He wanted to be emperor too much, and the soldiers turned their heads dangerously and left, and the result was very sad!
On September 21, 1643, Emperor Taiji died, the country can not be a day without a monarch, the selection of the heir to the throne became the most important thing in the world, Nurhaci decided that the principle of choosing an heir has actually been abolished by the Emperor Taiji, but before his death, he did not have time to explain the principle and designate a head, which made the biggest political game of succession to the throne lose the rules.
At that time, the two yellow flags and the two white flags were opposing camps, and they were all in a tight movement, Hauge was the ideal spokesman for the two yellow flags, and the two yellow flag ministers Sonny, Aobai, and others were going in and out of his palace these days, actively plotting and exerting force, and they all made it clear that they would support Hauge as emperor, and Hauge was very happy to hear it. In terms of the two white flags, Dorgon also has the support of his brothers Azig and Dordor, the two factions can be described as evenly matched, equal in strength, the struggle for the throne is related to honor and disgrace, success or failure is related to the future and destiny of the country, and everyone understands that this issue is absolutely ambiguous and modest. The question of who to choose as the successor was decided to be discussed at the Chongzheng Temple.
On this day, two groups of people gathered in the Chongzheng Palace, but there were some variables in this, the two yellow flags directly sent troops to surround the palace, Dorgon did not think that the other side was so vicious, he was ready to see blood as soon as he shot, he was not prepared in advance, and did not transfer his own troops into the palace, so at the beginning he was in the inferior position, when Dordon proposed that he be elected as the successor, Dorgon was afraid of the opponent's strength, hesitated for a while, and did not have the courage to stand up as emperor.
On the other hand, Prince Hauge of Su was also observing the situation at that time, in fact, the key example in this political gladiatorial struggle was the prince of Zheng Zilharang and the blue flag he commanded, and prince Zheng's attitude decided who was elected as the successor. Prince Zheng's heart is very clear, whether it is not to repay the former emperor's kindness, or to protect his own prominent position, he should let Hauge come to power as the emperor, but baiqi is not easy to provoke, they are trying to take the throne, they will not give up. If it is not good, the Great Qing Kingdom will launch a bloody battle, he decided not to do things to the end, to ensure that he has a way to retreat, so when Hauge's envoys stepped into Prince Zheng's palace to lobby, Prince Zheng said strategically that he also meant this, expressing support for Hauge to inherit the throne, and at the same time implicitly reminding Hauge that on your way to the throne, Dorgon is an insurmountable obstacle.
At this time, Hauge waited for Prince Zheng to propose that he be the successor, but Prince Zheng never spoke, never expressed his position, and finally Hauge finally could not resist, saying that he had no blessings, it was difficult to be a heavy responsibility, and he actually left the table. In fact, this is a dangerous move, to retreat into advance, forcing others to make a decision, but he failed, no one went to stop him, the throne just passed him, making him regret it, but the throne did not fall into the hands of Dorgon, but accidentally belonged to the five-year-old Fu Lin.
