Since the presence of Taoist monks in the villages and towns, the people are no longer so easily restless, and have become calm and kind. What Shi Bin hates the most is messing around, and once people can't communicate calmly and kindly, they will definitely mess around, and then speak ill of each other, and finally add fists and kicks.

Now the people have become calm and kind, even if there is a dispute, they will not add fists and kicks and speak ill of each other, which makes Shi Bin smile all over his face for three days.

In fact, Shi Bin himself is not a good-tempered person, and he often loses his temper, but he himself never reads books of Buddhism and Taoism. So while being happy, I was a little ashamed. The reason, of course, is 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you'. After thinking of this, Shi Bin felt that maybe he himself also had to learn some knowledge of Buddhism and Taoism, and it was uncomfortable to be coerced by Confucianism. What's more, ordinary people can become peaceful after listening to the lectures of monks and Taoists, how can he, the emperor, be left behind?

So he asked Xu Feng to get him several Taoist Buddhist works, "Tao Te Ching", "Wen Shi Jing", "Zhuangzi", "Diamond Sutra", "Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra" and "The Great Buddha Ding Shou Lengyan Sutra".

After all, these books are profound, and it will take a lot of effort to understand them for a while, so Shi Bin asked with some concern: "Xu Feng, do you think it's worth it for me to spend time reading these things?" Will it be a waste of time or even counterproductive? ”

"Emperor, it's certainly worth taking the time to read these books. These are all hand-me-down classics, and if you can understand them, you will definitely benefit them for life. What's more, the government is under the control of Wang San, Li Chao, Wang Yi and Li Shao, and there will definitely be no major incidents. If the emperor is worried, it is better to call the four of them to advise. ”

"It's not necessary, but it will make them think that I am worried that they will make a mistake and it will affect their mood."

"Emperor, I still have a way to work, so it's better to ask the prince to also participate in politics. The prince is not young, he should participate in politics, not to mention that the eagle always has a time to fly. ”

"There is always a time for the eagle to fly?" Shi Bin muttered, "The words are good, but I'm still not at ease, after all, he is too young, what if Wang San and they can't control it, so they will get into a big disaster?" ”

"The emperor doesn't have to worry, aren't there still two queens? What's more, the emperor will definitely not read these Buddhist and Taoist classics all day long, and his main energy will definitely be in the court. As long as you ask every once in a while, I believe that the prince will not make a big mistake. ”

After discussing with Xu Feng, Shi Bin finally made a decision to let Shi Yunpeng participate in politics as a 'servant'.

In this way, Shi Bin felt a lot more relaxed and happy, and it seems that decentralization also has the benefits of decentralization. is not so tired, but also makes life colorful, you can watch hundreds of classics and be influenced by it, or you can linger with Jia Ling and Sai Xishi. Jia Ling and Sai Xishi also like this kind of life very much, not only can they see Shi Bin every day, but they don't have to worry about something big to shake the world of the Shi family.

After reading the Taoist Buddhist classics for more than three months, Shi Bin felt that his temper was indeed much better, and he was no longer so irritable. Watching others arguing is like watching a few ignorant children arguing over a piece of candy, which is very childish and dismissive. He himself did not quarrel with Jia Ling and Sai Xishi again.

On this day, Shi Bin went to Jia Ling's Kunning Palace to rest, and said with a smile: "Xiaoling, what do you think of the current situation?" ”

"What's the situation?"

"Don't you feel too calm when we're not noisy or noisy?"

"You mean we're going to blush once a day, right?" Jia Ling looked at Shi Bin incredulously, obviously thinking that he was talking crazy.

"Of course I don't mean that, but actually..."

Seeing that Shi Bin couldn't speak clearly, Jia Ling simply asked Shi Bin to think clearly. She didn't think that Shi Bin would have nothing to do when she was full, and wanted to quarrel and play.

"I mean, if we can do this without arrogance, irritability, noise or noise, why can't ordinary people? Although they no longer speak ill of each other and add punches and kicks, they still often quarrel. There seem to be unfinished cases in the yamen. ”

"Really?"

"What are you lying to? This is what he told me when he asked Yun Peng a few days ago. He said that there have been almost no major cases in the past few months, and they are all small cases. It's precisely these small cases that give people headaches. Now the mind is active, 10,000 people and 10,000 ideas, so some cases are actually because of sectarian or doctrinal conflicts. ”

"It seems that this 'deposed

It also makes sense that Confucianism is respected by a hundred schools, and a 'foolish policy' restricts the mind, saves social turmoil, and affects the rule. Jia Ling nodded and said.

"Then should we go back to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's 'depose the Confucianism of the Hundred Schools'?" Sai Si Shih's voice came from outside the door.

"Of course not, Shih Tzu, that's going backwards." Shi Bin said with a smile, "Although that is good for rule, it is not good for society, if there is no fresh blood, we will soon decline." ”

"So what are you going to do? You can't let them quarrel over these sects and doctrines, it's ridiculous. Jia Ling smiled with some disdain.

I must admit that Jia Ling is right, it is ridiculous that a person has the energy to work and live well, but spends time arguing and fighting with sects and doctrines.

"Husband, the concubine thinks that we might as well directly issue a decree and tell the people of the world that if there is an unnecessary conflict because of their beliefs, they will be severely punished, so that they will not dare to make such nonsense again."

"Well, this will neither 'fool the people' nor affect social stability."

With such a decree issued, the government and the opposition calmed down again, and there were almost no more conflicts over sects and doctrines. But then another problem arose: many people had the idea of becoming a monk after listening to the lectures of Taoist monks. Even if I can't become a monk, I don't become so positive anymore, and I feel a little slack. This is something that Shi Bin didn't expect, he feels too helpless and ridiculous, how can he have trouble one after another, as if there is no time to finish?

I consulted with Jia Ling and them again and again, and watched various classics again and again, but I couldn't find a way to do it once and for all. This can make Shi Bin feel very painful.

Seeing Shi Bin's unhappiness, Xu Feng proposed to go to the nearby Sanqingguan to play, which could be regarded as relaxing. didn't want to stay in the palace in Luoyang anymore, and the Shannan Dao people also came to Luoyang, so Shi Bin immediately agreed.

In order not to let others know, Shi Bin still sneaked out of the palace, and the time was only a moment in the morning to arrive at Sanqingguan outside Luoyang City.

Seeing Shi Bin, a 'noble', Shannan Daoist felt very surprised, but he was still very calm, and his smile gave people a very comfortable feeling.

"Why did you come here?"

"Naturally, I want to ask the mage to solve my doubts."

"The nobleman has deep wisdom roots, in fact, as long as you read a few classics, you should be able to understand the deep meaning, and you don't have to find a poor way to solve your doubts." Shannan said very modestly.

"If it's an ordinary thing, I can solve my doubts by asking myself, but I feel that this matter can't be solved, so I come to bother the mage." Shi Bin said very sincerely.

Seeing that Shi Bin was so persistent, Shannan had no choice but to agree to solve Shi Bin's doubts. Shi Bin also expressed the unhappiness in his heart, especially emphasizing that he was quite serious, but there seemed to be endless troubles waiting for him.

After listening to Shi Bin's words, Shan Nan laughed and said, "Why do you bind yourself? ”

"Conceited?" Shi Bin misunderstood the meaning of Shannan Daoren, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Master, although I am not very modest, I am not conceited! ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. The nobleman misunderstood. The self-restraint that the poor Tao said is not the conceit that the noble man said. Poor means to be cocooned and self-bound. The reason why the nobles feel that there are endless troubles waiting for the nobles to solve is for no other reason, just because the nobles only have troublesome things in their eyes, and if there are more other things, they will not be so depressed. ”

"Master, I've been reading the Tao Te Ching, the Zhuangzi and the Diamond Sutra for the past few months, and it doesn't seem to be of much use except to make my temper better."

The noble person should have only read the literal meaning, and most of them did not understand the deep meaning. There has always been no mutual birth, difficulty and ease are mutually compatible, long and short are mutually exclusive, high and low are mutually beneficial, sound and sound are harmonious, and they follow each other successively. If you could understand the truth, you would not be so confused and depressed. ”

Although he couldn't fully understand the meaning of these words, Shi Bin understood that Shannan wanted to not be attached to one side.

"Thank you, Master Shannan, I, a layman, understand a little bit, and when I go home and look at those classics, I will probably no longer be confused."

When Shi Bin was about to leave, Shannan Daoist gave him a well-known poem:

Everyone in the world knows that immortals are good, but only fame

Can't forget! Where will the past and the present meet? The barren mound is gone, and the grass is gone.

Everyone in the world knows that the gods are good, only gold and silver can't forget! In the end, he only hated to gather much, and when he reached a long time, his eyes were closed.

Everyone in the world knows that the gods are good, only the wife can't forget it! Jun's birthday said kindness, and Jun died and went with others.

Everyone in the world knows that the gods are good, only the children and grandchildren can't forget! There are many infatuated parents in ancient times, who has seen filial piety to their children and grandchildren?

This is not Cao Xueqin's "Okay Song", how did it come out of Shannan's mouth? Although he doesn't believe that 'the king died and went with others' and 'filial piety to his children and grandchildren', Shi Bin still agrees with the first two sentences.

This poem can be regarded as waking up Shi Bin, but he himself has a ridiculous idea - to become a monk. As soon as he returned to the palace, Shi Bin went to Kunning Palace to call Jia Ling and Sai Xishi together, and said with an excited smile: "Two ladies, I have an idea and want to hear your opinions." ”

"Tell me, there's definitely something good about you're so happy." Jia Ling said with a smile.

"It's not a good thing, but it's kind of dawning on me." Shi Bin still said very excitedly.

"What are the plans of the husband, hurry up and tell the concubine and sister."

Then Shi Bin said his plan to 'become a monk'. Hearing Shi Bin's plan, Jia Ling and Sai Xishi, the two tigresses, were immediately furious. desperately scolded Shi Bin for being confused, and asked Xu Feng where Shi Bin had just gone and what he had done.

Seeing that the two queens had such a big temper, Xu Feng didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, and honestly told the whole thing clearly.

It was actually Xu Feng who proposed to see the Shannan Dao people, which was considered to have caught the 'culprit', since he couldn't punish Shi Bin, then he would take Xu Feng to vent his anger. Jia Ling and the others immediately asked the guards to drag Xu Feng down to play fifty boards. If it weren't for Shi Bin's plea to be reduced to thirty boards, I'm afraid Xu Feng would have been beaten to death.

"Sister, that Shannan is so hateful, he actually encouraged his husband to become a monk, I will definitely demolish that Taoist temple and exile him for three thousand miles, no, five thousand miles!" Sai Xi Shi said viciously.

"It's to be punished like this, just demolish the Taoist temple, but you must be exiled for 5,000 miles!"

"Two ladies, it's not that Shannan Dao people who want me to become a monk, it's me who wants to become a monk after seeing through the red dust. I feel that in fact, life is like a white horse passing through a gap, passing by a cloud. There's nothing wrong with being undersized. If the two ladies are reluctant to let me go, my husband and I will not leave home, how about cultivating in this palace? Shi Bin took a step back and said.

"Who can't bear you, don't put gold on your face!" Jia Ling's anger has not subsided, and when she heard Shi Bin say such a sensual thing, she immediately ridiculed her.

Although Sai Xishi didn't dare to ridicule him like this, he also gave Shi Bin a very disdainful look, plus a cold snort. Knowing that the two women are angry now, his nonsense is indeed a bit chilling, so Shi Bin, the emperor, had to wait for them to be angry and silent.

After a full stick of incense, Sai Xishi spoke: "Sister, it is understandable that the husband would talk such nonsense. ”

"Understandable?" I didn't understand Sai Xishi's thoughts, "Sister, why do you say that?" He doesn't know that if he is not calm today, does Daxiang still need him? ”

"Sister, it's just that my husband feels too much pressure and wants to escape. I'm sure his 'ordination' is just an excuse that he won't be a monk again when the day he becomes a monk." Most of them used the excuse of becoming a monk to dump all the government to Yun Peng and Wang San, and he himself was relaxed. It's just that I still care about the country in my heart. ”

Seeing that Sai Xi Shi said everything in his heart, Shi Bin smiled bitterly: "Xi Shi, you are really smart, you have seen through it." There are thoughts of escape, and most of them can't really become monks. However, I still want to be a Taoist, and I invite a Taoist priest to come to the palace every once in a while to give me lectures to everyone. ”

This is obviously just to relax psychologically, of course Jia Ling and Sai Xishi agreed, but they still reminded Shi Bin not to leave all this and go to have a happy life by himself. If you want to be a carefree faction, you have to take the two sisters with you, and you have to be able to master the court after Shi Yunpeng can control it.

Of course, I agreed with Jia Ling and Sai Xishi's conditions. So Shi Bin named himself 'Huqiao Sanren', Jia Ling named himself 'Qingyu', and Sai Xishi named himself 'Qingling'. and agreed to leave the cage of Luoyang in five years, and travel all over the world together.
