Chapter 600: The Gods Protect Tumut (Part II)
Outside the Jokhang Temple, the guards of the three ladies have surrounded the temple, and the bow is wound out of the sheath, making it murderous. There is a matter of pulling Rick, this kind of arrangement is not excessive, but you can only see the guards of the three ladies on the scene, and you can't see other people's guards, and this pressure is self-evident.
The guards knew Fan Jin, so naturally they wouldn't stop him and let him in. A lama led the way and led Fan Jin towards the temple. On the way, I saw a strong lama with an iron rod in his hand and a high degree of vigilance, no more lax than the guards outside. Fan Jin had a smile on his face, his steps were extremely brisk, and he applauded the arrangement of the third lady in his heart: this woman is really a manufacturable material, and she doesn't need to teach herself, she knows how to maximize the use of non-war means to exert pressure. Compared to the traditional chieftain, who can only kill, she is a qualified leader.
When the person came to the outside of the room, he heard the voice of the third lady inside, her tone was passionate, but with a bit of banter, and she didn't seem to regard the person she was talking to as an opponent.
"Brother Kunduliha, do you know what the old prince said about you at the beginning? My old brother Du is always so loyal and brave, you can give him all the difficult tasks to do, and he promises not to be afraid. But you have to remember that everything that requires the use of your brain, you have to make your own decisions, because my brother has a knife full of knives and doesn't know how to use strategy. ”
"Jong Kim, what do you mean by that?"
"What do you mean? That means you're stupid! I didn't even figure out who should be supported as the Great Khan. You ask me why I should be a great khan? Well, I'll tell you now, Buhe's lineage has me, and there is the living Buddha of Jokhang Temple as proof, no one can question it! He is the bloodline of the old prince, and like these people around you, he is qualified to inherit the throne. But what can really send him to the throne is not because he has the blood of the Golden Family in his body, but the saber under my hand, the bow and arrow of Haishou, the fast horse of the Sute tribe, and the spear of the Wushen tribe. More importantly, the iron cavalry and cannons of the Ming Dynasty all supported Bu and the Great Khan. The Ming court will continue to bring in grain, and more and more tribes will support Buhe. And the people around you, what do they have? Their cattle and sheep are less than one-tenth of what I have raised, and each of them has only one thousand-man army, and their warriors are as weak as lambs! I can give the order to make any of their tribes disappear before the sun sets. Now you tell me, who should be the Great Khan compared to the cloth and the people around you? If you ask them who dares to say that they are more suitable for doing a great sweat than Buhe, you can stand up now and let me see! ”
There was silence in the room.
Fan Jin was so excited when he heard it that he almost couldn't help but applaud the third lady, and he didn't need to pass it on, so he walked directly into the room.
In the room, the situation at this time is very strange. The old generals and the sons of me are far superior in numbers, but in terms of momentum, they are suppressed by the three ladies and a woman. The three ladies wearing the Eight Treasure Crown and the Hundred Phoenix Clothes on their heads, their eyes were like electricity, and they swept on everyone's faces, looking over one by one. Everyone she targeted was like a whip. Some people bow their heads, and some people quietly take a step back, proving their innocence through their actions and proving that they have no intention of sweating.
The third lady sneered: "What qualifications does a person who doesn't even have this kind of guts have to lead the territory of the Mert tribe to declare war on Chahar and Hetao!" The Tumut they lead will only weaken and eventually perish! The Horde does not need a weak sweat, especially now. ”
"Madame Zhongshun is right!" Fan Jin opened his mouth at this time, he ignored the eyes of the old generals and others looking at him, walked straight to the side of the third lady, and said to everyone: "This official Fan Jin Fan retreated, and patrolled Xuanda according to the holy order, and now he is representing the Ming Dynasty and discussing with the Tumut tribe who will inherit the throne." The horse market must have an edict to be allowed to enter, and the edict must have the golden seal of the prince and his wife in order to be valid. Three Great Khans have died in succession, and Tumut is now in a precarious situation. The Tumen of Chahar may swallow you at any time, and the tribes that have been conquered in the past may rebel at any time. Da Ming Nian took the initiative to return to the old prince and Mrs. Zhongshun has always been loyal to Da Ming, and the two have no feelings for fighting for many years, and are willing to help the Tumut tribe tide over the difficulties. Da Ming and Tumut should be friendly from generation to generation and never stop the sword soldiers. The court will not sit idly by as to Tumut's difficulties. I have already negotiated with my wife that I will transport 200,000 stone of grain to solve the current shortage of grain in the grassland. In addition, cloth, silk, scriptures, and other things will be discussed with the lady to ensure the supply as much as possible, so that the people will not suffer, nor will you suffer. These materials will be transported to Dabansheng City, and I believe that Mrs. will send the materials in the most fair way to ensure that everyone does not suffer. ”
Although these people are straightforward, they can still understand such a simple truth. Fan Jin has always emphasized that he had agreed with the three ladies, and said that the materials would be transported into Bansheng City, which means that these materials are nominally to aid Tumut, but in fact they are to aid the three ladies. If the third lady can't do it, then these materials will naturally cease to exist.
Some of my sons have already spoken: "Bu and ...... If Bu and his brothers sweat, it's actually not impossible, but the leaders don't know if they will agree, after all, it's not in accordance with the rules. ”
The third lady said coldly: "Our rules are all exchanged for blood. Whoever dares to resist the Great Khan's orders to cut off his head, take his cattle and sheep, and make his tribe disappear is the oldest and most useful rule of the steppe! ”
The old man said: "But the cloth is too small." He couldn't give an order at all, could it be that there should be two Great Khans on the steppe? ”
"Although there is only one Great Khan, Jinong can be set up. As far as this official knows, the grassland tradition originally had the official position of Jinong, but later the old prince canceled it and can now be restored. Lady Zhongshun can serve as a Jinong and govern the grasslands instead of the Great Khan. I believe that with Madame's talent, it is more than enough to do this. ”
The old man looked at the third lady, "Zhong Jin, do you think so too?" ”
"Brother Kunduliha, I want you to do this Jinong. I'm a woman, and I've been in charge of the Great Khan for too long, and I'm tired for a long time. What I want to do most now is to stay in the Jokhang Temple and pray for the Great Khan every day, hoping that he can become a Buddha as soon as possible and bless the prosperity of our tribe. I can hand over all the accounts and inventory to you at any time, and I don't want to worry about other things. ”
"No, that's not going to work. I can only fight, I can't do such a big thing as managing the steppe, you have done a very good job of managing the tribe for the Great Khan before, and you should continue to do it now. The old man didn't hear the meaning of the general in the words of the third lady, but on the contrary, he analyzed the pros and cons very seriously.
"But if you want to be Jinong, you must be in harmony with the cloth, which is our tradition." He glanced at the third lady, "This is ......"
"Yes, it's tradition, and it doesn't matter if I want it or not. For the sake of the whole Tumut, I am willing to make a joint account with the cloth and at any time! ”
The third lady agreed very happily, which was completely different from Xin Ai's previous attitude of pushing back and blocking when she asked to close the account, and even did not hesitate to use force. After all, the third lady has not yet had the experience of being a mother, so she just used the cloth to try her hand with this boy who was less than two years old, and first learned how to take care of the child, so that she could use it in the future.
Fan Jin immediately followed up at this time: "Okay! That's a great thing! When the Great Khan grows up, the wife will return the government to the Great Khan, which is a grassland story. On that day, Mandu Haikedun also revitalized the grassland, and Mrs. Zhongshun also imitated the ancients and sages this time. The official believes that Tumut will definitely prosper this time, and the previous tragedy will not happen again. ”
The third lady saluted solemnly towards Fan Jin and said, "Thank you for the blessing of the Great Envoy." The entire people of Bansheng City know that you are the one who is blessed by the Bodhisattva, because of your arrival, the Bodhisattva has descended supernatural powers and saved food rations for the people of Bansheng City. Your blessing should be heard by the entire Tumut people, so that everyone will be happy! ”
"Don't dare to be. Although this official is a Ming official, he is also the son-in-law of Tumut, and I and Dolan have just become one, and now they are half Tumut. Naturally, I hope that the tribe will prosper as much as possible. I think that the sooner the ceremony of the succession of the Great Khan and the inauguration of his wife to Jinong is held, the better, so as to calm the people's hearts. ”
"Everything is arranged by the angels."
As soon as the two sang and harmonized, the matter was finalized. Even the veterans no longer objected, and the others were outnumbered, and they didn't dare to say a word more. When he walked out of the Jokhang Temple and returned to his tent outside the city, someone couldn't help but ask, "Uncle." Do you really support cloth and do big sweat? Don't you think that the guy surnamed Fan is making trouble in there? ”
The old man looked at the nephew, shook his head and said, "When I was hunting, you were still breastfeeding. The old hunter was in the wind and could smell where there was a trap. But I know better that we can't go against everyone at the same time. Zhong Jin's choice is right, if Da Ming can provide us with food, we should cooperate with them. We have already lost three Great Khans and cannot afford to lose a fourth. No matter who it is, as long as it can stabilize the situation and make people feel at ease, I will support him as a Great Khan. I don't need your support for Buhe, but I need you to be true to your father and to your bloodline! If anyone wants to collude with Tumen, I will kill him with my own hands! ”
Under his prestige, several nephews did not dare to speak much, so they could only retreat. The old general, who was alone in the tent, said to himself: "Brother Khan, as long as I don't die, I won't let people destroy the foundation you have laid down." Tumut cannot fight among themselves, and tribes cannot kill each other. As long as the tribe can prosper, it doesn't matter who is the Khan and who is the Jinong. When Buhe grows up, I will teach him to be a real Mongol, and when the time comes, I will drive out the Ming people, and everything will be in time. ”
"When Buhe grows up, he's going to hand over power? On the prairie, the standard of growing up is very vague, you can shoot arrows with knives, and you can sleep with women, so you may be regarded as growing up, what should you do when the time comes? ”
Walking from the Jokhang Temple to the residence, the three ladies whispered to Fan Jin to ask. Fan Jin smiled: "I don't think you will give him a chance to grow up." Ten or eight years later, he will die, along with his mother. If you let him live to be sixteen, maybe you'll really have to settle accounts with him. Have you heard about Xian Miao and Wan Guifei, if you don't know, I can tell you. ”
"Then I won't suffer, think about the time when there is a strong boy in his teens who has been pampering me, maybe I earned it." The third lady smiled at Fan Jin, her attitude was still bold and hot. The relationship between Dolan and Fan Jin didn't seem to be an obstacle to her, but it made the contact between the two more reasonable.
She looked at Fan Jin, "You lied." Judging by the time, you are not one with Dolan at all! Otherwise it wouldn't be so fast. ”
"It's too late. Besides, Dolan may not accept me, and if she does it reluctantly, it will be a disservice to her. I still hope you all have a great day. This is especially true for a woman like her, who has been hurt. ”
The third lady snorted, "You Han people are really strange, where can you take care of a lot of major events at the moment." I don't care, before the Great Khan succeeds to the throne, you must settle accounts with Dolan, otherwise she will not be at ease. This child's temperament is a bit withdrawn, you want her to take the initiative to pester you like your woman, you can't do it, you have to take the initiative yourself. Anyway, if she doesn't beat you with a whip, it proves that she is willing. In fact, if you want to find a talent, she also said it, and she will not regret it. Besides, this is a big deal, and she can tell the difference. ”
"What do you need me to do about the Great Khan's succession?"
"You don't have to do it, but the materials you promised ......"
"It won't be long." Fan Jin smiled slightly, "The guide caught from Tuo Lik can kill the Dai Wangfu." colluded with Tumut and wanted to sacrifice Datong, which was the death line of the vassal king. Not to mention a vassal king to be attacked, even the real prince must also die. The land of the king's mansion is even strange, the rats in the house are so fat, and the wealth of the master's family is even more immeasurable. You can rest assured, there will be grain and grass delivered soon......"
The third lady frowned, "No...... Don't have so much grain and grass to bring in. Well-fed eagles don't hunt, they have to starve them a few times. The first batch of grain is going to arrive, and I have arrangements for the future. ”
"Listen to you about the things arranged, how are the things I said doing?"
"According to what you said, I sent people to various tribes and made up a tune so that the herdsmen knew that the angels of the Ming Dynasty gave them food and clothes. Make sure that these things are sent to them, not to the head. I just don't understand, what's the use of that? The grassland is the grassland of the head people, and even if those herdsmen support me, it will be meaningless. ”
Fan Jin shook his head and smiled, "The army of the head man is also the son and brother of the herdsmen, and the authority of the head people comes from the recognition of the herdsmen. A king who is not recognized by his people is not worthy to be king. You can't see the support of these herders now, but in a few years you will know how important they are. They are the most important part of the blueprint I have built for you. In the future, you will also need lamas to help you publicize and convince the herdsmen that you are a bodhisattva. ”
"I know, and I want people to know, that there are two bodhisattvas who have descended to earth today. One is me and the other is Empress Dowager Li, right? ”
"That's right. Do it nicely, don't let people grab it. ”
The third lady sat down with a smile, "Whether this matter can be done well or not depends on your means...... Niece and son-in-law! ”
Fan Jin also smiled, found the painting tools familiarly, and began to paint for the third lady. This is a picture of the Buddha's light shining in the background of the appearance of the three ladies, in the painting, the Buddha is shining brightly behind the three ladies, and the light shines on the grassland. Naturally, this picture is not to be taken out now, but to wait until the right time to take it out and build momentum for yourself.
Originally, only one was enough, but the third lady insisted that Fan Jin draw three, in addition, she also had to learn to paint, Fan Jin couldn't refuse, but I don't know what use she learned. After all, his painting work does not come from himself, and no matter how hard the third lady is, he can't reach his own realm.
Five days later.
The first batch of grain, grass and cloth from Shanxi was transported to Bansheng City, and at the same time, the number of people from all over the country had reached more than seventy. I saw the mountains of grain and grass, and a large amount of cloth and silk. The faces of the leaders were extremely happy, and it was not so difficult to accept this female Jinong.
It was in this atmosphere that the consciousness of Buhe's succession to the Great Khan, and the ceremony of the inauguration of the three ladies as Jinong were held at the same time. Fan Jin participated as the envoy of the Great Tomorrow, and put a rushed crown on the head of the third lady. The moment the crown was worn, the two of them intersected their eyes, the eyes of the third lady rippled, and the discharge of the two eyes made Fan Jin's heart sudden.
At this moment, Dolan rode his horse and led a group of cavalry from afar, shouting as he ran: "Fire Sieve and his men have robbed us of our food!" The food sent by Daming was snatched away by them! ”
