Chapter 153: Eldest Sun Wuji's Arrangement
Seeing that Ma Zhou proposed to pass on Fu Yi, Liu Zheng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, since it is an obscene monk ordered by His Royal Highness the Prince, why don't you invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the Liangyi Hall to ask clearly." ”
Li Shimin frowned when he heard this: "The prince has been unwell recently, so let him recuperate in peace!" ”
Li Shimin really doesn't want to see Li Chengqian now, after all, he personally arranged the affairs of Buddhism this time, no matter how good the reason is, but secretly calculating his son will make him feel guilty.
And Li Shimin feels very bad today, Xiao Yu is devoted to the Buddha, and he is dissatisfied with Li Chengqian's order to arrest the monk Yuanxue, and he is angry for a while and does not choose to speak, which is understandable. It is normal for Gao Jifu to speak outly and dare to admonish him to stand up and impeach Xiao Yu, but Liu Zheng's performance today is different from usual, Liu Zheng has always been cautious in his life and work, but today he is also bent on being an enemy of Buddhism, and faintly supports Li Chengqian, which makes Li Shimin both puzzled and secretly vigilant.
Just when Li Shimin was worried about the prophecy of the earth dragon turning over, a battle between the East Palace and Buddhism in Chang'an City began vigorously.
In addition to the people who stayed in the East Palace to row "The Legend of the White Snake", other people took to the streets to expose the sins of Buddhism, and made up jokes like "Tethered Doll" to go around saying that "Tethered Doll" is a cross talk that Li Chengqian listened to in his previous life, saying that a family without a son went to the temple to ask for a child, and then became pregnant, implying that the child of the monk who was pregnant.
Later generations generally laughed when they heard it, but after Li Chengqian's adaptation, the people of the Tang Dynasty were resentful of the monks.
Of course, the monks of the Tang Dynasty were not Zen after the self-reform of the Song Dynasty, and the current monks are very sensitive to the affairs of secular society.
As soon as it was discovered that the monks of Daxingshan Temple were not only arrested in the East Palace, but also that it was possible to continue to expand the situation, but also immediately threw themselves into the war, and a large number of monks went out of the temple to various places to recite and preach the scriptures.
Anyone who knows a little about the Buddhist scriptures knows that many Buddhist classics are small stories, and most of these stories are similar in content, that is, they tell the story of how a person worked hard to become a Buddha.
This is also the reason why Buddhism was extremely harmful to society and the country in the early days, and was repeatedly rejected by some people of insight and wise monarchs, and even destroyed Buddhism nationwide four times, but Buddhism has always been passed down from generation to generation among the people, and the development is getting better and better.
Of course, this time the Buddha door kicked to the iron plate, first of all, the Daxingshan Temple was struck by lightning first, in the Tang Dynasty, your home was thundered, and the people must think that it was because you had done too many bad things, not to mention that there was the East Palace behind the bad things that the monks in the Daxingshan Temple did were made public.
The second is that Li Chengqian also took the lower-class line, and he himself has a very high reputation among the people, so the two sides have been in a stalemate since the beginning of the struggle among the people.
Just when the great monks in the temples of Chang'an City were in a hurry, some people were bothering for him.
The eldest grandson Wuji, who had been thinking about it behind closed doors, was wearing a half-worn Taoist robe, sitting under the peach tree in the back garden of his house and playing chess with an old gentleman.
At this time, both of them were dressed in Taoist robes, taking advantage of the blooming peach blossoms in the back, they looked like they were all fairy wind bones from a distance, and they didn't know that they thought they had met immortals.
Linghu Dedi looked at the fact that his sunspot on the chessboard had completely died, sighed long, threw the chess pieces in his hand into the box and said: "Now Chang'an City is in a mess, but it is really rare that Lord Changsun can use all his thoughts on this small chessboard!" ”
When the eldest grandson Wuji heard this, he smiled indifferently and said: "The sage said: If you are not in your position, you will not seek your own government." You and I are both unofficial and light people, so why bother about the affairs of the court?"
Linghu Dedi knew that the eldest grandson Wuji must not think so in his heart, otherwise he would not invite himself to play chess with him.
But looking at the eldest grandson Wuji's indifferent appearance, he didn't ask much, and immediately got up and walked to a peach tree to pretend to enjoy the flowers, waiting for the eldest grandson Wuji to say the rest of the words.
It's just that the eldest grandson Wuji raised his head to admire the flowers without saying a word, as if he was also waiting for some news.
After a while, the housekeeper of the Changsun Mansion walked in, and when the Changsun Wuji saw this housekeeper, he asked casually, "Have you inquired clearly?"
"Yes, sir." The housekeeper responded to the eldest grandson Wuji, and then glanced at the other subordinates who were waiting here at this time: "You all retreat!" ”
When Linghu Dedi heard this, he also pretended to retire, but the eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly stopped him and said: "Linghu Shengxian, you and I are not outsiders, just sit down and listen!" ”
Ling Er Dedi was also humble and sat down again opposite the eldest grandson Wuji, and when the eldest grandson Wuji saw this, he nodded to the housekeeper and motioned for him to speak.
"Back to the master, Xiao Tejin said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was 'so perverse that he would go to the eighteenth layer of hell' was impeached for a big crime of disrespect by Gao Jifu, a member of the Zhongshu House, and His Majesty has issued an order to hand it over to the ministry."
"Ahh
Ling Hu Dedi couldn't help but exclaim when he heard it, and was glanced at by the eldest grandson Wuji, only to realize that he was out of shape and was busy keeping his mouth shut.
"What did Fu Yi say?"
"Tai Shi Ling said that there has never been a record of thunder before the earth dragon turns, but there is a book that records that the sound of the Taoist alchemy furnace is similar to thunder.
His Majesty thought that he was old and nonsense, and he didn't believe it, so he was very worried that the dragon in Chang'an City would turn over......"
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji said secretly in his heart: It's rare that Fu Yi didn't say it to death this time, so .......
Thinking of this, the eldest grandson Wuji sighed, stood up and raised his eyes into the distance, and only after a while did he turn around and look at Linghu Dedi as if he had made a big decision: "Mr. Linghu, although you and I are no longer in the imperial court, but in the end we are still the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty, how can we watch the catastrophe of Chang'an City coming?"
Ling Hu Dedi's face was also solemn when he heard this, and he slowly got up and walked in front of Eldest Sun Wuji and said: "Although Lord Eldest Sun said so, but the turn of the earth dragon is still a matter of nothingness after all, but the livelihood of hundreds of thousands of people is not easy to arrange." ”
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji shook his head and said, "The livelihood of hundreds of thousands of people is important, but once the earth dragon turns over, I don't know if the entire Chang'an City can be saved." For the sake of the entire Chang'an City, it is worth it to let these hundreds of thousands of people suffer some grievances, not to mention the misfortune of this earth dragon turning over or what is the way to crack it, but now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrested all the monks of Yuanxue, let alone the method of cracking. ”
Ling Hu Dedi frowned and thought for a long time when he heard this, and said with a cold breath: "If there is a way to crack it......"
"The top priority now is to release the monk Yuanzhi, and then find a way." Seeing that he didn't understand, the eldest grandson Wuji nodded at him again.
"Then you want to face the one in the East Palace?" Ling Hude understood that the eldest grandson Wuji wanted to use this matter to deal with Li Chengqian, as for the matter of Long Shouyuan......
The eldest grandson Wuji saw that he understood, smiled incomprehensibly, nodded and said: "The affairs of the court have Yu Shuzi come forward, but this matter is related to the people, and the one in the East Palace has a very high reputation, and Mr. is a great Confucian in the Guanzhong, and please ask Mr. to invite some Confucian students in Beijing to talk about it from time to time, don't let them understand what happened at that time." ”
Linghu Dedi heard that at this time, he completely understood that the eldest grandson Wuji was preparing for the abolition of the crown prince, and it seemed that they were ready for everything......
The pinnacle showdown is about to begin.
