Xianqin Multiverse Empire

Songshan Mountain is picturesque and is one of the Five Sacred Mountains. Since ancient times, many literati have left their traces here. Although the quality of most of the poems is not very good, at least there are not a few of them.

In the later generations, there was a famous painting called Shenshan Zanggu Temple. The content of the painting probably said that there was a monk carrying water in the deep mountains, and there was a remote and crooked path surrounded by dense forests.

Use the water-carrying monk and the crooked path to imply that there is a temple hidden in the forest, otherwise where would this monk live?

And now on Songshan Mountain, there is such a temple, which is the Shaolin Temple.

Compared with the Shaolin Temple in Lu Xiaofeng's world, although the Shaolin Temple is famous today, it is only first-class at most. It is more famous in the whole Northland, but there is still a long way to go from being number one in the world, the leader of the righteous way, or even the so-called martial arts in the world coming out of Shaolin. A long, long distance to go.

About 100 years ago, Bodhidharma set off from India and killed many thieves along the way. He was barely able to slay demons and demons. After untold hardships, he finally came to the Central Plains.

After him, Buddhism in India has completely fallen, and the mainstream sect has changed from Buddhism to Brahman. It can be said that he is the last master of the original Buddhism, and the original Buddhism has declined after him.

After arriving in the Central Plains, he met Huike. When he was young, Huike first studied Confucianism and then Taoism. Finally, he met Bodhidharma and became a monk and the second ancestor of Zen.

Since then, Zen has become the most sinicized Buddhist school, and it can even be said that the future prosperity of Zen is inseparable from this point.

As for the great prosperity of Zen Buddhism, it will be more than a hundred years later.At that time, there were two Zen monks, one named Huineng and the other named Shenxiu.

Shenxiu's point of view is: the body is a bodhi tree, and the heart is like a mirror stand, which should be wiped frequently so as not to be stained with dust.

And Hui Neng's point of view is: Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a stand. There is nothing in the first place, so where is the dust?

It seems that the two people's views are like talking nonsense and talking nonsense, but they represent two different views.

Shenxiu believes that practicing Buddhism requires seriousness, certain methods, certain conditions, and a certain process, emphasizing gradual enlightenment.

Hui Neng believes that as long as the heart is enlightened, one is a Buddha. One emphasizes gradual enlightenment, and the other emphasizes sudden enlightenment.The former emphasizes the process of learning, while the latter emphasizes the change and sublimation of the soul.

Monk Huike had already seen this little story in a large library, and he was very moved.

In his opinion, both of their arguments are reasonable, but they are just different processes of cultivating Buddhism.It cannot be said that Shenxiu is wrong, nor can Huineng be right.

But it must be admitted that Huineng's statement is more suitable for today's Buddhism, and more suitable for the new Zen after the reform under the Qin law.In history, it was after Huineng that Zen began to flourish.

However, after the great prosperity of Zen Buddhism, the average quality of Zen monks also declined, which is also an undeniable fact.

Recalling the history of the development of Zen in other worlds, Huike has been trying to write various precepts of the new Zen these days.

The most important thing is not to conflict with the criminal law, and now the hundreds of thousands of words of the Qin law, he has already been able to recite it backwards.

"Patriarch, I'm back." Monk Tanzong said calmly.

"Well, this is the model of the future Five Doctors Arhat Pao, how about taking a look?"

The models are strictly in accordance with the requirements of the Qin Law. They are neither gold, silver, copper nor precious jade, but the most common clay Buddha statues. There may be stone Buddha statues in the future, but metal jade is impossible.

Hearing that Monk Tanzong looked up, down, left, and right carefully, the appearance of this new five-doctor Arhat Pao is like a cannon, which is completely different from the previous Buddha statues with human faces. At first glance, Tanzong frowned slightly.

But then he seemed to think of the piano method, thought of Ying Zheng's words, and nodded seriously: "Okay, very good."

"I think so too. After His Majesty's Heavenly Soldiers arrive, the Zen Buddhist monks will get up immediately when they hear the cannon fire every morning."

"When the second cannon fires, they will go to the cafeteria to eat, and they will be able to eat meat openly in the future, and they will no longer have to sneak around to the back hills to steal chickens and dogs, hahahaha."

"And when the third cannon fires, you will start to recite the scriptures. From today onwards, Zen Buddhism will no longer recite those complicated scriptures, but the latest version of Qin Fa."

Half an hour later, when the breakfast is almost digested, you can continue to fire the cannon and start practicing martial arts. As for the other monks, they need to start reading and transcribing the latest scriptures.

Thinking of such a scene, Huike's face was once again full of smiles, and he was very happy when he thought about it: "Our scriptures should also be simplified, and they can no longer be as mysterious as before, full of words that ordinary people can't understand."

"We need to compile the simplest Buddhist scriptures that ordinary people can recite according to the Qin Law and our actual situation. into these little stories."

Imagining the scene that Hui Ke described in his mind, Tan Zong also laughed.

Although there are many low-quality monks in Buddhism, there are also some who are truly devout, and Tanzong is such a true monk.

"These requests made by His Majesty are actually nothing. Eating meat, drinking alcohol, or even killing people, it's no problem if you think about it carefully."

"Those who are not willing to kill can stay in the temple, study classics every day, and grow land and vegetables to support themselves. Those who are willing to kill can act as monks, practice martial arts, fight on the battlefield, and contribute to the empire."

"As for marrying a wife and having children, why are many monks doing this now? It's just that they do it quietly, and it's acceptable on the whole."

"As for those who are very pious, those who don't want to marry and have children, and those who don't want to eat meat and drink alcohol are a minority of the minority after all."

"Yes, as long as the core of our Buddhism remains unchanged, nothing else is a problem, but what is the core of our Buddhism? Different people have different opinions. In the old monk's own opinion, it is a kind and Buddha."

"Goodness is to guide people to be good. Our philosophy is good and positive after all. Buddha is to become a Buddha. Everyone has the opportunity to become a Buddha as long as they are enlightened in their hearts. If the Buddha is not in Lingshan, he is in our hearts and by our side. Everyone has the opportunity to become a Buddha."

"In the case of abiding by the Qin law, as long as we grasp these two points, our Buddhism can continue to be passed down. The rest are all rules and regulations, and they are all external."

After looking forward to the future, Huike finally asked about the result of Tanzong's trip: "What did your majesty say?"

"Your Majesty's mind is far wider than we imagined, he said..."

After that, Tanzong finished Ying Zheng's words verbatim, and even imitated the reactions of the people at that time vividly. After a while, Huike nodded again and again, and kept chanting about Amitabha.

"As expected of your majesty, you are upright and upright, but if you want to be ashamed, only your majesty has such a mind."

"Tanzong, your golden bell cover has been cultivated to the No. 11th floor. You are a real grand master, and you are not weaker than the so-called three great masters."

"From now on, the five hundred stick monks in Shaolin will all leave with you, join the empire with you, and fight for the empire. The future of the boy will be entrusted to you."

Chapter 21: The Death of Liu Ji

Accompanied by the war, the whole Great Qin moved up and down.One hundred thousand militiamen and ten thousand warriors, as well as a large number of affiliated gang members, and even spies from the Xiu family and Taoism and Buddhism, all moved into action.

Since it was the first time to launch a war against another world, at such a critical juncture, Ying Zheng could only stay in the Tang world and deal with all emergencies as much as possible.

While Yingzheng was struggling, Dongjun was also working hard as a queen.

At the grand court meeting in the palace, Dongjun held Fusu, who was only a few months old, in his arms.

In front of him was a neat line of civil and military officials. Some of these officials were familiar faces, but more were unfamiliar faces.

However, Dongjun still keeps all the qualifications of these officials in mind by virtue of her strong cultivation base. Although she is not as good as Yingzheng now, she can at least know whoever is. Who, where are you from, what is your past experience.

There are even analysis and evaluations from Shaofu and Luo Wang. With these and her identity, everything is not a problem.

Today, Dongjun sat quietly on the chair near the dragon chair as usual.

Doctor Yushi came out first, and after seeing him stand up, many officials felt a little uneasy, because every time the black-faced guy like Doctor Yushi stood up, several officials would be unlucky, and at least they would be demoted. Then lose the official, or even go to prison.

The censor department is relatively independent after the reform of the official system, and even the prime minister cannot directly interfere with them.

The entire censor department is like an independent small kingdom. They can train spies and have the right to investigate and arrest people. However, in order to prevent the censor department from being too powerful, they can only arrest people and cannot use torture or trial.

Even if they have found enough evidence, they can only hand over the prisoner and the evidence to the Tingwei. The punishment and trial are the right of the Tingwei.

Moreover, the latest Qin law also strictly stipulates that when the censor and Ting Wei hand over the prisoner, they must carefully check and clearly record the prisoner's current state. Once traces of torture are found on the prisoner, the censor department will Bad luck.

Sure enough, what Dr. Censor said next was similar to everyone's imagination, to the effect that in the past few days, the Censor Department has discovered several officials with broken consciences. What crimes have they committed? Transfer to Ting Wei.

After the doctor Yushi finished speaking, Tingwei stood up: Now we are reviewing the evidence submitted by the Yushi department, and we are reviewing the prisoners. If everything goes well, the trial will be held in half a month. At that time, no matter the people of the country, the savages, the officials of the ruling and opposition parties will be interested. Anyone can come and listen.

The prime minister is in charge of overall government affairs, the censor department is in charge of investigating and arresting people, the court lieutenant is in charge of torture and trials, and the general is in charge of military matters, but the logistics are firmly in the hands of the relevant departments.

This is the current distribution of high-level power in Daqin. In addition, there is a relatively independent Shaofu. They only obey the orders of the king. Now that Yingzheng is not here, the Shaofu department is of course responsible to Dongjun.

The conquest department and Han Feizi's large library system are also directly responsible to the king, and neither Wei Liaozi nor Wang Jian can control it.

Listening to the old talk of the crowd, Dongjun still maintained a superficial smile, but suddenly lowered his head, and then a burst of crying came from the ears of the ministers: wow wow wow.

It was Fusu in his arms who woke up from sleep, and now he was crying to drink milk, so naturally he couldn't drink it directly in the public, so he raised his head and looked at the minister: "Is there anything else going on today?"

Doctor Yu Shi immediately said that it was all right, and the Ting Wei who had already stood up also shook his head, as for all the officials, one or two were very winking, and no one said that there was something wrong at this time, so today's court meeting is over.

Everything goes well, everything is fine, and nothing major happens is the best news.

After eating the milk in the palace, little Fusu fell asleep again in a short while. For him, his life at this moment is not only eating but sleeping, and occasionally playing.

After a while, Dong Jun saw Luna. At this moment, Luna was holding a black box in his hand, one foot square, with a human head inside.

The man was smiling, and it looked like he didn't even know he was dead, the moment he died.Died before he could react, which was considered a blessing among misfortunes.

"This is what you want. He doesn't call Liu Bang Liu Ji now. During this process, Luowang, Heibingtai, Prime Minister's Mansion, Shaofu, Conquest Division and even Mr. Han Feizi almost all helped me."

"I didn't know the reason at the beginning, but now I finally figured it out. I guess this person is a big traitor?"

Although the empire has announced the existence of the heavens and worlds, and there are even many books from other worlds in the nine heavens, not all books can be directly disclosed.

Just like the history books have been kept in a state of high secrecy, except for those high-level officials notified by Ying Zheng, no one else knows.

As the queen, Dongjun is of course qualified to view the history books of other worlds, but Moon God and most of the people from various schools and schools do not have this condition and do not have this authority.

Dongjun first checked the surroundings, and nodded after confirming that there were no outsiders within a hundred feet: "In the history of other worlds, the Great Qin II died, and the second emperor was not a hammer. Order and grant death, at that time the king has already died of illness."

"After the Second Emperor succeeded to the throne, Daqin perished immediately. He killed all the clan's children, and bestowed the death of the then military general Meng Tian..."

"Great Qin II died, and the man in front of him became the founding emperor of the new dynasty."

Dong Jun was expressionless when he talked about this period of history, but Luna clearly sensed the murderous intent in it. It can only be said that this kind of history is really unexpected, and he did not expect this kind of development at all.

"I have investigated very clearly. Although his grandfather is a doctor of the Wei Kingdom, he is still a nobleman, but he has declined in his father's generation, and he himself is a ranger."

"In the past, he joined the farming family, but after the farming family joined the empire, he felt that the work of the farming family was too cumbersome and not easy enough, so he left the farming family."

"A person who has no family background, no great influence, and looks like a scoundrel can become the emperor?"

Moon God did not hide her surprise between the words. For people of this era, princes, generals and ministers are all kind. She has never heard of the words of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.

Dongjun nodded first, and then shook his head: "The world is unpredictable, and sometimes the facts are more wonderful than imagined. This is the history of other worlds. It's not just one world, but many worlds."

"Your Majesty is far-sighted. His goal is the heavens and the world. He is naturally broad-minded. It's normal for him not to care about such small things, but I can't. I'm the queen, just a little girl."

Chapter 22: A Thousand Qin Officials

Shanglin Court.

In the past, everyone only knew that there were many secret bases in Shanglin Garden, which were kept very secret, but they didn't know what these bases were for.

At that time, there were at least 1 soldiers on the periphery of Shanglin Garden to defend.Even when South Korea was attacked and the country of Zhao was destroyed, these [-] people did not move out of their nests.

However, when the truth of the heavens and worlds was announced, smart people naturally guessed the usefulness of this place.As a result, the number of rangers who visit this place at night has greatly increased.

The vast majority of rangers were shot into hedgehogs by arrows, and a very few faced the joint strangling of the evil guards and sunflower guards.

Up to now, the number of soldiers on the periphery of Shanglinyuan has grown to [-].This is still a change on the bright side. When many people with evil intentions mention this, their faces will be ugly.

Because their subordinates never left after they came.

Today, Dongjun came here in person.

The core figures among the civil and military officials, high-ranking officials have also come here.

This can be regarded as Yingzheng's established plan. With the big move of the conquest department, the officials and people's understanding of the heavens and the world must become more and more profound.

Portal!

This is a rather chunky portal, hundreds of feet long, but only three feet high.It's not that it can't be higher, but it's useless!

The general height of common people in Daqin is more than one meter.Those below one meter and those above two meters are relatively rare.As for those three meters and above, there are almost none.With such a small height, there is no need to set the portal too high.

Standing in front of the portal were a thousand officials who had just passed the Qin law examination in Dongfang Cangtian. After they passed, they would be at least one official!

Small officials are directly promoted to the village head, the village head is promoted to the township head, and the township head is promoted to the county magistrate.

As for the county magistrate, there are very few.

Standing on the high platform, Dong Jun carefully looked at the thousand officials, seeing their tense or calm faces, his mood suddenly improved.

These humble officials are the real foundation of Daqin.

It is because of them that Daqin can penetrate his will into every township and village at the grassroots level!

"My lords, I'm going to go on an expedition to another world, which is a brand new world. What I can tell you in advance is that that world is also Zhu Xia. They have the same faces as us, and they also have black eyes and black hair."

"Even their history has many similarities with ours, so you don't have to worry too much. Let's go to another world..."

"No clothes? I'm in the same robe as my son. Wang Yuxing master, repair my spear. I'm the same enemy with you!" After the speech, Dong Jun took the lead in shouting.

Under the blessing of true qi, even though the original voice was not loud, it spread to every corner of everyone nearby.

"It's called Wuyi..." This is Xiao He.

"How can I say no clothes..." This is a thousand officials.

Singing Wuyi, they entered the portal in an orderly manner. When they went to another world, the first thing they heard was the familiar voice of Wuyi.

"Why don't you say no clothes? Robe with your son!"

"My lord, this is the voice of my lord!"

"This is Qin opera, this is the emphasis of our old Qin people!"
