Chapter 69: The royal family VS the family, the court is the chess, the people's hearts are the sons, please enter the urn!
"The ministers heard of the people of the world, greedy for lust and misfortune, killing and fighting...... It is a murderous field of tongue and tongue, a sea of right and wrong......"
As soon as Lu Yigong's words came out, Li Shimin subconsciously glanced at his eldest grandson Wujian......
It turns out that the Emperor of Heaven said that Buddhism wants to interfere in his own decision, is the next son in that family?
Li Shimin's gaze instantly became obscure...... The Emperor of Heaven and the Heavenly Court wanted to find someone to do something, and they also knew to find him Li Shimin; It's okay for Buddhism, but I didn't even have the intention of testing myself, so I just found the family?
Why, this is to tell me Li Shimin, Li Tang really has the final say, it's not their royal family, it's the family?
The eldest grandson Wujian obviously also noticed this, and asked with a cold face: "I don't know what Lu Shilang means by being greedy and smuffying, killing more and fighting more?" ”
"Don't the queen think that the people of the Tang Dynasty are like this? Otherwise, how could they be just Qiantou? ”
"Joke!"
Queen Eldest Sun sneered and retorted: "If you talk about greed, how can you say that you have tens of thousands of hectares of land in the south of the Lujia River?" How many people are in the Lu family, and one-tenth of them are available? If thou art not greedy, how can thou have so many fields? ”
"When it comes to adultery, ordinary people have at most one wife...... But your Lu family, which man is not a group of wives and concubines, and the backyard is full of people? ”
"On the murder field of tongue and tongue, right and wrong, is it possible that Lu Shilang wants to tell this palace, no one in the Erlu family has ever talked about gossip? Ever talked about the rights and wrongs of others? ”
Lu Yigong never expected that he had just thrown out an argument, and he was pointed at and scolded by the eldest grandson queen, and he was about to open the old bottom of his Lu family!
"The queen speaks carefully!"
Lu Yigong gritted his teeth and glared at the eldest grandson queen: "My Lu family is a thousand-year-old family, and the people know that I am a good family, how can it be as ...... as the queen said?"
"Huh! This is okay for Lu Zhi, the ancestor of the Rulu family...... You ......"
The eldest grandson sneered, her eyes full of sarcasm......
At the scene, the eldest grandson Wuji was stunned, the queen in front of him, who had a sharp tongue and could point at the Lu family's nose and scold, was really his sister? What about the virtuous and virtuous sister, gentle as water, who once said in front of herself that 'a woman is virtuous if she is not talented'?
Why haven't you seen each other for a day, and the whole person seems to have changed?
What he didn't know was that the eldest grandson queen, in fact, admired the most, was the female god of war and the queen Jiang Zhen...... Even, the worship of Li Xiuning surpasses him!
In the past, it was just to maintain Li Shimin's image and conform to the general trend...... Now, with the affirmation of the concubine, where does she still think that the woman's publicity is wrong?
Now she has completely let go of herself! I have to be hard!
"The Queen!"
At this time, the head of the Cui family in Qinghe couldn't see it, and came out of the line to salute: "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, this is the ancestral training!" What the mother said, there is a state of losing the mother's etiquette in the world! ”
"Zu Xun? Who gave the ancestral teachings? ”
The eldest grandson Wujian sneered and retorted: "There is a princess Li Xiuning in this dynasty, imitating Jiang Niangniang, the queen of the Great Shang, to establish a women's army, conquer the world, and lay a unified momentum for this dynasty; Now Li Jing's wife, Red Whisk Girl, is in charge of a town army and suppresses the Quartet! In this dynasty, how could there have been reprimands that the harem should not interfere in politics? Or, do you want the palace to invite the Emperor Taishang out to confront you? ”
The head of the Cui family choked instantly...... Please come out of the Emperor? Who doesn't know that the Emperor Taishang valued his daughter Li Xiuning the most back then, and he has always felt guilty when his daughter died for some reason...... Ask him to come out and say these words, I'm afraid that he will not be chased and beaten by the Emperor Taishang with a bench!
Hard-headed, the head of the Cui family said: "From ancient times to the present, there has never been a ......"
"Are you sure? Would you like me to give you some examples? Or is it that there is now a Zhongshu Province formed by the Emperor's harem in today's court, which is responsible for assisting the gods of various ministries, and it has been eaten by you? ”
"Or do you want to say that the concubines can't be considered Terran women?"
Another sentence completely blocked the head of the Cui family...... For a while, he didn't know, no, he shouldn't dare to refute?
Li Shimin had a headache when he saw it...... He knew that after he came back yesterday, his queen had changed!
"Ahem, the queen sit down and get down to business now."
Coughing lightly, Li Shimin gave the eldest grandson queen a look, something has not yet been decided...... Don't panic yet!
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The eldest grandson queen understood and sat back in her seat...... Only then did Li Shimin look at Lu Yigong, who looked embarrassed: "Lu Shilang, what you just said, although it is biased, is also true...... The sage also said that the color appetite is also! The saints are no exception, let alone the people? ”
"It's just that when you talk about this matter in the court, do you want to legislate and restrain the people?"
Li Shimin pretended not to know and asked deliberately.
Lu Yigong forcibly reined in his mind and said: "No, if it is only a legislative constraint, it can only cure the injury, not the root cause!" If we want to completely change this status quo, we still need to fundamentally solve the ideological problems of the people. ”
"The minister once learned from the merchants of the Western Regions that above the Niuhe Prefecture in the West, there is a spiritual mountain, and there is the first good sect of Buddhism in the Three Realms. Its Buddha Rulai has three scriptures in his hands: there is a collection of "Law", talking about the sky; "On the Treatise" is a collection, speaking of the ground; After a hiding, the ghost. There are a total of 35 books in Sanzang, and the 15,144 volumes are the scriptures of cultivation and the door of righteousness and goodness. ”
"If the three Tibetan scriptures can be introduced to my Tang Dynasty, they will definitely be able to persuade sentient beings and make the people kind to others, and this method is the way to cure the root cause!"
Lu Yigong saluted and said...... He wasn't worried at all that King Tang would disagree. Isn't it just sending someone to get the scriptures? and did not let Tang Wang go in person.
It's just a personal one, no matter how you look at it, King Tang has no reason to refuse!
"The Buddhist scriptures have such an equivalent effect?"
King Tang pretended to exclaim and asked in disbelief.
"That's true."
Lu Yigong nodded and said: "The minister suggests that for the Tang Dynasty to rise to peace and live happily for the people, the Tang Dynasty should carefully select one person, give him the title of royal brother, issue a holy decree, give the Tang Dynasty a disc, and learn scriptures for the Tang Dynasty!" ”
"Joke!"
The eldest grandson Wujian scolded: "Brother Feng, learn scriptures from the west, don't you want to worship Buddha in the Tang Dynasty?" ”
"If we can change the people's minds and guide the people to be good. With such good teachings, why not worship Buddha? ”
The head of the Cui family spoke.
"Good!"
"To become the first major sect in the Three Realms of the Flood and Desolation, Buddhism must have its own advantages!"
"If I can get the help of Buddhism, my Datang will definitely last for 10,000 years!"
The representatives of the five surnames and seven sects in the court, and even the head of the family, all opened their mouths to echo and express their approval.
The eldest grandson queen and Li Shimin glanced at each other, where do they not know, Buddhism, not only found the family, but the thousand-year-old family of the Tang Dynasty, all of them were wiped out! Only, there is no royal family!
Li Shimin's eyes darkened, he deserved to be the king...... Not only is he not as good as the Emperor of Heaven, but even his decisions have to be manipulated by the family. It's really, so aggrieved!
With a turn of his eyes, Li Shimin looked at his eldest brother, the eldest grandson Wuji!
"Uncle Guo, what do you think of Lu Shilang's proposal?"
What kind of character is the eldest grandson Wuji? He has been optimistic about Li Shimin from the beginning, and he is the one who assisted him all the way to the top! It can be said that no one can match the speculation in Li Shimin's heart!
Now he can fully feel that his brother-in-law is afraid that he is already angry! The one who is furious!
However, one side is the emperor and his brother-in-law; One side, but you can become a Buddha and be an ancestor, and you will live forever!
"Minister...... Minister......"
The eldest grandson Wuji hesitated, and the afterglow swept to the slightly warning gaze of Lu Yigong and the other five surnamed Qizong.
After all, he still chose, interests!
"The minister agrees!"
"Okay, what a national uncle, what a major family, what a Buddha! Hahaha! ”
Li Shimin raised his head and laughed wildly, looking like crazy!
The heads of all the families sensed that something was wrong in their hearts, and they were all thinking of making a threat...... Li Shimin's generals finally couldn't sit still!
First of all, it was the Confucian leader, Kong Yingda, a descendant of Confucius, who took the lead!
"Worship Buddha? Honorable Teaching? The head of the family is simply a forgotten ancestor! ”
Kong Yingda pointed at the officials who came out of the column with an excited expression, saliva splashed, and squirted wildly: "You and other family masters, have you ever remembered that the fourth emperor said, the human race, worship the heavens and the earth and worship the ancestors, but do not worship the religion!" Terran, Tianxingjian, a gentleman should strive for self-improvement! How many years have passed, have you forgotten your ancestral teachings? ”
"Master's words are wrong!"
The Taiyuan royal family is listed: "Buddhism is beneficial to the people and the world, but it is only to worship Buddha, why not?" Even if he was a big merchant emperor back then, didn't he worship the sect as the state religion, so that he could defeat the Xiqi rebels, defeat the heavenly court, and achieve the supreme heavenly emperor? ”
"Worship the Sect as the state religion? I think you haven't learned history in the belly of a dog? ”
Kong Yingda sneered and sneered: "Intercepting the sect is just a collaborator of big businessmen!" After the big business, there is no interception, there are only 100 schools! It's all about helping the Terrans move forward with their knowledge! ”
"In the face of saints, the human race did not worship, and fought with the heavens and people...... Now in our generation, we have to grovel and worship a so-called Buddha? Aren't you afraid of going down to the underworld after you die, and you have no face to face your ancestors? ”
But these heads of families are bent on becoming Buddhas and immortal...... How can the afterlife intimidate them?
"Being able to guide the people to goodness is the greatest blessing to the human race! I'm sure our ancestors weren't as short-sighted as you! ”
"I don't think it's Buddhism, it's that Confucianism is afraid that Buddhism will rob them of their status and drive them out of the court and the mainstream of the human race, right?"
The heads of the families did not hesitate to slander Confucianism for their own purposes......
Kong Yingda was so angry that the corners of his mouth were trembling, he now understood a little why Li Shimin was so disgusted with the family after he took the throne, and he always wanted to weaken the family...... This is evident in today's events!
Although I don't know what benefits Buddhism has given to the family, can let them help to charge into battle like this...... Just because they don't even care about their ancestors, they want to promote Buddhism, it can be seen that the family is a group of tumors that have no world and only interests!
"Your Majesty, Buddhism is not to be worshipped!"
At this time, the troll Wei Zheng finally opened his mouth to come out!
Li Shimin's heart was relieved...... The reason why he didn't speak just now, and only let the eldest grandson queen speak, was because he was afraid that because of yesterday's refusal, the Emperor of Heaven would hate him...... Now it's okay, Wei Zheng has spoken, and the backer is here!
"Oh? Wei Gongke can talk about it carefully! ”
Li Shimin couldn't wait to speak, and the title was changed back to Duke Wei!
The five surnames and seven sects, including the eldest grandson Wuji, are all human spirits, and when they heard this, they all felt a little bad in their hearts...... The eldest grandson Wuji looked at Wei Zheng even more unkindly, do you know what you are talking about! To oppose it is to be the enemy of my family!
But Wei Zheng's identity is the god of the heavenly court, and he dares to scare when the Buddha comes in person, let alone the head of a group of mortal families?
"The minister has a copy of the data...... Please take a look! ”
As he spoke, Wei Zheng handed the documents that had already been prepared to the eunuch on the side...... Then it was sent by the eunuchs to the Tang Emperor and the ministers......
After everyone got it, Wei Zheng began to explain......
"I don't mention what the teachings of Buddhism are, but what the sects are...... The minister only said a few realities! ”
"Since His Majesty ascended the throne, in order to repay the kindness of the Shaolin Temple of Buddhism and the help of the monks, His Majesty has greatly revitalized the capital Chang'an Buddhist Temple, and established many temples such as White Horse Temple, Jinshan Temple, and Yanta Temple.
"1. The number of Buddhists...... Before the establishment of many temples, the number of believers in Buddhism in Chang'an was only more than 30,000, but after the establishment of the temple, the number of Buddhists in Chang'an rose to more than 500,000! ”
"Second, for these more than 500,000 Buddhists, before believing in Buddhism, not to mention that there is meat in the meal, it is also worry-free...... However, after believing in Buddhism, nearly half of the Buddhists exchanged food for goods to worship the temple, and nearly 50,000 Buddhists starved to death...... The minister wants to ask, if the Buddha is not greedy, as long as a wisp of incense, why do you need believers' money? Even bewitched believers to sell their fields and add incense to themselves? ”
"3. Compared with other people who do not believe in Buddhism, during the thirteen years of this Zhenguan, there are two to five more children in the family, and there is a labor force...... The number of people in the homes of 500,000 Buddhists, counting those who died of starvation, does not increase but decreases! ”
"Fourth, during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the people couldn't help but open up wasteland and farm...... Other people's tax income has doubled, but these 500,000 Buddhists have not only not increased, but have almost no tax at all! ”
"The most important point, which is the fifth point...... 500,000 Buddhists, among whom there are thousands of people who have committed murder, arson and other serious crimes, Dali Temple and the Criminal Department went to arrest them, but they hid in the Buddhist temple, and the Buddhist temple said: Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground, and the law enforcement officials were blocked from the temple. The minister wants to ask, there is no Buddha worship now, there are so many people who have escaped from the Buddha and convicts, if the Tang Dynasty worships Buddhism as the state religion, then the entire Tang Dynasty, is the law lost, or is Buddhism the final say? In the future, won't those deserters and criminals be able to escape punishment on the grounds that they are Buddhists? Where is the majesty of the law? Where is the majesty of Datang?! ”
"As for what you say, persuade people to do good...... Hehe! ”
Wei Zheng fanned the information in his hand, looked at Lu Yigong and the heads of the five surnames and seven sects sarcastically, and said: "The crime rate of people who believe in Buddhism is two out of two, which is more than ten times that of people who do not believe in Buddhism...... Excuse me, is this what you call the Buddha that leads people to goodness? Is the Buddhism in your mouth good or evil? ”
Wei Zheng's words fell, and the entire hall was silent......
