Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 165 Sarula Bilig Khan (Part )
The messenger of the divine monk was none other than Ganden Tripa, the highly respected leader of the Gelug sect and abbot of Ganden Monastery. The old monk was over sixty years old, and his status in the sect was second only to those two great monks. When such a high-level monk came, he was expected to see him, but Suletan refused to see him. The reason was that he felt cold and unwell, so he ordered Dr. Zhongreheman, the head guest of the Ministry of Rites, to take him to the back tent to rest first.

Wind chill? I heard that this young man is only twenty-five years old this year. How can someone at such a young age get this disease? The old monk was suspicious, so he asked Reheman sideways, "Huitai is in the prime of spring and autumn, so how can it catch wind and cold?"

Na Reheman turned out to be a talker, "Master doesn't know something. When we attacked Kashgar, our Huitaiji got Gulishatiyanji that bloomed like flowers. The two of them often went out hunting. It was windy outside. I accidentally contracted the cold."

"So that's it. The old monk should pray to the Buddha to bless Huitai Ji for a speedy recovery," the old monk said, but he became increasingly disbelieving in his heart. How could Sultan Hutaiji be so arrogant that he could be obsessed with beauty and abandon his military affairs to hunt all day long? How could a young man who had grown up facing the cold wind outside the Great Wall possibly catch wind-chill when the wind blew him? After all, he was an eminent monk who saw through it but did not say anything about it. He only said that he would pray to the Buddha for it.

"Huntaiji, I told Master Ganden Tripa as you ordered, but looking at his expression, he doesn't seem to believe it." Reheman returned to the tent and reported to Sultan.

The young Huitaiji was confident and said calmly, "It's better if you don't believe it. I just want him not to believe it. You have worked hard, please step back and rest."

"Yes, Huitaiji." Reheman bowed and stepped back, understanding something in his heart.

Because of his suspicion, Ganden Tripa sent people to inquire about Sultan's situation. By coincidence, he learned that the envoy of the anti-Gelug alliance and the great monk of Tianjin of the Sakya sect had arrived in Yarkand.

Huitai Ji welcomed the Tianjin delegation with grand courtesy. Tianjin came with the request of Zangba Khan and Baili Chieftain. The two sides had a secret agreement at the beginning: the Huite people would get Yarkand, Zangba Khan and Baili Chieftain would get Lhasa. Now that the Huite army has captured the entire territory of Yarkand, it is still stuck in the Damu grassland in northern Tibet and refuses to leave. This needs to be explained carefully.

"Excuse me Huitaiji, when will your army withdraw from Damxiong and Zhigong?" Tianjin asked gently.

"Zhigong is still in the hands of the Gelug sect and has nothing to do with me; as for Damxung, the original agreement only said that the Huite tribe would get Yarkand, Zangba Khan and Baili chieftain to get Lhasa. It was only Lhasa, but it did not include Damxung. "The Damu Grassland where it is located", Sultan cunningly replaced the concepts of "Lhasa area" and "Lhasa". If it refers to the Lhasa area in a broad sense, it naturally includes Damxung, but if it refers only to Lhasa, it does not.

"Huntai Ji is an unparalleled hero, how can he not keep his word?" Tianjin felt bitter for a while.

"Haha", Suletan laughed dryly and said: "The great master knows that I once worshiped Sharpa Hutuktu as my teacher, and I can also be regarded as a disciple of Sakya, but Chieftain Baili and Zangba Khan are different. The benefactor sent by us. You can’t help your own people!”

"Amitabha", the great monk from Tianjin shouted the Buddha's name and hesitated for a while.

"During the Great Yuan Dynasty, Sakya was the state religion, and your family has served as the state advisor of the Great Yuan Dynasty for generations. If you can help me conquer the world, I will worship you as my state advisor and I will never break your promise." Seeing his hesitation, Suletan immediately Increased price tag. After more than ten years in charge of the Huite Department, he has grown into a qualified politician and knows how to raise prices at critical moments. "National Master!" When the great monk from Tianjin heard these two words, his eyes could not help but shine with red light. Ever since Kublai Khan met Phagpa, the fifth Sakya patriarch, at Liupan Mountain, the Sakya sect has been serving as the national advisor of Dayuan. Although it is now weak, not as good as Gelug, Kagyu, and Nyingma, the great monk of Tianjin has never forgotten the past glory of his sect.

"What does Huitaiji want me to do?" he asked after calming down.

"I am determined to eliminate Baili Tusi and Zangba Khan. Please persuade various sects and monasteries to help me. At least not help Baili Tusi and Zangba Khan."

"Amitabha, Huitaiji is so ambitious that he wants to be the king of the entire snow-covered plateau!" The great monk from Tianjin was shocked at first, and then said after a long time: "The old monk can give secret orders to the Sakya, Er, and Nalanda monasteries of our sect. , to provide support for the army to enter the snowy region. In addition, the old monk Jigme Dorje, the excavation master of the "Southern Tibetan" method of the Nyingma sect, and the Hutuktu Quyin Dorje of the Kagyu sect are old, and you can persuade them to support you. However, it is easy to convince Jigme Dorje, but it is difficult to convince Quyin Dorje. Now that he has been named a national advisor by Zangba Khan, he probably will not betray Zangba Khan for you."

"Thank you so much, Master! You can tell Quyin Dorje that as long as he is willing to remain neutral, I will not embarrass the Kagyu disciples," Suletan said calmly, but he was ecstatic in his heart. He originally did not have high hopes of persuading the Sakya sect to support him. Unexpectedly, with the word "national preceptor", the great monk of Tianjin immediately agreed. Not only did he order the temples of his sect to support him, he was also willing to lobby Nyingma and Kagyu for him. . What a surprise!

In addition to meeting with the great monk of Tianjin, Sultan also met with the envoys of Dayan Ozil Khan of the Kashote Department. There was an agreement between the two parties at the beginning: the Huite tribe would hand over the small and large Ulan Heshuo, Tianjun, Xinghai and other places to the Heshuote people. As for Dulan, they would hand over the land after seizing the snow territory. Now that the Huite tribe has captured Yarkand, Dayan Eqirhan hurriedly sent people to claim the Dulan grassland. He sent his sixth brother Dorji. Among his ten brothers, Dorji was the most resourceful and the most loved by his old father, the national teacher Khan Tulubaihu.

"See Huetaiji", Dorji looks very delicate, not like a Mongolian, but like a Han, and his speech and behavior are also very gentle and elegant.

However, as a traveler who was familiar with the "History of Four Guards", Suletan knew that this was a ruthless character who was difficult to deal with. In history, he had served as the deputy khan of Heshuote and led the Heshuote people to firmly control Qinghai. . "Oh, which fragrant wind blew Dorji Taiji to my side?" He joked about Dorji, trying to make the atmosphere of the negotiation more relaxed.

"Huntaiji, we had an agreement at the beginning: you will get the snowy area, and the Heshuote tribe will get Qinghai. Now the entire Yarkand territory is in your hands. A rich man with a big family and a big business cannot rely on the poor." Dorzi also joked.

Sultan felt the murderous intention hidden in his words and laughed loudly: "What are you talking about? The oaths of us Mongolians are more precious than gold. As long as the five thousand reinforcements promised by your ministry help me capture Lhasa, I will immediately Order Qinghai Tumian Bandida Gushi and Wanhu Changtuoli to deliver the Dulan Grassland."

"Okay! I will return to the Great and Small Ulan Heshuo and ask my brother to send troops to help you capture Lhasa." Dorji was a happy person and ended the meeting neatly.
