Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 721 Official Buddhist Precepts

Daozhen opened the official document and looked at it, his face changed drastically.

"Didn't you guess it? I let Xuanzang leave Chang'an because of a conspiracy. In fact, the conspiracy has nothing to do with it. In your terms, all of this is cause and effect."

"Please enlighten me."

"Because, I don't know much about the Buddhism of the Han family in the Central Plains, but I do know that the Buddhas worshiped here also look different. It seems that the Bodhisattvas in Tianzhu are male, but they become female when they come to us. What is Tianzhu doing, they have their Buddha, we have ours, you don’t understand this, or you don’t agree with it. Then the result is, it’s better to kill the wrong one than let it go.”

Liu Mu's tone was very flat, but the result was that these monks felt scared.

What was written in Liu Mu's official document, after the monks circulated it, they all felt terrified.

"The official document is the result. Xuanzang didn't want to go west, okay! If I let him go west, if that small country in the Western Regions dares to give him a grain of rice, then it is equivalent to taking in my treasonous person from the Tang Dynasty, which is equivalent to treason. Gao Chang, Don't you respect him as your master, then King Gaochang will also see it, my Tang's steel sword and cavalry."

"Why?" Daozhen has lost his composure.

Liu Mu laughed: "Ask me why? Using a so-called god created by foreigners to deceive the people of Tang Dynasty, is this what you call goodness. How many years has the civilization of the Central Plains been passed down since the Three Emperors and Five Emperors? It is our foundation, using foreign civilizations to invade our culture, what is the difference between this and opening the city gate to attract foreign enemies into the city."

At that moment, a monk retorted.

"Benefactor Liu, you are also using medical books from faraway countries in the far west to improve the medical skills of the Tang Dynasty."

"Stupid!" Daozhen shouted angrily, "How can these two things be compared?"

Willow just smiled.

Daozhen got up: "The poor monk understands what benefactor Liu means, but this matter is extremely difficult. It is equivalent to creating a new Buddha."

"I'm not in a hurry, maybe you are in a hurry than me."

What Liu Mu said was right. In the hearts of these monks, the temples have been sealed for a long time, and many large temples have been converted into academies, medical centers and the like.The longer this drags on, the less sense of existence Buddhism will have.

But in fact, Liu Mu is more afraid that millions of believers can't find an outlet to vent their emotions, and troubles will arise in the long run.

Liu Mu went on to say: "It's a school of its own, it's a school of its own, whether it's one person, or several people. Whoever has his own theory and scriptures first, I will build a temple for him. If you can't do it, you can still I think in my head that there is a monk who deceives people and deceives ghosts and gods. If I don’t want to be killed by me in Datang, then I will leave Datang and lie to people outside of Datang. In short, Datang has no way out for these people.”

"Four principles..."

Willow is going to build a new Buddhist gate.

Liumu's requirements are very simple, everything is based on Chinese civilization, loyal to the emperor and patriotic, good and evil in this world, temple accounts are always available for inspection.

Like the Buddha statue that used tens of thousands of stones and copper and hundreds of catties of gold to cross the gold, as soon as this kind of thing was found, all the monks in the temple were sent to coolie camps directly. Buddha statues can only be made of wood or mud and then painted.

Any extravagant items are prohibited from appearing in the temple, etc.

A thick booklet of Buddhist rules, with nearly [-] words of rules and regulations.

Liu Mu didn't bother to explain this.

"Just a word, this thing is the precepts of Tang Buddhism. Whoever is not convinced can try with his head and a steel knife to see who is tougher. Ten days, ten days at most, I will hear your results."

"Okay!" The monks agreed.

"Enough business, let's gossip. How about my story?"

Daozhen replied: "Fang is a real eminent monk."

"Look, I know monks quite well. Believe me, good monks have a future, but bad monks..." Liu Mu just smiled and said nothing, took back the official document and put it back in his backpack: "This matter must be kept secret. .Ten days, after ten days I will wait for your results."

After Liu Mu finished speaking, he left the big room.

Outside the house, Zhang Chuchen was standing by the flower bed waiting for Liu Mu, and when Liu Mu came out, Zhang Chuchen said: "This method is probably feasible, but the trouble is whether it will really follow your idea in the future, and it is always a bad thing for Xuanzang to be alive." .”

"After the Great Tang destroys Tianzhu, let the new Buddhism of the Tang Dynasty become a classic, and then in turn educate the people of Tianzhu. Then Xuanzang is still alive."

At this time, Gao Chang.

Gaochang is not small, because the Western Region has a vast area. Gaochang has five big cities, namely Gaochang, Tiandi, Jiaohe, Puchang, and Tianshan. There are 22 cities in all counties.

In the royal city of Gaochang, Qu Wentai, king of Gaochang, had four documents from the Tang Dynasty in front of him.

Gaochang's important ministers stood on both sides, all lowered their heads and remained silent.

"The first one is the pleading paper of Shi Wannian, the owner of Yiwu City. It was sent by the official document of the Tang Rites. It says that someone has invaded Yiwu's pasture and their vineyard. Let us hand over the murderer."

Qu Wentai, king of Gaochang, put the official document on his desk and picked up the second one.

"This is an official document from the Criminal Department of the Tang Dynasty, asking Gaochang to hand over the prisoners who robbed Western Turks and Datang merchants, and warned us not to send a few people to make up the number. Datang knows who is going to rob. Mi Anxing. "

King Gaochang stopped talking after reading the name, he was waiting for the reaction of his courtiers.

Gaochang is a country established by the exiled Han people for hundreds of years. From the Wei and Jin Dynasties, a large number of people migrated to the Western Regions to escape the war, and then combined with a few local nomadic tribes.Gaochang has good farmland and vast pastures. The cultivation of the Han people and the animal husbandry of the herdsmen make Gaochang a relatively powerful country in the Western Regions.

In addition, the Han people like to build cities, and the 22 cities became Gaochang's guarantee against the Turks and the Central Plains.

But now, Datang wants General Gaochang Zuowei, who is also the highest-ranking general in Gaochang. The reason is to rob the joint caravan of our Datang merchants and Turkic merchants.

After waiting for a long time, no one spoke, and no one dared to speak at this time.

Qu Wentai picked up the third copy: "This is a letter from the governor of Liangzhou, the Tang army. He said that we have both sides, and we have close contacts with East Turkic Jieli and Western Turkic rebels against Niyi. He hopes that we will make the right choice. If you are sincere, please immediately go to Chang'an to explain the matter."

"Father, Tang Chang'an is more than 7000 miles away from us. It is impossible for the Tang people to send heavy troops here. A few soldiers are not enough to conquer the city. The water and soil here are different from the Central Plains, and the climate is also very different. We have the advantage of land. Never go there Chang'an, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back once I go."

Qu Zhisheng, as the son of the crown prince, had to express some opinions at this time.
