By the Huangqu River, Li Xiu and Ma Ye sat firmly on Diaoyutai. It seemed that Li Jin was not defeated by the trouble of fishing. Although burning Lingyan Temple was a disaster, this Lingyan Temple was actually a place of dirty and dirty. It usually bullies people by bullying others and has done many things to force buying and selling. With Li Xiu's understanding of his son, it is probably that Lingyan Temple was hit by Li Jin and the others when he was doing something illegal. As a result, these little guys with hot tempers ran to Lingyan Temple to cause trouble in anger.

If Inspiration Temple was just a clean Buddhist temple, Li Xiu would probably feel guilty and even stood up to apologize at this time. However, since the other party was not a good man, he would not have any psychological burden. He was even thinking that as the Buddhist power expanded, it would sooner or later affect the rule of the court.

This is not Li Xiuqi's worry. In fact, more than a hundred years later, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty had weakened. However, after Emperor Wuzong of Tang ascended the throne, he still launched a large-scale destruction of Buddha, becoming one of the "Three Martials Destruction of Buddha". Because the Buddhists had a lot of land and property at that time, and the overhaul of temple repairs wasted countless money, which had shaken the foundation of the rule of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, if the Buddha did not destroy it, it would probably be that the Buddha would destroy the Tang Dynasty.

Emperor Wuzong of Tang Dynasty also had a very rough method of destroying Buddhism. Countless Buddhist temples were demolished, the property of the temple was reclaimed to the national treasury, hundreds of thousands of monks and nuns were forced to return to secular life, and many Buddhists were killed because of this destruction of Buddha reached its climax in the fifth year of Huichang, so it was called "Huichang Dharma Difficulty" by Buddhism. As a result, this destruction of Buddha caused an extremely serious blow to Buddhism. I failed to recover for decades. Later, I finally recovered some vitality, but encountered the destruction of Buddha by Shizong of Later Zhou. In addition, the strict management of monks and Taoists in the Northern Song Dynasty, which led to the complete trampling of the Central Plains by the imperial power, and there was no possibility of turning over again.

Although Li Xiu was not very clear about the history of destroying Buddhism, he also knew something. At this time, he thought about the impact of Buddhism on the court, and was also thinking about solutions to Buddhism. Speaking of which, when Xuanzang left, he was determined to strengthen the Buddhist sect. Although Li Xiu admired his courage and wisdom, the two sides had different positions. He would never favoritism in this major event that concerns the country and nation!

Just as Li Xiu was thinking, he suddenly heard a sound of horse hooves coming from afar. Then Li Jin came trotting on a high-headed horse. Although he was young, he liked to ride a high-headed horse. He never rode the ponies prepared for the children. Of course, he learned riding and shooting with Princess Pingyang or the guards in the mansion since he was a child. Ma Ye also occasionally guided him, and now he is a disciple of Xue Rengui, and riding and shooting is far beyond ordinary people.

However, Li Jin was a little dazed when riding a horse today. At first, he still jogged. However, when he saw Li Xiu and Ma Ye by the river, he tightened the reins and controlled the horse to move forward step by step. His little face was full of nervousness. Speaking of which, Li Jin was exactly nine years old this year. If he was considered a Xu Sui by the Tang Dynasty, he should be ten years old. In the eyes of the Tang Dynasty, he could no longer be considered a child, and he could even barely be called a teenager.

Li Jin was strong since childhood and had never even had much illness. Moreover, as the son of Li Xiu and Princess Pingyang, he ate well since childhood and naturally looked taller than ordinary children. Although he was not as good as his elder brother Ping Anlang, he had reached Li Xiu's chin now. It is estimated that he will be more tall than Li Xiu in the future. Moreover, his appearance also inherited the advantages of his parents. He rode on a horse and looked like a handsome little guy with beautiful eyes.

"Come here quickly, how do you look like?" Ma Ye saw Li Jin in the distance and did not dare to approach him. He glared at the moment. He always thought that men should look like men and dared to do things, so he was naturally a little angry at Li Jin's timid and entangled look.

Seeing that Ma Ye got angry, Li Jin immediately jumped down, then trotted to Ma Ye, and then held Ma Ye's arm with a thick face and said coquettishly: "Grandpa Ma, grandson has caused a big disaster this time, but I know Grandpa Ma, you love me the most, so I will definitely not blame grandson!"

Li Jin knew that he was not begging Li Xiu, and Ma Ye always liked him the most and went to him for everything, so he was the first to ask Ma Ye for help. As long as Ma Ye nodded, even if the father next to him wanted to punish him, he would be dissuaded by Ma Ye.

"Hmph, you're useless to save anyone this time. You've learned to set fire with others. Will you still kill someone next time?" Li Xiu glared at this time and scolded. Although Li Jin burned the Inspiration Temple this time to eliminate harm for the people, setting fire is not a good thing after all. The court's law also stipulates that arson is a serious crime, so Li Xiu doesn't want his son to do such things again.

"Father, I'm wronged. If the monks from Inspiration Temple were not too bullying, we wouldn't have set fire to their temple!" Li Jin saw his father angry and immediately felt wronged for himself.

"What the hell is going on? Is that Inspiration Temple bullying you?" Ma Ye interrupted and asked. He had already asked Li Shimin to resign and retire to retire, but Li Shimin has not yet agreed, so the Feinusi is still in charge of the name of him. If he wants, he can collect a batch of evil deeds done by Inspiration Temple at any time.

"Grandpa Ma, don't know that there is not a good thing in the bald donkeys in the Inspiration Temple. They have forced to buy and sell, and there are almost nothing they don't do. The people in Chang'an City are also deeply hurt. This morning, while I was traveling with a few brothers in Chang'an City, I happened to encounter a few rascals who went to collect debts from a widow. At that time, we saw that the widow was pitiful, so we drove away the rascals and asked the reason."

When Li Jin said this, his little face also showed an angry expression, and then he spoke again: "Later we learned that this woman had to borrow the Changshengku of Inspiration Temple because her husband was sick before. As a result, her husband died of illness in the end. He, a woman, wanted to pull a pair of children, so he was naturally unable to repay the loan. As a result, the monks in the temple instigated these ruffians to come to collect debts every day, and even snatched her children and sold them to pay off the debt. We didn't expect that there were such evil monks under the feet of the emperor. Then he broke into Inspiration Temple in anger and burned their temple with fire!"

"It's so burned!" Master Ma also slapped his thighs when he heard this, but this made Li Jin's eyes lit up immediately, and he felt that he had finally found a backer.

"Uncle Ma, don't be fooled by this kid. He definitely didn't tell the truth!" As the saying goes, "No one knows a son is better than a father." Although Li Jin's reason is very vivid and reasonable, Li Xiu keenly discovered that Li Jin must not tell the truth, at least he did not tell the real reason!
