Road to Shunzhi

"Uncle, it's already very cold sooner or later, why are you dressed so lightly?" Dorgon seldom entered the palace at this time, Fulin was a little strange at first, but when he saw him wearing thin clothes, he said this.

Dorgon smiled, "I'm wearing a jacket inside, it's very warm, don't worry, Your Majesty."

"By the way, what's the matter with uncle coming into the palace at this time?" Fulin looked at the chiming clock beside him, "Let's have dinner with me, uncle."

But Dorgon took a step forward, lifted his robe and knelt down, "Your Majesty, I beg you to marry the Empress Dowager."

Fulin stood up all of a sudden, staring at him: "Uncle, do you know what you're talking about?"

"It's very clear." Dorgon raised his head, "Please marry the empress dowager to my minister!"

Fulin took two steps forward, helped him up, and said, "Uncle, now is not the time. It's not that I don't agree, it's just..." At this point, he suddenly had an idea, "Uncle, you didn't do it for the firearms, did you?" ?”

Dorgon nodded: "The queen mother's marriage is of great importance. Of course, the emperor can't agree, so I begged hard. In this way, no one will think about firearms anymore."

Fulin said: "But, isn't uncle's reputation completely ruined?"

"So what. I can see how much the emperor invests in firearms. To be honest, I didn't want the emperor to develop firearms at first, but after seeing the usefulness of firearms with my own eyes, I was also shocked. And Those foreigners use firearms, if I don’t have firearms in Qing Dynasty, I will be bullied by foreigners.” Dorgon said, “Foreigners don’t care about these kindness and injustice, what they want is our things, if they can’t afford it, they will be bullied.” To fight them, firearms are necessary."

Are you willing to ruin your reputation for the sake of firearms?Fulin looked at Dorgon as if he didn't know him. In his impression, his uncle was not such a selfless person.Dorgon turned a blind eye to his probing gaze: "Does the emperor have any good ideas?"

"I'm going to go on an autumn hunt or a royal tour of Shengjing." Fulin replied.The current Qing Dynasty is not as it was in history. Zheng Chenggong has been watching the sea, but it is relatively stable. In addition, the wounds of the war have almost been repaired, and the business has recovered. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, potatoes and corn were introduced. , the life of ordinary people is not bad, so they can fully afford the cost of driving to Shengjing.He planned to find an excuse, saying that the Queen Mother and himself dreamed at the same time at night, dreaming of Nurhachi and Huang Taiji, and asked them to go to Shengjing to worship their ancestors, and then use the words of their ancestors to cut off the earthquake and firearms. You can also invite the Mongols to show off the power of the newly researched muskets.

Dorgon thought for a moment: "It's not right. The nobles of the Eight Banners are not so easy to dismiss. If I still use my method, the earthquake can also be regarded as the regent coveting the queen mother, and the heavens can't see it."

"No need." Fulin looked at him, "I have my own plan."

Dorgon stood quietly for a while, and twitched the corners of his mouth: "Okay, the emperor has his own ideas, so I won't worry about it, and I will leave." Then he turned and left.

"Uncle!" Fulin suddenly stopped him, "Thank you."

Dorgon turned around to look at him, smiled, nodded at him, and strode out of the imperial study.

Fulin knew that Dorgon's move was to show that they were a united front, and by the way, he was pleading for the Eight Banners, for fear that he would kill in a fit of anger.However, no matter what, being willing to pour dirty water on him to relieve the pressure of public opinion on him was enough to move Fulin.

In September, when the courtiers were still clamoring for the abolition of firearms, the emperor declared in the court hall that he would tour Shengjing and worship the ancestors according to the entrustment of Emperor Xianwu and Emperor Wen in his dream.

It is absurd to talk about the dream, but no one dares to point it out. Who dares to be disrespectful to the first emperors if he is impatient with life, and who dares to question the dreams of the emperor and the queen mother?Even if they knew that the emperor was making a fuss, they still had to admit it.

The palace in Shengjing has been repaired, and it has long been different from the big courtyard of the past. The tablets of the Manchu ancestors are displayed one by one in the Taimiao, and they are taken care of by special personnel.After the emperor and the empress dowager brought a few children to offer incense respectfully, the emperor knelt down on the futon, as if he was listening to a lesson, and after a good show, he stood up and announced the news he had just received in the Taimiao .

The ancestors said that they have always been in Shengjing, and their descendants are all in the capital. They also want to go to the capital. They want to be with the descendants and watch the Qing Dynasty last for thousands of generations.In order to let the emperor know this, they begged to heaven, and finally got mercy from heaven, which caused an earthquake in the capital, and sent Emperor Wu and Emperor Wen to entrust their dreams, so that Fulin could come to Shengjing and listen to their wishes.Fulin said that he is an obedient and filial son, and he must fulfill the wishes of his ancestors. He ordered Qin Tianjian to find an auspicious day to transport the tablets of the ancestors to the capital.

It's just nonsense!The civil and military officials kept cursing in their hearts, but they had no choice but to obey the emperor's order.You know, the ancestors here are all Manchu heroes, and the emperor made a fuss about them, who would dare not follow?

On the fifth day of October, as a sign of prudence, the emperor sent Regent Dorgon, Xiangjun Wang Boguoer and Prince Xun Mandahai together to welcome the tablet into Beijing.The emperor issued an edict, this is the important matter of the country, and it is also a blessing for the country, and the world is amnesty.

Under this series of actions, the matter of the firearms was suppressed, and the memorandum of the joint performance seemed to have never appeared.Only some nobles discussed in private, looking for a suitable opportunity to bring this matter up again.

Immediately afterwards, there was Qiushou from Nanyuan.There is autumn hunting every year, but this year's is more grand.The emperor invited all the tribes of Mongolia, and also brought his eldest son Fuquan. At the same time, he also invited the sons of Joseon and San Francisco who were protons in the capital.

To be honest, Fulin doesn't like hunting, without him, his riding and shooting are just not good enough.He has been busy since he was a child. Whenever he has time, he is busy reading books and practicing calligraphy, and he has to study government affairs every minute.It's just that this hunting is necessary, because he didn't use a bow and arrow, but a musket.

The emperor's muskets can knock down a deer in one fell swoop.Everyone in Nanyuan could see that after a loud noise that resounded through the sky, the strong stag fell to the ground and died without even struggling.When hunting deer before, the emperor had to shoot an arrow first, and then the guards had to chase and intercept the deer before capturing the deer.

terrible!The Mongols have only heard of muskets, and this is the first time they have seen them with their own eyes. Looking at each other, they are thinking about asking acquaintances for a while to find out how far the firearms of the Qing Dynasty are. If the Eight Banners are equipped with such weapons, what else will Mongolia have? If you are qualified to negotiate terms with Daqing, you can just let others slaughter you.

As for the Manchurian nobles, they didn't expect the emperor to show off with guns in a fair manner, but on this occasion, they couldn't say anything, they could only praise the emperor's excellent marksmanship and superb skills loudly.

The queen had to take care of the children in the palace. This time it was Shungege of the Borzigit family who followed Fulin. Naturally, many Mongolian nobles asked their side Fujin concubines to ask Shungege about firearms.Although Shun Gege entered the palace not long ago, she was also a smart and quiet person, who dismissed everyone with the excuse that "the harem should not interfere in politics", which made Fulingao take a look at her.

In this way, no one dares to question the effectiveness of firearms.Fulin also ordered that the firearms battalion be directly under the emperor's management. All the production methods of firearms are state secrets. The production is divided into several large pieces, and assembly line operations are implemented. Each specific process is in charge of specific people, and all craftsmen are all responsible. It is directly under the banner of Xianghuang Banner, and its identity is kept secret.

Then, the emperor punished several officials who signed the joint memorial, including Daishan's grandson Jieshu, on charges of "corruption", "spreading rumors" and "shaking the hearts of the people". However, the Eight Banners expressed their desire to resist, and some people asked for leave from time to time in the court, and some of the people who handled the affairs began to obey others.

Fulin directly dismissed the banner owner of King Luo Keduo of Pingbi County, and handed over the entire inlaid red flag to Shuo Sai. Then, he named the young Doerbo Baylor, and together with Doni, he was in charge of the Zhenglan Banner. It is to extend Dorgon's power to the Zhenglan Banner.Now, the combined power of the emperor and the regent has spread to the entire Eight Banners, and the foundation of the Eight Manchurian surnames is also in the Manchu Eight Banners. Faced with this overwhelming power gap, they finally calmed down and no longer dare to talk too much, but There are still many little tricks in the dark.

Bumbutai acted at the right time, summoned little Manchurian girls again and again, and expressed great interest in several twelve or thirteen-year-old girls, and gave them a lot of rewards, asking them to go to the palace to talk with him from time to time, and to talk to them from time to time. The wives hinted that there is not a single concubine in the palace so far, and the emperor is really lonely.Everyone remembers that the 13th year of Shunzhi had just passed the draft, and the year after next was the year of the draft, and these girls would be ready to enter the palace to serve the emperor.It is typical to give a sweet date with a stick, but the nobles all bought into it. The matter of firearms has been arguing for several months, and finally the dust has settled.

In the Compassionate Ning Palace, Bumbutai was leaning on the couch, and a little palace lady knelt in front of her, gently beating her legs with a beauty hammer.After Dorgon came in, Bumbutai drove the little maid out with a wave of his hand, and Su Moer consciously went to the outside room to let the wind pass by.

"The emperor said, you asked him to marry me?" Bumbutai didn't beat around the bush, but directly asked questions.

Dorgon nodded: "However, the emperor did not agree."

Bumbutai sat up straight and looked straight at him: "Is it sincere, or is it for the emperor?"

"Both." Dorgon sat next to her, pointed to her cheek, "here, the powder is a bit pasty. I was thinking, if the emperor can agree, it is naturally the best, and you and I can be fair It’s all in one place, and the emperor will avoid disputes with the Eight Banners, it’s just that my reputation has suffered a little bit, three birds with one stone, only one disadvantage, why not do it.”

Bumbutai picked up the small mirror on the table to take a picture, used a handkerchief to print a little on his face, made the powder docile, and said: "The emperor will not agree, and now is not before entering the customs. Aren’t we very good now, why make it known to everyone in the world.”

Dorgon said seriously: "Yu'er, you know, I really want to marry you. If I can't give my beloved woman a title, how can I be considered a man. I just want to be with you, side by side Standing, even if the world doesn't understand, so what, at least we are together, and we are an upright husband and wife."

Bumbutai was a little moved.Of course she wants to marry him, she has wanted to marry him since she was eight years old, but the current emperor is her son, she can't just focus on herself and let her son be ridiculed by the world.

"I'm very happy if you have this kind of heart." Bumbutai leaned into Dorgon's arms obediently, "If you are too greedy, you will be punished by God. I can be with you and enjoy the fire together when the weather is cold." , when the weather is hot, we can enjoy the shade together, and I don’t need to sneakily make clothes and shoes for you, I’m already very satisfied.”

Yes.Dorgon gently kissed her temple.In front of others, she is a lofty queen mother, but in front of him, she will always be a little woman, his Yu'er.
