Hu Lahachi got Sonam Gyatso to give him guidance on the "maze" and had a good impression of the emperor - only then did he interrupt the decree to express his loyalty.
On that day, when Suonan Gyatso told the story of Zhu Yijun's "reincarnation" to Hu Lahachi, he told him: "The great emperor may not know his true nature, and even if he knows, he may not take it for granted. Therefore, you know this matter
That’s it, don’t go around talking about it.”
This was said softly, and it didn't say what would happen if you went around talking about it.
Originally, in order for the emperor to express his gratitude, he must publicize this matter on the grassland. The living Buddha planned to say this to every Mongolian chieftain who came to see him, and he did not stop Hu Lahachi from saying it in private -
But he never imagined that Hulahachi, a fool, could get drunk on the occasion of the emperor's banquet for the chiefs, jump on the table and announce it in a very high-profile way. Not only did he not say anything, but he was also directly involved.
.
In fact, political economics also follows scientific laws - entropy always increases. Hu Lahachi drinking too much is a typical "entropy increase".
But this happened for a reason. From a psychological point of view, Hu Lahachi was eager to confirm whether Zhu Yijun recognized his reincarnated identity, or in other words, he had to confirm whether the emperor was willing to use the identity that the Living Buddha had fabricated for him. This had nothing to do with what he could do.
Whether the rule of Khalkha is stable or not is closely related.
There are now seven large tribes in Khalkha, and the easternmost one is a neighbor of Tumen Khan. In the ninth year of Wanli, the Ming court defeated Tumen Khan in a flash, and his eldest son Buyan handed over the Yuan Seal of Meng Yuan to escape.
Hu Lahachi was frightened.
As soon as the emperor's order to meet the chiefs at Saihanba arrived, Hulahachi couldn't resist at all, and immediately set off for Saihanba. It would be a joke if it came true: he would arrive two days earlier than the emperor.
months.
Of course, being so weak would be ridiculed by his subordinate chiefs, and the territory of Khalkha was extremely large and had not been controlled by the king for a long time. Some people suggested that Hu Lahachi should not pay attention to the imperial court. Hu Lahachi was frightened by these people's extraordinary attitude.
So he decided to go all the way to Qinghai to ask for advice from Suonan Gyatso.
After he returned to Khalkha from Kumbum Monastery, he conveyed Sonam Gyatso's statement that under the constraints of the Golden Bloodline Law, none of his tribe chiefs could survive. Hulahaci did not rest for two days, and immediately set off again
Going to Saihanba, because I was in a rather excited mood and ran faster, I actually arrived second after Nenhorqin.
When the day came for the decree to be announced, he felt more and more that Sonam Gyatso's judgment was correct when he heard the decree: according to the behavior of the Han emperors a hundred years ago, with such military power, they would not have provided such generous policy treatment to the Mongols.
, not only to kill them, but also to let them have residual health - this is the normal way to open up the offensive and defensive confrontation between Han and Mongolia.
Great rewards for kings and nobles, open mutual trade, no restrictions on exchanges, and respect for the Yellow Sect. With these four decrees, in addition to not giving super-national treatment to "one's own flesh and blood", even under the rule of Xue Chan Khan, the court could not give it
More.
In Hu Lahachi's heart, Zhu Yijun is the "reincarnation of Kublai Khan", but the question is whether the emperor admits it? If not, Khalkha will still be unstable. By then, the management difficulty will be doubled. It will be a trivial matter. If the emperor is angered
, "Raise the Sixth Division and destroy the desert", then everything will be over.
Therefore, he interrupted the declaration and tested the emperor first to see what his attitude was towards him. As expected, the "Hanpi Yuangu" emperor warmly comforted him after Zhang Siwei scolded him, which made his heart warm.
Then it was time to drink. The wine was delicious and had great stamina. Hu Lahachi, who was looking at Zhu Yijun becoming more and more friendly, got a little drunk after drinking too much, and then staged the scene of breaking the news.
After the news broke, the emperor didn't speak, and there was silence in the golden tent. This guy was so full of wine that he broke into a cold sweat. Only then did he realize that his behavior was similar to forcing the palace - if Zhu Yijun didn't admit it, the political effect of the General Assembly would be reduced by half; if he admitted it,
What did the Han officials think? Can the emperor pay such a high political price?
He regretfully wanted to slap himself for not mentioning it, and Zhu Yijun was indeed trapped by him. Hu Lahachi's words were classified as being circulated in the gossip, so he would take advantage of them without paying any price, but in this case
It was publicized on important occasions, but Sonam Gyatso's hard work was in vain.
This guy is a pig teammate! Zhu Yijun thought helplessly. However, the golden tent cannot be silent for a long time, and no one can make this political decision for him. Therefore, he quickly sorted out his thoughts on handling ethnic issues and organized his language in a draft.
After a moment of silence, Zhu Yijun coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Hu La Ha Chi, it's so unbecoming to jump on the table. You can come down first, and everyone should return to their seats."
All the Mongolian chiefs and Han officials held their breaths and quickly returned to their seats, waiting for Zhu Yijun to speak. Zhu Yijun picked up the tea cup, took a sip and said with a smile: "I am influenced by the Cisheng Queen Mother and love Buddhism. Only the teachings of Buddha are unique.
In the classics, it is used to guide good people, awaken people's confusion, and protect the country and the people without being helpless."
Unlike when he spoke in Mongolian just now, what Zhu Yijun said at this time was in Chinese. Because after Hu Lahachi told Sonam Gyatso's plan, Zhu Yijun had gained a very high status in the hearts of the Mongolian people. Now he is speaking mainly
Solve the cognitive problems of the Han people.
"But I love Buddhism and love that its own truth exists. Is the existence of truth only in the Buddhist scriptures? No. Red flowers, white lotus roots and green lotus leaves, all dharmas return to the origin and have one truth. In today's world, the theory of studying things is very popular.
.I prefer his theory of seeking the truth through empirical evidence."
As the Lord of the world, everything he says and does is the law of the world. Ten years ago, Zhu Yijun had no perceptual understanding of this, but eleven years after he ascended the throne, he has a profound understanding of this aspect.
At this time, if he says "Believe in Buddhism", people in the world will build Buddhist temples, and all the cities and villages will become bhikkhu monasteries. In the same way, if he says "believe in Taoism", then the Dragon and Tiger Quanzhen will be established as noble families and high-ranking guests.
.At this time, because the Mongolian chieftain was present, his statement that he "loves Buddhism quite a lot" was the limit of his position as an emperor. It was the same reason when he pointed out his support for Gewu in his speech.
After first talking about his position on Buddhism and his own beliefs, Zhu Yijun had to face the question raised by Sonam Gyatso: whether he was the reincarnation of Kublai Khan.
Zhu Yijun's thoughts were very clear, and he continued: "The Empress Dowager Cisheng and I have a close relationship with Mount Wutai. Previously, before the birth of the emperor's eldest daughter, Prince Luo, etc., they all performed rituals in Mount Wutai to protect the emperor's heirs." The key points at this time.
Leaving Wutai Mountain, we pave the way for the final conclusion.
"In the past, Pasipa interpreted the mountain with sutras, and it was said that Mount Wutai was the seat of the five Buddhas of the Vajra Realm of Esoteric Dharma. After his death, his clothes and crown were enshrined in the relic pagoda of Puen Temple. Hanshan talked to me about this before
, Yandao Puen Temple has been in disrepair for a long time and has become dilapidated. I have also allocated internal funds to repair it. "
"The repair of the stupa was completed on the eighth day of April in the seventh year of the Wanli calendar. Why do I remember it so clearly? Because I had a dream that day and saw a lotus platform under His Majesty Dan in the Huangji Palace. The Buddha was sitting on it, joining his hands and bowing to me.
How can I accept this kind of salute? I hurriedly walked down from Danbi, put my hands together and saluted him."
After everyone in the Golden Tribe heard this, the Mongolian chieftains were all stunned. Zhang Siwei and others opened their mouths and couldn't close their mouths - Emperor, you are such a braggart! Then they thought that this emperor didn't believe anything in his bones.
Ah, if you believe me at all, you can't lie about having such a dream! Next to you, Shen Shixing's muscles on his face were twisted, and he pinched his thigh with his fingers.
"I asked the Buddha where he came from. The Buddha smiled and said nothing. I asked him again and again, and then he said the stanza: 'The original nature is undivided, and there are many expedients. Visitors come under the worry-free tree, and the Manjushri is beneficial to the body. The seven political affairs are circumambulated.
Treasure, the wheel of control. Manjushri is auspicious and wonderful, true to your true self.'"
The two interpreters under the throne were sweating profusely. Because they were not Buddhists, this verse was too difficult for them to translate. They looked at each other with pale faces, for fear of delaying the emperor's important event. Zhu Yijun waited for a while and saw this
Neither of them made any movement, and they knew it in their hearts. They smiled and continued:
"Before I asked him what the verse was about, I woke up with a start. Then I summoned Han Shan and asked him to interpret the meaning in the dream."
After saying this, Zhu Yijun seemed to have remembered something, and told the Wei Dynasty: "Today I will give you a banquet with lots of wine and meat, so I didn't let Han Shan come here. You go and call him to help me recall the interpretation of the dream that day."
situation."
Wei Chao looked serious, bowed and agreed, and left the golden tent to find Hanshan.
Zhu Yijun paused for a while, as if recalling Hanshan's dream interpretation words that day. After pondering for a while, he said: "Hanshan explained to me: 'The nature of return to the origin is the same, and there are many methods of convenience.' This is a sentence in the Surangama Sutra.
, is the words of Manjushri Bodhisattva, saying that all dharmas from sentient to merciless are nothing more than one person and one thought, and this is their original appearance."
"The guests under the Ashoka tree are the manifested bodies of the Tathagata. The eighth day of April is the Buddha Bathing Festival, and it is the day when the Tathagata was born under the Ashoka tree - this sentence corresponds to the day of my dream."
After saying these words, Zhang Siwei had already guessed what Zhu Yijun wanted to do. He secretly smacked his lips, thinking that the emperor really dared to say it. No wonder Zhang Jugong said that the emperor has a big heart. This heart is indeed big enough. Otherwise, he couldn't make up this
All kinds of tricks?
But the Emperor is indeed very resourceful. Otherwise, no matter who comes, it will be very difficult to compile this decent gatha in a short time. The Emperor - it is not easy either.
He calmed down and listened to the emperor's continued explanation: "Manjushri is Manjushri Bodhisattva. There is no need to explain this."
"The seven political treasures are the golden wheel treasure, the Mani treasure, the jade girl treasure, the minister's treasure, the white elephant treasure, the horse treasure, and the general's treasure. With these seven political treasures, one can tame enemies, govern the world, have abundant wealth, and be loved by everyone.
Respect, this sentence refers to me."
"The next sentence is about controlling the wheel of power. Hanshan explained that the former Sakya Mahayana Dharma King Kunze Siba called Emperor Chengzu 'the Dharma King who controls the wheel of power and other seven political treasures.' When these two sentences are combined, it should be between me and Chengzu.
In the same way, he already has the status of the reincarnating Dharma King."
Zhu Yijun spoke slowly while recalling. He said something, and the interpreters translated it, which shocked the people in the Manjin account. These people were either meeting Zhu Yijun for the first time, or they had the opportunity to meet the saint.
Very few people knew who the person sitting on the throne was. At this time, when they heard the emperor's stories about dreams and interpretations of dreams, they all believed them to be true. There is no need to express their admiration in detail.
Only Zhang Siwei and Shen Shixing, who understood Zhu Yijun's character like this, could know the emperor's intentions. They were both defeated and speechless by his imagination. But in this case, the two of them could only help Zhu Yijun to cover up his lies. Even if they returned to the capital, they would not
Dare to tell what you have guessed. What the emperor said today will be recorded in the history of the country - it is all true.
Zhu Yijun took another sip of tea and recalled: "Manjusri's auspicious and wonderful sentence is actually repeated. The auspicious and wonderful one is Manjusri. But Hanshan explained it carefully without repeating it -" After saying this, the guards outside the golden tent came in to report.
, said it was Hanshan’s report.
Zhu Yijun secretly let out a deep breath, maintained a strong smile and said, "Let him in."
Han Shan entered the tent, his face slightly flushed. Zhu Yijun guessed that he had come running over, and he gave Wei Chao and Han Shan a thumbs up in his heart. He still smiled and said: "Han Shan, do you remember the day you interpreted my dream for me?
Let’s talk about it.”
Hanshan's treasured appearance was solemn. He folded his hands and saluted, then turned to face the crowd and said: "In the past, the emperor had a dream, and a poor monk interpreted it. It was the true meaning expressed by the Buddha in the present world. The emperor is the Buddha in the present world. As a common man among Han, Mongolian and Tibetan people,
At the time of Lordship, he will appear in the body of Manjushri Bodhisattva, just like the ancestor of the Yuan Dynasty, our dynasty became the ancestor. When the emperor circles the seven political treasures and becomes the common ruler of the world, he will reveal his true nature - the Tathagata Buddha!"
