"Every banquet in the world must come to an end. Your Majesty, please come back." Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso put his hands together and saluted his uncle Heshuo Prince Zheng Jierharang.
Jirharang did not dare to neglect, and quickly returned the greeting: "When the master returns to Lhasa this time, he must explain to Gushi Khan the goodwill that the Qing Emperor has towards him."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this young monk will do his best." Thirty-six-year-old Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso was dressed in monk's robes with a kind face. The entourage of 3,000 people slowly returned to Lhasa from Daigar. When they came, they were empty-handed, but when they left, they returned with a full load.
The Manchu emperor was very generous and gave many rewards, so everyone was satisfied.
Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso is not an ordinary person. He is one of the two eminent monks in Tibet. He was born in the Qiongstammer family of Qianzang and is the hereditary ruler of Shigatse.
The Manchu emperor had been plotting against him for sixteen years.
In the second year of Chongde (1637), Huang Taiji wanted to invite him to Beijing to give lectures. Later, he wrote twice to Tibet Tubai Te Khan (ie Zangba Khan): "Therefore, special envoys were sent to eminent monks to promote Buddhism."
, he also issued a special edict to the envoys to Tibet in order to "invite the holy monks": "I will go to the holy monks immediately to express my intention of inviting the holy monks." Not only did he write a letter, he also sent Master Chahan of the Karaqin tribe who was close to Manchuria.
He came to Tibet to welcome the invitation, and urged the Mongolian Tuhans to "also send people to go with them."
It’s useless. Whether he can go does not depend on the great monk himself, but on the Zangba Khan behind him. The Zangba Khan was suppressing him at the time, so naturally he would not let him go.
After Emperor Shunzhi ascended the throne, he also invited him many times. In the first year of Shunzhi (1644), he sent envoy Yilaguke Sanhu Tuketu to Tibet to welcome him, and wrote a letter to Gushi Khan informing him of the matter; in the fifth year,
In the sixth year, he sent Labugelong to Tibet to "invite you"; in the sixth year, he "said to appear in court in the summer of the Renchen year (the ninth year of Shunzhi)"; in the eighth year, he sent officials to Tibet twice more to "invite"; this time, he finally succeeded.
, "Indicate the date of departure for coming to the DPRK".
Gushi Khan felt that the Ming and Qing Dynasties were now confronting each other along the river, and he should benefit from both sides, so he agreed to go to Beijing.
It took more than half a year to walk. Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso started from Drepung Monastery and passed through Tashi Tang in Dangxiong, Kumbum Monastery in Qinghai, Jixiang New Palace (ie Tashi Kangsar), Wokexiba, Doba Rongtai,
Arriving at the land of Gen Xie.
When he arrived at Genxie, he did not leave. He put on the air of a guru and went to Shushun to govern the emperor: "The place of audience may be in Guihua City or Daiga, Fu Wei Shang Cai". It is said that Fu Wei Shang Cai
, in fact, he hoped that Emperor Shunzhi would go to the north of the Great Wall to greet him in person.
Emperor Shunzhi originally wanted to welcome him in person, but the ministers opposed it. It was not that the emperor would lose face by welcoming him in person, but that the treasury was empty. Since Zhu Hengjia occupied the south of the Yangtze River, the Qing government's fiscal revenue has decreased a lot. The emperor went to the north of the Yangtze River to welcome him in person.
, there were many people accompanying them, and the money spent was a lot. The Qing Dynasty was not what it used to be, and it couldn’t afford it.
Sony said: "This year there is a severe drought in the Huaihe River, severe floods in the north, famine in the year, and police and police everywhere. The clan is important, and it is not a lucky time for the saints to pay their respects."
Upon seeing this, Emperor Shunzhi understood that the Qing Dynasty was short of money! So he decided not to go to the north of the Great Wall to welcome him personally, but to wait for him to welcome him in person in Nanyuan after he entered Beijing. For fear that Ngawang Losang Gyatso would be unhappy, he wrote a letter
Explanation: "I sent an edict to meet you in person, but there were thieves nearby, and I heard about it from time to time. It is difficult to neglect the important affairs of the country, so I can't go."
OK, if you don't want to greet me personally, the young monk will walk slowly. So Ngawang Losang Gyatso changed from riding a horse to riding on the golden-topped yellow sedan given by Emperor Shunzhi, and walked to Beijing calmly.
Arriving at Qinghe Bridge in the northern suburbs of Beijing, Shajidala, the minister of the cleaning vassal, was greeted here by his household, as well as the directors of the four departments of etiquette, military and industry. The guests were welcomed to Nanyuan, where Emperor Shunzhi personally welcomed him and gave him a very high courtesy.
. Give banquets, give gifts, and arrange to live in the Huang Temple outside Deshengmen. One Huang Temple is not enough, so two are needed, called East and West Huang Temples, commonly known as Shuanghuang Temple. Among them, there was no West Huang Temple originally, and it was specially used for entertaining.
Built for Him.
What a Shuanghuang Temple! The temple walls are neat, the flags are flying, and the trees are thick. There is a river in front of the temple, which can be crossed by a bridge, and there are monks driving elephants by the river, giving it a "Buddha Land" atmosphere.
A few months passed and it was time to return to Lhasa.
In the 10th year of Shunzhi (1653), he "sent his master to return to the Imperial Palace of Supreme Harmony and gave him a banquet." He also ordered his uncle Heshuo and Prince Zheng Jierharang to pay a farewell visit to Qinghe. No matter how poor the national treasury was, it still prepared a banquet.
A large number of gifts were sent to Daigar by your uncle Heshuo and Prince Zheng Jierhalang.
In Daigar, the Shunzhi Emperor sent an envoy, the minister of the vassal administration, Shaji Dala, to confer him the title of "Grand Master of Ordinary Wayila Tandalai, led by the Great Benevolent Buddha of the West, who leads the world of Buddhism", and awarded him a gold book and a gold seal.
There is also a decree to enshrine Gushi Khan as "Khan of Obeying Wenyi, Minhui and Gushi".
Emperor Shunzhi ordered Shaji Dala to go to Lhasa with Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso to award the title. They said it was to award the title, but in fact it was to win over Gushi Khan to fight against the Ming Dynasty. The Emperor Shunzhi asked Gushi Khan to "serve as my screen assistant, and the editor will be awarded the title."
".
Gushi Khan was overjoyed to see that Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso had brought back so many gifts from the Qing court, many of which were firearms that he desperately needed. This trip was very fruitful!
He asked Ngawang Losang Gyatso: "Thank you for your hard work, Master! How sincere is Emperor Shunzhi?"
Ngawang Rosang Gyalsu said politely: "Gushi Tenzin Qujie (Gushi Khan), Emperor Shunzhi is very sincere. Not only did he bring you generous gifts, he also agreed that we would exchange our war horses for their firearms."<
/p>
"Yeah", Gushi Khan pinched his beard with satisfaction. In this regard, the Qing court was stronger than the Ming Dynasty. The people of the Ming Dynasty were only willing to exchange silk, tea and other supplies for their war horses. For firearms, armor and other military supplies,
The control is very strict. In the past few years, he has been expanding westward and southward, extending his power into Tianzhu (India), Nepal (Nepal) and other places. He also has to guard against the Rakshasa and the internal Junggar tribe.
A large amount of military supplies are needed.
This time I really gained a lot! It seems that I took advantage of the conflict between snipe and clam in the Ming and Qing Dynasties and profited from it. This move was right!
The Qing Dynasty has gained a lot of money, so what good things will the Ming Dynasty give itself?
When Zhu Hengjia ascended the throne, Gushi Khan did not rush to send envoys to congratulate him. He waited until nearly two years after Emperor Guangwu ascended the throne before sending his younger brother Buyan Etehuan and sixth son Dorji to the Ming Dynasty to express his congratulations.
, it’s actually blackmail.
I didn’t bring many gifts, but I did bring a proud “Certificate of Credence”.
Yes, in the letter of credence, although Gushi Khan professed his vassalage to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he did not profess his vassalage to the Ming Dynasty. He believed that the relationship between himself and the Ming Dynasty was an equal country-to-country relationship. Since it was a two-nation theory, he wrote to Guangwu
The emperor's letter is naturally the "State Letter".
In fact, Gushi Khan now has a strong army and horses. If it were not for the generous emperor of the Qing Dynasty and the benefits of being a minister, he would have stopped surrendering to the Qing Dynasty. As a seventy-one-year-old political veteran, he doesn't care about any bullshit face. If the Ming Dynasty
There are many benefits, and it is okay to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. As long as it helps improve the national strength of the Khoshote Khanate, kowtow is really not a big deal.
However, Emperor Guangwu of the Ming Dynasty was too stingy, and there was little benefit to be gained from surrendering to him, so he simply regarded himself as the two countries and wrote a proud letter of credence.
"I heard that the Three Sovereigns and the Five Emperors are all unified. Is it true that only the Ming Dynasty has a master, but Mongolia has no king? The universe is vast, and each country maintains its own territory; the universe is vast, how can one master be the dictatorship? The one who covers the world is not the world of one clan, but
The mountains and rivers of all nations. Genghis Khan, his ancestor, destroyed tens of thousands of countries, built tens of thousands of cities, and sealed borders for tens of millions of miles. How could he be weaker than the Ming Dynasty?
The land in the west of the desert is vast and boundless. Even though I am stupid, I can control hundreds of thousands of strings. How can I use it as a battle? How can it be invincible? Now that I have heard that Your Majesty has ascended the throne and shown the benevolence of Tang, Wu, Yao and Shun, guests from all over the world are congratulating me. The special envoy is here
Come, to build a good alliance. Since ancient times, virtuous kings have valued peace. Stop wars and trade, trade each other's supplies, avoid the devastation of life, and save the hardships of the common people. This is a blessing for the world. It is not only beneficial to Moxi, but also to the Ming Dynasty. Full of sincerity.
, bow your head and bow, and be prepared to listen to it."
When Zhu Hengjia saw this "letter of credence", his nose almost turned out of breath. How dare you, Gushi Khan, to show off your force to me. You can control hundreds of thousands of strings and hit them whenever you want. Who is afraid of whom?
You are angry, but you cannot fight. If you fight, you will fall into the Manchu's scheme. Now the national policy of the Ming Dynasty is to first expedition to the north to deal with the Manchu and then to the west to conquer Mongolia in the desert. Therefore, Gushi Khan must be stabilized.
Zhu Hengjia summoned ministers such as Guan Shouzhen, Sun Jinding, He Wuzou, Zheng Feng, and Liu Maoxia to discuss it, and finally decided to deal with it with two methods: first, write a tit-for-tat edict to refute Gushi Khan; second, give Gushi Khan a gift in return.
, people gave gifts in the name of congratulating the new emperor of Ming Dynasty on his accession to the throne. How can we call ourselves a country of etiquette if we don’t return gifts?
As for how much gift to repay, Emperor Guangwu had an edict. According to the value of the gift sent by Gushi Khan, the equivalent gift should be returned. The officials of the Concierge House calculated that it was only about one thousand taels of silver. Some gifts worth one thousand taels were returned.
The cloth is in trouble.
As for the edict to Gushi Khan, it was drafted quickly by Huang Zongyi, Wang Fuzhi, and Gu Yanwu, a group of imperial literati.
??
The emperor issued an edict to Mongolian Gushi Khan:
I respectfully acknowledge
The destiny of heaven governs the nine states and the four seas. All the sun, moon, mountains and rivers must obey my orders. Zi'er Gushi Khan separatized the desert west. He falsely talked about the strength of the army, spoke too wildly and arrogantly, acted like a frog at the bottom of a well, and looked up at the sky in the mirror.
How foolish is it? When heaven sends out its murderous intention, it moves the stars to change places; when the earth sends out its murderous intention, dragons and snakes move on the land; when man sends out its murderous intention, the heaven and earth repeat themselves. When a small country wants to start a war, the celestial dynasty has strategies to defend itself against its enemies. Thesis contains articles by Confucius and Mencius.
On Wu, Sun Wu Taolue. When we meet in front of Helan Mountain and chat about games, there is nothing to be afraid of!
However, God has the virtue of good life. When the war breaks out and the guilty master is punished, all the jade and stone are destroyed. Why do your people deserve to be so poisoned? I have pity on you for a long time, but it is not easy. I can't bear the two places fighting each other, harming the heaven and the world.
.Now that you have arrived in Moxi, it is appropriate for you to have the title of "Dai Huang En", to practice virtue and enjoy yourself for the past few years, and to celebrate your young son. This will be your eternal treasure.
You abide by the covenant, appease the barbarians, and do not cause trouble. This is why you follow my will and answer the heart of heaven. If you break the covenant and break the covenant, I will raise an army that will overwhelm the country.
Heaven has learned from Kong Yan that Wang Zhang is outstanding and Qinzai, hence the edict.
Respect Heaven and Diligent People
March 6, the second year of Guangwu
Treasure
??
After drafting the edict, he sent envoys to Lhasa to promulgate the edict.
Zhu Hengjia suddenly remembered that when he read history books before traveling, the emperors of the Qing Dynasty liked to have the Mongolians call themselves Taihan. For example, Huang Taiji was Bogda Chechen Khan; Shunzhi was Eyelzasak Khan; and Kangxi was Enhe Amgulang.
Khan; Yongzheng was Nayilal Tutob Khan; Qianlong was Tengrit Gugeqi Khan?? Even Puyi made a Havatu Yousi Khan.
"No, I also want these Mongols to respect me as the Great Khan." Zhu Hengjia shouted to the envoy: "Go and tell Gushi Khan to respect me as the Proud Riqilang Tengger Khan (Cosmos Sky
sweat)".
