Chapter 47, Li Shimin's legal system
"Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie are both near Chang'an?" Li Shimin asked.
Xu Hao said: "That's right, Sun Wukong seems to have come to the Tang Dynasty to see the jokes of Erlang God, and now he lives in seclusion on Zhongnan Mountain, while Zhu Bajie ran to the Jingtan Messenger Temple near Chang'an because of the many delicacies in Chang'an City." ”
Li Shimin said with emotion: "These are all Xuanzang's apprentices, it's a pity that my brother doesn't understand my brother at all, otherwise if he is in Chang'an City, I can win over Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie to stand by my side, I also know the ability of these two people, even if it is my Tang Dynasty, I can't find a few masters who can match them." ”
After Tang Sanzang who traveled to the west finished translating the scriptures, he planned to stay in the Tang Dynasty to promote the Sanzang Sutra he brought, and he really thought that this Sanzang Sutra could benefit all sentient beings.
But he didn't expect that Li Shimin would get the information on the westward journey from him, and send troops to attack the country along the way, and the army of the Tang Dynasty fought all the way to Lingshan, which was 100,000 miles away, and it was inevitable for the army to do killing, so this road can be said to be a river of blood.
But this made Tang Sanzang unbearable, he thought that he didn't draw all the countries that traveled westward on this road, so that the army of the Tang Dynasty had a road map, it was he who killed the king and the people of the country along the way, so he ran back to Lingshan in a fit of anger and didn't ask about the world.
Xu Hao said with a smile: "Xuanzang has read all the scriptures stupidly, not down-to-earth at all, walked 108,000 miles, saw the situation around Lingshan but has not yet understood, Buddhist scriptures can only guide people to goodness, want to purify all living beings such as the Buddha does not have this ability, the scriptures do not have in the Tang Dynasty, Tao Te Ching, the four books and five classics are not better than the Buddha's true scriptures, you need to run to 108,000 miles to ask, and even he himself is a monk, why don't you write the scriptures yourself?"
He looked too highly at the Buddha, thinking that the Buddha could really purify sentient beings, but the Buddha should really have the ability to govern the world, why are demons and monsters rampant around Lingshan, this year I really want to Pudu sentient beings to work hard, if he has boundless mana, he can build a project like the Grand Canal, this is the real way to benefit all people, Pudu sentient beings, instead of staying in the temple to eat fasting and chanting Buddha. ”
"Xuanzang only saw that our Datang occupied these countries, but he didn't expect that the mediocre emperor was cleared by us, and the Tang army suppressed the demons and monsters in Xihe Niuzhou, and the people at the bottom finally had personal safety. When the standard of living is improved, what His Majesty does can be regarded as the true purity of all sentient beings. ”
Li Shimin said with a smile: "This royal brother of mine is a donkey temper, too stubborn, it may not be a good thing to go to Lingshan to live in seclusion, so that he can cultivate his Buddha with peace of mind, and the rule of the world should be handed over to a human emperor like me!" ”
Li Shimin wants to oppose the sky, so he naturally doesn't like the title of the Son of Heaven. Instead, he liked the title of the human emperor who could rule the Three Realms in ancient times, and now on Li Shimin's edict to the outside world, the title of human emperor is still before the Tang Emperor.
After all, this world pays attention to righteousness, and the emperor represents himself. The legal system that rules the Three Realms, after all, in ancient times, it was the Emperor of Man who ruled the Three Realms and led the throne of the Emperor of Heaven.
This is the legal system of the human race since ancient times.
And Tang Sanzang lived in seclusion in Lingshan, in addition to seeing the external expansion of the Tang army, Li Shimin restricted the development of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin is an emperor through the ages, especially in this world, Xu Hao was inspired by his ambitions, and his life span can be said to be in the original history, what he did not do, in this world, limiting the power of Buddhism is his idea of governing for the next 20 years, it can be said that Xuanzang brought back the Sanzang Sutra, but the power of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty has not expanded much, but because of Li Shimin's restrictions, many temples have been barren, and the land has been divided.
How could Tang Sanzang have thought that there would be such a scene? It's just out of sight. valley
Then Li Shimin looked at the agarwood who returned to Chang'an City and said with a smile: "Now we have to help this agarwood improve its strength!" I hope he won't let me down, and he can turn the heavens upside down like Sun Wukong. ”
The will of Agarwood, who could not find a way to defeat Erlang God, began to be depressed, and at this time Cheng Yanjin found Agarwood, and Agarwood told his teacher about his distress.
At this time, Cheng Yanjin scolded angrily: "Manly man, if you lose the fight, you just have to fight back, is it like watching your mother being imprisoned and suffering by Erlang God." Erlang God and a lot of invincible people in the world, there are many masters in this world who can match him, not to mention others, in this Zhongnan Mountain seclusion in this Monkey King who made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, you have to find him to learn skills, with your martial arts talent, I am afraid that I can't beat Erlang God! ”
Agarwood heard that only the Monkey King can compete with Erlang God in the world, and finally swept away the decadence and decided to worship Sun Wukong as a teacher, so he went to Zhongnan Mountain to find Sun Wukong according to what his teacher said.
But he was pulled by Cheng Yanjin and said: "Zhongnan Mountain is thousands of miles away, you have to find Sun Wukong, when do things, there is a pure altar messenger temple nearby, which is dedicated to Sun Wukong's younger brother Zhu Bajie, you find Zhu Bajie, and ask Zhu Bajie to take you to Sun Wukong, it's not much easier." ”
When Agarwood heard this, he went to the Temple of the Pure Altar Messenger to find Zhu Bajie.
On the other side, the news that Agarwood had forcibly broken into the forbidden land of Huashan was known to the Jade Emperor.
He severely reprimanded Erlang God and asked you to catch the agarwood too! Even Liu Yanchang, who was originally a mortal, ordered Erlang God to arrest him.
However, Erlang God was embarrassed: "Your Majesty, now Liu Yanchang is the Chang'an Order, protected by the golden dragon of luck of the Tang Dynasty, and the ministers are powerless!" ”
Strictly speaking, the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor of Men are in the same position, no matter how strong the heavenly immortals are, they can't control the courtiers in the world, and the two sides are not a system at all!
If Erlang God dares to catch Liu Yanchang, he will be attacked by the Tang Dynasty's Qi Luck Golden Dragon, and the Tang Dynasty can be described as an unprecedented prosperous dynasty, and its Qi Luck Golden Dragon is so strong that even the gods of the Heavenly Court can't resist it.
The Jade Emperor obviously knows this, the Tang Dynasty is not an ordinary dynasty, the lower realm is occupied by the Tang Dynasty, and even now even Beiju Luzhou has the figure of the Tang Army, and the emperor who can create such a prosperous era must be respected even if it is the Jade Emperor.
So the Jade Emperor said solemnly: "Since Liu Yanchang has become the courtier of the Tang Emperor, I will give the Tang Emperor a face, but the agarwood has become a human immortal, then it will be under my jurisdiction, he must be caught by me, and he will be tortured in the underworld, I want to kill chickens and monkeys, the fairies in this sky are becoming more and more presumptuous, and they don't know the majesty of the heavenly rules at all. ”
