golden scales

248 The Lights of the Imperial Capital Are Ridiculous

Dorgon sat on the Hall of Martial Heroes, and below him stood Manchu nobles, all of whom were powerful and exalted and exempted from kneeling, and below him were two groups of Manchu and Han ministers, big and small, kneeling. .

Among the Hanchens, the costumes were different, some wore Manchurian arrow sleeves, some wore deep Ming clothes; some wore red tasseled helmets, and some wore Jinxian crowns.

Ai Xing'a got his wish and got the position of commander of the infantry, kneeling at the front of the class.He secretly turned his head to look at the minister of the Han class, and seeing his friend Song Hongye kneeling diagonally behind him, he couldn't help being excited.

Song Hongye didn't feel any excitement at all, he was just full of anxiety at the moment.

Because of the wrong team!

The Manchurians had just entered the customs, and no one knew their details. They only thought that these barbarians were straight-hearted, and they would not have the same intrigues as in the official circles of the Ming Dynasty.

With the deepening of exchanges, stories among the Manchurians gradually spread.Among them, the most concerned by the Han officials is naturally why the young emperor Fulin ascended to the throne, and why there are two regents, Jierhalang and Dorgon.What is even more strange is why Dorgon, who commanded the Eight Banners Army of the Manchu, Mongolian and Han tribes, ranked below the little-known Jierhalang!

Song Hongye shouldered the important task of secrets. He had already stepped into the center of the court in the Qing Dynasty, and was summoned by Dorgon alone once.He had to make a statement, otherwise he would be rejected by everyone, just like that Sun Zhixie who couldn't be a human being.

But now, he finally knew that after Huang Taiji's death, there were two people competing for the throne. It was Huang Taiji's eldest son Hauge and the regent Dorgon in front of him.

Hauge was raped by his subordinates long before the Qing Dynasty sent troops to enter the pass, accusing him of plotting wrongdoing, and a resolution was passed by the two regents and the noble relatives of Manchuria to cut off Prince Su's prince. This is undoubtedly a sign of complete failure in the political struggle .

Ai Xing'a's father, Ta Zhan, and his uncle, Tan Tai, happened to be on Hauge's side.

Only then did Song Hongye understand why Dorgon had such a strange expression when he summoned him that day.

Since you are on the wrong team, you must save it.

Song Hongye was not only passing on the letter to the crown prince, but also trying to collect the secrets of the struggle for the throne of the Qing Dynasty at that time, so as to judge the overall situation of the court in the future, so as not to stand on the wrong team again.Fortunately, the Manchurians are better than the officialdom of the Ming court in one point: as long as they do things with heart, even if they are under the cover of political opponents, they will not waste their words because of others, let alone waste their efforts because of others.

So Dorgon would hand over the important position of infantry commander to Ai Xing'a, and let Song Hongye, as the Minister of the Ministry of War, supervise one of the patrol battalions.

The commanding yamen of the infantry army was divided into eight banner infantry camps, all of which were powerful men from the Manchu, Mongolian, and Han Eight Banners.There are also two patrolling battalions, composed of Han descendants.Even so, it is very difficult for Hanchen to take up military positions, and most of them are filled by Han army bannermen.It is really rare for a newcomer Han who is not a bannerman like Song Hongye to take charge of a battalion.

It was because Dorgon valued his talent and thoughtfulness that he entrusted him with this heavy responsibility, and at the same time asked him to work harder on arresting bandits and suppressing spies.

This is somewhat coaxing.

"My Qing Dynasty has occupied Yanjing for some days, and Tan Tai will also drive Ni Chuang out of Gyeonggi. We still have to discuss what to do next." Dorgon is high above him, but his words are not very domineering.This is because Huang Taiji did not completely integrate the Qing Dynasty into a feudal and centralized country, and still has a strong smell of tribal alliances.

As soon as this remark came out, the Manchurian generals below naturally knew that their staking was over, and the Regent King was about to send troops.But this is not bad news, as long as it can be guaranteed that whoever grabs it goes to whom, and that the land already occupied remains unchanged, sending troops to fight the old business should be done.

Duoduo stood under Dorgon's head, and said immediately after hearing the words: "Please give the order to the regent! I am a soldier with a white flag, and I will sweep the world, and I will obey."

The generals of the two yellow flags all secretly scolded the two brothers Dorgon and Duoduo for their brazenness, and they sang together and spoke in a very serious way.But they knew that Tan Tai made a lot of money by chasing Li Zicheng this time, so they felt a little itchy.

When Li Zicheng fled, he was tied to a tree with silk and satin, and silver was sprinkled on the ground to slow down the pursuit of the Manchu cavalry.Tan Tai didn't want to chase too far at first, he broke through two cities, took the road money, and went back to the court to grab the fields in Gyeonggi.

Dorgon was about to nod, when he suddenly heard a voice: "Slave Sony, I have something to say!"

Dorgon said calmly, "What is there for Soni Bakshi to play?"

"My lord, now that the Qing Dynasty is stationed in Yanjing, the most urgent thing is to invite His Majesty to enter the customs and Dingding, so as to eliminate the bandits in the capital, and the army should not be moved lightly." Sony played loudly.

After hearing this, Song Hongye thought secretly: This Sony is a big shot in Zhenghuangqi. He came out to stop the Nine Chieftains, presumably for the benefit of the two yellow flags.

How could Dorgon not know.He asked his younger brother Duoduo to make a suggestion to send troops to attack Mingdi immediately, in order to set the world before Shunzhi entered the pass.If it is due to chance, it will be possible to spy on the emperor's throne and establish a shame on the snow.

Thinking of this, Dorgon hated Sony even more. That day Hauge had been forced by him and Duoduo to make a foolish move, claiming that "Fu Xiaodebo" could not succeed to the throne, but it was Sony and Aobai who led the two. The officers and soldiers of the Yellow Banner entered the palace with their swords, and threatened to die. They must establish Huang Taiji's son. Only then did the six-year-old Fulin succeed to the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

"Now there are millions of troops in the Rebellion, and there are hundreds of thousands of troops in the Southern Dynasty. There are bandits all around the capital. Maybe one day we have to leave the customs. How can we let the emperor face danger? Of course, we must destroy those traitors. Only then can the emperor be invited to enter the customs!" Although Azig was brave and foolish, Huang Taiji also complained about his two younger brothers who disregarded their mother's hatred and joined the enemy, but at this critical moment, he still knew which side he should stand on.

Moreover, Azig is a well-known stunned youth, no matter how exaggerated he is, as long as he says "Oh, I have this temper", no one can do anything about him.

"Your Majesty! Please first invite the Emperor and Prince Zheng to enter the pass, and with all our strength in Manchuria, we will surely be able to bring peace to this world." Obai also came out of the class to play.

"What do you slaves know! The emperor is only six years old, how can he stand the torture of battle? A slave doesn't know how to think of his master, so what can he do if he is only afraid of death!" Dodo cursed.He is the honor of the prince, even if Oboi is the number one warrior in Manchuria, he would not dare to stand up to him.

Among the two yellow flags, Sony and Aobai are only in the middle, but they are the vanguards.The two curbed Dorgon's one-man show, which attracted Duo Duo to suppress them with his identity, and then the noble relatives of the two yellow banners naturally came out to support them, demanding to consolidate the capital before the emperor and Prince Zheng entered the capital, and refused to use the army.

This time when they entered the customs, the three Dorgon brothers had a total of 98 Niulu under their command, but there were more than a hundred Niulu who entered the customs with the two yellow flags, accounting for half of the army.However, most of Daishan's two red flags and Jierhalang's bordered blue flag remained outside the customs, and even if they accompanied them into the customs, they would not be able to play a decisive role.

This scene is somewhat similar to the scene when the two kings were fighting for power.

Dorgon turned his head, faced Minister Hanban and asked, "What do you guys think?"

Sony and Aobai turned to Fan Wencheng with deep meaning in their eyes.

Although Fan Wencheng was a Han official, after making Fulin the emperor that day, he also burned incense with [-] two yellow banner generals and swore that he would be loyal to Fulin just as he was loyal to Huang Taiji.He had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, the country cannot be without a king for a while. Yanjing is established, and you should welcome your majesty back to the court."

"Ai Xing, what do you think?" Dorgon had just promoted Ai Xing, so he naturally didn't miss the opportunity to let him stand in line.

Ai Xing'a is not a foolish man. Although the Manchus do not have a clear distinction between civil and military, those who admire Han culture are more or less inclined to literary matters.He didn't intend to betray the two yellow flags, but he was also unwilling to avenge his kindness, so he won the appointment of the regent and stood on the opposite side of him.

"Report to the lord," Ai Xing'a came out of the class and said, "I think that the sage must welcome us, and the rebellion must be wiped out, but it's hard to say. Since my master Wang entered the pass, I don't know where Shengjing is. How about the situation here, why don't you send someone back to ask?"

—Slippery!Still want to drag me!

Dorgon put a label on this love star, and secretly decided to just wait for the preparations for the infantry commander's yamen, and then find an opportunity to abolish this meat-eating and ungrateful dog.

"I think that you should march quickly and destroy the remnants!" With a loud shout, it was Tan Tai who stood up. (To be continued.)
