618 What to Do
Yongheyuan.
"The news is destined to be locked up." Wang Xiao said slowly: "No matter whether the person was kidnapped by Dorgon or not, he would like to spread the news. I hope he will come to find someone? It is impossible. And Daishan and Jirgalang are loyal to the Qing Dynasty, not you. They can support you and Fulin for the stability of the Qing Dynasty, but if Fulin is gone, they will immediately betray you for the stability of the Qing Dynasty."
He said this, looking at Bumubutai's eyes and said solemnly: "I wanted to say these words to you yesterday, but I can't bear it... You have to think clearly first. What should you do if you can't find Fulin."
Bumubutai did not answer, but just lay down on the couch.
She looked red, looked sideways, hugged Wang Xiao, as if all the bones were removed.
She didn't know what was wrong with her. She clearly felt that it was shameful to come to Wang Xiao at this time, but she still couldn't help but come over.
Wang Xiao was rarely gentle and stroked her forehead, his movements as if comforting a child.
After a while, Bumubutai whispered: "What should I do if there is anything else... I can't find Fulin, what should I do if I care about..."
"You have to accept that Fulin is not everything to you, you can live more than just for him."
"Without Fulin...what else do I have?"
"You still have your own life."
"No, I have nothing except Fulin... I have been buried here for most of my life, I just lived for Fulin..."
For the past day and night, she was both calm and panicked, wanted to be strong and extremely fragile. Until now, she seemed to be no longer the Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty. She finally fell here and cried in front of Wang Xiao.
Wang Xiao seemed to sigh and said, "Da Yu'er, don't worry, Fulin will not die. He is the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and the other party may not dare to kill him. What he wants is to force Dorgon to take action. Be calm and guard the throne for Fulin and wait for him to come back."
"real?"
"The other party's purpose should be the throne, not Fulin himself. He may not kill Fulin before this change is settled. But you must think clearly, or what should you do if you can't find someone in a short period of time?"
Wang Xiao said, and said again: "I thought about it for a long time and thought that Duoduo was more likely to rob Fulin than Dorgon."
"Dodo?Dodo?!"
"Doduo's son was adopted by Dorgon. His intention to disrupt the Qing Dynasty and make Dorgon ascend the throne was even more anxious than Dorgon. Do you remember that in Zhaoling, you sent someone to pretend to me to attract Qin Xuance and the others to turn back? Why didn't Duoduo expose that the dead person was not me?"
Bumubutai finally calmed down a little and said slowly: "He doesn't want to search your whereabouts anymore. He wants Dorgon to put his mind on the throne, and he also wants to take down the credit for killing you."
"Yes, searching for the thief of Chu is beneficial to the Qing Dynasty, not to him personally. Dodo has ambitions and military achievements. He is just hidden behind Dorgon and was ignored." Wang laughed: "If so, once Dorgon ascends the throne, Fulin will be useless, and Dodo will definitely kill him. On the contrary, if Dorgon did not ascend the throne, he may also release Fulin back, causing the new emperor to be in a dilemma again."
Hearing this, Bumubutai seemed to have caught a life-saving straw. She hugged Wang Xiao tightly and said, "Help me, help me save Fulin..."
Wang Xiao patted her on the back and said, "Listen to me, this is just my speculation. You should still be prepared to not be able to find Fulin. For example, who do you want to be the emperor?"
Bumubutai was stunned.
This was extremely difficult for her to accept.
But Wang Xiao's calmness and analysis of pulling her silk and squeezing her cocoon finally made her regain her spirits.
She stood up, remained silent, and tried to start thinking.
Wang Xiao reached out to wipe her tears.
"There are two candidates - Haug and Bomubogore." Bumubote said: "Haug has a greater chance of winning, and Bomubogore's succession is more beneficial to me."
Wang Xiao asked, "What's the situation with Bomubogore?"
"He is the Eleventh Prince, younger than Fulin. He is three years old this year. Namu Zhong was born. Namu Zhong was originally the concubine of Lin Danhan. When Huang Taiji was in power, she was ranked in the Western Palace and had a higher status than me..."
"If Hauge ascended the throne, even if Fulin can come back, Haoge will not be able to abdicate. And if we support Bomubogor, Jirgalang will still be on our side. It is nothing more than returning to the situation before Fulin succeeds to the throne and doing it again. I told you that if you want to succeed, you will not be arrogant when you win or lose."
Bumubutai said again: "If Fulin comes back, can Bomuboguoer abdicate again?"
"This kind of thing happened before. There were also examples of restoration in the history of the Ming Dynasty."
Apart from Zhu Qizhen, Wang Xiao really can't give other examples of this kind of thing.
But Bumu Butai was much more knowledgeable than him and murmured in a low voice: "The old stories of Emperor Wenzong of Yuan can indeed be considered as detailed... The Miao and Liu mutiny during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Song... Emperor Zhaozong of Tang..."
After thinking about the examples of the restoration of the emperors in a row, Bumubutai said again: "It is extremely difficult to regain the throne."
Wang Xiao was a little surprised by the Mongolian woman's extensive knowledge, but he said calmly: "It's nothing difficult for you and me to join forces."
"But if Fulin can't come back..."
Wang Xiao comforted her for a while and sighed: "I know that you have a deep relationship with your mother and son, so it is best to be saved. But if you can't come back, you also need to think about how to control Bomuboguoer."
Bumubutai was slightly stunned.
She was extremely anxious about Fulin's disappearance. But after going back to the topic, Wang Xiao completely weighed the pros and cons, and she found that she had calmed down a lot.
Of course, she still had to do her best to find Fulin, but she also needed to consider the things she should consider. She was the empress dowager of the Qing Dynasty, and she could not lose her backbone after all.
"It is not a problem to control Bomubogore and her biological mother Namuzhong." Bumubutai said: "It is rare to stabilize the situation in front of you."
"It's just the original method, to support Haoge and Dorgon to fight." Wang Xiao said: "Dorgon failed once, and he won't let go again this time. Even if Haoge fights with him, he will be willing to do so..."
The two discussed for a long time and finally decided on the strategy. First, find Fulin as soon as possible; second, prepare to launch Bomuboguoer when the situation is unfavorable; third, stabilize the princes and ministers; fourth, support Haoge, and once again incite his ambition to fight with Dorgon...
While discussing with Wang Xiao, Bumubutai ordered Su Moer to pass on orders.
Su Moer was worried that she would let Bumubutai and Wang Xiao stay in the house alone, but she couldn't resist Bumubutai. Fortunately, she went out several times and came back and saw Bumubutai sitting there.
When Su Moer came back after the last time she passed the message, she saw Bumubutai lying in Wang Xiao's arms and fell asleep.
At this time, the sun sets, and the day passes like this again, and there is still no news about Fulin. However, the storm in Shengjing City is reviving and the situation is turbulent again.
In the turmoil, Bumubutai, who had not been asleep for two nights, closed his eyes and finally fell asleep.
She and Su Moer both forgot one thing.
——This past day was the third day when Wang Xiao said, "I will escape from Shengjing within five days."
~~
Bumubutai felt very strange when he was sleeping.
On the one hand, when her son disappeared, she was extremely uneasy, as if her heart was about to be hollowed out.
On the other hand, Wang Xiao hugged her, no longer the indifference he had before. This time he seemed to be really feeling sorry for her. She could feel the peaceful power in his arms...
~~
Late at night, Wang Xiao sat there, holding Bumubutai without moving.
He closed his eyes, and countless memories whizzed from his mind again...
Grave mountain.
Amid the fire of war and the sound of fighting, the sharp arrows shot through Kong's chest and knocked him down under the horse.
In his drowsiness, he saw Qin Chengye's face.
"Old man Qin... I was wrong... If I had known that you were a hero... I wouldn't have let Guanning Iron Cavalry die..."
"I'm not a hero. If you hadn't lied to me to dig Fuling, my mother would have surrendered. But I can die. You promised me to protect the families of the Qin family and the Guanning Iron Cavalry. You can't die."
"Old man Qin...I'm sorry..."
For a moment, Wang Xiao almost wanted to tell Qin Chengye that Qin Shouren was dead and that he could not do anything he promised him.
He opened his mouth, blood was overflowing, and he swallowed the sentence back.
"Boy, listen, go back alive. I am not working hard for you in vain. If you dare to break your promise in the future, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost. Xuan Ce, take him away!"
Wang Xiao stared at Qin Chengye, his eyes blurred. The figure of the veteran was shaking more and more, getting farther and farther away, and became more and more blurry...
A piece of darkness.
Then, on the dark battlefield, countless hands suddenly rushed up and held Wang Xiao's feet.
"Why are you still not dead?! You killed us..."
"You promised to die with us..."
Wang Xiao was frightened and sweated down.
Suddenly, a long sword slashed down hard.
Wang Xiao wanted to open his eyes, but he seemed to be unable to open his eyes.
I only saw Qin Chengye's firm eyes in a trance, as if he was about to split even the ghosts and gods.
"Promise me!"
"I promise you... to go back alive... to any means..."
