Chapter 308 Huang Taiji's Political Wisdom
The incident in Guihua City was leaked, and the fire could not be covered with paper. After the Tartar soldier fled back, the news could not be concealed.

Shengjing Imperial Palace, Chongzheng Hall, a middle-aged fat man sits on the highest ninety-five seat. This is the current emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Aixinjueluo Huang Taiji.

At this time, there were still eight chairs under Huang Taiji, on which sat the eight most powerful princes of the Qing Dynasty. Although Huang Taiji was very powerful now, the Eight Kings Discussion System created by Nurhachi himself still had a lot of weight.

The eight Baylors are Daishan, Amin, Manggurtai, Dorgon, Azige, Jierhalang, Duoduo, and Yuetuo, the son of Daishan Dabeile.

However, although there are still so-called eight kings now, Huang Taiji's power is already great, and as a hegemon, it is difficult for a generation of heroes to tolerate sharing power with others. Great changes have taken place, and the power of these princes has also been greatly reduced.

For example, Daishan is now about to be kicked out of the position of Eight Kings by Huang Taiji, and other people have to act according to Huang Taiji's face at this time. The Eight Kings system exists in name only, but there are still residual forces that interfere with the exercise of power by the rulers. .

Today, these high-ranking and powerful people from the Manchu and Qing Dynasties are together to discuss the fact that Ming Jiu occupied the magpie's nest and robbed Lantian, and this meeting also includes Hauge, the eldest son of Huang Taiji.

In addition, some ministers of cultural relics all stood aside and turned a good meeting of the Eight Kings into an enlarged meeting. This is actually a manifestation of Huang Taiji's political wisdom.

Eight kings discussing politics is the policy set by Nurhachi, and later people will have to bear great obstacles if they want to overthrow the previous policies, and the eight kings will not obediently watch their rights gradually shrink.

After Huang Taiji proclaimed himself emperor, he thought of a method that seemed to strengthen the policy of ancestors, but in fact it was a way to weaken it. There are three people from one flag, and the Han army flag can also participate, and there are some meritorious figures. In the end, this good meeting turned into a meeting of 60 people. In this way, the rights allocated to everyone are very thin. Not enough to pose a threat to Huang Taiji's imperial power.

This trick was actually evolved by Huang Taiji based on Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's Tweeting Order. The Tweeting Order gave the concubine the opportunity to legally inherit Lao Tzu's territory, which led to the fact that all the children of the old Liu family became common people, just like that Zhongshan After King Jing, didn't Liu Bei become a straw sandal seller for this reason?
Huang Taiji's current goal is to first decentralize power, and then take it back. Once released and then taken back, the imperial power will become dominant. This is political wisdom, so don't underestimate this fat man.

"Cough cough..."

At the beginning of the meeting, Huang Taiji took his seat with a cough. Since the registration, Huang Taiji's health has been deteriorating. From a master who could bend a bow and set an arrow to shoot big eagles, he has now become a slightly weak middle-aged man.

The reason why it became like this is mainly because Huang Taiji didn't pay much attention to managing his own desires and indulged too much, especially after marrying Bumbutai, he became more arbitrary. By the way, Bumbutai is Da Yuer, the future filial Empress Dowager Zhuang, a woman with a famous reputation, and it is said that she has a strange story with her brother-in-law Dorgon, I don't know if it is true or not.

But since getting Bumbutai, Huang Taiji has indulged a bit too much, and his body has become weak, otherwise he would not be blown down by the wind, and he would be infected with the wind and cold.

Huang Taiji sat down, glanced at everyone and said: "Tell me."

Just after saying this, I saw someone kneeling on one knee among the people standing: "Huang Ama, my son, please kill Prince He Shuorui Dorgon."

Huang Taiji was taken aback for a moment, seeing his eldest son Hauge kneeling on the ground, he couldn't help frowning slightly, his eldest son was too unstable and impatient, although his biggest opponent now is Dorgon, but the old fox Daishan , and Jierharang are not in the early stage, why did you express your opinion so early?
Huang Taiji shook his head, his son is good at war, but not so good at politics.

Although Dorgon was called by someone at this time, his expression was very flat, neither happy nor sad, calm and composed, as if he was not the one who was clamored to be beheaded just now.

"Haoge, why do you want to kill Dorgon? What mistake did Dorgon make to kill a banner owner prince?"

Dorgon didn't move, at this time Duo Duo suddenly stood up and questioned loudly, everyone was surprised, Dorgon and Duo Duo's compatriots were bound together since childhood, Dorgon has always loaded guns, Duoduo release.

Hauge glanced at Duo Duo and said, "Dorgon lost Guihua City, a strategically important place, and he should be executed according to the law!"

Hearing this, Duo Duo was furious: "Nonsense, what does Guihua City have to do with Dorgon that the idiot Muerma and Zhao Shouquan lost his things?"

"Hehehe... Doduo, do you think everyone is a fool? Who doesn't know that Muerma and Zhao Shouquan are all from Dorgon. Dorgon's people lost the city, so naturally Dorgon is responsible."

After saying this, Azige on the side said: "Haug, that's not what you said. It's true that Muerma is Zhengbaiqi, but Zhao Shouquan, a Han general, was ordered by His Majesty. At that time, Dorgon was I said that this person is useless."

Hearing this, Hauge said: "Then Zhao Shouquan was well appointed by Huang Ama, but he turned out to be Dorgon's man, so naturally Dorgon should be responsible!"

After hearing this, Azige said: "We don't have this rule. The new master is responsible for the slaves who change masters. We have no reason to let the old master be responsible. If this is the case, will our flags still be in chaos?"

What Azige said actually makes sense. Zhao Shouquan could not be the naturalized city lord at first, but at that time Dorgon used a little trick to make Zhao Shouquan pretend to leave him, and then was reused by Huang Taiji. Doubts about Dorgon's layout, Dorgon also took the initiative to mention it, saying that Zhao Shouquan is useless, please Huang Taiji think twice.

As a result, Huang Taiji was really fooled. He felt that he was an emperor. If a prince like Dorgon said he would not let him use it, he would not use it. a decoration.

And the one who is really useful is Muerma, the Manchu general. Although Muerma was born in Zhengbaiqi, he was secretly bought by Huang Taiji, so this person seems to be from Dorgon, but in fact he is from Huang Taiji , so this is the combination of Guihua City.

At this moment, Hauge took the lead in launching the attack, and Duoduo and Azige came out to support Dorgon, and they persisted for a while. At this moment, Huang Taiji coughed and said: "Ahem...Dorgon, say Tell me what you think."

When Dorgon heard what Huang Taiji said, he immediately got up from his seat, and respectfully came to the throne of Huang Taiji and knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty, I think Hauge is right. I am responsible for the loss of Guihua City." Significant, cannot be shirked."

"Um?!!"

When Dorgon said this, everyone present was stunned. This Dorgon is crazy, why did he agree with the opponent's words, and it was still a terrible word for him. "

"elder brother."

At this time Duo Duo shouted anxiously, and Hauge also looked confused, what is Dorgon doing, why did he agree, this, this is unscientific.

And Dorgon lowered his head at this time, as if I was at fault and I confessed my guilt, but Huang Taiji was very satisfied with Dorgon's attitude at this time, what he wanted was an attitude, and the loss of Guihua City was a foregone conclusion , and when it comes to responsibility, the first one is Muerma, but this bastard is one of his own, so it really has to be counted. The first responsible person is Huang Taiji, and it is unknown who he employs.

But this is secretly, and it must be Dorgon's responsibility on the surface, but Huang Taiji doesn't want to use this reason to get rid of Dorgon. Dorgon is now the best knife in his hand. What is the most important thing about the knives of people like the Eight Kings discussing politics, checking and balancing Daishan, Yue Tuo, and Mang Gurtai?
loyalty!

As long as the knife is loyal, it doesn't matter if you make some mistakes, it can still be used, but if you lose the loyalty, you have to consider changing a knife.

And Dorgon understands his own role, knows his own position, this is not the time to shirk his responsibility, and it doesn't even matter who is responsible, the important thing is that he has to show his infinite loyalty to Huang Taiji, so he knelt down obediently Admitting your mistake and acting like letting Huang Taiji handle it, what are the benefits of doing so?
Of course, it was to make Huang Taiji feel at ease with himself, as long as Huang Taiji was at ease with himself, other things were not important, Huang Taiji didn't want to kill himself, others couldn't kill him.

Huang Taiji was very satisfied with Dorgon's attitude, it was an expression of his loyalty to himself, Huang Taiji nodded and said: "The responsibility for this matter lies with you, but at most you don't know who you employ, so you will confiscate two of your most powerful men." , In addition, the one-year salary will be suspended."

"Huang Ama!~"

Hauge was shocked when he heard this, for such a big mistake, he confiscated two of his men and horses. ?
Hauge was very unwilling, but Huang Taiji glared at Hauge, then looked at Dorgon and said, "Can you accept the punishment?"

At this time Dorgon said hastily: "My brother accepts the punishment."

Huang Taiji said: "Well, go back and sit down."

Dorgon sat down, and then Huang Taiji said: "Okay, let's not talk about the responsibility in advance, so let's talk about Guihua City, who is this Lantian Li Chaosheng? Who knows?"

When Huang Taiji said this, the rest of the people were all at a loss, and one person stood up and said: "Your Majesty, this Li Chaosheng, I know a thing or two."

Huang Taiji saw that it was Fan Wencheng who came out. The Manchu Qing had two official systems, Manchu and Han. Manchu officials liked to be called slaves, while Han people liked to be called ministers.

"Tell me."

Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng and said, Fan Wencheng said at this time: "Your Majesty, Li Chaosheng is from Lantian. Lantian is in Shaanxi, a county in southern Shaanxi, under the jurisdiction of Xi'an Prefecture. The imperial examination was only in the first year of Chongzhen when a catastrophe occurred in Shaanxi, the people were starved of food, and there were bandits everywhere. At this time, Hong Chengchou, who was then the chief envoy of Shaanxi, promoted this person to be the magistrate of Lantian."

"Afterwards, this person overhauled the water conservancy in Lantian. It took less than two years to manage Lantian and make it rich. It became the main food supply place for the frontier army in Shaanxi. However, this person did not respect the law. Move the boundary markers, expand the territory, and now half of the southern Shaanxi area has been taken over by Lantian County."

"Um?!"

After hearing these words, Huang Taiji and Dorgon all narrowed their eyes. Half of the southern Shaanxi area, this guy has a lot of tricks. In just a few years, he has occupied half of the southern Shaanxi area. This adds up to more than a dozen County town.

"In addition, when this man was in charge of Lantian, he invented a system called militia, in which the people spent three days a week training, and the rest of the time farming. He also put forward the slogan of Lantian people guarding Lantian, which was deeply loved by the people."

After hearing this, Ji Erhalang said: "Isn't this the guard system used by Zhu Yuanzhang? What about the militia? Isn't it just farming while training? Don't all guards do this?"

Hearing this, Yue Tuo laughed and said, "Training, do the guards still train?"

After hearing this, Jierhalang said: "That's right, but with some training, can you be as weak as a chicken?"

"Ha ha……"

After hearing this, everyone laughed, and Fan Wencheng continued: "However, according to the intelligence, the militiamen in Lantian County have good fighting power. The rogue Wang Jiayin's department once sent [-] troops to attack Lantian, but Lantian stopped them, and the [-] troops were completely annihilated. .”

After hearing this, the crowd was silent for a while, but at this time Hauge laughed loudly: "The rogues dare to call the army, haha... 5 people give me [-] cavalry, and I can kill them all. .”

The rest of the princes and generals didn't take it seriously, and the frontier soldiers didn't care much, let alone the muddy legs who just rolled up their trousers and came ashore?
Fan Wencheng said here: "Please report that there is a general in Lantian, Li Chaolong, who once fought a battle with the rogue Luo Heita, and is very talented in military affairs..."

Fan Wencheng said that the information here is basically over. Fan Wencheng obtained the information through the channels of the Eight Shanxi Merchants, and the information of the Eight Shanxi Merchants was obtained by caravans and local folks, so this information can only come to this place. To this extent, even Li Chaolong's battle against Heisha God is based on the information written by listening to commentaries.

After listening to Fan Wencheng's information, many princes became energetic, and Hauge even let out a bold statement: "This Li Chaosheng is also an ant, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

This was followed by a fierce battle. Huang Taiji thought for a while, seeing the excitement of the crowd, secretly guessing, this Li Chaosheng does not sound very strong, and it is not difficult for him to regain Guihua City, but Guihua City has been recovered. To whom to give the credit, this credit is very great, if it is given to other princes, their rights will definitely be increased, which is not conducive to their plan to abolish the eight kings' governance, so other princes can be excluded.

Then apart from the other princes, there are only Hauge and Dorgon, Hauge?
No, this son is too frizzy, let this kind of thing be left to Dorgon, and Dorgon is guilty of losing Guihua City, even if he takes it back to Huacheng this time, he will be guilty and meritorious. There is no more threat.

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji said: "Well, Dorgon is guilty of losing Guihua City, let him take the blame and make meritorious service this time."
