Ji Xi immediately discovered the benefits of calling it Tibetan Buddhism. First, it made the Han people from the Central Plains, especially the soldiers of the Jin Dynasty's three guards who he brought all the way from Taiyuan, no longer conflict with Tibetan Buddhism. At that time, because in the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty
During this period, the Xifan people, also known as Uszang, and the various ethnic groups in Qinghai were regarded as second-class people. Compared with Taoism and Chinese Buddhism in the Central Plains, the Mongols preferred Lamaism, so many lamas came to the Central Plains, including
A large number of Han people have had the experience of committing evil deeds, which makes the Han people very fond of Lamaism.
Changing the name of Lamaism to Tibetan Buddhism will make many Han people suddenly realize: 'Ah, it turns out that Lamaism is also a branch of Buddhism!' This will reduce the resistance to Tibetan Buddhism. Then let's learn about the strict precepts of Tibetan Buddhism and the profound Dharma.
A great master can accept Tibetan Buddhism.
Yunxi was happy when he saw that Jixi understood. The Tarim Basin is close to Uzang and has a large number of Xifan people. Because the natural conditions are not good due to the numerous deserts and there are high mountains on three sides, it is difficult for foreign enemies to threaten them, so they will not immigrate in the future.
The key point, or in other words, under normal circumstances, apart from the three guards of the Jin Dynasty, Ji Xi would not add new Han people for many years.
Therefore, he must learn to use the Xifan people and Tibetan Buddhism. Of course he was pleased that Ji Yi understood how to use Tibetan Buddhism.
After saying a few more words, Yunxi finally said: "Thirteenth uncle, brother Jixi, although Shang Bingfeng will be further west later, you don't have to work as hard as him, but you can't relax."
"Although the Tibetans are easier to deal with than the Semu people in Uszang in the south of the Tarim Basin in Jixi, they can also be ignored; the Gurbantunggut Basin is bounded by the Oara to the north and the Mongolian grassland to the east, so it needs to be taken more seriously."
"Yes, official." They both agreed at the same time.
Yunxi had nothing to say after that, and the meal had already been finished, so he asked them to leave. Jixi bowed and left the mansion, but Zhu Gui did not leave. Instead, he sat next to Yunxi and said to him:
"Official family."
"What else does Uncle Thirteenth have to do?" Yunxi asked. He felt that everything that could be ordered had been given just now. As for those things that had not been decided, it was difficult to decide just now and cannot be decided now.
"Guan, I have something unclear, and I would like to ask the officials to make it clear. After I led the troops from the Dai Wang Guard to Yiwu, did the officials want to make me king in the Western Regions? If so, Ji Xi
Before coming to Yiwu, I already knew that I would be crowned king in the Western Regions. What considerations did the officials have in not informing me in advance?" Zhu Gui asked. After thinking about it, he felt that such a question would not offend Yunxi, and he did
I was very curious, so I asked directly.
"Uncle Thirteen, when you first came to Yiwu, I didn't think about making you king in the Western Regions." Yunxi said: "I didn't intend to go west to capture the city of Samarkand at the beginning.
We only plan to destroy the soldiers led by Timur and then seize the land of the Seven Rivers."
"So my initial plan was to seal Jixi to the Tarim Basin, capture the Turpan Basin and the city of Urumqi from Yili, and let Shang Bing rule it. Then I would encourage Shamechagan to move westward and move most of the tribes to Qi
River land, expanding westward little by little, controlling the Gurbantunggut Basin."
"But I never expected that Yili was so ineffective; I never expected that the soldiers led by Timur could be completely annihilated; I never expected that the seemingly powerful city-state of Samarkand was just a house built on the beach."
"So as these unexpected things happened, I also changed my plan until I established the victory and discussed it with Xu Huizu and others to form the current plan."
"Then why is Jixi still sealed to the Tarim Basin, and me to the Gurbantunggut Basin?" Zhu Gui continued to ask.
Yunxi was a little impatient, but still explained: "The reason why the Thirteenth Uncle was transferred to the Gurbantunggut Basin was because the Thirteenth Uncle's previous fiefdom was in Datong, and he often dealt with the Mongols, so he could better deal with the Wara people.
Waiting for the relationship with the Mongolian tribe; Ji Xi was previously sealed in Taiyuan and did not have much experience, but he was very interested in Buddhism, so he was sealed to the Tarim Basin in the south."
"Whether it's sealing you, Thirteenth Uncle, to the Gurbantunggut Basin or sealing Ji Xi to the Tarim Basin, I have considered it over and over again, and there is absolutely no influence of distance or distance. Your relationship with Ji Xi and me are both average.
, How could I be biased towards Ji Yi?" he said again.
"I am the one who missed the mark. Thank you Your Majesty." Zhu Gui finally said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will definitely defend the Gurbantunggut Basin and let the Han people become the masters of this land."

"Father, is what you just said true?" Song Xuan looked at Song Sheng in disbelief and said aloud.
"Father, is what you just said true?" Song Hu said the same thing. Fortunately, the third child, Song Ying, was not here at this time, otherwise Song Sheng would have heard the same sentence three times.
"Why should I deceive you?" Song Sheng asked back: "As for whether I misheard His Majesty's decree, do you think that my old eyesight is too dim to hear the words and read the handwriting clearly? It's just because Your Majesty didn't say anything for a while, so I haven't heard of it for the time being.
I issued an imperial edict and you don’t believe it?”
"However, this is too bizarre. It is a very special situation for Lord Mu to guard Yunnan. Why did he suddenly appoint his father to guard Yiwu?" Song Xuan said.
"His Majesty did not explicitly say that our family will guard this place like the Mu family for generations. Now it is just for me to guard this place. It is too early to talk about being like the Mu family; and even if our family is granted the title of guard Yiwu, it will not be unexpected.
."
"That's true. In the past few years, His Majesty has opened up new territories. Except for the Qinghai area, he has always been granted the title of prince or noble guard." Song Xuan said.
But Song Hu came excitedly: "Our family is guarding Yiwu. This is great. Not only is the family reunited, but no one is in charge of it anymore. Every day I..."
Unexpectedly, before he could finish his words, Song Sheng scolded him: "Your Majesty ordered our family to guard Yiwu because of your trust in our family. If you want to be so slack, wouldn't you have betrayed His Majesty's trust?"
"As long as I live, unless I get sick and can't get out of bed, you will be the same as before. If you dare to relax without permission, see if I don't break your legs!"
Then he said to Song Xuan: "You are the same, don't slack off!"
"Yes, father, my son knows." The two of them said immediately.
Song Sheng slowed down and continued: "Although I was appointed to guard Yiwu, after all, I have been in charge of the guards of Yiwu for several years, and I have also become familiar with Li and Wala. I will also follow His Highness the King of Qin on the Western Expedition.
I have only returned after visiting the city of Samarkand. It is already August now, and by the time I come back it will probably be April or May next year.”
"You two can't slack off for more than half a year. I will assign homework to you two. If you two don't finish it when I come back," Song Sheng said and paused here, but what he meant was already known to Song Xuan and Song Hu.
Got it.
"I will also arrange homework for Ying'er. After he returns to Yiwu from Ganzhou, Xuan'er, you are the elder brother. Remember to supervise Ying'er."
"Yes, father." Song Xuan agreed quickly.
"Learning is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. You must study hard. And don't think that you will be in Yiwu for the rest of your life. In the future, your Majesty may still need us."
…
…
"Sister, in two days, Your Highness will lead the soldiers to march west to capture the Land of Seven Rivers. Although the Land of Seven Rivers is not Timur's home base, they are all people who believe in the Tianfang Sect, and those tribes also sent people to follow Timur.
Mu'er marched eastward to invade the Ming Dynasty together. Therefore, my younger brother will follow His Highness to march westward to avenge his sister."
"Sister, you don't have to worry about having no one to take care of you. His Highness heard about my sister and decided to place her in the palace to be looked after by the queen. The conditions in the palace are better than ours, and the queen is also a good person, so don't worry."
"It's been going back and forth for about three or four months. My brother will definitely come back to celebrate the New Year with my sister." Facing his sister Lin Xueyan, Lin Chen kept talking.
At this moment, someone suddenly walked in and seemed to want to see him. Seeing this, he said, "Mr. Lin is still talking to sister?"
"It's Mr. Xiao Lin, what's the matter?" Lin Chen turned around and asked.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that there is another seriously ill person, please go see a doctor."
"Wait a moment, I'll change my clothes and go over." Lin Chen then took off his coat and put on his doctor's work clothes.
Looking at Lin Chen who was getting dressed, and then at Lin Xueyan sitting blankly on the edge of the bed, Xiao Lin Xier sighed and said: "Lin Chen, why are you doing this? If you leave it to the court, there will be no shortage."
My sister’s food and clothing.”
"Of course I will take care of my own relatives!" Lin Chen said firmly.
"What if someone is willing to marry your sister and go home?" Xiaolin Kiji suddenly asked.
"Then, I have to make sure that he really wants to marry my sister, and not just wants to find someone to have children with! He must not wrong my sister!" Lin Chen said.
