People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 782
When the initial controversy was introduced to Chang'an from this magazine, everything became out of control.

There are also some people who said good things to Buddhism completely turned their backs, and for a while, their words were overwhelming and pressed against Buddhism.

Thousands of people gathered on Suzaku Street, and no one spoke for Buddhism at this time.

Kong Yingda watched the crowd on Suzaku Street become furious. For ordinary people, their greatest anger was that the Buddhist sect treated their prayers to the Buddha as a sale.

The dignitaries built temples and let the people go to the temples to offer incense money, and even the dignitaries took the lead to go to the temples to offer incense.

Then attract the common people to offer incense too.

In the end, the money of the dignitaries was returned in full, and the money of the common people was divided fifty-fifty.

The monks outside Chang'an City are all extremely rich.

This is a betrayal of all people.

This is also a lucrative deal.

If Jingyang Magazine didn't expose it, this deal could even last longer.

Zhongshu Sheng, the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Punishment hurriedly arranged manpower.

More and more people gather in front of Chengtian Gate, hoping that the court can help the people rehabilitate them.

Water can carry a boat and capsize it. In this Tang Dynasty, where the folk customs are strong, the emperor's opinion can be influenced by the courtiers, but the decision of the court will be influenced by the hearts of the people.

Princess Fangling hurriedly wrote a letter as soon as she received the news, and was about to be sent to Daci'en Temple when Li Xiaogong arrived with a group of officers and soldiers.

Li Xiaogong looked at Princess Fangling's mansion and said: "It doesn't look like much from the outside, but the inside is quite rich."

Princess Fangling also looked at Li Xiaogong, "What are you doing here?"

Li Xiaogong sighed, "Come with us to Zongzheng Temple."

Princess Fangling retreated from the left and right sides.

Understanding what the other party meant, Li Xiaogong also retreated from his side.

Princess Fangling said in a low voice, "What did Li Shimin say?"

Li Xiaogong nodded, "You should know what you have done."

Princess Fangling said again: "I'm going to see my father."

Li Xiaogong smiled and said: "The Supreme Emperor is in Jingyang, you know how much His Majesty values ​​Jingyang now."

Princess Fangling said in a low voice, "Are you following Li Shimin so wholeheartedly?"

Li Xiaogong raised his head and looked at the sky, "What about you? How many people persuaded you back then, but you still insisted on going your own way, how much care the queen gave you, His Majesty is already kind enough to you, why bother."

Princess Fangling walked in front of Li Xiaogong and said: "I will go to Zongzheng Temple with you, I only have one request."

Li Xiaogong smiled and said, "Talk about it first."

Princess Fangling thought for a while, "A few days ago, Changsun Wuji came to see me and talked about Lingyan Pavilion. I hope to let Changsun Wuji go to Lingyan Pavilion."

I don't know how she got involved with Changsun Wuji again.

Li Xiaogong didn't want to worry too much, so he greeted his subordinates and escorted Princess Fangling to Zongzheng Temple.

After glancing at the princess mansion, Li Xiaogong ordered again: "Search all over here."

Fang Ling has been a very wealthy man since he was a child.

How many brothers and sisters suffered at her hands when she was young.

When she grew up, Fang Ling did things unscrupulously, relying on Li Yuan's love for her, Li Jiancheng back then would give her three points.

After Li Shimin took the throne, she restrained herself a bit.

Only now did I know that she had done so many things behind her back.

In Chang'an Jingzhao Mansion, Li Chongyi looked at the magazine in his hand and finally understood what Li Zheng said before.

This matter is indeed beyond the control of the Jingzhao Mansion.

Team after team of officers and soldiers on Zhuque Avenue left Chang'an City to arrest people.

Cancellation of curfew.

It even let Zuo Wuwei lead the army to directly manage the security of Chang'an.

Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment took people.

The Ministry of Public Affairs and the Ministry of Household Affairs inspected various temples.

The court machine of the entire Tang Dynasty started to run, heading towards Buddhism.

Tang Xuanzang took the debate machine to the outside of the Daci'en Temple. From here, a large group of officers and soldiers could be seen from a distance, and officials came in and out from time to time.

Box after box of silver money was carried out of the temple.

Tang Xuanzang smiled wryly, and asked Bianji beside him, "Why is there so much money in the temple?"

Bian Ji thought for a while and said, "This should be incense money for pilgrims."

Tang Xuanzang closed his eyes and recited the Buddha's name, "The monks don't tell lies, you and I both know how much the incense money will be for the year of the Great Mercy, it is impossible to have so much."

Bianji was also silent, and said again: "Master Xuanzang, is there something wrong with us devoting ourselves to the Buddha?"

Tang Xuanzang shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Buddhism is right, but people's hearts are wrong."

After Tang Xuanzang finished speaking, he turned and left, Bian Ji wanted to follow his footsteps, and looked back at the Da Ci'en Temple.

He turned to Tang Xuanzang's back and said, "Master Xuanzang, where are you going?"

Tang Xuanzang did not answer Bian Ji's words, and walked away step by step.

When Tang Xuanzang walked aimlessly in the outskirts of Chang'an.

In the next few days, the government continued to arrest people from various temples.

Many dignitaries were imprisoned, or their property was confiscated.

Driven by power, public opinion and public opinion, Chang'an's court machine has become an unshakable boulder, crushing all stakeholders.

Under the absolute public anger, people vented all their anger on the temple.

Crowds of people picked up stones and even torches and threw them into the temple.

When Buddhism prides itself on being noble and detached from the world, when this person's establishment collapses, Buddhism will also face the most terrible backlash.

Tang Xuanzang visited one temple after another.

Some temples were even set on fire.

Some people rushed into the temple and snatched everything in the temple.

But the government did not stop it at all, allowing the people to release that kind of anger.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Tang Xuanzang recalled the big fire in Da Ci'en Temple.

Since returning to the Central Plains, I have heard too many things.

No matter how much Buddhism struggles, Li Zheng can always stand at the forefront of everything.

There must be Li Shimin's will in it.

Li Shimin will definitely eradicate most of the Buddhist forces through public opinion.

Li Zheng's moves followed each other, and they were all heading towards the most critical place in Buddhism.

Just about to leave Chang'an, Tang Xuanzang bumped into Li Junxian.

Li Junxian looked at Tang Xuanzang and said, "Your Majesty asked me to ask you some words."

Tang Xuanzang saluted slightly and said, "General, please speak."

Li Junxian stood up straight and said: "At the beginning, His Majesty asked you Tang Xuanzang to return to vulgarity, hoping that you could help Tang Dynasty govern the Western Regions. At that time, you refused. You have seen what Buddhism is like now. Tang can only follow the trend, and in such a situation, His Majesty will ask you again, are you still vulgar?"

Tang Xuanzang bowed and said: "The poor monk is unwilling to return to the vulgar."

After walking around Tang Xuanzang, Li Junxian said again: "Nowadays, as long as a Buddhist disciple is a monk, everyone shouts and beats him in the workshop. Of the [-] big temples around Chang'an, which one is clean, and behind every temple The interests of the rich and powerful, Tang Xuanzang, don’t you think it’s dirty?”
