He didn't believe that he was the reincarnation of Buddha. Based on his lifetime experience of deceiving him, Yunxi could not deceive him these two times. Although he couldn't see the benefits of killing him, he would never follow the method that Yunxi just said.
Do.
Yunxi tried to persuade him and said seriously: "Let me tell the truth to the master. Although I have a pair of naked eyes, they are different. I can see that Master Fangzheng must be the reincarnation of Buddha, just like Wudang Master Zhang is the reincarnation of the Buddha."
Just like a real person who has achieved success in cultivation."
"But people in the world are so ignorant. Even I can't make people believe me by saying such things with bare teeth. So I came up with this method to prove that the master is the reincarnation of Buddha."
After listening to Yunxi's firm words and looking at Yunxi's confident expression, Fangzheng became confused: 'Could it be that I am really the reincarnation of the Buddha? Could the emperor really be able to see what is different about the reincarnation of the Buddha? There is no need for the emperor to deceive like this.
I.'
Fang Zheng was puzzled. If the emperor wanted to find an excuse to kill him, what excuse could he find? Not only was he being talked about now, he would even be recorded in his own diary, and it would be passed down to future generations forever.
Stains that cannot be washed away.
When he was hesitating, Yunxi said again: "Master, you don't want to do such a thing? That's all, I also know that what I said is too sensational, and most people can't believe it." But then he talked about a monk named Kong Kong: "I
I heard that although Master Kongkong is only in his thirties, he is profound in Buddhism. Such a person should contribute to the Buddhism. I want him to go to Wala to preach."
"Your Majesty, this poor monk is willing to prove it according to the method your Majesty said." Fang Zheng hesitated for a moment, and finally said with an expression of "If I don't go to hell, who will?"
Vukong is his disciple, his favorite disciple who will pass on the mantle in the future. When alive, everyone hopes to pass on his career. The monk has no children, so he places his career on his apprentice. If Vukong died in the place where he preached
, how can he pass on his career? Two evils, he would rather pay with his life. Anyway, he is already over sixty, and it is hard to say how many years he can live. What's more,
‘It’s not certain that he will die. The emperor’s words are too strange.’ Fang Zheng thought.
Hearing his last answer, Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief. This matter cannot be accomplished without the cooperation of a prestigious Buddhist. Now the most prestigious Buddhist in the Ming Dynasty is Fang Zheng of Shaolin. With his consent, the matter will be accomplished.
.
Yunhe coughed a few times and was about to give a few more instructions. But at this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the tent: "Your Majesty, urgent report from Yiwu! Urgent report from Jiayuguan!"
Hearing the word 'urgent report', Yunxi had a bad feeling in his heart and hurriedly said to Fang Zheng: "Although I have decided to prove that the master is the reincarnation of Buddha, this matter should not be taken lightly. You go back and prepare first and wait for me.
orders."
Fang Sheng agreed, bowed and stepped back.
Yunxi took a breath, drank another cup of tea, and ordered: "Send them in!"
Soon, two people wearing Ming Dynasty military uniforms walked in and knelt down to salute. One of them was wearing the uniform of a messenger, and the other was wearing the military uniform of a fifth-grade Qianhu.
Yunxi brought their report over to read and asked, "What happened?"
"Your Majesty," Na Qianhu said while kowtowing: "On April 22, Yili forced King Shamechagan of Lihan to flee without a fight, leading hundreds of thousands of tribesmen to go south, and most of them fled from Urumqi to Tiemen.
Korla, south of Guan, near Bosten Lake.”
"On April 27th, His Highness returned to Yiwu City and ordered to mobilize the people of the whole city to defend Yiwu City. Left Prime Minister Song Sheng and Right Prime Minister Gao Xiang advised His Highness to stay away temporarily, but His Highness was determined to coexist with the city and never leave.
Yiwu City just sent people to send His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the other princes to Jiayuguan. The Princess and the Queen did not leave either, and guarded the city with their Highnesses."
"On the same day, the city of Urumqi was captured by the soldiers of the Samarkand Kingdom. Then on the second day, his country's forward named Sarha went south with 150,000 cavalry. On the first day of May, he arrived at the city of Turpan, leaving 30,000 cavalry in Turpan.
The remaining 120,000 horses marched eastward and headed straight for Yiwu City."
"On the eighth day of May, Salha led his troops to Yiwu City and immediately surrounded the city. Before the siege, only Shaanxi Dusi and Shaanxi Xingdusi's 70,000 troops entered the city, and there were only 90,000 troops in the city; and on May 5
We dispatched 500,000 troops in this battle, and surrendered some Semu people and Mongols, for a total force of nearly 550,000!"
"When I left the city of Yiwu, I heard that Timur had led most of his troops to Yiwu. I sincerely request your majesty to order the soldiers of all ministries to speed up the pace, rush to relieve the siege of Yiwu, and rescue His Highness and the Queen!"
"What!" Yunxi said loudly after hearing this: "The situation has reached such a point!"
After a pause, he added: "Let's just settle the matter on the eighth day of May. Today is already the twentieth day of May. Why are the previous matters reported to me today!"
"Your Majesty, there are remaining Semu people in Shazhou and other places in the northwest. Timur sent people to collude with them. He also colluded with some Westerners and Mongols to intercept and kill the messengers south of Xingxing Gorge and north of Jiayuguan. Your Highness sent out
There were three groups of men and horses, but there was no reply at all. Feeling that something was wrong, I sent 300 cavalry to escort the minister south. When passing through Liuyuan, I encountered more than 500 people who wanted to intercept and kill them. After a fierce battle, the minister and others broke out of the encirclement and rushed to Jiayuguan Pass.
"
"Damn it! I knew these lustful people couldn't be trusted, but I didn't listen to Shang Bing's advice. Now it's better!" Yunxi said angrily. At first, he exiled all the lusty people in the north who believed in Tianfang Sect and Cross Sect to Shang Bing.
After Bing took control of Bing, Shang Bing sent Semu people to various places to build cities and roads in order to maximize efficiency. Yunxi felt that it was inappropriate at the time and tried to persuade him twice, but Shang Bing did not listen, so Yunxi could only
That's all, who knew something like this would happen today.
"His Highness also regrets it, especially after people who fled back from Urumqi said that the city of Urumqi was also migrated from the Central Plains. The Semu people colluded with Timur and caused the city to fall. In order to make up for the lost sheep, His Highness has ordered on the first day of May that all the people who migrated from the Central Plains should be moved to Urumqi.
Those who come with lustful eyes will be put to death."
"Execute all the Semu people who migrated from the Central Plains? What about the Semu people who originally migrated from the Central Plains?" Yunxi heard the implication.
"Your Majesty, the Tianfang Sect is divided into several sects, one of which is called the Xunni Sect, and the other is called the Shiye Sect. The soldiers of the Samarkand Kingdom and the Semu people in the Central Plains, who believe in the Xunni Sect, also tried their best to control them.
Most Tianfang believers in Tianfang believe in the Shiye sect. There is a saying in Tianfang religion, which is called 'Pagans can still survive, but heretics will definitely die'. The Tianfang believers in Yiliba are heretics to Timur, so they are extremely opposed to them.
Among the soldiers of the Samarkand Kingdom, none of the Shiye Tianfang followers in Urumqi surrendered, and all of them died in the battle. In order to make them stronger, His Highness will leave them to defend the city."
"That's all." Yunxi felt that Shang Bing's decision was correct at this moment, but muttered: "Even so, when this battle is over, we still have to get rid of them all."
"Where are Zhiwen and the others? Where are they now?" Yunxi thought of his nephews and nieces.
"Your Highness," said the person from Jiayuguan: "The Crown Prince of Qin, the Prince, and the Princess have all arrived at Jiayuguan on the tenth day of May and are being escorted to Ganzhou."
"That's good." Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief.
He then asked the two of them a few more questions and asked them to leave.
Immediately, Yun Xuan and Chen Ji came in and said to him: "Draw up the decree."
"All the guards mobilized for this battle were ordered to abandon most of their baggage and rush to Yiwu. The daily distance along the tram carriage should not be less than a hundred miles, and without the tram carriage, the daily distance should not be less than sixty miles.
The commander of the last guard station was beheaded for neglecting the military aircraft, and his speed was slower than I ordered. After the battle, the merit will be paid for the merit, and if the merit is not achieved, he will be dismissed and become a soldier."
"Your Majesty, is there a military crisis in Iraq and Wu?" Chen Ji heard this and asked while drafting an order.
"On the eighth day of the fifth lunar month, Yiwu City has been surrounded. Although most of the besiegers were cavalry and could not break through the city, internal and external transportation has been cut off. Moreover, Timur is also leading an army. Yiwu is in danger!" Yunxi gave a brief introduction.
.
Hearing this, Chen Ji also knew that the situation was serious, so he drafted the imperial edict as quickly as possible. After Yunxi read it, he called several other people from Zhongshushe, copied dozens of copies, printed them, and sent them to various places.
.
After that, Yunxi put aside all other thoughts, stopped riding in the carriage, left Miaojin and Yunzhi behind, and led a thousand people as escorts to Ganzhou as quickly as possible.
On the way to Ganzhou, Yunxi also prayed secretly: "My ancestors, if they have spirits in heaven, may the Ming Dynasty win this battle."
"The sky is full of gods and Buddhas. If you really exist, please protect the Ming Dynasty. Especially all the Buddhas. As long as the Ming Dynasty wins this battle, I promise to spread Buddhism throughout the Western Regions and regain the believers captured by the Tianfang Sect."
