Chapter 47 What is the Reference

Daming Palace, the ministers from the construction of the Fumen entered, to the hundred officials to miss the courtyard, waiting for the queen of heaven and the emperor to come to the court, a group of high-ranking officials wearing purple robes, into the door to rest, low-grade court officials sit around the porch, the palace eunuch carrying a teapot to run around the door, pour tea kung fu, whisper to the good court officials to reveal the news, not a moment, in the palace some roots of the civil and military ministers, on the general knowledge of what happened last night and this morning.

The atmosphere of the hospital became delicate, the whispered conversation and laughter came to an abrupt end, and the big guy who learned the inside story silently thought about his thoughts, knowing that the news was not the point, the focus was on how to use the news and how to decide the action.

Most of them don't know why, they can only quietly observe the words and looks, waiting for their respective superiors and backers to show them, and those with low status and no one can only force themselves to press the panic in their hearts, look left and right, and always be ready to follow the crowd.

The pearl curtain rolls, the cash on the golden hall, the phoenix feather fan opens, the treasure chariot stops in front of the white jade steps, the faint net whip rings three times, and the layers of civil and military are in full force.

"The Queen of Heaven ascends to the dynasty" The shrill voice of the eunuch resounded in the clouds, and the ministers stepped on the red carpet of the Xuanzheng Hall and rushed in.

"The ministers wait to meet the queen of heaven" The ministers bowed down violently, Emperor Ruizong didn't know where he was unwell, and he never appeared in the court.

Empress Wu also responded with an empty salute, waiting for the monarch and ministers to settle down, not as usual to order the prime minister to ask about the government, and opened his mouth, his tone was quite uneven, "I look at the world's avenue, Confucianism and Taoism explain the three families, and they are not contradictory, but there are many vulgar things and mediocre people disturbing themselves, and they must be divided into high and low, and they will fight for it, why do they affect the pond fish?" Hanlin bachelor power policy, young and talented, people outside the ability, but upright, said some impartial words, and was suddenly persecuted, what is your intention? ”

The ministers left the couch and fell to the ground, quite hesitant, "the ministers are guilty, and the queen of heaven is angry" The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, asked them what the Confucian ministers were about, the black cauldron was bright, and they were restless, listening to the voice of the queen of heaven, and the right to consult the Buddhist scriptures and vomit blood, it seemed that there was something else?

"Let's wait and see the weather" everyone unanimously gave up the established policy.

"The power policy is also useless, pedantic and paranoid, and someone persecuts, so you must distinguish the ugly and ugly, consult the Taoist Buddhist scriptures, and don't even want your life. Empress Wu continued to vent her anger, "Spread the decree, dismiss the Quan Ce Hanlin Bachelor, and order the Northern Ya Qianqi to go to the Eastern Capital on the same day, led by him, and the civil official can't do it, so he will also go to be his military attaché, from now on, Quan Ce will not be allowed to read the Taoist Buddhist scriptures, and he will be beheaded in violation of the order."

The words landed, Empress Wu Fengyan was furious, the lightning and thunder were still roaring, and the ministers of the old fritters had calmed down, this was a clear and depreciating and implicit compliment, a thousand cavalry generals, on the fourth grade, the power policy angered the queen of heaven, but he was able to be promoted to two grades, this matter must be unusual.

"The minister is fortunate to be at the scene, I heard that the general only envied the mandarin duck and did not envy the fairy sentence, but unfortunately the general was exhausted at that time, and did not get the whole poem, which was a pity" Su Wei unexpectedly became a pioneer, seemingly exposed, but in fact, it was reversed black and white, blocking the mouths of the people, not only conforming to the meaning of the queen of heaven, but also helping the younger generations, Su Wei has never been so reasonable.

"Hmph, my heart is not strong, in the end it is just a naughty boy" Empress Wu flicked the sleeves of her robe, determined the nature of the matter, and quickly switched the channel without waiting for the ministers to react, "Cen Xiang, Anxi Du Tang Xiu heard that there is a vassal in Tubo who intends to return to Wanghua, what are the details?" What should I do? ”

Cen Changqian was still digesting some huge amount of information, and was stunned for a while, and quickly got up and came to the center of the main hall, "The queen of heaven, in the southwest of Tubo, there are a number of Wuman Baiman, covering a vast area, the mountains are vertical and horizontal, and they have always surrendered to Tubo, and in the land of Jianchuan today, there is a tribe, called Langqiong Zhao, whose chieftain has submitted letters and sacrifices many times in the past, and is willing to ...... for the Tang Dynasty."

The Xuanzheng Palace has entered the right track of political discussion, the militaristic affairs are piled up one after another, the senior officials talk eloquently, the officials picket and impeach, and each performs its own responsibility, however, in everyone's heart, there are huge doubts, why did the power policy incident flip?

Before the court dispersed, the officials left the palace in twos and threes, and each returned to the government office, but heard that another major incident had happened in Chang'an.

The abbot of Ximing Temple, the first seat of the Precept Institute and the head of the Ten Yuan, came forward together to publicly announce the removal of Hui Fan's monk status, the withdrawal of the Three Treasures, and the transmission of the treasures of the Four Directions of Buddhism, on the grounds of committing the three precepts of hatred, lust and greed, not practicing the Dharma, and disrespecting the outside.

Buddhism took the lead in acting, endorsing the rhetoric of the Empress Wu, Taoism followed, the Taoist temple was full of peach blossoms in the Xuandu Temple, announced the expulsion of the deacon Sima Qi from the scripture hall, and ordered to go down the mountain to expel him, and he must not regain his claim to be a Taoist, Sima Qi is the son of the Taoist master Sima Chengzhen, and his status is not high, and he is used as a scapegoat, and his sincerity is more than that of Buddhism.

As a result, the incident fermented, and Wei Yuanzhong, the Luoyang Ling, who debated Buddhism with Quan Ce, and Zheng Huairen, the Duke of Xingyang, who was embarrassed by the topic of Buddhism within the high walls, played a plea for guilt.

Wu Sansi, who is good at patting horses and greeting people, even played a concert to implore the queen of heaven to confer the title of god for Quan Ce, in order to calm his soul and help him recover.

At this point, the persecution of Buddhism, the right to consult the Taoist scriptures at the same time, vomiting blood and dying, has become an ironclad fact, there is no doubt.

Tianguan Shangshu Wu Chenghe's mansion, Wu Chengsi waved the family stick with both hands and hit Wu Yanxiu's buttocks hard, Wu Yanxiu didn't stiffen this time, and screamed miserably.

Another forty sticks went down, Wu Yanxiu's clothes were red and his breath was dying, and the two healthy servants carried him back to the main hall study, retreated, and covered the doors and windows one by one.

Only father and son were left in the study, and Wu Yanxiu jumped up, "Father, my aunt and grandmother are crazy and crazy......"

"Snap" slapped Wu Yanxiu in the face, making him look at the stars, full of grievances, Quan Ce angered his aunt and grandmother, and the news that he was going to be arrested was given to him by his father, and he went to arrest people at the behest of his aunt and grandmother, but now he wants to pretend to be punished by the family law, calm his aunt's anger, and give Quan Ce an explanation, what a shit logic, it is really suffocating.

"Tell me what happened in front of Princess Yiyang's mansion that day, don't miss a word" Wu Chengsi sat on the stool and closed his eyes.

Wu Yanxiu didn't dare to stab again, originally repeated it, Wu Chengsi listened to it, and combined with the details of the banquet in Princess Taiping's mansion, he gradually deduced, Quan Ce somehow resisted Hui Fan, wrote poems to suppress, knew that he was in trouble, and fled to the Eastern Capital to seek refuge from Xue Huaiyi.

"Scriptures?" Wu Chenghe's eyes lit up slightly, yes, the key is set on the scriptures, what kind of scriptures will make his aunt not only not blame him, but also protect him in every way?

Princess Taiping's Mansion, dressed exactly the same, like twin jade slaves and incense slaves, knelt on the ground, Princess Taiping was furious, "I don't know this, I don't know that, what is the use of this palace raising you?" ”

"Your Highness, Master Quan, General Quan, maybe it's really vomiting blood and dying?" During the period of the jade slave period, Ai Ai was worried.

"Your Highness, the power policy may have already been laid out, and there are capable people, everything is done step by step, and there are no flaws" Xiangnu frowned, calmly looking for the reason.

Princess Taiping saw that the two were very different, and she was lazy, "That's it, the queen mother will be tomorrow, she will act like this, she has her own reasons, and in a few days, the truth will eventually be revealed."

"The order goes down, from now on, without the order of the palace, all monks are not allowed to enter the palace"
