Li Ji lost her life in a crushing defeat against me. Li Ji's death made the other side of the Belle Mansion see the fact that among the many women in the Baylor Mansion, I am the person Dolgon cares about the most.

Afterwards, Dorgon solemnly summoned a shaman for me, who would do so to exorcise the sorcery. After that, my "illness" slowly recovered, and Dolgon's solemn look slowly disappeared. I don't know what kind of feelings he has for me, is he afraid of losing my brains, or does he really care about me? I'd rather believe the latter.

I have established absolute authority in the House of Belle, and I have the final say in all matters in the House of Baylor, for Dorgon has become less and less concerned with the affairs of the House. He has more militaristic matters to deal with. Huang Taiji showed more trust in him, and he also relied more and more on this young and promising younger brother.

I got along with Dolgon more and more, and he would often come to the Peony Tower for a drink, talk with me about military affairs, and speculate on Huang Taiji's heart. Being able to make the right judgment about the events of the world and guess the true intentions of the ruler is essential to our whole plan.

I've forgotten about the others, mighty, inactive, and even the missing Xuemei, all of whom I have forgotten. My heart can only fit one person, and my world exists because of him.

In the seventh year of Tiancong, after Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Shang Kexi and other Ming generals came to surrender, Huang Taiji once again discussed with Zhu Beile and the ministers about further plans for rejuvenating the country, and asked them which should come first between the expedition of the Ming Dynasty, Chahar and Korea. Dolgon strongly advocated the first step in conquering the Ming and clearly put forward the strategy of "destruction" against the Ming. He replied: "I should straighten out the soldiers and horses, take the grain to enter the border to besiege Yanjing when the valley is ripe, intercept its reinforcements and destroy its fort, and wait for it to be stationed for a long time." Dolgon's suggestion was adopted by Huang Taiji.

Because the Ming Dynasty had heavy troops stationed in Jiliao and Shanhaiguan, the Houjin army avoided Jiliao again this time, bypassed Shanhaiguan, and divided the troops into four routes: the first route was Shangbao to Xuanfu and Yingzhou, and captured Datong; The second route enters the dragon gate, and meets the first road at Xuanfu; The third road enters from the Dushikou and joins the first two roads in Yingzhou; The fourth route is Fort of Victory, passing through Datong, and finally reaching Shuozhou. After the armies of several roads converged, they attacked the state together. Huang Taiji set the time of the expedition at two months, during which the Houjin army was to plunder as much as possible.

As usual, Huang Taiji is the royal driver's personal expedition, Dolgon and other beylers pass, and this time it is the big beyler who stays in Shenyang to supervise the country. Dorgon had wanted to take me with him on the expedition to deal with the unexpected events. But I didn't. The garrison of the Ming Dynasty in Xuanda was far inferior to Jiliao, and the ability of the governor of Xuanda was far inferior to that of the governor of Jiliao. And Chongzhen was overwhelmed by the peasant uprising in the country, and he didn't have much energy to take care of the Xuanda defense line. The general Hong Chengchou, who could have posed a threat to the Houjin, is now being transferred by Chongzhen to suppress the thieves, and has no time to deal with the Houjin army. I think that this time, there will not be much resistance to the post-Jin army, and there is no doubt that it will win. In the face of such a defensive line, Dolgon's combat command was more than enough, not to mention that there was also Dordor's side to assist. I don't want Dorgon to think he's inferior to me.

Sure enough, as I expected, the Houjin army was invincible and overwhelming, and soon defeated the Ming army guarding the Xuanfu and Datong defense lines. The loot was continuously sent to Shenyang from the front.
