Chapter 188: What if she wanted to be Wu Zetian?
Lingmeng Fan thought of a lot, but he didn't expect Emperor Maud to say such a thing.
Let's not say that the current situation of Buddhism is not good-looking, and Zhao Ji does not like the existence of Buddhism.
Besides, she is an emperor, and she is not a prince, so what's the use of asking for the support of Buddhism?
Countless questions converged in his heart, and even made Ling Mengfan wonder if he had heard it wrong, or if Emperor Maud had said it wrong.
After a strange silence in the middle of the night, Lingmengfan's expression stiffened slightly: "Emperor Ji said that he laughed, my Buddhism ......."
Before Lingmeng Fan finished speaking, Emperor Mao De suddenly asked, "I don't know if the current situation of the Zen Master Wuming is okay. ”
Zen Master Wuming!
Hearing this, Reimu Fan couldn't calm down anymore.
Her pupils constricted to the extreme, and she looked at Emperor Maud in disbelief, her heart pounding.
The matter of the enlightened Zen master is the key to the next plan of Buddhism. And even within Buddhism, there are only a few people who know the true situation of Wuming Zen Master, all of them are Buddhist monks, and it is absolutely impossible to leak the news, let alone reveal it to Emperor Maode.
However, where did Emperor Maude know about this news, and how much did she know about Buddhism?
In an instant, Lingmeng Fan even gave birth to a killing machine.
The interests of Buddhism are paramount, and she cannot allow the plan to fail, let alone allow the matter to deviate. However, she quickly calmed down, since this matter was proposed by Emperor Maude, it means that the news has been leaked, and Emperor Maude is not the only one who knows.
Even if he killed Emperor Maode, Yu Buddhism's plan would not help.
After a brief moment of shock and contemplation, Reimu quickly calmed down again. Only this time, her face was a little more serious, and she said in a condensed voice: "What does Emperor Ji want." ”
Emperor Maude's smile became more and more gentle, and she didn't pay attention to Lingmengfan's question, but instead changed the topic: "Buddhism is isolated and helpless, and it has to face the pressure of the Quanzhen Sect and the Zhengyi Sect. And although the palace is soft-spoken, it is barely a little capable, and it can say a few good words for you in front of your father. ”
Reimu's expression changed, and he didn't answer.
She naturally knows that today's officials do not like Buddhism, and can even be said to be quite disgusted. And for today's officials who are so disgusted with Buddhism, Lin Lingsu, the current head of the Zhengyi Church, undoubtedly has the greatest credit.
Therefore, Buddhism does not have any good feelings about the Zhengyi Sect, which is now in full swing, and the powerful Quanzhen Sect. It's just that their strength is too weak compared to them, and they can only choose to back down in the face of the pressure of the two religions.
And there is no one in the court, which is undoubtedly the biggest shortcoming of Buddhism now.
Without the support of the imperial court, Buddhism would be a bit unjustifiable in doing anything. After all, this country is still the world of the Great Song Dynasty royal family, and it is the place where the people of the world yearn for it.
Without waiting for Lingmeng Fan to think about the problem, Emperor Mao De had already begun to send off the guests: "This palace is a little tired today, and I will find a fairy to listen to Zen tomorrow." ”
Until she left the palace, Reimun Fan did not wake up from the shock brought by Emperor Maude.
She looked back at the golden imperial city, but she couldn't help but feel a chill to her bones, as if an ancient beast that had been sleeping but not sleeping, could jump out and devour the world at any time.
Ay.
Lingmengfan sighed and left the confines of the imperial city with a solemn mood.
However, she did not go to Kimbo Temple, but came to Daxiangguo Temple. Because she needs to meet someone, the Zen master who is dead in the eyes of most people!
Daxiangguo Temple, a hidden meditation room.
The meditation room is quiet, and there is a pitch-black sculpture that is the sculpture of the Zen master Wuming. The weirdest thing is that if you stare at the sculpture for a long time, you feel as if the sculpture is a living thing, staring at yourself tightly, giving people heavy pressure.
"Why is the fairy so preoccupied?"
Reimengfan sat in front of the sculpture and was speechless for a long time. Suddenly, a sound of doubt sounded from the dead sculpture.
"Something's wrong."
Ling Mengfan smiled bitterly and told him about meeting Emperor Maude today.
When Zen Master Wuming heard this, he laughed and said, "Haha, the fairy is really in the midst of blessing and does not know blessing." My Buddhism is already like this, so why bother too much. If Emperor Maude is favored, if he can get the support of Emperor Ji, it will undoubtedly be a good thing for my Buddhism, and it is also a big thing. As for the purpose of the emperor. ”
Speaking of this, Wuming Zen Master paused slightly, and said in a mysterious voice: "Even if she wants to be Wu Zetian, what does it have to do with my Buddhism?" ”
Lingmengfan was stunned, and he didn't react at half-sound.
Wu Zetian!
Impossible!
Maude Emperor would have this ambition, this, this.
Reimum had never thought that Emperor Maud would have such an idea, because it was unrealistic. The Song Dynasty was not the Tang Dynasty, and the Emperor of the Song Dynasty could not be compared with the Tang Dynasty.
Moreover, now that science is becoming more and more prosperous, even if Emperor Mao De has great ability, how can he get the support of any Confucian disciples. Besides, she is just an emperor, not a prince, and she is not qualified to compete for the throne at all.
Wu Zetian!
Unless you are crazy, you will have this kind of dream.
Lingmengfan was stunned for a moment before retorting: "Whether the Zen Master of Wuming is too worried, as Emperor Maode, there is absolutely nothing. ”
"Hey, don't the fairies understand, this is no longer the era of Confucianism, the era of deposing the hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism has passed. The present belongs to the time of the gods, and the future belongs to the gods as well. Zen Master Wuming sighed, as if he was blaming the Reimeng Fan.
Age of the Gods!
Lingmeng Fan's mind was like a thunderbolt exploding, and he finally understood where Emperor Maode's confidence was, and why she wanted to cooperate with Buddhism.
As Emperor Maude said, Buddhism lacked supporters in the court. And Emperor Maud needs the support of the gods, otherwise it is impossible to participate in the battle for the throne. This is a mutually beneficial cooperation and one that is vital to Buddhism.
As for looking for other princes to cooperate, Ling Mengfan didn't think about it, but quickly rejected the idea.
Not to mention that most of those princes could not disobey Zhao Ji for the sake of Buddhism, even if someone wanted to take advantage of the situation to compete for the throne, it was not as advantageous as Emperor Maode.
After all, today, who doesn't know that Emperor Mao De is the most favored daughter of the official family, and even publicly promised to let her choose her own husband.
Although this seems to be a trivial matter, the grace contained in it is enough to make most princes and emperors envy to tears.
"Tomorrow, the emperor will definitely invite you to the palace again, and you can negotiate with her with confidence when the time comes. You just need to remember that there is no way back for my Buddhism, and that's it. Zen Master Wuming's voice was solemn, revealing unquestionable firmness.
His words also made Lingmeng Fan's delicate body tremble slightly, and shock flashed in his eyes.
Because the words of the enlightened Zen master are already obvious.
Do whatever it takes to get the support of Emperor Maud!
