Start with detective Li Yuanfang

"Kill! Kill all these bald donkeys who lead the way for the Yan people!" "No way! No way!!"

Wanyan Wu begged for money to stop his furious elder brother, pleading bitterly.

Wanyan Aguda's face turned livid: "It is precisely because of your scruples who believe in Buddhism and thieves that I didn't destroy Buddha early. If they hadn't led the way now, how could Tokyo Road fall so quickly?"

Wanyan Wu Qimai hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Yan army caught us off guard just by relying on the strength of their ships and guns. Dongdong Dao can be taken back, and the punishment should be to punish those temple rebels. The Buddhist belief is deeply rooted and cannot be destroyed. The actions of the Buddha have shaken the foundation of the country!"

Wanyan Aguda shook his head: "I can't take it back. I thought that the heavy armored cavalry of the "Iron Buddha" was the strongest unit of the Yan army. I didn't expect there to be huge ships and artillery. The heavy armored cavalry can be armed even in Jin Kingdom. How to imitate it with a cannon?"

Wanyan Wu Qimai analyzed: "When Yanjing fell, it was this kind of artillery that bombarded the city wall, and Yelu Dezhong was forced to leave the city for a decisive battle, so he was defeated by Emperor Yan. But since then, the Yan army has never used it again. Artillery, maybe this thing is harsh to use and cannot be used in actual combat, the Yan army is just bluffing!"

Wanyan Agu said: "Perhaps it was really harsh back then, Yelude was defeated all the way by the Emperor Yan, and became a frightened bird. Before he could distinguish, he hurried out to fight."

"But now that Emperor Yan already has thousands of miles of fertile land in the Central Plains, and countless skilled craftsmen, how can we not make artillery truly a weapon in actual combat? Now they have captured Kaesong with artillery fire and immediately won the support of the local people. This also proves that we have always been in Korea. Unpopular, all suppressed by military force!"

"Now that the sixth brother is killed and Lou Shi is seriously injured, the two of them are the ones who destroyed Goryeo. How can they come back there? It's really too difficult to rule."

Hearing this man's murmur, Wanyan Wu Qimai's nose was sour, and she was almost in tears.It took two and a half months to destroy the country, and the rule was indefinite, which is the best summary of Jurchen in Korea.

After several years of hard work, once the dynasty was ruined, it is now in the pocket of Yan State. In view of the fact that the Goryeo uprising army had betrayed Yan Ting before, the Great Yan Emperor might not allow Goryeo to restore the country, and directly included it in the territory. Back to the time of the Han Dynasty.

After working for a long time, they made wedding clothes for the country of Yan.

That's all for nothing, what saddens the two most powerful rulers of the Jin Kingdom is that the national policy they set is over.

The Kingdom of Jin is too poor, and the taxation, food and grass on the Korean Peninsula are treasures, which cannot be lost. After discussing with Wanyan Wu, they decided that the next plan for strengthening the country is to mobilize manpower in Liaodong, reclaim wasteland, and let the people of the Jin Kingdom The nature is on par with that of the Liao Dynasty, developing from nomadic to semi-nomadic and semi-agricultural.

Of course, Wanyan Aguda doesn’t have such professional academic terms, he just knows that when the Yan Kingdom is building the Great Wall on the border, if the people outside the Great Wall want to survive, they must have farmland, stable rice production, and resistance to natural disasters. Only by grasping the lifeline of food can we control all ethnic groups and make them firmly unite with the Jurchen clan.

But this national policy has just been enacted, and the Korean peninsula is gone without even appointing personnel to reclaim wasteland.

Wanyan Aguda said sadly: "My country of Jin is poor, and I don't have enough money to build the capital. I originally wanted to build the capital on the banks of the Jinshui River, the land of my ancestors, but I still want to focus on farming, but let's not talk about farming now. Liaodong is in danger of falling!"

Wanyan Wu begged to change color: "How could this be?"

Wanyan Agu said: "Why not? In the battle of Liaoyang in the past, the Yan army went on an expedition all the way from Shanhaiguan. The supply line was so long that it lasted for a full year. Later, I was forced to rush to destroy Liao before returning to the army. Return to court."

"Now that they have stabilized the old land of Koryo, they can reach Liaoyang in a day's march. Food, grass and supplies will be sent in by water first, and then supplied to the former army soldiers. They will gradually advance and overhaul the fortress. You have to tell me how to defend Liaodong? Once Liaodong was lost, they built the Great Wall, and they can threaten to go to Beijing at any time, and my Jin people will fall to the country in ten years!"

"The situation is like this. Are you still afraid of the influence of Buddhism among the people, and you don't want to destroy it first? It will not be destroyed now. Once the Buddhism of Goryeo and the Buddhism of the former Liao region are colluded to incite public opinion, it will last for three years, let alone ten years." not!"

Wanyan Wu Qimai was finally speechless, and said after a moment: "Your Majesty's intention is to use Taoism to replace Buddha.
"

Wanyan Agu said: "That's right, there are quite a few Taoist temples in Jin's country. As long as Jinting supports them, why can't they be replaced?"

It is certain that the belief in Taoism is not as popular as Buddhism, but it is only relatively speaking. Let alone the Taoist temples in the Central Plains, there are many Taoist believers in the Liao Kingdom.

For example, there is Tianchang Temple in Shangjing, Tongtian Temple in Zhongjing, and Taoist priests and Taoist temples in Zhoucheng. In the past, many upper-class nobles in Khitan also believed in Taoism.

Shengzong of the Liao Dynasty understood the purpose of "both Taoism and Buddhism." His younger brother Yelu Longyu, who was passed down as the illegitimate son of Empress Dowager Xiao and Han Derang according to the notes of Song Dynasty literati, was a devout Taoist believer.So handed down through the ages, Taoism does have a certain soil of belief.

Wanyan Aguda raised Lin Lingsu's status and promised to make the Shenxiao Sect the state religion, and he also took this into consideration.

If it was a small religion with no foundation at all, he would not be forced to promote it to the state religion. It is precisely because of its certain influence, but the influence is not large, and the imperial court elevates its status. The two sides will naturally combine interests and help each other.This idea can't be wrong, it can only be said that he doesn't understand Lin Lingsu.

I don't understand whether this person is suppressing Buddhism because Taoism is dominant in the Jin Kingdom, or because he is suppressing Buddhism.

In any case, Wanyan Aguda's authority in the Kingdom of Jin can be said to be as good as his words. When the emperor was angry, a bloody storm first broke out in Shangjing.

In the southeast of the inner city, in front of Tianxiong Temple, groups of golden soldiers quickly arrived and surrounded it.

The status of this monastery is very special. The Khitan people originally did not have Buddhist beliefs. It was not until the founding monarch Yelu Abaoji unified the neighboring tribes, expanded the economic strategy, and intended to absorb the culture of the inland and recruit the Han people that he planned to build a Buddhist temple.Tianxiong Temple is the first recorded Buddhist temple. Fifty people, including the local monk Chongwen, migrated to the capital city when Emperor Taizu of the Liao Dynasty captured the Bohai Sea. They built a temple to promote Buddhism.

It can only be said that he is worthy of being a Khitan person, and it is necessary to rob to prosper the Buddha. The Taizu of the Liao Dynasty often went to Buddhist temples to worship, and held prayers, recommendation, dinner and other Buddhist events. It was gradually popular among the court nobles.

Therefore, in this Tianxiong Temple, the portrait of Emperor Anlie Kaoxuanjian is still enshrined. Its status is similar to that of Daxiangguo Temple in Bianjing, and it is a royal temple.

Of course, after the Kingdom of Jin destroyed the Liao Dynasty, temples dedicated to the portraits of the monarchs of the Liao Kingdom were undoubtedly more sensitive. After confirming that Wanyan Aguda had no good impression of Buddhism, Tianxiong Temple has kept a low profile in recent years and tried not to attract attention from the higher-ups. attention.

However, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop. Buddhism is too prevalent in the Liao Kingdom. Even if it intends to keep a low profile, the pilgrims of Tianxiong Temple are still in an endless stream. When the dynasty is changing, people are confused and need the stability of their beliefs. Close the temple to reduce the number of believers offering incense.

Today is when the monastery is closed. Hearing movement from outside, a monk opened the door in surprise. The situation in front of the monastery made his white face look blank: "Amitabha, all benefactors!!"

The leader, Wanyan Tarlan, pulled out his waist knife and slashed it down without saying a word. Seeing the blood gushing out from the monk's neck, showing a cruel look, he shouted: "Your Majesty has an order to wipe out all the Buddhist thieves and traitors. Give this general Surround them, and never allow a thief to escape and report the news!"

"Yes!"

Jin Bing pulled out his waist knife and rushed in murderously.

Hearing the screams in the monastery, the complexions of the people outside changed drastically, and they summoned up the courage to come forward with pious faith: "Mr. Jun, how can you do such a wicked thing in the pure place of Buddhism, the Buddha will... ah!!"

What greeted them was the butcher knife of Jin Bing.Dissatisfied?
Cut off with a sharp blade, and soon there will be no dissatisfaction!

"Ah—forgive me—ah—!!"
Although he didn't hear the screams in the capital one after another with his own ears, Wanyan Wu's face was pale when he returned to the mansion to beg for money.

He walked into the ancestral hall, looked at the golden Buddha enshrined in the hall, slowly knelt down on the futon, and clasped his hands together: "Dajin cannot be protected by the Buddha now. I hope the Buddha will be merciful and don't punish me. In the future, when I succeed to the throne, I will be determined." Invite the Buddha back, worship devoutly, and save the people!"

After all, he kowtowed in front of the Buddha statue.

Compared to this one, in the specially built Taoist temple next to the palace, Wanyan Aguda lit a stick of incense in the incense burner and sat on the futon.

Lift the left foot to the root of the right thigh first

The soles of the feet face the sky, and then pull the right foot to the root of the left thigh, so that the hearts of the feet face the sky, and at the same time, the palms face the sky, naturally placed on the legs, and the Baihui point on the top of the head is regarded as the center of the head, which naturally faces the sky.

This is the method of meditation with the five hearts facing the sky. With the circulation of breath, the anxiety on Wanyan Aguda's face gradually dissipated, and was replaced by a touch of tranquility.

He hoped to learn Lei Fa from Lin Lingsu, so that he would no longer be afraid of being assassinated by "Zuo Ming". Lin Lingsu asked for tranquility and long-distance, indifferent and inactive adjustments.

But after sitting in meditation for a full hour, the incense had already burned out. Normally, Lin Lingsu was reminded that she would return quickly, but this time she was nowhere to be seen.

Wanyan Aguda frowned slightly, and summoned the guards of the imperial army: "Go to Beijing Zhongtian Changguan and see if Daochang Lin is there!"

The imperial guards returned soon, but the news of the report broke the golden emperor's calm and indifferent state of mind in an instant: "Let's not talk about Daoist Lin, the entire Taoist temple is empty? Go after them and bring them all back!"

Outside the capital, Lin Lingsu smiled lightly and left with a flick of his sleeves.Barbarians are stupid.

You really destroyed the Buddha, how could the Daoist accompany you?

You're done, Huiyan will return to the Supreme!
