Dorgon reborn

Chapter 26 Playing in the Snow

In the 44th year of Wanli (1616), just as the Spring Festival was approaching, the city of Hetuala was bustling with lights and festoons everywhere, and people coming and going, filled with a festive atmosphere.

At this time, the cold wind is howling, the auspicious snow is flying, and the land of Liaodong is covered with ice and snow for thousands of miles.Jiming Mountain stands upright, and Hulan Hada is majestic and tall. They are covered with silver makeup, and under the cover of green pines and cypresses, they show vigorous vitality.

In the city of Hetuala, the soldiers and civilians are celebrating the arrival of the New Year, and there is another big event that brings joy to the people along with the New Year. Nurhachi will officially become the Khan King on the first day of the first lunar month.

Prior to this, Baylor of the Eight Banners, the five ministers and the main generals held a council, unanimously agreed to be Nurhachi's honorary title, and made a statement, requesting Nurhachi's permission, and scheduled the official founding ceremony on the first day of the first month.

Dorgon was lying by the window watching the snowflakes dancing in the sky, with a faint smile on his lips, his eyes slightly squinted and he stretched out his hand to catch one piece, the crystal clear snowflakes gradually melted into his palms and formed spots on his palm.He said with admiration: "Thousands of miles of yellow clouds and white sun, the north wind blows geese and snow. Winter in the northern country is beautiful. No wonder the poems describing snow are so beautiful!"

Huang Taiji walked out of the meeting room, pulled up his cloak, glanced at the somewhat dim sky, and said with a smile: "Second brother, it seems that next year will be another bumper harvest year, and it hasn't snowed this much for a long time, it really is a good omen .”

"Yeah, even God approves of Ama's title of Khan. In the future, Ama will definitely rule the country!" Daishan said with joy on his face. Ma's tone of voice, he is very appreciative of his work, and his brothers are also very supportive of him, so the mood is getting better.

"Hehe, what the second brother said is very true. From now on, the eighth younger brother will rely on the second brother to take care of him, and then we must not shirk." Huang Taiji said flatteringly, but he felt aggrieved in his heart. He is a brother in terms of qualifications and talents. The most outstanding among them, he is no less than Daishan in terms of military exploits, but he is always inferior in front of Ama.

Ama always expressed his wariness and vigilance towards himself intentionally or unintentionally, and smiled bitterly in his heart. If Er Niang was still alive, his situation would not be so difficult. He had no backing at all and could only rely on his own hard work.But he won't give in, he will take back everything that belongs to him.

Dai Shan was very pleased with Huang Taiji's words, reached out and patted his brother on the shoulder, and said softly: "Eighth brother, we are all brothers, it is only natural for the elder brother to take care of the younger brother, and the second brother will rely on your help in the future."

"Second brother, don't worry, as long as the second brother has a word, Huang Taiji will definitely go all out."

"Haha, good brother and big brother saw you right." Daishan showed approval on his face, "Sometimes brothers and sisters will come to my house for a gathering, and we won't go home until we're drunk!"

"Second brother, I remember this, you have to take out the old wine you hid!"

"Are you still thinking about my jugs of wine? Okay, I'll just take them out for you to drink!" The two brothers talked and laughed as they walked, and said goodbye to each other after walking a long distance.

Passing through the corridors, Huang Taiji walked to the gate and just took the reins from the guards and wanted to get on the horse, but found a white figure not far away waving at him, "Dorgon?!" Loosen his grip Huang Taiji took a few steps towards Dorgon and hugged the pounced body, "You are not reading in the room, what are you doing running out?"

"Brother, you said that you would take me up the mountain to catch Xuefang when it snowed, don't you remember?" Dorgon stared at Huang Taiji eagerly, his hands tightly clutching his lapel for fear that this person would run away Lose.

Huang Taiji smiled slightly, and pinched Dorgon's face with his hands, "You memorized these things quite clearly, but why did you memorize them in such a mess when I asked you to recite them?" Dizzy, how can I still remember the promise I made to Dorgon, I thought I could go back home to rest early after today's business is over, but this little guy was caught.

"Brother, don't you want to renege on your debts?" Dorgon frowned slightly, and began to think about how to make Huang Taiji submit, "You are the majestic Fourth Belle, and you will not let yourself be dishonest." your 'good name'?"

"Haha, you sharp-mouthed little thing, you've learned how to wear a top hat for your starling! Well, I just have some spare time today and I'll take you out to play." Huang Taiji smiled helplessly. I've caught it, and I have to be more careful when I speak in the future, maybe I will fall into the trap set by this little thing.

Huang Taiji called the guards beside him, "You go back to the mansion and tell Sheng Fujin that I won't go back today, I'm going to the paddock and I'll live there tonight." After a busy year, he also wanted to go out and relax. The best time to hunt is just after falling on the mountain.

"Yes." The guard obeyed and turned to leave.

"Dorgon, when you come out tell..."

"Tell me, I told Erniang that you took me hunting, and Ama gave me a new bow!" Dorgon took off the bow and arrow from his body and showed it off in front of Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji gave a wry smile, put Dorgon on the horse's back, then rode up and left with a few attendants on the horse. The heavy snow covered the black earth with a layer of silver, and the horse galloped through the snow. Layers of snowflakes splashed on the ground, like shattered jade plates.

The decaying dense forest was covered in silver at this time, and everywhere was covered with whiteness. Huang Taiji held the reins to slow down his forward speed, carefully paying attention to the movements of the four, and his sharp eyes swept across the patches of white snow.

Holding a bow and arrow in his hand, Dorgon turned his head to the rattle, looking for prey all around, but after searching for a long time, he didn't even see a shadow, so he couldn't help but feel a little lost.Glancing at Huang Taiji behind him, "Brother, where is Xue Mian?"

The corners of Huang Taiji's lips raised slightly, and he pointed to a row of footprints left on the snow not far away, "Did you see that, the footprints on it were left by Xue Fang, hunting in winter is different from usual, we just need to follow the footprints You can find it by walking." The horse walked slowly along the row of shallow footprints, and after walking not far away, it saw a snow-white rabbit jumping forward on the snow.

"See, it depends on your ability!" Huang Taiji leaned down and whispered in Dorgon's ear.

"It can't run away!" Dorgon raised the bow and arrow in his hand to aim at Xuefang, and in an instant, the arrow shot out like lightning, directly into Xuefang's body, "Haha, it hit, it hit It’s over... my starling, I’m good!" Dorgon put his bow behind his back, jumped off his horse and hurried a few steps to pick up the snow on the ground, with a bright smile on his face.

Huang Taiji looked at Dorgon who was dancing happily and said with a smile: "Yes, there is progress!" Turning to look at the guards following behind, "You go to the manor in front to prepare dinner first, and I will go with Dorgon in a while." Just go."

"Roast my rabbit for me, this is my trophy!" Dorgon pulled the snowflake from the arrow and threw it to the guard.

"Yes, Lord Fourteen!" The guards picked up Xuemian and led the horse away, galloping towards the manor in front.

Dorgon pulled back the cloak on his body, leaned down and grabbed a snowball on the ground, secretly glanced at Huang Taiji behind him, and when he found that he was looking at the woods not far away, he suddenly raised his hand The snow ball just hit Huang Taiji's nose, the snow ball shattered in an instant, and a few small pieces of snow stuck to Huang Taiji's face scatteredly, looking very embarrassed.

"Little things dare to provoke your starling, you will die a miserable death today!" Huang Taiji jumped off the horse, tore off his cloak and threw it on the horse, grabbed a snow ball from the ground and threw it at Dorgon's go.

"Yeah, you can't catch me, you can't catch me!" Dorgon easily dodged Huang Taiji's attack, and when he was shaking his head proudly, the person in front of him disappeared, "Where is the person?!" Scratching his head lightly, his eyes searched all around but still found nothing, "Mynah? Mynah?"

Huang Taiji stood behind Dorgon with a suppressed smile, and as he moved, he suddenly stretched out his hands and threw Dorgon down on the snow, "Myna will build you a snowman, and it's tailor-made!"

Dorgon got up from the ground with his face covered in snow, looked at the smug Hong Taiji behind him with a dark face, and said angrily: "Myna, you are playing dirty!" He stretched out his hand to wipe the snow off his face, just remembered The body was pressed down by a heavy object.

"Little thing, who do you think is playing with yin?" Huang Taiji stretched out his hand and raised Dorgon's face, admiring his slightly flushed face due to the cold with great interest, moving his fingers along the soft skin, "Dorgon's more Dorgon is getting more and more beautiful the longer he grows, but it's a pity that he is too young, when will he grow up?"

The hot air exhaled by Huang Taiji's mouth slapped his face so hot that it was a bit scalding. The scorching heat made his heart beat faster and his face turned redder involuntarily. He stretched out his hand and pushed away the person who was close to him, "You eat Why are you so fat? You're dead."

"Can you hold down this little monkey if you are not heavy?" Huang Taiji said deliberately jokingly, leaning on the restless person under him, "You are so cute, let the mynah kiss you!"

"No, I'm not a girl, why do I always have to be kissed by you, absolutely don't...don't..."

"It's really not good, so how about throwing you here to feed the wolves? It happens that food is scarce in winter!"

Dorgon snorted coldly, and said with a smile: "Brother, are you bluffing children? Even feeding wolves is a hundred times better than feeding you. At least I am saving lives and healing wounded, and I can be considered a martyr!"

"You little thing..." Huang Taiji was about to say something when he heard miserable and weak groans from a distance.
