Zhou Ping'an thought Li Chen was crazy.

Before, all of Li Chen's decisions, even his entire governing philosophy and blueprint, were exactly to Zhou Ping'an's liking. He thought Li Chen was the chosen one sent by heaven to assist him.

So he was willing to do everything he could to help Li Chen.

But now, Zhou Ping'an feels Li Chen must be crazy.

He looks like this because the woman in white was seriously injured and wants to take revenge on Buddhism.

Li Chen is the Crown Prince, who acts as regent of the Great Qin Empire.

When the emperor was incapacitated, he became the sole ruler of this ancient empire.

The emperor's wrath resulted in the death of a million corpses.

Li Chen is not yet the true emperor, but he has already been able to bury millions of corpses.

In Zhou Ping'an's view, this was not at all the impulsive behavior one would expect from a wise monarch.

Only then did Zhou Ping'an realize that beneath Li Chen's seemingly absolute calmness, there was a heart of unimaginable madness.

To provoke Li Chen is to invite truly unbearable retribution.

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Ping'an continued, "Your Highness, how easy is it to destroy Buddhism Not to mention the current internal and external troubles in the country, the court has powerful figures, and most of the local areas do not obey the imperial court. The two kings, Ning and Wen alone are a great scourge, let alone the Liao army cavalry right before our eyes."

"This is enough to cause anxiety, let alone if Your Highness insists on exterminating Buddhism. Would the people accept it There are countless believers in Buddhism among the common people. Most devout men and women would rather tighten their belts and go without, just to offer sacrifices to a Buddha statue and pray for peace and well-being. This is not politics, but a belief that runs deeper into people's hearts than politics."

Most commoners don't care who the crown prince is or who the emperor is, but they do care which temple's Buddha can work miracles. If the imperial court were to issue an order to destroy Buddhism, how could the people possibly resist

"Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world, and whoever loses the hearts of the people loses their kingdom. The commoners will all chase after it. The principle behind this is that they are all vying for control in the Central Plains. Your Highness must surely know this."

Zhou Ping'an’s tone grew increasingly urgent, he even stretched his neck and said to Li Chen: “These are all beside the point. The key is that on that day, Tubo was a land governed by Buddhism, and the authority of the lamas surpassed that of the governor. All the people were followers of the Red-robed Lamas. Tubo is vast; once the Central Plains suppresses Buddhism, how could Tubo not rebel”

"With the nation in turmoil, how can Your Highness possibly afford to raise another enemy against us"

When Zhou An finished speaking, what he saw was Li Chen's icy gaze that pierced to the bone.

Seeing these eyes, Zhou Ping'an's heart sank to the bottom.

He knew he hadn't persuaded Li Chen.

As expected, Li Chen spoke softly, “These matters have already been considered by this palace before your arrival. But it is precisely because I have thought them through clearly that this palace has become even more determined to destroy Buddhism.”

Why did the imperial court suppress Buddhism for over three hundred years

"It is precisely because of what you just said that the Buddhist sect has long been a thorn in the side of the imperial court."

"Now, even you oppose this palace's destruction of Buddhism. It shows how much resistance there will be within the court and among the common people. Where does your opposition and that resistance come from They stem from all the reasons you've been giving."

Therefore, haven't you noticed that Buddhism has long since, in silence and without a sound, completed the act of swaying public opinion and exerting pressure on the imperial court

Raising his index finger, Li Chen said coldly: "No matter how great the resistance, this palace must do it, and it will be done swiftly and decisively. This palace wants everyone in the world to know that whoever harms even a single person of this palace, this palace will exterminate their entire clan. This is not wanton killing, but establishing authority for this palace, and for the imperial court. This palace wants the world to know that no one can threaten the imperial court."
