Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 55 Kumarajiva
After returning to sleep, Liu Yizhen sleepily opened the file that Wang Xiu handed him.

Looking at it, Liu Yizhen's brows gradually tightened.

By the time he saw the end, Liu Yizhen's hands were already trembling a little.

At this moment, a servant from the mansion came to report that it was Du Ji, the chief bookkeeper, asking to see him.

"It's just in time."

When Du Ji entered Liu Yizhen's mansion, he wanted to be courteous, but Liu Yizhen directly threw the file in his hand to Du Ji.

"Hu Xia's crisis has been resolved, but the crisis in Guanzhong still exists! Master Du, please take a good look at this file."

After Du Ji took the file and looked at it, his face was also sullen.

"Duke Guiyang, these villains are too domineering!"

The things in the dossier are neither big nor small.

If it is impossible for Wang Xiu to hand over this matter to Liu Yizhen when he grows up, that would be irresponsible to the people in Guanzhong.If he was young, this matter would not be able to get in front of Wang Xiu.

The cause of the matter is not so complicated.

Because now it is time for spring plowing, and because Guanzhong has just been pacified, a large amount of land has been allocated to some landless tenants and farmers.

However, although some people were allotted fields, when they arrived at the fields, they found that someone had already fenced the land there and did not allow them to cultivate it.

This can annoy these people.

After all, in this era, the field is the foundation of one's life.Since it is a field allocated by the government, there is no reason why they should not be allowed to cultivate it.

In the end, people from both sides started to quarrel, and the quarrel gradually turned into a fight with weapons, causing several civilian casualties. This was reported to Wang Xiu by the local officials.

Things are simple, but the people involved are not.

Because of conflicts with the common people, it was not ordinary people who fenced off the fields, but monks.

Liu Yizhen touched his forehead with some headaches.

Buddhism
This thing has been half-dead since it entered China from the Western Han Dynasty. It has been like this for hundreds of years before Buddhism ushered in the opportunity to rise.

That is the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms at the end of Han Dynasty.

Because of the darkness of reality, people can only find spiritual comfort.

Originally, the Taoists had a chance to eat this big cake, but Zhang Jiao and the others created a drama of "the sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand".This made Taoism quite unpopular with the rulers, so it gave Buddhism a chance to take advantage of it.

Monks from Tianzhu, Anxi, and Kangju, such as Tankejialuo, Tandi, and Kangsengkai, came to Luoyang, the capital of the Wei Dynasty, to engage in scripture translation; Zhiqian, Senghui, etc. went to Jianye, the capital of the Eastern Wu Dynasty, to promote Buddhism.In particular, Zhi Qian won the courtesy of Sun Quan, worshiped him as a doctor, and built temples and pagodas for the Kang Senghui.

Perhaps it was because the rulers did not understand the essence of Buddhism, or because of satisfying their own selfishness in ruling, Buddhism finally began to take root.

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Buddhism grew even more barbarously.

The 480 temples in the Southern Dynasties are not boasting. If you think about Emperor Wudi of Liang’s extraordinary monk several times, you will know the influence of Buddhism.

In addition, Buddhism has not yet shown signs of combining with localized things in China at this time. It is more involved with metaphysics, fooling the gang of family nerds at the top, and fooling the people with "reincarnation" and "afterlife" at the bottom. Therefore, it is deeply loved by the rulers.

If it was just "ignoring the people", then the harm of Buddhism would not be so serious, and it would not have allowed Tuoba Tao, Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, to carry out activities to destroy Buddhism.

Do you think those monks are lucky if they eat fat and round-headed ones one by one?
fart!

Fooling people and making money, Liu Yizhen can actually bear these things, but what he can't bear is that he cannibalize people!

Because monks don't have to work, don't have to pay taxes, and a lot of money from the rich flows into the temples, so that the country can't collect taxes at all.After a large number of people hid in temples to practice, the country had no military resources during wars.

What's even worse is that a large number of people became monks and directly led to a decline in the birth rate.

In ancient farming civilization, what does it mean for a country or a nation to have a declining population?
It means the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species!

This is definitely not alarmist.

Three martial arts and one case, do you really think they are full and have nothing to do?Just looking at fat bald donkeys is not pleasing to the eye?
If it is not them, then their country and people will die.

For this kind of fooling people and consuming money, Liu Yi really has no interest in believing in it.

Now that there is still Buddhism in Guanzhong doing things under his nose, Liu Yizhen's anger can be imagined.

"Take my soldier talisman and send two thousand soldiers over here!"

Not wanting to play with words at all, Liu Yizhen intends to directly eliminate the other party physically.

When Du Ji saw Liu Yizhen mobilizing the army directly, he knew that Liu Yizhen was angry and dared not speak any more.

Soon, a large army set out from the Chang'an barracks, which attracted the attention of many people.

The leading general is Pei Fangming who was borrowed from Pu Ban.

Because he had no position in Guanzhong, when he heard that Liu Yizhen was dispatching troops, he rushed to join in the fun.

"What's the matter with Duke Guiyang? Why do you want to call soldiers and horses when there is no war?"

Pei Fangming and Liu Yizhen ran around Hu Xia, and became much closer to Liu Yizhen.Even if he saw that Liu Yi was really angry, he dared to come up and ask.

Naturally, Liu Yizhen would not vent his anger on others, but asked Pei Fangming: "Do you believe in Buddhism in the Pei clan of Hedong?"

Pei Fangming thought about it.

"There are indeed some members of the clan who study Buddhist scriptures and classics in their free time, but it is impossible to say that they believe in Buddhism. Otherwise, the elders of the clan will kill him."

Liu Yizhen nodded.

Also.

Hedong has always been a battleground for military strategists, and the aristocratic families here are not as carefree as those nerds in the south, but full of sense of crisis.

Otherwise, it is impossible for Pei Fangming to be a military general at such a young age. You must know that the aristocratic families in the south have always gone for the "noble" official position, and the opponent's position with real power is not very concerned. Otherwise, Liu Yu would not be so easy to create a "poor man" Handheld needs" this situation.

"Be born in sorrow and die in peace."

It would be great if the southern family was as full of crisis awareness as the Hedong Pei family.

Seeing that Pei Fangming's butt was not on the side of Buddhism, Liu Yizhen told Pei Fangming the whole story.

Pei Fangming frowned after hearing this.

"Guiyang Gong, the other party is so arrogant, does it have something to do with the temple where Kumarajiva is?"

Kumarajiva?

Liu Yizhen didn't have much impression of the name at first, but Liu Yizhen's face changed when Du Ji, the native land snake in Guanzhong, reminded him.

He remembered who this was.
