Chapter 4: Congratulations from all sides (4)
Although Huang Taiji gave Haoge a smile of praise on the surface and praised him for his effective work in the Investigation Office, he was actually slightly unhappy. As a monarch, what he least wanted was his minister to do things outside the framework he had defined, and even if that person was his son, he would not do it.
Without constraints, ambition will be born, so what a monarch wants to see most is that the ministers put their position in the right place and do what they should do. Of course, a little bit of extraordinary behavior can still tolerate a monarch with a strong sense of power. I hope that Haoge is just a momentary loyalty and wants to compete for merit in front of him, and there is no other intention.
"Great Khan, Weichen also received the news that Chahar Mongolian Lin Dankhan sent his younger brother Litu Taiji to the Ming Dynasty. Lord Sony learned the news and wanted to use Litu Tu's advantages to test his true intention of coming to the Ming Dynasty. He didn't want the other party to be really..." As he said that, Fan Wencheng felt that he could not bear to face.
"Mr. Fan, what is the other party really? Why do you always like to say something or leave something? It's so anxious!" Yue Tuo said in great impatience. The palace was full of young heroes from Dajin. Everyone knew the wealth and prosperity of the Southern Dynasty. Seeing Sony in the Ming Dynasty, he was free and happy, and everyone was envious. Now that something happened to Sony, he wanted him to give up his position so that he could take it.
"I already know this. Fan Aiqing, give Sony the order to let him go to Shengjing." Huang Taiji obviously knew Sony's affairs in the Ming Dynasty, but he was unwilling to mention it. However, if he didn't mention it, how could these ministers under him know the seriousness of the situation? Therefore, he said half of it and left half for them to guess. The news will not reach Shengjing for the time being.
"Reporting to the Khan, Sony was young and energetic for a while, so he asked the Khan to give up his temper." Xifu hurriedly stood up and pleaded with mercy. After all, Sony is his elder brother's parent-child and his nephew. The younger generation in the family is the only one who is very outstanding. Perhaps the future of the family is on him, so he naturally has to try his best to maintain it.
"I have my own sense of responsibility." Huang Taiji sent Sony back not only because of Sony's ugly incident, but more because he was afraid that young people would not be able to withstand the temptation of the prosperous and extravagant life in the Southern Dynasties and were worn out. This was the loss of the Great Jin Kingdom. Especially he was very optimistic about Sony and did not want to destroy a talent like this. Perhaps returning to Shengjing might exert more important power.
A trace of gloom flashed in Xifu's eyes. Although he had been with the king for many years, his master's thoughts were not as good as Fan Wencheng. Fan Wencheng's thoughts on Huang Taiji were as clear as possible. Once Sony came back, he might be derogatory for a while, but he would soon be reused. Of course, this depends on Sony's own performance.
"Khan, if the rumors are really done by the Nanming, then I, Dajin, will be even more cautious in my actions in the future." Fan Wencheng Yi said with some advice.
"Mr. Fan means that I, Dajin, have a spy hidden by Nanming?" None of the people in the hall were fools, and almost all heard what Fan Wencheng said.
"This is not impossible. The Han people are the most unreliable!" Dai Shan snorted coldly. He was still a little dissatisfied with Huang Taiji's emphasis on Fan Wencheng and other Han people.
"Yes, I suggest that all Han ministers and Han generals investigate, and spies will definitely have nowhere to hide!" Mangguertai said loudly. He firmly distrusts the Han ministers' faction, and he will naturally not let him go if he has the opportunity to exclude and target Han ministers.
"Khan, this matter must not be done. If the spy really exists, it will definitely be hidden very deeply, otherwise it would have been discovered long ago. If it is a large-scale investigation, not only will the spy be alarmed, but the Han ministers who surrender to the Khan and serve the Khan will be in danger. At that time, they will no longer trust the Khan, and it will be too late to cause a huge change. Weichen suggested that no one in the hall today should disclose the news that the Khan had a spy. Even the closest people cannot say it. At the same time, they secretly investigate all the Han, Meng, and Jurchen officials who can contact the secrets of Dajin. It should not be difficult to find the spy." Fan Wencheng suggested.
It is definitely the stupidest way to make big fuss. No one of the superiors would do this. This will make everyone under his subordinates feel uneasy and make people feel uneasy. Especially at the critical moment of this rumor, looking for spies with big fuss must confirm that the fact that the Later Jin Dynasty was going to send troops to Chahar was not achieved in the effect of a quick battle. This is extremely unfavorable to the Later Jin Dynasty. It should be noted that the Ming Dynasty was eyeing it on the side, and Huang Taiji asked himself that there was no big problem in defeating Chahar Mongolia, but if the Ming court intervened, the ending would be difficult to predict.
"Great Khan, I think no matter whether I am a Dajin hidden spies or there are no spies at all, we just make random guesses. Now we need to figure out what the purpose of Nanming doing this is. Is he trying to provoke a war between the Dajin and Chahar Mongolia, and to reap the benefits of the fisherman? Or is there any other purpose?" Dorgon said.
This sound of the sound of the morning bell and evening drum woke everyone present. Fan Wencheng was even more arrogant about Dorgon. Nurhaci's vision was indeed powerful. The heir he chose was indeed extraordinary. If Nurhaci had not died too early, Huang Taiji would not have been the turn of the Later Jin Dynasty to do it in the future.
After hearing this, Huang Taiji was also secretly alert in his heart. Dorgon made many military achievements in recent years and his prestige in the army continued to rise, especially the two white flags under the control of their three brothers. Although he would send him to charge forward every time to consume his strength, the two flags became stronger and stronger, and gradually became the most capable force among the Eight Banners. This also made him secretly jealous, especially when he forced Abahai, the mother of Dorgon's three brothers to death. He did not believe that these three brothers would not have any hatred for him. This was his heart disease!
"Yes, 14th brother, for you, what is the purpose of Nanming this time?" Huang Taiji asked in a deep voice, and a trace of cold light flashed in the eagle's eyes.
"My brother is stupid and I haven't had time to think about it." Dorgon also knew that he was a thorn in Huang Taiji's heart, so hiding his weakness was his instinctive reaction. The more he performed too well, the more he made Huang Taiji jealous, the less he had no chance to stand out.
"Well, you go back." Huang Taiji waved his hand with a smile.
"Khan, the Southern people have always been cunning and scheming, so we should be careful." Xifu said cautiously.
"What Xifu's beloved minister makes sense. I also feel that this time the rumors are not simple. The Ming court likes to attract but does not release them, and it will be thunderous." Huang Taiji said in a deep thought.
"The purpose of the Ming court and Chahar Mongolian marriage was to use the Chahar Mongolia to fight and consume the strength of our Dajin. This is an indisputable fact. However, except for the mutual market, the Ming court seemed to have never directly intervened in the internal affairs of our Dajin and Mongolia. This time, I suddenly reached out and had something to do, Dahan." Fan Wencheng thought for a while and said that he had analyzed it.
"According to Lord Fan, is Nan Ming going to interfere with the grudge between us and Chahar Mongolia?" Manguertai glared at Fan Wencheng disapprovingly, obviously extremely contemptuous and disbelief of what he said.
"It is impossible for Nanming to sit idly by and watch us destroy Chahar Mongolia. They will sooner or later." Xifu supported Fan Wencheng's opinion.
"The war is fierce and dangerous. The Nanming country has just been pacified and wants to interfere in external affairs. It seems that the little emperor of Nanming is also a powerful soldier and warlike person." Dai Shan sneered.
Huang Taiji didn't think so in his heart. Dai Shanyong was brave, but he was a person without great wisdom. Zhu Yinglong's novel quotes were collected through Fan Wencheng's intelligence agency and presented to his imperial shore. The more he studied it in depth, the more he felt that the little emperor of the Chongzhen of Nanming was as wise as the sea, and he felt that it was unfathomable. Being an opponent with such a person was not an easy task. He was very powerful and was very happy to be a meritorious person, just people who didn't know how to pretend to understand made ignorant and crazy words.
Huang Taiji and Fan Wencheng, who was standing under the steps, quietly changed their eyes. They both knew that this battle would be fought sooner or later, but should it be launched in advance, delayed, or inconvenient to follow the established plan? This is the biggest problem that Huang Taiji thought.
I originally wanted to hear the opinions of everyone, but I didn't know that after discussing, the differences in opinions were more. So Huang Taiji, who had a headache, announced that all the ministers had dispersed, leaving behind four people, Fan Wencheng, Dai Shan, Haoge and Dorgon.
"Sony is back, who do you think you should send to be this minister?" Huang Taiji asked first.
It is absolutely impossible for Han ministers to recommend the minister. Fan Wencheng knew that he couldn't speak, so he simply kept silent.
Silence is gold. Dorgon's performance just now was so eye-catching, so even if there is someone to choose, he will not be the first to express his opinion.
The remaining Haoge and Daishan were there. Haoge was determined to interfere in the affairs of the secret spies in Nanming, but he was not a fool. Although Huang Taiji praised him in the hall just now, he must be unhappy to interfere in Nanming's intelligence affairs at will. If he recommended anyone at this time, he would not agree to keep Huang Taiji, so he bowed his head respectfully and did not speak.
The three of them didn't speak, and Daishan was the only one left. Daishan didn't know who was suitable. There were countless military generals among the Jin people, but there were not many civil officials who were good at observing words and expressions, but they were good at dancing. So Daishan casually recommended one: Ganglin.
Huang Taiji vetoed it. Ganglin has a bad temper. The minister cannot be considered good by knowledge. He not only needs to be flexible, but also has to be wise and wise. He also has to give up his dignity at any time, endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens, etc.
"It's better to just Sahazi. He is proficient in the writings of the Mongolian, Han and Jurchen tribes, and is good at making changes. He is my nephew, and he is the most suitable candidate!" Huang Taiji said with the final say.
Chapter completed!
