Chapter 25 The Situation in Beijing
Chapter 25 The Situation in Beijing
Dolgon's death can cause an uproar in Nanjing. In Beijing, I don't know how many people have been confused.
Azig left behind the army that was in Liaodong, and even left Dorgon's coffin behind.
Just with his son and his personal guards, before the news reached Beijing. I came to Beijing first.
Gather the Helohui and the others, all of whom are the descendants of Dorgon and Dordor. Now that Dorgon and Dodor are gone, they have no backbone.
The Qing court in this era still adheres to the politics of the king, not that the prince of the clan does not have a strong voice in political affairs.
Azig is a man who does not convince all of them, but the two white flag groups are more worried about the counterattack of the two yellow flag groups.
You must know that if there was no Dai Shan, the two yellow flags and the two white flags would have met each other a long time ago.
They desperately need someone who can hold the scene.
Although Azig has such and such flaws, the problem is that Azig is also the son of an old slave anyway. He was the prince of the Great Qing Dynasty.
In between, forced by the situation, the two White Flags and a group of people united unprecedentedly, and a letter of nomination of Azig as regent flew into Ouchi.
Immediately afterwards, the army near Jingshi, which was of course controlled by Dolgon, was suddenly under martial law.
This note was placed in front of Shunzhi.
Shunzhi couldn't control himself, and said angrily: "This generation dares." Then with a wave of his hand, everything on the table was smashed on the ground with a clatter.
Today's Shunzhi is no longer the child he was at the beginning. It is the age when the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, even when Dolgon was there, he has been thinking about how to get rid of Dolgon, and even gritted his teeth for some rumors between Dolgon and the Queen Mother.
It's just that Dorgon's deterrent power is enough, and all of Shunzhi's thoughts can only be stuffed in his heart.
Dorgon died. The happiest is Shunzhi.
I heard that Dolgon was in the midst of a great victory, and saw Zheng Chenggong escape. Some people say that it was done by heart disease, some people say that Dolgon used a pair of twins and used excessive force, and some people say that Dolgon is the wind of removing armor, that is, after the big war, he suddenly took off his armor, which will make people sick.
I heard that the previous dynasty often met spring and went away with this disease.
Either way, Dorgon died. Shunzhi felt that his pro-government resistance was empty.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Azig came out and continued to be the regent. Really treat him like a three-year-old. At this moment, Shunzhi blurted out and said, "I will kill this generation." ”
"Ahem." But I heard a voice coming from behind. But it was the voice of the Queen Mother.
At this moment, the Queen Mother and Shunzhi, as well as King Zheng and Prince Li, Jieshu, four people.
The Empress Dowager felt that Shunzhi was still a little uncontrollable, and asked:
"King Zheng, you are an old minister of the clan, what do you think of Azig's thoughts?"
King Zheng Jierharang has obviously aged in recent years.
It seems that King Zheng has not done anything in the past few years, but he is the one who holds back each other in Jingshi and Dolgon.
I don't know how much effort it takes, let alone it. When Zilharang was young, he was also a fierce general.
Since ancient times, famous generals have been like beauties, and they are not allowed to see white heads in the world. This sentence may have some absolutes, but the conditions in the army are too poor, many generals, when they are young, rely on good health and thick foundation, gritting their teeth and working hard, but in their old age, they age very quickly, and the life expectancy is not high, which is also a fact.
Although Prince Zheng didn't say it, he was also sick and sick.
Prince Zheng was not so happy about Dorgon's death.
Shunzhi only thinks about pro-government, but Prince Zheng has to think more.
After all, the situation of the Qing court now.
In fact, after the Battle of Anqing, Prince Zheng did not do much to Dolgon, and even cooperated in many things, such as Dolgon's quiet departure from Beijing, without Prince Zheng's acquiescence, and cooperation was impossible.
This is because the Qing court was facing the aggressive offensive of the Southern Dynasty. It has fallen into the downwind.
Prince Zheng didn't want to affect the overall situation because of infighting. To be clear, there is no one who can take Dorgon's place today, including Shunzhi.
Even if Shunzhi is pro-government, can he control political affairs as maturely as Dolgon, and deter the generals of the Han army, so that they dare not act rashly?
Prince Zheng is not optimistic.
Who knows the benefits of holding supreme power, but whether it can bear the burden behind it is not necessarily.
"Your Majesty, Queen Mother." Prince Zheng said: "The British king controls the two white flags, and the rest of the regent, this generation of the party from the regent, lest he be held accountable for His Majesty, so he is attached to the British king, if he pursues it, there will be troubled times, these are my good men in the Qing Dynasty, and they should not be damaged in the civil strife." ”
There is another meaning in Prince Zheng's words.
Anyone who can go deep into the decision-making center and be hated by Shunzhi is from the Eight Banners. Because it's not that the old surname of the Eight Banners is Dingduo, it's impossible to be so deeply involved with Dorgon. Now the Eight Banners support the Qing Dynasty soldiers, which is already a little insufficient.
If so many elites are lost again, not to mention the impact, they really can't afford to lose.
"Uncle Wang, do you mean to make the King of England like Dorgon?" Shunzhi said angrily, "I am in the palace, let him fool me?" ”
Prince Zheng said: "This is not what the slave meant, but Your Majesty also knows what kind of person the King of England is, this person is stubborn and self-responsible, and he has never been sympathetic to the slaves below, otherwise he would not have Dolgon." Even if the King of England took on the burden of two white flags, he could not afford it. ”
"Your Majesty wants to settle down a little,
Grace is given to the two white flags, how can the two white flags not be grateful to Dade and repay His Majesty? ”
"When the time comes, you can send the British king's generals."
Prince Zheng's intention was to solve Azig while preserving the vitality of the Qing army as much as possible.
It's just that Shunzhi was not satisfied with this handling opinion, he swept his eyes over Jieshu, but saw Jieshu, his eyes looked at his nose, his nose looked at his mouth, his mouth asked his heart, he looked like a wood carving, and secretly said in his heart: "Waste." ”
Shunzhi wanted to make a fuss and clean up the remnants of Azig and Dolgon.
Speaking of which, the entire Qing Dynasty still has the advantage of Shunzhi.
First of all, under the auspices of Dolgon, the strength of the Han army, especially the green battalion in the northwest, has greatly increased, and there are many Han women in the Shunzhi Palace, which are married to these generals, so to speak, the Qing army in the northwest, Henan, and Yangzhou. In Dolgon's absence, they were willing to throw themselves into the Emperor's absence.
After all, in the hearts of many Han people, Shunzhi is the emperor after all, and he is in power, and his name is justified.
The concept of the emperor among the Han people is different from the concept of the emperor in the eyes of the Manchus.
In the eyes of many Manchu aristocrats, the emperor was first the lord of the two yellow flags, then the co-lord of the eight banners, and then the emperor.
It's just that Dolgon naturally knows that these Han people are unreliable, so no matter how urgent the war is near Beijing, there are also two white flag troops stationed, and there are naturally two yellow flag troops near the palace, and the two sides balance each other, and in general, Dolgon controls the military power of the Beijing Division.
However, if Dolgon really wants to do something, I'm afraid that the capital division will also have a big fire.
This is the political basis for Azig's book.
But Azig is Azig after all, he is not Dolgon.
In the hands of Shunzhi, there are already many letters of allegiance from generals. If you attack immediately, you may not be able to take Azig down in one fell swoop, but Shunzhi knows that in this matter, it is not him who can really make a decision, but the queen mother.
And the Queen Mother will definitely listen to Prince Zheng.
Sure enough, I heard the Queen Mother say: "Prince Zheng means it." ”
"The music of the quasi-British king, to give Dolgon a shadow after his death." Prince Zheng said.
"Okay." The Queen Mother said: "Let the King of England take over as the regent, lead the affairs of the world, and posthumously crown Prince Rui as the righteous emperor." ”
"What?" Shunzhi couldn't hold back any longer, stood up, and said, "Since the queen mother said so, the child can only obey the order." Then he flicked his sleeves and walked away. Hang them all in the main hall.
Shunzhi hated Dolgon very much, and he couldn't wait to break Dolgon's body into ten thousand pieces, and he was unwilling to add a trace of posthumous sealing for Dolgon, he knew that even if he didn't agree, he couldn't resist the Queen Mother. made such a scene.
For a while, Prince Zheng Jierharang and Prince Li Jieshu didn't know what to say.
"Leave him alone." The Queen Mother said lightly: "Go on." ”
