Chapter 884: High Monk Clarity

A live sheep was thrown into the fire, and immediately let out a violent scream, and its body kept struggling to escape, but unfortunately its limbs had been tied with ropes dipped in water, and it couldn't break free for a while, and the fur on its whole body was also on fire, making its cry lower and lower, and finally its whole body was twitching and finally stopped struggling.

In order to investigate the realistic effect, Li Shimin let the fire burn for a while, and finally let people extinguish the fire, and then pulled the two sheep out of the ashes of the fire, in order to facilitate the viewing, the guards directly split the mouths of the two sheep, and the result can be seen at a glance, the mouth of the sheep that was burned alive was full of soot, while the mouth of the dead sheep was very clean.

"Xiao Xiang, you should believe it now, do you want to go to Xinzhu County and take a trip to see if the mouth and nose of that corpse are as clean as this dead sheep?" Seeing this result, Fu Yi immediately sneered and stood up and ridiculed.

"Humph!" Xiao Yu also snorted coldly when he heard this, but he didn't answer, after all, this time confirming that what Li Xiu said was true had already made him lose face once, and he didn't want to lose face a second time.

"Now it has been confirmed that the body suspected of Hui Ming was indeed burned after death, and after Hui Ming's death, there were a lot of rumors in Chang'an City, and Zhuang Zhuang was not good for the horse, so the minister thought that this must be a conspiracy against the horse, and asked Your Majesty to investigate this matter thoroughly!" At this moment, Wei Zheng, who had not spoken much, suddenly stood up and said righteously.

"The minister also thinks that this matter is very important, and someone dares to secretly calculate the important ministers of the court, and ask Your Majesty to investigate it strictly!" In addition to Wei Zheng's words, the eldest grandson Wuji also stood up and said, and then Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others also expressed their support one by one, this time someone dared to secretly calculate Li Xiu, then someone may dare to calculate them in the future, so in this matter, they also stood with Li Xiu.

"It's indeed bold, it seems that the world has been peaceful for a long time, and some people have forgotten how sharp my butcher's knife is!" Li Shimin also said with a cold face at this time, the minister is his assistant to rule the world, and if someone dares to touch the most important assistant around him, it can be said that he does not take him as the emperor in his eyes, how can he not be angry?

"Summoning Dali Temple Qing Jin to see you!" At that moment, Li Shimin immediately instructed that Dali Temple was in charge of major and important cases in the capital, and its power was much greater than that of the small Xinzhu County Ya, and it was most suitable for Dali Temple to investigate and handle this case.

"Your Majesty, even if Hui Ming's death is a little strange, but the minister still feels that the imperial court rashly established the Monk and Taoist Division, which has dealt a big blow to Buddhism and Taoism, and now it has caused a great impact on the people, I am afraid that the people will be unstable in the future, so please think twice!" At this moment, I suddenly saw Xiao Yu speak again, it seems that he still does not give up, and he still wants to save Buddhism.

"The Monk Daolu Division is a decision made by me after careful consideration, and the evil deeds of Buddhism and Taoism that have been investigated and dealt with these days are also shocking, I never dreamed that the two religions of Buddhism and Taoism have been rotten like this, so don't mention this matter again!" Li Shimin was also angry at this time, and when he heard Xiao Yu mention the matter of the Monk Daolu Division again, he also snorted coldly and refused.

"What Your Majesty said is extremely true, and the minister thinks that this conspiracy against the concubine is likely to be related to Buddhism, and they did not hesitate to frame the important ministers of the court for their own selfishness, and even the minister wondered if Xiao Xiang was also related to this matter?" At this moment, I suddenly saw Fu Yi step forward again and said, he hates the Buddha like an idiot, as long as someone dares to stop him from destroying the Buddha, he will be ruthlessly attacked, even if it is to use some dishonorable means.

"You...... You're spewing blood! Xiao Yu's old face turned red with anger when he heard Fu Yi's words, and he scolded loudly at the moment, he always thought he was a gentleman, and he looked down on this kind of hurtful method behind his back, but he didn't expect Fu Yi to splash this kind of dirty water on himself.

"Okay, don't quarrel, the most important thing now is to find out who has the audacity to dare to frame the important ministers of the court, instead of arguing in front of me!" Li Shimin finally spoke again at this time to interrupt the quarrel between the two and said, although he didn't want to see Xiao Yu, he still believed in Xiao Yu's character.

"Your Majesty, as early as after the minister found out that the body of the suspected Hui Ming was burned after death, he found out that there was a conspiracy against the minister behind it, so the minister turned a blind eye to the rumors of the outside world during this time, but secretly let people investigate this matter, and now he has found out something!" As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, I saw Li Xiu suddenly stand up and say at this time.

"Oh, colt, you have a clue?" Li Shimin's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this, and he immediately asked.

"Your Majesty, when the minister learned that Huiming was burned after his death, he also suspected that this matter was related to Buddhism, and it was even very likely that there was a grudge against the minister in Buddhism, so he took revenge on the minister, so the minister has been asking people to investigate the movements of people in Buddhism during this time, and it turned out that there was a monk who was extremely active during this time, and often went in and out of the mansions of some dignitaries!" When Li Xiu said the end, he couldn't help but sneer.

Before Li Xiu asked Xu Jingzong to investigate Xiao Yu, hoping to find out the mastermind who framed him through Xiao Yu, Xu Jingzong really lived up to expectations, and finally found that there was a monk who had frequent contact with Xiao Yu, and what was even more surprising was that this monk was not only close to Xiao Yu, but also had contact with many high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and these people were the main force that impeached Li Xiu before, such as Xiao Yu and several people behind him now, all of whom had been in contact with that monk.

"A monk? What's the name of the other party? Li Shimin couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and at the same time the anger in his heart was even stronger, originally he was still a little worried about attacking Buddhism, but if it was really a monk who dared to frame Li Xiu, then he would have to pay a greater price for Buddhism.

"The method number is clear, it is said that he is one of the most famous monks in Chang'an City, but the minister doesn't know much about Buddhism, in contrast, Xiao Xiang must know this Ming very well!" When Li Xiu said the end, he couldn't help but look at Xiao Yu with a smile.

"Nonsense! It is clear that he is a virtuous monk, how could he do such a villainous thing! As soon as Li Xiu's words fell, Xiao Yu reprimanded loudly, he felt a little bad just now, although he and Ming Ji did not have any private deals, but this time the reason why he joined others to impeach Li Xiu and asked for the removal of the Monk Daolu Division, Ming Ji did make a lot of efforts from it.

"Haha~, there are many virtuous monks in Chang'an City, but I think you should ask Dr. Wei and Fu Taishi to see how many high-ranking monks they have found out during this time that they are well-dressed beasts!" Li Xiu laughed loudly when he heard this, and then he also fought back very sharply.

"What the horse said is extremely true, during this period of time, our monk Daolu Division investigated and dealt with the lawless people in various temples, among them there are high monks with grand plans, on the surface they are compassionate, but secretly they are oppressive and kind, and even force the believers to commit to her, and they have scavenged tens of thousands of money, and there are also high monks who are celebrating ......"

Fu Yi also laughed when he heard Li Xiu's words, and then cited a series of examples, these so-called senior monks used to be countless believers, but they were only merciful on the surface, and they did countless evil things behind their backs, which were also dealt with by the Monk Daolu Division in accordance with the law, and their deterioration was announced to the public.

"You ......" Xiao Yu was also angry at these examples cited by Fu Yi, and he had the intention to argue that they were not real Buddhist disciples, but he felt that he had no confidence, after all, these people were indeed famous monks before, but who would have thought that behind the monks were a belly of male thieves and female prostitutes?

"Clearly, I think I've heard of this man?" Li Shimin also said to himself with a gloomy face at this time, he also felt that the name of Ming Xuan was very familiar, but for a while, he couldn't remember where he had heard of it.

"Your Majesty, when there was a great drought in Hebei last year, this person once built a Dharma platform in Chang'an, saying that it was to pray for rain in Hebei, but later it really rained heavily in Hebei, which led to this person's fame, and the believers in Chang'an alone claimed to have 100,000 people!" At this time, I saw Fang Xuanling stand up and introduce.

"It was him, I remember!" Li Shimin couldn't help but nod thoughtfully when he heard this, and muttered to himself.

After the beginning of spring last year, there was no rain in Hebei for two months, resulting in a very serious drought in the local area, even if the food reserves of Datang were sufficient, but the local people could not even guarantee drinking water, and it was useless to have food, so he was also worried for a long time, but he did not expect that it would rain suddenly, and there was a minister at that time, saying that the rain was thanks to the monk Ming Zhi praying for rain, although Li Shimin did not believe much in the things of gods and ghosts, but he was on the rise at that time, and for the sake of Ming Ming praying for rain for the people, he also rewarded the other party.

"Pony, do you suspect that this is the person who framed you behind it?" Li Shimin thought about it for a while, and then asked Li Xiu again.

"Your Majesty, before the matter was investigated, the minister was not sure who was behind it, but after the rumors of the death of Monk Huiming spread, this Ming Xuan was extremely active, and he frequently contacted some ministers, and then it happened that Xiao Xiang and all the ministers participated in the minister's book, and asked for the abolition of the Monk Daolu Division, so the minister suspected that Ming Zhi should have something to do with this matter!" Li Xiu replied again at the moment, and when he said the end, he also deliberately glanced at Xiao Yu and the people behind him.

"Xiao Xiang, what do you have to say about this person?" Li Shimin naturally also noticed Li Xiu's gaze at Xiao Yu and the others, and immediately thought that Ming Yu must have been in contact with Xiao Yu, so he immediately asked.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... The minister felt that what the horse said was untrue, Ming Zhi was a famous monk in Chang'an, and the old minister often discussed Buddhism with him, and he also admired his cultivation in Buddhism, so the old minister dared to guarantee that Ming Ming had nothing to do with this matter! Although Xiao Yu felt a little lacking in confidence, he was difficult to ride a tiger at this time, so he could only say it head-on.
