Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Recent Situations of Foreign Domains
Then came Yao Guangxiao's letter. The situation in Korea became more and more intense. With the help of Yao Guangxiao, Monk Hinton was now able to dominate the world with one hand. He took over all the power inside and outside Korea. At the same time, he used his allies to exclude dissidents. The families of those he killed did not dare to complain.
, this naturally intensified the two groups of nobles unique to Goryeo.
So far, the three major families of Qingzhou Han, Kaijing Yao, and Qingsong Shen have openly opposed Hinton, and even the King of Goryeo has been unable to ease the relationship between them.
Under such circumstances, active and forced peasant uprisings occurred one after another. In other words, these were not called uprisings, but were just chess pieces used by the two sides to test each other. It could take as long as a month or as short as a few days, and they would be defeated by the other side's soldiers and horses.
Destroyed.
After all, the national conditions are different. There are not many people in the narrow Goryeo territory. The size of the uprising army alone is not enough to fight against the ruling class. Once the uprising breaks out, a small area will basically be suspended.
Get up and fight, and in the end, let a group of troops go over and search, and you can probably clear it up.
However, this kind of thing is undoubtedly damaging to one's own foundation. It's a pity that Hinton and those nobles don't care. What's the point of breaking porcelain just to taste the sweetness?
After passing by, the rooster crows and the pavilion is abandoned.
Zhu Biao was happy to hear this. Whether it is private or public, it is not mine at the moment, so let’s play with it to your heart’s content. How can you fish when the water is not mixed? Yao Guangxiao finally mentioned in the letter that Hinton was ready to rebel...
Then there is the letter from the Ming Dynasty envoy Jiang Side. If we don’t talk about conspiracies and intrigues, the Ming Dynasty and Goryeo are actually in the honeymoon period. The King of Goryeo received crown clothes, musical instruments, elegant music, prescriptions, classics, etc. from Zhu Yuanzhang, and also requested to send foreign students to the country.
The Imperial College of the Ming Dynasty studied, and tributes such as ramie, cotton silk, tiger skins, leopard skins, ginseng, and sea cucumbers were presented, and tribute scholars were selected to participate in the imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty. Cultural and economic exchanges between the two sides were quite frequent.
Jiang Side said in the letter that the King of Goryeo had also discovered Monk Xinton's ambition. He first rejected Xin Min's request to appoint him as the "Inquisitor of the Five Ways", and then ordered the Liubu Tai provincial official to personally report the matter.
He also asked the historian to go to Baoping Hall to listen to political affairs and check and balance Hinton.
At the end, Jiang Side wrote a few sentences that the King of Korea was in a bad state. After the death of Princess Lu, he often applied makeup on himself, disguised himself as a woman, drank and slept with the nobles day and night, and sometimes even asked his concubines to accompany him for fun...
…
Zhu Biao sighed when he saw the last part. A good envoy from a big country paid attention to such nonsense. It seems that this person has been corrupted by the corrupt relationship in Goryeo. If Lao Zhu saw this letter, he would have to send his own army to the Duwei Mansion to rush it.
To seek death would save Ming Dynasty's face, but Zhu Biao let him go because his writing was quite philosophical.
After finishing all these things, Zhu Biao got up and went to Wuying Hall. Before he got there, Zhu Biao saw several officials being dragged out. Each of them kept shouting for mercy from the saint, but how could Lao Zhu do this?
Be merciful to them.
On the way, Zhu Biao asked Liu Jin to go to the Ministry of Rites and ask the officials of the Ministry of Rites to invite the former Yuan Dynasty Regent Master to come over. Zhu Biao also got to meet this old lama who had a transcendent status in Wusizang.
Zhu Biao sat down in Wuying Hall. After half an hour, several officials from the Ministry of Etiquette hurriedly led a group of lamas in. The scene shocked Zhu Biao. The leading old lamas were solemnly dressed in red Zen clothes.
After getting up, there were forty or fifty young lamas holding Buddha statues, silver melons, tooth sticks, bone buds, lanterns, gauze lanterns, incense sticks, whisks, silver teacups, silver pots, prayer wheels, red round fans, and prayer mats.
tents, prayer flags and other ritual utensils.
Liu Jin, who had come back to life a long time ago, turned green. What if these bald donkeys suddenly went crazy and swarmed up with their things in their hands, hurting His Highness? Then he glared at the official of the Ministry of Etiquette fiercely, and then looked at the man below.
The son winked, and the little eunuch walked out quickly.
Soon there were more guards guarding the door, and by this time the lamas had completed a rather complicated kneeling ceremony. Even though they couldn't understand its meaning, they could still feel its sincerity.
After all the lamas had bowed to the ground, Zhu Biao stood up and said with support: "Please bow down without courtesy. Someone will come and give Master Namgyalpa Zangbu a seat."
The leader of the old lama didn't respond. It was a lama behind him who translated before he led everyone to stand up, then clasped his hands and said something.
An official from the Ministry of Rites explained: "Your Highness, Master Namgyalpa Zangbu has only learned Tibetan and Mongolian, so communication requires translation."
Zhu Biao nodded indifferently. He was a Tibetan, and he was originally awarded the title of Photographer of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. If he didn't speak Chinese, he would not be able to do so. Zhu Biao would not have a good impression of him just because an outsider shouted "I love the Ming Dynasty".
It didn't matter that the old lama couldn't speak. Since he was in the capital, this was a statement, which was 10,000 times better than talking about something. Then the two sides started a rather laborious exchange, but the result was not bad.
During this period, Namgyalpa Tsangpo probably said a lot about his professionalism. Although Zhu Biao didn't understand it, he roughly understood it when he looked at the lamas behind him who were paying homage. Unfortunately, this kind of thing changes its flavor as soon as it is translated.
.
Maybe the old lama was still a little disappointed in the end. After all, he failed to conquer the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty. If he could be allowed to accept the initiation, then his reputation as an imperial master would be stable, and their lineage could be famous for hundreds of years.
The old god Zhu Biao is sitting in the upper position. The old guy Namgyalpa Tsangbu is a bit too naive. Perhaps his Buddhist teachings are quite profound and his understanding of religious classics is very high, but these are of no use in politics.
I tell you about benefits, and you tell me about the Paradise. This is not nonsense.
To be honest, if the benefits are really high enough, it doesn't matter if he just recognizes this imperial master. Wu Si Zang's territory is so vast, it would be great if he can win it with a mere false name. Anyway, he is younger than the old monk. Wait until he takes him
You can control their lineage casually.
It's a pity that Namgyalpa Tsangbu is just the political and religious leader of Usizang, and Pazhu's Sakyamuni Gyaltsen is the actual ruler. In this case, Namgyalpa Tsangbu has no capital to negotiate terms.
Zhu Biao's last promise is that the Ming Dynasty will canonize him as the national teacher of the Blazing Buddha Treasure. He can recommend talents from Wusi Zang at any time, including those officials of the old Yuan Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty will canonize him, and the Ming Dynasty will also recognize him as the religious leader of Wusi Zang.
.
The title "National Master" may sound deceptive, but it is actually the title of an expert who possesses both religious and moral principles. There are many types of National Masters, with the highest being called the Imperial Master. Below that, there are also the Grand Initiation National Master, the Initiation National Master, and the National Master.
.
Zhu Biao's plan is that except for the emperor's master, the rest will be entrusted to the leaders of various sects in Wusizang. Again, the less everything is, the more valuable it is. This means more enfeoffments and many establishments.
