"Xian'er, you are wrong, how can you say that you are doing bad things? This is clearly a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people. Yang Yi is like a trafficker who abducts women, inducing Li Xiangxian earnestly.

The April wind wrinkled a pool of clear waves, and Li Xiangxian's brows were slightly wrinkled.

"But Yang Lang, this is always deceiving the people, you said that Manichaeism is not allowed to do these personal things again, even if it is really for the benefit of the country and the people, but once it is exposed, won't Manichaeism have a bad reputation among the people?"

Yang Yi took a bottle of wine from the side of the bamboo tree, the bottle was painted with a beautiful picture of a lady, and Su Dongpo's poem was also printed on both sides: the glass of the South China Sea, the grapes of Yi'an.

In order to seek a celebrity effect, Han Bier used these two poems on the wine bottle decoration, and was ruthlessly cleaned up by Yang Yi several times, but I don't know why it was cleaned up, Yang Yi is not easy to say.

He poured Li Xiangxian a glass of wine, touched it lightly and said, "Xian'er, as the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger?" Nowadays, Buddhism and Taoism are in full swing, and if Manichaeism wants to develop in the cracks, it must do something. You should do your best to do this kind of thing for the benefit of the country and the people. Some things are not important, the key is to look at the results, as long as they can benefit the people, what does it matter if they make up some white lies? ”

"But if it is exposed, I am afraid that the imperial court will regard Manichaeism as a cult again......"

"No, don't worry, Xian'er, isn't there still a husband! Moreover, it is also your duty to be Manichaean in advocating diligence and thrift. Xian'er, if your Manichaean teachings simply preach that light will eventually triumph over darkness, it will be difficult for the people to accept, because this is too abstract, and must be improved according to the reality of Middle-earth, so that more people are willing to accept it. ”

Speaking of these, Li Xiangxian suddenly came to his senses, pulled up his long skirt, sat down beside Yang Yi and asked solemnly: "Yang Lang, tell me how Manichaeism should be improved." ”

"Xian'er, you are so serious, I am very unaccustomed to it, I am so unaccustomed to it!" Yang Yi smiled and hugged Li Xiangxian's shoulders and asked her to hide with herself on the mat.

The reflection of the pool water reflected on the roof of the pavilion, forming a mottled pattern, and the soft breeze blew Li Xiangxian's millet hair, flowing like a glow; After lying on her side, the curves of her body were undulating like waves, ups and downs and smooth. And the fragrance of lilies on her body is very good, which makes people feel refreshed.

"Yang Lang, say it quickly!" Li Xiangxian bit her red lips lightly, pleading in a coquettish voice, and the touching charm on her face made Yang Yi can't help but want to hug her and take good care of her.

"The doctrines of religion, like the policies of the imperial court, should be kept pace with the times, conform to the feelings of the people, and be guided in a way that is acceptable to the people. Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it has advocated extravagance, but today, many people who have suffered greatly from it have realized that extravagance and waste are harmful to them, but they can only succumb to the trend of society as a whole. ”

"Yang Lang is reasonable, you can go on."

"For example, if a family is poor, and the woman does not want to spend so much, but he is afraid of the jokes of others, or the bride price is less, the woman's family does not accept it, the dowry is less, and the man is unwilling to marry; Under all kinds of pressure, I can only grit my teeth and borrow debts, and try to make the wedding more luxurious; From this point of view, they have been kidnapped by the extravagance of society as a whole, leaving their lives in darkness. If the god of light wants to save them, he can't talk about the light, he must concretize the power of the light, that is, diligence and thrift, and only diligence and thrift can help them get out of the darkness. Xian'er, do you understand what I said? ”

How could Li Xiangxian not understand, speaking of which, Yang Yi just wanted them to stand up and vigorously advocate diligence and thrift, and then he would definitely say that the result was the key, and it didn't matter what means were used.

However, what Yang Yi said is not completely unreasonable, the teachings of Manichaeism are indeed a bit empty, and if they can be concretized, it is not a way.

Buddhism advocates the cultivation of the afterlife, while Taoism focuses on the cultivation of this life.

The Manichaean classic, Sabracan (translated into Chinese as the "Two Sects"), preaches the idea of "two sects and three worlds".

The "two realms" are light and dark, good and evil, and the "three worlds" are the past, present, and future (the beginning, middle, and future). King Ming and the gods of the Kingdom of Light fought against the demons of the Dark Kingdom led by the Demon King in the late and middle periods, and finally won a great victory at the end of the Middle Stage, the world was destroyed, and King Ming (Da Ming Zun) brought mankind back to the Kingdom of Light.

However, the light is too general for the common people to tell whether it represents the next life or this life, and it can be said that it has gone beyond the concept of "not this life, that is, the next life" of ordinary people.

If you believe in Buddhism, you can move on to the next cycle and live a happy life when you die. Believe in Taoism, as long as you cultivate well, you can ascend to the Tao, rank in the immortal class, and get eternal life.

And if you believe in Manichaeism, you will eventually get light, but where is this light? Can you make me an immortal, or let me live happily in the next life, I don't know?

With such doubts, it is natural for the people to choose to believe in the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism that can bring them more practical benefits.

It was very difficult for Manichaeism to survive in the gap between these two houses.

Li Xiangxian thought about Yang Yi's words, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt reasonable, and he couldn't extricate himself from it.

Yang Yi didn't urge her, her right hand gently slid down the moving curve from her shoulder, the thin Luo Yi couldn't block the wonderful touch, from the shoulder down, the curve became thinner and thinner, and only under the slender waist did she usher in a wave again, the buttocks were as round as the moon...... "Xian'er, but think about it, will I hurt you?" In addition to deepening the teachings, Manichaeism also needs some 'miracles' to gather popularity, so that it is possible to win more people's faith. Is that all true? ”

Li Xiangxian grabbed his hand, kissed him softly and said, "Okay! Since Yang Lang said so, the slave family will listen to you, you have to arrange it carefully, don't let people break it. ”

"Hahaha...... Xian'er, don't worry, I started by pretending to be a ghost, and playing some tricks is not easy to catch. ”

"Yang Lang is talking nonsense again, Yang Lang, you are in charge of the government and the army, and everything is a real achievement, where is it by pretending to be a god to make ghosts?"

Speaking of these, Yang Yi shook his head and sighed sincerely: "Xian'er, if you think so, you are wrong, everyone in the world has passed on my high name, in fact, the Great Song Dynasty can have today, Emperor Zhezong and Zhang Xianggong have made great contributions; Although many of the policies implemented by the imperial court are proposed by me, they are not prestigious, and if they are not forcibly implemented by Emperor Zhezong and Zhang Xianggong, they are nothing for the husband; Maxima often has, but Bole does not often have. There are many people who have ideas in this world, but there are very few people who can really turn ideas into reality, and Emperor Zhezong and Zhang Xianggong happen to be such people; Their resolute character, strong style, and strategic vision ensure that the policies proposed by the husband can be implemented, if the husband is compared with them, the husband is like an idealist, and Emperor Zhezong and Zhang Xianggong are doers. Meeting them is a great blessing for her husband in this life. ”

Li Xiangxian gently leaned into his arms and said softly: "Yang Lang doesn't have to be humble, other slaves don't know, slaves only know that it is a great luck for Xian'er to meet Yang Lang in this life." ”

"Hehe, why did you come here again, isn't it a great fortune to be able to meet Xian'er, only for your husband you owe Xian'er, Xian'er you don't owe anything to your husband......"

"Owe! The slave owes Yang Lang for the rest of his life. ”

Li Xiangxian stretched out her arms and hugged him tightly, quietly listening to the powerful beating of his heart, the sound could bring her a sense of peace.

The summer breeze blows the pomegranate tree outside the pavilion, and many flower buds have already bloomed on the tree, and maybe tomorrow it will bloom full of red flowers.

In the evening, Yang Yi went to Ma Hanqing's mansion, and when he opened the door, he saw Mulan standing in the door wearing red makeup, looking a little embarrassed.

Yang Yi looked her up and down, and suddenly laughed: "I really didn't expect it!" Hua Qingtian put on red makeup and looked like this, if it was seen by the people of Guazhou, I don't know how they would feel, hahaha......"

Hua Mulan slammed the door, turned around and ran away angrily and ashamedly, which made Yang Yi's laughter even more unscrupulous.

Hua Mulan married Ma Hanqing in November last year, when Yang Yi was still in Japan and could not attend the wedding of the two.

Hua Mulan once followed Yang Yi to fight in Hexi, and she has always been neither big nor small in front of him, but after marrying a wife this time, she finally knew that she was shy, which made Yang Yi feel very interesting.

At this time, Ma Hanqing came out of the hall and said from afar: "Why is the adult here?" ”

Yang Yi's eyes widened, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Your daughter-in-law treats each other at the door, listening to your words, it seems that I am not welcomed, it is really not that a family does not enter the door, and the husband and wife have a virtue." ”

"My lord, look at what you said, your subordinates mean that if your lord has something, send someone to pass on a message......"

"I can't come if it's okay? I don't bother to listen to your explanation, if you don't let your daughter-in-law cook good dishes today, I have to smash your nest. ”

Ma Hanqing couldn't cry or laugh, so he could only make amends one by one, invited him into the hall, and was busy serving tea and water.

There was only a pillar of incense, and several fragrant dishes were brought to the table, and Yang Yi took a bite of it first, it tasted good, and Yang Yi couldn't help but praise it.

Hua Mulan was about to avoid the good dishes, Yang Yi smiled and said, "Hua Qingtian, when we march and fight, do we have less food in one pot?" What do you want to avoid with me at this time? Don't think I don't know you if you put on red makeup......"

When Yang Yi said this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Originally, Hua Mulan didn't plan to be polite to him, but after all, she was married to a wife, and she had to take care of Ma Hanqing's face, so she had to avoid it, hearing Yang Yi say this, she was angry and didn't leave!

Ma Hanqing also smiled and said: "Adults are not outsiders, so let's sit down and eat together." ”

"Don't you sit down?" This is the first sentence that Yang Yi has heard since he entered the door, and he really does not change his true character as a heroine.

Yang Yi couldn't help but point at Ma Hanqing and joked: "Hanqing, there is a fierce wife at home, how does this feel?" Hahaha......"

"I also said that others, I don't have to hide from embroidery needles all day long!"

Hua Mulan's fluttering words choked Yang Yi half to death, and finally relieved her breath, and sighed sincerely: "Hua Qingtian, it seems that it is a mistake to ask you to stay and dine together." ”

"I don't know until now, it's too late!"
