Chapter 159: Seeking the Skin of the Tiger

Dai Shan's speech silenced the audience, and Dolgon felt that Dai Shan had gone crazy, and that there was no other way out for the Great Qing Kingdom except to retreat to the pass, but he soon found that many people in the venue felt that Dai Shan's words were very reasonable.

Although it has been less than three years since the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the wind and snow in the past two years have completely changed these Eight Banners warriors who once only knew how to ride and shoot, and in the face of a series of failures, even the bravest Eight Banners warriors feel that defeat is imminent, and the root cause of all failures is in Dolgon, the actual regent who is in power, so everyone has lost trust in Dolgon.

Since Dolgon can't solve the problem, then naturally he has to change to a more suitable person to solve the problem, and he Dolgon is not the emperor of the Great Qing Dynasty!

Even if he is the emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom, even if it is Nurhachi and Huang Taiji, if he is defeated again and again, everyone's tolerance has a limit!

Dolgon immediately realized that the situation was not good, although he admitted that it was indeed his responsibility for the failure of the southern expedition of Duoduo and Hauge, but half of the responsibility for the second southern expedition was on Azig to hold his troops, and the destruction of the Azig army was completely self-defeating, and had nothing to do with him Dolgon.

But the Manchurian nobles present no longer trust Dorgon, so he can only reason with the facts: "In this situation, the Qing Dynasty still wants to negotiate peace with the Jinhua thieves, which is simply seeking the skin of the tiger, and it does not have any feasibility at all, don't forget that this Northern Expedition was suddenly launched by the Jinhua thieves in the name of peace!" ”

Although everyone admits that Dolgon has a point, but everyone is nostalgic for the luxurious life in the Guannai and trusts Dolgon, who is in power, so he is naturally ready to change to a more suitable candidate, so Nikan, who has just been promoted to the king of the county, said: "The current attitude of the Southern Dynasty is obvious, the talks between the Qing Kingdom and the Ming Kingdom will definitely fail, but the regents will definitely fail to talk to them, and they want us to change our candidates!" ”

Dolgon felt powerless, originally this kind of request should have been put forward by the Great Qing State to the Ming State, but now the situation has reversed, and these Manchurian nobles, including the Great Belle Daishan, have taken advantage of the Ming Dynasty to respect themselves and directly interfere with the top-level design of the Great Qing State, but Dolgon has no ability to resist.

Now Dolgon fully understands Emperor Hongguang's original feelings, but no matter how much he struggles, he can't fight against the entire Great Qing Kingdom, although the Great Belle Daishan has retreated to the second line and is no longer a director, but now he still gave an order: "Prince Rui will do his best for the country, and then he can have a good rest!" ”

Dolgon knew that he was powerless, so he could only make a final dying struggle: "Since I am not the regent, then who will govern?" Could it be that Big Baylor wants to go out of the mountain in person? ”

When the Qing Dynasty's second southern expedition failed, there were calls for substitutions in the court, and the reason why Dolgon was able to escape this catastrophe without danger was naturally because the court could not find an existence comparable to Dolgon for the time being, Hauge may be a good choice, but the record of repeated escapes made him directly out, and although Azig's voice was high, he led the troops outside.

And the current situation is more favorable to Dolgon, after all, Azig has died in Henan, if he retreats to the Great Qing Kingdom, he will not be able to find a suitable ruler, but Dai Shan laughed: "Since the Ming Kingdom has the queen supervising the country, then the Great Qing Kingdom is governed by the queen mother!" ”

Dolgon felt that Dai Shan, these people were simply crazy, the so-called Empress Jian Guo of the Ming Kingdom was just a tool for the usurpation of the Chengtian Emperor Liu Yongxi, and the situation of the Great Qing Kingdom was completely different from that of the Ming Kingdom, and no matter how capable the woman she married, she could not take responsibility at a critical time to turn the tide, she was not a descendant of Aixin Jueluo after all.

This is completely a conspiracy between Daishan and the great nobles such as Duoduo, Hauge, and Nikan, who just want to take this opportunity to manipulate the government without bearing any consequences, so Dolgon became furious: "Nonsense, this is simply nonsense, you are killing yourself!" ”

It's just that Nikan, the king of the county over there, couldn't wait to urge: "Prince Rui, don't talk nonsense anymore, if there is anything to explain, we can send you on your way!" ”

Hit the road?

Dolgon's whole person was frightened and his legs weakened all of a sudden, he originally thought that Daishan, Nikan, Duoduo, and Hauge just wanted to drive him down, but he didn't expect that these people actually wanted to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots directly, so he shouted loudly: "I don't accept it, I'm really not convinced, the reason why the Great Qing Kingdom has fallen to this point today is completely because King Yu Duoduo and King Su Haoge have been defeated repeatedly and even fled without a fight, their responsibility is a hundred times or even a thousand times greater than mine, why can they still be alive, but I want to be killed by you!" I'm not convinced! ”

It's just that since these Manchurian nobles, including Dai Shan, dared to launch a coup d'Γ©tat to overthrow Dolgon, they were not prepared to leave a way for Dolgon to live, after all, with Dolgon's qualifications and prestige, as long as he survived, there would be endless troubles, so Nikan over there had already patted Dolgon's shoulder and said: "Prince Rui, so far, try to understand it!" ”

Hearing Nikan say this, Dolgon's whole body was weak, and his whole body softened: "Is there no other way?" Can you give a decent way to die? ”

When the news of the coup d'Γ©tat in Beijing and Dolgon's death reached Luoyang, Liu Yongxi also happened to get the news that the Ming army had conquered Guilin, and according to the battle report of Yuan Zongdi, the governor of Guangxi, when the king of Tang and the king of Jingjiang killed each other when they conquered Guilin, Yuan Zongdi and the Ming army could not rescue them, so they could only ask Liu Yongxi for their guilt.

It's just that anyone with a discerning eye knows what the concept of "can't be rescued" is, not to mention that the King of Tang and the King of Jingjiang died together inexplicably, and everyone knows that this is Yuan Zongdi's personal action.

At this time, everyone understood why Liu Yongxi let the old department of the loyal battalion go south to Liangguang, and although it was possible that the generals who were born in the official army would be more vicious, it was also possible to take into account the feelings of the old lord and hand over the king of Tang and Jingjiang to the imperial court for disposal, so that the imperial court would carry a big burden.

Only Yuan Zongdi and Tian Jianxiu, who were born in the loyal battalion, would not hesitate to help Liu Yongxi solve all the troubles in the embryonic state, and the Yue Ming army's capture of Guangxi and Guizhou provinces represented the re-establishment of the ruling order in the entire south by the Chengtian Dynasty, so Liu Yongxi naturally had a lot of feelings.

It's just that he hasn't finished telling Empress Gao and the concubines about his feelings, and several pieces of information from different channels have confirmed the news of the coup d'Γ©tat in Beijing and Dolgon's death, which made Liu Yongxi sigh a lot: "It's a pity for Dolgon, I've always been worried so I had to lead the army to fight in person, but I heard that Dolgon died, and I can finally sleep well!" ”

Liu Yongxi's words were a bit exaggerated, so Empress Gao immediately peeled a pear and handed it over: "The concubine knows that Your Majesty has slept well these days, but since Dolgon is dead, the Qing Kingdom will not be able to make any waves!" ”

Although the Qing Kingdom has countless famous generals, Nurhachi, Huang Taiji and Dolgon are the overlords of the real meaning, such as Daishan, Duoduo, Azig, Haug and the like can only be regarded as generals, at most they are handsome.

Because of this, after this coup d'Γ©tat, the Qing Dynasty decided not to have a regent, but to be ruled by the empress dowager, in fact, they could not find a second Dolgon, so they could only use a foolish way to fool the situation first.

But Liu Yongxi would not let them fool the situation over: "What the queen said is extremely true, the entry into the southern expedition is the credit of Dolgon, if there is no Dolgon, I am afraid that the Qing Kingdom is still in Shenyang, I originally thought that Daishan and Duoduo would have to leave a life for Dolgon, and there are only examples of imprisonment to death in the history of the Qing Dynasty!" ”

Whether it is Shulhaqi or Zhenying and Amin, after the fall, they were all imprisoned for a long time, although Zhenying was finally executed by Nurhachi, but it was also after being imprisoned for more than two years, even Liu Yongxi couldn't understand why these Manchurian nobles couldn't wait to execute Dolgon.

If they were to make peace with the Celestial Empire, wouldn't it be a good choice to keep Dorgon?

And over there, Empress Gao figured out something: "I estimate that the Qing Kingdom wants to use Dolgon's head as a sincerity to start peace negotiations, but this is simply a joke!" ”

She has followed Li Zicheng for many years, and naturally she has seen this extremely absurd vote, and the imperial concubine Chen also said: "The reason why the monarchs and ministers of the Qing Kingdom can't wait to execute Dolgon is naturally because there is no way to pin all their hopes on peace, hoping that Your Majesty will not raise tigers and miss the God-given opportunity!" ”

Although the imperial concubine Chen was quite favored in front of Liu Yongxi, this passage still made Liu Yongxi look at her with admiration: "Concubine Ai's words are very true, I also think that since the Qing Kingdom has brought about its own destruction, it is not too late to take advantage of the victory to pursue and fight under the city of Beijing!" ”

The reigning queens and concubines all smiled when they heard this, although they mustered up the courage to follow the army, but they also hoped that this Northern Expedition would go as smoothly as possible, and Bai Guifei asked herself: "Your Majesty means that there will be no waves before entering Beijing?" ”

Liu Yongxi shook his head and said: "I prefer that the Northern Expedition can have a few big battles, if Jianyu retreats to Beijing or escapes from the customs, it is not a good thing for the country!" ”

When Chen Guifei heard Liu Yongxi say this, she gave a suggestion: "Then Your Majesty can repair a letter to the Great Qing Kingdom, and let the Great Qing Kingdom have a reassurance first!" ”

Liu Yongxi laughed: "No matter what I write in the letter, the soldiers of the Northern Expedition will march all the way, and the Great Qing Kingdom can only hate me to the core, how can it be that they can sit and wait for death with a letter!" ”

Chen Guifei was born noble, so she knew how to help Liu Yongxi solve the problem: "There may be problems with someone else, but as long as Your Majesty's letter shows enough sincerity, it will naturally make the Qing court in Beijing calmly wait for Your Majesty to deal with it!" ”

For Liu Yongxi, no matter how he writes this letter, it will not affect the overall situation, so he is particularly curious about Chen Guifei's suggestion: "Aifei, how do you think I should show enough sincerity in the letter?" ”
