The 704th Rule

In the middle of April of the sixth year of Chongzhen, the sun was just right.

Yang Chengying was the leader of the Mongolian right-wing tribes at the Jining Conference.

Ordos Jinong Echen and Tumut Ministry's left and right Zasak Guluge and Hang Gao all participated in the meeting.

These Mongol chiefs were all gorgeously dressed and wore status-revealing accessories and talked to other tribal leaders.

The scene was very lively.

Yang Chengying waited for them to chat for a while before giving Dorzidarhan a look.

Dolzidarhan understood, and coughed heavily.

Only then did the leaders realize that there was a meeting and returned to their seats.

Inside the big tent, there was silence.

Yang Chengying said with a smile: "I know you have endless words, when I finish speaking, hold the Naadam Conference, everyone can indulge in joy." ”

The faces of all the leaders were nervous, and they were all worried that Yang Chengying would be angry.

After listening to the translation, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and smiled on their faces.

The Naadam Congress has a long history and is said to have started during the reign of Genghis Khan.

Originally, according to the old rules, it should be the fourth day of June every year.

But Yang Chengying had something to arrange in person, so he advanced it to April.

After that, as is customary, it was chosen in June.

Maybe next year, it's the all-Mongolia Naadam conference.

And the venue will be very far away.

"First things first, about the temple."

Yang Chengying said: "Private people are never allowed to build temples, and your family temples will also be demolished." ”

As soon as they heard that the temple was going to be demolished, the leaders of the tribes looked at each other with their eyes wide open.

Mongolian tribes believe in Buddhism, where to worship Buddha without a temple?

Hey, Yang Chengying thought of it intimately.

He declared: "After that, all the temples on the grassland, only the temples with the permission of Liaodong Town can continue to open." ”

It is equivalent to the temple has also become an official temple, a grassland version of the salt and iron monopoly.

"Venerable Lord Jinglu, we dare not object to what you say."

One of the leaders had the audacity to say: "However, there are currently only two temples on the grassland with your permission, one is Dazhao Temple, and the other is a temple far away in Chengde.

It's too far away, and it's not easy for us to come and go. ”

"Therefore, I have built a temple in Jining, and you can also come to Jining to worship the Buddha in the future."

Yang Chengying responded to him.

When he heard this, he hurriedly got up and saluted Yang Chengying: "Jinglu, our Ordos area is vast, can we have a temple?" ”

"Well...... this," Yang Chengying pretended to hesitate.

He glanced at the other leaders, and all the leaders came out one after another to ask collectively.

Yang Chengying said: "Since you all want to build the temple, I have no objection. But you have to promise one thing. ”

"Please give me some command!" E-Chan said.

"Anyone who goes to the temple to practice has to get the degree of Liaodong Town."

Yang Chengying said: "Each portion of the rice is at least fifty taels of silver. A certain amount of silver was escorted to Jining and handed over to Guo Zhaoji for storage. ”

When they heard this, their eyes widened.

What suffocates them is still to come.

"All the money donated to the temple is divided into three parts. One is left for the temple to sustain life, one is handed over to you, and the rest is transported to Jining. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.

He frowned at first, but suddenly stretched his eyebrows, and responded: "Jingluo, my subordinates will definitely handle this matter." ”

"If you dare to do anything in my share, or detain other tribes, it won't be good."

Yang Chengying knew what Er Luchen had in mind and took the vaccine in advance.

"How dare your subordinates mess around." Eluchen said with a weak heart.

At this time, a tribal leader stepped forward: "Sutra, in this case, the children of poor families will not be able to feel the Dharma." ”

"It's the same when he practices at home, so why bother going to the temple."

Yang Chengying knows too well what the temple is all about, "Practicing and cultivating the mind, the skin is all external, and it is the same everywhere." ”

"This ......" the tribal leaders were a little helpless.

"People in the world say that only by practicing devotely in this life can we attain reincarnation in the next life. There are many ways to be devotional, not just in the temple. ”

Yang Chengying's tone was very gentle, but the murderous intent revealed in his eyes was something that others could not ignore.

If a place wants to be economical, it must first live water.

Don't make any money on this, turn around and send it to the temple.

The temple collected the money, which was not spent, or it was to buy land and expand the monks.

Over time, there are endless hidden dangers.

"This, omitted." "In the future, the people will make trouble because of this." ”

When poor children go to rich temples to practice, they not only bathe in the Dharma, but also get a lot of benefits.

Yang Chengying said with a smile: "If you don't have money, you can support your parents at home, learn a skill, fight with the army with a bow and arrow, or herd sheep and horses at home in exchange for food and clothing." ”

The ability of the Mongols to ride and shoot is the best in the world.

It's just that due to long-term malnutrition and the white plague, his riding and archery skills have seriously deteriorated.

Gu Luge hurriedly solemnized and retreated: "My subordinates know. ”

"When you have money in the future, you can send your children to the temple to practice."

Yang Chengying drew a big pie, "Did you all hear clearly?" ”

"Obey, observance." The leaders spoke in unison.

"The second thing is that the tribes are predominantly nomadic and often offend the territories of other tribes. There are also things such as black eating black, and embezzling the silver of weak tribes. ”

Yang Chengying said: "If you want to put an end to this, you have to start with the demarcation. After the tribes returned, they drew a map of their nomadic areas and handed them over to Jining.

After Jining sent someone to verify it, the inscription was uniformly made, and you took it back and placed it.

Whoever dares to move without authorization, or crosses the line and acts recklessly, can immediately report to Jining.

In the determination of correctness, justice will be administered.

Those tribes who committed crimes washed their necks and waited for the crusade of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry. ”

As he spoke, Yang Chengying pulled out his knife and stabbed it on the ground in front of him.

The sharp tip of the knife pierced the thick felt mat and penetrated deep into the earth.

All the leaders looked grim, and they all knew that this was not a trivial matter.

So they all said that there was no problem.

Gulug stood up, saluted, and asked, "How should the tribal leaders scattered around deal with it?" ”

"Before the stele is made, those who come to defect can be pardoned. Those who come to defect after that shall not have their pastures confiscated. ”

Yang Chengying said: "If you dare not listen to the order, you will hang his head on the Sulu ingot spear, and his subordinates will be divided according to the merits of participating in the war." ”

This is the reason why Yang Chengying only held a congress in right-wing Mongolia.

By introducing boundary pillars in right-wing Mongolia, the first is to put it into practice so that it can be perfected.

The second is to show left-wing Mongolia, especially Mongolia after serving Jin, so that they can weigh it carefully.

This laid the groundwork for the subjugation of the left-wing Mongols.

"Since everyone has no opinion, then let's make a decision."

Yang Chengying said: "Let's go, let's go out to have a Naadam conference and have fun together." ”

"Please."

The leaders waited for Yang Cheng to walk in front, and he consciously walked out of the big tent according to his status.

The grand Naadam conference is about to begin.
