In addition to Lamaism, Ganzhou also has Han Buddhism. While walking around the city in the afternoon, I also passed by a Han Buddhism temple and went in to take a look.
However, not many people embraced Chinese Buddhism. The surviving Xixia people and the Mongolians who stayed here all believed in Lamaism. Only the Han people who moved here were very dissatisfied with Lamaism because the monks of Lamaism during the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties were too arrogant.
They were disgusted with it, so they worshiped Han Buddhism. However, as the Ming Dynasty supported Han Buddhism, and the local Xixia people were originally Han people, they also began to believe in Han Buddhism.
On the morning of the third day, Xu Huizu had practiced martial arts and went to the front hall to find Zhu Kai. As soon as he arrived at Zhu Kai's study, he saw a man in his room, wearing the uniform of a second-rank official of the Ming Dynasty, talking to Zhu Kai.
He was stunned for a moment and then said: "Wu Jie, are you back from Suzhou?"
This person is Wu Jie, Marquis of Anlu, who is currently serving as the commander of the Three Qin Xingdu Division. Wu Jie and Xu Huizu are not particularly familiar with each other, but they are both nobles of the Ming Dynasty, so they naturally know each other.
"After the things in Suzhou are finished, I will naturally come back." Wu Jie said.
"Just in time, I have something to ask you,..." Xu Huizu said.
"Wu Jie, you just came in from outside the city and you didn't have breakfast. Yungong didn't eat either. Let's have breakfast first before talking about anything else." Zhu Zhen interrupted Xu Huizu's words and said.
Xu Huizu also suddenly realized that he was too impatient, and hurriedly answered: "Then let's eat first." Wu Jie rushed back from Suzhou overnight, so he was naturally hungry, so he smiled and said: "Then I'll spare the expense of His Highness Prince Su."
During breakfast, Zhu Zhao asked Wu Jie: "Has the matter over in Suzhou been resolved?"
"Solved." Wu Jie said.
"What happened over there in Suzhou?" Xu Huizu asked. He only knew that Wu Jie went to Suzhou, but he didn't know what happened in Suzhou.
"A fan guard was trying to mutiny, so I went to put it down. His Highness the King of Qin was originally stationed in Shazhou. Although he was always ready to attack Yiwu, he also frightened the people there. After His Highness the King of Qin moved to Yiwu, the army also
When we arrived in Yiwu, there was no deterrent to the local people, so they were ready to take action again."
"This time I took a thousand households with me and used both soft and hard tactics to execute a few troublemakers, and finally pacified them," Wu Jie said.
"Are the local guards like this?" Xu Huizu asked.
"Most of the Fan people are fearful of power and have no morals. Now, except for Ganzhou and Xining, where the Ming Dynasty is stronger, other places in the Three Qin Dynasty are not very good. Naturally, the Fan people are ready to take action." Wu Jie said.
Soon after the meal was finished, the three of them came to Zhu Ping's study and chatted for a while. Zhu Ping said to Xu Huizu: "Xu Huizu, why do you want to see Wu Jie?"
"I want to see Wu Jie because of the local Fan Guards. Your Majesty has said that there are not many Han people in the Ming Dynasty, and I will feel sad if any one of them dies, so we must use more Fan civilians in the war."
"So I thought about contacting the people here to see if I could make them obedient and help them fight during the war," Xu Huizu said.
"Brother Yun Gong, the people here can use them to fight, but don't expect them to fight to the death. If the situation goes wrong, they will not be able to work hard, and they may even escape."
"So it is impossible to expect them to be the main army. It must be our own army. Having our own army to support the formation can allow the guards to beat the drums, or chase and beat up the drowned dogs."
"We have to make them use all their strength, unless it threatens their tribe, then they will fight to the death." Wu Jie said.
"I'm in the east, and the Mongolians of the three guards of Wuliangha fought very hard. There are several chieftains in Yunnan and Guangxi who also fought bravely. Why are the guards in the west like this?" Xu Huizu said.
"How do I know this? Anyway, this is the situation here." Wu Jie said.
"You just said that because we are stronger in Xining, the local guards are still peaceful? I want to go to Xining to see the situation there with my own eyes." After a long silence, Xu Huizu said.
"Okay, okay, I'll arrange for a Qianhu to escort you there." Wu Jie said.
"I'll go with you alone." Zhu Zhen immediately explained: "Anyway, since Wu Jie is back, all the affairs of Sanqin Xingdusi can be left to him. I don't have anything important to do, so I will accompany you for a trip."
"But, after all, the Xining area is inhabited by barbarians, which is a bit dangerous." Wu Jie said.
"With military protection, there won't be any danger; the local people don't dare to harm Gu. They finally know that there is a court above Gu. It won't do them any good to harm Gu. Nothing will happen to them." Zhu Ting smiled.
Although Wu Jie understood the truth, he still tried his best to prevent Zhu Chu from going to Xining, and even proposed to go to Xining to accompany Xu Huizu.
But Zhu Zhen was determined to go, and neither Wu Jie nor Xu Huizu could stop him, so they had no choice but to let him go.
Zhu Zhen prepared for two days to explain the matters in the palace, and planned to leave for Xining on June 15th.
…
…
In the evening of June 14th, a team of horsemen, covered with dust, entered the city of Ganzhou from the north gate of Ganzhou. Since Yiwu returned to the Qin Dynasty, there have been many such horse teams, and some of them went to Yiwu to try their luck. Merchants, some were part of the imperial cavalry.
This team was obviously a cavalry team composed of people from the imperial court. After entering Ganzhou City, they went straight to the local post station. The local post station checked their identities and confirmed that they were a team sent from Qin Fan to the capital and arranged a place for them to stay. .
However, after the leader arranged for his men to stay, he came out of the inn and went straight to Prince Su's Mansion. He handed a name card to the door and said: "Song Hu, the commander of Qin Fan Yiwu's left guard, asks to see His Highness Prince Su."
At this time, Zhu Ping was giving instructions to the princess when he suddenly heard about Song Hu's request for a meeting. He was a little confused: Shang Bing only sent people to the court to inform the news, but he actually asked Song Hu to lead the team back to Beijing?
However, Song Sheng was the prime minister of the Qin dynasty, and Song Hu was also very good at fighting, so of course he wanted to receive him. He immediately announced Song Hu's entry into the palace.
After a while, Zhu Hao saw him in the living room. After greetings and greetings, Zhu Hao directly asked his doubts: "Song Hu, I just went to the capital to deliver a letter, why do you want to make a trip?"
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin obtained a bloody horse in Yiwu and asked me to bring it as a tribute to His Majesty." Song Hu said.
"A bloody horse?" Zhu Zhen asked in surprise.
"Yes, they are purebred sweat-blooded horses. I don't know how I got five of them, and gave two to His Highness the King of Qin. His Highness keeps one for himself, and this one will be sent to the capital for His Majesty." Song Hu said.
Zhu Ping's eyes were full of envy, but he didn't dare to stop halfway and sat on the chair speechless for a long time.
"Your Highness, Your Highness the King of Qin also knows that Your Highness is a horse lover, so he specially gave His Highness a horse that was mixed with a sweat-blooded stallion and a Tuguhun horse." Song Hu said quickly.
"Haha, I knew that nephew Shang Bing would not forget me! I will thank him for you when you return to Yiwu. It happens that I will go out tomorrow, so let's ride this horse." Zhu Zhi said with a smile.
