Chapter 1 Huang Taiji Proclaims Emperor (3)
Chapter 1 Huang Taiji proclaimed himself emperor (Three)
In the tenth year of Tiancong, Bingzi, the ninth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, on the sixth day of the third month, Huang Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty issued an edict to change the Wenguan into the Third Court, namely the Neiguo History Academy, the Neijian Secretariat Academy, and the Neihong Wenguan. They were assigned to the office.
The National History Academy records the emperor's daily edicts, collects imperial writings, and compiles historical books for the emperor's military administration, compiles historical books, writes the congratulations of the suburbs of heavenly temples, and reads the celebrations of the ancestors of all dynasties, compiles the records of the ancestors of all dynasties, compiles all confidential documents, and writes the official promotion and demotion books, writes the edicts of the mother and wife of the heroes, seals the texts, and posthumously given to the Beile books. Any matters conducted by the six ministries can be recorded in history. All letters from neighboring countries can be compiled into history books.
The inner secretariat compiled letters to exchanges with foreign countries, recorded memorials from various government offices, complaints of injustice, emperor's imperial edicts, civil and military officials, and also paid sacrifices to the Confucian Temple and issued documents to the civil and military officials.
Neihong Wenyuan explained that the good and evil acts of all dynasties were conducted, and the imperial court was taught by the prince, and the prince was taught by the prince, and the system was issued.
The three inner courts had a grand sect and a bachelor's degree, respectively, and were held by Manchu and Han officials. This was the beginning of the establishment of a grand sect in the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty inherited the Ming system, and there was no prime minister, and the grand sect participated in the discussion of the major policies of military and national affairs. The three inner courts were "considered in the Han Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty", that is, they were established by referring to the system of the Hanlin Academy and the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty and adapting it.
Fan Wencheng was appointed as the Grand Secretary of the Academy of Secretariat, while Xifu was appointed as the Grand Secretary of the National History Academy, and Ganglin was appointed as the Grand Secretary of the National Academy of Hongwen.
In April, Huang Taiji announced his ascension to the throne, calling him "Kuanwen Rensheng Emperor". He named the country the Qing Dynasty and changed the ruling period to the first year of Chongde. He built the Circular Mound in Shengjing, Fangze, sacrificed to the heaven and earth, and built the Taimiao to serve the ancestors.
The White Jade "The Treasure of the Qing Dynasty's Order" sacrifice to the ceremony of heaven and earth. On the 11th, at dawn, Huang Taiji led all the Beile, Manchu, Mongolian, and Han officials to go out of the gate of Desheng and dismounted at the Temple of Heaven. Two guided officials from Manchu and Han led them to the altar, stood at the God's throne, burned incense, and led the ministers to perform three kneelings and nine kowtows, offer silk, and serve wine. Then, Huang Taiji led all the ministers to kneel, read the officials to hold the blessings to the altar, kneel northward, and read the blessings
, The text says: "On April 11, the Emperor of the Manchu Kingdom, Huang Taiji, dared to inform the god of the Emperor Tianhou, said: "Mengsheng to the people's feelings, practice the throne of the emperor, establish the country and call it the Qing Dynasty, and change the Yuan Dynasty to the first year of Chongde." He posthumously honored the ancestor as King Ze, Emperor Gaozu was King Qing, Great Master Chang, and Emperor Fu. Huang Kaunurhaci posthumously named "Wu", the temple name is Taizu, and the tomb is named Fuling. He posthumously awarded the titles of meritorious officials and was granted the titles of Taimiao.
A ceremony of honorary title was held. The ceremony was held at the east of the Temple of Heaven. Huang Taiji was promoted from the middle level to the altar, the imperial gold chair, and the ministers of the Belle stood in the left and right sequence, and began to play music. They performed two times, three kneelings and nine kowtows.
The left ban Heshuo Melgen Daiqing Beile Dorgon, Korchin Beile Tu Xietu Jinong Badali, Heshuo Erke Chu Huer Beile Dodd, Heshuo Beilehaoge, Right ban Heshuo Beile Yuetu, Beiledudu, and Marshal Mao Wenlong, held the treasures respectively and knelt on his order. Huang Taiji received the treasures and handed them over to the inner court officials and placed them in the treasure box. At the same time, the ceremonial guards were placed on the left and right of Huang Taiji, and the crowd performed two more kneeling and nine kowtows.
Dai Shan represents Manchuria, Wu Ke Shan represents Mongolia, Fan Wencheng represents Han officials, and Guanghai Jun represents Korea. He holds the four styles of Manchuria, Mongolia, Han and Korea, and declares: "My emperor responds to Tianshun people, cultivates virtue, conquers Korea, unifies Mongolia, and obtains jade seals, Fu Rui Zhao responds to great reputations and great achievements, and spreads the world. Therefore, all the ministers of Belor inside and outside jointly promoted it. The emperor respected the title of "Kuanwen Rensheng Emperor", and the founding of the country was called "Da Qing", and the Yuan Dynasty was changed to the first year of "Chongde". The declaration ended, and then he performed again
Two kneeling three times and nine kowtows. Please note that using four styles of writing is not only a matter of language form, but also a political symbol, indicating that Huang Taiji not only represents the interests of Manchuria, but also the interests of Mongolians, and the interests of the Han and North Korea. In other words, Emperor Chongde was not only the emperor of Manchuria, but also the emperor of Mongolia, the emperor of Han and the emperor of Koreans. In short, Huang Taiji was the co-lord of Manchuria, Mongolian, Han people, and the communist ruler of the Korean world, which was very different from Nurhaci back then.
Later, he paid homage to the ancestral tomb, followed his ancestors and made great contributions to the great heroes. On the 12th day, Huang Taiji divided the military achievements of his brothers and nephews: he appointed Da Beile Daishan as Prince Heshuoli, Belejirgalang as Prince Heshuozheng, Bele Dorgon as Prince Heshuorui, Bele Duoduo as Prince Heshuoyu, Bele Haoge as Prince Heshuosu, and Yue Tuo as Prince Heshuocheng. He also divided the military achievements of the Mongolian vassals of Mongolian vassals, and the court ceremony of the court, the New Year's Day celebration ceremony was established, and the names of the halls in the palace were determined.
In May, the Five Palaces were established, and the Qingning Palace was established as the Empress of the Central Palace. The Great Concubine Borjijit clan was the main palace. The Eastern Palace was the Chen Concubine of Guansui Palace, the Eastern Palace was the Imperial Concubine of Linzhi Palace, the Western Palace was the Shu Concubine of Yanqing Palace, and the Western Palace was the Zhuang Concubine of Yongfu Palace. Except for the Empress of Qingning Palace, the other four palaces were completely different from those in history. They were replaced with four women that Zhu Yinglong was not familiar with. One of them was Niu Gulu. The four concubines led the princess, concubines, and ordered the wife to go to the emperor and the empress to pay tribute.
In addition to the Three Courts and Six Departments, Huang Taiji imitated the lighting system and set up a supervisory agency - the Censorate. His duties were to participate in the meeting, the case trial, the inspection office, the supervision examination, etc. "Whoever has any political absurdity, the Minister of Beile is arrogant, greedy, cruel, and rude, the Censorate will speak out in a blunt manner. Even if the reporter is involved in the falsehood, he will not be punished." Huang Taiji stipulated that the functions of the Censorate are: First, inspect the emperor, if there is any fault, there will be no hidden advice. Second, inspect the ministers of Beile, if there is any fault in government affairs, such as drinking, and being greedy for pleasure, the Censorate will be based on the
In fact, the investigation and report. Third, the inspectors of the six ministries, such as the Ministry of Justice, whether the case is unfair or delayed for too long, etc., and the investigation and report. Fourth, the self-defense and inspection are prevented. In view of the administration of the Ming Dynasty, corruption and bribery, the Censorate could not be exempted and ordered their officials to inspect each other. Huang Taiji specifically pointed out that the Censorate officials were censors, "who said they were not guilty, and they would not commit crimes." In our words today, "the speakers are not guilty", which is a special treatment for censors. But in fact, it is not the case. If the censors really say it wrong and anger the emperor, they will still be exempted from office.
The Lifan Academy was established in the Ming Dynasty. This was an institution established by the Later Jin Dynasty to manage Mongolian affairs. On June 13, Huang Taiji ordered the Censorate to Chengzheng Nikan to inherit the government as the Mongolian yamen, responsible for managing the affairs of various Mongolian ministries. The official system was only divided into second-class Chengzheng and second-class participation in politics, with three or four members in each.
The three inner courts, six ministries, the Censorate and the Lifan Academy are collectively known as the "Three Courts, Six Ministrys and Two Offices". This is also the origin of the Qing Dynasty inheritance system in history.
In the words of Huang Taiji, the territory of the Qing Dynasty was said to Huang Chenghuang: Since he succeeded to the throne, he was blessed by heaven. From the northeast coast to the northwest coast, he sent dogs, deer countries, and places where black foxes and sables were not used for farming, fishing and hunting, and the Erut tribes, and even the source of the Onan River, and the far and near countries were surrendering. The Mongolian Yuan and the Korean countries all entered the territory.
That is to say, the vast areas from the Sea of Okhotsk in the east, to Lake Balkash, Lake Baikal in the south, and across the Khingan Mountains in the north, the former Mingnuer Gandusi, Liaodong Dusi (except in northeaster Shandong) and some Mongolian tribes are all placed under the jurisdiction of the Qing Dynasty. The area is about 5 million square kilometers, which is about the same area as the actual control of the Ming Dynasty.
Although the land controlled is equal, the population is extremely unequal. The Ming Dynasty had nearly a hundred million people, and the Later Jin and the tribes surrendered were only five or six million, and the population was less than one-sixteenth of the Ming Dynasty. The land resources were either forests or grasslands, and the endless mountains were still bitter and cold. I don’t know how many places were deserted thousands of miles away. It can be said that the land of all great powers has no people.
Huang Taiji issued an "Announcement" as early as the third year of Tiancong, that is, on November 15, the second year of Chongzhen, and Huang Taiji issued an "Anti-God": If we say that our country is small, it is not appropriate to be called emperor. In ancient times, Liao, Jin and Yuan all achieved the imperial career since they were small, and they also forbidden to be emperor! Moreover, Erzhu Taizu was once a monk and refuted to him to achieve the imperial career. How could one surname be ordered to be permanently unchanged? The fortune of heaven is circulating and goes on. Some emperors abandoned their common husbands, and some ordinary husbands rose up and became emperors. This is all the will of heaven and cannot be done by man!
Huang Taiji's ambition is vividly expressed in this "Revelation", which can be said to be full of ambitions. Now North Korea in the east and Mongolia in the west have no threat to the Qing Dynasty. Huang Taiji's next goal is to attack Ming. However, the Ming Dynasty is no longer the weak and internal and external difficulties ten years ago. It is like an old tree that has been rejuvenated in the second spring, with its strengths and strong branches, and the rotten trunks constantly provide this huge nutrient to the branches. If there is no external influence, one day the branches will grow into the main trunk, allowing them to grow into a lush tree.
To move troops, you must have an excuse and have a word of reason. Whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, you are not fighting for some benefits now. This is a battle for the world and will rule the people in the future. Just like the underworld has been whitewashed, you can no longer do the past. Even if you do it, you can only do it secretly. You must have righteousness and status. In this way, the people will return to you after unifying the world. Otherwise, the emperor will not be able to sit for a long time by relying on killing and high-pressure policies.
The Ming Dynasty's attitude of ignoring and cold-eyed by the sidelines made Huang Taiji feel at a loss. He thought that once he ascended the throne, the young and energetic emperor of the Ming Dynasty would not tolerate it and would definitely take action. Even if he did not send troops immediately, he would order the closure of border trades and withdrawal of Ming's investments and merchants in the Qing Dynasty. But none of this happened. It seemed that he had done something irrelevant. Did he not have any interest, or was there a bigger conspiracy?
"Huang Taiji must be thinking, why did I have no reaction at all this time? Or do I take some extreme revenge like discussing the matter in Dongjiang, such as robbing the woman he wants to marry?" Zhu Yinglong smiled very happily. Zhu Yinglong didn't want to react, because the loss was on his own. Apart from the Qing Dynasty's own military rations, more than half of the grain circulation in Shengjing was secretly controlled by the Ming Dynasty. However, with Dorgon's cover, Huang Taiji could not discover this secret. He also made weapons. He was basically Han people and had already penetrated. He was good at this. He would not find it after one or two wars. Now the Qing Dynasty has not been able to do so.
There are not many battles to fight, at most, they are preparing for war and training soldiers. No one knows how many inferior weapons were sent to the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty for use. Zhu Yinglong's "corrosion" plan has quietly entered the Qing Dynasty. It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. It is impossible to learn the good ones, and learn the bad ones. The generals of the Eight Banners have also begun to learn how to fight crickets, walk birds, eat empty spaces, falsely report losses and other means. The army has begun to slowly corrupt. When Huang Taiji is full of confidence and the emperor who is unifying the world, he suddenly finds that the generals around him can no longer ride a horse and can no longer pull a crossbow. I wonder what kind of expression it will be?
To defeat the enemy without fighting is the best strategy to destroy a country!
