Su Dongpo's coffin was through the canal and went to Haizhou by water. It's not a ship, but a long line of official ships, end to end, more than a dozen. Of course, the largest one has Su Dongpo's coffin, the best Nanmu coffin, in addition to Su Dongpo's body, there are a bunch of funeral goods, mainly calligraphy and painting, there are Wu Haogu, Mi Youren, Huang Tingjian, Su Dongpo's own, Du Wenyu, Zhang Zeduan, and of course, the thin gold calligraphy work of Zhao Ji, the heavenly khan of the four seas, "Lingbao Immeasurable Human Quality". In short, if it is dug up for anyone in the future, there will be 10 billion......

There are so many treasures, of course you have to find a good place to bury Su Dongpo's coffin. Therefore, Wu Haogu also brought a boat of Taoist priests who can watch feng shui and divide gold and acupoints, Liu Wuji, a Wuji real person from Wanshou Palace, and Guo Qingyi (Guo Xiaoxiao), a Qingyi scattered person who painted immortal views, and also went to Haizhou together. When the time comes, they have to find a treasure cave that can bless the descendants of the Su family to be promoted and make a fortune, and bury Su Dongpo - Wu Haogu really didn't know that Liu Wuji and Guo Xiaoxiao would also divide the gold and set the acupoint.

The Taoist priest is responsible for dividing the gold and fixing the acupoints, and the monk is responsible for transcending the undead! Invited the senior monk of the Great Xiangguo Temple, the monk Huiming Zen Master, the abbot of the Great Xiangguo Temple of the Jiehe River, and the first Xuan Lin Zen Master of the Dharma Temple of Shaolin Temple. All of them are eminent monks! Su Dongpo will definitely be able to cross to the western sky.

Buddhism and Taoism are all together, and Confucianism is of course indispensable. Su Dongpo's sons are Confucianists, and his protégés Wu Haogu, Li Li, Jiang Tangzuo, Pan Dalin, and Pan Daguan are also Confucians, and there is also a Confucian Ji Yizhi, who "met by the way" Yuan Fu was the first in the three-year rite test. The big guy sent Su Dongpo's coffin to Yuntai Mountain in Haizhou for burial, and the road was quite lively.

Of course, the funeral procession is still a little more serious, and it is not easy to do any entertainment activities on the road, so everyone gathers on Ji Yi's ultra-luxurious "cruise ship" every day...... Discuss worldview, outlook on life, values, and so on!

Well, but it's really being discussed.

“…… What I mean is that we still have to follow the path of integrating the three religions, otherwise the Great Education Group will not have to educate others, and they will have to pinch it themselves. ”

"But how can the three religions be unified?"

It can be said that in the beginning, there was a heavenly principle, and there was Buddha, Confucianism, and Taoism, and the Buddha ruled the hearts of the people, Confucianism governed the family and the country, and the Tao was natural. That is to say, the three religions of Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism were born in Tianli, and each of the three religions performed its own duties......"

"That's not going to work, the Buddha is the greatest! Amitabha! ”

"Lao Jun is the biggest, Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!"

"Well, cough, it's obviously the greatest principle of heaven, the unity of heaven and man, the unity of heaven and man, the unity of heaven and man......"

It's a quarrel!

Monks, Taoist priests, and the great Confucian Hou Zhongliang are not convinced by anyone on the question of whose biggest question.

The integration of the three religions was a hot topic during the Song Dynasty. Not only did Ercheng take this path, but Sumen Shuxue also wanted to integrate the three teachings, and Wang Anshi's Jinggong Xinxue also absorbed a lot of nutrients from Buddhism.

However, this unity of the three religions is all Confucianism learning from Buddhism and Taoism, not true unity.

Now, Confucianism has Wu Haogu's "Positivism" and "Theory of Reason", and there is already a materialist line, and it doesn't matter if there is no theory of Buddhism and Taoism (referring to Taoism) to fool people. When did materialism ever fear idealism?

However, in order to facilitate the spread of Confucianism, Wu Haogu still put forward the concept of the integration of the three religions - not as a great Confucianism of positivism and rationalism, but as a great Confucianism of science.

Wu Haogu glanced at Ji Yi, who was frowning slightly, he had never taken a superficial position from the beginning of the discussion to the present. I wonder if he wants to add a set of Manichaean things?

"Brother Yi," Wu Hao Gu said, "what do you think?" ”

Ji Yi shook his head, "Brother Chongdao, this merging of different sects, as far as I know, there is no precedent for success."

Believing in God is actually the purer the better! For example, Tianfang Sect and Nestorian Sect are all immortals...... There are already many immortals in Buddhism and Taoism, and if you do three religions in one, I am afraid it will be too chaotic and complicated. ”

Not to mention, Ji Yi, a Confucian scholar, has really miscellaneous knowledge, he knows a little bit about everything, and he is a bit miscellaneous.

"Makes sense, too." Wu Haogu nodded.

In fact, there is a bit of monotheism, but Confucianism did not establish gods from the beginning, and advocated respecting ghosts and gods. Therefore, Cheng Yi has no way to turn science into Tianli Teaching, he has no way to establish gods, and he has no way to fabricate gods.

For believers, the word of God is unquestionable, and naturally there is no need for practical advice and rational reasoning—or only practical and rational proof of God's existence and correctness, but not the opposite, or barbecue.

In this respect, Confucianism without a god is actually more receptive to reason and empirical evidence.

However, the reason for not establishing a god is only because it is constrained by the Confucian "source code", and there is no way to establish a god. This problem only exists in the Central Plains, and in a place like the Western Regions, where there is no foundation in Confucianism, Tianli and Juanla can be completely the same thing as Heavenly Father.

"It's better to be like this," Wu Haogu thought for a moment, "The banner of the integration of the three religions still has to be raised for the time being, at least in the Western Regions, and there may be Nanyang in the future." ”

Missionary work has to be fooled! Didn't Western colonizers also preach Catholicism and Christianity in history? I haven't heard that they passed on Newton's three laws to the colonies as soon as they came up.

He thought for a while, and then said, "The Great Sect is the combination of the three religions...... How can there be no one unity? However, when everyone arrived in the Western Regions and opened temples, Taoist temples, and academies, they taught their own religions. There is just one thing to follow, that is, the three religions are one family, they cannot kill each other, and they do not divide the territory or each other. ”

"That's fine!"

"Okay!"

"Amitabha, that's it."

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable ......"

Wu Haogu nodded, and then said to He Tianran and He Da Master beside him: "Propose one...... The Covenant of the Three Religions! Write the three religions and one family, not killing each other, regardless of territory, regardless of each other, working together! ”

"Shuaisi," He Tianran thought for a while, and then asked, "Do you want to write that if there is a violation, the sky will be thundered and slashed, and there will be three knives and six holes?" ”

How does it sound like a yakinifer!

Wu Haogu looked at the monks and Taoists present and Hou Daru - they were the ones who made the alliance with blood, and Wu Haogu was the master behind the scenes, and he did not participate in the alliance.

"That's fine!" The great Confucian Marquis Zhongliang said, "Write it all down, kill a chicken later, let's make a blood alliance!" ”

"Kill chickens?" The great monk of Shaolin Temple shook his head, "This is killing, Amitabha Buddha ......"

Wu Hao said: "Then don't kill chickens, instead make an oath in front of the statues of Buddha, Sanqing and Confucius!" After taking the oath, let's discuss the matter of the monks, swordsmen, and guardian doctors. ”

Of course, the missionary mission in the Western Regions must convince people with reason, and must learn from the Confucian sage "The sword does not leave the body, and the virtue convinces people", so not only the doctor group should send armed protectors (knights), but the Shaolin Temple also plans to send Arhat monks. And Jingling Palace and Wanshouguan are Taoist temples that do not have Taoist soldiers, but Guo Jing and Liu Wuji also asked Zhao Ji for an order to recruit a small number of swordsmen to go to the Western Regions together.

……

"Daddy, there's a distinguished guest visiting."

Su Zhe, who was reading and thinking in the study, was suddenly interrupted by a voice from outside the door.

He was interrupted by his third son, Su Xun. Su Xun is a jinshi who has been in the Yasukuni for three years since the establishment of the country, and his ranking is not very high, but the official position he has been awarded is very good, and he is the secretary of the provincial school - not for Zhao Ji to be a secretary, but a librarian! However, in the promotion chart of civil officials in the Song Dynasty, the librarian is much more popular than the county lieutenant.

"Guest?" Su Zhe frowned, but there were no distinguished guests at his house for a few days.

"Come in." Su Zhe said.

The door of the inner study was pushed open, and it was Su Xun who walked in, holding a name card in his hand, and handed it to Su Zhe with both hands.

Su Zhe took the name card and looked at it, and was immediately stunned - it was Shangshu's left servant who shot Cai Jing!

"Cai Yuanchang?" Su Zhe stood up suddenly, "He came in person?" ”

"Exactly!" Su Xun said, "It was a micro-service, and the child asked him to wait in the inner hall." ”

The dignified left minister of Weifu visited a secretary of the Ministry of Rites who was about to be appointed abroad...... What is this trying to do? Is it trying to win yourself over? Su Zhexin said: I am the upright Su Qingtian! However, Cai Jing is the prime minister after all, and it is still rude to avoid it.

Thinking of this, Su Zhe said to his son, "Let's go, go and meet." ”

Cai Jingweifu came to visit, of course, I didn't want anyone to see it. But he is not without a little arrangement, his son, Cai Zhen, who is also a school secretary in the secretary province, agreed with Su Xun early in the morning to arrange for the two to meet each other - don't look at Su Zhe and Cai Jing as political enemies, their two sons actually have a good relationship.

And now there is no irreconcilable contradiction between Cai Jing and Su Zhe.

"Daddy, Su Xianggong has arrived."

Cai Jing's voice, which came with Cai Jing, came from the door of the inner hall, and Cai Jing immediately stood up, smiling all over his face, looking at Su Zhe who walked in quickly from outside.

Su Zhe arched his hand and said: "Yuan Chang, why don't you let people inform me in advance, and I can open the middle door to greet you." ”

Cai Jing shook his head and said, "No, no!" The two servants of Shangshu Province shot at each other, and it was best not to communicate generously with the Ming Dynasty, so as not to speak to the imperial history. ”

"Yuan Chang, what do you say......" Su Zhe looked at Cai Jing with some uncertainty.

Su Zhe was shot by the right servant of Shangshu, but that was during the Yuanfeng period, and now he is just a Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

"How?" Cai Jing said with a smile, "Shouldn't the right servant shot vacated after Brother Ling's death be made up by Brother Zi." ”

"Me?" Su Zhe couldn't believe his ears.

Of course he wants to do it, and Su Dongpo also wants him to do it, but the decision is not in the hands of the two of them! The official family has the final say in this matter...... But everyone knows that the official family does not mean this, and the official family does not look down on Su Zhe, an "old friend of the people of Liao".
