Suffer less?

Sun Simiao thought of a terrible thing and asked Li Mingda in a panic: "Does the princess want to destroy my Taoism?"

What a joke

How can it be

It just accelerated the slow annexation process.

Li Mingda shook his head and explained to the frightened Sun Simiao: "Sooner or later, religion will be included in the management of the court."

Sun Simiao: "The court is already in charge."

Li Mingda: "The management of the court is somewhat different from the management I mentioned. It involves cleaning up all the Taoist temples and temples in the world, checking the population, fields, and property, and confiscating some lawbreakers and things that don't belong to them."

"The temple's fields do not pay taxes. Some people hang their own fields under the temple and hand over the taxes that should be paid to the temple. There are also huge amounts of sesame oil money. What do some monks want money for?"

"And they also use the money to lend money, which is not what monks should be like, and there are even Taoist temples that cover up and engage in illegal business."

"There are also people who cheat people out of money and harm people's lives. In the future, all Taoist priests and monks will have to take the unified Taoist and Buddhist exams, and those who fail will be eliminated."

"Those who should return to the secular world should return to secular life, and those who should serve their sentences should serve their sentences. In the future, the number of people in the temple will be determined according to the size of the temple. It cannot be more or less. Servants and huge donations are not allowed."

"If you really want to do good deeds, Datang will naturally have a place for them to contribute. It will save some countries' money and materials from being wasted, and it will also prevent some people from causing trouble on the grounds of Buddhist and Taoist beliefs."

"The future of the Tang Dynasty needs positive thoughts, rather than squatting there and fantasizing about how to live a good life in the next life, or saying I regret killing people and taking their lives and saying I regret it. I should eat and drink." He will drink for the rest of his life, leaving the families of those victims with nowhere to redress their grievances at home."

"The large Buddha statues in some temples that are covered with gold and silver are completely extravagant and wasteful. They say how much gold and silver they want for Liugan Jingjing. It is all for their own illusory vanity. Real gods don't care about the little money among the people. You can't say a few nonsense words to get rid of the bad consequences of sitting down."

Sun Simiao was confused after hearing this. It took him a long time to react and nodded in agreement: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is right. These are all facts. But if Her Royal Highness acts rashly, will it cause trouble?"

king's contempt

(￣_,￣)

"To make trouble, I, the Hengdao of the Tang Dynasty, am not a vegetarian. No matter how troublesome it is, I will just serve it in one pot and give the world a peaceful world. Later, some people will talk about good deeds and release chaos, throwing out some harmful things and destroying the original For the creatures living in the Efang area, this is not releasing them to do good deeds, but killing local species. Some may even be exterminated by these random things."

Sun Simiao had no idea what the snapping turtles, piranhas and scavengers were that those people released into the river after the funeral. Others released hundreds of foxes outside other people's villages and killed many of their chickens, ducks and geese. things.

The quality of the people responsible for the funeral and the work of popularizing the law have made everyone civilized a lot. If it were the Tang Dynasty now, if someone did this, they would definitely be chopped into pieces.

“When does Her Royal Highness intend to carry out this policy?”

Li Mingda: "Didn't I say it will take about three years? I am still too busy to do anything. However, if Taoism is willing to be included in the Mingzun Holy Sect, the speed will naturally be much faster. It can be done in less than 2 years." "

Sun Simiao thought for a moment. Although he was obsessed with medicine, he was still very concerned about the future of Taoism. He was keenly aware of this opportunity. If he could not seize it, Taoism in the future might be gradually annexed by the Mingzun Holy Sect.

After thinking about it, Sun Simiao asked Li Mingda: "I dare to ask the princess if I, the Taoist, join the Mingzun Holy Sect, what should I do and what are the conditions? Will it be beneficial to Taoism?"

I'm tempted,

In this case, we simply negotiated directly: "If you join the Mingzun Holy Sect, you will be given corresponding independent rights. However, if you must participate in religious sacrificial activities, you cannot participate in the position of the chief leader of the Mingzun Holy Sect.

The election can only be conducted within the sect, and the corresponding Mingzun Holy Sect will not interfere in the handover of rights within the Taoist religion."

"These are all under the premise that any form of rebellion and refutation of the existence of religious beliefs is not allowed, and the normal recruitment of religious personnel must be accepted, and the corresponding religion will give corresponding money."

The conditions mentioned by Li Mingda were very reasonable. After listening to this, Sun Simiao nodded again: "The old Taoist sounds like these are real conditions. I will suspend the letter and let my master brother come to Chang'an."

Li Mingda nodded: "Since the other party is coming, it will be easy. I will call Zhang Qing and others to talk to you then. Don't worry about the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism. I will help you then. Besides, we will check the property."

I will also be open-minded to Taoism when I am a child, and I will be lenient to you when it comes to things like ultimatums.

"Of course there are requirements. Regarding some messy things like making alchemy in some movies, you should clean it up for me in the future. If random orders are spread to the palace and cause trouble, don't blame me for being rude. I will be implicated when the time comes.

Everyone must die”

There was a strong murderous aura in his words, and Sun Simiao felt that the person in front of him was not a young princess, but the aura of a murderer who had been fighting on the battlefield for many years.

Sun Simiao squinted his eyes to look at Li Mingda, and found that at that moment he seemed to see a tall and mighty shadow flashing past Li Mingda.

Sun Simiao rubbed his eyes and looked back again to find that it was still gone. Maybe he was dazzled after not sleeping at home all night. After all, he was older and couldn't bear it any longer.

Seeing Sun Simiao's strange behavior, Li Mingda asked him: "Master Sun, what's wrong with you?"

Sun Simiao: "Perhaps I feel sleepy after not having a rest all night. It's hard to accept old age. I'm obviously not as energetic as in previous years."

Li Mingda: "That's why you should seize the time now to prepare to teach apprentices. Spread all your knowledge to benefit future generations. It will definitely leave a strong mark in history. Even if there are gods, you will ascend or something."

There are greater merits waiting for you."

Sun Simiao's heart beat loudly when he said this. He who joined the religion at a young age had a little bit of belief in his meritorious deeds. This was not his original intention, but a subconscious reaction in his brain that had been influenced by his ears and eyes at a young age.

Human nature

Li Mingda looked at Sun Simiao: "After Sun Daozhang finished writing the letter, why not take a rest? The body is the capital of the revolution. As long as you have a good body, you can do more things, right?"

Sun Simiao: "Your Highness the Princess is right. I will write a letter to the Master Brother now."

Sun Simiao began to write and Li Mingda stood up and left. As for the content of the letter, Li Mingda did not intend to read it. No matter what happened, he would not be able to escape his preparations, so he might as well be more generous.
