The Zheng family navy in the port was caught off guard by the enemy and could not organize effective resistance at all. Even the shore artillery in the port did not fire a single shell.

The foreigners succeeded in the raid, sinking more than 40 warships of all sizes, burning more than 30 warships, and abducting more than 2,000 soldiers and civilians.

Upon hearing the news, Zheng Sen immediately ordered the assembly of the navy troops and chased the fleet of the foreigners who came to attack the sneak attack late that night.

Unexpectedly, Kerry Thorne was also well versed in military tactics. He blitzed into the Kinmen to lure the snake out of the hole, and the main force of the fleet had already been waiting in the middle of the strait.

Zheng Sen learned that the navy that was heading for pursuit was ambushed by the enemy. In shock and anger, he personally led the navy to reinforce. So a sea battle broke out in the middle of the strait.

....

Shuntian Mansion.

In front of Prince Rui’s mansion.

The atmosphere is a bit unusual from usual.

After Dorgon left the capital, the gate of Prince Rui's mansion became sparsely populated.

As a Beijing official, if he loses his sensitivity, he may not understand how he dies.

The court began to condemn. After the moment when the regent was impeached, any officials who heard some rumors were the farther away from Prince Rui's mansion, and they wanted to tear off a layer of skin to show that they had nothing to do with Dorgon.

That's right, officials are just two-mouthed things.

By the time the news of Dorgon's death reached the capital, Dorgon had actually been dead for less than half a month.

It was expected, but it was unexpected.

Dorgon didn't have much time, and almost everyone in the capital knew about it, but no one expected that Dorgon would commit suicide.

The court clearly stated that the Regent came to Xuzhou in person with illness to fight against the false righteousness and attack the north. Unexpectedly, the situation of the war worsened and Xuzhou City was surrounded by enemy troops... Prince Ying, who was far away in Fengyang, was unable to rescue him. The Regent made a name for the entire court and resolutely committed suicide...

Death of suicide?

Death suicide!

Almost all officials in the capital believed that Dorgon had finally made a final decision by the imperial court, and no one dared not believe it.

Because it is imperative for the emperor to rule, who dares not believe it? Isn’t it a waste of yourself and seeking death?

Even if everyone heard many abnormalities in the Ming Dynasty, they pretended to be stupid and protected themselves.

For example, all the previous edicts and official documents, Dorgon must be called the regent of the emperor's father, and now he is the regent.

Fortunately, the court was still "benevolent and righteous". Since Dorgon died for his country, he should be buried with great honor and mournfulness after his death.

So, when Dorgon's body was sent to the capital, Xiao Fulin led the prince's minister to wear white clothes and slept five miles outside the Dongzhimen, and personally welcomed Dorgon's body.

Then he issued an edict to respect Dorgon as "the emperor who is good at practicing virtue and practices, broad-minded and stable achievements, and the people are established and the people are respected and righteous." The temple name is Chengzong, and the funerals are followed by the emperor's rituals.

Then, an edict was issued to honor the Yuan Concubine Borjijit, the chief concubine of Dorgon, as the Queen of Yi, and to enjoy the Taimiao.

Because Dorgon had no son, he granted his son Dorbo as Prince Xirui, and his salary was three times that of other kings.

Dorgon's close attendant Zhan Dai and Suksaha were also the minister of political discussion...

It can be said that one person commits suicide, and the chicken and dogs ascend to heaven, which makes people sigh, "What a good death!"

But even this coveted mourning did not arouse the interest of the officials in Beijing. They still avoided the gate of Prince Rui's mansion, as if there was an incurable plague in Prince Rui's mansion.

Prince Rui’s mansion is cold.

I am afraid it will be just a matter of time to be investigated.

Almost everyone's judgment is so.

However, it has become different now.

The difference is because of one person, a man.

Of course, everyone knows that this is a man.

But this man is a little different. He is a Han Chinese, but he married a Manchu woman. Because the Manchu woman is the daughter of Prince Rui, her power is as strong as the sun, red and purple, and hot as it is.

Chen Zhiyuan is back.

He went to Beijing to thank the imperial court for rewards. Now Dorbo has three palaces and more than 100,000 troops. Naturally, he will not listen to the command and not the announcement. How could he go to Beijing to thank him? That's not the sheep entering the tiger's mouth?

Because of his in-laws, Chen Zhiyuan entered Prince Rui's mansion. That's so grand. That's right. How can he count? As a prince, he can be called half of the master, right?

Of course, no one will really treat him as half of his master, because he has always been concerned with "water splashed by his married daughter", and even the Tartars who eat raw meat and drink blood cannot avoid the commonplace. In their opinion, Chen Zhiyuan is ultimately... a guest, who is dominating his wife's family as his own?

Everyone thinks that Chen Zhiyuan should leave. If he doesn’t leave after going to the palace to thank the reward, wouldn’t that be annoying?

God knows if the little emperor can't hold it in, revealing his fangs that had already been gnawed, leaving Chen Zhiyuan behind to exorcise his hatred of being unable to personally attack Dorgon.

What was disappointing was that Chen Zhiyuan not only did not leave, but also lived there carelessly. He stayed there for five days. During these five days, he scattered around the capital, including the unspeakable alley, and visited several doors.

It was just these few doors that made everyone's concepts change overnight, which was a world of difference from before.

....

The first door of Chen Zhiyuanchuan was the Azige family of Prince Ying.

This is not abrupt.

After all, Ajige is Dorgon's brother. Although the two are secretly dirty, they are still "respected as guests" on the surface. Ajige rebelled from Mobeiping and returned to Beijing. The first person to visit Prince Rui's mansion was the only one he visited. However, the purpose of his visit was to get Dorgon to agree to add a prefix before the three words "Prince of England" - the emperor's uncle.

In Ajige's words, everyone is brother, and there is no reason why you are the emperor's father and I am not the emperor's uncle.

But as a result, Dorgon almost kicked Ajige in the ass.

Ajige really couldn't figure it out. He agreed to share hardships and wealth. Why couldn't he be the emperor's uncle Ying? However, Ajige later figured it out. It turned out that his brother Huang Taiji did not leave a second Bumubutai, and he sighed.

Even though I figured it out, Ajige decided to help Dorgon with his help and meet his brother Huang Taiji as soon as possible. In this way, he could also imitate Dorgon and become an emperor's father.

This made Ajige and his 90,000 troops circled around Fengyang several mansions during the fierce battle in two months, calling it "turning forward and breaking through".

The key is that the court can't do anything to him, because Fulin had a secret order to pass it on to him, stay away from Xuzhou. Hey, what does it mean to take care of both public and private affairs, and to use public as a private person? That's it.

However, Ajige was obviously not an introvert. Once the Yixing Dynasty and the Qing court signed a peace treaty, Ajige immediately took his own flag army to "train".

He arrived much earlier than Chen Zhiyuan.

How can you not be happy? The Regent's position is empty, there are more wolves and fewer meats. Who knows how many people are thinking about this position?

After all, Ajige is not a restrained person. His aura is too great, and everyone knows what he thinks, which really "scare" Xiao Fulin.

OK, Xiao Fulin therefore refused Ajige's visit, and refused for seven days.

It's intolerable!

Ajige was angry, thinking of bringing more people tomorrow and trying to go to the palace.

I even wonder if Xiao Fulin's fake disease turns into a real disease, a serious disease, and an incurable disease.
