[444] When it was reported that he was living like the son ofthe Great Ming Emperor in peace and security, [445] [Sengge Düüreng] was inclined to reasonableness and extinguished the fires and greatly rejoiced. [446] At the same time, profoundly wise Üijeng Jaisang and Tuguchi Taishi arrived with the Chinese messengers. [447] The Chinese Silang and Dutang, at the head of their lords, said, [448] “When we release and return your son, tarry the siege ofthe city and the Great State will be united!” [449] When their words were transmitted to wise Altan Khan,
