Chapter 254: The Regent is finally decided

Diao Ce's death shook Tubo, and Zhuoer Beizan quickly took action to hunt and arrest the disciples of the Crazy Shadow Sect in Tubo. He is iron-faced and selfless, and he will not let go of any disciple involved in the Crazy Shadow Sect. Some disciples who have committed lesser crimes, Zhuo Er Beizan is also not hesitant to give leniency, as long as they are willing to mend their ways, they can be released.

The task of arresting fell on the shoulders of Shang Jieyunzan, he was an experienced and sophisticated general, and he personally handled the matter, and Zhuoer Beizan was very relieved. After Shang Jieyunzan received the order, he began a long journey of arrest with a group of elite soldiers.

However, in the land of bowl peace, Shang Jieyunzan encountered an accident. He was found dead in a barren grassland, in a strange death, as if a mysterious force had descended from the sky and strangled him in the wilderness.

When the news came, Zhuo Beizan lamented in his heart, but he knew that he couldn't stop because of this. As a result, he promoted another general, Dorje Pubu, to take over the position of Shang Jieyun Tsang. Dorje Pubre was resolute and tough, and quickly dealt with all the remaining disciples of the Crazy Shadow Sect.

The entire operation lasted a month, much longer than expected. During this period, Dorje Pubu and Zhuoer Beizan fought side by side to deal with various emergencies. In the end, this internal crisis in Tibet was calmed down, and the disciples of the Crazy Shadow Sect were wiped out.

However, for the cause of Shang Jieyunzan's death, Taihao has always been obsessed. He clearly knew that within Tibet, Shang Jieyunzan was the most important official in Zuren Xide's camp, and his death was tantamount to extinguishing a beacon of light, making the already complicated political situation even more confusing. And Dorje Pubu, who took over his position, was an official of the Zhuor Beizan camp. It's like two huge political forces competing silently, making it impossible to predict what will happen next.

In the Tibetan court, there were endless criticisms about the cause of Shang Jieyunzan's death. These sounds flutter like autumn leaves, falling around every corner. Some voices questioned whether Shang was the result of a political conspiracy, while others were convinced that it was an unfortunate accident. However, no matter what kind of sound it is, it is like a flickering lamp in the dark night, making it impossible to peek into the full picture of the truth.

With the death of Shang Jieyunzan, Zuren Xide felt that he had completely lost control of the military situation in Tibet. His heart was like a lake blown by an autumn wind, rippling layer upon layer. He is no longer the regent of Tibet, without the aura of power, he feels like a floating leaf, lost his support. He knew that from now on, he would no longer be in the political arena of Tibet, and his ideals and ambitions would also disappear with the wind.

We gently flick the hourglass of time and let the hour hand go backwards for half a month. At this special moment, Zhuoer Beizan is leading a group of warriors to launch a vigorous arrest operation, targeting the disciples of the Crazy Shadow Sect. And at this tense and exciting moment, Taihao finally received a letter from the Eastern Empire.

This letter was written by Emperor Xuancheng himself, and the handwriting was dignified and solemn. Tai Hao carefully unfolded the letter paper, and his eyes fell on the only word - burial! The words seemed to contain endless deep meanings, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Taihao's heart moved, and he immediately understood what the emperor meant. This is the emperor's will to agree to bury the crown prince Xuanbao in Tibet. This decision is undoubtedly significant and solemn, and it means that Prince Xuanbao will rest in peace in this mysterious land, forever closely connected to this land.

Taihao felt a complex emotion in his heart, feeling both relieved and a little regretful. Prince Xuanbao is the hope for the future of the Eastern Empire, and his death is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the entire empire. However, the emperor's decision was also out of deep nostalgia and respect for the crown prince, hoping that he could find eternal peace in the sacred land of Tibet.

Tai Hao conveyed the news to Princess Diaotang, but she did not make a decision immediately, but said to Tai Hao after pondering for a moment: "Now that Tubo still lacks a regent, and the Great Minister of Zhuoer Beizan is busy hunting down the disciples of the Crazy Shadow Sect. Therefore, Xuanbao's funeral must be solemn and dignified so as not to cause unnecessary disputes. We cannot act hastily, and we must wait for the moment when Prime Minister Zhuo Beizan and all DPRK and Chinese officials will be able to participate in this. ”

In this way, it was not until Zhuoer Beizan purged the disciples of the Crazy Shadow Sect in Tubo that a grand funeral was held for the crown prince Xuanbao. It was a solemn and solemn ceremony, and all the Tibetan officials attended the funeral. Their faces were filled with grief and pain, and they felt sorry for the young man's death. Coming to this funeral is also the best way for them to commemorate Prince Xuanbao.

In the cat world, there are a variety of funeral forms, they carry an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, depicting a magnificent picture of the cat people and nature, life and death.

The form of funeral in Tibet is like a thick history book, which contains customs and beliefs that have been passed down from generation to generation. Cremation, a ritual in which a body is placed on a fire and burned to ashes, symbolizes the cycle of life and the process of regeneration. Stone burial, on the other hand, is the placement of the body in a boulder, which, over time, absorbs the breath of the deceased as if it became their eternal abode. Tombs, on the other hand, place the deceased in carefully excavated graves to show respect and remembrance for the deceased. Sky burial, where the body is placed on the top of a high mountain and allowed to be pecked by birds in the sky, is a ritual filled with reverence and respect for nature.

In addition, there are various forms such as tower burial, spiritual burial, tree burial, and water burial. Tower burial, a supreme honor, is usually enjoyed only by living Buddhas. It places the body in the relics pagoda, symbolizing that the deceased has transcended the constraints of the world and merged into the vastness of the universe. The funeral is to place the body in the spiritual pagoda for future generations to pay homage and worship. Tree burial and water burial are the placement of the body under a tree or into a river, allowing the power of nature to purify the soul of the deceased, and also implying the cycle and regeneration of life.

In this mysterious Tibetan kingdom, Xuanbao, the crown prince from the Eastern Empire, became a special example. He did not choose an ordinary tomb or stone burial, but chose a tower burial, the highest level of the Tibetan funeral form. This choice undoubtedly shows great respect and respect for Xuanbao. His body was placed in a solemn stupa of relics, as if it had become an eternal symbol, and his wisdom and courage would forever remain in the hearts of the people.

In the deep night, Princess Diaotang stared at the topographic map of the territory of Tibet with a lot of emotion. Now that she had cleared all the disciples of the Crazy Shadow Sect and buried the remains of the crown prince, she felt that it was time for the Tubo government and opposition to settle down and identify a regent. This minister, she already had a clear choice in her heart, he should be the pillar of Tibet, able to lead the country to prosperity.

However, the day before the election of the regent by drawing lots, a delicate atmosphere enveloped the Tibetan court. A news came from the ears of Princess Diaotang that Nima Sanji, the minister in charge of supervising the officials in Tibet, had been reported by Kishimoto Desi Songtsan in his camp for corruption and bribery. The news was like a pebble thrown into the lake, causing ripples.

Nima Sanji has always been the mainstay of the Tibetan court, and his integrity and resourcefulness have earned him the respect of many officials in the court. However, Desi Songtsam's report instantly cast a shadow over his image. North and Chinese officials are beginning to wonder if Nima Sanji is really as noble as he appears.

On the day of the election of the Regent, Zuren Xide presented a recital to Zampu and Princess Diaotang in a dignified and dignified manner. He sincerely stated that he was too old to devote himself to the government as he had in the past, so he decided to formally submit a request to the court to return to his hometown.

Taihao knows that this decision is not a rash move. Shang Jieyunzan's bizarre death was a huge blow to Zuren Xide, which was something known to both the government and the public. For a veteran of the Three Dynasties, it is undoubtedly a wise choice to withdraw from this rapidly changing and treacherous officialdom. However, in this unpredictable political maelstrom, it is not easy to walk away with a lifetime of glory and dignity.

Princess Diaotang was well aware of Zu Renxid's contribution and status, and she accepted his request with an attitude of appreciation and respect. In order to show her respect for the patriarch of the Three Dynasties, she bestowed a rich reward on Zuren Xide as a guarantee for his retirement.

In a solemn and lively ceremony, Zuren Xide accepted the reward of Princess Diaotang and expressed his deep gratitude to the imperial court. His exit was a pinnacle of his political career, and his departure also symbolized the changes and changes of this era.

Under the watchful eye of the Tibetan officials, Zuren Xide left the court where he had served all his life with glory and dignity. His figure disappeared at the door of the palace, leaving only memories and admiration in one place.

Zuren Xide can be regarded as retreating with his whole body, while Nima Sanji is destined not to retreat with his whole body. Princess Diaotang ordered Lobsang Tenzin, the deputy minister of Tubo, to investigate and deal with the corruption case of Nima Sanji. Lobsang Tenzin was a smart and capable official, and he was also an official who belonged to the camp of Dhorbeizan. Let him investigate the case of Nima Sanji, doomed Nima Sanji to be completely denied the position of regent. Even though Nima Sanji never really wanted to be the regent, the ruthlessness of fate made it impossible for him to escape.

Due to Zuren Xide's retirement, Nima Sanji is burdened with the case. So, at this moment of power transfer, Zhuoer Beizan, the peerless prime minister, was like an eagle striking the sky, and won the position of the regent in one fell swoop. Without the cumbersome election process, he was already the right person for the post. His fame, like autumn water, has long left a deep trace in the hearts of the people.

Princess Diaotang walked to the front desk in person, her bright eyes flashing with wisdom and courage. She announced in a voice as crisp as the morning birdsong: "From today onwards, the Minister of Zhuo Beizan will be the regent, and he will be responsible for assisting Zampuraba Dorjee in governing the Tibetan Kingdom. Her voice echoed in the palace, and every word was like a seed, deeply implanted in the heart of every official.

Then, like a raging river, the officials saluted the regent in unison. Their faces were filled with admiration and respect, and their hearts were filled with anticipation and hope. Because they know that this new regent will lead them to a more prosperous future.
