Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 363 363, Prince Zheng put Duoduo under house arrest, and Prince Yu died suddenly in the mansion
The next day, Shengjing Qing Palace.

There was a sound of horse hooves, the palace door opened, and a troop of cavalry filed in.

The leader is none other than Duoduo, Prince Yu, one of the military commanders of the Qing Dynasty today.

Generally speaking, one should not gallop freely in the imperial city, but Duoduo has always been domineering, and he didn't hold the rein until he was under the steps of the main hall.

In the main hall, there are already many Manchu and Qing ministers waiting for Duoduo's arrival.

Duoduo strode into the hall, bowed his hands to the young emperor Fulin who was the most senior, and saluted: "Chen Duoduo has seen His Majesty, but he cannot fully salute with the armor on his body, please forgive me."

Xiao Fulin squeezed out a smile with some numbness, and said: "Prince Yu, you don't need to be polite, just sit down. Prince Zheng and the others are waiting for you to discuss important military affairs."

Duduo sat down in the seat that belonged to him.

With a cold expression, Jierhalang said to Duoduo: "Prince Yu, you have tens of thousands of elite soldiers in your hands, why did you retreat again and again, all the way to Shengjing!"

"Do you know that Shengjing is the capital of the Qing Dynasty, if something bad or bad happens to Shengjing, can you bear the responsibility!"

"I called you back today to let you, Your Majesty, and all the ministers explain to you exactly who made you do this!"

When Jierhalang spoke later, his voice was already stern, and his voice reverberated in the hall, which made people look pale.

However, Duduo was clearly prepared, he didn't show any panic on his face, but sneered instead.

"Retreat again and again? Prince Zheng, Prince Zheng, do you know what kind of equipment the Ming army has this time?"

"Let me tell you, the Ming army this time has more than [-] musketeers, hundreds of cannons of various types, and at least ten red barbarian cannons!"

"Come and tell me, with such firepower, how can I compete with the Ming army without Brother Dorgon leading the main force back to assist?"

"If you forcibly guard Liaoxi and Liaodong, it is tantamount to throwing the lives of tens of thousands of brothers in my hands there for nothing, understand?"

"Our Qing Dynasty is not the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty has a population of tens of millions. It doesn't matter if tens of thousands of people die. The population of the Qing Dynasty is less than half of that of the Ming Dynasty. What a terrible loss!"

Duoduo's voice was also full of spirit, echoing in the hall.

Although Duduo's temper is relatively irritable, but in terms of fighting, there are really few people in the Qing Dynasty who can be more powerful than Duduo.

Jierhalang sneered, and said: "You say these things just to defend yourself. Over the years, the Qing army has never had more troops than the Ming army, but when did the Qing army ever lose? "

"You were afraid of being beaten by the Ming people, and you were cowardly. You didn't dare to fight, and you didn't even dare to defend. That's why you lost so much land in the Qing Dynasty."

"Dodo, you cannot escape the guilt!"

Facing Jierhalang's reprimand, Duoduo snorted, and retorted: "Have you suffered a great loss under Zhu Cihong's hands, where did you have the face to criticize me? Prince Zheng, I'm here to discuss how to deal with the Ming army , I didn’t come here to listen to you pour dirty water on me!”

Jierhalang sneered, and said: "It makes sense, the old man didn't come here today to shirk responsibility for you. Come here, read the will!"

An eunuch stepped forward, opened his hands and read aloud: "...Because Prince Yu Duoduo is not good in battle, after discussing with Prince Zheng and other ministers, Prince Yu is now relieved of the right to lead the army and handed over immediately. Hufu Commander Seal, and reflect behind closed doors at home, and do not go out without will!"

When Duoduo heard this, his expression changed drastically.

Doduo really thought that Jierhalang would launch an attack at this meeting, but he never expected that Jierhalang would directly come up with a decree to take away all the military power of Duoduo!
Duoduo stood up straight away and roared angrily: "It's unreasonable! Military affairs should be decided jointly by His Majesty and the two auxiliary kings. How could you, Jierhalang, take advantage of my brother's absence and make such a decision on your own? I don't accept it, I don't accept it!"

Jierhalang waved his hand: "Come here, Duduo is roaring in front of the emperor, offending the emperor, why don't I take him down!"

Several imperial guards appeared immediately, and hurriedly held Duoduo down.

Duduo struggled hard and roared repeatedly.

"Jirharang, you're crazy!"

"You actually secretly collude with so many ministers discussing politics. When my brother Wang comes back, he will let you know what is wrong!"

"Remember it!"

Ji Erhalang stared at Duo Duo, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, he remembered what Hauge said yesterday.

"Duo Duo has always held grudges. It is really inappropriate to put him under house arrest after seizing military power. It is better to kill him directly, so as to avoid future troubles forever!"

otherwise……

Thoughts in Jierhalang's mind were fighting endlessly, and he finally made a decision.

"Go, take him away, and take him back to the mansion for house arrest!"

Amidst the yelling and cursing, Doduo was dragged away.

After Duoduo left, Jierhalang smiled as he looked at the many ministers discussing state affairs in front of him.

"Thank you very much for your cooperation. Next, please join me with this old man to firmly control Doduo's army so that no trouble will arise!"

Among the ministers discussing state affairs in front of him, quite a few belonged to Dorgon's faction, but this time, most of them were on Jierhalang's side.

The reason is actually very simple. Shengjing was the capital of the Qing Dynasty. Everyone's wives and children, wealth and lives are all here!
No matter how good his reasons were for Duduo to get the Ming army to come to this house outside the city of Shengjing, he had actually lost the trust of the ministers who discussed politics.

After a pause, Jierharang's eyes fell on Hauge who was beside him.

"Big Belle Hauge has always been brave, and he is a good candidate to lead the army. From today, Hauge, you will take the position of Minister of the Ministry of War of the Qing Dynasty, and assist the old man in commanding the army to defend Shengjing!"

Hauge smiled, strode out, and saluted Jierhalang respectfully.

"Thank you Prince Zheng!"

……

That night, Prince Yu's Mansion.

There was a sound of ping-pong-pong, and Duoduo smashed everything he could see in front of him.

"Damn Jierharang, damn Hauge! This time, I have fallen for their tricks!"

Duoduo yelled, and all kinds of obscenities spewed out.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps.

Duduo raised his head in great displeasure and roared: "Have I ever said, don't bother me if you have nothing to do... Why is it you?"

Hauge, who was dressed in military uniform and his armor creaked when he walked, chuckled: "I didn't expect that, Prince Yu."

Duoduo said to Hauge coldly: "What are you doing at my house? You are not welcome here."

Hauge laughed loudly: "I'm not welcome? At this point, Prince Yu, do you think you still have a role to call the shots? Come!"

When Hauge gave an order, several soldiers behind him immediately stepped forward and held down Doduo directly.

Doduo's heart was full of warning signs, and he desperately struggled to call for help, but it was completely useless.

Hauge took out a small porcelain bottle, pulled out the cork in the bottle, and smiled coldly at Duo Duo.

"Prince Yu, this is the price you two brothers paid for ruining my succession!"

Without any hesitation, Hauge pinched Duduo's chin with one hand to keep him from shutting up, and poured all the poison in the small porcelain bottle into Duduo's mouth with the other hand.

After a while, Duduo's eyes widened with anger, his orifices were bleeding, his body gradually became stiff, and his death was extremely miserable.

Hauge smiled with satisfaction, and kicked Doduo's body.

"go!"
