Since Zhang Shicheng was defeated, he was escorted by Xiao Yun's army. Xiao Yun was afraid that something would happen on the road, so he rushed back to Jinling from the water. From the moment he was captured, this former hero did not say a word and kept lying on a hunger strike in the boat.

Now I have not eaten or drunk for three days and am imprisoned in a study in the Secretariat.

The study is not big. In addition to some ancient books, there are three calligraphy and paintings, with very large pictures, and they paint three major events. Zhang Shicheng has read a lot in recent years. Seeing that the first calligraphy and paintings had a big character "Zhao", the font style and brushwork are vigorous and the meaning is natural, and it is not something you can ask for." He only took a look and knew that this was the work of Song Weizong, the king of the fallen country in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, it aroused his interest, Zhang Shicheng, who had been sitting alone for three days and three nights, finally stood up, walked to the three calligraphy and paintings, and looked up with his neck tilted.

After only a few glances at the first calligraphy and painting, Zhang Shicheng could see clearly. This calligraphy and painting records the scene of the Jin soldiers destroying the Northern Song Dynasty and escorting Song Weizong. On the painting, Song Weizong had already taken off his rolling dragon robe, wearing prison clothes, hands and feet, and his neck, and had heavy iron chains. The concubines and queens accompanied him behind him were the same. There were many elite soldiers on both sides, wielding the horse whip and whipping them at will. The blood marks were clearly visible, and they had suffered a lot.

He read this historical book several times a few days ago. He remembered that after the defeat of the Song army, Song Weizong was insulted on his way to Shangjing. First, his beloved concubine Wang Wanrong and others were forcibly asked by the Jin generals. Then, after arriving at the capital of the Jin Kingdom, he was ordered to wear mourning clothes with Zhao Huan to visit the temple of Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda, which meant that the Jin Emperor offered prisoners to Taizu. Later, Song Huizong was humiliated by the Jin Emperor and named Duke Hunde, detained in Hanzhou (now Changtu County, Liaoning Province), and later moved to Wuguo City (now Yilan County, Heilongjiang Province). During the imprisonment, Song Huizong suffered mental torture and suffered a lot.

Later, Song Huizong sent his minister Cao Xun to secretly escape from Jin to the Southern Song Dynasty. Before his trip, he gave him a vest that he wore, which read "Come and save your parents." Song Huizong handed the vest with these words to Cao Xun, and cried and reminded Cao Xun to tell Gaozong, "Don't forget the pain of my journey north and save my parents earlier?" But Song Weizong didn't wait for anyone to come to save him.

After reading the first picture, Zhang Shicheng's eyes followed the second picture. This picture shows a weak man. The man was wearing a rolling dragon robe and dressed in the emperor. Behind him were hundreds of carriages, with gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin on the carriages, as if he was a businessman.

But Zhang Shicheng took a look and understood. The meaning of the picture is in line with the first painting. When the Jin soldiers besieged Kaifeng, they pretended to seek peace and asked Song Weizong's son Qinzong to go in person. Qinzong had no choice but to go there on the grounds that the Supreme Emperor was too frightened and was plagued by chronic diseases.

At dawn on November 30th, Qinzong led many ministers to the Jin camp, which was exactly the trap of the Jin people. After Qinzong arrived at the Jin camp, he was extremely coldly treated. Zong Wang and Zong Han did not meet him at all, and even placed him in three small houses in the west wing of the military camp. The furnishings inside the house were extremely simple. Apart from tables and chairs, there was only one earthen kang for sleeping and two felt mattresses. Outside the house was closely guarded by Jin soldiers, and at dusk, the door of the house was also Jin.

The soldiers were locked with iron chains, and the emperor and his ministers of Qinzong completely lost their freedom of movement. It was the cold winter month, and the Kaifeng area was raining and snowing, and the weather was surprisingly cold. In addition to enduring the torture of hunger during the day, Qinzong also had to endure the biting cold wind at night, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Thinking of all this in front of him, his heart was cut and he cried loudly. The thin man in the picture finally cried in the south, which made people feel heartbroken.

Zhang Shicheng sighed in his heart, and his eyes turned to the third picture. This calligraphy and painting painted a city. Countless people in the city burned and killed and plundered in the city. Millions of people had no choice but to eat. After eating all the leaves and cats and dogs in the city, they cut the starvation and killed them. The epidemic was prevalent, and countless people died of illness. The miserable situation was heartbreaking.

After reading it, Zhang Shicheng silently returned to the bamboo chair that had been sitting on for three days, frowned and thought deeply. Of course, he knew that these three calligraphy and paintings would never be placed here by chance. Someone deliberately placed them here. Although Zhu Yuanzhang was a beggar, his scheming and methods were not worse than anyone else. He deliberately did not kill himself, but left these three calligraphy and paintings. Of course, this was not without his intention. He would not have nothing to do when he was full. In such an elegantly arranged study, he left three disharmonious calligraphy and paintings to destroy the harmony of the study. Of course, he did this to warn himself or later generations. All of this was for him Zhang Shicheng to see.

All his actions were for himself. The purpose of these three calligraphy and paintings, the first two calligraphy and paintings, was to tell him that as a king, the country was destroyed and the family was completely unsuccessful. The third calligraphy and painting was to tell him that if he wanted the people of Suzhou to live a good life, the only way was to--?”

With such intentions, it is worthy of being Zhu Yuanzhang————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

After receiving the order, Li Shanchang did not dare to be negligent. After coming out of the Golden Palace, he rushed to the study of the Secretariat. Along the way, Li Shanchang was still thinking hard that Zhu Yuanzhang's initiative this morning was too strange. Judging from his years of experience following Zhu Yuanzhang, although Zhu Yuanzhang was kind and righteous to the people, he was definitely not such a generous person. What's more, Zhang Shicheng, a former hero who directly threatened his status. He never did not take action, and wanted to do it, and he would wipe out the roots. He said that he let Zhang Shicheng go and gave him Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Huzhou to kill him and he didn't believe that Zhu Yuanzhang would do this.

"Since Your Highness won't do this, why would he say this this morning?" Li Shanchang thought hard, and all this was beyond his expectations, making him a little confused.

After some thought, Li Shanchang gradually gained a glimpse. Zhu Yuanzhang kept expressing his intentions to the ministers in the morning court this morning, and also told the world that in addition to gaining fame, it is probably because the drunkard's intention is not to drink."

Recalling all the things that happened today's morning court, Li Shanchang suddenly felt that Zhu Yuanzhang used an unquestionable tone from beginning to end. Even Liu Bowen, whom he always valued very much, Feng Guoyong ignored it. This was never before, and Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was almost not a discussion, but an order?"

"Could it be-?" Li Shanchang suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and a whole body was shocked, and an incredible look appeared on his face.
