Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

But Buddhism is different, always trying to persuade you to believe.

The point is that it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, it's really fucked up to become a monk.

On the one hand, when men and women become monks, who will bear and raise children?If you believe in Buddha completely, how many generations in this country can afford to become monks?

On the other hand, Buddhist bald donkeys have done a lot of things like lending money and collecting rent.

There is nothing better than Huang Shiren in the drama.

At any rate, someone like Wang Chongyang from the Quanzhen Sect in Niubi made Emperor Chongzhen a little impressed.

As for Buddhism, hehehe.

Whether it was besieging Guangmingding or taking in Fulin, a slave who became a monk, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't have any good feelings for these bald donkeys.

Fortunately, Emperor Chongzhen knew that things should be viewed from two sides, and there are good and bad people. Otherwise, it is estimated that later generations may film a scene of a tyrant burning Shaolin Temple.

After he regained his composure, Emperor Chongzhen said: "The reason why I ordered the two of you to go to Beijing is that there is really an important matter to discuss with you. After all, it is related to Taoism and Buddhism, so we have to be cautious."

Zhang Xianyong and Bi'an Haikuan thumped in their hearts at the same time.

There are absolutely not many things related to Buddhism and Taoism that can make Emperor Chongzhen so cautious.

Maybe it is to change some policy and other things, and the impact will definitely not be small at that time.

Emperor Chongzhen ignored them, instead he pointed to the four books on the table in front of him, and ordered: "Give them to Master Zhang and the Great Monk."

Wang Chengen bowed and handed the four books on the table to Zhang Xianyong and Bi'an Haikuan respectively.

It's just that when the two of them took the book, their expressions became strange.

"Feng Shen Yan Yi" and "Journey to the West".

There are really not many people in the entire Ming Dynasty who don't know about these two books.

Of course, many people may not know the names of these two books, but there are basically few people who do not know the names of the Taishang Laojun, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Jiaozhu, Randeng Taoist, Jade Emperor, Monkey, and Tang Seng.

In particular, the story of Nezha who cut the flesh and returned the mother to his father, and the story of monkeys making havoc in the Heavenly Palace, is even more exciting among the folks.

But what does this have to do with Emperor Chongzhen bringing the two of himself together?

Seeing the weird faces of the two, Emperor Chongzhen laughed and said, "Both of you know Haotian God and Jade Emperor?"

This matter obviously has nothing to do with other people's Buddhism. Could it be that the other shore Haikuan jumped out and said that it was the Tathagata Buddha who went to heaven to save him, so the Tathagata Buddha is the most awesome?

Bi'an Haikuan felt that he was not that stupid.

The Son of Heaven in the Central Plains has always been revered as the Son of Heaven, and the Tathagata Buddha of the West went to save Yupang?Isn't this funny what is it?

Even Bian Haikuan has to admit that in Journey to the West, the Tathagata Buddha went there under the order of the Jade Emperor. .

Zhang Xianyong cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, first there was the Haotian God, and then there was the Jade Emperor, but up to now, the people have long been unable to distinguish who comes first, and even think that the two emperors are one person."

Emperor Chongzhen hummed and said: "I also know about this matter. There are too many immortals, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in my Taoist school of Buddhism. Even in Journey to the West and Romance of the Gods, there are many similarities but completely different , Therefore, I want to determine its origin."

Zhang Xianyong and Bi'an Haikuan exchanged glances quietly.

Determine its origin?How to decide?To put it bluntly, it is not determined who is the boss and who is the second child, and who should obey whose management?

But Taoism and Buddhism are two different things, and it’s okay to say their own reasons. If they are forcibly kneaded together, who will be respected at that time?

Emperor Chongzhen didn't seem to notice the small movements of the two, but continued: "So, I wonder if we can unify?"

At this time, Zhang Xianyong and Bi'an Haikuan felt that the image of Emperor Chongzhen was so tall that he even surpassed the first emperor.

Qin Shihuang just wanted to unify the weights and measures of the six countries' characters. When you come to you, you want to unify the gods?

After struggling for a while, Zhang Xianyong remembered that what Emperor Chongzhen had just said was Taoism and Buddhism, not Buddhism.

There is a difference between Taoism and Buddhism, but the status in Emperor Chongzhen's heart is thousands of miles away.

Especially when the words "Buddha and Tao" are easier to pronounce than the words "Tao and Buddha".

This shows that Emperor Chongzhen's heart is towards our sect!

In the spirit of taking advantage and not taking advantage of the bastard, Zhang Xianyong said before the monk from the other side Kuanhai who also reacted: "Your Majesty is wise!"

The other shore Kuanhai originally wanted to do the opposite, but Zhang Xianyong had already clearly expressed his approval, and all he could do now was to maximize the benefits for the Buddhist sect—or would he insist on the emperor's will and wait for the Shaolin Temple to be burned?

Don't think that vultures are the only ones who dare to do this. Xu Xianchun, who has the title of Living Hades in Daming, is probably even more vicious than vultures when he does this kind of thing.

The great monk Kuanhai on the other side, who didn't want the Buddhism to be destroyed, had no choice but to bow down and say: "Your Majesty is wise. Originally, there were quite a lot of gods and Buddhas in the gods and Buddhas, and the occupations among them were even more chaotic. If they were unified, there would be many benefits." .”

Zhang Xianyong continued: "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, the gods and Buddhas of the heavens are naturally respected by the three Qing emperors, but I don't know who is under them?"

Zhang Xianyong's words stumped Emperor Chongzhen.

According to what Zhang Xianyong said, the Jade Emperor and Sanqing are almost at the same level, but how about going down?Four emperors?Liu Yu?Five parties and five elders?Six Ding Liujia?Uncover the truth in all directions?

There are so many fucking things, it's too messy, and it doesn't seem to be possible if they are not unified.

Emperor Chongzhen thought about it, and found out that it is Daming anyway, so I changed "Buddha is the Way", at worst, I will copy all the prehistoric stories from the starting point. Can you still come to Daming to ask me for copyright fees?

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "Let's talk slowly.

First there is Hongmeng and then there is heaven, and Pangu is even before the opening of heaven.

What I mean is that there was Hongmeng first, and Hongmeng evolved into chaos, and Pangu and the three thousand innate demon gods were born.

Pangu opened the sky and died, his essence turned into Sanqing, his essence and blood turned into the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and his brain turned into the Jade Emperor God.

Because of the legacy of Pangu's opening of the sky, all the demon gods and the ancestor witches of the Three Qing Dynasty are willing to enshrine the Jade Emperor's amulet.

Among the congenital demon gods, Nuwa created human beings, Fuxi taught and transformed the world, and the three Qings established their own religions to pass down the orthodoxy.

Only because after the Jade Emperor was reincarnated and ascended to immortality, the Heavenly Court had no manpower available, so the Three Religions and Three Merchants were awarded the list of gods.

It was only after the Western religion competed with the three religions that Laozi went out and turned Hu into a Buddha, and the Western religion was changed to Buddhism. "

After talking nonsense for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen found that what he said was actually messy and basically unsystematic, and he couldn't help secretly resenting that he didn't memorize "Buddha is the Way" well, and he also memorized a few more copies masterpiece.

Nowadays, it is true that when the book is used, I hate less.

After thinking about it for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen simply pointed to Duan Xiaorong who had been standing beside him without speaking, and said, "Master Zhang Tianshi and the great monk can discuss it with Duan Xiaorong later. Let the common people know exactly who is sacred.”

After thinking for a while, Emperor Chongzhen then added: "Also, the Jade Emperor has incarnations in thousands, and the God mentioned by the barbarians in the west is one of the incarnations of the Jade Emperor."

Only then did Zhang Xianyong and Bi'an Haikuan figure out what Emperor Chongzhen was thinking.
