Chapter 871: Surrender (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
***
On the first day of the third month of the third year of Longwu, the leaders of the Tubo tribes rushed to Chang'an together.
These tribal leaders arrived along with the 4th Panchen Lama Erdeni Lok Chokyi Gyaltsen of the Gelug sect and the 5th Dalai Lama Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso.
The 4th Panchen Lobsang Chokyi Gyaltsen was 79 years old at the time and had a very lofty position in Tibet. He advocated that the sect should be less contentious, and he especially worshiped Tsongkhapa, was proficient in Sutra and Tantra, and published scriptures. Both the Fourth and Fifth Dalai Lama's Lamas worshipped him as their teacher.
One thing to be clear is that just a few years ago, it was not the Yellow Religion that dominated Tibet, but the White Religion.
The official name of the White Sect is the Kagyu School, and it focuses on the practice of tantra, which in turn must be passed on by word of mouth from master to disciple. Because of the white stripes added to the skirts of Kagyu monks, it is commonly known as Baijiao.
In the fourteenth year of the reign of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, the 4th Panchen Lobsang Chokyi Gyaltsen and the 5th Dalai Lama Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso quietly sent people to Moxi and asked Gushi Khan of the Heshute Department of Moxi to lead troops into Tibet and overthrow the Zangpa Khan who believed in the Kagyu school.
Gushi Khan sewed Zangba Khan, who had banned the Dalai Lama's title, into a raw cowhide and threw it into the river and drowned. Then he supported the Yellow Sect to gain dominance in Tibet.
In other words, it took only a few years for the Yellow Sect to overtake the White Religion in Tibet. Now Gushi Khan, who supported the Yellow Sect, was destroyed by Great Qin, and it was wiped out so cleanly;
This is also the reason why the 4th Panchen Lobsang Chokyi Gyaltsen is nearly 80 years old and personally rushed to Chang'an to meet the Great Qin Emperor.
On the specifications for receiving the Fourth Panchen Lama and the Fifth Dalai Lama, there were considerable differences between the ministers of the DPRK and China, and some advocated cold treatment or even suppressed them. Some advocate giving enough courtesy and holding it high.
After Gao Yigong's 15,000-strong army entered Tibet, he incorporated 30,000 horses from various Tibetan units, plus Yu Shangyou's skill. Now that the situation in Qinghai and Tibet is basically under control, the military generals feel that there is no need to color the Panchen Lama and the Dalai Lama at this time.
Wei Yuan said: "Your Majesty, the situation in Qinghai and Tibet is special, the local people are extremely devout about religious beliefs, I Daqin wants long-term peace and stability in Qinghai-Tibet, and the minister thinks that the religious beliefs of the local people should be considered, and now the Panchen Lama and the Dalai Lama are coming." If the imperial court suppresses it, it will easily arouse the dissatisfaction of the people of Qinghai and Tibet, which will be extremely detrimental to future governance. ”
Shoufu Sima An said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is not appropriate to deliberately suppress, but Qinghai-Tibet has always had the habit of combining politics and religion, so let one faction dominate, which is also not conducive to governance."
The 4th Panchen Lama, the 4th Panchen Lobsang Chokyi Gyaltsen, advocated that the sect should fight for the establishment of the sect and establish the household, and that all factions should live in peace. The imperial court could follow his wishes and treat the other four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism: Nyingma, Sakya, Kagyu, and Kadampa schools equally. ”
It is impossible to change the beliefs of the Tibetan people all at once, since this is the case. Sima An's method is a feasible strategy, supporting the other four sects to avoid the dominance of one faction.
A piece of cake is divided equally, and everyone has to eat. But no one can eat, and they have nothing to do.
"Do you think the opinion of the ministers is advisable?" Qin Mu inquired, and seeing that everyone didn't raise any objections, he said, "Then let's do it according to the opinion of Scholar Sima." ”
At last. Qin Mu ordered Lin Junxiu, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, to come forward to receive him, and let the Ministry of Rites receive it instead of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the meaning of which is already obvious, this is not a foreign matter, but an internal affair of Great Qin. This means that Great Qin will definitely establish Qinghai-Tibet Province in the near future.
At the same time, the abbot of Chang'an Daci'an Temple, Faqing Zen Master, recruited the Buddhist monks of the Central Plains, and also gathered in Chang'an, although Tibetan Buddhism and Buddhism in the Central Plains have the same origin, but they are very different.
Qin Mu felt that it was necessary for Tibetan Buddhism and Central Plains Buddhism to strengthen exchanges and make more integration with each other, which might be helpful for the governance of Qinghai-Tibet.
Therefore, Qin Mu issued an order to let the 4th Panchen Lama and the 5th Dalai Lama stay together in the Great Ci'en Temple and communicate with Faqing Zen Master and others. On March 2, the two sides took the altar to preach Zen, which attracted thousands of empty alleys in Chang'an City, and they went to the Great Ci'en Temple to watch.
Qin Mu was in the Jinluan Hall of Xianyang Palace and accepted the audience of the leaders of the Monan and Tubo tribes.
Good fellows, hundreds of clan leaders, large and small, under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, rushed in. There were originally few officials from the Great Qin who accompanied Xijing, and there were only more than 20 civilian, military and military generals combined. As soon as these hundreds of clan leaders entered, Daqin's Jinluan Hall seemed to be occupied by a foreign race.
Until the ceremonial officer shouted: "Kneel! ”
The scene changed greatly, and I saw hundreds of tribal leaders kneeling down on the temple like wheat waves, and bowed three times and bowed nine times: "Long live, long live, long live!" ”
Qin Mu was wearing a black gown, wearing a crown of twelve crowns, sitting on a golden chair, looking down from the high Danqi, he saw that the leaders of the tribe were respectful and respectful, and they worshipped with the voice of the salute official, and none of them dared to show their unruly attitude.
Such a result was won by thousands of Great Qin soldiers throwing their heads and spilling their blood.
In the face of absolute strength, these once invincible clan leaders had only two choices, either surrender or perish, and they chose the latter.
Qin Mu slowly unfolded his big black sleeves and said loudly: "Flat!" ”
"Thank you."
Only then did the various leaders stand up one after another, and some of them quietly looked at the dragon chair, and there were twelve Yu hanging in front of the emperor, so that his face could not be seen very really, but it could be seen that he was very young, but his whole body was full of a solemn and deep feeling, which made people dare not force his eyes.
"I summoned you and others to come to Xijing, and I am very relieved that you can come as scheduled." Qin Mu paused and said slowly, "Since ancient times, all ethnic groups have fought and killed each other, and wars have broken out, causing heavy disasters to the people of all ethnic groups. Since I am the Son of Heaven, I have the responsibility to put an end to this strife and prevent the people of all ethnic groups from being devastated by war again.
From now on, regardless of whether the land is north or south, and whether people are of any race, they must live in harmony, communicate with each other, unite as one, and work together to safeguard the hard-won peace. If anyone dares to provoke a war for their own selfishness, everyone must fight against them together. Do you have any objections? ”
"No objections."
"We have no objections"
"The ministers are willing to obey His Majesty's orders."
Hundreds of tribal leaders bowed down one after another, competing to express their attitudes, the shape is stronger than people, who dares to oppose it at this time?
Qin Mu said with satisfaction: "As long as you are sincere and obedient, I will naturally have a reward. But I also put ugly things in front of me, and if anyone goes back on their word in the future, then it's no wonder that I'm harsh. ”
"I can't wait."
"Your Majesty."
"If anyone goes back on his word, we will obey His Majesty's order and crusade against him together."
“……”
There was another chaotic statement. Compared to the well-trained Great Qin officials, who could speak almost in unison, the voices of these clan leaders sounded as chaotic as those selling vegetables in the market.
But this doesn't matter, what Qin Mu wants is not the oath on their lips, in the final analysis, Yiqiqi still speaks with strength, and today in this Jinluan Palace, it is just to seize the name of righteousness. Everyone said that they were obedient, and if there was a difference in words and deeds in the future, Daqin would send troops to fight, and the division would become famous.
Next, Qin Mu asked the Ligong to take out the holy decree, and announced the canonization of the leaders of various tribes in the hall, more than 100 people, the names are all strange, just reading the list took a lot of effort, and it took nearly two cups of tea to read the entire holy decree.
After the canonization, they were given official uniforms and seals, and everyone accepted them, and the names of the kings and ministers were formalized.
Qin Mu then continued: "This time I summoned you to Beijing, in addition to canonizing you, I will also hold a hunt, please participate in it. Originally, this spring season is not a good time for hunting, but there is still a wolf in the Hetao, which makes the surrounding people uneasy, so I will take you to hunt this wolf this time. You have traveled all the way to Beijing, and you are tired from the journey, so let's rest for two days first, and after two days, we will go hunting together. ”
The leaders of the various tribes looked at each other, each with their own thoughts, they knew very well who the wolf Qin Mu was talking about. This time, it seems that there is a drama to watch.
