After the Jin Yiwei kicked open the palace door, Zhou Shixian immediately rushed in. His heart was beating wildly, fearing that he would be late due to this delay.

This is the most difficult part of "robbery the palace".

It would not have worked earlier. At that time, there were still defensive forces in the Forbidden City, and Zhou Shixian brought more than a hundred people. In this case, a strong attack was absolutely impossible, and it would also expose the fact that he had no imperial decree;

If it was too late, Chongzhen might have already beheaded his wife, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law. By then, I'm afraid he would have left irreparable regrets.

When he rushed to the front gate of the palace with his royal guards, he saw a eunuch guarding outside the palace. When he saw someone intruding, he not only did not run away, but seemed to block it.

Zhou Shixian recognized that it was Wang Chengen, but he had no time to explain to the other party. He directly kicked Wang Chengen away who was about to stop him, and then kicked open the palace door.

The door of the palace was kicked open with a "bang". Chongzhen, who was wearing a dragon robe, had raised the sword high in his hand. The strong wind roared in, and the white mantle on the palace bulged high and flew in the wind.

The hair on the heads of Queen Zhou, Princess Kunxing, and little Princess Zhaoren and the ribbons on their dresses were all fluttering in the wind, like gods.

Princess Kunxing raised her head and looked at the blood-stained sword held high in Emperor Chongzhen's hand. Her beautiful face was full of fear, despair, unwillingness and stubbornness.

This is the first time Zhou Shixian has seen the rumored Princess Kunxing. She is unparalleled in spirit, wisdom, and beauty. She really deserves her reputation.

The slightly raised faces of Princess Kunxing and Empress Zhou were both stunningly beautiful, but what didn't make sense at all was that their beautiful eyes reflected the ferocious bloody sword in Emperor Chongzhen's hand.

Seeing this, Zhou Shixian immediately flew out the Xiuchun knife he was holding tightly in his hand. The moment the bloody sword was about to hit Queen Zhou's head, the two swords intersected with a "clang" sound, and Emperor Chongzhen felt force in his hand.

, the sword tilted outward, and it came out directly from the hand, and it was thrust into the ground, and a few sparks were splashed.

And the Xiuchun knife that flew out suddenly turned due to the force, and inserted into a large red pillar in the hall with a "dong" sound.

Queen Zhou had lived in the palace for more than ten years, and she had never seen such a scene. She was already very weak due to the grief of dying, but she was just holding on to her last breath and pretending to be strong.

At this moment, he narrowly escaped death. He was suddenly frightened, his heart tightened, his blood rushed, he felt dizzy, and almost fainted.

Princess Kunxing, who was standing behind her, was strong. Under such circumstances, she only instinctively shrank slightly. When she saw Queen Zhou falling, she quickly supported her from behind.

Emperor Chongzhen, who didn't know what happened yet, turned around in shock and looked at Zhou Shixian who broke into the palace. However, he couldn't help but feel startled. He opened his mouth wide and stared closely at this young man who was wearing armor and seemed familiar.

On the general.

Zhou Shixian immediately bowed, cupped his hands and made a military salute to Emperor Chongzhen:

"Your Majesty, the intruders have broken through the city and are on their way to the Forbidden City. Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief Prince Consort and Hundreds of Imperial Guards, Zhou Shixian, are here to escort you. However, because you are wearing armor, you cannot perform a full salute. Your Majesty, please move quickly!"

"Ah...this..." Emperor Chongzhen saw dozens of armored guards half-kneeling in the palace. Seventeen years of Qi-nurturing skills had also been broken at this time, and he hesitated for a moment.

I am speechless.

Zhou Shixian knew that Emperor Chongzhen must be very confused now, but the bandit army was about to attack the Forbidden City, and they had to leave immediately without any delay.

He had already sent more than 30 cavalry to explore the way to the south of the capital. Although that area was not the main attack direction of Li Zicheng's army, it was also surrounded by troops and horses besieging the city. Sentries had to be sent out in advance to inquire about the military situation.

In addition, Zhou Shixian also had people scatter money all over many key streets leading to the south of the city. At this time, it had caused rout of troops in the city and looting by the people, which greatly hindered the movement of the Shun army.

After all, even the Shun army joined in the robbery and clashed with the Ming army that was about to surrender.

"Your Majesty, the rebels are coming soon. Please don't hesitate any longer. I have prepared a sedan chair and are escorted by three hundred fully armed and loyal soldiers." Seeing this, Zhou Shixian advised again.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen was slightly startled, but he immediately reacted and regained the majesty of a king:

"Okay, I'm sure, the matter is urgent, and Shixian will have full authority to handle the matter of moving out of the palace and heading south."

At this time, how could Emperor Chongzhen not understand that the consort in front of him had been prepared, otherwise there would not have been so many royal guards coming to protect him.

If this is the case, the other party must have a comprehensive and careful plan. In fact, for Chongzhen now, no matter whether the plan is careful or not, reliable or not, he has to give it a try.

Moreover, being able to organize a team of several hundred people without anyone noticing at such a time, Zhou Shixian's ability cannot be underestimated, at least it is not ordinary.

Therefore, the title in Emperor Chongzhen's mouth directly changed to the affectionate "Shixian", simply because he placed his hope on this last straw.

"I accept the order!" Zhou Shi read Emperor Chongzhen's command and immediately ordered several guards in royal robes to step forward and protect Emperor Chongzhen from going out. At this time, Wang Chengen had also gotten up from the ground, and together with Princess Kunxing, supported him

Queen Zhou, who was half-conscious, walked out together.

Princess Kunxing had calmed down at this time. While she and Wang Chengen were supporting Queen Zhou, and holding Xiao Zhaoren with the other hand, she had already secretly glanced at Zhou Shixian, who was wearing armor.

She originally thought she was going to die for her country tonight. Although she was extremely reluctant, as a princess of a country, she had to do this when her country was ruined and her family was in ruins. This was the integrity a princess should have!

Therefore, when she saw her husband suddenly rushing into the palace, and flying a knife handsomely, saving her mother and herself, what a surprise was in her heart!

At this time, the two of them passed by each other and their eyes met. Princess Kunxing's face turned red, and the joy in her heart was indescribable.

"Did he come specifically for me?" Even though he is as valuable as a princess, for a fifteen-year-old girl, there is nothing else in her mind at this time: "The queen mother is right, he is born with sincerity.

Handsome..."
