In the streets of Chang'an City, a group of officials drove prisoner carts through on horseback, although four-wheeled carriages have become popular, but where will the prisoners enjoy the benefits of four-wheeled carriages, it is still a cage-like prison carriage.

"This prisoner turned out to be a monk!" A pedestrian suddenly exclaimed. Immediately, everyone was in an uproar and gathered one after another.

"This person is Tongji!" Many people thought of the content of the ink magazine and said suddenly.

Tongji was extremely sensitive, Cao Li did not answer, but quickly whipped Tongji to Chang'an County Yada Prison.

As the prisoner car crossed Chang'an City, the news of Tongji Fufa soon spread throughout Chang'an City, and the entire Chang'an City was in an uproar.

"I'll just say that Mokan will never wronged Tongji, how can a real monk do such a thing as usury." A citizen immediately changed his tune, not remembering the act of believing in the Great Mercy and Grace Temple and attacking the Mo Hospital.

"A murderous demon turned into a monk, I can't believe it, Tongji is really a scum of Buddhism, tarnishing the reputation of Buddhism!." Many believers still find it difficult to believe that there are murderous demons in the Great Mercy and Grace Temple.

"That is, what about the money I gave to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple?"

All of a sudden, the reputation of the entire Great Ci'en Temple fell into a trough, and it almost became the object of everyone's crusade, and the original peak incense was instantly empty, and even other temples in Chang'an City were also greatly affected.

However, just when everyone in the Great Ci'en Temple was shouting and beating, the news about the abbot of Ci'en crossing Tongji quietly spread in Chang'an City.

Buddhism crosses the murder demon, let it put down the butcher knife and convert to Buddhism, what a legendary story, and then Master Ci'en stepped down as the abbot of the Great Ci'en Temple, instead of the Tongji monk facing the wall for ten years, the news came, but also moved many believers to a mess.

"There is still such a story about Tongji entering Buddhism."

"Master Mercy is indeed a high-ranking monk, and he is really compassionate and profound."

With the word of mouth of believers, the reputation of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple has risen rapidly in a short period of time, and almost everyone has forgotten the fact that the abbot of Mercy Grace harbored Tongji, and they have praised Master Mercy Grace for his profound Buddhism.

Immediately followed up with Confucian magazines, popularized the deeds of the Buddha cutting meat and feeding eagles, and publicized the merits of Buddhism in transforming the world, and soon the reputation of Buddhism was even better.

"The methods of Buddhism are really extraordinary!" In the middle of the Mo Mansion, Merton sighed.

The Mo family naturally got the news for the first time, not only lamenting that the methods of the Buddhist family are extraordinary, but also lamenting that these believers are easy to deceive, and they can even fight back in this situation.

"What kind of mercy is just harboring criminals, but these officials of the Hate Criminal Department are all blind!" Han Zheng sneered, as a legalist, he hates violations of law and discipline the most, and the story of Master Ci'en influencing Tongji is indeed touching in the eyes of ordinary people, but in his opinion, it is harboring criminals, but they also need to be punished, but just because Ci'en is a person in Buddhism, almost everyone subconsciously ignores his crime of harboring and harboring.

Morton on the side couldn't help but smile bitterly, in Datang, if after committing a crime, almost no one will run, first, there is no way to lead, and there is no way to run far, unless it is a fallen grass, and secondly, Datang also implements the crime of joint sitting, if it really harbors a criminal, not only the person who harbors will be punished, but even his neighbor will sit together, so in this era, once someone is found harboring a criminal, they will report it as soon as possible, after all, the risk of harboring is too great.

"Brother Han, this is too worried, not everyone in the court is familiar with it, someone has already personally played Your Majesty, and Your Majesty has thoroughly investigated the affairs of Buddhism." Li Fuzi said.

"Oh! Who is this person? Han Zheng asked, he had served as a doctor of law in Guozijian for many years, and most of the officials in the court and China knew him, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed to hear that an official was like-minded with him.

"Fu Yi!" Li Fuzi replied.

Han Zheng suddenly heard this, revealing an expression that was not surprising.

Merton's heart moved, and he asked: "Could it be that Fu Yi, the former Taishi Ling who has repeatedly asked the imperial court to ban the Buddha." ”

About Fu Yi's name in the early Tang Dynasty is a big name, this person has repeatedly written to the disadvantages of the Buddhist family, asked the court to ban Buddhist temples, forced monks to return to the world, is simply an anti-Buddhist fighter, the Tang Dynasty later opposed Buddhism Liu Yuxi and Liu Zongyuan were influenced by him.

"Yes, this is the person." Li Fuzi said proudly.

Speaking of which, Fu Yi is also a Confucian person, but he has an extremely paranoid personality and can't get along with the Buddhists.

It's a pity that although Fu Yi has repeatedly banned the Buddha, but the ministers of the court and the central government believe in Buddhism quite a lot, and he has repeatedly returned in vain, and now the battle between the Legalists and the Buddhists suddenly broke out, which made Fu Yi see the opportunity to ban the Buddha again.

"Master Fu is really insightful!" Han Zheng was slightly disappointed, although Fu Yi stated this matter, it was not to maintain the fairness of the Tang Dynasty, but for his own idea of banning Buddhism.

"It seems that Confucianism and Buddhism are not so like-minded!" Merton laughed.

Confucianism pays attention to education, advocating the rule of man, which is very consistent with the influence of Buddhism. But I didn't expect that now Buddhism and Confucianism are on the same page.

Li Fuzi sneered: "There are many schools of Confucianism nowadays, even the Confucian family does not dare to say that they dominate Confucianism, let alone a small Confucian journal. ”

"Then let's see how the Buddha reacts this time!" Merton looked like he was watching a good show.

"So this time, which side is Mokan on?" Li Fuzi asked, although he is friends with Fu Yi, if he rashly stands on Fu Yi's side, I am afraid that he will drag down the Mo family, which is an outsider's business after all.

Merton said without hesitation: "The most basic function of the ink magazine is to report the news truthfully, if you don't even dare to report this, that is the sorrow of the ink magazine, besides, the more the reasoning is clearer, I believe that justice is in the hearts of the people." ”

From the very beginning, the evil deeds of the Zhao couple and the Tongji monks were truthfully reported, and Fu Yi's ban on Buddha was also a big news, and the ink magazine naturally would not let it go, and if the ink magazine could not do this, I am afraid that it would soon lose the hearts of the people.

"The old man understands!" Li Fuzi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Fu Yi asked the ink magazine to report in order to expand his influence, he did not agree, but came to test it, the tone of the Mo family, fortunately, Mo Dun really did not disappoint him.

With the news of Fu Yi's ban on Buddhism, Chang'an City was in an uproar again, and in just one month, the reputation of Buddhism was once again like a roller coaster, rising and falling, and Buddhism suddenly became the focus of the world and was pushed to the forefront.
