Chapter 452: The Confrontation of the Three Emperors (II)


Chapter 143: Confrontation between the Three Emperors In Xuzhou City, the "Imperial Palace" that originally belonged to Wang Ke, the leader of Wenxiang Cult, has now become the residence of Huang Taiji.

Sitting on a luxurious gilded bronze dragon chair, looking at the report from Abatai on the occupation of Yangzhou from the front, Huang Taiji was filled with emotion for a moment: At this time last year, he and several brothers were Fishing on the banks of the Liao River, but at this moment this year, the Eight Banners under his command are already drinking in the Yangtze River.

Everything is as beautiful as a dream.

Another thing that made him feel even more satisfied was an article at hand that looked quite high-end and classy.

"It is the beginning of great fortune, and all nations admire the beginning of the reform.

The principles of cadres are upright, and the benevolence of the new era is promoted in the ninth place.

The land is returned to the sincerity, and the whole world is celebrating.

Respect your majesty, the emperor, inherit the heaven and protect the country, and support the people with virtue.

Xie Rui The picture first appears, the six universes share the divine monarch, and he rises in response to his name in the world.

The mountains and rivers of the eight wildernesses and the sun and the moon shine together, and the country and the sky are together forever.

The ministers and other scholars have built up scholars in the palace, and their seals are slight.

They have inherited the special favors of the past generations.

Now they are celebrating the prosperity of the new dynasty.

They look at the loftiness of the sacred learning and are staggering in fear.

They look up to the emperor's majestic teachings and are deeply admired.

I hope that the quality of jade will be prosperous, and the heart of heaven will be strong, and the gold will be consolidated, and the ministers will pay homage to Xin Wupingying."

Although this gorgeously-worded persuasion form itself is nothing.

Since entering Beijing, Huang Taiji has received several more brilliant persuasion forms than this one.

But the signature at the end of this persuasion form is enough for now. eye-catching This is a descendant of the Confucian saint from Qufu, Shandong Province.

This is the form of persuasion submitted by this generation Shenggong Yan.

Although the Confucian scholars in the world would not obey any orders of Duke Yansheng, the submissive attitude of the Confucius Mansion in Shandong seemed to mean that the current trend of scholars in the world, which had great political implications, was what really satisfied Huang Taiji.

Therefore, Huang Taiji also reciprocated the favor and issued an edict to commend Yan Shenggong's Mansion: "The former sage Confucius is the founder of Taoism for all ages.

At the beginning of the founding of this dynasty, Yiyi Gang was often cultivated here, and the officials worshiped it according to the ceremony.

Merging the title of the four learned scholars can ensure the longevity of the country and the rise of humanities. " If Huang Taiji was very happy with the invitation form presented by Shandong Kong Mansion, then the "teacher's token" presented to Huang Taiji by Wenxiang leader Wang Ke after he was captured and surrendered made him dumbfounded.

Because it is a long fox with a broken tail Decades ago, when Wang Sen, the first leader of the Wenxiang Sect, was preaching in the countryside of Hebei Province, he claimed to have rescued a fairy fox.

The fairy fox cut off its tail and gave it to him, which had a strange fragrance.

Wang Sen used the fox tail to rally his followers, and people Many of them attached themselves to him, and they were called the Wenxiang Sect.

Since the Wenxiang Sect is named after this fox tail, then this "scented" fox tail has naturally become the most noble sacred object in the Wenxiang Sect, and its status is the same as the Buddhist relics and relics of the Buddha.

The "True Cross" of Christianity is almost the same.

If it were another king who received such a thing, it would probably be treated as a rarity at best.

But for Huang Taiji in this time and space, it is an unspeakable shame because among the people of the Central Plains, he has the title of "The Reincarnation of the Demon Fox Daji" The reason why the talented Huang Taiji turned into a vixen in this time and space is generally due to the butterfly effect brought by the time traveler.

In the Ming Dynasty in this time and space, due to the repeated interference of Huang Shi, Chen Xin and other time travellers, the performance of the Jurchen Eight Banners was far less prominent than in another time and space.

Especially on the battlefield in Liaodong, when the menacing Jurchen cavalry were repeatedly beaten by Huangshi's spear infantry in various ways, the so-called battlefield myth of "the Jurchens are invincible if they are not more than ten thousand" became a joke. .

After Huangshi was transferred from Liaodong and moved south to Fujian, under the leadership of Huang Taiji, the power of the Eight Banners soldiers and horses revived again, and they visited Beijing several times.

But in the eyes of the world, the rise of slave-building in Liaodong was not due to the invincibility of the Jurchen cavalry, but to the efforts of Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of the Ming Dynasty, to support the enemy and treason.

But in a sense, this is actually the case In short, until Huang Taiji broke through and entered Beijing last year, based on past experience, both the Ming Dynasty and the public agreed that the so-called Jurchen cavalry was not outstanding, and our Ming army could defeat them with a little effort.

The reason why the Jiannu Tatars have been able to make such a fuss over the years is not because the Jurchen cavalry are too good at fighting.

In fact, these Tatars are very inexperienced.

They often cannot beat General Huangshi's infantry with cavalry.

This is entirely because there are always people in the court.

There was a list of treacherous officials, and there were constant traitors who betrayed the country and framed Zhongliang, which led to such a rotten defeat on the Liaodong front line.

As for why so many civil servants and generals were so obsessed that they defected to the Jurchens one after another as traitors, and even lurked in the court as moles, even if they broke their families and destroyed their families, I guess some of them were among the slaves.

Masters of demon magic are good at bewitching people's hearts, just like the Yellow Turban Taoist in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms era, who can lure away people's souls.

As a result, in the libretto of Beijing storytellers, the Jurchen thief Chief Tai Chi was transformed into a nine-tailed male vixen reincarnated by Daji of the Shang Dynasty.

He was born with a pair of enchanting peach blossom eyes, and his charming skills were superb.

No matter who he was, he was a brave and loyal minister. , a chaste and virtuous girl, as long as she takes one look at this Huang Taiji, her muscles and bones will immediately soften, her mind will be dazzled, and she will be willing to be humble from now on.

For example, Yuan Chonghuan, Governor Yuan, accidentally fell into his evil ways.

From then on, he was completely obedient to Huang Taiji.

He did not hesitate to lose his reputation and kill everyone in his family, but also sent food and money to support the establishment of slaves.

Jiao Zhao killed Mao Wenlong and paralyzed Dongjiang Town, took the initiative to weaken the Great Wall defenses, and finally helped Huang Taiji break through the barriers and enter Beijing, and cooperated inside and outside to seize the Ming Dynasty's 300-year-old state.

Because this matter was said so clearly, some Jurchens and Mongolian dignitaries were skeptical.

There were even secret envoys from the Wenxiang Sect who quietly came to Liaodong, with a whimsical plan to draw Huang Taiji into the sect, and were also preparing to make him the "Supreme Nine-Tailed Great Protector" Huang Taiji, as a hero of the generation, was naturally very angry about such hateful rumors that denied his human identity.

He had also tried to clarify and defend, but unfortunately it had no effect at all.

After the generals in western Liaoning turned against each other and surrendered Shanhaiguan to Huang Taiji last year, the Eight Banners army advanced rapidly in the Central Plains, captured Beijing, settled in Hebei, entered Shanxi, swept through Shandong, and fortified the city of Kaifeng, making the Qing Dynasty powerful all over the world. , but the superstitious saying that "Huang Taiji is a nine-tailed male vixen" has become more and more popular among the people of the Central Plains.

The relevant practical basis is also very sufficient: if the slave chief Taiji was not the nine-tailed male vixen reincarnated by Daji of the Shang Dynasty, then how could the Guan Ning army, who had been supported by the court with heavy sums of money and guarded the country for many years, suddenly collapse collectively?

Ge And how could those Donglin gentlemen in Beijing who had always been upright ignore Shilin Qingyu and resolutely sell themselves to join him?

It is obvious that Huang Taiji has mastered the art of foxy charm, so he seduced their souls.

Well, even this time when Confucius Mansion Yan Shenggong wrote a letter to persuade people to move in, people may think of Huang Taiji's "Fox Charming Magic".

Because such rumors are so noisy in the world, Huang Taiji has now suffered from a certain degree of "fox phobia".

Whenever he hears any words related to foxes, his scalp will feel numb.

Even the clothes he usually wears A fox fur scarf was replaced by a bearskin scarf Under such circumstances, one can easily imagine Huang Taiji's feelings when he saw a fox tail presented by Wenxiang's disciples.

However, he was still an unparalleled hero who would leave his name in history, so he just rubbed his forehead and sighed, and basically regained his composure.

"Hehe, no wonder they actually sent people outside the customs to ask me to do something like the Supreme Nine-tailed Protector.

It turns out that this sect has been burning incense for fox spirits from the very beginning.

Wait, since the Wenxiang Sect originally worshiped foxes, but now it has If you surrender and worship me as your master, wouldn't it be like confirming the rumors circulating outside and proving that I am indeed the nine-tailed male vixen reincarnated by Daji from the Shang Dynasty?"

As soon as he thought of this, Huang Taiji felt dizzy and felt a little bad again.

Fortunately, at this moment, a loud sound of gongs, drums and horns suddenly sounded from outside the door, interrupting his tangled thoughts.

Immediately afterwards, another eunuch pushed the door in and said to Huang Taiji respectfully: "The auspicious time has come to inform Your Majesty.

Please come out of the palace and pay homage to the heaven and earth.

All the ministers have been waiting for a long time."

On July 15, the sixth year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji set up an altar to worship heaven and earth on the outskirts of Xuzhou.

Surrounded by hundreds of civil and military officials, he officially ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.

He accepted the title of "Kuanwen Rensheng Emperor" and was further promoted from Khan of the Qing Dynasty.

As the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

At the same time, Huang Taiji announced that the Qing Dynasty would move its capital to Beijing, change the reign name to Chongde, and consecrate more than ten concubines, thereby completing the identity transformation from barbarian khan to emperor of the Central Plains.

In addition, in order to show the difference from the Wanyan Jurchen Jin Kingdom in the past, Emperor Chongde Huang Taiji ordered the name of the clan to be changed to Manzhou.

After the enthronement ceremony, Huang Taiji, surrounded by ministers, held a grand pilgrimage in the temporarily set up golden tent of the imperial camp.

In addition to the Manchu and Han officials and generals appointed by the Qing court, those who attended the ceremony also attended the ceremony.

There were congratulatory envoys from various Mongolian ministries and Korea.

Even the Yonghe Emperor's court in Nanjing sent an envoy to deliver gifts and tried to take the opportunity to find out the true and false details of the slave establishment.

During this great pilgrimage, the Qing ministers and foreign ministers presented many precious gifts, including red and white coral trees, strings of beads made of amber, coral, pearls, etc., as well as pearl flowers, agarwood, Jade belts, red gold jewelry, jade pots, as well as various large and small cups, plates and exquisite utensils made of jade, rhinoceros horn, glass, agate, gold and silver There are also sable skins, tiger skins, leopard skins, gauze, silk, satin and other high-end clothing materials, ginseng, horses, carved saddles, treasured bows and carved feathers and arrows, tiger skins and leopard skins, exquisite glazed lamps, various Various kinds of precious porcelain, the finest tea and fragrant wood, filigree-gilt armor, Miao knives inlaid with precious stones, etc., were all piled up in the big tent.

In return for these gifts, Huang Taiji ordered "a hundred plays" to be performed for the audience at home and abroad.

Suddenly, the noisy gongs and drums started, followed by a lively instrumental ensemble.

The traditional musical instruments of the Han nationality were mixed with the national musical instruments of Mongolia and Manchuria, which seemed extremely lively.

After the ceremony, they began to perform "Hundred Operas", which seemed to be to bless the emperor's "holy bow and happiness".

The first program was the dragon dance.

This show was supposed to be played at night and was called "Dragon Lantern Playing."

Now that we play during the day, the light in the dragon's belly is no longer needed.

Accompanied by the deafening sound of gongs and drums, a long dragon, equipped with claws and claws, leaped, stretched or bent, hovering in the middle of the courtyard, very majestic.

After the dragon dance, the next show is the lion dance, and after that there are various juggling, wrestling, and dancing.

The dances of Mongolian men are full of vigor and fierceness, while the dances of Jurchens are like dancing to the gods, and some imitate hunting.

They seem to be still in the wild style, so the Han scholar-officials present are disgusted by it and think it is vulgar.

The bad habits of the barbarians are just that they dare not show them in front of the Eight Banners uncle, so they have to force themselves to laugh with them.

Next, it was finally the turn of the Han geishas in long skirts to appear.

Their skirts and hairpins were flying, their dance steps were light, their singing voices were graceful, and their graceful postures were pleasing to the eyes of the Han scholar-bureaucrats, and also made Huang Taiji very satisfied.

By default, He told them to perform the performance several more times.

Afterwards, these captured singing prostitutes were rewarded to the meritorious officials.

Finally, the monarch and his ministers feasted together until they were full of wine and food, and then they left happily.

At this point, as Huang Taiji ascended the throne in Xuzhou and proclaimed himself emperor, a confrontation between the three emperors emerged within the traditional territory of Chinese civilization.

Of course, compared with Emperor Chongzhen who fled like a lost dog in Wuchang City, and Emperor Yonghe who was like a clay puppet in Nanjing City, Huang Taiji was obviously the most popular among the three emperors.

He will soon become the most noble person in the world.

In short, after the Eight Banners soldiers marched into Huainan and drank from the Yangtze River, the new Qing Empire suddenly reached its most glorious peak.

Unfortunately, after the most glorious peak, the next moment is the darkest abyss When "Emperor Chongde" Huang Taiji was sitting on the throne in the Xuzhou military camp, smiling broadly as he accepted the gifts and congratulations from his ministers, while imagining how to conquer the south of the Yangtze River and dominate the world, he had no idea what was happening thousands of miles away.
