Ashes

Standing in front of him, Huang Taiji looked at him in astonishment: "What's the matter, you look lost?"

Do you look that bad?Dorgon touched his cheek, but he stopped him when he wanted to leave.

"How did you make it like this?" Huang Taiji broke his hand away distressedly, his palm was already bloody.

"It's nothing." Dorgon withdrew his hand, but he held it tighter.

Huang Taiji pulled him away without saying a word: "Come back with me, I'll help you with the medicine."

Dorgon couldn't resist him, so he took him back to the Khan Palace. Huang Taiji took out the wound medicine and gauze to treat his wound, and his brows never loosened from the beginning to the end.

The gauze was carefully wrapped tightly on the palm, exuding a faint medicinal aroma, and there was still a faint feeling of pain.

This scene seems familiar, when did it happen?Was it when he also bandaged himself like this?My memory is a little fuzzy, I can't remember clearly.

His movements are still so proficient, and he didn't waste it because of sweating profusely. Dorgon stared closely at the movements of his hands, and some messy thoughts flooded his mind.

"Even if Amin said some stupid things, you don't have to be so angry, you are not such a person who can't hold back." Huang Taiji's words were full of worry.

If Amin scolded ordinary words, Dorgon would certainly not bother to get angry, but his words touched a sore foot, and he couldn't control his emotions all at once.Even though more than ten years have passed, the memory is still fresh, making him feel humiliated, and I am afraid it will be with this life.

A warm hand covered his cheek, and when he raised his eyes, it was Huang Taiji's worried face.

"What's the matter with you? I didn't respond when I talked to you. I thought you would be happy after seeing Amin."

"I'm really fine, when were you waiting there?"

"I was there when I entered from Jierharang. I was afraid that he would be too sad, but he looked very calm, but you seemed to have lost your soul."

Dorgon clenched his fists a few times, seemingly moving his palms, but in fact his mind wandered too far.

"I'm so worried, Dorgon, where did you put so much thought into it?" Huang Taiji's tone was not happy, "I don't like the way you are absent-minded."

"If Jierhalang is sad after seeing Amin, you won't worry about me anymore." Dorgon said without thinking.

Huang Taiji was stunned and said: "Then I will confirm that you will come out before I will enlighten him."

"You'd better go and comfort Jierharang. I heard Amin call him a white-eyed wolf. He looks fine on the surface, but he is probably sad in his heart."

Suddenly Huang Taiji leaned over, wrapped his arms around the back of his neck, and almost touched his own head with his forehead: "What are you talking about? You still tell me to go when you are like this? Are you so unwilling to see me?"

"That's not what I mean, I just want to be alone."

Huang Taiji hesitated for a moment, and said domineeringly: "No, why be quiet, the more bored you are, the more tempered you will be."

"You actually said that I was bored, and you are the one who likes to sulk, right?"

"I don't eat at most, how can it be like you always hurt yourself and hurt your hands?"

"Is it self-harm if you don't eat? Don't you know that when you are starving yourself, many people are very anxious? They are all circling around the door in a hurry! You can't see it when you are locked in the house."

"But I don't think you're in a hurry."

"I'm also anxious. They all stare at me and ask me to persuade you, as if my words are useful."

"What do you think?"

"Eat one less meal and you won't die."

"what?"

"I mean, it's not good if it affects the dragon body."

"That's about the same, and I will think so in the future."

Dorgon shook his hand: "I'm too lazy to tell you more."

He got up and was about to leave, but was hugged by Huang Taiji.

"Dorgon, I know there are some things you don't want to talk to people about, but I want you to understand that no matter what happens, I'm willing to be with you." His voice was deep and gentle right next to his ear.

Dorgon turned his head to meet his eyes, those eyes were as affectionate as water and as hot as fire, as if they contained enormous power, just like the army he commanded, the siege of the city was invincible.Dorgon's thinking stopped suddenly, and different emotions spread.

"I...cough cough..." Dorgon was extremely embarrassed, "I'm a little confused now, I really want to be alone for a while, so I'd better go first."

After he finished speaking, he speeded up, walked faster and faster, and disappeared after a while.

Ten days later, Amin died suddenly in prison, and Ji Erhalang was devastated. No one knew what happened, but the strange thing was that the last person who saw Amin was Mang Guji's servant Leng Seng However, in the end, he didn't find out the reason, so he could only think that he died of grief and anger.

From then on, there was one less person who sat facing south with Huang Taiji. For Dorgon, he also took a step forward.

It is winter in November, and there has been a snowfall, and there is some snow on the ground and in the shade of the treetops.

A wild boar was scurrying around in the woods, sniffing, and stopped under a tree, arching under the roots, as if looking for food.

With a whoosh, a feathered arrow shot out from the forest and pierced fiercely on the wild boar's back. Although the wild boar's skin was rough and fleshy, it still penetrated a few points.The wild boar suffered from pain, howled, jumped and jumped, and ran wildly towards the depths of the jungle.

Another feathered arrow chased after the wild boar. This time, with the sound of the bowstring trembling, several people rushed out from the forest on horseback, outflanking and chasing in two ways.

The feather arrow hit the target accurately, and the wild boar rolled on the ground in pain, and continued to run without thinking, but it just slowed down, and was chased by the hunters. They stabbed at the wild boar at the same time with long guns It pierced through the boar's body in an instant.

"Khan is so precise in archery!"

"It's my great fortune to be able to read and write profusely!"

Huang Taiji casually handed the bow and arrow to the guards beside him, listening to the flattering words in his ears, he smiled and said nothing.

They came to Zhamu Valley to hunt a few days ago, but it was cold and there were not many prey. Huang Taiji was considering whether to go back early.

Standing not far away, Dorgon couldn't help but feel amused watching the flattery around him.

"Brother, what are you looking at?" Dodo rode up to him.

"It's nothing." Dorgon looked away, "Come on, let's go see what prey there is."

He went around with Duoduo, hunted some small wild animals, but didn't gain much. When he came back, the guards told him that Da Khan had ordered him to return to Shenyang tomorrow.

"Go back so soon?"

"Khan said, it's too cold to hunt wild animals, so it's better to go back early."

Dorgon looked around as if he was looking for something, and the guard said, "Khan also sent someone to send a rabbit. I put it in the back. Do you want to marry it for you to see?"

"No, I cooked and ate tonight. I'll go out again now."

It has almost become a routine. Every time the hunt is about to end, Huang Taiji will send a rabbit over, and Dorgon is not polite, and they all go into his stomach.

As he approached Huang Taiji's tent, he heard some unpleasant voices coming from inside.

"It's my subordinates who didn't obey the rules. I'll teach him a lesson when I get back." It was Mangurtai who spoke.

Huang Taiji said indifferently: "Whoever hunted it should be the one who hunted it, wantonly snatching things from the people below, how can they survive? How can we achieve great things? Don't think it's a small matter, big mistakes are not all one Did little things accumulate?"

"Yes, you are right, I will return the things immediately."

Dorgon waited outside for a long time before Mangurtai came out. His complexion was not very good. Dorgon couldn't help but glanced a few more times before he opened the curtain and went in.

Seeing that it was Dorgon, Huang Taiji smiled on his tense face.

"I have received the rabbit, so I came here to thank you." Dorgon sat down in front of him, "You don't have to give the rabbit every time, let's have something new."

"You still pick and choose."

Dorgon glanced outside: "What happened to Sanbeile? It doesn't seem very happy."

"I heard that one of his servants robbed a soldier of deer and pigs and gave them to him, so I said a few words to him." Huang Taiji raised his face again, "He is a big Baylor, but he is always so ignorant Proper, but also bullying soldiers."

"Since it was done by his servant, he may not have known about it in advance."

"If it wasn't for his connivance, how could those servants do evil and pretend to be powerful?"

Huang Taiji has become more and more dissatisfied with Mang Gurtai recently, and often finds fault with him in some trivial matters.As early as when he attacked Beijing, he miscommanded the battle of Guangqumen. Although Huang Taiji did not say anything wrong with him, he withdrew his command and personally commanded the left-wing four banners.After solving Amin, the spearhead was vaguely pointed at Mang Gurtai.

Mang Gurtai's reaction was relatively slow, and he still felt that Huang Taiji and him were his closest brothers. At first, he didn't feel anything, but as the number of times increased, it was inevitable that he began to complain.

On the contrary, Daishan became more and more cautious in doing things, following Huang Taiji everywhere, leaving almost nothing to talk about.

Amin's death did not bring him much pleasure of revenge. He thought it might be because of Amin's bad words before his death, but this did not affect his next actions.When Er Niang was struggling before being buried, the scene of Mang Gurtai rushing forward to pinch her ferociously is still fresh in his memory.

While the two were talking, Dundari came to report that Mangurtai sent someone to send a pig as an apology.Huang Taiji asked again, it turned out that Mang Gurtai just sent back the snatched deer, and borrowed flowers to present pigs to Buddha.

This time flattering was on the horse's feet, Huang Taiji said coldly: "Does he think I'm the same as him? Return the things."

Seeing Huang Taiji's changing face, Dorgon couldn't stop snickering.

He knew that a new round of blood relative battle would begin again.
