Wang Qinruo glanced at them, shook his head, and walked towards the Miaoguang Pagoda on the east side of Nanchan Temple.

Dou Shujun followed closely, and Yu He and three others followed behind them.

"How's it going over there?"

Wang Qinruo asked.

"Fortunately, as soon as we attack those areas, we will attack them together. It should be fine today."

Dou Shujun said.

"After today, everything will be fine in Jiangnan. It depends on whether those families can find Kong Hui's descendants."

Wang Qinruo smiled strangely.

"If you are not afraid of the revenge of their Buddhist sect, the consequences of the three martial arts and one sect will not be good."

Instead of talking about Wang Qinruo, Dou Shujun started talking about the threats from Buddhism.

"Those were troubled times. Those small countries couldn't cope with the chaos in the world, so that's why things happened. Besides, Tang Wuzong destroyed tens of millions of hectares of sacred land once he destroyed Buddha. If he hadn't died from the elixir, Tang Wuzong would have belonged to the Tang Dynasty. What a pity, the Lord of ZTE, a great hero of a generation, the most splendid cloud in the afterglow of the Tang Dynasty."

Wang Qinruo looked at the clouds on the horizon and said faintly.

"Why do you expect a hero?"

Dou Shujun asked, with the voice recorder already open in his pocket.

"No, we have discussed it with the officials several times and think that a virtual monarchy is very good. As long as there is enough money, the royal family can live a good life. As for rights? The officials don't want to fight. The upper limit of the real monarchy is and the lower limit are both explosive, we don’t want to play anymore, not to mention, you don’t want us to be a real monarchy.”

Wang Qinruo turned around and smiled.

"I don't know. Real Lord and Virtual Lord are all your own business and have nothing to do with us."

Dou Shujun smiled with satisfaction after hearing Wang Qinruo's words.

"Isn't that what you think? You want to control us economically, restrict us with weapons, transform us through education, and turn us into the shape you need. Don't think that I don't know what you are doing. We all know it. Clearly.”

Wang Qinruo said expressionlessly.

"Then you still cooperate."

"The dynasties of Zhu Xia have always wanted to show face. We are all like this. How dare you break up with us?"

Wang Qinruo closed his eyes and listened to the tinkling of the copper bells blown by the wind.

"It's true that the sound of the golden bell has been heard for ten miles, and the jade dragon has flown down in half a day. What a wonderful light tower."

On the eighth day of April in the second year of Dazhong Xiangfu, the Tathagata was born, and a shocking scandal spread among Buddhist sects in the south of the Yangtze River. The cause of the incident was that after the great monk Zheng Yanhui took over as the abbot of the Daxiangguo Temple, he exercised his right to go to Buddhist sects all over the world to inspect the lawlessness and expose the law. A shocking scandal started in Jiangnan Buddhism.

The great monk was using the same spirit as the Buddha to cut meat and feed it to eagles and sacrifice his life to feed tigers, exposing to the world all kinds of illegal activities in Jiangnan Buddhism, such as occupying fertile land, hiding weapons, raping prostitutes, and colluding with bandits, a total of more than ten major crimes. He bluntly said that Jiangnan's politics and religion are not good. Etiquette and justice were greatly corrupted, the king's laws were abolished and were not enforced, the monks and nuns did not abide by the rules and corrupted moral customs, so the officials of the Song Dynasty were invited to destroy Buddhism.

In April of that year, Zhang Zhengsui, the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain and the current Weiyi Taoist official, gave a gift to Qingxu Culture and Education Miaoji Zhenjun. Zhang Zhengsui also wrote a letter, saying that the Taoist sect was full of good and bad, and asked the officials of the Song Dynasty to rectify the Taoist sect.

Zhao Heng, an official of the Song Dynasty, then issued an order to strictly investigate Buddhism and Taoism. Monks, nuns and Taoists who had violated the law were ordered to return to the people, and all obscene sacrifices were banned. Those that were not included in the rituals were eliminated, and Buddhist temples all over the country were merged. All the temples in the area were destroyed. All the bronze statues and bells from the abandoned temples were handed over to the Salt and Iron Envoy, and all the Buddha's teeth and bones were sent to the Daxiangguo Temple for donation.

For a time, all the Buddhist temples and garlands were secular residences, and all the ascetics were clothed in white.

A total of more than 4,600 temples in the world were demolished, and more than 40,000 Zhaoti and Lanruo temples were demolished. More than 360,000 monks and nuns returned to secular life. Tens of millions of acres of fertile land owned by the temples were confiscated, and more than a million temple tenants and slaves were released.

In Taoism, only hundreds of bad actors and liars were expelled from the Taoism.

A wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River occupied the farmland of the Xiang Army, captured civilians as slaves, and trained dead soldiers in their homes. They had evil intentions. They ordered Wang Qinruo, the privy envoy, to patrol the south of the Yangtze River. Wang Qinruo killed more than a dozen family heads and more than 80 officials in Fujian Road. After investigation, all He participated in the occupation of the fields opened by the Xiang army specifically for rice cultivation in Champa.

He also handed over all the confiscated fields occupied by large households and the fertile fields of temples to the Xiang army brought by Wang Qinruo to the south of the Yangtze River for planting and use as military camps.

Wang Qinruo also leased fields from large households in the south of the Yangtze River in the name of the imperial court, and gave them to monks and nuns who returned to secular life, temple tenants and slaves, and refugees sheltered by Wang Qinruo for cultivation.

Wang Qinruo acquired more than 150,000 hectares of land in the south of the Yangtze River through reclamation and leases, all of which were cultivated fields. Wang Qinruo was immediately called a capable minister.

At that time, there were rumors in the south of the Yangtze River that the official branch of the Kong family in Qufu, the direct descendant of Confucianism, and Wen Xuangong were false. The original Kong Renyu was actually Zhang Renyu. The descendants of Kong Hui, the direct line of the Kong family, were hiding in Jiangnan. The person who was looking for the descendant of Kong Hui was Wang Qinruo. True mission.

The people who made these rumors also provided evidence. It is said that Wang Qinruo met with the wealthy families in Liangzhe Road alone and gave them a document from the court, asking them to find the descendants of Kong Hui. It is said that the descendants of Kong Hui lived in seclusion. On Liangzhe Road.

It is true that some wealthy families came out with documents after seeing Wang Qinruo. The paper of those documents was also the paper of official documents issued by the imperial court.

Some people went to inquire about those families, but were beaten out before they even entered. Others discovered that the children of these families did not have any followers, but they themselves were mysteriously looking for someone on Liangzhe Road. , after meeting, there were fights between each other, and there were casualties on each other, but those families claimed that they were killed by bandits colluded with Buddhism.

On the eighth day of April, on the birthday of the Tathagata, Wang Qinruo brought the Xiang army to the south of the Yangtze River and the garrisons from all over the south of the Yangtze River to destroy the mountains and cut down the temples. Very big.

In these large and small temples, thousands of bandits, large and small, who were wanted by the court, were captured, and the correspondence of bandits from all over the Yangtze River was confiscated. These temples were more or less related to bandits, and even the entire temple was the lair of bandits.

In some temples, cellars were also found where women were imprisoned for rape, and some nunneries had their doors ajar.

One by one, these things were reported to the world by Wang Qinruoming. For a time, temples all over the world became less visited, and the number of believers in Buddhism also decreased greatly.

During the Jiangnan extermination of Buddhism, the total weight of bronze Buddha statues taken from temples alone was tens of thousands of tons, hundreds of gold and silver Buddha statues, and dozens of Seven Treasures Buddha statues.

The wealth of Buddhism suddenly shocked the world, and officials in the Central Plains also began to look at the temples in the Central Plains.

Everyone is licking their tongues, this piece of Buddhist meat is so fat.

It's just a pity that Chai Rong has already destroyed the Buddha once before, otherwise, this would also be a piece of oily fat.
