Chapter 2 Shengjing Situation (1)
Chapter 2: The Storm of Shengjing (I)
According to the script, Dorgon could not allow the Ming Dynasty to be handed over to the Later Jin Dynasty. Dorgon had to meet Sakhalin, the Minister of the Later Jin Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty. No one knew that Dorgon had been a prisoner of the Ming Dynasty. This was extremely important for Dorgon to be in power when he returned to the Later Jin Dynasty.
Dorgon's experience in the Ming Dynasty even brought him a considerable amount of political wealth. A lonely hero who traveled thousands of miles apart would need close cooperation from the Ming Dynasty to create such a character.
Under Zhu Yinglong's secret arrangement, Dorgon did not go to find Sakhalin immediately, but left Beijing first, went to Hejian Prefecture, met Zhuge Qing and his wife, and then picked Zhuge Qing and his wife up north to Beijing. It took four or five days to go back and forth.
It has been more than half a year since Sony took over the position of minister. In the past six months, he has worked hard to set up his own intelligence network in the capital. Although he can know nothing about any movement, at least he can get news in the fastest time if there is any movement in the capital.
Sakhalin did not trust the Han people, so when he took office, all the Han mates in the embassy, including the chef, were fired, and all replaced with the Jurchens or Mongolians he brought. These people were all unruly masters. They suddenly arrived in the Southern Dynasty's flower world, causing trouble everywhere, drinking and fighting, causing grievances among the people in the capital, and almost went to court. Sakhalin took great efforts to settle some people, almost causing the embassy to stop working.
There are more than these headaches. Because of the arrogance and unreasonableness of his subordinates, Sakhalin once had a very tense relationship with the various departments of the Ming Dynasty's court, especially when both sides could not see it. For customs clearance, trade and other matters involving the Later Jin Dynasty, Sakhalin encountered obstacles everywhere. However, Sakhalin was a master of Sakhalin. After more than half a year of hard work, with the help of money and various dark transactions, he had gained a firm foothold in Beijing and achieved certain results. However, what annoyed Sakhalin was that His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty had never summoned him alone except when he took office.
In the capital, people who know Sahalin call him "Sabel", and the Sony in the past was "Mr. Sony". Although Beller is 10,000 times noble, a gentleman and a Beller are still ten thousand times different. The name "Mr." is a true respect for a person, which is a person with real talent and knowledge, and "Belle" is just a symbol of status, and this title is not a Han person. Then "Belle" is no different from a "beggar" in the eyes of the Han people!
This made Sakhalin, who was familiar with and proficient in Han culture, extremely annoyed. Although he was constantly working hard to attend some cultural activities and occasionally published some opinions on Confucian academics, without his articles published, he would be criticized as a public enemy of Confucianism.
It is of course unrealistic to say that Sakhalin has not made any contribution at all. Especially since the Ming Dynasty implemented the reform of the new law, Sakhalin had gained a vision and saw the market. In the new law, Sakhalin discovered a lot of things worth learning from by the Later Jin Dynasty with a higher perspective than ordinary people. Moreover, these things were even more important to a pioneering dynasty like the Later Jin Dynasty. After these things were sorted out one by one and sent back to the country, they had great ideals for the adjustment of the domestic policy of the Later Jin Dynasty. Huang Taiji and Fan Wencheng were both people with high-level eyesight, and of course they discovered the huge amount of things in it at a glance.
The value of the Later Jin policy was appropriately adjusted, which brought huge development opportunities to the Later Jin political situation. In particular, Huang Taiji saved a lot of frugality in the Ming Dynasty's new land law and also established a land code. Under such a code, the land management of the Later Jin embarked on the road of standardization and institutionalization, especially the stability of North Korea in the occupied areas, which had a huge impact. Because of this land code, the momentum of resistance in North Korea became much weaker in the country, and the Jurchens was relatively stable. It can be said that the reform of the Ming Dynasty also promoted the stability of the Later Jin and further strengthened the national strength!
Although this point of view is that the Ming Dynasty shot itself in the foot with a stone, in the long run, the Later Jin Dynasty adopted regulations with similar provisions as the Ming Dynasty's new law. When the Ming Dynasty took back all these places, the resistance to implementing the Ming Dynasty's laws will be much smaller. Every drink and a peck, gains and losses will only be determined by heaven!
Of course, the Later Jin Dynasty had no way to learn the Ming Dynasty. At most, it was a four-dimensional person. However, just a little thing they learned was that the resistance forces in the Later Jin Dynasty became smaller and smaller, and Huang Taiji's prestige was also rising slowly.
Although the Ming Dynasty did not like this minister from the monarch and ministers to ordinary people, Sakhalin was greatly trusted by Huang Taiji, and along with Daishan's family, he also gained a lot of benefits and became a celebrity in front of Huang Taiji.
Beijing is already very cold, and it is almost October. As the first snow is approaching, the Ming Dynasty started to make trouble all over the country a few days ago. Originally, Huang Taiji wanted to burn the fire for the Ming Dynasty, but it calmed down in the blink of an eye. The thunderous means of Emperor Ming made the irresistible minister of the Later Jin feel the chill in his bones!
"It's already snowing in Shengjing. I don't know how Ama's health is!" Sahalin is now dressed in bright clothes, full of silk and satin, and the whip is shiny. He doesn't want Sony. He changed Manchu's outfit only when he went back in the third year of the Ming Dynasty. He has never changed his customs and has always appeared in front of everyone. What Zhu Yinglong hates the most is the image of this horse whip, and he even hates it to the core. Sahalin is also a deadly hard-working gang who supports Huang Taiji, so he doesn't like this Sahalin very much, so he naturally doesn't want to see him.
"Sabel, Mr. Liu is here. In the living room, he said he would ask you to bring him a batch of mink fur. This year it will be cold in the north. mink fur coats are in short supply, so he is about to take off the goods."
"How much does he want?" The capital city has a lot of expenses and has to maintain some shameful expenses. Moreover, it does not have the same circle as Sony, so it costs more, so it naturally requires some ways to make money, such as smuggling.
"Three thousand pictures!"
"Three thousand, he thinks I raise minks, no, not even a thousand, at most five hundred!" Sahalin was very upset. This boss Liu was not willing to do business with such a person because he was not willing to do business with such a person because he was not interested in seeing him having some relationship with the Ming court.
"Sabelle, did you let me reply to him like this?"
"Just go back like this!" Sahalin said impatiently.
"There is another thing, Sabel, a beggar took a letter today and said it was for you. When the slave saw it, he didn't know what he was writing, so he forgot it just now." Nagoshha took out a letter and handed it to Sahalin.
"Oh?" Sahalin took the letter in confusion and said to himself, "You usually ask you to read more books, but you just don't listen!"
When Sahalin took out the letter and opened it, he was stunned. A layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. He asked with a trembling voice: "Can you still find the beggar who sent the letter?"
"I don't know the young one, but the beggar left a sentence saying that he wanted to find the owner of this letter and could go to the Guanyin Temple in the west of the city. The man said that he would be where he was within three days and would leave in three days." Goshha looked at his master carefully. Seeing Sahalin's excited look, it can be seen that the origin of the person who wrote this letter is not simple.
"Hurry up, come here, prepare sedan chairs, no, prepare carriages!" Sahalin shouted excitedly.
"Okay!"
"No, no, no, wait, don't hurry up and prepare the car first, let me think about it!" Sahalin suddenly shook his head with a very cautious expression and changed his mind.
Although a letter is as light as a feather, Sakhalin seems that this ordinary letter written in Mandarin is like a mountain pressing on his heart. It is too late to ask for instructions in China. He only has three days. No, now one day has passed, he only has two days.
He was very familiar with the handwriting on the letter. This was his handwriting of his fourteenth uncle Dorgon, and his ink was obviously written. In the Later Jin Dynasty, Dorgon almost caused severe turmoil due to Dorgon's life and death. Most people in the country believed that Dorgon had no chance to survive, and the longer the time, the chance of survival was almost zero. He himself, including himself, believed that Dorgon was undoubtedly dead. But what he never expected was that he actually received a letter from Dorgon, and in terms of handwriting and tone, he was sure that it was exactly the same as the fourteenth uncle Dorgon he knew. Could it be that he was really alive?
It is unpredictable to know that Dorgon is still alive. This is a big impact on the political situation of the Later Jin Dynasty. Especially those who believe in rumors and think that Huang Taiji is tragic for his throne and are tragic, they will shut up their mouths all at once, and Huang Taiji will also escape from the rumors. This is a favorable aspect, but for Huang Taiji's ruling group, this is extremely unfavorable. Without Dorgon, the opposition group is a mess. They have no reason, or they cannot find a core, and sooner or later they will be dealt with by Huang Taiji one by one. In the Dorgon incident, the most fierce and cruel Mangourtai is an example. He has been delayed by Huang Taiji for the opportunity to fight and has been ordered to be put into prison, deprived of his title and title.
A message came from the country, that is, to clean up people who tend to be Dorgon's lineage. At this time, Dorgon suddenly came back. In order not to have to clean up, these people will definitely unite around Dorgon. The Great Jin Kingdom is likely to plant the seeds of division.
This is the Ming Dynasty again. No matter what he does, he cannot hide it from the Ming intelligence department. If Daming knew that Dorgon was still alive, he would definitely not let it go!
There are three ways before Sahalin. One is to confirm that Dorgon is still alive and help him return to Shengjing secretly. There are also huge risks. Moreover, Huang Taiji may not be willing to see Dorgon return to Shengjing alive, especially for the lineage that is relatively close to Dorgon. He also heard that Huang Taiji planned to marry Dorgon's concubine Wu Yun Shandan as his concubine. The rumors also heard that Wu Yun Shandan had entered the palace several times, but he only returned to the house the next day, and the relationship was confused and complicated. The second way, regardless of whether the person who wrote the letter was real Dorgon, kill him and keep the secret shut forever.
It seems not difficult, but it is actually quite tricky. Who is Dorgon? Is it so easy to kill? Since he dares to write to himself, he must be fully prepared. He can arrive at the Ming Dynasty silently and even sneak into the capital. If he really wants to go back, it is not difficult. He doesn't have to come to him. Third, sell this news to the Ming Dynasty. As long as Dorgon is kept in the Ming Dynasty, the domestic purge can still be carried out. As long as Dorgon cannot appear in Shengjing, the overall situation will not have much impact. In this way, he may have a reputation as a traitor. Everything now will be shattered and will be criticized for life!
After thinking about it, I found that only the second road seemed to be the most beneficial to me in the three roads and could take a chance, but that was my elder. If Dorgon really wanted to kill him, the news leaked, there would be no way to survive. The first choice was to bear Dorgon's great favor, but it would inevitably anger Huang Taiji. His future was over. The third choice was to be caught in his hands. Once Dorgon escaped, it would be fine if he could not get the situation. If he gained power, it would be his own devastating disaster.
Sakhalin realized that he had picked up a hot potato and was in a dilemma!
