Journey to the West: The opening angrily denounced Li Shimin for welcoming the Buddha's bones!

Chapter 9 Shocking Wei Zheng, Confucianism and Taoism

"My lord, you are here..."

As soon as Wei Zheng's carriage stopped, a servant rushed over and helped Wei Zheng get off the carriage.

"Is Dean Kong okay?"

When Wei Zheng got out of the car, the first thing he did was to ask Kong Fan about his condition.

Hearing Wei Zheng's inquiry, the guard quickly said:

"My lord, Dean Kong is very good here, we all give Dean Kong the best conditions, but..."

Hearing what the guard said, Wei Zheng frowned.

"But what!"

The guard lowered his eyes and said hesitantly:

"My lord doesn't know, everything was fine a few days before Dean Kong came here, but..."

But... just last night, someone below said that a white streamer was seen flying out of Dean Kong's cell, and the place where the streamer flew was the palace...

Then news of His Majesty's death came this morning, and now everyone in the prison is guessing whether it is Dean Kong..."

Hearing the suspicious words in front of him, Wei Zheng's heart sank, and he immediately scolded:
"Nonsense! No one is allowed to mention this matter again. If anyone dares to slander the dean, he will be punished with three hundred rods and sent to the frontier! Never return!"

The guard was so frightened that he quickly knelt down.

"Understood, my lord, I will teach those bastards a lesson one by one!"

Wei Zheng waved his hand and said, "There is no rush, take me to see the dean first!"

"Yes! Your lord!"

……

Through the dark corridor, Wei Zheng came to the deepest part of the dungeon.

it's here,
Generally, only the most heinous people will be imprisoned here.

But the weird thing is,

When Wei Zheng came here last time, the screams of the prisoners could often be heard in the surrounding cells.

Today, however, everything is quiet.

Thinking of this, Wei Zheng couldn't help but feel confused...

With the sound of an iron door twisting, Wei Zheng pushed open the cell door in front of him and stepped in.

However, the scene in front of him shocked him.

I saw that the originally dark and oppressive dungeon was filled with warm white light at this moment.

on the wall,
The wanton words are shining with white light.

Wei Zheng could feel,
There is a familiar existence in this text, which is the righteousness between heaven and earth!
this moment,
Wei Zheng was extremely sure that the dean who could write such words would definitely not be the murderer who caused His Majesty's death!

Thinking of this, Wei Zheng relaxed,

Wei Zheng didn't disturb Kong Fan who was sitting cross-legged, but carefully browsed the content on the wall.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, Wei Zheng took a breath when he saw it.

I saw that it said:

Heaven and earth have righteousness, mixed with manifolds,
The lower part is Heyue, and the upper part is the sun star.

……

"Heaven and earth have righteousness, heaven and earth have righteousness..."

While meditating, Wei Zheng suddenly felt a surge of air in his chest.

Wei Zheng suddenly realized.

The content on this wall turned out to be the method of practice!

And this method of practice is actually different from Buddha and Tao!But a new avenue!
In Datang, there has always been an unwritten rule.

That is, anyone who practices Shinto or Buddhism is not allowed to be a top-ranking official.

Even Li Shimin, after knowing that Buddhism and Taoism have many methods that can prolong life, did not worship any of them.

The root reason is that Li Shimin, who is the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, does not allow himself to be subordinated to others.

Because, whether he worships Taoism or Buddhism, Li Shimin will be surrounded by others, and this is unacceptable to any emperor!
Therefore, Wei Zheng knew that such a cultivation system that does not belong to gods and Buddhas would cause a huge wave of shocking once it appeared in the Tang Dynasty!
How many officials from academies in the imperial court, especially those civil and military officials who are getting old and are about to return home, will be crazy!

When Wei Zheng was in a trance.

The awe-inspiring righteousness in his chest is also slowly taking shape.

And the reason why it is so fast.

It's all thanks to Wei Zheng's hatred of evil and justice in his heart.

"Prime Minister Wei, you are here..."

Kong Fan's voice sounded in Wei Zheng's ear, and Wei Zheng quickly stopped his thoughts and looked at Kong Fan.

"Dean, why do you..."

At this moment, Wei Zheng, who already had great righteousness in his body, found that the world in front of him had become a little different.

However, what surprised him was the dean in front of him!

In Wei Zheng's eyes, Kong Fan at this moment is like a great sun!
If it is said that Wei Zheng's aura of righteousness in his body is only a strand like a thread, then the aura of righteousness in Kong Fan's body in front of him is like a stream, rushing endlessly!

"I already know about the things in the palace!"

Seeing Wei Zheng's blank expression, Kong Fan didn't realize that Wei Zheng in front of him had also cultivated righteousness.

And also got a glimpse of his current strength.

"Dean, please save Your Majesty!"

Seeing Wei Zheng bowing his hands, Kong Fan just shook his head and said: "Your Majesty is fine, and in a few days, he will return from the underworld!"

Hearing that His Majesty is not dead, Wei Zheng's face revealed a look of joy.

But what Kong Fan said next made Wei Zheng serious.

"After His Majesty returns from the underworld, I'm afraid he will vigorously promote Buddhism, and at that time, it may be a disaster for the entire Tang Dynasty!"

"So, Prime Minister Wei, please help me to spread the Confucian cultivation system I created throughout the Tang Dynasty!"

Wei Zheng looked at Kong Fan in front of him, and bowed without hesitation.

"Listen to the dean's orders!"

So, after Wei Zheng left, he immediately returned to the court to inform everyone that His Majesty was still alive,
Then discuss secretly with the gathered civil and military officials.

After this discussion, a Confucian practice book was distributed layer by layer to various academies and yamen of the Tang Dynasty through the imperial court.

And all of this is happening in secret.

……

On the border of Datang, violent explosions sounded in the air one after another.

Countless air waves echoed in the air like rings of rings.

Every Buddha showed a tired look on his face. They couldn't break this seal!

It's not the result of their lack of effort, but the level of this power far exceeds their strength, making them helpless.

"Bodhisattva, there is news from the underworld..."

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said that Li Shimin's soul was not crushed by the Jinghe Dragon King, and Li Shimin has already arrived at the underworld!"

Hearing this news, the frowning Guanyin Bodhisattva slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Tang Wang is not dead.

However, Guanyin Bodhisattva was still helpless when he saw the barrier.

As long as the barrier exists for one day, their Buddhism will not be able to enter the entire Tang Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Guanyin Bodhisattva clenched her teeth.

He actually stepped into the barrier in front of him on his own initiative, just like the Arhat who crouched on the tiger before.

"Bodhisattva, no!"

The Buddha on the side wanted to stop after seeing Guanyin Bodhisattva's movements, but it was too late.

However, Guanyin Bodhisattva left a last word before entering.

"Don't be worried, everyone. This is the avatar of the poor nun. The poor nun first enlightened the Tang monk and helped him learn the scriptures. Please return to the Buddhist kingdom quickly and tell Manjusri Bodhisattva that Journey to the West is about to start. Please wake up the Buddha!"

After all, Guanyin Bodhisattva disappeared before the eyes of all the Buddhas.

Seeing that the Bodhisattva disappeared, all the Buddhas looked at each other, and all of them disappeared into the void.
