Chapter eight hundred and seventy-fifth: Your Highness, it is very beneficial to destroy the Fahuazong
"Qing and others say that Huazong has colluded with Jiancheng and wants to plot evil..."
In the Jiade Hall of the East Palace, Li Shimin, who was sitting on the main seat, heard the news reported by Changsun Wuji and others. He couldn't help but silently touched the mustache on his chin with his hand and said hesitantly.
"Is there any evidence for this?"
Naturally, a certain person will not speak casually and deal with His Highness!"
After hearing Li Shimin's words, Changsun Wuji, who was sitting next to Li Shimin, immediately turned around and cast his gaze on Zhang Liang, the tongue-curling star in the back row, and said in a deep voice.
"Zhang Liang, you are the commander of Baiqi now, so it is up to you to report to His Highness!"
"yes!"
After hearing Changsun Wuji's words, Zhang Liang, the Curly Tongue Star Lord, immediately stood up from his seat, then walked to the middle of the Jiade Hall and bowed respectfully to Li Shimin.
"Your Highness, according to an emergency report from Baiqi, someone suspected of being the deposed prince Li Jiancheng appeared at Guoqing Temple in Tiantai Mountain fifteen days ago and secretly met with the current head of the Fahua Sect, the great monk Zhang An. Although Baiqi was in the Fahua Sect's
Due to his low status, the internal affairs officer could not find out what they talked about specifically, but it is said that the deposed prince was smiling when he left Guoqing Temple, obviously his wish came true..."
"Everything goes well...hum!"
Hearing Zhang Liang tell the cause and effect of the incident so confidently, even the time, place and person, Li Shimin couldn't help but subconsciously believe what he said, so he snorted dissatisfied.
"What exactly does the Fahua Sect want to do?"
"this……"
Zhang Liang looked up at Li Shimin and replied respectfully.
"I don't know... but the deposed prince was defeated by His Highness that day. Before escaping into that strange door, he once shouted that he would definitely make a comeback, so I think he went to the Fahua Sect to discuss this matter, right?"
"snort!"
Hearing Zhang Liang's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but frown, and an angry look passed across his face.
"That's nonsense. Back then, I could defeat him outside the Xuanwu Gate, but now I can defeat him alone!"
"Having said that, you must be careful!"
After hearing what Li Shimin said, Changsun Wuji on the other side stroked his beard with his hand again, and reminded Li Shimin darkly.
"Before the saint was assassinated by the deposed prince in collusion with the King of Qi, didn't Qingwei also remind you that the Fa Huazong was interested in Li Jiancheng, the future Buddha, and wanted to fully support him to ascend the throne? Now it seems that the two of them are
The family alliance seems to be very close!"
"..."
Li Shimin was silent, but there was a sharp look in his eyes. It was obvious that the Fahua Sect was still supporting Li Jiancheng even though the victory between him and Li Jiancheng was already decided, which made him very unhappy.
"Then how should the ministers deal with the Fahua Sect?"
"Your Highness!"
After hearing Li Shimin's inquiry, Fang Xuanling on the side stroked his beard with his hand and said.
"The Fahua Sect colluding with the deposed prince is a standard conspiracy. Although what they did is not as shocking as the Nirvana Sect, the nature is the same..."
"Exactly!"
As soon as Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Du Ruhui continued.
"Your Highness, I think that just as the imperial court dealt with the Nirvana Sect in the past, it should deal with the Fahua Sect now!"
"What……"
After hearing Du Ruhui's words, even Li Shimin, who boasted that he had thunder in his chest and a face as flat as a lake, was shocked.
"Do you mean to completely eliminate the Lotus Sect like the Nirvana Sect?"
"good!"
Changsun Wuji continued.
"The Fahua Sect has repeatedly told His Highness... No! It should be said that he is against the imperial court. If he is not punished severely, I am afraid that all the monks in the world will follow suit. Where will the prestige of the imperial court be? Where will your own prestige be, Your Highness?"
?”
"But……"
After hearing the suggestions from his group of embryo killers, Li Shimin immediately hesitated.
"The Fahua Sect is different from the declining Nirvana Sect. It has at least tens of thousands of monks all over the world, and there are even more believers. If we just do it directly, what if the Fahua Sect is in a desperate situation and fights back with all its strength?
, will it lead to the disaster of the former Sui Dynasty?"
"Your Highness, don't worry..."
After hearing Li Shimin's concerns, Changsun Wuji, who was sitting below him, explained confidently.
"I and Fang Du have made some calculations and feel that even if we attack the Fahua Sect now, we won't have a situation similar to that of the former Sui Dynasty!"
"oh……"
Li Shimin looked at Changsun Wuji's confident face and couldn't help but asked with some doubts,
"Auxiliary machine, why are you so sure?"
"Is such that!"
Changsun Wuji touched his beard with his hand and smiled slightly.
"After this period of preaching, I discovered that those believers who are extremely fanatical about their faith, that is, the believers who can provide a stable and large amount of faith incense to someone, are always very few, and most of the believers are the kind of people who just go to the temple.
Enter, those who worship God when they see them..."
"That's right!"
As soon as Changsun Wuji finished speaking, Cheng Yaojin on the side already spoke.
"Those believers are basically the kind of people who Qingwei said, 'If you don't ask him for money anyway, you will believe him to some extent'!"
"Hahaha……"
After hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, the gods present thought about the situation of their own believers, and all of them burst into laughter.
"The fanatical believers in front of us naturally know that as long as there is a certain oracle, anything can be done..."
Changsun Wuji looked at Li Shimin and said in a serious tone.
"But the latter kind is different. I believe everyone knows that even if there is a certain oracle, these people must first consider whether this matter will be harmful to themselves, and then decide whether to do it or not.
Your Highness, just imagine..."
Having said this, Changsun Wuji smiled slightly at Li Shimin.
"If we believers of the true God are like this, can those believers in Buddhism do better than us?"
"Of course not!"
Cheng Yaojin spoke again.
"At least we are still doing real things for believers, but when did those gang of thieves and monks do things for believers..."
"Um!"
Li Shimin nodded slightly.
In fact, since he became a god, he has vaguely felt that... Even if he is a good god like himself who works hard and does not hesitate to use the public power of the court to help him give divine favors, believers are still the same as Changsun Wuji said.
, the vast majority of them are just fake people, and there are very few true fanatical believers.
"A certain person has roughly calculated that only one fanatical believer can be found among about a thousand of our believers. Even if Buddhism has been established for hundreds of years earlier than a certain person and has a deep foundation, then it is better to think of one in five hundred of them!
"
Changsun Wuji straightened his back and said confidently.
"Based on the fact that there are millions of followers of the Lotus Sect in the world, the number of followers who are really willing to sacrifice everything for Buddhism, even at the expense of resisting the imperial court, can only be more than 10,000, and not more than 20,000."
"What the auxiliary machine said is absolutely true!"
Fang Xuanling on the side saw the thoughtful look on Li Shimin's face and immediately continued while the iron was hot.
"Actually, Your Highness, you can get a general idea of the Nirvana Sect from the time you paid it over. Although the Nirvana Sect has been operating in Changsha for more than ten years, it can be said that believers are all over Changsha. Everyone burns incense and every family worships Buddha. But when the imperial court and the Taishi Bureau
When we really start to clear up the debt, there are not even a hundred believers who are willing to stand up and die with the Nirvana Sect..."
"So even if the enemy is lenient, the most that the Fahua Sect can resist is the tens of thousands of monks plus less than 20,000 believers..."
Du Ruhui also spoke.
"Moreover, the world is at peace in the beginning, the people's minds are stable, our Tang Dynasty has clear and clear politics, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. At this time, even if Prince Zhishilang Bo comes back to life, he will not be able to make our Tang Dynasty repeat the fate of the Sui Dynasty just because of this matter.
It’s the same mistake, so Your Highness doesn’t have to worry about it.”
"Um!"
Li Shimin nodded again.
If it were just Changsun Wuji's opinion, there might be some ill-thought out aspects, but since both Fang Mou and Dudu had made a unanimous decision, it meant that the matter he was worried about should not be a problem.
There are too big problems.
"But the Lotus Sect is said to have quite a few Earthly Immortals and Bodhisattvas in its sect!"
Li Shimin raised another question that he had just considered.
"Even if I want to destroy him, if we just rely on the strength in our hands, will it..."
"Your Highness can let the Taishi Bureau be responsible for this matter..."
Changsun Wuji said sadly from the side.
"For the reason that those who are in the mortal world return to the mortal world, and those who are outside the mortal world return to the outside of the mortal world, all those earthly immortals and Bodhisattvas are handed over to Qingwei. He is a banished immortal appointed by Laojun, and he will not be unable to deal with the earthly immortals of the Fahua Sect.
Immortal?"
"..."
After hearing Changsun Wuji's words, the remaining people present silently raised their heads and glanced at Changsun Wuji.
Conscience of heaven and earth!
This sentence related to Qingwei was purely developed by Changsun Wuji himself and had nothing to do with them.
"Um!"
Li Shimin pondered for a moment and nodded.
"If it's Qingwei... okay! Guhui will discuss this matter with Qingwei!"
"Your Highness, from a public point of view, the amount of forest and farmland occupied by monks and nuns in the world is already too large and must be reduced; from a private point of view, the Fahua Sect's collusion with the deposed prince to build it involves evil intentions."
On the other hand, Du Ruhui saw that Li Shimin's attitude had relaxed, so he immediately spoke and increased the pressure.
"the most important is……"
Having said this, Du Ruhui lowered his voice and continued.
"For Your Highness, the Lord of the Stars, if you don't eliminate your Buddhist beliefs, how can your noble identity be reflected..."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Cheng Yaojin on the side pointed out the vague meaning of Du Ruhui's words.
"Laojun only gave us thirty years. If Your Highness wants to return to the Divine Palace in the future and intimidate the other Star Lord gods, especially those gods who are following Qingwei now, His Highness, your divine power cannot
Too low! Don’t forget..."
As he spoke, Cheng Yaojin raised his hand and pointed towards the castle floating over the side of Chang'an.
"There is a god with an extremely special identity. If by then his power is higher than yours... Your Majesty, what do you think is the dignity of your Lord of the Stars?"
"..."
After hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, Li Shimin narrowed his eyes slightly and finally made up his mind.
"What you said is absolutely true. Then I will trouble you to draw up a detailed plan for this matter, and make sure it is foolproof!"
