Du He thought about it, but even though he had done all his brains, he didn't think it out. He snorted and fought with silence.

"It can be seen that it is a cliché to persuade people to do good deeds and accumulate virtues, and there is nothing strange about it." Xu Qilin said: "Look at the masters here, either relying on their talent, strategy, or proficiency in the scriptures and treatises, they can enter the house. Who can rely on the cause and effect of the previous life, without studying hard and striving to improve, and achieve today's achievements?"

Du He looked angry, feeling that these words seemed to mock him for being incompetent, not learning, and being ignorant, relying solely on his father's mercy to gain an official position.

Xu Qilin stopped looking at him, bowed to the guests present, and said, "You are arrogant and show your grace in front of you. After following the teacher's teachings, you are also a little talented and knowledgeable. You didn't want to have a verbal dispute. However, for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the reputation of your family's teacher, you have to stand up and argue. If you have any offense in your words, I hope you will forgive me if you are still young."

Kong Yingda had a good impression of Xu Qilin. Confucianism and Taoism were close to each other. In the future, Confucianism and Taoism would join forces to oppose Buddhism. Therefore, he slightly pointed his head and took the lead in expressing his opinion: "It is difficult to speak freely and understand the truth and make it difficult to speak a little bit, so it will not hurt you."

As the master, Changsun Wuji saw Lao Kong talking, and he smiled and said, "I don't want to have a banquet today, so I am so happy. Xu Cheng's words on behalf of his teacher are thought-provoking. He is worthy of being an immortal master of the Taoist sect. He admires and admires them very much."

Chu Liang was unhappy, but he was not easy to have an attack. He could only avoid the important and said lightly: "People can spread the Tao, but not the Tao can spread the people. The words of the saints made someone suddenly open up."

Several big shots spoke, and the tone was set. Everyone here agreed, and the atmosphere became more and more lively.

No one is an ordinary person, and he also knows that Xu Qilin has the advantage of taking advantage of the country and the people, and has brought out His Majesty and stood at the moral high point, which makes it difficult for people to refute, but may not be proficient in the classics.

But no one delves into the details, pretending to be confused and following the crowd is the way to deal with people.

What was even happier was that Xu Huang and other people in the Taoist sect, which was their wish to respect the Tao and suppress the Buddha. Xu Qilin, a new force, emerged. Regardless of whether or not the case was really submitted for advice, the spread of this matter would also be a major blow to the monks.

Du He suppressed his resentment and sat in the table and made a happy face. Changsun Wuji and Kong Yingda were present, but he couldn't have an attack.

At the same time, Du He was also regretful. What did Xu Qilin do for nothing? Wait until the Three Sects talk about it again, and don’t have to rush forward by yourself. Isn’t it better to see how Xu Qilin deal with the prince?

This incident is reported, will the Crown Prince ask Xu Qilin to participate in the lecture on the Three Sects?

This guy is obviously a troublemaker. If he talks nonsense and does not speak out easily and seriously, what if the monks are resentful and argue with him when they hear his remarks, wouldn’t it destroy the tone of the harmonious speech conference and damage His Royal Highness’s reputation?

In fact, it was not him who was worried so much. Everyone here was a human spirit, Changsun Wuji, Kong Yingda and others were even older foxes. How could they not think of this level?

"The Three-Dao Theory Conference, if the monk strikes an attack-" Kong Yingda wanted to speak but stopped, looked at Du He and said, "Why would you like to ask Your Highness the Crown Prince to change the list, don't let Xu Cheng attend the meeting!"

Du He looked at Kong Yingda, hesitated for a moment and was difficult to answer.

Changsun Wuji said: "If the debate between the economy and the country is difficult to argue, it may not be very good. Xu Cheng's young man's loyalty and his reputation as a teacher, it is difficult for him to tolerate him."

Du He finally nodded. His personal grudges could not resist the reputation of His Royal Highness. He decided to go back and advise the prince to kick Xu Qilin out of the list.

Xu Qilin also heard it and felt proud in his heart. This is the effect. If you are not afraid of me making trouble, just let me go and see who will be embarrassed in the end.

As for the remarks, Xu Qilin was just saying it. But these words would definitely reach His Majesty Li Er's ears. It was not his concern when it started or what excuses to implement it.

The reason why Buddhism is tolerated and supported by the feudal ruling class is not that the ruling class cannot see the various drawbacks of Buddhism, but that it adopts policies after weighing the pros and cons.

Because Buddhism advocates that people endure all suffering in this life and pursue the so-called happiness in the next life that does not exist at all, thus playing a role in stabilizing society. To put it bluntly, it is to numb the people's will to resist.

There is also how the monks will react to his remarks about the slander of Buddhism and opposition to Buddha. Xu Qilin felt that if he is smart, he would not take the opportunity to make things difficult for him. It is best to pretend to be deaf and be dumb.

Because, this is just a casual word in the banquet. If it is a big deal, it is known to the government and the public, and a tide will cause a tide, it will be harmful to the monks without any benefit.

"Drinking victory." Liu Zhenghe raised his glass to drink again, and was so impressed by Xu Qilin that he was overwhelmed.

"Drinking is better!" Xu Qilin felt relieved and raised his glass to drink.

Eat and drink, watch the singers sing and dance, Xu Qilin finally returned with great pleasure, lost gifts, and made a fortune. Well, he also made a reputation!

…………….

The sun shines through the gauze and sprinkles on Princess Changle's beautiful jade face. Her eyelashes tremble slightly, and Li Lizhi slowly opened her eyes and saw her husband sitting next to her, smiling foolishly at her.

He reached out and covered his mouth and yawned. Li Lizhi's lazy body was supported by her husband, took the tea served by the maid, took a few sips, and asked with a smile: "Have the banquet ended?"

"It's gone, it's gone." Changsun Chong couldn't help but smile and said, "It's a pity that my wife couldn't attend the banquet, and she couldn't hear and see the fun things in it."

"Then I will tell you to me!" Li Lizhi smiled and said, "What fun can you have just to eat and chat, listen to music and dance?"

Changsun laughed and said, "If there is no Xu Xiaolang on the table, it will be the same as usual and there is nothing to say. Today is different, and it is really funny. I still have to endure it on the table, so I can't help laughing happily now."

Li Lizhi's beautiful eyes flashed and she asked curiously: "Xu Xiaolang is still young, so why did he say so well? He must be a relay of Lu Yuxian's long words."

"That's true." Changsun nodded and began to tell what happened in the seat.

Li Lizhi frowned when she started to listen, and stopped as she grabbed the words and asked, "Xu Xiaolang is against Buddhism and slandering Buddhism? This is not a trivial matter. In front of everyone in the table, even if his teacher is a Taoist, he is a little reckless and bold."

Changsun smiled and said, "Madam, don't be impatient. When I continue talking, you will understand."

Li Lizhi nodded, picked up the teacup and sucked it slowly. However, after a while, she smiled uncontrollably and hurriedly handed the teacup to the maid's hand.

"Tathagata is a woman, Xu Xiaolang is so cramped, hahaha." Li Lizhi covered her little mouth and smiled so hard that her branches were trembling. "If there is a monk on the mat, why don't you fight with him?"

"A joke and joke, if the monk is entangled, he will fall into a bad position." Changsun Chong smiled dissatisfiedly, "I think Xu Xiaolang is also intentional. There is no monk on the table. He speaks loudly, so he probably doesn't want to attend the Three Churches Theory Conference."

Li Lizhi said oh and looked at her husband with inquiring eyes.

Changsun Chong pondered for a moment and said, "When Xu Xiaolang left, I talked on the road. He knew nothing about participating in the Three Churches' Theory and looked quite shocked. I think there should be something strange about this. Looking at Xu Xiaolang's attitude towards Du He, there seems to be a disagreement between the two."

Li Lizhi frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said, "Is it a bad intention to invite Xu Xiaolang to the meeting?"

Changsun Chong shook his head and said, "This is unknown. Just looking at Xu Xiaolang's reaction, he should think so."

"This is not good." Li Lizhi said slowly: "If you have any misunderstandings, don't let the rift deepen, and it will become a grudge again."

Changsun Chong said, "I will ask if I have the chance. If I can resolve it, it will be the best."

Li Lizhi said, "In other words, it's not considered an outsider, it's better to be harmonious and close."

Changsun smiled and said, "Even though Xu Xiaolang is young, his words are not inferior to people. He is bald everywhere. Who is the real monk? Haha, when you think of this sentence, you will laugh."

Li Lizhi also laughed and said angrily: "Why doesn't Xu Xiaolang keep a good word and arrange the monk like this?"

"He has made his debut, and he is a young man. It is reasonable to say that he is a bit of a rude derogatory Buddhism." Changsun Chong pulled up his beloved wife's jade hand, patted her gently, and said, "It's because Lu Yu Xian is very good at seeing the subtle, with profound Taoism and literary talent, which is admirable."

Oh, Li Lizhi looked at her husband coquettishly and said, "Let me tell me, what is the great argument for the immortal? "

Changsun Chong gently stroked his jade hand and told him in a leisurely manner, "The Tao is driven by people, but also by people", and the sighs of "The 480 temples of the Southern Dynasties".

Li Lizhi listened seriously and sighed from time to time.

"Haha, Xu Xiaolang is so cunning that he flatters his father as the Buddha in this world and has no words from everyone, which is also a must-win for praise."

"The Tao is brought about by people, and it is also carried out by people. This is a wonderful saying. The immortal has already seen the secret of the great way, so he is reluctant to pay homage to the true body and listen to the true words in person."

"The 480 temples in the Southern Dynasty, and so many towers and rain. What a poem, it is so thought-provoking about the past, and it is thought-provoking. I think of the Southern Dynasty's dedication to Buddha, and how pious it was, but the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, and it was just an empty dream."

Li Lizhi looked out the window and seemed to see the pavilions and towers in the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River. Her eyes were a little confused and she sighed in her mouth, "You can't remember the words of Master Xu Xiaolang, why are there only two sentences?"

Changsun smiled and sat side by side with his beloved wife, embraced her slender waist, and comforted her warmly: "When I go and let Xu Xiaolang recall his good memories, I must write all this poem and give it to my wife for appreciation."

Li Lizhi said angrily: "I am a little talented and knowledgeable, so how dare I appreciate the poems of immortals? If you say it is to admire it."

"Yes, yes, estee, estee." Changsun Chong smiled and coaxed his beloved wife.

Li Lizhi didn't know what she thought of, but suddenly burst into laughter, making Changsun confused.

"You said, Xu Chongrong is so quiet and gentle, how could he have such a weird and eccentric brother as Xu Xiaolang?" Li Lizhi finally stopped laughing, but there was still a smile on her face.

"This--" Changsun smiled and shook his head, saying, "Maybe there is no adult at home and no one cares about him. He is still as handsome as he is today!"

Li Lizhi nodded and said, "No need to say that she is smart, but she still needs to restrain herself."

"He is still young!" Changsun Chong said: "When you get older, you will naturally be stable."

Li Lizhi smiled and said, "I saw each other today, so I can decide on the matter of osmanthus fragrance, so as to avoid asking the aphrodisiac for a few more people."

"Don't worry, my wife. If you need fragrant dew in the future, I will ask him for it." Changsun Chong promised confidently, "There are also new things in the Xu family shops outside the city, so I will buy them often."

As he was speaking, the maid came in to report that Changsun Wuji asked Changsun to rush over and talk, but the cousins ​​were reluctant to part.

………………………….

Xu Qilin expected it to be right. In order to achieve the harmony and perfection of the conference, he, a chaotic slut, was kicked out of the attendee list the next day and was disqualified from attending the conference.

His remarks about being sarcastic and anti-Buddhist have not yet spread widely, and no defenders come to him to argue or block his home to protest.

It was very good, and life returned to normal. Xu Qilin continued to be busy in Dayingku and was preparing to set off for a business trip as soon as autumn came to the end of the year and headed to Luoyang.

Although Xu Qilin did not go to the Three Churches Conference to disrupt the situation, there was still discord in the conference.

I don’t know if it was inspired by Xu Qilin. After the Taoist lecturer Cai Huang finished speaking the Tao Te Ching in Buddhism, he did not attack the sutra in the anti-theory, but instead used the Tao and Buddhism to benefit the country and the people.

There have been many great debates on Buddhism and Taoism in history, and the fourteen more influential times, and the winning rate of Buddhism is significantly higher than that of Taoism. The Taoist priest Wang Fu made up the "Laozi's Sutra", saying that Sakyamuni became a Buddha because of Lao Tzu's enlightenment.

But the fabrication was groundless and unfounded, and the momentary loyalty was a hidden danger for the Taoist sect. In the Yuan Dynasty, it was eventually defeated and ruthlessly suppressed.

In terms of rituals, Taoism mainly takes Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" as its main theory, but it is not as numerous as Buddhist scriptures and complete in meaning.

Cai Huang talks about benefiting the country and the people, and avoids his strengths and attacks his weaknesses and gives full play to the inherent advantages of Taoism.

You should know that Taoism has indeed had in-depth research and mastery in medicine, numerology, divination (Book of Changes), alchemy (chemistry), etc.

For example, when traditional Chinese medicine was not clearly defined at that time, Taoism had the highest medical skills, as the so-called "nine out of ten ways of medicine".

Moreover, a lot of famous people in history are Taoist sects, such as Fan Li, Hua Tuo, Zhang Liang, Zu Chongzhi, Wang Xizhi, Sun Simiao, Wu Daozi, Li Bai, and even Wei Zheng, the prime minister of the dynasty.

There are so many historical celebrities who are Taoism, which is inseparable from Taoism's entry into the world. Monks are born and practiced in the world and stayed in the temple. They do not care about the changes of dynasties or the chaos of wars, and they do not care about the world.

Cai Huang's change of strategy was obvious. Although Hui Jing's vocabulary was extremely good and knowledgeable, given the actual situation, he could only persuade good and educate, so that Cai Huangyin had the upper hand.

Of course, in the end, His Highness the Crown Prince laughed happily, sat together and leaped happily, and ordered the Sun to say: "It is not enough to be happy." This declared the successful end of the conference.
Chapter completed!
