was still proceeding in an orderly manner. Construction of Katada in the north and Otsu in the south also started at the same time. In early August, the entire Shiga County became a busy metropolitan area. More than 12,000 people were drafted into the construction site, accounting for almost one-eighth of the total population of Shiga County. Such large-scale infrastructure construction not only shocked the Rokkaku and Asai clans in Omi, but also shocked the Ashikaga Yoshitš of the shogunate. The topic in Kinai suddenly shifted from the battle between Miyoshi and Hatakeyama to the castle town of Kita Omi. Construction, many people are looking forward to what the new Shiga will look like. But he didn¡¯t know that doing so would hit a sore spot in Enliji Temple. Enliji Temple is located on Mount Hiei northwest of Sakamoto. Because of Enliji Temple¡¯s huge territory, there are three pagodas, sixteen valleys and two separate temples in the temple system. Among them, the East Pagoda governs the North Valley, East Valley, South Valley, West Valley, and Wudongsi Valley; the West Pagoda governs the East Valley, South Valley, Nanwei Valley, Beiwei Valley, and North Valley; Hengchuan governs the Xiangfang Valley, Liberation Valley, Jiexin Valley, Dusu Valley, and Prajna Valley. , Dinshi Valley, and other places are Heigu and Anzhu Valley respectively. Among them, the East Pagoda is the most important. The main hall of the East Pagoda is the fundamental nave. It is the successor to the Ichijoji Temple built by Zen Master Saicho, the founder of Enryaku-ji Temple. This can be regarded as the birthplace of Enryaku-ji Temple. Of course, unfortunately, it is the East Pagoda. The grains happen to be in Sakamoto, and the straight-line distance from Sakamoto Castle is less than two miles. The direct area of ??Enryaku Temple happens to be between Sakamoto and Katada. Since ancient times, this area has been regarded by Enryaku Temple as its sphere of influence. . From Enryakuji's point of view, when the Ashikaga Shogun's family came here to take refuge, it was Enryakuji who took his family in. Of course, the Rokkaku family also saw it this way, so the Ashikaga Shogun's family owed it to them, so they were ambitious during Kiragi's time. The expansion plan was quickly opposed by the monks in Enryaku Temple. They went to Prince Yao Zunbo, the head of the Tendai Tower, and asked him to issue a decree, ordering Kira Yoshitsune to immediately stop the expansion of the castle town, because if he did so, he would infringe upon Enryaku Temple. of authority. In the northeastern part of Katsuda, there is one of the eight scenic spots of Omi, "Kenta Rogan". Speaking of these eight scenic spots of Omi, it has a deep connection with the Konoe family. On August 13, the 9th year of the Meiji era, the guardian of Rokkaku Takayori was held in Omi. Under the warm reception, Konoe Masato, the minister of Kan Hakuzuo who was boating on Lake Biwa, composed eight Japanese songs based on the eight scenery of Omi. And this Katada Rakugan is talking about the scenery where Mangetsuji Temple Umido is located. This was originally the location of Kaimonsan Mangetsuji Temple of Rinzai Sect Daitokuji Temple. According to legend, this temple was a senior monk of the Tendai Sect of the Heian Period, known as the "Sixth Ancestor" The ancient temple founded by Zen Master Genshin was seized by the Daitokuji Temple in the Muromachi period. Afterwards, it experienced the Onin Rebellion and Honganji Rennyo's entry and exit, and gradually declined. At this time, only some dilapidated scenes were left in the Fumidang of Manwolsa Temple. A few sneaky people gathered in front of the Fumidang and whispered: "We must fight back!" "This cannot be tolerated! We must sue the leader. !¡± ¡°We must file a complaint!¡±??Where to seek justice! " Several people were filled with indignation and tried to come up with an idea. One of them, an old man who looked like the leader, coughed twice and said slowly: "No hurry! It¡¯s better to appeal to the seat leader first and request that this thief be punished! "
