Chapter 340 Convert to Buddhism

"The Qing Dynasty was the last unified feudal dynasty in history, with a total of eleven emperors and a reign of 276 years."

"In fact, the Qing Dynasty should be counted as thirteen emperors, but in terms of our country, the first two are not counted, because when Nurhaci and Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne, they still called their country "Dajin". According to Dingding Zhongyuan said that the first emperor of the Qing Dynasty should be Shunzhi."

"But it cannot be denied that others conquered the world. I will talk about one of the founding generals here - Dorgon."

"Dorgon was an important politician and military general in the early Qing Dynasty. He was the fourteenth son of Nurhachi, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and the younger brother of Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji."

"Dorgon showed outstanding talent and wisdom at a young age."

"During the early political struggles of the Qing Dynasty, Dorgon received a lot of experience and training. He accompanied his father on many expeditions and participated in the Qing Dynasty's war against the Ming Dynasty."

"In 1626, Nurhaci, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, passed away, and Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne."

"During this period, Dorgon began to participate in political struggles."

"Through his close cooperation with Huang Taiji, he gradually gained the trust and importance of Huang Taiji."

"During Huang Taiji's reign, Dorgon held many official positions. He once served as minister of internal affairs, minister of bodyguards, minister of internal history and other important positions."

"He has performed well in these positions and has been praised and affirmed by Huang Taiji."

"Dorgon played an important role in the Qing Dynasty's war against the Ming Dynasty."

"He led the Qing army to attack the Ming Dynasty many times and achieved many victories."

"During these wars, Dorgon demonstrated outstanding military talent and commanding abilities."

"During the BJ Rebellion in 1644, Dorgon and Huang Taiji's eldest son Haoge jointly led the Qing army into the pass and successfully captured BJ."

"This incident marked the Qing Dynasty's official conquest of the country and made Dorgon an important hero of the Qing Dynasty."

"After the death of Huang Taiji in 1643, the failure of Hauge and Dorgon to compete for the throne resulted in a power vacuum within the Qing Dynasty."

"During this period, Dorgon supported the 9-year-old Fulin to take the throne, and even served as regent for his imperial father, becoming the actual ruler of the Qing Dynasty."

"As regent, Dorgon took a series of measures to consolidate his power."

"He strengthened centralization and weakened the power of local officials, making the power of the Qing Dynasty more centralized."

"He also enhanced the Qing Dynasty's national strength by reorganizing the army and strengthening financial management."

"However, Dorgon also had some controversies during his tenure as regent."

"He weakened Haug's power through a series of means, which led to Haug's eventual deposition."

"In addition, he consolidated his power by supporting his own forces, which made the internal conflicts of the Qing Dynasty more complicated."

"In 1650, Dorgon died at the age of 38."

"Although there were some controversies during his tenure as regent, his death still had a great impact on the Qing Dynasty."

"He laid the foundation for the establishment and development of the Qing Dynasty and made important contributions to the establishment of the Qing Dynasty's dominance in the flower-growing country."

"Why would I talk about Dorgon alone? There are many unofficial records about this later generation who had a certain affair with Xiaozhuang."

"We have no way of knowing this, but Dorgon is still worth talking about alone."

"Fu Lin, the ninth son of Huang Taiji, who is only six years old, has inherited the throne."

"It was just the first year after he took the throne, the first year of Shunzhi. Many major events that affected history happened in this year."

"Li Zicheng captured the city of Beijing, and Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty hanged himself." "The Qing Dynasty moved the capital to BJ after discussions between Dorgon, Baylor, and the prince."

"At six years old, that is, a child, he still doesn't understand what politics is."

"It can be said that Dorgon handled all government affairs at that time."

"Eight years after Dorgon became regent, he unfortunately died while out hunting."

"After that, Shunzhi began to take charge."

"" Faced with economic decline and a lot of waste waiting to be revitalized, he adopted a gentle policy of "recruiting surrender to eliminate chaos" in response to the Manchu-Han conflict, and also used Hong Chengchou to manage Huguang, Yunnan and Guizhou and other places, laying the foundation for the future unification of the country. "

"These policies reflect his wise strategy and lofty ambitions."

"It's a pity that this Emperor Shunzhi is an emperor who does not love the country but loves the beauty."

Cao Cao: Is there really an emperor who doesn’t love the country and loves beauty? Although I, Cao, love beauties, I can’t compare them to Daye.

Zhu Yuanzhang: Humph! Why not? Not everyone is the same as you.

Zhu Di: It goes without saying that my father is the emperor and my mother is the queen.

Zhu Yuanzhang: My sister is so good, of course I want my sister. When I get older, I hope to see this great country with my sister.

Li Shimin: Few, very few. Even I have to admit that I love Jiangshan more.

"Slowly in the course of history, there were emperors who advocated Taoism. For example, Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty spent most of his life cultivating elixirs and refining medicine. There were emperors who loved the Buddha, wore ancient green lantern Buddhas, wore wooden fish cassocks, and only prayed for Amitabha, such as Emperor Shunzhi, the ancestor of the Qing Dynasty. .”

"For Shunzhi, I have to talk about the sad and touching love story between him and Concubine Dong E."

"Shunzhi had two queens, both of whom were daughters of Mongolian emperors. The first was Meng Guqing, a Borjit family, who was later demoted to concubine Jing. The other was Queen Xiaokangzhang, also a Borjit family."

"Both of them were not what he wanted, until Concubine Dong E appeared."

"Concubine Dong E was versatile, gentle and considerate. She touched Shunzhi's heart invisibly and was regarded as a lifelong friend. She was first named a "virtuous concubine", and soon she was promoted to "imperial concubine". She was also granted amnesty to the whole world. This honor is unprecedented. "

"Not long after, Concubine Dong E gave birth to a son for Shunzhi. Shunzhi was originally very happy about this."

"Sadly, the child died three months later."

"Concubine Dong E suffered a great blow from then on. Her body became weaker and weaker day by day. She fell ill and passed away."

"The last thing Shunzhi missed in this world disappeared in an instant."

"His inner pillar completely collapsed."

"Under such extreme helplessness, he chose to become a monk. The only way out was to escape into Buddhism."

Xiaozhuang: I never thought it would be this kind of marriage. As a mother-in-law, I am so heartbroken! How can you become a monk?

Queen Ma: Only a mother knows what this feels like.

Dugu Jialuo: My two sons, even if they have done so many wrong things, they deserve to die, but won’t it be uncomfortable for the mother?

Li Qingzhao: Love is beautiful, but love is so poignant that I wish I had never encountered it.

Qin Shihuang: It shouldn’t be that easy for an emperor to enter Buddhism, right?
