Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

The Tang Dynasty advocated Buddhism and Taoism. Whether it was a high-ranking official or a commoner, he was treated with extra courtesy to Buddhist shrines, temples, monks and nuns.

Su Dingfang was so excited, Guo Ye naturally expressed his understanding.

However, he still raised his mouth and said: "The Buddha is not the Buddha of the Turkic people. Whether he blasphemes or not, it's none of the Buddha's business?"

After joking, he said to Su Dingfang seriously: "It seems that this matter is really a bit tricky. If thousands of monks are really hijacked by the Turkic people, they can't be solved by leading troops to attack the Great Buddha Temple. At that time, Jieli Khan jumped over the wall in a hurry, broke the pot and smashed it, doing things like killing fish and breaking nets. Then, the Great Buddha Temple designated blood to flow into rivers, and thousands of monks would inevitably..."

Su Dingfang put away his anxious look, and sighed deeply: "Yes..."

Zhao Jiuchou asked puzzledly: "Isn't it just more than a thousand monks? Compared with capturing Jieli Khan for such a great effort, what is there to choose?"

When this grandson talks, he competes with Dongchang Iron Face Dark Night, and he kind of regards human life as nothing.

Guo Ye waved his hand and said, "Jiu Chou, you don't understand this!"

Su Dingfang glanced at Zhao Jiuchou in surprise, and found that none of the people around Guo Xiaozi was a good person.

The lives of a thousand people can be discarded as soon as they are said to be discarded, but Zhao Jiuchou is still no better than Guo Xiaozi, and his knowledge is always a little superficial.

Without explaining too much in detail, he mentioned a little bit: "Your Majesty worships Buddhism and Taoism today, and Empress Changsun is a Buddhist believer. According to rumors, the empress will chant sutras three times in the morning, afternoon and evening for many years, praying for the country and the royal family. , very pious. Hehe, if the news of the murder of a thousand monks in the Great Buddha Temple spreads to Chang'an, even though the culprit is a Turkic dog, how can you and I get away with it?"

Now, Zhao Jiuchou completely understood why Guo Ye and the others hesitated.

Even if the Great Buddha Temple tragedy really happened, His Majesty Li Er did not blame Guo Ye, Su Dingfang, or even Eunuch Shun and Zhang Baoxiang, the governor of Lingzhou, even if it was because of Jieli Khan's contribution.

However, how can Empress Changsun, who is a Buddhist believer, turn a blind eye?You must know that the harm of pillow wind is absolutely no less than the impeachment of the imperial censor.

Afterwards, the three of them remained silent in the room, thinking hard about countermeasures, and fell silent.

After a long time, there is still no solution.

Su Dingfang knew that Guo Ye's crooked and evil tricks appeared endlessly on weekdays, so he asked, "Boy Guo, what can you do?"

Guo Ye spread his hands and shrugged habitually to express his helplessness.

Su Dingfang couldn't understand for a moment, but he sighed and said: "I'll go to Eunuch Shun and Inspector Zhang first, and report the situation of the Great Buddha Temple to them. Let them not act rashly, lest they startle the snake and force the Turkic people to jump over the wall in a hurry. .”

Guo Ye hummed, and said, "Let's go together. Zhao Jiuchou and I will go to the vicinity of the Great Buddha Temple first, and then explore, and think of other effective methods."

Afterwards, the two left the room hand in hand, went downstairs, and parted ways at the gate of the post house.

After Guo Ye and Zhao Jiuchou said goodbye to Su Dingfang, they walked slowly towards the Great Buddha Temple.

Walking on the road, Zhao Jiuchou suddenly said: "By the way, there is one more thing I forgot to mention. The Turkic soldiers we saw today pretending to be merchants came here to buy meat. You know, temples are vegetarians, and these Turkic people can't do without meat every day."

Guo Yewen raised his eyebrows suddenly, and suddenly realized: "I said, why are they so courageous? At this juncture, instead of preparing to go to Gaochang Kingdom or Tuyuhun, they ostentatiously ostentatiously. I dare say that they are tired of eating vegetarian food. Hehe, Jie Like Khan has these stupid subordinates, no wonder he was defeated in the northern battlefield."

Then he analyzed to himself: "Since they can control thousands of monks, there are at least 2000 Turkic soldiers in the Great Buddha Temple. With such a huge consumption of meat, maybe they have to go out to buy it every day. Maybe this is an opportunity."

Hearing Guo Ye's guess that there were at least 2000 Turkic soldiers, Zhao Jiuchou couldn't help being speechless, and said contemptuously: "The governor of Lingzhou is really good enough. Two thousand Turkic people, with a Turkic Khan, sneaked into Lingzhou. He didn’t even realize it. Hehe, Mr. Inspector, Mr. Inspector, you really are a shit-eating lord!”

Guo Ye heard that Zhao Jiuchou's complaints were so vicious that he couldn't help laughing secretly.

Then he laughed and scolded: "Okay, if you do mental calculations but don't care, how can Inspector Zhang manage such a huge county of Lingzhou, how can he do everything? Let's go, take me to the vicinity of the Great Buddha Temple to have a look before we talk about it."

Zhao Jiuchou groaned, kept silent, quickened his pace and led the way, heading towards the Great Buddha Temple.

Lingzhou is not Yizhou, nor is it the city of Tuva in Xichuan.

The Great Buddha Temple is located in the western suburbs of Lingzhou County, more than half a city away from the posthouse where Guo Ye and others lived.

Such a long distance is a labor-intensive task.

After walking about a few streets, it was almost dusk, and it seemed that they were about to reach the west gate of Lingzhou.

Suddenly, Zhao Jiuchou, who was leading the way, stopped, pointed to a pavilion on the street ahead, and said, "My lord, look!"

Guo Ye stopped when he heard the words, and looked in the direction Zhao Jiuchou pointed. After seeing it, he was a little displeased, and said angrily, "Grandma, I think you are crazy? A brothel, what's all the fuss about? ..."

"No." Zhao Jiuchou continued to point to the brothel and said, "I mean, look at the door of the brothel, the person at the door is actually a little monk?"

Uh?

When Guo Ye heard this, there was a young monk standing at the door of the brothel?This is definitely an unconventional thing.

Immediately came the spirit.

I saw that the little monk was wearing a gray monk's uniform, his head was shaved and shiny, looking at his tall and straight back, he was still a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old.

Could it be that the little monk, Sichun, wants to go to a brothel?

But after looking carefully, he still found something even stranger than the little monk standing at the door of the brothel.

The little monk rolled up his sleeves, with a chicken in his left hand and a duck in his right, one on each side.

Guo Ye was speechless. In broad daylight, it would be strange for a monk to stand in front of a brothel. Now this monk is still unscrupulous, holding live chickens and ducks in both hands. Could it be that besides not quitting sex, he also doesn’t give up blood?

But this idea flashed by, and Guo Ye soon realized something was wrong.

The little monk with a chicken in his left hand and a duck in his right didn't enter the brothel openly, but hesitated at the door, wanting to enter but not daring to enter.

Going forward back and forth, backing back, but not going in, that is called a tangled torture!

Guo Ye was so curious that he walked towards this strange little monk alone.

Chapter 297

Perhaps because he noticed that someone was coming towards him, the monk at the door of the brothel suddenly turned around and looked at Guo Ye with a straight face.

It didn't matter if he showed his face, but he was stunned by Guo Ye!

Grandma, this monk is really handsome. If Zhao Jiuchou is a handsome man in Guo Ye's eyes, then comparing with this monk, it is a black-haired crow and a lark, which is not at the same level at all.

After the little monk blasted Zhao Jiuchou, Zhao Jiuchou was a scum in front of him.

Judging by the standards of handsome men in later generations, Zhao Jiuchou was at best a pillar in a small county theater, while the young monk in front of him was definitely a pretty boy.

So handsome and so handsome!

This was Guo Ye's first impression of the little monk in front of him.

Being stared at so intently by Guo Ye, the little monk's fair cheeks flushed red, and he lowered his head guiltyly, and murmured: "Sin, sin, Amitabha!"

It's like a child who has done something wrong, shy and timid in front of adults and dare not raise his head.

Guo Ye thought it was funny, and joked: "Little monk, you have meat on your hands, and you are wandering around the door of the brothel. You have violated the ten precepts of novice monks, including the precepts of killing and lust. Be careful that the Buddha blames you!"

"Yeah~~"
