Ye Qingyang called Ksitigarbha to him and told him about the next arrangement.
The next day, above the main hall, the morning court is in progress
Other matters have been discussed, but the most troublesome thing for Li Shimin is the disaster situation in the north.
"My loves, what are your thoughts on this drought in the north?"
Everyone in the court looked distressed, and they were all paying attention to the disaster.
The imperial court has also sent inspectors to help the victims.
It's just treating the symptoms but not the root cause. The most fundamental problem is that the treasury is empty and there is not enough food.
Disaster relief, no food, how can this be disaster relief!Make bricks without straw!
"Graduation, why don't we use the method of enlistment, and let the imperial court come forward to borrow rice and food from some wealthy people in the Tang Dynasty!" Cai Guogong stood up and proposed to the emperor.
"Rather than borrowing food, it's better to expropriate it! Is there any king in the world? As the people of the Tang Dynasty, these rich and powerful gentry have no reason not to contribute when the country is in crisis!" Zhao Guogong stood up and said.
"It is absolutely not possible to forcefully expropriate. The current domestic situation is unstable. If we forcibly expropriate food at this stage, it will only make these wealthy people huddle together. Not only will they not pay food, but it may also cause turmoil. It will be counterproductive!"
......
For a while, the court was arguing because of this matter.
Regarding this matter, Fang Xuanling's face was tangled, as if he wanted to say something, but for some reason, he was unwilling to stand up.
Li Shimin appreciated Fang Xuanling's attitude and said:
"Prime Minister, what do you think, but it's okay to say!"
Fang Xuanling stepped forward and replied:
"The minister is thinking, maybe there is a way, not only do we not need to borrow food from the rich, but we can also raise food as quickly as possible!"
After hearing what Fang Xuanling said, Li Shimin already knew what he was going to say next.
It seems that what the gentleman said yesterday had an extremely profound impact on both of them!
However, the idea is good, but it cannot be put into practice!
"Look over there! The vision is flickering!"
In the hall, someone shouted something, and everyone turned their heads to look outside.
At this time, in the direction of the west, the sky is full of Buddha lights, the lights are flickering, and the radiance is overflowing!
With so much light, the entire sky was dyed golden! .
141 Self-destructing the golden body of Buddha, reshaping faith (seeking subscription)
King Ksitigarbha was summoned by Ye Qingyang to come to the world to eliminate the remnants of Buddhism.
Previously, the Buddhist sect successfully transported the Buddhist scriptures to the east and successfully stole the luck of the human race, which led to the drought in the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
The drought in the north was severe, and countless mortals starved to death because of lack of food.
In such a chaotic world, mortal Buddhist disciples took advantage of the opportunity to publicize the theory of the afterlife of Buddhism, and took the opportunity to win over more Buddhist believers. Buddhist believers.
At this stage, the most important task is to gradually cleanse the influence of Buddhism in Datang, and gradually reverse the beliefs of these mortals.
Ksitigarbha left Ye Qingyang and went straight to Qinglong Temple, the largest temple in Chang'an City.
At this time, outside the Qinglong Temple, a large number of disaster victims gathered, all of them were waiting devoutly to go inside to offer incense and worship Buddha.
Inside the Qinglong Temple, the gates are closed.
Ksitigarbha looked at the situation in front of him and frowned.
It's ridiculous to think about it, if it wasn't for Ye Qingyang's advice, I still blindly believe in Buddhism and Dharma, thinking that they can really save all sentient beings.
Looking at the current situation, disaster victims are everywhere, and Buddhism will only close its doors, close its eyes and listen, and ignore the suffering of all living beings.
At this time, an elderly woman, with a six or seven-year-old child, staggered to the gate of Qinglong Temple.
The old woman patted the ragged clothes on the child, and said cautiously:
"We'll just wait here, this Qinglong Temple will open a quota every day, allowing us to go in and worship!"
"As long as we go in and sincerely pray to the Buddha, there will be food to eat soon!"
The little girl was already skinny, but her big eyes were piercing. She looked at her grandma expectantly.
At this time, there was a sound at the gate of Qinglong Temple, and someone came to open the door.
When these people heard the movement, they all rushed to the door in a swarm. The little girl and grandma were weak in the first place, so they couldn't resist these ferocious crowds, and they were squeezed out immediately.
The gate of Qinglong Temple was opened, and a novice wearing a monk's uniform walked out from the door. Because of his fat body, the monk's robe was tightly strung around his body, making his figure even more round. .
"Amitabha, there is only one quota to enter the temple to worship today, and only devout worshipers can enter. Take out all the things you have prepared!" The little novice monk looked at the crowd and said.
Hearing this, it seemed that these victims had been prepared for a long time, and they took out their offerings from their bosoms one after another, some with books in their hands, some with hairpins, and some with food that they had begged along the way. food......
And this old woman is only holding her granddaughter's hand, she can only be anxious, the food that can be sold in her family has already been consumed, so there is nothing left to offer!
Ksitigarbha saw everything in his eyes, and anger flashed in his eyes.
"Look at these people. They have been displaced along the way, and they have become so impoverished. Instead of taking them in, you still have the nerve to ask them to worship? Is this the universal salvation of all living beings in your Buddha's gate?"
Ksitigarbha couldn't stand it anymore, so he showed his true body and questioned the novice monk!
When the little monk heard such words, he became angry instantly, and scolded:
"Where did you come from to be a troublemaker? It has been the custom for generations to worship the Buddha, so why are you talking nonsense here!"
King Ksitigarbha said: "If it is a rule, how can the Buddha's actions be worthy of the four words of saving all living beings?"
"What do you know, if there is no offering, how can the Buddha see the sincerity of these believers!"
Other victims also echoed:
"I think you just didn't bring an offering, that's why you said such a thing, causing trouble here!"
"Only those who are sincere can enter! We don't bring anything, how can the Buddha see our sincerity?"
"I think you are dishonest, you don't deserve to be here at all!"
