Huiyuan kept nodding his head and said: "Master Luo Shi really has a compassionate heart, which moved and admired the poor monk. When you went to Nanyan, firstly, you wanted Nanyan to release the captive people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and secondly, for
Asking Liu Yu to retreat will also save the people of Nanyan from the suffering of swordsmen, right?"
Kumarajiva nodded: "Yes, Nanyan was also a vassal state of our Great Qin at that time. As the suzerain state, it has the obligation to protect its vassals. Otherwise, it will not be established without trust, and other vassal states will leave one after another.
, this was something the Emperor of Qin could not allow, so Qin Emperor Yao Xing ordered me to go as an envoy to Nan Yan. After all, it was Nan Yan who first sent troops to plunder thousands of people in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. They were at fault, so as long as the Lord of Yan, Murong Chao, is willing to release them,
people, and make mutually acceptable compensation to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. If the two sides stop fighting and make peace, it will be a blessing to the people of the world. I went to Nanyan to promote peace."
"It's just that when I went, it was already too late. Liu Yu defeated the Yan army in Linqu, and Murong Chao was defeated and returned to Guanggu City. When the front line was defeated, the people in Guanggu City were panicked, and the prisoners captured by the Eastern Jin Dynasty also took advantage of the opportunity.
Wanting to escape, this gave Murong Chao and the black robes of the Tiandao Alliance, that is, Murong Chui, the big demon who actually controlled Nan Yan, an excuse to kill the people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In the end, more than two thousand people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were all killed by the Yan army.
Under the butcher's knife, it was really horrific."
Huiyuan loudly announced the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, sin, sin. This Murong Chui actually did such inhumane things. His sins are no less than Shi Hu's back then. In this way, Liu Yu eliminated him, which is also
It is a just act to uphold justice for heaven. Master Luo Shi should not stop it."
Kumarajiva shook his head and said: "Although the main culprit of Murong Chui's massacre of the city was Murong Chui, Liu Yu also had an unshirkable responsibility. If he hadn't been unyielding after the victory, he would have pursued and killed the Yan army.
Until the gate of Guanggu City, if Sima Guofan of his former army hadn't sent people into the city in an attempt to target these Eastern Jin people, Murong Chui would not have killed him. Finally, Liu Yu's forwards saw Murong Chui and Murong Chao returning to the city.
, did not dare to fight anymore, abandoned the people and retreated, resulting in no one to help these people after they left the city, which led to such an end. Liu Yu also has an unshirkable responsibility for this matter. "
Huiyuan frowned: "I see, this is the first time I have heard of the twists and turns in the process. In this way, this is a fight between Liu Yu and Murong Chui, using the people as an excuse, Liu Yu's purpose of leaving the army
, not to save the people, but to have a reason to go to war. Otherwise, he should have sent an envoy after Linqu won the battle to ask Nanyan to release the people, instead of following the pursuit, let alone using these captured people as internal agents.
The gates of Guanggu have been opened."
Kumarajiva nodded: "That's right. As the suzerain state of Nan Yan, our Great Qin initially felt that Nan Yan was at fault for taking people captive first, so we did not send out troops to support Nan Yan, causing Nan Yan to lose everything.
The land south of Daxian Mountain also failed in the decisive battle at Linqu. If our Qin army was there for reinforcements, how could Liu Yu win these battles and reach Guanggu?"
"Our Qin Dynasty even sent several groups of envoys to persuade Nan Yan to let go of the captive people and apologize to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. But Murong Chui said that Liu Jingxuan, Sima Xiuzhi, Gao Yazhi and others were ungrateful and fled to Nan Yan for shelter.
In addition, he actually thought about a coup to usurp power, plot a rebellion and kill Emperor Murongde. After the failure, he fled to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The Eastern Jin Dynasty refused to surrender, which was an enemy of Nanyan. He sent troops to the north of the Yangtze River and captured the people as revenge for this matter.
, if they want them to let go of the people, they have to exchange Liu Jingxuan, Sima Xiuzhi and their party members. This makes sense, and Murong Chui also said that because Da Qin wanted to leave Nan Yan's royal band, Nan Yan is now rude.
To play music, we need to retrain a royal band. The Jin people are proficient in music. After capturing these people, we can select a group of them and train them as musicians. We can also consider releasing these Jin people. I, the Qin Dynasty, do not understand this matter.
After all, we were the ones who asked Nanyan to hand over the royal orchestra, so it’s only natural that they want to rebuild one.”
Huiyuan sighed: "I see. So, the Later Qin wanted to wait for the Jin and Yan countries to fight a war, and one side suffered a loss and made concessions before mediating?"
Kumarajiva nodded: "Exactly, the Lord of Qin, Yao Xing, is a benevolent king who is devoted to Buddha. Over the years, under my persuasion, he has gradually given up on weapons and no longer takes the initiative to go to war with the surrounding areas.
Eliminating the Qiang people's barbaric habits of being warlike and loving to kill is what we, Buddhist disciples, have achieved through enlightenment. In time, if the world is full of Buddhist temples and everyone is ashamed of killing, wouldn't the world be peaceful? So, wouldn't the world be peaceful?
Yao Xing did not send troops to rescue Nanyan as soon as he was attacked as he had done before, but wanted to reconcile the conflicts between the two sides. After all, even to Liu Yu of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, our Daqin took the initiative to give him the land of the twelve counties of Nanyang.
To show goodwill, but I didn’t expect that such goodwill and concession did not bring peace, but instead made Liu Yu’s ambition greatly increased, thinking that he was really invincible, and this was how the battle against Yan began.”
Huiyuan sighed and said: "I see. In this way, Liu Yu just wants an excuse to start a war, and he doesn't really care about the lives of these two thousand people."
Kumarajiva sneered and said: "That's right. When Liu Yu Jianyi seized power at Jingkou and expelled Huan Xuan, the Jin Kingdom was at its most empty. At that time, Murong De, the leader of Yan, had raised an army of 400,000 and personally led his troops southward, hoping to
To destroy Jin, Liu Yu relied on Murong Lan's intercession and led his army northward alone. At Muling Pass at Daxian Pass, he swore a contract with Murong De and promised not to invade each other. If Murong De did not make peace that time, he would directly
Going south, at least the land north of the Yangtze River in the Jin Kingdom will no longer belong to them."
"So, we thought that since Liu Yu had Murong Lan as his married wife, and because of the precedent of Murong De letting him go last time, this action would only go as far as it goes. In fact, I have never thought that Liu Yu was
It's really for the people, but because he keeps saying that he wants to fight for the people of the world and protect every Jin citizen. Now he has taken more than 2,000 people captive to Nanyan. In order to fulfill his promise, he has to fight this battle.
After getting some advantages, he would negotiate peace with the Yan State. But what we didn’t expect was that he would even disregard his wife’s life, just to destroy the entire Nan Yan!”
Huiyuan proclaimed the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, I finally understand now that Liu Yu is just like those warlords and tyrants who conquer the world, just for their own achievements, regardless of the common people. The so-called common people are just because he wants to conquer all directions.
It's just an excuse. Then the Qin army seems to be the righteous army, Master Luo Shi, why didn't you force Liu Yu to retreat when you went to see him?" (End of Chapter)
