239: A big problem

Loyalty is precious, but it is scarce.

What's more, the world has been in strife for nearly a hundred years, and the city has changed several times into the king's flag, as long as the army does not come to break the house, does not come to grab food, and does not come to harm their own girls, we will raise our hands to welcome the king.

If it is ruled by inaction, after Qin Yue enters Chang'an, he can sing and dance to promote peace, and celebrate peace with the people of Shishu.

This is since the Tang Dynasty, the army into Chang'an is the most peaceful one, the damage can not be counted, really to count, probably to be counted on the head of the pseudo-Song Dynasty, the city outside the digging of seven pits and eight pits, the city also demolished many dwellings, used to place large artillery trucks, the people resentment is quite big.

Fortunately, because of Song Jiong's embarrassment and escape, the people in the city successfully escaped the war. Fu Yin Du once put the black pot on Hu Yanzan's head, patted his ass and walked, which saved a lot of things.

And with the parity of grain, salt and Zhongyuan Tongbao in Xiqin, after the implementation of the Huimin three-plate axe, the anger in the market suddenly broke out.

Qin Yue saw that the people's hearts were available, so he simply launched the work of the city's sanitation management, firstly, because he was so clean, he couldn't stand the dirty and messy phenomenon, and secondly, he also found something to do for the idlers in this cold winter.

As a result, the dry is vigorous.

Remembering the south of the Yangtze River, the royal driving line.

The name of this villa was given by Qin Yue, it was originally called Retreat Hall, Li Hongyi is very suitable for his own use, but Qin Yue is too twilight to use, the word is Cheng Shen's title, the pen is strong and round, and the momentum is solemn and majestic, Qin Yue is not angry, and said: "Remembering Jiangnan, you can't write elegantly, smarter, look at your words, which point matches this exquisite environment." ”

Cheng Shen said solemnly: "The royal law should be rigorous. ”

As soon as Cheng Shen was serious, Qin Yue had nothing to say, this good scholar, he looked as gentle as jade, he had the same virtue as that lazy guy in his bones, and his brothers all admitted that he was dead, once he was more serious, the nine cows would not be able to pull it back.

The discussion in the hall is relatively large, and it is a big hidden danger involving faith, and if you are not careful, there may be a big problem.

Song brothers worship Buddha, the first one, shaved the child line 8,000 people in one breath, these monks, most of them are concentrated in a large place, Jingzhao Mansion is one of the five mansions, a few years ago, more than 60 temples were built outside the city in one breath, covering a wide area, the number is so large, it is jaw-dropping.

And Song Jiong just ascended the throne, he made a big oath to promote Buddhism, made a promise to add 180,000 degrees of spies, monks from all over the country suddenly sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, markets, the countryside, in the mansion of the high gate, in ordinary villages, everywhere you can see the monks who are dervish.

The construction of this Buddhist temple is the first major event that costs money, and it is similar to repairing the palace.

Occupy a large area, the pillar should be thick, the house should be majestic, the weather should be solemn, in addition, there is a tall Buddha statue, even if it is made of mud tire wood plastic, it is also coated with gold powder, the cost is huge, superhuman imagination.

These, it's good to say, good men and women eat simple food and worship the Buddha, which is a merit and a good deed, and the court should not interfere.

But there are three things that are very related to the national economy and people's livelihood.

One is copper and iron resources, it is said that many temples have begun to secretly destroy copper statues, the most poor also have to be cast in iron, and there are very few real mud tires.

The second is the temple property of Terada, there are more offerings, the monks are not hungry, but the people have less arable land.

The third is tax exemption and exemption, monks, all five aggregates are empty, what do you take to pay taxes, and how do you serve? There is still a big leak to drill in this, which is also the fundamental reason why the wealthy and wealthy have the best to build temples.

Because of these three points, Shimen had a fight with the imperial court.

This kind of bad behavior that seriously endangers the country's finances, Song Jiuzhong had a painful decision during his reign, and the ban on the destruction of bronze statues, the ban on iron casting floating temples and Buddha statues and other government decrees were introduced one after another, but there was no ban on temple property, not that he did not understand, but he understood too much, and encouraged the nobles of the court to do more such things.

Wealth moves people's hearts, and if there is too much money, the will will will not be strong, which is conducive to the rule of the country.

Therefore, when you open the history books, you will find that during the period of the Song brothers, there were countless records of honoring Buddha, believing in Buddhism, building temples, and building temples.

For example, Han Chongyun, when he was in charge of Anyang, almost forced the people to rebel because of the great construction of Buddhist temples.

For example, the privy envoy Li Chongju, the rice monk to 700,000, the statue to build a temple is especially many. This 700,000 is the real number, how to count it, "The History of the Great Song Dynasty Monks" has a record, a meal monk, in a hundred people, you can imagine the same, how much money was spent.

The pseudo-Song Dynasty opened vigorously without a bottom line, which pleased the people in the Liberation Sect, but added countless troubles to Qin Yue.

Crossing things have happened, and some mysterious things have some awe.

In fact, Fengxiang Mansion also has a Buddhist temple, but it is far less than Jingzhao Mansion, so he selectively ignored it, but now he has to force himself to face it.

"Let's discuss it, how to deal with it."

Ding Yuzhou said: "We must stop this crooked wind, I think that the former Zhou Jun Law is too harsh, but the pseudo-Song Dynasty is too wide, how about we take a middle degree?" ”

Shen Bingli said: "The week before, in addition to the temples, each county temple monks and nuns can only stay one, now there are ten counties in Jingzhao Mansion, ten nunnery monasteries each, plus nine temples, there are twenty-nine, in fact, there are a lot, but now the number has exceeded hundreds, how much is the median value appropriate, fifty?" Sixty? ”

Qin Yue has rigid requirements for the meeting, the words must be sharp, the tip of the needle to the wheat can touch the spark, if anyone is polite, will be harshly criticized, saying that the Tartars of the grassland know the truth of "painting ashes", we should follow such rules, so all the small range of deliberations, the monarch and the minister never speak politely.

Ding Yuzhou said: "The reason is this reason, but the pseudo-Song Dynasty has put this scale too wide, and then bring it back, but it will be difficult, a certain meaning: whether it is fifty or sixty, it is better than hundreds, step by step." ”

Zeng Wu was peeling oranges, with Qin Yue as an example, these courtiers were also a little casual, and when they heard the words, they put the oranges away, and snorted coldly: "This good old man can't do it, there are not too many stupid men and fools in this world, if you have time, the release door will be like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, and then it will be even more impossible to end, if you really want to collect it, one size fits all." ”

"How?"

"Simple, directly follow the law of the previous Zhou, and only one of the nunnery monasteries in each county can be left, and the rest will be destroyed."

Cheng Shen interjected: "It's always a pity to destroy it, the location is suitable, and it can be used as a academy." ”

Zeng Wu stroked his palms and laughed: "Just wait for your words, Shi Xing, you have to speak when you should speak, the Son of Heaven is close to the minister, and it is okay to be cautious in your words and deeds." ”

Cheng Shen lazily ignored it, if it weren't for Jiulang's good temperament, this should be said in reverse.

Shen Bingli said: "The temple can be converted to other ways, and the temple property can also be diverted for civilian use, but what about those monks who have shaved their heads, they must not be left homeless, according to a certain investigation, there are many true believers and devout ascetics." ”

"It's customary to order it."

"I don't know how many people have only been shaved for a few months."

"That's simpler, the faith is not strong."

"It's not easy to believe."

"Then Qiu Yan, you have a good strategy."

"No, Clumsy Jing also believes in Buddhism, worships incense every day, and the Buddhist hall is clean without a trace of dust."

“……”

The topic gradually diverged, from Buddhist beliefs to the secret of the Buddha, from the great monks to self-mutilation and penance, the topic became farther and farther, and Cheng Shen couldn't help but remind again: "Your Majesty." ”

Qin Yue had been drinking tea quietly and did not speak, and after being reminded by Cheng Shen, he smiled bitterly: "You can't just talk about the Shimen because I am from the Taoist Sect, the old Chen Jian is still waiting for my Huashan appointment." ”

Zeng Wu frowned: "Do you really want to worship the Tao or be relieved?" ”

"That's not it, for me, the Buddha's Gate, the Daomen, as long as it is conducive to the stability of the people's livelihood and the peace of society, are all good teachings, and they are all worthy of support, because people must have a sense of awe, have a sense of good and evil, and cannot be without faith.

A few years ago, I did do something for Daomen, but it was very insignificant, just to let the Taoist doctrine have a relatively complete system, and also let my Chinese myths and legends have a clear lineage.

In fact, in this regard, Shimen has done better, although Buddhism comes from the Western Regions, but the development so far, has formed a Buddhist culture with Chinese characteristics, for this, many sages have paid countless sweats, and in the persuasion of the good and the evil, have also made countless great merits.

Therefore, in my eyes, whether it is the Liberation Gate or the Dao Gate, they are all treated as one.

However, because the teachings of the two are different, the direction of development is also different, from the current situation, the Buddha Gate is somewhat overflowing, the sea is inclusive, and the mud and sand are all down, which has also caused the mixed situation of the Buddha Gate, in this regard, not only the state should be cautious, but also the Buddha itself should be cautious and reflect.

In this case, don't make a decision on this matter first, set a date, convene the great sages of the Liberation Sect, and have a meeting to see what they say. ”

"Good."
