Lu Xuan smiled and asked: "Surela, have the problems within Zoroastrianism been solved?"
Surela looked respectful and pious, and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the problem of Mazda and others splitting Zoroastrianism has been solved. Thanks to Your Majesty's arrangements, everything can be solved satisfactorily. Without His Majesty's arrangements, I don’t even know what to do.”
Lu Xuan nodded and said: "As long as it is solved, I have only one request for Zoroastrianism."
Suleira said: "Your Majesty, please speak."
Lu Xuan ordered: "I hope that Zoroastrianism will be the religion of the Ming Dynasty, be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and serve the Ming Dynasty. Next, as the Pope of Zoroastrianism, you must adjust Zoroastrianism from these aspects and guide the people."
Suleila said: "I obey the order."
Lu Xuan asked: "How do you plan to get it?"
Surela was stunned.
The emperor's thoughts jumped too fast and he couldn't keep up. He had just said that Zoroastrianism was loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and he had just said one sentence. He had not made any preparations when the emperor asked.
He didn't even know how to answer.
No idea at all.
Surela glanced at Lu Xuan, his mind was spinning rapidly, and he didn't dare not answer. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and said, "Your Majesty, I have already thought of the direction to start."
Lu Xuan looked approvingly and asked, "Where to start?"
Suleila is Lu Xuan's tool.
This person is like a sponge and can be squeezed continuously. If you squeeze, there will always be something. If Surela is not squeezed, then Surela, the Pope of Zoroastrianism, may have other ideas.
Surela replied: "Reporting to your Majesty, the direction I am starting with is language and writing. I will arrange for people to widely publicize the language of the Ming Dynasty. It is the language that can best contact the gods and communicate with the gods better."
"Because I have mastered the official language of the Ming Dynasty, it is easier to communicate with the gods. Because I have mastered the written language of the Ming Dynasty, I can also write articles to worship the God of Fire and all the gods of Zoroastrianism."
"This is my plan."
"Once the Ming Dynasty's writing and language are completely recognized, then Anxi will be completely dissipated."
Surela secretly thought that she was smart.
So astute.
He has thought of all these methods.
Lu Xuan nodded slightly and said: "Your entry point is good, but it is not enough. If it is just like this, I am not satisfied."
Surella's cheeks twitched.
The emperor is too difficult to live with.
He finally got an idea and thought of a way, and thought he could deal with Lu Xuan. After all, the implementation of Ming Dynasty's language and writing did not happen overnight. Unexpectedly, Lu Xuan did not agree with it at all.
Surella was even more helpless against the emperor. He glanced at Lu Xuan and saw that the emperor was staring at him, as if he had murderous intent. Fine beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead, and he was frightened by the emperor.
Surela swallowed her saliva, secretly scolded the emperor for being unkind, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, I have no idea for a while, please let me think about it again."
"That's right!"
Lu Xuan nodded.
Surela took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and quickly thought of a response strategy. The more eager he is, the more he has no ideas. After all, he has always been the Pope of Zoroastrianism and has never had any experience in this area.
After a while, Surela's eyes suddenly lit up, and she thought of another thing, and said: "Your Majesty, I also thought of one more thing, and it is also an entry point that must be arranged."
Lu Xuan nodded and said, "Come and listen."
Surela quickly said: "The texts of Zoroastrian teachings and classic books were immediately changed and arranged for translation into Ming Dynasty script. From then on, the inheritance of Zoroastrian teachings will be implemented in Ming Dynasty script."
"When I thought of this, I also thought of one thing. The local Zoroastrianism also has many religious books. These are written in Parthian script. They must be taken back and destroyed, and then written in Ming Dynasty script and distributed."
"And one more thing."
Surella's eyes were bright and she said: "I also thought of the books of the Parthian Kingdom. All books collected by the Parthian Kingdom in all places should be taken back and destroyed. Only in this way can the inheritance and traces of the Parthian writing be completely annihilated."
"good!"
Lu Xuan looked approvingly.
Surela is indeed a qualified tool man.
The so-called use of Ming Dynasty characters and languages to better communicate with Zoroastrian gods is difficult to implement, and there is no quantitative assessment standard. However, it can be arranged to completely burn all Parthian books and to have all Zoroastrian classics written in Ming script.
And it’s easy to assess.
It would be good for Surela, the Zoroastrian pope, to be responsible for such matters.
He was familiar with the situation in Parthia.
If it were Lu Xuan's people, everything would be difficult, or at least the pressure would be greater. Although Surela is responsible, she will also encounter a lot of pressure. But Surella is a Parthian, so she can handle stress more easily.
Surela breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will make arrangements immediately."
Lu Xuan nodded and said: "Surela, the Pope of Zoroastrianism looks good, but in fact in the Ming Dynasty, it is just a religion and has no meaning. After this time, I will set up a separate organization to manage religions. It manages not only Zoroastrianism, but also all religions in Parthia. When the time comes, you will be the first person in charge."
"I obey!"
Surela's eyes suddenly became happy, and her expression became even more excited.
According to Lu Xuan's approach, although Zoroastrianism will also be influential in the future, its power will definitely be greatly weakened. However, he became the first head of a religious institution, which was a further step into power.
This is his opportunity to make a contribution.
Surella even took the initiative to express his position: "Please rest assured, His Majesty the Emperor, I will definitely go all out and carry out the promotion of the Ming text and language and the burning of Parthian books."
Lu Xuan looked approvingly and said: "Go and make arrangements. When you need troops, go directly to Guan Yu and ask him to mobilize troops to assist. In a word, if you encounter anyone who blocks your way, you will kill without mercy."
"As you command!"
Surella answered again.
Lu Xuan waved his hand, and Surela turned around and left.
After he walked out of the palace, he looked back at the deep palace. He could no longer see Lu Xuan. However, after many battles with Lu Xuan, he was completely in awe of Lu Xuan and no longer had any luck.
When the emperor did things, he squeezed him step by step and calculated against him step by step. He had just solved the Parthian nobles, and the people within Zoroastrianism, and completely used him to control Zoroastrianism. Now he is responsible for burning books and annihilating the language and writing of Zoroastrianism.
All this is under the control of the emperor.
He could only follow the emperor's arrangements. Fortunately, the emperor would not treat him badly and would let him serve as an official.
It's a bit of comfort.
Surela paused for a while, then left without further delay, preparing to arrange the next thing.
