Road to Shunzhi

The Ministry of Rites has been very busy recently.When Huang Taiji passed away, he had to be sent to Zhaoling for burial, and an edict of mourning was issued to various ministries of Korea and Mongolia, and at the same time, a posthumous title for Huang Taiji had to be drawn up.And the appointment of the new emperor should not be neglected, as well as the conferring ceremony of the two empress dowagers.Fortunately, Fulin was still a child, and had no wives and concubines, so there would be no conferring ceremony for the harem, otherwise this incomplete Ministry of Rites would be paralyzed from exhaustion.

Fulin looked at the posthumous title of Huang Taiji presented by the Ministry of Rites, and felt a little overwhelmed: Huang Taiji, who was once so tall and burly and powerful, and who needed all his efforts to please him, has now become a line of words, just so quietly I was lying in front of myself; I used to work overtime in the company in the dark for fear of any problems and being picked on by my superiors, but I became the supreme ruler of a country in a blink of an eye.

Life is indeed a tragicomedy.Fulin calmed down, and there had been heated discussions on these posthumous titles. Some of them talked about Huang Taiji's great achievements, and some talked about Huang Taiji's tolerance and benevolence. Hongde Zhangwukuan Wenren Shengrui Emperor Xiaowen", Fulin took a look and said: "Add 'Zhao' and 'Min'."

The Ministry of Rites respectfully said: "You can be tired of posthumous titles."

Fulin nodded, agreeing.Dorgon thought it was funny, "Zhao" and "Min", the little guys are laughing at Huang Taiji for not being able to see his own harem clearly, right?If possible, he would probably want to remove the word "filial piety". After all, in his eyes, Huang Taiji is not a reliable father at all.

In the same month, Jierharang and Azig led the army to recruit, and Haoge's manpower in the court was weakened by more than half.Fulin was a little puzzled: "Uncle, Prince Zheng will definitely have military merits here, is it appropriate?"

Dorgon smiled: "With Azig here, it doesn't matter."

Fulin was still a little worried: "However, King Yingjun belongs to my uncle, and Prince Zheng belongs to my elder brother. Will there be any disputes between them?"

Dorgon didn't take it seriously: "The state affairs are the most important, and both of them understand this truth."

That's right, even if they fight to the death behind their backs, they can still maintain the same externally.But tomorrow will be different.Emperor Chongzhen wanted to be diligent and frugal, and wanted to govern the country well, but the people under him were all unclear, and they only wanted to dig the corners of the Ming Dynasty. One is as rich as oil.Don't they understand that their backer is Daming? If they dig down the backer, what good will it do them?Fulin had studied business management before, and the upside-down between superiors and subordinates is the most taboo, as small as a family or as large as a country, the superiors are not as good as the subordinates, and the superiors even have to bribe the subordinates to get the subordinates to do things obediently, so, this family Or the day of the country's downfall is imminent.

Jierhalang and others seemed to be going forward indomitable, they bypassed Ningyuan, attacked the Zhonghousuo, Zhongqiansuo and Qiantunwei, Huang abandoned the city and fled, and Ningyuan became a real lonely city.Then, Sun Youbai, the garrison of Ningyuan in the Ming Dynasty, secretly came to surrender, and the situation seemed to be one-sided.Zu Dashou, Hong Chengchou and others took the opportunity to send another letter of persuasion to Wu Sangui.

Huang Taiji promised Wu Sangui the title of king, and Dorgon also thought it was appropriate, but Wu Sangui did not surrender immediately, but led his troops to repel Jierhalang and Azig.This made Fulin very puzzled.

In his heart, Wu Sangui is equal to a traitor.Traitors and others surrendered to the enemy for the sake of prosperity and their own lives. Just like Ma Yujin at the beginning, after surrendering, he received much higher treatment than in the Ming Dynasty. Will wrong him, he married a wife and took a concubine, had children and had a very happy life.

So why didn't Wu Sangui surrender?Not only did he not surrender, but he was also an excellent general.Fulin scratched his head: the human heart is indeed the most elusive thing, and people always have integrity, even Wu Sangui, who will bear the infamy of later generations.This kind of integrity, some people will disappear completely because of their glory and fear of death, while some people are above everything, and even death cannot change it.

For some reason, Fulin suddenly remembered some kind of political movement in later generations.At that time, the whole country seemed to go crazy.All people have to dance a certain word before eating, and they have to recite quotations before doing anything.Now it seems that that era is incomprehensible, but people back then didn't think they did anything wrong at all.

Fulin doesn't want to create such a society where one can say a word, but there are still some areas that can be used for reference, for example, strengthening political education and the like.Moreover, most of the people and soldiers here are illiterate, and the "education" of those Han Chinese scholars has not gone smoothly.In his opinion, it is better to write some simple and easy-to-understand short stories, which are catchy, good and evil will be rewarded, and the common people will definitely welcome it.

However, these are things for the future.Fulin did not intend to discuss these issues with Dorgon.Although these brothers of Huang Taiji have the same interests on external issues, they are also relentless when fighting for power internally.Jierhalang went out to fight, and Dorgon relentlessly weakened Prince Zheng's power, and he was too busy.

Fulin was somewhat dissatisfied with this.In his opinion, the regent should have a balance, and he is that balance point.He had no objection to Jierharang being removed, and the person he was looking for against Dorgon was Fan Wencheng.The emperor's father and regent in history were too terrifying, and Fulin didn't dare to let this happen again.

What's more, his mother-in-law was also involved.Even if he didn't want to, he had to admit that Dorgon really cared about his mother, and Dorgon was probably the only one Bumubutai really loved in his life.However, no matter what, I am the most precious thing in Erniang's heart!Fulin thought triumphantly, Dorgon was completely defeated in competing for Bumbutai's attention!

The New Year in the first year of Shunzhi is coming soon, and the Ministry of Rites is once again in chaos.Many people from various tribes in North Korea and Mongolia came to mourn Huang Taiji on the one hand, congratulate Fulin on the other hand, and more importantly, to inquire about the foreign policy of the Qing court.Among them, North Korea is more active. You must know that when Huang Taiji was there, he had verbally promised to halve North Korea's tribute.

"If you don't change your father's ways for three years, the emperor still decrees that North Korea can feel at ease." After Fan Wencheng became the regent, it was rare to express his opinion.

Fulin frowned: "Huang Ama didn't issue a decree."

Fan Wencheng continued: "The Son of Heaven speaks his word, and he speaks well. Even if there is no decree, he should follow it."

But, he really doesn't want to make Bangziguo so easy, okay?Fulin pouted, feeling very disapproving.North Korea has always been a wall, and whoever's fist is hard will listen to whoever it is. Before it was surrendered to Ming Dynasty, and seeing the rise of the Qing Dynasty, it was posted up again.That's fine, but it still wanted to gain benefits from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but it was beaten up by Dorgon, and it became obedient immediately, and gave away beautiful women and protons. Internally, it was dark Hiding in a corner, yy himself is number one in the world.

Seeing the little emperor frowning and not speaking, Dorgon understood that he was not happy, and took a step forward: "Your Majesty, what Fan Xueshi said is very true. The former emperor kept his word, so it is better for the emperor to make a decree." He secretly winked at Fulin again.

Fulin understood, but showed a troubled look: "Since uncle also said so, okay."

Fan Wencheng breathed a sigh of relief.He had high hopes for the little emperor, but he couldn't see the little emperor being labeled as "unfilial". Thinking so, he gave Dorgon a grateful look.

After retiring from the court, Dorgon naturally stayed again, and smiled at Fulin: "The emperor doesn't like North Korea?"

Fulin was very relaxed in front of him, and smiled: "Uncle saw it."

"It's not just me, all the civil and military people in the court can see it." Dorgon couldn't help rubbing the top of his head, "Didn't the emperor say that he would not show his emotions?"

Yes, thinking of Bangzi Kingdom will naturally show disgust, and patience is not enough.Fulin nodded seriously: "I know, I will definitely do better in the future."

Dorgon said: "Actually, it's good for the emperor to do this. The emperor showed his dislike for North Korea, and the officials below will naturally do things according to the emperor's thoughts. However, Fan Xueshi is right, Hanchen attaches great importance to filial piety. For one thing, the emperor still has to follow the previous emperor's orders. In the worst case, find a reason and double their taxes."

It turns out that being an emperor means that sometimes you have to show your likes and dislikes on your face, and sometimes you have to be unpredictable. As for how to do it, this degree can only be controlled by yourself.Fulin said that he was taught, and decided to practice facial expressions in front of the mirror more often when he had time.

Regardless of whether there is a war or not, the New Year will always pass.The three forces of Zhu Youjian, Fulin, and Li Zicheng all calmed down strangely, and they were just competing secretly.

Although Dorgon said that he would tell Fulin many things, only in terms of military affairs, he had a lot of concealment.Fulin didn't bother to ask, the two of them always maintained a balance and harmony on the surface.It's just that all of this can't be hidden from Bumbutai who sits in the harem.

"Fulin treats you like Ama, but you hide something from him. If he finds out, won't he be sad?"

Bumbutai is the same as all mothers in the world, her own children are the best, and if there are any bad things, they will be led to bad by others.Therefore, even if it is Dorgon, it is impossible to make her son unhappy.

Dorgon looked at her still bright eyes and didn't know how to answer for a moment.After thinking for a long time, he sighed faintly: "Queen Mother, don't ask any more questions. You also know that if you ask, I won't hide it from you."

Bumbutai winked at Su Mo'er, and Su Mo'er was blessed, and took all the maids in the palace away quietly.Bumbutai stood up slowly, walked to Dorgon's side, held his hand while he was stunned, and called softly: "Brother Fourteen."

Dorgon was like a lightning strike.He remembered that when they met for the first time, Bumbutai was learning how to ride a horse with great interest. The little girl had braids all over her head and smiled brightly in the sun.He was watching it interestingly, so he stepped forward to give some pointers. Bumbutai asked him what his name was, and he said that he was fourteenth. So he called his fourteenth brother, and he called her Yu'er.

Head down, so many years have flowed by.

Dorgon trembled his lips, tried not to let his tears fall, and called softly: "Yu'er."

Bumbutai raised his head. This man, who has been her hero since childhood, is still tall and handsome.She stretched out her hand and stroked Dorgon's cheek: "Brother Fourteen, just tell me if you have anything to do, I'm your Yu'er."

"Yu'er!" Dorgon sighed, and took Bumbutai into his arms, "Yu'er, I'm afraid that you gave birth to such a smart child. He likes Sinology. According to the rules of the Han people, the two of us This one is immoral. I always feel that he should be my child, he should be my child and your child, but I am afraid that if one day he hates me, what should I do, and you are caught in the middle , so what should I do. I taught him everything I know, but I wanted to keep some, because I was afraid that in the future, if he annoyed me, I would still have something to protect myself. Yuer, I am actually very Cowardly, selfish, and even guard against such a well-behaved Fulin, will you blame me for it?"

"How could it be?" Nestling in his arms, feeling his strong heartbeat, Bumbutai was so happy that he just wanted to cry, "Fulin is my son, I understand him best, he is not such a person. Don't worry, you'll be fine, and we'll all be fine."
