209 Hateful Gold Thread (6)
"When the Nine Kings heard that China was sitting empty, within a few days, they hurriedly gathered their troops and horses. Men under the age of 70 and over the age of 10 are all members of the army. The verdict of success or failure is in one fell swoop. ”
Choi Jun-eun finished writing, put down the pen, and rubbed his fingers that were red from the cold. He read it and made sure that there were no missing words, so he folded the letter, sealed it, and called to his subordinates: "Send it back to Hanyang (Seoul) quickly, and don't delay." As an envoy sent to Shenyang by Joseon, he naturally had to send it back to his country as soon as possible when there was something in the Qing Dynasty, so that the king could learn about it.
As a courtier of the Lee family, Choi Jun-eun, who was born in two classes, was full of contempt for the Manchurians. This kind of barbarian tribe with shaved hair and rat tail actually conquered Korea, a small China in the northeast that has long been immersed in Chinese civilization, by force, and became the suzerainty of Korea! However, today's Ming Dynasty is also stormy, and I heard that it was also attacked by thieves in Shenjing, which is really bleak!
Thinking that although North Korea has changed its suzerain, its own social system has not been severed, which makes Choi Junen inevitably a little lucky. He knew that the Han people in the north had to shave their hair, and they looked ugly and forgot their ancestors. I am afraid that if these Manchurians occupy the land of the Ming Kingdom, they will continue to implement this evil government.
On the ninth day of the fourth month of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Dolgon, the regent of the Qing Dynasty, led two of the three Manchurian and Mongol soldiers, as well as the Han army to obey the three kings and continue to shun the Gongqu, and set off with cannons.
Hong Chengchou was riding on a horse, wearing a Manchu official robe, but his mood was extremely complicated. Although the current situation is completely in line with his assertion in front of the former emperor Huang Taiji: the Ming Dynasty can't hold on for long, but this does not make him the slightest excited.
"Bachelor, the prince is invited." Bai Jia in front of Dolgon personally came to invite Hong Chengchou.
Hong Chengchou rode out of the entourage and followed the white armor to the royal banner of Dolgon, and saluted according to Manchurian customs.
Dolgon is now Chinese New Year's Eve and is also heroic on horseback. He has a big beard and a lion's nose and thin eyes. It seems to be stupid, but it is famous for its wisdom. In his early years, he was named the young man of Morgan, which is the meaning of "wise king" and the origin of "Prince Rui".
"Mr. Hong." Dolgon spoke Chinese, with a slightly strange tone, and was also a top figure among the Manchurian aristocracy. He beckoned Hong Chengchou to ride with him. Extremely courteous: "Look. ”
Hong Chengchou took a copy of the book from Dolgon's hand, sat on his horse and flipped through it, it turned out to be Fan Wencheng's note to the regent kings. Also as Hanchen, Fan Wencheng is also known for his well-informed and far-sighted vision. However, the words of this student are still too vulgar and negligent in the eyes of Ming Jinshi like Hong Chengchou.
"Those who steal and achieve great deeds to retire for eternity are at this time, and those who lose the opportunity and regret the future are also at this time." The mark that Dolgon carved with his fingernails next to this sentence was obviously in agreement.
Dolgon laughed, "The so-called heroes see the same thing. Mr. Fan and Mr. Hong are truly heroes. He opened his mouth and spewed out a puff of white mist, which rose suddenly.
The early spring in the north is still the season when the water turns into ice.
"Mr. Fan's vision is beyond the reach of his ministers." Hong Chengchou responded. He and Fan Wencheng were not as close to each other as the Manchurians thought, nor would they be grateful for Fan Wencheng's surrender to him. In fact, he was full of disdain and contempt for Fan Wencheng.
"Mr. Hong," said Dolgon, "the first emperor once said: Sir is indeed my guide to Manchuria. This time, I will raise the whole clan and listen to the advice of the gentleman. Sending troops to the western kingdom can really establish an immortal foundation? ”
Hong Chengchou said respectfully: "Lord Wang." Now that the rogues occupy Beijing, their foothold is not stable, and they are tired soldiers. Our army broke through the border wall from Jizhou and Miyun to avoid the Dunbing Mountain Pass under the fortified city, although it was also a guest army, it could be regarded as a surprise. Catch somebody off his guard.
"Moreover, Zhu Ming's three hundred years of society, how can people's hearts change once? The people are bitter and the Zhu clan is added, so don't they suffer from thieves and plunder? As long as we restrain military discipline and do not slaughter the people, we will not slaughter the people. Do not burn the house, do not plunder the property, the army and the people did not commit any crimes, and under the banner of 'exterminating thieves for the Ming Chamber', they can naturally borrow the hearts of the people. ”
Dolgon puffed a vapor mist and said, "This king has decreed that anyone who resists will be killed, and no one else shall be killed!" If anyone in the army violates my commands, he will not be forgiven. But Mr. Hong, if we take Beijing, can we really hold it? ”
"I can't hold it." Hong Chengchou said without hesitation: "So you have to attack." ”
"Attack?"
"Just as Qin lost his deer, Chu and Han chased it. I am speaking to help Ming, but in fact, I want to compete with Ming for this world. However, although it competed with the Ming Dynasty for the world, it was actually wrestling with the Liukou. Hong Chengchou's words were full of ups and downs, and he turned two corners, and I am afraid that he will no longer understand Manchurian Baylor. Thanks to Dolgon's wisdom and wisdom, he figured out most of it after a little thought in his head.
"Therefore, our army occupies Beijing, and we must spare no effort to exterminate the Liukou, which is the first step." Hong Chengchou Qu said: "As soon as the Liukou is destroyed, there will be no more soldiers in China who rebel against our dynasty, and our army will welcome Emperor Ming back to the dynasty." This is the second step. As for the third step, the minister thought that Emperor Ming would be very ashamed when he saw that my Qing Dynasty was magnificent and the army was strong, and he would give the emperor the throne to my emperor and raise all the people in the world for his Zhu family. ”
Dorgon's blood boiled when he heard this, and he spat out white mist again and again, and said excitedly: "Sir is indeed my Manchurian guide!" In the future, Mr. will inevitably be the first meritorious minister! ”
Hong Chengchou was the strategy of the seven provinces in the Ming Dynasty, Songshan was defeated, and the "news of death" reached Beijing. Emperor Chongzhen for him to strike the dynasty for three days, with the princely regulations to sacrifice sixteen altars, personally sacrificed, but also the imperial "mourning Hong Sutra Brief text" Ming Ming world. Whether it is the trust in front of him or the grief after death, the Ming family will never live up to Hong Chengchou.
After the Qing Dynasty, Hong Chengchou was the first Hanchen scholar, ranking first among all Hanchens, and even Manchu ministers may not be able to compare with him. Whether it is Huang Taiji or Dolgon, they are also extremely courteous to Hong Chengchou and treat him like an emperor. For Hong Chengchou, who is already a supreme minister, the most important thing is the name behind him.
Zi said: The gentleman is sick and unworthy of his name.
Hong Chengchou is already famous in the world, and no one in the world knows it, no one knows it, and no one even scolds it. If you want to avoid being cast into an iron statue and leaving a stench for 10,000 years, there is only one way: help the Manchu Qing Dynasty win the world!
Since ancient times, as long as the Manchu Qing Dynasty has the orthodoxy of the world, he is the minister of Longxing, the founder of the Manchu and Han families, and to scold him is to insult the dynasty and be a traitor! He will only be praised and will never be nailed to the pillar of shame.
"It's all thanks to the king's cultivation." Hong Chengchou replied calmly.
Dolgon's eyes were like slits, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, as if he had seen the great country of the Ming Kingdom beckoning to him. He read all the books, and admired the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River very much, and he couldn't wait to have wings and fly all the way over.
……
In April of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Laizhou, Shandong.
The original palace has been changed to the emperor's palace, although it has not been explicitly announced to the world, but the brocade guard guarding the door seems to have explained something. Because of the haste of the incident and the need to restore the country thriftily, a large number of materials were sent to the Dengzhou and Lexia defense lines, and the government did not expand at all, but just bought the surrounding houses, broke the wall and opened the door, and settled the concubines in the palace.
"At that time, my family was poor, and Suzhou was a place to burn cinnamon and jade. Your grandfather took me north to Beijing to join my family. He didn't get it for a while, so he went to the street to sell hexagrams, and after selling the money, he bought cooking cakes and came back to eat with me, and if he couldn't sell them, only the father and daughter were hungry......" Queen Zhou said this, sobbing unspeakably, tears falling from tears.
The eldest daughter, Zhu Yujiao, sat on the edge of the bed, holding a piece of brocade with a hairy edge in her hand, wiping her tears for her mother, and her nose and eyes were red, obviously crying a lot. Zhu Cihong was urgently recruited back to Laizhou by his mother, and thought that something big had happened, but it turned out that his mother had received news from Jingshi, saying that Li Zicheng had killed Jiading Bo Zhou Kui - that is, Zhu Cihong's maternal grandfather.
As soon as she enters the heavenly family, there are monarchs and ministers, and Queen Zhou, as the mother of the country, can't even cry bitterly for her father. People can be ruthless without grass and trees, and after a week, they finally suffered in their hearts and fell seriously ill. Although Empress Zhang and Concubine Yuan often came to see her, only her own children could really stay by her side to relieve her.
Cijiong and Cijiong accompanied him for most of the day, and were called to class by the eunuchs. She was fine, so she accompanied her and listened to her mother talk about the embarrassment of the foreign family back then.
Zhu Cihong already knew before he came in that Li Zicheng had raised 100,000 troops and drove to Shanhaiguan. I also knew that these 100,000 were all the troops near Beijing, but I didn't expect that Li Zicheng was afraid that the Ming nobles would cause chaos behind him because of the emptiness in Beijing, and killed many people - Jiading Bo Zhou Kui was one of them.
Zhu Cihong thought that Li Zicheng had changed his habit of killing innocents indiscriminately, but he didn't expect to relapse into his old ways. Thinking of Li Zicheng's defeat in the original historical script, it seems now that this is indeed a sign of defeat that he cannot return to the throne.
"This time, the thief recovered 530,000 taels of silver from Jiadingbo." Zhu Cihong said lightly.
Zhou Hou's crying voice suddenly choked, and she looked at her son: "Who is this nonsense!" ”
"It's my son's eyeliner in Beijing, and it won't be fake." Zhu Cihong slowed down and said: "My son also heard that the father and the emperor persuaded the noble relatives to donate that day, and the queen mother secretly gave it to Jiading Bo with 5,00......0 taels of her own money."
"Your grandfather came to the palace several times to cry to me, but I only said that there was really no money left at home, so I asked him to donate this silver...... Where did you think that it would be ......, "Queen Zhou was surprised, and there was no language to describe the "500,000 taels" for a while!
"Jiading Bo took 5,000 taels from the queen mother, and only donated 3,000 taels." Zhu Cihong's voice was calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him: "There are still two thousand taels of silver, and now it is among the five or thirty thousand taels." ”
Queen Zhou couldn't say a word, although the sorrow in her heart was diluted a lot in an instant, but her chest became more stuffy, and her whole body seemed to be emptied. Just now, I was thinking about my father's nurturing grace when my family was poor, but now it has become a resentment against my father's inability to be loyal to the country.
"Queen Mother, if there is nothing to do, the son-in-law will retire first." Zhu Cihong relieved the queen mother, and was quite satisfied with his achievements, got up and saluted, and said to Zhu Yujiao: "Kunxing, let the queen mother rest quietly for a while, you come with me." ”
Zhu Yujiao looked at her mother, saw that her mother nodded slightly, left the brocade beside the bed, got up and saluted and left. (To be continued......)
