The more Zhou Yuetian thought about it, the more angry he became, but he didn't mention it to Li Xingchen this morning, and he didn't dare to ask.

Now when I go back to Shilang's Mansion, I dare to be mad in front of my subordinates.

The people of the capital talked a lot, and they didn't know whether this was true or false.

There is no wind in the air. Yesterday, Li Xingchen did call the old Taoist into the imperial study, and it is estimated that this matter is not far from ten.

"Sir! The abbot of Xingye Temple asks to see. The butler hurried over.

As soon as he heard who it was, Zhou Yuetian was immediately overjoyed and got up to greet him.

Soon, the two met.

This abbot is the one Li Xingchen met when he went to Xingye Temple.

The abbot folded his hands and chanted the Buddha's name, and Zhou Yuetian did the same, returning it with a Buddhist salute.

"Why did the master suddenly come to visit today?"

"The poor monk heard that His Majesty intended to suppress Buddhism, and came to inquire about the truth." The abbot said indifferently.

When he came, he also heard that the Sanqingguan side was holding a law popularization meeting, and widely posted a notice inviting Taoist priests from all over the world to enter Beijing to discuss the popularization of Taoism, and he seemed to have a feeling of making a big move.

If there was no support from His Majesty behind him, Sanqingguan would never have made such a move.

Zhou Yuetian sighed and shook his head, "I don't know if this matter is true or not, Your Majesty didn't say it." ”

"Can you bring a poor monk into the palace to face the saint? The abbot asked.

"This..."Zhou Yuetian hesitated for a moment and agreed, "Yes." ”

Bringing people into the palace to see Li Xingchen, the qualifications of the left servant of the household department are still enough.

What's more, after Li Xingchen took the throne, he didn't help him less, and introduced the master to go, he couldn't do anything to him, right?

Soon, the two went to the imperial study.

The abbot saluted, "Greetings to Your Majesty." ”

Li Xingchen had already forgotten about him, and looked at him in surprise, the old Taoist priest only took a walk last night, and the old bald donkey came today? The news is better than the other.

"Your Majesty. Is the rumor true? Zhou Yuetian couldn't help but ask.

Li Xingchen pretended not to know, and said suspiciously: "Folk rumors? What's being preached? ”

Zhou Yuetian was stunned, "It's the matter that you want to support Taoism." ”

With a twist in his head, Zhou Yuetian suddenly stood upside down.

Not good!

It's still too reckless to ask this question, especially when there are Buddhists.

In case His Majesty is dissatisfied with himself, there may be a catastrophe.

However, after all the questions are asked, Your Majesty won't be angry, right?

Li Xingchen shook his head and said indifferently: "I don't know. ”

Last night, he agreed with the old Taoist priest that he could secretly release the news in his name, and on the surface, he wouldn't care if he didn't go too far.

So on the bright side, Li Xingchen really didn't know, and he didn't lie to anyone.

Zhou Yuetian breathed a sigh of relief, "I just said that Your Majesty would not do this kind of thing, master, you misunderstood." ”

The clouds of sorrow in my heart were swept away and became comfortable.

"Your Majesty is wise." The abbot also smiled.

Li Xingchen smiled and looked the abbot up and down, have you seen this anywhere?

Not to mention, this bald donkey is quite familiar, but he can't remember where he has seen it,

It may be that all the bald donkeys in the world look the same.

"By the way, what Buddha do you believe in?" Li Xingchen asked coldly.

Yesterday, I heard the old Taoist priest say that the Buddha is also divided into the West Heaven Buddha and the East Earth Buddha.

He was curious about the abbot's beliefs and wanted to know what the difference was between the two Buddhas.

Hearing this, the abbot looked pious, "Your Majesty, although there are many branches of Buddhism, they are all from the Western Heavens, and the poor monks believe in the Buddha of the Western Heavens." ”

Li Xingchen's eyes flashed with disdain, and he waved his hand and said, "Let's go down." ”

Although the abbot did not say it explicitly, the meaning of the words was clearly expressed.

All the Buddhas in the world come from the West Heaven, and he believes in the West Heaven Buddha.

The essential belief of Buddhism is to surrender the body and mind to the Buddha and obtain the qualification to be reborn in the Western Heaven after death.

In other words, the abbot is a person of the Western Heavenly Buddha and does not consider himself a citizen of Great Wei.

Seriously, Li Xingchen was a little chilled.

The soldiers of the Great Wei worked hard to protect their families and defend the country, and the bald donkeys hid in the temple to recite scriptures, eat, drink and make offerings, and they also regarded themselves as the people of the Western Heavenly Buddha.

Such behavior must be cracked down.

Sure enough, it was right to support Taoism.

The abbot didn't leave immediately, looking at Zhou Yuetian.

Zhou Yuetian understood, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, since you didn't say that you want to support Taoism, do you want to clarify?" ”

He felt that Li Xingchen was very strange today, if it was usual, he would take the initiative to investigate and punish the rumor-mongers if he didn't need them to say it. But why is there no movement today?

Li Xingchen squinted his eyes and looked dangerously.

"Zhou Yuetian, you are also a person who has been a secretary of the household department, how can your brain be so simple?

The position of the Tobe Squire, I didn't clear it, but I was kind to you.

If you don't want my kindness, I can take it back. ”

Clarify? Scold! Once clarified, it becomes a step ahead of Buddhism over Taoism.

What's more, he is an emperor and needs to be clarified?

There are more gossips, and if everything has to be clarified, he doesn't have to do anything all day long, just do public relations.

Zhou Yuetian's scalp was numb, his face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty." The minister then retired. ”

After speaking, he grabbed the abbot and quickly evacuated.

As soon as he walked out of the door, Zhou Yuetian's face changed suddenly, from fear to anger.

has been an official for more than 20 years, and he has somewhat guessed Li Xingchen's thoughts, which makes him feel chilled.

The abbot twisted his eyebrows, "Your Majesty can't get out of this matter, even if it's not him." It is also the result he wants to see. ”

Thinking of the first time I met Li Xingchen, he couldn't help but be worried about his various views on Buddhism.

"Master rest assured, even if I don't want this old life, I will stop his stupid behavior."

Zhou Yuetian's face sank like water, and after leaving the palace, he immediately dispersed the news in the palace.

When the abbot returned to Xingye Temple, he also gathered the high-level people together and decided to learn from the old Taoist and let the Buddha's light shine on the hall.

At the same time, the old Taoist priest got the news that His Majesty did not say anything about supporting Taoism.

This news was revealed by Zhou Yuetian himself.

Li Xingchen didn't clarify, he couldn't look at the current situation and continue to develop like this, so he would learn from the old Taoist priest and spread it on his own.

In the Sanqing Temple of the capital, the viewer was worried.

"Xuan Qingzi, Your Majesty..."

"Senior brother, don't worry, Your Majesty's side didn't agree openly, let's just act according to the original plan. The Western Heavenly Buddha and all the evil obstacles will be driven out of the Eastern Land. The old Taoist priest Xuan Qingzi said indifferently.

The news that Zhou Yuetian spread out is not necessarily true, it is generally fake, so there is no need to worry, just do your part.

Guan Zhu nodded, "Okay, junior brother, I understand." ”

With the spread of another piece of fake news, the capital was completely boiling.

At the beginning, Xuan Qingzi spread the news, and everyone was talking about it in the streets and alleys.

Now there is another fake news, and the soul of the people's gossip is completely ignited, and the discussion is becoming more and more intense.

"Do you think Your Majesty believes in Buddhism or Taoism? Which sect do you want to support? ”

"I don't think Your Majesty believes any of them. Both of these messages are either fake, or only one is true. ”
