Chapter 249: Raid the Temple
"The official is praising the official when he becomes the Xuanhou, but does the Xuanhou ever remember that Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind?" The eldest grandson Wuji said.
"Remember, not only remember this sentence, but also remember that the gun shot the first bird, how about it, this sentence, I haven't heard of it." Xuan Shijing said with a smile: "The matter of Fahua Temple, the eldest grandson will wait for the results, Ben Hou will take the first step and say goodbye." ”
After saying that, Xuan Shijing quickened his pace, hurriedly left the palace, and went straight to the Shenhou Mansion.
In the Shenhou Mansion, all the people and horses were gathered, and Xuan Shijing, dressed in the official robe of a brocade guard, took the lead in beating the horse and headed towards the Fahua Temple.
There are more than 1,000 monks in Fahua Temple, among which there are naturally indispensable monks, so this time the Shenhou Mansion raided Fahua Temple can be said to be a full dispatch, not only Gao Jun Changle but also Qin Bingyue three thousand households, even with Fang Yiai, Marshal Zhao and others also came.
These two people just want to see the excitement......
Jin Yi Wei Jin Yi Wei surrounded the entire Hokke Temple, and then began to expel the people in the Hokke Temple.
There are a lot of believers in the temple who come to the incense to ask for Buddha, and the huge Fahua Temple is also very lively, but when I saw the fierce and vicious Jinyiwei of the Shenhou Mansion, I was scared from the heart for three points, and when the Jinyiwei began to pick up people, although the people were curious about what happened to the Fahua Temple, they had to leave quickly, in case a wave reached themselves, it would not be cost-effective.
Xuan Shijing, together with a few people behind him, dismounted, walked into Fahua Temple, and came to the open space in front of the temple's Daxiong Treasure Hall.
The huge incense burner in front of the hall was still bubbling with cigarette smoke, but it was just a moment away from the excitement.
The monk in the Fahua Temple saw Jinyiwei come in without saying a word, and after driving the believers out, the knife was immediately pulled out, and he didn't know what to do when he was in place.
Obviously, these brocade guards are here for Fahua Temple.
Xuan Shijing and others stood in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and soon, the abbot of Fahua Temple walked out wearing a big red robe.
"Amitabha."
"Abbot, don't shout the Buddha's horn at this time, please gather all the monks of Fahua Temple here, and bring their documents." Xuan Shijing said.
When the abbot heard Xuan Shijing say that he wanted to check the monk's document of Fahua Temple, his heart also chuckled.
It's broken.
There are many monks in the temple who do not have documents, Buddhism has gradually spread in Chang'an City in recent years, many people come to the temple every year to want to become monks, there are too many people, but every year the government distributes so many documents to Fahua Temple......
The problem is here, even if people with a little status in Chang'an City want to become a monk, they also need the documents of the government, and the temple does not dare to offend these people with status, so they can only turn a blind eye and accept people into the temple, but the temple can't all be such 'special' people, who does the work in the temple?
So, in this regard, the temple simply ignored the official documents, and no one would come to check anyway.
As for those monks who have a little identity, if they are out of the house, that little bit of identity will not work...... Especially at this juncture.
This brocade guard dares to pull off the horse even the prince......
"Gao Jun, Chang Le, take people to search the entire temple, don't let go of the slightest, Marshal Zhao is responsible for the record." Xuan Shijing said.
"Yes!" The three of them responded.
Subsequently, Gao Jun and Chang Le took Jinyiwei and began to search the temple, while Chang Le found the pen and ink of the bookcase and began to record the search process of Jinyiwei and the things that were found.
The things recorded must be handed over to the imperial court, and it must be clearly written that Jinyiwei is ordered to do things and search legally.
"Master Hou, what is this in the Shenhou Mansion?" The abbot looked at Xuan Shijing and asked, "Master Hou can't bring people to Fahua Temple to stir up trouble just because the monks in the temple had a dispute with Master Hou on Zhuangzi in Dongshan County." ”
"Ben Hou brought people to Fahua Temple, not to make trouble, but to search by order!" Xuan Shijing said: "Ben Hou said that all the monks in the temple should be gathered here, and Ben Hou will check their documents. ”
"This ......" The abbot heard Xuan Shijing say that it was a search by order, could this be His Majesty's holy order?
"Does the Marquis have His Majesty's holy decree?"
"Your Majesty's dictation, and Benhou is not so bold to act in the name of His Majesty, that is the crime of falsely preaching the holy decree." Xuan Shijing said: "Please also ask the abbot to cooperate, as for the matter of Zhuangzi in Dongshan County, two different things, but your Fahua Temple ignored Benhou's previous warning and insisted on going his own way, offending Benhou, this is true." ”
"Amitabha." The abbot clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name.
"Buddhism pays attention to abstaining from greed, hatred, and resentment, and pays attention to cultivating the mind, and the master doesn't think that many Buddhist temples in Chang'an City are too utilitarian? Or is this what a Buddha is called? Xuan Shijing asked.
Xuan Shijing's words made the abbot of Fahua Temple speechless, after all, in Chang'an City, there was no restraint in hyping Buddhism and holding a Dharma meeting, which was all made by the Buddhists, and each Buddhist temple or something, all of them were Buddhism, the same sect and the same origin, and no one could say whom.
As far as Xuan Shijing and the abbot of Fahua Temple talked, the monks in the temple gradually gathered in the open area in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, there were more and more people, it seemed a little crowded, and even the warrior monks who were beaten in Dongshan County yesterday also stood in the field with the support of their companions.
When these people saw Xuan Shijing standing in front of them, they all speculated in their hearts, are they here to take revenge?
Xuan Shijing's notoriety in Chang'an is also their credit, and after coming back, they hyped how brutal Xuan Shijing was and how tyrannical he was in Dongshan County.
Obviously, this is no longer the fear of things leaking, but people have come to the door and started to retaliate.
"Lord Qiqi, there are a total of one thousand and thirteen monks from Fahua Temple, and all of them are already here."
The square in front of the hall was crowded with too many people, Xuan Shijing and the abbot walked up to the steps, and the Jinyi guard reported the number of monks found.
"Now, those who have papers, go forward, stand in front, and line up." Xuan Shijing shouted loudly: "If there is no official document, retreat." ”
The crowd looked at each other for a while, and then the monks with the identity documents began to move forward, while those who did not have the documents walked to the back.
As Xuan Shijing expected, there are many illegal monks.
"Jinyiwei, check the number of monks in front of you and their identity documents." Xuan Shijing commanded.
"Yes!" The Jinyi guards walked down the steps and began to check the number and check the identity documents.
There were no more than thirty or forty Jinyi guards in front, and the rest were all scattered in various parts of the temple, searching the temple's property and guarding the temple's doors.
