Chinese dining table

Naturally, Yunchu would not say that the world would be different after the gears of fate were turned by him.

Powerful people are great people everywhere, especially Di Renjie, who is gentle and gentle, even if he is reduced to a beggar, he must be the overlord among beggars. Not to mention food and clothing, he can also be as beautiful as a cloud.

After the spring tour at Longshouyuan was over, Yunchu found out that the reason why Pei Wanying appeared in Longshouyuan was specially arranged by Wu Mei.

It was specially created for Li Hong and Pei Wanying to meet each other, and then developed into a good couple who played harmoniously.

Of course she knew that Li Hong didn't like Pei Wanying, but, royal couples never became husband and wife on the premise of loving each other. More often, they were partners rather than husband and wife.

Li Hong creatively split himself into two people. Wu Mei, who doesn't know what a split personality is, thinks it's good, and even thinks her son is very smart.

Yunchu didn't pay too much attention to the matter between Li Hong and Naha. After all, Li Hong had his affairs to do, and Naha also had her affairs to do after wearing the crown.

May [-]th will be the day when Naha is enthroned. Before that, Xuanzang and the eminent monks of the Tang Dynasty need to equip her with a whole set of management team for Buddhism.

From now on, the monks of Datang will accept the management of Naha, but in the territory of Datang, she can only manage monks and bhikkhunis, leaving the mainland of Datang, Naha will be the king of all monks and bhikkhunis , She even has the right to establish Buddhist bases in various Jimi prefectures in Datang.

Li Zhi's purpose is very simple, that is to let Buddhism, as a pioneer in Jimi Prefecture, carry out basic enlightenment, and then the imperial court will quickly follow up, establish counties in these Jimi Prefectures, and carry out final assimilation.

Of course, Li Zhi's mind is small, and it is impossible for the Buddhist family to dominate nature, so the Taoist school also has such power.

This is why the Taoist sect didn't respond to Naha's enthronement in Chang'an.

Sun Shenxian has long been detached from things, and he doesn't care about these common things in the Taoist sect. Therefore, people like Li Chunfeng are now busy jumping up and down, preparing to choose a young man with a naha appearance in the Taoist sect to come out and win the royal family. Finally, she has the same power and status as Naha.

Country expansion, religion first, this is Li Zhi's big game around Datang.

Yunchu felt that such a plan was actually quite good.

People's cognition always starts with religion, and if they agree with the religion of Datang, they basically agree with the country of Datang.

There are many uncertain factors in religion. Therefore, Li Zhi has very strict control over Buddhism and Taoism in China, and even reached the point of restraining Buddhism and Taoism. In the region, however, a supportive attitude is adopted for both Buddhism and Taoism.

In other words, they can expand wantonly outside the territory, and they can even take domestic monks to form a pioneering group outside the territory without any problem. More than 1000 people.

Especially for young monks, the number of small Taoist priests is very strict. Once young monks are found, the number of young Taoist priests is wrong, and the temples and Taoist temples they are in will usher in disaster.

Li Zhi has been planning this matter for ten years, especially after the army wiped out the Three Eastern Kingdoms, he started to arrange it. Now, real results are about to come out.

In this process, the real reason why Naha became the undisputed candidate for the queen of the Buddhist kingdom is that Naha is a bearded woman, but what she did was to get rid of beards in Buddhism and localize Buddhism.

Similarly, Taoism has a legend that Lao Tzu went out of Hangu to transform Hu, so, because Taoism is the native religion of the Tang people, Li Zhi believed that they could accept the teachings of the Hu people and incorporate the teachings of the Hu people into the Taoist classics.

In this way, Taoism expands outward, while Buddhism restrains, and eventually a balance will be formed at a certain point.

For Li Zhi's style, Yun Chu admired Li Zhi very much. When he was in the Western Regions, he finally figured out Li Zhi's deeds, and he flattered the emperor in his letter to Liu Rengui. It was not insincere. Among them, some I really admire it.

An emperor should have the emperor's big picture, big means, and long-term vision. As for whether these behaviors are good for Datang, it will take a long time to verify.

At least, at this moment, Li Zhihai's open-mindedness and majestic imperial aura have really been shown.

Especially the localization of Buddhism, the Hurenization of Taoism, and the refinement of Confucianism. In Yunchu's view, this concept is definitely far-sighted.

It is conceivable that in the long years to come, monks and Taoist priests will walk outside the territory of the Tang Dynasty. They can eat fruit with the Nanman who just came down from the tree in the jungle while shaping the simplest world view for them.

You can also gnaw on the fire with the savages in the desert and eat animal meat, tell them about the world, the origin of gods and men, and instill the most basic social views in their empty brains.

This is a terrazzo effort that takes time, verification, and action.

Naha's Buddhist Kingdom will soon have Confucian officials to participate in the management. After the Eastern Taoist sects have developed their own Taoist fairyland, once the number of believers becomes large and they gather into a city, Confucian officials will also go to govern.

This is the most ideal state.

Yunchu thought it was worth a try. Anyway, the current Tang Dynasty has become so powerful that it has no friends. Even if the reform messes up, it can afford losses.

Of course, the wealth of the people of the Tang Dynasty is the real first thing. A poor and impoverished Tang Dynasty cannot maintain export status for a long time, and it does not meet the people's yearning for a better life in the Tang Dynasty.

In March of the fifth year of Xianqing, the emperor promulgated a new year name, the name - Long Shuo!
The word Longshuo comes from the word Longhuang Shuomo in "Xuandishu", which means the deserted land in the north.

Taking advantage of the fact that it was not long before the second dragon raised its head in February, Yunchu was willing to regard the word Long Shuo as the dragon raised his head.

It was the first time that the giant dragon of Datang raised his head from the Central Plains and began to look at the beginning of this new world again.

Li Zhi's dragon chant was so unpleasant that Yun Chu, who was in court, had the urge to cover his ears.

In this beautiful spring, the Turkic people, who had bowed their heads and kept their heads low, rebelled again.

The Western Turkic Ashina Buzhen Khan who was originally loyal to the Tang Dynasty, after 11 years as a khan, his life finally came to an end. While eating mutton, a sharp sheep bone punctured his stomach bag and vomited blood After Sansheng's death,
Xue Rengui and Pei Xingjian were actively preparing to divide the surviving Western Turkic tribes and designate grazing areas for the Western Turkic people. As a result, when each tribe went to their respective pastures, a sudden big change happened.

Those Turkic people who were demarcated as pastoral areas did not advance in the area demarcated by Xue Rengui and Pei Xingjian, but scattered separately...

During the process of dispersal, about [-] Turkic tribes disappeared. When Xue Rengui and Pei Xingjian found out the whereabouts of these disappeared tribes, they realized that those lost tribes were captured by the Turkic chief Ashinadu. Zhi and Li Zhegen were gathered together. In order to guard against revenge from the Tang Dynasty, they attached themselves to Tubo.

Li Zhi announced the beginning of the first year of Longshuo here, but Ashina Duzhi and Li Zhexuan rebelled there, and they were still attached to Tubo.

This made Li Zhi feel ashamed, so when Yunchu and the others started the morning court, they heard Li Zhi's dragon chant with a broken sound.

Today's Datang, without any enemies for several years, certainly would not say anything softly to the rebels.

After Li Zhicai finished his roar, a large group of generals came out one after another, holding the wat board and challenged Li Zhi to fight.

"Your Majesty, the veteran can send troops to exterminate this beast if he wishes."

"Your Majesty, please give the old minister 2 horses. Within a year, the rebels will be suppressed and the heads of the rebels will be returned to Beijing."

"Your Majesty, the veteran does not need 2 troops. Please give the veteran [-] troops. After joining the Anxi Army, it will surely relieve His Majesty's worries."

"Your Majesty, I don't need to lead troops from Chang'an. I just need to hand over the Anxi Army to the command of the old minister. The veteran will take the soldiers day and night. For a period of eight months, the heads of those rebellious officials and thieves can be beheaded."

"Your Majesty, why worry? An old minister with an old servant, a boy, and a horse can persuade Ashina Duzhi and Li Zhexiong to surrender. In peacetime, there is no need to use swords and guns..."

Wen Rou rubbed the dozing Yun Chu with his shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Why don't you go ask for a fight?"

Yun Chu rolled his eyes and said: "The price has already reached the point where a donkey, an old servant, and a boy can quell the Turkic rebellion, what do you think I should say now?
Said that I don't need to go out of the capital, and find a higher place in Chang'an, and I can kill Ashina Duzhi and Li Zhexi with one fart? "

Gentle nodded and said: "People nowadays really dare to say anything."

Yun Chu smiled and said: "This is how the country is when it is strong. In the imperial court, they are as timid as mice. Once released, they are all man-eating tigers.

In the past few years, there is no military merit to be earned. Finally, I have a chance, so why don't you rush forward desperately? "

Gentle and low voice: "You said, Ashina Buzhen Khan ate mutton all his life, but died of mutton bones, is it credible?"

Yun Chu nodded and said: "This is the court of the Great Tang Dynasty, so it is naturally credible. A good swimmer drowns in water. This is the truth."

He smiled softly and said, "Why do I think it's because Lao Xue and Lao Pei are really Khan and have been Khan for too long?"

Yun Chu said sternly: "If you don't see it, you don't say it is a gentleman."

Gentle said again: "Tell me, this couldn't be done on purpose by Lao Xue and Lao Pei in order to bring themselves back to Chang'an, right?

After all, as long as these people and their tribe are killed again, there will be very few people in the West Turks. At that time, they can return with peace of mind. "

Yun Chu looked at the chaotic court, pointed to those veterans who were fighting for the right to dispatch troops, and said: "Those people are really pitiful."

Rourou stood on tiptoe and took a look: "Mr. Ying, Mr. Su didn't say a word, probably he has figured it out."

Yun Chu shook his head and smiled.

When the emperor deliberately cultivated a new generation of generals, they had already lost their qualifications to lead the army after conquering Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla.

The emperor left behind four prime ministers and a large group of veterans. It seemed that he wanted to invite these people to study the situation in the Western Regions with him.

Yunchu, Wenrou, and Di Renjie are naturally not qualified to participate in such a high-level meeting. They left the court early and stood at the gate of Taiji Palace holding a teapot and drinking tea to watch the sunrise in Chang'an.

As soon as the sun came out, the sunlight filled Chang'an City. Standing here, you can see clearly how the sunlight covered Chang'an City little by little.
