At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 236 The magical effect of Mongolian sweat medicine
Had a dream last night.

His Majesty said the same thing three days ago.

Then more than seven hundred of them all shaved their heads and became monks.

But with Yun Dingxing leading the charge, in the face of prosperity and wealth, they all chose to compromise.

Isn't that just becoming a monk?

Become monks, they also hold the power in Luoyang City.

The same is the princes of the court!

But today, their ominous premonition is very strong!
"In my dream last night, I dreamed of gods and Buddhas all over the sky, and they told me..."

Wang Shichong was still on the high platform, and continued to tell in a deep voice: "The seven hundred or so monks can only solve the disaster of a county in Henan. They want to save the world and end the troubled times..."

"I must shave myself!"

As soon as this remark came out, all the officials were frightened!

They're just shaved.

just now……

Even His Majesty wants to be shaved?
Isn't this following the old example of Liang Wudi Xiao Yanzhi?

When he got here, the officials couldn't bear it anymore, especially Yun Dingxing. In order to show his loyalty, he knelt down and prostrated himself on the ground, crying, holding Wang Shichong's thigh and begging: "Your Majesty's daughter, The whole world depends on His Majesty, so you must not become a monk easily! Just leave things like shaving to the ministers!"

"It's really not possible. Millions of people in Luoyang can become monks!"

People watching around: "..."

Especially the people closest to the high platform, who heard it most clearly, gritted their teeth with hatred for Yun Dingxing.

Xu Mu and Fang Xuanling were not far from the high platform, and they also heard Yun Dingxing's words.

The corner of Fang Xuanling's mouth twitched, and he said contemptuously, "You flatterer! Shameless!"

Xu Mu smiled helplessly: "Yun Dingxing is such a person. Ever since he followed Yang Yong, his entire family has been betrayed by him, exiled, exiled, cut in half, and he is the only one who has been successful so far."

And this time he popularized Buddhism, he made a good start for the ministers.

In the original history, Yun Dingxing was really a man of the hour.

Followed Yang Yong, Yang Guang, Wang Shichong, Li Shimin...

Finally, during the Zhenguan period, he was made a duke.

Future generations enjoy a lot of blessings.

It's just that in terms of integrity, Yun Dingxing has fallen all over the place.

Fang Xuanling was even more disdainful when he heard Xu Mu's words: "In Wanmin City, such flatterers are absolutely not allowed to exist!"

Xu Mu nodded slightly.

Naturally, he would not keep such a black sheep.

In the past, he could have a good death by relying on both sides, but now...

His best destination is to live alone in the company of the ancient Buddha with green lanterns in the White Horse Temple.

……

on the high platform.

Yun Dingxing, who was wearing a monk's uniform, burst into tears, but unfortunately, he couldn't change Wang Shichong's decision.

"For the sake of the people of the world, I have made up my mind and cannot change it! Master Yuandao, come and shave me for me!"

Wang Shichong waved his hand to signal Yun Dingxing to back down, and then looked at Master Yuandao who was grinning from ear to ear.

Although he knew that he shouldn't laugh on such a grand occasion, but he just couldn't help it...

Thinking that the White Horse Temple is about to create history, there is no one before and no one to come, he feels that even if he dies now, he is worthy of the abbots of the past and the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas worshiped by the White Horse Temple.

"Your Majesty is a body of ten thousand gold. This time, the old monk accepted the disciple on behalf of the deceased master and bestowed the dharma name... Yuanji. I hope that junior Yuanji will diligently cultivate good fruits in the future, worship the Buddha, and end the troubled times as soon as possible."

The old monk Yuandao walked forward slowly, holding the razor.

Under the unbelievable eyes of all the people and officials, Wang Shichong began to be shaved.

And Wang Shichong also cooperated very much and consciously accepted the shaved degree.

Watching strands of hair fall to the ground, the common people fell silent.

The ministers were also silent.

In such a huge White Horse Temple, only the sound of wind and leaves can be heard...

Xu Mu and Fang Xuanling, who were insiders, were not only indifferent when they saw this scene, but also wanted to laugh.

Especially Xu Mu.

"Yuanzi generation...how did it become Yuanji?"

However, the word passing away was not officially translated from the "Dabaojijing" until the Tang Dynasty.

Take the meaning of Buddha's death.

It is still the end of the Sui Dynasty, so there is no such thing as passing away.

Took half an hour.

A brand new bald monk appeared in the eyes of the world.

The ministers wept again and again.

They are all calling Wang Shichong's holiness.

This is the best time to show loyalty.

Among them, Yun Dingxing cried the loudest.

Fang Xuanling was even more contemptuous of this, with a face full of disdain.

"Your Majesty's sage and benevolence has never been seen in ancient and modern times. It is really a blessing for the common people and a blessing for the ministers to pray for the blessings of the people!"

More than seven hundred officials stood on the high platform and saluted Wang Shichong.

At this time, Wang Shichong...that is, Qian Mian, only felt the top of his head was icy cold, and the cold wind was blowing.

Taking a deep breath, he looked at the officials.

He has finished his shaving, and next, he needs the ministers to hand over power.

"The old monk is called Yuanji, and has escaped into Buddhism, and is no longer your majesty."

Wang Shichong clasped his hands together, put on the cassock, and held a Zen stick in his hand, and said lightly.

The officials were dumbfounded now.

Wang Shiyun couldn't help standing up and said, "Your Majesty—"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wang Shichong: "Please also ask the benefactor to address the old monk by his dharma name."

Wang Shiyun had a strange expression on his face, looking at the bald majesty in front of him, he could only say: "Master Yuanji, the country must not be left alone for a day! It is important for the government to rectify it!"

Seeing this, Wang Shichong asked with a smile: "The old monk has stopped asking about the affairs of the court for more than a few months, but the world is stable as before. It can be seen that the world... Whether you want the old monk or not, it is the same."

Wang Shiyun recalled these few months...

Suddenly I didn't know how to answer the call.

When the officials were stunned, Wang Shichong continued: "On the contrary, since the old man practiced Buddhism diligently, the Henan County has won consecutive victories. Li Shimin's troops lost troops and generals, and lost the city and land."

"It shows that the effect of the old man's practice of Buddhism is great! That's why the old man guides you, join the Buddhist school, and practice the Buddha's law diligently!"

As he spoke, Wang Shichong said in a compassionate tone: "Nowadays Henan County is as stable as Mount Tai, and we should make persistent efforts to enter the White Horse Temple together and practice Buddhism...for the sake of the common people in the world, and end the troubled times as soon as possible!"

The officials were stunned by him.

But after studying Buddhist scriptures for several months, they have been more or less brainwashed by Buddhist scriptures.

Many people even think that what His Majesty said makes sense.

Unexpectedly, he also shamelessly attributed the contribution of Henan County's Ding Ding to himself.

"In the dream last night, the Buddha and the Bodhisattva told the old monk that if he sacrificed himself to enter the Buddhist gate, the world would be unified. Today, the old monk gave up his wealth and wealth and would rather enter the Buddhist gate. He vowed to practice the Dharma diligently every day. If the world is restless, he will never leave the White Horse Temple! "

"Everyone, are you willing to work with me to contribute to ending the troubled times?"

What Wang Shichong said was impassioned, and the original monks of the White Horse Temple were even more infected by his courage. They folded their palms together and shouted: "Master Yuanji's Buddhism is profound, and he can save the world. Joining the White Horse Temple is really a blessing for my Buddhist sect. The luck of the people!"

Master Yuandao also clasped his palms together, and said with emotion: "Junior Brother Yuanji, with compassion in his heart, led all his officials to convert to Buddhism and save all sentient beings. The merits and virtues gained from this Water and Land Ceremony must be inconceivable, immeasurably superior, and must be enough to end the troubled times!"

"I also invite all of you to follow your Majesty into my Buddhist gate, pray for the common people in the world, reap the immeasurable merits of this water and land ceremony, and help the common people!" Master Yuandao, who had been instructed by Wang Shichong in advance, began to help build momentum.

At this moment, the disciples at the White Horse Temple began to recite Buddhist scriptures.

The ministers suddenly...

Caught in a dilemma.

This time, it was completely different from three days ago.

Three days ago, just shaved.

But this time, let them hand over power.

After all, His Majesty doesn't even want Jiangshan anymore.

Their rights are really nothing.

After being brainwashed by Buddhism, many people with weak minds began to think.

Among the 700 people, there are actually 200 people...

Start clasping your palms together.

Bow to Wang Shichong.

"The poor monk Xuanku has met Master Yuanji."

"The poor monk Xuan Liang has met Master Yuanji."

"Poor monk..."

……

But the most important thing is the group of people who have mastered the military power.

The crowd headed by Wang Shiyun and Yun Dingxing.

They looked at each other.

This time, it was because of his own power that was shaken.

Even Yun Dingxing did not flatter him unconditionally.

What he pursued all his life was power.

They are all tangled and hesitant, whether to rebel or not.

After all, they have been forced to this extent, even if it is the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu, they can show you back.

Seeing that Wang Shichong didn't want the throne anymore, Wang Shiyun even came up with the idea of ​​sitting on the throne himself.

"Mobilize troops and besiege the White Horse Temple!"

This idea just appeared in Wang Shiyun's mind, and then he felt that everything in front of him became blurred.

Not just him, Yun Dingxing, all the generals, all the ministers...

They all fainted in a daze.

Seeing this, Master Yuandao clasped his palms together and said to the onlookers: "My courtiers saw that Your Majesty is righteous, benevolent and virtuous, and that the world will be peaceful within a short time. Weeping with joy, he fainted."

"Come here, carry them all into the wing room in the temple!"

In this way, more than seven hundred ministers were all lifted off the high platform.

He also announced to the entire Luoyang City that this water and land ceremony ended when Wang Shichong escaped into Buddhism, and the officials were deeply touched, and they converted to Buddhism one after another.

"This time, under the leadership of Junior Brother Yuanji, I have gained countless merits and virtues, and the peace of the world is just around the corner!"

Finally, Master Yuandao announced a good news to the people in Luoyang City and the believers of incense.

And Fang Xuanling...

Then he looked bewildered.

After it was over, he looked at Xu Mu full of doubts, "It's over like this? The subordinates thought that Wang Shiyun and others were going to lead their troops to rebel! Why are they all dizzy?"

You know, Wang Shiyun and others have a total of 15 soldiers!

If one is not handled well, the Luoyang Mutiny is very likely to happen.

Xu Mu smiled faintly upon hearing this.

In the fasting meal at noon, he ordered people to put Mongolian sweat medicine.

The ministers were all drugged out.

They will all be imprisoned in the White Horse Temple. In the next time, Sun Ying and Zhang Xutuo will take over the military and political power in Luoyang.

"Old Fang, you don't come out very often, and you don't know the magical effect of Mongolian sweat medicine. If you come here a few more times in the future, you will know..."

Xu Mu explained.

I have to say that people in this era are really simple.

Wang Shichong led the officials to believe in Buddhism. Although it was abnormal, there was a precedent of Xiao Yan, and the officials did not doubt it.
