Emperor Shunzhi was about to collapse, the war in the south continued, and the Ming army, which was already a dead end, suddenly broke out, faintly meaning to compete with the Qing Dynasty for the world.

As for the north, it doesn't stop.

Taking advantage of the emptiness of Liaodong's troops, the Rakshasa Kingdom sent troops across the border to set fire to and loot everywhere.

Some of the banner men outside the customs were taken away as slaves and did the hardest work.

Although it is impossible for the population of the Rakshasa Kingdom to inflict devastating damage on Liaodong, this kind of attack is very annoying.

And it has great damage to the face of the Qing Dynasty.

After all, Liaodong is the birthplace of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and some old people are reluctant to enter the customs and stay in Liaodong.

Their captivity seems to be their own problem, but in fact, they are slapping Emperor Shunzhi in the face.

Even these widows can't protect them, and the emperor of Shunzhi is too aggrieved!

But now the imperial court really can't spare its hands to deal with the Rakshasa Kingdom.

The Manchus claimed to have a million troops, but most of them were stationed in local areas. Important towns were also built with full cities, and the Eight Banners were stationed.

Ao Bai brought a group of elites to the south before, but now except for the banner soldiers of the 20,000 or 30,000 Gongwei Beijing Division, there is really nothing to take a shot.

Emperor Shunzhi now gave birth to a helplessness that a good woman could not cook without rice.

If it was in the era of the Eight Kings, the major Baylors could still talk and chatter, but now Emperor Shunzhi can only stare at the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs.

Now Emperor Shunzhi somewhat understands what Chongzhen said that I am not the king of the dead country, and the ministers are all the ministers of the dead country.

These civil and military officials are full of good policies for governing the country, but in fact, they are just talking back and forth, and they really want to sift through them, and none of them can be used.

In desperation, Emperor Shunzhi summoned Fan Wencheng.

He pinned all his hopes on this first advisor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Fan Wencheng was already very old, and he wanted to beg for a rest, but Emperor Shunzhi said that he didn't agree to anything.

After all, there are only a few people who can give him advice, if Fan Wencheng retires, who will fill his gap?

Until a suitable replacement is found, Emperor Shunzhi said that he would not let Fan Wencheng go.

"Minister Fan Wencheng see my emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live."

Although Fan Wencheng was not an old dragon clock, he was no longer very stable in walking, and he used a lot of strength to barely fall to his knees.

"Mr. Fan, please get up. Didn't I say it, you don't have to bow when it's only me and Mr. Fan. ”

Emperor Shunzhi personally helped Fan Wencheng up and said in a harmonious voice: "Mr. Fan, sit down." ”

Fan Wencheng played a pivotal role in the Qing court as a patriarch of the Three Dynasties.

It is the opinion of Emperor Shunzhi who attaches great importance to Fan Wencheng.

"Your Majesty summoned the old minister, but you have something important to order?"

Emperor Shunzhi sighed and said, "I really don't know what to do, and I ask Mr. Fan to help me come up with ideas." ”

After a pause, Emperor Shunzhi continued: "I have just received a report that the Rakshasa Kingdom has invaded Liaodong. Now that the battle is raging in the south and the backyard is on fire in the north, how can this be good? ”

Fan Wencheng was stunned when he heard this.

Of course he had heard of it.

Such a barbarian country would dare to provoke the power of the Qing Dynasty?

"Your Majesty is worried that no one will go to quell the rebellion, right?"

Fan Wencheng is worthy of being a scheming man, and immediately understood what Emperor Shunzhi was worried about.

"Yes, yes."

"Actually, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry, the Rakshasa Kingdom is a group of savages, and they will naturally leave after they have looted enough."

Emperor Shunzhi glared at his round eyes and said, "I'm just looking at it like that? ”

"The emperor can pretend not to know about this."

"Is that really going to work? Won't the government and the opposition be discussing? ”

Emperor Shunzhi was still too thin-skinned and didn't understand Fan Wencheng's train of thought at all.

"Who's going to talk about it? Who dares to talk about it? ”

Fan Wencheng's eyes sharpened and said: "If there is a talker who cuts off his tongue, and then there is a talker who beheads the public." The old minister didn't believe that there were still people who dared to talk about it! ”

Shunzhi gasped when he heard this.

This Fan Wencheng is too ruthless.

"Is it really okay to do that?"

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you should be a dictator!"

Fan Wencheng squinted his eyes and said: "Anyone who raises doubts is not loyal and patriotic, what's the point of Your Majesty keeping them?" ”

After a pause, Fan Wencheng continued: "As for the Rakshasa Kingdom, the old minister still said the same thing. Their national strength is not an opponent at all compared to the Qing Dynasty. Your Majesty doesn't need to care about them at all, even if they go out of the country, they can't grab much. ”

Shunzhi sighed and said, "Now that's the only way." ”

"There is another thing that has been bothering me, although Wu Sangui has captured Yunnan now, he is like a prince and a king, and he disobeys the orders of the court, and listens to the seal and does not listen to the tune. I'm worried that the end will not be lost after a long time. ”

At the beginning, Shunzhi did promise Wu Sangui that he would give him Yunnan as a fief when he conquered Yunnan.

But Shunzhici and Wu Sangui are two concepts.

What I gave you is yours, I haven't given it to you yet, you can't grab it, right?

This Wu Sangui is really getting more and more unruly.

"Wu Sangui is indeed a problem."

Fan Wencheng said leisurely: "But Your Majesty can ignore it for the time being, and wait until the world is settled before cutting the domain." At that time, Wu Sangui was already in his old age, and His Majesty was in his prime, so it was clear which would win and which would lose. ”

I still have to endure it.

Shunzhi was a little disappointed when he heard this.

He thought that Fan Wencheng would give some surprising suggestions, but now it seems that he has thought too much.

Shunzhi is now young and high-spirited, so he naturally doesn't want to compromise.

But gradually, he realized that this country was not what he wanted.

The problems within the Eight Banners are easy to say, whether it is Manchu, Meng, Han and Eight Banners, they all serve Shunzhi as the Son of Heaven.

The difficulty lies in a warlord like Wu Sangui.

Now they can only coax them to contribute to Daqing, and wait until the dust settles before liquidation.

"The minister still has something to advise His Majesty."

"Mr. Fan, please speak."

"Isn't Your Majesty angry that Zheng Chenggong is making trouble in Jiangnan? It's better to kill his father Zheng Zhilong now, and then tell the world. This can hit Zheng Chenggong and make him collapse. ”

Shunzhi was puzzled and said, "Didn't Mr. Fan suggest that I imprison Zheng Zhilong?" To say that holding him in his hand is to hold a trump card. ”

"This time and that time."

Fan Wencheng explained carefully: "At the beginning, Fan Wencheng was imprisoned because he wanted to blackmail Zheng Chenggong, so that he would not dare to act rashly. But now that Zheng Chenggong has done such a thing, it can be seen that he doesn't take Zheng Zhilong to heart at all. At this time, His Majesty killed Zheng Zhilong, which could push Zheng Chenggong to the forefront and make the world spit that he was an unfilial person. ”

Emperor Shunzhi said in his heart, yes, why didn't he think of it.

Filial piety is more important than anything else, as long as Shunzhi kills Zheng Zhilong, people in the world will definitely think that Zheng Chenggong's actions are indirectly caused.

Then Zheng Chenggong was saddled with the name of unfilial piety.

Those anti-Qing forces who want to defect to him will probably have to think twice
