Chapter 460 Yunchu follows the rules and disciplines
At the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Laozi was regarded as the ancestor of the royal family, Taoism was used to elevate the status of the Li family, and the policy of advocating Taoism and suppressing Buddhism was implemented.
Taoists seized this opportunity and violently attacked Buddhism.
Fu Yi, who once served as a bachelor of Taoist temple in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, later became a Taoist priest, and entered the Tang Dynasty as Taishi Ling. He wrote to Emperor Gaozu many times.
He accused Buddhism of "stealing the power of human beings and taking advantage of nature" and "does nothing to the people and is of no benefit to the country."
This dispute between Buddhism and Taoism started with Fu Yi Shuqing's "abolition of monks and nuns and reduction of pagoda temples" in the fourth year of Wude, and ended with Shi Falin's death in exile in the fourteenth year of Zhenguan. It lasted for twenty years.
During these twenty years, the number of monks' ultimatums distributed to Buddhists was once as low as only four hundred a year.
During these twenty years, a total of three Buddhist jungles were established in the Tang Dynasty.
It was not until Xuanzang returned to the Tang Dynasty after collecting Buddhist scriptures that Buddhism was revealed again. Master Xuanzang returned to Chang'an and was greeted by an empty crowd of people in Chang'an City.
This event represented that Buddhism once again gained new life in the Tang Dynasty.
Xuanzang also naturally became one of the Buddhist leaders of the Tang Dynasty.
Yun Chu couldn't understand that since the Tang royal family had regarded Lao Tzu, the founder of Taoism, as their ancestor, those Taoist priests did not move closer to the emperor, but instead focused on powerful ministers, and were even willing to be used by them.
Yunchu couldn't quite figure this out.
These people's strategic direction was wrong. No wonder they were suppressed by Buddhism for a long time and could not hold their heads up.
Yun Chu didn't believe Di Renjie's nonsense at all that he could find a way to escape.
Under the absolute control of others, even if he is very smart, it will be of little use. Just like there are many smart people in Wannian County Prison, but under the control of Yanjiu, the head of the prison, there is no use for them.
Because, no matter what you say, Yan Jiu doesn't care. He is only interested in torturing your body. As for other things, he doesn't care.
This time the debate between Buddhism and Taoism is very interesting.
Taoists want to build a mausoleum in Daqin Temple. Buddhists believe that there is gold here, which is related to their Buddhism. Changsun Wuji said that because the emperor was dissatisfied with him, he planned to be buried here after his death. No one was willing to put his words on the table.
Say it clearly.
There was no other way, so Yunchu had no choice but to go hunting in Fengyu Valley.
Three dazzling white-fronted tigers suddenly appeared in Wannian County. After devouring two cows and several pigs belonging to the people of Wannian County, they were chased away by the villagers.
The county magistrate Yun Chu has always been stingy and unreasonable. The tigers in Wannian County can eat the livestock of people in other counties. As long as they run back, they will be fine.
Tigers from other counties would come to Wannian County and eat the livestock of the people under his command. If they ran to the horizon, they would be caught by him, skinned and cramped, and sold, and he would have to repay the losses to the people of Wannian County.
This time is no exception.
Coincidentally, the Minzhuang and soldiers of Wannian County also came back from Liaodong with a lot of money. In addition, it was winter, everyone was bored, and suddenly they heard that the county magistrate was going to recruit people to hunt tigers.
So, thousands of people gathered in a huge crowd, preparing to follow the county magistrate to catch the three tigers that had escaped and sell them for money.
This is the advantage of being a county magistrate in the capital. He has the right to summon his subordinates at any time to participate in catching thieves and driving away wild animals.
The dignitaries in the capital do not have this right. Although there are many tribes, as long as the number of armored men exceeds the number stipulated by the title, it means that he will rebel.
If these armored men still hold crossbows and other things in their hands, it can be determined that they are rebelling. Yun Chu, the local magistrate, has the responsibility to capture these people before questioning them.
Of course, these are powers written in the law, and no county magistrate dares to do this.
"Tang Lu Shu Yi" was written by Changsun Wuji himself, and the rules in it were also set by Changsun Wuji himself.
Yunchu was ready to test it to see if Changsun Wuji could abide by the laws he made.
When Minzhuang, who was carrying thousands of people carrying bows and arrows and weapons and carrying the Wannian County flag, was marching towards Fengyu Valley, Baiqisi's urgent report had already been delivered to Li Zhi.
"Yunchu took thousands of people to hunt tigers in Fengyu Valley. Are you sure?" Li Zhi looked up at Zuo Chun after reading the emergency report and asked.
Zuo Chun lowered his head and said, "Probably not."
Li Zhi dropped the paperwork, put his feet on the giant bear's soft belly, smiled calmly and said, "Then, what did he do?"
Zuo Chun said: "Yun Chu said that Di Renjie is his friend and he is in Fengyu Valley at this time. However, Di Renjie is not good at martial arts and cannot defeat the tiger. It is not good to be injured by the tiger, so he plans to rescue Di Renjie first."
Li Zhi raised his eyes and looked at Zuo Chun and said, "Save people? What, the tiger won't fight?"
Zuo Chun said in a deep voice: "The tiger is too big and too ferocious. Yun Chu can't beat it, so I only say to save people."
Li Zhi sneered and said: "Is there anything else that two hundred and fifty dare not do?"
Zuo Chun said: "Your Majesty, even if it is two hundred and fifty, he must have a limit. I think that being able to do this is already his limit."
Li Zhi sneered and said, "Tell Yun Chu that Mr. Zhao has taken away more than 5,000 kilograms of gunpowder in recent years."
Zuo Chun agreed softly and left.
When Zuo Chun left the hall, Li Zhi looked into the giant bear's eyes and said, "It doesn't take five thousand kilograms of gunpowder to kill just one Yunchu, right?"
The giant bear stretched out its fat claws and tried to grab Li Zhi's hand, but he quickly avoided it.
When Yun Chu led his people to Fengyukou, Magistrate Sun of Hu County had been guarding the border of the county for a long time.
Yun Chu rode on the back of a bay red horse and looked down at Magistrate Sun and said, "I know there are many things you don't want to do, so if you don't get in my way now, I will forgive you."
Magistrate Sun said expressionlessly: "This is the boundary of our Hu County. You, Wannian County, have no right to cross the border to our Hu County to catch tigers with great fanfare."
As he spoke, Yun Chu took a step forward. He raised his hand and pulled Magistrate Sun's head away, and said to Chang Sun Huan, who was not far away: "Why are you bullying these small officials? It's beneath your status."
Changsun Huan said: "A gentleman will not do it unless he stands under a dangerous wall and takes action himself. Otherwise, what is the use of raising so many hawks and dogs?"
Yun Chu sighed and said, "Wu Zheng is going to have a hard time getting through this, right?"
Changsun Huan smiled and said: "I know you love your sister to the core, and if you use blasphemous words on her, you might go on a rampage and kill her.
Let's see, Wu Zheng's coffin has not been buried yet. If you agree to bury Wu Zheng's family at the place we selected and ask your sister to come and burn incense, this matter will be completely exposed."
Yun Chu nodded and said: "It's quite reasonable, but I don't like to be reasonable. I heard that only their branch of the Wu Zheng family died, and there are three other branches that are still alive, right?"
Changsun Huan laughed and said, "Should we summon them all?"
Yun Chu smiled and said: "Where are they? Call them out and let me see them. After all, they are the masters of suffering. It's not good if you don't show up."
Changsun Huan said: "They are waiting for you in the valley."
Yunchu said in confusion: "Since you want me to enter Fengyu Valley, why did you send Old Sun to block the way?"
Changsun Huan said: "I don't want so many people to die. This will damage your reputation of loving the people like your own children."
Yun Chu turned back to Minzhuang of Wannian County and asked, "Are you afraid of death?"
Behind Yunchu, Minzhuang, whose beard was half white, said: "If I were to return to the county, the little people would have been impatient for a long time."
The only one who answered was Old Minzhuang. The rest of Minzhuang were silent. Changsun Huan's face changed slightly and he said to Yunchu: "Are you going to make things worse?"
Yun Chu smiled and said: "Give Di Renjie to me. It's none of my business if you kill all the monks in the valley. The monks have said that in order to get a good cemetery, your family is going to kill the monks and collect their blood to water the cemetery."
.
I have always respected Mr. Zhao and will not delay the important matters of the Changsun family. As long as you give me that useless Di Renjie, I will turn around and leave."
Changsun Huan sighed and said, "Does Marquis Yun think that Changsun is such a cruel person who kills people and takes blood?"
Yun Chu said: "With the legacy of Queen Wende, the Changsun family will not and cannot do such unscrupulous things. I am very sure of this.
But the monks are willing to say this. Although I don’t believe it, there are many people in the world who are willing to believe it.
If there are a few more incidents like this, no matter how innocent the reputation of the Changsun family is, it may be blackened by these rumors."
Changsun Huan said with a smile: "The pure ones will become pure, and the turbid ones will become turbid. The Changsun family has been slandered by people all over the world for many years, and this is no less true."
Yun Chu looked at Changsun Huan with an unclear expression and said, "Be content with what you are content with and never give up. Changsun has endured it for so long, can't he continue to endure it?"
Changsun Huan laughed and said: "It's not that I can't bear it, it's just that even a little person like you has begun to ride on the head of the Changsun family. If the Changsun family continues to be shameful and endure the humiliation, the world will look down on it, and it will also attract more thoughts.
Someone who wants to ride on Changsun's head and show off his authority.
Therefore, this matter must have an outcome. One party must give in."
Yun Chu frowned and said, "Do you think this will work? My sister is still an ignorant child. If she makes a mistake, I, as her elder brother, will naturally take over.
My reputation is at its peak now, and I have just been granted the title of Marquis. Why don't you bury Wu Zheng's family at the place you selected, and I will go to his grave to offer incense and apology? Isn't it better than what my sister did?
Have face?"
Changsun Huan nodded and said: "It stands to reason that Marquis Yun has retreated to this step. He is full of sincerity, and Changsun Huan is willing to agree... Unfortunately, my father has said that your sister must personally apologize for this matter."
Yun Chu raised his head and looked at the white clouds floating in the sky and said, "You are getting stronger with age, why bother fighting for this breath."
Changsun Huan did not answer, but had a look of determination on his face.
County Magistrate Sun stood between Yun Chu and Chang Sun Huan. He seemed to hear everything they said clearly, but he seemed not to hear a word.
A dagger slipped out from the wide sleeve of his robe. After holding it with his backhand, he decisively used the dagger to slit his own throat. First, a red line appeared on his neck, and then a stream of blood mist spurted out. He faced
He was very ruthless in his actions.
The bay red horse had just taken a bath last night. When he saw the guy starting to spurt blood, he took two steps back. Then he and Yun Chu watched the blood spurting violently from Magistrate Sun's neck.
This guy had gained a lot of weight in the past two years and had a lot of blood. He sprayed for a long time before falling straight to the ground. He flattened his body and continued to pour out blood. It seemed that he would not stop until the blood in his body was drained.
When the blood dries up, the person dies and life disappears.
Neither Yun Chu nor Chang Sun Huan were surprised at this man's death, as if he should have died.
There was a smell of blood in the air. Yun Chu pointed in the direction of Fengyu Valley and said to Changsun Huan: "Fengyu Valley is on fire."
Changsun Huan suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of Fengyu Valley. Sure enough, a large plume of thick smoke rose in the direction of Fengyu Valley.
"Did you set the fire?"
Yun Chu shook his head and said: "I am right under your nose, how can I accuse someone of innocence?
Oops, now that autumn is crisp and the grass and trees are dry, it would be terrible if there was a wildfire.
Now the matter is urgent. In accordance with the laws of the Tang Dynasty, the magistrate of Hu County committed suicide. I automatically took over the power of Hu County. The sons and sons listened to the order, beat the gongs and drums, and summoned the people from ten miles and eight villages in Hu County to put out the fire."
