Chapter 393: Jade Seal Ceremony: Extreme Joy Begets Sadness (3)
Dorgon, Yue Tuo, Sahalian and others were worried about the delay in the arrival of the Mongolian tribes in Mobei. When Hong Tai came to see them, they rushed over immediately.
As soon as he entered the tent, Mrs. Hong greeted him affectionately: "Fourteenth brother, come quickly and sit here with me."
This time Dorgon subdued Ezhe and obtained the jade seal, which was the first achievement. Hong Taibai praised him highly in public, but Dorgon had no intention of taking credit, and instead gave the credit to Yue Tuo, Saha Lian, Hao
Ge and others made Hongtai and the Beile very fond of him.
After Dorgon sat down, Mrs. Hong asked him in a very kind tone: "Fourteenth brother, do you think the three tribes in Mobei can come?"
Dorgon leaned forward and yawned slightly, and then said: "My brother thought that the three tribes of Mobei would definitely come."
"So sure?" Hong Tai looked at Dorgon with a smile.
Dorgon said with certainty: "Yes, he will definitely come. My brother wrote to them in the tone of King Khan's brother, and he only invited them to participate in the celebration without making any demands on them. They had no reason to refuse.
Moreover, the return of the jade seal to the gold and the unification of Mongolia in southern Mongolia is an earth-shattering event on the grassland. Monan and northern Mongolia share the same ancestors and share weal and woe, so they cannot ignore it."
After hearing Dorgon's words, Mrs. Hong showed approval in her eyes, nodded and said: "Fourteenth brother is right, you can send more men and horses, go further forward to meet them, and report immediately if there is any movement.
"
Dorgon responded: "My brother, I will send someone again tomorrow."[
Mrs. Hong said again: "You have made great contributions during this Western Expedition. When I return to Shengjing, my brother will definitely reward you. Tell me what you want. As long as my brother has it, I will definitely reward you."
"
Dorgon said, "My brother is just doing his duty. If King Khan wants a reward, just give it to Hauge, Saharian and the others. My brother dare not take credit, and there is nothing to ask for."
"Haha, don't be proud of taking credit, okay, okay." Hong Tai laughed and nodded repeatedly to Dorgon.
After Dorgon stepped back, Hong Tai's smile froze, as if she was talking to herself or asking Fan Wencheng, "Does Dorgon really have nothing to ask for?"
Dorgon sent several groups of envoys to Monan and Mobei tribes, Sahalian and Degerei were ordered to build altars, and all banners were also preparing for grand ceremonies. The cloth and materials exchanged from Zhangjiakou trade also
Shipped back to Shenyang one after another.
The weather has started to get colder. If it were not for the Jade Seal Returning Ceremony, Hong Tai would have led his army back to Shengjing long ago.
On the fifth day of the lunar month, all the Mongolian tribes had arrived, and all matters for the ceremony were ready. Only Khalkha and Chechen tribes in Mobei Mongolia were left, and there was no news yet.
Dorgon, who was in charge of liaison, was afraid of an accident, so he sent several more groups of people to Mobei. Although Dorgon assured that the Mobei Tribe would definitely come, the delay in coming made Hong Tai anxious. What if the Mobei Tribe
If you don't come, this ceremony of returning the jade seal to gold will be a fly in the ointment.
And he also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to hold the grand ceremony to show off the strength of the Jin Kingdom. Through the grand ceremony, he would let the three tribes in Mobei see the strength of the Jin Kingdom and see the submission of the Monan Mongolian tribes to the Jin Kingdom. In the future, they would be able to surrender to Mobei without a fight.
This is called the strategy of attacking with troops. Da Jin has now unified Mongolia in Southern Mongolia and subdued Chahar. If the three tribes in Mobei come back, the entire Mongolia will be completely unified. If not, it will be really big.
Regret.
However, the sixth day of the lunar month passed again, and there was still no movement on the road to the north. Before dawn on the seventh day of the lunar month, Dorgon and Sahalian could not hold their breath. They mounted their horses and headed north again, but they still did not find Momo.
Dorgon was also dumbfounded at this time. Through Fan Wencheng, Bao Chengxian and others, he discussed whether to ask King Khan to postpone the ceremony for two days. As a result, Hong Tai decided to keep everything as usual. If the Mobei Tribunal really didn't come,
It will also be held as usual.
On the tenth day of the lunar month, as Bao Chengxian expected, it was a clear and crisp weather. In the early morning, the sun rose slowly from the horizon, and the prairie bathed in the morning light appeared even more vast and magnificent. The sun shone on people, and it also warmed them.
Very.
A high altar was built outside the big tent. On the altar, flags were flying. There was a copper tripod on the four corners of the altar, which means the four directions of the tripod. Thick yellow sacrificial incense was inserted in the tripod. It sat north and faced south.
It is Hong Tai's throne. In the center of the altar is an incense table with a tablet of the Emperor of Heaven. Below the table are the sacrifices of cattle and sheep dedicated to the Emperor of Heaven. On the east side of the altar is a gentle slope for climbing the altar. The soldiers of Zhenghuang Banner are arranged on both sides. Under the altar
It is a phalanx of Manchu Eight Banners, Mongolian Army Flags, and Han Army Flags. More than 60,000 soldiers are wearing armor, holding swords, and standing tall.
Hong Tai walked to the foot of the altar and looked to the north again unwillingly. With a bit of regret, she walked up to the altar surrounded by Zhezhe, Hailanzhu, Bumubutai, Toya and others.
At this time, Dorgon's excited shouts were heard in the distance: "King Khan, King Khan, they are coming, they are coming!" [
coming?!
Hong Tai was startled, stopped and looked north, and saw a large group of people from the north galloping towards this direction.
Thank God, God bless, it’s finally here!
"Hurry up and follow Ben Khan to greet him!"
Because she was too excited, Mrs. Hong almost fell down. Jierhalang, Azige, Dergelei, Zhezhe, Bumubutai and other Fujin followed closely behind.
When the two sides came closer, the three Khans of Tuxietu Khan, Zhasak Khan, and Chechen Khan from the three tribes in Mobei dismounted and walked towards Hongtai under the guidance of Dorgon. The three of them put their right hands on their chests and shouted to
Hong Tai said: "The sun on the grassland shines brightly, and the great name of the Great Khan of the Jin Dynasty is famous all over the world. To the wise Khan we admire day and night, I wish you a long life!"
Hong Taizhen also returned the greeting: "All the brothers in the big family are gathered together, but the three khans are far away. Today, the three noble khans traveled thousands of miles to join the alliance. From then on, the brotherly friendship will be unforgettable for a lifetime!"
After returning the gift, Mrs. Hong took another step forward and greeted the three Khans with hugs, which made the three Khans of Mobei even more cordial and favorable.
The Beile of Mongolian Mongolia also came forward to greet them one by one, and the three khans discovered that four women in Mongolian costumes were standing next to Hongtai.
Tuxietu Khan didn't know who these four women were, so he asked: "Wise Tiancong Khan, do you know who these are?"
Hong Tai smiled and said to Zhezhe and the others: "Zhezhe, why don't you lead everyone to pay homage to the Great Khan?"
So Zhezhe, Hailanzhu, Bumubutai, Toya, and all the Mongolian Fujins brought by Beile in the army came forward one by one to greet and introduce each other. They were all Mongolians.
Tushetu Khan was a little surprised that the wives of the Jin Kingdom Khan and Beile were both Mongolians. He curiously asked Hong Taidao: "Why are the Jin Kingdom Khan and Zhong Beile's Fujin both Mongolians?"
