Xiahou Chun wiped the sweat on his forehead, and was not to mention, with Grandpa Taizong's stubborn temperament, it was really possible that he would not give up if he did not achieve his goal.

Murong Yan felt a chill in his heart, although Ci was not in charge of the army, he was still shocked to kill eight thousand iron horsemen just by attacking one city gate.

Even if the two of them were not there, they could still feel the cruelty and cold-bloodedness of the war from the old man's words.

"It doesn't matter if the eight thousand iron horsemen die of exhaustion, but if he falls into an ambush, the old man will be even more sad."

The two of them were speechless.

The old man had a complicated expression on his face, as if he was crying and laughing: "The old man really loves him, otherwise how would he not know his ambition?" ”

"His kind of character who plays with the world's heroes between applause, even the master of the Dao Gate bows down in front of his old man, if he really has murderous intentions, even if the second child escapes to the ends of the earth, he will not escape death."

Xiahou Chun was silent, Murong Yan's eyes were slightly wet, the tiger poison did not eat children, and the Emperor Taizu, who destroyed the Great Yan Empire, still had a trace of licking the calf even if he killed the entire world.

The old man seemed to be crying and laughing on his face, "In the end, the old man is still eccentric." ”

Xiahou Chun was speechless, this should be said by his grandfather, saying that if he is really eccentric, how can he pass the throne to you, grandfather.

He sighed in his heart, he couldn't guess what the great-ancestor thought, maybe in his opinion, the eldest mansion was kind-hearted and would not kill the second child, so he awarded the throne to this one; If you give the second brother who is decisive in killing, the boss will be wiped out if he can't keep it, so as to prevent future troubles.

Who knows, as soon as he died, the boss couldn't wait to attack the second child as soon as he ascended the throne, and not only did he not do it, but he also lost the throne in vain.

The old man squinted and glanced at Xiahou Chun, "If you dare to slander the old man, believe it or not, I will cut you?" ”

Xiahou Chun stiffened and laughed a few times, this is an existence that has fought wits and courage with the old ministers of Taikang, how could he not guess the twists and turns in Xiahou Chun's heart.

He hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "You just called the old man of the Song family and the old lady Wang over, why at this time?" ”

The old man's eyes were deep, as if he could pass through the many pavilions and pavilions, and reach the two deep mansion compounds, and sighed softly, "Jinyangju, it's not easy." ”

After he glanced at Murong Yan, a strange color seemed to pass through his cloudy eyes, and then he mentioned to Xiahou Chun intentionally or unintentionally: "Wang Lao Taijun and Song Xi's shortage is a pair of old enemies, well, from childhood sweethearts to love and kill each other, and then to old age and death, and finally everyone to the present wants the other party to swallow that breath first, heh, these ordinary people can't even see through the love thing, why bother." ”

Xiahou Chun was dumbfounded, "That old Shangshu and the Wang family still have this one?" ”

After all, the emperor's brain circuit is different from ordinary people, and the old man tilted his head and asked, "Is Song Xi old?" ”

Murong Yan held back a smile, the old Song seniors are nearly sixty years old, if this is considered old, then what is this old antique in front of him? Living fossils?

Xiahou Chun decisively changed the topic, and said weakly: "After you go down to this matter, remember to explain it to my grandfather, you called them, I don't plan to overturn my grandfather's country." ”

The old man got up, dragged up the half-rotten chair and was about to smash it on Xiahou Chun's head.

Frightened, Xiahou Chun jumped up, and Murong Yan covered his mouth and snickered.

Tuk tuk, outside the door, Xiahou Rong knocked lightly, turned a blind eye to the laughter and play in the house, and said softly: "Dad, they are here." ”

The old man put down his chair and glanced at the two old men outside the door who were also trembling, one was dressed in a green robe and splendid coat, with a hollow pendant tortoiseshell bead crown on his head, with low eyebrows and respectful eyes.

One is an unprecedented vermilion brocade robe embroidered with winged brocade chickens, embroidered with seven chapters of brocade, and silver decorated with swords; The crown on the head is in the virtuous crown, the forehead is gently shaken, in addition to the silver fish bag on the waist, there are also the jingling gold runes and pearls given by Emperor Jing in private, the two echo each other, complement each other, extremely solemn and solemn.

One is the wife of the first product in the Taizong period, the other is the Shangshu of the dynasty, the pillar country, and even posthumously presented the honorary titles of the three princes such as Taifu, Taishi or Taiwei, which can be called the ultimate in people and ministers, and a model of the pinnacle of officialdom.

However, instead of the slightest gesture, the two of them followed suit, cautiously entering the door and carefully peeking at the scene inside.

After seeing the expected old man, Song Xi pouted, knelt down, and said almost hoarsely: "Minister Song Xi pays a visit to His Royal Highness King Jin." ”

According to the Dajing title system, although Zhuguo is a fictitious title, it is still a product, which is equivalent to the prince's title, and this former Shangshu should not be so exaggerated, let alone such a sensitive figure.

But no one in the audience felt strange, let alone the slightest inappropriate.

Because the old man deserves it.

This is not only the will left by Emperor Taizong, but also the consensus of the whole country.

He'd been in that seat after all.

Mrs. Yipin was much more subtle, bowing her eyebrows, and her voice was old, but she greeted her respectfully and casually: "Meet Your Majesty." ”

The title is much more subtle and worth playing.

This title originated from the Western Regions and came from Buddhism, and it is an honorific title for the supreme ruler or emperor of the Western sect, which is almost a priesthood.

Respect its name, empty its position.

The old man didn't care about this, and waved his hand, "I called you over today in the name of this child, it's not a big deal, you don't have to be so solemn, you don't need to be restrained, just talk about family life." ”

Song Yi subconsciously glanced at Xiahou Chun, and suddenly understood, although this is the case, but the will of heaven is unpredictable, people say to talk casually, can he really listen to it casually, people are just polite, how can he take it seriously?

Didn't you see that you didn't even hand over the small bench?

Xiahou Chun is the first time to see the lord of the first family of Dajing, as an old man who has gone through three dynasties and has not fallen, this old lady has witnessed the rise and fall of Emperor Wen, Taizong, and Emperor Jing.

Under the decoration of the brocade robe and the crown of beads and hairpins, this old lady has a graceful demeanor, and the posture of Mrs. Yipin's order is as stable as Mount Tai, as if she doesn't want to show her cowardice in front of Emperor Wen, and she doesn't want to make a fool of herself in front of the old people around her.

Follow the rules but do not lose your bearing, behave solemnly and humblely.

Every move is a deep meaning.

The old man pointed at Xiahou Chun and said with a smile: "This is the grandson of the second child, well, the eldest grandson." ”

Song Xi saluted and greeted with a smile, Xiahou Chun hurriedly got up, he seemed to be still in the other party's inspection period, but he didn't dare to harm him.

Wang Lao Taijun raised his eyes, a trace of inquiry appeared between his eyebrows, and he smiled kindly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a magnificent posture, a handsome spirit, and a little extraordinary courage, and is worthy of being the descendant of His Majesty." ”

The corners of Xiahou Chun's mouth twitched, how could he hear some insinuations in his words, could it be that he was a snake shadow, or did he have the heart of a villain?

There is no lack of caution in his heart, but he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, bowed respectfully, and said half-truthfully: "I don't dare to be so praised by the old lady, the younger generation of children don't know the height of the sky, and often have arrogant and grotesque behaviors, and they should be punished by the rules of the clan, but the north is uneasy, as a child of the clan, I dare not go." ”

He paused in a tone, and said sincerely: "This time, the kid passed through Jinyang, repeatedly offended, disturbed the place, caused the people to panic, and all ethnic groups were uneasy, it was really Xiahou's fault, and the younger generation apologized to the old lady and the seniors here." ”

A trace of surprise flashed in the old lady's deep eyes, didn't he say that this Jin Yu was ruined on the outside, how could he be so articulate, heh, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, but he threw away the rebellion completely, and he deserved to be the descendant of the god who killed the god.

Oh, a rebel family.

From the perspective of her thousand-year-old Wang, the change of dynasty is just a wave in the long river of time, and after a few hundred years, the majestic Dajing will also be buried by the yellow sand and dust, and she can naturally be neither humble nor arrogant.

The reason why he put on this respectful posture is naturally because he knows the times and is a handsome man, and there is also that Taizong was afraid that the Wang family was killed by a disaster that was no less than the extermination of the clan, as a person who had personally experienced that bloody storm, she didn't want to come a second time.

"Ahem."

Seeing that she was distracted and in a trance, Song Xi coughed imperceptibly.

The old lady came back to his senses, and after concentrating, Cangmai smiled, "The prince is serious." ”

The old man sitting by the stove fiddled with the charcoal fire in the stove basin, there was a difference between respect and inferiority, and he would not be hypocritically polite, and after glancing at the two of them lightly, "I called you over to ask, what do you think about the assassination yesterday?" ”

Cui Yan, the sister-in-law of the Cui family, sent people to attack and kill the crown prince Xiahou Chun, if it succeeded, it would be enough, and naturally everything would be stopped, but now that it is not successful, it is natural to take the Cui family.

Whether it is to raid the family and exterminate the clan, or to just cut a knife, or to find a few scapegoats to vent the anger of the prince, a charter needs to be made.

It's just that this choice is not decided by the Cui family, but by the Jin Wangfu, the lord of Jinju.

Of course, in fact, it should be Taikang who should ask, but Xiahou Chun and the others tacitly did not mention this stubble.

Song Xi, as a witness, naturally knows how much damage was caused by yesterday's real battle, no, he has been busy moving since last night, and he is still cleaning up the ruins after working for a long time, and he is sweating in the winter, so he heard this call, and after he heard that the prince visited this, he knew that this was to settle accounts after the autumn, and he did not dare to delay.

Liquidating Cui's is reasonable, but it is unexpected.

Because of this Jinju matter, it is very rare to alarm this existence.

Even in the past 40 years, he is just a living Bodhisattva, where people burn incense and worship the Buddha, but he will not interfere in all local military and political affairs.

Forty years is like one day.

This is also one of the reasons why the hereditary replacement of the new king outside is so unsettling.

Unexpectedly, for the first time in decades, the Buddha today spoke because of this.

Is it worth it to consume the kindness of the year just to be angry for this nephew?

With thoughts running in his head, the former Ministry of Industry Shangshu pondered for a moment and said tentatively:

"Destroy the Cui family?"

－－－－－－

Taikang City, Wanning Palace.

After hearing the change of Jinyang, the enchanting and lazy figure on the phoenix couch Huo Ran got up, his eyes were as cold as electricity, and he said: "Zhao Xiaoxiang, Qiu Pavilion Master enter the palace!" ”

The next day, the Great Pilgrimage Meeting.

The new Ministry of Rites Shangshu Fu Yi asked for the removal of Buddhism and said: "The Buddha is in the Western Regions, and the demon is far away; The Chinese translation of Hu Shu is unbridled. As a result, disloyalty, unfilial piety, cutting hair and scolding the monarch's relatives, loitering and eating are easy to serve to evade rent. It is to confess the sins of the past, and to falsely regulate the blessings of the future; Give 10,000 dollars, hope for 10,000 times the reward, fast for one day, hope for 100 days of food.

Then they are foolish, seek merit in vain, do not fear the prohibition of punishment, and lightly violate the charter; Self-proclaimed punishment is Deweifu, all clouds are by the Buddha; Blessings and misfortunes all originate from the Buddha. Stealing the power of the master, the power of creation, it is harmful to the government, good and sad! Descended from Xi and agriculture, as for the Qin and Han dynasties, there is no Buddhism, and the monarch is loyal and loyal.

If it becomes a trend, it will confuse the people into monks and nuns, and recruit the displaced people to become King Kong, so that I can change the people's hearts and minds, and no longer obey the people and the country. Therefore, the minister implored the saint to send grace to his subordinates and punish the evil of the bhikshus, so as to show the world to the people, so that the people would know the prestige of the court and the benefits and disadvantages of the novices. ”

Wanning Palace passed the decree, edicted hundreds of officials to discuss their affairs, the court, the ministers were headed by the new head assistant Xiao Yuanzheng, the new military department squire Zhang Wanyu, Dazong Zheng Xia Hou Li and other courtiers seconded, and the six Shangshu were silent.

"Buddha, saint also, and Yi is not; Those who are not saints cannot be punished. Yi said: "The great Lun of a person is not as good as a monarch's father." The Buddha rebelled against his father with his heir, and resisted the Son of Heaven with his husband, and asked the saint to cure his sins. ”

"Buddhism is involved in the Floating Temple, you must be cautious, what does the Qiu Pavilion Master think?"

After the curtain was lowered, the phoenix-robed woman wearing a phoenix crown opened her mouth lightly and asked in a silent voice.

The new deputy cabinet of the Tianqiong Pavilion advocated that Daoyuan said that Yiyan was reasonable, and said at a glance: "The Tianqiong Pavilion governs the important affairs of Dajing Cultivation, and the novice monks are not enough to worry about, and the only one who can be worried is more than ten temples such as Guangji, Bailong, and Fanjing. ”

The household servant praised and said: "Rejuvenating the people's industry, cultivating the people's fields, supporting the old and raising children, and blessing the party, this is a good policy for the benefit of the country and the people, and the minister seconded the proposal." ”

The concubine was silent for a while, and said slowly: "Buddhism is a great sect of cultivation, and it is rash to expel it, for fear of causing disputes between the two religions. ”

Qiu Qianli bowed his head, raised his head and said in a deep voice: "If the Floating Sky Temple is held accountable, the Heavenly Dome Pavilion should take my Dajing Jiangshan Sheji as the priority, and kill it!" ”

The concubine bowed: "Good! ”

The evil shamen avoided the levies and did not keep the precepts.

Wanning Palace issued an edict with the seal of the emperor, and ordered Si Sha to tide the world's monks, nuns, and female crowns, and its diligent practitioners, and returned to the township, and the temples and Buddhist temples were all stopped.

Since then, Xuan Shi has been competing.
