Chapter 395: The Ambition of the Rouran Khan

"Khan, now the prime minister has been secretly executed. However, the candidate for the prime minister also needs to be reconsidered! Ke Horton said.

"That's it! So, does Horton have any suitable candidates to recommend? Khan glared at Khedun.

"Concubines have. For example, the right lane leader will do! He is strong in martial arts and invincible. I can definitely be the prime minister! Ke Horton said.

"However, he is not our Rouran. It's the Chihu. And Erzhurong is a nation. It is inevitable that such a person will not take refuge in the Wei State! Khan worried.

"Khan, you're worried!" Ke Horton said.

"Worrying too much, as the saying goes: if you are not of my race, your heart will be different." Rouran Khan said.

Rouran Khan remembered what had happened before:

"Niangniang, now that we are rich in the country of Wei, we should really promote Buddhism and purify all sentient beings!" The host of the White Horse Temple said.

"Yes! Our Wei State was originally orthodox in the Central Plains, and it should be a great way to promote Buddhism! Empress Dowager Hu said.

In the days that followed, the land of Wei was full of people building temples!

"Have you heard? Recently, Empress Dowager Hu believes in Buddhism, and she has ordered the construction of temples across the country! Let's invest in temples, shall we? Surely you can make money? Uncle Li said.

"The stakes are too high!" Uncle Pan said.

"Don't be afraid, there is government support! Nowadays, people who sell Buddhist utensils and supplies are all distributed. Why bother Wang Xiaoer, he was still farming with me last year. This year, he is the shopkeeper! They all built three floors in their homes. Uncle Li said.

"That's it! Buddhist supplies are so profitable! Uncle Pan said.

"It was meant to be! Today, the imperial court strongly supports the cause of Buddhism. This is a great opportunity to make a fortune! Uncle Li said.

"I didn't expect Buddhism to be so hot now! I've heard that Buddhism in the south is good too! Uncle Pan said.

"If we smuggle from Wei and transport a batch of Buddhist supplies, we will definitely make a lot of money." Uncle Li said.

"Isn't that illegal?" Uncle Pan said.

"Wealth is in danger. Breaking the law is the only way to make money! Uncle Li said.

"But, it's smuggling! Caught and killed? Uncle Pan said.

"Kill the head, what is that? I've heard that there are still people in Wei who smuggle weapons to Liang! Uncle Li said.

"That's a great sin to destroy the Nine Clans! How dare anyone do it? Uncle Pan cried.

"So! Don't be cowardly! Just do it! Uncle Li said.

"I don't dare to do it! Go for it! Uncle Pan cried.

He thought to himself: this is too risky. The head is pinned to the waistband of the trousers. I really don't dare to do it!

"Then you're going to continue to live a poor life, right? You want to get rich, but you're afraid of risk. Why don't you go and buy a bowl and set up a stall. Uncle Li said.

The streets of Luoyang, Wei State, are full of monks coming and going.

"Recently, the White Horse Temple needs to be expanded! Funds are needed! Monk A said.

"Isn't there an appropriation from the imperial court?" Monk B said.

"Those people in the court are probably busy collecting money. They've long since left a few dollars left! Monk A said.

Uncle Wang, who sells soy milk on the street, asked, "Your temple is also short of funds?" Now the incense is so strong! ”

"Why is there no shortage of it? It's very lacking! Monk A said.

"How is that possible?" Uncle Wang asked!

"Of course, there is a lack of funds. The funds have been embezzled by the people of the imperial court! Monk A said.

"So? Now the imperial court is actually embezzling money from your temple. That's the Buddha's money! Uncle Wang said.

"Buddha's money? Haha, you believe it too? Whoever the court says is who's. The court wants you to give money, can you refuse? Monk B said.

He thought to himself: It's not easy to be a monk now! Our temples have become a tool for court officials to collect money!

"No, you can't. But it's not bad for you to be a monk! I heard that you don't delay marrying a wife and having children! Uncle Wang said.

"Yes! Today's monks can be very free! Monk A said.

Luoyang White Horse Temple is full of people burning incense, and there is an endless stream.

"I beg the Buddha to manifest and bless our family with a long life and a hundred years of gold!" Aunt Wang said reverently.

She closed her eyes and caressed her hands.

She thought to herself: Buddha must bless our family! Our family donated all the money to the temple!

"Don't worry, the Buddha will bless you!" The monk of the White Horse Temple said.

At this time, the presiding officer of the White Horse Temple was also in the meditation room.

He said to the monks: "Our White Horse Temple is now the largest temple in the Wei Kingdom. Empress Dowager Hu also believed in Buddhism. In the future, we need to receive people from the imperial court. Be careful. Lao Wei heard that Lord Yuancheng had never been in harmony with Empress Dowager Hu. He's coming to our White Horse Temple. You need to find a way to quench his anger. Otherwise, I am afraid that there will be a catastrophe for the imperial court. Under the nest, there are no eggs. Our White Horse Temple is not immune! ”

"Not immune. Is it that serious? Monk A asked.

"Yes. Our White Horse Temple has always had a close relationship with the imperial court. The host said.

"Then you don't need to worry so much about the affairs of the court! After all, we are all Buddhists! Monk A said.

"A person in the Buddhists? Oh, yes! However, the imperial court is also an authority! Buddhism in our Central Plains also needs the support of the imperial court. Even the Buddhism of Tianzhu needs the support of the local court! I heard that the dissident king of Nan Tianzhu was against Buddhism! The host of the White Horse Temple said.

"I've heard about this, too. Some of the kings of Tianzhu admired Buddhism. For example, the previous Mauryan Emperor Ashoka. Some advocate Brahmanism. Nowadays, many people say that Xiao Yan, the island of Liang, was the Ashoka of the Southern Dynasty. Monk A said.

"Is he worthy? It's just a hypocrite who kills the king and usurps the throne! The host of the White Horse Temple said.

"However, the imperial court vigorously believes in Buddhism in order to win the hearts of the people!" Monk A said.

"Win the hearts and minds of the people? yes! Today, however, there is a lot of corruption in the imperial court. The actual cost of our temple is too small! "The presiding officer of the White Horse Temple said,

"Host. We also have to fight for the interests of the imperial court? Otherwise, we won't have a place! Monk A said.

"Don't be afraid, just get rid of Yuan Cheng. We're having a better time. He has always been against us Buddhists. The host of the White Horse Temple said.

"But Yuan Cheng is the royal family of Wei. Is it really that easy to bring down? Monk A asked.

"It's not. But it's not very difficult! The host of the White Horse Temple said.

"How is that possible? Although he had a very bad relationship with Empress Dowager Hu. But that's not the case! Monk A said.

"As long as Yuan Cheng continues to oppose Buddhism, Empress Dowager Hu will look at him unpleasantly." The host of the White Horse Temple said.

"It's not pleasing to the eye! It's that serious. If Yuan Cheng did not violate the law of the country. What did Empress Dowager Hu do with him? Monk A asked.

"No, isn't the law of the country also said by Empress Dowager Hu? Empress Dowager Hu said that he broke the law, and he just broke the law! The host of the White Horse Temple said.

"Really?" Monk A said.

"Of course. If the upper-class person commits a crime or not, he will be a king or a loser, whoever loses will break the law, and whoever wins will be the winner. The host of the White Horse Temple said.

"Could it be that Empress Dowager Hu has long wanted to get rid of Yuan Cheng?" Monk A asked.

"Of course. Yuan Cheng is really hateful. He was dissatisfied with Empress Dowager Hu's obedience to politics. Such a courtier must not live long! The host of the White Horse Temple said.

"It doesn't last long. That's natural. Monk A said.
