Chapter 693: The Toughest Enemy
"People cannot see hope or opportunity to stand out. They will place their hopes on a more vague illusion. This illusion is likely to be Buddhism, but the interests between Buddhism and the powerful families are always unclear. They have always had connections. Whether it is Buddhism or studying, they cannot escape the control of aristocratic families. This is the most terrifying thing."
Li Zheng said again: "Because their interests are the present and the present, and will never be the future."
After saying that, Li Zheng said loudly: "Your Majesty will be in the next month for the tenth year of Zhenguan. Can you reopen the imperial examination? And you will also need to re-establish the imperial examination system. The bad habit of submitting the examination should also change."
Li Shimin remembered that Li Zheng had handed a letter to scold the court, "I remember you said in the letter that the bad habit of submitting papers will only lead to corruption?"
Li Zheng asked back, "What do you think of Your Majesty?"
Li Shimin nodded and said, "I will think about it carefully."
"Since the matter of building a bookstore has been decided, as the supervisor of the bookstore, should we calculate the salary? The salary has not been paid for several years."
Li Shimin's eyes, which were originally full of passion, suddenly became cold.
Li Zheng said again: "If we talk about it, we always have to give the money in place, right?"
Li Shimin smiled disdainfully and turned around and left.
It is indeed a very melancholy thing that the emperor owes money and is too melancholy.
How can you be like this as an emperor? It's so unkind.
Looking at Wang Ding beside him, Wang Ding bowed and smiled.
"Eunuch Wang, do you think Your Majesty will pay back the money?"
Wang Ding whispered: "I dare not speculate on the holy will."
“…”
Wang Ding said again: "Since you want to expand the printing business, what is the first step in Chang'an Order?"
Li Zheng said to Wang Ding: "There is still an open space south of Jingyang. We can expand the printing workshop along the river channel. Leaving ten hectares should be able to expand the scale of our current printing workshop by about five times."
Wang Ding thought about it and said, "Do you understand, do you need personnel? You can go to the Ministry of Works to draw personnel."
Li Zheng shook his head, "This time, we can't mobilize people from the court, we can do it ourselves."
Wang Ding nodded and said, "If you need anything to do, just say it to Chang'an Order."
Li Zheng said to Wang Ding: "I expanded the seal shop, which is equivalent to starting a war with the five surnames. Can more Longwu soldiers be drawn to guard Jingyang?"
Wang Ding nodded, "I'll do it now."
Li Zheng lifted the fishing rod again, the earthworms on the hook had been eaten, and the fish had already been unhooked and ran away.
"Fishing is getting harder these days." Li Zheng went home with a bamboo basket and a fishing rod.
In Chang'an, Princess Fangling got a case file, which was written by the Bian Machine.
Bian Ji wrote down the dialogue between Tang Xuanzang and Li Zheng.
Looking at the words on the case file, "People worship not Buddha but their own desires."
Seeing this sentence, Princess Fang Ling jumped straight and pointed to the key points of Buddhism.
This sentence can ruin Buddhism's piety with all its deeds.
What's wrong with Li Zheng's words?
Why do people worship Buddha? Buddhism claims to be pure in the six senses, and what it can give is desire.
Is this kind of Buddhism still pure?
Such contradictions can even destroy the reputation of Buddhism.
Killing someone is just like this.
Princess Fangling looked at the following words to open up people's wisdom and expand the number of printed books. When people understand the importance of reading more and more, fewer and fewer people go to temples.
Barbarians who have no culture, no science, and no knowledge are more likely to be bewitched by Buddhism, so they are not studying, working, and are devoted to Buddhism.
Such barbarians are more likely to be manipulated.
Deciphering the weaknesses of Buddhism in one sentence.
Princess Fang Ling took a deep breath, put down the case file in her hand, looked at the candlelight in front of her, and whispered: "Li Zheng is going to destroy Buddhism!"
Several monks on the side looked a little panicked, "Your Highness, what should we do?"
Princess Fang Ling nodded and said, "Li Zheng is a very strong opponent. He lives a self-disciplined life and is not close to women. The strongest opponent in the world is an opponent with no weaknesses."
After saying that, Princess Fang Ling fell silent again, looked at the night outside the window and said, "It's been so many years since I have seen countless men. This is the first time I have seen someone like Li Zheng."
The monk on the side said coldly, "Do you want to send a killer to kill Li Zheng? All of them will be done."
Princess Fangling looked at the monks beside her.
The monks immediately lowered their heads when facing Princess Fangling and did not dare to look directly at them.
"Li Zheng wants to deal with Buddhism, but there is Li Shimin behind him. Li Shimin even wants to control Buddhism. When Li Shimin wrote a decree to support Taoism and control monks, he could see that Li Shimin also wanted to curb Buddhism."
"Your Majesty has long been disgusted with us."
Princess Fang Ling smiled as if she had said it, "I don't know how Lizhi has built up her blessings in her previous life and was able to get married to a smart person like Li Zheng. As an aunt, I am happy for Lizhi."
Looking at the monks in front of you who claim to be noble, Princess Fangling knew clearly what kind of person they were.
They are too far apart from Li Zheng.
A feeling of powerlessness rose in my heart. I had seen Li Zheng twice, once in front of Zongzheng Temple. When I saw Li Zheng at that time, I could feel that the child's eyes were very clear and unmoved by his beauty.
Even if you do something a little on weekdays, many men will look at you.
The thoughts of those men will make them lose their thinking and thus control them well.
The second time I met Li Zheng was when the prince was married.
At that time, Li Zheng still looked at himself with a clear look, and there was no coveting in the eyes of other men.
Once Li Zheng can't be controlled, he will become his most difficult enemy.
Everything at the moment confirms my original thoughts.
Princess Fang Ling said to the monk beside her: "I will write a letter to Lizhi. No matter what, I am also Lizhi's aunt."
A few days later, Tang Xuanzang left Dacien Temple and came to the outside of Jingyang Village again.
After wandering outside the village for a long time, Tang Xuanzang and the guards here explained their purpose.
Li Yifu went to report to Li Zheng in person.
Li Zheng, who was eating tea eggs with Li Tai, was also a little surprised when he heard that Tang Xuanzang was coming.
Li Tai asked curiously: "What else is he here to do?"
Li Yifu replied: "I didn't say anything."
Li Zheng sighed helplessly: "Let him go to the horse circle."
"Here."
After eating a tea egg, Li Zheng said, "Your Highness, should you be with me?"
Li Tai said: "No, I want to go back to Chang'an. The envoys from all countries will come on the first day of the New Year. As a prince, I will also be present."
