The night sky in the northwest is quiet and high, with stars all over the sky, dotted with the sky that makes people intoxicated.

Sun Zude, Bao Zheng and Cai Ting took a few followers and walked to Yuanjue Temple in the west of the city.

Zhang Fonu is still the same Zhang Fonu, but he no longer has the gangsters and the confusion and shrinkage of the past, his eyes are pure and calm. He is still him, and he is no longer him.

President Han and Cao Law stood outside the door, motionless. From that day on, they were Zhang Fonu's two great guardians, and they were always around him. Zhang Fonu never gave them instructions or drove them away, and let them act independently. Sometimes when they talked, Zhang Fonu still called Cao Law the head of the family and Han Sengzheng the president. Both of them were frightened and did not dare to take it. Zhang Fonu just smiled, did not explain, and did not change his name.

How dare the two of them let the Buddha call him like this? They were so anxious that they went to find Master Qisong to solve their doubts. Qisong did not have any Zen opportunity and told him bluntly that for Zhang Fonu, the current name of the president and the head of the family, it was just a title, and had no connection with what the name of the world meant. If you don’t call this name, you are a Buddha or a Bodhisattva, it is the same for Zhang Fonu. Only then did the two realize that Zhang Fonu had already realized that he had already transcended his world.

Seeing the three officials from this state coming, Cao Law and President Han hurriedly saluted.

Sun Zude said: "Please report it to me, let's come and talk to the king a few gossip."

Cao Law agreed and turned around and entered the temple, leaving President Han with three people outside.

After a while, Cao Law came out and led the three of them into the temple.

Zhang Fonu sat on the cushion and saw Sun Zude and the other two coming in, clasped his hands together to ask.

The three of them hurriedly saluted: "Disturbate the king, forgive me for your sins."

Zhang Fonu was a county prince officially appointed by the court and had a very high official rank. Although the kings and princes of foreign officials were not worth much from Han officials, Zhang Fonu was not a foreign official. It was just that everything started to come, and etiquette followed the power. Many locals here regarded the King of Xiping as a foreign official.

Sun Zude told Zhang Fonu about the recent situation and said, "King, now more than 30,000 people have gathered around here, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating every day, and everything is not easy. I also asked the king to preach to the believers. The government has limited staff, and there may be any mistakes in these days, so everything is left to you. Ordering the Qianyuan Festival is a great merit, so don't cause trouble."

Zhang Fonu said together: "The prefect is at ease, and I will teach the believers tomorrow the Dharma ritual will not cause chaos."

Speaking of the food and drink of tens of thousands of people, Zhang Fonu asked Sun Zude to find President Han, and in his own name, he would recruit the power of the Buddhist community here and solve some of it by the people themselves. This is when doing merit, many wealthy families are willing to open warehouses and release grain, and send rice and flour to believers. Of course, it is better to erect a merit monument afterwards. This is the matter of the Shazhou government and the monks and relics.

Zhang Fonu didn't know much about these common things, and he didn't think about it. After chatting for a while, the three of them said goodbye.

When he arrived outside the door, Cai Ting said to President Han: "President, let me speak with you."

The supervisory and officials in mainland prefectures and counties generally do not allow the provincial officials to serve on the part-time position. Shazhou is special, and there are few officials willing to come here, so the judge will be the part-time position. As the supervisory and officials, all kinds of local associations are under their supervision, and President Han is of course no exception.

The three of them were led to the room next to them, and the guests and hosted the guests and came to tea.

President Han said: "I don't know what instructions do the official call the young man? Recently, believers gathered, thank you for your hard work."

Cai Ting smiled and looked at President Han's expression. After a while, he said, "President, I have something to tell you. Please make an idea together. As the envoy of the supervisor, the court made it clear that it was just informing the affairs of the company and did not arrange it."

President Han hurriedly said: "If you have any questions, please tell me the judge, and the younger ones will do whatever you want."

"Discussion is just a discussion, and the supervisor does not interfere with the affairs of the society." Cai Ting smiled, "According to the court's laws, there are a few things that cannot be done in the world. The first is that it cannot involve education."

President Han was stunned: "What the official means is that the court law cannot be opened in our society?"

Cai Ting nodded: "Yes, this is true according to the laws of the court. - President, don't worry, I'm not going to let you disperse the society, but discuss what to do, and let you continue to do it, and it's not against the laws of the court."

President Han was confused. The club was not allowed to involve education. Most of the communities in Shazhou were to be dissolved. Of course, there is now King Xiping, and everyone has a direction to offer Buddha, so there is nothing to disband the Buddhist club. However, many temples are offered by Buddha clubs. How can they survive without the Buddhist club? Destroying temples and Buddhas will damage great merits.

The merits are empty and ethereal. Xu Ping and the priests do not believe that there is a Buddha kingdom in the West. But in other words, merits represent the hearts of the people, which is another matter. Destroying temples and Buddhas in the Buddha kingdom will lead to a great loss of people's hearts.

During the Zhenzong period, Buddhism was widely popular among the scholars and officials. At that time, a high monk from Qiantang established the Pure Land Society, and the head of the society was Wang Dan. There were more than 100 scholars and officials participating in the Pure Land Society, and more than 1,000 people with various identities. Wang Dan was the head of the Pure Land Society, which was not that he was a devout Buddhist, but that he had an idea at that time, that was to use the role of Buddhism to purify people's hearts to educate the world. This matter ended without any failure, and with the rise of Confucianism, no one mentioned it again.

There is a precedent for the Pure Land Society. Xu Ping is not allowed to establish a society based on the religion. Therefore, this matter cannot be forced, and he can only take it step by step, and he cannot resort to force. Xu Ping's purpose is not to prevent social unrest and even rebellion from using religious society. Although some people in the Song Dynasty developed the long-standing White Lotus Society into the White Lotus Society, which was passed down to later generations, and became the White Lotus Society, and rebelled many times in the Yuan and Ming dynasties. That was a problem of the regime, not a problem of religious society. Without the White Lotus Sect, there would be other religions, which were essentially social contradictions, and the White Lotus Sect was just a carrier. Many religious associations in this era had the origin of the White Lotus Society. Lushan White Lotus Society is a formal religious activity, not a cult.

Religious associations are not allowed to be completely incorporated into the system of religion, especially Buddhism, into the system that extends to prefectures and counties. In this way, the secularization of religion is completed and religion is not allowed to be independent of social management.

Cai Ting had a solution in his mind, and guided President Han slowly and carefully to his ideas bit by bit. This club has a great influence. As long as President Han does his own way, other clubs will be easier to handle.

This method is to incorporate all Buddhist temples in Shazhou into the management system of the Monklushi Department. A sufficient scale of the department can be lower than the requirements in the mainland. For example, if there are 100 rooms, you can have a department. Other small temples are all branches of these department temples and they send people to preside over them. The folk believers should do their best to do their good deeds and no longer establish a society, but to the nearby temples and organize them uniformly. All the houses of all the houses are subject to the ten-way abbot system for easy management by the government. Of course, the corresponding specifications are also high, and it is easy to obtain the purple-robed Dharma name, and a hierarchy system will be divided into later. Cai Ting promoted it, which is the method needed by Xu Ping.
