Zhenguan's prosperity and fame

Chapter 328 Buddhist Monk, Medical Monk?
"Do you understand what this king asked Qingque to bring to you?"

"Young monk is stupid!"

"Humph!"

Li Fangchen stood up and walked out of the house, Xuanzang hurriedly followed.

"Look, for at most ten years, this kind of Zhuangzi will be everywhere in the Tang Dynasty. By then, the common people will not have to worry about food and clothing. What is the use of your Buddhism?"

Xuanzang was surprised, he didn't expect His Royal Highness King Qin to say that.

Thinking about it this way, His Royal Highness the King of Qin probably had deep intentions in building the King of Qin Villa.

"Buddhism can soothe the hearts of the people and relieve the worries of others."

"not enough!"

An excuse Xuanzang finally came up with was rejected by Li Fangchen on the spot.

"This"

Li Fangchen regained his senses and stared at Xuanzang. The powerful aura that appeared out of nowhere made Xuanzang's breathing heavy.

"Please speak clearly, Your Highness!"

"Can you represent Buddhism?"

"Little monk, yes!"

At this point, there is no more nonsense to say, there is only one way for Buddhism to go now.

Before, they thought it would be good to give King Qin an explanation, but no one expected the final result, which made them feel a little cold all over themselves.

You must know that the Buddha statues in Daxiangguo Temple are only painted with a layer of gold.

After learning about the situation of the temples in Chang'an City, Daxiangguo Temple immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

This is not an explanation to King Qin, it is clearly an explanation to himself.

There have been serious problems in the development of Buddhism. For the first time, Buddhist monks who devoted themselves to worshiping Buddha discovered that they were unfamiliar with Buddhism.

That's why the following things happened. It's not so much that their conscience found out, it's better to say that they were atoning for the sins in their hearts.

The Buddha talks about marriage and narrates cause and effect.

The Buddha said that all living beings are suffering, and all things have spirituality.

The Buddha set an example, not afraid of hardships and dangers, and not greedy for people's desires, only then can he get the true meaning of Buddhism.

But today's Buddhist gate is no longer the place of the good Buddha in the past.

There are countless monks of all kinds, and temples of different sizes are everywhere.

Has their Buddha fallen?
No!It is they who have fallen, seeking self-interested strategies, and doing things that disrupt the Buddha.

According to the investigation, among the group of dismissed Buddhist monks, there are many perpetrators.

In order to escape the guilt, this is the time to seek help from the Buddhist sect.

Buddhism is protecting them, which is tantamount to trampling on the laws of the Tang Dynasty.

His Royal Highness King Qin is right, Buddhism has become a country within a country.

Xuanzang persuaded all the teachers and brothers to use the name of the Daxiangguo Temple to initiate the first Buddhist change in the Tang Dynasty.

Clean up the miscellaneous monks, the Golden Buddha will not remain, and the cultivated land will be returned.

Because they are afraid that the heart of a saint is unpredictable. If they anger the saint in the future, they are afraid that the Buddha will not exist at that time.

The Buddha, after all, is in the sky and cannot control the emperor on the ground.

Similarly, Buddhism shouldn't interfere in the mundane world. Isn't it good to be a spectator obediently?

Do people need Buddhism?

In fact, it is not necessary. If Buddhism is destroyed, how much turmoil will there be with the Tang Dynasty?
Without Buddhism, there can also be Confucianism, Taoism, and Legalism.
Li Fangchen did not expect that Xuanzang, whom he despised, would cause a major change in Buddhism.

Even though Buddhism has already paid a heavy price, Li Fangchen is not satisfied. He feels that Buddhism can do better.

"Xuanzang, I ask you why Buddhism was spread to the East?"

Xuanzang hesitated, intending to say some Buddhist allusions, but in front of King Qin, he didn't dare to say more.

"I don't know, little monk." Maybe His Royal Highness King Qin can give him a satisfactory answer?
"The Buddha is the Buddha of Kapilavastu, and in Kapilavastu, the Buddha is the faith. The people are divided into four classes, Brahmans are the most, and most of them are monks. They offer sacrifices to gods, explain the teachings, and are supported by the people."

Xuanzang's eyes lit up, he was really not clear about this kind of thing.

Little did they know, this was the hierarchical system of ancient India after the transformation from generation to generation.

"The second class is the Kshatriya, the king, the gentry, and the officials; the third class is the Vaishya, which is the same as the people of our Tang Dynasty; the fourth class is the Sudra, the most humble slave. The fourth class is divided into the same level. Intermarriage is not allowed. None Imperial examinations, no promotion, their lives were doomed from birth. The spread of Buddhism to the East, in the final analysis, is more like an invasion, allowing the teachings of Kapilavastu to affect the people of the Tang Dynasty. When the right time comes, the Tang Dynasty will surely Get it in his pocket!"

The more Xuanzang heard it, the more frightened he became. He didn't know how His Royal Highness the King of Qin knew.

"What benefit does such a Buddha have for my Tang Dynasty? The Buddha does not cultivate or rule the country, but lives in a high position and enjoys the support of all people?"

Xuanzang was also a little silent, and all living beings are equal in the Buddhist scriptures, but there are Buddhist slaves in the Buddhist kingdom, which is against each other.

But if you don't believe it, you can't.

Because the four surnames mentioned by His Royal Highness King Qin are often mentioned in Buddhist scriptures.

Moreover, His Royal Highness King Qin is not going to deceive him, things in the world are roughly the same.

"Since the Buddha emphasizes not fighting, why do you want to fight? Fields, people, money?"

Seeing Li Fangchen mentioning this matter, Xuanzang also looked embarrassed. He felt ashamed in his heart, never thought that Buddhism would look like it is now.

Li Fangchen then raised his head and looked up at the sky, "Buddha said that if you don't kill, you can save. Have you ever saved someone?"

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, but how many people have been saved by this little monk?"

"Why not save thousands of people?"

"The power of one little monk is not enough to save thousands of people."

Li Fangchen smiled, "What if I give you this chance?"

At this point, Li Fangchen finally showed his fox tail. Some time ago, it was all sticks and threats, and now it's time to show the carrot.

Let Xuanzang go west?
What's the use, the world map is in Li Fangchen's mind, but today's Tang Dynasty is not enough to expand the country, frequent wars will only lead to more tragedies.

Why not use monks to heal people?

The Buddha loves the world, and the Buddha saves the common people.

Obviously the slogan is so, why not lead by example?

Looking at the major games of later generations, isn't Buddhism represented by saving people?
"Come here a monk, the kind with big breasts."

In the era of rampant mobile games, what does milk big represent?
Naturally, there are countless teammates and endless levels.

Xuanzang didn't know anything about the evil tastes in Li Fangchen's mind. In Li Fangchen's mind, Buddhist monks as doctors could not be more suitable!
That being the case, why not use the power of Buddhism to create monks and soldiers that belong exclusively to the Tang Dynasty.

There are many people with conscience in Taoism, but most of them are still quiet and inaction.

Their morality determines that it is impossible for all members of the Taoist school to become doctors, not to mention the incomparably precious chemists of the Tang Dynasty, but they are all in the Taoist school!

You can only start from Buddhism, and with the help of Buddhist teachings, wouldn't it be easy to pull up a medical team?
"Your Highness, what do you mean?"

"This king contributes, and you contribute people. The Buddhists don't kill, but why don't they save them? What's wrong with the way of the doctor in the Tang Dynasty Buddhism in the future?"

Xuanzang hesitated a little, "Can this matter be allowed to be discussed with all the brothers and sisters after returning to the monastery?"

Li Fangchen agreed, "I'll give you seven days, if you don't agree, I can go to the Taoist sect!"

Thinking about it carefully, in the future, on the battlefield, it would be a beautiful thing for monk-robed doctors to save people and treat diseases everywhere!
"Thank you, Your Highness, the monk will leave!"

The seven days were neither long nor short, and compared to the temples in Chang'an City, it was like a disaster.

Xuanzang told the king of Qin what he wanted, but was immediately opposed by others.

In the eyes of Buddhist monks, paying homage to Buddha is the most important thing they should do.

Xuanzang was also like this, but there were too many people who opposed it, which made him afraid.

I have doubts in my heart, is it really good for Buddhism to stick to the old rules?
Afterwards, the White Wolf Army under King Qin's command was mobilized, and all the temples that had not dispersed the monks and handed over the title deeds were all suffering.

Many Buddhist temples were demolished, and the White Wolf Army seized countless gold and silver treasures, including two fugitives who remained anonymous.

In front of Buddhism, there are only two ways, either listen to King Qin's words, or the two sides are at odds.

Qin Wang Li Fangchen used his own actions to prove his Buddhist disgust.

In this regard, Li Shimin sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight, and when Li Fangchen had killed enough in the end, he would come forward to save some people from the Buddhist sect.

If the Buddhist sect dared to offend, Li Shimin would probably help King Qin.

In Chang'an City, the major families kept silent during the negotiation between the Buddhist sect and King Qin.

Because they don't understand, let alone participate in it.

On weekdays, they often go to temples to burn incense and worship Buddha, but when Buddhism really showed its true heritage, they were shocked.

The monks are richer than them, and even hide so many monks in the temple, what do they want?
