Han Yu was a famous literary master in the Tang Dynasty and the first of the eight great writers of the Tang and Song Dynasties who were world-famous for their prose.
Even among all the worlds to which the main world belongs, the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties are also a very influential literary group.
After society develops to a certain level, culture and art will be superior to the economy and will be liked and needed by people.
The reason for all this is very simple, that is, the progress of society has greatly enriched materials. When people's hearts are silent, they will naturally shift to spiritual and cultural activities, and spiritual and cultural activities are not just so-called music. , movies and TV series, and other things that are more purely literary and purely musical.
As for famous cultural groups such as the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove and the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties, they would always appear very popular in front of this big world that spans the heavens.
Not only them, but anyone who has left their own footprints in the ancient cultural circle will be sought after in this era. Even the slandered Sui Ming Emperor Yang Guang was not surprised.
However, no matter how those cultural groups compare, they can't compare to the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties. Unless they can bring over the Qinhuai River group, no one can beat them.
In other words, the entire Qinhuaihe group is inferior to them.
Because although they are said to be the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties, in fact the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties include all the poets and lyricists of the Tang and Song Dynasties.
Because everyone can have some relationship. For example, almost everyone in the Song Dynasty can have a relationship with Ouyang Xiu, and counting from Han Yu, they are also a group of big guys with an orderly inheritance.
These big guys have openly placed themselves below the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties.
Of course, the big guys in the Song Dynasty were giving face to the political idiot Ouyang Xiu, but the big guys in the Tang Dynasty were not giving Korean names, but because they like to travel but have no money, so they can only go out to play under the name of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties. It can be reimbursed at public expense.
This is especially good for people like Li Bai and Du Fu.
People like Li Bai and Du Fu were able to bring out a whole string of cultural celebrities, and these people in turn brought their friends into the group of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties.
This resulted in the whole group of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties being actually very large, and Han Yu had a relatively high status in it. He was a figure who connected the past and the following, so he was considered by everyone to be a figure who could be used to support the scene.
As for those people in the Song Dynasty, as well as Li Bai and Du Fu, although they are all famous, in fact these people are a little worse in handling secular affairs, so they can let Han Yu hold up the scene.
And Han Yu came here this time just to see if he could draw anyone in this world into his group of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties. He didn't care about politics, nor did he care about transcendence. What he cared about was art, culture, and traditional culture. He no longer cares about politics or anything else.
However, when Han Yu came here this time, he discovered a very important thing, that is, there are many ways to destroy the Buddha, and there are even good ways to destroy the Buddha, but he didn't do it in the first place. I chose the most difficult method, which was to make him, a self-proclaimed smart guy, completely emo.
"Boss Han, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so uncomfortable? You shouldn't be uncomfortable every month, right?"
Su Shi, seeing Han Yu's unhappy expression, ran over and teased him.
As a result, Han Yu just waved his hand and then looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle.
"You are really suffering from depression. Why don't you just talk about it and let everyone... be happy together!"
When Su Zhe saw that Han Yu was depressed, he immediately came up to him. At first, Han Yu thought he was trying to comfort himself when he heard his words. However, it turned out that this guy was worse than his brother and just wanted to laugh at himself.
"Stay away from me. I just remembered the things I did to destroy the Buddha. I didn't expect it to be so simple. You have to know that I risked my life and was almost beheaded by that bastard Tang Xianzong. You Do you know that I almost got my head chopped off!”
In Han Yu's words, Li Chun, Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty, was a bastard. When this guy came to power, he did everything well and was about to realize the renaissance of the Tang Dynasty. However, he started to be interested in religious activities again this day or in his later years. It was Buddhism and Taoism that he admired, which caused the situation of Yuanhe and Zhongxing he created to completely collapse, causing the Tang Dynasty to fall into chaos again, and then there was no way for those behind him to make the Tang Dynasty rise again. .
This gave everyone in the entire Tang Dynasty an unwilling thought, especially for those like Han Yu who were about to realize the center of the Tang Dynasty, which was really unacceptable.
So they always call Li Chun a bastard.
What upset Han Yu and the others the most was the incident of sending off the Buddha's bones. After Li Chun's victory in the vassal reduction war, he did not attribute his achievements to the bloody frontline soldiers, nor to the generals' precautions, but he whimsically He believed that it was his sincerity in worshiping Buddha that influenced him, and he was able to bless the final victory of the war.
At the same time, because life was short, Li Chun, Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty, not only wanted to establish merit in this life, but also imagined that he could still establish merit in the next life, so he worshiped Taoism and Buddha at all costs, and finally caused the incident of welcoming and sending off the bones of the Buddha. .
The underground palace of Famen Temple was opened and the Buddha's bones were welcomed into the capital. This was nothing. This kind of thing had happened more than once during the heyday of the Tang Dynasty.
However, when Li Chun was in power, the Tang Dynasty was no longer prosperous, so Han Yu wrote "Admonition to Welcome the Buddha's Bone Table" to the emperor, but he was almost killed. This incident was a setback in his heart.
Only now did he discover that there was actually such a way to deal with Buddhism. His previous petitions were completely useless, so he felt eom.
But what made Han Yu feel even more emo was Su Che's attitude, "If I were the emperor, I would chop off your head, and you wouldn't even read what the book you read is about!"
"What happened to the book I read? Is there anything wrong with what I said?"
Han Yu glanced at Su Che with a frown. In his opinion, the articles he wrote were all excellent and there would be no mistakes.
"It's very good, but you said that all the places that believe in Buddhism are short-lived guys, but you forgot one thing, that is, Li Chun also believes in Buddhism, so it doesn't matter how you criticize Buddhism, but You can't get involved with him. Li Chun prays to God and worships Buddha because he wants to live forever. Aren't your words just cursing him for a short life? As a subject, you are cursing the king. It's a good thing that he didn't kill you. "
"Who said he didn't kill? He wanted to kill. He wanted to kill, but he was persuaded."
Han Yu was so angry at Su Zhe's words that Li Chunzhen really wanted to kill him but was persuaded to do so.
"Although you can be persuaded, haven't you ever thought that Li Chun actually doesn't want to kill you?"
Su Che lit himself a slender lady's cigarette and started puffing away.
Han Yu had naturally thought about it a long time ago. Since he could be persuaded, he would not really want to kill him, but the matter of chanting Buddha's name was a hatred in his heart, because the Tang Dynasty was too benevolent to Buddhism. .
The reception of the Buddha's bones became an important event that ended the resurgence of the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, this man who had worked hard for the Tang Dynasty all his life was a little upset.
"I understand what you said, but I can't get over it! And you guys want to meet each other this time, but you are so thoughtful, so impatient, and so successful!"
Han Yu had already used his own abilities to conduct some deductions, and he found that if he followed what happened this time, Buddhism would most likely be killed directly.
"Are we acting cautiously? Are you mistaken? What we do is simply impossible to surpass. Every step we take is steady!"
Su Shi looked at Han Yu with a confused face.
He may not have known these things when he was doing things in the early years, but now he must be cautious about these things and make sure everything is done before taking action. Just like this time, he recommended Foyin purely because Foyin is really an eminent monk. , As for drinking and eating meat, he did not lie. Foyin originally liked eating and drinking with Su Dongpo.
It's just that he, like monks like Li Xiuyuan, is a person who has Buddha in his heart and is completely different from those fake monks who have Buddha in their mouth.
However, in the eyes of ordinary monks, or in the eyes of ordinary people, such people are Buddhist scum. Su Shi recommended Zhuo Qun because he knew what he wanted to do. He was a monk with real talents.
Although he drinks wine and eats meat, this is indeed a good monk. He introduced this monk to let ordinary people know that monks also eat wine and meat.
As for Xue Huaiyi and Bian Ji, they are both good-looking and good monks with profound Buddhist knowledge. It’s just that if these two monks are not good at wine and meat, but food and sex, then they will definitely cut off many Buddhist believers. Thoughts.
After all, these people are all good-looking monks with profound Buddhist knowledge. Even if they argue about Buddhism one by one, they are motivated by their words and will never cause any embarrassment to Buddhism.
It's just that the existence of these people is an attack on Buddhism. The better these monks are, the more it shows that Buddhism does not pay attention to the moral character of monks.
The ones recommended by other people were all about eminent monks who were not familiar with Buddhism. All of them were talented and learned, but none of them could keep the rules and precepts.
Only in this way can Buddhism's face be knocked off.
Su Shi was the first to see this clearly.
So he was also the first to come up with these things.
However, Han Yu couldn't believe it. In his impression, Su Shi's talent and learning were no problem, but in politics, Su Shi's brain was not so useful at all, otherwise he would not have been exiled repeatedly. .
After he said this, Su Shi's face turned dark.
Su Shi immediately said that he was killed time and time again because he was not as sinister and vicious as the other party, and not as unruly as the other party.
Su Shi himself played completely according to the political rules of the Song Dynasty, but he never thought that the political rules had changed and turned into the rules of party struggle. He could not play with this kind of rules. In addition, his There were too many students and friends, so they were slowly turned into a so-called Shu Party.
And Su Shi became the leader of the Shu Party among the three parties of Luo, Shu, and Shuo. And he still had traces of Ouyang Xiu on his body, and he was the heir of the Qingli courtiers, so he was directly regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh. Several other parties are the biggest enemies in their hearts.
In this case, it can be said that he has enemies all over the government and the public, so Su Shi naturally became the first victim of the party struggle, and at the same time, his students were also with him.
The reason why he was later attacked by those who opposed Wang Anshi was because he opposed those people again. The whole family said that he was out of date. But who can understand that everything Su Shi did was in accordance with the Song Dynasty Where are the early formal rules in play?
Moreover, everything Su Shi did was for the Song Dynasty at that time, and there was never anything for himself.
Whether it was anti-reform or against anti-reform, Su Shi never considered his own personal interests, which is why he was always harassed by others. Therefore, Su Shi was never a guy who didn't understand politics. On the contrary, he was very good at politics. He could see clearly, but just because he could see so clearly, he knew when he had to stand up and when he had to have his own persistence.
In fact, the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties were not only good at literary talent, but also had their own political perseverance. In fact, the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties can also be seen as a pragmatic political proposition, which is why they were able to unite so many people. .
Unlike Sima Guang, even Sima Qian, who is also a historian, looked down upon this guy. He thought that the Zizhi Tongjian written by him contained too much personal information and was not what a history editor should be like, so Sima Qian was disdainful. He was with Sima Guang.
Anyway, there are a lot of things like loving each other in the literary circle. After all, everyone has a scholarly tone, and they may just have the same brain. Just get close to someone, and then someone else gets hot, and that person falls out on the spot.
All in all, it was quite chaotic.
Zhuo Qun would not care about their affairs. Even if the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest went to play rock music or Li Bai became a party expert, he would not care about these things.
He has now begun to register those eminent monks recommended by various worlds.
It has to be said that all of these eminent monks are well-dressed and good-looking, and they are all familiar with scriptures and all kinds of Buddhist scriptures, and they all have religious certificates.
It seems that they are all good monks and eminent monks.
