7-17 Once Upon a Time in Beijing
Since the Qing army was driven north of the Yellow River last spring, the Line of Actual Control between the two countries has been bounded by the Yellow River, and no one has been able to move forward, just as the Ming Dynasty's Donglin Party and Liu Ziguang were busy carrying out a coup d'état to overthrow the Eunuch Party's rule, and the same story was playing out in distant Beijing.
Since the death of Prince Rui and regent Dolgon, the actual ruling power of the Qing Dynasty has fallen into the hands of Aobai, and the remnants of the failed southern expedition are still a powerful military force.
The court openly brought a sword to see the emperor, not only did not kneel down, but also asked Xiao Kangxi to call himself his uncle. Xiao Kangxi's name is Aixin Jueluo.
Xuan Ye is the son of Emperor Fu Lin of Shunzhi, the grandson of Huang Taiji and Dolgon, of course, his own grandfather is Prince Rui, only eleven years old Xuan Ye is far more intelligent and mature than his peers, under the teaching of the imperial grandmother Empress Dowager Da Yu'er, at a young age, he is familiar with poetry and books, and the study of Han culture is very thorough, which is by no means comparable to those elders who have only read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
When it comes to the education of Kangxi, it is impossible not to mention his grandmother, a woman who can be called the mother of the Qing Dynasty, but she is an authentic Mongolian, with the surname Borzigit, the name Bumu Butai, and the nickname Da Yuer.
She was the daughter of Bel Zhaisang of the Horqin Department of Mongolia when she was thirteen years old, and she married the Houjin who rose in the white mountains and black waters as a link of political marriage
"Wise Khan" Nurhachi's son Huang Taiji is his wife. For Huang Taiji, who is twenty years older than herself, of course there will be no love, since she got married, she fell in love with the little uncle of the same age, Dolgon, but as a woman in the political whirlpool, she has no right to choose love, can only endure humiliation, sacrifice personal happiness for the hegemony of her husband, of course, this does not prevent him from privately contacting Dolgon, Fulin is actually Dolgon's own son, the matter is clear, fortunately, the heroic nation between the white mountains and black water does not care about these Han people, the so-called Lunchang Da Yuer married Huang Taiji, when Huang Taiji married Huang Taiji, and later married her sister Hai Lanzhu, it can be said that the three aunts and nephews serve one husband。
Huang Taiji didn't take Da Yuer too seriously at that time, and often sent young and beautiful her to engage in some seductive work, it is said that after the Ming general Hong Chengfei was captured, he was very stubborn and unwilling to surrender, and then Da Yuer entered the prison room and accompanied Hong Chengyu for one night, and Lord Hong was only a plaything sent by the Manchu Dynasty.
Unceremoniously enjoyed it, and said that what should be eaten, what should be eaten, what should be played, and surrender is absolutely impossible. Early the next morning, Da Yu'er changed into the imperial concubine's formal clothes, and once again accompanied Huang Taiji to persuade him to surrender, this time the iron-clad Hong Chengyu completely became a finger twister, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty was too particular, and the imperial concubine could give it to herself to play, are you afraid that you will not be kind to yourself in the future?
Lord Hong was deeply impressed by Huang Taiji's strength, and bowed his head on the spot, and since then he has become a loyal lackey of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
(This joke is from a Hong Kong and Taiwan drama I watched when I was a child, it seems to be called a generation of queen Da Yuer, not made up by me) so that Huang Taiji tolerated Da Yu'er and Dolgon's dealings, which also shows that he doesn't care about these vulgar traditions, and it is not a good thing to be able to use one of his many wives to envelop his younger brother who holds military power.
Later, Huang Taiji died suddenly on the way to the south, and the Manchu Qing fell into chaos, Huang Taiji's eldest son, Haoge, Huang Taiji's brother Dai Shan, Dolgon, Azig, Duoduo and others all had the strength to take over as emperor.
In this incident, it once again showed that Da Yuer took care of the overall situation, she did not blindly help her lover Dolgon to become the emperor for love, but let Huang Taiji's nominal son Fulin ascend the throne in order to ensure the legitimacy of the Qing Dynasty, fortunately, Dolgon is also a person who values love and righteousness, and does not care about the emperor's false name, and he is satisfied with being a regent of the imperial father.
In the successes of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, she gradually became involved in the whirlpool of political struggles one after another, and displayed her outstanding political talent, gradually establishing a solid position and becoming a prominent figure in the political arena of the early Qing Dynasty.
Ao Bai dictatorship, as the emperor's grandmother, Da Yu'er naturally would not sit idly by, she helped her grandson form a small team, which was composed of all young Manchu and Han elites, Jiang Xu, Suo Etu, Nalan Mingzhu and others were all important members.
After the failure of the second southern expedition, according to Dolgon's will, Ao Bai took over as the owner of the white flag, and the white flag and the yellow and yellow flags are the same as the three banners directly under the royal family, Ao Bai sent the white flag to take over the security work of the palace in the name of the name, and he took on the role of Gu Ming, the ministers all said that power can make people degenerate, and Ao Bai was no exception, and he was no longer the hot-blooded general who mastered the military and political power, but exposed his tyrannical and tyrannical nature, bullying the emperor at a young age, ignorant and widely planting party henchmen, excluding dissidents, and taking over the government as if he was the regent again.
Ao Bai was born in the army, and was very unsuitable for the Shunzhi Dynasty to absorb Han culture and change the ritual system, and once the dynasty was in power, he ordered everything to follow the ancestral system and restore the old chapter, and openly broke the ban on Shunzhi no longer trapped in the land for four years, and took the opportunity of the exchange of flags and land to expand the enclosure and displace a large number of peasants.
This perverse behavior of Ao worship has aroused the dissatisfaction of the government and the opposition, but most people are afraid of the obscenity of Ao Bai and do not dare to speak out.
The existence of the turtle worship has become a threat to the emperor's authority, but the wings of the turtle worship have been established, and the slightest inappropriate position may lead to a great change.
How to solve this problem? At this time, Da Yu'er already had considerable experience with these problems. She quietly cared for her impatient grandson, asking him to endure everything and arrange it without revealing a trace.
At the suggestion of Jiang Xu, Mingzhu and others, a group of thirteen or fourteen-year-old clan children were recruited in the palace to accompany Kangxi to read and play every day, and these teenagers practiced Buku opera in their spare time, and it was completely understandable that teenagers liked to play this kind of wrestling game, so no one thought much about it.
Just when everyone was accustomed to the court buku play; One day in the autumn of the first year of Kangxi, the emperor Xuanao worshiped and entered the palace, saw Aobai, held his own palace guards, and came to the emperor's imperial study without care, and the young people who had been ambushed around suddenly swarmed and caught him.
Aobai was captured, the Empress Dowager urgently dispatched the Fengtai battalion's Zhenghongqi and Zhenglanqi troops into Beijing, and the Zhenghuang Banner and the Yellow Banner and the Yellow Banner were under control of the capital.
The fall of the Aobai group and the wise leadership of the Empress Dowager, the wisdom and courage of the little emperor Kangxi, the loyal assistance of the young Manchu and Han officials, In order to commend these young people, but also to build a perfect and efficient official system for their grandchildren, the Empress Dowager put these energetic young people in a high position to exercise, Jiang Xu was at the age of twenty-five years old to serve as the Ministry of Rites, this group of young people brought a fresh breath to the Manchu regime in Beijing, the advanced Han culture was absorbed, the use of the excellent traditions of the Manchus was also preserved, the Han culture is too broad and profound, literature, economy, science, all kinds of civilization can not be learned in the simple Tungusic language, so the Manchu rulers simply gave up the Manchu language to learn Chinese, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has been in charge of Beijing for ten years, most of the ManchusThe tribesmen learned Chinese, a language with a Guanwai accent that blended with dialects from the vicinity of Beijing, forming the official dialect under Manchu rule and the Jianghuai official dialect of Nanjing.
With the assistance of this group of elites, Xiao Kangxi reduced the oppression of the Han people, in addition to forcing them to shave and change clothes, and tried to do things that could eliminate ethnic contradictions, such as allowing Manchu and Han intermarriages, enabling more Han officials, and commending Han heroes such as Yue Fei and Wen Tianxiang, so as to show the magnanimity and understanding of the Manchu rulers.
Jiang Xu, as the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, launched his research results for many years at this time, he declared that the Manchu and Han are by no means enemies, but fraternal people, the Han people of the Central Plains farming culture are docile sheep, the younger brother is the nomadic culture of the north, the so-called Tartar in the West is a strong and fierce wolf, it is a normal thing for the elder brother to have some friction between the elder brothers, and it is this kind of elder brother bullying the younger brother that has tempered the weak Han nation, so that the Han culture will not die out, this is definitely not an invasion, but a blood transfusion, from the Qin and Han dynasties to the Wuhu Chaohua, and then to the iron hooves of the Mongols all over the country, and then to today, the Manchu Qing Dynasty is in charge of the Central Plains, all of which are blood transfusions for the Han peopleIf it weren't for the help of their brothers, the Han people would have degenerated into an inferior nation, how could there be so many Ming literary masterpieces.
All thanks to the wolf culture of the nomads. The terrible lie often lies in the fact that he sounds like he is real, under the vigorous promotion of the Manchu Ministry of Rites, this kind of wolf and sheep is actually accepted by many northern scholars, who naively think that if they also learn the wolf nature, they will be on an equal footing with the ruler, Jiang Xu's writings even spread to the Southern Ming Dynasty, widely circulated among the scholars, this kind of deviant but seems to be a bit crooked argument for everyone to talk about, Jiang Xu seems to have become a generation of thinkers, it is because of this that the Manchu court will send him as an envoy to Nanjing to discuss and discuss peace affairs.
