Daishan's face was a little abnormally red. He looked energetic, but in fact he was completely exhausted. Yue Tuo could see clearly that his Amma was indeed in a flashback and could die at any time.
"You...are here!" Seeing Yue Tuo looking at him blankly, Daishan squeezed out a smile and said, "Ama has...a few words that must...must be said!"
Seeing how difficult it was for him to speak, Yue Tuo walked over silently and sat down by the bed without saying a word.
"It's not easy for the Manchu people... to be where they are today!" As Dai Shan spoke, he tried his best to reach over and hold Yue Tuoxu's hand on the bedside, "If we lose... our clan will be destroyed. You should I understand. For the sake of the Qing Dynasty... for the Manchu people... and for my love for the Xinjieluo family, we must unite... unite..."
At the end of the sentence, Yue Tuo could feel his Amma holding his hand harder and harder. When she turned around to look, she saw that his face was flushed. He seemed to have something to say, but couldn't, so he was holding back like this.
Suddenly, Yue Tuo could feel that the hand holding his had lost all strength. He looked down and saw that the chicken-foot-like hand was already lying limply beside the bed. He suddenly looked up and saw Daishan's hand. His head has also dropped, and his body is slowly tilting.
"Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty..."
Suddenly, there was a sound of panic in the house, and someone was shouting to the shaman to take a look or something.
Only Yue Tuo remained silent and stood up slowly, silently looking at Daishan who was being supported and lying down. He knew in his heart that his Ama was dead!
Although Daishan didn't finish his words, Yue Tuo understood what he was going to say. It is simply that under the threat of genocide, we must unite and avoid internal strife. Dorgon is the most talented among you, support him and so on.
"Old man, you are still facing outsiders after you die!" Yue Tuo suddenly spoke, cursed in a low voice, turned around and walked away in a stride. The people who were left in the room looked at each other in shock when they heard this, but they did not dare to say anything.
Soon, news of Daishan's death spread throughout Shengjing. However, at this time, the people in power in Shengjing were busy confronting each other and fighting for power, and had no time to care about the life and death of a prince without any strength. Even within the palace, there was only a decree expressing condolences.
Although Daishan is Yue Tuo's amma, they all know that the relationship between Daishan and Yue Tuo is not good, especially after the battle for the throne after Huang Taiji's death, they became strangers. They all thought that maybe Yue Tuo would be happy when Dai Shan died. If they went to mourn at this time, Yue Tuo might secretly remember it. Especially after what Yue Tuo said when Daishan was about to die spread, no one risked offending Yue Tuo to worship Daishan.
Even Dodo thinks so. Therefore, it doesn't mean anything. After all, Yue Tuo now holds military power. No matter where he joins, he will have a huge advantage and cannot be offended.
However, a few days later, after Dorgon led his army back to Shengjing, Dorgon was not allowed to enter the palace because the palace was jointly controlled by Hauge and Obai. There were also rumors that Hauge was persuading the Queen Mother to issue a decree to withdraw from the palace. Ergon's title of "imperial uncle and regent".
At this time, everyone felt that Dorgon would definitely reverse the situation, and civil war might be about to break out.
However, no one expected that after Dorgon arrived in Shengjing, he did not pay attention to the power struggle. Instead, he went to cry and worship in front of the good deity in plain clothes. He was so sincere that everyone who heard it shed tears.
No, this scene made everyone in Prince Li's mansion burst into tears. Finally, the prince is here!
As soon as this news spread, Hauge immediately laughed. Yue Tuo, his son, didn't even go. What does it mean? It means that he doesn't like his father and has a bad relationship with him. Dorgon had eaten his fill, wasn't this a slap in Yue Tuo's face? Besides, Daishan doesn’t have many subordinates. Who can you show to and win over?
Therefore, Hauge prepared to go to Yue Tuo, taking this matter as an opportunity to win over Yue Tuo. In this way, he could completely overwhelm the military power of Dorgon and the Duoduo brothers.
However, what he never expected was that when he arrived at Yue Tuo's house, he heard from his servants that Yue Tuo had paid a grand visit to the regent.
"..." After hearing this, Hauge couldn't help but be stunned. He felt like his mind was a little lost. This is not normal!
What happened next was nothing unexpected. Yue Tuo announced that he would support Dorgon to continue to be regent and lead the Qing Dynasty to overcome difficulties together.
Dorgon then reprimanded Hauge for leading the army to flee first during the Battle of Yaozhouyi, which resulted in the death of Azig.
The situation turned sharply, and public opinion in Shengjing suddenly turned against Hauge. Finally, the Queen Mother decreed that Dorgon be named "Emperor Father and Regent" and asked him to lead the Qing Dynasty and continue its development.
Hauge's conspiracy to seize power failed again, and he had no choice but to surrender to Dorgon.
Dorgon was also generous. He did not deprive him of his military power, nor demote his title. He just made a generous speech, saying that when the Qing Dynasty was in crisis, it was even more important to work together to help Dorgon. This move once again saved Dorgon a lot. prestige.
The crisis of seizing power was thus resolved.
On the night when he returned to Chongzheng Hall, Dorgon met Ning Wanwo alone at his house and repeatedly praised him for his good idea.
"This is the master's own ability and has nothing to do with the slave." Ning Wanwa's injuries have not fully healed yet and he is still wrapped in a bandage, but he said with a charming smile on his face, "The slave is just a reminder. "
However, Dorgon directly ignored this sentence and still praised: "In terms of intrigues, you Han people dare to be second, and no one dares to be first. This is a well-known thing. This matter is yours." The credit is your credit. Please rest in peace and recuperate, I will never treat you badly."
After listening to Ning Wan, I felt proud in my heart, but on the outside, I quickly showed my sincerity and trepidation before receiving this commendation.
In this matter, it was indeed Ning Wan who gave Dorgon great advice, which ultimately led Dorgon to take these actions.
The reason is very simple. Ruling the world with filial piety has been a principle since ancient times. For unfilial people, even if they are suppressed by force, they cannot suppress people's support. Especially when the end of the Qing Dynasty is approaching and people are panicked, they need a master they can rely on. If you are ruthless and ruthless in order to fight for power, who knows if you will abandon yourself in the future!
By worshiping Daishan and rebuking Haug for killing Azig, Dorgon well conveyed the fact to others that he, Dorgon, was their trustworthy king.
However, including Ning Wan and I, they actually don’t understand Yue Tuo.
In fact, before Daishan died, Yue Tuo had already had an idea in his mind after he tried his best to remind him that if he failed, the clan would be destroyed. What I did later was just to see how Dorgon was doing, and the result was needless to say.
However, although Dorgon stabilized his power, the subsequent statistics of the situation in various places gave him the urge to return the title of regent to his royal father.
Although when he was in Yaozhouyi, he had ordered to rob grain and horses to escape, but how much grain could the cavalry army bring, not to mention that there was not much grain in the first place.
Now that the granaries in the Liaohe Plain have been burned down, there is no hope at all. Fortunately, the fishing fleet can provide some food, but no matter what, the winter in Daqing will not survive. Even if you kill more than half of the stolen horses, it won't solve the problem at all. The matter of the two-legged sheep has also been mentioned on the agenda. However, if you don’t eat too much of this, it will also kill you.
Dorgon also thought about sending troops to the north to grab some food, but this time he didn't want anyone. However, we had already snatched it once last time. Even if there were some fish that slipped through the net, how much could we grab? Besides, if those vicious demons appear in the north, they might be eaten by them. Then it will be the Qing Dynasty’s turn to go north to rob things?
If the Ming Dynasty did not come to fight against the Qing Dynasty, it would be a blessing from heaven. If they dared to rob it, then the longevity star would really hang himself because he thought his life was too long.
The only hope now is the one sent to North Korea to grab autumn grain. However, Dorgon is not optimistic either. North Korea has been robbed by the Qing Dynasty countless times. How many fish can be left that have slipped through the net? Even if the more careful Fan Wencheng is sent, there probably won't be many.
Thinking of this, Dorgon couldn't help but get a headache again.
Kong Youde's betrayal made the Qing Dynasty very disgusted with the Han people. Even Ning Wanwo, Dorgon didn't dare to let him show up in public, so he just hid in his own house. If Fan Wencheng comes back, he might be targeted.
Speaking of which, how could Kong Youde betray the Qing Dynasty? Even the Qing Dynasty named him the King of Obedience. Isn’t this enough?
Dorgon touched his sore temples and continued to think in his heart. Sometimes, he really couldn't figure out who was loyal to the Qing Dynasty and who had dissatisfaction with the Qing Dynasty? At least before, I never thought that Kong Youde would betray!
As he was thinking about it, suddenly, a bodyguard hurried in and reported to him: "Master, the Han Chinese Fan Wencheng was surrounded as soon as he arrived at the city gate. Many people shouted to kill him."
Upon hearing this, Dorgon immediately became anxious and rushed over in person without saying a word.
Before they reached the city gate, they saw a group of people surrounding a hanging man, beating him with whips and cursing loudly.
"You Chinese dog, I'll beat you to death!"
"If I don't sell it now, I will sell it to your master later. I can't kill you!"
"If you talk back, I'll slap you!"
"..."
Dorgon couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw that Fan Wencheng was not dead, and immediately shouted: "Stop!"
The Jianlu who were watching heard the sound and looked around. They found that it was Dorgon who had arrived, so they did not dare to make a mistake. After all, he was the emperor's father and regent now, so they knelt down to greet him.
Dorgon stopped his horse hurriedly, ignored them, and hurried forward. When he got in front of the hanging man, he found that the handsome Fan Wencheng had been disfigured, and his face was whipped several times. It was so bloody that he almost couldn't recognize it. .
He pulled out the knife, cut off his body himself, and saved Fan Wencheng. He said with guilt: "I came late, and I made you suffer!"
Fan Wencheng burst into tears on the spot. He worked hard for the Qing Dynasty in North Korea, but when he came back, he was treated like this. He felt wronged! How can there be such a master?
But after crying a few times, he fainted.
Dorgon saw that the beating was a bit severe, so he immediately took Fan Wencheng back to his house for treatment, and took several of the people who beat him into custody.
After a long time, Fan Wencheng woke up from the pain and opened his eyes. When he was about to beg for mercy, he found that it was Dorgon in front of him. He actually applied medicine to him personally. He was shocked and wanted to refuse, but Dorgon refused. Gun was drunk, and it was not until the bandage was finished that Dorgon said to Fan Wencheng, who only had his eyes exposed: "I have taken those people who beat you into custody. After you recover from your injuries, I will personally look at them." Wait, you go and fight back. How they beat you, you fight back!"
When Fan Wencheng heard this, he didn't even dare to say anything. He is not stupid, and the person who can beat him without any scruples must have a background and is not something he can afford to offend.
"How is the situation in North Korea?" Dorgon was concerned about this and asked immediately when he could talk.
As soon as Fan Wencheng heard this, he put aside his doubts and immediately replied: "I am sorry, I have not collected much food. It is true that all the Koreans have fled into the mountains and it is difficult to find it."
This result was within Dorgon's expectation, but after hearing it, he was still disappointed.
However, on the surface, he did not show any disappointment. Instead, he said kindly: "I love you, please rest in peace and recuperate. I have sent someone to pick you up because your family is small, so nothing will happen to you when you come to the palace."
After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.
But who would have expected that Fan Wencheng said, "Your Highness, I encountered a Japanese in Korea!"
"Oh!" Dorgon agreed smoothly. He had already turned around to leave. He suddenly stood up and came back to his senses. He stared down at Fan Wencheng and confirmed in surprise: "What, a Japanese?"
"Yes, the Japanese." Fan Wencheng endured the pain and replied, "Because of the appearance of the Japanese, the servant felt that the matter was of great importance and might be an opportunity for the Qing Dynasty, so he rushed back quickly and wanted to report to His Highness."
"How come there are Japanese people in North Korea?" Dorgon was very surprised. "You said you saw only one or two Japanese people, not fishermen or something like that?"
If so, it is estimated that Fan Wencheng would not report it so carefully.
Sure enough, when Fan Wencheng wanted to nod, but his injuries were affected, he suddenly hissed and took a breath of cold air. He had no choice but to remain motionless and replied: "It's the shogun in power of the Japanese country, a faction named Tokugawa Iemitsu." Came to spy on the situation in North Korea."
After hearing this, Dorgon immediately smelled an unusual smell. This sudden situation made him immediately concentrate and think.
At this time, the Qing Dynasty is like a turtle in a urn, and it is really about to become a lamb to be slaughtered by the Ming Dynasty. However, suddenly, when he heard noise coming from outside, there might be a chance to break the urn, how could Dorgon remain indifferent.
