In the early morning of the next day, the coffin of the old Khan arrived in Shenyang in the rain, and the ministers of civil and military affairs cried and went to the dock to greet them. Life in the big yamen is not easy, no one would have thought that there would be so many Baylor living in, just they are easy to do, but these guys in order to grow the momentum also brought the brothers, sons and nephews of each family, plus their own Aha, the big yamen made a miasma, except for the Dazheng Palace, people live in places other than the Dazheng Palace, this is not counted, in order to prevent a few people from stealing and playing tricks, they also implemented the whole day of the people's marking, eating and sleeping each flag must send representatives to supervise each other, even the thatched house has to be watched by the representatives of each flag, Azig brothers don't talk about it, the two red flags are second only to the two yellow flags because of their strength, Dai Shan's father and son are also closely monitored, and the four Baylors, who have always been recognized as the most cunning, can't escape, and the father and son are followed wherever they go, and people can't stand it for a few days, Duoduo is making trouble every day to go home, Dai Shan also said that since he entered the big yamen, he can't pull out the, and when he is in a dilemma, the good news finally came, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, and ran to the dock crying, of course, this also has to go together.

Transporting the coffin of the old Khan into the city, Baylor and Beizi poured into the Dazheng Hall together with the nobles and important ministers, and all the people looked at Amin with their eyes, Amin pretended to look at everyone deeply, and then stood up and waved his hand and said: "The Great Khan's legacy, the Dajin state system remains unchanged, and the Eight Banners are still implemented, and the four Baylors are still on duty for state affairs." ”

Everyone was overjoyed, if it weren't for the fact that Lao Khan had just died, he would almost jump up and cheer, the four great Baylors stood up together, stood side by side and waved to everyone, and then sat down together, now the Dajin Kingdom is the four Buddhas, according to what Lao Khan said in the past, they can sit side by side and accept the worship of the people together.

"No, the Great Khan has an edict," everyone looked for prestige, only to see the concubine slowly walking into the Great Political Palace, "The Great Khan's edict, assisted by the Great Belle in the national affairs, Dolgon and Duoduo choose one person to be the lord of the Great Golden State, do you understand?" It's up to you to assist in the country's affairs! ”

Everyone was angry, it turned out that the two yellow flags and the two red flags had colluded to calculate us, but this must not be agreed, everyone immediately shouted, "woman's opinion", "empty words" ......, Dai Shan was frightened, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "This is none of my business, I don't know anything." ”

It was still Sibeile who reasoned, and said solemnly: "If Father Khan really has an edict left, of course those of us who are children and grandchildren must do what Father Khan wants. ”

Amin scolded in his heart, this girl is bent on making trouble, if you want to find death yourself, then don't blame me, he replied calmly: "What is the edict, I am the accompanying Baylor, and if there is an edict, I will give it to me, why haven't I seen it?" ”

"It was you who ruined it, and the Great Khan also said that the edict was read by Erlu with you in the Great Palace, Amin, why did you forget it so quickly?" The eldest concubine has already been out of the way, and she is not afraid of anything.

"Which Erlu, let him go to the temple for questioning." Mang Gurtai interjected.

"Erlu was driven away by Erbele."

"Nonsense, Erlu was sent by the Great Khan, and he has another errand."

The eldest concubine sneered, stared at Dai Shan with both eyes and said, "Big Belle, what I am telling is the truth, you can do it yourself with your conscience." After the concubine finished speaking, she walked away, and Big Baylor shrank his head and said nothing, he and this woman were accused of having an affair back then, and that time it hurt him, and today she is going to hurt herself again, so don't talk nonsense at this time.

Looking at the back of the concubine who was far away, Mang Gurtai sneered: "The eldest concubine is so powerful, she dares to talk nonsense about this unfounded thing, and she will have it in the future." ”

"I remember that my father Khan seems to have said that the eldest concubine is jealous and good at change, and he can restrain her when he is alive, and he is afraid that he will become a trouble after death, so when he dies, he will bury the eldest concubine, do you remember?" Four Baylor said with a gloomy face.

"I remember, it's like this." Mang Gurtai immediately understood, this is the fourth Belle remembered that his mother Menggu and the eldest concubine competed for favor, but this woman really can't stay.

Immediately, many Baylors remembered that there was such a thing, Azig and Dolgon were pale and did not dare to say a word, and Duoduo jumped out and pointed at everyone and shouted: "You are talking nonsense, you are trying to harm my mother!" He cried and ran out.

Sibeile sighed and said: "Actually, I don't want to do this, but we can't help but listen to Father Khan's words, for example, Father Khan said that after he leaves, the Yellow Banner Master will be handed over to Duoduo, and the Yellow Flag Lord will be handed over to you Azig, and we will definitely follow it." ”

Azig breathed a sigh of relief, a stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and Dolgon asked timidly: "Starling, what about me?" ”

Sibeile shook his head: "Old Fourteen, the Great Khan only said that he would let you temporarily take care of the white flag, and never said that he would give you the white flag, so the matter of the owner of the white flag must be decided by Zhu Beile after consultation." ”

In the palace of the Great Khan of Beicheng, the concubine stroked Duoduo, who was crying in her arms, and said with a smile: "Duoduo, my good boy, Eniang has no ability, I wanted to fight for you, but I still lost, you have to live well, and it is good for Eniang to accompany your father Khan." ”

"Eniang, why didn't Elu come to save you, he is so powerful, he must be able to save you."

"Don't say stupid things, no matter how powerful Erlu is, he can't stop the Baylors, in fact, Erlu has tried his best, it's useless for him to come, E-Niang still hopes that he will go as far as possible, and when you see him in the future, you will say, E-Niang doesn't blame him, he is still a good boy, but Father Khan and E-Niang can't stand him."

While the mother and son were talking, Daishan, Amin, Mang Gurtai and Huang Taiji came together, and Azig and Dolgon followed behind their butts in despair, and Duoduo jumped up, waved his fist and said, "You are not allowed to harm my mother!" ”

The eldest concubine grabbed Duoduo and said coldly to the Baylors, "Have you all discussed?" ”

Big Baylor said embarrassedly: "Concubine Niangniang, it's not that I want to harm you, it's really that Baylor all say that the Great Khan has a testament, let you ......"

"Don't say it, I know everything, it's okay if you want me to die as a Great Khan, but I want you to swear to treat my two little brothers well, they are also your brothers."

Sibeile said: "Father Khan has made Zhubeile swear before his death, brothers must respect and love each other, even if the brother is guilty, God will punish him, and he shall not be killed, we should obey my father's orders, if the eldest concubine does not believe, I will swear to the sky in front of you again."

The four great Baylors immediately swore in front of the incense case that they would support Dolgon and Duoduo and never harm them.

The eldest concubine nodded, and calmly said to the four people: "I will believe you, anyway, your father Khan's spirit in the sky will watch you," the eldest concubine suddenly laughed, and continued: "Your father Khan told me a thing, and I also told you to listen, the Great Khan said that if you suddenly rebel one day, it must be Mang Gurtai who rushes forward to kill people with a knife, and he will do this, and it must be Huang Taiji who instigates the rebellion, but he will not personally kill people and set fires, but tell his subordinates with tears that he is saving everyone by not rebelling, He didn't kill the Great Khan but killed the bad guys around the Great Khan, Da Baylor is the best, and he will definitely save the Great Khan, but as long as his two red flags suffer a little loss, he will hide immediately, and whoever wins will serve whom, as for Amin, he must be asking for a sky-high price, whoever gives more benefits, he will do it with whom, the winner in the end must be Huang Taiji, Mang Gurtai will definitely be a big loser, Amin is not pleasing at both ends, and he will have to clean him up if he wins, Da Baylor is the most stable to guard his little belongings and wait for death, your father Khan is not wrong, right? ”

The concubine laughed loudly after speaking, touched her tears and walked to the inner room, Duoduo was hugged by Azig and cried heartbreakingly, Dolgon cried and said, "It's all Erlu useless, he hurt Eniang." ”

Azig shouted: "Eniang, I will definitely kill Eru to avenge you." ”

"I can't save my mother, why do I blame others?" The eldest concubine dropped a sentence without looking back, walked into the house and closed the door.

The eldest concubine went, and among the many wives and concubines of Yingming Khan, there were unfortunately two little Fujin Deyincha and Azigen, who were also forced to die because they did not have children - the eldest concubine couldn't get rid of these two little Fujin who loved to make small reports wherever she went.

The Minister of the Interior, Yasun, suddenly became stupid because of excessive sadness, and claimed to have the same forgetfulness as Erlu, and by the way, he forgot all about the past, including the funeral of the old Khan, and pretended to be stupid when others asked, and the first-class guard Asari simply couldn't even find the shadow of the person, and his wife and children at home were gone, and the old Khan's guards ran away two at once, and the Baylors had to take care of the old Khan's guards, Ahha, the slave girls, and the precious eunuchs. It wasn't until the unlucky ones who were selected for the martyrdom were finally determined that the remaining lucky ones who were half scared to death were released.

The most uncomfortable thing in Dajin is that this month is on duty Belle Daishan, the old Khan died and threw a mess, and just let him receive it first, the old Khan fought hard for decades, the situation in the Jin country still has not fundamentally changed, although the Ming country in the south is strong but strong, a lot of silver is thrown down to build Liaoxi into a copper wall, the Chahar Mongolia in the west is dying and not dying, Chahar Khan cried and shouted to the Ming country for money and food to continue to sharpen his broken knives, North Korea in the east and Dongjiang Town in the Ming country colluded together, Stubbornly adhere to the position of being the enemy of the Dajin country, the situation in the north is better, the savage tribes of Varkha, Huerha and Sauron have no capital to fight with the Dajin country, but when they are poor and crazy, they will definitely come to grab a few, in fact, the Dajin country is surrounded on all sides, fortunately, the Dajin country is strong, and it is not afraid to fight with anyone, but the question is whether the Dajin country can still fight, this year even suffered from drought and floods, the grain production was seriously reduced, and the old Khan's tuokesuo could not be maintained, and the Zhuang Ding could not survive and fled with their families, and some of the tuokesuo people ran out, and the flag soldiers from all over the country, The Han army frantically hunted and killed fugitives, but they still couldn't stop this wave of escape. There is less grain harvested in the fields, and the price of grain in the city naturally has to rise, but the price of grain in Shenyang has risen too evilly, that is to turn over and fight up, and there are signs of a slight downward fall, and some people will buy in large quantities immediately, until the price of grain goes up a big section before they are willing to stop, and now the grain trading in Shenyang City is calculated according to the bucket and the liter, and the common people no longer dare to ask a stone and a few taels of silver to buy grain, but ask a bucket of a few taels of silver, everyone has to live with their fingers, of course the big Baylor knows what the problem is, but he does not dare to care, together with his even red flag, The magnates of the Eight Banners are almost all doing speculative food, and he doesn't do this kind of thing that offends people - some of the people who starve to death are good, as long as his people don't starve to death.

After the death of the old Khan, the Dajin Kingdom was in crisis, and the four little suns in the sky each sowed sunshine on their own small territory, and the affairs of other people's families only took care of you, and the people of the upper echelons were in chaos and the hearts of the people were floating below, Liu Xingzuo in Sakhalian's small circle asserted that the collapse of the Dajin Kingdom was imminent, and Kurtang and Dahai believed that only the two red flags could save Dajin, and now it was time for the two red flags to take action, and it was too late.

Of course, Sakhalian knew that the situation was urgent, he hit it off with his eldest brother Yue Tuo, who was in charge of the red flag, and went to find their Ama and the two red flag banners to Dai Shan, and the anxious big Belle was bent on living the days of his wife and children hot kangtou, and the most feared thing was to let him clean up this mess, someone could come forward and ask for it, the father and son quickly agreed that the two red flags would come forward to recommend the successor of the Dajin Kingdom, the candidate was ready-made, and the four Belle had this great sweat addiction, and his positive white flag was only eighteen Niu Lu, and the strength was pitifully small, The son only has one lone seedling, Haoge, which is very suitable, it is him.

Da Baylor was in tandem in the Great Palace, Mang Gurtai immediately agreed, he was most afraid that the powerful Da Baylor would grab the position of the Great Khan, although the eighth person was not a good person, but his strength was too poor, and he might have a chance to bully him. Amin didn't care who was the Great Khan, but he said that the old Khan allowed him to stand on his own feet when he was dying, and he asked for it to be honored immediately, and the other Baylors were of course against it, you said that the old Khan agreed, is there an edict from the old Khan? You yourself keep saying that you haven't seen the edict! Amin rolled his eyes in anger.

Zhu Beile agreed, but the four Beiles were not happy, I am that little bit of population, who of you will listen to me in the future? I won't carry the black pot for you, so everyone persuaded Sibeile to come, Sakhalian and Yuetuo called him "the crown of talent and virtue, and he should succeed to the throne as soon as possible", and Sibeile postponed it again and again, insisting that he was not talented enough, and asked everyone to choose another merit.

After a few days of pulling the skin, Big Baylor couldn't stand it, so it was better to talk about the conditions behind closed doors, so the four Baylors got together alone to bargain, and the four Baylors first proposed that their population was too small, and the old Khan had two yellow flags, and I had to have two yellow flags if I pretended to be, and you had to increase the population for me.

This is more troublesome, the two yellow flags are ready-made, but they are left by the old Khan to Azig and Duoduo, whoever wants to rob the two brothers must play with their lives, and besides, it is sixty-five Niu Lu! Why did you give it to the eighth in vain, everyone used their brains and finally came up with a way - simply change the flag, the eighth child's own white flag turned into a positive yellow flag, and the inlaid white flag happened to have no flag owner, and the white sent to the old eight, turned into a yellow flag, the original yellow and inlaid yellow turned into a positive white and inlaid white flag, as for Dolgon, who has been mixed in the inlaid white flag and wants to be the flag owner, let him go and transfer him to his brother Azig to eat together.

Four Baylor white pick up inlaid white flags fifteen Niu Lu is also content, immediately return to the Baylors a big gift, the previous flag owners are most afraid of the old Khan confiscated their Niu Lu, this is a painful thing, four Baylor promised to take the throne, immediately reform this malpractice, in the future there will be a confiscation of Niu Lu, the confiscated Niu Lu is not transferred out of the flag, but transferred to the brothers, sons and nephews of the penalty flag owner, Baylor expressed firm support for the reform of the four Baylor, and agreed that the old eight still have a conscience.

The conditions were negotiated, and the four beylers were elected as the Great Khan under the support of the Zhubeile, Beizi, and civil and military ministers, and on the first day of the ninth month of the 11th year of the Mandate of Heaven, the four beylers were in the Great Yamen in the Great Palace, that is, the Khan, burned incense, and declared the following year as the first year of Tiancong.

In the middle of October, the weather in the Ula Mountains began to get colder, the birds that like to gather together have already flown south, there is a silence on the Ula River in the distance, the trees in the mountains and forests have turned yellow, the dead leaves have fallen all over the ground, the wild beasts in the mountains have also quietly hidden, the morning frost and the evening wind bring gusts of chill, making people shiver with cold, only the day is still pleasant, the sun is still high above the blue sky, and the sun is warm. Winter is in the Ula Mountains, and it won't be long before this is a white expanse, and at this time, people like the wild beasts in the mountains have to be busy preparing for a cold and long winter.

In the dense woods at the southern foot of Wula Mountain, the clear stream is flowing down a mountain stream, and there is a small village next to the mountain stream, the village is obviously dilapidated, the surrounding wooden fence has been incomplete, and most of the houses in the village have collapsed and destroyed, but there are still remnants of wooden houses with smoke, indicating that there are still people living here, this is the original village of the Kulu tribe, although the battle in the north of the town is in full swing, there is still a rare quiet here, and the Dajin Kingdom is busy dealing with many strong enemies, The remnant tribes living outside the pass only need to hand over a few furs every year to show their respect for the Dajin Kingdom, but people like the Kulu tribe who hate the Dajin Kingdom will not even hand over a mouse skin, and the Great Khan of the Jin Kingdom is helpless against them.

Li Yu was struggling with a tree trunk, he regretted why he didn't expect to bring a few saws back, it took a lot of effort to cut this thick log, the old shaman kept shouting: "You are crazy, you only know how to work for so many days, and today you are on this tree trunk again, you might as well leave early." ”

"I want to reinforce those holes, and you can live in them when it's cold." Li Yu took off his coat and continued to swing an axe to chop.

The old shaman shook his head and handed over a bowl of water, he and a dozen old people did not follow Kuru into the customs, but returned to the original village, and made up their minds to die in the ancestral homeland, of course, their lives were very hard, but they were also comfortable, no one cared about them here, and no one collected taxes from them, after the surrounding savage tribes came, they immediately dispelled the idea of robbing and annexing them, and never patronized again, the old people barely survived by laying traps in the forest to catch prey, farming and collecting some grain under the mountain.

In mid-August, Li Yu took Meng Ke and Hadari back to Wula Mountain, which made the old people excited, they didn't expect to have the opportunity to see their relatives, but the news that Kulu and the young men in several tribes died in the Xilamulun River made them feel uncomfortable, but the old shaman said that the Ula people are strong warriors, and dying on the battlefield is also a good destination, but it is not worth it for them to die for that family, the old shaman is very appreciative of Li Yu's escape from the Jin country, although the Ula people have been wiped out, but the blood is still there, that is, they should not die for the Jin country, That family was so bad.

The old shaman was only happy for Li Yu to come back for a few days and urged Li Yu to leave, of course he was reluctant to let Li Yu go, but he was afraid that Li Yu would be plundered by the surrounding savage tribes, they old people don't care, no one wants them, Li Yu and Meng Ke are strong men, Hadari can work for another two years, if these three people are targeted, it would be terrible, the old shaman told Li Yu that they these old people live one day at a time, and they can't burden the children, the world is very big, and there are places to break into. The old shaman asked the mountain god for Li Yu's business, and then went to the Ula River to ask the river god, and the mountain god and the river god gave him answers that frightened him, and the two great gods said that the great murderer here could not stay for a long time, and told him that the children of Ula had to travel west to five thousand miles away to find a place to live, and since then the old shaman has urged Li Yu to go quickly every day.

Li Yu also knew that he couldn't stay long, he was a person who was trapped in the circle of right and wrong in the Jin Kingdom, the farther he went, the safer he went, Meng Ke helped him ponder for a long time, it was impossible to defect to the Ming Kingdom, they could only die faster when they went to the Ming Kingdom, Chahar Khan himself was almost finished, he couldn't go there, he was a good person who went over the mountains and tigers Mandahai, but as far as his few people, no matter how you look at it, it can't become the climate, so let's just take refuge in the grass and fly, he still has some power in Tumut and Karaqin. Li Yu is very dissatisfied, you Meng Ke want to be a thief and just go by yourself, I will take Hadari to a place where there is no war, I will farm and shepherd sheep by myself to support myself, Li Yu thought about it and said; "Let's go to Fengzhou Beach, I heard that the Umu Sat Yuerji Lama said that Alatan Khan has governed it well, and he has negotiated peace with the Ming State, there should be no war, and there can be both horses and sheep grazing and crops, so we will go there!"

Meng Ke immediately agreed, Fengzhou Beach was the territory of the Tumut people, and it happened to be the old nest of the grass flying.

Then Li Yu looked for work every day, he wanted to finish all the things of the old shaman and them for the winter before leaving, Meng Ke was not idle, he and Hadari went into the forest every day to lay traps and dig traps, which was also his favorite job, and this time it was delayed.

Li Yu took the wooden bowl handed over by the old shaman, drank the water in it in a few sips, and chatted with the old shaman while working, the old shaman kept complaining that Li Yu was not going to leave quickly, and the heavy snow would come in another month, and he couldn't leave if he wanted to.

Li Yu said nonchalantly: "Grandpa Shaman, don't worry, I'm a good life, I've repaired the manhole in the past few days, I'll do more work, and you'll be better this winter." ”

The old shaman shook his head and said, "How many times have you said this, everyone is anxious for you!" In the past, our tribe had a lot of people, and no one was afraid, but now it can't be done, if there is really trouble, even a helper can't be found. ”

"Have Monk and Hadari prepared the firewood? Winter is a must-have. ”

"It's all ready, that Mongol went with Hadari's condom again today, it won't take so much, I'm worried that I'll catch all the prey."

"Tell him to quit tomorrow, and put these logs into the hole with me, and this guy should come back after going out for a morning."

At this time, Hadari's shout suddenly came from the entrance of the village: "Uncle Savage, someone has come to arrest you, it is a soldier of the Jin Kingdom, go and get a bow and arrow." ”
