    The incident involving assassination finally came to an end.

    Yang Guang left Sizhou on a dragon boat the day after the turmoil in the Sizhou Engineering Camp, leaving behind a mess of chicken feathers.

    This turmoil affected hundreds of thousands of people, and countless people were killed as a result.  Although Huang Mingyuan tried his best to restrain the killings of the troops, since it was a counter-insurgency, it was a collision of blood and fire, so how could there be less casualties.

    Along the entire Sizhou Canal, rivers of blood flowed from those who were killed, corpses were scattered everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of blood, which was horrifying and nauseating.

    For Yang Guang, Sizhou left him only some unbearable memories.

    Yang Guang was not willing to stay here any longer and experience these terrible things, so he decided to continue south, leaving only Prime Minister Pei Ju to deal with the aftermath of Sizhou.

    Of course, the governor of Sizhou and the manager of the engineering camp were all executed, and countless officials were punished.

    The rebellion in Sizhou Engineering Camp affected the lives of tens of thousands of people, more than tens of thousands of people died, and countless people were deposed as slaves.  But for big figures like Yang Guang and Huang Mingyuan, it is actually just a twists and turns in the journey.

    For Yang Guang, what he was concerned about was the offended majesty of the emperor, the turmoil of the Jiangnan family, the country of the Sui Dynasty, and the unsatisfactory results of his ministers.  But it's not the hundreds of thousands of lives outside Sizhou City.

    As for Huang Mingyuan, a general who fought from south to north, he had seen so much that his heart was a little numb, and he even took it for granted.

    In fact, the impact of this huge and absurd rebellion on Huang Mingyuan was not as great as the disappearance of Du Fuwei's family.

    Afterwards, Huang Mingyuan discovered that Du Fuwei¡¯s father, Du Laosi, and his brother, Du Geng, were coerced by rebellion and participated in the rebellion, and finally died in the chaos.  Du Fuwei, his mother and Fu Gong'er all disappeared.  I don¡¯t know where he was washed away in the chaos, or he died anonymously in a mass grave.

    Regarding this matter, Huang Mingyuan felt helpless. He finally accepted an adopted son, but before he could play its role, he unfortunately disappeared.

    Fortunately, their bodies were not found, leaving them with a thought.  Huang Mingyuan believed that a lucky man like Du Fuwei would not die so easily. However, he lost his blessing and became a helpless man again. He was afraid that Du Fuwei would die again.  The bandits started to do it.

    Because of the turmoil in Sizhou, Yang Guang was afraid that there would still be assassins along the way, so he did not stop at various prefectures and counties, but ordered the fleet to go straight to Yangzhou.

    Afterwards, Huang Mingyuan fully understood the unrest in Sizhou.  It turns out that the other party was able to organize more than 100,000 servants in such a unified way to cause chaos together, because it relied on an organization called the Tianshi Sect.  The leader of this organization, the Celestial Master, claims to have vast supernatural powers, reaching up to the sky and down to the underworld, and is unpredictable.

    Heavenly Master, a teacher who is in line with the natural way.  Later, Tianshi became a title for Taoist leaders, and Tianshi Tao spread throughout the north and south.

    But this is a legal and formal religion.

    And this so-called Celestial Master is just a borrowed title. As for the Celestial Master, in Huang Mingyuan's opinion, he is just a swindler.

    There are things like blood-letters on yellow paper, deep-fried ghosts, making money in oil pans It seems that people are stunned for a while, but these little magic tricks used to deceive ordinary people are purely flimsy.  People in later generations with a little bit of scientific knowledge will be able to understand the tricks they are playing.

    Of course, they did rely on these trivial tricks to convince foolish men and women.

    What worries Huang Mingyuan even more is that these people are trying to use religion to subvert traditional political power, which Huang Mingyuan cannot tolerate.

    A country can have multiple forms of state, but it must not be based on religion.

    This is a big cancer for any dynasty. Its religious organization is strict, its believers are extremely wide, and its scope is huge, making it extremely difficult to eradicate.  Moreover, this is an ancient ideological education that can subvert people's hearts.  The White Lotus Sect in history relied on his set of ideas to survive and rebel for a thousand years. It was not completely annihilated when the Qing Dynasty fell.

    After Huang Mingyuan found out, he immediately met with Yang Guang and asked Yang Guang to issue an order to completely kill the cult in the Jiangnan area that used religion to gather people's hearts.

    Yang Guang believes in Buddhism and Taoism, and is considered a relatively senior religious believer. Therefore, he is very relaxed about religious beliefs and does not think there is any harm.

    So Yang Guang was quite dissatisfied with Huang Mingyuan's statement.

    Huang Mingyuan said with a serious expression: "Sage, if it is a good religion, it can naturally educate people's hearts and persuade them to do good. But now theseMany of the religions in Jiangnan are no longer simple religions, but cults organized by evil people.  These ambitious people use prophecies, superstitions, and books similar to religious scriptures to confuse people's hearts, gain people's trust, earn people's wealth, and seek to subvert the country.  And these cults themselves are very instructive, making it difficult for people to distinguish them. Foolish men and women can easily be bewitched by them.  Once these cults intend to cause chaos and believers gather from all directions, they can create a huge momentum and endanger the world.  Zhang Jiao founded the Taiping Dao and proposed the ideal of "bringing peace", educating the people with good Taoism, and treating diseases and saving people everywhere. However, once trouble broke out, the four hundred years of Han Dynasty were overturned; while Sun En and Lu Xun of the Eastern Jin Dynasty used the Five Pecks of Rice Dao  The rebellion caused the entire Jiangnan to rot, and the country fell into the hands of powerful ministers These past events are all lessons from the past, and the saints have to guard against it.  "

    Huang Mingyuan was so solemn that Yang Guang had to pay attention to it.

    Although Yang Guang does not think that these conspiracies and tricks can defeat him, if there is less trouble in the world, he is not willing to ask for trouble.  Moreover, Huang Mingyuan repeatedly put forward the statement around him that "imperial power must not be contaminated by divine power" and that any approach to increase divine power must be vigilant, which made Yang Guang agree very much, which also made Yang Guang at this time not as religious as he was in history.  .

    Yang Guangnai decreed that the Tianshi Sect, which spread in the Jianghuai area, was created by traitors and was a complete cult.  In the future, if any preachers are found in various places again, they will be put to death directly.  At the same time, Yang Guang also ordered a strict investigation of religions and obscene temples in various states and counties. Religious and sacrificial activities that are not officially recognized will be classified as evil cults and obscene temples and shall not be carried out.

    The Sui Dynasty launched a Sui Dynasty version of "religious crackdown" from top to bottom, and finally suppressed the arrogance of some evil spirits.

    Religion is a kind of thought and a position of public opinion.

    Another aspect of suppressing religion is to enhance the status of Confucianism.  Yang Guang also issued an edict to promote Confucianism and Taoism, promote education, and continue unique learning, which attracted praise from a group of Confucian scholars.

    After dealing with the affairs of cults and obscene temples, the emperor's boat also transferred from Huai River to Hangou.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
