Chapter 531: Minister of the Qing Dynasty
Zunhua City.
The name of Zunhua began in the Later Tang Dynasty, which means 'follow the way of Confucius and Mencius and educate the people of Li'.
Here, the head rests on Yanshan, the body is close to Luanshui, leaning on the Great Wall in the north, overlooking the Jingshi in the west, Jintang in the south, and Liaoshen in the east, which is a strategic place.
The military tents outside the city are continuous, and the dragon flag of the Qing Dynasty stands one by one.
In the city, Fan Wencheng and Tong Shengnian were standing on the city gate to talk.
Fan Wencheng was forty-nine years old at the time, he claimed to be a descendant of Fan Zhongyan, a famous minister of the Song Dynasty, whose ancestral home was Shenyang, his great-grandfather was the secretary of the military department of the Chu Dynasty, and his grandfather was the commander of the Shenyang Wei of the Chu Dynasty. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is 'deeply favored by the Chu Dynasty for many lifetimes'.
Fan Wencheng showed his intelligence when he was young, and at the age of eighteen he was selected in the Shenyang County School Examination, and after Nurhachi defeated Fushun, he and his brother went to ask for a meeting, and after surrendering, he was appreciated by Nurhachi.
At that time, Nurhachi told Zhubeile: "This famous minister is also a good one." ”
Fan Wencheng also lived up to his trust, and he was loyal and practiced in Houjin, and did not avoid hardships.
Since the establishment of the Huang Taiji Museum, he has gradually become an important minister who is deeply relied on by the Emperor Taiji, contributing to the ambition of the Emperor Taiji to win the Central Plains.
Now he is a scholar of the Inner Court of the Qing Dynasty and the head of the Hanchen......
~
Tong Shengnian was forty years old at the time, and now he is a solid mountain and a true person, and he is authorized to participate in politics with the right of the Qing Army, and he belongs to the Han Army with a yellow flag, and Fan Wencheng is the same as Huang Taiji's descendant.
Tong Shengnian's father is called Tong Yangzhen. Tong Yangzhen has a cousin named Tong Yangxing. Tong Yang, like Fan Wencheng, led the people to defect after Nurhachi took Fushun.
But the difference is that the ancestor of the Tong family is a Jurchen, a branch of the 'Tong Jia' clan. At the beginning of the founding of the Chu Dynasty, his ancestors took refuge in the Chu Dynasty, changed his surname to 'Tong', engaged in horse market trade, and became rich.
The Tong family has dredged up and down for several lifetimes, with hands and eyes to the sky, and has slowly become a big clan in Liaodong, dominating the Kaiyuan and Fushun areas. Compared with the Cai family, the Qin family, the ancestral family and other big families in Liaodong, it is not far behind.
But even if they made a windfall in the Chu Dynasty, the Tong family still wanted to betray Chu and reduce the gold, and Tong Yangxing secretly communicated with Nurhachi, but he did not expect to be seized by the Chu Dynasty and imprisoned.
In this case, he still deceived the officials of the Chu Dynasty, saying that he was willing to spy on Houjin intelligence for the Chu Dynasty, so the governor of Liaodong sent a report saying that "the chief Tong Yang was a spy", and since then the Tong family has been like a fish into the sea, like a bird returning to the forest, soaring into the sky.
Tong Yang was deeply favored by Nurhachi, and married the daughter of Nurhachi's third son, Abai, and became the queen of the money. He also set up the 'Wuzhen Hachao' artillery battalion for Huang Taiji, which was the capital of the Han army and was in charge of the Han people's military and civilian affairs. The Tong family was even known as the 'Tong Half Dynasty' in the Qing Dynasty......
Now that Tong Yang is dead, the most outstanding child of the next generation of the Tong family is Tong Shengnian.
Tong Shengnian is a Jurchen, proficient in Sinology, and his family is huge. Normally, his future will not be bad.
But now, it's time for a change of scenery.
He planned to inquire about some more news from Fan Wencheng......
(Note: Tong Shengnian is Tong Turai, and in order to distinguish the Turai who died earlier, his real name was used.) In history, his daughter entered the palace as a concubine of Shunzhi, was Kangxi's biological mother, and became the queen mother. His two granddaughters married Kangxi, a queen and a concubine. )

At this time, looking down from the city pass, there were no people in Zunhua City, only groups of Qing troops patrolling, and the air carried the smell of blood and burning.
"Lord Zhang Jing's trip persuaded five cities to surrender, as well as Chu Shen generals and guerrillas, which is really a remarkable achievement." Tong Shengnian said, "No wonder Your Majesty praised your lordship for 'Fan Gong's strategy, which can defeat millions of male soldiers'." ”
"When I came back today, the old man didn't see His Majesty." Fan Wencheng stroked his long beard, with worry in his eyes, "I was blocked by Prince Rui." ”
At the mention of Dolgon, Tong Shengnian narrowed his eyes.
He knew that Dolgon's relationship with Fan Wencheng was not good.
A few years ago, Huang Taiji suppressed Dolgon and Hauge together, and it was Fan Wencheng who gave them the blame. When Dolgon went to explain the political affairs, Huang Taiji ordered Fan Wencheng to expel him.
Later, Duoduo occupied Fan Wencheng's wife for three full months.
In doing so, Dodor was angry with his brother Dorgon; Second, because Huang Taiji let their biological mother Abahai be martyred, he had to nauseate Huang Taiji from time to time.
In addition, Duoduo's approach was also in line with the regulations of the Qing Dynasty.
Duoduo is the owner of the Zhengbai Banner, and Fan Wencheng is still the banner of the Zhengbai Banner even if he is a member of the first rank. In the Qing Dynasty, it was reasonable for the banner owner to seize the flag man's wife.
Even if Huang Taiji was furious afterwards, he fined Duoduo 10,000 taels of silver and took fifteen Niu Lu from him. But, after all, it happened......
Thinking of this, Tong Shengnian turned his head and quietly glanced at Fan Wencheng. Xindao This scholar can still do his best for the Qing Dynasty after suffering such humiliation, which is really 'loyal'.
But he said: "The three brothers of Prince Rui are too domineering. ”
- If Dorgon succeeds to the throne, you won't have a good time, how are you going to bet next?
Fan Wencheng was still stroking his long beard, with some thought in his eyes.
"The old man heard about it on the road...... Your Majesty slaughtered Yongping Mansion? ”
"It's not just Yongping Mansion." Tong Shengnian said: "After the news of Shengjing came back, he ordered the slaughter of five county seats. ”
Fan Wencheng's face changed, and he muttered: "If Your Majesty wants to enter the Central Plains, you must be kind to the people. Now that the hearts of the people have not yet been settled, it has aroused the hatred of the people of the Central Plains, how is it good? ! ”
Tong Shengnian smiled.
"Lord Zhang Jing is just talking about it on weekdays, and I will talk about this? The way of the people's heart, grace and power. The Chu army dug up the mausoleum of Taizu and burned the palace of Shengjing. If you don't use thunderous means, all the people in the world will be easy to bully when I am still in the Qing Dynasty. As for hatred? Aren't they hateful enough? And how? Those captive coatings, aren't they close to their ears? ”
Seeing that Fan Wencheng's face was hesitant, Tong Shengnian pointed in the direction of Chujing in the west, and said: "Back then, Meng Yuan attacked the central capital of the Jin Kingdom, slaughtered for more than a whole month, and destroyed the entire city; attacked Western Xia, slaughtered Suzhou, and only 100 people survived in the city; attacked Xingqing and slaughtered the entire Dangxiang clan; After the attack on Sichuan, the slaughter of Shu did not have one in a hundred, but not one in a hundred, and only one in Chengdu was "1.4 million bones in the city, and those outside the city were not counted"; after the destruction of the Song Dynasty, Hangzhou, Changzhou, and Pingjiang were ...... How many cities have been razed to the ground, slaughtering the heavens and the earth to change color; What kind of slaughter is the extermination of the Han people surnamed Zhang, Wang, Liu, Li, and Zhao in the world? ”
"Do these affect Meng Yuanding in the world? I've only slaughtered a few small cities in the Qing Dynasty now, so do you really think it's a big deal? Does the Chu Dynasty have the strength to resist all of us? ”
Fan Wencheng shook his head with a wry smile and sighed, "But Your Majesty's reputation will be ruined." ”
Tong Shengnian said: "If Your Majesty has not reacted to such a great humiliation, then the reputation of the first generation will be ruined." We don't slaughter, and those Chu people who think they are iron-clad still refuse to surrender. We have slaughtered, but those who are willing to live are still willing to surrender. And even they have a better excuse, 'I came down to save the people,' and that's great. ”
Fan Wencheng smiled bitterly again.
In fact, that's not what he cared about. Instead, the Qing Dynasty has begun to deviate from its own plan with the illness of Huang Taiji......
This is a sign of a loss of power.
