Chapter 517 (2/2)
Only when the matter of protecting the Tubo capital is firmly established can it be put on the court, formulated by the central government, approved by the lower provinces, and then approved by his majesty and announced to the world.
This can not only ensure that the Royal prestige will not be damaged, but also highlight the national prestige of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, before the real beginning, these things will not become a real national event to discuss.Li Hong had to look at Lin Shiling with a new look. This guy was indeed a talented man. He was a rare and ruthless and loyal official. Compared with Jinghui's aboveboard and upright conduct, he was just like two sides of the moon.
In the same way, because of their completely different styles and ways of doing things, they have become the most complementary pair of partners. Even compared with Pei Xingjian and mazai, who are known as ”Pei Ma”, they are no less inferior.
All the details were well done, but Lin Shiling's ruthlessness was highlighted in his treatment of Wencheng. Although it was more effective than Jinghui's, it was too insidious.
Li Hong had to shake his head and sigh: ”Lin Shiling, you still need to deal with Princess Wencheng again. Unlike the people of Tang Dynasty, the Tibetan people are a group prone to collapse of their faith. They are firm, clean and can not be blasphemed. I have been tolerating Princess Wencheng for the past two years. Do you think it's my will? No matter what, Princess Wencheng can't have an accident! Princess Yiyang and her husband-in-law will also go to Tubo together. They can only be replaced and can not be overthrown! Because it's impossible. ”
Lin Shiling was stunned. He was still a little unconvinced by the prince's cautious remarks. In the Tang Dynasty, monks, Taoists and nuns did not see or deal with each other. The belief of these people was entirely based on their ignorance and fear of the future.
Their devout prayer and worship of Buddha are completely based on the lack of material reality, which is absolutely different from their ideological realm and spiritual washing!
In Lin Shiling's opinion, the collapse of a person's belief and the collapse of a group's belief are completely the product of destroying their faith and establishing a new spirit. When their faith collapses, the common people will only seek helpless repentance and reflection. How can it be possible, as the crown prince said, to cause riots among them and become infuriated by the blasphemy of their beliefs, so as to maintain their faith Raise your arms and attack them?
This is impossible. Before the Tang Dynasty, the rise and fall of every dynasty, from various schools of thought to today's struggle between Buddhism and Taoism, each belief originally had many supporters, but as the belief was banned by the power holders, it disappeared, and no group of people were angry to save themselves for the collapse of belief.
Therefore, he did not believe that the collapse of a Princess Wencheng could cause riots and rescue of the Tibetan people, and he did not believe that Princess Wencheng, like a God, could affect the minds of the Tibetan people and influence the right and wrong of the Tibetan people.
Li Hong had no way to explain what the true faith was. If he knew that more than a thousand years later, more and more people would go to Tubo and regard them as a baptism of life and a washing of their hearts. They revered each other and worshipped Princess Wencheng among the beliefs they safeguarded with the most revered heart. He would not have scorned Princess Wencheng Gu!
Helplessly shaking his head, Li Hong said with a lazy smile: ”don't make a conclusion early. Only stupid people, when they don't touch the facts, will make a random conclusion by virtue of their past experience. I don't want you to be such a fool, so this one has never happened! After the first day of the new year, when you arrive in Tubo, you can look at it first, listen to it first, and then make plans. This is my only advice to you
Lin Shiling was shocked. From following the prince to now, his Highness has never warned himself so severely. Does it seem that he has to be careful?
Although he was afraid of the prestige of Prince Li Hong, it also aroused his character of not accepting defeat. It is obvious that those who can sleep in Chang'an City for several months after entering the severe cold will not easily cancel his plans because of the prince's warning.
Confident people are always like this. They can withstand failure and the glory brought by success. But above the glory, they can still accept other people's suggestions and then improve their own strategies. Lin Shiling is undoubtedly such a person.
He had absolute confidence in himself, at the same time, he was absolutely convinced of the words of the people he admired. Therefore, Lin Shiling's competitive heart aroused by Li Hong made him eager to leave and fly to Tubo to see what faith and God are!
After talking with these two people, the sun once again planned to finish work early and begin to sink downward toward the horizon. Chang'an City became dark again. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the wall, covering the large and small buildings in the city.
Half of the buildings in Daming Palace are also covered with a layer of sacred gold. In the dusk, it drags a long, slightly desolate and tired shadow. Together with the sound of the evening drum, it reminds the people who have been busy for a day that working at sunrise and resting at sunset is the law of nature.
