The news about Li Xinghe among the people is now very popular, and there are even various versions circulated. It is said that Li Xinghe colluded with the rebels and the traitors cooperated inside and outside, and it is still a good thing. The good of Longyang caused hatred because of love, so that Li Xinghe had two powers and tarnished the prince.

There are various theories, but none of them seem to be able to explain the reason why Li Xinghe was sentenced to death, so they will not speak out to pollute the ears.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wen thought of another folk rumor, and quickly said to Luo Shuang'er as if offering a treasure.

"Miss Shuang'er, apart from the anti-king forces gathered in Guangzhou this time, the one who shocked the world the most was Princess Changping of the Ming Dynasty. She also appeared with the imperial edict of Emperor Chongzhen. And this Princess Changping is actually you, Ziyi

My sister’s master is Wu Mei Shitai!”

Luo Shuang'er, whose attention was invisibly diverted by Jiang Wen, finally said hoarsely: "Five masters? How can such a thing happen?"

Jiang Wen nodded slowly, touched his chin and said: "It's absolutely true, now even the words of Chongzhen's edict have been copied and transcribed, spread throughout the prefectures and counties, and the uproar cannot be cut off. Presumably more people will take advantage of the situation and let the Qing Dynasty

Ting has been anxious for a while."

Luo Shuang'er's face showed a hint of joy, but after a while, her charming face took on a look of annoyance again.

"So what? Emperor Chongzhen was unable to quell the chaos during his lifetime. Is it possible that after his death he can bring peace to the world? Now that dad is involved in it, his life will only become more difficult..."

Jiang Wen smiled happily, showing a hint of cunning.

"Miss Shuang'er, you are wrong. If we say that Emperor Chongzhen's true edict was of no use, it will definitely be of no use, but the fake edicts circulating in half of the country today can turn decay into magic."

"Fake edict?"

Luo Shuang'er's almond-shaped eyes opened slightly, as if she didn't understand what Jiang Wen's words meant, and asked in a low voice, "You haven't seen it with your own eyes, how do you know that the edict is fake?"

Jiang Wen smiled slightly and did not answer. The details here are indeed difficult to explain. Moreover, there are many theories about Chongzhen's edict in history. They are all indescribable and the contents are also different. For example, the "History of Ming Dynasty: Emperor Zhuang Lie" compiled by the Qing Dynasty

"It is recorded as follows: [The emperor's book skirt said: "I am cold and virtuous, and I bow to God, but all the ministers misunderstood me. I died without a face to see my ancestors, I took off my crown, and covered my face with my hair. Let the thieves divide me, and I will not be able to see my ancestors.

Injuring one of the common people."] This statement is probably quoted from "Jiashen Jiwen".

But a book with a very similar title, "Jiashen Chronicles", says: "On the 22nd, thieves found the late emperor's bow under a pine tree in Meishan. He hanged himself opposite the eunuch Wang Cheng'en, with the words "Emperor" written in his left hand.

"Two characters, wearing a blue-sleeved Taoist robe, red trousers, one foot wearing boots, one foot taking off boots, hair all messed up, looking inside, this is what I said."

You must know that Zhao Shijin, the author of "Jiashen Chronicles", was a Jinshi in the tenth year of Chongzhen, served as an official in the capital for a long time, and was in Beijing when the city was destroyed. This statement is obviously more reasonable. After all, Chongzhen was driven to a desperate situation by a critical situation, so don't act like you can follow him

He was carrying an edict in pen and ink, and it was even more impossible to bite his fingers and write so many words. It was only reasonable to leave two words in such a hurry to indicate his identity.

More importantly, the author of "Jiashen Chronicles" is Feng Menglong, the author of "Sanyan Liangpai". He compiled many unofficial historical records that recorded the historical events of the Jiashen years and edited it slightly. It is always easy to become a novelist.

Create your own.

But the novelist's pen is extraordinary after all. This most widely spread statement has entered the folk and even evolved into "kill all the civil and military officials with swords and swords, don't hurt the people in my city", which is becoming less and less like a

What the emperor said.

Taking a closer look, Emperor Chongzhen in the previous statement clearly had the intention of shirking the blame. He blamed Heaven one by one, and the officials misunderstood me. At the end of the sentence, he seemed to be saying harsh words, and he was confirmed to be a mean and unkind person.

The image of a foolish king at the end of his rope. So why did the Qing Dynasty use this term to compile history?

All this is just praise and criticism, in order to add a sentence at the end of this paragraph: "The great destiny has returned, the evil atmosphere is gone, and the emperor has to give a posthumous title and build a mausoleum, and the ceremony is grand. This is a holy dynasty with great virtues and a good life."

Qiangu], brazenly praised myself.

Faced with Emperor Chongzhen who had lost everything, since he knew that the situation was irreversible, he could not be so hard-spoken as to say the wise sayings spread among the people, let alone someone who could say soft words such as "Don't hurt the people."

As an emperor, the first thing he should be thinking about is the posthumous affairs, and the second thing should be the inheritance issue. If he dies, he will not enter the mausoleum, which is similar to issuing an edict to sin against oneself. There is no need to collect the body for me, and let the ministers assist the prince.

It is a first-class matter. This is an issue related to orthodoxy. It should be written into the imperial edict rather than blaming the minister.

Therefore, in Jiang Wen’s view, if there really is a Chongzhen edict in this world, then the third theory that is closest to the truth should be what Yang Shicong said in "Jiashen Hezhenlue": [A line of ink on the sleeve says: "Because

I have lost my country, I have no face to see my ancestors, and I dare not finally go to bed." Another line says: "All the officials went to the East Palace to visit." After hearing this, the official of Zhou Zhong came out to see it in person.]

But in today's rumors, the content of the imperial edict held by Princess Changping is obviously a mixture of the skin of "Jiashen Jiwen" and the bones of "Jiashen Hezhenlue". There are many exquisite words and sentences that are used for reference, which together ensure the truth.

At the same time, it avoids orthodox issues and adopts the most popular folk saying to fuel the flames. How can there be such a coincidence in the world!

In other words, if Chongzhen had this ability, just by relying on his exquisite skills of building walls and digging pits, he would not have become the king of subjugation who worked hard and died alone on the old crooked neck tree!

"Miss Luo, there is something I don't know whether to say or not. Whether this imperial edict is true or false, do you think anyone really cares?"

Seeing that Luo Shuang'er didn't believe it, Jiang Wen smiled and wanted to raise his hand, only to remember that his broken right hand was tied stiffly, with branches and Zhanlu swords tied together into a splint, and it was still waiting to heal.

"The "Zuo Zhuan" makes it very clear, 'Only weapons and names cannot be faked.' The fake imperial edict swore that [corrupt officials, rebellious ministers and traitors can be killed by everyone in the world],"

Is there anything more famous than this in the world?"

Jiang Wen laughed loudly in the tree hole and shook all the dead branches to the ground. "Now the sky is boiling outside. This imperial edict is just adding fuel to the fire. The ambition of the person who wrote this imperial edict seems to be more than just lifting the fire."

He wants to overthrow the glorious throne of Guangzhou, but he also plans to bring chaos to the world! Jiang saw four words between the words of this fake edict, which made me a little moved!"

Jiang Wen had never seen the fake edict, and he didn't know why the five masters were willing to cooperate in this scene. But he knew that it would be enough if everyone in the world was willing to believe that it was true.

For example, in Shang Kexi's eyes, Chongzhen, who has been dead for a long time, will be transformed into the most terrifying ghost through the posthumous edict, which will bring him oppression that can never be erased.

The spear of Longinus pierced Christ, and the blood flowed to the ground, which was the original sin that could not be cured. In the ethical concept at this time, regicide was also an unforgivable act. History has proved that even if it is an unjust killing,

The "false emperor" and "prince" who refused to obey also had to pay a heavy price, such as Li Zicheng who forced Chongzhen to death, Li Chengdong who pursued Shaowu and Longwu, and Wu Sangui who was about to kill Yongli.

Prince Regent Dorgon, who killed the crown prince Zhu Cihong by calling a deer a horse, seemed unable to escape such a fate.

Suddenly, now, the former Princess Changping appears with a posthumous edict, which means the "bones" and "blood" of the imperial power. He is still happy. If he doesn't kill her, the Qing court will never forgive her lightly. But if she kills her, the world will not tolerate her.

This "blood"-stained butcher will give countless people an excuse to fight against him. Therefore, no matter what the outcome is, Shang Kexi will be further and further away from his dream of "Eternal Town Tiannan".

For the people who are fighting a bloody battle in Guangzhou, this is not so much a legacy of Chongzhen as a political program that has been difficult to produce for a long time. Today, Hongguang, Longwu, Shaowu, Yongli and other forces have finally joined forces.

He also proved his determination to rebel to the remains of King Chuang.

——You see, we are sincerely rebelling this time and leaving no escape route. If you don’t want to be surrounded and killed, this is your last chance.

All in all, in the 17th year of Shunzhi, when the Qing Dynasty was overwhelming the world, the rebels who had been suffering for a long time finally united and issued their cry.

The only thing Jiang Wen didn't expect was that all this incredible thing actually started from a disastrous defeat of the Qing soldiers in Wuyi Mountain.

In the tree hole, Luo Shuang'er remained silent, and her quiet face seemed to reflect Jiang Wen's complicated thoughts. Luo Shuang'er caught a glimpse of Jiang Wen's clothes that were still wet with dew, and guessed that he must be guarding the ancient tree during the day and only wandering around at night.

Inquiring is not as heartless as he appears.

After a long time, neither of them spoke again, until a quiet inquiry came.

"Then, will my father be safe this time?"

Jiang Wen was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Luo Shuang'er's sincere face, he simply raised his injured arm a little and revealed the secret.

"Miss, stop thinking so wildly. My injury is not healed yet. Don't think that I don't know that you have lost all your martial arts skills. Even if you go back, it will only cause more trouble. It's true that you should seize the time to recover from your injuries."

Jiang Wen stopped paying attention to her, leaving the King of Han's green sword at his waist. He turned around and walked out of the tree hole, turned over and jumped up. In an instant, he was leaning on the tree trunk and resting on the branches.

Facing the increasingly complex situation, although Jiang Wen was not optimistic about their prospects and could guess that this time would be difficult, among these people, he knew that he could trust Li Dingguo's anti-Qing campaign without reservation.

ambition.

A year ago, Li Dingguo planned the bloody battle at Mopan Mountain and used all his troops to annihilate thousands of Qing troops. In exchange for the last great victory on the anti-Qing battlefield, he could no longer recover and could only lead his troops to attack Yunnan and Myanmar in a roundabout way.

In the middle of the jungle, his destined ending was to die in the wilderness in despair.

But now that the Wuyang Secret Road has appeared, Li Dingguo suddenly has the possibility to fight back and avenge his shame. Since he dares to rush to Guangzhou with the troops that Yongli squeezed out from his teeth, he will never live in an ignoble way.

idea.

Jiang Wen smiled faintly. With his current mind as a mirror, he could slowly consider many things.

He was very happy that a man with lofty ideals still had such courage and such skill. It was really unreasonable not to give him a push. Since ancient times, people who wanted to die were the least likely to die, but two people like him and Luo Shuang'er who wanted to survive wanted to spend their time safely.

Day, I'm afraid it will take a lot of trouble.
