Chapter 290 Heresy
Outside the mosque, people came and went, because the trade routes in the South Tang Dynasty were cut off, resulting in short supply of supplies in Bianliang and rising prices.
Hu merchants who came from the west had made a fortune by raising prices and increasing goods.
In an extraordinary time, Chen Shou did not dare to sanction rashly, so he could only suffer the loss and hoarded goods from the Western Regions.
After all, at this time, gold and silver are pressed into their hands, just like scrap iron, only materials are the most important.
On Gaogang not far away, there was a man in blue clothes standing next to him, with a dark horse eating grass leisurely. He stared at the mosque with a strong incense, without a trace of his eyes, and he was clearly wandering around and didn't know what he was thinking.
Around him were the six Golden Feather Guards standing, wearing armor and holding sharp edges, looking around vigilantly. Chen Shou was the only one who had such treatment in Bianliang.
Later, a young girl stood with a cloak in her hand, wearing a big red woven gold jacket, a colorful goose yellow brocade skirt, a small cherry mouth, white teeth, red lips, and a petite and tender lips. Although she looked petite and tender, she was also a lively and fragrant little beauty.
Seeing the wind is strong, she walked up to tie the cloak for the man and said softly: "Master, it's strong here, be careful of catching a cold."
Chen Shou turned his head and looked at her, and said, "Xianglin, accompany me to the night snow in Loulan."
Li Xianglin smiled sweetly, couldn't help but feel happy, nodded, and Chen Shou picked her up and placed her on the horse's back.
The horse that Liu Zhiyuan gave him was already well-known. Although it was a war horse in Xiliang and had been on the battlefield, he was very gentle.
Li Xianglin cried out in a coquettish voice. Chen Shou had already stepped on the stirrup and got on the horse's horse's horse's belly. The guards behind him followed closely.
When I arrived at the Yexue Gate of Loulan, this place became a place where big Hu merchants gathered, with traffic outside the door.
Chen Shou came in through the side door, and after getting off the horse, he took his concubine and handed the horse whip to the door. The person guarding the door had long recognized him and told the door to tie the horse and lead the way respectfully.
When he arrived at the second floor, Baitash was chatting with several Hu people. When he heard that Chen Shou was coming, he looked happy and stood up and said, "The most powerful Zhongyong Marquis in Daqi, the current Lord of Bianliang, is here, I'll go and receive it."
Several Hu people showed admiration on their faces and stood up one after another, letting him do whatever he wanted.
Chen Shou himself has a separate private room, which is cleaned on weekdays, but he is only allowed to use when he comes.
After entering, a small table was covered with Persian carpets and several futons.
Chen Shou stretched out his hand, Li Xianglin took off his cloak and hung it. The two of them walked to the cushion and sat down.
Two Hu Ji came to the tea tray, and Li Xianglin smiled and said, "My master likes to renew new tea and water. The tea leaves are left and the stove is burned, and I boil the water myself."
The two Hu Ji responded, and brought two pots of clear water in the gas-burning small mud stove behind the screen. Li Xianglin looked at Chen Shou, turned around and went to boil water.
After a while, Bayitash rushed in excitedly and immediately said to Chen Shou: "My friend, you haven't been here for a long time. It is said that your army is fighting in all directions. Why are you free to come today?"
Chen Shou smiled and said, "I really can't get out of my body recently, but today I suddenly remembered you, so I came over and take a look."
Bayitash and Youyou are honored. Chen Shou's status today has allowed him to be admired among the Hu people because of his relationship with Chen Shou.
As a prince who lost power, Bayitash had no status, but he was a friend of the most powerful person in Daqi, so he became different.
Because Chen Shou's words can change the fate of Hu merchants. If you lose the Eastern market, you will lose the source of wealth.
All the wealthy merchants of the Karakhan Dynasty made profits by connecting with the East and the West.
The more Baitash looked at Chen Shou, the more he liked him. How could he know that he could have the status he is today?
In fact, he might have forgotten that at that time, as a betrayal dog, Baitash met Chen Shou, and was the only powerful and powerful person he could contact with.
He was confused by the fact that he was so sick that he would definitely not say that to his Hu friends.
Li Xianglin boiled hot water, brewed tea, brought it to Chen Shou, poured it for him, and sat aside pretty.
Baitash knew her identity and was Chen Shou's concubine rather than a maid, so he asked politely.
Chen Shou laughed and said, "I have always known your ambition. You want to return to the Karakhan and take back your throne. But have you ever thought that there are still fewer Karakhans in Daqi. One day, can you seize the opportunity?"
"I..." Bayitash was about to ask Chen Shou for help, saying that his backer was him and he was all counting on him.
But he still didn't say it halfway because he didn't know what Chen Shou meant yet.
Chen Shou did not give him time to react and continued, "Even if I can help you, the army of Daqi was launched into the Karakhan Dynasty at that time, and you got the throne of your kingdom with the help of outsiders. Will your people recognize you?"
"You know, you are using a warrior who does not believe in Allah, and you can kill Muslims."
Chen Shou's words were heartbroken, and Bayitash took a breath. He was just thinking about borrowing troops, but he never thought about this problem.
If the patriarchs of those tribes all opposed themselves, even if they became kings, they would not last long.
A fanatical believer will cut off his head one day.
But I have been driven out, how can I bring up a team that is loyal to me?
Chen Shou took a sip of tea, followed suit, and continued to guide: "You need an army that is loyal to you, all of them are devout and enthusiastic Muslims. Only in this way can you have the capital to go back and get your throne back."
"My friend, please teach me!"
Chen Shou smiled but said nothing. When Baitash saw that he clearly had a solution and said anxiously: "Please teach me, I will give you all my money to repay you."
"Your only support is the holy stone! If you have the holy stone, you must make a fuss about it. That is, the holy stone suddenly shines in the east. Allah uses the holy stone to give up his will and ask you to kill all the heresies."
"Who is the heresy?"
"When you have mastered the will of the Lord, whoever you say is heresy is heresy. You need to find the legal basis from the Hadith and public discussion of the Qur’an, even if it is tampered with and misinterpretation. As long as you can make up your own words, you can be responsible for other people as heresy. We will spend a lot of money to send people to the West to preach to you. At that time, you will gather a group of people in the mosque in Bianliang, call on everyone to participate in the holy war and eliminate heresy!"
"The more suppressed this kind of news, the more people believe it, the more difficult it is to realize it, the more fanatical believers are willing to die for Allah."
Bayitash's face turned red and he shook his head and said, "This is a blasphemy to Allah!"
"No, this is your only chance."
