The countries in the four directions, the three countries in the east, and even the Northern Yuan Dynasty have always had religions.
This religion can be roughly divided into two types, Taoism and Buddhism.
In countries far away from the Northern Yuan Dynasty, such as Nanliang and Chen, the people in them all believe in Buddhism.
In countries separated from the Northern Yuan Dynasty, such as Daqian, Dachu, Jin, and Western Qin, the people among them mainly believed in Taoism.
Beiyuan is different. They used to have scattered beliefs and worshiped their respective tribal totems.
But since Tuoba Khan unified the grasslands, they...believe in Tuoba Khan!
This is the horror of Tuoba Khan. Although the grassland tribes and tribes are the same race, the gap still exists.
Even if he was good at fighting and leveled the grassland in just a few years, it would still be difficult to eliminate this barrier.
This is a cultural difference and a collision of ideas that cannot be resolved simply by force.
So, he molded himself into faith!
In the long run, as long as he does not die, the various tribes in Beiyuan will inevitably become more united and their combat power will become stronger.
However, unprecedented practices like his are still very rare.
At least the religions in Daqian are well behaved, with Taoism being the mainstay.
Among all the Taoist sects, Tianyi Sect is respected!
Tianyi Sect took root in Qiandu City, and continued to spread to the four prefectures with Qiandu City as the center.
Temples are widely built and incense is flourishing.
Moreover, the Tianyi Sect believed in Emperor Zhenwu and focused on passing down scriptures to the world and cultivating one's moral character.
He rarely engages in mysterious sects like alchemy and immortality, so he can be tolerated by the court and continue to flourish and shine.
That day, Wugong Mountain, Tianyi Sect, was in the lecture hall.
Tianyi Sect is famous for its Taoist scriptures, so it often holds lectures on scriptures to promote Taoist ideas.
Today is the day when Tianyi Sect opens its forum for lectures!
Early in the morning, the huge lecture hall was filled with people.
Among the pilgrims, they were also whispering and talking about sex.
"Brother, who is here to give lectures today?"
"I just came today, so I didn't know about it."
"But I heard that the current leader of the Tianyi Sect is the Master of the Propaganda Confucianism who was granted the title of Emperor of the Imperial Court!"
"If you can listen to his sermons, I'm afraid it will be of great benefit." The person who spoke was a little excited in his words.
Another pilgrim shook his head and said, "Brother, you don't know something. Master Hongfa is indeed a master of Taoism, and his understanding of the Heavenly Doctrine is unparalleled by anyone in this world."
"It's just that the old man is old and is now an octogenarian."
"It is rare that he comes out to teach the Dharma. Usually it is his disciples of the Qianzi generation who come to preach the meaning of the sutra."
"I see, that's a pity."
"quiet!"
While the two were talking, a soft drink came from outside the lecture hall.
Then a middle-aged Taoist man wearing a red robe, with a shiny face, fat figure, and an appearance of wealth walked in.
There were many young Taoist priests following him. One of them stood up and looked at the many pilgrims and said, "Today, Taoist Master Qianyuan will explain the Heavenly Doctrine to you."
When everyone heard this, they were all happy.
Especially the pilgrims who come often know that this Taoist priest Chen Qianyuan is the leader among Tianyi Jiao Qianzi generation.
During the days when Master Hongfa could not go out in seclusion, he was the one taking care of the huge Tianyi Sect.
Being able to listen to this lecture is naturally much more precious than other disciples of the Qianzi generation.
Chen Qianyuan was very satisfied when he saw this scene. He walked forward and started talking.
Although he is fat, he has grown up in the Tianyi Sect since he was a child. He knows the Tianyi Sutra by heart, and he naturally knows the meaning of the sutras like the back of his hand.
It can be said that in the entire Tianyi Sect, the only person who can surpass him in terms of the meaning of the scriptures is Zhang Hongfa, the master of Hongfa.
Therefore, things like opening a forum to preach scriptures are easy to do.
"There are many demons and monsters in the world, and then a true warrior comes to the world to cleanse the world. Once again, the world is bright and prosperous..."
In the sound of Chen Qianyuan's sermon, the pilgrims listened quietly, extremely immersed and mesmerized.
But the little Taoist priests frowned, feeling that something was not quite right.
Because Chen Qianyuan's lecture today was a little different from the past, and it was too flattering to Emperor Zhenwu.
In and out of words, it seems that without Emperor Zhenwu, the world would have been destroyed long ago.
You know, although their Tianyi sect believes in Emperor Zhenwu, they pay more attention to the scriptures themselves.
The Tianyi Dao Sutra was personally written by the most respected sects of the past dynasties, and its meaning can be described as profound and profound.
There is only a very small part about Emperor Zhenwu subduing demons and bringing peace to the world.
Because the leaders know that the court doesn’t like it!
If Emperor Zhenwu is widely promoted, should the people believe in the imperial court or Emperor Zhenwu?
In order to avoid this situation, the sects of the past dynasties have paid attention to it when writing scriptures. Therefore, only a small part of the plot about Emperor Zhenwu subduing demons was purely written as a script.
But now, Chen Qianyuan only chose such a small part to talk about.
However, his explanation skills were quite good, and he explained this part vividly, leaving the pilgrims spellbound.
I'm afraid there's something wrong with this.
The young Taoist priests felt uneasy, but because of their low status, it was difficult to interrupt them.
Soon, the two-hour lecture officially ended.
While the pilgrims were lingering, Chen Qianyuan straightened his clothes, obviously he still had something to say.
The young Taoist priests frowned slightly when they saw this.
Logically speaking, it was time to leave at this time, and it was their job to resolve their doubts with the pilgrims.
"Alas!" Instead of leaving, Chen Qianyuan pretended to sigh, which was very obvious.
This scene obviously caught the attention of the pilgrims!
Among the pilgrims, the one sitting in the front row was Wang Yuanwai. His family was rich, and he believed deeply in what Emperor Zhenwu said.
Therefore, every time the Tianyi Sect holds a forum to give lectures, they must be included.
Over time, even the little Taoist priests remembered this familiar face.
Seeing Chen Qianyuan sighing at this moment, Wang Yuanwai couldn't help but ask: "May I ask Master Chen, why are you sighing?"
"I'm sighing. In ancient times, evil spirits were rampant and the people were in dire straits. Yet a true warrior came to the world to cleanse the world."
"Now that I'm in a big position, I'm still in danger, but I no longer have real strength. If this continues, what should I do?"
"I am now living and working in peace and contentment, why did Master Chen say this?" Although Wang Yuanwai believes in Emperor Zhenwu, he is a businessman after all. He is smart and not stupid.
"Pilgrim, you don't know something. Daqian is prosperous now, but all this is because His Majesty is considerate of the people and treats the people well. But not every emperor will be like this. I have heard that the current prince is arrogant and ungrateful. No skills."
"If such a person takes the throne in the future, wouldn't Daqian be in danger?"
