Hearing that Li Su finally spoke, Li Shimin finally showed a little smile, and Li Jing, Fang Xuanling and others next to him also listened quietly, wanting to see what kind of ghost ideas this magical King Qi His Royal Highness had come up with? Even the eldest grandson Wuji, who has always been at odds with Li Su, also showed a very solemn look. Only Li Chengqian, who is the crown prince, has a little displeasure in his eyes.

"Father, in fact, this method is not new, it is nothing more than four words to sow discord." Li Su said with a smile, since now is not the time to attack Tubo, then he can only make a fuss within Tubo, and the simplest thing is to let them mess up themselves.

"Sixth brother, what you said is easy, if you want to sow discord, you must have a target to provoke, but now the Tubo lord Songtsen Gampo is extremely strong, and the large and small tribes in the country dare not disobey his orders, with him pressing on above, it is impossible for Tubo to be provoked by us to provoke civil strife." Li Chengqian said with a cold expression that in order to cope with today's meeting, he also worked hard to study the situation in Tibet very clearly.

"Well, what Cheng Qian said is right, Tubo is not Goguryeo, and there is no powerful minister like the Yuan family, and there is no way to provoke it!" Li Shimin also frowned and said. And Li Jing, Fang Xuanling and others on both sides also shook their heads slightly, thinking that Li Su's method was not feasible.

"Father, the eldest brother is wrong!" Li Cheng glanced at Li Chengqian lightly, he didn't want to fight with the other party at all, but Li Chengqian always wanted to use him to show his extraordinary, "In fact, Tubo is not monolithic, and on the contrary, in my opinion, it is actually very simple to provoke Tubo in the country!" ”

When Li Su said this, he saw Li Shimin and the others all had surprised expressions, and he was secretly proud in his heart, his previous intelligence collection of Tubo was really not in vain.

"Father, if you want to provoke Tibet, the only chance is not in their domestic political situation. It's about religion! There are now two major sects in Tibet, the first is the native Bon religion, and the second is the Buddhist ......"

At the beginning, when they heard the word religion, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others were a little confused, but as Li Su explained, their eyes became brighter and brighter, and at the same time, they finally understood Li Su's plan, although this plan was cut from the perspective of religion, which was very remote. But it does have a certain feasibility.

Since the birth of mankind, religion has been accompanied by every step of human development, the three major religions of the world: Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism have appeared in the era of the Tang Dynasty, and they have all formed a large scale, among which Christianity has become the state religion of the Roman Empire as early as four hundred years ago, and although Islam has just been established for a few decades, the great food of this spiritual belief is rising rapidly, and Rome and Persia are falling into the water, and will soon usher in its first development peak.

But in the era of Datang. Neither Christianity nor Islam can be compared to Buddhism. Since the introduction of Buddhism from India to China in the Han Dynasty, the center of Buddhism has slowly shifted from India to China, especially during the Sui and Tang dynasties, when the Central Plains Dynasty was at its peak. The surrounding Silla, Baekje, Tibet, and Wa kingdoms all have traces of Buddhism, and it is worth mentioning that Buddhism has appeared. At that time, Buddhism was everywhere in Central Asia, but it is a pity that Islam later forced the local residents to convert with iron and blood, which made Buddhism disappear from Central Asia.

Tubo is sandwiched between the Tang Dynasty and Tianzhu, the birthplace of Buddhism, naturally more influenced by Buddhism, and this influence is still two-way, now in Tubo, Buddhism has appeared, and this kind of Buddhism is very peculiar, it is introduced from Tianzhu and the Central Plains two directions, and has the characteristics of Indian missionary and Central Plains Buddhism, but the influence of this Buddhism is still very weak in Tibet, and it cannot be compared with the native Bon religion.

The key reason why Li Su proposed to use religion to provoke Tibet was that the Bon religion in Tibet and Buddhism from abroad were in Tibet. Originally, Tibet was the world of Bon, whether it was the domestic aristocratic slave owners or the lowest slaves, they all believed in Bon, but foreign Buddhism also had unparalleled vitality, and slowly took root in Tibet, although it was still weak, but between slaves and commoners, there were already many believers, but in the entire upper society, Bon still occupied a dominant position.

In fact, this kind of religious situation in Tubo is very similar to that of the Tang Dynasty, which is a native religion and a foreign Buddhism, but because Buddhism entered the Central Plains Dynasty for hundreds of years in the morning, coupled with the vigorous promotion of some rulers, Buddhism in the Central Plains Dynasty was very prosperous, and the local Taoism was suppressed, even if the Tang Dynasty tried its best to promote the development of Taoism, but it still could not shake the foundation of Buddhism.

The development of Buddhism in Tibet was just beginning, and it would have taken at least a few hundred years to overshadow the indigenous Bon religion if there were no accidents, but this situation has changed because of one person, the first queen of Songtsen Gampo, that is, the princess of Nibra.

Nepal is located in Nepal in later generations, and it is also the birthplace of Buddhism, but with the strength of Tibet, Nepal was worried about the destruction of the country, so he married the princess and became the queen of Songtsen Gampo, and this ruler princess is a Buddhist, vigorously promoted the development of Buddhism in Tibet, and even persuaded Songtsen Gampo to also believe in Buddhism.

In fact, the reason why Songtsen Gampo believes in Buddhism is also for a political purpose, although Tibet was unified by him, and the large and small tribes in the country submitted to him, but there was still a force that he could not control, that is, the Bon religion developed in Tibet itself. The status of Bon in Tibet is extremely noble, although it cannot be compared with the situation of governing the country by Buddha in Tibet in later generations, but the difference is limited, the Tubo lord is nominally in charge of the domestic military and political power, but if this power conflicts with the interests of Bon, it will lose its due effect.

As a generation of male masters, Songtsen Gampo is naturally unwilling to be limited in his power, so when he saw the increasing influence of Buddhism in China, he immediately seized the opportunity to support Buddhism to fight against Bon, but Bon is not vegetarian, with its own strong influence, Buddhism has been pressed to death, so that many efforts of Songtsen Gampo have been ineffective.

After listening to Li Su's introduction to the dispute between Buddhism and Bon in Tubo, Li Shimin and the ministers in the Liangyi Hall all fell into contemplation, they also knew some of this information, but they have not paid attention to it, after all, in the eyes of the Tang people, no matter how strong the clan is, it cannot be compared with the imperial power at all, but I didn't expect that the Bon religion in Tubo has to retreat even Songtsen Gampo for three points, which is simply incredible.

"Liulang, is a little Bon sect better than the hundreds of thousands of troops in the hands of Songtsen Gampo?" Li Shimin also asked with some puzzlement, although Buddhism and Taoism in the Tang Dynasty are very prosperous, as long as the imperial court is willing, one of them can be attacked at any time.

"Father, the national conditions of Tibet are different from those of our Tang Dynasty, and religion has an unparalleled influence in the country, if Songtsen Gampo dares to use force against Bon, then not to mention anything else, most of the soldiers under his command must rebel!" Li Su said with a solemn face, but he was secretly smiling in his heart, the religion of Tubo is still just a pediatric, if it is said about the unity of religion and state in Islam, and the huge power of Christianity to appoint and dismiss kings at will, it is estimated that Li Shimin will think that he is telling a mythological story.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Qi is right, as far as the old minister knows, the Bon religion in Tubo does have a huge influence!" At this moment, Fang Xuanling also stood up and said, as the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, he naturally had to know the situation of the surrounding countries well, but if it wasn't for Li Su to mention it, he wouldn't have thought of making a fuss about Bon in Tubo at all.

Seeing that Fang Xuanling also stood up to confirm, Li Shimin finally nodded, and at the same time, a smile appeared on his face, and he turned to Li Su and said: "Liulang, since you want to start with Bon and Buddhism in Tubo, then you must already have some plans, tell me about it!" ”

"Father, the son can only start and put forward a general idea, as for the specific plan, this son really can't be compared with everyone in the palace." Li Su bowed and said. This is not modesty, but his true words, what sow discord is the ability of the dark people, although Li Su also has some experience in this regard, but compared with the old guys in the palace Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji, who are very deep in the city, they are still much worse.

"It's okay, just share your thoughts and let everyone see it!" Li Shimin still said with a pleasant face.

"Yes!" Li Su agreed, sorted out his thoughts and said, "If you want to provoke discord in Tibet, you can only start with Bon and Buddhism, now that Bon is strong, Songtsen Gampo is naturally unwilling to be restricted, so he has always wanted to support Buddhism, but unfortunately it didn't work, since this is the case, then we will help him!" ”

When Li Su said this, a wicked smile appeared on his face, and he said in a low tone: "Our Datang Buddhism is extremely prosperous, and we can select high-ranking monks with profound Buddhism from among them and send them to Tubo to preach, and use my Datang as the backing to protect their safety, and at the same time order people to print a large number of Buddhist scriptures and carve Buddha statues, so that those high-ranking monks can be brought to Tubo to facilitate their mission." In addition, for those important figures of Bon, one or two can be selectively assassinated, which can reduce the resistance to the spread of Buddhism and provoke disputes between the two religions, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. ”

Hearing these ideas put forward by Li Su, Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling and the others below looked at each other and smiled, the idea put forward by Li Su was indeed good, but on the basis of this method, it gave them a deeper idea.
