Wu Liangfu was so frightened that his legs weakened, and he knelt down and said, "The slave doesn't dare to say it, and the slave will never say it." ”

Fu Lin kicked him: "Don't shout, hurry up, it's not good for someone to find out." ”

But before Fulin returned to the Qianqing Palace, the people in the palace found that the emperor was gone, and suddenly the people in the entire palace came out to look for the emperor, which naturally alarmed Da Yu'er and Dolgon.

But when Yu'er arrived at the Qianqing Palace, Fulin had already returned, and the eunuch named Wu Liangfu was pressed to the courtyard and beat the board, screaming that the ghost cried wolf, and the people below saw the queen mother frowning and immediately blocked his mouth.

Fu Lin looked at his mother nervously, knowing that he would have to be scolded again tonight, but he also had something unhappy in his heart, who should he tell to?

He saw Dolgon caressing Eniang's cheek, and he saw that Eniang had deceived him.

"Where did you go?" After Da Yu'er was frightened for a while, she naturally calmed down when she saw that her son was safe and sound, "Why don't you take people out generously?" ”

"I heard the voice of the cricket, and I want to find it......" Fu Lin lowered his head, the board was slammed on the flesh, and a muffled sound made his heart tremble, and if he continued to fight, Wu Liangfu would die.

Yu'er raised her hand to signal the torturer to stop, and said to Fu Lin: "If the emperor doesn't care about the lives of the slaves, he can do whatever he wants. But if you don't want someone to die for you, then do anything, even if you like it, think twice. ”

"Yes." Fu Lin replied very perfunctorily, he was in turmoil now, but he couldn't question Eniang in front of so many people why he met with Dolgon in the study late at night, and let Dolgon touch her face.

"Spare him, since he is a person trusted by the emperor, don't take him away, but if you commit it again, you won't be spared." Yu'er ordered someone to loosen Wu Liangfu's bonds, and told the people in the palace to be optimistic about the emperor, and not to pursue tonight's matter, but not to take an example.

The queen mother did not anger others, so that everyone was relieved, so she waited for the emperor to sleep early, and Yu'er should also return to Yongshou Palace.

Fu Lin turned back one step at a time, wanted to speak and stopped, he had too many things to say to Eniang, he didn't know where to start, but Eniang left without looking back.

After leaving the Qianqing Palace, Yu'er ordered Su Mala to send someone to bring a message to Dolgon, telling him that the emperor was fine, and making an appointment to discuss the rebellion in southern Fujian at another time.

Dolgon learned that Fu Lin was fine, so he also left the palace and went home, Qizig had been waiting for him at home for a long time, saying that Dolbo was sick, refused to take medicine and refused to eat, and made a lot of trouble, she wanted to send the child back to Prince Yu's mansion to let King Yu Fujin take care of him for a few days.

Dolgon said impatiently: "If you are sick again in the future, you will be sent back twice in three days?" Just let him stay here, the child has a temper, you have to treat him like you do to Tungor, if he is disobedient, you will care, or beat or scold, and the boy cannot condone it. ”

"I raised Donggu with my own hands, and there is no one else in her eyes, can Dolbo be the same? Don't say that you don't want to call me Eniang now, even if I don't scold him or beat him, I see me and the mouse meet the cat, what do I want? Zizig glared at his man angrily, "You have to pass on, and you don't care if you bring it, why should I raise it for you, and you have to count it down?" ”

Dolgon felt that his words were excessive, and hurriedly said: "I was just upset by Fulin, and when I came back, I heard you say Dolbo, thinking that all the children nowadays are amazing, when we were young, how dare we disobey our elders, otherwise we would have been whipped to death by Amma with a horsewhip." ”

Zizig also restrained her temper, knowing that it was not easy for her husband to manage everything, she relented and asked, "What's wrong with Fulin?" ”

Dolgon took off his coat and reproached: "At night, he will catch crickets, and run out privately with the eunuchs, so that the people of the Qianqing Palace will jump, and he will not grow up every year." ”

"What are you anxious about, he doesn't grow up, and he doesn't deserve to be an emperor in the future, isn't it just right?" Qizig waited for her husband to change his clothes and persuaded, "Do you really plan to train Fu Lin into a generation of Ming Jun?" Then it will also bless oneself and have a good fortune. ”

Dorgon sighed: "Having said that, who knows what will happen in the future, it is better to have a blessing than not to have it." ”

Qizig knew that she didn't need to talk much, but she was as shrewd as she was, so she immediately reminded her husband: "Whether Fu Lin went to catch crickets or did something else, I think you can't help but check and arrest that eunuch and interrogate him well." ”

Dolgon's brow furrowed, "Is it necessary?" ”

Qizig said, "Of course, what if he didn't go to catch crickets?" Regardless of whether Fulin is good or not, you have to hold him in the palm of your hand, no matter how capable he is, he can't get out of your Five Finger Mountain, just like when Huang Taiji dealt with you. ”

Dolgon agreed in a deep voice: "You're right, wait for me to send someone to interrogate." ”

is worthy of being sisters who have been together for twenty years, what Qi Qige thought, Yu'er also thought.

That night, in front of Fu Lin, the Empress Dowager spared Wu Liangfu, but immediately afterwards ordered Su Mala to pry open Wu Liangfu's mouth and ask where he followed the emperor.

Unexpectedly, the rootless guy was loyal to the little emperor, and was tortured by the queen mother and the regent before and after, and half of his life was gone, not to mention that he followed the emperor to the study, and he insisted that he was catching crickets.

Because he is a person trusted by Fulin, and Yu'er has been merciful that night, if he is killed or driven away again, Fulin will definitely be unhappy, and after discussing with Zhezhe, it was decided to let Wu Liangfu heal his injuries and continue to return to the Qianqing Palace on errands.

Zhezhe persuaded Yu'er: "Fulin was controlled by us, and he wanted to resist somewhat, and you also wanted to rebel against me back then, didn't you?" Now that Fulin has a servant he is willing to trust, let him stay by his side, there is no big mistake with so many pairs of eyes watching us. ”

Yu'er didn't mean to refute her aunt, but what her aunt said was unreasonable, it was clear that with so many pairs of eyes watching, there would still be places that she couldn't see, she really didn't want one day, she would have to bother with her son.

Su Mala heard from elsewhere that it turned out that the regent had also tortured Wu Liangfu in private, and she didn't say it in front of Zhezhe, and only mentioned it to Yu'er after leaving the Xiang Palace.

"It's good that he and I don't have to doubt each other." Yu'er disagreed, "I'd rather he could plan everything for himself, so that I can be at ease." ”

Because of all the busyness, two days later, Da Yu'er waited for Dolgon in the study.

He was not in a bad mood when he came, and he also brought dim sum bought from outside the palace, saying that it was an old shop in the capital, a shop that Zhu Di had opened before entering Beijing, and had passed on the craftsmanship for three hundred years.

Da Yu'er is not a child, she can eat a mouthful, and after tasting it, she praised a few words, and then said solemnly: "The matter over there in southern Fujian, I think of a person, I am afraid that you will not be at ease to use it, but I think he is much more reliable than Wu Sangui." ”

"Who?" Dolgon also became serious, "I'll listen to you. ”

"Hong Chengchou." Yu'er said, "He and Zheng Zhilong are fellow villagers, if you ask carefully, maybe there will be a relationship." Even if it doesn't have any relationship, Hong Chengchou was born there and understands the customs there, which is a hundred times stronger than those of us from the north. ”

Dolgon frowned and said: "I'm afraid that if Hong Chengchou is given the right to go south, he will turn against the Qing Dynasty, and our losses will outweigh the losses." ”

Da Yuer said: "Hong Chengchou is a shrewd person, after he was able to hide his wife and children, he led the troops for Chongzhen to go on the expedition, his mind was more sober than Wu Sangui." Although Sichuan and southern Fujian are now in our hearts, they will not be able to become a trend, and they will be exterminated by us sooner or later. Hong Chengchou's defection is useless, one has no chance of winning, and then he is such a second minister, even if he goes to the Southern Ming Dynasty, he has no place to stand, who can trust him? On the contrary, we trust him and rely on him, so that he can keep his heart in the city of Beijing. ”

Dolgon looked at Yu'er and said admiringly: "Although you are not the first to recommend Hong Chengchou, none of them can say that I am tempted, but at this moment, listening to you, I think it is him." ”

Yu'er said with a smile: "People are afraid of you, you speak in a measured manner, stop when you click, and don't dare to order if you can't click." But I'm not afraid, I want to say whatever I want, but I just make it clear. ”

"Not everyone can say that, Yu'er, you're amazing."

"Don't worry about praising me, if you agree with it, hurry up and arrange this matter." Yu'er said, "There are so many places, and if they go on year by year, the people will suffer, and the court can't afford it." ”

Dolgon smiled bitterly: "I still remember back then, I guessed that Huang Taiji wanted you to persuade Hong Chengchou to surrender, and immediately rushed to the military camp, fortunately, Huang Taiji was not confused, otherwise I would really come forward to stop it, even if I killed Hong Chengchou." ”

Yu'er still remembers that when she saw her husband appear, her heart pounded.

But she immediately suppressed this mood, and said some hurtful things to Huang Taiji, and now in retrospect, if she knew that he would soon abandon herself, she should have been nicer to him in the last two years.

"Yu'er?" Dorgon called out to her.

Yu'er came back to her senses, saw Dolgon and asked with a smile: "Do you want to go to Beijing City, Qiqige and Donggu are tired of getting tired, and they are more familiar with the road than me, you let them take you to see it too." You've been here for so long, you haven't seen what Beijing is like, have you? ”

"I can't go yet, I want to set an example for Fulin, and Fulin must want to go too, hold back." Da Yu'er said with a smile, "When southern Fujian and Sichuan are calmed down, then we will talk about it, and then we should really celebrate." ”

Dolgon readily agreed, but since there was nothing else to do, he was inconvenient to stay in the study, and told Yu'er that the weather was getting colder and colder, and that she should take care of her health, and left soon after.

Su Mala sent the regent, came back and took the palace maids to clean up the tea set, and when they retreated, she warmed up Gege's hand stove, and said with a smile: "I just heard the prince say that he wants to go to Beijing to go shopping?" ”

"I don't want to go." Da Yu'er's eyes were cold, as if she was talking to herself: "What he promised me, he never could do." ”

Su Mala didn't understand, but she seemed to understand.
