Zhang Hongren is only in his twenties now, and the talent he has shown since he was a child has made him deeply recognized by the relatives of the Heavenly Master's Mansion. This time, Zhang Tianshi brought him with him in Beijing, so that he could be familiar with him in front of all the dignitaries and nobles, so that he could inherit the talisman sword in the future and smoothly take over the Heavenly Master's Law Seal.

As a thousand-year-old family, the Heavenly Master's Mansion has enough foundation to provide Zhang Hongren with the most haode metaphysical education. Whether it is divination and astrology, or Kanyu array diagram, or even medical boxing, Zhang Hongren has been involved. Because he has enough resources, he can take many detours less than others, so he feels that he has the means.

In order to face the questions that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may raise, Zhang Hongren worked the moral classics before the audience, hoping that he could be elected to the side of the prince and become a first-class figure of the great power teacher.

"Do you know the human heart?"

When Zhang Hongren heard the prince ask such a question, his head instantly swelled, and his heart turned around thousands of times, and he said secretly: Could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to play the game of "Seven Hearts" when he comes up? That's what the monks played!

"Do you know all kinds of possessiveness and vanity that arise from birth, old age, sickness and death?" Zhu Cihong said it more clearly.

When Zhang Hongren heard this, he suddenly relaxed. Regarding the relationship between mind and desire, and the method of disposing of it, although the Quanzhen Taoist priest is more authoritative, it does not mean that there is no relevant content in Zhengyi. Zhang Hongren immediately recited the expositions of the sages and patriarchs in large paragraphs, fluently and smoothly.

"Your voice is not bad." Zhu Cihong nodded.

- Is it just a good sound?

Zhang Hong was stunned.

"But this nonsense doesn't mean anything to me." Zhu Cihong said in a calm tone: "I don't want to listen to you, but to see what you do." ”

"What does Your Highness want to do?" Zhang Hongren asked with hope.

"Go preach." Zhu Cihong was simple and clear: "It's as simple as letting the people believe what you say." ”

Zhang Hongren was stunned again.

Whether it is Taoism or Buddhism, it has always been a stronghold-style mission. Even when I came to visit the Christian, I was going for the sesame oil money. In a word, there are many people in the Taoist Buddhism who practice good deeds, but they do not have much heart to save the world and help the people.

"And your doctrine must be changed, and don't scare people with hell or anything like that." Zhu Cihong said: "I remember that Taoism has a bearing on the burden, and this point can be taken out and talked about well." ”

Since Emperor Jiajing, most of the emperors of Huangming have been biased towards Taoism. Chongzhen also personally went to the altar to pay homage to the ancestral heavenly master. Although there are also many concubines who believe in Buddhism, the orthodoxy of the royal family is still biased towards Taoism. Therefore, when Zhu Cihong was young, he had read many Taoist collections in Da Nei, and he had a slight understanding of Taoist theory.

Of course, it is impossible for a pragmatist like Zhu Cihong to devote himself to the path of tranquility, he is just looking for an ideological weapon that can be used in the vast Taoist treasure.

The "Taiping Sutra" written in the Eastern Han Dynasty clouds: "The inheritor is the first, and the loser is the last; The inheritor, is said that the ancestors inherited the heart of heaven and walked, a small loss, do not know it, with a long time, get together for a lot, the future of the living people against the innocent by its fault, even the transmission of its disaster, so the former is the inheritance, the latter is negative. The negative one, the flow of disasters is not governed by one person, than even uneven, before and after more negative, hence the name of negative. The loser is the one who loses to the one who is born after him. ”

To put it simply, it is the heavens that calculate the rewards and punishments for the good and evil accumulated by individuals and their families.

"Buddhism's theory of the six realms of reincarnation and the bliss of rebirth has corroded the hearts of the people, so many countries in the world that worship Buddha have perished." Zhu Cihong said: "And the saying of the way of heaven can persuade people to be kind, even if they have to endure some hardships, their children and grandchildren can enjoy blessings, which is much higher." ”

The Taiping Sutra is an important classic of the Heavenly Master's Dao, and Zhang Hongren is of course only more familiar with it than Zhu Cihong, and the insights he has heard are more profound. From the heart of the Taoist priests, they don't believe in the reincarnation of monks, but fools and fools believe that, if you don't say reincarnation, people will think you are a liar. Who is helpless to say?

"Your Highness, fools always feel that this life is hopeless, so they hope in the next life. How can this lazy heart be saved? Zhang Hongren couldn't help asking, completely forgetting that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's profession is the emperor's reserve, not a Taoist priest.

Fortunately, Zhu Cihong is quite accomplished in the field of human resources, and immediately replied with the thinking of motivating employees: "Who said that there is no hope in this life? If you are human, you will have three disasters and four misfortunes, right? As long as they go to your palace to confess and repent, there will be blessings in the world! For example, when they are sick, you give them medicine. When there is a disaster in the house, you give them money. If the turnover is not good, you go to help them, isn't this the blessing of the world! ”

"Your Royal Highness......" Zhang Hong was speechless for a while, and secretly said in his heart: This item is all silver! I only heard that the monks eat ten squares, how can anyone come to support the lay people?

"I know that you regard the dojo as a profession, but whether it is the Zhengyipin Heavenly Master who has been in the past and generations is important, or those silver coins are important, think about it yourself." Zhu Cihong's face gradually became cold: "The wide distribution of believers is the significance of your Zhang family to the imperial court, if you sacrifice your foundation and lose the believers, what is the use of the imperial court raising you?" Today's words, I will naturally say to the monks, in the future, whoever wins the hearts of the people, I will convert to whose sect, and the court will support whomever family, you have to think about these clearly. ”

Zhang Hongren had shallow experience in the end, and was pulled and pushed by Zhu Cihong, his mood was ups and downs, and he completely bowed to the prince. Once Taoism declines, the most direct victim is the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and of course he can't watch the prince go to Buddhism. Zhang Hongren hurriedly said: "Xiaodao understands, let's go back and explain it clearly with my father, and restore the way of the ancestor Heavenly Master." ”

Zhu Cihong nodded: "I know your Zhang family's concerns, you can also tell Zhang Tianshi, just say I said: as long as you pass on the way of loyalty and filial piety to the believers, and live up to the three hundred years of imperial grace of my Zhu family, you can reset the rule of law and appoint Taoist officials, as long as you strictly abide by the laws of the imperial court." ”

The establishment of Fang Zhi, the appointment of sacrificial wine, and even the compilation of Qi people, this is what Zhang Daoling has done, and he once controlled the land of Bashu because of this. Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it has become a common method used by anti-thieves to bewitch the people with gods and ghosts and impose rule by prescriptions. In order to prevent the slightest deterioration, the imperial court naturally refused to let the Longhu Mountain Heavenly Master Mansion do what their ancestors had done again.

The reason why Zhu Cihong dared to say such things was because he saw farther than most people in this era.

He knew that religion could not lose its vitality until human beings controlled their own life and death. Instead of trapping the Orthodox Christians in a cage because of choking and waste, it is better to let them out and fight the cult. Not only does it hold the divine power in its own hands, but it also has an immeasurable complementary effect on intelligence and the stability of the rule.

Today, there are only seven months before Li Chuang is about to enter Beijing, and the Manchus are also eyeing the pie. The people in various places are in turmoil, and instead of tying up the Zhang family, it is better to let them stir up the water in this pond even more. The worst result is nothing more than one more ground snake, and the seven inches of this ground snake are still pinched by the prince in his hand.
