Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 458 There are always surprises
It was Huang MaGua who returned to the palace who heard rumors in the palace that before his death, Huang Taiji actually had a last word to designate the heir to the throne.

As soon as Aobai heard this, he immediately inquired in detail about what happened to Huang Taiji before his death.Of course, this situation has actually been asked before, but I didn't pay attention at the time. When I can go to check it now, I really have a clue.

Therefore, under the discussion of many princes of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, Obai said to Dai Shan and others: "Before the emperor died, he must know who will inherit the throne. After waking up, there was an appointment, saying the word Concubine Zhuang. The servants didn't care about it before, but now they realize that what the late emperor meant was to let the prince born to Concubine Zhuang be the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty!"

When Hauge heard this, he immediately jumped up and shouted: "That little brat Fulin? Are you crazy? How is it possible that he will become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty!"

Dai Shan had also inquired about Huang Taiji's situation before his death, but he didn't pay attention to this at the time, but when he was told by Ao Bai, his heart suddenly moved.He glanced at the angry Hauge, the disdainful Duduo and his son Yuetuo, then looked at Dorgon and Azig with twinkling eyes, and said in his heart, "That's right, that's what the late emperor should be like." Arranged. Prince Fulin is indeed young, but he is a malleable talent. Before he came to power, didn't the previous emperor also order the kings to discuss politics? This has been made clear long ago, and it is arranged like this!"

During Huang Taiji's serious illness, he indeed made a decree, saying that all matters in the court should be discussed by the kings, and then reported to Huang Taiji for decision.

However, if the emperor's position is really determined to be succeeded by Fulinlai, the practice of father's death and son's succession is basically set, and other non-Huang Taiji descendants will have no chance at all.Therefore, everyone present, except Daishan, was actually unwilling.

Upon seeing Ao Bai, he immediately strode up to Azig.

When Azige saw it, he turned his head, and he didn't want to pay attention to Oboi.He didn't even need to ask, he knew what Aobai wanted to say when he came here.

However, Ao Bai didn't care, just came to him, got very close, and when Azig wanted to get angry, he heard Ao Bai whispered in a voice that only he could hear: "How did Prince Zheng die? Say it?"

When Azig heard this, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, he opened his eyes wide and stared at Ao Bai, his face was still a little pale.

At this time, he naturally knew that Obai must know the truth of the matter, otherwise, it would not be possible for him to suddenly say this for no reason.

Indeed, Oboi is Huang Taiji's confidant. The briefing Chen Shaozong got from Lu Xiangsheng at the beginning was handed over to Geng Zhongming and then in Huang Taiji's hands. Oboi also saw it.

It's just that I didn't expect that it could be used to threaten Azig now.

"What's going on?" Doduo immediately asked as soon as he saw that something was wrong.

Azige knew that if he persisted and refused to support Fulin's succession, Ao Bai would definitely speak out.Killing Jierhalang with his own hands was to let the emperor of the Ming Dynasty release him to kill Huang Taiji, no matter what point it was, it would be fatal to him.

Therefore, under Aobai's staring eyes, Azig said with an extremely ugly face: "It's nothing, I want to pass it. For the future of the Qing Dynasty, it is best for Prince Fulin to succeed to the throne. I agree!"

Among the people here, who doesn't understand who, Azig's words like this must have something to do with what Ao Bai said in a low voice.But, no matter what, at least Azig has expressed his position.

When Daishan saw it, he immediately stared at another prince who had no military power, that is, Dorgon, and said, "You have always been valued by the late emperor and praised you as a rare and rational general in the Qing Dynasty. The loss of [-] soldiers of the Qing Dynasty did not condemn you. In the Battle of Tashan, your entire army was wiped out, and even affected the situation in the Korean War. In this way, the first emperor just imprisoned you in the clan mansion. The current situation in the Qing Dynasty In times of crisis, I let you out to tide over the country together. With all these things, do you want to be worthy of the kindness of the late emperor?"

The kindness of the first emperor?Hehe, when Huang Taiji suppressed them back then, if he hadn't kept a low profile, he would probably have eliminated them like Amin and Mang Gurtai.Dorgon thought in his heart, but sneered.But there was one thing he couldn't deny.After Huang Taiji ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he was really kind to him.Just what Daishan said, if it were someone else, it would definitely not be treated like this.

This matter, if Daishan said it today, it will definitely be spread to everyone in the future.In this way, if he still doesn't agree with Fulin being the emperor, his reputation in the Qing Dynasty will be bad.

Thinking of this, Dorgon couldn't help sighing in his heart.I can only think that I currently have no military power, which is my shortcoming.Fortunately, Fulin was still young, even if he was agreed to be the emperor, there were still many years before he took charge, and with his intelligence, he should still have a chance.

Thinking about it this way, after weighing the pros and cons, Dorgon glanced at Duo Duo and had no choice but to say: "Since the late emperor has a decree, let's do it according to the late emperor's will!"

In this way, among the people present, Obai, Daishan, Azig and Dorgon all supported Fulin's succession to the throne, and the remaining three, Haoge, Duoduo and Yuetuo, each had their own interests. There is no way to unite, and in the end, there is only a compromise.

Therefore, with great inertia in history, Fulin finally ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.However, Dorgon was originally the regent, but now, it is the kings who discuss politics, and they are all regents.

With such a result, if Huang Taiji really has a spirit in the sky, he doesn't know if he will die of anger!When he woke up, what he cared most about was not the heir to the throne, but the safety of Hai Lanzhu.When he said the word Zhuang Concubine, he actually wanted to kill Zhuang Concubine.Fortunately, this concubine Zhuang has become the queen mother, and her son has become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty!
In fact, the reason for such a result is not accidental.

Bumbutai was a smart man, knowing that Huang Taiji wanted to kill her, so he acted first without any trace.After that, she was worried that what Huang Taiji said would be unfavorable to her, so she did everything possible to find out the details before Huang Taiji's death. According to the current situation, she found an opportunity from it, and began to spread in the palace what Ao Bai heard. talk.In the end, she got her wish!
At the same time, her confidant female official died suddenly, and under her power, no one pursued it.In the harem, Bumbutai is ultimately respected, and Zhezhe has to stand aside.

Afterwards, Dorgon also began to show that he was considered a more powerful side among Jianlu, and immediately began to take the lead in how to deal with the Ming Dynasty based on the current situation.Others are really inferior to him in this respect.

"The strength of the Qing Dynasty must be supplemented more. However, the Ming Dynasty is strong, and the Han people are no longer reliable." Dorgon talked eloquently at the meeting of the six kings, "Therefore, our Qing Dynasty should conquer the Sauron tribe again, Use this to supplement my Qing army!"

The Sauron tribe is still in the northern part of the Qing Dynasty. According to the original history, it will wait until February of the 16th year of Chongzhen to conquer the Sauron tribe for the third time. But on this plane, under Dorgon's suggestion, There is this thing ahead of time.

No one else has any objections to Dorgon's suggestion.

In fact, after Daishan experienced the battle for the heir apparent, his body became worse than before, as if all the energy he had saved was consumed in that matter.Therefore, the six kings were basically absent from the discussion of state affairs. If they really couldn't be absent, they just dozed off there.

Without Daishan in charge, Dorgon relied on his ability and eloquence to bully the rest of the people, such as Hauge, Azig and others, which was more than enough.That is to say, Yue Tuo would occasionally compete with him.However, there is a seniority gap between the two, and Dorgon has Duoduo to help, so although he has no military power, he can take the initiative.

The matter of the Northern Expedition to Sauron was settled in this way.He is even willing to personally lead the army northward in this severe cold season, and let him do this.

Regarding the events that happened in Liaodong, they did not go according to the plot he expected, which made Emperor Chongzhen a little regretful.However, it's just a bit of a pity, but the threat is out of the question.

Don't say that Huang Taiji is dead, even if he is not dead, it is still the same that Jianlu is getting worse day by day.What's more, among the six princes of Jianlu, Dorgon, Azig, and Daishan have all received the first-level wiretapping seeds, and they can grasp most of Jianlu's decisions in real time.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen stopped thinking about Liaodong affairs. When he arrived in the capital a few years ago, it was time for a good New Year.

This time, Emperor Chongzhen did not explain in advance when the emperor drove out of Beijing. Otherwise, he would take more than 1 troops and go across the sea to Liaodong. A large group of people would definitely die.

But it's already back, so there's no need to hide it.Immediately announced the death of the slave chief Huang Taiji, and widely publicized the deeds of Geng Zhongming and Chen Shaozong's mother.Regarding the entry of Geng Zhongming's spirit into the Martyrs' Shrine, he personally explained the matter and held it grandly.As for the deeds of Chen Shaozong's mother, Queen Zhou not only asked Empress Zhou to meet her, reward her with high honors, but also ordered the Jiaofang Secretary to write a script for Chen Shaozong's mother and put it on the opera stage.

All of a sudden, these three things were the hottest in this new year of Ming Dynasty: Emperor Chongzhen was angry with the slave chief Huang Taiji; It is a model for Ming Dynasty.

Just like that, the 15th year of Chongzhen passed like this, and the 16th year of Chongzhen came.

At the beginning of the new year, apart from sending orders to Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou to inform them about the internal situation of Jianlu and to infiltrate the hinterland of Liaodong, Emperor Chongzhen focused on internal affairs.

Since he returned to Beijing, the most important thing is naturally agriculture, that is, the issue of food.After reading the memorials, Emperor Chongzhen discovered a problem.

That is, although he vigorously promoted high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes, and built water conservancy and other measures, the food problem has not been alleviated.The reason, the reason he finally came up with, turned out to be an economic problem.

Daming's agriculture is basically a combination of farming and mulberry.Especially on Daming's side, this situation is even more obvious.

For a long time, there has been a problem of mulberry competing for rice fields in the Ming Dynasty, probably because planting mulberry, cotton, silkworm, sheep and growing food crops is more profitable than growing food crops.Especially in recent years, when the imperial court has made great efforts to ensure that there is no shortage of food, the people are more willing to grow cash crops.

According to estimates, the ratio of labor required for planting mulberry and silkworms to planting rice is about 100:5. This data was estimated by Sun Quan, a native of Gui'an during the Wanli period, and it is similar now during the Chongzhen period.That is to say, when the labor force of Ming Dynasty was developing cash crops, not only was it not liberated from the farmland, but more manpower was devoted to farming.

The consequences of doing so are firstly that the original provinces with large grain output, such as Huguangshu, the world is full, have long since become a thing of the past; even the Taihu Lake area has changed from exporting grain to importing grain from other provinces. .As a result, disadvantages such as insufficient arable land, insufficient labor, insufficient animal power, insufficient fertility, and insufficient meat food all appeared.

Emperor Chongzhen felt a headache when he saw this conclusion.In his imagination, it is to release the labor force from agriculture, engage in industry and commerce, and engage in other industries, so that Daming can embark on the road of industrialization.However, the current result is backfired!

If violent means are used to solve this problem, it is likely to turn into a notorious enclosure movement.Emperor Chongzhen didn't want to do this.In this case, we can only rely on economic means to adjust.

Based on this idea, Emperor Chongzhen began to consult the situation of state-owned enterprises with loans in the two capitals and thirteen provinces of Ming Dynasty.Needless to say, the state-owned enterprises in the south of the Yangtze River also set their sights on businesses such as silk and cotton.

In this regard, Emperor Chongzhen agreed, and encouraged the expansion of production, and improved production tools and other methods, so that the supply of silk and cotton silk would exceed the demand. If the value drops, it will naturally reduce the people of Ming Dynasty to take the initiative Be proactive in this regard.

Of course, this process does not happen overnight and requires a long-term process.

In addition, after Emperor Chongzhen inspected the factory that Song Yingxing had been working on, he felt that the time was ripe, so he decided to display it, and then began to mass-produce this most basic and most extensive thing nationwide.

On this day, Emperor Chongzhen specially held a grand court meeting for this purpose.

Although it is still February weather, the cold wind is blowing very cold.However, Emperor Chongzhen had already revealed the content of this court meeting a little bit.Therefore, although all the officials were suffering from the cold, they were all in high spirits, thinking, what exactly is the emperor talking about, is it very profitable?How profitable is it?Very useful?How useful is it?
Anyone would definitely be curious and interested in such a thing.

Therefore, when Emperor Chongzhen came and saw the ceremony, the first assistant Xue Guoguan asked them what they wanted on behalf of the officials.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly, and just waved his hand to Wang Chengen, the eunuch on duty beside him.
