"Say it and ask King Xia not to make fun of it, the four holy monks of Buddhism found my master a few days ago and said: 'If there is chaos today, and the people are in misery, only King Xia takes advantage of the situation to rise up, destroy the chaos and destroy the strong, take advantage of the time to save the drowning, celebrate the Taoism, and Yangze Qiongmin. 'It is the reincarnation of the King of Xia for the King of Sanssouci, how should he own the world. ”

The concubine said this lightly, wearing a light green robe blowing in the wind, indescribably leisurely and elegant, and calm. There is an elegantly shaped ancient sword hanging on her back, which adds to her heroic aura, as if to remind others that she has unparalleled swordsmanship in the world.

Ye Kegao sat on the main seat, his eyes crossed, and he looked at the concubine with a look of disbelief.

Yes, in the end, Ye Ke still met with Concubine Xuan, but not outside the city, but in the Xia Palace.

Ye Ke originally thought that the concubine Xuan came here to be a lobbyist for Li Tang, or to plan for Li Shimin's future, but he never expected that she would come over and show that Buddhism had begun to support Ye Ke, which couldn't help but surprise him.

Looking at Ye Ke's eyes, Concubine Xuan also smiled bitterly.

Buddhism has never been a fool who has come to the end with a tendon, on the contrary, they judge the situation and are no worse than those family valves.

In particular, the four holy monks are the most prestigious monks in Buddhism, and they are considered to be real cultivators, they originally did not follow the earthly world and devoted themselves to cultivating Buddhism, if it were not for the pure thought of Zen Buddhism and was killed by Ye Ke Temple, they would never appear in the rivers and lakes.

Ye Ke occupied Luoyang and destroyed the Ningnian Monastery, and other Buddhist monasteries also suffered a lot of blows, causing the Buddhist monks to discuss how to choose.

But soon the news came that the Xia army under Ye Ke not only destroyed the Turks, killed Chuluo Khan, but also broke through the Weize Pass, and the troops approached Taiyuan, the base camp of the Li Valve.

By this time, the form of unification of the world has appeared, except for those whose brains are caught by the door, people of insight can see that the person who unifies the world is none other than Ye Ke, the king of Xia.

At this moment, Buddhism immediately abandoned Li Valve, and invited the four holy monks to persuade Cihang to Jingzhai, for the world, for the people, for Buddhism, only by waving the flag behind Ye Ke, Buddhism can survive.

Otherwise, if Buddhism still blindly supports Li Valve, I am afraid that the day Ye Ke ascends the throne, Buddhism will be the time of the end of the Dharma.

"You're looking for me this time just to talk about this?"

Ye Ke looked at the senior concubine and said lightly.

"Yes, the four holy monks have profound Buddhism and can see through the world, and Cihang Jingzhai also believes that King Xia blesses all the people, and of course he is the master of wisdom. ”

Ye Ke looked disdainful: "What does it have to do with me if you decide it or not?" Now that I cover an area of thousands of miles, have hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and rule tens of millions of people, I use work for relief, build water conservancy, gallop roads, and greatly promote industry, commerce, agriculture and mulberry, and the people of the world all support me. Besides, He's Bi is in my hands, and at this time, do you think I still need the support of your Buddhism?"

Concubine Xuan's face did not change, and she said lightly: "In the thirty years of the emperor's rule, Buddhism has flourished, the world is strong, and there are many people who believe in my Buddha. ”

Ye Ke sneered and said with a smile: "Although the world is big, I have my own halberd to take, and the world that gives alms to the world, what does it matter to me?"

is such a nest as Li Shimin in the original book, Buddhism persuaded him one by one strong enemies, helped him filter out the competition between brothers, and even helped him resolve the biggest strong enemy, the young marshal army.

It can be said that the person who has won the world since ancient times is not as easy as Li Shimin in the book, he only needs to put on an image of a virtuous monarch who is humble and has the world in his heart, and gathers the hearts of the people.

It's no different from lying down and winning.

But in such a world, the consequence is that Buddhism is irrepressibly bigger, and the wealth of the world continues to flow into the temples.

Seeing that Ye Ke was soft and hard, Concubine Xuan did not move, and smiled indifferently, like a white lotus blooming in a pond in the Buddha Realm, indescribably holy and noble, and a faint Zen flow between her eyebrows.

"In the battle of Tianjin Bridge, no matter whether you win or lose, Cihang Jingzhai will close the mountain and the temple for 20 years, and no longer care about the affairs of the world. ”

"Do you really think that whether Cihang Jingzhai closes the mountain or not, does this king really care?"

Ye Ke only said lightly, and the atmosphere in the living room became dignified and embarrassing again.

This was the first time since he became king that he had used the word "this king."

"Today, Your Majesty to the jade of Kunshan, there is an easy-going treasure, the pearl of the bright moon, the sword of Tai'a, the horse of the fiber, the banner of the cuifeng, and the drum of the tree spirit. This number of treasures, Qin is not born, and His Majesty said, why not?"

Concubine Xuan smiled slightly, and said such a paragraph lightly.

This is the second time to be an emperor, Ye Ke has not read too many books, as soon as he heard the words of the concubine, he knew that this was a passage in Li Si's "Book of Exhortations to Guests", and after thinking for a moment, he said:

"Since there is a harmony of the family, of course, it is made up of the pearl of Suihou, what's the matter? Could it be that Cihang Jingzhai has a Suihou pearl?"

The concubine smiled faintly, like the spiritual rain of the empty mountain, which is a kind of natural and incomparable natural beauty of "clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving".

"King Xia is smart, he is really born to be a master, Cihang Jingzhai originally escaped from the world and practiced, should not have such a heavy treasure, the head of the house has a saying, the day King Xia ascends the throne, with Hou Zhu will be sent to the king's hands. Today's trip is just to say goodbye to the king, and the concubine's words are finished, so please leave!"

As he spoke, without waiting for Ye Ke to speak, Shi Shiran left like a white lotus.

Seeing the graceful figure of the concubine disappear from view, Ye Ke neither stopped nor retained, but his eyes were more solemn.

On the surface, Buddhism is bowing to him, but this does not mean that Buddhism is completely out of threat.

They had released news on the rivers and lakes before, saying that they had a He clan, but now they told Ye Ke that they still had Sui Hou Zhu.

You must know that this jewel is extraordinary, legend has it that the monarch of Suiguo saw a wounded snake on the side of the road on a trip and was in great pain, Suihou felt compassion, and asked the snake to be bandaged and released into the grass. After the serpent recovered, he came to Suihou's residence with a night pearl and said: "I am the son of the dragon king, and I am grateful for the grace of the king to save my life, and I have come to repay the virtue." This is the Suihou Pearl, which is called the "Spirit Snake Pearl".

Later, it was destroyed by Chu, and after Chu was destroyed by Qin, Qin Shi Huang owned Suihou Zhu and He's Bi. Qin Shi Huang ordered Li Si to write "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity", and the jade worker Sun Shou engraved it on the He's bi, becoming the emperor's "jade seal". After Liu Bang destroyed Qin, He's Bi became the "Han Dynasty National Seal" of the Han emperors and became a treasure in China. But with Hou Zhu from Qin Shi Huang there is no follow-up.

Unexpectedly, since it is also in the hands of Cihang Jingzhai.

This is to announce to Ye Ke that the invisible power behind the Buddhism Gate is still very strong, and the destruction of a single Pure Nian Zen Monastery does not mean that the Buddhism Gate can decline.

Ye Kexin said this, you must know that the world is in turmoil, taking advantage of the war and chaos in various places, the Buddhist temples in various places are wantonly occupying land for their own use, and at the same time, the number of young and strong tenants under their names has expanded again and again.

This is an extremely powerful force, once there is a stir, the land under Ye Ke's rule, except for Jizhou, which is relatively stable, will be in chaos in other places, no wonder Buddhism dares to choose the Lord on behalf of Heaven!

In history, the "three martial arts and one sect to destroy the Buddha" is to use drastic means to destroy the Buddha, in fact, it is the helpless move of these emperors, and it is also the excessive power of Buddhism that causes the backlash of all forces, Buddhism has not been devastating at all, as long as there is poverty in the world, as long as there is injustice in the world, as long as all the land in the Buddhist temple does not need to pay taxes, the foundation of Buddhism will not be damaged in the slightest.

Historically, after the death of several emperors of the so-called Sanwu and Yizong, the newly elected monarch would show favor to Buddhism, and the Buddhist temples around the country would immediately regroup and create brilliance.

Thousands of years of history show that there are no religious wars in China, but there may not be no religious madmen, and Zhu Cang, the king of Garuda who was killed by him, is a typical example.

Buddhism's fatalistic reincarnation theory is not only in line with the ruler's intentions, but also very down-to-earth.

Buddhism has done a really good job in guiding people to goodness.

The ancient emperors had no way to suppress religion, and the biggest reason was that they did not have a strong grassroots force.

The so-called royal power does not go to the countryside, only the clan under the county, the clans are autonomous, the autonomy depends on ethics, and ethics creates the squire.

The squire gradually became stronger, expanded his power with the help of poetry and books, and then entered the court, and became the gate valve of the family.

The family wants to enslave the people, exploit and accumulate wealth, and naturally make the people foolish, and Buddhism just meets these needs.

For the people, life is already miserable, and pinning hope on the next life is not a kind of spiritual sustenance, which may be this confidence, so that they can face the suffering of life, and continue to do good deeds and accumulate virtues, in order to have a good birth in the next life.

This is exactly what the Maison Gate Valve has seen.

Therefore, the gate valve and the Buddha gate hit it off, forming the scene of today's Buddhism becoming bigger.

But it's a pity that I met Ye Ke, a freak!

Since Ye Ke hibernated in Bohai County, he has promoted universal education, and each time he has focused on promoting talents from ordinary families and street children, and in the long run, he has formed a powerful organizational force.

It is enough to fight against the landlord and squire, and then against the family gatekeeper.

In addition, Ye Ke pays attention to agriculture and develops and promotes industry and commerce, so it seems that the people can move and work.

As long as it continues to do so long, Buddhism will continue to lose followers and lose its foundation.

While Ye Ke was dealing with official business, he was thinking about who he could promote as the commander of the Buddhist sect.

He is now the king of Xia, busy with government affairs, as long as he grasps the overall situation, and the specific affairs have been handled by Shangshu Province.

But in the rivers and lakes, there must also be a capable helper.

"King Xia, Rong Baixiang, the servant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, asks to see him. ”

"Elect him in!"

Ye Ke's eyes lit up and said.

Of course, Rong Baixiang is not qualified, but the one behind him can.

"King Xia, Queen Yin Zhu Yuyan asks to see the king. ”

Rong Baixiang bent down to salute.

"Very well, this king is just wanting to see her. Ye Ke nodded lightly, glanced at Rong Baixiang, and said: "Rong Baixiang, it is true that Zhu Yuyan is a master of your sect, but you are also an important minister of the Xia Kingdom, a high and powerful position, don't forget!"
