Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The emergence of the eleventh member of the Taoist sect, Hedao, has a very obvious deterrent effect on the Buddhist sect. Many of the so-called "bottom lines" that Tianlongyuan originally insisted on during the negotiation process were shattered by this news.

    When it comes to October, most of the terms are similar. There is only one issue that remains unresolved, which is the issue of Tubo and Beiyuan.

    In fact, Tianlongyuan has always represented Tubo and Beiyuan. Therefore, Dongfang Li's negotiations and even Zhao Ran's visit were about a comprehensive plan, including the issues of the three major Buddhist kingdoms and many vassal Buddhist kingdoms in the Western Regions.

    Tubo and Beiyuan also hope to enter the Chaos Immortal Realm to extend their lives by "buying tickets and land", but they hope that when they move, the monks will enter in the name of each Xixia sect instead of their original identities. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty and them do not agree.  There is a contracting relationship.

    "But Oriental Rites does not recognize this form. Without a formal agreement, there will be various lawsuits and disputes in the future, and Tubo and Beiyuan will become two loopholes.

    The reason lies in the practice methods of Tubo and Beiyuan Buddhism. They firmly believe in reincarnation. If the eminent monks go to the chaotic fairyland to extend their lives, what will happen to the practice of reincarnation?

    Dongfang Li said that since you want to insist on the theory of reincarnation, then don't enter the chaotic fairyland, but Tubo and Beiyuan disagreed.

    Dongfang Li said when communicating with Zhao Ranfei: "This is really ridiculous. To put it bluntly, they just want to put up a fig leaf."

    Zhao Ran agreed with Dongfang Li¡¯s point of view. If the two countries do not sign an agreement, it will indeed be a loophole in the performance of the contract. If the other party tries to skirt the ball in the future, it will be difficult to refute.  But he was not very worried about this. He told Dongfangli: "Any agreement itself has no validity. There are only two that have long-term validity. One is win-win and the other is strength. Especially the latter, as long as we know how to deal with it,  If they have the strength, they won't dare to take side kicks. On the other hand, not signing the agreement is not a bad thing for our country. When we punish them in the future, we will have no psychological burden."

    With Zhao Ran¡¯s approval, the Dongfangli team finally finalized the draft agreement with Tianlongyuan in mid-October.

    There are four agreements in total. The "Ming Xia Armistice Treaty" stipulates that the Ming and Xia armies will enter a state of armistice from now on. To show sincerity, the Xia army will retreat thirty miles; both sides will reduce the border troops, reducing them by half in the first year.  In the second year, the remaining troops were reduced by half, and in the third year, all troops were evacuated. No troops were allowed to be stationed within a hundred miles along the border.

    "The Agreement" stipulates that the two parties will open large-scale markets in Xiaojinchuan, Baihe, Heishui City, and Yulin. No commercial tax will be levied on any transactions in the markets. For transactions between the two parties, small-denomination silver notes from the Ming Dynasty will be used.

    The "Post Agreement" stipulated that the two parties should establish a mutual trust mechanism, set up post houses in Xingqing and Yingtian, and send post ministers to each other.

    ¡°The Preaching Prohibition Agreement¡± stipulates that neither party shall preach publicly in the territory of the other party, nor may they force members of the other party to believe.

    In addition to the four draft agreements, the two parties also signed a memorandum, stipulating various matters for the visit of Zhao Ran, the true Buddhist monk, to Xingqing. One of the most important ones is to absolutely ensure the safety of the true Buddhist monk.

    The relevant draft agreement and memorandum were submitted to the true masters of the True Master Hall. After approval by the true masters, Zhao Ran was authorized to go to Xingqing to sign the contract.

    On November 8, a special plane dispatched by Junshan Airlines flew into the territory of Xixia from the sky above Baihe. The first Hongdaocheng flying instrument of Tianlongyuan Xuanye Hall was guided from the front, headed north to Xingqing, and landed in the square in front of the Xixia Palace.

    Master Yinguang led the heads of the Tianlongyuan halls to greet the palace. Accompanying him were the abbots and abbots of major temples in Xingqing, Da Luze of several major Xixia tribes, Princess Rou'an, Gao Yanei and other Xixia dignitaries.  and Crown Prince Li Renxiao, etc., totaling hundreds of people.

    Zhao Ran walked down the ramp of the flying magic weapon step by step. Master Yin Guang greeted him first. The monks stood face to face three feet apart and saluted each other.  Thunderous praises and applause suddenly erupted in front of the entire palace.

    After a brief meeting with the Xixia monks and dignitaries waiting in the square, Zhao Ran entered the palace according to the protocol. He first met with the king Li Qianshun. The white-haired Li Qianshun waited at the steps of the Golden Palace and personally led Zhao Ran into the Daqing Palace.  .

    After exchanging greetings, enjoying the elegant music, and completing the brief meeting ceremony, Li Qianshun sent Zhao Ran out of the Daqing Hall. A group of eminent monks accompanied Zhao Ran on a tour of Jinbo Lake, and then entered the Jinbo Auction House.

    Cheng'an, the owner of Jinbo Auction House, served as the guide and took Zhao Ran and his entourage to visit the bulk goods wholesale site, auction table, real-time commodity price signs, and on-site observation of an auction in which Liang Xingxia, who has been in his seventies, made a special comeback today.

    After the auction, Zhao Ran said: "I still remember that in the 22nd year of Jiajing, Pindao was the envoy of the Ming Dynasty. He came to Jinbo Auction House at that time and was full of praise for this unique business model in Xingqing. Returning to his hometown today is really a blessing.  FeelingA lot.  This trading model created by the Chengdong family is something I would like to learn from in Da Ming. I wonder if I can ask the Chengdong family to follow me back to Da Ming and set up one in the capital?  Cheng Dongjia, you have been away from your homeland for so many years, you must also miss your hometown, right?  "

    Zhao Ran patted the back of Cheng An's hand and asked cordially, but his eyes turned to the eminent monks in Tianlongyuan. Shen Xiu stepped forward and said: "Dong Cheng's family has worked hard and made outstanding contributions to Xingqing's business. We have always been grateful.  Yes, I can't bear to let him leave. But Hongfa Zhenren has a compassionate heart, and it makes sense. After being away from home for many years, it's time to go back and have a look. Even if we are reluctant to let him go, we must understand and support him."

    Zhao Ran said with a smile: "Well, let's pack up our luggage and go back together on the day of Pindao's return voyage. I can also study and discuss with the Chengdong family on the way."

    That night, Zhao Ran left Xingqing City and stayed at Cuiming Mountain in the west of the city. On the mountain is the Tianmatai Temple Villa and the beautiful Cuiming Villa.  Staying here, one has better conditions, and the other is being accompanied by masters Long Ji and Long Yang who are in the realm of Bodhisattvas. At the same time, there are Wu Cheng Buddha Tuo and Wu Lan Bodhisattva in Jialan Temple not far away, so you are safe and worry-free.

    On November 9, Zhao Ran attended the exhibition of calligraphy works of mountain guests held by Princess Rou'an. The eminent monks, dignitaries and celebrities who like calligraphy and painting in Xixia gathered together to appreciate the two calligraphy works that Princess Rou'an had spent thirty years carefully collecting.  Seventeen works of mountain visitors.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of curiosity, Zhao Ran wrote seven words with a splash of ink and presented them to Princess Rou'an - smile at each other and forget the grudges.

    On November 10, Zhao Ran visited famous temples in Xingqing such as Gaotai Temple, Jietai Temple, and Buddha Temple. Wherever he went, he was warmly welcomed by the monks of each temple.

    Especially in Gaotai Temple and Buddha Temple, when he learned that a monk from each of the two temples was approaching his longevity, he immediately stated that he would allow them to move to the Chaos Fairyland next year without occupying the relocation quota of Tianlong Temple.  The promise immediately won the great favor of the monks of the two temples. The disciples of the two Arahant monks who had arrived in Shouyuan knelt down in front of Zhao Ran and thanked Master Hongfa for his great mercy!
