Fan Zhen is a little regretful, Your Majesty is fine with everything, but this strange disease really cannot be cured. As long as you see a bald head, you want to kill, so the place where Your Majesty passes must be prepared in advance, and there must be no monks and bald people. But in the past, you would get sick when you saw a bald head, but now that your condition is getting worse, you will get angry when you think of a bald head?

Fan Zhen shook his head helplessly, the companion is like a companion tiger, and he doesn't know when the emperor will make a mistake, so he said that he would take off his black yarn hat when he was unhappy. This is quite light, if it really makes him angry, it is not necessary to kill himself directly. Of course, Fan Zhen is still very confident in his martial arts.

Since Chai Rong's condition is getting worse now, he can only follow Chai Rong's words. Who made him emperor? The emperor is absolutely right.

Fan Zhi said: "Your Majesty misunderstood, the minister thought that making so many Buddha statues was a waste of copper mines, so the minister thought that the Buddha statues could be recycled and made copper coins, so he brought His Majesty here to personally supervise it." ”

When Chai Rong heard this, his heart felt a little more comfortable. I don't know why, as soon as I heard the words of recycling Buddha statues to make copper coins, Chai Rong felt a little excited. Sure enough, he hated Zong Xin too much in his heart, as long as it was something that was not good for the monk, Chai Rong would feel happy.

Zhao Kuangyin said: "What's the use of this? We made the Buddha statue into copper coins with the front foot, and the people made the copper coins into Buddha statues with the back foot, and we wasted our efforts. Unless...... People are not allowed to turn copper coins into Buddha statues, but how can this kind of thing be stopped?"

Wang Pu said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something unclear. After His Majesty was in Luzhou, he never mentioned this matter, and now he said that Zong Xin almost used that small note to kill His Majesty. The course of events was originally as the note said, a direct attack on the troops outside the city would surely lead to a great victory, and we did as the note said, and the result was the same. ”

After Chai Rong heard this, he was suddenly stunned...... Before that, Chai Rong had been thinking about another thing. did as the note was done, and directly attacked the Northern Han garrison outside the city, but fell into Liu Chong's trap and almost died. If it weren't for his good command, if it weren't for Zhao Kuangyin's courage and good fighting, he would have regained his disadvantage and would have been wiped out. But listening to Wang Pu say this, it seems that the final result is the same as what is written in the treaty.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to be entangled, the minister has been with Zong Xin for so many years, what is he thinking, will the minister not know?" Zhao Kuangyin said excitedly: "In fact, Zong Xin often uses this method to let others go to find death, and Zong Xin told this person that he will definitely survive." If this person is dead, no one knows that Zongxin is not accurate, and if this person really survives, it proves that he is like a god. I've seen a lot of this kind of method......"

When Zhao Kuangyin said this, Fan Zhen and Wang Pu were completely speechless, and only Zhao Kuangyin knew about Zongxin's little secrets. If it weren't for Zhao Kuangyin saying this, Fan Zhen and Wang Pu would almost believe it, everything was in Zongzhi's calculations. But after Zhao Kuangyin's mouth, it seems that this material is like a god and suddenly has a little water, is Zong Xin really such a despicable person?

Fan Zhen and Wang Pu shook their heads at the same time, it was absolutely impossible, maybe Zong Xin had used this method to deal with the people he hated, so Zhao Kuangyin remembered this explanation. But Zong Xin would never use this method to deal with his own people, the bag that Zhang Yongde took out that day was definitely expected by Zong Xin, if he didn't expect this matter, how could he write this kind of thing in the bag? If he could predict such a distant future, why would it be difficult to anticipate a few more hours?

Chai Rong nodded and said, "Yes, that's the case, I almost believed it just now." Zong Xin is really such a despicable and shameless person, no wonder he hasn't missed a single thing for so many years, and everyone who knows that he miscalculated has been wiped out, right. ”

Zhao Kuangyin nodded and said, "I helped him kill a lot of people, and these people were all miscalculated by Zongxin." ”

Chai Rong said: "Fan Zhen Wang Pu obeyed the decree and limited the people to pay the bronze Buddha statue within 50 days, and the government paid the equivalent price of silver to purchase it. As long as the bronze Buddha of more than five catties is kept at home and does not pay, he will be sentenced to death. If you hide more than three catties of bronze Buddha and do not pay, you will be sentenced to prison. If you hide more than one pound of bronze Buddha and do not pay it, you will be sentenced to exile. If you hide a bronze Buddha below one pound and do not pay it, you will be sentenced to a rod. All the bronze Buddhas were destroyed and then minted into copper coins. In the future, whoever dares to destroy copper coins privately will be sentenced according to the quantity. ”

"Your Majesty......"

"Do you want to be disrespectful?"

"The minister doesn't dare to ......," Fan Zhen gritted his teeth and said, "The minister is grateful." ”

Chai Rong nodded with satisfaction, feeling much more comfortable now. It is a great thing to recycle all the Buddha statues in the hands of the people of the world, so don't let these people always think about believing in Buddhism. If the Buddha has anything to believe in, just believe in the emperor.

Zhao Kuangyin said: "Your Majesty, this is a symptom but not a root cause." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Your Majesty, most of the Buddha statues are in the temple, and only the copper Buddha statues in the hands of the people are collected, and I am afraid that they will not receive much. If you really want to do it, Your Majesty should recycle the bronze Buddha in the temple together. Zhao Kuangyin said: "Speaking of which, there have been more and more temples recently, and those monks chant and meditate all day long, without any serious things, and when they are hungry, they let others give alms, and they don't do any work themselves." Now it is too comfortable to be a monk, many people don't want to work and run to be a monk, because of the reason of Zongxin, more and more people believe in Buddhism, and they still want to go to the temple to give alms if they can't eat at home, which makes the quality of life of the people decline, most of these are fake monks, and they can't even chant scriptures, they just use the temple to eat and drink. ”

Chai Rong nodded and said: "What you said is very reasonable, then let these monks return to the vulgar, see the temple and tear down the temple, see the Buddha and melt the Buddha, so that we also have enough copper to make copper coins." Fan quality Wang Pu listened to the decree, close to the state of the music, private monks and nuns, increasing obscenity, the creation of monasteries, gradually to many, it is advisable to cite the old chapter, in order to reform the former evils. There should be a temple with an edict, and everything is still the same, and there is no quota for it, and it will be abolished. Only the key Buddhist temples that the emperors of the previous dynasty had given plaques were left, and the rest of the temples were destroyed. You must be able to recite more than a certain number of sutras and obtain the permission of your elders before you can become a monk, otherwise you will commit a crime. It is forbidden for all Buddhist disciples to act with clear will. ”

Fan Zhen and Wang Pu were stupid, they brought Chai Rong over just to let him know that the imperial court minted copper coins was a big deal, which was the most basic unit of currency in circulation. Unexpectedly, Chai Rong is becoming more and more energetic, and now he wants to demolish the temple and force the monks and nuns to return to the world......

In fact, Fan Zhen and Wang Pu also know that there are many flower monks like Zongxin, but there are very few high-ranking monks like Zongxin. Some monks just shaved their heads and did the same thing as Zongxin. The cultivation is not enough, and learning from the sect believes that this is simply a profession of taking monks as a meal.

When the swords are everywhere today, the wolf smoke is billowing out. Many people can't eat enough, these monks because of the existence of the sect, so there are many devout believers, those people provide for a part of the false monks, so that these monks are idle, eating and drinking.

But to be honest, one person has one way to live. What does it matter to you Chai Rong if others love you? Even the emperor can't force others to work hard. You can choose to be a wise man or a faint king, but you don't choose to be a good person or a bad person for others.

Fan Zhen and Wang Pu gritted their teeth in frustration, Chai Rong made such a fuss...... How many monks and temples can survive today? It's really hard to say. But he is the emperor after all, although he can't force everyone in the world, but there is no problem in forcing himself.

Wang Pu said: "Your Majesty, is this too much?"

"yes, what's wrong? I'm the emperor. Chai Rong said shamelessly: "You don't accept it, you don't accept it, beat me." Come on~ You have the ability to beat me. I just hate monks, what's wrong? As long as I think of monks, I feel angry, and sooner or later one day I will kill all the monks. But as long as these people are not monks and keep their hair up, I can let them live. ”

Zhao Kuangyin said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's better not to talk like this." We can be shameless, but we must add a great aura to this shamelessness. In fact, the destruction of the copper Buddha and the casting of copper coins are of great help to our country's financial resources, so that those monks can also get a part of the labor force if they become civilians, which is very helpful both public and private, but it is just ...... We need a very good reason, a reason why everybody, even the monks, have to nod. ”

"What reason?"

Zhao Kuangyin said: "The Buddha is a good way to transform the world, if there is Zen in the heart, then worship the stone as the Buddha, so the Buddha is in the heart, not in the temple." In order to benefit others, the Buddha can give even his head and eyes to others, so how can he care about a bronze statue? This is for the benefit of the people of the world, and the Buddha will certainly not blame him. ”

Chai Rong, Wang Pu, and Fan Zhen looked at Zhao Kuangyin with disdain. I never thought that he would be this kind of person, and after doing a shameless thing, he would even add a reasonable halo to this matter. But Zhao Kuangyin really did it...... As long as this explanation is given, even if the Buddha is in front of him, he will nod his head and destroy these bronze statues.

Zhao Kuangyin's move is really poisonous, and his move is to elevate the things to be destroyed to another spiritual level. There is no mention of the benefits and necessity of destroying the Bronze Buddha at all. Zhao Kuangyin just raised the spiritual level of the Buddha continuously, to the point of sacrificing himself to save the world, and even the body could be sacrificed, not to mention such an inconspicuous thing as a bronze statue? If even the Buddha is not to blame, how can the people blame?

"Okay~ Well said. Chai Rong admired: "Then this matter ...... I immediately returned to the palace and decreed that I would make all the monks in the world disappear. And for very good reason, those fake monks have nothing to hide. I see what Zong Xin can do with me? If he dares to go to Bianliang City to reason, Lao Tzu will lock him up and torture him every day. ”
