Tang Wuzong Huichang for 3 years

On the 18th day of the first month in the third year of Huichang (843), there were 1232 secular monks and nuns in Zuo Jie and 2,259 secular monks and nuns in Jingyiu Street.

On June 11th (or 12th) of Huichang three years, since the birth of Wuzong, it was customary to call Buddhism and Taoism into the palace for deliberation, but only monks were given purple clothes, and monks were not allowed to wear purple clothes. At that time, Prince Zhan's Wei Zongqing wrote twenty volumes of Nirvana Sutra and twenty volumes of Dayuanzi Yijing, which were ordered to be burned by Wu Zong and ordered to be burned under the book door. The imperial edict said, "(Wei) worships the class, conforms to Confucianism, and is a demon wind." ..................................................................................................................................................................................

In September of Huichang three years, Zhao Yi Town rebelled and the court sent troops to attack. At the same time, Zhao Yi was arrested and detained in Beijing's backyard, and his grandson was frozen. The rumor has been cleared up. Merit messengers from two streets then searched monks in the city, which turned into a cleaning activity for unknown monks, monks living near temples and newly wrapped monks.
