Chapter 54: Burning the Temple

By now, the Manchu court has been full of suspicion and hatred, for Dolgon, Emperor Shunzhi hated him to the core, and for his mother Da Yuer, Emperor Shunzhi was full of suspicion. In his opinion, the current Dolgon is completely Chang Yu and Zhao Ji who caused trouble in the harem of the Qin Dynasty back then, and they have been in the same boat, wanting to seize his world and the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, no matter how painstakingly Da Yu'er advised, explained, and cried, Emperor Shunzhi thought that his mother had ill intentions and could never be trusted, and even Sony, Suke Saha, and Suppilon made him suspicious.

Under Yue Le's persuasion, Shunzhi Emperor Fulin had decided to give it a go, go all out to deal with Dorgon, and take back the power that should have belonged to him. Especially at this critical moment of national disaster, Shunzhi has no patience to wait.

While reassuring her son, Da Yu'er was worried about the current situation in her reign, and in order to quickly turn the situation around and settle down, she once again chose to back down and support Dorgon's request. There was no way around it, and she had no choice but Dolgon.

Early in the morning of June 18, news came out in the palace that Dolgon had been named "regent of the imperial father", and the government and the opposition were in an uproar. Although Manchuria did not attach much importance to the remarriage of widows, the fact that the matter involved the Empress Dowager and Dorgon was somewhat unusual. The word "imperial father" is intriguing, that is, once this honorific title is determined, Dolgon and Da Yuer have the name of husband and wife, and Emperor Shunzhi also has the name of father and son.

Although the title of "Imperial Father Regent" is a bit awkward, it accurately expresses a meaning, Dolgon wants to be the "Emperor" of the Qing Dynasty!

While the ministers were in an uproar, they were also thinking about a question, whether the Qing Dynasty was going to change the sky. These days, there have been quite a few Han officials and Han generals who have abandoned their official positions and left. The Ming army is pressing step by step, this Daqing is about to follow in the footsteps of Dashun, no one has been able to guide, this Ming Dynasty, which is about to decline, has eased this breath and become extremely strong again, which makes many demoted officials regret their bowels. Even many Mongol princes who followed the Dolgon brothers on their southern expedition were moved. One by one, they are angry with the Qing Dynasty and mourn their misfortunes, and they are all like arrows, and they can't let Li Dingguo and the Chahar Department sweep away the old nests of all the tribes in Southern Mongolia!

Regarding the promotion of the "Imperial Father Regent" except for the holy decree, everything is extremely low-key, whether Dolgon and Da Yu'er are really married, even many Jueluo families who are close to the royal family do not know, and the people in the clan are even more silent, lest they get into trouble.

Dolgon's marriage to Da Yu'er finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish. Allowing the fire in the backyard of his home, his wife and concubine wanted to die or live, but he didn't care about it completely. Married to Da Yu'er, although there was no big deal, several clan elders in the clan, such as Dai Shan and other princes and important ministers, still had to participate. According to the explanation of the so-called "Imperial Father Regent", Dolgon became the father of Emperor Shunzhi and could rightfully live in the Forbidden City. Out of revenge against Huang Taiji, Dolgon also insisted on worshipping the temple.

Rivers and mountains, women. Finally, in his lifetime, he returned to his arms, and the resentment that had been stored in Dorgon's heart for many years was vented at this time. The reason why I want to worship the ancestral temple is tantamount to humiliating Huang Taiji, the soul of the deceased who has been dead for many years.

Early in the morning of the second day of the seventh month, facing the drizzle in summer, Dolgon led a group of his subordinates to go to the Taimiao Temple in the southeast of the Forbidden City with Da Yu'er, Dai Shan, Fan Wencheng, Suo Hai, Sonny and other important ministers. Emperor Shunzhi was so angry with Dorgon's actions that he almost vomited blood, and he didn't want to participate. But under coercion, he could only follow him by the imperial chariot.

It was only a year after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, and as early as when they broke through the pass and went south, Dolgon moved the spiritual positions of Nurhachi and Huang Taiji to Beijing. The distant ancestors of the Aixin Jueluo family, such as Zhaozu, Xingzu, Xianzu and Jingzu, were invited to worship in the temple of Taimiao, and the dormitory is currently only occupied by the tablets of the two emperors, Nurhachi and Huang Taiji.

Although the weather was bad. But Dolgon's interest did not diminish in the slightest, and after getting out of the car, he thoughtfully helped Da Yu'er down. At this time, Dai Shan, Fan Wencheng and others with sad faces were already waiting at the foot of the steps of the Taimiao dormitory.

Dolgon, dressed in a new dragon robe, looked back at the Son of Heaven's Imperial Throne and couldn't help frowning, "What about Your Majesty?" Still won't get out of the car? ”

Ning Wan next to me hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "The regent Rong Yu has sent people to invite him in a row, but when he replied over there, Long live the lord occasionally felt a cold and coughed badly, which was afraid of disturbing the ancestors, so I had to rest for a while and take some decoction before I could get out of the car!" ”

Dolgon snorted coldly, "My Eight Banners stand the world with martial arts, I am young, my body is so weak, how can I ...... in the future!" ”

Da Yu'er on the side sighed lightly, and Dolgon suddenly felt speechless, and coughed twice, "That's it, that's it, let him go!" ”

Today, I came to worship in the Taimiao, everything was deliberately kept low-key, in addition to the guards in the palace, there were not too many guards around Dolgon, Nagu as a henchman around Dolgon, had been promoted to the head of the guards, and when he heard Dolgon say this, he hurriedly waved his hand into the distance, and the sound of silk and bamboo suddenly sounded.

After entering the palace, brushing away the rain from his body, and looking at the high spiritual throne of the emperor, the joy and vigor in Dorgon's heart decreased a lot in an instant. Although he finally defeated Huang Taiji and let him die with hatred, but at this point today, the Qing Dynasty has reached the moment of life and death, and the weight of victory seems to have been reduced a lot.

Dolgon and Da Yu'er bowed respectfully before the shrine of the dormitory, but in their hearts they silently prayed that their father's spirit in heaven would bless Daqing through this crisis. Until the end of the bow, there was never a shadow of Emperor Shunzhi Fulin.

"What about the Emperor? Isn't it child's play to go to the temple to worship the ancestors, so late, where is the consciousness of the son of man? Dolgon could not contain the annoyance in his heart, and stood up and shouted a question.

Yuan Zhong looked at Da Yu'er cautiously, there was no way, so he had to retreat outside to invite the emperor to come, but he hurriedly ran back in less than a cup of tea, "The queen mother, the prince, long live the lord is not above the imperial chariot at all!" ”

Dolgon and Da Yu'er were stunned, Shunzhi Emperor Fulin was not on top of the imperial chariot, "What the hell is going on?" Make it clear! ”

Yuan Zhong knelt in front of the two, "There is only one little eunuch wearing the clothes of the Long Live Lord in the car, saying that he was following the will of the Long Live Lord, and when he set off from the palace, it was like this, and he didn't know where the Long Live Lord was now!" ”

As soon as Yuan Zhong's words came out, Dolgon's face suddenly changed, and there was no need to say anything more at this time, he also knew very well what Emperor Shunzhi Fulin was doing. Unexpectedly, the childish boy before would have the courage and courage to attack him.

"Is this your mother and son's plan?" Dorgon turned slowly, his falcon-like eyes fixed on Da Yu'er.

Da Yu'er's face became extremely pale, but in an instant, a layer of flush surged up, "Hehe, after all, he is the son of Huang Taiji, I didn't expect that my son would have such guts!" ”

"Doesn't he know that the military power of the Qing Dynasty is in my hands, and he is a mantis arm as a car, self-defeating, and self-defeating......!" The sudden change made Dolgon's thoughts a little confused, and his whole person seemed restless.

Da Yu'er smiled miserably, "He hid it from me, which means that he has already made up his mind in his heart, and you must know this in your heart, since this is the case, let's take a look and see what means he has!" ”

Dai Shan, Suo Hai and the others were also dumbfounded, one by one they didn't know what to do, the emperor wanted to kill Dolgon, this kind of battle in the palace, they would rather hide as far away as possible.

The dormitory of the Taimiao became extremely silent for a while, Dolgon and Da Yu'er stopped talking, the sound of heavy breathing was clearly audible, and everyone looked at each other.

And the courtyard of the temple changed at the same time, the miscellaneous servants and palace people who were originally scattered everywhere suddenly waved their swords at Dolgon's personal guards and the palace guards, and the guards were caught off guard, and more than ten people were immediately cut down. And the gates on all sides of the temple were also closed desperately by these miscellaneous servants at the same time. Immediately, footsteps sounded outside the door, and then the men in ambush outside nailed the gate to the table tennis with thick wooden planks.

Then, countless rockets came in from outside the hospital.

Nagu cut down the two assassins and ran into the dormitory covered in blood, "The master retreats quickly, I don't know how many soldiers and horses are ambushed outside, and there are a lot of firewood piled up in the temple, all of which are poured with fire oil and other things, they are going to burn us alive!" ”

Da Yu'er's body trembled, two lines of tears rolled down in an instant, and she muttered to herself: "Retribution, what retribution!" Are you here to avenge your Emperor Amma? ”

"What nonsense!" Dolgon grabbed Da Yu'er's hand, "He wants to kill the two of us, now he is trying to find a way to get out, we can't sit still!" ”

As he spoke, the fire in the courtyard was getting bigger and bigger, and the entire Taimiao's enjoyment hall, dormitory, temple, and divine kitchen were all caught in a sea of fire.

Dai Shan is old, his legs and feet are also inconvenient, one did not pay attention, he was hit by an arrow in the waist and eye, and he went straight into the fire, and shouted loudly, but no one rescued him at all, and after a while, there was no sound.

Fan Wencheng, Suo Hai, Sonny and others hurriedly retreated into the dormitory, loudly begging Da Yu'er, who was stunned, to withdraw quickly, but Da Yu'er was so distraught at this time that she didn't listen to everyone's words at all.

A group of guards suffered heavy casualties under the attack of feather arrows, but they still found a ladder and tried to climb the wall, but as soon as they appeared, they were shot down by a roar of firearms outside the wall, and several lives were taken in vain.

In the middle of summer, in the midst of the fire, several of the old people in the important ministers of the clan could not hold on and passed out, and the rest couldn't help but let out a loud cry of sorrow, shouting blankly words like "Master Kaig". But the feathered arrows outside the wall still kept flying in.

Not a lot of effort, the entire dormitory around has been covered by a sea of fire, from the Ming Dynasty Hongzhi period began to build the Taimiao palace squeaked sound, to noon, finally collapsed. (To be continued......)
