Chapter 2180 Kangxi and Qianlong
Chapter 2176: Kangxi and Qianlong
touch, touch…
One piece of exquisite porcelain was constantly destroyed by Dorgon's ruthless hands, but it still could not dispel the anger in his heart.
“Chu Ying, Aguda, please wait for me.”
Howling like a wild beast sounded in the palace.
“Huhu…”
After venting his anger, Dorgon stopped moving his hands and began to breathe heavily. Although the anger in his heart subsided slightly, his eyes were still red, as if he wanted to choose someone to devour.
The coveted throne is obviously very close, but Chu Ying and Chu Hu suddenly appear on the way. It is difficult for those who have not experienced it to understand the pain of having hope but despairing again.
That feeling is so oppressive that it makes me crazy.
What kind of bad virtue is said?
The elders and younger ones are in order?
Bah, it’s all bullshit.
Why don’t you talk about ability and merit?
It is not that Chu Ying is easier to control than Dorgon, so if Chu Ying ascends the throne, the aristocratic faction headed by Aguda will also benefit the most.
Dorgon is much smarter than Chu Ying. He knows the reason why Aguda did not choose him, but he has no way to stop it.
The power of the Aguda faction is too strong. If Dorgon forcibly stops it, the Manchu Qing Dynasty will immediately fall into civil strife.
Today's Manchu Qing Dynasty, the late emperor died, the army was leaderless, and the entire army of more than 200,000 people was wiped out. This was the weakest moment.
If there is still internal fighting at this time, once the more than 300,000 Qin troops in Youzhou attack, the country will really be destroyed.
Therefore, for the sake of the overall situation, Dorgon could only abandon his ego and reluctantly give up the throne to Chu Ying, but he really couldn't swallow his bad breath and could only hide and vent his anger alone.
If another brother had succeeded him, although Dorgon would not be willing to accept it, he would never be so angry. However, it was his eldest brother Chu Ying who succeeded him in the end.
Who is Chu Ying?
It’s simply a piece of trash.
Among all the brothers, he is the last one.
Dorgon despised this eldest brother from the bottom of his heart.
Let such a person inherit the throne, Dorgon only felt that the Qing Dynasty had no future.
“Brother, it’s not good, Chu…”
Xuan Ye and Hongli rushed into the study. They were the later Emperors Kangxi and Qianlong respectively.
As soon as he said "Chu", Kangxi immediately realized that the person he was talking about was now the emperor, so he couldn't call him by his name, so he quickly changed his words.
“Your Majesty has appointed King Jin as regent, taking charge of the military and political power of the country.”
"What?"
Dorgon's eyes widened. He would agree to Chu Ying's ascension to the throne because he had negotiated with Aguda and the two would jointly take charge of the military and political power, so he was willing to step back and support Chu Ying's ascension to the throne.
Now that Chu Ying has ascended the throne, Aguda has also been named regent, but Dorgon has been left alone. It is obvious that Aguda is not prepared to abide by the agreement.
“Aguda…”
Dorgon was so angry that he was trembling with anger at Aguma's shameless act. He gritted his teeth and said, "You are going too far."
No matter how angry he was, Dorgon did not dare to get angry. If he flipped the table, everyone would forget about it. He could not destroy the entire Qing Dynasty for his own selfish interests. Looking at Dorgon who was clearly angry but had nowhere to vent, Qianlong hesitated for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, the two generals Shan Shituo and Yang Dayan are back."
Hearing this, Dorgon's face softened slightly and asked, "Where are they?"
“I am being hosted by King Jin for a banquet, and there are many other generals going with me.”
The veins on Dorgon's forehead popped out, he clenched his fists and roared: "Traitor, traitor."
After a while, he loosened his grip weakly, as if he had lost his soul.
“That’s all, they can go if they want to.”
After saying this, Dorgon fell to the ground, looking lost and ready to break the jar.
Seeing this, Kangxi said in a deep voice. "My lord, take heart. General Shanshituo and the others have not yet fallen to King Jin. If you give up now, the Qing Dynasty will really be over."
“Cheer up?”
Dorgon's face was full of bitterness, and he smiled bitterly and said: "Now that the situation is over and people's hearts are scattered, how can I cheer up? Are you going to fight with A Gu? In this case, the Qing Dynasty will really be over, and it will only be easier for the Qin Dynasty. Just Hao."
Compared to Aguda and Chu Ying, Dorgon still hated Qin Hao who had a murderous hatred. He would rather take advantage of Aguda than kill his father's enemy. At least Aguda was a Manchu.
Aguda also had the guts to be so confident because he had accurately calculated Dorgon's thoughts.
After listening to Dorgon's words, Kangxi and Qianlong were acquainted, and both saw admiration from each other's verification.
Dorgon was not weak, but focused on the overall situation. Such a person was obviously more suitable to succeed than Chu Ying, but Aguda took advantage of his own selfish interests and forcibly supported Chu Ying to ascend the throne, which was a disaster for the country and the people.
“No, as a descendant of Aisin Gioro, I must help His Highness Dorgon.” The two of them thought to themselves.
After pondering for a long time, Kangxi's eyes flashed with light and he said: "Your Highness, for the Qing Dynasty, although the Qin army is a threat, it is a distant worry, and Aguda is a immediate concern."
Dorgon was stunned and asked, "What do you mean by this?"
"Your Highness, in the battle of Youzhou, more than 200,000 troops were wiped out. At this time, our Qing Dynasty was at its weakest. If the Qin army really wanted to take advantage of the victory, would they miss this great opportunity? "
Dorgon frowned and nodded: "That makes sense."
"The fact that the Qin Army did not take the initiative to attack can only mean that the Qin Army does not want to continue fighting, or is hampered by other things and cannot expand the results of the battle."
Hearing Kangxi's words, Dorgon's eyes suddenly lit up and he said in a deep voice: "Something big will happen in the Central Plains, and it is related to the lifeline of the Qin army, otherwise Qin Hao would never be able to withdraw his troops."
"Yes, it is precisely because of this that for the Qing Dynasty, the Qin army is not a threat in the short term, but Aguda is a greater threat."
Kangxi is worthy of being the longest-reigning emperor of the Qing Dynasty. He analyzed the current situation vividly in just a few words, which gave Dorgon a sense of enlightenment as the clouds were cleared away.
Seeing this, Qianlong was even more categorical: "Manchuria is still under the control of Your Highness, and Aguda dares to violate the contract openly. When his position as regent is completely secure, he will not let you go."
“That’s right.” Kangxi nodded.
“Then I, the king, will strike first to gain the upper hand.”
Dorgon is not a weak person, and his retreat to A Gu is for the overall situation. Now that the Qin army cannot threaten the Manchu Qing for the time being, he will naturally have to fight A Gu to let him know the consequences of deceiving him.
"Xuan Ye and Hong Li, you two are very good. If I win, you two will take the lead."
Looking at Dorgon who had regained his confidence, Kangxi showed a smile on his lips and said with a faint smile: "Your Highness, now that Agu is full of ambitions, it is the most relaxed moment. If planned properly, internal fighting can be avoided to the greatest extent."
Hearing this, Dorgon's eyes flashed with a trace of evil, and he said in a cold voice: "Aguda, Amma failed to kill you, this scourge, I, Dorgon, will kill you."
