"I knew why I had to do it in the first place!"

This is Yu Rongdu's original words to Zhang Ruhui, and it is actually a view of Taoism. For thousands of years in China, after the spread of Buddhism to the east during the Ming Emperor period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, although there were occasional disputes between Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, there was never much harm, even if the three powerful Emperor Wu destroyed the Buddha in history, it was just a contradiction between monks and laymen, but most of them had no hatred with Taoism.

Successive dynasties also swayed between Buddhism and Taoism, but after the late Northern Song Dynasty, Song Huizong clearly established Taoism as the state religion, and also set up jurisdictions at all levels. This is not the end, there is still a continuous suppression of Buddhism, worship the Tao and suppress the Buddha.

There are very few religious wars in China, and this period of history stands out in the absence of religious wars. What is the specific reason for this current situation, but history clearly records this scene.

Lin Lingsu wrote to Huizong Zhao Ji, "Interpretation of the Tao is harmful, although it is indestructible today, it is combined and corrected, the Buddha temple is changed to Gongguan, Shakya is changed to Tianzun, the Bodhisattva is changed to a monk, the Arhat is changed to a venerable, and the monk is a monk, all of whom have their hair and crown to carry out Jane." For this Huizong called "smart fairy" Lin Lingsu, Huizong naturally trusted Youjia, so last year, that is, the first month of the first year of Xuanhe, issued an edict, changed the Buddha to the Tao, easy clothing, called the surname, the left and right streets were changed to the Institute of Morality, the monks were also changed to moral people, and the nuns were changed to female virtues, and the female crown was changed to the female Tao.

More importantly, the jurisdiction of Buddhism has also been delegated to the hands of Taoism, although we are so bullish when we look at the Great Xiangguo Temple, but it is just a novel.

This may be related to Lin Lingsu's novice boy, who was a monk when he was a child, and was whipped by monks for drinking, or related to the later record of "going back and forth between Huaisi, beggars eat monks' temples, and monks and temples suffer", but in short, the gap between the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism is deeply planted.

Zhang Ruhui, the envoy of the imperial city, is naturally Lin Lingsu's hardcore confidant, otherwise he would not have handed over this nine-turn dragon and tiger golden pill to him, and on behalf of Taoism. According to historical records, when Lin Lingsu was repatriated to his hometown for retirement and died, Zhang Ruhui was the last person to accompany him, and he was the last one to support his coffin, which shows his close relationship with Lin Lingsu.

And Lin Lingsu's unbridled temper is naturally extremely familiar with the inheritance, Yu Rongdu's behavior completely aroused Zhang Ruhui's thoughts, stood up sharply, and said to Yu Rongdu, "You are not a Jinmen Yuke now, and you have no holy decree canonization, even if your majesty is canonized, I don't recognize Taoism." My Taoist sect is from the top down, and I don't act entirely on the basis of this title. ”

Master Guanyin glanced at Zhang Ruhui, and just said lightly, "Are you sad to represent Taoism, or can Lin Lingsu represent Taoism, or can your Wanshou Palace represent Taoism? Or can your Taoist Wanshou Palace be independent of His Majesty's rule and become a unified entity?

Yu Rongdu didn't speak, forced to this point, it's okay, at least let Zhao Ji see what Taoism has become under his connivance, this kind of wanton behavior is what any emperor doesn't like to see.

Zhang Ruhui said quibly, "My Taoist affairs are complicated and complicated, how can a hairy boy say that he can control it, once he is at a loss, the consequences are unimaginable, I am also for the sake of Tianqingguan and Wanshou Palace." Besides, Buddha is the Tao, and the monk is pressing forward step by step, I don't know if he wants to break with my Taoism and become an enemy?"

Guanyin still glanced at Zhang Ruhui indifferently, and just said to Yu Rongdu, "After the battle of the Three Immortal Islands, the battle between Shushan and the Demon Gate has become more and more intense, if there is no support from Shushan at this time, I don't know why your secular Taoism is arrogant?

After speaking, he glanced at Zhang Ruhui disappretently, and said softly, "I didn't expect that with Xu Shenweng's departure, Taoism in the secular world would fall to such a point, and its strength would decline, and there were few eyes that could be polished." Without the support of the secular imperial power, how much do you think your Taoism can do? It is the imperial power that we have retreated to, not your Taoism. ”

Guanyin's words came out, although they were soft, but they were clearly heard by Zhao Ji of Song Huizong.

This kind of deliberate words made Zhao Ji feel extremely satisfied, compared with Zhang Ruhui's expression, Buddhism was so superior, but he never thought of it.

Yu Rongdu saw the look on Zhao Ji's face, being able to be complimented by a bodhisattva, Zhao Ji must still be very satisfied, at this time there was only a fire, so he pretended to be unintentional and said, "By the way, the effect of this nine-turn dragon and tiger great return golden pill, it seems that it has not been clearly explained, although there are many people who take the elixir to become immortals, but there are also many accidents because of this." ”

Zhang Ruhui looked at Yu Rongdu angrily, and said sharply, "Although this golden pill does not have great power to shape a cultivator who refines the gods at one time, it is to eliminate a qiē obstacle, as long as you absorb the aura, you can naturally reach the realm, isn't this exactly what your majesty's cultivation needs!"

"Oh," Yu Rongdu thought for a moment and said guessfully, "Then this so-called Dragon and Tiger Golden Pill, I'm afraid it also contains the aura in the dragon vein of the National Fortune, right?"

Zhang Ruhui immediately paused when he heard this, because no matter who knows, the aura in the dragon vein of this national fortune is not something that ordinary people can embezzle, once it is misappropriated, it is an enemy of a dynasty, of course, the emperor himself is not among them.

Yu Rongdu knew that there was a door at a glance, and he guessed that if there was no such merit or the addition of humane spiritual objects, there would be no such elixir in the secular world, but he smiled more and more unfathomably and said, "I don't know, how many furnaces have been refined in this elixir, how many elixirs are in one furnace?"

Yu Rongdu's words immediately made Zhang Ruhui sweat like rain. And Zhao Ji also understood the point of Yu Rongdu's question, the effect of this elixir is undoubtedly powerful, but what is this amount? This is an elixir refined with the aura of the dragon vein of his Great Song Dynasty, if he takes it himself, it is just that, after all, the country is his, but it is used by others, or used like this, but he said that it cannot be tolerated.

Because strictly speaking, this is already a crime of transgression.

"One, one, only one Dan. Zhang Ruhui said in a low voice while wiping his cold sweat.

Zhao Ji also saw the problem at this time, snorted coldly, and said, "Passing on the decree, Lin Lingsu discussed the government in vain, bewitched and treacherous, changed the religion, slandered the minister, and became a doctor of Taixu, and returned to his hometown lightly!"
