The war in Tongzhou reached Sun Chengzong's first ears. He immediately put down all the work at hand and took the Eighteen Light Cavalry. Despite his age and weakness, he rushed to Beijing to meet Chongzhen.

When Chongzhen was happy and encouraged Zhao Xing's formation to kill Dorgon, he suddenly heard that Zhao Xing was surrounded by Jiannu in Tongzhou, and was shocked at that time.

This is not because Chongzhen is really worried about Zhao Xing's life and death from the bottom of his heart, but this is still a political need.

Zhao Xing had just killed Dorgon, but in a blink of an eye, he was killed by the Jurchens. This was a staggering move. Especially this just-established national pillar, the heroic example of the anti-Jin was killed in a blink of an eye. This would be a huge blow to the morale of the entire Ming Dynasty. Even if you die again in two years, you must not die now. At least wait until the end of the anti-Jin period, at least you will give me a few more years of money. Is it easy for me to cultivate such a loyal and capable lonely minister?

Wenhua Palace summoned all the ministers to discuss how to rescue Zhao Xing, but the ministers excitedly talked about the rewards of merits and demerits after the war, but they did not talk about the issue of rescuing Zhao Xing.

For this reason, Chongzhen also knocked on the table several times, bringing the off-topic meeting back to the main point, but no matter how hard he tried, he still ended up going to the ministers' own contributions, and argued endlessly about this, and there was a situation where he rolled up his arms and sleeves and wanted to take action again.

In the end, Emperor Chongzhen could only sigh, lean on the back of the chair weakly, close his eyes, and began to figure out what to do with this matter.

When he wanted to lean on the back of his back, he felt that he had not leaned on it, and when he wanted to reach out to support his left and right, he did not reach it.

After opening his eyes and observing it for a while, he suddenly felt that the chair he had been sitting in for three years was so big that he had no support and couldn't rely on him.

Turning his head and looking at the back and under the chair, he found that although the nine-tailed dragon was fierce, it was indeed rugged and uneven. As long as he leaned over, it would hurt his back. Now under his butt, he felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

Amid a group of ministers' noise, Chongzhen began to study this chair boredly. This chair that was beloved by the people of the world. After patient and careful research, he finally found that the person sitting on this chair was not very comfortable. It was not that it was not very comfortable, but that it was quite uncomfortable. It was difficult to feel like a ray of light on his back and as if he was sitting on pins and needles.

At this time, Chongzhen suddenly realized that he had such good intentions when he designed this chair.

The ministers were still quarreling, and Chongzhen went off topic until he began to fall into the problem of deeply studying the chair.

The situation spread like this, from the beginning of sunrise until the sun slowly sets westward. Chongzhen, who was trapped in the study chair, suddenly felt something was wrong. He raised his head blankly and found that all the ministers were looking at him.

Chongzhen knew it, straightened his body, and coughed: "Everyone is hungry, are you? Do you want me to provide you with supper?"

Such a blunt inquiry made all the ministers feel embarrassed at that time, but with the awkward response, the gurgling sounded throughout the hall.

Chongzhen smiled helplessly: "Which topic is being argued about now? Can you tell me? Is the topic you are arguing about now related to the rescue of Zhao Xing, the pillar of the country?"

The chief assistant Huang Du stood up and was about to open his mouth.

Chongzhen, who was weak all over, shook his hand: "Forget it, I'm used to it." Then he leaned on his forehead with his hands: "I don't want to tell you anymore, it's useless to say it. Today I don't care about the meal, because my meal is still for those who are useful. Forget it. Let's leave, let's leave." Then he stood up, but his body shook. Wang Chengen quickly took Kaifang Tianhua and supported the young emperor, who seemed exhausted, and carefully reported to the white rice steamed buns behind him, as well as the pickles that the emperor loved to eat."

Although these words were quiet, they echoed in the hall like thunder.

Chongzhen glanced at the ministers in the hall, but found that there was no trace of shame on each minister's face.

"Let's go." Chongzhen gave powerless order. At this time, his hand grabbed Wang Chengen's hand tightly because he needed to find a support.

"The country is in danger, and you actually talked about the misfortune of a groom and a concubine. Are you, the so-called pillars of the country, talking about these in this Wenhua Hall?" With a confident roar, everyone in the hall was shocked. When they turned their heads and looked, Sun Chengzong, who was storming in anger, was strode forward with great angrily.

Seeing Sun Chengzong coming in, Chongzhen's strength seemed to suddenly disappear completely. He sat back on the dragon chaise long, tears almost flowing out, his lips trembled, and it took him a long time to say: "Master Sun, your boss is finally back."

Sun Chengzong stepped forward and knelt down with a loud bang: "Old minister Sun Chengzong, kowtow to the emperor."

Standing up with difficulty and holding onto the table, Chongzhen raised his hand to Master Sun: "Master Sun, please get up." Then he paused: "Big companion, bring a chair for Master Sun and put on a cup of hot tea."

This is a kindness that the Ming Dynasty did not have, but Sun Chengzong did not sit there. He just took the tea, drank it in one gulp, and then returned the teacup to Wang Chengen. He shouted directly at Chongzhen and to the ministers in the palace: "Zhao Xing was besieged by Tongzhou, Huang Taiji had all his strength. He had already concentrated almost all his troops on the battlefield to annihilate Zhao Xing. Then, when our Ming Dynasty counterattacks, it's time to annihilate the invading Jiannu, and it's time for the hundred-year shame of my Ming Dynasty to be relieved."

With his inspirational shouting, the whole court finally returned to the main topic.

When Chongzhen heard this, he seemed as if all his strength suddenly returned to his body again. He suddenly stood up, supported the table with both hands, and asked gently tremblingly: "Why does the master say this?"

At this time, Sun Chengzong no longer had the level of monarch and minister, and turned his head solemnly and asked: "Can Lord Mangui be there?"

Man Gui quickly stood up and bowed: "I am here."

Regardless of his claim, Sun Chengzong asked directly: "With the emperor's will, you are choosing warriors from the royal army. How are you preparing now?"

Man Gui hesitated, but still replied: "Select 30,000 carefully."

"May be a fight?"

"20,000 people can fight."

Sun Chengzong immediately turned around and said, "Little Duke."

Zhang Zhiji immediately stood up: "Master Sun."

"How many people can fight in your Beijing camp?" Then he stared at him: "I mean, people can fight in the field."

Zhang Zhiji answered without hesitation: "The guards of the capital do not dare to slack off, but my subordinate Wang Dazhuang and others will die in the field."

Sun Chengzong nodded with satisfaction: "Now, I will dispatch troops in front of the emperor and the cabinet. Tomorrow, Man Gui, Zhang Zhi and his army will join forces to 30,000 to raid the empty Huang Taiji old nest Nanyuan. The battle must be successful. If it fails, all the leading generals will be killed." Then Hu Hai looked at Chongzhen and the chief assistant Huang Du with flamboyance.

Pavilion member Zhou Tingru stood up and wanted to refute.

Sun Chengzong yelled: "Get out."

Zhou Tingru immediately shut up in front of this old man.

Chongzhen immediately decided: "Everything is decided by Master Sun, Minister of War."

Huang Xu also stated: "Master Sun should be the one who dispatches troops."

Sun Chengzong immediately responded: "Driven all the troops outside the city to serve the king and move their camps to oppress Tongzhou. I dispatched Zu Dashou, You Shilu and others to attack Luanzhou, Wang Weicheng and others to attack Qian'an, Shi Kefa attacked Yongping, Xie Shangzheng attacked Zunhua, and the entire army came out together, please give me instructions."

Chongzhen nodded on the spot, and Huang immediately wrote the official document.

Sun Chengzong pulled the official document from Huang Du: "Stop talking, I'm leaving." Then he took Man Gui and Zhang Zhiji from the hall and strode away directly.
