Chapter 1355 It's better to punish people than to punish people
Receiving the emperor is different from receiving ordinary pilgrims, and when Liu Wei worships the Buddha statue, the host hurriedly asks people to clean up a good side room.
Accompanied by the host, he entered the wing room, and Liu Wei looked around the furnishings in the room, which was quite elegant and had a bit of Buddhist style.
Sitting in the wing, Liu Wei glanced at Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, Wang Zhen strode out of the room, stood at the door with a sword, and took away several guards guarding the door, while Wang Liu stood straight behind Liu Wei, and a pair of beautiful eyes did not move away from the host's body for a moment.
was stared at by Wang Liu, and the host was full of apprehension.
is not young, but in the face of the young emperor in front of him, the host does not dare to be abrupt.
Sitting on the first seat, Liu Wei stared at the host and asked him, "How is the incense in the temple?" ”
Liu Wei asked about the incense, and the host's face darkened again, and he lowered his head and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the incense is always not good......"
Holding his chin in his hand, Liu Wei nodded, and pondered for a moment before saying to the host: "I hope that the incense here will be vigorous!" ”
Hearing Liu Wei say that he hoped that the incense would be strong here, the host hurriedly raised his head and looked at him expectantly, his mouth moved, but he didn't dare to say it.
"I don't know what you think, why is Zhongjun? Why is it patriotic? Seeing the expectation on the host's face, Liu Wei smiled slightly, and suddenly asked him such a sentence.
was asked by Liu Wei, the host was stunned for a moment and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the monarch is the foundation of the country, loyalty to the monarch is patriotism, patriotism is loyalty to the monarch!" ”
Obviously, Liu Wei was very satisfied with the host's answer, and he kept a faint smile on his face and said, "What if someone intends to kill the monarch and be in the company of thieves?" ”
"Everyone in the world suffers from reincarnation, no matter how high or low, they will enter the path of reincarnation after death!" Bowing down, the host said to Liu Wei: "If you rebel against the monarch and commit the following crimes, you will definitely enter the hell of Ah Bi and suffer endless suffering!" ”
When the host said this, the smile on Liu Bian's face was even bigger, he stood up, waved his hand at him and said, "That's it!" That's it! I also know the deep meaning of your words. From now on, you will often enter the palace and talk to me about the Dharma and the world! ”
I wanted to use Liu Bian's tribute to come here to pay tribute and get involved with the royal family, but when I heard Liu Bian say that he could enter the palace from time to time, the host hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the old monk remembers it!" ”
"If you are not kind, don't talk about him!" Looking at the host, Liu Wei said to him: "I just hope you don't forget what you just said, promote Buddhism, and preach the things of loyalty and patriotism!" ”
"Old monk remember!" knelt on the ground and made a big salute to Liu Wei, and the host agreed.
Feeling that there was no need to stay in the temple for too long, Liu Wei turned around and walked to the door of the wing, and when he came to the door, he did not forget to explain to the host: "Don't forget to enter Luoyang City and go to the palace to find me." ”
"No!" The host knelt and turned around, facing Liu Wei, and knelt down again in response.
Liu Wei left the wing, and the host still maintained a kneeling posture, and did not get up for a long time.
The monks who were waiting outside saw Liu Wei and the others leaving, and only a few big monks dared to enter this room.
When he entered the wing, he found that the host was still kneeling on the ground, and the two big monks hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.
"Master, Your Majesty is gone!" Helping up the host, a great monk said: "Your Majesty just came to offer incense, and did not leave any incense money......
"Shut up!" Before the great monk finished speaking, the host broke him off and said to the monks in the room: "Your Majesty has sent me a way to live, the Dharma is boundless, and it can only be promoted from today onwards!" ”
As soon as the presiding officer said this, a guard who followed Liu Wei out of the temple returned to the door of the wing.
"Can you host here?" Standing at the door, the guard knew that the host was in the house, but he deliberately asked.
"In!" Hearing the guard ask him if he was there, the host hurriedly answered, and greeted him at the door with the support of several big monks, and asked the guard tremblingly: "What is the matter with the military master?" ”
Standing at the door with the hilt of the sword in his hand, he looked at the host from head to toe, and the guard said: "Your Majesty has a will, this temple is named White Horse Temple, and the name of the temple is changed!" ”
Liu Wei just walked around the temple, put on a stick of incense, and changed the name of the temple, the host was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, knelt on the ground and shouted: "The old monk is grateful!" ”
The host knelt down, and all the great monks also knelt on the ground.
There were monks kneeling in the room, and the guards turned to leave after preaching Liu Wei's will.
It wasn't until the guards walked away that the monks stood up.
Leaving the White Horse Temple and returning to Luoyang City, Liu Wei was full of pride.
On horseback, he even shook his head a little.
His demeanor made Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, who were following behind, feel a little strange, but it was difficult to ask.
Sensing the doubts in the hearts of the two, Liu Wei turned back to them and grinned and asked, "But do you think I'm a little weird?" ”
When he asked this, Wang Liu and Wang Zhen nodded.
The two just nodded, and did not take Liu Wei's words, but just looked at him with doubts.
grinning, Liu Wei said: "There is only one reason why people in the world dare to disobey their ministers and disrespect the monarch, that is, they have no awe!" ”
Following behind Liu Wei, listening to what he said, Wang Liu and Wang Zhen's faces were confused.
The two sisters really couldn't figure out what it had to do with a mere temple to make people feel awe.
"Your Majesty, if you want people to be in awe, but anyone who dares to provoke the imperial power will be killed!" After walking a few more steps, Wang Zhen spoke: "How can this temple make people feel awe? ”
"You can't wait!" Smiling and waving his hand, Liu Wei said to Wang Zhen: "It's better to punish people than to punish people!" Even if I kill all the rebels in the world, there will be many more rebels. But mortals have a heart of disobedience, that is, they are not afraid of life and death, how can I kill them all? ”
In his early years, he followed Liu Bian's side, and he also experienced battles and battles, and the two sisters Wang Liu and Wang Zhen also knew that what Liu Biao said was not unreasonable.
But they still can't understand how a mere White Horse Temple can make people feel awe.
"Can you believe that if a person dies, there will be an afterlife?" While walking forward, Liu Wei asked Wang Liu and Wang Zhen a question.
The two sisters glanced at each other and nodded.
Although they have not been exposed to the doctrine of gods and Buddhas, they have heard some theories about reincarnation from Taoists, and they do not have much doubt that people will have an afterlife after death.
"Buddhism pays attention to reincarnation, believing that if a person dies, he will definitely enter the path of reincarnation!" Turning his head to look at the two of them, when he turned around, Liu Wei continued: "The way of reincarnation is not completely reincarnated as a human, in addition to humanity, there is also animal nature. What I want is to promote Buddhism here, to tell the world the truth of loyalty and patriotism, if you disobey the way of the monarch and the minister, you will suffer endless suffering after death! But whoever has reverence in his heart, when he thinks of the suffering that will be suffered after death, he is afraid that he is already discouraged! ”
It wasn't until Liu Wei made these explanations that Wang Liu and Wang Zhen suddenly realized.
Going to the White Horse Temple to make incense, Liu Wei was not simply to recall the time when he fled from Luoyang, but wanted to use this place to promote the vast and promote the way of loyalty to the king, in order to achieve the effect of punishing the hearts of the people of the world!
As the team was walking back, Liu Wei saw a group of people coming over.
The men and horses were dressed in red armor, with golden feathers stuck in their helmets, and each soldier was a burly soldier, and it was clear at a glance that they were warriors who had been through a hundred battles.
"Why did the Dragoon Guards come?" Seeing the oncoming team, Liu Wei frowned slightly, and muttered to himself.
Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, who followed him, also looked puzzled.
When they left the city, they didn't tell anyone, how did the dragoons get the news and leave the city in a hurry?
It was Deng Zhan who led the team to meet him.
Knowing that Liu Wei had left the city, Deng Zhan didn't dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly ordered Qi Long to ride the guards and horses, and went out of the city to find Liu Wei.
He didn't know what Liu Wei wanted to do when he left the city, the only thing he knew was that Liu Wei left Luoyang City and there were not enough guards with him.
Although Liu Wei was accompanied by Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, with the swordsmanship of the two, ordinary swordsmen could not help Liu Wei, but Deng Zhan always felt uneasy in his heart, where could he still sit still in the barracks.
Originally, he thought that it would take a lot of trouble to find Liu Wei and others when he left Luoyang City, but he didn't expect that as soon as he got out of the city, he met Liu Wei and others.
Seeing Liu Wei, he clamped his legs hard towards the horse's belly, and sped up to meet him.
"Why did General Deng come here?" Deng Zhan had just arrived, and before he could salute, Liu Wei asked him a question.
"Majesty!" Holding his fists and saluting Liu Wei, Deng Zhan said: "The last general learned that His Majesty was out of the city, but he was afraid that there would be insufficient guards beside him, so he specially led the dragoon guards to escort him!" ”
Turning around and glancing at the guards behind him, Liu Wei blinked his eyes twice, and said to Deng Zhan: "When I left Luoyang, there were as many as 100 guards with me, even if I encountered assassins on the road, it would be enough to deal with ......."
"Your Majesty, please listen to the last general's words!" Before Liu could speak, Deng Zhan didn't care about the etiquette of the monarch and the minister, interrupted him and said: "Now His Majesty is the Ninth Five-Year Honor, and he will move the entire Han Dynasty, and I hope that His Majesty will not want to play with children!" ”
Unexpectedly, Deng Zhan dared to say that he was child's play in front of so many people, Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, and a trace of anger instantly arose in his heart.
But after thinking about it, Deng Zhan was also doing good for him, so he suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and said to Deng Zhan: "The general is reasonable, I remember!" ”
When Deng Zhan interrupted Liu's speech, Wang Liu and Wang Zhen both pinched a cold sweat for him.
When they found that Liu Wei did not show annoyance, they let out a long breath, and when they looked at Deng Zhan, they also looked relieved.
