Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

They also have temple monks in Fusang Kingdom, and they are no strangers to Buddhist teachings.Moreover, in Fusang Kingdom, the status of Buddhists is higher than that of ordinary samurai, because the emperors of all dynasties respected Buddhism and often liked to use Buddhist teachings to teach and restrain the people of Fusang.

So after hearing about the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism in the Central Plains, Yagyu Kyoyoshi and Bei Chenichiro, who were born in Fusang nobles, still sympathized with the Buddhism in the Central Plains.

Now after hearing Guo Ye say this method, they all started to think about it one after another.

At this time, after watching the expressions of the two of them, Guo Ye felt a little embarrassed in his heart, and wondered whether his suggestion could be accepted by the two of them.

In fact, the method he said was not instructed by His Majesty Li Er, on the contrary, he wanted to use His Majesty Li Er and these two Fusang devils to play a trick and find a way to cross the Buddhist gate of Datang to Fusang. .

One, it was out of Guo Ye's kindness.He doesn't hate Buddhism as much as His Majesty Li Er and Yuan Tiangang, and people in Buddhism, such as the great monk Xuanzang, in his opinion, are all virtuous and eminent monks. It would be too much to be killed in the Central Plains like this If he committed a crime, he couldn't bear it.

Second, it is out of consideration for the strategic intention of the Fusang country.He knew that in today's Fusang country, Buddhism is more popular in the island country because of the praise of Emperor Fusang.If all the Buddhists from the Tang Dynasty were sent to Fusang Kingdom, and they were only allowed to take away Buddhist scriptures, cassocks, wooden fish and other things, but not food seeds, agricultural tools and equipment, it would be a bad idea. good thing.

Think about it, a few years later, there will be pagodas and temples everywhere in Fusang, monks everywhere, monks preaching scriptures everywhere, and people in Fusang worshiping temples everywhere, opening their mouths to see Amitabha, so good.What kind of scene would that be?

I dare not say that Buddhism can be used to make the little devils lay down their butcher knives and become Buddhas immediately, so that the descendants of the little devils will no longer covet and greed the Central Plains in the future, but at least it can reduce the little devils' admiration for martial arts.

Slowly changing the hearts of the little devils from admiring martial arts to a heart of worshiping Buddha is definitely the most cost-effective deal in the world.

Let the wolves full of sharp teeth become useless, let them only know how to pray to God and worship Buddha.So why should we be afraid of such a country, such a nation?What's so scary about it?

Compared with the first point, Guo Ye pays more attention to the second point.

After thinking for a while, Guo Ye saw that the two were still sitting in their original positions, continued to bow his head in meditation, and couldn't help urging: "Two guests who came from afar, what do you think of my proposal?"

Bei Chenichiro didn't answer first this time, because he really couldn't make up his mind about this matter.

So, he shifted his eyes to Yagyu Kyoyoshi, wanting him to make up his mind.

Yagyu Koyoshi nodded, took a deep breath, then slowly stood up from the high chair, and said solemnly: "This is a big matter, I dare not make any claims, and I have to tell the emperor before I can answer Mr. Guo. "

Guo Ye pondered for a while, damn it, if you wait until you inform the Fusang island country, there must be someone with insight in the Fusang court.

So, he spread his hands out of embarrassment, and said, "Patriarch Liu Sheng is right, but Fusang and Datang are separated by the sea, and it may take half a year to send letters back and forth? By then, I'm afraid The day lily is cold! I think this matter must be cut quickly, and it will work when His Majesty is in need of a solution right now!"

Yagyu Kyoyoshi was silent, but nodded his head, as if agreeing with Guo Ye's words.

He hesitated for a while, then glanced at Bei Chenichiro who was sitting across from him, finally frowned, gritted his teeth and said to Guo Ye in a deep voice: "Master Guo Jungong, we will no longer hide the matter from Your Excellency. In fact, it is not the two of us who actually led the delegation to visit your country this time, but someone else, and he is the eldest prince of Emperor Fuso—His Royal Highness, Crown Prince Kusakabe!"

When Guo Ye heard this, he was stunned. Nima, these two little devils are just puppets in front of the scenes, and there is a Fusang Crown Prince behind the scenes?

Crown Prince Kusakabe?What kind of bad name is this?

At the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart, it seems that the intelligence skills of An Ye and Guan Jiujiu are still not up to par!

Chapter 1122

"From Patriarch Liu Sheng's words, His Royal Highness Cao Bi, the crown prince of your country, is also in Chang'an now?"

Guo Ye's question is actually a waste of time to ask. Yagyu Kyoyoshi has already made it very clear that he and Bei Chenichiro are just pawns in front of the scene. The real decision of the Dongdu Datang exchange group is the crown prince. Grass wall.

When Guo Ye asked such a question, Yagyu Koyoshi immediately felt as if he had been caught stealing chickens at night, which was extremely embarrassing.Even Bei Chenichiro, who was not good at words, turned his head away with a strange expression.

It's no wonder that the two of them couldn't hold back their faces. You must know that although they were ordered by Emperor Shu Ming to come to Datang to steal the skills and culture of the Central Plains, they did so under the guise of a non-governmental exchange group, and the purpose was to not make the Tang court wary.At the same time, I also want to see if the current Tang court is the same as the previous Yang family's Sui Dynasty, whether they all adopt a default attitude towards their fusang country's coming to the Central Plains to do this kind of sneaky business.

So this time Yagyu Kyoyoshi pushed the crown prince Kusakabi from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, slapping himself and his master Shu Minghuang in the face, admitting the previous lies.

Unless Guo Ye is a fool, otherwise, how could he believe that the exchange group hosted by Crown Prince Fusang would be an ordinary non-governmental exchange group?

Yagyu Kyoyoshi and Hokuto Ichiro would have kept the secret of Crown Prince Kusakabe secret until they stole enough skills and culture from the Central Plains and then left Datang.

But now the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has been unwilling to summon them. He can't bear the thousands of people eating, drinking and sleeping in Chang'an for such a long time. The money back to Fusang is gone.

Now that Guo Ye has spoken out this workaround, it seems that Yagyu Koryo and his two have found a new hope, and it is also the only hope.

After weighing the pros and cons, the two finally couldn't hold back and pushed Crown Prince Caobi to the front of the screen.

Guo Ye looked at the unnatural expressions of the two, and felt indescribably happy in his heart.However, he was not overwhelmed by the momentary pleasure, and he secretly reminded himself that now is not the time to ridicule these little devils, the most important thing is the most important thing...

Immediately, he chuckled, deliberately pretending to be stupid, and said in a daze: "Oh, it turns out that the crown prince of your country is so interesting. The majestic crown prince is not enjoying the blessings in Fusang, but he likes to play in the Tang Dynasty pretending to be a commoner? Liu Sheng Patriarch, Patriarch Beichen, I am not talking about you, you are really confused, and you are fooling around with your highness the crown prince. His status is so respectful, if something goes wrong on the way, how can you talk to your majesty the emperor after you go back? Confession? Tell me, don’t you?”

Bei Chenichiro shook his head immediately when he heard the words, bowed solemnly, and categorically denied: "Master Shangbang misunderstood, it's not that we are confused, but that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of our country came to the Tang Dynasty at the order of the Emperor... woo... Woooo..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yagyu Kyoyoshi was already out of breath, jumped up while stepping on clogs regardless of his manners, and covered Kita Chenichiro's mouth with his hand, preventing him from pushing him any further.

After stopping Bei Chenichiro, Yagyu Kyoyoshi bowed to Guo Ye again and again and said: "Yes, yes, yes, what Guo Jungong said is very true, every word is like a blow to the head, we know we are wrong! Alas, the Caobi crown prince is young and reckless , to do such a thing like Meng Lang, but we condone and cover him up, and help him hide His Majesty the Emperor, what a sin! After returning to Fusang, Lord Beichen and I will plead guilty in front of His Majesty the Emperor!"

After Yagyu Kyoyoshi said these words, he was very grateful to Guo Ye for a hundred and a thousand.

Although Guo Ye's words were full of lessons and blame, how could he not hear that Guo Ye wanted to help them cover up?Guo Ye's remarks were just to express his position, saying that he did not want to pursue the fact that they came to Datang under the guise of a private exchange group under the emperor's order.

Good man!

This Duke Guo of the Heavenly Kingdom is really a good man, there is no other good man in the world.

I have neither friendship nor friendship with him, and the other party is so selfless to help them cover the cover.

Yagyu Kyoyoshi couldn't help thinking secretly, could this Duke Guo be thinking about the two boxes of salted fish he sent this time?

That's right, the mackerel is the most valuable fish in Da Fusang, which is enough to express his respect for the Duke of Guo.The Han people in the Central Plains pay attention to throwing peaches and rewards in return. Maybe the other party has this kind of thinking in mind.

After thinking about this festival, Yagyu Kyoyoshi had already made up his mind, next time he came to Datang, and then to Chang'an, he must bring two more boxes of mackerel and salted fish for this Guo Jungong, no, bring a full ten boxes.

Guo Ye couldn't guess what Yagyu Kyoliang was thinking, if he knew that Yagyu Kyoliang would still want to bring ten boxes of stinky salted fish for himself next time, he would vomit.

He glanced at Yagyu Yagyu Kyoyoshi, who was a slippery ghost, and asked, "Patriarch Yagyu, do you have any objection to the workaround I proposed?"

"Mr. Guo, as far as I'm concerned, I definitely agree with it. But it's okay~"

Liu Sheng Gongliang said hesitantly: "I still say the same thing. This is a big matter. Mr. Beichen and I dare not make arbitrarily assertive opinions. We must first invite His Royal Highness Caobi Crown Prince."

Guo Ye hummed, and suggested: "It's not too late, why don't Patriarch Liu Sheng sit with me first, Patriarch Bei Chenichiro will make a hard trip, and invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of your country to my house to listen to his advice. mean, how?"

Liu Sheng Gongliang shook his head with embarrassment, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm afraid I can't. Going to invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at this time will definitely make him unhappy. Why don't I go back with Mr. Beichen and report the ins and outs of this matter together After giving it to His Highness the Crown Prince, I will reply to Duke Guo tomorrow."

Guo Ye was slightly taken aback, and he couldn't understand why going to invite Crown Prince Caobi at this time would make him angry.Could it be that the Crown Prince Fusang is still sleeping in broad daylight?

Just as he was about to ask, Yagyu Kyoyoshi explained in a low voice: "I would also like to invite Gong Haihan of Guojun, His Royal Highness Caobi Crown Prince has admired the profound and profound culture of the Central Plains since he was a child, and is especially interested in plump women in your country. Since he came to Chang'an, he has been hanging around in Pingkangfang. These days, he has been living in the Fengmanlou in Pingkangfang. Ahem... Mr. Beichen and I haven't seen him for several days .At this time, if I'm not mistaken, he should still be...uh, you know."

I understand, why don't you understand?

Guo Ye smiled, nodded frequently to express his understanding, but in his heart he scolded the Caobi prince bloody, damn it, you little devil, you really don't change your sex, the majestic Fusang crown prince, unexpectedly came to Chang'an Mengzi plunged into the chicken coop.If such a crown prince takes over the Fusang throne in the future, it will be a blessing to the Tang Dynasty and China.

Thinking of this, Guo Ye also thought of the most effective way to deal with the Crown Prince Fusang.

So, he hummed and said: "Well, if that's the case, the two of you should go back first. Let's see you tomorrow. If your crown prince has any questions, you can invite him to my residence tomorrow." .”

Yagyu Kyoyoshi thanked him again and again, and finally he and Bei Chenichiro bid farewell to Guo Ye and walked out of the living room.
