Chapter 1408: Susa has a long-term plan
Thinking of this, Qingxuzi finally made up his mind.
"Poor Dao stayed, but it's too boring to be a deacon in this firearms camp all the time, why don't you assign some other messengers to Poor Dao?"
Asking in his mouth, his eyes also looked at Qin Jin without blinking, waiting for Qin Jin's answer.
Hearing this, Qin Jin smiled, of course he knew what idea was turning in Qing Xuzi's head, was he really tired of being the deacon of this firearms battalion? Naturally not, the person who did it was just an official.
This can be regarded as the only one in the Shenwu Army, and there has never been anyone who dares to openly ask for an official position in front of Qin Jin.
But Qin Jin couldn't be angry with this bull-nosed old Taoist, in fact, Qingxuzi was still a registered Taoist priest, and according to military law, he did not have any duties in the Shenwu Army, and he was responsible for all the affairs of the firearms battalion in the name of the deacon.
According to the merits accumulated by Qing Xuzi, it is enough to seal the founding candidate.
However, even though Qin Jin had already thought of a place for him, he still intended to hang his appetite.
"Qin does intend to make the real person a local official in Persia, but there are many inconveniences for the monks, if the real person is willing to do it, why not return the vulgar?"
"Vulgar?"
Suddenly, Qingxuzi's eyes widened, and even the few goatees on his mouth stood up.
"Poor Dao once made a great wish before the Sanqing patriarch, and now the grand wish has not been realized, the prime minister is going to cut off the root of the poor Dao, no, isn't this the poor Dao to the pit retreat?
Qingxuzi is not a fuel-efficient lamp, first he screamed a lot, and then suddenly turned the ball and kicked the ball back to Qin Jin.
Qin Jin was stunned for a moment when asked, and then nodded:
"Now is the time to employ people, if a real person is willing to make such a big sacrifice for the court, Qin Jin is too late to be happy, how can he be reluctant?"
Qingxuzi immediately slapped his thigh, smashed his mouth and said:
"Okay, it's decided, report to the Sanqing Patriarch another day, and return the customs for the great cause of the imperial court!"
"It's not necessary to be vulgar, and the imperial court has not clearly stipulated that monks are not allowed to be officials, it is nothing more than that the rules of their respective religions are restricted, and it has become a common practice over time, and it doesn't hurt to break the convention this time!"
In Qin Jin's view, it was more useful for Qingxuzi to stay in the sect than to return to the vulgar.
The three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in the Tang Dynasty had a profound influence on the Chinese nation, and the three have long been blended and absorbed by each other in the evolution of nearly a thousand years. Now that the Tang Dynasty wants to run Persia and other places, these religious cultures naturally have to keep up.
Qing Xuzi's brain also turned really fast, and he immediately understood the deep meaning.
"Does the prime minister have to spread Taoism here?"
Qin Jin smiled:
"Then it depends on the real person's ability!"
Qing Xuzi was ashamed and patted his chest to reassure.
"The tongue of the poor is not rotten, the dead can say that they are alive, preaching and preaching, a piece of cake!"
At this point, he changed the conversation again and made a request.
"In order to get twice the result with half the effort, please also ask the prime minister to ban the Great Food Sect and the Persian Sect first, well, the Persian Religion may be slowed down, the Great Food Sect must be banned, the Great Food Sect will not be eliminated for a day, and the influence of the Black Clothes and Great Food on Persia and other places will not be reduced for a day. ”
In this regard, Qin Jin has long had an idea.
"The prohibition of religion has never been done by the imperial court in Chang'an, and it will not be in Persia!"
Before he could finish speaking, Qingxuzi pursed his lips.
"When the prime minister was in Chang'an, didn't he accept the fifth minister's strategy of destroying the Buddha, why did he come here and open up to the Great Food Sect Network?"
At the beginning, the Buddha was destroyed in Chang'an, and it was for the land and the population. One hundred years after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, especially during the sixty or seventy years of Empress Wu's reign and Xuanzong's rule, the development of Buddhism was no longer just a religion.
Moreover, the land of the temple does not need to pay taxes, and those who have lost their Yongye fields due to the war, and the people who depend on the temple will naturally no longer pay a penny or a grain of grain to the imperial court.
In fact, the major Buddhist temples have long been the largest landlords, and they are also the kind of big landowners who do not pay taxes, and have all kinds of privileges that people in the world do not have. In the long run, it is as if there are countless parasites parasitic in the belly of the Tang Empire.
At the time of the Anshi Rebellion, the major Buddhist temples did not miss the various cares in the past and extended a helping hand to the imperial court, but took advantage of the fire to rob, further annexed the ownerless land, and hid the good family Dingkou......
If left unchecked, I'm afraid the country's capital will be shaken.
Fifth Qi's proposal to exterminate Buddhism is actually not aimed at religion at all, but only in the hope that the newly restored country will return to the normal track.
Qin Jin naturally would not argue or explain these problems with Qing Xuzi.
There are different policies for different places, such as here, he will never follow in the footsteps of the big food and ban religion by collecting a poll tax.
In other words, he doesn't tell people what not to do, but lets everyone know what to do in order to be beneficial.
"Soon a ban will be issued, and those who serve in the official office are not allowed to believe in the Great Food Sect, the black-clothed Great Food is the great enemy of the imperial court, so it is natural to take strict precautions, and the ordinary people are not bound by this order!"
Qing Xuzi clasped his palms together and said with a smile:
"This plan is very good, those who intend to drill up the camp, naturally have to accept the guidance, this top-down influence, like a spring breeze moisturizing things, silent!"
"Come on, don't just talk about sycophants, there are too many newly conquered Persian lands, and the plan is to divide four states under the satrap, and you will be the envoy of one state. Which state you will be in charge of depends on your wishes. ”
Qingxuzi was stunned again, he never expected that he would actually be a festival envoy, and he didn't need to be vulgar.
"The prime minister isn't coaxing the poor anymore, right?"
He was joking at the beginning, and he had always been used to being poor, even in front of Qin Jin, he would come as soon as he opened his mouth, and what did he think of it actually came true.
Qin Jin Zhengse said:
"I just hate that there are not enough people to stay, but this is also a short period of urgency. Wait, after returning to Chang'an, we will select talents for this place, and formulate corresponding incentives to encourage scholars to go west, make meritorious contributions, and reimburse the imperial court. ”
The first half of the sentence was said to Qing Xuzi, and the second half had the meaning of talking to himself, and Qing Xuzi was stunned for a while.
It seems that the prime minister is going to be serious, and it is already very difficult for the imperial court to run the Western Regions, not to mention the western part of the Western Regions, which is 108,000 miles away from Chang'an......
