At this moment, Zhu Chongba was not anxious at all. Although the final conclusion had not yet come out, Zhu Chongba had generally made arrangements in his heart, because Zhu Chongba had already begun to arrange people to work. These arrangements by Zhu Chongba People are very reliable people.

In Zhu Chongba's view, those monks who do not participate in any sect are the real monks. To be honest, other people are no different from secular people, but they are not bad people, just secular people.

At this time, Zhu Chongba suddenly smiled bitterly, because he was also a layman! If it weren't for the fact that there was no food at home and he came to Huangjue Temple in order to survive, that's how he became a monk at the beginning, and then the same is true for others. Everyone is a layman. It would be right if Zhu Chongba treats them as laypeople. , as an eminent monk, that means you are going in the wrong direction.

In fact, Zhu Chongba thinks that this group of people is also easy to get along with. As long as they eat better than they do now, wear warm clothes, and have hope, that is enough. Other things are not important. With these two weapons, Zhu Chongba is confident that he can handle everyone. Of course, what Zhu Chongba is thinking about now is the so-called strategic things, that is, strategically defying all difficulties. But Zhu Chongba is not stupid. Specifically, If they were to be convinced, Zhu Zhongba still needed to use his brain.

"Master Rujing, I have investigated and understood that the situation here is like this..." After Xiaochun finished speaking, Zhu Chongba nodded, "Xiaochun, you lead these people to work. They know the terrain here very well. Here are the drawings, take a look at them first! By the way, when things here get underway, you have to go back to Huangjue Temple often to see what’s going on there, and then tell me, go ahead!”

Taking charge of a temple is actually about the same difficulty as taking charge of a county government. In terms of complexity, it is more difficult to manage than a county government, because after all, everyone in the county government has to obey the county magistrate. But here, Everyone is very unfamiliar with Zhu Chongba, and some people hope that he came here just to kill the old abbot of Baoen Temple.

If Zhu Chongba fulfills the wishes of this group of people and kills all the old abbot of Baoen Temple, then the day will not be far when Zhu Chongba will be ignored. In fact, this is what Zhu Chongba himself thinks. If it is In that case, Zhu Chongba felt that he was not far from death.

Therefore, Zhu Chongba took the third path, which is that you two factions can fight overtly and secretly as much as you want, but don't let Zhu Chongba encounter him, otherwise, Zhu Chongba will not be lenient.

In fact, Zhu Chongba really wanted to do one thing in his heart right now, which was to enforce the temple rules. Why didn't Zhu Chongba strictly enforce the temple rules in Huangjue Temple? This question is very easy to answer, that is, there are too few people in Huangjue Temple. If Zhu Chongba strictly enforces the temple rules, there will probably be no people left. Isn’t the old saying very good? When the water is extremely clear, there are no fish; when people observe it, there are no disciples.

But the situation here at Baoen Temple is different. There are many monks here. Even if Zhu Chongba followed the temple rules and went to dozens of monks, it would not be a big deal. It is different if he has the capital.

Because Zhu Chongba had such an idea, he had a kind of expectation, that is, he was looking forward to a monk violating the temple rules. One day in the Main Hall, Zhu Chongba recited all the temple rules of Baoen Temple in front of everyone. Once again, what Zhu Chongba said verbally was to lead everyone to learn the temple rules so that everyone would not violate the temple rules. In fact, it was Zhu Chongba himself who was familiar with the temple rules of Baoen Temple. It has to be said that Baoen Temple is a big temple. , he has a great spirit in doing things, and the rules of this temple are very high-level.

Let's put it this way, the same thing can have many different explanations, and the punishment for each explanation is also different. In this way, for the abbot, this is simply the best way to attack his opponent! And it is legitimately named after the temple regulations.

In his heart, Zhu Chongba really admired the monk who made the temple rules. If such a person became an official, then ordinary people would be sentenced and would not know what was going on. It would be really terrible. , but Zhu Chongba does not want to abolish this temple rule yet. He wants to see how the deacon monks of Baoen Temple will enforce the temple rules if someone violates the temple rules.

In order to maintain the order and stability of Baoen Temple, Zhu Chongba did not adjust the deacon monks, because these people, perhaps because of their many years of service as deacon monks, told the truth every time they told lies and acted strictly in accordance with the abbot's decree. , they belong to no one, they are the embodiment of temple rules.

The most important thing is the person who explains the temple rules. This person is the most powerful. In Baoen Temple, there is a council of elders. There are eleven monks in it. They are the adjudicators. It turns out that Zhu Chongba did not enter the leadership of Baoen Temple. , the old abbot is relatively powerful and occupies the majority of seats, but now that Zhu Chongba has entered, he has become twelve elders.

Moreover, the original middle forces will definitely re-choose the objects they are attached to. If Zhu Chongba performs well, these people will listen to Zhu Chongba. If Zhu Chongba does not do something that satisfies them, they will definitely Have other ideas.

Regarding such things, Zhu Chongba really understands better than anyone else that this is the Jianghu! Perhaps it was because Zhu Chongba understood so well that he suddenly sympathized with these two groups of people, because they were both right and united for their own interests. Even if the Buddha knew about it, he would not say anything. After all, These are all his disciples!

"Master Rujing! Now a disciple Yuanjue has violated the temple rules. Please give Master Rujing a decree!" The deacon monk said to Zhu Chongbaping, "Submit it to the elders' meeting for decision. This master will convene an elders' meeting immediately!"

Baoen Temple has not held an elders' meeting for a long time, because these are formal regulations. Since the old abbot has gained absolute power, all matters are decided by the old abbot directly issuing decrees, and the deacons and monks immediately implement them. No words were spoken. .

But after Zhu Chongba came, things changed, and a meeting of elders was actually going to be held. This made the group of elders who were overwhelmed and breathless suddenly felt magically refreshed, and they immediately arrived at the place where the meeting of elders was held. , even walked faster than Zhu Chongba and arrived earlier.

In fact, there is a bit of history here, which Zhu Chongba didn't know. It turned out that Baoen Temple had a disciplinary academy. Later, the head of the disciplinary academy did not listen to the old abbot. Later, the disciplinary academy was canceled by the old abbot. In order to show that he had no He gave up, so he established a presbytery with the characteristics of Baoen Temple.
