At that time, Dorgon was in great power, why did he not dare to be emperor?
Aixin Jueluo Dolgon, the fourteenth son of the Qing Dynasty Taizu Nurhachi, was born on October 25, the 40th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, and Dolgon was born.
Between Dolgon's life and the throne, there always seemed to be a thin layer of window paper, but it was never touchable.
Dolgon, one of the eight Shuo princes of Manchuria, was born intelligent, entered the court at the age of eight, and his mother laid the cornerstone for him to participate in politics.
At that time, Dolgon, who was still young, saw that Huang Taiji was increasingly favored, but it was difficult for him to encroach on power, until the moment of Nurhachi's death, the door to the competition for the throne seemed to open for him - but Dolgon was still very young after all, because he had not had time to make achievements in military and political affairs, and he was defeated by the strong strength of his brother Huang Taiji.
Huang Taiji was originally the heir in Nurhachi's mind, and the eighth prince was heroic, brave and good at fighting, leading the Qing soldiers to win a hundred battles.
Because Huang Taiji was bent on the battlefield, he couldn't take care of his younger brother Dolgon, and it wasn't until Chu Ying was imprisoned that Huang Taiji completely became Nurhachi's favorite successor.
Dolgon was blocked from the throne by this brother, but because of his intelligence and clarity of mind, it didn't take long for him to find an opportunity to make a comeback - to follow the emperor Taiji to conquer the north and south, and to make great achievements under his banner.
On the day of the soldiers coming to the city, Dolgon bravely became the vanguard, killing decisively, making the enemy frightened, he led the army to exterminate the remnants of the Mobei Yuan tribe, and captured the jade seal of the country, and the emperor Taiji was able to hold high the seal and claim the emperor in Shengjing.
Dolgon's credit is indelible, and he was indeed promoted to Prince Rui step by step, alongside Huang Taiji.
Dolgon was quite ambitious, he made meritorious contributions while secretly befriending the heroes of the court, and soon, he became a rising star in the military and political circles, the head of the rampant army, when the power was in power, Dolgon had already proclaimed himself "the regent of the imperial father", which was tantamount to announcing the throne.
However, the good times did not last long, Huang Taiji died suddenly, and Dolgon finally looked forward to the death of his master this time, according to the tradition of the Manchurian brothers, he could justifiably attack the unification.
But at this moment, a fierce rival was born - Huang Taiji's eldest son Haoge, the son of Baylor, was born with a big waist and a round waist, and was a martial artist who was better at fighting than Dorgon.
Hauge has been on the battlefield since he was a child, and he is deeply appreciated by Nurhachi, he is not as shrewd and capable as Dolgon, but he has an unshakable advantage, that is, as the eldest son of Huang Taiji, he is a legitimate candidate for the prince.
The two were indistinguishable for a while, and the court made waves for this, and there was even a tendency to civil strife, and finally the two sides made an expedient measure, and set up only six years old Fulin as the emperor, and the real power was controlled by the two, so Dolgon once again missed the throne.
Fu Lin ascended the throne as Emperor Shunzhi, Dolgon scolded secretly, and swallowed the ambition of winning the heir for the third time, but for Dolgon, he did not take action, he secretly formed a party for personal gain, and secretly reduced Hauge's power.
Eight years later, he finally used his power to oust Hauge, who was imprisoned and died. Without Hauge, there would be no resistance for Dorgon. He regained control and proclaimed himself "Regent of the Imperial Father", which was synonymous with the emperor.
Creation makes people, the throne is close at hand, but Dolgon rubs shoulders with it again, an unexpected hunt, this Aisin Gioro Dolgon fell to his death, and at the age of Chinese New Year's Eve, he died young, and his dream of taking a concubine was shattered.
Dolgon was deprived of all honor after his death, but no one can deny that it was he who single-handedly created the huge Qing Dynasty, and it was he who led the Beidi to the Central Plains.
