Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 56
Kumarajiva.

His father, Kumarajiva, was born in a prominent family in India, and later went to Kucha to give birth to Kumarajiva.Kumarajiva became a monk with his mother at the age of seven, and first learned the Hinayana Buddhism. Later, when he went to Kubin and Shale, he met a famous Mahayana monk in the Shache Kingdom and changed to Mahayana Buddhism.He read the Mahayana scriptures extensively and was well-known in the Western Regions.

Later, in the third year of Emperor Hongshi of the Later Qin Dynasty (401), Emperor Yao Xing of the Later Qin Dynasty attacked Houliang, welcomed Kumarajiva into Chang'an in person, and treated him as a national teacher.

In these years after the Qin Dynasty, Kumarajiva translated the "Dapin Prajna Sutra", "Miaofa Lotus Sutra", "Vimalakirti Sutra", "Amitabha Sutra", "Diamond Sutra" and other scriptures and "Zhonglun ", "Hundred Treatises", "Twelve Gates Theory", "Great Wisdom Theory", "Chengshi Theory" and other theories, these scriptures translated for Buddhism have become an important theoretical basis for Buddhism to gain a foothold in China in the future.

In addition, Kumarajiva had many disciples, including Dao Sheng, Seng Zhao, Seng Rui, Dao Heng, and Tan Ying, who were later called the Four Sages, Eight Talents, and Ten Sages of Buddhism.

This gave him a title - the ancestor of the eight schools of Chinese Buddhism.

Liu Yizhen couldn't help but twitch his lips.

He almost forgot that Guanzhong Chang'an was the practice field of this "Buddha".

If this case involved Kumarajiva, then things would be a little tricky.

Although this person has passed away, his disciples and grandchildren are still there.

The consequence of direct action is that Liu Yizhen will instantly become a public enemy of Buddhism.

Liu Yizhen simply closed his eyes and began to think.

This made both Pei Fangming and Du Ji puzzled.

After a while, Liu Yizhen opened his eyes: "Don't worry about it, just lead the troops there!"

Public enemies of Buddhism are public enemies of Buddhism.

Didn't the saints say it?
A man who is praised by all is like a man who is praised by good men and slandered by bad men.

In Liu Yizhen's eyes, Buddhism is a bad person through and through.

Is it too contemptuous to fight against it?

Don't you see how Qin Shihuang's rigid Confucianism was hacked?But will history deny Shi Huangdi's achievements through the ages?

In addition, those emperors of the Ming Dynasty who were tough and tough to the Donglin Party were even scolded by people pointing their spines. Didn't they also be rehabilitated later?On the contrary, the reputation of the Donglin Party in later generations is really stink.

Liu Yizhen does not reject religion, but there is a premise——

It cannot affect the development of the country and the rise of the nation.

Otherwise, they are all cults, and hammering them all to death is the kingly way.

Liu Yizhen may struggle for a long time when deciding on a matter, but once he decides, he will use all means of thunder.

Under Liu Yizhen's instruction, the army quickly surrounded a Buddhist temple where the incident occurred.

No accidents.

This place is called "Great Temple".

It later had another name called "Caotang Temple".

It is here that Kumarajiva translated the "Three Treatises on Madhyamaka", namely "Middle View", "Hundred Treatises" and "Twelve Gate Treatises".Later, Caotang Temple was revered as the ancestral court by the Sanlun School of Chinese Buddhism, the Huayan School and the Nichiren School of Japanese Buddhism.

This is no longer related to Kumarajiva, this is completely to break ground on Kumarajiva's head.

The monks in the temple showed panic when they saw the government army, and ran to the temple in a hurry.

And Liu Yizhen wasn't in a hurry, instead he started to observe the Buddhist temple carefully.

I saw that the gate of the temple faces south, and looking up is the gate of the Buddhist temple.

The sunlight scattered in the Buddhist temple illuminated the emerald green bamboo forest, and there was a faint mist in the mountains, and several halls were also located in these mountains, and it really felt like Zen was hidden in it.

In addition, there is a square platform on the mountain, on which a stupa is enshrined.

That is the Kumarajiva Stupa.

The stupa is exquisitely carved and has a jade-like color. It is inlaid with jade and marble carvings of eight different colors: jade white, brick blue, ink ink, cream yellow, light red, light blue, ocher purple and gray. It is called "Eight Treasures Jade Pagoda".The Vajra Seat below is composed of Mount Sumeru, Perfume Sea and three-layer cloud platform, which symbolizes the meaning of "King Kong is not bad".This Vajra Seat has eight sides and twelve layers, the bottom layer is a square seat, and above it is a round platform, and several mountains are engraved on the top of the round platform, which symbolizes Mount Sumeru in Buddhism.Above the round platform is an overlapping three-layer cloud platform, engraved with cloud relief, which is exquisite and unusual.Above the cloud platform is an octagonal niche.The upper part of the niche is covered with a ridge shape, and under the cover there are incised supporting figures, and the cover is also covered with multiple layers of orbs.

Looking at the luxurious stupa, Liu Yizhen didn't have much admiration, but was full of resistance.

Who knows how much national power it took to repair such a broken thing that the dead live in?
If the imperial family of the later Qin Dynasty spent less money on building Buddhist temples and pagodas, they would spend more on improving people's livelihood and supporting the army.Maybe Liu Yu can't beat Guanzhong yet.

I'll dismantle it for you as soon as I get up there!

Just as Liu Yizhen was thinking about how to dismantle the stupa, many monks in the Buddhist temple came out surrounded by a monk with white beard and hair.

With the old monk walking out, those monks who were still flustered before were extraordinarily calm at this moment.

It can be seen that this old monk should be the person in charge here.

"Poor monk and monk guide, I don't know why Guiyang Gong came to my Buddhist temple today?"

Monk guide?

Upon hearing the other party's name, Liu Yizhen's face turned green.

Finished!

Violence cannot be used.

Because this monk...

It has something to do with Liu Yu!

After Liu Yu's demise, Queen Qin also came here to meet the monk guide, and had a long conversation with the monk guide.

Later, when Liu Yudong returned, he also asked the monk guide to take care of Liu Yizhen one or two.

Historically, when Liu Yizhen escaped from Guanzhong alone in a hurry, the monk leader led his disciples to stop Helian Bobo's pursuers, so that Liu Yizhen escaped safely...

What's the matter!
Now Liu Yizhen's aura of wanting to destroy the opponent suddenly weakened by eight points.

Although he hates Buddhism, this monk guide is the person who is talking to Liu Yu after all, and he is considered to be a senior figure of Liu Yizhen.

Coupled with the fact that people did save him in history, from the point of view of Buddhism, it can be regarded as "cause and effect", Liu Yizhen is not cruel enough to directly attack the savior.

Now Liu Yizhen doubts whether Wang Xiu knew that the monk guide was behind this, so he gave him this hot potato.

wrong……

In fact, Wang Xiu thought it would be very simple to solve this matter. With his ability, he could handle this kind of matter with ease.So he should have deliberately involved Liu Yizhen.

Liu Yizhen began to doubt whether Wang Xiu withheld the dossier by accident or on purpose.

This should be the "best topic" that Wang Xiu helped Liu Yizhen pick out from thousands of government affairs in Guanzhong.

Liu Yizhen scratched his head, feeling that he was being beaten to death by Wang Xiukeng.

Didn't he just eat a chicken from him!As for?
But right now we still have to deal with things first.

Those who play martial arts can't do it anymore, they can only send texts.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Yizhen turned around and looked at Du Ji pretending to be dissatisfied.

"Master Du! I'm here to discuss Buddhism with Master Seng Dao. Why do you bring so many soldiers here? So mobilize so many troops to let others know what to think of me? Why don't you send the soldiers back quickly?"

Du Ji: "???"

Mr. Guiyang, I have something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not!
