Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 126
Everyone was surprised to see the dispute between Feng Daiwen and Li Gang, and before realizing it, Li Gang had already been carried out in a daze.The matter was thus passed without objection.

Feng Daiwen secretly rejoiced that he didn't die of anger, otherwise he would be in serious trouble.Before everyone came back to their senses and asked for trouble, he said with a stern face: "I repeat again, please choose a place to try everything according to the manpower, and when the manpower is sufficient and experienced, it will be promoted across the country to avoid confusion. "

"The reform is a matter of great importance. Don't push it forward rashly. You can't be greedy for success. If there is something wrong, discuss and correct it immediately. If not, don't blame me for not predicting." Li Shimin did support it fully and spoke warned.

"Your Majesty is wise! We will remember it in our hearts." Everyone tightened their hearts and answered with fists clasped.

"I have some data that I would like to ask the princes of the court to listen to. This is the official who asked the prince to preside over it. It took a month to check the rough statistics made by [-] counties such as Chang'an, Luoyang, and Taiyuan. Some of them were not checked. It can be said that it is appalling." Feng Daiwen picked up the remaining booklets and distributed them to his family and said.

When Li Chengqian saw that Feng Daiwen had put all the credit on himself, he stood up very happily and said: "Return to father, what General Feng said is true, six of the eighteen counties are led by the ministers to investigate."

Li Shimin looked at his son and became more and more satisfied.It seems that what Feng Daiwen said is not wrong. Being a prince is not only about studying, but more importantly, participating in various affairs. In just a few months, Li Chengqian was taught by no one and just followed. He has great energy, courage, and ability. Change.After receiving a booklet, he just nodded and didn't speak, which made Li Chengqian very excited.

Then he opened a booklet and said: "Because there is not much preparation, I will read it for everyone. In 45 counties, 12 temples and Taoist temples were investigated, [-] were obscene and dirty, and [-] were sheltering fugitives. Three families, almost all of them have weapons, lent usury to [-] families, violently refused to inspect four families, and wounded [-] officials."

After everyone digested it, they continued to speak angrily: "45 families, there are more than 800 monks, Taoist priests, and women's crowns, more than 1000 tenants, covering an area of ​​more than 600 mu of fertile land, countless mountains, and even officials colluding with temples. , entrusting the fields to temples to avoid taxation. A total of gold jewelry, silver and copper coins, and silk and silk cloth were seized, totaling more than 230 million coins."

Li Shimin's face turned greener the more he heard it, and after Feng Daiwen finished reading it, he shouted angrily: "Everyone should be killed!"

"My lord, appease your anger. I think this is just a mere [-] counties. The whole country should be thoroughly investigated, and the crimes should be made public to reassure the people." As Li Shimin's brother-in-law, Changsun Wuji stood up and said without hesitation. .

"The minister thought that he should be severely punished." Qin Qiong said.

"I think I want to control the influence, so as not to arouse public anger and cause chaos." Du Ru said succinctly and succinctly.

All of a sudden, the court was like a vegetable market, expressing their indignation to Li Shimin one after another, as if Buddhism and Taoism have become sinners through the ages, not killing is not enough to make the common people angry, not killing is not enough to thank the world, especially Confucianism is the most popular.

Li Shimin watched the fire from the other side, calmed down, raised his hand and pressed down, and the hall fell silent immediately. "Feng Aiqing, since you discovered it first, do you have any suggestions?"

"Reporting to the Holy Majesty, I thought that first of all, we should thoroughly investigate the whole country with the force of thunder, so that they should not have time to react. Secondly, not all Buddhists are bad people. They should be distinguished by classics. Only those who can read and recite three classics can be counted as a monk. People, the imperial court will distribute the documents for the degree, and they will have to pay taxes like the common people in the future. Those who can recite three classics are regarded as believers, and they can be released home and distributed land. As a result, the female crown will be arranged by the local government, and if there is a home, go home, and if there is no home, arrange a marriage nearby."

Li Shimin saw that Feng Daiwen's arrangement was very appropriate, so he couldn't help smiling and asked: "Do you have anything to add?"

"I have no objection!" Everyone had no better additions, and they didn't want to offend Feng Daiwen, a popular person, with a little thing.

"Decree that the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple will dispatch personnel, and all Yushitai will dispatch. Each county will dispatch 500 soldiers from each county to thoroughly investigate all temples and Taoist temples. Every Taoist monk must have a certificate issued by the imperial court. The temple itself will be divided according to the head. The land and everything else is state-owned, including mountains and forests. The heads of the three departments are responsible for the inventory." Li Shimin decreed.

"I have a reminder to pay attention to. Unscrupulous temples like to put gold, silver and jewelry among Buddha statues, and some like to build secret rooms, so pay more attention." Feng Daiwen suggested.

"Thank you, General Feng, for reminding us that we will dig three feet to investigate this time. We will never let a filthy place go." Dali Temple Minister Dai Zhou said.

"All the Qing family should work together to get rid of this scourge for the Tang Dynasty. Dai Qing family, you led five thousand soldiers to the Shaolin Temple in person. You also contributed a lot to attacking Wang Shichong back then. I don't want to be too demanding, so as not to fall into the mouth. They register and make a book, and they can count the land." Li Shimin instructed.

"Wei Chen understands!"

A vigorous campaign to eradicate false Buddhism and Taoism in the entire Tang Dynasty was launched. Because of Feng Daiwen's previous suggestion, many Taoists came out to join Shuofang Medical College, Chang'an Research Institute, and Datang actively participated in the brainwashing of alien races. Many of the remaining people are not Taoists, and it is not a pity to lose them.The Buddhist family was miserable. From the big to the small, none of the family ran away, and all of them were checked. As long as there is a problem with one person in the temple, I am sorry to confiscate all the property.There are huge amounts of property with unknown sources, and those with too much land, hehe, they will also be confiscated.

You must know that the people dispatched this time, Yushitai is a group of people who can't rub the sand in their eyes, and they will find something to do if they have nothing to do. They were just impeached by Feng Daiwen in the court and canceled the right to gossip. Well, they made up for it again. Supervising the localities, the power of the military is evened out, and I just want to vent my anger.

Dali Temple and the criminal department handle cases all year round. They have seen all kinds of people, all kinds of secret rooms, and there is nothing to hide from them.They are also equipped with local county soldiers. These county soldiers are all locals and cannot be government soldiers. There are also some local ruffians who can be said to be local snakes. The gold powder on the Taoist Buddha statues in the emptied temples has not been spared. These big shots look down on it, which is a windfall for them.The censer, the living utensils of monks and priests, even the door was removed.

Newspapers quickly followed suit, and any crimes committed in temples and Taoist temples were clearly registered.So instead of objecting, the people clapped their hands and applauded.
