Chapter 16 Chapter Three Maitreya Heresy

The wine cellar is three feet square, whether it is big or small.There are three or four hundred altars of Xuejian incense, stacked on wooden frames, arranged in five rows, connected end to end.An oil lamp was lit beside the stone steps. Yan Fei stepped down the stone steps, picked up a jug of wine, fondled it fondly and said: The real way to make money on the first floor is to sell this treasure. Tuobagui was looking at An Yuqing and Liu Yu with burning eyes, his expression was cold and his attitude was not friendly. Yan Fei turned his head to An and Liu and said: Please wait here for a while.

Liu Yu hadn't completely healed from his internal injuries, so he was exhausted early. He sat down on the stone steps with his buttocks, and said with a smile: "Please go ahead, both of you!"Then he said to An Yuqing: "Miss An, you'd better stand far away, otherwise if I suspect that you are plotting something wrong, if you have to greet with a sharp knife, it will hurt your kindness." An Yuqing was looking at Tuobagui's eyes secretly, knowing that she was in a desperate situation, and Liu Yu even had the intention of guarding the only way out, feeling bad, but it was too late to regret.I had no choice but to put on a disdainful expression of indifference, hummed softly, and moved to a corner.

For a long time, relying on her alluring beauty, she has always been able to get preferential treatment and advantage from men, but the three men in front of her seem to turn a blind eye to her beauty, especially Tuobagui, when looking at her, it is like seeing her. A dead thing, without any emotional fluctuations, this person is either a cold and cruel person by nature, or a terrifying person with a strong heart. Tuobagui was confused by Liu Yu's words, and he couldn't figure out the relationship between the three of them. At this time, Yan Fei held the altar with one hand and put his other hand on his shoulder. walk over.He couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in his heart. Since Yan Fei left, no other person has ever shown such intimacy to him, and he will not accept others doing this.

Yan Fei said: Are you injured? Tuoba Gui's eyes were full of murderous intent, he nodded and said: "They somehow guessed that I was hiding in the Xianbei gang, and suddenly mobilized people to attack from all directions. Fortunately, I was always on guard. Come here.If you hadn't told me that there was such a hiding place, I would have died. Yan Fei could imagine the tragedy and horror of the massacre, but Tuobagui was full of displeasure, just because he couldn't bear to look back. The two came to the other end, Tuobagui said: Who are they? Yan Fei explained again from the beginning, Tuobagui finally smiled, and said: Xie Xuan is indeed a bit capable.ha!Do you want to be a human being just walking and sleeping with the jar in your arms?

Yan Fei put down the wine jar, turned around and walked back with Tuobagui, Liu Yu, who was sitting on the stone steps, looked at Tuobagui with sparkling eyes, and Tuobagui returned him unceremoniously with a scrutinizing gaze.Although Yan Fei knows that the two will cooperate happily because of the common goal, he still feels the hidden rivalry between the two; he doesn't know whether it is because of the difference between Hu and Han, or each realizes that the other will be his rival in the future.It was a strange feeling that could not be explained.As far as the current situation of the two is concerned, Liu Yugu is an insignificant young player in the Southern Jin Dynasty, and Tuoba Gui's strength is far from enough to accomplish anything, but now both of them can control the development of the overall situation.

Clenched hands. Tuoba Gui smiled and said: Brother Liu, well done! Yan Fei next to him said in a low voice: Brother Liu, don't take offense, I didn't hide him. Both of them knew that Yan Fei didn't want An Yuqing to hear what he said, so they couldn't help but look at An Yuqing at the same time. Tuoba Gui let go of his hand, and said in a low voice: "Brother Liu thinks it's okay to make big things happen without sticking to small things?" Liu Yu said lightly: "Taiping witch, it's not a pity to kill her." Although An Yuqing, who was standing in a corner, couldn't hear their conversation, but seeing the two of them staring at her blankly, of course she knew there was no good way, so she secretly raised her spirits and prepared to respond.

Yan Fei understood that the question and answer between the two had already sounded An Yuqing's death knell, so he sighed secretly and said: I will decide this matter.Then he raised his voice and said: Miss An, don't worry, we will draw the map silently according to the previous promise, and then find a way to send the lady away. Don't break your promise. For the first time, An Yuqing sincerely thanked a person.Yan Fei is obviously different from Liu Yu and Tuoba Gui, at least he promises a thousand gold, and he will not regret it under any circumstances. Since Yan Fei refused to speak, Liu Yu and Tuobagui had no choice but to sell him despite their reluctance.

Tuoba Gui shook his head and walked away with a wry smile, making a silent protest. Liu Yu said dejectedly: I have paper and pens for drawing in my luggage, so I can do whatever Brother Yan says! Xie An allowed his daughter to marry Wang Guobao, a treacherous minister and traitor. The reason why he agreed at the time was that Wang Guobao's evil deeds did not show up and he wanted to please his daughter; He had no choice but to agree to Wang Tanzhi's marriage proposal for his son. In the past one or two years, Wang Guobao and Sima Daozi have had a close relationship, the former's concubine is the latter's concubine, the two have similar tastes, they are both addicts to wine and sex, and they have introduced each other as confidants.In addition, both of them resented Xie An and were jealous of Xie Xuan for different reasons, and the situation intensified.

Wang Guobao's dissatisfaction with Xie An stems from the fact that Xie An dislikes his character, doesn't use him highly, and only wants him to be an unobtrusive Shang Shulang.Wang Guobao pretended to be a son of Langya Wang's famous family, and he always wanted to be a clean official, but he couldn't get what he wanted, so he held a grudge against Xie An and tried every means to attack Xie's family.In this North-South War, both Wang Guobao and Sima Daozi were excluded from the anti-enemy army, and the resentment in their hearts can be imagined. Xie An stepped up the stone steps of the main hall with a heavy heart, and a noble lady came out from the gate. At first glance, she seemed to be thirty years old, but upon closer inspection, she was no longer young, and the corners of her eyes were full of unconcealable wrinkles; Although she is merciless, it can still be seen that when she was young, she was like a fish and a wild goose. She looked like a beauty, with a dignified and elegant demeanor, and she had the demeanor of a lady.

Xie An said in astonishment: Dao Yun!It was you who came. Xie Daoyun is the talented woman most respected by outsiders in the Xie family. She is praised as a successor to the former ancient talented women Ban Jieyu, Ban Zhao, Cai Wenji, Zuo Fen and others.She is Xie An's most beloved niece and Xie Xuan's older sister.She also married into the Wang family. Her husband is Wang Ningzhi, the second son of the great contemporary calligrapher Wang Xizhi. However, this marriage was not happy. Xie Anke could tell from the gloomy look in her eyes every time she went back to her mother's house, but Xie Daoyun never talked about her husband. Can't figure out where the problem is.

She is well-known in Jiangzuo for her attainments in talking about metaphysics.Every time Xie An saw her, he would secretly sigh in his heart why she didn't give birth to a boy, then the Xie family would be more able to withstand the wind and rain, instead of relying on her younger brother Xie Xuan to support him alone. Xie Daoyun stepped forward and took Xie An's sleeve, moved to the door to speak, and said: "The national treasure vented all the resentment that the second uncle left him on Pingting, alas!"Let her live here for a while! Xie An's eyes flashed coldly, and he said in a deep voice, "Does that beast dare to be rude to Pingting?" Xie Daoyun smiled wryly and said: With Second Uncle here, he hasn't dared to hit anyone yet, but he tore up Pingting's most beloved embroidery, which is really worrying. Xie An replied calmly, and said lightly: If the animal doesn't come to apologize to Pingting in person, don't think about letting Pingting go back to Wang's house. Xie Daoyun was silent for a moment, then said softly: Second Uncle knows that the Holy Majesty has approved the use of the national treasury to build the Maitreya Temple to welcome the second Maitreya of the Maitreya Sect. up. Xie An's heart trembled violently, like a monstrous wave. Sima Yao, the lord of the Southern Jin Dynasty, and his younger brother Sima Daozi believed in Buddhism. They built extravagant Buddhist temples, and most of their close friends were male and female monks. Buddhism was passed down from Tianzhu. In terms of surnames, monks’ surnames Zhu and Zhi came from Tianzhu and Dayueshi, which belonged to the surname Hu.His good friend Zhi Dun, who is not from the outside world, is himself a Han Chinese in Chenliu, so he also changed his surname to Zhi. Because of the respect of the monarch, monks enjoy many privileges, and to a certain extent, they are equal to another privileged class outside the noble family. Not only do they not have to perform military service, but they can also avoid taxation.Monasteries can have monk households who plow the fields and grow vegetables for them; there are also Buddhist households who are responsible for various chores.As for the white disciples and adopted daughters, they are all cleverly set up names for the high-level monks to have slaves.What is even more important than the noble clans is that Samana does not have to follow the rules of the lay people. The so-called one does not worship parents and the other does not worship the emperor. Buddhism is becoming more and more prosperous, and the burden on the country is heavier, which is actually a big worry for the Southern Jin Dynasty. But compared to the above, it is far less intense and far-reaching than the emerging Maitreya Sect. Maitreyaism is a heresy of Buddhism, Xie An himself has no ill feeling towards Buddhist teachings, otherwise he would not have close contact with Zhitun, but Maitreyaism is another matter. It turns out that in the explanation of Sakyamuni Buddha in the Buddhist scriptures, Sakyamuni is not the only Buddha. Please ask that there were six Buddhas before Sakyamuni.He also said that Sakyamuni's righteous Dharma lived in the world for five hundred years, the image Dharma for a thousand years, and the final Dharma for ten thousand years.But now that the Dharma is gone, the era of Sakyamuni, such as Jiaoling Yi, has come to the end of the day, and the eighth generation of Maitreya is about to be born on schedule. Zhu Faqing, a monk in the north, held high the banner of the birth of a new Buddha and the removal of the old demons. He founded the Maitreya religion, calling himself the Great Living Maitreya, and his power expanded rapidly.Zhu Bugui is the second most important figure in the Maitreya Sect. Their martial arts have reached the realm of transcendence and holiness. Experts from various Buddhist sects have joined forces to attack the two of them three times. many.Unexpectedly, they would now have a relationship with Sima Yao and Sima Daozi, causing their influence to extend to the south. There are indeed endless troubles, and I don't know how to solve them.Xie An's shock was not without reason. Xie Daoyun's voice continued next to his ear: According to Ningzhi, Sima Daozi's confidants, Yue Ya and Gu Qianqiu, are in charge of collecting the expenses and materials for the construction of Maitreya Temple. This matter is imperative and worrying. Xie An took a deep breath, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "I'll discuss this matter with Zhi Dun. Let me see Pingting first."well!My wretched daughter! An Yuqing calmly took the jade map drawn by Yan Fei and Liu Yumo, and hid in the farthest corner without saying a word, to read and compare the map carefully. Liu Yu, who was sitting on the stone steps, was quite disturbed when An Yuqing left his sight, because her evil skills and secret skills emerged endlessly, so he reminded the two in a low voice: Be careful that she will play tricks. Knowing that he was dissatisfied with himself for preventing them from killing An Yuqing, so that she would not get in the way, Yan Fei secretly sighed, and said: "Time is running out, we must complete the task tonight, and then try to leave." Tuobagui looked at the row of wine jars where An Yuqing was hiding, and muttered: At least she should be knocked out, right? Yan Fei said: If we want to escape, we still need to use her tricks. The two didn't talk about it anymore. Liu Yu looked at Tuobagui, and said solemnly: "What is the situation between Brother Tuoba and Murongchui now?" Tuoba Gui sat down beside Liu Yu, lowered his voice and said: You can regard me as his representative.Today Fu Jian's army came south, mobilizing 270,000 cavalry and more than 600,000 infantry, which is said to be one million.Its combat main force is only the cavalry, and the infantry is used for transportation to support the cavalry in front-line operations.For Fu Jian, the infantry was at best an auxiliary arm, and this matter must be investigated, because it was related to the success or failure of the war. Liu Yu was refreshed when he heard this, and understood that Tuobagui was analyzing the distribution and structure of Fu Jian's army.The Hu people have always been good at horse fighting, far superior to the Han people, so Tuobagui's words are believable.Can't help asking: Brother Tuoba's words, do they come from Murong Chui? Tuoba Gui glanced at Yan Fei who had just squatted in front of the two with a smile, nodded and said: "It can be said that way, and of course I also add my personal opinion.Most of Fu Jian's cavalry were Hu people, and his infantry were Han.Fu Jian's arrangement was to use Fu Rong and Murong Chui's 250,000 cavalry as the vanguard, with Yao Chang Duyi and Liang Zhuzhou Army as the backup.The vanguard army divided its troops into two groups, Fu Rong attacked Shouyang, and Murong Chui attacked Yuncheng.When the two cities fell, Fu Jian's confidant General Liang Cheng of the Di tribe led 50,000 elite cavalry to garrison Luojian to echo Shouyang so that the army could cross the Feishui River. Liu Yu and Yan Fei looked at each other in dismay when they heard this, Luojian is in the east of Shouyang, it is a branch of the lower reaches of the Huai River, and Luojian is the branch of the Huai River. Easily cross the Feishui River, and then the troops will divide into multiple routes to go south, attacking the city and looting the land, until they reach the Yangtze River, there will be no natural barriers, and Jiankang will be in danger. Coupled with the setting of Bianhuangji as a big back-up, it can be seen that Fu Jian's march to the south this time has a thorough plan and is definitely not acting indiscriminately. Tuoba Gui smiled and said, "These 50,000 cavalry are the elite of the Di tribe. In fact, except for Murongchui's 30,000 Xianbei cavalry in the vanguard, the rest of the cavalry are all the elite of the Di tribe. The army suffered a disastrous defeat, and Fu Jian would be unable to support himself. Even if he fled back to the north, he would become helpless. The consequences are not difficult to imagine. Yan Fei finally understood that Tuobagui and Murong Chuiguo were brilliant, and their goal was to let the Southern Jin Dynasty wipe out the best of the Di clan army. Even if Fu Jian returned to the north, the Great Qin Kingdom would still be doomed to collapse.At that time, who can become the new king of the north depends on whose fists are hard enough. Liu Yu managed to suppress the shock in his heart, he was a man who knew soldiers, and he knew better about Xie Xuan's plan to use Feishui to fight against the enemy, but if Fu Jian were to deploy such an elite army in Luokou, compared with Xie Xuan's strength at that time The pitifully weak Beifu soldiers will be attacked by the enemy. They can only retreat to the south bank of the Yangtze River and sit and watch the enemy sweep the towns in the north of the river with the momentum of the wind and clouds. The only thing they can do is to see when the enemy crosses the river to attack Jiankang. He couldn't help saying in a deep voice: What can Murong Chui do in such a situation? Tuoba Gui calmly said: He doesn't need to do anything at all, and his inaction is enough to make Fu Jian lose this battle, the question is whether you southerners know how to seize the opportunity.After Murong Chui took down Yuncheng, he would stay there to guard against the Huan family in Jingzhou. Fu Jian had to divide Murong Chui's elite troops here, fearing that Huan Chong would make a surprise attack from the west.Fu Jian had more scruples about Huan Chong than Xie Xuan. Then there was an incomprehensible smile on the corners of his lips, and he said lightly: Xie Xuanruo is really as clever as the legends, he should know that these words can reverse the whole situation, only a quick battle can win quick. Yan Fei and Liu Yu secretly exclaimed at the same time, of course they didn't know that Xie An had such a foresight long ago, he deserved to strategize and win a decisive victory over a coach thousands of miles away. , the determination to win a battle. It must be known that Fu Jian's total force is 900,000, and his marching is slow, and it is difficult to allocate food, grass and supplies. Therefore, he made a big plan to use the main force of elite cavalry to capture Shouyu and Yuncheng first, and then garrison Luokou to establish a strong front line. Fix it, and wait for the army to gather, then cross the Feishui River and head south. It is strategically impeccable.The only opportunity for the soldiers of the Beifu was to take advantage of the time when the enemy was coming to the south, the troops were not assembled, and the soldiers were exhausted, to attack proactively and kill the opponent by surprise.Now that Tuoba Gui has told Di Qin Fu's strategy, Xie Xuan can take the initiative and make a targeted counterattack. If Fu Jian is defeated in this battle, the ones who lose will be the Di soldiers of his headquarters. Murong Chui, Yao Chang and others will not only be unscathed, but also enjoy the benefits. Liu Yu said decisively: I want to rush back immediately. Yan Fei nodded in agreement, because compared with the precious information revealed by Tuoba Gui, whether or not he could instigate Zhu Xu to return to the Southern Jin Dynasty has become irrelevant, and it is just icing on the cake. When Yan Fei said this, Tuoba Gui shook his head and said: No!Zhu Xuhui is a very important pawn. When Liu Yu was about to question, a strange sound came faintly from the ground, and the two of them were startled at the same time, knowing that the enemy had started a thorough search on the first floor. Although they knew that this was bound to happen, when it happened on the top of their heads, the hearts of the three couldn't help but go to the top of their throats, and they could only wait for the judgment of fate.
