破邪論 2.4

2.4

Emperor Gaozu of the Han was on the throne (twelve years);
Emperor Hui (seven years);
Emperor Wen, the fourth son of Gaozu (not the principal heir);
Emperor Wu, originally the King of Jiaodong, the sixth son of Emperor Jing (not the principal heir).
In the time of Filial Jing, the seven kingdoms including Wu and Chu all rebelled. When Emperor Zhao collapsed, his brother's son, the King of Changyi, was installed; he was on the throne for twenty-seven days, having committed in all one thousand one hundred and twenty-seven transgressions. Huo Guang deposed him and later installed Emperor Xuan. At this time there was no Buddhism; why then was it like this?
