Chapter 12: Twin Stars Shine
Chapter 12: Twin Stars Shine
In November, the north is already icy and snowy, and the biting cold wind blows, rolling up snowflakes and flying in the air.
In the western part of the imperial palace in the southwest corner of Kaiping, a newly built city in Mongolia (now east of the Zhenglan Banner in Inner Mongolia), there is a simple and secluded room, the facilities in the room are simple, except for a slightly old bookshelf full of books, there is only a bed, a table and a stool, at this moment, two men are sitting on the ground.
One of them, a middle-aged man about fifty years old in a yellow dragon robe, said, "My lord, what should I do later?" ”
The man in the dragon robe was none other than Kublai Khan, the Great Khan of Mongolia.
After the death of Möngke Khan of Mongolia five years ago, Kublai Khan, who was attacking Ezhou (now Wuchang, Hubei) in the Southern Song Dynasty, learned of Möngke Khan's death, negotiated peace with Jia Rudao, and decided to return to the north and compete for the throne. After the death of Möngke Khan, his three brothers were all eligible to be called Khan, and the Mongols originally had the custom of inheriting the ancestral inheritance of younger brothers, but Möngke's youngest brother Hulegu became Persian Khan in 1256, far away from the Mongolian plateau, and did not ask to inherit the throne of the Great Khan. The remaining Kublai Khan and his third brother, Ali Buge, were both proclaimed Khan in the same year, and the two sides staged a fratricidal drama, almost repeatedly, until recently, with the surrender of Ali Buge, Kublai Khan was able to win a complete victory.
After Kublai Khan became Khan, he built a new city and palace in his base camp Kaiping Shangdufu, and after defeating Ali Buge, he sent people to build a new city in Yanjing (now Yanjing) to prepare to move the capital.
Kublai Khan is tall, full of beard, even if he sits on the ground, he looks extremely majestic, and his air is extraordinary, and a domineering spirit is involuntarily revealed, while the man opposite who is called an adult by Kublai Khan is very thin, this person is wrapped in black clothes, only revealing an old face, looking like a person who is blown down by the wind.
The man in black is very old, and his face is calm and natural, as if he is not shocked, making it impossible to see through the depths.
This person is the Lord of the End of Heaven Yin Tianya that Yuan Jian once said, and he is also the great god of Mongolian shamanism.
If Yuan Jian was present, he would definitely be able to see that this Yin Tianya was the kind of peerless master who was full of empty doors, but you had no idea where to start, that is, the number one master in Yuan Jian's mind except for the Valley of the Kings.
The two sat together, and the contrast in figure was great.
Although he was the Great Khan of Mongolia, Kublai Khan was extremely respectful in front of Yin Tianya.
Yin Tianya said expressionlessly: "Great Khan, Ali Buge, who is competing with the Great Khan for the throne today, has surrendered, and he can be escorted to the capital without saying anything. At present, the Great Khan's position in the Central Plains has been stabilized, but the four major khanates in the west, such as the Kipchak Khanate, the Ögedai Khanate and the Chagatai Khanate, refused to recognize the position of the Great Khan on the grounds that the Great Khan did not convene the Great Khan Conference attended by the descendants of the four sons of Genghis Khan, which violated the "Zasa" (Code) set by the ancestors, and the Sinicization policy adopted by the Great Khan. But we can't rush to war with it, we should first straighten out this land of the Han people, use Han to control Han, restore agriculture and commerce, enhance national strength, and when the time is ripe, first destroy the Southern Dynasties, and then map the west. ”
Kublai Khan pondered for a moment and said: "Your Excellency is reasonable, first of all, we should restore our national strength, as long as our country's power is strong, it will be easy to capture it if we go south or west, but just ignore this western khanate?" ”
"Naturally not, the present Central Plains has been temporarily decided, and the Great Khan can immediately send urgent envoys to the western Ulus (the kings' divisions) to summon them eastward to the Mongolian steppe and reconvene the Kuritai. It was declared that the Great Khan was ready to follow the traditional practice of convening a Kuritai Assembly attended by the kings of all clans in the domain of the Green Ripple, the birthplace of his ancestors, to re-elect the Mongol Great Khan, and that the lords of the four khanates all wanted to ascend to the throne in order to become orthodox, so that we could take this opportunity to divide their alliances as much as possible, break them down, first weaken their power, or regain them, or let them attack each other, and then when the time comes, they can unify themselves. ”
Kublai Khan laughed and said, "My lord, whether they come or not, we will all be in an advantageous position." ”
Yin Tianya said unhurriedly: "That's true, but I don't think this meeting will be held." ”
Kublai Khan knew that Yin Tianya had always been a god, so he didn't ask the reason, and said, "Thank you, Lord for pointing out the fog, I know what to do." ”
Yin Tianya nodded and said, "There are variables in everything, and it should be done at the right time." Then he frowned slightly: "But the speed seems to have to speed up, in the early morning of October 26, I watched the sky, found that the Song Dynasty's life star was sudden, the original turbid and dim star suddenly shined, and my Dynasty's life star reflected each other, according to my Tianya detailed report, the 26th morning is the Song Dynasty Emperor Li Zong returned to the sky, Zhao Yu succeeded to the throne, but the Southern Dynasty Duzong Zhao Yu was also a mediocre and incompetent person, somehow he could make his life star so shining. ”
"My lord, I also know that Zhao Yu'er of the Southern Dynasty is a drunken man, and he shouldn't have such a fateful star." Kublai Khan suddenly felt a heavy feeling.
If anyone said this, Kublai Khan would not pay attention to it, but would think it was nonsense, but for Yin Tianya's words, Kublai Khan naturally would not think it was false.
Yin Tianya technique, Wu Shuangxiu, is really a shamanic genius who has not encountered for thousands of years, even when Genghis Khan was alive, he will ask for advice when encountering major problems, and his tomb is selected in accordance with the art of Yin Tianya, and later Wo Kotai, Meng Ge is also very reprinted Tianya, and Kublai Khan is to treat it as a national teacher, and called it an adult, the move of the capital is also from the calculation of Yin Tianya, Yanjing is the land of the dragon, but the mission star increases.
It's just that Yin Tianya is low-key and rarely shows up, and few people know about it in Mongolia.
"The Great Khan doesn't have to worry too much, these Song Dynasty stars have become bright and dark again, elusive, maybe it's just that Zhao Yu has just ascended the throne as the emperor, and this celestial phenomenon will appear. I think it's still man-made, the Great Khan only needs to work hard, with the sage of the Great Khan, with the might of my iron horse, he will defeat the Southern Song Dynasty, which has been decayed and declined. ”
"What the adults said is very true, I will be careful to speed up the process."
"Well, the Great Khan is good for himself. In addition, my little apprentice Boyan has finished his studies, and with a little training, he can become one of the great khans, so let him go with you to serve in the court. ”
Kublai Khan was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you, my lord, now I have another general." ”
Although Na Boyan is not very old, he has grown strong and burly, and his martial arts have been printed in the true inheritance of the world, and he is even loved by Kublai Khan. As Yin Tianya said, a few years later, Boyan became one of the two great military gods in the Mongolian army.
"My lord, the new city of Yanjing has been basically completed, and I have renamed it Zhongdu, not to mention that it will be relocated to the past, do you need to go with you?"
"Well, then we will go over together."
After Kublai Khan left, Yin Tianya thought in his heart that in the inheritance of my shamanism, the celestial phenomenon of double stars has not appeared for a long time, and the last time it seems to be more than 600 years ago, the two major life stars represented by Li Shimin and Qiu Beard Ke appeared at the same time, is this Zhao Yu and the Great Khan the same?
"Someone."
Outside the door, a man in black knelt down and said, "What do you command?" ”
"Fa Jue, pass on my oracle, and order Yang Lian Zhenjia, the high priest of the temple, and the four elders to send a detailed work, and try to find out every move of Zhao Yu in the Song Dynasty as clearly as possible, and need to monitor it for a long time, even if it is a trivial detail, you must report it to me, but without my edict, you must not act rashly."
