Chapter 267

Three days is enough time for a message to spread widely and deeply within the capital.For such a grand event, almost everyone in the capital is looking forward to it.Especially when the Baigan Army escorted 490 three Jurchen Tartars with many heads in the evening of the second day, it was even more sensational.

"Do you know? Originally, these captives were to be escorted to Yongping to rebuild their homes. But this time the emperor specially decreed that these captives should be used to pay homage to the loyal martyrs of the Ming Dynasty!" A well-informed person loudly said the news he had heard, Suddenly attracted a lot of people.

Liu Laosan was also one of these people, and he confirmed in surprise: "Is it true? In this case, those Ming loyalists have knowledge in the spring, and they can be regarded as smiling. There are so many Jurchen Tartars in 490!"

"If it weren't for some deaths on the way, they would all be in their early [-]s!" The well-informed person sneered, and then broke the news.

An older old man shook his head and said with emotion: "It's really rare! As far as the Jurchen Tartars are concerned, it seems that the former Mao Shuai gave some. In my impression, there are no others!"

In the past, Mao was a rebel and a sinner. Even if he sympathized with Mao Wenlong's people, he dared not discuss it publicly.But at this time, the court's intention to vindicate Mao Wenlong has also been made public, and these common people discussed it openly without any scruples.Even because they hated Yuan Chonghuan, they sympathized with Mao Wenlong more by the way.

When the others heard this, they all recalled the past and couldn't help but sigh.

When Liu Laosan saw this, he raised the topic and said, "I haven't heard of any big battles these days! How did these Jurchen Tartars get captured by the white-armed army? They were still captured alive. This is a great achievement!"

"As soon as you said this, I couldn't help but get angry!" The well-informed person immediately said angrily, "These Jurchen Tartars came outside Zhangjiakou and Shanxi merchants to urge food and supplies, but they don't know who The damn Jin merchants have already been exterminated by the emperor, and the white pole army pretended to be Jin merchants, so they can catch so many Jurchen tartars at once!"

Hearing this, these people immediately became furious, and couldn't help scolding those dead Shanxi merchants one after another, bringing out the eighteen generations of ancestors of those Shanxi merchants and discussing them again.

After a while, it seemed that the scolding was comfortable, and the well-informed person said: "According to unreliable rumors, the Baigan Army has made such great achievements, and the only female general of our Ming Dynasty will be knighted!"

"Wow, so powerful!" Liu Laosan couldn't help but be surprised when he heard that, she was just a woman, but she was awarded a knighthood for her military exploits, which really shamed many generals of the Ming Dynasty.

Others were also emotional, or the news here was explosive, many people gathered around one after another, more and more gathered, and then the last few news were mentioned repeatedly and spread rapidly.

Time flies, the day of the ceremony is approaching, and the curfew has just ended in the early hours of the morning.The people in the capital rushed out of their homes one after another, as if they had been waiting at home for a long time, waiting for the curfew to end, and couldn't wait to go out.

If you look from the sky above the capital, countless human heads suddenly emerge from the houses, converging into countless streams in the streets and alleys, and then converging into rivers, swarming into Fengtianmen Square.

Such a scale was unexpected by the government, so that they did not send soldiers to maintain order immediately.But fortunately, almost all the people did not lose order due to the large number of people, collided, fought or even rioted.

Everyone's faces were solemn and calm, as if they were participating in a very important event for them.Or, on a pilgrimage!

It didn't take long for Fengtianmen Square to be full of human heads.Those who arrived later stood guard on both sides of the street leading to Fengtianmen Square from the Ministry of War.Because they knew that the tokens of the ashes of the loyalists of the Ming Dynasty would be sent from the Ministry of War to the Hall of Loyalty of the Ming Dynasty.

Before the ceremony started, the people in the square looked at the Great Ming Loyalty Hall one after another.They were very curious about this magnificent palace built with the cement specially invented by the emperor.

The first impression they had of this Great Ming Loyalty Hall was grandeur, grandeur, novelty, and solemnity.After letting them see it, they couldn't help but feel that this Daming Loyalty Hall is the best hall in Daming besides the imperial palace.

At this moment, the troops of Wucheng Bingmasi finally arrived, and the leader of Qianhu was sweating, but seeing that the square was in order, he couldn't help wiping off his sweat, and hurriedly asked his men to stand guard.

Not long after, Jinyi's pro-army came out from Fengtian Gate and deployed around Zhonglie Hall.The people who were watching knew that the grand ceremony was about to begin.Immediately, everyone became excited, wondering what this grand ceremony would look like!

They waited for a while, only to see many people came out of Fengtianmen.Taking a closer look, these people in the capital found that it was Wen Tiren, the chief assistant, who led the two rows of civil and military officials to the left and right.

Every official is dressed in formal court clothes, which looks very solemn.Their faces are also very solemn, even if they have other thoughts in their hearts, they must be solemn in front of the public.In this way, the solemn atmosphere in Fengtianmen Square was immediately raised to a higher level.

Suddenly, on the upper floor of the city gate, three empty cannons sounded "boom boom boom", and then a very high-pitched loud voice sounded: "The emperor is here!"

Immediately, the first assistant Wen Tiren led all the civil and military officials to face Fengtianmen and bow to welcome the holy driver.The people watching the ceremony in the square knelt down one after another to greet them.

The royal road guarded by Jinyi's pro-army is not a straight line from Fengtian Gate to the entrance of Zhonglie Hall, but an arc around it.

Regarding this, Wen Tiren and the officials of the Ministry of Rites at that time believed that it should be a straight line, and the emperor is the son of heaven, so there is no need to go out to greet him, and it is enough for the first assistant to come forward.However, none of them thought that Emperor Chongzhen was so persistent that they had no choice but to do so in the end.

Under much anticipation, Emperor Chongzhen appeared.This time, he did not wear a golden helmet and armor, nor did he ride a horse, but appeared according to formal etiquette.But it didn't block it. Rolling up the curtain allowed him to see the outside, and also allowed the outside to see him.

As soon as Emperor Chongzhen came out of Fengtian Gate, he began to hear the continuous "ding ding" prompt sound from the system. You can see numbers such as 12345, which are beating like a stopwatch.

Emperor Chongzhen was still satisfied with the growth rate of achievement value.He thought in his heart, isn't it just 20 achievement value, it will be there soon!
Before and after Yujia came to the Daming Zhonglie Hall, Emperor Chongzhen stood on the side of the platform where a vertical pole was located, facing all the civil and military officials, and solemnly announced the start of the grand ceremony.
