Li Shimin's will: Li Zhi, the throne belongs to your brother

It seems that they don't know why?

Finally, he was brought before Li Shimin.

Li Chunfeng didn't speak yet.

He saw Li Shimin torture a mouse to death with pills in front of him.

After witnessing the toxicity of this elixir with his own eyes, Li Chunfeng's pupils shrank, and cold sweat slowly deepened.

At this moment, he understood why Li Shimin's temperament changed drastically and he sent all the Taoists to prison.

This elixir is poisonous! !

The most important thing is that all civil and military officials will take various elixirs, some for longevity, some for health, and some for joy...

It is difficult to estimate how many people were killed or disabled in the turmoil caused by the pill.

Li Shimin scolded for a long time...

At this moment, footsteps sounded, and the eunuch passed on came in to report to Li Shimin.

"My lord, His Royal Highness King Wei and Princess Jinyang are here."

"Pass~"

Li Mingda and Li Tai walked into the imperial study room, and immediately saw Li Chunfeng kneeling on the ground.

"I have seen my father!" Li Tai and Li Mingda hurriedly saluted.

"Excuse me." Li Shimin looked at the two with a slightly relaxed expression.

"Aye, Aye, don't be angry, okay?"

Li Mingda hurried over, held Li Shimin's hand and said coquettishly.

"Hmm~" Li Shimin responded, turned his gaze to Li Tai and said, "Could it be that the emperor is also here to persuade me?"

"Returning to my father, my son thought that just executing the alchemy person would not solve the problem."

Li Tai only felt the light on his back, and replied quickly.

Along the way, he had already seen the team of the Royal Forest Army escorting Taoist priests into the prison.

After listening, Li Shimin sneered and said indifferently.

"Oh? I'm afraid the emperor came a bit late. I have already ordered that all the Taoist priests in the palace be sent to prison. If they dare to resist, they will be killed on the spot."

Li Tai fell silent immediately, he was one step too late, the order had already been given.

This action is really fast~, but it is also expected.

That left only Li Chunfeng in front of him, and he was the representative of Taoism at this time.

In fact, there are many unexpected people who have been Taoists.

For example, Wei Zheng was a Taoist priest in his early years, Hua Tuo was also a Taoist master, and Zhang Liang was also a Taoist master.

Because of eclectic employment, Taoist priests and monks in the Tang Dynasty could be officials.

"Has the father ever calmed down?" Li Tai asked cautiously.

"There is no cure for this kind of poison. This is how to calm down. I can't wait to cut them into pieces!!"

Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said with a grim face.

Listening to Li Shimin's words, Li Tai felt that this was incomprehensible, and tried to persuade him.

"Father's matter has come to this point, and it will not help to drive them all out.

Father, don't let his anger break his body. "

Li Shimin took two deep breaths, suppressed his anger and said, "What does the emperor think I should do?"

Li Tai thought for a while, and said the solution he had thought of along the way.

"My son thinks that this matter is caused by ignorance.

Apart from the father, there are countless people who have taken the elixir and suffered greatly from it.

There are three ways for sons and ministers. One should prohibit Taoist priests from making alchemy.

Second, monks are also prohibited from begging and donating to temples.

Third, the medicine should be tested on rats, and the rats can be given to humans only if they are unharmed.

These three points were also written into the laws of the Tang Dynasty.

Violators will be distributed to Turks. "

After listening, Li Shimin frowned and began to think.

Taoist alchemy is actually the default of the upper class.

In addition to the emperor who likes to eat health-preserving pills, there are also many ministers, wealthy businessmen, and rich people who like to eat health-preserving pills.

This trend has been brought up from top to bottom. Those who have a lot of money have no place to spend, and all they need is life, so they change the method of health preservation.

The Taoist alchemy is not only for immortality, but also for alchemy and money.

The pill furnace needs money, the medicinal materials need money, and the food and drink costs, all of which are money, and these are all sold in exchange for pills.

Once alchemy is not allowed, the income from unspoken rules will be gone.

I am afraid that few people can bear the long-term hard life.

People who really have this kind of perseverance can have a place in whatever they do.

Therefore, most of the lower-level Taoist priests can only go to cheat and abduct, and once they are discovered, they will be imprisoned.

The number of Taoist priests will decrease dramatically.

The monks are similar, saying they are begging and donating, but most of the time it is the habit of gangsters who are hard to change, forcing them to seize the property of the people.

Once begging and donations are not allowed, and begging and donations are directly classified as illegal, the nature will change.

In addition, many monks are not law-abiding people, and they don't know how to farm honestly. It is better to be a bandit than to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddha.

In this way, they will also embark on the road of deceit and abduction, and they will also suffer from prison.

Letting their behavior change from reasonable to illegal and criminal can effectively curb the expansion of the two sects from the source.

At the same time, it is not a complete eradication, leaving a way to survive, and will not completely force them back.

At the same time, the existence of poison can be distinguished by tasting medicine with rats, which has brought certain progress to medicine.

The distribution of Turks may also poison many people to death, making an indirect contribution.

Li Shimin nodded and agreed: "This method is very good."

After finishing speaking, he turned to Li Chunfeng and said, "Did you hear that?"

"I listen carefully." Li Chunfeng knelt and did not dare to raise his head, only sweat fell on the blue bricks.

Chapter 27

Chapter 27 May Have the Elixir of Immortality

"Retire, I'm tired." Li Shimin sighed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Chunfeng staggered out of the imperial study with his head lowered.

Li Shimin's face was complicated, and he said to Li Mingda:

"Si, go outside first, I will have a word with Qingque."

"Jinyang resigns." Li Mingda left sensiblely.

At this time, only Li Tai and Li Shimin were left in the imperial study.

With his hands behind his back, Li Shimin stared at the sun hanging high outside the window, and said.

"Everything has rise and fall, this is the cycle of heaven."

As soon as Li Tai heard this, he knew what Li Shimin wanted to ask.

Sure enough, Li Shimin asked, "My lord, is there any magic medicine for immortality in this world?"

Li Shimin asked this question.

Li Tai knew that he would have to face this sooner or later.

This is absolutely not the case, even in modern times, but it is worth mentioning that it took eight years to study the mystery of aging.

But, how should we go about fooling around?

Li Tai lowered his head and replied: "Going back to Emperor Father, I thought there should be none."

"Why?"

"My son doesn't know.

But my son thought, if everyone can live forever and babies are born continuously, wouldn't there be only people left in this world? "

Li Tai could clearly feel that Li Shimin's gaze stayed on his face, and he didn't dare to think too much, so he could only answer truthfully.

"What about the gods in the scientific world?" The answer was as he expected.

Li Tai thought about it and explained.

"My son thinks that gods are also human beings, and they just do things that ordinary people can't do.

These things have an incomparable contribution to the people.

Their deeds were passed on by word of mouth among the common people, and their appearance has already changed since then.

And those people are called gods by the people. "

"I seem to understand." Li Shimin frowned, thinking about the answer.

What does it mean?

Doing things that are difficult for ordinary people to pass on to become a god?

Isn't this an obvious contradiction?

After all, Li Tai is really unusual.

Li Shimin frowned sometimes, stretched it out sometimes, and began to make up his mind on his own.

He firmly believed that Li Tai was an immortal.

The reason why I didn't tell myself is probably because I have forgotten it, or I can't say it.

It must be so, yes.

Li Shimin felt that he had guessed the truth.

The reason why Li Tai answered this way was mainly because he wanted to break this superstition and replace gods with great men.

From the perspective of modern people, as long as they have a little understanding, they will know that the so-called sects all have the same routine.

Make a beautiful promise that cannot be verified, such as afterlife, heaven, reincarnation and the like.

Then around this promise, we make up various stories, and then practice continuously... for self-comfort, self-brain supplementation and spiritual brainwashing.

There is nothing wrong with substituting man in the form of a great man and pulling God down from the altar.

But Li Tai underestimated the firmness of the three views of the ancients.

The three views of people are very firm and difficult to change.

For example, the readers of this book should be mostly male readers.

Then men like the opposite sex in their bones, which is a normal three views.

If you want to change this three views, readers can try male on top of male, and you will know how difficult it is to change the three views.

Li Tai walked out while thinking wildly.

"Brother Huang, did Emperor Father teach you a lesson?" Li Mingda approached and asked.

"No, Si son to accompany father?"

"Well~ Brother Huang, let's stay and have lunch together!"

Li Tai didn't want to have dinner with Li Shimin at first.
