"Pfft——"
"Ahem!! Are you kidding?" The Jade Emperor coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment.
The genuine tea just now is the fairy tea from the Queen Mother.
The spirit was extremely relaxed, admiring the graceful dancing of the immortals in the hall below, and at the same time casually listening to the clairvoyant and shunfeng ears observing the situation of the journey to the west.
When the clairvoyants told the Jade Emperor that Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty in the lower world, planned to send 500,000 troops to kill all the way...ahem! ! Go to the West to learn the scriptures in person.
The Jade Emperor reacted so violently when he heard the news, just because he knew the Tang Emperor Li Shimin.
All the achievements and thoughts of Tang Emperor Li Shimin were not worth mentioning here, but he had to admit that at the mortal level, he had achieved the ultimate.
Therefore, haggard
In the eyes of the Jade Emperor, Li Shimin was definitely a rational and intelligent emperor.
It is impossible for a rational and intelligent emperor to issue such an outrageous order.
Fighting from the Tang Dynasty in the East to Lingshan Mountain in the West was an extremely unreliable decision.
The battle front is hundreds of thousands of miles deep, which is simply a joke.
If we send out 500,000 troops, there will definitely be more than 500,000 going to the battlefield. Countless corvees will be needed to transport food, grass and baggage. All these will require the use of logistics personnel that are at least three times the number of troops.
Only in this way can a war be guaranteed.
Half a million troops, plus three times the number of troops, is 1.5 million. A total of two million people does not seem to be much, after all, it will easily exceed 100 million in later generations. haggard
But at this time, the Tang Dynasty only had more than three million households.
In a country with more than three million households, if more than 200 strong men are dedicated to fighting, it can be said that the country is basically ruined.
"Is Li Shimin crazy?" asked the Jade Emperor.
At first, the Jade Emperor didn't believe it, but after thinking about it, the clairvoyant and the shunfenger didn't have the guts to lie to him.
"yes!
Not to mention whether Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty could win this battle, let's just say that the land he conquered was completely useless and could not be effectively managed at all. It would be a waste of time to conquer it. "
The Queen Mother, who was almost sprayed with tea by the Jade Emperor, also spoke. haggard
The territory of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, plus the total area of all the land all the way to Tianzhu, would be extremely terrifying.
How much it can't be intuitively felt, just think about how much Tang Sanzang spent traveling from Chang'an to Daleiyin Temple.
14 years!
Moreover, Tang Sanzang's 14 years were not wasted.
He is riding a white dragon horse that will never die from hunger, exhaustion, or illness or aging.
This kind of transportation has been around for 14 years.
It is conceivable that once a war breaks out on the border, it will take 14 years to send orders and reports. haggard
In fourteen years, the girl is enough to be with the young woman, and the young woman becomes a hot mother...
"Hey! Actually, it's not surprising even if you think about it." The Jade Emperor sighed.
"Isn't it strange?" the Queen Mother asked doubtfully.
There are obvious differences between Li Shimin's acting style and Wang Ming's formal style, especially since Wang Ming gave up treatment and stopped acting.
If it weren't for Wang Ming's aura of human king that could not be faked, they would never think that it was Li Shimin sitting on the throne at this time.
"Before the calamity of Journey to the West came, the secret of heaven had not been hidden. We all calculated that Li Shimin's character and style were definitely not like this. This order is too stupid."
The Jade Emperor smiled and said: "Liang Jie! Liang Jie! If there is no change, then it is not called Liang Jie. The existence of Liang Jie is something derived from the way of heaven in order to bring about new changes in the solidified world."
Li Shimin is indeed a rare benevolent king who works hard to govern.
But he was taken to the eighteen levels of hell by Buddhism and saw all kinds of torture in which he could neither survive nor die. His three views, beliefs, and ideas were probably almost destroyed at that time.
Especially the judges in the underworld said that he had sinned so much that he would go to hell to suffer the torture after his death.
How would you say you would be from his perspective? "
After hearing this, the Queen Mother thought for a moment and said, "Of course she is seeking immortality."
The Jade Emperor nodded and said: "It is true that he was seeking immortality. However, it was not that Tang Emperor Li Shimin did not seek immortality at the beginning. He wanted to eliminate sins and did not want to go to hell after death and suffer the torture. But later, Buddhism asked Jinghe Dragon King to This attack completely ignited the ambition in his heart.
The emperor is the most greedy and domineering existence. haggard
Unfortunately, it was his knowledge and ignorance that made his final result come to nothing. "
The Queen Mother thought for a moment and instantly understood what it meant.
He couldn't help but sneered: "Yes! He actually really believes in the so-called Mahayana Buddhism of Buddhism, which can transcend the dead and ascend to heaven, can save people from suffering and escape suffering, can cultivate the body of infinite life, and can do things without coming and going."
The Jade Emperor also mocked: "They did not lie. The souls that have been saved can enter the Buddhist kingdom in their hands. In the Buddhist kingdom, they can naturally get rid of suffering, gain infinite life, and have no coming and going."
The Queen Mother rolled her eyes at the Jade Emperor, and then said: "Those who enter the Buddhist Kingdom in the Palm are stupid when chanting sutras. They are just captive believers after entering. What is the meaning of that kind of detachment? It is better to enter reincarnation. At least there is a chance to escape from reincarnation. .”
The Jade Emperor shook his head and said: "It seems that Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty has given up his obsession with the empire, and perhaps even his future generations. He is planning to make a desperate move and risk all his efforts to gain nine lives of immortality for himself. A future without falling into the hell of reincarnation!"
"Pa!" The Queen Mother dropped a white stone, completing the siege of the black dragon on the chessboard. haggard
"It's a pity that Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty took the wrong direction from the beginning. When he took the direction, the farther he went and the more diligent he was, the more wrong he was. After all, he was just an ignorant mortal, or he didn't see himself clearly at all. The fate of being a chess piece." The Queen Mother said slowly in a calm tone.
"Tang Emperor Li Shimin has obviously deviated from the original direction on the trajectory of his destiny. Do we need to correct it?"
The Jade Emperor frowned and glanced at the eaten chess pieces.
"The chess piece that stands out is always the most dangerous chess piece."
After saying this, a black stone was placed next to the Queen Mother and the white stone fell down. The black stones around the white stone became a mass, and the white stone was surrounded and killed.
"Let him go! Buddhism will handle it, there is no need for us to dirty our hands.
Tang Emperor Li Shimin's luck would be consumed. As long as he didn't die in the next ten years, everything else didn't matter. haggard
Sending troops to the Daleiyin Temple in Lingshan Mountain in the West is a truly ridiculous act.
There are more than ten countries along the way, and he will understand how stupid he is when he conquers two or three countries at most.
No matter how Li Shimin struggles, there will only be one result.
The protagonists of Heaven and Earth are better at their strengths and weaknesses. When they are powerful, they will only be like the dragon and phoenix tribes and the two lich tribes. "
