When Dorgon asked such a question, Fan Wencheng was full of insight in his heart and fully understood his true thoughts.

That is, the puppet emperor selected from the heirs of Huang Taiji, first, must be young and do not understand the court and politics, so that he can be completely controlled by Dorgon for a long time, and there is no need to consider changing people halfway. The second is to be trusted by Dolgon, not have a special sense of closeness to Hauge, and it is best to favor Dolgon, so that Dolgon can use it at ease, so that for a long time, he will not worry about turning elbows and armpits.

Add these conditions together, and the puppet that Dorgon wants to choose is actually ready to be revealed.

The three of them all knew that there was no other suitable candidate except for Fulin, the son of Concubine Zhuang of Yongfu Palace.

Here, we can give you a brief introduction to the historical facts of the canonical history, when Dorgon and Hauge competed and finally chose Fulin as emperor.

After Huang Taiji's death, there were still five concubines in the harem, and their status was much higher than that of other concubines. Of course, among them, the queen Zhezhe has the highest status, so the heir to the throne must be selected from these five concubines.

After Huang Taiji's violent death, Dolgon and Hauge competed for the throne, and the two were deadlocked, and finally listened to the opinions of Sony, Aobai and others, and chose Huang Taiji's descendants as emperors, and Dolgon and Hauge were the regents and auxiliaries.

Next, Huang Taiji and Haoge began to select the successor emperor from the rest of Huang Taiji's heirs.

Of course, among the five concubines of Huang Taiji, there are 3 concubines, in addition to Hao, there are mainly two people, Fulin and Bogol, who are the best candidates for the throne.

Between Fulin and Bogol, why did Dolgon choose Fulin and the author's opinion, it was also forced by the situation at that time that Dolgon chose Fulin as the best choice.

Let's first look at the ages of Fulin and Bogol, Bogol was born on December 20 of the 6th year of Chongde, and in September of the 8th year of Chongde when Taiji died, he was 1 year and 9 months old.

Looking at Fu Lin again, he was born on the 30th day of the first month of the third year of Chongde, and was 6 and a half years old when Huang Taiji died, so Fu Lin was older, and compared with Bogol, the time of pro-government in the future was nearly four years earlier.

In this way, it seems that Fulin is older and has a competitive disadvantage, but this is not particularly important to Dorgon.

The secret of Fu Lin's final victory lies in his mother, Bu Mu Butai, the concubine of Yongfu Palace.

According to the requirements of the Manchu royal family, at that time, children with Mongolian blood were allowed to inherit the throne, which met the requirements of the Manchu and Mongolian unions.

Because, Bogol's mother, Yijing's concubine Abahai Borzigit, she is a member of the Han Department, and it took Tiancong 9 years to return to obedience, and after 8 years, it is really hard to say whether the Han Department has completely surrendered to the Qing Dynasty.

But Fulin's mother is a Horqin native, and she has been in contact with each other since the Nine Coalition Army attacked Jianzhou, and it has been about 28 years since the return to Dajin, which is considered a loyal ally of the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, in terms of loyalty, Horqin is much more at ease than Chahar, and how many marriages between Horqin and the Qing Dynasty, and how many marriages between Chahar and the Qing Dynasty, are even more worlds apart.

Another important point is that Bogol's mother Borzigit clan, when he returned to the Qing Dynasty, there was a son of Lin Dan Khan in his belly, and when he was in Chongde for 8 years, he was already 8 years old, if Bogol became the emperor, his brother's power would never be small, so that it was equivalent to having an elder brother who wanted to share power with Dolgon in advance, which was absolutely impossible for Dolgon to accept.

In addition, as the descendants of Lin Dan Khan, their loyalty to the Qing court is really doubtful and should be greatly discounted. In the Kangxi Dynasty, the descendants of Lin Dan Khan rebelled in Western Mongolia, and this behavior foresaw their true attitude towards the Qing Dynasty, which was by no means grateful and obedient, on the contrary, it should be full of humiliation and hatred.

These various questions, not only of Dorgon and Hauge, but of all ministers and princes, had to be considered in the selection of Fulin and Bogol as emperors, and they were completely careless.

After all, in terms of imperial succession, political stability is the key point, and it is also the most important point.

Of course, there is another point, which is not explicitly stated in the official history, but it is talked about in the wild history, that is, Fulin's mother Bumu Butai, and Dolgon have a leg in private, and the two hooked up even more hotly after the death of Huang Taiji.

Therefore, in order to support his lover, and because of this lover relationship, Dolgon trusted Bumu Butai even more, and after repeated weighing and weighing, he finally made up his mind to support his lover's child to ascend to the throne.

Therefore, Dolgon's blessing not only satisfies his own selfishness, but also is the best balance between the interests of all parties.

These historical realities are actually the same for Dolgon today. Therefore, when Fan Wencheng stepped forward and whispered Fulin's name to Dolgon, a faint smile appeared on Dolgon's face.

As for the candidate of Fulin, Dorgon is quite satisfied. Fulin is now six years old, and when he reaches the age of sixteen, Dolgon has nearly ten years of manipulation time, in addition, Fulin's mother Bumu Butai is also his old lover, if he supports Fulin to take the position, I believe that this woman will also fully support him.

Of course, the only thing that can be regretted is that now Fulin and Bumu Butai are both in Shengjing City, under the control of Haoge, and it is a deep regret that he must not let himself have some collusion with them first.

Alas, it's a pity, if it weren't for the fact that he wanted to seize power and become emperor, he would never have thought of using such a puppet emperor. Otherwise, if I could have prepared early and sent someone to take them from Shengjing to Liaoyang, Tokyo as soon as possible, now that I think about it, I didn't think about it that day, and it would have been a mistake.

It's just that now that they are planning to use them, these old relationships can still be used at any time, after all, in the face of huge practical interests, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome.

"Bachelor Fan is right, Fu Lin is the emperor, although he is young, but his bearing is extraordinary, he has the image of an emperor, this candidate is also recognized by this king." Dorgon stroked his beard and made the final touch.

Next, Dolgon, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan and I discussed in detail how to negotiate with Hauge in this way, how to protect their best interests in the negotiation, and this court meeting finally dispersed.

Originally, Dolgon planned to let Fan Wencheng become the main envoy, and Ning Wan and me were the deputy envoys, and they went to Shengjing to negotiate with Haoge, but because Fan Wencheng was shot in the calf by Haoge's subordinate Ao Bai when he was on the envoy last time, and now the injury is not good, so in order to keep this self-relied advisor from accidents, Dolgon finally decided to send Ning Wan and me alone to Shengjing.

In doing so, Dorgon had other considerations in mind. That is, this mission is only a preliminary test, after all, it is really difficult to say what the situation of the talks will be at this meeting. Therefore, it is enough to send Ning Wan and me alone.

Three days later, Ning Wanme, who had become the chief envoy of the peace talks, was ordered by Dolgon to take a group of entourage, braved the wind and snow, trekked hard, and finally came to the outside of Shengjing City.

Seeing the snow-covered capital of the Qing Dynasty in front of me, Ning Wanme, who looked haggard in the wind and snow, and a group of subordinates who had suffered from the trip, were all full of emotion.

Since leaving Shengjing and defecting to Dolgon, Ning Wan and these entourages have not returned to Shengjing for more than half a year.

What's more, now that they have come here, they are already enemies, and such a huge change in identity does not make people sigh.

Compared with these entourage, the one who felt the most in my heart was Shi Ning Wan of Bunkan University.

He suddenly remembered that a few months ago, Fan Wencheng, who was ordered by Dolgon, came to Shengjing City to persuade him to surrender, but he didn't expect that Haoge and Tang Jun had already hooked up together, not only did he refuse to listen to his bitter persuasion to surrender, but instead he went out of the city to capture and kill Fan Wencheng and the entourage.

Thinking about Fan Wencheng, he can be regarded as a scholar at all, but he returned in such a mess that he almost lost his life. The arrow that shot deep into the calf was hideous and terrifying, and it was ruthless enough, so that Ning Wan, who came to visit, was also shocked.

Fortunately, Fan Wencheng was so desperate that he didn't hurt the main tendons and veins, so he was able to save this leg, and after nearly three months of recovery, he was finally able to walk normally, which was a fluke.

And now, it's his turn to come and talk to Hauge. In the past six months, I finally came to the outside of this Shengjing City again, but I don't know what kind of fate I am facing now.

However, with the lesson of Fan Wencheng who was almost killed last time, Ning Wan and I are much more cautious this time. He stared at the Shengjing City Pool in the distance for a long time before he let out a low shout, and an attendant came out in response.

After I whispered a few words to him, the attendant nodded, and then rode forward, stepping on the thick snow, and galloped towards Shengjing City in the distance.

The attendant, with a bow on his back and a headless arrow wrapped in a thick cloth in his hand, rode all the way to about thirty paces away from the south gate of Shengjing, and did not dare to go forward.

He took his bow from his back, drew it with a squeak, and shot it at the city.

The long arrows, wrapped in thick cloth, cut a long arc in the light snowy sky, dressed in the heavily guarded south gate, and fell accurately into the city.

It was only at this time that the Qing army of the Haoge Department defending the city reacted, and the alarm suddenly sounded, and at the same time, some soldiers hurried down the city to pick up the letter that was being inserted diagonally in the snow.

Seeing that the alarm in the city was loud, the entourage did not dare to stop for a moment, and immediately galloped back and fled, knocking the horse's belly all the way, and hurriedly fled to Ning Wan's side, and then dismounted and knelt.

"Are you sure you shot the letter into the city?"

Ning Wan stared at the entourage who was kneeling on the snow, still panting, and asked uneasily.

"Scholar, this arrow book has indeed been shot into the city, and it is absolutely correct." The attendant said hurriedly.

Ning Wan nodded slightly, and heard the faint sound of the siren again, but a faint smile appeared on his face.

Hmph, as long as this letter is delivered to the city, the scholar is sure that Hauge will be moved by the contents of the letter.

When Ning Wan was secretly proud, the Qing army that had quickly caught up from the city wall had already picked up the arrow book, did not dare to stop for a while, and trotted all the way to Prince Su's mansion.

Unexpectedly, even when he was still halfway through, from the palace of Prince Su, a large group of people and horses with neat armor rushed to the south gate.

The one who personally rushed to the front to lead was Prince Su Haoge.

It turned out that after hearing the alarm, Haoge, who had been drinking and having fun with his subordinates in the palace, was taken aback, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately lit his troops and horses, and hurried to the south gate of the police.

The soldiers who reported the news, seeing that Prince Su himself led the troops, hurriedly gave way to the avenue, held the arrow book in his hand, and knelt aside.

"Prince Su, there was a messenger outside the south gate, and he shot an arrow book, and the slave did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent it to Prince Su, and he never wanted to see the prince here, so he hereby presents it."

Hauge, with a gloomy face, snorted, reined in the horse's hooves and made a fetched gesture.

Immediately, one of his men jumped off his horse, took the arrow book from the kneeling soldier's hand, and respectfully handed it to Hauge.

Hauge took the book of arrows, but without opening it, he frowned first, and asked the kneeling soldier, "How did you get their book of arrows?" ”

"Prince Yusu, we are patrolling the city, suddenly a sentry rode a horse over, while we are not yet prepared, secretly shot this arrow book, and after we found out, this person has pulled out his horse and turned around, all the way away. I can't catch up, so I came to report to Prince Su first. ”

Hauge groaned, rolled his eyes, waved his hand, and motioned for them to step back. The soldiers immediately hurriedly waved their sleeves and retreated.

Hauge opened the thick cloth of the arrow book, and immediately saw a long list of Manchu texts come into view, and he unconsciously whispered it again, but his face was even more cloudy, and his two thick eyebrows were also wrinkled tighter.

Hmph, Dolgon, now that he thinks of making peace with this king, it seems that he has really tasted the pain given by the Tang Army. I just don't know how credible this sinister and cunning guy is in these words, and whether there is a trick hidden in them.

As soon as Hauge groaned, he immediately turned his horse's head and led his troops back to Prince Su's mansion, and at the same time, he ordered the guards to immediately order Sonny and Ao Bai to enter the mansion for an urgent interview.

As soon as Hauge returned home, Sonny and Aobai were already in a hurry, and Hauge immediately met the two in the living room.

As soon as the two of them sat down, Hauge showed them the book in his hand. After the two of them finished reading it, Sonny looked pensive, but Ao Bai sneered.

Before Hauge could ask, Ao Bai jumped up first, and he shouted, "Grandma! Now that our army and the Tang army have joined forces, it is the time of successive battles, how can we fall into our prestige and go to peace talks with Dorgon! From my point of view, if Prince Su ordered me to lead my troops out of the city, go and kill all the thieves outside the city, and then send their heads back to Tokyo! ”
