Zhongyizhao is currently the only temple in the city of Totok, which was built at Chataiji's own expense, so it is a symbolic temple, symbolizing that the Tumut hierarchy has completely sided with the Yellow Sect.

Of course, this is also a way for Chataiji to show his loyalty to Meda.

Chataiji's financial resources are limited, and it is far from being comparable to Hannaji, so this temple is not very big, and it is just an ordinary small temple on the side of Daming.

However, the small temple is still divided into the front hall, the main hall, the apse and the left and right two side halls, the high arch "high Buddha" is enshrined in the side hall on the left.

It stands to reason that the ancestors of the family entered the temple, for Gao Pragmatic, it should be vigorously promoted, just like the historical Wei Zhongxian Wei Changgong once enjoyed the treatment of "Jiansheng Ancestral Hall", and even handled this matter to the world, and there were officials everywhere in the world to give him Jiansheng Ancestral Hall.

However, Gao Pragmatic is not nine thousand years old, and the fact that the Mongols lifted Gao Gong into the Buddhist temple is somewhat different from the Jiansheng Temple, but Gao Pragmatic still has to consider the reaction that this matter may cause after it is transmitted back to the Ming Dynasty.

Normally, there should be no big problem, after all, Buddhist temples are generally just commemorating merits, and it is unlikely to be reminiscent of situations such as winning people's hearts and conspiring to rebel.

But the problem is that this Buddhist temple was built by the Mongols, and the statue of the high arch was also made by the Mongols, which is worth examining.

Therefore, Gao Pragmatic decided to deal with it in a low-key manner for the time being, and after returning to Beijing, he would first talk to Zhu Yijun about the situation.

Although Zhu Yijun has a good relationship with him and has a lot of feelings for Gao Gong, there is a way to be a lot of money, and it is still very important not to have a bad impression in front of Zhu Yijun.

The high-arched idol itself is not tall – that's for sure, are you more like the Buddha than the Buddha in the Mahavira Hall?

However, this statue is really seven or eight points similar to the appearance of Gao Gong, especially this statue is not as kind as the portrait of Gao Wenzhenggong of the Mongolian that Gao Shishi saw before, but frowns slightly, looks down slightly, and seems to be thinking about something.

It's interesting to look down a little bit, just looking down at the people who came to worship him.

As soon as Gao Shishi raised his head before bowing, he seemed to see the third uncle frowning and looking at him, as if asking him: Come to me again today, what do you have to say?

In an instant, Sanbo's former voice and smile came to his heart, and Gao Shishi's eyes were hazy.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and leaned down.

"Third uncle, I'm here for the peace of the northern border of the Ming Dynasty." Gao pragmatic silently recited in his heart: "Since you have become a Buddha in Mongolia, please bless your nephew, for Daming, and for yourself to complete this great thing." ”

After the three kowtows, Gao Shishi got up, his face was solemn, and he looked at the statue of the third uncle for a while, and silently walked to the side.

Chataiji stood behind him, and at this time he also stepped forward with three sticks of incense, made a pray, put on the incense, and then came back and bowed respectfully in front of the futon, without any rebelliousness.

Gao Pragmatic was a little surprised, and when Chataiji got up, all the generals under his command also stepped forward one by one to kowtow.

Chataiji walked to Gao Shiji's side, and saw that there was a hint of inquiry in his always calm and watery eyes, and he couldn't help but smile: "Is the envoy very strange? ”

"A slight surprise." Gao replied bluntly.

"Actually, the envoy doesn't have to be surprised." Chataiji sighed and said: "The Great Khan spent forty years, just seeking to exchange money with the Ming Dynasty, how much effort was put in, maybe you Han people don't know very well, but...... I know. ”

He looked into Gao Shi's eyes and said, "So, I gave Gao Gong a statue of the god and moved into Zhongyizhao, hoping that he can accept the incense of the Tumut people forever." ”

Gao was silent, and only nodded after a while, and said, "Thank you." ”

Chataiji waved his hand and said, "There is nothing to thank for this, compared to the favor of the high prince to my Tumut, my little thing is nothing." Envoy ...... Gao Gongzi, the grace of Gao Gong in the past years, so that I don't know how many people in Tumut can live, so I erect a statue for him and enter the temple. You are the nephew of the Duke of Gao, and I have heard that the whole world regards you as the heir to his mantle, so I very much hope that you will be as kind to Tumut as Gao Gong, and that the Tumut people will treat you as they treat Gao Gong. ”

I'm not dead yet, and I don't really want to enter the temple yet......

Of course, this is a joke. Gao Pragmatic understood what Chataiji meant, nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you for your anticipation." I can also reassure you that I have no ill will towards Tumut, even if ...... The interference in Tumut Chechen Khan was proposed by me like the emperor, but ......"

Gao pragmatic said sincerely: "Please believe that I am doing this not only for the sake of Da Ming, but also for Tumut." ”

Chataiji was a little surprised, but he couldn't see any signs of flickering or falsification in his pragmatic eyes.

He is a Jebel divine shot, his eyes have always been very poisonous, his confident and pragmatic eyes can't escape his observation at all, but the pragmatic eyes really didn't flinch, and they looked at him frankly and openly.

This made him doubt in his heart, he was not confident, frowned slightly, and asked, "May I ask why?" ”

Gao pragmatic said without hesitation: "Because regardless of public or private, Dacheng Taiji is the best candidate for the king of Shunyi, you can think about it...... Why? ”

Chataiji frowned and said: "I can only think of one thing, that is, Dacheng Taiji has always been pro-Ming. ”

"That's an important point, but it's not quite." Gao Pragmatic smiled slightly, and said: "Qin Ming, it is nothing more than being able to maintain continuous tribute with my Daming, but ...... Oh, let me put it bluntly, even if Xin Ai Huang Taiji becomes the king of Shunyi, does he dare not be pro-Ming? ”

Cha Taiji's face changed slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "What does Gao Gongzi mean by this?" ”

"That's what it means." Gao Pragmatic said lightly: "From the statue of my third uncle into the temple, you can see how important it is to exchange money with the Ming Dynasty, if Xin Ai Huang Taiji really became the king of Shunyi, no matter how dissatisfied he is with the Ming Dynasty, he must stick to this tribute market, and if he wants to smoothly pass the tribute market, he must make a pro-Ming appearance, otherwise...... You all know Daming's style of doing things, as long as he is a little disrespectful, the mutual market will stop! ”

Chataiji was shocked by the words "mutual market must stop", and his body trembled slightly.

Gao pragmatic continued: "At that time, not only will he not even be able to do this King of Shunyi, but he will not be able to sit firmly on the throne of Chechen Khan, right?" In this case, how dare he not be pro-Ming? ”

Cha Tai Ji quietly swallowed a mouthful of spit and asked, "In this case, what difference does it make for Da Ming whether he is the king of Shunyi or Dacheng Taiji is the king of Shunyi?" Gao Gongzi, why did you suggest that the emperor intervene in this matter? ”

Gao pragmatic smiled and said, "Because Dacheng Taiji has more advantages." ”

"More advantages?" Chataiji frowned and said, "He...... Well, with all due respect, Dacheng Taiji has not experienced anything at all, and as the lord of Tumut, I am afraid that it may not be safer than Xin Ai Huang Taiji. ”

"You just think that he is too young, and he has not fought any big battles, and the only time he made a big disturbance, but he was lucky enough to contribute to the tribute, right?" Gao Shishi smiled and said: "I am not very old in the next year, and I am even much younger than Dacheng Taiji, but the emperor still sent me to envoy Tumut, and gave me full power to preside over the canonization matters. ”

Chataiji shook his head and said, "How can this be generalized? Gao Gongzi, you are the Wenkui of the Han people, I heard that not long ago, there was a great achievement, 'partial teacher and Annan', even I, a Mongolian who is far away in Saibei, knows. In the words of you Han people, you are an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, and Dacheng Taiji...... It's not comparable. ”

Gao pragmatic shook his head and said, "Chataiji, there is one thing you have overlooked. ”

"What did I overlook?" Chataiji asked with a frown.

"Anyone who wants to make a difference, a career, has a premise, that is, someone is willing to give you the opportunity to show your talents." Gao pragmatically said: "For example, for me, for example, you are all like this. ”

"You and I are like that?"

"Nature." Gao pragmatic said: "If I don't have the importance of the first emperor, I won't have the opportunity to accompany the emperor, if the emperor doesn't understand me, he won't give me the opportunity to do anything 'partial teacher Ding Annan', you say, if that's the case, even if I have great talent, what's the use?" ”

"And you are the same, if Altan Khan did not canonize you as Taiji, did not give you his subordinates, and did not take you on the expedition...... Just ask me, even if you have such skills, how can you use them? ”

Chataiji suddenly nodded and said: "This is a truth, if there is no letter of the Great Khan, it will not be able to escape from the grassland." ”

"Therefore, whether Dacheng Taiji has the ability or not, he can't make a judgment just because nothing big has happened now, and I think he is very capable." Gao pragmatic while the iron is hot.

"Very capable?" Cha Taiji hesitated a little and hesitated: "Where did Gao Gongzi see it?" ”

Gao pragmatic said categorically: "I saw it twelve years ago...... Dacheng Taiji was the first person in Tumut to understand how to deal with my Daming, and for this alone, he was far superior to many of Tumut's so-called fierce generals. ”

"He's the first person to understand how to deal with Da Ming?" Chataiji hesitated: "How to deal with Daming?" ”

Gao Shishi laughed and said, "It's actually very simple...... It's just deferential. ”

It's not a nice word, Chataiji frowned slightly.

Gao Pragmatic but as if he hadn't seen it, he said lightly: "The 30,000 households of Tumut are only a part of Mongolia, regardless of whether its strength has swelled to exceed that of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, but it is still only one of the 60,000 households in Mongolia, do you admit this?" ”

Of course, Chataiji could only admit it, and nodded immediately.

Gao pragmatic said: "That's it, the Northern Yuan Dynasty lost the Central Plains, and it is no longer the co-lord of the world, and my Ming status is even higher than that of the Northern Yuan, and Tumut is only a part of the Northern Yuan. ”

Even if there were, Chataiji couldn't say it, because this was my decision, so he could only continue to nod.

Gao pragmatic continued: "And does Da Ming have any needs for Tumut? Ah, you may say that the Ming also needed the cattle and sheep of Tumut, especially the horses...... Right? ”

Chataiji didn't speak, but that's clearly what he meant.

Who knew that Gao Shishi shook his head and said, "Then you are wrong, Da Ming doesn't need anything...... Think about it, when the Ming Dynasty did not exchange markets with Tumut in the past, how many more people died in Tumut every year? What about Da Ming? Will the Ming starve to death because he doesn't exchange markets with Tumut? Of course not, the people of the Ming Dynasty do not live by eating beef and mutton. ”

Chataiji was stunned by Gao Shishi, and hesitated: "What about horses, Daming has always needed horses, and now he has to buy at least tens of thousands of horses from me Tumut every year." ”

Gao Shishi smiled and said, "Horses are needed, but not necessary - do you know the difference?" If it is necessary, it is not possible to do it; Yes, there is a better one. ”

He Shi Ran said: "The Ming Dynasty has the Great Wall, the border fortified city, and countless large and small dock forts, even if there are no horses, they can still hold the border - this Altan Khan has tried countless times, right?" Therefore, horses are such a need for Daming, not a necessity. But whether the Ming Dynasty has goods or not, they are all necessary things for Tumut, such as grain, cloth, iron pots, etc., etc., if there is no one, it will be a big deal, right? ”

Seems to be the truth? Chataiji's brow furrowed deeper and deeper.

Gao pragmatic said: "Therefore, in this situation, Tumut's demand for Daming is far greater than Daming's demand for Tumut, Dacheng Taiji saw this, so he has always been interested in Daming, and finally because of a small opportunity, he came to Daming, and with the most deferential performance, he won Daming's trust in him, and since then he has ...... Oh, you know all this, Altan Khan even gave him the entire western outpost in order to reward him - do you think Altan Khan just wanted to reward him? No, Altan Khan has a deeper purpose. ”

Chataiji has been completely led astray by Gao Pragmatism, and immediately asked: "What is the deep meaning?" ”

Gao Pragmatic said lightly: "Just let him be Chechen Khan." ”

Chataiji was shocked: "How is it possible? ”

"How is it impossible?" Gao pragmatically asked: "In Mongolia, who can be the Great Khan without strength?" However, who is the strongest in the Tumut Division? Daesung Taiyoshi! ”

"But Xin loves Huang Taiji......"

"How many soldiers and horses does he have, and how many troops does he have?" Gao Pragmatic continued to ask rhetorically: "Besides, who is in the hands of Mongolia's richest Dabansheng City?" You should know that even the Naturalized City of the Chuan Wangting of Fengzhou is not as rich as the Dabansheng City...... Let's ask, if the Great Khan didn't want Dacheng Taiji to be the Chechen Khan, how could he give him such a powerful power alone? Do you think that with the wisdom and martial arts of the Great Khan, he will give him such strength just because he loves Dacheng Taiji? Isn't the Great Khan afraid, that the new Chechen Khan is jealous of Dacheng Taiji's strength and kills him? ”

Chataiji was so shocked that the sweat came out and muttered, "Great Khan...... Is that what it means? ”

Gao Pragmatic continued to increase the weight, and said: "Let me ask you again, the Great Khan gave Dabanshengcheng, the first city in Mongolia, to Dacheng Taiji, but where did Xin Ai Huang Taiji go?" ”

Chataiji subconsciously said: "Go to the east and guard the Tumen." ”

After he said this, he suddenly shocked himself and stood on end—the Great Khan sent Xin Ai so far, did he really not want him to inherit the throne?

Gao pragmatic and just right: "You see, my Daming will never throw the prince to the border alone - the prince of the country, naturally he should stay by the emperor's side to learn the skills of governing the country, what to do at the border, the border only needs the governor and the border general to be able to guard, where do you need to go to the prince in person!" ”

Chataiji was in a daze, and hurriedly said: "But Xin Ai Huang Taiji is Dacheng Taiji's uncle, he is the eldest son of the Great Khan, a natural heir, even if Dacheng Taiji's father Tiebei Taiji is still there, he is not qualified to compete with Xin Ai Huang Taiji." ”

Gao Pragmatic said coldly: "May I ask, how much does your ministry sweat?" Did he ever think about being the Great Khan of all Mongolia? ”

"This ......" Chataiji broke out in a cold sweat again, everyone knows this truth, but the Great Khan has never said it, and no one can talk nonsense.

Gao Shishi snorted and said, "If Altan Khan doesn't have such a mind, then where does the reincarnation of 'Kublai Khan' begin?" Chataiji, you don't need me to remind you that Kublai Khan's khanate was also played. ”

Chategi lost his strength and muttered, "Great Khan...... Is it ......?"

Gao Pragmatic suddenly shouted: "The meaning of the Great Khan is already clear, you claim to be a loyal minister, do you want to disobey his will!" ”

Chataiji was so shocked that he took three steps back in a row, and hurriedly waved his hand: "How could I disobey the Great Khan?" I, I give everything to the Great Khan, I listen to the Great Khan for everything! ”

It should be almost 10,000 words today, but that's the end of the plot, I don't feel like a hard stopper.
