Change the doctrine! As soon as Zhu Su said this, the faces of the envoys from many sects immediately turned ugly.
"His Royal Highness King Zhou of the Ming Dynasty." The envoy of the Zoroastrian Cult immediately turned dark. He stood up from the ground, the curly beard on his face trembling slightly with displeasure.
"Our teachings are the will of the gods and sages left to us believers, and there is absolutely no possibility of change."
"His Royal Highness the King of Zhou asked us to change our doctrine, aren't we afraid of blaspheming the gods?"
Immediately, several sect envoys stood up and rebuked Zhu Su for his arrogance. Zhu Su was unmoved. He still stood at the top and looked at them calmly, ignoring what these people said.
It was indeed a deaf ear. He didn't understand these vicious words, and Huang Guan simply didn't bother to translate the scoldings of these people. On the contrary, these people were left red-faced and thick-necked with anger, looking incompetent and furious.
The reason why Zhu Su remained unmoved was because he knew that the envoys of these sects were at least the priests of one sect, and the higher the status in a sect, the less they believed in God. These rigid and stubborn elements must be in the minority.
Besides, throughout the ages, there have been very few sects that have tampered with their doctrines for temporary gain? When profit comes, even God has to sell indulgences to the mortal world, and now it is Zhu Su who holds the word "profit".
If you go with it, you will gain, if you go against it, it will be harmful. Don’t be afraid that no one will waver.
Sure enough, after just a little while, the Buddhist monk Zendaya could no longer hold his breath. I thought that with the connection between Buddhism and China, they would be sure of getting the support of the Ming army this time. Unexpectedly, His Highness the King of Zhou was so ignorant that he had no intention of openly supporting Buddhism.
This huge gap, coupled with the severe situation of Buddhism in the land of body poisoning, made him the least confident person present. The skinny monk asked: "I wonder which part of the teachings Your Highness thinks is inappropriate? Can you see me?"
Zhu Su was waiting for someone to ask and take the initiative. Seeing Chantaya speak, he continued: "I heard that in the land of body poison, there is a 'caste' system that you and other sects jointly maintain."
"Monks and priests are Brahmins; nobles and generals are Kshatriyas; businessmen are Vaishyas; and common people are Sudras. These four major castes cannot change from life to life."
"I would like to know, since we come from the Ming Dynasty, who should we belong to among the four major castes?"
When Zhu Su said these words, the envoys from various sects suddenly fell silent, and all of them looked strange.
The caste system is a system that these sects tacitly maintain, and it is also a basic system that those in power in the poisonous areas rely on to rule. This system is beneficial to both sect leaders and those in power. Therefore, no matter who the conqueror of this land is, they will generally take the initiative to maintain this system that has been passed down for thousands of years.
It is precisely because of this system that caste cannot be changed from generation to generation. The long-standing tradition has also caused the people in the poisonous areas to lose their fighting spirit and become decadent and lazy. After all, the caste you are born into can determine the upper limit of your life, so why bother working hard?
It's just like that anyway, so it's better to leave it in ruins.
This system has also indirectly led to the prosperity of religion in Shendu areas: there is no hope in this life, so one can only hope to be reincarnated into a higher caste in the next life. If you want to place your hope in the next life, you must make offerings to gods and incense...
Because of such a system, the Shendu area has formed a closed loop that is benign to the sect but malignant to the people: the people have been insensitive for generations and do not know what resistance is; but the religion has prospered to the point that it can be called pathological. Degree.
Nachantaya thought for a while, a light flashed in his eyes, and then he quickly lowered his head, hiding the expression on his face and making a sign of submission. He clasped his hands and said, "You all come from the Ming Dynasty and are noble people. Naturally, you should be counted as Brahmins."
His words may seem reasonable on the surface, but they actually hide a trap: the so-called Brahmin is a caste with a religious nature. If these enlightened people want to become Brahmins, they naturally need to convert to a certain sect.
But as long as you convert to a sect, you will naturally be subject to the shackles of doctrine and so on. This land of Delhi is still a theocracy controlled by religion. For example, in the previous Delhi Sultanate, the actual rulers were the Muslims of the Tianfang Sect. Even the sultan, the leader of the country, was sometimes controlled by the teachings of the Tianfang Sect.
Moreover, His Royal Highness the King of Zhou is also a nobleman of the Ming Dynasty. If he can be allowed to claim to be a Brahmin, then perhaps he can use his influence to preach in China. The land of China is the kingdom of heaven. If we can expand our influence there and make it a religious state, worshiped by wealthy Chinese people... then wouldn't it be far better than being in this poisonous land? , manage these lazy, stupid and poisonous people?
When Zhu Su heard this, he snorted lightly to show his disdain. Over there, Huang Guan and other supervisors had their eyes widened with anger, and they came out and cursed: "How brave! We Chinese people respect the ancestors of heaven and earth, worship the heaven and earth of our ancestors, and believe in the moral principles of heaven. We only know how to kneel down and worship the Lord of Heaven and Earth. . Master Zendaya, you classified us as Brahmins... Do you mean that you want us all to become monks and become followers of Buddhism without regard to our sages and ancestors?"
After Huang Guan learned the body poison language, he became very concerned about the customs, customs and political situation of the body poison area. The other supervisors also knew that being able to come here from afar was a very rare experience in life. If he could write a travel journal after he returned, He was sure that his name would go down in history, so he often traveled around, so how could anyone not know the details of this caste system? Now that they saw Zendaya dare to use this system to plot against them, they were filled with righteous indignation and came out to refute them one after another.
Zendaya originally thought that these people from the Ming Dynasty who came from afar would not know the secrets, but now they were exposed on the spot, and his bald head was already covered with cold sweat. He wanted to make amends, but he really didn't know which caste these wise people from China should be classified into.
Kshatriya? These Ming dynasty masters relied on warfare and could indeed be regarded as military aristocrats. But the Kshatriyas are controlled and commanded by the Brahmins of various sects. How can these people be willing to submit to many sects?
Not counting them among castes? But according to the rules of body poisoning, those who are not in the caste are lowly untouchables. What if these wise people also know this meaning, will they still be alive?
Zhu Su seemed to have caught a glimpse of their entanglement. He waved his hands to Huang Guan and other supervisors. The supervisors understood and the voices of accusation gradually died down. Zhu Su said: "The caste system is a system respected by all your sects."
"You want us Chinese people to support your Shendu sect? Then, among your so-called castes, do we, Chinese people, have a place? However, our Ming Dynasty originated from China, and in our land of China, the most noble one is He is the Son of Heaven! The Son of Heaven represents the herdsmen of Heaven, and the people of China are the subjects of the Son of Heaven. There is absolutely no reason to succumb to the governance of sects such as yours."
"I have no intention of embarrassing you. As long as your definition of us is in line with my wishes and can be written into the doctrine to inform you and other believers, I, the Ming Dynasty, will naturally be willing to support your mission. As for how to define it, you can think about it yourself. "
"..."
Zendaya was silent. They are not satisfied with the Brahmans, and want to put the Ming people into castes... Doesn't this mean that we are going to create a caste above all other castes for you, the Ming people?
If this is true, from now on, the people of Ming Dynasty will be the legitimate masters of all poisonous people, and they will naturally be worshiped by all poisonous people...
This... this is a bit too much!
