The moment he saw Kongming lantern, Zhu Cilang was like lightning and lightning, and he remembered an invention that was enough to shock the world in this era, a hot air balloon.

This thing can fly with the help of heated air. If you bring a hot air balloon to save Hongniang, you will definitely succeed.

You should know that in the Ming Dynasty, although many Western imported products were used, no one had seen magical things like hot air balloons.

More importantly, the hot air balloon can ride it out of the thief's barracks after rescuing the Hongniang. Li Zicheng had great skills and could only watch and was helpless.

Zhu Cixuan had fantasized that the Ming Dynasty would build a hot air balloon army. In this way, there would be an air force belonging to the Ming Dynasty.

In this era, air combat can be said to be an invincible existence. If there is really a hot air balloon army, then Zhu Cilang is sure that it will only take a minute to destroy the Qing Dynasty.

But is reality really so easy? No, not easy, but extremely difficult.

First of all, even if you understand the principles of hot air balloons, you cannot find the raw materials for hot air balloons. Or, this dye is extremely expensive and you can't make it.

But Zhu Cixuan couldn't control so much. He hurriedly returned to Zhongcui Palace and ordered Meng Fanchao beside him: "Meng Fanchao, hurry up and leave the palace overnight and quickly summon Linghu Yunlong to the palace to meet him. That's right, I want to summon him for a hundred thousand urgent matters."

It was already late at night on the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Emperor Chongzhen also drank mildly soaked, so he stayed with Empress Zhou of Kunning Palace.

The Crown Prince was in a hurry and was about to summon Linghu Yunlong before dawn. However, this was the palace. Linghu Yunlong was the commander of the Tiger Army. When he summoned him late at night, Emperor Chongzhen must be criticized. Otherwise, this was the intention of an unjust minister.

"Your Highness, it's so late. Are you in need?" Meng Fanchao asked in surprise.

Zhu Cilang sighed: "I have thought of a solution, maybe it can help Li Yan."

"Dian, Your Highness, this matter is aroused by the shock." Meng Fanchao stammered.

Zhu Cilang said anxiously: "Then go, what are you waiting for!"

"But..." Meng Fanchao hesitated for a moment, but bowed and said, "I obey the order."

When the young eunuch on duty in Kunning Palace heard that the prince was going to meet Linghu Yunlong, the chief general of the Huben camp outside the city overnight, he was really shocked: "Men Guard, can't you wait until tomorrow?"

Meng Fanchao bowed helplessly: "Highlights for 100,000 yuan, the Crown Prince's orders must be made to call General Linghu Yunlong into the palace tonight. Eunuch Sun, I'm here to help you."

The person responsible for duty next to Emperor Chongzhen tonight was Eunuch Sun. He sighed helplessly when Meng Fanchao said this: "I can go in and report it, but if I make Emperor Long live, I will be powerless."

Meng Fanchao nodded: "Thank you, Eunuch Sun."

Eunuch Sun was actually nervous, but he had no choice but to take small steps, and try to walk outside Kunning Palace as quietly as possible. After hesitating for a while, he wanted to knock on the door several times but was so scared that he shrank his hand back.

After gritting his teeth, Eunuch Sun dared to knock on the people softly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

When the grandfather Sun called out the third time, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly became shocked: "Who!"

As an emperor, he is naturally wary of some people with ulterior motives. The assassination of the king and the killing of the emperor often happens in history.

Therefore, no one dares to disturb the emperor when he goes to bed at night. Unless a major event of the sky falling and the earth sinking, the emperor will be furious and chop off your head in minutes.

Emperor Chongzhen was already asleep, and it was extremely frightened to wake him up at this time. Even Empress Zhou woke up and lit the candlelight next to her first.

Chongzhen directly touched the sword hanging on the mosquito net at the end of the bed.

"The Emperor, Meng Fanchao, the guard of the Crown Prince of Zhongcui Palace, asked for a visit, saying that his Highness wanted to summon the Hu Ben Camp outside the palace and ask the Emperor for approval." When he finished speaking, Eunuch Sun was really worried about Zhu Cixuan.

Sure enough, Chongzhen Thunder inside was furious: "This rebellious son, does he want to rebel!"

Chongzhen's words may have been a momentary aura, but they were extremely serious when they said it. Queen Zhou couldn't help but exclaim: "Long live."

"Get in!" Emperor Chongzhen was furious. He ignored his disheveled clothes and only wore his close-fitting underwear. He was holding the Shang Fang sword in his hand, and sat on the head of the bed with anger.

Queen Zhou had already put on a coat and put it on her body.

Meng Fanchao walked in with fear and gritted his teeth, bent his knees and knelt down: "Long live the Lord."

"Say, what will Cilang do when he sees Hu Ben's army?" Emperor Chongzhen's tone was cold. If Meng Fanchao had no reasonable reason, Zhu Cilang would be in great trouble.

Meng Fanchao was also full of horror: "When I say to Master Long Sui, the Hongniang of Luoshan County has made contributions to defending the city. Hongniang led the way to defend Luoshan County, so that the territory of Henan could be protected from the suffering of bandits. However, Hongniang was seriously injured in fighting and was captured by the bandits. His Highness the Crown Prince said that His Highness the Crown Prince said that he had thought of a way, which might, or might rescue Hongniang."

Chongzhen naturally knew about Luoshan County, and he also knew that after the bandits of Hongniang, he was the one who had recruited Hongniang, who fought hard to protect the city, which made the thieves return in vain.

Luoshan County is the gateway to the south of Henan. It is precisely because of Hong Niangzi's fierce battle that the thieves cannot stand close to Henan and rampant.

After hearing what Meng Fanchao said, Emperor Chongzhen's face looked a little better. He turned his sword back to his sheath: "Hmph, what's the matter in the middle of the night? Can you summon him tomorrow?"

Although he said that, Emperor Chongzhen's tone obviously relaxed.

Meng Fanchao's uneasy heart finally let go. He kowtowed and said respectfully: "When you say that, Hong Madam is extremely critical in the thief camp. I thought of a way to rescue him earlier, so I had more hope. I think that His Highness had come up with some clever plan, so I would like to ask Long Live to be sure."

Emperor Chongzhen snorted coldly: "Come here, draw an order!"

With the imperial edict of Emperor Chongzhen, the gates of the 49th city dared to open. Meng Fanchao was far away and rushed out of the city in a hurry, heading straight for the Hu Ben Army camp.

Huben Camp was stationed outside the city, and this army affiliated with Zhu Cixuan could not enter the city. When he arrived at Huben Camp, Meng Fanchao told Linghu Yunlong that Zhu Cixuan's Xuanzhao.

Linghu Yunlong didn't say anything, and followed Meng Fanchao with his horse and rushed back to Beijing again.

When he arrived at the Forbidden City and entered Zhongcui Palace, the sky had already brightened slightly. Zhu Cilang's eyes were covered in blood. He obviously had not slept all night and was waiting for Linghu Yunlong in the hall.
