Doctor of the Great Song Dynasty: In the beginning, Li Qingzhao and Li Qingzhao made a private decis

Chapter 400 Dali
  "Is the Jokhang Temple willing to cooperate with the Song Dynasty?" Yao Xiong hesitated.

Everyone knows that the Song Dynasty's simultaneous support of Xisiluo was the Song Dynasty's move to split Tubo. It is impossible for the eminent monks of the Jokhang Temple not to see this, and I am afraid they are unwilling to cooperate with the Song Dynasty court's policy.

Zhong Pu sneered: "You and I are soldiers. Naturally, we know that a soldier who is unwilling to be a general is not a good soldier. The same is true for Buddhists. Even if Jokhang Temple is not willing, there is still Ramoche Temple and other temples." The eminent monk is willing."

The solution to the serfs also requires the endorsement of the Buddhists. If the senior monks of the Jokhang Temple are unwilling to cooperate with the Song Dynasty court, other monks will naturally be willing to cooperate with the Song Dynasty court. You must know that in Tubo, where Buddhism is prevalent, there are many temples comparable to the Jokhang Temple.

"The poor monk Zaka has met the two generals."

Soon, the eminent monks from the Jokhang Temple were summoned. The eminent monk Zhaka spoke fluent Chinese, which surprised the two and convinced them to choose the Jokhang Temple as their cooperation partner.

Zhong Pu looked at Zaka who looked like an ascetic monk and said bluntly: "Xiba Wen usurped the position of Gsisiluo and violated the will of the Buddha. He was killed by the Song army. I don't know what the eminent monk Zhaka has for the position of Gsisiluo." view."

Zaka's face remained unmoved, and he recited the Buddha's name and said: "Xiba Wen is not orthodox and deserves to be punished. According to the opinion of the poor monk, the position of Zusiluo should be selected after the orthodox royal family of Tubo in order to convince the public."

Yao Xiong cooperated: "The only orthodox Tubo royal family recognized by the Song Dynasty are the descendants of Songtsen Gampo."

"Songtsen Gampo!"

The eminent monk Zaka couldn't help but pause. As an eminent monk of the Jokhang Temple, how could he not know Songtsen Gampo, the founder of the Jokhang Temple? At the same time, he understood the status of this hero in the hearts of the Tubo people.

"The two generals were joking. Songtsen Gampo has passed away hundreds of years ago, and his descendants have long been unknown as to how they can succeed him." Monk Zaka said with a bitter smile.

Zhong Pu said proudly: "Although Songtsen Gampo has passed away for hundreds of years, all Tubo people are descendants of Songtsen Gampo, and they can all hold the position of Gongsiluo."

When the eminent monk Zaka heard this, his expression changed and he said: "It is absolutely impossible. If this is the case, Tubo will definitely be in war with fire everywhere, and there will never be peace again."

If every Tubo people thought that their descendants from Songtsan Gampo could succeed to the throne of Zushiluo, there would be no peace in the Tubo Plateau.

"So this requires the cooperation of Master Zaka!" Yao Xiong said.

At that moment, Zhong Pu and others introduced Fan Zheng's evil method. Upon hearing this, the eminent monk Zaka suddenly became short of breath and shook his head repeatedly.

"You must not do this, otherwise I will be a sinner of Tubo." Monk Zaka shook his head repeatedly.

Zhong Pu said proudly: "No! Master Zaka is also a saint of Tubo. Buddhism is compassionate. Master Zaka saved millions of serfs and will definitely achieve righteousness in one fell swoop."

Master Zaka couldn't help but breathe quickly. As monks, they naturally had no resistance to achieving enlightenment.

After a long time, Master Zaka cried out sadly: "If I don't go to hell, who will?"

Yao Xiong cooperated: "Master Zhaka will definitely not regret today's choice. Tubo will definitely become a Buddhist country in the world, and the Jokhang Temple will become a holy place."

At the moment, with the cooperation of Master Zaka, Song Jun convened a meeting of the lords. At that moment, the selection method for the new Zunsiluo was promulgated, and at the same time, he announced the rescue of the serfs.

The most powerful lord sneered and said: "That's nonsense. Those serfs bear the consequences of their previous lives and are here to atone for their sins in this life. How can they be elected as slaves after Songtsen Gampo?"

The other lords burst into laughter. After all, Tubo had always preached that the serfs came to atone for their sins, and they came to enjoy the blessings. After such propaganda for a long time, even they believed it.

If the sons of ordinary serfs were allowed to serve as servants, wouldn't they be riding on the heads of these masters?

Zhong Pu said proudly: "The officials of the Song Dynasty are the emperor of the day and represent the will of God. When they heard about the suffering of the serfs, they felt pity in their hearts and issued an imperial edict to pardon the serfs from all their karma and eliminate the need for atonement."

All the lords were in an uproar. No one thought that the Emperor of Song Dynasty would not win over them, but would pay attention to the serfs who no one cared about.

Lord Yangtong said in a trembling voice: "The fruits of these serfs' karma are so great that how could the Emperor of the Song Dynasty be contaminated by them?"

"Amitabha!" Master Zaka recited the Buddha's name and said solemnly: "The poor monk was inspired by the officials of the Song Dynasty. In the future, all the karma of the serfs will be borne by the poor monk. If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell."

"Master is merciful!"

A group of Jokhang monks chanted the Buddha's name.

"what!"

All the lords were immediately shocked. They used the karma of Buddhism to control the serfs. If the serfs did not need to suffer, then how could they control these serfs.

In fact, they thought too much. The Song Dynasty would not tolerate them controlling the serfs anymore. At that moment, Zhong Pu immediately announced: "The officials of the Song Dynasty have decreed that from today on, all the serfs in Tibet will be released. The farmland they cultivate will be All the cattle and sheep that are grazing belong to you.”

"What? That's our property!"

All the lords were furious after hearing this. If the sons of serfs were elected as slaves, it would be difficult for him to accept it. Not to mention the behavior of the Song army, which directly deprived their property of being owned by serfs and directly cut off their lifeblood. Isn't this right? Make them willing.

"Is the Song Dynasty going to kill the donkey?" Lord Yangtong yelled angrily.

In their view, no matter who is the slave or whether the Song people occupy Tubo, they all need to rely on them, and they are the real masters of Tubo. Who would have thought that the Song people would come to the bottom of the cauldron and completely cut off their retreat.

There were even a group of lords who wanted to resist, but were killed on the spot by the Song army. The entire reward scene was filled with blood.

"If you cooperate with the Song Dynasty officials' will to rescue the serfs, the Song Dynasty will retain your property and part of the land. Otherwise, don't blame Zhong for being ruthless!" Zhong Pu said coldly.

"Amitabha! Our Buddha is merciful. The people of Tibet are all descendants of Songtsen Gampo, so how can they atone for their sins from generation to generation?" Master Zaka declared.

All the lords were suddenly struck by lightning. Now that the Song army had the support of Buddhism, and even more support of [-]% of the serfs, there was no longer a threat in Tubo, and no one followed their resistance. They were gone.

As the Song army announced the official will of the Song Dynasty, they pardoned the serfs, lent the land and cattle and sheep rented by the serfs to themselves, and cooperated with Master Zhaka's propaganda to bear the consequences of their karma on their behalf.

The whole Luoxue City was immediately shaken, and almost all the serfs completely turned to the Song people in an instant. Only by relying on the Song people's force could they seize cattle and sheep from the lords. Now almost all the lords are trapped in Luoxue City, and the major territories are leaderless. In addition, the serfs and Buddhists have all turned to the Song people. Even if there is sporadic resistance, they will fall under the gunpowder of the Song Dynasty.

The Tubo Plateau experienced two full months of turmoil, and the complete liberation of all serfs was so smooth that Zhongpu could hardly believe it.

The situation in Tubo stabilized, and Zhong Pu and Yao Xiong could finally spare their energy to plan an attack on Dali.

"The evil prescriptions of the evil doctor Fan Zheng are indeed well-deserved. Before that, even though Zhong killed Xibawen and his son, he was still on guard and could not sleep at night. But now that Tubo has liberated the serfs, Zhong thinks he is enough to run amok on the Tubo Plateau. ." Zhong Pu said with emotion.

Once upon a time, he believed that the Song Dynasty needed at least [-] troops to control the situation, but now the Song Dynasty has not sent any reinforcements, and he obviously feels that the Song Dynasty has a stronger control over Tubo.

Yao Xiong said proudly: "Let alone deploying half of the troops from Tubo to attack Dali, as long as the Song army raises its arms, countless serfs will definitely follow and go out, and the soldiers will have no worries at all."

In just two months, the situation in Tubo has undergone earth-shaking changes. The Song army has gone from walking on thin ice to being as stable as a mountain, just because of the evil prescription of the evil doctor Fan Zheng.

As for Tubo, Zhong Pu and Yao Xiong began to collect a large amount of grain and soldiers to prepare for the expedition to Dali.

In the Sichuan and Sichuan areas, the army was also ready to attack. After nearly a year of preparations, the Song army had already completed the siege of Dali.

Dali country! The scenery of Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake is magnificent.

No, it should be Greater China.

Just a few years ago, Dali's Prime Minister Gao Shengtai deposed the Dali Emperor Duan Zhengming, forced Duan Zhengming to become a monk, proclaimed himself emperor, and changed the country's name to Dali as Great China.

Originally, this small southwestern country on the border was not important at all. However, an imperial edict from the officials of the Song Dynasty rebuked Gao Shengtai for being a rebellious minister and a traitor. He ordered Gao Shengtai to stay in the Duan family of Dali and bear the thorn to plead guilty, which directly made China a place of great influence.

"This is simply unreasonable. Dali and the Song Dynasty are both brotherly countries and do not belong to each other. How do the officials of the Song Dynasty have the right to take care of my affairs in Dali?"

In the Dali Palace, Gao Shengtai said angrily.

He was originally the powerful prime minister of Dali. He made great achievements by wiping out the rebellious Yang family. He became powerful in Dali and even abolished and established Dali.

At that time, the official family of the Song Dynasty had just come into power, and Tubo was in disarray. Gao Shengtai saw an opportunity and prepared to abolish the Duan family in Dali. He lived the emperor's addiction and everything was fine in the first few years. But who knew that four years later he would suddenly be The officials of the Song Dynasty launched an attack.

"Father! Back then, I advised my father to be cautious. Now that the officials of the Song Dynasty suddenly come forward for the Duan family, it will definitely cause changes in the Duan family and other tribes. If the Gao family is not careful, I am afraid there will be a disaster of annihilation of the clan." His son. Gao Taiming said worriedly.

After all, Dali is a small country. The Gao family and his son have just usurped the throne and have not yet established a stable footing. In addition, most of the Duan family have taken refuge in Buddhism and become monks to avoid disaster. You must know that Tubo Buddhism is huge, and Dali Buddhism is equally powerful. Even the Gao family and his son are powerful. , and did not dare to kill Duan who had become a monk.

"Is it because the officials of the Song Dynasty are dissatisfied that we don't have much property as a tribute, so you immediately prepared a generous gift to express your surrender to the Song Dynasty! It means that China is willing to double the property of the original Dali Kingdom's tribute!" Gao Shengtai said through gritted teeth.

This time, he was prepared to spend money to eliminate the disaster. As long as the Song Dynasty retreated its troops and did not interfere in Dali's domestic affairs, everything would be easy to negotiate.

Gao Taiming nodded slightly and said: "This method can be tried, but father must be prepared. It is said that the uncle of the young emperor of Goryeo also gave generous gifts to the officials of the Song Dynasty, intending to get the Song Dynasty to support his seizure of power, but was denied by the officials of the Song Dynasty. , who maintains Chinese orthodoxy, and the Song Dynasty is the richest in the world, I am afraid that he does not value our wealth at all."

Since the Gao family usurped power, they naturally paid special attention to the movements of the Song Dynasty, and they naturally knew the attitude of the Song Dynasty in the struggle for imperial power in Goryeo.

"The Great Song Dynasty has always been known as the weak Song Dynasty. If I defend Dali according to the danger, I will definitely make it impossible for the Song army to come back." Gao Shengtai said fiercely.

Gao Taiming said helplessly: "Father, today's Song Dynasty is not the weak Song Dynasty it once was. It continuously defeated Xixia and forced the Liao Dynasty to retreat. At the same time, it first destroyed Qingtang, then Tubo, and finally........."

Gao Taiming carefully reviewed the marching route of the Song Dynasty and was suddenly surprised. From Qingtang to Tubo and then to Dali, the Song Dynasty might have designed this route from the beginning.

"The Song Dynasty was so ambitious that it couldn't defeat Xixia and Liao Kingdom, but it actually plotted against me, Dali." Gao Shengtai couldn't help but said angrily.

He said, how could the Song Dynasty be so kind to help the Duan family of Dali to resettle? It turned out that he had already planned to plot Dali, and all the rebuke was just an excuse.

Gao Taiming was moved in his heart and said: "Father, if that's the case, then why don't we find Duan and explain to him the wolfish ambitions of the Song Dynasty. If everyone in Dali works together, we will definitely be able to defeat the Song army."

Gao Shengtai sneered: "Even if the Duan family believes that the Song Dynasty is plotting Dali, the Duan family will not help me pay a high price. After all, the Duan family hates me more than the Gao family. Even if the Song Dynasty captures the Song Dynasty, the Duan family still needs to support the Duan family to control Dali." , not to mention that the current Duan Zhengming will not believe us at all, after all, we have just seized the throne from him, and the Song Dynasty destroyed my Gao family to avenge the Duan family."

Gao Taiming snorted coldly and said: "Now that things have happened, no matter whether the Duan family is willing or not, they must do it. Even if Duan Zhengming is not willing, his brother Duan Zhengchun is a weak and lustful person. As long as we use his family as a threat , they will definitely be able to cooperate with us."

"There is only one way to treat a dead horse as a live doctor."

Gao Shengtai sighed and suddenly coughed violently. He couldn't help but regret that he had wanted to seek the throne of Dali for the sake of ghosts, otherwise there would be no disaster today.

In Dali! Also in shock.

Today's Song Dynasty is not the weak Song Dynasty it once was. The consecutive defeats of Xixia have already made the Song Dynasty famous, not to mention the destruction of Qingtang first and then Tubo, which made Dali feel like a thorn in the back.

"The Song Dynasty plotted against Dali for no reason, which is against the etiquette of the country." Some people in Dali were very dissatisfied.

"The Gao family's rebellious ministers and traitors, who plotted to usurp the throne, deserve retribution. The Song Dynasty is the teacher of the king." Some people were quite dissatisfied with the Gao family and secretly sarcastically said.

The entire Dali Kingdom was immediately divided into two factions. There were those who opposed sending troops to the Song Dynasty, and there were also those who supported it.

As Fan Zheng expected, after all, the Duan clan of Dali had just lost their country, and their emperor Duan Zhengming was still a monk in the temple. The people of Dali had not lost their support. This was the best time to plan for the Dali kingdom.

In Dali Chongsheng Temple, a graceful monk was worshiping Buddha in front of Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake. Although the Buddhist teachings were extraordinary, there was still a hint of unwillingness in his eyebrows.

He is the last emperor of Dali, Duan Zhengming, whose Buddhist name is Benchen.
