He was the founding minister of the Qing Dynasty, and his wife was abducted by others, but he did not dare to say anything when he learned who the other party was
Historically, people who surrendered in treason generally did not have a good end, but this person is different, after treason, this person helped Nurhaci, Huang Taiji and others to establish the Qing Dynasty, it can be said that the founding minister of the Qing Dynasty, who is this person? It is Fan Wencheng.
Although Fan Wencheng was a heavy courtier of the Qing Dynasty, he was a typical son of Ming dynasty officials and eunuchs, and his grandfather worshiped The Shangshu of the Ming Dynasty officials. When he was eighteen years old, he and his brother were students of Shenyang County, and in the forty-sixth year of the Wanli Calendar, when the Later Jin Eight Banner Army attacked Fushun, Fan Wencheng took the initiative to ask to see the Qing Taizu Nurhaci, surrendered to Houjin, and then became a traitorous thief in the mouths of Ming officials at that time. When the Manchus attacked Guangning, Fan Wencheng participated in the process of command and planning, after which, he followed Nurhaci, emperor Taiji continued to conquer the east and west, repeatedly made meritorious contributions, and persuaded many Ming generals to surrender, laying a solid foundation for the establishment of the Qing Dynasty.
After the establishment of the Qing Dynasty, although Fan Wencheng was said to be a traitor, he was still fighting for the interests of the Ming people. In order to cover up the contradictions between the Manchu and Han nationalities and turn enemies into friends, he once said that the Great Qing Dynasty and mountains were "gained from thieves, not from the Ming Dynasty", and proved this with practical actions. He vigorously employed abolitionists and recruited hermits to serve as eunuchs and govern the people. Later, it was called "Extremely Prosperous Cloud". But even such a heavy minister also had an unspeakable thing happening, his wife had been forcibly occupied, but he did not dare to say a word. What's going on?
After Fan Wencheng's success, he married a charming wife. On one occasion, Prince Yu, the fifteenth son of Nurhaci, saw his wife, and Prince Yu was obsessed with his wife. Regarding Prince Yu, those who know him well know that he has a characteristic, that is, lustfulness. So after Fan Wencheng went to court, he forcibly took his wife in his house. When the people saw Prince Yu, they didn't dare to stop him, and could only wait until Fan Wencheng returned to tell him.
After Fan Wencheng learned of this, he was furious and threw things everywhere. However, he did not dare to go to Prince Yu's palace to ask for someone, nor did he dare to tell Emperor Taiji. Why? Because according to the rules of the Manchu Qing, Prince Yu, as the flag owner, had the right to forcibly occupy the wife of the flag slave. This is really dumb to eat Huang Lian, there is bitterness can not say ah!
Later, this matter reached the ears of Emperor Taiji, who had long been unhappy with Prince Yu, but he could not find the opportunity to clean him up. Just in time, taking this opportunity, Emperor Taiji ordered Prince Yu to return Fan Wencheng's wife and fined prince Yu 10,000 taels of silver to combat Prince Yu's arrogance.
In the final analysis, it is the consequence of sending people under the fence, the so-called people under the eaves, have to bow their heads! If you were Fan Wencheng, what would you do?
