Ming politicians

Chongzheng Hall.

Dorgon, Duoduo, Hauge, Jierhalang, Azig, Yebusu, Sony, Aobai, Tan Tai and other Manchu nobles were all in the hall. As a Han, Fan Wencheng seemed to be It's very different.

Everyone knows the conditions of the exchange in the Ming Dynasty, and the decision that needs to be made at this moment is whether it can be exchanged.

Huang Taiji was very relieved, a difficult matter that seemed impossible to deal with, became much easier under Fan Wencheng's operation, and he might get unexpected results. If he was Manchu, he might not have thought of such a solution , That is to say, after receiving Fan Wencheng's report, Huang Taiji made a decision and discussed this matter with many Manchu nobles.

Daishan's prestige among the Manchu nobles is still good, which is mainly due to Daishan's non-competition for power and profit. Over the years, Dorgon and Duoduo brothers have become stronger and stronger, faintly surpassing Daishan. In his eyes, he did not do anything special. As the son of Nurhachi and the boss of many royal families, Daishan's attitude of indifference to fame and fortune also reassured Huang Taiji, although Huang Taiji still had to guard against Daishan. What action, Daishan obeys the command, even if it is used as a flag, when Dorgon attacked Dengzhou and Laizhou, he complained, which is not easy.

So after Huang Taiji announced the exchange conditions of the Ming Dynasty, many Manchu nobles, with absolute unity of opinion, all demanded the exchange, and the action must be quick, you can send envoys to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and specifically discuss the exchange matters. Negotiations make love wrong.Strive for Daishan to return to the Qing Dynasty as soon as possible.

No one doubted that Dai Shan would seek refuge with Daming. In everyone's impression, it was impossible for Dai Shan to do such a thing, and Huang Taiji did not show Dai Shan's personal letter to everyone.This personal letter is Daishan's real sentiment, and many Manchu nobles cannot understand it.

In fact, Huang Taiji also wanted to exchange Daishan back. After such a huge ordeal, it can be said that Daishan's understanding is different from ordinary people. If Daishan can come back, he will definitely come up with some good suggestions. North Korea's strategy, although Fan Wencheng's idea is good, is full of people.Such strategic talents cannot appear.This is Huang Taiji's heart disease.It was also a problem that Huang Taiji wanted to solve.

Everyone's opinions have been finished, and there are no different opinions, all of which are required to be exchanged. [

Huang Taiji waited until everyone finished speaking.Finally spoke.

"I know that blood is thicker than water. You all want to exchange, but have you ever thought about what kind of fluctuations will be caused after the exchange? My Qing Dynasty wants to rule the Central Plains and overthrow the Ming Dynasty. Manchus, can it be done? Could it be that with our small number of Manchurians, we can be the enemy of the world? You have all seen the performance of Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying. I don’t want to say anything depressing. I can conclude Yes, with Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying, we can defeat our Manchus."

After Huang Taiji said these words, there were crows and sparrows in the hall. In the past, some people might not be convinced or refute, but the hard facts are in front of them, and no one will continue to be confident. Self-confidence in principle is self-inflicted perish.

"I also want to exchange. Daishan is my second elder brother. He was captured alive by the Ming Dynasty. I feel very uncomfortable, but I think more about it. The prosperity of my Qing Dynasty is inseparable from the contribution of the Han people. Over the years Since then, I have always emphasized that you must treat the Han people well. Some of you simply say that the Han people are born to be the slaves of the Manchus. The Qing Dynasty is so big that if we completely rely on our Manchus for hunting and not farming food, Can it be maintained? In the past, when the Eight Banners were full, you could enter the customs and plunder, gather wealth, and get something for nothing. Is it still possible now? Since Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying entered Liaodong, the decisive battle between the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty has actually begun. It's a critical moment."

When he said this, Huang Taiji stood up.

"If we can't face this decisive battle correctly, our Qing Dynasty will be in danger of subjugation. At the critical moment, what do we need to do? Do I need to remind you that everyone in our Qing Dynasty must unite Unanimity, to deal with the upcoming battles and killings, so that we can tide over the difficulties and calmly face dangers. Su Tiancheng's shrewdness lies in this place. He knows that the unity of our Qing Dynasty is the greatest thing to him. Threats, so I used this kind of trick to drive a wedge between the Manchus and the Han people in the Qing Dynasty, but what did you say just now?"

Huang Taiji's face was very ugly. His anger was aimed at most of the Manchus. Bravery on the battlefield is important, but strategic thinking is even more important. He can conquer the world immediately, but he cannot rule the world on horseback.

"All you think of is the exchange, but you didn't mention the possible shock after the exchange. Have you ever thought that if this exchange is deliberately used by the Ming Dynasty, it will chill all the Han people in the Qing Dynasty? , will make them betray our Great Qing Kingdom, if that happens, shall we go back to hunting between the black mountains and the white waters?"

"You keep saying that the Han people are slaves and should contribute to our Qing Dynasty. There is no need to consider such exchange matters, but have you ever thought about it? If all Han people betray our Qing Dynasty, Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying will Taking advantage of this opportunity, launch a general offensive. At that time, with our full population, can we guarantee victory? Let alone the far, the soldiers and horses will go first before the food and grass are moved. What will the army eat? Victory?"

Huang Taiji looked a little sad.

Saying these words is actually a manifestation of Huang Taiji venting his inner dissatisfaction. When he was critically ill, these Manchu nobles began to think about the struggle for power. This is a thorn in Huang Taiji's heart, and it is impossible to completely I forgot, because of the future of the Qing Dynasty, and because he is the emperor, such things can only be endured, but when there is a chance, it is still possible to vent your inner anger.

The hall was very quiet. After Huang Taiji finished speaking, he waved his hands.

"You all go back, I want to think about it, Wen Cheng stays."

Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi entered the Chongde Hall.

Needless to say, the misery in the hearts of the two of them is at this time. Even if there is any grievance, they must hold it in their hearts and dare not speak out, otherwise not only themselves, but also their family members will encounter disasters. At that time, they should have such mental preparations. They thought that Kong Youde's life was very bitter, and he was executed by Ling Chi of the Ming Dynasty. Now it seems that their ending is the same, not much better. [

The two knelt on the ground, Huang Taiji came down and helped them up himself.

"I came to you today to tell you that this exchange is a trick of the Ming Dynasty. I will never fall for it. You are the mainstay of my Qing Dynasty, and I will not abandon you."

Fan Wencheng, who was standing on the side, signaled to Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi with winks that they both understood what to do next and had to do so.

Monk Geng Zhongming knelt down again, and it was Geng Zhongming who spoke.

"The emperor's great kindness, the servant feels the same. The status of a slave cannot be valued in the Ming Dynasty. The emperor named the slave the king, and the slave is satisfied. The prince of Li is the pillar of our Qing Dynasty. The slave can exchange the prince of Li. , is glory, I implore the emperor to make a decision, and I am willing to exchange."

Shang Kexi followed suit.

"The slave is willing to exchange, I implore the emperor for permission."

Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng from the corner of his eye, and felt deeply in his heart, whoever said that the Han people were not united, who said that the Han people were cowardly, still knew how to grasp the principles, Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi, I am afraid that they are the thorn in the side of the Ming Dynasty, and at a critical moment , I also know to make a wise decision. If all Han people have this understanding, how could the Qing Dynasty overthrow the Ming Dynasty.

"I know what you think, but I won't do this."

After Huang Taiji said this, Fan Wencheng also came over and knelt down.

"My servant implores the emperor to grant the request of King Huaishun and King Zhishun. A scholar is a confidant who dies, and a woman is a woman who pleases herself. The two princes have received the emperor's grace. At this critical moment, they are willing to exchange. This loyalty is worthless to the emperor." Don't say no."

Huang Taiji still didn't express his position, and his posture still needs to be sufficient.

Geng Zhongming spoke again.

"Your Majesty, the slave monk Kexi is sincerely begging for the emperor's permission. The slave also has requirements. If the family can be taken care of, the slave is satisfied. The slave monk Kexi has already told the officers under him that the Ming Dynasty proposed to exchange the slave for the prince. In fact, it is also a battle, this battle requires the contribution of the slave, if the slave retreats, it is a deserter."

Huang Taiji was stunned for a moment.

"I understand your thoughts, and I will seriously consider them. No matter what the choice is, I swear here that the Han people and the Manchus are both citizens of the Qing Dynasty. The Han people are not slaves. The Han people made it for the Qing Dynasty. Contribution is no worse than that of the Manchus. You are right. This is a battle. I know that you are brave soldiers. You are the Batulu of my Qing Dynasty. Don't worry, I will take care of your family. , if anyone dares to disrespect your family members, I will never forgive you lightly."

Speaking of this step, in fact, everything has been confirmed.

This was not finished yet, and Fan Wencheng asked Geng Zhongming and Shang Kexi to make a big publicity among the many Han officers, showing Huang Taiji's grace, and the two voluntarily made contributions to the Qing Dynasty, and voluntarily exchanged gifts. Good, and Huang Taiji is not allowed, it is the desperate request of the two to achieve the goal.

Such a scene, even if it has come to a successful conclusion, the next step is to implement it.
