With the issuance of Li Jiancheng's edict, although there was some internal backlash within the two gates of Buddhism and Taoism, in principle, Li Jiancheng's edict was even supported by the fourth patriarch of Zen Buddhism, Daoxin, who openly announced to the outside world:

"Your Majesty's holy judgment, there are many people in my Buddhist family who are cheating and cheating, they don't like to work, they don't like the Buddha's teachings, and now Your Majesty solves problems for poor monks, and poor monks should lead many disciples to supervise their studies and understand the mantra of the Buddha. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

The Taoist leader of Taishan Beidou, the national teacher Qihui, also instructed his disciples during the retreat:

"During the period of retreat and cultivation of the poor path, you must supervise the disciples to study, and the bloodline of the royal family is the descendant of the Taishang Laojun, and we, as the disciples of the Taishang Laojun, must not forget the teachings of the Taishang Laojun. Assist Li Tang's imperial cause and pacify the creatures of the world. As soon as Taishan Beidou of the two worlds of Buddhism and Taoism said this, the two worlds of Buddhism and Taoism immediately stopped and did not say a word. With the implementation of the Li Tang Buddhist and Taoist scriptures examination, the passing rate of senior monks and Taoist priests in Guanzhong and Luoyang through the imperial court examination is extremely high. The low pass rate is mainly in the Jiangnan area. Therefore, the temples and Taoist temples in the south of the Yangtze River were destroyed, and the monks, nuns, Taoist priests, and Taoist aunts were much more vulgar. The fold was sent to Li Jiancheng, and when Li Jiancheng saw it, he smiled:

"Humph! There are 480 temples in the Southern Dynasties, and how many buildings are in the smoke and rain. "The Southern Dynasty due to the prosperity of Buddhism, and at that time Emperor Wu of Liang advocated Buddhism and built a lot of temple towers, many monks, and then was redeemed, and then the concubines, princesses built temple towers of the wind is particularly prosperous, so the Southern Dynasty temples are numerous, and the majority of people are built with wood, most of the Buddhist temples are in the capital city of Jiankang (now Nanjing). In addition, because Emperor Yang Guanglong of the Sui Dynasty was in the south of the Yangtze River, when he was the governor of Yangzhou, he once worshipped the monks of Jiangnan Buddhism as a teacher, so he also greatly supported the Jiangnan Buddhist Temple, so the Jiangnan Buddhism ranked first in the Central Plains. However, this time, the destroyed temples and Taoist temples were destroyed, and monks, nuns, Taoist priests, and Taoist aunts were the most vulgar. After Mingyu's father-in-law heard Li Jiancheng's words, he immediately greeted the Bingbi Yushi beside him:

"Quick, write it down, the emperor has written a poem again." Li Jiancheng continued to watch, but suddenly became angry:

"It makes no sense." As soon as he heard Li Jiancheng's words, the father-in-law Mingyu who was present and the Bingbi Yushi in the hall immediately knelt down. Trembling with fright, Li Jiancheng shouted:

"Someone! Give me a decree to the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Rites! In the future, if there are fugitives and traitors hiding in Buddhist temples and Taoist temples in the Buddhist Tao, not only will they be convicted, but the temple will be no different from hiding, and all monks and Taoist priests will be detained and preside over the distribution border! It turned out that Li Jiancheng saw that in the process of returning to the world, the government also searched for many fugitive criminals, hiding in temples and Taoist temples in the name of cultivation. So furious. In the process of destroying the temples and Taoist temples in Jiangnan, Li Jiancheng destroyed nearly 1,000 temples in total, collected nearly 100,000 catties of high-grade red copper, nearly a million taels of gold and silver, and a large number of rare treasures. Li Jiancheng smiled:

"I have long heard that Jiangnan is rich, but I never imagined that this Buddhism is even richer than our royal family!" After having so much wealth, Li Jiancheng issued an edict to the court officials:

"At the beginning of my dynasty, because the world was in turmoil and chaos, and everything was in ruins, I still used five baht coins at the beginning. However, the five-baht coin, which began in the Han Dynasty, has been in circulation in the country for more than 700 years. During this period, after the rise and fall of the dynasty, there was no unified standard for the size of the dynasty. Even the simplest Sui five baht has a variety of sizes. In addition, the circulation of coins in the Northern Zhou, Northern Qi and Southern Dynasties of the previous generation, the state of currency was extremely chaotic, and due to the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the currency depreciated sharply, and the people lived very poorly. Every time I think about it, my heart hurts. I decided to introduce the new currency and issue an edict to abolish the five-baht coin. In ancient China, the weight count was mostly marked with face text, and twenty-four baht was one tael, and my new money weighed one tael per penny, one tael per ten, and each guan (i.e. one thousand wen) weighed six catties and four taels. Each article weighs two baht and four silks, and it is admirable. After Li Jiancheng's edict was promulgated, the ministers asked Li Jiancheng:

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, what is the name of this money? What kind of pattern do you choose? ”

"The Chinese military officials of the Shu Dynasty took their own names, drew the drawings and presented them to the front of the Shu, and were hand-picked by the Shu!" After hearing Li Jiancheng's holy decree, the officials of Chang'an immediately racked their brains and tried their best to send their ideas to the imperial front. Li Jiancheng saw the mountains of albums and words in front of him, and smiled in his heart - "Hmph! On weekdays, I was not so active in dealing with official business and state affairs, but now I know that designing coins can be famous through the ages, and one by one they are like bees that smell honey to get here. Hum! Okay, let's see, what did you send me? Li Jiancheng looked at these mountains of words and albums carefully, and had to say that it took effort to send his own characters and designs to the front of the emperor. The words are not ugly, and suddenly, Li Jiancheng was attracted by a calligraphy and painting pattern. I saw that the font was plump and powerful, and there were four big characters of Kaiyuan Tongbao written on it. Li Jiancheng shouted to Mingyu's father-in-law:

"Mingyu, do you know who sent this font pattern?" Mingyu's father-in-law looked at it and replied to Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty, this font pattern was sent to Lord Ouyang Xun in the matter."

"Oh! It's him! When Li Jiancheng heard Ouyang Xun's name, he immediately recalled Ouyang Xun's resume and deeds.

Ouyang Xun, the letter book, Han nationality, Tang Dynasty Tanzhou Linxiang (now Changsha, Hunan) people, Tang Dynasty famous calligrapher, official, one of the four regular script families, the Southern Dynasty Ouyang family children, the Southern Liang Zheng Southern General Ouyang Wei's grandson, the Southern Chen Zuowei general Ouyang Su's son, Liang Taiping of the Southern Dynasty was born in Hengzhou (now Hengyang, Hunan) in the second year, and his ancestral home is Tanzhou Linxiang (now Changsha, Hunan). Ouyang Xun and the current Yu Shinan, Chu Suiliang, and Xue Ji are known as the four masters of the early Tang Dynasty. Because his son Ouyang Tong is also good at calligraphy, it is also called "Da Ou". Ouyang Xun and Yu Shinan are famous for their calligraphy in the early Tang Dynasty, and called "Ou Yu", the descendants of their books in the middle of the danger in the peace, the most convenient for beginners, called "European Style". The representative works include "Jiucheng Palace Liquan Inscription", "Huangfu's Birthday Tablet", "Huadu Temple Tablet", and the line books have "Zhongni Dream Laying Post" and "Xingshu Thousand Character Text". He has his own unique views on calligraphy, including calligraphy and treatises "Eight Tips", "Teaching Tips", "Theory of Using Brushes", and "Thirty-six Laws". The "Huadu Siyi Zen Master Relic Pagoda Inscription", "Yu Gonggong Wen Yanbo Tablet", and "Huangfu's Birthday Tablet" are known as "the first Tang Dynasty regular script". Ouyang Xun's grandfather, Ouyang Xu, successively served as an envoy, governor of the military of Hengzhou, general of Annan, general of Zhengnan and other important positions. Ouyang Xun's father, Ouyang Su, joined the army with his father at the age of 20, brave and good at fighting, and later inherited his father's business, and served as the military governor of 19 states such as Jiaojiao and Guangzhou, and the history of Guangzhou Thorn. In the first year of Emperor Chen Xuan's Taijian, the emperor worshipped him as the general of the left guard because he suspected that he had two hearts.

Ouyang Su rebelled according to Guangzhou, and was defeated and captured in the spring of the second year, and only Ouyang Xun was exempted because he fled, and the rest were all killed. At this time, Ouyang Xun was only 13 years old, and two months later, the queen mother died, and the world was amnesty, so Ouyang Xun was spared death, escaped, and was adopted by his father's former friend Jiang Zong. Ouyang Xun followed his adoptive father for more than 20 years and lived in Jiankang (now Nanjing, Jiangsu). In the first year of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, Ouyang consulted Dr. Taichang. After I settled in Dingguanzhong, in the second year of Tang Gaozu Wude, Yu Wenhua and claimed to be the Son of Heaven, and Ouyang Xun was also taken captive by Yu Wenhua as a courtier. In the third year of Tang Gaozu Wude, Dou Jiande broke through Liaocheng, and Ouyang Xun was retained by Xia Guo and awarded the post of Taichangqing. Later, in the battle of Luoyang, the Qin king Li Shimin broke Dou Jiande in the tiger prison, pacified Hebei, Ouyang Xun escaped death again, and later because Ouyang Xun had a very good relationship with Gaozu Li Yuan in the Sui Dynasty, so he was awarded the post of servant, at the age of 65. In the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, he was tired of moving the doctor of Yinqing Guanglu, giving things, the prince rate of the order, the bachelor of Hongwenguan, and the male of Bohai County, so he is also called "Ouyang rate more". In the fifth year of Gaozu Wude, Ouyang Xun responded to the edict and presided over the compilation of "Art and Literature Gathering". Seven years to complete the book, consult the preface. The book is 100 volumes, divided into 48 parts. The book cites more than 1,400 ancient books, most of which have since been dispersed. Relying on "Art Gathering" to preserve many important contents of the books. Ouyang Xun passed away at the age of 80. In Li Tang, it can be regarded as a long life. After Li Jiancheng recalled Ouyang Xun's resume, he instructed Mingyu's father-in-law:

"Mingyu, you quickly go to Ouyang Xun's mansion to pass the decree, and let Ouyang Xun enter the palace as soon as possible."

"Yes! Your Majesty, the slave and maid will go immediately. Ouyang Xun was drinking tea at home, and at this time, Ouyang Xun heard the report from the porter that Mingyu's father-in-law in the palace had arrived. Get up right away and greet you.

"Oops! It's Mingyu's father-in-law! There is a long way to go. ”

"Lord Ouyang, Your Majesty has a will, Lord Xuan Ouyang will enter the palace immediately."

"Oh! Father-in-law, I don't know what His Majesty summoned the lower officials? Ouyang Xun said as he took out a bag of things from his cuffs and stuffed it towards Mingyu's father-in-law. Mingyu's father-in-law swung the bag to the side:

"Ugh! Lord Ouyang, what are you doing here? The miscellaneous family just came to summon the adults into the palace to see the driver. These things are not needed by miscellaneous families. As he spoke, he made a gesture of indifference. Ouyang Xun felt strange - what the hell is going on with these eunuchs today? Could it be that I dislike me for giving a little less? That's so much on weekdays!

"Hmmm! Father-in-law, this is ......" Mingyu's father-in-law doesn't have that much patience. Directly yelled at Ouyang Xun:

"Lord Ouyang, the emperor wants you to hurry over, it's too late, and the emperor will blame you. Hurry up and change into court clothes and go with the miscellaneous family! Ouyang Xun didn't dare to slack off, immediately changed into court clothes, and walked with Mingyu's father-in-law in the direction of Taiji Palace. Ouyang Xun walked all the way, thinking all the way - did these eunuchs change their sex? Don't charge any more? Only Mingyu's father-in-law knew what was going on-when Mingyu's father-in-law came, Li Jiancheng muttered in Mingyu's father-in-law's ear:

"Mingyu, I know that you chamberlains are short of money, and you go out on errands and get some from time to time, but you have to know that some money can be taken, and some money can not be taken. There are a lot of lessons to be taken to heart by the father-in-law of the waning moon! After listening to Li Jiancheng's words, Mingyu's father-in-law broke out in a cold sweat - after Li Jiancheng officially ascended the throne, on the grounds of reporting the progress of Li Yuan's dedication to the mausoleum, Li Yuan's personal eunuch Wanyue deceived him to Xianling.

"Father-in-law of the waning moon. I can ascend the throne today, and your Duke Wanyue has made great contributions! ”

"Your Majesty! What you said ...... "Father-in-law Wanyue thought in his heart - you Li Jiancheng was able to ascend the throne, not because I often provide you with news, um! There must be some reward for me! It must be so. Father-in-law Wanyue thought to himself. But on the surface, he still looks humble:

"Ahh Your Majesty. These are the things that a slave and a maid should do. Li Jiancheng turned to Wanyue and said.

"Father-in-law! You're right, as the saying goes, meritorious service will be rewarded, and if you have done so, you will be punished for assisting me to ascend the throne, and you are indeed meritorious, but you have repeatedly leaked the secret words of the forbidden China to the kings of Li Tang and the court officials, should you be punished! Father-in-law Wanyue was originally happy in his heart, thinking that Li Jiancheng was going to reward himself, but after hearing the latter words, he immediately panicked.

"Your Majesty! Slave, I ......" At this time, Di Renjie, who was beside Li Jiancheng, shouted:

"A bold minion, dare to assassinate the king and take it."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty spares your life! Your Majesty! "The father-in-law of the waning moon was taken to a big pit by five flowers:

"Father-in-law Wanyue, you have served your father and the emperor meritoriously and should be rewarded, but if you leak the secret words in the forbidden world, you should be punished! I remember that you have served your father, so I will allow you to be buried next to your father! Push the remnant moon father-in-law down for me. When the father-in-law heard that he was going to be buried alive, he was frightened and quickly kowtowed to Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty spares your life! Your Majesty! Li Jiancheng directly gasped for the remnant moon father-in-law and kicked the remnant moon father-in-law down. Subsequently, he ordered Mingyu's father-in-law to take a few imperial eunuchs and guards to fill the soil with shovels. Every time a shovel of soil fell, the louder the shouts of the Father-in-law of the Remnant Moon became, and Father-in-law Mingyu felt that this was buried by himself. Slowly, the father-in-law of the waning moon was silent, and the pit was filled. Li Jiancheng asked Mingyu's father-in-law and a few little eunuchs and guards in front of the emperor to step on it a few times. The soil is trampled on the ground.

"Mingyu!" Mingyu's father-in-law heard Li Jiancheng calling him, and immediately ran to Li Jiancheng to obey his orders.

"What does Your Majesty command?"

"You personally went to Renshou Palace and reported to your father, and said that the father-in-law of the remnant moon was injured by the engineering stone during the inspection of the mausoleum project. Died of serious injuries! After Mingyu's father-in-law listened to Li Jiancheng's words, he immediately complied. Later, Li Jiancheng pointed to the little eunuchs and guards and said:

"A few of you go with Mingyu's father-in-law and testify!" When Mingyu's father-in-law left with the little eunuchs and guards, Li Jiancheng looked at the ground that had just been filled in—perhaps, I was cruel. However, I know that in order to prevent the eunuchs from interfering in politics and power, I have to sacrifice your life. I hope you don't blame me. And Mingyu's father-in-law and those little eunuchs and guards also knew in their hearts that this was the emperor's last warning to him. So when Ouyang Xun asked, he didn't reveal a word, and he didn't accept Ouyang Xun's money.
