Chapter 75 The Naadam Conference
Chapter 75 �
Zhu Qizhen also knew that frogs should be boiled in warm water and cut their flesh with a blunt knife.
Although the Ming Dynasty had an overwhelming advantage over these Mongolian nobles, if this advantage is used to forcibly abolish the privileges of the Mongolian nobles, there are sequelae.
Even the Borjijin family, after experiencing the incident of Maoriha, Zhu Qizhen was still treated as a prince. It was not because Zhu Qizhen was fascinated by marrying a Mongolian woman, and he did not know the importance of it. But in the eyes of most Mongolian people, Genghis Khan was an eternal god.
Genghis Khan's descendants were the kings of the Mongols.
This tradition is almost deeply rooted and deeply rooted in the bone marrow. Although the changes over the past few decades have shaken the thoughts of many people, it is still a lack of time to make fundamental changes. Moreover, the Mongolians have always been pastoral slaves of Mongolian nobles and the habitual rule of Mongolian nobles.
The Mongolian nobles alone were never worthy of Zhu Qizhen's concern. However, the entire Mongolian people were worthy of Zhu Qizhen's concern.
If Zhu Qizhen did not want to kill all the Mongolian aristocrats with a fierce earth-shaking revolution, Zhu Qizhen could only wait, and the Mongolians later lost their previous traditions.
Of course, the Mongolians forgot about Genghis Khan in their hearts. It was a matter that the Mongolian nobles were useless to the Ming Dynasty.
At that time, there was no problem with them no matter how they were pinched.
It's just that it will be a long process.
This is not the time.
The next morning.
Zhu Qizhen had just gotten up, but when he heard Huaien come to report that General Yang and King Hue were asking for a meeting outside, he had been waiting for a long time.
General Yang is naturally Yang Zhen. As for King Hue, it is not the contemporary head of the Borjijin family. Borjijin Molun. The King of the Ming Dynasty is only in his early twenties. Another reason why he was disobedient by the Mongolian nobles was that he claimed to be the grandson of Tutububuhua. However, Tutububuhua's sons almost all died at the hands of the Wats, and what he said is very doubtful.
It's just that apart from the Maori kid, it's him.
After the Maori family was killed, there was no choice.
In this way, the King of Hue could only hold the Ming Dynasty's thighs tightly.
Please wait,
The King of Hue immediately gave a great gift and said, "Your Majesty, Da Ning, we are very grateful to the emperor's grace. Please wait for your Majesty in Da Ning and personally visit the Nadam Conference, so that all Mongolian tribes can feel the great grace."
After hearing this, Zhu Qizhen glanced at Qiu Jun, who was standing beside him, and said, "I remember, shouldn't Na Damu be in July and August?"
Even in modern times, the Nadam Conference is still very different from ancient times. It is said that the Nadam Conference was created by Genghis Khan. It was originally an activity to come to military parades, inspect soldiers, and prepare for war. It is usually in July and August, when the autumn is clear and the horse is fat and the bow is strong.
The King of Hue said, "Your Majesty is here, why should you care about the season?"
Zhu Qizhen heard this and didn't say anything. He was used to this treatment. He looked at Qiu Jun.
Qiu Jun came out and said, "Your Majesty, the King of Hue is very strong in his intentions. I think Your Majesty should not smear the good intentions of the King of Hue."
The reason why Qiu Jun said this is not because he had anything to do with the King of Hue. But from the perspective of appeaseing the Mongolian nobles, most civil servants are not used to using tyrannical means to deal with problems. They prefer to be harmonious.
Zhu Qizhen said: "Okay, but I won't stay here for too long. Is it enough?"
The King of Hue said: "Enough, enough, please rest assured by Your Majesty."
Zhu Qizhen pondered for a moment and said, "Huai'en."
Huai'en said, "I'm here."
Zhu Qizhen said: "Let Ma Yong select the warriors in the army, and also participate in the Namuda Conference and have fun with the people."
Huaien agreed immediately.
The King of Hue was very efficient. In almost a day, he gathered all the Mongols near Daning. In addition, there were about hundreds of thousands of people in Daning, which made the inside and outside of Daning lively. It looked more lively than the festival. However, the venue of the Muda Conference was not in the open space in the city, but outside the city.
A large number of Mongolians, one tent after another, almost covered the grassland outside.
The army of Daning and the guards brought by Zhu Qizhen were almost fully dispatched.
Zhu Qizhen himself did not think that there would be any problems at this conference. After all, the Mongolian nobles did not have the courage to do so. But the people around Zhu Qizhen were extremely nervous, fearing that they would not be able to afford to take advantage of it.
The Nadam Conference added various events in later generations, but in ancient times it was quite simple to achieve the opponent, with only three events. Wrestling, horse racing, and archery are all useful skills in the army.
This made Zhu Qizhen want to go, in order to implement his influence in the army, the meeting of shooting willows held in Nanhaizi.
Both were similar, so Zhu Qizhen simply ordered one or two to change the archery item to shooting willows.
This change is completely fine for the Mongolians.
So on the day of the official competition, Zhu Qizhen, Qiu Jun and other ministers were sitting on the high wooden platform. Under the platform, Ma Yong personally brought hundreds of guards, wearing iron armor and sun-like power, all the armor fell down, as if he was already in a wartime state.
Once there is a change, Ma Yong can guarantee that they can immediately change to wartime state.
It’s not that Ma Yong is very thoughtful.
But this scene is too lively.
For the Mongols, the Nadam Conference has not been so lively for a long time. After the Mongols entered the Ming Dynasty, there was the Ming Dynasty's trade and the silage law to reform the animal husbandry industry. Even if there was still no oppression from the Mongolian nobles, their lives were better than those of the day in general.
I am still grateful to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.
Besides, the Mongolian nobles also understood that they were in a suspicious place, so there was Concubine Zhuang in the palace, but recently, Concubine Zhuang and his son were obviously not in the position of the great throne, so they naturally wanted to work harder to preserve their status. Even if it was lively, they would find ways to make them lively.
Not to mention that we already have such a lively foundation, as long as we use some strength, the Mongolian people, almost all men, women, and young and old, will naturally participate.
Moreover, the Nadam Conference itself has a traditional custom of looking at men and women.
But I saw a large Mongolian man shirtless and warming up. The people around me were in circles, and many people couldn't see what was going on on the field, and they even provoked it high or found something to step on. This kind of excitement came to me, and even people who didn't know how to survive and die were forced to break into the scene near Zhu Qizhen's stands.
But Zhu Qizhen came down to have the will to have fun with the people.
Ma Yong could not do anything, let alone hurt these people. He could only do this to prevent any unexpected disaster.
Zhu Qizhen never had any life-and-death duel with anyone in his life, but he still had some knowledge of the art of fighting with archery, horse, swordsman, and swordsman.
At this moment, he put the Qianlijing in front of him, just like he was watching football games in later generations. He looked at the horse racing, wrestling, and playing against shooting willows, and was very happy for a moment. He didn't care what Ma Yong was worried about.
A game was naturally exciting, and Mongolian warriors from all sides made up their minds to show their best condition in front of the Emperor Ming Dynasty. Similarly, Zhu Qizhen let the good men in the army end, and these good men in the army definitely did not want to be defeated. These people were all under Ma Yong. However, Ma Yong's headquarters was selected from the Beijing camp to protect the emperor on patrol.
I dare not say that it represents the highest level in the army, but it is also the top level.
It also represents the face of the army, so naturally he will not be at a disadvantage.
Whether it is equestrian, riding, or shooting, both sides are almost desperate, and many people are really angry, especially in wrestling.
Equestrian and archery are not indirect confrontation after all, and there is almost no direct confrontation, but wrestling is different. One by one, they want to take the other's life. If the emperor hadn't watched it on it, they would probably have blood splattered on the spot today.
The people who were watching did not care about the mood of the people who fought above. They only felt that today's game was particularly exciting, and they shouted loudly to cheer for the players they supported.
The conference lasted for three consecutive days, and there were more and more people, and even people from other places rushed over to see it from afar.
Zhu Qizhen gave the winners of these three projects a hundred households and included them in martial arts. He also set rules. From then on, the government sent people to preside over the annual Nadam Conference, and every winner could enter martial arts to study, thus being called a member of the reserve officers of the Ming army.
After all, even if you can have the ability to stand out from so many Mongolians, even if you can't learn anything, you can be a brave general who will fight in the face of battle.
The entire Nadam Conference allowed Zhu Qizhen to stay here for several days. Naturally, he could not stay here for too long. He summoned the Mongolian nobles and said, "I am already very at ease when I come north this time and see you living and working in peace and contentment. But I still have to say some things. The grassland is the foundation of the lives of the people of Han and Mongolia, so protecting the grassland is something that anyone must do. If we cannot pass on this grassland to future generations, how can we be as destined as the ancestors? It is not as good as the northwest, when the desert rushes straight to the foot of the Great Wall, we know that we regret it, right?"
"I'm afraid it will be too late to pass on my decree and let the Han and Mongolian people know that no matter who turns the grassland into a desert, they will recover. If they cannot recover, they will be punished with serious crimes, Qiu Jun."
Qiu Jun said, "I am here."
Zhu Qizhen said: "The order of the commander to join the law of the Ming Dynasty. It is a metaphor for the world."
Qiu Jun said: "Yes."
Zhu Qizhen also knew that many things were not just the next order. There were still many things to do later, but Zhu Qizhen could do it now.
