Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 333 The Wrathful Dorgon

It is mentioned that Dorgon was a central figure in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. In some respects, without Dorgon, there would be no Qing army entering the customs, and there would be no unified Qing Dynasty.

Dorgon in history was an iron-blooded figure, self-willed, and a little vengeful. These can be seen from the royal power struggle within the Qing Dynasty after the death of Huang Taiji, the situation and fate of Prince Su Hauge and Aobai, who is known as the first warrior in Manchuria. , can be verified.

If you want to compare Emperor Chongzhen and Dorgon, Dorgon is just the opposite of Zhu Youjian. Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian has the life of an emperor but not the blessing of an emperor. , there were thieves everywhere, there were barbarian invasions from outside, the treasury was short of money, and natural and man-made disasters continued. Even though Emperor Chongzhen tried his best to govern, he even had to do everything by himself, but he was finally unable to recover, and finally fell into the tragic end of Meishan hanging himself.

On the contrary, Dorgon has the blessing of the emperor but no life of the emperor.It is said that he has the blessing of the emperor because Dorgon is the son of the Qing Taizu Nurhachi, and this person has the talents of the world, the ambition to govern the country and the gang, the text can govern the country, and the martial arts can secure the gang, and among the eight kings of the early Qing Dynasty, In terms of credit, it is also one of the best, and the conditions for becoming a generation of emperors are very sufficient.

It is said that he has no emperor's life because Nurhachi has too many sons, and all of them are full of dragons. There are four or five of them who are all-powerful. Azige the twelfth and Duoduo the fifteenth, any one you pull out will have the talent of a general.In terms of talents and virtues, Huang Taiji is above Dorgon, and in terms of seniority rankings, Dorgon is not at the top.

Therefore, after Nurhachi's death, the position of emperor was naturally Huang Taiji according to the ancestral precepts, and it was not his turn to Dorgon.

Finally, Huang Taiji passed away again, but Huang Taiji still had sons, according to the ancestral precepts, there are elders to establish elders, and no elders to establish young. Naturally, Huang Taiji's son will inherit the throne, and it is not his turn to be an uncle inherit.

But Dorgon was not reconciled, and felt that he was more suitable to sit in this chair no matter from which point of view. In terms of seniority and contribution, Prince Su Hauge was incomparable to him. However, the tradition of inheriting his father's career has been going on for thousands of years. Of course, Hauge will not give in generously, that is the throne that many people are jealous of!

Hauge tried his best to protect his legal inheritance, so Dorgon fought openly and secretly with him.In terms of strength, Prince Su Hauge is not as good as Prince Rui Dorgon, but at the critical moment, Oboi, who is known as the number one warrior in Manchuria, led the elite of the two banners to surround the palace. , Once again missed the emperor.

But Dorgon was scheming and made a puppet Shunzhi, who became the regent, the actual second emperor.So that later, not only Haug and Aobai were calculated by Dorgon, but even his brother Azig was suppressed to death.

But in any case, Dorgon failed to sit on the coveted throne until his death.This is the historical struggle between Dorgon and the royal family. From this, it can be seen that although Dorgon was the regency of the Qing Dynasty and had power in the court, he did not live an easy life. Like Emperor Chongzhen, he also died of internal and external troubles.

Now because of Zhu Yousong's time travel, the regent has caused more trouble.In just half a year, Zhu Yousong stabilized the situation in Nanming, cleaned up the court, and dealt with the disobedient warlords. Moreover, because he used troops to recover the lost ground in the north, he objectively relieved the pressure on the Dashun Army. Li Zicheng's victory ended.

In addition, Zhu Yousong sent troops to conquer Zuo Liangyu and his son in Wuchang, and even the two princes of the Qing court and other [-] Tartars were all cleaned up. Dorgon must not look at this Southern Ming emperor with admiration, adjusted his strategic deployment, and focused on the use of troops. Transferred to the Henan battlefield.

However, the capital is not calm.Inside the imperial court, Huang Taiji passed away, Shunzhi ascended the throne, the Qing army entered the customs, and the capital was moved from Shengjing to Beijing. In the great Ming Dynasty, Dorgon had to deal with all major internal and external affairs, so he was so busy in the capital that he was spanked with his heels.

Now Dorgon is losing his temper. The reason is that a few days ago, news of defeat came from the Henan battlefield one after another. casualties.

But Prince Ying's people disappointed Dorgon too much. He even lost battles and lost troops. Thirty thousand Qing troops were lost.

What makes Dorgon even more intolerable is that since Wu Sangui surrendered to their Qing Dynasty, he secretly colluded with the false emperor Zhu Yousong and involved Zu Dashou. , I want to see how many times the Qing Dynasty has lost battles, and I want to step on two boats, which is tolerable or unbearable!
Dorgon received the memorial from Prince Azige and two letters from Zhu Yousong. He was furious and furious. He sent Wu Sangui to death row and arrested Zu Dashou's family and Wu Sangui's new family. , And immediately ordered Li Hong Chengchou to go to Luliang Mountain to replace Zu Dashou. After Zu Dashou's military power was lifted, he was transferred to the capital to control him, and his head was to be beheaded.

The traitor Fan Wencheng hurriedly stopped him, "My lord calm down, can you listen to the humble official?"

"What does Fan Gong have to say? This king hates capricious people the most in his life. Does Fan Gong want to intercede for them?" Dorgon had a straight face, and he was not nice to Fan Wencheng, probably because he was also a Han Chinese. .

"I don't dare. This matter is of great importance. I think this may be Zhu Yousong's plan to divorce the traitor. My lord, don't forget what happened to Yuan Chonghuan back then." Fan Wencheng is worthy of being one of China's top ten counselors, immediately I suspect there is a problem here.

"Oh, sir, why did you see it?" Dorgon's tone also eased. Yuan Chonghuan was Huang Taiji who used a divorce scheme. After Emperor Chongzhen fell for it, Yuan Chonghuan was in tragedy. The Qing Dynasty lost a strong enemy. How could he do this? forget?

"Your Majesty, let's not talk about King Pingxi for the time being. Since his return to the Qing Dynasty, Zu Zongbing has repeatedly made military exploits and has been loyal to the Qing Dynasty. There has been nothing suspicious in the past few years. This is obvious to all. Zhu Yousong, the false emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty, ascended the throne In the past, he was Xiao Fu Wang. He was in Luoyang with the old Fu Wang. He had never had any contact with Zu Zongbing. Younger and younger, and his whole family are all in the capital, how could he have two minds? Moreover, judging from Prince Ying's memorial, there are more doubts. The prince should not act hastily. He fell into Zhu Yousong's tricks and killed Wouldn’t it be quick to kill a hero? Moreover, Zu Dashou’s troops are all elite, especially since he is a Zu Dayu, if he overthrows the ancestor’s army, it will be even more troublesome.”

Hearing what Fan Wencheng said was reasonable, Dorgon ordered people to search the ancestral mansion and the Hepingxi Palace carefully, but found nothing, but these two letters from Zhu Yousong really made him feel at ease. , isn't it a legacy of nourishing carbuncle?
Fan Wencheng also suggested to Dorgon to put the two of them under house arrest first, and ordered Zu Dashou to take the elite of his headquarters to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds to verify the authenticity.

Dorgon thinks this plan is feasible, just at this moment, Duoduo and Azig's rehearsal comes again...
