Chapter 311

Changan.

Jinchengfang Huichang Temple, built in the first year of Wude;

Chongyi Temple in Changshoufang, in the third year of Wude, Princess Guiyang (Princess Changguangchang) was established by her late husband Zhao Cijing;
Chuguo Temple in Jinchangfang, established by Li Zhiyun, king of Chu;
Xingsheng Temple in Tongyifang, formerly the former residence of Emperor Gaozu Qianlong, was established as a nunnery in the first year of Zhenguan;
Bingguang Temple, the government office, was established by the abolished prince Li Chengqian in the fifth year of Zhenguan;
Xiudefang Hongfu Temple, formerly Wang Junkuo’s house, was established by Li Shimin in the eighth year of Zhenguan for his mother Empress Dou, and was renamed Xingfu Temple in the first year of Shenlong;
Yankangfang Ximing Temple, the former residence of Li Tai, king of Wei;
Jidu Temple in Anyefang, the place where Xiao Yu's three daughters became monks;
Daxingshan Temple in Jingshanfang, former Chaoguo Temple.

There are more than [-] monks in the big temple, more than [-] monks in the small temple, and there are more than [-] monks in the entire city of Chang'an.

Each monk's field is [-] mu, and the nun's land is [-] mu.

In this way, more than [-] hectares of land were out of the control of the imperial court, and rents and adjustments could not be levied, and the taxes that should be borne were shared by the rest of the people.

The more privileged people, the more Guishou should share, until it couldn't bear it and collapsed.

The Ancestral Hall Division has a certain degree of control over the temples, but it can't stand the establishment of temples one after another by the dignitaries. The number of monks is increasing day by day, and there is a faint danger of losing control.

Fortunately, Wo Yan got three tricks from Fan Zheng.

Books are made every three years, except for novice monks, those who cannot recite the three Buddhist scriptures are not allowed to issue certificates;
Clean up disciple monks;
Now, with the excuse of purging the Japanese monks, they have checked each temple one by one, and the number of monks and nuns in the three temples has been reduced.

Xiao Yu, governor of Shangzhou in the Duke's mansion of the Song Dynasty, was very dissatisfied with the court's expulsion of Japanese monks and taking the opportunity to restrict temples.

"Great Tang Dynasty, rectifying the majestic style, how can Japanese monks see it with just a few glances? Small family spirit will damage the prestige of the Tang Dynasty."

Xiao Yu's eldest son, Taichang Shaoqing, and Princess Xiangcheng's son-in-law, Captain Xiao Rui, stroked their foreheads helplessly.

My own Aye has such a bad temper, he can scold at a stone for a long time.

You just look at the three sisters of Jidu Temple, Fayuan, Fale, and Fadeng. Who came to the door and called you Aye?
That is to say, Princess Xiangcheng has a good temper, so she can resist not living apart, otherwise you are really betrayed.

You can't manage your own family affairs well, but you are very enthusiastic about Buddhism, how free you are!
Look at the shiny bald heads in this main room. If you want to change it, you don't need to light candles at night!

Although he knew Xiao Yu's bad temper, Xiao Rui could only bite the bullet and persuade him: "Aye, the imperial court's statement is to spy on the military situation, and we can't comment on it."

Xiao Yu was furious, the chopping board rattled with the palm of his hand, and the teacup trembled: "The Great Tang is not a Great Tang with every family name, it is a Great Tang built by the monarch and his ministers, why can't I comment on it!"

Hai Guang, the master of Chongyi Temple, recited the Buddha's mantra: "Amitabha, lay Buddhists, please don't show signs. Xiao Rui Tanyue also has good intentions."

These words seemed to add fuel to the fire, Xiao Yu pointed at Xiao Rui and yelled: "The old man is not dead yet, it's not your turn to make decisions in the family! Get lost!"

Xiao Rui's good temper couldn't help but make his blood boil: "Yes! You are Aye, you are Song Guogong, you are amazing, you can ignore the life and death of your children, and you have the heart to send my sister to become a monk when she is three years old. You treat her as a human being. ?"

"In court all day, relying on the old to sell the old, pointing at everyone is a curse, regardless of whether your children will wear small shoes in the future!"

"If you really believe in Buddhism so much, why did you shrink back when the Holy Majesty allowed you to become a monk? Ah? Do you know that Erlang and I have listened to so much ridicule from you in court, but we have no ability to retaliate?"

"I've been dismissed five times. You still don't know how to live or die. You have to talk too much about the military situation. Do you want the Xiao family to be a successor? Are you an official of the Tang Dynasty or the Japanese country!"

Xiao Rui's words pierced Xiao Yu's heart one by one.

Da Lang knew all about his own bad things, he exposed his family ugliness to the outside world, and he didn't spare any sympathy.

Xiao Yu, who was burning with anger, stretched out his hand to grab the tea bowl beside him, and threw it at Xiao Rui.

Originally, Xiao Rui could avoid the teacup as long as he dodged a little, but he stood up straight, his body was motionless, the teacup hit his forehead, broke into several pieces, and fell to pieces again.

On the forehead, a stream of blood ran down the brow bone, moistened the corners of the eyes, wet the bridge of the nose, turned red lips and teeth, dripped and splashed on the bluestone board along the beard, looking particularly ferocious.

"Aye, you've done a good job, keep going. If you beat me to death, you won't be dragged to Dongshikou for a while, keep going."

Xiao Rui didn't even wipe it off, his voice was terrifyingly calm.

"They're all dead! Come quickly, and give the Eldest Young Master some medicine!"

The butler's voice trembled.

Commonly used medicines, including wound medicine, are usually prepared in every prefecture.

Xiao Rui shouted in a low voice: "Get out of here! Today, Xiao Rui will be killed by Song Guogong!"

Wu Kun, the master of Daxingshan Temple, glared at Hai Guang, and said in a low voice: "Amitabha! Lay Buddhists cultivate their minds first and foremost, and reckless incitement of nameless fires is caused by demons in their hearts. According to the poor monk, father and son should love each other, Fang will not waste the fate of the previous life."

"It's a sin to realize Kunun's up to this point, causing the father and son of laymen to be at odds! The poor monk should go back to the temple, repent in front of the Buddha, and recite the "Maha Prajna Paramita Heart Sutra" a thousand times to eliminate karma."

Wu Kun has withdrawn, can the other temple masters sit still?
Even Hai Guang, who fanned the ghostly wind and lighted the will-o'-the-wisp, bid farewell cautiously.

A young minister and son-in-law, if you are really in danger of your life, you can see if Buddhism is an extrajudicial place.

Outside Song Guogong's mansion, under the leadership of Wu Kun, the temple masters had a cordial exchange with Hai Guang, the master of Chongyi Temple, including but not limited to golden bell jar, one-finger Zen, two-finger Zen, iron head skill, iron arm skill , Iron Leg Kung Fu, Overlord Elbow.

Marquis Wu who was passing by asked, and Baoxiang Wu Kun responded solemnly: "Amitabha, Tanyue doesn't know something. This is a Buddhist ritual to get rid of the demons in the heart."

Marquis Wu let out an oh, turned around and left.

You have the final say when your head shines.

Xiao Yu glared at Xiao Rui, but he turned a blind eye to the pool of blood on the ground.

If Song Guogong cared about his children, he wouldn't send his three-year-old sister to become a monk.

In his eyes, the sky is big and the earth is big, and his temper is the biggest.

Princess Xiangcheng came from the backyard and wanted to bandage Xiao Rui's wound, but Xiao Rui refused.

"Today's matter, no matter what, you have to tell right from wrong, otherwise, you will remarry sooner or later at Dongshikou."

This is really not nonsense, didn't Wang Jingzhi go to Lingnan because of the palace abolishment? Princess Nanping divorced and remarried Liu Xuanyi, which was quick.

No way, who told Datang to encourage remarriage and not advocate keeping chastity?

Xiao Yu stared angrily for a long time, then got up: "The old man is going back to Shangzhou now. I will never go back to this mansion."

After all, I still dare not make a fuss!
You Xiao Yu really don't know what to do, don't you really know that the Japanese monk is spying on the military situation?
It's just relying on the old to sell the old, and spraying wantonly to show that I am independent, everyone is drunk and I am alone!
It's really unscrupulous, why didn't the emperor dare to roar when he demoted him?
