"I, the Censor, Yang Zhengzhi, I have a memorial!"

Yang Zhengzhi was seven feet tall, with straight facial features, and two beautiful beards were taken care of with great energy. At this moment, he pinched his hands and put on an official robe, slowly walked out of the ministers.

Yang Guang leaned back slightly against the dragon chaise, pressed his right hand lightly on the dragon's head, staring at Yang Zhengzhi with a faint expression: "I wonder what the Censor's report is?"

As soon as this statement came out, the ministers below were confused for a moment. How many simple people could stand in the court for so many years?

These civil officials and military generals are all old foxes, and their minds are unfathomable. When they heard Yang Guang say nothing, they allowed Yang Zhengzhi to report without saying a word. They immediately realized that there must be hidden information. Today's grand dynasty meeting... Maybe it's not that simple!

At this moment, whether in the first or at the end of the team, all the ministers were shocked and listened carefully to Yang Zhengzhi, or Yang Guang's next order!

"Since Zhou Wu destroyed the Buddha, it has only been a hundred years now. However, by borrowing gaodai and using ghosts and gods to intimidate the people's faith and occupying the people's land. Their own land does not require taxes and other means, not only has their vitality been quickly restored, but they are no longer inferior to their peak!"

Yang Zhengzhi bowed to Yang Guangchang, then stood up straight, and solemnly expressed the news he had investigated a few days ago.

However, before he could finish speaking, after a moment of silence in Daxing Palace, there was a sudden noise. The ministers below couldn't help but look at each other and talked a lot.

No one would have thought that Yang Guang had spent such a great price to conquer Goguryeo, but it was only a few months now. Even though the Sui Dynasty could lie on Goguryeo and suck blood, it was still far from truly recovering its vitality.

However, who would have thought that Yang Guang was ready to take action at this time, and the target of the attack this time was actually Buddhism!

"Yang Zhengzhi, you are so brave! All the Buddhists are kind-hearted and honest people. Although I do not worship Buddha, the Buddha's work of cutting flesh and feeding eagles is quite familiar. You are so slandering a good and righteous path who has great virtues and great compassion!"

"Yang Zhengzhi, do you know what you are saying! Slandering Buddha and Dharma will lead to the end of the Abyssassination of Hell!"

"Yang Zhengzhi, you won't come back yet! Are you crazy about losing your heart!"

...

Yang Zhengzhi had not finished speaking, but the ministers who knew Yang Guang very well were suddenly feeling a little unhappy. Everyone in Daxing Palace knew that Yang Zhengzhi had such behavior and had been granted Yang Guangzhi's permission.

Yang Guang took this matter to Daxing Palace, which means that he has set his sights on Buddhism, and it is very likely that he has even begun to prepare in secret to destroy Buddhism for the third time!

At present, no less than those of the Wencheng military generals who are close to Buddhism immediately shouted without hesitation, either accusing, threatening or completely denying it, and even directly saying that Yang Zhengzhi was "ill"...

In any case, they would interrupt Yang Zhengzhi's next words!

Because they all know very well that there must be many things that cannot be seen in Buddhism. This is normal. Not to mention Buddhism, Taoism, major families, and families, as long as they want to dig deeper, who doesn’t have any black material on them?

But this kind of thing must not be said in the open!

"Clang!"

"quiet!"

Standing on "Your Majesty", wearing iron-clad armor and stomach, strong figure, handsome appearance, thick and black eyebrows, and a pair of bright and energetic eyes, Zhang Xutuo suddenly shook the iron spear in his hand,

At the same time, he shouted loudly, and rang in this magnificent hall like thunder, directly covering up the voices of the ministers below!

"This is the court, and Your Majesty is above you. How can you shout so loudly?!"

Zhang Xutuo is one of the few military generals who can carry weapons to court. This not only represents his official position, but also represents that he has gained Yang Guang's trust and is highly powerful and able to protect Yang Guang!

Although his skin is dark and thick, it is not less powerful. His five fingers are clearly divided into muscles and bones. His thick arms lifted up dozens of kilograms of iron spear, as effortless as pinching an embroidery needle.

This is a master, a general who is proficient in killing, and a fierce god who cannot be defeated by tens of thousands of people on the battlefield!

"All the ministers are here to stop, wait for Yang Zhengzhi to finish his speech before he can discuss it."

When the moment when the court was in chaos and the ministers accused Yang Zhengzhi, Yang Guang's eyes were sinister and endless murderous aura was in the muddy eyes, as if he was staring at his prey, he was ready to go.

It was not until Zhang Xutuo stopped all the ministers that he hid him!

He knew the influence of Buddhism in the court, but he did not expect that in just a few years, the influence of Buddhism was so great that it could not even be subject to a question.

Are these people the ministers of Yang Guang or the ministers of Buddhism?!

"Yang Zhengzhi, continue talking!"

"Here!"

Yang Zhengzhi bowed again and completely ignored the doubts of the previous ministers. He is different from a caring and ulterior motive. His surname is Yang, and he is a serious royal family member!

At this moment, he continued to say slowly: "When I counted Buddhist temples a few days ago, I found that there are more than 50,000 temples of all sizes in the Sui Dynasty. There are about 100,000 Buddhist monks who do not do production, do not farm, and do not work, and sit and recite scriptures all day long!"

"These people are not only useless to our Great Sui Dynasty, but are also huge borers!"

Yang Zhengzhi stood in front of him, and continued to say that he was looking at him with his vicious and cold eyes, as if he was about to kill the ministers who were staring at him without notice.

"Why are the people in the world so many disasters and difficulties? I believe that Buddhism is the most important thing! They lie on the people to suck blood, not only collect money for incense, but also require gold sculptures for Buddha statues. The lights that last day and night are burning with the best incense oil!

In addition, they also let go of gaodai, deceive the public, deceive believers, and even occupy the land of the people. I have a memorial in my hand, please ask Your Majesty to read it!"

Yang Zhengzhi handed the memorial that had been prepared to the eunuch, and then said loudly: "The pillars of the country are indispensable for population and taxation. However, Buddhism claims to be born and practiced. These 100,000 monks not only cannot make any contribution to our Great Sui Dynasty, but also need to worship the people who are already suffering from life!

How can the people support these borers' endless blood-sucking? Under the Buddhist intimidation technique, they dare not complain about Buddhism, but if they can't even eat enough and cannot survive, they will not only complain or even impact the court!"

"Since the introduction of Buddhism in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Buddhism has flourished and Buddhist temples have been widely distributed. All land under the name of Buddhist temples has been exempted from land taxes throughout the years.

During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, countries fought endlessly and imposed heavy taxes. In order to escape from harsh labor and heavy taxes, the people successively entered monks and hung their land under Buddhist temples...

After a long time, after dozens or hundreds of years, these lands became Buddhists, and the people who were originally the lords of the land became Buddhists’ tenants!”

Speaking of this, Yang Zhengzhi looked at Yang Guang in anger on the high hall, but saw that Yang Guang was also in a heavy mood.

On the memorial, Yang Zhengzhi listed a few famous temples in the world. The land and land they owned when they were newly built and the land they now owned have formal records of land obtained by donation or purchase...

There is no doubt that there are at least seven or eight out of ten of the lands in these temples, and their origins are unknown and have not been reported to the court in detail!

"It is well known that all monks must abandon their families and children to stop their desires. However, since ancient times, there have been three unfilial piety in our Central Plains, and no descendants are the greatest. This sin of Buddhism cannot be forged."

"The speed of development of Buddhism is well known that so many people do not work for production, meditate and recite the Buddha's name all day long, and so much land does not pay land taxes, the most important thing is-

These two are more and more than one year!

Over time, the imperial court's treasury will be empty and the army has no source of troops. The disaster that will be in front of you will be in front of you!”

As soon as Yang Zhengzhi said this, the court suddenly became uproar.

Yang Guang was in power, and his eyes behind the pearl curtain were staring coldly at the ministers below. At this moment, whether for the future of the Great Sui Dynasty or his own personal grudges, it was necessary to deal with Buddhist affairs!

Anyone who dares to stop is his enemy, the enemy of the Great Sui Dynasty!

However, although there are many people in this court who have a close relationship with Buddhism, how many people really believe in Buddhism and are willing to risk angering Yang Guang and speak for it?

These people who are in the court can hardly describe how cunning they are!

Although the ministers were talking in private, they were asked to stand up and report the news and risk their death to be destroyed, but few people dared to be silenced!

"Mr. Yang's words are intimidating and exaggerating doubts!"

After a silence, a clear and firm voice suddenly sounded among the ministers.

At present, Yu Wenhua, Dugu Feng and others looked back to see who this warrior dared to face the bloody face.

But I only saw-

This person was actually the younger brother of Empress Xiao. He was demoted before because he opposed Yang Guang's personal expedition to Goguryeo. A few days ago, because Yang Guang defeated Goguryeo, expanded his territory, and deliberately summoned Xiao Yu from Hechi County to show off!

Xiao Yu and Xiao Yu were born in Nanliang and were born after the royal family. They were upright by nature and the Buddhist style of Nanliang was prosperous. Xiao Yu was influenced by Buddhism since he was a child and was naturally the most staunch supporter of Buddhism.

With Yang Guang eyeing him, there is no one else who dares to stand up and support Buddhism at this moment, except for him, a foreign relative and important official.

"I'll tell you, although what Lord Yang said may not be unreasonable, but they are only a few, which does not mean that the entire Buddhism is like this. After all, Buddhism is so big, it is difficult to avoid any mistakes.

On the contrary, most Buddhist temples adhere to the rules of the pure and compassionate, and many monks follow the law of not doing it for a day and not eating for a day."

Xiao Yu, who is young and noble, is not clear about the middle and lower levels of Buddhism. Most of what he knows are Buddhist monks and masters, so he is concerned about what Yang Zhengzhi said.

Although he felt that Yang Zhengzhi would not dare to deceive the emperor, he thought that his words were too exaggerated and it was inevitable that there would be doubts about slandering Buddhism.

Therefore, he stood up again without hesitation and tried to defeat Buddhism.

Seeing this, Yang Guang, who was above the throne, couldn't help frowning. Although his brother-in-law has some ability, he is really... too straightforward and does not understand the way of change!

If Yang Guang hadn't really loved Empress Xiao very much and loved the house and the underworld, he would have forgiven Xiao Yu. If it were someone else, he would have been dragged out to chop him out!

His eyes turned and he looked at Yang Zhengzhi again.
Chapter completed!
