In the fourth day of the October 19th year of Jiashen, Xiaoyu, Beijing, Prince Rui's Mansion.

"Bang!" A teapot filled with hot tea was thrown to the ground by Dorgon. Countless tea leaves and water splashed. The servants serving each other were silent, fearing that they would touch the mold and lose their lives.

Three days ago, the lord of the Qing Dynasty, the six-year-old Fulin, officially moved the capital from Shengjing Shenyang from Shengjing to Beijing, issued an edict to establish the throne in the Huangjimen Zhangshiwang, and next year was the first year of Shunzhi. At this point, the power center of the Qing Dynasty was officially moved from outside the pass to the pass. The great cause that the grandfather had not completed for two generations was actually a perfect stroke by a six-year-old child, which really responded to his name. Fulin and blessings came.

Seeing Fulin facing the south and north, Dorgon was very sad, and that position should have been his, but he failed to sit on it. This was his eternal pain. Now, although he monopolized the power of the regent, he was not the emperor after all! When Nurhaci returned to heaven, he left a will to order Dorgon to take over the throne of Khan, and Dabeile Daishan assisted him, but Daishan turned to support Huang Taiji to make Dorgon lose his throne of Khan. After Huang Taiji's great power, he not only suppressed Dorgon many times, but also took Nurhaci's encrusted yellow flags that Nurhaci left to Dorgon's brothers to change to the two white flags. If Dorgon had not made great contributions many times, he would have been imprisoned by Huang Taiji and died of depression.

After Huang Taiji's death, Dorgon's brother Ajige's younger brother Dodo once wanted to use force to get rid of Prince Su Haoge and Lianghuangqi, the eldest son of Huang Taiji who might threaten Dorgon's ascension to the throne. Dorgon set out in order to avoid internal divisions to support Huang Taiji's ninth son Fulin, because Prince Su Haoge's strength is not weaker than Dorgon. Moreover, Dorgon discovered that Prince Zheng Jirgalang had the intention of not standing by Huang Taiji's son. If he fought hard, the victory would still be unpredictable. So Dorgon endured it and refused to send it. He even killed two confidants Adali and Shuotuo who wanted to advise him, in order to wait until his strength was strong enough to overwhelm Haoge's side before taking action to seize the throne.

After nearly a year of hard work, Dorgon weakened Haoge's power a lot. Except for the four famous generals of the two yellow flags, Oboi, Sony, Tulai and Turge, other forces supporting Haoge have been divided and disintegrated by Dorgon. However, these four people not only had heavy troops after the founding fathers of the Qing Dynasty. When they urgently needed people, Dorgon did not want to stir up an uncontrollable mutiny, so he mainly wooed these four people, but the results were not great.

While strengthening himself, Dorgon suppressed Haoge's power and undermined another regent, Jirgalang, became the actual ruler of the Qing Dynasty. However, he never forgot his desire to covet the throne. However, Dorgon, who was talented and generous, was in a dilemma in this matter. Faced with the highest power position and his beloved woman, he was hesitant and did not know how to choose.

Fulin's biological mother, Da Yuer, met and Dorgon when he was young, and Huang Taiji not only seized the Khan throne belonging to Dorgon, but also took away Dorgon's favorite woman. That year, Da Yuer was thirteen years old and Dorgon was only sixteen years old. How could a 16-year-old child beat Huang Taiji who was in power? This incident became an incurable pain in Dorgon's heart.

The reason why Dorgon was angry today is because of Da Yuer. Dorgon is very confident in killing Haoge. While ordering Duoduo on the front line to return to Beijing, he also ordered Haoge, who was in Henan, to return to Beijing and then ascend to the throne and become emperor by himself. When he vaguely revealed this meaning to Da Yuer, he was strongly opposed by Da Yuer. Dorgon had long thought of ascending the throne and enthroning Da Yuer as the queen. But judging from Da Yuer's reaction today, although Da Yuer loves him, she loves her son even more, and is also Huang Taiji's son Fulin, which made Dorgon's mood very out of control.

"Prince, He Luo will ask for a meeting!" An eunuch came to Dorgon to report.

Dorgon took a few deep breaths to calm his mood, "Let him come in!" He Luohui was originally a core figure in Haoge's camp. The reason why Dorgon could successfully divide and dismantle Haoge's forces He Luohui made a great contribution, so Dorgon's heavy use of He Luohui has been promoted to minister.

After He Luohui came in, he swept his eyes and noticed that Dorgon's face was not kind, and immediately warned himself to be careful when speaking, "Slave He Luo will pay tribute to the prince!"

Dorgon nodded, "Get up! Are things going well? Don't give Hauge a chance to bite him back, this time he must be killed."

He Luo would squint his eyes and make a promise, "Don't worry, Prince, this time it was Haoge's crime, and he would not be allowed to deny it. He had already confirmed that the two yellow flags' coat slaves were in charge of military merits, and Haoge could not defend himself."

"Okay! You did a good job this time. From now on, you will serve as the deputy commander of my Zhengbai Banner. Follow Suksaha to serve me well. I will not treat you badly." After listening to He Luohui's report, Dorgon felt much better than before.

He Luo knew very well that although he had been promoted to minister by Dorgon, he had never had a military rank. The Qing Dynasty was the most important military merit. Today, Dorgon asked him to take over the deputy commander of the Zhengbai Banner to make him very happy. It would be easy to go to the battlefield to gang up and get a duke and count Dangdang in the future!

"The prince, Tulai, Obai and others are Haoge's confidant ministers. Should we take this opportunity to eliminate future troubles? If they hadn't obstructed it at that time, the prince would have been in the position as the great treasure." He Luo would have wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of his mortal rivals, Obai and others, because he betrayed Dorgon and turned his back to Dorgon, which made him hate him very much, making him dare not sleep soundly!

Dorgon shook his head and denied, "Tu Lai Aobai and others are brave generals. It is not advisable to take action against them when using people at this time. Sony is very hateful. Let him go back to Shengjing to guard the tomb!"

At the same time, in the Forbidden City, a thirty-year-old widow was holding her young son and crying silently. They were Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang and Emperor Shunzhi Fulin. Da Yuer had a big fight with Dorgon today. When she heard that Dorgon was going to replace Fulin, she strongly opposed it. Although she knew that Dorgon only loved her one woman in this life, and that was her position as the queen after Dorgon ascended the throne, she still couldn't let go, that was the son Fulin in her arms, she was abandoned.

She is a woman or a mother. She knows very well that Dorgon has no good feelings for Huang Taiji's sons because of her jealousy. Although Fulin is her son, Dorgon still looks down on him. Once Dorgon ascends the throne, Fulin will be in danger. If she has a son with Dorgon, then Fulin's fate may be imprisoned for the rest of her life. This worry makes her strongly oppose Dorgon ascends the throne, and for this reason she hurts the heart of her beloved man.

Da Yuer knew Dorgon very well. The reason why Dorgon didn't dare to tell her openly that he wanted to depose Fulin and ascend the throne was because there were still forces that could prevent him from ascending the throne. Prince Su Haoge and Prince Zheng Jirgalang would not let Dorgon ascend the throne. The power of these two people is gradually being weakened. Once one day only their orphans and widows are left, will Dorgon discuss with her?

"Mother Emperor!" Although Fulin was only six years old, he was very sensible. He stretched out his little hand to wipe the tears on Da Yu'er's face, "Mother Emperor Emperor did not cry!"

Da Yuer knew that her son was also frightened by Dorgon, so she wiped her tears and hugged Fulin on her lap, "My mom won't cry, my mom won't cry!" Even though she said that, her tears couldn't stop.

"Don't worry, when Fulin grows up, he will definitely protect the emperor from being bullied by the emperor's uncle." Fulin accidentally saw Dorgon and Da Yu'er walking in the clouds and rain, and thought that it was also a kind of bullying! After he gradually became sensible, he realized that it was a shame to him.

After coaxing Fulin to sleep, Da Yuer was restless. Years of court life had already made her realize that her life was inseparable from the struggle for power. In order to maintain the strength of the Korchin tribe, she did not hesitate to marry Huang Taiji with her aunt. Today, her greatest responsibility is to protect her son and keep her son's throne. She loved Dorgon very much and even gave her virginity to Dorgon. However, the cruel reality she experienced told her that Dorgon could love her very much but could not tolerate her son Fulin. From today on, she would have to be more careful, otherwise her son would not have a long life.

Hong Chengchou was stunned when he received the imperial edict from Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang to the warm cabinet of the Forbidden City. Because Fan Wencheng was also there, he suddenly realized that the Empress Dowager called him and Fan Wencheng for the sake of the Regent! Thinking of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang Hong Chengchou couldn't help but think about it.

Fan Wencheng thought more profoundly than Hong Chengchou. He could basically understand the thoughts of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang. Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang is a very smart woman, smart, knowledgeable, talented. Her virtuousness and beauty are well known to everyone. Facing the two powerful camps, it would be strange if she was silent to the end!

After Hong Chengchou greeted Fan Wencheng, he was still thinking about Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang. He had a personal experience of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's beauty. This woman is so charming, and her every frown and smile is full of temptation. Hong Chengchou does not regret falling under the skirt of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang. Now he is content with his smile and charming eyes. It is enough to imprint Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's beauty in his mind. He can spend his whole life savoring, although the pain of longing will never be resolved.

"Brother Yan Yan, the Empress Dowager may be the regent this time. It really makes it difficult for you and me to deal with it!" Fan Wencheng had finished thinking and said to Hong Chengchou as he was worried.

Hong Chengchou also understood that Dorgon had the ambition to abolish Fulin and establish himself. "Brother Xiandou was too worried. You and I both got the trust of Emperor Taizong. We should try our best to protect the emperor and the queen mother. I don't think the Regent would do too much."

"It's hard to say! If Prince Su and others had not stopped the regent from ascending the throne last year, the regent's power is even stronger now. Prince Su and Prince Zheng have been kicked out of the core of power to protect themselves, and it is worrying, and you and I can't dissuade the regent. If the regent announces the deposed emperor, what are the faces of you and I to go down to meet Emperor Taizong!" Fan Wencheng said with a worried look on his face. He admired the regent's ability. Regent Dorgon does have the ability to be an emperor, but now the throne has been passed on to Taizong's son Fulin. If Fulin makes another war to fight for the throne, it will be very unfavorable to the Qing Dynasty.

"The Queen Mother is here!"

With the eunuch's voice, the pearl curtain was lifted, and Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang stepped slowly from outside, "Let the two adults wait for a long time." As he said that, Da Yuer glanced at Hong Chengchou with a charming look.

Hong Chengchou's heart became tighter and looser. After a few years, she was not only becoming more and more charming when she spoke Chinese more and more beautifully. A dark green cheongsam embroidered with a dark phoenix and a bright yellow soft satin horse clip. She looked dignified and elegant, making her skin look white, her cheeks were rouge, and a little red lips, and she looked indescribable.

"The two adults are important officials of the Qing Dynasty. When the late emperor was alive, he was very kind to the two adults. The Ai family is straightforward today. Please ask the two adults to see the pity of the late emperor's mother and son." Da Yu'er had just cried, and she looked even more charming at this time.

Fan Wencheng and Hong Chengchou looked at the beautiful and young empress dowager in front of him. Both of them knew why she said that. The regent's behavior recently was indeed a bit out of style. He did not salute Emperor Shunzhi when he went to court. Although Emperor Shunzhi was the king of a country, the regent scolded Emperor Shunzhi was almost the same as scolding cats and dogs. All civil and military officials in the court knew that there was a regent but not Shunzhi. Everyone knew that the regent had the power. Everyone knew that others wanted to flatter but could not beat him up. Who dared to say that the regent was not? Besides, all civil and military officials in the court became the regent's confidant, and everyone was flattering, and everyone was accusing him. Who would dare to mention it?

Hong Chengchou looked at the charming appearance of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, and felt pity in his heart, "The Empress Dowager should not be too worried. I and Lord Fan will risk their lives to advise the Regent. I think that since the Regent has helped the Emperor set up Yanjing, he will do his best to assist the Emperor."

Fan Wencheng shook his head in his heart, Hong Chengchou didn't say the point! What the Regent did recently seemed to have founded a foundation for Emperor Shunzhi, but in fact it was laying the foundation for his future ascension. If he wanted to stop the Regent from coveting the throne, he probably had to do his own efforts! The entire Qing Dynasty knew about the romantic affairs of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang and Dorgon or a love that was stronger than Jin. Nothing to say at the moment was useless. There was no one else who could play a role except Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang himself.

Da Yu'er sighed and glanced at Hong Chengchou with resentful eyes, meaning you are fooling me! But Da Yu'er also knew that Hong Chengchou comforted her and was also for her good, "Mr. Fan?"

Fan Wencheng frowned. He said that he had a deeper relationship with Huang Taiji than Dorgon. He was not valued at first with Nurhaci. He was given to him today by Huang Taiji. It was his duty to preserve Xiaozhuang and his son, but the situation in front of him really made him unable to deal with it. Dorgon had actually controlled the Qing Dynasty by combining military and political power. Isn’t Dorgon the final decision to be the emperor?

Looking at the four treasures of the study placed on the warm cabinet table, Fan Wencheng walked over and wrote a few words on Xiaozhuang and Hong Chengchou and handed them to the eunuch, "Empress Dowager, Weichen feels a little uncomfortable, so let's leave for the time being."

Seeing that Fan Wencheng was about to leave, Hong Chengchou was not good enough to stay. While thinking about what Fan Wencheng wrote, he said he would leave. Da Yuer's profound eyes made him stagger and almost slip.

Hong Chengchou took a few steps to catch up with Fan Wencheng, "Brother Xiandou..." Hong Chengchou really wanted to know what Fan Wencheng wrote to Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.

Fan Wencheng smiled indifferently, "Brother Yan Yan, you and I are both ministers of the Qing Dynasty. We are different from Manchus. It is not someone who wants to be loyal but the Qing Dynasty. This is our duty as a minister. No matter who becomes this emperor, as long as the Qing Dynasty does not perish, it will not hinder us! Listen to my brother's advice, staying away from the struggle for imperial power is a way to preserve the country. The destiny of the country is not something you and I can control, and we don't have the ability at all."

Hong Chengchou also knew this truth. After sighing, he looked at Fan Wencheng, "Brother Xiandou, do you think I want to leave the capital?" If Hong Chengchou had expected that, the matter of him and Fan Wencheng entering the palace to meet Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang would immediately reach Dorgon's ears. Fan Wencheng did not tell him what he wrote to Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang. He thought it would be better to leave this place of trouble. Although he was very worried about Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, wouldn't it be even more uncomfortable to see her sad and unable to help.

"It's good that Yan Yan left. In fact, the Regent had already intended to transfer you from the capital's strategic center. This time the Regent summoned Prince Su back to Beijing and would probably kill him. When the Regent eliminated Prince Su, you will definitely be sent out to the management's strategic center."
