Monument Yangmen

Chapter 872
After saluting, Master Xian said with a sad face: "The old monk was bewitched by others and lost his Buddha's heart, which is why he made such a big mistake. The old monk is willing to die to apologize. I implore Your Majesty not to get involved in Buddhism."

Yang Qile smiled and said: "Old monk, you are smart, but do you think that I finally seized the opportunity and would easily let Buddhism go?"

Master Xian's face became even more bitter, "My Buddhism has not affected His Majesty's rule, and even under His Majesty's oppression, I have repeatedly made concessions. Why does Your Majesty want to kill them all?"

Yang Qi shook his head slightly, "You're not right, the existence of your Buddhism is affecting my rule. For thousands of years, your Buddhism has been lying on the people to suck blood, and the people have been squeezed enough by you. Now it's you It's time to pay off the debt."

"Can't His Majesty let us live?"

Yang Qi raised his eyebrows and said: "It's not like there is no way out. Your Buddhist sect can completely move away from Dayan, which I rule. Outside of Dayan, east, west, north, south, let your Buddhist sect gallop, and I will never interfere."

Master Xian gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, do you know that there is a saying that the homeland is hard to leave?"

Yang Qi sneered: "Is the land of the Central Plains the homeland of your Buddhism?"

"We've already put down roots."

"Then I will uproot you."

"Isn't Your Majesty afraid that our Buddhism will fight to the death?"

"Hehe, you also have to have that strength."

"Amitabha~"

Master Xian uttered the Buddha's name, and closed his eyes in pain.

He felt Yang Qi's determination to get rid of Buddhism, and also felt Yang Qi's unquestionable determination.

You can't persuade, you can't persuade, you can't fight.

For Buddhism, there is only one way to escape.

Yang Qi said lightly beside the idle: "I am a bit bloodthirsty, but I kill people who deserve to be killed. There are thousands of disciples of your Buddhist family, and there are many good people among them. I don't want to do things like killing them all. So there is a way out for you.

If you don't follow, then don't blame me for killing me.

Also, those who spread rumors in Yanjing City this time, hand them over.

Otherwise, I can't guarantee whether I will send someone to chase you down. "

"Amitabha……"

Master Idle proclaimed the Buddha's name again.

Yang Qi flicked his sleeves and left the cell.

Peng Pai followed closely behind Yang Qi, and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the old monk is in prison, how does he spread the news?"

Yang Qi glanced at Peng Pai, and said calmly: "Never underestimate these orthodox traditions that have been passed down for thousands of years. Their Taoism is far beyond your imagination."

It turns out.

Yang Qi's words are rarely wrong.

Just three days after Yang Qi talked with Master Xian, the monks in the temples in Yanjing City began to move.

almost overnight.

The monks who originally filled the streets of Yanjing City disappeared.

Even the monks in the temples in Yanjing City disappeared completely.

Immediately afterwards, news of the disappearance of the monks came from all over the Great Yan Kingdom.

Inside the imperial study.

Peng Pai said in disbelief: "Your Majesty, why are these monks so obedient?"

Yang Qi said with a smile: "I control the absolute power of a country. In front of a country, no matter how strong the orthodoxy is, it has to be subdued. I never thought about losing to Buddhism.

What's more, this time the Buddhist sect has been caught by me, and I can send heavy troops to wipe them out at any time.

In this case, they had to give in. "

Peng Pai said with emotion: "Thousands of years of orthodoxy were wiped out by His Majesty, I really don't know how to praise Your Majesty..."

Yang Qi rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "Never mind flattering..."

Peng Pai smiled awkwardly, and immediately asked, "Your Majesty, the Buddhist sect has surrendered and fled from my Great Yan Kingdom, what should Master Idle do?"

Yang Qi was slightly taken aback, shook his head and smiled, "You don't need to worry about this, he is a smart man and knows what to do."

Peng Pai nodded suspiciously.

That afternoon.

As soon as Peng Pai returned to the prison of the Supervision Department, he heard a jailer tell him that Master Xian had hanged himself in the prison. In addition, there were nearly a hundred more heads in Master Xian's cell.

Peng Pai hurried to Master Xian's cell, and saw a room full of heads.

From those heads, he could easily tell that those were the heads of monks.

"Your Majesty is truly exhaustive..."

Peng Pai looked at the heads all over the room and sighed sincerely.

however.

This is not the case.

What really forced Master Xian to hang himself and the Buddhist sect to hand over these heads was not Yang Qi's calculations, but the tyrannical forces of the Great Yan Kingdom.

The Buddhist sect wanted to withdraw from the Great Yan Kingdom, so how could it be possible to hide it from Yang Qi.

Almost at the same time that Buddhism withdrew from Dayan Kingdom.

Yang Qi has already sent a secret order to the town troops in various parts of the Dayan Kingdom, ordering them to lead the fierce soldiers to follow behind the Buddhist monks who evacuated from Dayan.

It was precisely because of the threat that Buddhism had to treat Master Idle as an abandoned son.

If Yang Qi hadn't sent soldiers and horses to threaten him, Master Xian would not have committed suicide so happily.

From then on, the two serious worries that weighed on Yang Qi's heart were completely eliminated.

Only the Confucian lineage remained.

Compared with Buddhism and Taoism, Confucianism has already invaded every corner of the Central Plains.
Yang Qi used the serious crime of assassinating the king, beheaded the father and son of the Wang family, and beheaded hundreds of officials, but no one stopped him.

But when Yang Qi was about to raise the butcher knife to Kong Lianjie.

Memorials of resignation and intercession came like snowflakes.

Yang Qi even saw the memorials of Su Yijian, Lu Duan, Xiang Minzhong and others.

In the memorials of Lu Duan, Xiang Minzhong and others, they tactfully persuaded Yang Qi not to kill Kong Lianjie, so as to save some sympathy for the saint.

Su Yijian's memorial was much more unrestrained. He almost told Yang Qi in plain language throughout the whole article, how harmful it would be after killing Kong Lianjie, and told Yang Qi clearly.

In the hearts of Confucian scholars, if they can't even keep the descendants of saints, what kind of Confucian scholars are they.

Kong Lianjie is like the tip of an iceberg. After opening it, there is a huge monster hidden underneath.

Facing the persuasion and the threat of resignation from nearly all civil officials in Dayan, Yang Qi was very angry, but he couldn't hold up the butcher's knife.

He felt betrayed by all civil servants in his heart.

So he was extremely irritable.

Inside the imperial study.

Yang Zongwei was slapped by Yang Qi with a board just because he wrote three words wrong.

Yang Zongwei's aggrieved eyes dropped Jindouzi.

Mu Guiying hid aside in fright, the corners of her mouth twitching.

After beating Yang Zongwei, Yang Qi smoothly pulled Di Qing over to beat him a few more times.

Di Qing was far tougher than Yang Zongwei, even though his palms were red from the beating, he resisted crying.

"Yo Yo Yo...Your Majesty is so majestic, he was shattered in the hands of the ministers, and he actually vented his anger on the child..."

Chuxing was holding a few bowls of sweet soup, and just entered the imperial study, seeing Yang Qi's brutal appearance of beating the child, he couldn't help but sneered.

Yang Zongwei seemed to see a savior, with golden beans in his eyes, looking at Chuxing pitifully.

"Good boy, don't cry, don't cry..."

Chuxing pityfully went up to comfort Yang Zongwei.

Yang Qi's face was black, his eyes were wide open and he roared: "A loving mother is a failure..."

Chu Xing raised his eyebrows, and replied unceremoniously, "He is not a concubine's child... Good boy, don't cry, don't cry..."

Seeing someone supporting him, Yang Zongwei hurriedly hid in Chu Xing's arms, and then looked at Yang Qi with resentment in his small eyes.

Yang Qi stared at his eyes and shouted: "I did something wrong, I will teach you a lesson, do you have any objections?"

Yang Zongwei was startled and shook his head quickly.

Chuxing rolled his eyes and glared at Yang Qi angrily, "Don't scare the child..."

Then he turned to the three little guys and said, "Let's go out and play..."

The three little guys didn't rush out, but looked at Yang Qi with a look of fear.

Yang Qi pursed his lips angrily, "Get lost..."

The three little guys ran out of the imperial study in a frenzy as if they had received an amnesty.

Chu Xing wryly smiled and picked up a bowl of sweet soup, brought it to Yang Qi, and said quietly: "Your Majesty is really angry, drink a bowl of sweet soup to reduce the fire, and the concubine put a lot of frosting sugar in it."

Yang Qi picked up the sweet soup, drank it down, and said indignantly: "It's really deceiving people too much. If it wasn't for the time when I was employing people, I would like to kill them all."

Chu Xing comforted softly at the side: "Your Majesty, Confucianism is different from Buddhism and Taoism. Although Buddhism and Taoism have a thousand-year heritage, they have always relied on believers and accumulated only some property.

Confucianism is different. After thousands of years of baptism, Confucianism has already invaded all aspects of the Central Plains.

What they accumulate is more prestige.

Over time, the prestige of Confucianism has reached the peak of the sky.

The most important thing is that throughout the dynasties, the disciples of Confucianism spread throughout the court.

Wanting to deal with Confucianism is definitely not something that happens overnight.

Your Majesty, why are you so anxious?
Anyway, Yenching University Hall and Jinling University Hall are under construction.

As long as your majesty can withstand the pressure and don't let go of the imperial examination, after a few years, Confucianism will collapse on its own. "

Yang Qi obviously listened to Chu Xing's soft-spoken persuasion.

What Xiang Minzhong said was indeed correct, Yang Qi is a typical example of being soft but not hard.

Yang Qi let out a long breath, and said with a wry smile: "I'm a little impatient... Confucianism is indeed different from Buddhism and Taoism, and I just want to deal with a Kong Lianjie, which caused such a backlash.

Confucianism has invaded the blood of the Central Plains, and it is indeed difficult to eradicate it for a while.

Unless I..."

Chuxing blinked curiously and asked, "Unless what?"

unless what?
Unless a vigorous cultural reform is set off.

Under that kind of vigorous reform, Confucianism will be torn to pieces.

It's just that it hurts the country too much.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, Yang Qi will never use it.

Yang Qi said vaguely: "Nothing..."

He changed the subject and said: "By the way, don't spoil the three little fellows of Zong Wei. The three of them have been spoiled by you, and they have become a bully in the palace. The Tuo wooden handle on the Niangli flower gun, and Dad The three of them burned the iron and wood handle on the big golden knife into a fire stick. They also plausibly said that these things were kept in the palace, and they lacked some fireworks, so they filled them with fireworks.

Especially Xiao Zongwei, while his father was asleep, the fire burned his beard, which made his father ashamed to go to the martial arts academy to teach, and made me roll his eyes for several days.

Otherwise, do you really think that I will hit them because of a few typos? "

"Giggle..."

When I first woke up, I was amused by the great achievements of the three little guys.

She covered her mouth and smiled, "Father and mother didn't blame them, what are you blaming them for?"

Yang Qi put on a serious face, "They have to be fearful in their hearts. If they really want to develop a character of doing whatever they want, then it will be the people of Dayan Kingdom who will suffer."

Chu Xing smiled and said: "It seems that Your Majesty has high expectations for the three little guys! The three of them are just playing around, and they don't have much homework other than writing with you every day.

If you don't let them learn the red tape etiquette, they will naturally have endless energy to toss.

Hitting children is never an option, Your Majesty, you just need to find a way to drain their energy. "

Yang Qi raised his chin, thoughtfully, "You are right, the three little guys are not young anymore, it's time to stretch their muscles and bones."

"Chen Lin!"

"The servant is here!"

"Go and pass on my will, invite Yang Hong back to Yanjing City, and enter the palace to have an audience."

"No~"

Regarding the matter of the three little guys learning martial arts, Yang Qi had a plan in mind.

The Yang family has the martial arts inherited from the Yang family, but they are currently free, and only Lao Yang is the only one.

However, Lao Yang was very kind to Yang Zongwei and the three little guys.

Even if Yang Zongwei and the three little guys burned Lao Yang's beard, Lao Yang just stared at them and frightened them.

Every time he saw Lao Yang running around the palace with Yang Zongwei on his neck, Yang Qi felt the urge to cry.

He really wanted to catch Lao Yang and ask, isn't that how you treated me back then?

So, if you hand over the three little guys to Lao Yang, you will definitely be spoiled by Lao Yang.

In comparison, Yang Hong is much better.

Yang Hong has a gentle temperament, but he has his own persistence.

When faced with certain things, his attitude is unusually tough.

Although Yang Hong is not proficient in the martial arts inherited from the Yang family, he is proficient in other weapons.

There is a saying that the moon stick practices the gun for a long time.

Marksmanship is the most difficult to practice.

The children are working hard, which is just suitable for playing the basic stick technique.

When the three little guys are playing well with stick skills, and when the root bones are fully grown, it is just right to practice marksmanship.

After the three little guys left the imperial study room, they ran to the imperial garden to play happily.

They didn't know at all that Yang Qi had clearly arranged their study plan.

The three of them probably only have a few days left to live happily.

Chuxing accompanied Yang Qi, and said a lot of comforting words.

He didn't leave the imperial study room until Yang Qi's oppression in his chest was relieved.

After waking up and leaving the imperial study room.

Yang Qi got up slowly, walked to the edge of the south wall, looked at the huge map above it, looked at the logos of the colleges on it, and muttered to himself.

"I need to protect you from growing up slowly. If you don't grow up, I don't dare to deal with Confucianism ruthlessly!"

Just from the desperate efforts of all the officials to protect Kong Lianjie, Yang Qi can easily see that Confucianism has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people of the world.

Kong Lianjie is just a worthless prodigal son. The scandals he has done can be said to be countless, but even so, all officials still protect him.

It can be seen from this that Confucianism and Confucius are not separated.
