We know that the Manchu Qing entered the customs and the Manchu Qing was able to unify the whole country later, in fact, most of them were the credit of the emperor's father, the regent Dolgun, under the leadership of Dolgun, the Manchu Qing Dynasty in less than a year, it achieved the goal of entering the Central Plains, annihilating the peasant army to suppress the Southern Ming Hongguang regime, it can be said that at this time, Dolgun was a hero of battle, but also full of ambition, he became the emperor's regent, and his reputation in the Manchu Qing Dynasty is also increasing, why did Dolgun still not choose to be emperor?
Xiao Bian felt that there were three reasons why Dorgon would not dare even if he had ambitions to become emperor! The first reason for this is that there were many "royalists" in the Manchu qing nobility, and these people certainly did not support Dorgon as emperor because they had a direct conflict of interest with Dolgun! Moreover, at this time, there were still remnants of the Ming Dynasty, and in Taiwan, there was an oath of eternal loyalty to the Zheng regime of the former Ming Dynasty, and Dolgun knew that the Qing Dynasty at this time could not withstand infighting, and he naturally did not dare to risk the world to claim the title of emperor!
This second reason is estimated to be related to Empress Xiaozhuang! There are rumors that the reason why Dorgon has great military achievements but is willing to be a courtier of the Shunzhi Emperor is because he "loves beauty and does not love Jiangshan", because Empress Xiaozhuang has an affair with him, so he will loyally assist the Shunzhi Emperor instead of calling himself emperor! It is impossible to record such things without records in the main history, but Xiaobian believes that this kind of thing must also exist! Therefore, Xiaobian also classified this as one of the very important reasons, if everyone does not agree, Xiaobian also accepts!
This third reason is the most important one, because Dorgon is childless and has only one daughter! If Dorgon risked claiming the title of emperor, then if he failed, wouldn't he be unable to eat and go: taking a step back, if Dorgon claimed that the emperor succeeded, and no one objected, or if the opposition of others was invalid, how could he find an heir? In this way, the country he had worked so hard to win was not the same as that of people? If this is the case, why would Dolgun take the risk of claiming the title of emperor?
Perhaps dorgon had killed too many people and was punished, and the Shunzhi Emperor outwardly respected this emperor's father, the regent, but in fact, he hated him very much in his heart! Therefore, when Dorgon had just died, he also falsely gave Dorgon a nickname of "Qingcheng Sect" to show his gratitude to Dorgon for unifying the world! A few months later, the Shunzhi Emperor immediately revealed his true face of Lushan! In the third month after Dorgon's death, the Shunzhi Emperor stripped Dorgon of all his titles and titles, and what's more, he began to liquidate Dorgon's power! Dorgon suddenly changed from a patriotic loyalist who defended his family and defended the country to a chaotic courtier and a thief who was in trouble! It wasn't until more than a hundred years later that the Qianlong Emperor rehabilitated him, but at this time he was only a king! After his death, the rulers of the Qing Dynasty only recognized that he was only a prince, which may be the biggest regret of Dorgon's life!
