Chapter 762: Micro Service Patrol
readx;?“ Your Majesty has a point! ”
Xu Chongguang has been in the officialdom for so long, so he naturally knows how to follow the direction to brush the donkey's hair so that he will not be teased. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lu Chengqi knew that he was starting to play tricks, and he didn't expose it. At this time, there is no one else, and if you admit it, you will admit it. If Lu Chengqi decides to "destroy the Buddha" in the future, if he doesn't express his position, Lu Chengqi can't help him. Now that Jiangnan wants him to preside, his waist is much stiffer, and the little emperor will not change generals because of this, right?
has been an emperor for three years, and Lu Chengqi can also see Xu Chongguang's thoughts, so naturally he will not break it. And his original intention was not to "destroy the Buddha", but to suppress the Buddha. Buddhism's original intention is to persuade people to be good, which is very good, and you can listen to one or two. But if you don't eat meat, don't marry a wife, and don't have children, this won't work. Everyone thinks it's good to be a monk, and if you become a monk, can Dashun still develop! If you want to progress, you must suppress the Buddha. Suppressing Buddhism is very simple, controlling the number of degrees, not promoting Buddhism, and leviing taxes on monks, so naturally there will be fewer people.
Of course, this may also be "mistakenly hit by the sub-car", and Taoism, Zhengyijiao, etc. may be injured by mistake, and there is no way to do it. Religion is such a thing, those who believe in it naturally believe it, and those who don't believe it naturally don't believe it, so there is nothing to fight about. Lu Chengqi is fortunate that the readers of this era are rarely religious, and they all read the books of sages and sages. That is to say, we should stay away from ghosts and gods. If you stay away, how can you believe it?
If they really believe in God, they only believe in saints. For example, Zi said: "Filial piety is to the gods, light is in the four seas, and everything is all-encompassing." If you use gods and Buddhas to understand this sentence, it will definitely not make sense. So what does it mean to "know everything from the gods"? A god is a god who knows what people don't know, and he who sees what people don't see is a god. "The Four Classics of the Yellow Emperor, the Sutras, and the Name": "The gods are within the degree and those who are outside the degree." "To pass through the gods is to lead to the way. The saint is through the gods, so he is holy. In other words, the purpose of Confucianism has always been to become a god and become holy. But this God, this holy, is different from God and holyness in the ordinary sense. He is not an immortal, but a mortal, he does not have the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, but he can understand the affairs of the world. There is only one person who truly leads by example and passes on this "way", and he is a god who has attained enlightenment and sanctification. What is this "Tao"? "The Analects of Confucius": "Zi said: Tell but not do, believe and be ancient, and steal more than my old Peng", that is to say, Confucius's truth was not invented by him, but relayed the words of the ancient sages. Because this truth was discovered by the ancient sages, not invented. China has endured for thousands of years because of the endless emergence of saints!
This is the mystery of Chinese civilization, people can become gods and saints through learning, so the Han people only respect their ancestors. Some gods and Buddhas are also incarnated by ancestors. But after Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains, all this seemed to have become chaotic, so there was a dispute between Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in the Jin Dynasty. It was also at this time that Buddhism was truly integrated into the culture of the Central Plains, and began to propagate the creation of cause and effect, persuading people to be good, in order to achieve good retribution in the next life. But this has a negative side, which is mostly accepted by the lower classes of ordinary people. Especially when the people are struggling to make a living, the people are more willing to pin their hopes on this. However, this is in conflict with the Chinese civilization, because Confucianism pays attention to "accession to the WTO", assists the king, and educates the people, rather than blindly avoiding the world.
Therefore, there is a very interesting phenomenon in China for thousands of years, when Buddhism flourished in troubled times, Buddhism died down in prosperous times. Come to think of it, everyone can live, live a happy life, have a job to do, where is the time to believe in Buddhism!
Anyone who reads this truth understands it, but some rulers refuse to wake up, so they want to pursue immortality. As a Confucian scholar, Xu Chongguang naturally understands this truth. Inside, he is also very disdainful of Buddhism. Take a sentence from the poet Han Yu in the former dynasty: "The people of Buddha Benyi Di do not understand the Chinese language, and their clothes are different." The mouth does not speak the words of the previous king, the body does not obey the law of the first king, and does not know the righteousness of the minister, the love of father and son, so it is not appropriate to worship ......"
Han Yu also quipped: "If the Buddha has a spirit, he can do trouble, and if there is a disaster, he should be punished." It shows that Confucianism's attitude towards Buddhism has always been disdainful. Buddhism represents the faith of the working class, and no matter how powerful Confucianism is, it can only be suppressed, but it cannot be truly "eradicated". Lu Chengqi knows that existence is the truth, and since Buddhism can have a market in China, it must have its own set. As for why there was no market for Christianity later, it is estimated that everyone could not believe in foreign monks!
Lu Chengqi told Xu Chongguang about some things in Jiangnan again, and Xu Chongguang retired. Xu Chongguang is now entangled in everything, and it is not enough to have three heads and six arms, so naturally he will not stay in the vertical arch hall for long. Lu Chengqi was happy, looked at the sky, and found that it was almost noon.
My heart moved: "Today is the eighth day of the first lunar month, I want to come to the temple fair, why don't I go out and have a look?" He hadn't been out of the palace for a long time, and he wanted to observe the people's situation up close, so he called Gao Hao and Wang Yanchen, brought a few imperial guards, and didn't need to change his clothes, so he asked an inner servant to go to Kunning Hall to tell Zhou Zhiruo's whereabouts, and then went out of the palace from Yanfu Palace and went directly to the street of Chang'an City.
"It's really a lively day!"
When he came to the market, Lu Chengqi looked at all kinds of vendors, and he had an illusion that he had returned to the afterlife. Selling snacks, daily necessities, and gouache...... The whole nine yards. Lu Chengqi mocked in his heart: "If it is in the future life, this place will definitely be taken care of by the city management!" It's still a human touch in this era, and even Chidao deliberately chooses to avoid the market, so as not to compete with the people......"
Thinking about the inactive urban management in later generations, Lu Chengqi was not only ridiculed but also ridiculed. The city is not well planned and does not know how to be flexible. If there is an agglomeration effect like this, and there are vendors in a crowd, where will anyone go to do business elsewhere? It is better to be blocked, the ancients all understood, but the people of later generations lived more and more and went back!
In front of the Great Solemn Temple, it is full of people, although it is close to noon, the sun is scorching, but it can not stop the enthusiastic people.
Lu Chengqi noticed that some "tooth people" dressed as monks were contacting buyers and customers to do "business". After watching it for a while, he suddenly remembered something, Lu Chengqi squeezed in and asked a hawker: "Little brother, how is the business?" ”
The peddler was twenty-five or sixteen years old, but the ancients were old, and he probably only looked like twenty-one or twelve. "Officials, the small ones do some business, and they also support their families. The temple fair is thriving, and the income is okay......" replied heartily to the vendor. (To be continued.) )
