Chapter 31 Mangultai
I received a call from Liu Ye early in the morning, and then I realized that she had arrived in Changchun and was driving to find us.
Daya and I guessed that the time was almost over, so we walked to the countryside to welcome Liuye. Although she was not very familiar with this place, there was only one countryside road in the town that was facing south, so we didn’t have to worry about taking the wrong path.
Just after noon, I saw the Volvo off-road vehicle coming from a distance. Daya and I stood by the roadside and waved our hands. The car was close to us and stopped. Maybe it was because of the long-distance travel or because we had not slept well these days, and the willow leaves looked a little haggard and listless. They only opened their eyes and relaxed their eyebrows when they saw us, and smiled happily.
When Lao Gutou first saw a car entering his yard, he was a little surprised, so he left the door and stood at the door and looked out. When he saw Daya and I came out of the car, he was a little shocked. Daya and I could only make up a lie, saying that Liu Ye was our colleague, who came from the city and took us back.
After Daya and Lao Gutou made some polite words, we took Liuye back to the house to rest.
Fortunately, the west room was a suite, two rooms, and the willow leaves were arranged in the room. The room did not break out during the day, the kang was burning hot, and the room was very warm. After Lao Gutou left, the three of us sat together and started to talk about their respective situations in the past few days.
Daya and I first told Liu Ye about the things recorded in the appendix of the Lao Gutou family tree, and then talked about some relevant historical materials we found on the Internet. Liu Ye listened carefully and asked some questions from time to time. After Daya and I finished talking, Liu Ye nodded, then looked at us and said, "I have studied this history for a while and learned some little-known things. I will tell you about it, which may be of some help."
Then, Liuye took off her shoes and went to the kang with great care, sat cross-legged at the head of the pit, warming her body while telling her story.
In fact, Nurhaci's greater function of awarding these four major beloruss at that time was to be the subordinate of Prince Chu Ying, who was both an auxiliary and a balance force. But he didn't expect that Prince Chu Ying was also a master who could not support the wall. He made mistakes repeatedly and was eventually executed.
Da Beile Daishan was born to Nurhaci's legitimate wife Tong Jia, who was the first wife of Nurhaci's shared sufferings. Daishan was very brave and good at fighting when he was young. After Nurhaci executed the prince Chu Ying, he became a popular candidate for succession. The tree attracted the wind. It is said that the little concubine of Huang Taiji's "entourage" Nurhaci framed the concubine Ulanara Abahai, the biological mother of Dorgon, to attack Daishan and said that there was something ambiguous between them. He killed two birds with one stone and forced the Da Beile, who was the most promising succession to the throne.
Er Beile Amin is the son of Nurhaci's younger brother Shurhazi, and Huang Taiji's cousin. Although he is proactive in fighting and has made great achievements in military affairs, he cannot be compared with the other three major Beals after all.
These three Beile Mangurtai are very mysterious, not because of her own mystery, but because of the lack of relevant historical records. Most of them were destroyed at that time. He is the fifth son of Nurhaci, and his mother is Gundae, one of the great concubines. He is beautiful and lively, and speaks straightforwardly. Nurhaci also likes him very much. He has been favored for a long time, but in the end he had an ambiguous relationship with her guards on his back and was killed by Murhaci in anger.
Mangu Ertai was highly valued for a long time, and he made many military achievements and overwhelmed other brothers. He was also the only one on the battlefield. However, Mangu Ertai had a bad temper, brave but not resourceful, and was a martial artist. He had many fierce quarrels with Huang Taiji and sang against Huang Taiji on stage, and repeatedly made things difficult for Huang Taiji.
The Sibei Huang Taiji was the only son of Nurhaci's beloved wife, Yehennara Menggu. As Menggu's only son, he was loved by Nurhaci, but his combat performance on the battlefield was average and he was always responsible for money, grain and income. He was very scheming and later succeeded to the throne to become the emperor.
After hearing this, Daya blinked his little eyes and curled his lips: "That's what these people have never played Huang Taiji, that old boy. Huang Taiji's methods are so ugly. I didn't expect that this boy Manguertai was so crazy. He probably was playing lanterns in the thatched cottage, just looking for death (shock)."
Liu Ye smiled helplessly and continued: "There are many tit-for-tat things recorded in history between Manguertai and Huang Taiji. Of course, there is no good ending if he offended the emperor. In 1632, Manguertai died of illness. What's even more unfortunate is that a few years later, a servant reported that their brother and sister had burned oaths and planned to usurp the throne. Sixteen wooden signs were found in the home, all of which were written by the seal of the Jin emperor, and were convicted of a serious crime of corruption. Later, Manguertai's tomb was destroyed by the Ministry of Works of the Qing Dynasty. The bones that had been cold were thrown into chaos. All the gold and silver vessels that were buried with the burial were taken out. It was not until more than 70 years later that Kangxi ordered the descendants of Manguertai to restore their descendants to their clans and reenter the clans."
Listen to Liu Ye talking about this little-known history, like a family matter, it comes in an orderly manner.
After hearing Liu Ye say this, Daya kept sighing: "You said that old man Nurhaci is the same. Just tell me clearly who is the emperor, and you can do such a lot of things and make your children kill each other. What secrets are more important than passing on the throne? If you have time to summon seven people to protect a secret, it is better to find a bunch of people, pronounce an order, and indicate the heirs."
Actually, I just thought of this. Only now do I understand how complicated and mysterious the matter we are going to investigate is, and its importance is even greater than that of Xia Zhao before his death.
Or Nurhaci didn't expect that he would die so quickly and did not have time to pass the throne. Of course, there is also a possibility that Nurhaci had a will, but he was pressed down because of some reasons.
However, I think the biggest possibility is that Nurhaci doesn't want to clarify who inherits the Khan throne. He probably already knows in his heart who has the ability to inherit his Khan throne. The thing he told before his death should be the same as or even more important thing as the priest of the Khan throne.
All three of us sat on the kang and kept talking about these old things from the Qing Dynasty, but most of us could only guess and speculate, because historical materials seemed to be broken in that era, and there were not many records left behind. It was shocking that there were not enough records in this genealogy of the ancient master's family.
After hearing Liu Ye talk about the fact that Manguertai was accused of usurping the throne, Da Ya was a little puzzled: "Does this brother and sister have any brain problems? They burned the oath and planned to usurp the throne? Just in a dark room, light a few incense sticks and carve a few signs, it works? This fool knows that it is useless? I really can't understand what these people think. It's better to do some serious things than having that skill."
After hearing Daya say this, I also feel this way. Even if Mangourtai is a reckless person, he would not do such stupid things, right?
Liu Ye looked at us like a mirror and said, "I have indeed doubted this point, and I have looked up a lot of historical materials, but they are all just a few words and are vague. Thinking of the death of Nurhaci, Chu Ying, and Huang Taiji, I have another view."
"Usa?" Daya and I looked at Liu Ye and said it at the same time.
Liu Ye nodded: "Yes, I think they are not like burning incense and worshiping Buddha, but more like wizard curse in Usa. And the sixteen so-called golden seals may not be as simple as the emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom. If it were just because of this, it would be fine if the entire clan died, and they would not have been opened to corpses for many years after death. In ancient times, even if they were unforgivable people, they might not have been treated like this after death."
After hearing what Liu Ye said, I suddenly remembered something: "I remember historical records that the prince Chu Ying was also deposed. He secretly wrote the names of his father Nurhaci and his younger brothers on paper, and cursed them. Later, he was discovered and executed. The two brothers were both stupid and had nothing to do. Isn't they so stupid that they had nothing to do and they were fantastic? So I'm sure the incense burning curse recorded in historical materials is the witch curse of "Usa". However, for some reasons, there is no truthful record, and it just passed by the area."
After listening to the results we analyzed, Daya murmured: "The dragon gives birth to the dragon, the phoenix gives birth to the phoenix, and the mouse's son can dig holes. There is a father who pretends to be a god every day, and he makes some sons one by one, and they will kill each other in the opposite direction, and their family style is corrupt!"
Although this is a bit unscrupulous, it does make sense.
Liu Ye suddenly asked again: "Do you know Dorgon?"
Daya and I looked at each other. This name sounds familiar, but we can't tell you how to say it is.
Liu Ye glanced at us and told us that in the seventh year of Shunzhi, Dorgon went to hunt outside Gubeikou and accidentally fell off his horse and fell injured. He was originally just injured, but later he said that he could not be cured and used the wrong medicine and died suddenly in Kala City. He was only 39 years old.
After Liu Ye finished speaking, Daya and I understood what she was going to say.
These great figures who founded the Qing Dynasty all died suddenly, and this way of dying was too strange.
After hearing Liu Ye say it slowly, I said: "Nurhaci is said to have died of ulcer. Mangguertai died suddenly due to unknown reasons. Huang Taiji died suddenly in the palace. Dorgon had a fracture, but he could have used the wrong medicine and died arbitrarily. There are many princes and princes not to mention them. These people seem to die a little unclear, and historical materials dare not clearly record it. I think only abnormal deaths can be called "storm death".
Liu Ye nodded: "I believe they were a kind of witch curse that was captured by Usa, which was similar to a curse, and they would die suddenly. As for whom the witch curse was, we could not imagine, but the most chaotic history of the Qing Dynasty was during this period. I think the final source should be Nurhaci. Perhaps only he knows where these witch curses came from, and may also be related to the secrets kept by the "Seven Dukes of Xingdi".
After hearing Liu Ye say this, Daya and I were a little shocked. It’s not that we haven’t thought about it like this, but we don’t dare to think about it like this. We don’t want to get caught in the grudges of this royal family. There are too many unknowns and too many incredible things in this. If we are not careful, our lives will be gone. In the end, we don’t know how to die.
