Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin looked at each other with a smile on their faces, they really forgot about it if they didn't remind them!

"People in Baekje believe in Buddhism, so why don't we follow the logic and promote the "Mahayana Buddhism"?" Li Shimin spoke slowly, his eyes shining brightly.

"That still hasn't solved the Baekje people returning to Datang!"

The corner of Niu Jinda's mouth twitched. This "Mahayana Buddhism" was specially compiled to fool people, but it didn't seem to solve the problems of land and taxation!

"It's not easy!" Changsun Wuji said with contempt: "Legalize temples, include taxation in Mahayana Buddhism, and change it to merit money. The imperial court only collects money from temples."

"Establish another living Buddha, spread the Dharma of the Tang Dynasty, and manage the people of Baekje!!"

"As for the land and food, they will be renamed worldly things. Killing and eating will cause karma. Only by becoming a Tang Dynasty citizen and believing in the Living Buddha can the karma be eliminated and you can go to the Western Pure Land."

"···"

Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji said to each other, directly stunned Niu Jinda, the corners of his mouth twitching.

"The people of Baekje are not afraid of death, can this and that be changed?" Su Dingfang thought for a while and said.

"How does Aiqing want to change?"

"Why don't you get rid of his bravery and act like a eunuch after castration, with a slender voice, a soft face, erect orchid fingers, wearing a woman's dress, and bowing his knees..."

The corners of the mouths of the crowd kept twitching after hearing this.

It seems as if you can see Baekje people with slender bodies, soft faces, and orchid fingers talking on the street.

"It's really disgusting, my family hurt this tender little hand again today~ 嘤嘤"

"Ah, the slave family hates it even more, but I accidentally cut a piece of skin on the vegetables~ 嘤嘤"

The people on the side saw that one had a callus and the other had cut a nail.

Thinking of this, everyone shivered involuntarily, and looked at Su Dingfang with strange eyes. They didn't expect him to look taciturn and speak so harshly.

"Wonderful, really wonderful!!" Niu Jinda patted his thigh, laughed and shouted loudly: "General, this really belongs to you!!"

"Ahem, just a whim, a whim." Su Dingfang was a little embarrassed.

The corner of Changsun Wuji's mouth twitched, expressing his doubts that re-establishing a living Buddha and paying taxes in temples could be a success.

Because the living Buddha really exists, it is just a Living Buddha from Tang Dynasty.Moreover, the temple is also in collusion with the local nobles, and paying taxes is just a change of name.

It's just that if this man is turned into a woman and put on a skirt, what fool would do?

"Don't worry, they are so fooled by Buddhism that they are not afraid of death, so what's the point of wearing a skirt and pretending to be a woman?" Li Shimin smiled and said nothing.

"Big deal, I will give this kind of people tax exemption!!"

"If it's tax-free, it will definitely succeed!!" Changsun Wuji pursed his lips and didn't know what to say.

"Give such a man a good name."

Changsun Wuji thought for a while and said, "Why don't you call me a sissy?"

"Bitch, what's the explanation?" Li Shimin asked puzzled.

"Men wear women's dresses, and their bodies are feminine, for sissies.

If a country is full of sissies, wouldn't it be as if its spine was shattered by a cannonball, spineless and vulnerable?

So I think it should be called a sissy. "Changsun Wuji said with a smile.

"Wonderful, you are really talented." Niu Jinda was extremely impressed. This person who read a lot is different, and every word he thinks is different.

"Okay, what a sissy." Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction, the intention was obviously to break the backbone of the Baekje people, weaken them physically and mentally, and make them unable to resist anymore. Heart.

"I can send an order to call some sensible eminent monks to compile a new "Mahayana Buddhism", respecting women, taking femininity as beauty, and using women's dresses as backbone, only those who have attained the Tao can castrate themselves... "

After all, to promote Buddhism on a large scale, castration cannot be promoted at will, because it may cause infection and death, and death will naturally affect reputation.

So the best way is to let them all put on women's dresses and turn into sissies, which can ensure their obedience, and even if they resist, they don't need to spend much effort.

After all, it's not a problem for one person to hit ten or eight of such things as sissies.

Chapter 226

Everyone bowed their heads and saluted: "Your Majesty is holy!" After exchanging glances, they were somewhat expecting that all Baekje people would turn into sissies.

Li Shimin nodded, looked at the empty city gate below, and said coldly: "I have an order to stop here today, and let all these Confucian scholars withdraw! Then let Living Buddha Dao Chen and several eminent monks come to see him I!"

"Yes!"

Soon, Dao Chen and a group of eminent monks were invited before Li Shimin with apprehensive expressions: "My servants see the Holy One."

"Free gift!"

Li Shimin glanced at the monk in front of him, showed a kind smile, and said straight to the point: "You are all eminent and respected monks of Baekje, have you ever thought of passing on the Buddha through books and living forever?"

"Huh?" Dao Chen was stunned for a moment, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he began to think quickly.

All the blame for my crimes has been pushed to the dead King Baekje, and I have been keeping a low profile lately...

This suddenly let me write a book, and it will be famous forever. Could it be that I want to take the opportunity to kill myself?

Seeing Li Shimin's kind smile, Dao Chen hesitated at the moment, and said tentatively.

"It's not enough for me to learn consciously. If the Holy One asks me to write, will I write with all my might?"

Li Shimin waved his hand: "Don't worry, you just need to make some revisions to this Dharma book according to my requirements." He doesn't want this fat monk's life, as long as the fat monk revises Dharma properly.

While talking, the eunuch distributed the "Mahayana Buddhism" and requirements to the monks present.

The monks looked at the pinyin version of "Mahayana Buddhism" in front of them, and looked at each other, a little dumbfounded. Could it be that they really came to exchange Buddhism?

"Open it and see what I want!!" Li Shimin's faint voice came.

After hearing the words, the monks opened it and saw a piece of paper in the Mahayana Dharma, on which Li Shimin's request was written.

Make men wear women's clothing and be that bitch?

Can the Taoist castrate himself and escape from the sea of ​​suffering?

To be a person of the Tang Dynasty, to be the Buddha of the Tang Dynasty can only go to the Pure Land of the Western Paradise! ?

···

The monks were stunned and couldn't help but took a deep breath.

For a while, there were inhaling sounds one after another in the hall.

How is this asking us to write a book... This is clearly depriving the Baekje people of their courage to resist, and making them all obediently be obedient citizens of the Tang Dynasty!

Many monks were sweating coldly, and with the influence of the current eminent monks, especially the influence and prestige of Dao Chen, I am afraid that Baekje people will really believe in this "Mahayana Buddhism".

At that time, maybe all the streets of Baekje, men and women will be wearing dresses, not to mention mustering up the courage to rebel, I am afraid that it will be a problem whether you can find a bold one.

This is such a ruthless scheme!

A monk hurriedly stood up, clasped his hands together, bowed to Li Shimin, summoned up his courage and said, "Excuse me for my lack of knowledge, I'm afraid..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Shimin snorted coldly, raised his eyebrows, stared at him closely and said, "I just ordered you to write, and I didn't give you the right to refuse."

"It's not that the old monk doesn't write, it's that the old monk has little knowledge...and can't write what His Majesty asks." The monk was sweating profusely, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

Li Shimin sneered, looked around the group of monks and said: "I feel that there is a shortage of everyone in this world, except that monk!"

The implication is obvious, if this group of monks don't write, and find another group of monks, as for the fate of this group of monks, it will definitely not be good.

The monk looked desperate, and immediately summoned up his courage, threateningly said: "This kind of crime is heinous, isn't Your Majesty afraid of that Buddha?" He tried to question Li Shimin to force him to retreat.

Faced with the monk's questioning, Li Shimin's mouth was raised in disdain, his eyes showed domineering, and he said angrily: "The Buddha is in the West Heaven, and I am in Baekje! This place is up to me!"

"This... this." The monk immediately knelt down, clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and recited Buddhist scriptures, trying to impress Li Shimin.

The full house of monks looked at each other, this kind of interrogation was always harmful, even the former king of Baekje would be afraid and give in more or less, but Li Shimin did not waver in the slightest,

How could these monks have imagined that Li Shimin, who has been influenced by science, would believe in Buddha. If he wants to believe in it, he must also believe in science.

"Come here." Li Shimin summoned.

The fully armed Imperial Forest Army appeared in front of Li Shimin: "The minister is here."

All the monks felt a chill in their hearts. Before they could do anything, Li Shimin waved his hand and said.

"I am worried that the Buddha will not be able to hear the sutras that the master recited. You send the master to the west, and let him listen to the teachings of the Buddha himself."

"Yes."

The Imperial Forest Army set up the monk without changing his face, and dragged him outside. The monk immediately panicked and read even louder.

After a while, the sound of chanting disappeared, and all the monks were extremely disturbed at the moment, with sad expressions on their faces.

"Everyone, is there anyone who thinks that they are not knowledgeable enough to write?" Li Shimin's eyes were like knives, and he swept across the faces of many monks.

All the monks felt a chill in their hearts. Now it is not a question of whether to write or not, but a question of life.

He was right, the Buddha was in Xitian, but the emperor of the Tang Dynasty was in Baekje, and now the emperor of the Tang Dynasty had the final say. As for the integrity, who would become a monk if they really wanted it?

As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, Daochen's broad forehead was covered with sweat, and he spoke first, "I... I can write."

With the first one taking the lead, all the monks echoed one after another: "My lord, I can also write..."

"Yeah." Li Shimin's eyes were full of sarcasm, he couldn't help crying when he saw the coffin, and he had to kill one or two bald donkeys before he was willing to write, what a shame.

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin got up directly and left towards the door, throwing out a sentence: "Come here, take care of the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and then tell the kitchen to treat the master well these few days!!"

"Yes!"

"Master please."

The monks looked at the soldiers blocking the door, and at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of them. This is the rhythm of not letting people go until they finish writing! !

Dao Chen heaved a long sigh, and his eyes conveyed the message [write, or my life will be in danger. 】

All the monks could only sigh together, and began to write vigorously.

But soon, something that made them even more desperate appeared. Changsun Wuji taught them pinyin.

Although both countries use Chinese characters, their pronunciations differ by thousands of miles, and how can the common people know how to read?

It's not that the monk can read it however he says, and can change it however he wants.

But with pinyin, the speed of spread may not take a few months, and everyone in Baekje may come back.

But they don't have a choice.

----

three days later.

With the hard work of many eminent monks day and night, the new version of "Mahayana Buddhism" will be released soon.

At the same time, a special printing workshop was established to print the new edition of Mahayana Buddhism.

It still lives on the tower of the city of Baba.

Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others watched here.

As before, tables and chairs were visited on both sides of the city gate. The difference was that above the tables were wooden plaques and a brand-new "Mahayana Buddhism", and those sitting were not Confucian scholars, but monks in red cassocks with reflective heads.

Daochen personally led a group of monks to parade in the streets, and the gongs and drums became the sound of bells and rhythmic wooden fish.

Just listening to the sound of "Dang~" the bell spread far and wide, and Dao Chen and his loved ones began to sing their unique Buddhist voice: "Namo Amitabha ~ Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is merciful~"

Many Baekje people opened the door and looked at the team with doubts on their faces.

"Isn't my Buddha a Tathagata?"

"It should, it should be! Follow the eminent monk to have a look!"

"···"

Soon, Dao Chen's parade team came to a special venue.

In the middle is a Buddha statue. It was originally supposed to be a Tathagata with a fat belly and benevolent eyebrows, but now it has been replaced by the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva with a handsome face and a woman-like face holding an orchid finger.

There are many sacrifices in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the monks are neatly arranged in front of the Bodhisattva, knocking on the wooden fish solemnly.

Living Buddha Daochen waved his hand, and all the people stopped immediately, and countless Baiji people looked at him with fanatical admiration.

"My Buddha is Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva...Great kindness and compassion, I should emulate..."

"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, this is a man!? Great mercy?"

Under Dao Chen and the eminent monk's non-stop flickering day and night, the Baekje people quickly accepted this strange gender, and readily imitated it, and the plan was implemented quite smoothly.
