The other envoys from various sects had finally understood the meaning behind Zhu Su's words.
To put it bluntly, according to the meaning of these Ming people, they came here to be ancestors.
If you don't treat them as your ancestors, you can't even hope to get their support!
"King Zhou of the Ming Dynasty." The Tianfang Sect messenger, who had just been beaten with a cane and whose buttocks were still dark red, glared at Zhu Su with his teeth bared. "Do you really want to make enemies of believers of all our denominations?"
Tianfang Sect is the most powerful religion here, and is naturally the most disgusted and resistant to Zhu Su's intentions.
"Of course I want to be friends with you." Zhu Su said. "However, my dignity as a Ming Dynasty cannot be insulted. If any sect dares to force us to convert, we will naturally not tolerate it."
"So what if we are enemies? Even if we are all killed, my king's father will send thousands, tens of thousands, tens of millions of people to avenge my king. Since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the overthrow of the Yuan and the annihilation of the Japanese have been sufficient. It expresses the attitude of our enlightened people. Anyone who dares to offend my great power will be punished no matter how far away!"
Zhu Su's words were so convincing that even though the envoy of Tianfang Sect believed that he was the most powerful, his momentum could not help but shrink. The Ming Dynasty is like the sun in the sky, even the body poison can be heard. No one dares to boast that he can cope with the revenge of the Ming Emperor. The prince of the Ming Dynasty does have such confidence.
What's more, this Ming army is too strong. Eight thousand people destroyed 50,000 Sultan's army and captured nearly 40,000 people... Even if Tianfang Jiaoji can drive them away from the city of Delhi with all its strength, I'm afraid it will still have to be done. A heavy price to pay.
They are religions, and their most direct opponents should be other sects, rather than fighting head-on wars with these secular armies.
The Tianfang Sect envoy was still weighing the matter, but over there, Zendaya had already made up his mind. Buddhism is gradually declining, and today it is no longer possible to retreat. In this case, it is better to give it a try, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope.
Zendaya immediately said: "Amitabha. Your Highness, in this case, we in Buddhism are willing to respect Han people as 'Sumi', which means the center of the world and the fifth largest caste after the four major castes."
"The 'Xumi' caste is not subject to any restrictions and is more noble than any other caste, in order to demonstrate the dignity of the heaven..."
Zhu Su raised his eyebrows, finally someone was on the right path. "It's not just the Han people. China has a vast land and more than one ethnic group. This 'Xumi' caste should not refer exclusively to the Han people."
"Yes, yes, the little monk's thinking was wrong." Zendaya immediately bowed and apologized, and corrected his mistake when he realized his mistake: "Anyone who comes from the heavenly kingdom, I am willing to respect him as 'Sumi' in Buddhism, and Will His Highness be satisfied with incorporating it into the doctrine?"
"Master Zendaya is really wise, so this is very appropriate. After writing this article into the teachings, I will allow Buddhism to build temples and preach in Delhi." Zhu Su said with a smile. The Ming Dynasty is now pursuing a pioneering and enterprising strategy, and promoting national integration is naturally one of the paths it must take in the future. As long as you come from the Ming Dynasty, you can become the "Sumi" uncle in this poisonous place, which is a good benefit for all ethnic groups after they surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.
As for the poisoned people... The people here have been enslaved for many years. Their numbness and servility cannot be eliminated overnight... Take your time.
It is much better to respect the knowledgeable Chinese as their masters than to be slaves to the Persians, Huns, Afghans, and British.
Zendaya's face was filled with joy. Although he had paid a lot of effort, he finally gained the support of His Highness the Ming Dynasty. The land of Delhi is the center of the northern part of Shendu. With the support of His Highness, the rise of Buddhism is inevitable.
Seeing that Buddhism had taken away the benefits of this, the envoy of the Brahman religion suddenly panicked. Buddhism and Brahmanism are both ancient religions that are poisonous. Under the suppression of the external Tianfang sect, the two brothers were no more miserable than the second brother. , all the same sewer stuff.
As the saying goes, you are not afraid of your brothers eating cornstarch, but you are afraid of your brothers walking in the clouds. Now that Buddhism is on the rise, how can Brahmanism lag behind? The red-robed envoy immediately said: "We, the Brahmans, are also willing to respect the Chinese people as Sumeru, and I sincerely ask the great Ming Dynasty, His Highness the King of Zhou, to also allow us, the Brahmans, to build a temple in Delhi!"
"Okay, okay, okay, very good, very good, I agree." After listening to the translation, Zhu Su just waved his hand lightly and agreed to the Brahmin envoy's request.
Zendaya was stunned, how could he still be like this? Shouldn’t we only respect their Buddhism? When envoys from other minor religions saw that the prince of the Ming Dynasty actually allowed multiple sects to settle in Delhi, they immediately reacted and began to rush to express their loyalty to Zhu Su. Yes, the previous Delhi regimes were because the ruler wanted to rely on the power of a certain religion and help each other with a certain religion. Naturally, he had to convert to a certain religion and then reject other sects.
However, these enlightened people have no intention of converting to a certain sect. Everyone in Delhi can have a piece of the pie... Although the portion will naturally be smaller, it is better than nothing. Moreover, in the past, the prosperous land of Delhi was always occupied by the Tianfang Sect. Now, no matter what, the decline of the Tianfang Sect after losing Delhi is already certain. In this case, how long will it take if their religious power is not divided up earlier?
Suddenly, seven or eight religions voluntarily worshiped China as "Xumi" in exchange for the right to build temples and preach in Delhi, and Zhu Su agreed one by one.
Your religious disputes have nothing to do with us. What's more, the more chaotic this poisonous place is caused by you, the more capable Ming Dynasty will be at finding fish in this pool of muddy water.
Zendaya also thought of this level, but he could only sigh. His Royal Highness, King Zhou of the Ming Dynasty, was so shrewd that there was absolutely no chance that they would only support one sect of Buddhism. Fortunately, no matter what, among the many sects, Buddhism still has the closest relationship with China. Now it is time for the Shendu sects to reshuffle their cards. With this relationship, their Buddhism is already one level ahead.
After everything has settled, except for a few sects such as Tianfang Sect and Zoroastrianism that were unwilling to submit, almost all other religions have obtained the right to build temples in Delhi. These sects sent believers to help suppress it. Even the Tianfang Sect, which had been preaching here for hundreds of years during the Delhi Sultanate, was facing a powerful enemy at this time and felt that Delhi was really going to break away from the control of the Tianfang Sect.
"Jamila, what should we do?" When leaving the city of Delhi, one of the Tianfang Sect envoys reluctantly glanced at the Delhi city wall behind him, then turned to ask the envoy who had been spanked. “Do we really want to abandon Delhi, the land where we have been preaching for hundreds of years?”
"No." The messenger named Jamila was injured in the hip and could only "half-stand" on the horse with his knees bent in a funny posture, but his eyes were burning with raging resentment and humiliation.
"The arrogant Akito want to take away the land of the True Ancestor, they are just wishful thinking!"
"There are still several sects such as the Zoroastrian Cult that have not obeyed the Ming people. Let's go find them... We still have many devout believers who are loyal to the true ancestor in the city. As long as we unite, we will definitely kill the arrogant King Zhou!"
