In the time of the successors who could not be
aware of the importance of the precautions, they even tried the way of Buddhism's
protection. This condition that progressed with Emperor Siun (452-265), later on totally
speed up and prepared the basis for the Chinesiation of the Tabgaç population. In 493,
Emperor Hong (471-499) transferred the capital from the steppe region to Lo-yang, the old
China's center and he prohibited Turkish traditions, habits and customs, Tabgaç's
language and the use of Turkish expressions in the correspondences in the year of 495. The
reactions against this, that had last for a quarter century had been suppressed. The empress Hu (diea 528) who
had the administration after Kiao (499-517) believed so much in Buddhism that she was in
relation with "coreligionists" living in the foreign countries. Through the year
of 520, Chinese Buddhist priest who visited Mihiragula, the king of Ak-Huns in India, was
travelling by this empress' wishes. Naturally, the government of Tabgaç was losing its
strength. The state divided into two with the name of North (in Tai) and West (in
Cha'ang-an) and there had been struggles between two. After a few time all of their lands
transferred to the Chinese kings (550-556).
