Han’s Son is Not a Slave

After Sun Kewang surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the Qing court was planning to hold the canonization ceremony of the righteous king in the capital, but Hong Chengchou wrote that it should be held on the spot in Changsha, which could quickly appease Sun Kewang's heart and let those Nanming generals know about the Qing Dynasty. Pay attention to the returnees, and at the same time use Sun Kewang to subdue public opinion, and maximize the political value of Sun Kewang's subjugation.

Shunzhi approved Hong Chengchou's book, so he held a canonization ceremony for Sun Kewang in Changsha. However, just when Shunzhi asked Sun Kewang to come to Beijing to see his car, Guangdong had undergone great changes. Prince Jian Jidu ordered his army to go south to quell the chaos, and the Qing court was preparing for the three-way army to enter Yunnan. Sun Kewang's visit to Beijing was delayed. . His people stayed in Changsha all the time. When Hong Chengchou did not enter the southwest with the army, he specially built a palace for Sun Kewang in Changsha. In order to appease Sun Kewang, Shunzhi decreed twice to give Sun Kewang 12,000 taels of silver, as well as robes, court clothes, and satin. That's right, he will report the humiliation under Li Dingguo in the past on the hand of the Qing soldiers will surely succeed.

However, with the smooth progress of the Qing army's three-way war in the southwest, the treatment of Sun Kewang, the righteous king, has changed day by day, and his weight in Shunzhi's heart has also decreased day by day. In July last year, Sun Kewang was overjoyed when he learned that his younger brother, Sun Kesheng, who had been separated for more than ten years, was in Songjiang Mansion in the south of the Yangtze River. The family was sent to Changsha to be reunited with him. Unexpectedly, such a trivial request attracted a bang from the imperial censor of Chaozhong. A group of censors attacked Sun Kewang, saying that he "began to poison Shu and Chu with Zhang Xianzhong's adopted son, and the gods and people were indignant. Then they called the soldiers offended and rebelled against my Yan Xing. All the people betrayed their relatives and left, and there was no solution, and Fang led hundreds of exhausted soldiers. , come back in desperation...", not only viciously cursing Sun Kewang, the censors also called Sun Kewang's younger brother just a food soldier with no official status.

After seeing these impeachment memorandums, Shunzhi did not criticize a word, and only sent them to Changsha for Sun Kewang to see for himself. After seeing this pile of impeachments, Sun Kewang was like five thunders, and he felt very uncomfortable. What kind of prestige he was when he was the lord of the Qin Kingdom, and today he became the righteous king of the Qing Dynasty, but he was attacked like this by the guy who helped to catch the knife and make the pen. Huluo Pingyang's helpless feeling of being bullied by dogs. Sun Kewang felt the indifference of the Qing court and Shunzhi towards him, and in desperation, he could only apologize. I thought that this matter was negligent and guilty, and the Qing court would no longer care about him. No, in March this year, it was revealed that Sun Kewang was lending money in Changsha to make money.

Lending money for profit is a thousand-year-old thing, not to mention the Han people, it is also a common practice among the people of Beijing and the Manchu banners around First, he reprimanded Sun Kewang, and then announced a pardon to show the emperor's kindness. Since then, Sun Kewang's situation has become more and more embarrassing. Although he is the righteous king in Changsha, the officials in Changsha have never been respectful to him as the righteous king. It can be said that if it hadn't been for the series of anti-Qing rallies set off by the Taiping Army in Guangxi and Huguang, and if it hadn't been for Doni's army being trapped in the southwest, Shunzhi would never have thought of Sun Kewang, let alone sent him a decree of leniency.

In this holy will to Sun Kewang, Shunzhi first made a big show of his coming down anyway, and then he gave a bunch of royal objects, and gave some of Sun Kewang's sons nobility, but in the end, it was a clear intention. . Shunzhi hoped that Sun Kewang could use his influence as the puppet king of Qin in the past to exert influence on the old troops, especially to win over the old troops who surrendered to the Taiping army in Guangxi and Huguang, so that they could break away from the Taiping bandits and return anyway.

It was Shunzhi's own idea to let Sun Kewang play a role, but it was the suggestion of the Minister of the Interior Suksaha to give the decree to the Heshuo princess Kong Sizhen and her concubine Sun Yanling.

Suksaha said that the Guangxi side has always been in charge of Lin Guoan, the commander of King Kong Youde of Dingnan. Now Lin Guoan has been ordered by Doni to return to Guangxi, but the war is not going well. It is better to make the princess four. Gege and his concubine went south to Guangxi to sit in town.

Heshuo Princess Sigege Kong Sizhen is the daughter of Kong Youde, the original king of the south. Kong Sizhen was adopted by Wu Sangui as an adopted daughter when she was young. In the ninth year of Shunzhi, Li Dingguo made a surprise attack on Guangxi. Kong Youde called the two wives and their children to him. He expressed to the two wives his determination to die for the country once the city was destroyed, and hoped that the two wives could go out of the city with their children for a while. But the two wives refused to leave, and finally decided to let the two nanny take Kong Tingxun and Kong Sizhen brothers and sisters along with the refugees to flee to the countryside outside the city.

After escaping outside the city, in order not to arouse suspicion, the two nannies each took a child to find shelter. Guilin military and civilians all know that Kong Youde, King of Dingnan, has two children in their teens, so the two nannies brought Kong Tingxun brother and sister together very eye-catching, easy to be captured by the Ming army, so the two nannies negotiated and decided that Kong Sizhen and his brother Kong Tingxun should escape separately. . After the city of Guilin was destroyed, Kong Youde committed suicide, and more than 120 members of his family were killed. Only Kong Sizhen escaped, and Kong Tingxun was captured by Li Dingguo and executed a few years later.

After Kong Sizhen lived as a refugee for nearly a year, Kong Youde's general Ling Guoan captured Guilin while Li Dingguo's main force was turning. Under the auspices of Ling Guoan, the remains of Kong Youde and his two wives were put into the coffin. Kong Sizhen, who was dressed in plain clothes, helped the coffin to the north, and drove his horses to the capital day and night. The journey from Guilin to Beijing is thousands of miles, and the two lakes are also haunted by the anti-Qing army. Ling Guoan, who is in charge of military affairs, sent the most capable generals and the most elite troops to **** Kong Sizhen to help the coffin into Beijing.

In the eleventh year of Shunzhi, Kong Sizhen helped the coffin to Beijing, and Shunzhi ordered the kings and ministers to send it away, to build a tomb for four thousand taels of silver, and the Ministry of Industry to erect a monument. Kong Sizhen requested that Kong Youde's skeleton be buried in Beijing. Shunzhi readily agreed and gave Kong Youde the posthumous title of "Wu Zhuang". He established the Dingnan King Wuzhuang Temple in Beijing, and set up rituals to recite sutras for 18 days and nights. In addition, Shunzhi sent Engede, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, to give Kong Sizhen 10,000 taels of silver for daily use, so that she could enjoy the salary of the county master. The queen mother grieved for Kong Sizhen's loneliness, and adopted her in the palace as her own daughter.

Although Kong Sizhen is Kong Youde's daughter, she is considered to be a general girl, but she looks handsome and everyone loves her. Therefore, Shunzhi was very fond of Kong Sizhen, and the Queen Mother saw it in her eyes and also thought about it in her heart. She felt that if her son accepted Kong Sizhen as his concubine, he would be able to capture the Han army under Dingnan, so he deliberately cultivated the relationship between Kong Sizhen and Shunzhi, not only He urged Kong Sizhen to read the scriptures, and whenever Shunzhi retreated from the imperial court, he always found a reason to send Kong Sizhen to Shunzhi's residence, especially whenever Shunzhi went to Nanyuan for hunting, he always asked Kong Sizhen to accompany him.

In this way, one late night in Nanyuan Shi, Shunzhi suddenly broke into Kong Sizhen's room and put her to sleep. Afterwards, Kong Sizhen was crying and making trouble, making Shunzhi very upset. When the queen mother knew about this, she asked her why she refused to marry the emperor. Kong Sizhen said that her father had betrothed her to Yanling, the son of Sun Long's general, when she was alive, so she was married.

The Queen Mother was stunned for a while before sighing and saying, "Since you can't be my daughter-in-law, let me be my daughter!" So, the Queen Mother accepted Kong Sizhen as her adopted daughter and named He Shuogege. Soon, the chairperson married Kong Sizhen to Sun Yanling. Pity that Sun Yanling's bridal chamber Hua Zhuye suffered a dumb loss, and neither dared to be angry nor dared to speak out.

Kong Sizhen was born in a general, her father was King Dingnan, she was the adopted daughter of the Empress Dowager and Shuogege, and she had an ambiguous relationship with the emperor. Therefore, after marrying Sun Yanling, she was arrogant in front of her husband and called out to Sun Yanling. After drinking, he often stayed in the palace for a few days in the name of visiting the queen mother.

Sun Yanling was not ignorant of the relationship between his wife and the emperor, but he was very scheming. Although he was dissatisfied with Kong Sizhen's tyranny and infidelity, he knew that he couldn't afford to offend her, so he only respected Kong Sizhen in every possible way and didn't care what she did. Don't ask, bow down and accept, to go with the flow. This move naturally made Kong Sizhen very satisfied, so she often said good things about Sun Yanling in front of the empress dowager and the emperor, which made the empress dowager and Shunzhi have a good impression of Sun Yanling.

Although he is the concubine of Heshuo, he is not as idle as a Manchurian flag in Beijing. Sun Yanling has always wanted to gain real power~www.NovelMTL.com~ So she kept counseling Kong Sizhen to be able to ask the Queen Mother and the emperor to let their couple leave the town of Guangxi. , commanded the old department of his father-in-law Kong Youde. However, Kong Sizhen refused to leave Beijing for Guangxi because of his affair with the emperor. Helpless, Sun Yanling had to wait patiently.

The emperor paid off. Sun Yanling saw his opportunity from the news of the emperor's imperial expedition, so he followed the path of Suksaha, the minister of the interior, and asked Suksaha to mention the Guangxi war situation in front of the emperor, and let them and his wife go. Go to Guangxi. So, Suksaha, who received a lot of money, took care of Sun Yanling. Even if Shunzhi didn't want Kong Sizhen to leave her, Suksaha's proposal was also in line with the current situation. No matter what, Xian Guoan was only Kong Youde's subordinate, and he couldn't make Dingnan's subordinates obey. Kong Sizhen and Sun Yanling were different. With his and his wife going to Guangxi, the forces of the Han army under the Dingnan clan could truly be integrated together.

When the imperial decree came to the door, Kong Sizhen was shocked and angry when she found out that her husband was carrying her small actions behind her back. He had to take his disciples Dai Liangchen, Fu Honglie and others to set off for Guangxi unwillingly.

Different from his wife's reaction, after Sun Yanling left Beijing, she was smiling all the way, and she felt like she was crossing the Yumen Pass in the spring breeze.

After Kong Sizhen and his wife left Beijing for three or four days, Shunzhi felt a little regretful. After all, Kong Sizhen's ** was more entangled than the concubine Dong E's, and she was still a wife. Being with Kong Sizhen would make Shunzhi feel a sense of cheating. It's a pity that the beautiful woman has gone, and as an emperor, he can't shamelessly send someone to drive his wife back.

When Shunzhi was regretful and depressed, a bald man pointed at the Tang Wangfu, thousands of miles away, in front of the Tang Wangfu, in Wencun, Taishan, Guangdong, and cursed: "Well, you Tang Wang, you don't know how to flatter, you don't want to be the emperor, my family is handsome. Be a god!"
