Chapter 144: The Tired Fan Wen Cheng Qiuyue
Dai Shan narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Then this matter..."
Fan Wencheng bowed and said, "If the prince doesn't dislike him, the servant is willing to do it for him."
Dai Shan nodded and said, "With Mr. Fan, Lao Sisi will definitely obey it."
After a moment of pause, he continued, "But this matter should not be too rumored, otherwise it will cause criticism."
"I understand!"
Fan Wencheng beat Qian'er and said respectfully: "If the prince has nothing else, the servant will retreat."
"kindness."
Dai Shan responded lightly and slowly closed his eyes.
Fan Wencheng carefully left the room and walked out. As soon as he left the yard, he saw Jiergalang walking towards him.
Fan Wencheng quickly stopped and bowed and said, "Slave Fan Wencheng pays homage to Prince Zheng."
Jirgalang was a prince with the title of Heshuo, and together with Dorgon, he served as the auxiliary minister as the King of Uncle.
"Mr. Fan doesn't need to be polite. I came to Prince Li's house to listen to music. Should Mr. Fan be with me?"
Jiergalang had the first-class skill in cultivating his energy, and he was not surprised at all when he saw Fan Wencheng.
"Thank you for your kindness to Prince Zheng. But the slave still wants to go to the palace to pay homage to the regent. It involves important matters in military and national affairs, and the slave dare not neglect it."
Jirgalang said oh, and did not force himself, and smiled and said, "Then let's go another day."
Fan Wencheng must not be surprised that Jirgalang and Daishan were so close.
The Eight Banners are basically divided into three factions. The three brothers Dorgon, Dodo and Ajige are one faction. Haoge is one faction. Jirhalang and Daishan are one faction.
When Dorgon, Dodo and Ajige's three brothers were aggressively overwhelmed Haoge and almost got involved in the throne, Jirhalang, the lord of the Inlaid Blue Banner, stood up and negotiated with Dorgon with Daishan, and finally decided to support Huang Taiji's ninth son Fulin ascended the throne.
This is a compromise that can be accepted by many parties, avoiding bloody conflicts within the Eight Banners.
Fan Wencheng admired Jirgalang's mind and demeanor very much.
The relationship between the owners of each banner is very delicate, and the interests are very complicated.
Fan Wencheng didn't care much about these things, and just hoped to do his duty as a servant to help the Qing Dynasty seize the world.
......
......
Fan Wencheng was immediately summoned by Dorgon after he came to the palace. Although Dorgon now values Hong Chengchou more, he still attaches great importance to old people like Fan Wencheng.
After Fan Wencheng bowed and greeted Dorgon as usual, he told Dorgon about his concerns.
"Prince, I think that someone should be sent to move the families of the eight major Shanxi merchants from Zhangjiakou Fort to the capital."
"Oh? Why does Mr. Fan think so?"
Dorgon gently turned the ring on his thumb and asked in a playful way.
"Reporting back to the prince, this is just in case. Merchants seek profit, especially merchants like Fan Yongdou, can do everything for the sake of profit."
Fan Wencheng paused for a moment and then said, "They are working hard for the Qing Dynasty because the Qing Dynasty can give them enough benefits. But if others can give them more benefits, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not have any unfaithful intentions. Moving all their families to the capital can make them lose sight of the mouse."
After Fan Wencheng's analysis, Dorgon felt that he had been too careless before, so he nodded and said, "Since that's the case, let's do what Mr. Fan said. By the way, I have another thing to ask Mr. Fan."
"Prince, please speak."
"Since the emperor has moved the capital from Shengjing, he should live in the Forbidden City. I should move the place too."
Dorgon had been living in the Forbidden City for the first time, but Emperor Shunzhi moved from Shengjing to Beijing not long ago, and Dorgon continued to stay in the Forbidden City and felt a little embarrassed.
Although he was the regent of the emperor's uncle and had the power to take over, he was not the emperor after all. If he continued to live in the Forbidden City, it would be unreasonable to be reasonable.
Fan Wencheng was a little surprised.
With Prince Rui's character, it is not easy to be able to make concessions on his own initiative.
"The prince is wise."
Fan Wencheng was very happy to see the Eight Banners' Lord put down his prejudices and agree to the outside world. As long as the Southerners were solved, it didn't matter how hard they went next. But before that, you must be united and not let the Southerners find an opportunity to take advantage of it.
"But I am regent as the emperor's uncle. If I dispatch troops and generals to the palace, it is inconvenient. Why not move the emperor's seal to my palace first to be used for later use."
As soon as Dorgon said this, Fan Wencheng felt a roar of his head.
Sure enough, he should have expected that Dorgon would not move out of the Forbidden City so easily. It turned out that he had a backup plan!
The Seal of Emperor's Emperor is a symbol of imperial power. Although Fulin is just a child, he is still as the title of Emperor Qing. Dorgon wanted to directly approve the Seal of Emperor and put it in his palace for later use. This is simply domineering!
Fan Wencheng's face was pale and he didn't know what to say.
Seeing this, Dorgon asked with concern: "What, is Mr. Fan feeling uncomfortable? He was fine just now."
"Slave, I think this is very inappropriate."
After hesitating for a while, Fan Wencheng gritted his teeth and said, "Although the prince is in charge of the regent, he is only in charge of the emperor's administration. The seal should still be placed in the palace for a special person to keep it."
Dorgon turned his finger and said with a smile: "Mr. Fan's concerns make sense. Did you Han people say something that is not right if you are not a righteous person."
Fan Wencheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself that the Regent had finally listened.
"Since that's the case, I will be justified. The title of the emperor's uncle, the regent, should be changed. What does Mr. Fan think that the emperor's father, the regent?"
Fan Wencheng's body froze directly.
Oh my God, doesn’t this mean treating the current Qing emperor as his son?
However, Fan Wencheng has to admit that Dorgon's trick is very clever.
Once Dorgon's title is changed from his uncle to his father, the regent, he can use seals on behalf of the emperor in a legitimate manner.
Although these two titles are just one word different, there is a huge difference.
Fan Wencheng's teeth were trembling, and his Adam's apple trembled up and down, but he couldn't say a word.
What should he say?
The Regent said this to this point, what can he say?
Deep down in his heart, Fan Wencheng hoped that Huang Taiji's son would sit on the throne of the Qing Dynasty.
This person may not be Haoge, but he must be Huang Taiji's descendant.
Now, seeing that Dorgon did not give up on the throne, this is a very troublesome thing.
Fan Wencheng didn't understand why Dorgon just told him about changing the "Emperor's Uncle Regent" to "Emperor's Father Regent". Was he testing him?
Or did Dorgon win over him?
No matter which one it is, Fan Wencheng must be careful to deal with it. Because once he takes a wrong step, he will be doomed.
