Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 82 Guo Rongzhi Buddha
In the early autumn, the inside and outside of Daliang City began to get busy. For farming civilization, autumn is both a harvest season and a busy season.

Daliang City was still busy, and the use of troops in the southwest did not actually make much waves in the country, except for the few days when the forbidden army was out of the city.

After all, the 10,000+ forbidden troops in Daliang only dispatched 5000 motion-controlled crane troops. For the entire Zhou Kingdom, this is not a big battle, and naturally the attention is not high.

On the contrary, the recent actions of the officials are even more eye-catching.

Officials found that because of the strong tradition of honoring Buddha in the Tang Dynasty, Buddhist temples did not need to pay taxes or perform military service, and many people evaded taxes on the grounds of being ordained.

Many Buddhist monasteries are doing shady deeds, taking in many criminals and rogues from the imperial court at large, and even worse, they have become monks and tyrants.

Therefore, after many discussions with many ministers in the court and drafting the charter, the official family personally issued an edict to clean up the Buddhist temples all over the world:
In all the prefectures, counties, towns, villages and squares, all the temples that have the imperial name can be kept as usual, and those that do not have the imperial title must be closed and abolished.

The statues of meritorious Buddha and monks and nuns in the monastery were all moved out and merged into the monasteries that were allowed to remain for resettlement.

In every county in the world, if there is no monastery with an imperial title at all, then select the monastery with the most treasure houses among the monasteries that should be closed and abolished, and keep one monastery each for monks and nuns.If there are no nuns to live in, only one monastery for monks will remain.

Military towns, cities and villages with more than [-] households are also handled in accordance with the regulations of each county.

For the monasteries in the remote prefectures that did not have an imperial title, two of the monasteries that should be closed and abolished were reserved for monks and nuns.

No new temples are allowed to be built in the future!

The princes, nobles, and the governors of various Daoist governors and others are not allowed to submit requests for the establishment of monasteries and the establishment of ordained altars in the future.

If a man or a woman wishes to become a monk, it is entirely up to their parents, grandparents and grandparents to decide. For those who are orphans, it is decided by their uncles and uncles who live with them.

Men over the age of 15 who can recite 13 pages of scriptures or [-] pages of scriptures, and girls over the age of [-] who can read [-] pages of scriptures or [-] pages of scriptures should apply to the government office where they live. Apply for a haircut.

The scriptures were read and read by the judges who joined the army.When the hair is not cut, the hair must be kept in a bun. If someone cuts his hair without permission, he will be ordered to return to the secular world.

Ordination altars were set up in Liangjing, Daming Mansion, Jingzhao Mansion, and Qingzhou. Waiting for the time to be ordained, the two Beijings appointed officials from the ancestral hall to conduct trials. The Daming Mansion and other three places only appointed judges from the prefecture to join the army.

If there is a person who is ordained privately, the person, the teacher, the three main guides of the altar, and the principal monk and nun will all be punished according to the private hair cutting rules.

Those who should cut their hair and receive ordination will be sent to the court from various places. After the edict is issued, the ancestral department will issue a certificate before they can cut their hair and receive the ordination.

Men and women whose parents and grandparents are still alive and who have no other sons to serve and support are not allowed to become monks.

Those who have committed crimes and have been punished by lawsuits; those who have deserted their parents; fugitive slaves; adulterers; traitors; gangsters; robbers in the mountains; uncaptured thieves;

If the monastery takes them in without authorization, he himself, the master, the three guides, the chief monk and nun, and the monks living next door will all be put on trial, and the verdict will be heard.

The emperor Guo Rong was very decisive in rectifying the Buddhist temples in the world, and he negotiated a feasible charter with the ministers and ministers of the DPRK, which could be quickly implemented.

So that the Buddhist temples in the world have no resistance at all.

This incident had a great response, because at this time there were still a lot of people in the world who believed in Buddhism, Buddhism had a great influence, and there were conflicts in some areas.

But now is a troubled time, Zhou Dynasty 10,000+ elite imperial troops are ready to go around Daliang, and most of the towns are waiting for the imperial order after the Battle of Gaoping, who dares to make mistakes?

Buddha is also afraid of spears and swords!

So within a few months, many Buddhist temples were destroyed, and many fake monks were driven out of the temples.

These influences on the dignitaries in Daliang City were not so great, and the Privy Council even kept receiving good news from the southwest, and everyone was beaming with joy.

The small battle in Guanzhong was not very important to the entire Liangliang, and the people did not pay much attention to it, but the Privy Council was always paying attention, and the DPRK also paid high attention to it.

The ministers in the court had a higher vision, knowing that only by removing the threat of Shu from the northwest could they start the next bigger action, and they would use troops against the Southern Tang state in the south without any worries.

In Wang Pu's strategy for the official family, the first thing to clean up was the Southern Tang Dynasty.

The Southern Tang Dynasty has fertile soil, a large population, and the country is prosperous. Moreover, unlike the Shu Kingdom, which is separated by mountains and mountains, the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Dazhou border are both plains and hills, which are very good for wars and national wars.

At that time, the 10,000+ forbidden troops of the Zhou Dynasty will go south in an all-round way, and the chances of winning the Southern Tang Kingdom are very small.

Kunning Hall is located at the back of Wansui Hall, which is the queen's bedroom. Queen Fu sits dignifiedly on a delicate nanmu chair, listening to the eunuch in front of him talking to him, and all the maids who are serving him are rejected.

She was born in a famous family since she was a child, and she is used to many constraints and rules. Even when no one is around, she will sit upright, pose well, and her manners are calm, giving people a sense of grace and luxury.

She has experienced a lot and knows a lot.

"That Shi Congyun left the pass in May and broke through eight Shu military camps in a row.
I heard that he also went into battle in armor himself, took the lead in killing the enemy, and was wounded in more than [-] places.
Later, when he arrived at the east of Wuwei City, he went into battle in person and defeated Li Yangui, the general of the state of Shu. He killed thousands of Shu troops and captured thousands of them.

Then they attacked Wuwei City, and they had already led their troops south to Fengzhou. "

The eunuch Wei Min reported to Empress Fu in a low voice.

He was originally the eunuch who held the candles in the Hanging Palace. He was quite clever and knew that he could not say these words to any woman in the palace, only Empress Fu, not just because of her empress.

The official family is very high-spirited. Compared with Tang Taizong, why would they marry a woman who was married?
It can only be explained that Queen Fu is not simple, and this is not simple because of her life experience and its own reasons.

"Is the official family happy?" Empress Fu did not comment on the matter, but asked a frivolous question.

Wei Min was stunned for a moment, carefully recalling that what he asked for from his godson was news, frowning and shaking his head: "This slave really can't remember, and I didn't ask about this."

Empress Fu slowly shook her head, with no expression on her face: "I don't know how to keep an eye on it if it's important, and it doesn't matter if it's long-winded."

Wei Min continued to crawl in the tunnel and said: "The servants are not good at doing things, which makes the empress unhappy, please punish me!"

Empress Fu was expressionless, raised her eyelids, and did not let Wei Min get up, she just said calmly, "You can talk about what happened later."

"Later, the ministers in the court were very happy. Kua Shi Congyun is a rare talent." Wei Min spoke a lot more carefully.

"What's the official reaction?"

"The official family. The official family didn't say a word, just nodded." Wei Min recalled the details carefully. He was also in the hall that day, responsible for the candlelight in the hall, which was one of the reasons why he was able to climb on the Queen's boat. .

Empress Fu whispered to herself: "As expected, in the future."

After hearing it, Wei Min became excited, because the events in the future were more interesting, and he remembered it clearly.
