Datang: At the beginning, Princess Wencheng was robbed

Chapter 170 The minister impeached Ding Guogong for making slaves and making trouble
Chang'an City.

At this time, in a Buddhist temple, a group of servants distributed ID cards with various important information written on them. They also stared at a fat man who had not received an ID card, but was quite fat and strong. monk.

"Are you from this Buddhist temple?"

The servant looked like a dog's leg, and suddenly asked with interest.

The fat-headed monk knew that these people belonged to the government and he couldn't afford to offend them, so he said, "Yes, I wonder if the chamberlains have any orders?"

The chamberlain said to the chamberlain behind him and all the monks queuing up to get their ID cards, including the abbot of the Buddhist temple: "He himself admitted this."

"He didn't register, and he couldn't get an ID card, but he became a monk of this Yuquan Temple. You didn't get the permission of the Buddhist priest, and you shave someone privately. Do you know, according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, what kind of crime is this?"

The fat-headed monk was also dumbfounded at this time.

No, why did you suddenly mention Tang Lv? Can that Tang Lv thing be a good thing?

The fat-headed monk didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at this time.

He also said with a smile on his face: "My lord servant is joking, let me be more accommodating, be more accommodating."

As he said that, he handed over three or five dollars to the servant.

Don't think that the three or five yuan is too little. During the Zhenguan period, it was enough to buy [-] catties of chestnut rice, which was enough for an adult to eat for several days.

But the waiter threw the other person's copper coins to the ground with a look of disgust, and said: "Knowing that you have already committed a crime, but still not repenting, and trying to bribe the clerk, this is simply a crime plus one. Come on!"

"exist!"

"Arrest him. Yuquan Temple is also guilty of knowingly committing a crime. The abbot was also arrested."

"No, why do you arrest people?"

"Just because we are the Buddhist department!"

Immediately after...

The few servants who went up to arrest people were all knocked to the ground.

In fact, it is also a kind of pervert.

It can be forgiven though.

After all, the balls are gone, and the male hormone must be a little less.

"Okay! You wait for me, and when I report this matter to Duke Ding, I'll see what you, you, and you guys do!"

……

Hall of Liangyi.

Xiao Yu is a solid Buddhist believer and has many friends in the Buddhist circle.

Even among his relatives, it seems that some became monks and then became abbots.

"Your Majesty, I impeach Duke Ding for allowing his slaves to cause trouble."

Li Er asked Wei Yan, "Is there such a thing?"

Wei Yan said: "Zuo Pu shoots, you can eat things indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. When did I indulge my slaves to make trouble?"

Xiao Yu said conveniently: "On the third day of this month, Duke Ding ordered people from the Buddhist Department to tamper with a monk in Yuquan Temple, Chang'an County, Chang'an City. Moreover, during the period, that evil slave threatened the public that they He is a member of Dingguogong, and he even threatened the monks of Yuquan Temple."

Li Er said: "Is there such a thing?"

Wei Yan: "No, it's just a misunderstanding. The real fact is that the abbot of Yuquan Temple ignored the law and ordained people privately, and the Department of Buddhism has the power to enforce the law and is acting in accordance with the relevant laws. And the man from Yuquan Temple who was privately ordained The ordained monks actually dared to resist the law and knocked down many staff members of the Department of Buddhism to the ground."

"Zuo Pushe is old, and it is easy to listen to other people's slander. I suggest that before Zuo Pushe wants to impeach me next time, he should go to understand the ins and outs of the matter for himself, instead of just believing what others say."

"Oh, I almost forgot, Zuo Pushe originally believed in Buddhism."

"This will naturally speak for the monks in the Buddhist temple."

"Your Majesty, I thought that at Zuo Pushe's age, it's normal for him to be a bit dull sometimes. I hope that His Majesty will forgive him this time for the sake of his courtiers for so many years."

Xiao Yu: "You...Your Majesty, Wei Yan is prejudiced against Buddhism! For the past two years, he has been intentionally delaying to prevent Buddhist believers from being ordained ordained monks. Moreover, he recently proposed that if you want to become a monk, you must first take the exam."

And this thing?

Li Er looked at Wei Yan again.

The rest of the ministers also looked at Wei Yan.

Wei Yan also said: "When did I have a prejudice against Buddhism, I love Buddhism so deeply, Buddhism is such a sacred religion, I just don't want it to be tarnished by a group of rats."

"Obviously believers' money is given to the Buddha. Why are they using it to buy land and keep it in their names? I think this is unreasonable. I know that the Buddha is so merciful. He is more willing to put those incense The money is distributed to the poor people."

"Therefore, I propose that next, we should tax Buddhist temples and donate the tax revenue to the people of the Tang Dynasty who need it, or use it to build roads and pave bridges for the people of the Tang Dynasty. This is what the Buddha most wishes to see."

Xiao Yu: "You..."

Li Er: "I think this is a good statement!"

Xiao Yu: "Your Majesty!"

Li Er: "Before the next impeachment, Zuo Pushe should investigate clearly."

Chu Suiliang also came out at this time and said: "Your Majesty!"

Li Er: "Chu Suiliang, what do you want to say?"

Chu Suiliang said conveniently: "I think that Ding Guogong's suggestion is inappropriate. The Tang Dynasty belongs to His Majesty's world, and the people of the Tang Dynasty are all His Majesty's people. Why do His Majesty's people need a Buddha to spend money to rescue them? If you go out, don't you want people to listen to the joke."

Wei Yan quickly said: "The admonition doctor is right. The Buddha is indeed not from my Tang Dynasty, but from the Western Regions. Why do the people of my Tang Dynasty need a Buddha from the Western Regions to save them. But, now that the Buddha He is from the Western Regions, so he should be considered a barbarian."

"That's because as a barbarian from outside, he did business in my Tang Dynasty and opened a lot of mansions, shops, stone mills, oil workshops, cart workshops, etc. Your Majesty...Compared with the practice of Hu merchants, should we What about levying a commercial tax on it?"

"Also, I, Tang Dynasty, shouldn't give the Hu people any more land. I propose that all their land be taken back."

Chu Suiliang: "Mr. Dingguo, you are arguing. If one is not good, just change it. Among the monks in the Buddhist temple, many of them are still the people of the Tang Dynasty."

Wei Yan said: "A person who changed his nationality from Tang Dynasty to become a barbarian, isn't he a traitor? I suggest that all be distributed to the frontier."

Chu Suiliang couldn't say no to him, but after thinking about it, he said again: "Mr. Ding, didn't you also say before that you love Buddhism deeply?"

Wei Yan: "That's right, I also love to eat Hubing, and I love it deeply. But I don't want to be a cake. The cake can only be used to fill my stomach, not to eat me. This The bottom line must be kept.”

"And some people, after listening to the Dharma for a few days, probably forget their last name. I think this kind of practice is very bad. It's like changing the name to Mingkong, Minghui..."

Li Er: "Okay."

Li Er quickly stopped.

If you keep talking like this, kid, you will talk about the late queen.

Li Er began to smooth things over and said: "These are all within the scope of the Buddhist Department's responsibilities. You can handle it yourself. Before the next impeachment, Zuo Pushe, let's find out the truth of the matter first. That's it, let's all retreat." .”

Xiao Yu: "Your Majesty!"

Li Er closed his eyes and waved to the people below.

Wei Yan recalled that Wu Cairen's name was Ming Kong. Fuck me, he had to change his name when he went back, or he might be caught by Chu Suiliang again.

What's the name?
How about calling Wu Ruanwen?

cough!No, after all...
