It was the yellow coat who returned to the palace who heard the rumors in the palace that before Huang Taiji died, he actually had a last word and designated the heir to the throne.

As soon as Ao Bai heard this, he immediately inquired in detail about the situation before Huang Taiji's death. Of course, this situation has actually been asked before, but I didn't pay attention to it at the time, and when I can check it at this time, I really have clues.

So, under the joint discussion of many princes of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Ao Bai said to Dai Shan and others; "Before the emperor died, he must know who will inherit the throne, which is the most important thing in the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, after the emperor woke up, he was designated and said the word Zhuangfei. The minions didn't care about it before, but now they realize that the meaning of the former emperor should be to let the prince born to Concubine Zhuang be my Qing Emperor! ”

When Hauge heard this, he immediately jumped up and shouted, "Blessing that little brat? Crazy? He came to be the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, how could it be! ”

Dai Shan had also inquired about Huang Taiji's situation before he died, but he didn't care about this at the time. He glanced at the angry Hauge, the disdainful Duoduo and his son Yueto, and then at the twinkling eyes of Dorgon and Azig, and then his heart moved, and then he said: "That's right, the emperor should have arranged it this way. The prince of Fulin is indeed young, but he is a malleable talent, before his pro-government, didn't the first emperor also set the kings to discuss politics? This has long been clear, and it is arranged this way! ”

During Huang Taiji's serious illness, he did make a decree, saying that all matters in the court and China should be discussed by the kings, and then reported to Huang Taiji for decision.

However, if the position of the emperor is really determined to be inherited by Fu Lin, the practice of succession between father and son is basically set, and other non-emperor Taiji descendants will not have a chance. Therefore, everyone present, except for Dai Shan, was actually unwilling.

When Ao Bai saw this, he immediately strode up to Azig.

When Azig saw it, he twisted his head, and he didn't want to pay attention. He didn't even need to ask, he knew what Ao Bai was trying to say.

However, Ao Bai didn't care, he just came to him and got very close, and when Azig wanted to be angry, he heard Ao Bai say in a low voice that only he could hear: "How did Prince Zheng die, do you need to say it?" ”

When Azig heard this, he suddenly felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his eyes widened, and he stared at Aobai, his face was still a little pale.

At this time, he naturally knew that Ao Bai must have known the truth of the matter, otherwise, it would be impossible to suddenly say this for no reason.

Indeed, Ao Bai is Huang Taiji's henchman, Chen Shaozong got the briefing from Lu Xiangsheng at the beginning, and after it was handed over to Geng Zhongming, it went to Huang Taiji, and Ao Bai also saw it.

It's just that I didn't expect that it could be used to threaten Azig now.

"What's going on?" As soon as Duoduo saw that something was wrong, he immediately asked.

Azig knew that if he still insisted and refused to support Fulin's succession, Ao Bai would definitely say it. Killing Ji'er Harang with his own hands was to let the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom release him back to kill Huang Taiji, no matter which point he had, it would be fatal to him.

Therefore, under the forced gaze of Aobai, Azig said with an unusually ugly face: "It's nothing, I want to pass, for the future of the Qing Dynasty, it is best for Prince Fulin to succeed to the throne, I agree!" ”

These people here, who don't know whom, Azig would say such a thing, it must have something to do with Aobai's whispering. But, no matter what, at least Azig has taken a stand.

When Dai Shan saw it, he immediately stared at another prince who had no military power, that is, Dolgon, and said: "You have always been valued by the emperor and praised you as a rare rational general of the Qing Dynasty, so even if you lost 30,000 Qing soldiers in the Battle of Tianjin, you did not blame you, and in the Battle of Tashan, you were completely annihilated, and even affected the situation of the Korean War, just like that, the former emperor only imprisoned you in Zongrenfu." When the situation in the Qing Dynasty is in danger now, I will let you out to tide over the national crisis together. With all these things, do you have to be worthy of the emperor's kindness? ”

The Emperor's Kindness? Hehe, when Huang Taiji suppressed it, if it weren't for Taoguang Yanghui, it is estimated that he would have been eliminated by him like Amin and Mang Gurtai. Dolgon thought to himself, but sneered. But there was one thing he couldn't deny. After Huang Taiji ascended the throne and became emperor, he was really good to him. Just what Dai Shan said, if he were replaced by someone else, it would definitely not be such treatment.

This matter, Dai Shan said it today, and then it will definitely be known to everyone. In this way, if he still does not agree with Fulin to be the emperor, then in the Qing Dynasty, the reputation is afraid to stink.

Thinking so, Dorgon couldn't help but sigh in his heart. I only think that I don't have military power at present, which is my shortcoming. But fortunately, Fulin is still young, even if he agrees to be the emperor, there will be many years before he is in power, and with his own intelligence, there should still be a chance.

Thinking so, after weighing the pros and cons, Dorgon glanced at Dodor, and then had to speak: "Since the emperor has a will, then do what the emperor wants!" ”

In this way, among these people present, Aobai, Daishan, Azig and Dolgon all supported Fulin's succession, and the remaining Haug, Duoduo and Yueto, the three of them had their own interests, and they could not unite together, and in the end, they had to compromise.

As a result, history with great inertia, in the end, it was Fulin who ascended the throne and became emperor. However, it was originally Dolgon who was the regent, but now, it is the kings who are all regents.

As a result, if Huang Taiji really has a spirit in the sky, I don't know if he will be angry! When he woke up, what he was most worried about was not the heir to the throne, but Hai Lanzhu's safety. When he said the word Concubine Zhuang, he actually wanted to kill Concubine Zhuang. Now it's good that this Concubine Zhuang has become the queen mother, and her son has become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty!

In fact, the reason for this result is not accidental.

Bumu Butai was a smart man, and he knew that Huang Taiji was going to kill her, so he struck first without a trace. After that, she was worried that what Huang Taiji said would be unfavorable to her, so she did everything possible to find out the details of Huang Taiji before she died, and according to the current situation, she found an opportunity from it, so she began to spread the words that Ao Bai heard in the palace. In the end, she got her wish!

At the same time, her confidant female officer died suddenly, and no one pursued her under her power. In the harem, in the end, Bumu Butai is respected, and Zhezhe has to stand aside.

Subsequently, Dolgon also began to show that he was a relatively powerful side among the captives, and immediately began to take the lead in how to deal with the Ming Kingdom according to the current situation. Others are really inferior to him in this regard.

"The Qing Dynasty forces must be replenished more. However, the Ming State was strong, and the Han people were no longer reliable. Dolgon spoke eloquently at the meeting of the Six Kings, "Therefore, my Qing Dynasty should once again conquer the Sauron Tribe, so as to replenish my Qing forces!" ”

The Sauron tribe was still in the north of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and according to the original history, it was not until February of the sixteenth year of Chongzhen that the third northern expedition to the Sauron tribe was made, but in this plane, at the suggestion of Dolgon, there was this matter in advance.

None of the others had an opinion on Dolgon's suggestion.

In fact, after Dai Shan's experience of the battle for the heir, his body became worse and worse than before, as if all the energy he had saved was consumed in that matter. Therefore, these six kings are basically absent, and they really can't be absent, so they doze off there.

Without Daishan in charge, Dolgon, with his ability and eloquence, bullied the rest of the people, such as Hauge, Azig and others, which was more than enough. Yue Tuo would occasionally fight with him. However, there is a generational gap between the two, and Dorgon has many Duoduo to help him, so although he does not have military power, he can take the initiative.

The matter of the northern expedition to Sauron was thus decided. He was even willing to personally lead the army north in this cold season, and let him do it.

For these things that happened in Liaodong, he did not follow the plot he expected, which made Emperor Chongzhen a little regretful. However, it is just a bit of a pity, but the threat is not to be talked about.

Don't say that Huang Taiji is dead, even if he is not dead, he will not be able to fight Jianyu day by day. What's more, now that among the six princes of Jianyu, Dolgon, Azig, and Daishan have all received the Grade A eavesdropping seeds, and they can grasp most of Jianyu's decisions in real time.

Thinking so, Emperor Chongzhen no longer thought about Liaodong affairs, and when he arrived in Beijing a year ago, it was time to have a good New Year.

This time, Emperor Chongzhen did not explain it in advance, otherwise, he would have taken more than 10,000 troops and crossed the sea to Liaodong, and there would definitely be a large group of people who would die.

But it's back, so there's no need to hide it. It was immediately announced that the slave chieftain Taiji was dead, and the deeds of Geng Zhongming and Chen Shaozong's mother were widely publicized. Regarding the matter of Geng Zhongming's spiritual position entering the Martyrs' Shrine, he personally explained it and held it ceremoniously. And the deeds of Chen Shaozong's mother, not only let Queen Zhou go to meet, reward, and give high honor, but also instructed the Department of Education to write a script for Chen Shaozong's mother and put it on the opera stage.

Suddenly, this New Year's Festival of the Ming Dynasty, the hottest thing is these three things: Emperor Chongzhen is angry with the slave chief Taiji; Geng Zhongming had a bright heart, but he abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, but was betrayed by his son and sacrificed his life for righteousness; Chen Shaozong's mother understands the righteousness and teaches her children well, and she is a model for the Ming Dynasty.

That's it, the fifteenth year of Chongzhen has passed, and the sixteenth year of Chongzhen has come.

At the beginning of the new year, in addition to sending a decree to Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou, informing them about the internal situation of Jianyu and infiltrating the hinterland of Liaodong, Emperor Chongzhen's main concern was to focus on internal affairs.

Since he returned to Beijing, the most important thing is naturally agriculture, that is, the issue of food. After flipping through the chapters, Emperor Chongzhen found a problem.

Even though he vigorously promoted sweet potatoes and other high-yield crops, and also built water conservancy and other measures, the grain problem was never alleviated. The reason, and the reason he finally came up with, turned out to be economic problems.

The agriculture of the Ming Dynasty is basically a combination of agriculture and mulberry. Especially on the Ming side, this situation is even more obvious.

For a long time, there has been a problem of mulberry fighting for rice fields in the Ming Dynasty, because it is more profitable to plant mulberry, cotton, silkworms, sheep and grain crops. Especially in recent years, when the imperial court vigorously ensured that there was no shortage of food, the people were more willing to plant cash crops.

According to estimates, the ratio of labor required to plant mulberry and silkworm and rice is about 100:5, this data has been estimated by Sun Quan, a native of Gui'an during the Wanli period, and it is about the same in the Chongzhen period now. That is to say, when the labor force of the Ming Dynasty developed cash crops, not only did not liberate it from the farmland, but more manpower went to the agricultural work.

The consequences of this are, first, that the original provinces with large grain outputs, such as the lake and the world, have long been a thing of the past; Even the Taihu Lake area has changed from transporting grain from other provinces to needing to be transported from other provinces. As a result, there is a shortage of arable land, labor, animal power, fertility, and meat.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at this conclusion and had a headache. In his imagination, it was to free the labor force from agriculture and engage in industry and commerce, and engage in other industries, so that the Ming Dynasty could embark on the road of industrialization. However, the result now is that it has backfired!

If this problem is solved by violent means, it is likely to turn into the notorious enclosure movement. In this regard, Emperor Chongzhen did not want to. In this case, it can only rely on economic means to adjust.

Based on this idea, Emperor Chongzhen began to check the situation of the Ming Dynasty's two capitals and thirteen provinces on loans to run state-owned enterprises. Not to mention, the state-owned enterprises in the south of the Yangtze River are also aiming at businesses such as silk and cotton silk.

In this regard, Emperor Chongzhen agreed, and encouraged the expansion of production, and improved production tools and other methods, so that silk and cotton silk and the like appeared in excess of demand imagination, if the value dropped, it would naturally reduce the enthusiasm of the people of the Ming Dynasty to take the initiative to engage in this regard.

Of course, this process is not achieved overnight, and it requires a long-term process.

In addition, after Emperor Chongzhen inspected the factory that Song Yingxing had been engaged in, he felt that the time was ripe, so he decided to display it, and then began to mass-produce this most basic and extensive thing nationwide.

On this day, Emperor Chongzhen specially convened a great court meeting for this purpose.

Although it was still February, the cold wind was blowing and it was cold. But the content of this court meeting has been slightly revealed by Emperor Chongzhen. Therefore, although the officials were frozen, they were all in high spirits, and they were all thinking, what is the emperor talking about, which is very profitable? How profitable is it? Useful? How useful is it?

Anyone, for such a thing, is definitely very curious and interested.

Therefore, when Emperor Chongzhen arrived and saw the salute, the first assistant Xue Guoguan asked their voices on behalf of the hundred officials.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he smiled slightly, but just waved his hand at Wang Chengen, the rotating eunuch beside him.
