In Weizang Yamen, the fifth generation secretly met Jin Shengtan.
Jin Shengtan seemed to have expected the great monk to come and welcomed him into the flower hall in the backyard.
Dried cow dung is burning in the peat stove, and water is boiled in a copper kettle. There is a red sandalwood tea tray, a purple sand tea set, and a few cakes of dragon ball and phoenix cake produced in the Fujian Royal Tea Garden in the tea pot.
The two of them sat there, neither of them spoke first.
Jin Shengtan was very angry. After all, it was the great monk who took the initiative to see him, or he came secretly disguised as an ordinary monk.
Dragon Tuan Feng Cake is a tea made entirely according to the ancient method of the Song Dynasty. Naturally, you must also use the ancient method of the Song Dynasty to drink tea.
When bubbles as big as fish eyes appeared in the water in the pot and there was a slight sound of boiling water, Jin Shengtan took out the green salt jar and added a little bit of high-quality green salt into it.
When the water boils until beads of water appear on the edge of the pot and rises up, it is the second boil. Jin Shengtan scoops out a spoonful of water with a ladle, then picks up a bamboo tong and slowly stirs it in the water to form a vortex, and then moves gracefully
Pick up a tea spoon, take an appropriate amount of tea powder and put it into the center of the water vortex. When the water surface boils for three times, pour the water you scooped out back into the pot to stop boiling.
The great monk stared at the pot, as if he was concentrating on admiring Jin Shengtan's tea-making techniques, but he actually had no intention of looking at this.
Thick foam forms on the surface of the tea soup in the pot.
Jin Shengtan took his time and knocked off a layer of black water film on the foam, and then poured the tea soup into several tea cups. He did not use the original set of purple clay tea sets, but another set of Fujian tea sets.
cup.
The tea foam should be spread evenly on each cup of tea.
The great monk couldn't stand it anymore.
"Your Excellency, the current situation is turbulent. I wonder if the saint has any will?"
Jin Shengtan pushed the tea cup in front of the great monk in a calm manner, with a calm smile on his face. The fifth generation was still very young after all. In fact, the fifth generation was only one year older than the current Da Mingzi, and he was only thirty-five years old this year.
This ruler of former Tibet was born into the Qiongstammer family, a great nobleman of former Tibet.
He is also the abbot of Drepung Monastery and Sera Monastery.
…
When the fifth generation was young, he often fled and hid in Shannan for a long time.
These early experiences made him appear not to care about worldly matters, but in fact he was very concerned about the affairs of Weizang Qingkang.
Before, he mainly influenced affairs through his former chief steward Suonan Raodan, but once Gushi Khan died, he showed some impatience and even refused to stay behind the scenes.
From establishing Dayan as the new Khan to giving Dayan the title of Khan, he was extremely active.
I thought that once the fierce tiger Gushi Khan died, the young Dayan Khan would not be as prestigious as his father and would have to rely on him, but he never expected that the situation would turn out like this.
Dalai Hutaiji, who returned to Qinghai, directly sent Layang to the Emperor of Tomorrow. He also called his brothers and nephews in Qinghai to form an alliance and presented many evidences that Dayan had an affair with Layang and together they murdered Gushi Khan.
Now that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty accepted his evidence, and most of the princes also supported him, the emperor directly conferred the title of new Khan on Dalai, ordered to depose Dayan Khan from the throne, and asked him to go to Beijing to plead guilty.
This made the Fifth Emperor very passive and even a little embarrassed, because he canonized Dayan as the new Khan, but the Emperor of Heaven did not recognize it.
The emperor of tomorrow established a new khan.
Who established the khan and is it the real khan?
Although the fifth generation is the leader of the Yellow Sect, he also knows that he is absolutely incomparable to the great emperor of the same age.
The emperor of tomorrow has strong troops and strong horses.
He must change this embarrassing situation now, otherwise if Dayan Khan is overthrown by Dalai Khan, it will also affect his and the status of the entire Gelug sect.
Jin Shengtan sipped tea.
This tea is salted, and even some spices are added to the tea. The tea foam tastes completely different from the popular bubble tea, but after all, it is good tea. His technique is also very skillful, and the taste
not bad.
He had already expected that the fifth generation would come to see him. In fact, the fifth generation had been asking him to come over for discussion before, but Jin Shengtan ignored it.
The dynasty first transferred all the 500 soldiers from the Weizang Battalion back to the Yamen, and even sent a notice to the Ming merchants in Lhasa, asking them to temporarily enter the Weizang Yamen for safety.
Weizang Yamen is a safe place that looks like a Yamen on the outside, but is actually a manor, and a fortress inside.
There are five hundred soldiers at the door, plus some who claim to be service personnel or businessmen, and there are thousands of them. There are blunderbuss, gunpowder, bows and arrows and even several cannons inside, which even Dayan may not be able to capture.
"Master has also seen the newspaper sent from Qinghai. Dalai Batur has a mountain of ironclad evidence, including both personal and material evidence. Even Layang confessed. This matter is certain, and we are all caught.
Yan was deceived."
"Who would have thought that a son would kill his father?"
The Fifth World also sighed, "Yes, Dayan has been publicly appointed as the heir by Gushi Khan several times. Who would have thought that he would kill his father."
Jin Shengtan seemed not to remember at all that he held a japanese altar before to summon spirits, and even spoke in front of everyone as Gushi Khan about Li Dayan's succession to the throne, the separation of the Qinghai family, and other matters.
"People have been killed since ancient times, and the ancients have never deceived me. Dayan originally had a great future, but unfortunately his mind was deceived by a humble maidservant, especially when this woman was his concubine. Because of the adultery being exposed, he was not eligible to inherit the throne.
Being deprived, he did such a stupid thing as patricide in anger, alas."
This explanation is quite reasonable.
But now the fifth generation doesn't care why Dayan did it or whether he did it at all. His biggest headache now is that things are developing beyond his control.
Now Dalai Khan has produced the so-called evidence and has received the support of his brothers, especially the direct support of the Emperor of Heaven. They all canonized him as Khan and deposed Dayan.
How will he end up now?
"Handu, the general manager of Kham, is now rebelling against the separatist regime and calling himself Saiyin Khan. He even invited a fleeing Ningma monk to be his national advisor and announced that all the Mongolians and local indigenous people in Kham would convert to the Nyingma sect. This
This kind of behavior will never be tolerated." Wu Shi said sadly.
"There are also several vassal states that the original vassal vassal paid tribute to, but now they are all rebellious and in chaos."
Heshuote has several vassal states, all of which are small neighboring states. For example, the Ladakh Kingdom on the Ngari side is deeply influenced by the Kagyu Sect, and the Lowo Kingdom is deeply influenced by the Sakya Sect.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Sikkim, which was founded only a few years ago, was also founded under the influence of the Nyingma sect.
The country of Bhutan, which had previously had a war with Heshu Tecai and failed to win three conquests, is also a country that believes in the Kagyu sect and is independent.
Because of the same belief, Bhutan and Lakdak have friendly relations.
As early as Zangpa Khan, he sent troops to conquer Bhutan twice, but they were repulsed in the end, which made the Kagyu sect of Bhutan even more prestigious.
After Ngawang Namgyal of Bhutan once again defeated Zangpa Khan and the domestic opposition, he unified Bhutan, adopted the Kagyu Sect as the state religion, and called himself the Dharma King.
Gushi Khan killed Zangba Khan and established the Heshuote Khanate. Facing the untamed Bhutan, he invaded Bhutan in the name of chasing down the remaining enemies. Before the death of Gushi Khan, the Heshuote army invaded Bhutan three times.
Dan, but they were all repelled in the end.
Bhutan began to fight back and expanded eastward, threatening the Menyu area of the Khoshot Khanate. The situation between the two sides was already tense.
Now that Khoshot is in chaos, Bhutan has not hesitated to seize the opportunity to unite with the Kingdom of Ladakh and even send troops to Sikkim and others from different factions to deal with Khoshot together, and also united with some opposition forces in Weizang
, support their rebellion.
Bhutan, also called Lukba, worships the dragon and calls itself the land of the dragon.
The fifth generation was very anxious and was bullied by vassals such as Bhutan, Ladakh and Sikkim.
But he knew that the focus now was not on these clowns, but on the serious impact of the civil strife in the Khoshot Khanate on the Gelug sect.
The fourth Panchen Lama from Houzang came out and personally went to persuade Jishe Diba in Shigatse to withdraw his troops and make peace, hoping to promote an armistice, but neither Jishe Diba nor Dayan Khan would give up.
For Dayan Khan, he has no retreat now. If he takes this step back, he will no longer have a foothold. If he can't even quell the rebellion of the local nobles in Shigatse, how can he face the brothers in Qinghai?
them.
The fifth generation looked at Jin Shengtan. This Ming Dynasty official was too calm, not panicked at all, and could still enjoy tea leisurely.
"Budang, for the sake of the peace of Weizang and the stability of the Khoshote Khanate, since Dayan has deceived all of us and committed such treacherous things as killing his father and king, and now he refuses to call off the troops and make peace, then
We cannot sit idly by and watch."
Jin Shengtan served himself some tea.
"What does the master mean?"
When the fifth generation saw that the conversation had reached this point, Jin Shengtan still refused to answer, so he had no choice but to speak directly.
"At this point, we can only plan to get rid of Dayan, support the emperor's will, and let Dalai become the new Khan."
"It would be best to ask His Majesty the Emperor to send the Great Tomorrow Soldiers directly into Tibet to get rid of Dayan Khan." He tentatively said.
Jin Shengtan was greatly surprised when he heard this. He thought that the Fifth Emperor came to see him because he wanted to use his 500 Weizang soldiers to protect Bu Palace, and even wanted to use his elite troops to attack Dayan Khan.
I never expected that he would directly propose to kill Dayan.
"It is unrealistic for our Ming Dynasty soldiers to enter Tibet. Water from afar cannot quench our thirst for nearness." Jin Shengtan shook his head and said. In fact, the Ming army could send 500 people to garrison the Tibetan Yamen. Of course, they could send more people. But now
There was civil strife in Heshuote, and the Ming Dynasty wanted to make the chaos worse. How could he send people to quell the chaos so quickly? Wasn't it to help Dalai Batur Khan make wedding clothes?
Wu Shi sighed.
I didn't want the Ming army to enter Tibet, it was just a test. Now it seems that the Ming Dynasty is not active.
"Does the ministry have any good ideas?"
Jin Shengtan put down his tea cup and came up with an idea that was not his idea, "Actually, I think the master did nothing wrong when he helped Dayan Khan and gave him the title of Khan. After all, who knew that he had an affair with his concubine and even killed his concubine?
As for his father's regicide, now his brother has come up with evidence. The Ming Dynasty has also consecrated Dalai as the new Khan. Dalai wants to lead his troops into Tibet to attack Dayan. This is an internal matter within the Khan's family. Why doesn't the master be more detached?
Don't worry about worldly matters.
I believe that with the support of the Ming Dynasty, Dalai Batur Khan will definitely be able to defeat Dayan Khan, and everything will naturally be peaceful by then."
Wu Shi was stunned, never expecting that he would have such an attitude.
"But now there are rebellions everywhere. Even tributary countries such as Bhutan and Ladakh dare to invade the border. Shigatse and Kham are also rebelling. How can we sit back and watch?"
"Master, don't worry, as long as Dalai Khan enters Tibet and defeats Dayan, everything will naturally calm down."
