Chapter 710 Situ Xin

Hong Danyang roughly explained the origin of the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, allowing Yang Xing to understand the historical entanglements. In fact, in his opinion, this is a long-term game in which religion attempts to influence politics, gain greater power and recognize secular society. China is not traditionally a religious country, and it is more prosperous than worshiping ancestors than it is a god who is not aware of so-called gods. The practice of suppressing ideas by the Inquisition like the Middle Ages in Europe did not work in China, so the Buddhist and Taoist schools could only make decisions on the rulers.

However, the Chinese ruling class began to abolish all schools of thought and respect Confucianism since the Western Han Dynasty. Confucianism became an orthodox theory. Rulers who practice Buddhism and Taoism were regarded as heresy and could only be regarded as personal hobbies. What's more, some rulers have a purely utilized attitude towards religion, and Buddhism and Taoism are just tools to paralyze the general public. In imperial art, even Confucian Legalists are used when they are useful, and religions such as Buddhism and Taoism believe in them when they are not. After entering modern society, Taoism, which has a strong feudal thought and does not want to make progress and change, is at a disadvantage compared to Buddhism.

The conflict between him and Yu Zhengqing was also based on this reason. The great unrest after the founding of the People's Republic of China suffered a great impact on the religious community in the country. Destroying the four olds destroyed many palaces and classics of the Buddhist and Taoist sects. Of course, the rebels were not all passionate young people with simple thoughts. Yu Zhengqing also studied it in order to defeat the Buddhist and Taoist ideology. The history of Buddhism and Taoism in China has a long history. Even if most people are charlatans, there will always be one or two truly capable figures like Hong Danyang, so Yu Zhengqing wanted to gather them together for his use. This was the gathering of religious figures. He left a photo of him and Hong Danyang.

Unfortunately, his ambitions were insignificant compared to the general trend. His rapid failure in the political struggle left him with no way out. Fortunately, his imperial learning was good, and he was proficient in Buddhism and morality. He chose the path of becoming a monk and slowly striving for it. Now it seems that he had successfully taken this path. Hong Danyang looked down on his rapid ideological change, thinking that he was a liar who had sneaked into the religious world. Later, due to the dispute over Buddhism and Taoism, he became even more powerful.

Yang Xing disagreed with this. The Chinese intellectuals' thoughts have always been to help the world when they advance. When they retreat, they are alone. Once the gap between reality and ideals is too large, the result of their dreams is to retreat to the mountains or devote themselves to Buddhism and Taoism. There are many such examples in history. The seven sages of the bamboo forest in the Jin Dynasty laughed at the mountains and forests in order to avoid political darkness. The famous master Hongyi during the Republic of China was even a great writer who was a monk, a painter, a writer and a dramatist. Finally, he suddenly became a monk and made people around him. Yu Zhengqing's choice was indeed the act of a political speculator, which shows that his previous theories were all deceptive.

For an ambitious man who likes to think about the minds of emperors, he attaches great importance to Hong Danyang's foresight and divination skills. However, although Hong Danyang was persecuted at that time, he had already seen through his thoughts and refused to join him. He only gave him a few proverbs. He warned him to stop as soon as possible, otherwise the monkeys would soon scatter. In the end, Hong Danyang's words came true. Yu Zhengqing admired him not only did not cultivate himself, but instead studied the Buddhist scriptures and became more and more determined to compete with Hong Danyang, and then he had a lot of thoughts about the dispute over Buddhism. He lost half of the first few fights, so he had to put his hope on his younger generation, saying that the two of them each cultivated a disciple to see what their future was.

Yu Zhengqing was good at political strategies, so he naturally started directly from the officialdom. He did not study Buddhist scriptures entirely for disguise, but was both scheming. He found many methods of looking at people and doing things from Buddhism. Combined with his own experience, he really found some potential rookies in the domestic politics. Among them, he was the most optimistic about Situ Xin.

Situ Xin has a close relationship with a "big Buddha" in China. Although he has no blood relationship, he is almost equivalent to the adopted son of the "big Buddha". The "big Buddha" has a very high status now. Situ Xin has made great contributions to handling many private affairs behind his back and has won his trust. Situ Xin is considered a young hero of the "big Buddha". Now the "big Buddha" is in power. Situ Xin has a very important position in this huge network of relationships, and his power is much greater than his actual position.

In order to help Cheng Canghai crack down on domestic smuggling groups, Yang Xing did not hesitate to commit crimes in Nanjing. The other party's counterattack was to rely on the "Big Buddha" forces to cause considerable trouble for Yang Xing. Fortunately, Cheng Canghai and the Chief No. 1 both stood on Yang Xing's side with a clear position, which made the "Big Buddha" restrain a lot.

But afterwards, Zhongxing will always be suppressed by Ruoling and secretly, and behind this, there are some shadows of Situ Xin and the "big Buddha". Among the people who gave their advice, Yu Zhengqing is the most enthusiastic. After all, Yang Xing is a disciple of Hong Danyang, and almost all the upper class in the country knows that the fateful battle between Yang Xing and Situ Xin actually started from that time.

When Yang Xing heard this, he was very irritated to complain. Why did he, a world-class mogul, have been related to the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism that has been fighting for thousands of years? This is really a disaster. He advocated Taoism mainly because he mainly considered that many traditional cultural heritages have been preserved in Taoism history. If he wanted to carry forward Chinese studies, he did not want to be a Taoist priest.

But now people clearly regard you as an opponent, and they can't go over and shake hands to apologize, saying that this is a misunderstanding and has nothing to do with him. I'm afraid that the other party will be more aggressive, not only want his money but also his life. Compared with Hong Danyang's news, his intelligence website also learned more about the situation. Situ Xin is worthy of being a rare elite in the domestic political circle. From his decisive attitude towards Zhu Zizong, he immediately cut off all contacts and turned offense to defense. It can be seen that he is much more difficult to deal with than Yang Xing's previous opponents.

Yang Xing was very shocked by the conclusions drawn by Situ Xin's open and secret investigation. He found that he was almost a saint with flawless private life, and it was difficult to defeat him from small matters. If nothing unexpected happened, he would definitely be a big shot in the center in the future. The only problem he had was that when he launched an offensive against Zhongxing Group last time, his strength was obviously not enough with domestic funds alone, so Situ Xin found foreign fund providers such as the United States and Japan. Given his understanding of Yang Xing, most of the enemies he found were Yang Xing's enemies. In addition to people like Yasuda Ichinosuke and Frank Mellon, there was also a guy named Miyagi Yoshihiro on the list. He was a young hero of Mitsui, the largest chaebol in Japan that Yang Xing repeatedly offended several times. These people combined gave Yang Xing a headache.

However, Yang Xing was obviously not the Wuxia Ameng at the time. Not everyone could easily grasp it. Situ Xin had some advantages over Yang Xing in the past. Now that he was exposed, Yang Xing naturally had hundreds of ways to track him. It would be much easier to find a breakthrough from the people around him. Now Hong Danyang just dug out the background of his dog-headed military advisor Yu Zhengqing? Thinking of this, he patted Hong Danyang on the shoulder and said, "No matter what kind of dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, I only know that it is impossible for someone to get involved in me and want to get out of it. Now the only thing I think about is how to knock the other party down. If you are relaxed, I naturally have a way."

In January 2004, there was only one adjective for many countries - chaos! Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi visited the Yasukuni Shrine for the fourth time regardless of the feelings of neighboring countries and international public opinion, making the frozen Japan-South Korea-Japan-China relations even worse. French people spent the new year in chaos. The world-famous Eiffel Tower was even forced to close for nearly half an hour due to more than 100 demonstrations. On that day, hundreds of cars were deliberately ignited and burned. More than tens of shops on the famous Champs-Elysées in Paris were destroyed, dozens of police officers who maintained order were injured, and hundreds of other rioters were arrested.

As for the Middle East, an Egyptian Airlines passenger plane carrying 135 passengers and 13 crew members crashed in the Red Sea that day, and 148 people on board were unfortunately killed. Iraq, which had long been declared the end of the war, still had violent conflicts. Within a month, the headquarters of the coalition forces, the police station, the market where foreigners live, and the coalition patrol convoy were frequently attacked. It was a crisis everywhere, and no one believed that the US military could escape from Iraq as soon as possible. The business of the two overseas intelligence and arms companies supported by Yang Xing is now very good, and they have just obtained a large number of military equipment for the US military stationed in Iraq, especially the m

The large order of the AAP anti-mine counter-ambuster vehicle made the group's manufacturing department feel excited, and worked overtime to catch up with the progress of delivery, so that the American soldiers could die.

Although the h7n7 avian influenza virus that broke out in the Netherlands last year is different from the h5n1 avian influenza in Hong Kong, given that the source of the avian influenza and the ** virus in Hong Kong comes from organisms in nature, the EU announced a complete ban on the export of live poultry and eggs in the Netherlands. Avian influenza brought a heavy blow to the Netherlands, one of the world's largest poultry exporters. In just a few weeks, 14 million poultry in about 900 farms were quarantined and more than 18 million sick chickens were slaughtered. What's more serious is that during the outbreak, a total of 80 people were infected with the avian influenza virus and also had fatal cases. The epidemic later expanded to Europe, becoming the most widely circulated avian influenza epidemic.

The East Asia only caused panic last year because of a disaster, and the avian influenza that broke out again at the end of the year made Southeast Asian countries feel like they were facing a great enemy. In 1997, avian influenza broke out in Hong Kong, not only slaughtering more than one million live chickens, but also the first case of human infection and death from avian influenza, which made everyone's fear of avian influenza to a new level.

Asian countries, which suffered the greatest losses, did not dare to neglect the global spread of avian influenza and immediately implemented a comprehensive epidemic area blockade. Even the most lively festival in East Asia, the festive atmosphere was covered with an unknown shadow. Ordinary people could only leave it to fate. However, after last year, many wealthy people in China chose to travel abroad and avoid the crisis during the holidays abroad. This year, the Spring Festival, foreign travel became very prosperous.
