Miss the Emperor?
Could it be that Dorgon also pretended to be dead and became a monk?
In which temple? Go and invite me quickly!
Suo'etu and Fu all looked at Bumbutai in surprise, while Aunt Bu glared at her son with her small eyes: "Fu Lin, I can't conjure up a Dorgon to help you and Xuan Ye."
The great monk Shunzhi smiled bitterly and said: "Mother, you misunderstood, I never thought about letting Dorgon come back to life to clean up the mess. Even if I had this idea, he wouldn't survive!
What I mean is that Xuan Ye is now trapped in Xi'an by Wu Yingxiong and cannot leave, so he needs the regent Huang Ama to help him take charge of the overall situation in order to lead the Qing Dynasty through the current disaster. Otherwise, as the emperor is in Xi'an, it would be difficult for memorials from outside to be delivered to him, and it would be difficult for his edicts to be disseminated to the outside world. As time goes by, wouldn't everything be in chaos? "
"It is true that someone must take charge of the overall situation for Xuan Ye." Bumu Butai nodded, "But who can be the regent of Emperor Ama? Your brothers who are still alive are all just waiting to die. My son, he doesn’t look like he can be the regent.”
Huang Taiji still has a few sons alive, including the fourth son Ye Bushu, the seventh son Changshu, and the tenth son Taosai. However, because their mother's status is too low, the three of them are all worthless concubines, so they just do whatever they want. So he was appointed a auxiliary Duke to deal with it, but he was not qualified to enter the eighth rank (obtain the assistant collar). If there is no assistant leader, there will be no direct subordinate group of servants. If there is no king, there will be no palace guards. If you are just a bachelor, without anyone to help you, it will naturally be difficult for you to get out of the Taoist priesthood.
"Mother," the great monk Shunzhi shook his head and said, "you have misunderstood again. The Emperor Ama and the Regent are two people. Of course the Emperor Ama is me! I am Xuan Ye's Ama! Of course I have to help him. Bundle.
As for the regent, of course he is Fuquan. Fuquan and I can't compare to Dorgon? "
"Ah, so that's it!" Bumbutai looked at Shunzhi, who was dressed as a monk, and then at Fuquan, who looked not very smart, and said in his heart: It's really incomparable. Dorgon is a big man. The King of Cleverness knows how to scheming people! Next to him is the brave Wang Duduo who cooperates and is a good fighter. One of them is extremely sinister and the other is invincible. How can you compare?
Although we know that the two brothers Fulin and Fuquan (both are born with the word "Fu"), no, they are Ye Liang, they can't compare to Dorgon and Duoduo, but now there is no Dorgon and Duoduo, only Fulin and Fuquan.
"Fu Lin, tell me how you plan to help Xuan Ye?" Bumbutai asked.
"Mother," said the great monk Shunzhi, "do you know what caused the current disaster in our Qing Dynasty?"
"Why?" Bumbutai thought for a while and sighed, "It's not because Xuan Ye was too impatient to cut down the vassal. If it takes another ten or eight years to wait until the old guy Wu Sangui is taken over by God, There would be no current situation.”
Shunzhi shook his head and said: "Eniang, you are wrong. Even if it were ten years later and the vassalage was reduced after Wu Yingxiong came to the throne, there would still be a big chaos. This chaos might be even bigger!
Look at the fighting abilities of Wu Yingqi, Wu Guogui, Wu Yingxiong, Wu Shicong, Wu Shifan, and Wu Shijue. How are they inferior to Wu Sangui? Besides, what have our Eight Banners children been doing all these years? How are the children of Wu Sangui and Xifan living? How much has the population of our Eight Banners descendants increased? How did they give birth to children in Pingxi Fan? "
Bumbutai nodded lightly: "Fu Lin, what you are saying now is similar to what Xuan Ye said at the time. He also feels that the power of San Francisco will continue to grow if it is dragged on! And the imperial court may become weaker and weaker! "
Shunzhi smiled and said: "That is inevitable! The San Francisco is getting stronger and the imperial court is getting weaker. In fact, it was already doomed when Dorgon took most of the Eight Banners disciples to settle in Beijing! "
Bumbutai understood what his son was talking about, but remained silent. Fuquan didn't quite understand, so he asked in a low voice: "Amma, what do you mean by this? Isn't it a good thing for us Eight Banners disciples to settle in Beijing? How wonderful Beijing is! Why are we destined to become weaker and weaker?"
The great monk Shunzhi shook his head and said: "The Eight Banners disciples gathered in Beijing just to facilitate the control of the imperial court. They just wanted to evade the banner masters, and to gather all the records in their hands to Beijing and put them under the eyes of the imperial court. Then each of the Eight Banners would They all have their own yamen to control them.
This actually took away the feudal power of the banner owners, turning them from princes to relatives of the imperial court. This method is actually the same as Zhao Kuangyin’s drinking wine to release military power!
So after our Eight Banners disciples settled in Beijing, they gradually became a bit like the Bianliang Imperial Army of the Northern Song Dynasty. Although they were not as weak as the Bianliang Imperial Army of the Northern Song Dynasty, there were many Imperial Guards in the Northern Song Dynasty! But how many children of the Eight Banners do we have?
And because Wu Sangui and others retained the feudal system, they developed into a feudal town like the Dingnan Army! Fuquan, think about how much effort the Song Dynasty had to fight against Li Yuanhao, the army in trouble? "
Not to mention, Shunzhi is very clear about the underlying logic of the evolution of the Eight Banners military system. After all, he is also one of the parties involved!
"Huang Ama, what should we do?" Fu Quanzhen was a little anxious, "Now we have to deal with not only Wu Sangui, but also Prince Zhu, Li Zicheng, Geng Jingzhong, Liu Jinzhong, Wang Fuchen, Zheng Jing. There are really more and more traitors!"
Monk Shunzhi said: "Fuquan, don't be anxious! In fact, the tactics for dealing with these rebels have already been written in the history books!"
When the great monk Shunzhi mentioned the history books, Fuquan's head got a little big! Isn't this Huang Ama going to check my homework? I don't really like reading history books, but Xuan Ye likes it. From time to time, he will hold a history book and ponder it. After a while, he will say that powerful officials like Obai have always brought disaster to the country and the people in history and must be eradicated as soon as possible!
After a while, he said that the vassals and vassal kings in history were not good people. If they were not eradicated as soon as possible, there would definitely be Qing Dynasty versions of the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, the Eight Kings Rebellion, the Anshi Rebellion, etc.
But looking at it now, it seems that Xuan Ye was deceived by those history books. If he has that kind of skill, he might as well be a debauched and immoral king!
Thinking of this, Fuquan frowned and asked: "Huang Ama, please stop hiding it. If you have any clever ideas, just tell the child directly!"
"Oh, you, you just don't study, you don't even know this!"
As he spoke, Shunzhi sighed. He knew that his eldest son didn't like reading very much - he was just a naughty child, and he was definitely his own! And Xuan Ye has been a child prodigy since he was a child. I don’t know who he looks like?
"Fuquan," Shunzhi paused, then said, "Let me tell you this, the knowledge of holding power lies in grasping and releasing. It is not possible to seize all the power in your hands. You want to seize the power at all times. That’s not possible either.”
"Oh, I understand!" Bumbutai said, "Fu Lin, haven't you been saying for a long time that you want to delegate the power that you had finally collected before? Xuan Ye has actually already done this!"
The great monk Shunzhi nodded and said: "Xuan Ye is a smart boy. Of course he understands this truth. His purpose of removing Aobai and cutting down the Western Fan is to seize power! He and Dorgon allowed most of the Eight Banners disciples to settle down Beijing's purpose is the same.
Later, after being deceived by Wu Sangui in Sichuan, he began to delegate power again. For example, he let Chang Ning be the general of Shengjing, let you be the stay-at-home guard in Beijing, and let Yue Le take charge of the military affairs of Liangjiang, Zhejiang, and Fujian. They were all delegating power. This delegation of power allows the people below to do things easily, and it also gives the people below the opportunity to put more money in their pockets, so that they can be more energetic in fighting. After all, if you lose your territory, you can't get anything back. However, Xuan Ye's action of delegating power was still a little slow and not strong enough. "
"Not big yet?" Bumbutai muttered, "I think it's already quite big!"
"Mother," Shunzhi said with a smile, "it depends on who you compare with. Compared with the speed of delegating power in the Ming Dynasty, it is much faster.
But compared with the Jiugong feudalism implemented by the Jin Dynasty after moving the capital to Bianliang and the Han princes granted by the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty when they invaded the Central Plains, they were much worse.
Moreover, both the Jin Dynasty and the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty delegated power to the Han people, and the force was quite strong. The princes they granted could open government offices, appoint officials, collect taxes, and issue rewards and punishments. This was almost done to the end.
Except for Guangdong, Hunan and other places that had actually lost control for a long time, Xuan Ye only delegated power to the Manchus in other places, and he only delegated it bit by bit in places where the situation was precarious. "
"Then how are you going to let it go?" Bumbutai asked.
"Of course it is a drastic release!" said the great monk Shunzhi. "Even if we do not follow the method of the feudal Jiugong, we must follow the Tang Dynasty's method of setting up Jiedu envoys. Not only must we delegate power to the two rivers that are already in chaos, but we must also Henan, Shandong, and Shanxi, which are not yet in chaos, have established military envoys and appointed Han generals as military envoys to rely on their strength to deal with Prince Zhu San and Wu Sangui.
In addition, the power given to Fuquan and Changning must be delegated even more! Fuquan can be the regent, in charge of the affairs of the state, and the governor of all internal and external military affairs, plus the governor-general of Zhili, the general manager of Chahar and Tumut. Chang Ning will be the political king, the general of Shengjing, and the governor of the country! "
"Isn't this too strong?" Bumbutai looked at his son, "You are not delegating power at all. You are simply tearing down the Qing Dynasty!"
"Why was it demolished?" said the great monk Shunzhi, "Mother, look at the Zhili and Monan grasslands, which are in the hands of Fuquan. Chang Ning looks after the hometown outside Guan. The rich land of Liangjiang is owned by Yue Lehe Jie Shu looked east and west. Xuanye was holding the Guanlong side. These territories are all in the hands of our Aixinjueluo family. It is only Henan, Shandong, and Shanxi that have been released, so there is no need to The entire province can be released, as long as a military envoy is placed in a critical place.
Moreover, we can also give these pieces of land to the most reliable Han generals. Fuquan, I heard that you have a few very useful Han generals? "
"Yes, yes," Fuquan said, "Zhang Yong, the nine-men admiral and commander of the fifth patrol battalion, and Zhao Liangdong, the military training minister, are both loyal and capable Han generals."
The great monk Shunzhi nodded: "There is also Fan Wencheng's family, and Li Yongfang's family has also arranged a military governor. I heard that Fan Chengxun, the third eldest son of Fan Wencheng's family, and Sajiabao, the grandson of Li Yongfang, are still worthy of use, and both Fan and Li The family has a steward and a leader, and there are hundreds of servants in the family, so there must be many available people under his command."
"Zhang Yong, Zhao Liangdong, Fan Chengxun, Sakyamuni," Fu Quan counted on his fingers, "That's the four military governors! Where can I put them?"
Suo'etu, who had been kneeling there without saying much, interjected: "The Emperor and the Regent, why don't we put two in Henan and two in Shandong? Shanxi is under the jurisdiction of Moro, the governor of Shanxi and Shaanxi. Moro is in Taiyuan now, why not let us leave He opened a mansion in Taiyuan.
In addition, there are many Shanxi merchants in Shanxi who contributed a lot to the Qing Dynasty's takeover of the world. If Prince Wu Sangui or Zhu San conquered Shanxi, the eight imperial merchants would definitely not be able to keep it. If the regent asked them to set up a team training, they would definitely give up their family and wealth and go all out. "
"Are you calling us the regent?" Bumbutai squinted his eyes and glanced at Suo'etu, "Are you a little impatient? Fuquan is not the regent yet!"
As he spoke, he looked at his son again.
Fulin smiled and said: "Suo'etu, your method is good. I also know this Mo Luo, and he is quite respectful." At this point, he paused again, seeming to be thinking about how to make Fuquan the regent. , "As for the regent of Fuquan, how about I write a posthumous edict?"
"Posthumous edict?" Bumbutai glanced at his son, "Fu Lin, the emperor's decree is called a posthumous edict?"
"No, no" Fulin waved his hand, "Mother, I don't want to be the emperor and the two masters of one country. Aren't I going to cause trouble to Xuan Ye? I will continue to be my monk. Oh, queen, beloved concubine, you guys Don't pinch the poor monk too hard, the poor monk means to be a monk at home!"
The two Mongolian aunts who were holding Fulin tightly, fearing that they would lose him again, breathed a sigh of relief and showed a satisfied smile.
"Then why did you, a monk at home, issue a posthumous edict?" Bumbutai still didn't understand.
Fulin smiled and said: "Mother, what I mean is that the date of this edict is the day before my Zen retreat. I was the emperor before my retreat. Only the emperor's edict can be greater than the emperor's imperial edict, and can I be named regent. Otherwise, Even the Supreme Emperor’s will cannot be greater than the Emperor’s imperial decree!”
Not to mention, this Fulin is quite particular. He can't create one country with two masters. The Qing Dynasty is in chaos now. If there is another emperor who is "a kind father and a filial son", then stop struggling and forget about the country's subjugation.
So he simply made up a posthumous edict. Emperor Shunzhi's posthumous edict must be greater than Kangxi's imperial edict!
Didn't Kangxi become emperor because of Emperor Shunzhi's edict?
Now Shunzhi added a secret edict, saying that if Kangxi could not manage the government and his son was young, the virtuous and loyal Prince Yu Fuquan would be the regent!
This Emperor Amama is so thoughtful!
Kangxi would have been very moved if he knew it.
Bumbutai thought for a while and had no choice but to nod: "Okay, that's it, but we can't ignore Xuan Ye's safety. He's trapped in Xi'an City and can't escape!"
Fuquan, a good brother, knew that his regent was stable, and he began to worry about the safety of his younger brother Kangxi, so he asked Monk Shunzhi: "Huang Ama, what should we do next to rescue the emperor from Xi'an?"
"Rescue?" Monk Shunzhi shook his head, "It's not to save, but to relieve the difficulties in Xi'an and block Wu Yingxiong's retreat. This is a military matter, and my father doesn't quite understand it. You go discuss it with Zhao Liangdong and Zhang Yong. Go! But you must remember that you must not take any risks this time. Our strength is limited, so we have to keep it just in case!"
Fuquan nodded, deeply convinced, "My son, I obey your order!"
Xi'an, the Qing Emperor is here.
This male city in Guanzhong was not actually surrounded by Wu Yingxiong, because Wu Yingxiong's troops were too small, only forty thousand, and they were quite scattered, which was not enough to besiege Xi'an City. His deployment of Xi'an was "only" at best. guard".
However, Kangxi was unable to break this guard for the time being - Wu Yingxiong and Wu Shifan controlled several counties and important places around Xi'an. If Kangxi wanted to break these important places, he would have to fight several tough battles with heavy casualties.
But now, Kangxi had limited troops and could not afford to fight such a tough battle. But if we do not attack the fortress but use siege, we are afraid that Wu soldiers from other places who are not besieged will rush to fight in the field.
So Kangxi is now confronting Wu Yingxiong, and he can still keep in touch with Fuquan, Henan, Shanxi, Shandong, Zhili, Liangjiang, Zhejiang, Fujian and other places.
A few days later, Bumbutai took out Shunzhi's edict (the ink was still wet), and named Fuquan the regent, taking charge of the government, supervising all military affairs at home and abroad, and adding him as the governor of Zhili and the general manager of Chahar and Tumote. This "good news" spread to Xi'an.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something big has happened."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good!"
The ones who brought bad news to Kangxi were his teachers Chen Tingjing and Xiong Cilu. The two Han ministers, who were usually relatively calm, almost rushed in from two places today. Among them, Chen Tingjing still held a copy of the newly collected There is also a copy of the newspaper from Beijing Residence in Xi'an, but they don't need to read it.
Kangxi was bending over the imperial desk and looking at a map of the situation in Henan - he was thinking about how to fight the next battle in the Central Plains?
It's not enough to just force Wu Yingxiong and Wu Shifan back, they have to find a way to completely annihilate their army!
But this is not easy to do!
When Kangxi was in a bad mood, he suddenly heard the people below saying "something big happened" or "something bad happened". He immediately became nervous and raised his head and looked at his two teachers with burning eyes.
"What happened?" Kangxi asked.
"Your Majesty," Chen Tingjing said, "Prince Yu has now become our regent of the Qing Dynasty because of a legacy from the late emperor!"
"What? The edict? The regent?" Kangxi was stunned for a while, "Whose edict is it?"
"It's the last edict of the late Emperor Shizu Zhang!" Xiong Cilu said urgently and quickly, "It should be that the Empress Dowager took the initiative. The late emperor said in the last edict that if the emperor is unable to manage the government, it will be up to King Yu to Fuquan came to serve as regent! Now that the emperor is trapped, the empress dowager took out this edict! Your Majesty, look at this."
