Song Youliang made such a big move in Jinzhou, and Alida, who was stationed in Fuzhou, was already gearing up and eager to try. [Full text reading. It's just that the news reached Hetuala, but there was no reply, which made Alida suffocated. So he immediately went to Gaizhou and found Shuoto to discuss the attack on Jinzhou.

Shuo Tuo said disapprerovingly: "What about still fighting the Southern Barbarians, the Great Qing Kingdom is about to change the sky, don't you know yet?" ”

"You mean the emperor?" Aleda said in an inquiring tone

Shuotuo nodded and replied: "Hetuara is now the four of Marfa (grandfather), the twelfth uncle, the fourteenth uncle, and the eldest brother Haoge to deal with political affairs in the court, which shows that the emperor's dragon body is in danger. ”

Alida suddenly became excited, "If this is the case, Marfa (grandfather), the fourteenth uncle, and the eldest brother are the most powerful contenders for the throne." Could it be that our two red flags will really become two yellow flags? ”

Shuoto shook his head and said, "Marfa has long been old and decrepit, and he has no heart to compete for the throne. 8。 Coupled with the incident in the ninth year of Tiancong, Marfa completely lost any hope for the throne. ”

After the great victory of the conquest of the Chahar Mongols in the ninth year of Tiancong (1635 AD), the empress of Lin Dan Khan led her people to surrender to Houjin. As a result, it led to a storm of robbing wives of the Houjin princes and Baylors

At that time, Huang Taiji ordered Zhu Beile to choose a favorite person among the Chahar Mongolian noblewomen who came to join him, and Dai Shan took a fancy to the rich and beautiful Queen Mother Sutai. However, because the Empress Dowager Sutai was the wife and sister of Ji'er Harang, Huang Taiji had already promised Zi'er Harang and could not agree to do good, so he took a step back and let him marry the Empress Dowager. Dai Shan thought that the Empress Dowager was poor and married the rich Chahar Khan daughter Taisong Gege.

The matter should have come to an end, but Dai Shan refused to give up, relying on himself to be the brother of Huang Taiji, the big Baylor in the country, and then repeatedly proposed to marry the Empress Dowager Su Tai as his wife, Huang Taiji has not been allowed, and Dai Shan is angry. 3。 This dissatisfaction soon aroused the resentment that Dai Shan had buried in his heart for many years, and if he had resentment, he had to find an outlet, and the opportunity to vent his anger would come, almost at the same time.

When Zhubeile chose to marry a Chahar Mongol noblewoman, Hauge married Birch Fujin, which annoyed his mother-in-law, the Hada princess Mangguji.

Mang Guji is the daughter of Nurhachi and the Jifujin Fucha clan, and is the half-sister of Mang Gurtai, the half-sister of Derge, and the half-sister of Huang Taiji. married for the first time Hada Bel Lvur Gudai, so she is called Princess Hada; At the end of the Mandate of Heaven, his husband died, and he married the Mongolian Ao Han Department of Zonomu Duling. Mang Guji had two daughters with her ex-husband, one married Yue Tuo and the other married Haoge. As soon as she heard that Haorge had married another Mongolian noblewoman, she said angrily, "My daughter is still here, why did Hauge marry him again?" She has always had a bad relationship with Huang Taiji, and at this time she was even more angry with him, full of resentment, and without Huang Taiji's consent, she went home from Yangshimuhe, which welcomed the triumphant army. 8。 This action is a clear demonstration of grievances and demonstrations to Huang Taiji. It seems that she, Mang Gurtai, and Derge have inherited a fierce personality from their mother, and in the sinister political struggle, they will only end up in tragedy.

Dai Shan treats Princess Hada well, and has always been in step with Huang Taiji, and has not been in harmony for a long time. But at this time, when Mang Guji passed by the front of the Daishan camp on the way home, Daishan was unusual, and together with his great fortune, he welcomed Mang Guji into the big tent, set up a big banquet to entertain him, and gave him a famous horse and wealth - naturally because of the same disease.

Upon learning of this, Huang Taiji was very angry, not only sent someone to ask Dai Shan's intentions, but also in anger, he left all Baylor and returned to Shengjing alone, and after entering the palace, he closed the palace door, and did not allow the ministers of Baylor to enter the court. This act was like a child's anger, but it frightened the ministers of the Beyles, and they all knelt at the palace gate, and pleaded with the Khan to come to the court, and immediately put the matter on file. 3。

Huang Taiji's coercion succeeded. The next day, he summoned the ministers of the Inner Sanctum, and in a loud and lengthy reprimand of the six sins of Daizen, the central meaning of which was to rebuke the centrifugal tendencies of Daizen. The ministers of Zhubeile proposed to remove the name of Daishan Dabeile, cut off the Lord of Shuobeile, take ten oxen and record his subordinates, and fine him ten thousand taels of silver. Mang Guji removed the title of princess, seized the Manchurian cattle to which she belonged and fined her.

Seeing that Dai Shan pleaded guilty, Huang Taiji was relieved of Dai Shan Belle Jue and returned to Shi Niu Lu's subordinates. Mang Guji was also exempted from punishment, except that she was forbidden to associate with her relatives.

For the sake of the stability of the country at that time, Huang Taiji's move was also necessary. If Daishan and Mang Guji are united, it will inevitably lead to the possibility of the two red flags and the three banners of the Zhenglan Banner and the possibility of the confrontation of Khan's power, because in the sixth year of Tiancong (1632 AD), after the death of Mang Gurtai, the owner of the Zhenglan Banner, his younger brother Dege succeeded as the banner master. 4。 Derge was obviously sympathetic to his own sister Mangguji. Because he was also fined for favoring the princess in this incident. And he also seems to be a violent man, he was punished in September, and on the second night of the tenth month, he also died violently. Like Mang Gurtai at the time of his death, the death of the Doga was treated with dignity by the Khan's personal funeral. When Mang Gurtai died, Huang Taiji wept bitterly in front of the spirit, and took off his hat and tassels, wore mourning clothes, lived in the side hall, and personally sent the spirit to the dormitory before returning to the palace; Before the spirit of Derge, Huang Taiji cried even more, and only left after the third watch, did not return to the palace and set up a tent in front of the Phoenix Tower, and withdrew the food for three days to show mourning. Under the repeated persuasion of the ministers of Zhubele, the Khan returned to the palace.

Enwei is used together, Huang Taiji has been used very skillfully and very smartly, and it seems that he can stop. However, in December of this year, Huang Taiji announced a major rebellion case to Zhubeile: Mang Guji, Mang Gurtai, Derge and Zonomu Duling, Leng Seng Ji, etc., had sworn to the Buddha to take the throne. 6。 Due to the separate accusations of Zonom Duling and Leng Seng Ji, it was confirmed, and the physical evidence of the rebellion was found, that is, the sixteen wooden plate seals hidden by Mang Gurtai, which were written as "the seal of the emperor of the Jin Kingdom"!

When all the beylors heard this, they were all angry, and the crime was serious, and the punishment was very severe. Mang Guji and his half-brother Ang Alla and Mang Gurtai's son Epilun were all killed, and the other people who participated in the oath and their relatives, friends, brothers, brothers and nephews were all killed, and all the sons of Mang Gurtai and Derge were also demoted to concubines, and the population and property under them were all returned to the Khan King, so that the Zhenglan Banner fell into the hands of Huang Taiji, and from then on, the Son of Heaven made the Three Banners a rule.

There is no exact number of people killed in this big case, but in terms of the slaughter within the family, it is probably no less than the one when Nurhachi killed his brother, and it is the first time that Ling Chi has used such an extremely cruel criminal law with a thousand knives. 3。 And that's not all. The two daughters of Mang Guji, who led this series of events, also suffered bad luck one after another. Hauge solemnly announced his bold words: "I am the son of the emperor, and since the mother of my wife wants to harm my father, how can I live with the daughter who murdered my father!" He killed his wife himself! Yue Tuo was then squeezed into the cracks, and had to express to Huang Taiji that he wanted to kill his wife, this kind of public request actually expressed Yue Tuo's unbearableness, and also praised Huang Taiji's self-proclaimed lenient generals. Huang Taiji really stopped Yue Tuo. But later, there was an inexplicable enchanting incident in Yue Tuo's house, and Yue Tuo's wife, the eldest daughter of Mang Guji, was convicted of claustrophobia and never allowed to meet Yue Tuo.

In the end, the emperor instructed him to give the blessing of the Derge class to his younger brother Azig; Mang Gurtai's Fujin was given to his nephews Haoge and Yue Tuo respectively. - Probably to compensate these two wives who killed and divorced their wives.

Killing chickens to show monkeys, Dai Shan's mood at this time is probably not just a simple rabbit dying and fox sadness. 5。

Huang Taiji is very thorough in doing things. When Chongde changed the Yuan to become emperor, Dai Shan once again received the highest favor and was named the most respected Prince Heshuo Brother Li. In December of that year, Dai Shan accompanied Huang Taiji to North Korea. The following year, when the Emperor Taiji ordered the Law Division to pursue the crime of illegal and reckless behavior during the attack on Korea, Dai Shan was negotiated on six counts. Huang Taiji personally proclaimed the crime of acting for goodness to the kings and ministers in the Chongde Palace. Although no punishment was given (in fact, because these crimes were trivial and trivial), it was another heavy blow to the prestige and psychology of Dai Shan.

No matter how angular and sharp people are, after such constant beating, hot baking, and cold freezing, they will also be kneaded into a soft dough.

Dai Shan made it clear when he swore allegiance to Huang Taiji in Zhubeile: "From now on, I will be loyal to the emperor." 5。 The specific manifestation of his allegiance is that he uses old age as an excuse and does not ask about government affairs. This is exactly what Huang Taiji needs most.

Dai Shan was completely subdued and recognized the absolute authority of Huang Taiji. He had kneaded it into a soft dough. Can such an old and frail soft dough who does not care about the government inherit the throne? Don't say that it is difficult to convince the public, I am afraid that even if he has this heart, he will not have the courage to do so.

"Then the rest is that Uncle Fourteen and Big Brother Hauge are fighting?" Alida said, "I naturally support Uncle Fourteen. ”

"What is the use of support? Are you the flag owner or am I the flag owner? ”

Alida spread her hands helplessly, "None of us are ~"

In Hetuala, two strong contenders for the throne are also acting in secret.

Xianhaoge was brave by nature, and joined the army as a young man, accompanied his grandfather and father and brother in the war to unify the Jurchens, and made many military exploits in the battles against the Mongolian Dongkui, Chahar, and Ordos tribes, and was given the title of Baylor at the age of sixteen or seventeen. 8。 Later, he repeatedly went out with the same generation of Shan, Jierharang, Dolgon and other commanders, followed his father Huang Taiji to defeat Ming, all of them had military merits, so Tiancong was promoted to Heshuo Baylor in six years, and when Huang Taiji was called emperor in the first year of Chongde, he was named Prince Su and concurrently managed the household department. He is one of the famous generals of the Heavenly Destiny and Heavenly Cong.

Dolgon had the last words of "succeeding to the throne with Dolgon and acting as a good auxiliary government" before Nurhachi's death, although his last wish came to naught, but it can also be known that Dolgon was brilliant and good at dealing with himself since he was a child, and among the three young sons born to Nurhachi by Abahai, he was the only one who was loved by the old Khan. In February of the second year of Tiancong (1628 AD), the sixteen-year-old Dolgon and the fourteen-year-old Duoduo followed Huang Taiji to conquer Chahar Mongolia and returned triumphantly. The two boys did not have any exploits in such a big war, but the emperor Taiji at the celebration banquet said: "The two younger brothers went on an expedition for the first time, and they were industrious and victorious", and they should be commended. So he gave Dolgon the name "Morgan Daiqing" (meaning a wise general) and promoted him to Gushan Belle; Bestow the name "Erke Chuhuer" to reward him for his bravery.

Dorgon's advantage was obvious, he had a will from the old Khan to succeed him; His mother was the Venerable Great Fortune Jin; As the owner of the flag and holding two white flags in his hands, he is very strong; He had a distinguished military exploit; He had a great talent for governing the country. The absurd Prince Yu Duoduo can't be compared with it, the old and weak Prince Li Daishan can't be compared with it, and Zilharang is not his opponent because he is the nephew of Nurhachi, only Haoge can compete with him, but in terms of political quality, it is also far from it. The other sons of Nurhachi are even less hopeless because they are not princes.

However, it was difficult for Dorgon to succeed to the throne.

The opposition came from the three flags of the Son of Heaven, especially the two yellow flags. The original banner owner was the emperor's own two yellow flags, which were naturally the most elite team of the Qing Dynasty, concentrated the elite soldiers and strong generals of Manchuria, and enjoyed more honor and treatment than other flags. In order to protect their vested interests, the only way to succeed them is to appoint the emperor's son to the throne. Hauge was the eldest among the princes and held a high position as a prince, and he had been in battle for a long time and was prestigious, so the ministers of the two yellow flags set their sights on him from the beginning. As a result, the two Yellow Banner ministers Turge, Sony, Turai, Xihan, Gong Adai, Aobai, Tan Tai, and Tazhan went to Haoge's house together and agreed to appoint Haoge as the king. Considering that Haoge's background is not noble enough, the specific plan proposed is: Haoge will succeed to the throne as the emperor, and Bogol, the son of the Grand Concubine Yijing and the son of Namu Zhong of the Borzigit clan, will be the crown prince. In this way, the two yellow flags can always be the two yellow flags.
