Located on the east side of the presidential compound, the government hall was originally the Jinluan Hall of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and later changed to the hall where New China entertained guests from the Federation and held ceremonies.The three living Buddhas are not foreign guests, so they only stay in foreign hotels, and Qiao Zhiqing does not summon the three of them there.In the main hall, a huge splendid picture of mountains and rivers is hung, and a dark red wool carpet is spread.The dragon chairs on the Jinluan Hall were also dismantled and replaced with sandalwood seats of equal height, which circled in a fan-shaped circle.Qiao Zhiqing and the three living Buddhas entered from both sides of the main hall, walked to the center and folded their hands together to make a Buddhist salute, and then sat down in the position of the guest of honor.Zhang Jia of Inner Mongolia obviously sat close to Qiao Zhiqing, which also shows the current relationship between Inner Mongolia and New China.The Tibetan Panchen Lama sits according to the Inner Mongolia Zhangjia, which also means that Tibet is about to reach an agreement with New China.Sitting on the edge is Outer Mongolia's Jebu Tsundamba Kaizhu Bu Dansang, which is still under the jurisdiction of the Qing court, so it is at the bottom of the list.Although the Qing court had already signed an agreement with Russia to divide Outer Mongolia into Russia.But Outer Mongolia did not recognize the agreement, and Russia has not yet taken action against Outer Mongolia.The three of them are very knowledgeable and familiar with the Chinese language, and Qiao Zhiqing has no obstacles to communicating with them."
Zhangjia Living Buddha, this year's snow disaster in Inner Mongolia, the herdsmen have been properly taken care of.Has the work of the local government done a good job, and has the relief food been distributed" Qiao Zhiqing turned his head with a calm expression and asked Zhang Jia Living Buddha in Inner Mongolia."
Thank you, Your Excellency, all the tribes in Inner Mongolia have received relief from the government.The herders have been properly resettled, and it will not be a problem to survive this winter. ”Zhang Jia Living Buddha bowed to Qiao Zhiqing, and sincerely thanked him with his hands folded."
That's good, both of our clans were bewitched by the Qing court, which caused such a big killing.Now that the power of the Qing court has been completely eliminated in Inner Mongolia, the people of Inner Mongolia should also enjoy equal treatment with the Han Chinese.We are all members of the new China, and the government should do its best to provide disaster relief, and I hope that our two ethnic groups will not kill again, and that Inner Mongolia will truly become a province of the new China. ”Qiao Zhiqing nodded, emphasized the relationship between the two clans, and put all the blame on the Qing court, so that Zhang Jia Living Buddha could relax.The meaning couldn't be clearer, that is, our Huaxing army and the Mongols have no hatred, but only can't get along with the Qing court.However, it is true that if there is no Qing court, Inner Mongolia will not be swept away by the Huaxing army, and only one tribe is left, the Ulanchabu League.Qiao Zhiqing was originally preparing to settle Inner Mongolia peacefully, but he didn't expect it to end in the end by war."
What the President said is that our two clans should indeed put aside their old suspicions in the future, reunite as one, and prosper together" Zhang Jia Living Buddha agreed with Qiao Zhiqing's opinion, and nodded with a smile."
Panchen Living Buddha, thank you for coming to this meeting.Tibet is still nominally controlled by the Qing court, and the Living Buddha has taken such a big risk to come, and this president has deep respect" Qiao Zhiqing turned his head to the Panchen Living Buddha, and he owed him a debt with a respectful face."
Your Excellency President, I am here to seek a way out for the people of Tibet.The Qing court was incompetent and could not safeguard the interests of Tibet, but instead expropriated and extorted money in Tibet, and the opinions of the people were very great.Ever since His Excellency the President sent someone to inform me and the Panchen Living Buddha of the peaceful liberation of Tibet, I have hurriedly sent people out to inquire about your deeds.Whether in Sichuan or Yunnan, the people have a good evaluation of you.That's why I think you are the teachers of benevolence and righteousness, so I personally came to Nanjing to accept your summons.Under your rule, Tibet will also be more peaceful and stable for a long time. ”The Panchen Living Buddha also sincerely confessed and respected Qiao Zhiqing very much."
That's good, since we have a common aspiration, the Tibet issue will be resolved peacefully."
Qiao Zhiqing smiled and nodded, Tibet has the help of the Panchen Living Buddha, and the contradiction of the Huaxing Army is no longer the entire Tibetan people, but the unity of the Tibetan people to resist the Tibetan Tusi and the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty."
That's right, may the dawn of peace always shine on the Han and Tibetan ethnic groups," the Panchen Living Buddha nodded with his hands in unison, also with the hope of a peaceful settlement of Tibet.In the end, only Jebzundamba from Outer Mongolia remained, and Qiao Zhiqing's face suddenly became dark.Looking at this middle-aged living Buddha with regret, he cut directly to the topic and said, "Jebu Tsundamba Living Buddha, I deeply regret what the Manchu government has done to Outer Mongolia.At that time, the tribes of Outer Mongolia suffered great harm to our Huaxing army for the sake of the Manchu Dynasty, and I deeply regret it.This time, the Living Buddha was invited to Nanjing, also for this matter.If the departments of Outer Mongolia need the Huaxing army, we will definitely come to the rescue. ”"Thank you, Your Excellency, that I have come this time with the entrustment of the ministries of Outer Mongolia.Now the Manchu government is mediocre, so they give their children to others.We, the tribes of Outer Mongolia, will not accept such conditions and will resist Russia to the end.They were worried that the president would blame them, so they didn't dare to ask the president for help.Now it seems that they are overly worried, and this is indeed good news for the various ministries of Outer Mongolia" Jebu Zundamba clasped his hands together, and was still a little worried that Qiao Zhiqing would refuse this matter, but now he finally relaxed a little."
Well, I'd like to talk to you all about religion at the end.We in New China abide by the principle of freedom of religious belief and allow the people to believe in any sect and also allow sects to preach and help others.But we are not without conditions, and all this is premised on the premise that religion follows the laws of the country.For example, the religion of the future will exist simply as a denomination, but it will no longer be able to interfere with secular rights.I hope you can understand this, whether it is Tibet, Inner Mongolia, or Outer Mongolia.We in New China regard them as an inseparable part forever, so the leaders of the religious circles.I hope that you will persuade the monasteries to give up all worldly rights and interests, such as land, taxes, and justice.I hope for peace, but I don't promise to give up force" Qiao Zhiqing finally exhorted with a serious face, especially the last sentence, which was loud, although his face was peaceful, but it was all murderous.His meaning is very clear, if you are obedient, you will still have a foothold, and if you are disobedient, you will be uprooted in minutes."
Yes, yes, yes" The three of them were all impressed by his domineering power, and they could all distinguish between good and bad.No one dared to say a word, and all of them nodded hurriedly.In fact, these Buddhists with great wisdom have long since given up their greed for worldly power.But the temples below are not easy to say, because of various interests, everyone wants to make their temples resplendent and incense.The meat that goes into their mouths, even if they open their mouths, is not easy for others to spit out."
Well, the three living Buddhas have come from afar, and they can visit Nanjing for a few days and then go back.You can also exchange Buddhism with the Buddhists in Nanjing, and the monks should devote their hearts to the study of Buddhism" Qiao Zhiqing smiled, bowed to the three of them, got up and went out.The three living Buddhas all clasped their hands together and bowed to Qiao Zhiqing, and they all admired this young man in their hearts.They also all understand now why the vast Qing Empire was eaten away by this young man in front of him little by little, he was really polite and courteous, and had his own set of principles.And it is reasonable, very irrefutable, and heartily surrendered.Qiao Zhiqing then sent someone to inform the abbot of Nanjing Qixia Temple, and this time they were responsible for receiving the three living Buddhas.At the same time, a 7749-day water and land puja was held in Nanjing, so that the three living Buddhas specially preached Tibetan Buddhism to the people in the mainland.These are all in order to increase the opportunities for the Han, Tibetan and Mongolian ethnic groups to understand each other, eliminate their distrust of each other, and better let down their guard and communicate and integrate.This time is the Spring Festival holiday, after the publicity of the Central Daily and major newspapers.Qixia Temple is unprecedented, crowded with people.All the followers of Buddhism heard the wind and came to see the legendary living Buddha.Freedom of religious belief, but Qiao Zhiqing said one religion less, that is, the Islamic religion.He has too deep a prejudice against this religion, a prejudice brought about by the harm done to the Han people for thousands of years.At present, mosques have been demolished in various parts of the country, the spread of Islam has been banned, and all books on Islam have been burned.In Xinjiang, Qiao Zhiqing also reached an agreement with the three living Buddhas to encourage them to preach in the three places, and they were protected by the local government.Xinjiang will also slowly implement the policy of de-Islamism, although there are still major mosques, but they are tightly controlled within a certain range, and all scriptures have been burned.Within a few years, Islam was naturally forgotten in Xinjiang.Xinjiang did not believe in Islam at the beginning, but slowly evolved from shamanism, Zoroastrianism, and Tibetan Buddhism to Islam.Buddhism is obviously more peaceful than Islam.At that time, the Mongolian people who crossed Europe and Asia also accepted Tibetan Buddhism, and later gradually lost their blood.However, Islam has developed from openness and tolerance in the early days to extreme conservatism and xenophobia in later generations, and it is no longer suitable for existence as a faith.Wherever Islamic civilization flourishes, there is violence and terror.Jebtsundamba of Outer Mongolia was anxious about the affairs of the clan, and after the first seven-day water and land puja, he resigned to Qiao Zhiqing and the other two living Buddhas.Under the escort of Huaxingjun, he returned to Outer Mongolia and brought the good news promised by Qiao Zhiqing to everyone.However, as soon as they arrived in Inner Mongolia, they saw a large number of herdsmen fleeing south from the grasslands of Outer Mongolia to Inner Mongolia.Three days earlier, the Qing court had come to Outer Mongolia with Russian officials to issue a decree on the surrender of the territory.Naxun Choktu resolutely did not agree to cede Outer Mongolia to Russia, so he resisted with cavalry of various banners.Russia's 30,000 tsarist army took advantage of the situation to move south, captured Ulaanbaatar, and swept through the major towns of the Outer Mongolian steppe, clamoring to turn Outer Mongolia into a pure land of Russia
