Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Besides, morally speaking, there is nothing to complain about.If any minister really doesn't open his eyes to write a letter, maybe it will be recorded in the history books in the future, saying that so-and-so has ulterior motives and alienated the Tian family.This is fairly light, if someone has a lot of associations, maybe the shit pot of the Xuanwu Gate Change will have to be pinned on this person's head.What the hell is going on here?

Empress Changsun also greatly agreed with Luo Ersuopo's move, but she took the opportunity to tell His Majesty Li Er that you have forgiven so many people, so should Yu Chigong be released?Although he wanted to assassinate the god monk Luoer Sapo, he failed after all, didn't he?

Luo Er Suopo persuaded His Majesty Li Er to give up hatred and put it on his own head. You can't play double standards, and you can only pretend to agree, so His Majesty Li Er swiped his pen and called Yu Chigong to return to Beijing today. Official reinstatement!

To say that Queen Changsun is also a wonderful person, worthy of being a worthy empress of a generation, even though Luo Ersapo's suggestion was quite beneficial to her - to put her two sons back, she still did not change her original intention.Guo Ye should act as soon as possible to get rid of Luoer Sapo.Her reasoning is also very simple - what the old monk said to His Majesty is more effective than this palace, whether it is tolerable or unbearable, it must be eliminated soon!

However, there is really no rush for this matter. On the second day after His Majesty Li Er issued the reinstatement of Yuchi Gong, another imperial decree from His Majesty Li Er came to Guo Ye's mansion again, ordering Guo Ye to send three hundred Goguryeo beauties to Guo Ye as soon as possible. In the palace of Jiuyi Mountain, Guo Ye was extremely worried about this decree!

Guo Ye didn't have any complaints about sending it to the imperial palace, but Guo Ye knew that there would be no good things if it was sent to the palace in Jiuyi Mountain!

This Jiuyi Mountain is not too far from Chang'an City, which is a hundred miles away. Looking from the top of Chang'an City, you can see the outline of Jiuyi Mountain.It is the highest mountain near Chang'an City.

However, this high mountain has another nickname - Zhaoling!The cemetery that His Majesty Li Er prepared for himself is in Jiuyi Mountain.Over time, some people stopped saying the name of Jiuyi Mountain and called it Zhaoling directly!

On top of his mausoleum, build a palace.This idea is too weird, needless to say, this is the idea of ​​the god monk Luo Er Sa Po!According to Guo Ye's insider, when the divine monk Luoer Suopo gave advice to His Majesty Li Er, the reason he used was that the beautiful scenery of Jiuyi Mountain, the tiger perched on the dragon's plate, and the harmony of yin and yang are more suitable for practicing the art of harvesting and nourishing!

If these beauties are really sent to Jiuyi Mountain, I dare not say anything else, at least the Great Monk Luoer Sapo will feast on them!

Guo Ye did not dare to resist the decree, so he could only ask Empress Changsun for help.Empress Changsun told His Majesty Li Er that the weather is cold now, especially in the palace of Jiuyi Mountain. The three hundred beauties may be damaged when they are sent to Jiuyi Mountain. It is better to wait for the weather to warm up before making plans.

His Majesty Li Er did not have the slightest doubt about Empress Changsun. This wife has always been a virtuous and virtuous wife, neither contending nor jealous, so she agreed to this request.Anyway, he was preparing to go to Jiuyi Mountain to escape the summer heat and enjoy these beauties by the way, so he was not in a hurry.

Next, Guo Ye's plan to deal with Luo Er Sa Po began to be carried out in full swing!

First, he invited two outsiders over.One is Master Zuo Huguo of the Tang Dynasty, Li Chunfeng, Guo Ye's cheap nephew.The other is the Great Monk Xuanzang!

Although Li Chunfeng and Xuan Zanghe are both monks and gentlemen, their relationship is really not very good.After the two people greeted Guo Ye, they both looked at Guo Ye, but turned a blind eye to each other!

Guo Ye coughed and said: "I invite you two to come today. I have something to do. Please help me!"

Li Chunfeng said with a bitter face: "Uncle, do you still need my help? You have already been made the Duke of Qin, so there is still something that can be difficult for you in the Tang Dynasty? Besides, you may not know the situation of the nephew, Now I am a Zuo Huguo Dharma Master, and it’s useless to be a Dharma Master, and the power to manage the monkhood is now in the hands of the divine monk Luoer Sapo, and I’m useless to talk!"

Guo Ye said: "It's because your words don't work that you're going to do my uncle this favor!"

"What on earth do you want to do?"

"Up to now, I will not hide it from you. The monk Luoer Sapo used the Elixir of Immortality as a bait to confuse His Majesty and make His Majesty obey him! Now he is even persuading His Majesty to accept beauties and practice the art of harvesting mends! What kind of righteous monk is this? He is clearly an obscene monk! If this person is not eliminated, we will never have peace in the Tang Dynasty! I want you to help me deal with Luo Er Sapo! Luo Er Sapo has fallen, you left protector , won’t you be able to gain prestige again?”

Before Li Chunfeng could speak, the great monk Xuanzang couldn't bear it anymore, and said, "Brother Guo, you mean to ask the poor monk to help you deal with the god monk Luoer Sapo?"

"Exactly!"

"I'm sorry, the poor monk can't help me with this favor!"

Chapter 1473: Changing Monk's Plan to Save Buddhism!

The Great Monk Xuanzang said this firmly, Guo Ye couldn't help being taken aback when he heard it, and said: "Grand Monk, we have a good relationship, don't you want to help me?"

"Amitabha, Brother Guo, we have a friendship, but the poor monk dare not use selfishness to compromise righteousness!"

"Great righteousness? What kind of righteousness is it for Emperor Nima to take elixir? What kind of righteousness is it for Nima Luoer Sapo to teach the emperor the art of harvesting tonics? Monk Xuanzang, you are reading the scriptures and reading stupidly!" Guo Ye said angrily !

Xuanzang said: "Of course ordinary monks don't mean that. Brother Guo, please be calm and don't be impatient, and listen to the poor monk's detailed explanation!"

Guo Ye sneered and said: "Say it! I want to see how you can speak like a lotus flower today, how you can turn black into white, dead into life, and Luo Ersuopo from a treacherous villain to a gentleman!"

"Amitabha, of course Luo Ersuo Po is not a gentleman, and what he has done is not an exaggeration to be called a treacherous villain! But... For the poor monk, Luo Ersuo Po's character is not important! Because he In the imperial court, it represents the Buddhism! To protect him is to protect the Buddhism! To protect the Buddhism is the righteousness of the poor monk!"

"Can I understand that, great monk, you are protecting the religion but not the country?"

"This...brother Guo, you can think so." Xuanzang said without the slightest bit of shame on his face, "What grace does the Tang Dynasty have for my Buddhist school? Isn't the plan of the Central Plains Buddhist school to travel to Fusang not the handiwork of the Tang court? Without His Majesty's consent? Even you Qin Guogong, Guo Ye, played a big role in it, right? Could it be that the Tang court is only allowed to be unkind to my Buddhist sect, and my Buddhist sect is not allowed to be unrighteous to the Tang Dynasty?"

"This..." Guo Ye was at a loss for words.His Majesty Li Er's intention to wipe out all the Buddhist sects in the Central Plains is clearly revealed, even sophistry is useless, it can be said that his fault came first.You plan to wipe out people, so can you expect them to have any kindness for you?

It seems that this time the Great Monk Xuanzang suffered a severe blow, and his thinking has changed a lot. He is no longer the sunny little monk he was many years ago!

Although feelings don't make sense, Guo Ye is not discouraged. He has no feelings, so he can still talk about interests!What Monk Xuanzang really cares about is Buddhism in the Central Plains, not Luo Er Sa Po. As long as the two are separated, there is still a lot to do!

Guo Ye pondered for a while, then said: "The Great Monk's words are wrong. You help me deal with Luoer Sapo, which is really beneficial to Buddhism. On the contrary, you will bring disaster to Buddhism if you allow Luoer Sapo to confuse Your Majesty!"

"How do you say this?"

Guo Ye cleared his throat and said: "Although I don't read Buddhist scriptures, I do know some allusions to your Buddhism. There is a passage that says that in the Dharma-ending period, the demon king Bo Xun will send disciples and grandchildren to sneak into the temple. Put on a monk's cassock, pretend to be Become a child of the Buddha, but misinterpret the scriptures of Buddhism and violate the precepts of Buddhism. Now, what Luoer Saha is doing, do you think he is a real Buddha, or a disciple of the devil king?"

"This……"

"If your Buddhist sect is headed by this person, why don't you call it a Buddhist sect at all, and change it to a demon sect. The Buddhism is vast, and it is not the emperor of the Tang Dynasty who can truly wipe out the Buddhist sect, but the disciples and grandchildren of the demon king Bo Xun, but Luoer Saha! You Letting Luoer Suopo become bigger and become the leader of the Buddhist sect is the only way to put the Buddhist sect in a state of eternal doom!"

Xuanzang thought for a moment and said: "Unworthy monks are unavoidable. Luo Er Sapo may not be a fake Buddha, but a real devil! Besides, even if he is real, so what? I have hundreds of thousands of Buddhist monks, Luo Er Even if Saha is a real devil, how many people can he pollute? On the contrary, his status is very important. With him, our Buddhism will prosper...Weighing the pros and cons, the benefits of Luoer Saha are more than the disadvantages to my Buddhism!"

"Then you are thinking wrong. Now that His Majesty is obeying Luo Er Sa Po's words, you are not afraid that one day His Majesty will wake up? Or that one day His Majesty will die after taking Luo Er Sa Po's elixir? At that time, the Buddhist sect in the Central Plains will suffer from the unreasonable disaster." Even if you want to go east to Fusang, you may not be able to get it, maybe you will have to be uprooted by the new king! Your Buddhism relies on Luoer Saha, and you can really be called drinking poison to quench your thirst!"

Xuanzang chanted the Buddha's name and said: "Brother Guo's words are good, and the poor monk thinks so! But if there is no Luo Er Sa Po, our Central Plains Buddhist sect will be forced to relocate, so how can we talk about the future? Can linger on. As the saying goes, it is better to live than to die, so the poor monk still can't help you with this favor!"

This guy is really reckless!It seems that His Majesty Li Er has really bullied the Buddhism in the Central Plains, and they have no choice but to hold on to the life-saving straw of Luo Er Sapo!

How can this be done?

Guo Ye frowned, thought carefully, and said, "Great Monk, you are just worried about losing Luo Er Sao Po, and the Central Plains Buddhism has no one to rely on, and is uprooted by His Majesty! Then I will teach you a method to protect your Buddhism. A millennium of peace! I don’t know if this condition can make you give up Luo Er Sa Po?”

"Thousands of years of peace? Brother Guo, isn't your statement too big?"

"It's not big at all! Great monk, we have known each other for many years. When do you think I have spoken big to you?"

"That's not true, but... Forget it, let's talk about the solution first. The poor monk, listen to whether it's reliable or not!"

"This method is very simple. As long as the people in the world know that the Dharma is boundless, the Buddhism should not be insulted lightly. Then when His Majesty wants to deal with the Buddhism, you must think twice!"

Xuanzang was overwhelmed by Guo Ye, and said: "You said it lightly! But how can things be so simple? It is said that Buddhism is boundless, but the problem now... the Buddha's teachings are not manifested in the world! Reading scriptures, how can you know the greatness of my Buddhism?"

"Grand Monk, you really can't see Mount Tai! If you want the people to know the vastness of your Buddhism, your Buddhism has unique advantages!"

"What advantage?"

"It's those monks of yours!"

Talking about Bianwen is the means for many low-level monks to make a living!These monks say that they make a living by preaching Bianwen, but in fact it is not much different from begging. For the great monk Xuanzang, these Bianwen monks will not be able to stand on the stage.

He said: "Brother Guo, it is true that Bianwen monks preach Buddhism. But this has happened since ancient times, but the effect is not great... You said that you can keep my Buddhist sect safe for thousands of years, this..."

Xuanzang didn't continue to say what happened next, but the implication was obvious—you were just bragging!

Guo Ye said: "I said that I can keep your Buddhism safe for thousands of years, so of course I have my reasons!"

"Appreciate further details!"

Guo Ye didn't pick up his words, and changed the subject, "I heard that you wrote a book called "Da Tang Western Regions"?"
