Zhuxia has always been a pan faith environment for faith. They can believe in everything, but they can not believe it in the blink of an eye.
The supreme ruler of the Central Plains Dynasty took the title of "the son of heaven" at the beginning, which means the son of heaven, hunting on behalf of heaven, herdsmen and so on.
Later, the son of heaven gradually got rid of God. With the change from generation to generation, the son of heaven was shaped into a God. The most representative is the power to seal the God, including the power to declare a God as a false god, and even to block the God.
Throughout the history of all countries in the world, it will be found that the supreme ruler of the Central Plains Dynasty has the power to enjoin and kill gods. In turn, a considerable number of countries are canonized by gods, or they need to be recognized by gods to sit on the throne of rulers.
After Constantine I supported ji1 Du1 religion, Rome experienced the civil war of three co rulers. The coronation ceremony of ji1 Du1 religion for the ruler was inherited.
Constantius II became the only Augustus in Rome after the coronation ceremony, which opened the legal succession procedure that Augustus in all Roman dynasties must accept the coronation.
Later, this trend prevailed in the whole of Europa. If the ruler of any nation or country did not go through the ceremony of the coronation of the gods, he belonged to the kind of grass king. It was a necessary step to get the recognition of the gods.
"Therefore, the people of Daqin can't get around the foundation, supervision and education at all." Cai Mian never stopped his research on Rome and said with certainty: "since Constantine I supported ji1 Du1 religion, the people of the Qin Dynasty were destined to be inseparable from ji1 Du1 religion."
It must be said that although the current ji1 Du1 religion and the modern ji1 Du1 religion have the same name, the core and doctrine have changed again and again, and their actions and ideals are consistent.
From the moment the Christian Church was supported by the Roman rulers, they had the idea of "liberating all mankind". Their liberation is not to save suffering, but to make all mankind become the lamb of the "Lord" and achieve world harmony from the perspective of faith.
Spreading faith is often much more ferocious than national expansion, and even more bloody.
Wars between countries basically aim at occupying each other's territory. If the land is occupied, the people on the land will not be affected if they don't make trouble; In the contest between religions and beliefs, of course, land is to be obtained, and forced conversion is even more inevitable. It is rejected and sacrificed frequently. There are many frightening means and tricks, and there is absolutely no mercy for pagans.
"The great Qin Dynasty and Persia are engaged in a war on faith." Wang Meng went all the way from sassanne of Persia to Rome. When people were in the Middle East, they saw bloody sites or saw killings with their own eyes: "the war of faith is far more bloody than the national war. At least the national war will leave children, women and children for the defeated."
Wang Meng is right. Nowadays, the war on religion is really cruel. They have seen too many cemeteries in Iraq and Syria. The largest cemetery has more than 30000 bones. They learned that it was different beliefs that killed all men and women of all ages.
Nation to nation, country to country, the winning party will not kill indiscriminately even if he is crazy. He prefers to squeeze out surplus value, such as being a slave, compared with clean killing.
"Meng is lucky to have heard some words from the emperor." Wang Meng recalled it carefully and said, "monotheism is more aggressive than polytheism. Monotheism will not give up the plundering of faith. Their truth is to make their faith consistent. They are willing to do anything to achieve this goal."
Liu Yan has one more thing to say. Monotheistic believers are far more paranoid and crazy than polytheistic believers. If we compare the believers of both sides, polytheistic believers are far more gentle than monotheistic believers.
Doua is concerned: "will they continue to provoke?"
That's inevitable. How Rome is, it's not the most important thing that ji1 Du1 religion cares about. Ji1 Du1 religion cares about initiating divine war.
Whether the emperor of Han is a God or a living God, ji1 Du1 religion is doomed to hostility from the moment it knows.
It's a simple truth. At the beginning, ji1 Du1 religion also had a living God son, but it's not the God itself. Later, the son of God belongs to the embrace of the "Lord", and there is only the spokesman of the "Lord" in the world. Nothing is more "unfair" than our God in heaven and the God of the Han people in the world.
For ji1, Du1 and Yijiao, any other religion is an enemy. From the moment we know that the emperor of Han is God, Han naturally becomes the primary enemy. Then there is nothing more attractive to the basic 1 governor 1 religion than to take the emperor of the Han Kingdom under his command, or overturn the emperor of the Han kingdom to the ground.
There is no mouth. Since the Central Plains Dynasty entered the vision of the Europa people, it is one thing for the rest of the Europa people to have any views and ideas about the Central Plains Dynasty. The monotheistic religions of Europa have only one proposition, that is to make the emperor of the Central Plains Dynasty become "his own person", and if he cannot become "his own person", he must be eliminated. This attitude has continued from the moment it was born, and it may continue forever.
There is a historical fact, In the history of neon country (also known as foot pot chicken), after they were knocked open by a black boat, the Western religious 1 religions immediately rushed up and tried to destroy the belief system of neon country one after another. If they were reckless, they would lure them. Neon country wanted to be in line with international standards, and they did achieve their goal at one time. The problem was that neon country found that it had fallen into the sinkhole and corrected it in time.
Of course, the religious 1 religion in Europe will not let go of "I Qing", that is, how can "I Qing" be the same as neon? In such a matter, "I Qing" can be described as stubborn resistance to the end. It is because of the lack of force that many actions have become stupid museums. In fact, if "my Qing Dynasty" is still regarded as a Heavenly Kingdom, it is another result.
Europa's invasion of the east from religious 1 beliefs was a career that had been launched in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The most successful one was still firmly established, that is, "Nestorianism".
"Nestorianism" is the Nestorianism, that is, the eastern Assyrian Church. On this side of the Central Plains, it was once accepted by the upper class and developed many believers. Even when Emperor Xuanzong Li Longji was in power, five princes went to worship.
Li Longji's support for "Nestorianism" was not rewarded, or the reform of "Nestorianism" was carried out during this period. For example, the introduction of Zhuxia sages was tantamount to breaking the boundaries of monotheism. Then there is the "Jingjiao" during the "an Shi rebellion" on the side of the imperial court. In contrast, the once prosperous Buddhist 1 religion is lucky that it did not engage in a single moth, and Taoism, which has been supported by the royal family of Li and Tang Dynasty, is a pure spectator.
Of course, whether it is "Jingjiao" or any religion, life or death, prosperity and decline in Zhuxia depend on the views of the imperial court. The wave of "eliminating Buddhism" launched by Tang Wuzong is mainly aimed at Buddhism. The problem is that all religions have suffered together, including "Jingjiao".
In modern times, there is no dominant religious 1 religion among the Han people. If you insist on saying something, "Confucianism" was also badly weakened in the Holocaust.
There is one thing that hasn't changed here in the Han people, that is, the war of sect 1 is not fun at all. No matter which sect 1 kills, we dare not worship our ancestors, and most of us dare to fight with ya. Seriously, isn't this defending your faith?
"We all have the goal of spreading the 'only' order as truth." Doua's "only" is to let everyone return to the rule of the son of Heaven (Lord): "the arrival of war is late or early, which cannot be avoided."
Let alone, as long as it was the Central Plains Dynasty in the expansion period, they all held the idea of letting everyone bathe the emperor longen, insisting that only one piece to accept the emperor's grace is the truth in the world.
If there is an expansion period, there is a conservative period. The elite of the conservative Dynasty had a very simple idea. They were unwilling to share the grace of the emperor with more people. They didn't even think that those guys outside China were human and only regarded them as animals who could walk on two legs. So why can we enjoy the grace from the son of heaven like us?
"Big men are not afraid of war, nor are they afraid of war." Wang Meng is now an angel and is qualified to speak this sentence. But he frowned and continued: "the big man is eager for war, but... Now is not the time to start war with Daqin."
There are still a lot of mess in the Han Dynasty. Even if the domestic mess is solved, there will be new problems in the a'san continent and the western regions.
"The center has a detailed plan. It will take at least 20 years to digest ah San." Wang Meng even thought that twenty years was short. He said on the other side: "to recover the western regions, the next thing to face is how to get along with Persian sassanne. Continuing to march westward will cool the relationship with Persian sassanne, and even fall into the freezing point. Stopping is not in the interests of the great man."
In fact, before they came, the idea of Han was to deepen the relationship with Rome, so as to form a strategic situation of sandwiching Persian sassanne in the middle in the future. They believed that the Romans had the same attitude, that is, they neglected the existence of ji1, Du1 and Christianity.
Han people want to play happily with Rome for a period of time, but there will be no tolerance in anything. Equal communication is the biggest compromise.
The prepared people set out for the arena. There was no accident on the way.
When Julian learned that Wang Meng and others came to meet him in person, he specially observed who Wang Meng had brought, mainly to find out if there were fierce people who were warriors.
Helena came out with Julian to meet her. She specially put on a dress made of Shu brocade. The rich and bright colors are the most on the spot. She is also trying her best to show herself in all aspects of speech and behavior.
After so many things happened, Helena actually didn't know at all. She also held the dream of becoming the emperor's concubine in the state of Han, which led to both enthusiasm and the intention of being a leader in the reception of Wang Meng.
Wang Meng and others saw what Helena was doing at once, but the marriage had not been made public, but there was no strange reaction. They just accepted a warm to excessive reception.
The Romans present soon found the difference between Helena and the Han people. The gossip they had been spreading seemed to have been confirmed. I don't know how many people were happy.
All the way to the indoor hall, the welcoming person was Constantius II. In the process, Helena led the Han people to salute. After the two sides greeted each other, Wang Meng ordered people to carry out a box.
Constantius II had been looking forward to it. He thought that the Han people wanted to give themselves gifts. As a result, the gift was given to Helena, who had no sense of existence.
At that moment, Helena's face turned black in an instant. Julian was mercilessly relieved. Constantius II's face kept changing. Helena was completely stupid. The expressions on other faces and thoughts in her mind were rich enough.
Next, Wang Meng ordered people to carry out several boxes. All royal family members except Helena received gifts, especially Caesar (Gallus).
This time, except Helena's face was still blue and her limbs were stiff, all the other people who received the gifts were smiling and couldn't wait to open the box one by one.
The box is not small. Unfortunately, not everyone has obtained Shu brocade. Everyone has a set of porcelain and tea. The rest are works of art full of Zhuxia characteristics, such as bronzes and paintings.
Helena didn't want to open the box, but all the people who received the gift opened it, and she could only open it.
The moment the box was opened, there was a burst of exclamation. On the first layer of the box was a pearly treasure color dress. Looking at the cloth as silk, there was no doubt that the problem was that the outer layer was full of pearls and gemstones of various colors.
Wang Meng gestured to Helena to have a look again. The lower floors are all Shu brocade of different styles. If the price is set at 100000 gold coins, excluding the top skirt, the value of the Shu Brocade taken out will reach 500000 gold coins. If you count the rest, it will be a very valuable gift. If the total value is more than 2 million gold coins, it can be convincing.
"What is this?" Constantius II saw that the bottom of the box was ordinary clothes, not silk, not Shu brocade. He wondered, "the bottom cloth of the clothes style?"
It's a suit made of silk. The main color of the main skirt is red, with black stripes and other accessories. It's really not gorgeous. On the contrary, it looks very simple.
"Helena." Julian could not care what occasion it was, and urged: "immediately, immediately, immediately... Find a place to change!"
