Chapter 328 Isn't it beautiful for national security and folk music?
After Li Zicheng and Liu Zongmin killed the king, he still needed to clean up the scene.
Those eunuchs and Jin Yiwei, of course, are useless, and they can only be planted if they are killed.Therefore, both Wang Chengen and Luo Yangxing had to fight with weapons until the last moment, until they were killed.

Wang Chengen was fine, he had died with Chongzhen in history, seeing the emperor being killed at this moment, he was also wielding a saber with a lot of backbone, and rushed towards Liu Zongmin like a mad tiger: "You dog thief! How dare you! Regicide! Your nine clans will all die!"

Seeing him attacking, the soldiers from the Chuangjun army shot at him with random arrows. Wang Chengen was hit by arrows several times, and blood sprayed from his mouth. He still rushed forward two steps, but was exhausted. With his forehead smashed, he looked as dead as his master.

Wang Chengen didn't kill anyone like this, so he gave it away for nothing.

Historically, Luo Yangxing surrendered to Li Zicheng, and was severely tortured and paid. Later, he paid 3 taels of silver before he was temporarily exonerated from the death penalty. He was locked up in prison. Later, Dorgon broke into Beijing and released him. He immediately voted for the Tartars.

But in this life, he saw something he shouldn't have seen, so of course he had no chance to surrender, and was forced to be a loyal man, fighting to the death.

Hundreds of people were quickly killed, leaving only a few royal relatives.

The soldiers under Liu Zongmin found Prince Zhu Cihong in the carriage, and after confirming his identity, they did not dare to act immediately.

Li Zicheng was overjoyed when he heard that the prince was also taken away. Although he killed Chongzhen, he still hoped that the prince was a cowardly and ignorant child who could use his life as a bait to force the prince to submit. The territory in Beizhili allowed other Ming troops to surrender.

Because Chongzhen was killed in front of Zhu Cihuang, Li Zicheng didn't expect to open his eyes and tell lies, so he directly used threats: "You child, you know why your family is guilty of the sky, so you lost the world!"

Zhu Cihong had been frightened just now and was a little bit dumbfounded. After a sudden change of life and death, how much concentration can a 15-year-old boy have?
But after all, he has been a prince for many years, and he still has some bones, and he probably won't survive now, so he retorted indifferently: "How do you know Gu! A kingslayer, why don't you kill Gu! Today is nothing more than death, how can Gu be so queer!"

Li Zicheng was a little uncomfortable with being choked up like this, but he quickly came to his senses.

Over the years, among the officials of the Ming Dynasty who were captured by him, there were many who swore to the death.It is obvious that he has an absolute advantage in force, but the opponent just refuses to accept him.

So he didn't get too angry, but just sneered and said, "It seems that you are not afraid of death like your father? You want to be alone? You are innocent. If you are willing to surrender, I will spare your life!"

Zhu Cihong turned his head away, but kept silent, with a sad expression, and tears streaming down uncontrollably.

Li Zicheng was a little impatient, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times. Those who knew him well knew that he had murderous intentions.

Other military generals like Liu Zongmin didn't understand politics at all, and didn't care about orthodoxy. Even if they knew Li Zicheng and his mentality, they just laughed and watched the fun, hoping that Li Zicheng would order to chop up the prince together.

However, Song Xiance had read some books and knew the power of orthodoxy, so he quickly took the opportunity to hold Li Zicheng and whispered: "Your Majesty, don't get angry! Why bother with a child! I have my own way to make him subdue .”

Li Zicheng still trusted Song Xiance, so he nodded: "Go and try!"

So, Zhu Cihong soon saw Li Zicheng approached by a half-literate man with a deer head, mouse eyes, sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and the temperament of a fortune teller. He threatened him with a fake smile:
"His Royal Highness, why do you have to be so grandiose? The dead are gone, and we have to think about the living. You rule the world with filial piety. You don't hesitate to die, don't you care about the life and death of your mother and concubines? Don't you care about you?" After the death of the father, what about the reputation of his wives and concubines?"

Song Xiance spoke in a soft voice, but Zhu Cihong was dumbfounded when he uttered these sinister words. The arena was terribly quiet, only the sound of horses spouting and scratching their hooves in the cold winter.

A few seconds later, there was also a scream from the carriage behind Zhu Cihong, followed by a group of women's screams.

"Concubine Yuan Gui killed herself!"

Zhu Cihong became more and more flustered when he heard the noise in the carriages behind him. An oversight, Liu Zongmin quickly held him down and took off his sword.

Zhu Cihong was startled and angry, and scolded Song Xiance: "Beast! You bastard, do you want to blackmail Yu Gu with a woman's fame?"

Song Xiance was also a little dejected. He originally wanted to threaten with words, but he didn't expect that there was a woman in the carriage behind who was so staunch, so he killed one of them directly, which made him lose a bargaining chip: "This...wasn't my original intention, why did this happen? Woolen cloth."

A woman's cry still came from the carriage behind: "Sister, you are so confused! Even if you don't want to offend Your Majesty, what's the use of committing suicide at this critical moment?"

After panicking for a while, a young woman finally stood out from the carriage behind, temporarily wearing a veiled hat, opened the curtain, and offered conditions to Li Zicheng, Song Xiance, and Zhu Cihong in a neither humble nor overbearing way:
"Breaking robbers! I am the widow of Emperor Tianqi and Empress Yi'an! What you want is to hold Hong'er hostage and make him obey your orders. When Wu Sangui King Qin's army arrives, you can take Hong'er to shake Wu Sangui's army! "

It turned out that this woman in her thirties was Zhang Yan, the queen of Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao, who was four years older than Chongzhen.When Chongzhen died, his widowed sister-in-law was only 36 and seven years old, and of course she was still alive.

In history, Zhang Yan, like Queen Zhou, hanged herself before the Forbidden City was destroyed. In this life, Chongzhen did not give up the idea of ​​escape, so naturally he would not kill his wife and sister-in-law first, so he fled with him and fell to this point.

Song Xiance was a little ashamed when he heard that the beautiful woman ruined his plan, and said in his heart: "I never thought that around Chongzhen, this kind of woman would be so calm and knowledgeable. The empress and the prince are all panicked."

He had no choice but to agree first, admitting that Zhang Yan had seen through his plot.

Zhang Yan also snorted coldly, and continued to negotiate terms with them: "You rebels, you will die a bad life in the end! But if you succeed today, even if you want to come, I can't escape your palm.

Bengong has a word, if you are willing to agree, I will persuade Lang'er to condescend to follow you and wait for a while!Otherwise, I, the royal relatives of the Ming Dynasty, and the blood of the Tian family, will only die once! "

Zhang Yan's words were a bit superfluous, and she directly used her own words to determine the life and death of the crown prince and the way of life for a period of time. It has to be said that it was too presumptuous. If it were normal, she would definitely be impeached and punished.

But at this moment, if she dared to say this, she was already dead, and she put her life and death aside, and she couldn't care less about it.

Li Zicheng couldn't help but look awed when he heard this, and Song Xiance was even more awe-inspiring, and he couldn't help but bowed his knees: "Your Majesty has such insight, I just listen with all my ears."

Li Zicheng frowned, and looked at Song Xiance contemptuously, but said nothing.This person has never seen the aura of a person who is naturally noble, and he got used to kneeling for a while.

But who can blame Song Xiance? People who have been in the top position for a long time really have such things as aura.

During the Southern Liang Dynasty, Hou Jing was in chaos, and Hou Jing went to the Taicheng Palace to face Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang.Xiao Yan was already an 86-year-old old man at the time, but he just glanced at Hou Jing, and Hou Jing couldn't help but his legs went limp and his body was dripping with sweat.Obviously Xiao Yan has been the emperor for nearly 50 years, and he himself is the founding emperor, so his aura is extraordinary.

Zhang Yan didn't care about Song Xiance's reaction at all, but just stated her conditions openly: "You and I will allow this palace, Queen Zhou, and other concubines to go to the Tonghui River and throw themselves into the river! No salvage is allowed. Corpse! As long as I wait until the bones are gone, the reputation of the late Emperor and His Majesty will not be damaged, and when the time comes, Lang'er will naturally follow you at your mercy!"

Zhang Yan thought very clearly that it would be useless to kill herself in the carriage like Concubine Yuan Gui, they were all beautiful women, even if they died, would these frenzied beasts let the corpses go?

To use a common saying in later generations, I am afraid that these beasts will take advantage of the heat!

They originally fled from Tongzhou along the Tonghui River. It is impossible to let them leave alive now. The only way to keep the whole body from being humiliated is to throw stones into the river.Jumping into the river, no one else can find the body, and there is no way to humiliate it.

Li Zicheng and Song Xiance pondered for a while, and they also felt that Zhang Yan's words made sense.

Liu Zongmin, who was a reckless man next to him, was a little unhappy, and said with a lewd smile: "Your Majesty, what are you doing with these women? If you want me to say let the brothers have a good time first, when the time comes, they will not want to die before they die." Alright! We have been licking blood for so many years, and we have never tasted the emperor's woman..."

Liu Zongmin is obviously the smartest in the Chuangjun, otherwise he would not have robbed Chen Yuanyuan in history.

Now Chen Yuanyuan is not in the capital at all, and has been housed by Zhu Shuren for four or five years.Liu Zongmin didn't get anything. He only saw that the two empresses of the late emperors were still alive. How could he bear it?

In particular, Chongzhen had just been executed by his stick, and after killing the emperor, he would rape his wife and daughter. This kind of enjoyment, I am afraid that only Genghis Khan can often experience it!

He, Liu Zongmin, wants to have a Genghis Khan addiction today!

Fortunately, Song Xiance must be much calmer than him, so he quickly persuaded Li Zicheng: "General Quan, calm down! Don't spoil the king's great event! Where are you looking for beauties! After the two queens drowned themselves in the river, the maids next to you are still up to you!" Arrangement?"

Liu Zongmin has already drifted away, and scolded with his neck stuck: "You sour person who tells the truth, I will help the king to shoot down the world with swords and arrows! What use is there for you! Chongzhen is dead, so why worry about it?" of!"

Liu Zongmin knew very well that he and Li Zicheng were the only ones in the world who had no way of turning back. If one day the Ming Dynasty really turned their backs and he and Li Zicheng would die, who would let him kill the king himself?And Song Xiance even had a slight chance to surrender.

It is precisely because of his clear understanding of his own risks that Liu Zongmin is now the one with the most timely mentality to enjoy himself. If he is drunk today, even if there is an accident in the future, at least he has enjoyed the emperor's woman before his death, and has tasted this kind of treatment up.

A real man deserves to travel through the world!Enough!
Seeing his old comrade-in-arms drifting like this, Li Zicheng felt slightly unhappy, but he was tolerant and forcibly endured. He also knew in his heart that Liu Zongmin was just a little reckless, but the more he was like this, the more he was tied to himself. A grasshopper on a rope cannot betray itself.

For the generals under his command, the first requirement is loyalty, there is no possibility of betrayal, and other character problems can be tolerated.

Li Zicheng personally accompanied the smiling face, persuading him in a low voice, "Why should Zong Min get angry, Mr. Song also made a contribution to Dashun's decision-making, and now everything is waiting to be done, it's time to unite!
You don't want to see the world is settled, and the robes under your command are still fighting with Wu Sangui to the point of bloodshed. Being able to force Zhu Cihong to cooperate with Gu is very useful to ensure that Wu Sangui is taken down!
Brothers lack women, how can Gu be sympathetic?After returning to Beijing, as long as the concubines left in the Chongzhen Palace did not commit suicide, Gu promises that you will be the first to pick them! "

Li Zicheng personally gave face in this way, and Liu Zongmin's desire to drink now and now drunk can be regarded as a little restrained, and the two sides have reached a tacit understanding.

After a while, Zhang Yan gathered Empress Zhou and others, as well as the body of Concubine Yuan Gui, and Princess Kunxing who had fainted from fright, all into a carriage.They also found a stone to hold each other, and others tied the stone to their belts when they fainted.

He also ordered the personal maid to drive the carriage to the Tonghui River.Then she asked those irrelevant maids to get out of the car and flee for their lives. Some of the maids knelt down and begged, saying that they did not want to be humiliated by the thieves, but would rather die for the Lord.

Zhang Yan was a little moved, so she didn't chase her away, and directly let the court lady who was willing to die for the Lord control the direction of the carriage. Zhang Yan pulled out the dagger that Concubine Yuan Gui used when she killed herself just now, and directly stabbed the sword in the flattery.

The royal steed hissed sadly, galloped in pain and fright, lost the instinct to avoid the river, and rushed directly into the river in a panic.

The officers and soldiers of the Chuangjun tightly sealed the scene, stared at the women who threw themselves into the river, and scanned the river for a few minutes, confirming that there were no living people emerging from the downstream hundreds of feet away, and no dead bodies refloated. The alert is over.

Liu Zongmin still cursed and muttered a few words, secretly cursing that it was a waste of money, so many beautiful beauties were wasted.

Under the guidance of Song Xiance, Li Zicheng turned around to discuss with Zhu Cihuang. Song Xiance helped him and said, "Your Highness, our king has kept his promise and has not damaged the reputation of your father and uncle Ling after his death. You should obediently follow us to see Wu Sangui." .

Otherwise, my king will be furious, no matter how hard we try, we will launch an army and try to fish out the corpses in the river again!Whether the dead body of your father can be buried is in the mind of His Highness! "

Zhu Cihong's eyes almost burst into flames, but there was nothing he could do.The other party threatens him with the innocence of the dead body of the empress mother and whether the emperor father can be buried, can he not cooperate?
That night, Zhu Cihong was brought into Tongzhou County by Li Zicheng, and stayed overnight in Tongzhou to find out the situation.

Li Zicheng would return to Beijing to deal with other important matters. Hundreds of officials in the imperial court were still waiting for him to take over. Chongzhen's body would also be brought back, falsely claiming that he committed suicide and announced it to the world.

Under Li Zicheng's order, Song Xiance revised a letter and sent it to the Shanhaiguan army, telling Wu Sangui who was still on the way:
"The Son of Heaven has committed suicide and died for his country. The Crown Prince has surrendered to me, Dashun. I hope Wu Junmen will take care of himself, return to his old master as soon as possible, surrender with courtesy, and still not lose his title of Marquis. The country is safe and the people are happy, isn't it beautiful?"

I thought I had a cold for five or six days, and it was about to pass. The power of yang should be similar to that of a cold.Who knows that the symptoms of rhinitis and pharyngitis have passed before they have a fever... Don't follow the routine.

In addition, the reason why this chapter ends here... In fact, the last word is gone, only the outline, which can be adjusted.

Let those women throw their bodies into the river and leave their bodies, just to see everyone's opinions. One or several of them will be rescued by Zheng Chenggong and Zhang Mingzhen's reinforcements from Dagukou.Or just drown them all, whatever.

I haven't written it down yet, if you have an idea, gossip under this paragraph, or like the opinions of other people's rumors, and I will count them. (Anyway, even if these women are alive, they have no role to play, just a few words to explain, especially the queens must have no role to play. At most, when discussing who will be the new king, the two queens can say a few words and provide a little legitimacy Opinion)
