Fu Qin starts with a plan

After Ashoka died, Mahatma inherited his father's behest and sent monks to other countries to preach.

However, the Maurya Dynasty at that time was full of internal chaos.

The children of Ashoka, such as Mahatma, have insufficient control over the dynasty.

The quality of the monks they can send out is also uneven.

At that time, the Maurya Dynasty did not know that there was another big country adjacent to itself beyond the Daxue Mountain in the north.

That's why monks like Shi Lifang, who are not professional enough, went to Daqin to preach.

Shi Lifang's group was originally planning to go to the Western Regions to preach.

By chance, he entered Daqin.

What happened next, Mi Shajia also inquired clearly when he was in the Western Regions.

Knowing how Shi Lifang pretended to be in Daqin, even if Mishaka claims to be superb in Buddhism, he can't wait to hack that guy to death!
The monks of the Maurya Dynasty will receive generous rewards for their success in preaching in other countries.

For example, reward them with an area, build a temple, and let them preside over it.

It is precisely because of these interests that the determination of the monks to spread the word was born.

However, we have to admit that the quality of the monks is indeed uneven, which is worrying.

The Maurya Dynasty was extremely powerful in South Asia.

Therefore, monks have been promoting Buddhism in the surrounding small countries, and it has been very smooth.

During the Ashoka period, the surrounding countries basically converted to Buddhism.

The previous smoothness caused many lower-level monks to drift away.

So much so that they feel that they have the Maurya Dynasty as their backing.

When I was promoting Buddhism, as long as I pretended to be coercive in front of those in power in other countries, the other party would definitely accept and worship.

But what they don't know is.

This method can only be applied to countries that are not as powerful as the Maurya Dynasty.

Not to mention a behemoth like Daqin whose strength is not weaker than his own country, even a few barbarian tribes in the north of Daqin will not give monks any face.

Shi Lifang was pretending to be a force in the Xiongnu, and he also wanted to fool Touman Shanyu into believing in Buddhism.

In the end, their group was directly killed by Touman Shanyu!
To preach, to put it bluntly, is a cultural invasion.

The competition behind this is actually the strength of both sides.

Regardless of the fact that all major religions seem to attract people to be good, the teachings seem to be extremely positive.

However, in the history of religious development, which page is not stained with blood?

Those idiots in Shilifang didn't understand these principles, so they died inexplicably.

But how could Mishajia not understand!

Because of Shilifang's coquettish manipulation before, it is even more difficult to promote Buddhism in Daqin now.

But Mishaja had reasons to do so.

This starts with the internal chaos of the Maurya Dynasty.

After the death of Ashoka, many of his children were obsessed with preaching the Dharma, and they were not very concerned about the affairs of the country.

Therefore, the Maurya Dynasty has almost come to the point of falling apart.

The Baicheng Dynasty, which has been in a semi-independent state in the south, directly declared independence under the leadership of Sumuga.

Other territories that Ashoka forcibly merged together also broke out in rebellion.

It can be said that in the past twenty years so far, the Maurya Dynasty has been in turmoil, showing a trend of wind and rain.

This situation has been going on for a long time, and the monks are starting to worry.

Religion, to put it bluntly, is a parasite attached to the country and sucking blood.

As a result, the parasitized country begins to weaken, which has a great impact on religion.

Buddhism was founded more than [-] years ago, and during the decades of Ashoka's reign, its power expanded rapidly.

After tasting the sweetness of parasitism, no one wants to let them go back to the bitter days before.

The monks did not consider how to use their power to help the Mauryan Dynasty get back on track.

Instead, they decided to replace the vampire with a new one.

I got huge benefits from the Maurya Dynasty before.

When they were looking for their next target, they naturally didn't want to be worse than the previous one.

However, there is one thing to say, the Mauryan Dynasty during the reign of King Ashoka was extremely powerful for a while, and it was still quite capable of fighting.

Looking around, the surrounding countries, even the countries in the Western Regions, count as one, and they are all younger brothers.

Therefore, Mi Shajia was ecstatic after learning of the existence of Daqin.

During that time in the Western Regions, even though he hadn't gone to Daqin, he had already felt the power of Daqin.

In order to preach in Daqin, he did not hesitate to spend half a year preparing.

As a result, what happened to Shi Lifang gave him a blow in the head.

Even so, Misarjah bravely came.

After careful planning for a long time, he finally decided to meet Ying Zheng.

Inferences are made based on the analysis of information collected by Mishajah.

He believed that after Yingzheng saw him, he would definitely order him and others to be arrested as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, Ying Zheng didn't take them seriously at all.

Don't even want to see them.

At this time, Mishajia had no choice but to come to Nanyue to find Prince Zhao Kun.

Unexpectedly, after seeing Zhao Kun, Zhao Kun didn't tell them much, but just put them in a side room of the inn.

After a night of uneasiness, he was received by Zhao Kun again.

At this time, Mi Shajia recited a sentence of Buddha's blessing in his heart, and at the same time made a Buddhist salute to Zhao Kun.

"My Buddha is merciful! Mi Shajia is an outsider, and he only kneels to the Buddha in his life. Please forgive me, the prince!"

"It's okay!"

Zhao Kun waved his hand indifferently: "Are you a disciple of Mahatma? I heard that he served the Buddha in the Lion Kingdom and has been ignoring common affairs for a long time. Why did you come to Daqin?"

"!!!"

Hearing Zhao Kun's words, Mi Shajia's expression was shocked.

It has long been heard that Prince Daqin almost knew it from birth, but he did not expect that he had even heard of the Lion Kingdom.

"Back to the prince. More than [-] years ago, my master was in the midst of sitting and forgetting, and found that there was a Buddha light all over the sky in the northwest, and it seemed that a Buddha was born."

"Ok?"

As soon as Mi Shajia's words came out, the faces of everyone present changed slightly.

Even the monks who accompanied him looked at Mishaja in disbelief.

Buddha has the supreme status in Buddhism.

In today's Mauryan Dynasty, there are so many monks that there is even no household without monks.

But with such a huge number, none of the Buddhist monks could obtain the title of 'Buddha' while alive.

Even though Mi Shakya's master, as the recognized reincarnation of Brahma, converted to Buddhism, he only obtained the status of an Arhat.

But Mi Shajia said now that the 'Buddha' is in Daqin.

People in Qin did not understand the meaning of this, but these monks did.

The reincarnated Buddha, once recognized by Buddhism.

Then his appeal in Buddhism is unparalleled.

Even, under certain circumstances, today's monks must listen to his call.

After saying these words, Mishaja closed his eyes in some pain.

In fact, if it was not necessary, he would never make such a heavy promise.

Mishakah still remembers that when he left the lion country and went north to preach, he communicated with his teacher Mahatma all night.

Mahatma told him that if one day he went to Daqin, he found that the country in the north was stronger than they imagined.

Then, no matter what method is used, Buddhism must be extended to Daqin.

As a Buddhist wise man who grew up in the royal family of the Mauryan Dynasty, Mahatma's vision is also extremely high.

He could naturally see that the Maurya Dynasty, which was declining day by day, was dying of constant internal friction.

If this continues, within a dozen years, the Maurya Dynasty may cease to exist.

Today, the Sunga family, which is in charge of the Maurya Dynasty, has shown their disobedience.

They went to Qin State in order to increase their domestic influence in order to realize their ambitions.

But in the face of this situation, Ashoka's children had nothing to do.

Their influence is only in Buddhism.

Although the worldly status is respected, it does not actually have much power.

In the past 20 years after Ashoka's death, the dynasty has begun to fall apart.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it exists in name only.

Mahinda didn't care about the collapse of his father's hard-earned empire.

His only concern is, after the demise of the Mauryan Dynasty, what should Buddhism do.

Buddhism, which has benefited greatly from Ashoka, has already tasted the marrow and tasted it.

All Buddhist leaders agreed that Buddhism should take root in another powerful country.

When Mahatma knew that there was a country in the north that was more powerful than the Mauryan Dynasty, he was very excited.

At that time, he told the four monks including Mi Shajia that Daqin was the seed of the Buddha Kingdom bestowed by the Buddha.

Before Mishajia left, Mahatma told him clearly that he should not hesitate to treat the royal family of Daqin with the most respected status.

If the Dharma protector can't do it, then it's an arhat. If an arahant can't do it, then he can take the Buddhahood.

There is no doubt about Mahatma's influence on Buddhism.

He firmly believes that even if the Daqin royal family becomes the nominal leader of Buddhism.

It is still Buddhism as a whole that benefits in the end.

This is the scariest thing about religion.

When a group of lunatics are willing to do anything to achieve their goals regardless of the consequences, few people can stop this determination.

When he first arrived in the Western Regions, Mi Shajia learned about the strength of the Great Qin from the merchants in the Western Regions.

But he didn't care.

So at that time, Mi Sharjah's idea was to represent Buddhism and give the Daqin royal family the identity of Ashoka's reincarnation.

In Mishakah's view, the status of the reincarnation of King Bai Ashoka, allowing the Daqin royal family to inherit the status of Buddhist Dharma protectors, is already very great.

Don't be surprised that Mishaja has such an idea.

The Indians of later generations also have the tradition of honey and self-confidence.

It can be said that it has a long history.

Although strictly speaking, the Maurya Dynasty is not considered the ancestor of the Indians.

But the people born in the land of South Asia seem to carry this self-confidence factor in their genes.

During the most powerful period of the Maurya Dynasty, it occupied most of the South Asian peninsula.

And at that time, all the countries in the Western Regions bowed their heads and bowed their heads to them, not daring to be disrespectful in the slightest.

It is the strongest strange idea in the world to be king and hegemony in a corner of the world, so it is natural for South Asians to give birth to their own country.

Ashoka made great contributions to promoting Buddhism. Although he did not receive the highest courtesy from Buddhism, Buddhists in this era still respect him very much.

Buddhism claims that after Ashoka died, Black Ashoka fell into the six realms and paid for his sins.

King Bai Ashoka transformed into thousands of auras, preaching on behalf of the Buddha.

Every bit of aura has inherited Bai Ashoka's status as a Dharma protector.

It is very appropriate for the Great Qin imperial family to be the reincarnation of King Ashoka's most powerful aura.

But the longer he stayed in the Western Regions, the deeper his understanding of Daqin.

This kind of self-confidence of Mi Shajia was gradually crushed day by day.

In the process of Ashoka's unification of the Mauryan Dynasty, 10 people were killed in the final battle.

From the perspective of Buddhist teachings, this is the living devil.

However, when Mi Sharjah learned that Yingzheng unified the six countries, millions of people were killed.

In a battle of destroying the country, Bai Qi, the famous general of Daqin, killed 40 people in one pit.

Rao is Mi Shajia who has a good cultivation, when he knew this information, he was also frightened and froze.

He thought it was a lie.

How is it possible to kill 40 people at one time?

However, when he arrived in Loulan, this thought completely disappeared.

The Xiongnu, a country composed of many tribes, is also recorded in the ancient books of the Mauryan Dynasty.

Although it is not as powerful as the heyday of the Peacock Dynasty, it is still considered a powerful country in the records of the classics.

However, this country was abruptly destroyed by the Great Qin Crown Prince.

The number of kills is also 10,000+.

If this example is not conclusive enough.

Later, Mi Sharjah saw the Daqin army slaughtering the aliens who intercepted the Daqin caravan.

The Jingguan made of tens of thousands of human heads is still there today, so Mi Shajia had no choice but to believe it.

It was only at this time that Mi Sharjah believed it. He didn't know about other aspects, but in terms of force, the Great Qin Dynasty was definitely much stronger than the Maurya Dynasty.

Otherwise, it is impossible for the Xunjia family to send envoys to Daqin.

And judging from Xunjia's attitude towards Daqin, he is really afraid of Daqin.

Who Sunga is, Mishaka naturally knows.

So he changed his original intention.

Mi Sharjah had come into contact with many Daqin merchants in the Western Regions, and each of them was counted as one, and they were all extremely proud.

If the common people are like this, let alone the royal family who is in charge of that huge empire?
If he dared to say that they were one of the reincarnations of King Ashoka, Mi Sharjah believed that after he uttered these words, his head would fall to the ground in the next second.

It's just a political deal anyway.

Mi Sharjah wisely changed his plan. He decided to choose a person from the Great Qin imperial family and make him the reincarnation of Arhat.

And this person, he already had an idea in his mind.

Just when Mi Shajia was fooling Zhao Kun, in a dense forest in South Vietnam.

Zhao Tuo stared at Mo Hu in front of him gloomyly, and said coldly, "You mean, since the plan was implemented, you haven't even seen Zhang Han's face? What's going on!"

"My lord, what I discussed with Zhang Han that day was to send troops together to extinguish the South Vietnam rebellion. As a result, in the past few months, only his lieutenant general has contacted us, and Zhang Han never showed up!"

Mo Hu said helplessly: "Now the rebellion in South Vietnam has been almost wiped out. If it continues, it will be extremely bad for us!"

"Besides, I heard from spies in the city that there are many strange faces in Nanyue County. I'm afraid Zhao Kun has already come to Nanyue!"

"Yeah." Zhao Tuo pondered for a moment, frowned and said, "What can I do at Yin Yang Palace?"

"They mean to attack and occupy South Vietnam..." Mo Hu said hesitantly.

"Strong attack? They really use us as gunmen!"

Zhao Tuo sneered and said, "If a strong attack can occupy South Vietnam, then what did we do in the first place?"

"But the problem now is that we have no choice!" Mo Hu sighed, "If we can find Zhao Kun, maybe we still have a chance."

"Find Zhao Kun?"

Hearing this, a light flashed in Zhao Tuo's eyes, and he immediately returned to normal: "If Zhao Kun really came to South Vietnam, I think we can cooperate with Yin Yang Palace and come according to their plan!"

"According to their plan? Could it be that the lord meant to storm Nanyue City?!" Mo Hu was surprised.

"idiot!"

Zhao Tuo glared at Mo Hu, and said in a low voice, "Since the rebellion in Nanyue has been cleared up, shouldn't you take your soldiers and prepare a triumphant banquet in Nanyue City?"

"This……"

Mo Hu hesitated for a moment, then he was overjoyed: "That's right! Why didn't I expect that! As long as my people can enter the city, even if Zhang Han's weapons are sharp, we can take Nanyue City."

"It won't be difficult to find Zhao Kun again at that time!"

"Now that you know what to do, let's arrange it!"

Zhao Tuo waved his hand.

Mo Hu was about to leave when he suddenly heard Zhao Tuo's voice: "Don't forget to inform the Yin Yang Palace and let their assassins also enter the city to stand by!"

"Yes!"

Mo Hu paused, then walked away quickly.
