The 1180th chapter dust settled (2)

Bumbutai reached out and plucked a leaf of dead grass from his head.

The Qing Dynasty was defeated so miserably that it was completely destroyed. This was something Bumubutai never expected. It turned out that she thought that Dorgon led the army to evacuate from Shenyang, and that the Eight Banners Army crossed Zhenbei Pass and retreated all the way north. Relying on the advantage of the terrain, they stuck to the Mulan River area and then slowly recovered. Unexpectedly, the Eight Banners Army was completely wiped out by the Denglai New Army. The vanguard of the Denglai New Army was about to arrive at Nurgandusi, where the Jurchens in Jianzhou made their fortune. If this place is occupied by the Denglai New Army, it means that the Jurchens in Jianzhou will never have a chance to stand up.

When he was about to be captured alive, Bumbutai thought of committing suicide, but when he really thought about taking action, the figure of Fulin appeared in his mind. It was that moment of hesitation that made Bumbutai become the leader of Denglai's new army. captive.

It is unbelievable that the empress dowager of the Qing Dynasty became a prisoner.

Bumbutai was not mistreated, and lived a good life every day. There were still two palace maids staying by his side to serve him, and he could walk around in the courtyard whether in Tieling or Shenyang.

At this time, Bumbutai was most concerned about Fulin. He didn't know where Fulin was hiding, whether he could persist, and whether he could go to the grassland in the future.

As they headed towards the capital, Bumbutai began to worry. When he went to the capital, he would very likely meet the emperor of the Wu court, and his final fate would also be decided.

Along the way, Bumbutai thought a lot. The legendary emperor Wu Zongrui of the Wu Dynasty had a huge influence in the Qing Dynasty. The former Manchu nobles were extremely proud and looked down on the Han people at all, so they would not pay attention to them. Wu Zongrui, who was still a court official of the Ming Dynasty, until Wu Zongrui served as the governor of Ji Liao in the Ming Dynasty, gradually made the Eight Banners Army suffer, so that the Eight Banners Army did not dare to easily attack from the east of Liaoning, and gradually began to stabilize the castles and cities west of the Liao River.

The Denglai New Army became the dream of the Eight Banners Army. They fought several battles without winning a single victory.

The self-confidence of the Manchu nobles was completely destroyed in the Battle of Liaodong. In that battle, nearly half of the Eight Banners Army was completely wiped out, and the Denglai New Army completely exposed its sharp fangs. The following Battle of Shenyang, suppressed In the Battle of Beiguan, the Eight Banners Army was wiped out step by step until it was completely destroyed.

Bumubutai heard a saying from the Manchu nobles, which meant that the imperial court had despised Wu Zongrui and the Denglai New Army, which had caused huge disasters. The implication was that they did not recognize the strength of the Denglai New Army, but Bumubutai did not recognize the strength of the Denglai New Army. Mbutai heard different opinions from Dorgon, Daishan, Jierhalang and others. They all recognized the wisdom of Emperor Wu, the strength of Denglai's new army, and admitted that the Eight Banners Army was not Denglai. The opponent of the new army, the Qing Dynasty, was even more unable to compete with the Wu court.

Although Bumbutai was a woman, her knowledge was no less than that of Dorgon and others. If she had not been the mediator, her son Fulin would have lost his throne as emperor of the Qing Dynasty long ago.

When the palace maid came to report that she would arrive in Beijing, the capital of the Wu court, the next day, Bumbutai's face turned pale and his body could not help but tremble.

...

The carriage stopped in front of the Forbidden City, and the palace maid came to report that it was possible to enter the Forbidden City on foot.

Bumubutai was extremely surprised. When the carriage set off from the inn, she was very careful, suppressed her curiosity, and never opened the curtains. Even though there was a lot of people outside and it sounded lively and prosperous, it lasted for nearly a month. As time passed, Bumbutai's thoughts changed unknowingly. His desire to die gradually weakened, and his desire to live became stronger and stronger. Not long ago, when Bumbutai had a dream, he dreamed of the Mongolian prairie.

Bumbutai left the Mongolian prairie when he was less than twelve years old and married Huang Taiji. More than twenty years passed in the blink of an eye. He always wanted to return to the Mongolian prairie to see it. Unfortunately, there was no chance. The Qing Dynasty fell. Bumbutai even gave up this thought, feeling that he would never have such an opportunity in his life.

After being captured, Bumbutai was treated well and unknowingly had the idea of ​​returning to the Mongolian prairie, and she also wanted to see her son Fulin.

When the majestic Forbidden City appeared in front of him, Bumubutai felt a little dizzy. Shenyang also had a palace, but compared with the Forbidden City in front of him, the layout was too small.

Bumbutai heard from Fan Wencheng that the rules of the Ming Dynasty were very strict. Ordinary people could not approach the Forbidden City, let alone see the emperor. Fan Wencheng, whom Nurhaci and Huang Taiji trusted very much, was just a member of the Ming Dynasty. Famous students are not qualified to see the emperor at all, and officials in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, if their rank is too low, although they have the opportunity to attend the imperial court once or twice a year, they have no chance to see the emperor.

When you meet the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, you need to bow three times and make nine buckles. There can be no problems with etiquette. Otherwise, you will be impeached by the official, seriously ruining your future and losing your life.

This is very different from the Qing Dynasty. As the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji was an easy-going person. As long as he was useful to the court, Huang Taiji would personally receive them, and there were not so many rules.

Officials from Honglu Temple led Bumu Butai onto the Jinshui Bridge on the right.

Bumbutai lowered her head, occasionally looking up to look around. The corridor into Tiananmen, the thick walls, the vermilion gate, and the bright door buttons all made her feel the majesty of the emperor. This majesty was also found in the Qing Dynasty. But compared with the Forbidden City of the Wu Dynasty, there is always something missing.

Maybe this is one of the reasons why the Qing Dynasty was eventually destroyed.

The magnificent Fengtian Temple appeared in front of him, and Bumubutai finally couldn't help but look up.

The Honglu Temple official who led the way coughed several times to wake up Bumubutai.

Bumubutai followed the officials of Honglu Temple and turned left into the Xiehe Gate.

When entering the Wenhua Gate, the official of Honglu Temple finally spoke.

"Wait here..."

Bumbutai nodded and stood where he was.

Not far ahead is the Wenhua Hall, where Wu Zongrui handles government affairs.

Bumubutai didn't know all this. She thought that Wu Zongrui, the emperor of the Wu Dynasty, might handle government affairs in Fengtian Hall. She was a captured Qing prisoner and should not be eligible to enter Fengtian Hall.

A few minutes later, officials from Honglu Temple appeared again.

"Please follow me, the emperor summons..."

Bumbutai nodded, her body trembled slightly, the moment to decide her fate was coming.

Entering the Wenhua Hall, Bumubutai lowered his head and did not pay attention to the situation around him.

"If you don't bow quickly when you see the emperor, what are the officials of Honglu Temple doing..."

The voice coming from the left made Bumbutai a little confused. In fact, the moment she entered the hall, Bumbutai still had a bit of stubbornness in her heart. In any case, she was the empress dowager of the Qing Dynasty. Although the Qing Dynasty was destroyed, But as the empress dowager, Bumubutai's dignity still exists.

"Sir, it's not necessary, Mr. Borzigit, just raise your head and speak."

A strong voice came, and Bumubutai raised his head and spoke in a neither arrogant nor humble voice.

"Mr. Borzigit, I met Emperor Wu..."

Hearty laughter came and echoed in the hall.

"Borjijit, let me call you Bumbutai, Bumbutai of the grassland, a noble person descended from heaven. You and your aunt married Huang Taiji at the same time. Your aunt is the queen, and you are the emperor."

Concubine, but you both became the empress dowager of the Qing Dynasty at the same time, and Huang Taiji’s favorite Hailanzhu did not have such a good life..."

Bumbutai's eyesight was very good. Although she was at a certain distance, she could still clearly see the emperor on the chariot. The emperor looked very young, handsome, and had an aura of calmness and authority around him.

Before Bumbutai could answer, the voice came again.

"Sir, Lu Ting, please step aside first. Bumbutai and I will talk alone and order the imperial kitchen to prepare lunch for Bumbutai..."

Bumbutai turned around and looked around. Before she could see clearly, Zeng Yongzhong and Lu Faxuan exited the Wenhua Hall and waited outside.

Wu Zongrui stood up, stepped down from the chariot, and came to Bumu Butai.

"Bumbutai, you and I are the same age. You were born in March of the 41st year of Wanli, and I was born in April of the 41st year of Wanli. You are one month older than me. A few days ago, I was still thinking, if I hadn't been older

Wu Chaoting, maybe your Qing Dynasty has destroyed the Ming Dynasty, and you, the empress dowager of the Qing Dynasty, have become the master of the Forbidden City..."

Bumbutai would never have thought that Wu Zongrui, the emperor of the Wu Dynasty, would be so easy-going and not show any arrogance of a winner in front of her.

Bumu Butai, who was originally prepared to stick to the bottom line, didn't know how to answer for a moment, and unconsciously bent his knees to salute Wu Zongrui.

"I have seen the emperor. The Qing Kingdom no longer exists. I beg the emperor to spare the many Manchus in the Qing Kingdom and give them a way to survive..."

Laughter came again, and Bumbutai felt nervous and did not even dare to raise his head.

"Bumbutai, you are in the battle of Zhenbeiguan. Except for Dorgon and the Manchu Eight Banners officers who resisted, so many Eight Banners Army sergeants knelt down and surrendered. Denglai New Army Sergeant

It didn’t kill them. Also, there were so many Eight Banners family members who left Shenyang and Tieling, and most of them were old, weak, women and children. If the sergeants of Denglai’s New Army took action, how could these people survive?”

"How did the Manchus of the Later Jin Dynasty treat us Han people? I don't need to say more. You know that if you retaliate in kind, it will be difficult to vent your anger by killing all the Manchus. However, the court knows very well that after the small court of the Later Jin Dynasty was destroyed, the Manchus were also the great Wu people."

If our people kill innocent people indiscriminately, they will be in trouble with themselves."

"Bumu Butai, what you are most concerned about is probably Fulin. Denglai's new army has long discovered Fulin's traces. I have given them the order not to touch Fulin. The Qing Dynasty has been destroyed. Fulin
