Chapter 124: Observing the Government by Order (14)
"The foreign minister has seen Han Naji to the Shangguo Qincha, please Emperor Sheng'an of the Ming Dynasty."
"Saint-Ann. Taiyoshi, please. ”
"Your Majesty, may Your Majesty the Emperor live long, long live, long live."
After the ceremony, Gao pragmatic waved his hand to signal the removal of the etiquette program, and then stepped forward to help Han Naji, and said with a smile: "I have been friends with Taiji God for a long time, and today I can see Taiji's honorable face. In my opinion, although there are many Mongolian heroes, there is no one with great wisdom like Taiji. ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." Han Naji hurriedly said: "The foreign minister lives in a remote territory, vulgar and unliterate, where dare to be so praised by the Qincha?" However, Qin Cha is young and promising, and he is already a bachelor at a young age, and the admiration in the hearts of the ministers is really indescribable. ”
As soon as Gao Shishi heard it, he knew that this guy had misunderstood the "fake bachelor", but there was nothing to explain about this matter, so it was better for him to misunderstand.
So Gao Pragmatic put on a great Confucian style, and said with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that Taiji is a rare person in Mongolia who admires the king, and this time Taiji came to the south, I am very pleased." ”
Hannaji sighed and said, "I'm not afraid of Qincha's jokes, in fact, although I have always hoped that the Great Khan can reconcile with the Ming Dynasty, but if it weren't for the changes in my family, it would be difficult to make up my mind to vote." ”
Gao Shishi shook his head in his heart, and secretly thought: This kid really doesn't talk very much, you have already come, shouldn't you say that you want to come south, but you really have no excuse before?
But thinking about it, after all, the more Hannaji is a city-free mansion, the easier it is to fool, and it is not a bad thing, and he looked indifferent at the moment, and said with a slight smile: "Taiji is really a sincere gentleman...... and then the conversation changed, and suddenly said: "However, Taiji, you just said that you have always hoped that your grandfather would be friends with me?" ”
"yes!" Hannaji said without hesitation: "I have often said to the Great Khan before, what is the use of fighting with the Great Ming? The Ming Dynasty has hundreds of millions of people, rich all over the world, and has millions of soldiers. Not to mention that Mongolia is now divided by two wings, and it has long ceased to be prosperous, even if it can be reunified, it will definitely not be the opponent of the Ming Dynasty. In this case, why not send a tribute and the two sides communicate with each other? The Ming Dynasty needed Mongolian horses, leather goods and other things, and Mongolia needed more Ming grain, cloth and even iron pots. It's a pity that although the Great Khan was moved, he said that Da Ming refused to trade with me, and even if he traded, there were too many restrictions, and he always wanted to make peace and fight for a while. There are some fools in the clan, who are always greedy for the little money they send troops to loot, thinking that instead of doing business, it is better to come and get it directly, which is really a mouse's eye! Alas, I can't help it. ”
Gao Pragmatic was slightly surprised, and said secretly: Although this guy's brain is so straight that he doesn't know how to turn, he didn't expect to see the big truth, so I don't know if this is his own early idea, or who influenced it?
At the moment, he smiled and nodded: "Taiji's words are very insightful, in fact, the so-called Mingmeng's century-old grudges are just old things, how can they be so important today?" If Mongolia is like Taiji, I am afraid that the two sides have already stopped their troops and made peace, and on the thousands of miles of frontier, all industries are prosperous, and the people are happy, how can there be many events at present? ”
Hannaji nodded, and sighed again.
Gao pragmatically asked: "Taiji just said that Gui Khan wants to fight for a while, and wants to make peace for a while?" With all due respect, if it continues like this, in a few years, even if you want to make peace, I am afraid that it will be difficult. ”
Hannaji was stunned and surprised: "Why? ”
Gao pragmatic said: "Your ministry has suffered a series of disasters in recent years, and all parts of Tumochuan have been seriously damaged, so even if you want to buy some horses from the private market, even if the Han caravan pays a high price, it is difficult to buy them, but in recent years, it has ...... Taiji also knows, just my caravan, how much did Shopkeeper Cao buy from you? This is only part of the reason, your ministry has suffered frequent disasters in recent years, but the Chahar tribes are prosperous, and they have gained more and three guards, and their momentum has been revived...... Can Tumen Khan tolerate the close Lingzu Altan Khan to continue not to take him seriously? ”
Hannaji's face changed, but he still said: "Even if our department has suffered some disasters, we are not afraid of the Tumen. ”
Gao pragmatic smiled and said lightly: "But the Tumen have not been as unscrupulous as Zu Litan Khan in Jiliao all these years...... I have a lot of voices inside, thinking that it is better to strictly control the flow of materials into Tumochuan, so that you and others will be used day by day, and then be overtaken by Chahar...... In this case, what should be done with Tumochuan? ”
He put Hannaji on his forehead and said, "This ...... Although our ministry has suffered serious disasters in the past few years, we can't keep suffering disasters, right? ”
Gao Shishi laughed and said mysteriously: "I'm afraid Taiji is going to be disappointed, there are a group of great lamas in my Chaojing division who have already calculated that your ministry will still have disasters in the next few years." ”
Hannaji was taken aback: "What do the great lamas say? ”
"Without him, the killing is too much." Gao Pragmatic clasped his hands together: "I remember that your ministry is also a believer in the Yellow Sect, didn't the lama of your ministry remind you of this?" ”
Hannaji even began to sweat coldly on his back at this moment, and stammered: "Yes...... Yes, and I ...... I said to fight less and ...... more Doing business is also something that the great lamas often tell me...... But the shamans said it was okay. ”
Gao Pragmatic smiled in his heart: I knew that this was the case.
However, Gao Pragmatic knows better that sooner or later the "Immortal Heaven" will be taken down by the Buddha, but it is just ...... The Buddha didn't move fast enough, so he decided to help the Buddha and speed up the shamanism.
Shamanism is the native religion of the Tungusic tribes of the north. Shamans originally referred to the shamans of various tribes, who did not have a common scripture or a unified organization, and whose teachings depended entirely on the communication of the shaman's celestial beings.
"Immortal Heaven", called "Menghe Tengri" in Mongolian, is the core of the Mongolian shamanic system, and he has the ability to dominate all things in the world. In the continuous development of the Mongolian people, the concept of "immortality" has been constantly enriched and improved, but it has not formed a scripture necessary for a religion.
Legend has it that the Mongolian shamans had a scripture called "Huhe Suder", but a sorcerer named Hao Bogetai broke the precepts in the scripture, and as a result, the scripture was taken back by Maitreya Buddha.
Seeing this, many people may wonder, Maitreya Buddha is a Buddhist figure, how can it appear in shamanism? This brings us to the struggle between Buddhism and shamanism.
After Genghis Khan established the Mongol Empire, shamanism also flourished, and even influenced the government. "Genghis Khan" was given to Temujin by the Mongolian shamanic leader at that time, Kokuta Tib Tengri.
Power is like opium, and the power above one person is still not satisfied, and gradually the idea of controlling the Mongol royal family is gradually born. He often provoked Genghis Khan's brotherhood in the name of immortality, and was finally noticed by Genghis Khan, who executed him on the pretext that "God does not love him".
From then on, shamanism lost its transcendent status, and as the empire continued to expand, Genghis Khan was keenly aware of the need for a higher religion to serve his rule, so the Mongol Empire allowed different religions to develop equally in order to absorb advanced cultures.
Temujin's tolerant attitude made it possible for the Mongols to come into contact with a variety of religions. After the death of Genghis Khan, the Mongol Empire collapsed. His children and grandchildren chose different religions according to their preferences. The khanates of West and Central Asia converted to the Green (River Crab) religion.
After Kublai Khan met with the young Tibetan monk Phags-pa at Liupan Mountain, Tibetan Buddhism, or Lamaism, spread among the Mongolian aristocracy as the "imperial religion". However, after the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty severed the connection between Tibet and Mongolia, and Lamaism gradually faded out of the grassland.
How can it fade out? Gao Shiyu strongly needs Lamaism to re-enter Mongolia!
