Chapter 56: Destroying the Buddha

[These chapters originally wanted to spill some dog blood, but when it comes to religious issues, it's better to mention them in one stroke. 】

Oh my God, a pearl with a dragon's eye! Fifty taels of gold ingots! The best mutton fat jade! It is rare to see a treasure on weekdays, and it actually stuffs the belly of this Buddha to the brim! No wonder His Highness said that he was a robber leader, if it weren't for the trick and harm, a group of monks, who wanted to save so much wealth by turning into a relationship, would not have been able to do so much in eight lifetimes!

Hearing the sound of the Buddha statue cracking, the old monk in the courtyard and the prince of the Wang family let out a wail at the same time, this time it's all over!

The words of the little colonel at the beginning were not good: "Your Royal Highness!" What to do with these things? ”

Li Kuan sneered: "It is said that Buddhism is penance, okay, just drag these things out and put them on Suzaku Street, so that everyone in the world can see how these people in Buddhism who are full of compassion practice penance!" Pass it on, let the teams that raid the temples everywhere, and put all the temple assets on the streets, so that the world can open their eyes! ”

The soldiers suddenly came to their senses, and hurriedly organized people and horses, counted the materials, sorted out all kinds of treasures, pushed them with carts, held them with their hands, and carried them with baskets, and put all the belongings in the Puji Temple on Suzaku Street.

Seeing that Shi Teng was also moving with the soldiers, Li Kuan called him over, and flashed after a few words. The handle of the knife has been handed out, how to chop it is the emperor's own business. In the struggle for rectification, people are the experts. Besides, if you have to do everything yourself, it will be too low, and you can't live up to our immortal identity.

The shops that used to have lanterns on the street helped to make room for lights so that these things could be better displayed in people's eyes. They are already connoisseurs of selling goods, and things can be put on a visual effect through their hands.

With the passage of time, 86 temples in Chang'an City, large and small, were searched and checked one by one. All the supplies, including Buddha statues and ritual utensils, were transported to Suzaku Street, and then the materials were placed along the street like commodities in each temple.

The monks, on the other hand, were surrounded by soldiers. While there is no abuse, there is no freedom of movement. During this period, there were also a few people who tried to make a fuss, but they were all killed directly on the spot. With these bloody facts, others have to come to terms with this sad state of affairs. This time, the soldier was the one who moved the real thing.

The wide Suzaku Street was originally full of all kinds of lanterns, but now there are countless sesame oil lamps and lights brought by the people, which can be said to be like daylight.

Under the bright lights, those gold and silver treasures, silk and satin, shining with all kinds of treasure light, more and more fascinating, moving.

Chang'an City, which was originally lively, although there were more people at this time, the voice was strangely low. This made the occasional eruption of a few wails more and more clearly audible.

At dawn, the raid came to an end, and lists of Buddhist properties were sent to the palace.

His Majesty Li Er, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who had been waiting all night, was a little dizzy when he saw the thick list, and after turning a few pages, he felt that his heart was about to burst out of his chest.

Qiang pressed his emotions and handed those lists to the eldest grandson Wuji: "Auxiliary, you can also take a look, and let all the secretaries take a look......"

The eldest grandson Wuji turned the first page and immediately gasped: "This ...... Could it be a mistake? ”

Li Shimin sneered: "Mistaken? Ha! I wish I had made a mistake, but everything was on Suzaku Street! Could it be that the CD was given by the Buddha? ”

The ministers in the palace all accompanied the emperor and waited all night, and at this time there was finally a result, who could still bear it, and they all competed to look through the list.

Suddenly, someone said sadly: "Golden silk white jade sheep head!" This is my family heirloom, the last years of the great cause, the world is in chaos. In order to keep the incense, the ancestors of the family fled with four brothers and brothers, each with a share of the clan's output...... None of my fourth uncle's team survived...... This thing actually fell to Putuo Temple! I hate that old bald donkey with Huiyin, who has been friends with my father for several years, and I haven't even mentioned a word......"

Hum! Someone ridiculed: "I didn't kidnap your baby, and it is already considered the Buddha's mercy to ask your family for sesame oil money when I turn around and ask your family for sesame oil money!" ”

Another humane: "It's hard to guarantee that these bald people have nothing to do with the death of your fourth uncle!" ”

In an instant, the Taiji Hall was as noisy as a vegetable market.

Li Shimin got up and rubbed his face, moved his body, and pointed to the palace door: "Since it is all laid out, then Zhuqing will follow me and go to the street to take a look!" ”

The Lantern Festival is still very cold, but it still can't stop the enthusiasm in the hearts of the Tang monarchs. A group of people Wuyang Wuyang went to the street, and the royal guards hurriedly stepped forward to escort them. The people who originally stood on the street to watch the excitement, after being urged by the sound of the street, quickly evacuated Suzaku Street, and those who wanted to see the excitement crowded into the alleys, and those who didn't want to see the excitement returned home.

The 40-meter-wide Suzaku Street is lined with belongings confiscated from various temples. In order to enhance the visual impact, Li Kuan deliberately mentioned some ways to display some evidence in later generations. All kinds of belongings are arranged in neat rows, and the shock hits the heart.

The soldiers in charge of the operation last night were all left and right royal guards, but the person in charge was the internal supervisor Shi Teng. At this time, the things reported to the emperor were also completed by him.

"Your Majesty, Ladies and Gentlemen. Last night, a total of 86 large and small Buddhist temples in the city were raided, and as many as 35 evil deeds were exposed. There are twelve places where boys and girls are trafficked! Nearly 300 boys and girls were rescued! There are more than 200 traitors and wicked people harbored in various temples. Thirty-eight of those who resisted on the spot and were killed......"

With Stern's soft but clear voice, bursts of gasping voices rose and fell in the crowd. Who would have thought that the biggest hiding place in Chang'an City turned out to be a Buddhist temple! No wonder they dare to commit the evil act of human trafficking, and no wonder they can save that huge wealth.

At the same time, many people in the ranks of the ministers couldn't help but tremble. It's not cold, it's scared. These monks can do such terrible things, is it really the courage that the Buddha gave them? No! It's backed by the backstage! And these people are the umbrella of these monks, and now that the incident has happened, the umbrella will not be able to hold on.

Although Shi Teng's report did not involve collusion between officials and monks, everyone understands that by now, it will be exposed. Maybe it has been revealed, and the emperor did not expose it to his face, but he was looking for a better time.

Poof! Someone knelt directly on the side of the street: "Your Majesty! The minister is guilty! The minister was with that ......"

Poof! Others followed suit: "Your Majesty, the minister confesses......"

Li Shimin's expression was a little lonely, and he extended an olive branch to the five surnamed Qiwang many times, but he never received a response. Even the intention of connecting relatives was ridiculed by others when it was spread over there. originally thought that after he became the emperor, sooner or later he would find an opportunity to subdue these wealthy families. Who would have thought that before he did it, people would reach out to his side first!

"Where's Xiao Er?" Li Shimin ignored the gang, interrupted Shi Teng's report, and asked Li Kuan instead: "He poked a hole in the sky, what next?" What was he going to do? Do you want to continue to stab the big one, or do you want to make up for it? ”

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu means ......" Shi Teng said in a low voice: "Check the officials, beat the family, and destroy the Buddha!" ”
