When Li Chong stood still, the attendant shouted the call again.
Everyone knew that this time they must have summoned the Tibetan envoys. For a moment, all the officials calmed down and held their breath. They showed their majestic posture. The officials felt that they could not lose the majesty of the Tang Dynasty.
"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty issued an order to summon the Tibetan envoys to the palace to meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"
Dong Dong, a young man wearing Tibetan clothing and felt hat strode in from outside the hall. This man was tall and tall, with a rough face, but his temperament was elegant and indifferent. He had a certain momentum. Behind him were three monks wearing robes.
An old monk with white hair. The three old monks looked solemn and calm, and followed the man step by step.
"Prince Tride Songtsen of Tibet pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."
The man went to the center of the hall and bowed to Emperor Taizong.
"The poor monk is not empty, the good is fearless, and the diamond wisdom has met His Majesty the King of Tang!"
The three old monks behind him looked indifferent and just bowed slightly to the Buddha.
"Get flat!"
Taizong looked majestic, sitting on the dragon chair, calm and steady, with the aura of being in control of the country. He looked at the four people under his highness and said calmly.
"Your Majesty, King of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty respected Confucianism and Taoism, which made Confucianism and Taoism prosperous, educated the world, and established a state of etiquette. Today, there are more Confucian events in Chang'an, which makes me, Tubo, yearn for it. Therefore, I, Tubo Zanpu, sent us here to study and inquire."
The Tubo prince looked at Taizong and said respectfully.
After listening to the words of the Tubo prince, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were slightly satisfied. This barbarian country actually knew how to respect the way of the saints and had the learning of the saints in mind.
Seeing the reactions of all the ministers in the palace, Chide Songtsan flashed a hint of cunning in his eyes and continued.
"In the Tang Dynasty, Confucianism and Taoism prevailed. People knew etiquette and rituals, respected heaven and earth, and felt happy and calm. However, I found that people in the Tang Dynasty were greedy for sex and misfortune. They killed many people and were greedy. They were immersed in the world of words and evil, and were in a sea of right and wrong. There is no such thing as
I express the pure and benevolent style of Bo, and conduct good deeds and upright conduct.
Therefore, I feel that Tibet and the Tang Dynasty should learn from each other in terms of academic exchanges, complement each other, perfect the art of education, and correct the etiquette.
Now that the Buddhist Dharma has been passed down to the world in Tubo, I Zanpu feels that the art of this saint should be passed on to the Tang Dynasty, so I have come here to exchange and learn from the Tang Dynasty. I also ask for your permission, His Majesty the King of Tang."
After Chide Songtsan finished speaking, his expression was respectful and sly. The three old monks behind him remained silent, with lowered eyebrows and lowered eyes, with solemn expressions.
As soon as Tride Songtsan finished speaking, a minister next to him immediately sharply criticized him.
"Taoism and Confucianism are prevalent in our dynasty, and Confucianism is the most important thing to educate the world, so that everyone in our Tang Dynasty is willing to do good, and everyone understands etiquette. Wherever we teach Confucianism, human ethics are at the highest level, good and evil can be understood, and loyalty and filial piety are practiced. How can we be greedy?
Fornication and pleasure are a disaster. And your Buddhism only imitates the mysterious words of Lao Zhuang and embellishes the illusory teachings. How can it be compared with my Confucian way of being a saint?
Our dynasty and Buddhism have long concluded that they are evil demons and heretics, and our emperor has already issued an order to restrict Buddhism. The Tibetan envoys should not talk nonsense in an attempt to whitewash the deviant religion and slander our way of being a saint."
The minister's impassioned words immediately won the approval of both civil and military officials.
Hearing someone's rebuttal and looking at the expressions of the ministers of the court, Chide Songtsan looked calm and eloquent. Looking at Taizong from a distance, he continued speaking without being humble or arrogant.
"I don't agree with what this minister said. I know that Buddhism has been preached in China for a long time, so I can only say how evil it is.
Buddhism has been established in many dynasties, promoting good and curbing evil, and helping the country. The principle has never been abandoned. The Buddha is also a saint. He is pure, benevolent and forgiving, and his fruit is righteous. The Buddha is empty. Emperor Wu of the Zhou Dynasty divided it into three religions: Zen Master Dahui praised Youyuan, and was supported by many people.
But it is obvious that the reincarnation of the Fifth Patriarch is the phenomenon of Bodhidharma. Since ancient times, it has been said that the three religions are supreme and cannot be destroyed or abolished. Now that your majesty has made a clear judgment, you must know that Buddhism is also the doctrine of saints. I hope that your majesty will make a conclusion and all ministers will make a decision.
"
Seeing the performance of Chide Songtsan, Li Chong couldn't help but praise him for his good performance. He didn't expect that there was such a person in Tubo.
First, he won the approval and listening attention of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty by respecting Confucianism, so that everyone would not be disgusted at the beginning, and reduced resistance. Then, in the face of the questioning of the ministers, he calmly responded to the questions and talked about them with confidence, using the history, culture and education of China.
To refute it shows that he is full of economic doctrine and has a calm and unhurried demeanor.
But Li Chong knew that Tride Songtsan's Buddhist theory would not achieve much success.
How could the civil and military officials who had been influenced by Confucianism easily believe in Buddhism? Today, even if Tride Songtsan said that the sky is full of flowers and the tongue is like a lotus flower, it is impossible to change everyone's academic beliefs.
All the ministers in the palace also praised Tride Songtsan for his talent, wisdom, and courage, but this was limited to him personally. They all despised Tride Songtsan's Buddhist teachings. This had nothing to do with moral character and talent, but an academic dispute.
For those who believe deeply in Confucianism and strive for life, how can the concept be changed so easily with just one word? For many ministers, the dispute over doctrine is worth their lives.
Two great Confucian scholars once argued for ten days and ten nights over the differences in Confucian classics, but they could not convince each other. This shows that great Confucian scholars are more important to academic disputes than life and death.
Once a certain theory is accepted, it is difficult to change it. If we want to seriously debate it today, I believe that even ten days and ten nights will not be enough.
Seeing the expressions on the faces of the ministers, Tride Songtsen obviously knew this, so he stopped and did not continue his discussion.
His expression changed, his aura surged, and his elegant temperament instantly became extremely powerful, revealing his strong martial arts skills. He bowed and saluted Taizong.
"Your Majesty, the Buddhism prevalent in Tubo is Tantra, unlike the Tiantai Sect in the Tang Dynasty and other sects that only use Zen concepts. Its Tantric practice uses mudra and mantras combined with physical training, which can help people break through the way of martial arts! Achieve infinite achievements.
Live martial arts.
I know that martial arts are popular in the Middle Kingdom, but nowadays, the way of martial arts in the world is respected by the Martial Saint and cannot be broken through. But Xiuwo Tantric can break through the way of the Martial Saint, achieve the realm of earth transformation, and catch up with the supreme martial arts."
As soon as Chide Songtsan finished speaking, all the civil and military officials in the court suddenly became condensed, and the eyes of the generals became even brighter.
Nowadays, the way of martial arts is declining because it is unable to break through the Martial Saint and achieve the realm of earth transformation. If this esoteric sect really has such a method, it will undoubtedly open up a new path for the way of martial arts. Martial arts will have flourished long ago.
Seeing the civil and military expressions in the hall, Li Chong couldn't help but secretly praise that Buddhism is really powerful. Academic beliefs are difficult to verify, so he found another way and used martial arts to induce people. You must know that although the Tang Dynasty used literature to recruit scholars and rule the world, it was true that it defended the territory and expanded its borders.
It belongs to military preparation.
Even the great Confucian scholars also paid attention to martial arts cultivation, and the Six Arts of Confucianism advocated martial arts cultivation.
Nowadays, under this huge temptation, there is no guarantee that some ministers will agree to the spread of Tantric Buddhism. Once you practice Tantric martial arts, you will inevitably be influenced by Tantric Buddhism. Under the subtle influence, the way of Buddhism will be spread in China.
If this method is real and feasible, some people who want to break through the bottleneck of martial arts will even have to practice Buddhism. In this way, Buddhism will be completely rooted in the Middle Earth, and even if they want to destroy Buddha, they will not be able to kill it.
At this point, Li Chong couldn't help but think that Taizong and some ministers had also thought about this. They frowned slightly, obviously thinking about this matter.
Seeing the expressions of the ministers, Chide Songtsan couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart. He continued.
"I am dull in qualifications and have practiced for less than ten years, but with the help of the tantric mantras and mantras, I have already achieved some achievements. I also heard that the prince of the Tang Dynasty has a profound martial arts. Today, I have proved to the Tang Dynasty that this method is feasible, and I am taking this opportunity to prove to the Tang Dynasty.
The princes competed and asked for advice on the martial arts of the Middle Kingdom, so I am bold enough to ask the princes of the Tang Dynasty for advice."
After saying this, Chide Songtsan stepped forward, a huge surge of confidence soared into the sky, his whole body's aura surged, and a stream of energy from his head shot up into the sky, like a wolf smoke.
"Jingqi Langyan, Martial Saint!"
Seeing the momentum of Chide Songtsan, his energy shot straight into the sky like wolf smoke, and the ministers in the palace looked shocked. He was actually in the middle stage of the Martial Saint. There was such a young Martial Saint. For a moment, everyone was shocked and worried.
At the same time, I also have some faith in the martial arts of Buddhist Tantric Buddhism.
Seeing the huge smoke, Taizong's expression also condensed slightly. Such a young martial saint, so powerful. He couldn't help but look at the princes in the hall.
At this time, the ministers in the palace also turned their attention to the princes in the palace. The small barbarian country challenged the princes. If they did not fight, it would weaken the majesty of the Tang Dynasty and damage the prestige of the Tang Dynasty.
It's just that the princes are very young, how can they achieve the realm of martial saints in their weak years? For a moment, everyone was worried.
At this time, all the princes in the palace were also anxious and felt a little anxious for a moment.
When he saw the eyes of the ministers, he became even more embarrassed.
How can one of the princes become a Martial Saint at such a young age, let alone one who is in the middle stage of a Martial Saint with so much vigor and energy.
If you lose the battle, you will lose the majesty of the Tang royal family. Once you lose face in front of the world's scholars, it also means that you lose the qualification to compete for the throne. How can the princes not be frightened and worried for a while.
Li Chong looked at Chide Songtsan and smiled slightly. Chide Songtsan could achieve such martial arts achievements even if he should benefit from some great powers of Buddhism. No matter how powerful the tantric mantras and incantations are, he would not be able to become a martial saint so quickly.
I became a Martial Saint because of a series of adventures, even in life and death. These many adventures and opportunities are only in the middle stage of the Martial Saint, but my martial arts combat power is extremely powerful.
Therefore, I don’t have so much admiration and fear for Tride Song.
Li Chong also had a clear view of the expressions of the princes. The most important thing in martial arts is spiritual will. If you are timid before fighting, you are already defeated. It seems that it is for the majesty of the Tang Dynasty and to gain the approval of the ministers of the dynasty faster.
, only oneself can face it.
Li Chong, who had decided to fight, suddenly caught a glimpse of the prince's expression, and he couldn't help being shocked. Although the prince Li Chengqian's expression remained motionless, his whole body's aura was slowly rising. A monstrous power shot straight into the sky, and a shocking wave surged above his head.
The energy surged up like a wolf smoke. Its power was not even inferior to that of Chide Songtsan, and it seemed to be in a state of rivalry with it.
The eyes he looked at Chide Songtsan were filled with fighting spirit. He stepped forward suddenly and shouted coldly.
"Then I will teach you the profound martial arts of the Tubo Prince!"
