Chapter 0116 No matter what, no matter what, the trend will always move forward

"Your Majesty, Li Zicheng, killed more than 70,000 soldiers in front and behind, with heavy casualties. The rebels have ordered the city to be massacred."

"Your Majesty, the rebel Li Zicheng has arrived at Juyongguan. The eunuch of the army, Du Zhizhi, general Tang Tong surrendered without fighting. At the same time, Liu Fangliang led the southern army and went east to Guguan. After Zhending prefect Qiu Maohua, guerrilla Xie Sufu surrendered, and Grand Secretary Li Jiantai surrendered in Baoding."

"Your Majesty, the rebel Li Zicheng has passed Changping and arrived in Shahe."

The person who kept coming in to report was a palace eunuch with a sharp voice, his limbs touched the ground, and his tone was trembling.

"I... I know, Tang Tong, Qiu Maohua, Xie Sufu, and Li Jiantai, he received the salary of the court and surrendered without fighting. A good Baoding city was easily occupied by the thief. It is really a shame for my Ming Dynasty." He sat on a dragon bed filled with flowers, but there were only three or five palace maids in the empty hall, and the eunuch who knelt down to the ground.

"I will be ordered by Gaobeidian to defend the army. I will have a great reward. I will defend the city gate from Xizhimen. I have arranged for Wu Sangui to enter Beijing. The rebel Li Zicheng can be captured just now. Eunuch Cao, you go down first."

The eunuch known as Eunuch Cao knelt down and bowed repeatedly, retreated dozens of steps, and walked out of the hall, which had the three big words "Qianqing Palace" written on it.

"Your Majesty, the rebel Li Zicheng has conquered Gaobeidian"

"Your Majesty, the rebel Li Zicheng used red-clothed cannons to bomb Xizhimen. It's obvious that Xizhimen can't be defended."

"Your Majesty, Pingze Gate and Zhangyi Gate have also been broken."

"His Majesty……"

Late at night, the eunuch known as Eunuch Cao opened a gate of the outer city. The three big words "Guangning Gate" were particularly eye-catching under the reflection of swords and guns and the illumination of torches.

The team riding war horses and swords and guns entered the imperial city that had been for hundreds of years through Guangning Gate in turn.

"Your Majesty, Eunuch Cao is also considering you to avoid the devastation of the people in the palace. This time, I was entrusted by the King of Chuang to come here, just to tell Your Majesty that the King of Chuang has no ambition to be the emperor. He only asked to discuss the cemetery of the northwest as the real King of Chuang and reward a million troops. Then the King of Chuang should be based in Henan. As long as your Majesty gives the order, the King of Chuang can serve as a helper of the court, eliminate rebels from all over the country, and help Your Majesty attack Huang Taiji, a vassal king in Liaodong.

But the King of Chuang had a small request. Although he was his minister, he did not follow the orders to visit him. He hoped that his majesty would be magnanimous and correct. "It was still the "Qianqing Palace". However, at this time, the few ministers in the palace surrounded a eunuch, and the eunuch looked a little arrogant.

A eunuch stood up with a sharp voice:

"Du Xun, and Cao Huachun, you are all people who eat the salary of the court. How can you recognize the thief as your father? Instead, you force Your Majesty to break into the king's army and ignore the way of the king and his subjects. This is the crime of great rebellion. You even want Your Majesty to be named the king. How arrogant and so ruthless!

Your Majesty, my Ming Dynasty ancestral teachings, the emperor guards the country, the king dies, my king Chengen vows to guard His Majesty to the death, and together with His Majesty, this towering imperial city."

Looking at the ministers in the hall who were already whispering in an orderly manner, the man wearing a dragon robe looked at Du Xun, then Wang Chengen, looked around the ministers and spoke:

"My ministers, what are the good plans? Does Li Zicheng really want to be king in Henan? Or is he greedy for this great Longdu City and my country? I think it is okay to be named King of Chuang. What do you think?"

None of the ministers spoke, and no one dared to look directly at this noble king.

"You, you, you...you...you are the things you share your worries about eating the king's fortune. I am not the monarch of the country that has been destroyed, you are all ministers of the country that has been destroyed. A batch of food buckets! Food buckets!!! Li Zicheng, a traitor, bullies me in the Ming Dynasty, has no one." The man on the dragon bed roared, threw off his dragon robe, and turned back to the harem.

"The prince and the princes have already left the city, right?" The emperor on the dragon bed disheveled his hair and asked the eunuch beside him.

"We have already put on makeup and become civilians, and we have gone out of the city through the secret passage," the eunuch replied.

"My Ming Dynasty's bloodline cannot be broken." The emperor whistled to the sky, "Empress Zhou, you are *, so you should accompany me to die for the country. What do you have to say?"

"I'm not willing to die, but it's a pity that you don't listen to my advice on weekdays. Yuan Chonghuan and Sun Chuanting, who are not good generals and loyal ministers, and who are not generals who protect the country? Now there is no one available in the entire court. You are also a sinner. We still have a home in Nanlongdu, and there is another home, but the Ai family cannot accompany me." Empress Zhou cried like rain and went with a white silk.

"Empress Zhang..."

"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about it, I'll go too."

"Princess Changping, you are only 15 years old, Princess Zhaoren, you are only 6 years old, I wish you not to be born in the imperial family for generations." As he spoke, his sword fell, and the two princesses fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty, no one is coming, don't knock it anymore. The ministers in the court either surrendered or had already died in the chaos. Cao Huachun and Du Xun and the two thieves have led the thief into the inner city. Let's go quickly, put on makeup, find a way to leave the city, and keep the green mountains there. We are in Nanlongdu, and there are still a group of ministers waiting for Your Majesty to come in person."

"Thank you, you also said that the emperor guards the country and the king dies in the country. I am also a descendant of Taizu. How can I escape at the fortress? How can I give this great country to the thief? How can I humiliate the thief in person???? The queen and the princess have gone, but if they die, they will die. What are you afraid of? What are you going to meet them underground???" The man called His Majesty threw down the drumsticks, and blood seemed to flash between his hands. The three big words "Jingyang Palace" could be vaguely seen under the background.

"Your Majesty, Wang Chengen is willing to accompany Your Majesty to go through this last section of the road. Your Majesty is about to surrender. I am willing to serve Your Majesty for the rest of my life. Your Majesty is about to die. I am willing to accompany Your Majesty for a hundred years without hesitation."

"Chenge, accompany me to the Coal Mountain. Remember to wear it more decently and don't lose our royal ethics." The dragon robe was covered in blood, and the man who came down from the dragon throne and the dragon bed was no longer as majestic as usual, but full of helplessness of fate.

In the fire, the fire, the old locust tree on the coal mountain had just sprouted green buds, and the crabapple tree had just begun to have a little spring color, but in the fire and fighting, when a eunuch and an emperor untied the silk belt of his robe and tied it into a knot, the imperial city had to be replaced with a new owner.

As the fire and two men on the coal mountain put their heads into the knot, the scene changed again—

"It's been so many years, but there's still no news about Zhu Yunwen. Did my nephew really die in the Jingnan period? Or did he really become a monk?" The person who spoke was a tall man wearing a dragon robe.

"Your Majesty, it's been ten years. Whether it's Jiuzhou or the Three Treasures to the Western countries, there will be no news about Zhu Yunwen again. Your reputation has been subdued by all over the world. This thousands of miles of land has already belonged to Your Majesty. What's the fear of a little Zhu Yunwen?" The speaker was a monk wearing black.

"Sir Young Master, please do not be polite. Although I raised an army in the name of Jingnan and Qingjun, my father was in Zhu Yunwen after all, and Zhu Yunwen was the eldest son and grandson after all, and the crown prince was deeply favored by his father. Once Zhu Yunwen could not burn all the wild fires, I was worried that the world would attack again, and I would inevitably feel a little anxious."

"Haha, the people's resources are all carefully studied by the people. We know that the sufferings of the people will become an emperor forever. The great success of the Jingnan period is also due to the destiny. Whether Zhu Yunwen is alive or dead, it has nothing to do with the overall situation," said the monk in black.

"Sir Shao Shi is unwilling to enter the court again now, so I have nothing to say. Since the "Yongle Encyclopedia" was completed, Shao Shi is willing to accompany the ancient Buddha in the green lamp. I promised it, but life in the temple is bound to be hard, and I have to be wronged by Master Shao Shi." The man known as His Majesty faced the monk in black with a sincere attitude.

"Daoyan has been a young man and has enough to live a life of pure tea and simple food. However, the palace maids given by Your Majesty are all external things. I have all returned to the cabinet or been dismissed. I hope Your Majesty will not blame his subordinates."

"Sir Young Master is indeed not an ordinary person, but I still have something unknown. According to what you said, after the Dragon Capital was established, you and Liu Ji sealed the dragon vein. According to Liu Ji, there are no dragon veins in the southern dragon, and the original treasure land in the south can no longer have a king. I wonder if it is true or false?"

"Your Majesty, the theory of ghosts and gods has existed since ancient times, but the emperor should regard sentient beings as the world, and the country is upright and the heavenly mind is smooth. As for the matter of the dragon vein, the theory of the emperor's aura is half true and half false. I will listen to it. Although I am not talented, I can only know a little about the various schools of thought, but it is far inferior to Liu Ji. Liu Ji's learning to study the heavens and man. According to Liu Ji, this great dragon capital and the country of the Ming Dynasty will inevitably lead to thousands of sons and grandchildren. Why do you worry about it?"

"Thousands of sons and grandchildren, I hope the late emperor will bless and bless the people"

At this time, a eunuch hurriedly came from outside the hall:

"Your Majesty, the three treasures of Zheng He have returned from overseas countries and brought back countless treasures and the relics of the Buddha. He said he wanted to present them to His Majesty for his viewing, and asked His Majesty to visit the "Yinghua Palace""

"Then let's go and have a look, Master Shao Shi, do you want to go and have a look with me?"

"Your Majesty, there is no need. Daoyan has no interest in yellow and white things. He will say goodbye first. There will be a ritual in Qingshou Temple in the afternoon." The monk in black nodded and retreated.

The scenes are colorful, as if history is right in front of you. Cui Ning looks at them one by one and a hundred years of past events that happened in this old palace city.

According to historical records, Zhenfei was thrown into a well. After Shunzhi's death, the princes of each Beller elected a new emperor. On the last day of the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Chongzhen, Zhu Di moved from the southern capital to the Longdu, including Liu Bowen's establishment of the Longdu... One after another, the past is like a dream.

However, it seems to be performed in a chronological order. It is like a flashback montage movie, including the grand scene of the construction of the Dragon Capital City, the legendary Taoist technique of Liu Ji's establishment of the Dragon Capital City, and the city gates gradually connected into the 49 Gate, the Long Capital City from small to large, and the grand scene of the ministers worshiping each other.

Cui Ning really wanted to see what Zhu Yuanzhang looked like. After all, according to history, Zhu Yuanzhang should have had a strange appearance, but Zhu Yuanzhang's face in modern history and textbooks is really uncommon. It must be that the Qing Dynasty deliberately ugliness the emperors of the previous dynasty.
