"Okay, Hu Zhigong, Guan Siqiu has done a great job! I will reward them heavily!"
News came urgently from eight hundred miles away: Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso had surrendered obediently and was heading to Nanjing. Zhu Hengjia was so happy that he even praised Hu Zhigong and Guan Siqiu for his ability to handle affairs.
If the tiger leaves the mountain and the dragon escapes from the sea, there is nothing to fear.
However, in order to win the hearts and minds of the people in the snowy region, face projects still have to be done. I heard that the great monk went to Beijing to pay homage to Emperor Shunzhi, and Emperor Shunzhi built Shuanghuang Temple specifically for him to live in, teach Dharma, and lecture on scriptures. Well,
I also built two temples for him, one in the east and one in the west, so that he could preach for me happily. As for the address, I chose it inside the Taiping Gate of Nanjing. Peace, peace, peace in the world.
In order to show the world that he was thirsty for Buddha and looked forward to the master's early arrival in Beijing, Zhu Hengjia wrote a poem to Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso. By coincidence, the newspaper was published to let the world know about it. "Looking forward to the monk's arrival in Jinling"
The master came by chance and traveled thousands of miles.
The road is far away and the snow is far away, but the clouds are low and the boat is light.
The vast river is in Zen silence, and the Sanskrit sounds can be heard in Jinling.
Life is a lighthouse, illuminating my eyes.
Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso was still on the way to Nanjing when he received this poem from Emperor Guangwu. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, since you want to act, the monk will accompany you to act.
I brushed my pen and wrote a poem back to Zhu Hengjia:
"Enter Jinling to report to the Holy Lord"
The emperor's holy grace is so great that he summons little monks from the snowy land.
When you go to Beijing to find a close friend, why fear the thousands of layers of road.
In the dead of night, I can’t sleep, leaning against the withered vine against the moon.
Put aside love and hate, everything is just a mote of dust.
On the surface, the two people flirted with each other and had a very good relationship. In fact, Ngawang Losang Gyatso was controlled by Zhu Hengjia in Nanjing and could not leave Nanjing for the rest of his life.
??
At that time, Zhu Hengjia told Hu Zhigong two things: first, to force Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso to come to Nanjing as a hostage, which was wrong, because he promoted Buddhism; second, to obtain the head of Dorji, a remnant of the Heshuote tribe.
The first thing, Hu Zhigong did it beautifully; the second thing, there has been no sign yet, and Dorji's head is still on Dorji's neck.
This Dorji is the deputy khan of the Heshuote Khanate. He has always been resourceful and has great prestige among the people of the Heshuote tribe. If he does not die, there will be trouble in the future.
Emperor Guangwu was an eternal sage. Most of the sage's actions were ruthless, and what he emphasized was to eradicate the roots without leaving any future troubles. So, he once again sent someone to inform Hu Zhigong: "I heard that Hu Chief Dorji fled to Hami. This man is quite a bit.
If I don’t get rid of it, I might cause trouble in the future. You should get rid of it for me."
When he saw Emperor Guangwu's instructions, Hu Zhigong couldn't help but get a big headache. In fact, he had tried his best. In order to get the head of Dorji, he used hard and soft tactics on Hami King Muhanmetixia. On the one hand, he sent the general Hu Guozhu and the deputy general Jian to join the army in Nanha.
Ten Thousand and the Hami border were exerting pressure; on the other hand, they sent envoys to persuade Muhammetisha to offer Dorji's head as soon as possible to avoid damaging the peace.
However, this Muhanmaitixia ate the weight and insisted that Dorji was not in Hami.
Hu Zhigong had no choice but to order Hu Guozhu to continuously create friction at the border and flex his muscles to King Hami.
Hami Palace is elegantly decorated. In the meeting hall, a bright, handsome and resolute young man is sitting in the middle, his whole body is full of nobility.
"Prince, I just received the news that the Ming army suddenly dispatched and harvested the crops outside Dahemu City; a group of their cavalry broke into Ravchok City and killed three of our troops. You have to make an idea. If this continues,
The people don’t dare to leave the city." Hami King Muhammetisha reported to the young man respectfully.
Hami belongs to the Yarkand Khanate, and this young man is Yulbals, the son of Yarkand Abdullah Khan.
Abdullah Khan of the Yarkand Khanate was a genius of a generation, with great martial arts skills, and was known as the "Lord of the Renaissance" of the Yarkand Khanate.
When he was young, this man was just a small force in the Yarkand Khanate's Turpan Chali area. He was not afraid of difficulties and conquered the east and west. With the support of Hezhuo Shadi and some secrets, he won the victory in the ninth year of Chongzhen (1636).
) reunited the Khanate and ascended to the position of Great Khan.
However, the power of the Khanate, which had been in war for a long time, declined. The princes from all over the country supported their troops and respected themselves. The powerful ministers acted in accordance with the situation. It has become a habit for religious forces to control government affairs. The Great Khan did not follow this trick and was very courageous as soon as he succeeded to the throne.
He mobilized central and local officials and expelled a group of dignitaries from the previous dynasty. Those who disobeyed were killed. More than 200 opposition leaders who opposed him were executed in Kashgar, and hundreds of people were executed in Yarkand. They were bloody.
The butcher knife stabilized his position.
Then, the great Abdullah Khan began to conquer surrounding countries and tribes, expand his power, defeated the old enemy Gilijis in Aksela, and stabilized the northwest border of the khanate. However, this great Khan liked to plunder
, foreign expeditions only focused on robbing slaves and wealth, and did not set up officials to govern the conquered areas for a long time. Therefore, although they won many battles, they failed to expand the territory of the Khanate and enhance the national strength of the Khanate.
Today, the great Abdullah Khan is old and is in a bad situation, with internal and external difficulties.
Externally, he encountered a strong enemy, the Junggar Khanate. Hutaiji Sengge of the Junggar tribe was also a heroic leader. After his father's death, he subdued his brothers and controlled the tribes north of the Tianshan Mountains, and then continued to invade the south of the Tianshan Mountains.
area, deep into the Keriya (today's Yutian County) area. Abdullah Khan led a large army to conquer, but was defeated in the Uledus Grassland. The Junggar Khanate became the biggest threat to the Yerqiang Khanate.
Internally, he encountered an evil obstacle from his previous life, his own son Ulebals. Behind the father-son dispute was the dispute between the Black Mountain and White Mountain factions that had troubled the Khanate for many years.
At that time, the "holy descendant" Mahatoum Azamul came to preach in the Khanate. After his death, his two sons founded the White Mountain Sect and the Black Mountain Sect respectively. The two sects actually did not have much difference in doctrine. The only difference is that
: The Baishan sect wears white hats and recites silently when reciting scriptures, also known as the "silent recitation sect"; while the Black Mountain sect wears black hats and reads aloud when reciting scriptures, also known as the "reading aloud sect".

Just this difference has led to a life-and-death fight. The old Khan King Abdullaha belongs to the Black Mountain Faction and is supported by Erdantesh, the leader of the Mongolian Huit tribe in the Desert; while the traitor Yulibals belongs to the White Mountain Faction.
, received the support of Oqiltu Khan of the Mongolian Heshuote tribe in the Desert, and Huitai Jisengge of the Junggar tribe.
The young prince has the support of the two powerful tribes of Mongolia and Mongolia on the outside; he has the help of his teacher, Baishan Sect and Zhuo Yusufu on the inside. His power is getting stronger and stronger, and he wants to expel his old father and become a Khan on his own.
, with the Baishan Sect as the state religion.
Hami King Muhammetisha and Prince Ulebals’ teacher Yu Sufu are related to each other, so they naturally belong to the Baishan faction.
After listening to Muhammetisha's report about the Ming army's unusual movements, Prince Yulebals looked at Yu Sufu for help, "Master, the Ming army has repeatedly invaded our territory. It seems that they will not give up until they get the head of Dorji."
.What should we do?"
"The prince must not agree. If he kills Dorji, he will offend Heshuote's Eqil Tuchechen Khan (also known as the Chechen Khan). He has always supported our Baishan faction," Yu Sufu said firmly.
Earthly said.
"Prince, Dayan Eqil, the great khan of the Heshuote tribe, is dead; Dorji has also become a bereaved dog; Eqil Tuchchen Khan, who remains in the Tianshan Mountains, has not many people in his tribe, so he cannot give us much support.
.Why don’t you cut off Dorji’s head and present it to the Ming Emperor? The Ming Dynasty is more powerful than Heshuote. If we can get the support of the Ming Dynasty, it will be easy to expel the Black Mountain Sect and control Yarkand City.” Muhan, King of Hami
Maitixia was in great pain from being harassed by the Ming army these days. He didn't care about his old friendship and wanted to sell Dorji to protect himself.
"No, although Oqiltu Khan is not as powerful as the Ming Dynasty, he has always firmly supported our Baishan faction. Although the Ming Dynasty is strong, it has always been cunning. By killing Dorji, I am afraid that I will offend the Oqiltu Khan and not
If we can get the support of the Ming Dynasty, wouldn't we be destroying our foundation and losing more than we gain?" Yu Sufu objected again.
Should he kill or protect Dorji? Serious differences arose between the two in-laws.
Seeing that they were quarreling fiercely, Ulebars suddenly smiled, with peach blossoms on his handsome face, "You don't want to argue anymore. The Han people have a saying: 'A strange thing can live in.' This Dorji, in your eyes
It is trouble, but in the eyes of this prince, it is a rare commodity. Send someone to Lhasa to find Hu Duxian and ask him: If we kill Dorji, how much benefit will the Ming Dynasty give us?"
