Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

Or it's not just a headache, but worrying about where things are going.

Even one thing Li Shimin had to admit was the talent of this Asian father.

"First pay close attention to Taoist Qingze's movements, and notify me as soon as there is news."

After thinking about it for a while, Li Shimin said, since Yafu offered advice, it meant that the eminent monk's arrival in Chang'an was not so smooth this time.

In this case, it means that there is no need for him to act immediately, and it is better to wait and see what happens.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Junxian did not hesitate to speak out, he is doing this now, not only this Taoist, but also the Zen monk, but they are all under the surveillance of Baiqi.

"Apart from this incident, did anything else happen in Chang'an?"

Li Shimin couldn't help but continued to ask aloud, usually after a while, Baiqi would report something about Chang'an.

This time is also one of them, but because of hearing about the eminent Zen monk, the emperor was a little angry at the first time.

"Your Majesty, there is not much going on in Chang'an, but the eldest princess has been busy with some things recently."

Li Junxian heard the words of this majesty, he couldn't help thinking for a while and said.

After all, although Baiqi is in charge of the entire Chang'an, things don't happen every once in a while.

But this time, there is something to say, and that is about the eldest princess.

Just the first time, Li Shimin knew about his sister.

Although the relationship on the surface shows no signs of easing up, Li Shimin still pays close attention to this younger sister.

"Xiu Ning, what's the matter?"

Li Shimin couldn't help asking when he heard Li Junxian's words, with a trace of concern in his words.

All in all, he hadn't seen Xiu Ning since his return from Liaodong.

"The princess is fine, but she has become a matchmaker."

"And I also hope that Baiqi can help him investigate a few people."

......

A moment of hesitation flashed across Li Junxian's eyes, but he still quickly said everything.

Including the matter about Baiqi, because he dare not lie to this majesty, but he has not given an accurate answer on whether to help.

"I see!"

On the contrary, after listening to all the content, Li Shimin showed a look of enlightenment.

It turned out that it was for the affairs of the Detachment of Women, and it was clearly to learn from Yafu, but Li Shimin didn't say anything.

There is even some envy in his heart, knowing that Li Shimin also hopes to have such a trustworthy personal guard.

However, after taking this position, even Li Shimin couldn't trust anyone, even the closest personal guard.

And if you count it, the soldiers of the entire Tang Dynasty are defending his existence.

"Just check it out for Xiuning."

"But is this accompanying family fortune still repeated?"

Li Shimin frowned slightly and said, you must know that he has repeatedly applied for it more than once, but the effect still seems not obvious.

In his heart, he was more helpless. Although he was better than the aristocratic family before, the family of hundreds of years could not be so easily disintegrated.

Some things that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people can only be slowly eliminated by subtle influence.

So even if Li Xiuning violated what he said, Li Shimin didn't say anything. Of course, his thoughts on weakening these aristocratic families were even stronger.

........

Although Li Shimin in the court didn't react at the first time, he still paid attention to the eminent monk's lecture this time.

As for Chang'an Zhonghua, it was very lively. You must know that this eminent monk of the Tiantai sect had not entered Chang'an yet.

The Zen School has already started to build momentum, and the whole Chang'an is full of disturbances.

"I didn't expect an eminent monk to come to Chang'an to give lectures."

"This time, I must go and listen to the Buddhism of Zen."

"The last time I went to Tiantai Sect, it was a pity that I didn't meet the eminent monk. I didn't expect to have the opportunity now."

......

Chang'an is the focus of the confrontation between Taoism and Zen. There are not a few Taoist temples or Zen temples nearby, and naturally there are also many believers in Zen.

These believers were all very happy and excited, but Qing Ze secretly prepared according to the method obtained from Duke An Xuan.

Obviously, he was going to be caught off guard by the Zen sect, and even this Taoist Qingze was also worried.

Because I don't know whether the majesty in the court will continue to support the Taoist sect, after all, the impact of the previous incident is not small.

"There is no other way, we can only follow Anxuan Gong's words, otherwise the Huadao Sect will suffer a crushing defeat."

Taoist Qingze stood in a teahouse in Chang'an, his eyes fell on the streets of Chang'an, and occasionally he saw many monks flashing a hint of determination and whispering.

If the Daoist sect is far inferior to the Zen sect in terms of numbers, even Qing Ze himself, the person in power elected by the Daoist sect, cannot change the status quo.

Soon, as time passed, there were only three hours left before the agreed time for the lecture.

The selected time is Chen Shi, which is about seven to nine o'clock in the morning, and now it is dawn in the early morning.

A piece of news spread at the gate of Chang'an, instantly attracting the attention of many people.

"The Taoist sect is serving the common people in Chang'an today."

"All the people who were present were able to receive a small bag of rice."

.......

Originally, Qingze wanted to give out porridge, but later Laifu suggested that he give rice instead of porridge on the first day.

Compared with porridge, rice is undoubtedly more attractive, although it increases a lot of cost.

But if it can attract the people of Chang'an in one fell swoop, then the Zen School will naturally be left out, and the method will naturally be adopted by Qing Ze.

Sure enough, as soon as the news spread, it caused a lot of shock among the people in an instant.

"What, Daomen wants to send a small bag of rice."

"There is such a good thing, I have to go back immediately and let the children at home come with me."

.....

There was a hint of joy on the faces of the common people. No matter how much Shi Mi is, it is free for the common people. It can be said that they get something for nothing.

Why not? For a while, the news about this spread farther and farther. You must know that the people who get up early in the morning to go to the market are all ordinary people.

Chapter 6 Fourteen: Zen Gate loses power, benefits

When the morning court was over, the emperor couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. Some things in various places also made him a little bit physically and mentally exhausted.

Fortunately, it was finally over, but at this moment, Li Junxian came to this His Majesty in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, the Daoist Gate has moved."

Li Junxian's first sentence immediately cheered up the emperor, and a hint of interest appeared on his face.

"What did you do?"

Li Shimin asked in an instant, with a lot of interest in his words.

"In the early hours of the morning, around the time the city gates just opened."

......

Li Junxian also did not hesitate, and began to explain this matter for His Majesty.

Even Li Shimin's eyes showed a gleam, this timing was really good.

It happened to be a few hours before the eminent monk began to teach the Fa, and it was still early in the morning, so it was too late even if the Zen sect wanted to react.

As for wanting to shirk, it is even more impossible. You must know that Zen has been publicized for many days before.

If it is evasive, it will disappoint many believers, and it is even more unacceptable.

It can be said that in just a short moment, Zen sect was caught in a dilemma, and even Li Shimin couldn't help feeling secretly.

He didn't think it was the ability of that Qingze Taoist. If this person had the ability, the Taoist sect would not be suppressed like this.

So it is most likely that Yafu made a move, but he also saw the problem here, that is, the Zen sect followed the same method, so I am afraid that it will take a long time to fight in the ring.

Of course, for this kind of arena, Li Shimin felt that the more the better, it was enough to know that those common people would benefit in the end.

"Wait, the Taoist sect doesn't seem to have enough financial resources."

However, Li Shimin is also a smart person, and soon he figured out that there seemed to be some problems.

"Your Majesty, Duke Anxuan has sent a letter to the court to deliver to you."

However, at this moment, Wang De came from the outside and spoke respectfully beside Li Shimin.

Because of the previous order, naturally Wang De did not dare to delay the affairs of Duke Anxuan.

Li Shimin took the envelope without hesitation, opened it and watched the contents inside.

"I didn't expect that Yafu even counted me this time."

After reading the content, Li Shimin muttered something strangely on his face.

Of course, there are not many people who can calculate themselves, and Yafu is probably the only one who can calculate themselves clearly.

Even if those aristocratic families wanted to plot, they would only dare to act behind their backs.

This kind of feeling is a bit novel to Li Shimin, he didn't expect that he was tricked, and he still had to complete this matter.

"Jun Xian, I will leave this matter to you."

Li Shimin handed the envelope in his hand directly to Li Junxian and then spoke.

Regarding matters related to Taoism, it is enough for Baiqi to contact secretly, and it is also easy to say about extending a helping hand.

For Li Shimin, Li Shimin lost a lot of money when Fumi was distributed, but now Li Shimin is a very rich man.

Compared with Li Shimin in history, the difference between Li Shimin now is not 01:30.

Of course, the only thing that makes Li Shimin regret is that this incident has increased the reputation of the Taoist sect, not his reputation.

However, this matter should be done. If you want to let the Taoist sect fight against the Zen sect, you still need to give a lot of support.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

At this time, after Li Junxian replied, he began to arrange this matter.

He glanced briefly at the contents of the envelope, and understood the meaning of His Majesty's previous words.

......

Just as Li Shimin was making a decision in the court, the arena about Zen and Taoism also started.

Under mental arithmetic and unintentional, it can be said that there is a sharp contrast.

On one side is the lively scene of receiving Fumi, and on the other side is the empty scene of eminent monks giving lectures.

Even this eminent monk Fayun from Tiantai Sect couldn't help frowning a little more.

As for the Zen monks in Chang'an, their complexions are even more ugly at this time, especially the monk Fakong who presides over this Dharma meeting is even more ugly.

You must know that it was his plan to lose power before taking advantage of Daomen and enter Chang'an with a strong force.

The purpose is to further suppress the Taoist sect. Although within the scope of the Tang Dynasty, the power of the Zen sect is still greater than that of the Taoist sect.

But here in Chang'an is an exception, mainly because of His Majesty's previous support.

However, after knowing some things about the court from some channels, Fakong thought it was an opportunity.

So I started planning this event a long time ago, and I didn't expect the sudden change on this critical day.

"how so."

"These Taoist priests are too hateful."

Fakong gritted his teeth and said, obviously disgusted with Taoism even more, at this time he didn't look like a Zen monk at all.
