H2> Yongfu Palace, which closed its doors and windows, was hot and dry, but the three people in the deep pavilion of the palace were suddenly unaware. Yongfu Palace Borzigit, also known as Concubine Zhuang, is now less than thirty years old, dressed in a light blue Luo yarn flag suit, because of the production, so the body is slightly plump, showing a special charm.

Su Mo'er, a personal female officer, gently shook a long-handled sandalwood paper fan to cool off Concubine Zhuang, and after a while, the whole room was filled with a faint fragrance.

A person kneeling in front of Concubine Zhuang already had a cup of tea, but Concubine Zhuang in front of him seemed to be in deep thought, so she forgot to let the person stand up and reply. And the man did not move, always bowing his head, and knelt respectfully on the ground.

After a long time, Concubine Zhuang put the string of Buddha beads in her hand that had been played with on the table beside her, and then sighed slowly, "So, my sister's body is really good?" ”

The man nodded: "The news that Yuan Zhong came back shouldn't be wrong, but he didn't see Concubine Chen with his own eyes!" ”

Su Mo'er sent a bowl of herbal tea to Concubine Zhuang, "The master has been going to Guanju Palace to visit him for several days these days, but he has been stopped, it seems that the emperor has already explained before he set out on the expedition, and he will not let Concubine Chen see outsiders!" ”

Concubine Zhuang raised her head inadvertently, and touched Su Mo'er's eyes, Su Mo'er suddenly understood, took out a small cloth bag, and handed it to the kneeling man.

The man was suddenly a little frightened, and looked at Concubine Zhuang at a loss, and Concubine Zhuang lightly opened her lips, "Take it, you can do it well, you deserve it." I also have to bother you to go out of the palace, inform the thirteenth master's Fujin, the emperor has arranged the affairs in the palace, let's do our part. ”

The man then took the cloth bag, kowtowed, and withdrew.

"Master, why did you drive this person away, this is the manpower that the thirteenth and fourteenth masters have prepared for you in the palace, and now this situation is just right to use it......!"

Suddenly, there was a bright cry on the bed, but it was Brother Jiu Fulin who suddenly woke up. Concubine Zhuang and Su Mo'er hurriedly got up, came to the bed, and gently picked up Fu Lin, but Fu Lin's eyes did not open, and he cried for a while, but he put his head on Concubine Zhuang's shoulder and fell asleep.

When Fu Lin fell asleep, Concubine Zhuang put him back on the bed. Looking at her son's sleeping face, Concubine Zhuang couldn't help but have mixed feelings.

In the tenth year of the Mandate of Heaven, that is, in the fifth year of the Great Tomorrow Apocalypse, the thirteen-year-old Concubine Zhuang came to Shengjing under the escort of her brother Wu Keshan and married Huang Taiji, who was still the fourth Belle at the time. At that time, Huang Taiji was thirty-four years old, twenty-one years older than Concubine Zhuang, and his wife was still Concubine Zhuang's aunt, Zhezhe, the daughter of Mang Gusi.

Counting, since then, Concubine Zhuang has been in Shengjing for fifteen years. It was also in these fifteen years that Concubine Zhuang saw the continuous growth and rise of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and also watched her husband complete the perfect transformation from Baylor to the emperor.

However, what started as affection eventually turned into today's coldness and resistance. This qiē started when his sister Hai Lanzhu came to Shengjing. In the eighth year of Tiancong and the seventh year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, Mao Qitate, the uncle of Lin Dan Khan of the Chahar Department, surrendered to the Horqin Department, and then expressed his intention to take refuge in Huang Taiji. As the leader of Monan, in order to promote this alliance, the Horqin Department specially sent Hai Lanzhu to Shengjing and took Huang Taiji as a concubine.

But this qiē was the beginning of Concubine Zhuang's nightmare. From the day Hai Lanzhu entered the palace, Huang Taiji transferred all his feelings and attention to her alone. Although Hai Lanzhu does not have the youth and beauty of Da Yu'er, she has a gentleness and grace that Manmeng women do not have, and she is lovely.

The husband and wife affection and tacit understanding that Da Yu'er and Huang Taiji have easily accumulated over the years collapsed lightly in front of Hai Lanzhu. Huang Taiji began to be jealous of Da Yu'er's intelligence, but he was even more afraid of rumors that she and Dolgon had a relationship. In this situation, Huang Taiji gradually began to become cold and even repulsive towards Da Yu'er, and this affection even spread to the body of Nine Elder Brother Fulin.

Hai Lanzhu's eighth elder brother was just born, and Huang Taiji couldn't wait to canonize him as the crown prince, after that, the eighth elder brother died, and Huang Taiji was even more grief-stricken, and he never established a prince again, even if there were already a large number of suitable candidates such as Haoge around him. He is waiting, waiting for Hai Lanzhu to give birth to Lin'er for him again.

All of this has forced Concubine Zhuang Da Yu'er to start planning a way out for herself, and even for her son Fulin. This is for survival, but also for the continuation of life. It is precisely because of this that Da Yuer accidentally discovered that her first love Dolgon, who still maintains her fiery feelings for herself to this day, which makes Da Yuer's heart pound.

Gently stroking Fulin's silky face, Da Yu'er's eyes gradually became cold and firm, and the outline of the desire in her heart gradually became clear.

"You can't let Dorgon's people get involved in this matter, and the more people who know about it, the more dangerous it is. For now, we have to do it ourselves. You will go and see Yuan Zhong in person, although he can't enter the Guan Ju Palace, but who is qualified to enter the palace, he should be clear, get a detailed list. ”

……

In April, Dolgon had already led the two white and two blue banners to attack the Jinzhou front, but the progress did not go well. In the early years, in the Kou Pass, Hebei Julu fought a battle, all the eight banners were killed and wounded, and the newly recruited soldiers did not fight in battle, and the combat power of the eight banners, including the eight banners of the Han army, inevitably declined. In addition, on the front line of Jinzhou, successive generations of Ming governors and governors did their best to consolidate their operations, so the offensive momentum of the Manchu army was repeatedly frustrated.

However, due to the fact that the strategy had been decided, and Dolgon did not have the right to arbitrarily make decisions on the spot, he could only blindly fight hard with the Ming army. Huang Taiji's strategy was to storm Jinzhou and attract Hong Chengchou's army to come to help, taking this as an opportunity to make full use of the shortcomings of the Ming army's poor field warfare and defeat the Ming army in one fell swoop.

But no one thought that the battle had just begun, and the war in Jinzhou had fallen into a stalemate. Although the Qing army once reached the top of Jinzhou City, the counterattack of the Ming army was exceptionally rapid. The Qing army was the vanguard of the city, and Mu Husa, the secretary of the Zhenghuang Banner Armed Forces, Jue Luolantai, and the commander of the guard, Hongke, were killed in battle, and the Qing army collapsed and had to retreat from the city.

In May, under the repeated persecution of Chen Xinjia and Emperor Chongzhen of the Ministry of War, and most importantly, under the strong financial pressure, Hong Chengchou had to lead an army of 60,000 to reinforce the Jinzhou front.

This surprised Dolgon and Huang Taiji, who was still far away in Shengjing at the time, but a series of terrifying news followed.

The North Korean side first moved, since the coup d'état in Hanyang, the pro-Qing officials were purged, and even the attitude of the Korean royal family towards the Manchus has taken a 180-degree turn. The king of Joseon, Li Liang, only perfunctorily provided the Qing army with 10,000 quintals of old grain, and the so-called Korean army that helped the war did not even see a shadow. On the contrary, it gathered troops in the area of Yiju, which had the intention of guarding against the eastward advance of the British Ordai.

Then there was the Phi Dao, where the Manchus had received news that the Franc Merchant Group had joined forces with pirates to occupy Phi Dao as a transit for goods from Korea and Shandong. Unexpectedly, when the Ningjin War began, Phi Dao was a large-scale boat division, frequently attacking and harassing the line from Jiulian City to Donggou, forcing Ying Ordai to be cautious and tired of coping.

Huang Taiji originally wanted to reason with the Buddha Lang Jiren, but he couldn't find any way at all, so he had to order Ning Wan and me to use the Fan family's trade routes to start getting in touch with these Western barbarians, but this would take a long time to complete.

And at this time, there was news that the battle on the Ningjin front line was unfavorable, and Hong Chengchou swallowed troops in Songshan Beigang, step by step, and repeatedly repelled the Qing army's offensive with firearms. Prince Zheng's right-wing army suffered a great defeat, and even the camp with the blue flag was occupied by the Ming army. Many generals and colonels such as the cavalry commander Dandai, the staff leader Zhangkuchan, and the third-class guard Bo Xiangdai were killed in battle, and the third-class baron with the red flag and the Manchu Baturu Lausa were all killed by the Ming army.

In this case, although Dolgon has not spoken, Zilharang and the others have already complained bitterly, and they have frequently asked Huang Taiji for help in private. Huang Taiji knew that this Ningjin War was a key battle related to whether the Manchus could unify Liaodong Guanwai, but when it came to the end, he was in a dilemma. Rescue Ning Jin, but I am afraid that there will be changes in North Korea and Phi Dao, and someone will copy the old nest, if you don't rescue, you really don't have a bottom in your heart. Now the 90,000 troops gathered on the front line of Ningjin are the soldiers and horses put together by the Manchu Qing Dynasty with the strength of the whole country, in case of accidents, not to mention Ningjin, even the current situation may be lost.

After weighing the pros and cons, Huang Taiji still decided to grit his teeth and piece together 10,000 elites to aid Ningjin, including part of Shengjing's garrison, appointing Sony as the prime minister, sticking to Shengjing, and if necessary, withdrawing Yingordai's men and horses to Shengjing's first-line defense.

At this time, Concubine Chen's condition also improved greatly, and Huang Taiji finally dispelled the haze shrouded in his heart, and led his soldiers and horses to set off in mid-June, driving directly to the front line of Ningjin. Accompanying him to the front line was all the artillery units of the Han Army's Banner Wuzhen Chaoha. In the battle of Hebei, the right wing army of Wuzhen Chaoha was safely annihilated by Zhu Ping, and the main general Ma Guangyuan was awarded the head, and this time it was the commander of Wuzhen Chaoha who followed the expedition - the veteran Shi Tingzhu, and there were two hundred magic cannons under his command.

Huang Taiji has not been personally recruited for many years, in the past two years, because of the death of Concubine Chen's son and Concubine Chen's body, he has been exhausted, therefore, he felt unwell soon after departure, and spit blood in his mouth when camping in the field at night, but the news was firmly blocked.

Despite this, Huang Taiji knew the significance of the First Battle of Ningjin to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so regardless of physical fatigue and illness, he traveled more than 500 miles day and night and rushed to Qijiabao in the north of Jinzhou City.

As soon as he arrived, he urgently summoned Dolgon, Haug, Dordor, Azig, Zilharang and other important generals to the imperial camp to meet them.

Hauge was stunned when he got the news. At the time of the earlier expedition, Concubine Chen's illness was still serious, so Hauge expected that his father Khan might not be able to take the expedition in person. But at this time, Huang Taiji appeared here unconsciously, and Hao Ge couldn't help but raise his head and looked at He Luohui who was standing not far from him with great meaning.

At this time, He Luohui was also looking at Haoge with blazing eyes, and his eyes were full of excitement.

But Hauge didn't speak, just shook his head slightly, and strode out of the account randomly.

The flame in He Luohui's eyes was suddenly extinguished, his disappointed expression hung all over his cheeks, and he didn't pay attention to anyone anymore, but walked directly out of the tent. R1152
