Although the most prosperous places of Buddhism are in Chang'an and Luoyang, Shaolin plays an important role. During the Northern Wei Dynasty, Bodhidharma, the 28th generation disciple of Sakyamuni, came to Shaolin and gathered a wide range of believers.
When Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Buddha, the Shaolin Temple was seriously damaged. However, it was rebuilt later. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty gave the Shaolin Temple 100 hectares of land, and the Shaolin Temple became a famous temple.
In the early Tang Dynasty, the thirteen monks of Shaolin Temple were rewarded by Emperor Taizong for their meritorious service to the Tang Dynasty. They gave Tian Qianqing and called Shaolin monks monk soldiers. From then on, Shaolin Temple became famous all over the world and was known as the first famous temple in the world.
"Master Huiyuan, this is Chang'an city. There are hundreds of Buddhist temples and about 8000 monks in the city!" the debater on one side respectfully explained to the kind-hearted old monk around him.
Master Huiyuan bowed his head and said, "Amitabha, after the two martial arts destroyed the Buddha, my Buddhist family suffered heavy losses. The Buddhist family has such a prosperous situation in Chang'an City, and all of you in Chang'an City have made great contributions!"
The defense took the opportunity and said, "unfortunately, hundreds of other schools have seen the momentum of our Buddhist recovery and are subject to changes and obstacles. Especially the Mohist school, which has discredited the Buddhist school many times in the ink magazine. It is really punishable. The Mohist school can never escape the crisis of the Buddhist school."
Master Huiyuan didn't answer. Instead, he calmly looked at the defense machine. For a moment, the defense machine had a feeling of being seen through. He couldn't help lowering his head with a guilty heart.
"Buddha crossing is destined for people, not sinners, and the origin of Shaolin Temple is built by the eminent monk Tianzhu. The poor monk's mentor Bodhidharma is also from the western regions. Do you really think the poor monk has never heard of the secret art of Yoga?" master Huiyuan said calmly.
The defense machine couldn't help blushing and was speechless.
"Debate, your Buddha nature is good, but your mind is lack of training. Don't be jealous and angry, and let the Buddha's heart be covered with dust." master Huiyuan pointed out.
However, the defense machine is young and proud. When he heard the Enlightenment of master Huiyuan, he couldn't help but say in his heart: "Shaolin has saved the Tang emperor, respected his status and rewarded many believers, and believers are all over Luoyang. Naturally, he doesn't care about these secular things. However, there are 300 temples around Chang'an City, how fierce the competition among believers is, and how can Shaolin Temple live a moist life."
Master Huiyuan looked at the green and red face of the debater and shook his head regretfully.
At this moment, all the horses were out, and the guard of honor continued for several times. Pound came to the east gate first. When he saw the waiting master Huiyuan, he couldn't help but brighten his eyes and said, "master Huiyuan has come all the way. It's hard all the way. Your Majesty specially ordered slaves to meet him."
After Li Shimin ascended the throne, he visited Shaolin. Pound followed him personally. Naturally, he met master Huiyuan.
"It's benefactor Pang. I've been nagging a lot." master Huiyuan came here this time to express his feelings to Li Shimin. Naturally, he would not refuse this kindness and immediately follow pound.
When the grand guard of honor rushed to the palace, the whole East city became a sensation.
"This monk is actually the abbot of Shaolin Huiyuan. He is a generation of eminent monks! The eminent monks must come here for the sake of the proposal to destroy the Buddha in the hall."
"Shaolin is a famous Buddhist temple. It is the ancestral court of Buddhist Zen. It has saved your majesty. In this way, the Buddhist family must be safe and secure!"
"Not necessarily. Now most of the scholars are against Buddhism, and Buddhism's double fists are difficult to defeat four hands!"
……………………
For a while, the people talked, and many people often felt in the hearts of Dongcheng gate. In a short time, Dongcheng gate witnessed the appearance of hundreds of schools one after another.
The gossip about the dispute among hundreds of families makes everyone happy.
When the news spread to many temples, many monks immediately breathed a sigh of relief. With the name of Shaolin Huiyuan master and Shaolin's kindness to Li Shimin, the Buddhist family may be able to turn the crisis into safety. Otherwise, even if the Buddhist family has a deep foundation, it will not be able to withstand such twists and turns in just 200 years.
They got the news. In the court hall, Fu Yi can firmly advocate the destruction of the Buddha, which is not a worry. However, the idea of saving the Buddha put forward by mojiazi is extremely sinister. Once it is adopted by the court, the Buddha may always be controlled by others and put a tight hoop curse on his head. Now all his hopes rest on master Huiyuan.
"This is a prayer bead left by our teacher Dharma. It is very spiritual. Today I present it to the supreme emperor in the hope that he can recover as soon as possible." master Huiyuan stood in front of Li Yuan who had already suffered a stroke and recited the Buddha's name with a solemn face.
Since his stroke, Li Yuan's condition has become more and more serious except for his appearance in the military parade. Now he can't speak and move. The full screen maid eunuch takes care of him.
"Buddha's prayer beads!" the people were moved when they heard the speech. Even if the name of Buddha is a person who does not believe in Buddhism, it is also a well-known name. Li Shimin naturally knows how valuable a Buddha's prayer bead is. It can be said that it is the treasure of Shaolin temple. Now master Huiyuan took it out without hesitation.
"Thank you for your generosity," Li Shimin said gratefully.
Paralyzed in bed, although Li Yuan could not speak and could not move, he held the prayer beads tightly in his hands. Although he did not believe in Buddhism, and when he was in power, he also issued an imperial edict to restrict Buddhism. At this moment, his life has come to an end. His heart is full of fear of death. Naturally, he will use the prayer beads of dharma as a life-saving straw.
"Amitabha, the emperor's blessings are all in the sky. I will pray for the emperor day and night in front of the Buddha." master Huiyuan read the Buddha's name.
Li Shimin on one side thanked him repeatedly: "master Huiyuan has profound Buddhism. My father and Emperor must be lucky. People have their own appearance."
It is well known that master Huiyuan came to Beijing to destroy the Buddha. Unexpectedly, master Huiyuan didn't mention the killing of the Buddha. After visiting Li Yuan, master Huiyuan came to the legislative hall and presented another treasure of Shaolin Temple.
"I learned that the empress has always been angry and ill, so I specially brought Shaolin's most precious pill. Although this pill can't cure the empress's condition, it can cultivate solid, which is very good for the empress's condition." master Huiyuan respectfully handed over an exquisite treasure box, opened it slightly, and suddenly a smell of medicine filled the whole Lizheng hall.
"Da Huan Dan?" Li Shimin couldn't help but say, "I personally experienced the effect of Da Huan Dan. When I was chased by Wang Shichong and injured, I took Da Huan Dan and soon recovered."
The eldest grandson empress couldn't help but look happy and said, "thank you, master Huiyuan."
She has always been weak and ill. If Da huandan can make her strong, it can naturally reduce the chance of getting sick.
Master Huiyuan prayed for Li Yuan and offered medicine for the empress changsun. Naturally, all the princes and princesses took the opportunity to be filial. Princess Changle and Merton naturally followed in the palace. Merton, who had been observing master Huiyuan, couldn't help sighing. Master Huiyuan didn't mention the matter of killing the Buddha, but used human feelings to the extreme. If there were no accidents, the discussion on killing the Buddha this time would surely be over.
