"Well, everything that needs to be explained has been explained before. Now I can only say that you don't need to be too careful about this matter. Have you heard about what happened in Jiangling a few years ago?"
"After listening to some, doesn't Cui Yu also want to kill him?"
"Cui Yu is good at Buddhism and Taoism. There are many people like him in Jiangnan. Killing one Cui Yu won't deter anyone. I'm just telling you this.
The two monks were so lawless that they were able to control so many people. It was really despicable, so the sect had to be stricter when it came to people in Buddhism and Taoism.
I have no intention of cutting down mountains and destroying temples. You should know what kind of situation you want, grasp the right balance, and don't cause a big mess. You can take care of the rest."
Li Xiuning had been thinking about this matter for a long time and said without any hesitation: "I'll give it a try first. I heard that the White Horse Temple in Luoyang is the ancestral home of Buddhists. I want to move the White Horse Temple to the capital. Brother, let's see...
…”
Li Po raised his brows, pondered for a moment, put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "What a good idea, if the ancestral court is not the ancestral court, the one who touches it will be their ancestral court.
You don’t know that when I was touring Luoyang, a few bald monks dared to stop my car on the way. They were really brave. In their minds, the emperor seemed to have no control over them, and only the Buddha was their master.
.
Today we asked the Buddha to move out of his hiding place and come under my nose to see if the Buddha can manifest his magic and let me see his methods."
Li Xiuning knew that her lover had never respected gods and Buddhas, so he was no longer surprised by this.
Like Li Bi and others, she often worshiped Buddha on weekdays, but she couldn't say that she was very pious, and it was far less solemn than when she paid homage to her ancestors.
So even if she worships Buddha and meets her lover for this reason, she will naturally share the same hatred. "When the world was in chaos, the monks of Baima Temple abandoned their ancestral temple and fled without a trace.
Now seeing that the world is becoming more and more peaceful, he has come back to recruit believers. The eldest brother does not need to be as knowledgeable as them. The monks just rely on their mouths to please others.
Brother, just watch and let them move their ancestral palace to Guanxi. I will find a good place for them to establish themselves and let the abbots of various temples come to the White Horse Temple to meet each other. They will be fine by then.
If they didn't want to, their monk status was removed, they were asked to return to secular life, and then they were handed over to local officials for disposal.
Brother actually has a good idea. In order to rectify Buddhism and Taoism, we really cannot cut down mountains and destroy temples, otherwise they will not come back again and again. The lessons from the past are not far away, so it is best to make plans slowly."
Li Po: "Okay, just know what you're doing. As you said, the monks and Taoist priests don't have swords and arrows in their hands. As long as they don't scold the bald donkey in front of the monks, they can still talk easily."
Li Xiuning smiled so hard that her slender eyes narrowed, "We are talking about business, and brother is joking again."
Li Po: "Anyway, while the world is still settled, you can handle these two things for me. When talking about the meritorious ministers of the early Tang Dynasty in the future, you, Li Sanniang, will naturally be indispensable."
Li Xiuning suppressed her smile, but her slender eyes didn't open very much. She was obviously very moved in her heart, but her words were unforgiving, "Can the elder brother still allow me to go to Lingyan Pavilion?"
Li Po put his hands on his hands and laughed, "You are very ambitious... As long as you have such achievements, you may not be unable to achieve your wishes. You know, I am not a person who is imitating the past, and I will not look down on you women."
Li Xiuning slapped the table, "Brother, please remember what I said today. Although I am a woman, I still have to go to Lingyan Pavilion. As long as eldest brother gives me a chance..."
Smart and wild women have always been able to win Li Po's heart. Seeing Li Xiuning's appearance at this time, Li Po liked it very much and raised his palms to high-five Li Xiuning in a serious manner.
"If this is true, with you...the story of the founding of the Tang Dynasty will definitely be more exciting."
Li Xiuning's eyes shone brightly, and the ambition that had been extinguished for many years burned like wildfire. However, her reason was still there, and she could not find her without being stirred up by her lover.
Those people in Lingyan Pavilion all carry the power of following the dragon. The only exception is King Wu Li Fuwei, who was a prince in the late Sui Dynasty. He took the initiative to join his family and surrendered, leaving no escape route for himself, so
Being able to follow the dragon heroes and rank above.
Because of his contribution, King Wu ranks first.
From the fourth year of Yuanzhen, when the Tang Dynasty established the Lingyan Pavilion, to now more than three years ago, no one has been able to climb up to the Lingyan Pavilion and receive thousands of incense and royal offerings.
Therefore, this ambition is a bit too big for Li Xiuning. It is as unrealistic as Li Po's desire to compete with others for supremacy in the world just after he took control of the Heng'an Town Army.
Li Xiuning calmed down and said, "Eldest brother is indeed the founder of the country. A few words can make people die. I am a female generation. After listening to eldest brother's words, my blood is rushing. I can't do it myself, let alone those men in the world who want to make contributions.
?”
Li Po was used to flattery, but Li Sanniang never had too much flattery. "You don't have to be serious. You have been with me for many years. What achievements can compare with this?"
He was still so smart, and he would always say nice things to make women happy. The later female (harmonious) rights fighters would definitely give him a big eye roll, but the women of the current world would regard these as the most beautiful sweet words.
"Well... I don't dare to take credit. Since the last time we met, my eldest brother hasn't visited me for several months. Do you feel that your energy is low and you don't dare to come?"
As he spoke, Li Xiuning himself started laughing.
Li Po touched his nose and felt that Li Sanniang was also in trouble, so he said teasingly: "You have found a helper, it is really difficult to deal with... When are you free, can you go to Madam's house for tea?"
After talking about the business, the conversation between the two people gradually became deviant. They met each other only a handful of times outside, especially in the main hall of the clan. Both men and women felt a little irritated.
Zongzheng Temple is actually equivalent to the royal ancestral hall. Genealogy and other things are kept here, but the ancestral tablets are not placed.
According to the rules, Zongzheng Temple is in charge of family law, and Taimiao Temple is dedicated to the ancestors of the royal family. Together, they function as a folk ancestral hall.
In a place like this, if you are a little less solemn, that would be disrespectful to the ancestors. Therefore, these two people are a bit out of tune. If the ancestors heard this, they would definitely jump in anger and curse their unworthy descendants.
Li Po didn't care about this, but Li Xiuning was a little wary and stopped talking after a few words. She just wanted her lover to come to the house to see her more often.
As for the sister-in-law... it is a way to keep someone. Men always like the new and dislike the old. Her father and brother are like this, and her lover is no exception.
I have to say that the nobles had a pretty good time...
