Chapter 824: That's it
Huang Taiji finished saying this with an expressionless face, paused and quietly watched Mang Gurtai's reaction.
Among the people present, no one knew what kind of medicine Huang Taiji was selling in the gourd when he did this, and they all sat with bated breath, waiting for Mang Gurtai's answer.
What everyone didn't expect was that Mang Gurtai suddenly took a deep breath, raised his head to the sky and sighed, then stared at Huang Taiji and said:
"I think that when the first Khan died, I didn't say who among my brothers would succeed to the throne, and I was reckless Gurtai above your four beylers, so why don't you have a chance?!
"But I reckless Gurtai respects thee for thy good name, and for thy brother, and for thy brother, I have taken the honour of the three beyles and given my brother to my brother, and have come to thy aid!
"How do you know that after you succeeded to the throne, the Great Khan first embarrassed the three brothers of Dolgon, seized their cattle and fattened themselves, and then embarrassed the second Bel Amin, took the cattle of his world and imprisoned them with high walls.
"Now that the Great Khan has failed to lead his army to conquer Ming, and there is no defeat in any way from the various banners, why should the Great Khan be embarrassed by my blue banner alone?
"Before, the Great Khan confiscated the cattle of the three Dolgon brothers, and I was thinking that you were the Great Khan, and everything was obedient, and then the Great Khan deprived the second Belle of the title, and I thought you were the Great Khan, and everything was obedient.
"Unexpectedly, today, the Great Khan actually sinned against me for disobeying military orders and committing the following crimes, is he trying to take my Niu Luye, is he trying to kill me?!"
After saying this, Mang Gurtai laughed angrily, held the scabbard on his waist with one hand, and the handle of the long knife with the other, glared at Huang Taiji angrily, and stepped forward.
At this moment, Ahdan, who had been standing beside Huang Taiji and staring at Mang Gurtai, suddenly rushed out from Huang Taiji's side and pounced on Mang Gurtai, swinging his fist and scolding angrily: "What are you going to do?!" Do you want to rebel?! ”
Ahadan is Yanguli's eldest son, and like his father Yanguli, he is Huang Taiji's hardcore confidant.
As the Yellow Flag's swinging teeth and bull Lu Ezhen, he is also Huang Taiji's henchman guard, he was whipped in front of Mang Gurtai, and was greatly humiliated, and he has long been unaccustomed to Mang Gurtai's arrogant appearance, at this time, he saw Mang Gurtai pressing the handle of the knife, took a step towards Huang Taiji, and immediately rushed out.
Mang Gurtai didn't expect this little guard to dare to make a move with him, and as a result, Ahdan's fist hit him in the shoulder.
Mang Gurtai grew so big, no one in the Jurchen Eight Banners had ever dared to do anything with him, and he was furious at the moment, and while scolding angrily, "How dare you beat me, a minion", he pulled out the saber on his waist with a bang.
Mang Gurtai's long knife was unsheathed, and He Luohui and others behind Huang Taiji also drew their knives in their hands.
At this time, Abatai, Yuetuo, Hauge and the others immediately shouted: "Sanbel, how dare you be so rebellious?!" ”
Leng Seng Ji, the minister of the Zhenglan Banner, also exclaimed: "This is the Imperial Front!" Three Baylor don't do it! Three Baylor don't do it! ”
Without waiting for Huang Taiji to react from his shock, Abatai, Yue Tuo, Leng Seng Ji and others rushed forward, supported Mang Gurtai Tuantuan, and pushed him out of the second hall of the deliberations together.
There was chaos in the hall, only Huang Taiji was still sitting in his place and muttering, "Sanbeile despises me so much!" Three-Baylor despises me, and that's it! ”
Of course, Huang Taiji has long known that his seventh brother and third Belle are ambitious, not only does he not have much awe of himself in his heart, but he has always been dissatisfied with himself on the surface.
Before cleaning up Erbeile Amin, although Huang Taiji had inherited the throne of Khan, the deliberations in the Dugong Hall of the Khan Palace of the Dajin Kingdom have always been the pattern of the four Baylors sitting in the same row and discussing side by side.
On the one hand, this is the rule set by the old slave Nuer Hachi before his death.
On the other hand, this is also a compromise and concession made by Huang Taiji in order to get the support of the other three big Baylors to inherit the throne.
That's a long story.
At the beginning, the old slave Nuer Hachi returned from the defeat of Ningyuan and was seriously injured, and while he was recuperating in bed, his intention was actually to let Dolgon, the fourteenth son of the most outstanding son of the concubine at that time, inherit the throne.
And this idea, he has been brewing for a long time, just because he feels that he is still old and strong, and he has not publicly established a reserve.
So why didn't Nuerhachi leave a bunch of older sons and choose to let Dorgon succeed him?
One reason is that Dolgon is indeed very good, both civil and military, and he is deeply favored by the old slaves, and the later history of the Manchu Qing Dynasty does prove that the old slaves are very discerning.
But another reason, and even more important, was that he believed that allowing Dorgon to succeed him would save him a lot of strife and trouble.
This is because Dolgon's mother was the concubine of Nuer Hachi at that time, which was equivalent to the queen of the Central Plains Dynasty.
Let the queen's concubine inherit his throne, in his opinion, this is not only in line with the long-standing rules, but also can avoid the other dozen sons fighting openly and secretly.
After all, at that time, the concubines who were married to the Ming media before Nuer Hachi were all dead, and as far as the patriarchal system is concerned, the three brothers of Dolgon, who were the sons of the concubines at the time, were undisputed sons-in-law.
Except for these few people, he can't choose anyone else.
To say that the old slave slave Hachi is indeed a lot of good fortune in this life, and he has married four concubines, that is, the wife and concubine of the right brand.
The first concubine was Tong Jia, who gave birth to two sons-in-law, Chu Ying and Dai Shan.
Of course, if he chooses to do good, there will be no controversy.
Because Dai Shan is the son of the first concubine of Nuer Hachi, he can be regarded as a concubine, and at the same time, after Chu Ying's death, Dai Shan also became the eldest son of the old slave in the world, of course, there is no dispute.
However, Dai Shan himself was not angry, and committed adultery with his stepmother, which made Nuer Hachi angry and ashamed, not only abolished the concubine at that time, but also dispelled the idea of letting Dai Shan inherit the throne.
After that, the other older sons couldn't get into his consideration.
Although Mang Gurtai's mother was the eldest concubine Fucha who married Nuer Hachi after Tong Jia's death, it was this Fucha clan who committed adultery with Daishan.
Although Mang Gurtai is his son-in-law, his mother has been deposed, so naturally he cannot be allowed to succeed to the throne.
The situation of the Derge class is the same as that of Mang Gurtai, although he is the son-in-law born after the Fucha clan and Nuer Hachi, but his mother was deposed for adultery, and he naturally has no chance.
The rest is Huang Taiji, because Huang Taiji's mother is the second wife of Nuer Hachi, Yehenara.
However, this Yehenara clan married the slave Hachi unwillingly, and was forced to marry an old slave who was dozens of years older than him, so after giving birth to Huang Taiji, he died of illness not long after he was young.
Next, after Nuer Hachi annexed the Ula Department of the Haixi Jurchens, as a political marriage for the annexation of the Haixi Jurchens, he married the beautiful Wulanala clan of the Haixi Jurchens, that is, the fourth concubine Abahai who was later supported as the main family.
This Ulanala clan later bore three sons to Nuerhachi, the brothers Azig, Dorgon, and Dordor.
Within a few years of Ulanala marrying Nuer Hachi, Huang Taiji's biological mother, Yehenara, died, and Ulanala Abahai was made the new concubine.
When Azig was born, his mother Abahai was still a side concubine, and although after his mother became a concubine, he also became a concubine, but his status was slightly inferior to that of his two younger brothers, namely Dorgon and Dodor.
In this way, there are only a few sons in law who have the qualifications to inherit the throne after Nuer Hachi's death.
If Dai Shan, Mang Gurtai, and Derge can't do it, then Huang Taiji can't say it's okay.
Because of the scandal of Daishan and Fucha's adultery, within the upper Jurchen class, only a very few people such as Nuer Hachi knew about it.
Therefore, the public reason for Fucha's deposition was not adultery, but that she was jealous and greedy.
Therefore, if Nuer Hachi let Huang Taiji succeed to the throne, then why can't the two sisters-in-law of Daishan and Mang Gurtai?
In terms of age, the two of them are older than Huang Taiji, which can be regarded as an orderly young age.
In terms of merit, one of the two of them was awarded the Great Baylor for merit, and the other was awarded the Third Baylor for merit, which is more convincing than Huang Taiji's four Baylor.
