Chapter 625: The Slander of the Dharma King

On the other side, in Qin Lin's mansion in Straw Hat Hutong, in Xu Wenchang's messy room, the conclusion reached after deliberation was very different from that of the White Lotus Sect.

Old man Xu's fingers like chicken claws were vigorously shaving on the top of his head, and the faint old man's eyes were full of cunning, "Hmph, Zha Tan Jinding Temple has finally made a move!" Huang Taiji was here before, and the old man was not very sure, but now it seems that he is not far from ten. ”

It's a long story, the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty favored the lama monks, and the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, Kublai Khan, named Ba Si Pa as the national teacher, and the influence of Buddhism in the Central Plains region increased, and the emperors in the early and middle Ming Dynasty were influenced by it to believe in Buddhism, like Yao Guangxiao, the first adviser under Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty, who was a monk.

The canonization of the head of Tibetan Buddhism also has a very practical political significance, that is, to control the upper echelons of the religion by entrapment, so as to exercise restraint and rule over Uszang.

Ming Chengzu Yongle canonized two ** kings, Xuanzong and canonized the third king, Zen masters, national teachers, empowerment teachers are difficult to count, Xianzong, filial piety also do a lot of Buddhist things, to Wuzong Zhengde Emperor is even more amazing, this playful emperor because of obsession with Tibetan Buddhism, actually willing to spend a lot of effort to learn Sanskrit, Tibetan, and once a time to give the monk 30,000 copies, to the end of the ninety-five supreme, actually proclaimed himself "West Tianjue Dao Yuanming Freedom Dading Hui Daqing Dharma King"!

At that time, the monk Wusi Tibetan was walking in Beijing, looking at the sky with his arms crossed, and the cow went to his grandmother's house!

Emperor Zhengde has been messing around all his life, but he didn't make a fuss, Emperor Jiajing entered the Chengtong from the side branch, this emperor is several times more pious than the previous ancestors and ancestors combined, but the monks of the Wusi Tibetan faction have a bitter face - because Jiajing's taste is different, he likes Taoism!

The degree of Jiajing's worship of Taoism is simply boundless, Taoist Tao Zhong civil official worship department Shangshu, Jiashaobao Shaofu Shaoshi, Feng Gong Chengbo; Taoist priest Shao Yuanjie official worship department Shangshu, give a crown clothes, after his death, the name actually made an exception to use four words, said "Wenkang Rongjing"; Even Yan Song, the prime minister, was favored because he wrote the "green words" of the sect and sacrificed to the heavens well, and Li Chunfang even entered the cabinet to worship the prime minister just because he could write a good green words, and the world called him the "prime minister of green words".

But what does all this have to do with the monks? Looking at the Taoist priests who are pampered, they are full of envy, jealousy and hatred in their hearts, looking at the cold ashes and embers in the temples and incense burners, they are empty, lonely and cold...... Needless to say, at this time, which Dharma King will fill the garlic cloves again, from Jiajing to Yan Song, the door will be slammed: Where are you old and where are you going, hello Dharma King, goodbye Dharma King!

However, Emperor Jiajing reigned for a particularly long time, for forty-five years, the monks of Wusizang have been unwelcome, and they are all blacker than coal.

Finally survived until Jiajing died, and after Longqing ascended the throne, he immediately abolished the Taoist Zhaijiao, and the Sanqing Temple in various places gradually became cold, and the monks began to be eager to try.

Longqing only reigned for six years, and when Wanli succeeded to the throne, he heard that the Empress Dowager Li believed in the Buddha and the Bodhisattva very much, and Wanli was also influenced by his mother, so the monks came one after another, trying to reopen the door of the Forbidden City, restore the glory of the past, and even exert some influence on the Ming court.

Wanli mother and son have rewarded the monks many times, repaired the temple where the monks are stationed, this visit of the Venerable King, in addition to creating momentum for Huang Taiji, I am afraid that the more important goal for them is to re-establish their influence in the center of the Ming Dynasty after a lapse of 60 years!

Qin Lin listened to Xu Wenchang's words, and then thought about it, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table: "Those who come are not good, and those who are good are not coming, talk about the King of Jinding Temple Welling and Huang Taiji hooking up, and the official sees that he is probably not well-intentioned!" If Empress Dowager Li is bewitched by him, it will be troublesome. ”

Xu Wenchang nodded, also with a sad face, unlike Chengzu and Xuanzong, who are rich in political experience, Empress Dowager Li was born in a small family and had a very heavy superstitious mind, while Wanli was young and shallow, and his surname was narrow.

What's more, Qin Lin and Huang Taiji and Venerable King Welling have always been hostile to each other, if the Fa King gains power, can Qin Lin still have any benefit? This group of Usizang monks is tantamount to a time bomb that explodes at any time for him.

Touching his chin, Qin Lin sneered again and again: "It seems that this official will also have to meet that Tsogyada Varpindi, hum ......."

Just do it, go back to the main hall and ask Zhu Yaoyuan, today King Weiling is preaching the Dharma in the palace again, Qin Lin asked Xu Xinyi to accompany her to go shopping to buy the statue of the auspicious Heavenly Mother Bodhisattva, and she went into the palace to find the Empress Dowager Li.

Qin Lin is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, wearing the palace waist card, the Han general and the Jinyi official school guarding the palace ban are all his subordinates, and the officers and soldiers of Jin Wuwei, Bannerman Guard, and Teng Xiang Siwei also recognize this Tianzi No. 1 big red man, and the road is naturally unimpeded, and even a few little eunuchs are stammering, bending down to lead him to Cining Palace.

Jokes, our Chief Qin often comes and goes, do you still need someone to lead the way? However, people are kind-hearted, but of course Qin Lin is disrespectful.

Unexpectedly, in front of the gate of Cining Palace, he was actually stopped.

Seeing Qin Lin coming, a lama monk on the steps turned around and went in, while the two little eunuchs walked down quickly, with a smile on their faces: "The little one greets Chief Qin!" His Majesty and the Queen Mother listened to the Buddhist scriptures inside, saying that no one was allowed to put them in, so as not to disturb His Holiness preaching. ”

Looking at the lama monk who hurried away, Qin Lin felt more and more strange in his heart, where was he willing to listen to the nonsense of these two little eunuchs? The jade pendant given by the Empress Dowager Li before was lit up: "The Empress Dowager Xu Benguan wears the palace face saint, and there is a jade pendant as evidence, please let the two of you let me!" ”

A few little eunuchs who brought Qin Lin over, these two eunuchs from Cining Palace, seeing that the jade pendant in Qin Lin's hand was indeed true, immediately admired that he really deserved to be the number one celebrity in the dynasty.

"We're just acting on orders, and when the sky falls, there's a tall man on top of it, so why bother offending General Qin?" The two eunuchs of Cining Palace discussed with each other, and they were ready to put Qin Lin in.

"Wait!"

The black and fat forehead towards the Grand Lama Nyima, hurriedly walked out of the Cining Palace, Hei Jinjin's face was sweating: "General Qin, don't trespass into the dojo and slow down the Dharma!" If you want to listen to the sermon, you have to go back to bathe and fast, burn incense sincerely for three days and three nights, and then you will be allowed to go in the next lecture. ”

"Echao Nima," Qin Lin couldn't help but smile evilly every time he said this name, and quickly looked straight, and said with a tiger face: "This official wants to meet the Queen Mother and Your Majesty, there is an urgent official report, and you have delayed the important matter of this official, then I can't say that I want to ask you to go to my Beizhen Fusi!" ”

The little eunuchs looked at each other, and they were all stunned for a while, the Great Lama of Echao Nyima had been awarded the empowerment of the great teacher, and he was still the proud disciple of the two Dharma kings, Weide and Welling, and the head of the eighteen apologetic arhats of the Jinding Temple, General Qin was unceremonious to him, if he provoked the Buddha and the Bodhisattva to condemn him, how could he get it?

Those who are well-behaved are even more secretly bitter for Qin Lin, even if the Buddha and Bodhisattva do not condemn themselves, the Cisheng Li Niangniang will definitely be unhappy in her heart when she hears about it!

The black aura flashed on Nyima's face, but he was not angry at all, and folded his hands and bowed slightly: "Om, what about it!" Buddhism opens the door for all sentient beings, preaching and propagating the Dharma is the right way, and I hope that General Qin will not be difficult, in the dojo, even the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother are fasting and bathing before coming to listen to the scriptures, if you rush in, you are afraid of colliding with the holy car. ”

Yes, it's all for the sake of colliding with the holy driver, who will not be interested? The little eunuchs who brought Qin Lin here smiled and said, "Chief Qin, please come here, let's open the way for you." ”

Qin Lin nodded with a smile, knowing that they were kind enough to give him a step.

However, Chief Qin is Chief Qin, and if he were someone else, he might just go back, but he was different, he said haha to Nima, pretended to turn around and wanted to go back, but he hurled to the steps.

Echao Nima was startled, he never dreamed that Qin Lin was such a scoundrel, he was originally strong in martial arts, he was stunned and took a step slower, hurriedly kicked the ground with both feet, and hured his body up the steps quickly, stopping in front of Qin Lin: "General Qin, you!" ”

"Haha, can't you go in the wrong direction?" Qin Lin looked into Cining Palace, and vaguely heard that someone was preaching in Sanskrit, and then wanted to go inside, and his eyes were like a copper bell for Nima.

It's not possible to break in, but Qin Lin also tried to get out, and while retreating, he thought in his heart: Strange, does Lao Tzu have flowers on his face, or is he the reincarnation of the Heavenly Demon King Apo Xun, and you are so afraid that I will break in? Fasting and bathing, I'm going back, and when I go back to fast and burn incense for three days, the daylilies are cold!

Looking at the thief Chief Qin, the eunuchs all fell down, and said in their hearts that this chief was really lazy, and it was really strange to become a big official at a young age.

Qin Lin's eight hearts and eyes turned together, and before he could come up with an idea, he heard a Sanskrit chant in Cining Palace, and a eunuch shouted: "Send the Dharma King to drive!" ”

A bright yellow satin top, purple curtain of the shoulder from the Cining Palace, sixteen lamas and monks carry a sedan chair, hundreds of people holding magic weapons to guard, mighty swarming.

Damn, such a big show? Although Zhang Juzheng's sedan chair is carried by thirty-two people, it is even bigger than this, but people only sit until the noon gate, and Ya's Wusi Tibetan god stick actually sat on the sedan chair in Cining Palace.

Qin Lin faintly said in his heart that it was not good, so it seemed that Empress Dowager Li and Wanli ...... Chief Qin, who was thinking about it, didn't notice that from the gap in the curtain of the sedan chair, a pair of eyes were looking at him, his gaze dodging.

The lamas swarmed away with King Welling, and no one stopped Qin Lin, and he was finally able to enter the Cining Palace and meet Wanli and Empress Dowager Li.

Empress Dowager Li was unusual, without the enthusiasm of the past, and after a little hesitation, she said: "General Qin, it is very good for you to do things for the imperial court, but you have killed too many people, your body is covered with blood, and the evil spirit is too heavy, and the Buddha and Bodhisattva don't like it, you see, the mourning family is here for the Buddha and Bodhisattva, so ...... in the future."
