Chapter 398: War Loans

"Hoo ......"

The strong wind blows, the copper door opens and closes, and the figures of Yang Jian and his wife have disappeared outside the crack of the door.

There were only two faint competitors left in the bronze hall, Kong and 'Dade', and the atmosphere fell silent for a moment, with a sense of solemnity.

Shi Zhixuan flicked the Buddha beads between his fingers, and seemed to be as unhurried as ever, but he was secretly angry in his heart, Yang Jian should be quite satisfied at this time, right?

Thinking of the three letters that Yang Jian had given him just before leaving, signed by He Ruobi, Wei Xiaokuan, and Han Xiong respectively, Shi Zhixuan faintly peeked at the traces of many secret hands in the Jingnian Zen Temple.

Secretly slandered: If the high-ranking officials of various countries who are secretly pro-Buddhism or who are secretly upheld by Buddhism gather into one party and are called 'skinhead parties', He Ruobi, Wei Xiaokuan, and Han Xiong, the three powerful people of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, should be among them!

He Ruobi is now a young handsome man who is highly valued and trusted by Yu Wenyong, and the internal history of the official and the power is needless to say.

And Wei Xiaokuan, who is now a high-ranking and powerful general in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, can be called a military strategist and strategist.

As for Han Xiong?

Although his reputation is not high, he is also a general of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and a high-ranking official of the real power faction at the level of the assassin history, and his son Han Baohu is also an outstanding young man today......

Of course, what really made Shi Zhixuan secretly pay attention was that Han Baohu would have a nephew in the future, that is, Han Xiong's grandson, called Li Jing!

Inadvertently, many things have appeared in vague contexts, although they are still seeing flowers from the fog, but there are also faint traces to follow......

Beside him, he clearly felt that the seemingly pure monk beside him was thinking about it. But what made him secretly horrified. Even though he pushes the Zen mind to the limit. can't peek into the other party's half of the mind.

This kind of situation can only prove that the other party's Zen state of mind is better than his!

I can only sigh secretly: No wonder Jiaxiang, Daoxin, Emperor Heart, and Wisdom are the four bald donkeys, rest assured to let this junior participate in this secret!

The four holy monks and the four major sects faintly want to take Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen Monastery instead, and the matter of holding the Buddha's door and cow ear will naturally not be unaware, but they didn't take it to heart.

It is only because the contemporary Cihang Jingzhai master and his inner meditation master of the Pure Meditation Monastery have stabilized the four holy monks of the same generation. And he is more confident that Cihang Jingzhai and his heirs can still stabilize the heirs of the four holy monks.

But at this time, his heirs have not yet been seen, and the heirs of the four holy monks are qualified to be equal to him!

Inevitably, the sense of crisis in the hollow heart increased several times, but his face was still impassive, and he said cordially: "Dade first came to this temple, but he should stay for a while, so that the poor monks can do a little bit of the friendship of the landlord!"

The sound is as soft and generous as ever, and it is pleasant.

Shi Zhixuan said generously: "The master is gracious, and the poor monk dares to disobey his fate...... The Sutra Building of Jiuwen Zun Yuan contains many unique Buddhist scriptures since the Han Dynasty. I wonder if I can allow the poor monk to borrow it?"

He smiled and said, "It turns out that the great virtue likes to read the scriptures as much as the poor monks, and it is good......

The prayer building is just behind the main hall. Please come with the poor monks!"

The two of them walked out of the bronze hall, and when they went around the main hall, Shi Zhixuan glanced at the hall again, and vaguely saw a middle-aged monk who seemed to be slightly older than Kong, but his face was blurred.

It's not that Shi Zhixuan's eyes are not good and he can't see the other party's face clearly, but that the monk's Zen method is profound, and he is only slightly inferior to the second ancestor of Zen Buddhism, Hui Ke, and can barely hinder Shi Zhixuan's senses and induction invisibly.

He knew that that was the contemporary Zen master of the Pure Nian Monastery, the master of the void, who was rumored to be over 100 years old, and had stopped asking about the world twenty years ago, and handed over the affairs of the Zen Monastery to his disciples.

Therefore, although the void has not inherited the name of the Zen master, it has the reality of the Zen master.

Of course, Shi Zhixuan also faintly felt that the old monk might have been a great master at the peak level of the grandmaster in his original heyday.

But now that his life is about to expire, his essence is drying up, and he is reducing the loss of his spirit and spirit in a state similar to the state of silence and withering Zen or death, and he is trying to prolong his life, but he can no longer use force.

Shi Zhixuan believed that as long as he rushed to the door of the main hall now and struck the old monk with a slashing palm, no matter whether the old monk resisted or not, he would be killed instantly!

It is said that the Pure Nian Zen Buddhism was established by the 'Heavenly Monks', and according to the ten years of Emperor Yongping of the Han Ming Dynasty was the year when Buddhism was introduced to Middle-earth, it should be established in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which is close to the time when Cihang Jingzhai was established.

The first ancestors of the two factions, 'Heavenly Monk' and 'Dini', were brothers and sisters of the same sect, and they were destined but had no share, but their ideas were very similar, that is, they were not confined to one sect or one sect.

They all take it as their mission to study the world's religious sects, hoping to find the way to realize life and death, and it is also a place to practice Buddhism.

In order to avoid distractions, it has been strictly forbidden for heirs to get involved in rivers and lakes and politics, so that they can focus on the study of the way of heaven and man.

Of course, no one knows better than Shi Zhixuan that this kind of talk is actually just a layman's talk, and for the 'cultural' people who are well versed in chewing words and stealing concepts, they can only ...... Huh!

When it really came time to participate in the rivers and lakes and politics, the descendants of the two factions of Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen Monastery would start with "I didn't want to ......" and "I had to ......", and then cut their opponents to death in the same way.

At most, I can't do anything, and when I reconcile, I come to the unfathomable sentence that if you practice in our school, you must first enter the world, and then be born, during which you will sharpen your Zen heart and sword heart with red dust......

Pure Nian Zen Buddhism mainly practices the [Pure Meditation Zen Book] written by the first ancestor monk, which is mysterious and unfathomable, and few people know about it, and it seems that the main one is [Wu Nian Zen Gong], and the [Closed Mouth Zen] practiced after the emptiness.

Shi Zhixuan really wanted to borrow it and read it, but unfortunately, no matter how generous the Pure Nian Zen Academy was, he would not let the secret method of Zen Gong at the bottom of the box be observed by his competitors.

Of course, the reason why he asked to go to the scripture building of the Zen temple to read all kinds of Buddhist scriptures and solitary books is to beat the mind of 'saving the country with a curve' - even if the heavenly monk's [Pure Meditation Zen Book] is exquisite, its fundamental core is after all from the many classics collected in the Zen Temple, and the Zen masters of the past dynasties who practiced the [Pure Nian Zen Book] will also leave Zen experience on many Buddhist scriptures, which must contain traces of Zen Gong......

Only Shi Zhixuan will read through the Buddhist scriptures and solitary books in the Zen Academy. Find another opportunity to play with empty hands. It is enough to thoroughly understand the mysteries of the martial arts of the Pure Mind Zen Temple!

......................................................................................................

Chang'an Imperial Palace.

Yuwen Yong stands on a hundred-foot tall building. Overlooking the night and the lights are as prosperous as the starry sky, Chang'an City feels open-minded and extremely comfortable for a while.

He Quan reported later: "The spy Feiying passed the book and lost the trace of Puliu Rujian and his wife near Luoyang......

"I know......" Yu Wenyong replied lightly and waved his hand, not seeming surprised.

He Quan retreated to the corner of the railing, and sighed in his heart: Since the emperor returned from the war two months ago, he returned in vain. After planting a heel on the demon girl, her temperament became more and more unpredictable, and she was not angry and self-assured!

In recent days, even the emperor's favorite before, the prince's biological mother, Concubine Li Ezi, has been snubbed a lot.

Could it be that he was deceived by a demon girl once, and he got a heart disease, right?

Yu Wenyong didn't know that the eunuch was figuring out his current temperament, but he was indeed sick, not a heart disease, but a physical illness!

Since that night, he stole a body of essence from the demon girl. After giving 'Pei Ju' another gas infusion to heal, he seemed to be a blessing in disguise. His skills have doubled, and he is almost among the top masters of the current world.

However, after adapting to and honing in the skyrocketing strength, he found that his potential was greatly overdrawn, his heart and kidneys were lost, and his essence was insufficient, and he seemed to have lost his sowing and fertility functions.

Fortunately, he already has five sons under his knees, and he has never been greedy for women, so he doesn't care too much about it.

And after this training, he not only reached a higher level of spiritual will, completely mastered the power of the grandmaster, but also devoted himself wholeheartedly to the government and politics, trying to continuously contribute to the foundation of the Great Zhou and Yuwen clan, so that the country will continue to extend.

Therefore, he offended the most ruthlessly in his life, he could be called a mortal enemy, and he had enough strength to overthrow the Buddhism of the Great Zhou Foundation, which immediately came to his mind and became his first object of attention.

It is the duty of the elite to focus on monitoring the powerful families who hold military power and are close to Buddhism...... And Yang Jian and his wife are one of them!

As for who Yang Jian met in Luoyang this time, and what did he talk about?

Yu Wenyong naturally had a vague idea in his heart, but he was not surprised, nor did he have the slightest anger at being betrayed by his courtiers, but was planning how to temporarily win over and appease the powerful people close to Buddhism......

He was well aware that the high status and prestige of such religions as Buddhism essentially consisted of the fact that they had the advantage of maintaining a special status of half an outsider in politics and military affairs, either vaguely ruling the spirit of the people, or maintaining a protective color.

Once the Buddhists themselves go out to compete for the throne and have a tendency to establish a Buddhist kingdom and ********, even if they succeed for a while, they will lose this protective color, arouse the fear of all classes, and eventually inevitably disappear in the change of dynasty.

And if Buddhism does not rebel in person and wants to change the policy of the dynasty towards Buddhism, the only way to win over and support the powerful families who hold military power to change the dynasty is to choose!

It is precisely based on this that Yu Wenyong wants to delay the time for Buddhism to start by wooing and appeasing the powerful people who are close to Buddhism......

After thinking about it, Yu Wenyong called softly: "He Quan?"

Approaching with a slight brisk step, He Quan said respectfully: "The slave is here!"

Yu Wenyong said calmly: "The prince is now fourteen years old, it should be the age of marriage, right?"

He Quan was stunned when he heard this, he thought that the emperor would announce the punishment of Yang Jian and his wife, but he didn't expect that he would suddenly mention the prince's marriage, and hurriedly said: "The slave will start preparing to choose a concubine for the prince tomorrow!"

Yu Wenyong said lightly: "I heard that Lihua, the eldest daughter of Sui Gongpu Liurujian, is thirteen years old, Hui is Lanxin, and Wen Wan Shuyi ......"

He Quan was full of excitement, and hurriedly responded: "The slave will send the queen and Li Guifei to summon the Duchess of Sui into the palace as soon as possible to discuss the matter of marrying Miss Qi Lihua as the crown princess." ”

Yuwen Yong said "Hmm!" lightly, and said no more.

In fact, why didn't he know that Buddhism should not be humiliated, and the act of banning Buddhism had mixed pros and cons, and it was even likely to lead to the destruction of the Great Zhou Guozuo?

But he had a plan!

It must be known that more than 100 years ago, Emperor Taiwu of Wei abolished the Buddha at the beginning, but killed a few monks in the entire Chang'an City, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has a deep enmity with Buddhism!

Despite this, seven years after the abolition of Buddhism in the Northern Wei Dynasty, the son of Emperor Taiwu succeeded to the throne as emperor, issued an edict to restore Buddhism, and built Buddhist temples.

With the experience of the previous car, Yuwen Yong's strength and flexibility are much more polite than that of Emperor Taiwu of Wei, and in the process of banning Buddhism in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he did not kill a monk from beginning to end, and he was very measured.

If his son Yu Wenyun succeeds to the throne in the future, and then issues an edict to restore Buddhism and build Buddhist temples, will Buddhism still give up the near and far and take the risk to support the rebellion of the powerful?

In the meantime, the Buddha is forbidden, and then the Buddha is restored, it seems to be tossed back and forth, but in the middle of the Great Zhou Dynasty can capture the wealth of Buddhism for more than 100 years, and use it as military expenses.

At that time, if we restore Buddhism and appease Buddhism, we can eliminate the backlash of Buddhism into invisibility, and suppress Buddhism by the way!

In this way, Buddhism has lost a hundred years of wealth, while Yuwen has two-thirds more splendid country, which can be described as a supreme trick to borrow chickens and eggs.

In essence, it was the Great Zhou and Yuwen clans who forcibly took out war loans to Buddhism, and repaid one percent in time before Buddhism went completely mad, comforting and comforting the self-esteem of Buddhism, and giving the two sides a step of reconciliation......

Of course, the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny!

Yu Wenyong also found that the patience of Buddhism is not as good as it was more than a hundred years ago, and this year is the second year of the Great Zhou Dynasty's ban on Buddhism, and Buddhism is ready to move, three or five years earlier than he imagined! )
