Chapter 847: The Visitor (Part II)

After the meeting, Silence restored Noyandara's freedom, allowing him to come and go as he pleased, and to walk freely in Yulimburg. In short, "apart from not being able to go out of the city, he wants to do whatever he wants." Noyan Dara has been locked up for nearly two months, and all day long she is looking at the square sky above her head, and she has long been thinking quietly and "wants to go shopping."

So on a fine day, he called the soldiers who served and took him around the streets. The soldiers changed his military jacket, dressed him as an officer, and took him out of the Governor's Mansion to appreciate the customs of Yulin City.

In the impression of Noyandara, Yulin City has a long history, "since ancient times, it has been a key point in the northwest, and this dynasty is one of the important towns on the nine sides, all the people are soldiers, and the people are fierce." When he first came here, he only saw that the city was full of soldiers, horses, and people, and the people were unbearable, and most of the shops were closed, and there was no such thing as rich and prosperous as he imagined.

But this time, when I came out, I took a closer look calmly, in fact, the streets and alleys here are neat, and the houses are abundant, no matter where it is convenient, it is much stronger than my own Jinong City.

And he found that the streets that were chaotic and full of cow and horse dung when he first came here became clean when he looked at it again...... The debris and garbage on the streets were all swept away, and the brigade of people were also disbanded on the spot and went home for the New Year. The officers and men walking on the streets were no longer casual and sloppy, but were neatly dressed and lined up with their heads held high. There are a lot of people coming and going, and they are all like this, and there is no wanton disturbance of the people.

For this change, Noyan Dara was naturally curious, and asked the soldiers who accompanied him, only to know that after Shen Inspector arrived in Yulin, he hated the phenomenon of officers and soldiers disturbing the people, and strictly ordered the rectification of military discipline "prohibiting arbitrary disturbance of the people, which is not a new topic for Shen Mo", and when Hannan put down the rebellion, he had already worked with Qi Jiguang to simply popularize the military regulations and military laws, and compiled a military song similar to the three disciplines and eight points of attention, which required every soldier in the army to sing.

After the officers and men have clearly understood military discipline, a special inspection team will supervise it at all times, and once violations of discipline are discovered, "they will be severely punished in accordance with military law." The units with the lowest ranking in the rate of discipline violations by the officers and men of each battalion will receive all kinds of spiritual and material rewards, such as double salaries for the month, mobile pennants, and so on. As for the officers at the bottom of the line, they will be criticized, seized, and even demoted. Under this kind of rectification, which blends leniency and severity and clearly distinguishes rewards and punishments, in just two months, "the military style and discipline in Yulin Fort have greatly improved."

The common people were no longer harassed all day long, and the city suddenly seemed to be alive...... The closed shops gradually all opened, and the eldest girls and little daughters-in-law dared to go to the streets. In the streets and alleys, the sound of selling and soliciting has risen one after another, and even the sound of silk and bamboo comes from the Qinglou powder kiln.

This is the first time that Noyandara has seen a vivid scene of a Han Chinese city. Naturally, seeing the hunting heart, stretched out his neck and looked around, how could he not see enough, the soldiers on the side couldn't help but feel a little complacent, and said that this is where to go, and you will be a Mongolian Jinong town, and you want to go to Xi'an City to see, will your eyeballs fall ......, Da Ming is very good for his own appetite, Noyan Dara secretly thought, although Yulin Mansion is not the heart of Da Ming, and there are more soldiers than people, but compared with the poverty and hardship of the Mongolian tribes, struggling to survive, it is already heaven and earth.

δΈ€δΈ€"一一、一"一、一"δΈ€"δΈ€,ε£Ή

After all, he is a Mongolian Jinong, and it is impossible for him to run out without anything, and he wandered around the street for a long time, "After eating some snacks from Shaanxi, he returned to the governor's office, and the gate did not go out of the second door" and waited for the arrival of the distinguished guest that Shen Ge Lao said.

However, it was his own people who waited first......

When he saw his daughter appear in front of him, Noyandar straightened his mind and thought that he was "hallucinating." It wasn't until Zhong Jin called out: "Abba", that he came back to his senses and pinched the back of his hand, grinning: "The pain doesn't seem to be a dream." ”

"Of course it's not a dream." , Zhong Jin asked more than a dozen entourages to bring in the weak cage he brought, took his arm and said, "As soon as I received my father's letter, my daughter moved, and it took a lot of trouble to see Abba. ”

"What are you doing here?" , Noyan Dara looked at her daughter's beautiful face fondly, and found that she had lost a lot of weight.

"Taking care of Abba, of course." Seeing that his father was not abused, the big stone in Zhong Jin's heart also fell to the ground: "You are a dignified Jinong, how can you not have a clansman around to serve you?" This theory can't be broken anywhere. ”

"Silly boy, you can't take care of yourself." Noyan Dara took her daughter's hand and asked with concern, "Is your injury healed?" ”

"It's been around for a long time," Zhong Jin chuckled, "It's alive." "It's wonderful......" Noyandara asked her mother and her two brothers again, and when she learned that they were all right, the big stone in her heart fell to the ground, and she took her daughter to sit down on the edge of the kang and brought her snacks to eat.

Shen Mo didn't treat this Jinong badly at all, and the eight kinds of dim sum on the table, jujube paste cake, water chestnut cake, lotus root cake, and apple crisp, all of which were refined and delicious, could not be eaten on the grassland.

Zhong Jin couldn't stop after tasting a small piece, and his little mouth was so stuffed that he almost choked.

"Eat slowly, it's all yours." , Noyan Dara hurriedly poured her a bowl of red date tea, her eyes were red and said, "My daughter has suffered, hasn't she eaten enough for a long time?" ”

Zhong Jin was embarrassed to put down the snack in his hand, held the tea and bowed his head and said, "The life of the clansmen is very embarrassing......

"I guess it'......," Noyandara said gloomily, "The steppe people are like wolves, and no one will help us in times of great trouble."

Zhong Jin frowned slightly when he heard this, and said softly: "I can only save myself." ”

"Yes," Noyandara smiled happily, "It seems that the girl and Abba have the same mind," but I don't know what about your brothers? ”

"Brothers, ......", Zhong Jin was stunned for a moment, and then he understood that Abba had misunderstood what he meant, but when she thought about it, she didn't explain, and nodded a little disguised: "Of course ......I listened to Abba,"

"That's good, that's good." Noyandara was relieved: "I'm still worried that the young man has a strong temper and can't turn a corner. ”

"How so?" Zhong Jin smiled and said, "What do we know?" Or Abba stands tall and thinks far. ”

"One generation is stronger than the next, and it is ......," Noyandala shook her head and asked, "What letter does your eldest brother have to give to Daddy?" ”

"Yes" Zhong Jin took out a note from his sleeve and handed it to his father.

Noyandara took it and saw that it was Behe's handwriting, and said: "What the letter says is all up to my father," just please let the Han people send grain and grass as soon as possible to relieve the danger of the clansmen. After reading it, Noyan Dara frowned and pondered for a moment, then nodded: "I'll see if I can see Inspector Shen again." ”

One, one

Noyandara did not see Shen Mo immediately, for the latter had now gone eight hundred miles west to Guyuan Town to personally "greet the distinguished guest who had come from afar."

What kind of person can make the dignified Prime Minister and the Nine-sided Supervisor treat it so solemnly, which makes Wang Chonggu, who knows the inside story, very puzzled and curious.

However, Shen Mo knew that "this person is related to the future relationship between the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia and Tibet, and it is very necessary and worthwhile to give a good impression to the other party, and the name of this person is Sonam Gyatso, the reincarnation of the living Buddha of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism, a figure destined to last forever."

In fact, a long time ago, when Shen Mo was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he wrote to this eminent monk and invited him to come to Beijing to pay tribute, "Sonam Gyatso gave a warm reply" and sent the Axing Lama, whose status was second only to himself, to bring rich tribute to Beijing, but he did not come in person. After the Grand Parade this autumn, Shen Mo once again formally invited Sonam Gyatso, the third living Buddha of Drepung Monastery, to visit Han through the Axing Lama, who was observing the ceremony in Beijing.

He originally estimated that with the big name of the living Buddha, "he would have to look at the thatched house three times", but what he didn't expect was that only two months later, Sonam Gyatso had a reply, saying that he was preaching the Dharma in Qinghai and could leave at any time, and asked the imperial court to arrange the itinerary. Seeing that the other party happily agreed" and that it was not far away, Shen Mo was very happy, and while playing the emperor, he sent important officials to meet Sonam Gyatso and discuss with him the specific itinerary of the Hajj. Because the road from Qinghai to Shaanxi is difficult and dangerous" and bandits are rampant, and the post is not complete, Shen Mo specially ordered Lanzhou Wei to allocate 2,000 elite soldiers to escort it.

At the same time, "he also ordered the construction of a temple of Sumeru Fushou in Yulin Fort for the living Buddha to live and preach, and Noyan Dara saw the chaos in Yulin City" most likely due to the construction of this Yellow Temple. Even in order not to be embarrassed to meet and talk with the other party, Shen Mo also used his leisure time on official duties to "learn Tangut language and study Tibetan history, and his intentions can be described as good."

On the way to Sonam Gyatso, Shen Mo not only sent people to receive him along the way, but also constantly expressed his concern and condolences, and personally came to Guyuan to greet him. Finally, at the end of the third year of Longqing, I met Sonam Gyatso and his party who had come thousands of miles after hard work.

The heavenly huā is rendered by countless literary and historical works in later generations, as if the first meeting of two great figures like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. In fact, the truth is in the ice and snow" The two young men who were frozen and their noses were frozen asked each other deflated: "You are Shen Ge Lao?" "You are the Living Buddha of Sonam?" After the other party nodded, the two struggled to squeeze out a smile, moved their bloated bodies, and hugged each other.

That year, Shen Ge was thirty-two years old, and Sonam Gyatso was not yet thirty years old, although they hugged each other affectionately, both of them couldn't help muttering in their hearts, why is this guy so young, can he do it?

However, the slightest contact dispelled all these doubts, and the silent demeanor and aura went without saying. Sonam Gyatso, who is five years younger than him, can even make people completely ignore his age and regard him as a great monk.

This is not surprising, because people are reincarnated. Before the death of the living Buddha, he would predict the direction of his reincarnation, and then the monks of the three major monasteries would find him, and the reincarnated spirit child would be recognized, and he would be brought back to the temple to be carefully cultivated, and he would take over the rights of the living Buddha when he became an adult.......

The third living Buddha of Drepung Monastery was born in the family of a serf owner on the fifteenth day of the first month of the 22nd year of Jiajing. When he was four years old, he was recognized by the monks of Drepung Monastery as the "reincarnated spirit child" of the Second Living Buddha and welcomed to the temple, and the senior monk who temporarily presided over the temple took the Dharma name Sonam Gyatso.

Poor Sonam Gyatso began a career of studying Buddhist scriptures day after day, day after day. Perhaps he is really a reincarnated spirit child, whose wisdom is profound and supernatural, so that every monk who has taught him "deeply admired" and more convinced that he is the reincarnation of a living Buddha.

After 18 years of hard training, Sonam Gyatso has become a well-behaved and well-educated monk. Since he was a teenager, he has traveled extensively in Tibetan areas, preaching the scriptures and teachings, and using his influence to actively engage in social activities.

When he was 14 years old, Sonam Gyatso reconciled the feud between Dongdipa and Jonggi, causing them to stop fighting and eventually reconcile. Since then, he has been committed to eliminating the bloody conflicts between various forces, and has also won a high reputation for himself, and everyone in the post-Tibetan region knows about it, with countless believers.

At the age of twenty-two, he was ordained as a bhikshu and qualified to serve as abbot of Drepung Monastery. A few years later, another of the three major monasteries of the Yellow Sect, the monks of Sera Monastery, "also asked him to serve as the abbot of the monastery...... and before coming to Han China, he converted tens of thousands of believers in Qinghai Hongfa for three years and built three lama temples. How do you measure such a character by age?

Two young people who have been in high positions for a long time are likely to be unhappy with each other. But both of them are modest in temperament, humble in their hearts, and both have a strong purpose, and they are very willing to make friends with each other, so they cherish each other as soon as they meet, and then they talk very happily and hate each other.

The ten-day journey from Guyuan back to Yulin" The two sat in the car all day long, talking every day...... They are all people who are rich in learning and five cars, and they are talented and talented, so naturally there is no shortage of talking points. When they arrived at the destination, "the two already have lifelong confidants."

Maybe the initial intersection was utilitarian, but now, they do introduce each other as confidants and start digging out their hearts and lungs.

What could be more exciting in this world than the discovery of two geniuses who would never compete to find out that they were of the same kind?

After the Living Buddha was settled in the newly built temple, Shen Mo remembered something and said, "Tomorrow I will bring that Noyan Jinong to visit the Living Buddha." ”

Sonam Gyatso smiled faintly and said, "Happy ...... ",..." and "............ One point pours "Sichuan" ...... "people.........

Sonam Gyatso is the first living Buddha to receive the title of **...... But he hasn't gotten it yet.

Today, I was confused by the scriptures of Tibetan Buddhism, and it turned out to be late, forgive me.
