During Shunzhi's illness, the funeral ceremony of Dong E, who was posthumously presented as "Empress Duanjing", was still held. The Empress Dowager and the Queen were worried about Shunzhi's condition and hoped that the palace would be held in a small manner, but Shunzhi disagreed and ordered Ru to hold it in the past. So the palace was like a large spiritual shed, and a water and land temple was opened in the Shouchun Hall of Jingshan. The magic weapon was noisy, and the crying sounded shaking the earth, which made a fuss for 70 to 49 days.

In early October, the first snow fell in the capital in Beijing. On the same day, Obai sent a news report from Henan, claiming to the emperor that he severely injured the rebels Hu Guozhu and Wang Ping's troops, and had expelled Wu Sangui's rebels from Kaifeng, but Shunzhi was already sick and in the ointment wasteland.

The imperial physicians gave the exact pulse case, and the emperor was infected with smallpox.

The Forbidden City, which had just completed the funeral of Empress Duan Jing, was instantly covered with a shadow.

Smallpox is a disaster for Manzhou. Since entering the pass, there have been more than a dozen princes and ministers who have died of smallpox one after another, including Prince Yu Duoduo. As for other diseases, there are countless generals and schools in Manzhou who have been infected. It can be said that smallpox has taken away half of the people who can fight in Manzhou. The word "Smallpox" has become a tiger among the people of Manzhou, and he is afraid of talking.

Shunzhi knew about his condition, and he felt that he had no menstrual weakness, dizziness, dizziness, and inability to do so. As the rashes on his body became more and more heavy, and he became more and more panicked. He felt that he was not far from that day, and he did not think that he would be lucky than Duoduo. In front of smallpox, even if Shunzhi was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, he could not resist. Shunzhi began to face a choice, and after his death, which son would inherit his emperor throne.

In Kunning Palace, the empress dowager who had already cried and had red eyes gave her advice, and the third prince Xuanye had stained the smallpox.

The empress dowager's meaning is very obvious. In order to avoid repeating the same mistakes, the third prince who survived by smallpox is undoubtedly the best candidate for the emperor. However, the other princes have not been infected with smallpox, which means that they are likely to die from smallpox in the future.

Shunzhi agreed to his mother's meaning. Although he did not like the son born by Concubine Tong, nor did he like this son with pockmarked faces, he no longer had to be troubled by smallpox, and he did not have to die of illness like his father. It was just that Xuanye was only seven years old and was so young, but the Qing Dynasty is not peaceful now. With the two evil wolves, the thief scholar and Wu Sangui, can the young Xuanye take on the important task of saving the Qing Dynasty?

The answer is obvious, Xuanye cannot, because he is still young.

So Shunzhi thought of letting someone help his son.

In order to successfully hand over the power to Xuanye, rather than being taken away by his brothers, Shunzhi took great pains. He kept thinking about the candidates who could be worthy of his entrusting. In the end, he chose Sony, Oboi, Suksaha and Dunbai as the ministers of the regent after his son succeeded to the throne.

Sony, Oubai, Suksaha, and Dunbai were all ministers with great trust in Shunzhi. The four of them were also loyal to Shunzhi. Shunzhi believed that with the four of them, Xuanye would be able to ascend the throne smoothly.

Because Aobai led his troops to deal with Wu Sangui in Henan, Shunzhi secretly summoned Sony, Suksaha and Dunbai to meet in Beijing.

After the three of them entered the palace, Shunzhi wanted to sit up, but he used all his strength but failed. So Shunzhi signaled Wu Liangfu to help him, and Wu Liangfu immediately helped his master up and leaned on him. Shunzhi coughed a few times, and when his heart slowly calmed down, he weakly said to the three people kneeling there: "Do you know what I have called you?"

The three of them shook their heads. Dunbai really didn't know, but Sony and Suksaha vaguely guessed what the master meant, but they didn't dare to say it out loud, they were afraid that they were thinking that they were looking forward to their master's death.

Shunzhi's eyes swept around the faces of the three ministers. Finally, he sighed a long time and said to the three: "I have not had much time left."

After hearing this, Dunbai couldn't bear it. He hurriedly said, "Master, you can rest assured and not worry about state affairs. With slaves here, the sky of the Qing Dynasty cannot collapse!"

Sony and Suksaha also quickly advised their master not to think randomly. Shunzhi smiled miserably and said weakly: "I know my illness, I will stop talking about those useless things anymore. I asked you to come, because there is something important to entrust to you."

"master!"

Dunbai lowered his head and his eyes were filled with tears. Sony and Suksaha started to cry softly.

Hearing the cry of the slaves, Shunzhi raised his hand impatiently and said unhappily: "I am not dead yet, why are you crying? I asked you to come. I wanted you to share my worries. Do you want me to be even more upset?"

Sony and Suksaha didn't dare to cry anymore and knelt respectfully there.

"You three and Youbai are both from the two yellow flags. They are my loyal ministers and my nobles. The prosperity of the Qing Dynasty is closely related to your honor and disgrace. Therefore, I want to rely on you. I now give you the title of ministers to govern the Qing Dynasty. After my death, you must be united in one heart and virtue and do your best to assist him. Do you know?"

Sony and the other two looked at each other and claimed in unison: "Zhe."

Shunzhi spoke too much, gasped heavily, and had a long rest before he calmed down. Then he continued: "In order to consolidate my Qing regime, I adopted Fan Wencheng and Ningwan's advice and carried many Han people into Manzhou. But you must remember that I had to use this strategy, just to use the power of the Han people to protect our Qing Dynasty. In the future, when Wu Sangui and the thief scholars are pacified, you still have to find a way to consolidate Manzhou, so that the Han people will occupy the majority. When necessary, you must clean up the Eight Banners. You must never let the Han people become bigger in my Qing Dynasty!" At this point, Shunzhi could no longer support him and uttered four words: "Remember and remember!" Then he waved his hand and asked Jieshu and the others to go back

In Luoyang City, Wu Sangui paced back and forth anxiously. His body was still so majestic, but his steps seemed extremely heavy.

Zhu Youlang was actually dead!

What's even more hateful is that the thief scholar actually claimed that he killed Zhu Youlang!

This is really a big deal. It was clearly the attack of Guiyang by his Taiping Army, it was clearly the pursuit of Zhu Youlang by his Taiping Army, and it was clearly the Taiping Army who killed Zhu Youlang, but the thief scholar turned his back and said that Wu Sangui's evil moves. Let me ask, who in the world can believe it!

Brother Wu Sanfu was also dead, Tan Hong's dog thief also rebelled, the news in Yunnan was not clear, and the situation in Sichuan was very bad.

The war in Henan was not going well. Hu Guozhu and Wang Pingfan were defeated and lost tens of thousands of troops. Now the Wu army has to confront Aobai on Luoyang and Zhengzhou.

None of these matters. What is important is that Zhu Youlang's death made Wu Sangui feel like the Wu army was being sucked.

What should I do if the emperor is gone?
