Ashes

At night, in the dead of night, when all the sounds disappear, you can only hear your own heartbeat, and this time is also the time when you feel the most pain.

Dorgon was awakened by the pain. When he woke up, he was covered in cold sweat, and his soaked clothes became cold again in this cold night, and it was indescribably uncomfortable to stick to his body.Because when he woke up in the evening, he thought it was too stuffy in the tent, so he asked Dundari to take out the brazier, thinking that a little cold would numb his nerves, but now he was shivering with cold.

I can't turn over, and when I turn over, my thigh hurts, but I have been lying on my back like this, my limbs are stiff, and I feel uncomfortable anyway.

Just as he was suffering, some sounds suddenly came from outside the tent.

"Khan, are you still awake?" It was Dundari's voice. He was guarding the door, not daring to take a step away.

"Well, I woke up somehow, so I came to see. How is he sleeping?"

"I just went in and looked at it, and I was fast asleep."

"Go and have a look again, I'll be relieved if there's nothing wrong."

Then Dundari carefully opened a corner of the curtain, and slipped in short, fearing that the cold wind outside the tent would blow in.

"Hey, Lord Baylor, are you awake?" Dundari saw Dorgon's eyes widen as soon as he entered the tent.

"Just woke up."

As soon as the words fell, Huang Taiji rushed to the tent and looked at Dorgon worriedly.He told Dundari: "Call the doctor to wait at the door, and bring the medicine."

"Is it too painful?" Huang Taiji asked softly.

Dorgon nodded, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and sat up with difficulty.

Huang Taiji touched his hand: "Why is it so cold?"

He looked around and found that there was no brazier, thinking that the people below were not doing well and were about to get angry. Dorgon explained: "I asked people to take the brazier away."

"Do you want to freeze to death because you don't think it hurts enough?" He touched his forehead again, and there was no fever, which means it is still a good sign.

"What time is it?"

"Ugly time."

"It's so late, if you don't sleep, you won't be able to get up tomorrow."

"Aren't you worried about you? I already fell asleep, but I couldn't sleep well thinking about it."

Dundari came in with a bowl of warm medicine, Huang Taiji took it from him, and ordered him to burn the coals again in the tent.

"Drink the medicine. I guessed that you might be in pain, so I asked the doctor to make an analgesic. I don't know if it will work. You can drink it and talk about it."

After so many years, he is still so careful and thoughtful of everything.

"Shall I feed you?" Huang Taiji smiled slyly.

"Pretentious, I have a leg, not a hand injury." Dorgon laughed and cursed, took the medicine and drank it down.

Huang Taiji asked the doctor to take a look at him again to make sure that everything was fine before he was relieved.

"It's really unlucky to be dragged out of bed by you when he was sleeping soundly." Thinking of the doctor's bewildered eyes, Dorgon felt amused.

"I have treated him kindly by not letting him stay here all night. How do you feel now? Do you want to sleep or wake up? Are you hungry? I also asked someone to prepare porridge, do you want to drink?"

Dorgon couldn't answer the series of questions, so he could only smile slightly, wondering if it was because the coals were burning again, he felt warm all over his body.

"I don't feel sleepy yet."

"Then I'll ask them to bring over the porridge, and you drink it first to warm your stomach."

He also told him to be careful about this and that, but Dorgon never realized that he could be so wordy.

They talked like this, and they didn't go back to sleep until Dorgon felt tired again.

Huang Taiji had some scruples at first, but this time he went to see Dorgon every day. He asked Dorgon to live there several times, so that it would be convenient for him to take care of him, so he didn't have to run around, but Dorgon refused.If he really listened to him and lived in the past, then Duoduo would not die.

Dorgon always felt that Doduo had a strange expression these days. Although he came to accompany him every day, he sat beside him without speaking, kept silent with a straight face, and asked him what happened without saying anything. He looked at himself with strange eyes.Dorgon felt deeply disturbed.

One day Duo Duo didn't come, Dorgon was surprised for a day, although Duo Duo stayed with him for a while as usual the next day, but he looked sluggish and left after sitting for a while.

"It's not convenient for me to go out these few days. Is there anything going on outside?" Dorgon asked Dundari who was waiting beside him.

"What does Lord Baylor want to ask about? It's about state affairs, so I may not understand."

"It's related to Dodo."

Dundari hesitated, and handed Dorgon something slowly: "This matter is not big, and it is not small." Although Dundari is not as insightful as Huang Taiji and Dorgon, However, he has been following Huang Taiji for decades, and he has already become an elite individual, and he has a clear view of the various forces in the country. He knows that sometimes seemingly small things actually involve all aspects behind them.

"What do you think."

"The day before yesterday, Erkechuhuerbeile, Yuetobeile, and Haogebeile were drinking, and they were very drunk. When Khan found out, he was very angry and fined them for ten days. But later he said that Erkechuhu Erbeile wanted to come to accompany you, so he was allowed to come out after being locked up for a day." Erke Chuhuerbeile was referring to Dodo, the Jurchens regarded hunting as marching and fighting, and they would be punished for drinking recklessly.

Dorgon's expression was stiff when he heard this. Duduo, Yuetuo and Hauge, the identities of these three people are so strange that they got together. It's no wonder that Huang Taiji is not angry. You can imagine how angry he must be with Hauge. No wonder Dundari dared not call it a trivial matter.

And similar to Huang Taiji's feelings towards Hauge, Dorgon was also angry that Duoduo didn't listen to him, and instead got mixed up with Yuetuo even more.

"Help me call Duo Duo." Dorgon said.

Dundari responded, but he hesitated and said: "Master Baylor, don't blame me for talking too much, Erke Chuhuer Baylor has a bad temper, you have to follow his temperament, if you just keep training him, I'm afraid He acts even more recklessly."

Dorgon didn't know Duduo's temper, but he had to admit that it was no problem for him to be patient, but he really lacked a little patience for him to be patient and smooth his hair.

Duoduo wondered why he said he had something to do when he went back, and leaned lazily on the chair: "Brother, you look much better than a few days ago, and you will be able to get out of bed in a few days."

"I can't always lie down." Dorgon replied casually, "Duo Duo, what do you think of Yue Tuo?"

"Yue Tuo?" Doduo rolled his eyes, "He's a nice guy, very brave, very capable, everyone likes him."

Duo Duo really praised Yue Tuo full of praise, but Duo Ergun understood that those advantages were just illusions, and there was only one reason why Duo Duo got close to him, that is, he was dissatisfied with Huang Taiji for a while.

"Duo Duo, don't get so close to Yue Tuo anymore, just listen to my advice." Dorgon persuaded him kindly.

"Do you think others are bad?"

It doesn't matter whether a person is good or not, the important thing is whether he will become an obstacle.Daishan and Yuetuo are in charge of the two red flags, and it is right to suppress them and replace them with their own talents as soon as possible.It's just that Dorgon doesn't want to tell Duo Duo yet.

"I'm afraid you will be implicated, just like this time, the three of you will be punished together?"

Dodo snorted disdainfully: "You know everything?"

"You are too unruly."

Duo Duo suddenly got up and sat next to Dorgon, his eyes were shining with a strange light, staring at him.

Dorgon was wondering, but before he had time to react, Duoduo lowered his head and kissed him.Dorgon was shocked, pushed him away abruptly, and said angrily, "What are you doing!"

"What are you doing? Can't he kiss me if he can?" Dodo cried, and moved his head again.

Dorgon avoided it again: "Nonsense! Duoduo, you're drunk, aren't you?"

"I didn't drink today! Why! Why can he do it! What kind of thing is he!" Dodo became angry, and his movements became rough, putting one foot on the bed.

Dorgon could only use his upper body to exert strength, and he suffered a lot. Seeing that he was about to bully him, he was so angry that he no longer cared about his leg injury, so he used his legs to knock him away.Dorgon could almost feel the wound tearing open, and Dorgon's eyes were staring at the pain, as if something had torn the wound open, then plunged into it and stirred it up. He lost his balance when exerting force, and fell to the ground all of a sudden.

"Brother! Be careful!" Duoduo was anxious.

"Get out!" Dorgon shouted.

The loud noise disturbed the outside, and Dundari rushed in. Seeing Dorgon sitting under the bed, he was terrified: "Master Baylor, why did you fall?" He stepped forward to help Dorgon, looking at the wound Scanning everywhere, he saw blood seeping out.

Enduring the severe pain, Dorgon sat back on the bed and grabbed Dundari who was about to turn away.

Dundari said anxiously: "Master Baylor? I'll call the doctor, your wound is open."

"Don't tell the Great Khan." Dorgon gritted his teeth and said.

"How is this possible? Even if you don't tell Khan, he can see it."

Dorgon glanced at Duo Duo: "Don't talk nonsense."

Dundari understood, but it was very difficult for him to hide it from Huang Taiji, which violated his principle of serving Huang Taiji for a lifetime, but Dorgon held him tightly, with a look of refusal to let him go Since the situation was urgent, Dundari had no choice but to agree first: "I see, I'll call the doctor to re-bandage you first."

Dorgon finally let go, panting heavily.

Duoduo approached cautiously: "Brother..."

"Go away! What are you still doing here!"

Duo Duo fell to his knees with a plop, walked to Dorgon's side, and took his arm: "Brother, I didn't mean it, don't be angry."

"You still want to get rough with me? You're so brave, your wings are stiff, aren't you? You bastard!"

"No brother..."

"I'm furious!"

"Brother, do you hate me?" Duoduo looked at Dorgon aggrievedly.

Dorgon looked at Duo Duo, and before he could speak, Dundari dragged the doctor in.

"Hurry up! Show Baylor quickly!" Dundari urged the doctor.

The doctor put down the medicine box and was just about to check the injury when another person came in, it was actually Huang Taiji.
