Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 802 Double Strike
"Lu Gong, get up, get up, something bad, something bad!"

The petty official anxiously shook Lu Qing, the Governor of Longxi, who was resting. Lu Qing woke up from his sleep, and was extremely angry.

"Why are you so rude? What's wrong? Did the barbarians enter the mansion?!"

Lu Qing pushed the little official away, sat up, and put on his clothes.

"That's right, the barbarians are here to arrest you!"

There was a loud roar from outside the door, the door was quickly knocked open, and a group of people broke into the inner room. Lu Qing stared at the person who came, and when he saw the appearance of the person who came, he smiled wryly .

"Your Majesty? Why are you here?"

Liu Chang, Xia Houzao and others walked into the inner room one after another, found a place at random and sat down.Lu Qing jumped off Hu's bed in a hurry, tidied up his clothes in a hurry, and just saluted Liu Chang. This series of actions was really not easy for him, an elderly minister, and he was tossed Panting.

Liu Chang looked at Lu Qing in front of him, and said displeasedly: "You woke up early, are you going to eat two meals together? Responding to the imperial censor, you are thrifty, right?"

Lu Qing blushed, and hurriedly explained: "I checked the documents all night yesterday and slept very late, so I woke up a little late today."

"I'm not here to find out what time you wake up."

Liu Chang looked at the surrounding decorations, and then asked: "You have done a good job these days, Longxi has begun to provide assistance to foreign countries. I see that you have assisted a Jinfutu that is several feet high in Changling. When will you give it to Hou?" Dedian also help one?"

Lu Qing's heart trembled, and she immediately understood why His Majesty appeared here.

"Your Majesty, these matters are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites. As long as they have the permission of the Ministry of Rites, they are not considered adulterers, and I can't deal with them. I don't know that Your Majesty hates foreign ghosts and gods so much."

"No, it has nothing to do with whether you are a foreigner or not. As we all know, I am the grandson of Xunzi. I talk about the changes in the sky. I never believe in any ghosts and gods. Even if it is the local Taiyi, I am not willing to let It increases temples, people waste money, and ministers are even more terrible. If the theory of ghosts and gods is popular among ministers, the big man will perish in the hands of ghosts and gods sooner or later. At the beginning, Qin Shihuang was obsessed with longevity because he believed in the words of ghosts and gods. , and when my father built the Great Han Dynasty, officials from all over the country led the people to conduct various sacrifices with great fanfare, wasting money in vain!"

"What the Ministry of Rites looks at is whether their ideas are harmful to the temple. Isn't it up to you to decide the affairs of the temple?"

"You just let them build temples everywhere, accumulate money and land, and collude with local tyrants??"

Lu Qing lowered her head, unable to speak for a long time.

Lu Lu on the side reminded: "Actually, this is not to be blamed on Mr. Lu. After all, this kind of thing has never happened in the past. These people came from poison. With Mr. Lu's ability, if you want to deal with these things well, you can't use them." How long."

Only then did Lu Qing hurriedly say: "I will do it now!"

Liu Chang kept a straight face and didn't answer. Lu Qing hurried out of the inner room and sent someone to summon the officials.

Xia Houzao grinned, "The news that His Majesty personally raised the ten-zhang golden man has spread all over the place, and the common people think of it as a god. If this continues, the common people will not believe in ghosts and gods, but will change their faith in Your Majesty."

Hearing Xia Houzao's words, a smile appeared on Liu Chang's originally serious face, and he quickly reacted, cursing: "What kind of golden man, what nonsense, I raised the golden pagoda to prevent the common people Being blinded has nothing to do with the rest!"

"Isn't that simple?!"

"Your Majesty, give an order! No one is allowed to contact foreign schools, and those theories from outside are not allowed to enter the big man, completely block these knowledge, and anyone who dares to touch it will be beheaded!"

Xia Houzao spoke confidently.

Liu Chang looked at him for a long time and asked, "Is it closed to the outside world?"

Immediately, Liu Chang looked at Lu Lu, "Lu, remember to remind me for the rest of my life, don't let Zao hold any clerical position in this life!"

"What's wrong with that?"

"Nonsense, both knowledge and technology are improved through communication. Your method will not work. Although I don't like ghosts and gods, Futu also has many ideas and knowledge of his own. These ideas and knowledge are consistent with the theory of the Central Plains After the exchange, there will be new developments, if you directly ban all foreign schools, how can you develop?"

"What else can we learn from those barbarians?"

"There is always something to learn from, don't be so conceited!"

Liu Chang stayed in Longxi for a few days, but Lu Qing was full of firepower and implemented a series of policies in the territory, including prohibiting the establishment of temples to collect money and expand the land, prohibiting sacrificial activities and only conducting academic exchanges, etc.

When a county guard is doing his best, the efficiency is terrible. In just a few days, a large number of Buddhist temples were closed, and those Buddhist temples could only be forced to give up the idea of ​​becoming landlords. Spread your ideas as a scholar.

Liu Chang only stayed in Longxi for a few days, ordered Lu Qing to continue to handle this matter well, and then led the people back to Chang'an.

"Look at the good deeds your father has done!"

Liu Heng's brows were deeply frowned. Looking at the many performances in front of him, he stared at Liu An who was standing in front of him very displeased.

Liu An stood in front of him with a sad face.

"Father Zhong, what Father Father did can't be said to be wrong, these temples are indeed"

"The idea is right, but what can you do? A ten-foot-old man? Who does he think he is? If he hurts himself, what should he do? At this age, he is still so impulsive!!"

Liu An felt even more helpless, you think my father is wrong, so go scold my father, what is it if you catch me and scold me?

Probably seeing the complaints in Liu An's heart, Liu Heng said again: "Your father is a man who is not good at anything, and he can't persuade him at all, but you are different from him. As the eldest son, you should pay more attention to him. Situation! Someone should be sent to dissuade it!"

How can I dissuade you if you don't have any oil and salt? ?
Liu An complained in his heart, but he could only obediently admit his mistake, "Father Zhong is right, it's all my fault, I must persuade my father well."

With a long sigh, Liu Heng put away the paperwork.

"An, it's up to you to do this. Your father is not good at dealing with these people. Using force can only make them feel scared, but it can't stop them. You are more suitable for such a thing than your father. "

"What does Father Zhong mean??"

"Don't use force. Since they are here to tell you about your own knowledge, then you should go and tell them about your knowledge."

Liu An immediately understood, this is for me to destroy humanity through debate, right?

Liu Heng seriously instructed: "I know that there are a lot of scholars among your disciples, take them to have a good debate, and be prepared, but don't be used by others. If you are debated, you will gain power."

"Father Zhong, you are looking down on people to some extent."

"Don't dare to say anything else, just talk about this knowledge, no one in the world can step on my head to stand up."

Liu An spoke with great confidence.

"It's the best, but don't underestimate them. I heard that those Hu Renfutu debated with many people, and their academic opinions have been recognized. If you lose to them"

Liu An was very displeased, "Father Zhong, I'll go find them myself! You're very impressive!!"

When Liu An left angrily, Gongsun Hong beside him couldn't help but said: "Yu Shigong, the prince's knowledge is well-known in the world, why do you despise him so much?"

Liu Heng smiled lightly, "This Zhu Zi thinks highly of himself on weekdays. If he doesn't give some stimulation, he might not go all out. I'm not worried that he will lose, but I just want him to win more thoroughly."

Gongsun Hong suddenly realized, and then nodded.

Liu Heng looked at him again, "It's not just Futu who talk about the theory of ghosts and gods, but also you, see clearly the fate of the Futu school, and change your views as soon as possible. If one day you offend His Majesty because of this, your school will be thrown away." Only you and Gong Yangshou are going out."

"only!!!"

Liu An angrily returned to his mansion, summoned many disciples, entrusted the matter to them, and then said that he would go to Longxi and other areas to have a debate with those Futu masters in person.

Wu was a little surprised, "Your Highness, why do you need to do it yourself? Why don't you send a few followers to replace you? How can you use a butcher's knife to kill chickens?"

"It doesn't matter, the knife for slaughtering a cow is more powerful, and if you cut off the head with a knife, you will not come back to life."

The story of Liu Changju Jinren was passed on by word of mouth among the common people, and it can be said that there was an uproar in the northwest region.

The local people are all talking about the mighty power displayed by His Majesty. Obviously, this is comparable to the behavior of the Hercules in those myths, which makes the people very excited. The rumors are getting more and more mysterious. Zhang, ten Zhang became twenty Zhang, and many new versions have evolved, such as the Buddha met His Majesty, competed with His Majesty, and was thrown out by His Majesty, and some people said that the Buddha sacrificed a living person and was thrown by His Majesty. Knowing that, the man throwing gold angrily, even in some places became the emperor and the Buddha to compete for the beauty, to compete for strength
The rumors are getting more and more outrageous, but no matter what changes have taken place in the content of the rumors, the people's thoughts are the same. They all think that His Majesty has the destiny and the power to overturn mountains.

Unlike the excited and happy people, Hu Futu, who played the role of the villain in the story, can no longer laugh out loud at this moment.

The current Buddha is not the later Buddha. Many of the later Buddha’s ideas were born after combining the Central Plains theory. The current Buddha culture can be regarded as a bit barbaric. They had a difficult life when they were poisoned and were overthrown in the Peacock Empire. Afterwards, they lost their last paradise, were driven everywhere, and were forced to be beggars on the road. They later took this as their own practice method, but the contact between the big man and the poison gave them a new direction .

They began to flood into the territory of the Han Dynasty in large numbers, spreading their own ideas, and wanted to establish their own supremacy like the original Peacock Empire.

The Buddha during the Ashoka period publicly opposed caste and believed that everyone was equal. It was a sharp weapon used by Ashoka to deal with the Brahmin nobles. However, after the death of Ashoka, the Buddha gradually replaced the Brahmins, occupying a large amount of land and wealth. The great event in the temple finally led to the appearance of the king killer, which indirectly led to the demise of the Maurya Empire.

After they came to Dahan, they continued to strengthen their understanding of the local area, improve and revise their cultural propositions, because they have been suppressed too many times, and they have long been accustomed to how to effectively avoid the attack from the temple.

But this time, they couldn't avoid it anymore.

What can they do when they meet an emperor who doesn't believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, but himself is comparable to ghosts and gods?

This emperor who resembles Ashoka has so many schools of thought in the country, will he still need their ideas to help him stabilize the world?

And if they can no longer buy land to build temples, how can they further strengthen their influence?
More than a dozen Hu people gathered in Hexi at this moment, and began to discuss the next countermeasures.

"The emperor of Han hates us so much. What should we do?"

These Hu people came from various places in China, and they didn't understand each other's language, so they adopted Chinese as the language of communication with each other in a weird way.

As one of them asked, the other said: "He doesn't hate us, he just doesn't like ghosts and gods. Let him know that Buddhas are not ghosts and gods. Everyone is a Buddha. Buddhas are everyone. This is different from ghosts and gods." "

"But how do you let him know?"

"This emperor has the power of a Buddha, and has no enemies in the whole world. He won't listen to our explanation at all."

"No, although this emperor is brave, his heart is kind. Judging from his deeds, most of them are good governance. He didn't directly drive or kill us like the poisonous countries, so we can see that he As long as what we say makes sense, he will definitely obey."

Everyone behaves differently.

Some people are already very scared. They have been persecuted many times in the body, and they have formed an instinctive vigilance. They feel that they can no longer stay in the big man, lest one day the emperor orders them to be wiped out.

Some people feel that this is their opportunity and are eager to try.

Some are worried, some are silent.

The old Hu monk who had dealt with Liu Chang said confidently at this moment: "Everyone, I think that since the emperor allows us to continue to practice, we should put aside the temple affairs first and stick to our practice. Recruit disciples, meet everyone, communicate with them"

While they were discussing, an official came to the door suddenly.

This scared them a lot.

Fortunately, the official did not show any dissatisfaction with them. He just brought an order. The prince of the Han Dynasty wanted to meet with them when he learned about them, to ask about some difficult things he had encountered, and to exchange knowledge.

Some people were ecstatic when they heard the news.

"Isn't this the opportunity we need? If we can't convince the emperor, we can convince the future emperor! Even through the crown prince, our words can reach that emperor's ears!"

"Yes! Let's start now!!"

But some people also voiced their concerns.

"Who knows what this prince is thinking? If he is going to vent his anger on his father, wouldn't we go to him and kill ourselves?"

"No, the prince's reputation is very good."

"How can fame be trusted? I'm not going anyway, I'm leaving the big man."

The crowd started to quarrel, and after repeated discussions, they finally made a decision. More than half of the people were willing to go to Longxi to meet the prince, but only four decided to leave here and return to Shendu.

These Hu monks made all the preparations, called their disciples, picked up many of their own scriptures, and then got into the carriage and galloped towards Longxi.

These people are very confident in themselves.

They even began to think about using the power of the prince to achieve the power of Ashoka when the big man also reached it! !
The two sides successfully met in Longxi.

Liu An only brought two doormen. Facing these barbarians, his face was calm, his eyes squinted, and he seemed to be kind. However, these barbarians still had a benevolent look, and came forward to meet them with a smile.
When Liu Chang returned to the palace, before he had time to greet the queen, he was called to the palace of longevity by the queen mother.

Empress Lu was extremely dissatisfied with Liu Chang's behavior, and angrily swung the crutch in her hand.

"You idiot with a short memory!! You have great strength, don't you?"

"How many times have I told you! Are you so contemptible?! If you get hurt, what shall we do?!"

Liu Chang lowered his head, no matter how abused by his mother, he dared not speak back.

When Empress Lu got a little tired from scolding, Liu Changfang secretly raised his head, "Mother, that thing is a good-looking thing, not as heavy as my fifth brother!"

"I've always kept your teachings in mind. What kind of golden man is just like me. I lifted it up casually. If you don't believe me, you can ask Lu Lu!"

"Besides, these pagodas built temples on my father's mausoleum. How can I bear it? It would be easy to smash his temples. I didn't kill those people."

Empress Lu sneered, "When did you become so filial?"

"I am a great man who governs the world with filial piety. As the son of heaven, I am the most filial piety in the world, and no one can compare with it."

"An went to Longxi."

Liu Chang was taken aback, "Huh? Ann? What is he going to Longxi for?"

"Of course it's for you to take care of this useless aftermath. I only heard that my father dealt with his son's mess. I have never seen you like this. An led the disciples to Longxi, saying that he wanted to debate knowledge and discuss ideas with Buddha."

Liu Chang laughed immediately, "This is my fourth brother's idea, right? Although An Shuzi's knowledge is not as good as mine, but to deal with those barbarians, it is like using gunpowder to explode insects and flies. I just smashed their temples , Fourth brother is good, this is for someone's job and it's ruined."

"You have confidence in Ann."

"That's right, where can my son be sent besides Ci?"

"Stop going to have fun looking for Lu Jia. This kind of thing still needs to be regulated through policies. Let Lu Jia and Liu Jing handle this matter. If they can't handle it well, I still have someone here."

"I know Marquis of Shandu, mother, don't worry, Lu Jia and Liu Jing are enough, we won't let Marquis of Shandu go into battle in armor."

ps: I went to the housing management office to do the transfer, and I finally got my own house. Alas, it was not easy. The loan gave me more motivation to code. I will continue to work hard and open Code Chapter 2.
