Chapter 542 Epilogue: Picturesque Finale
In the great victory in Baoding, the Ming army achieved his merits and eliminated the main force of the Qing army.
Then the Ming army took the capital in one go.
On the first day of April, Emperor Zhu Ci entered the city surrounded by civil and military officials.
Several years have passed, but the city has not changed much after all.
Zhu Ci had imagined many scenes of the revival of the Shenjing, but when this day really came, his mood was extremely calm.
He led civil officials and military generals into the imperial city and then entered the palace city. As an announcement to restore the Shenjing, he was going to hold a grand dynasty meeting in the Huangji Hall.
At the dynasty meeting, Zhu Ci wore a big red twelve-chapter robe and sat upright on the imperial throne of the hall, accepting congratulations from civil and military officials.
I remember that when the Qing Dynasty first entered the pass, countless people saw the Ming Dynasty, and almost no one thought that the Ming Dynasty could succeed in the Northern Expedition and restore Shenjing.

It seems that the best result is to cut the river and govern it.
But Zhu Ci did not intend to be at peace with Jiangnan, nor was he willing to be at peace with Jiangnan.
He made a vow at that time to lead the Ming Dynasty to revive and revive its reputation.
He appointed capable ministers such as Wen Anzhi, Du Yinxi, Lu Zhenfei, etc. He promoted military generals such as Zheng Chenggong and Zeng Ying. He firmly believed that the Ming Dynasty would eventually revive.
As a result, he did it.
The Ming Dynasty had invincible cavalry, invincible cannons, invincible flintlock spears, invincible naval forces...
Those who once looked down on the decline of the Ming Dynasty were slapped in the face.
This feeling is really refreshing.
Zhu Ci is a king, but at the same time he is also a person with flesh and blood and emotions.
The most difficult thing is that he must restrain this emotion and try to deal with the problem from the perspective of a king.
Because he knew that every decision and every will of his may directly affect the battle situation between the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Just three days ago, the Shanhaiguan Guard surrendered, and yesterday Zhu Ci received news that the Shenyang Guard surrendered. Now Zhu Ci has sent people to take over Shenyang, and it will take only a few days for the entire Liaodong area to return to the embrace of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Ci was very pleased.
It is obvious that the emperor did not accomplish anything, the emperor did not accomplish anything, and even what his father did not accomplish. He did it.
But he knew that this was not enough.
Nurkandus, Annan, Xiaoliuqiu, and even the Western and Southern Asian countries...
There are too many places that require him to exert force.
Now the Ming Dynasty is like a sailing ship that needs a qualified helmman to take charge of the direction.
Zhu Ci is the helmman.
Perhaps it would be not enough to make the Ming Dynasty reach the peak of the world by his generation. Then let his son inherit his will and continue to take the helm for the Ming Dynasty.
If one generation is not enough, then two generations; if two generations are not enough, then three generations. One day, the Ming Dynasty can stand at the peak of the world.
There was nothing special at the dynasty meeting, it was nothing more than offering prisoners, rewards, and congratulations.
After going through the procedures one by one, Zhu Ci announced that he would go to court.
He did not stay outside the court for more, but climbed up to Jingshan surrounded by his close servants.
His father once hanged himself here to sacrifice his country, fulfilling the ancestral teachings of the emperor guarding the country and the king dying for the country.
He came here to tell his father that he did not disappoint him. Shen Jing was restored, and the Ming Dynasty was still the same Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Ci stood on the top of Jingshan and overlooked the majestic Forbidden City. The golden glazed tiles were dazzling, and the numerous palaces seemed to be whispering something in unison.
Zhu Ci's eyes were slightly red.
I saw that the country was like a painting, and he was also a person in the painting.
