Sun Zhixian paid homage again and called him the Holy One.
Chongzhen smiled and asked: "Sun Zhixian, when I heard that Jiannu had just entered the city, you couldn't wait to shave yourself into a money rat tail hairstyle? You still wanted to stand in the middle of Jiannu when you went to court the next day.
, but he was kicked to pieces by Azig, is this happening?"
"There is such a thing." Sun Zhixian did not deny it.
But the conversation changed and he added: "However, the reason why I shaved my hair like a money rat tail is not because I am afraid of life, nor is I bending my knees to serve the barbarians. It is actually to preserve the vitality and the foundation of the country for my Ming Dynasty."
"Are you doing this to preserve the vitality of the Ming Dynasty? Preserve the foundation of the country?" Chongzhen almost suspected that he was hearing hallucinations. It was rare to be able to confuse right and wrong to this extent.
"What I did was to preserve the vitality of the Ming Dynasty." Sun Zhixian went on to say eloquently, "Everyone knows that Jiannu is cruel and cruel. The first thing that Jiannu did after entering the customs was to force me, the Ming Dynasty.
Hundreds of billions of people shave their hair and change clothes. If I, the people of the Ming Dynasty, refuse to shave their hair and change clothes, they will be killed immediately."
"So, you want to take the lead?" Chongzhen asked.
"Yes, I want to take the lead." Sun Zhixian said, "Because I understand a truth. As long as a person is alive, he has a chance to take revenge, but if he dies, everything will stop."
After a pause, he said with a smile: "No, I and the people of Beizhi really welcomed the Holy One back. But if I hadn't taken the lead in shaving my hair and changing clothes, Beizhi would have been slaughtered into a barren land. Even if the Holy
If we take the king's army to fight back to the capital, we can only regain a piece of ruins."
Chongzhen said: "It's not easy for you to bear the infamy for Ming Dynasty."
Sun Zhixian straightened his face and said: "For the sake of the great Ming Dynasty, why should I hesitate to ruin my reputation personally?"
Hearing this, Zheng Sen, who was accompanying him, couldn't listen anymore. He stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this student really can't bear it anymore. Can you please show me your kindness?"
Chongzhen asked: "Zheng Sen, what do you want to do?"
Zheng Sen pointed at Sun Zhixian and said, "The student wants to beat this scorpion."
"Hey, you, Zheng Sen, are human, how can you behave like an animal?" Chongzhen said to Zheng Sen, but his eyes were fixed on Sun Zhixian, and Sun Zhixian's expression immediately froze.
Zheng Sen smiled and said: "So it's student Meng Lang."
Chongzhen walked up to Gong Dingzi again and said with a smile: "Gong Dingzi."
Finally, there was someone who had some dignity, and he said: "The guilty minister Gong Dingzhi comes to see the Holy One."
"It's rare that someone finally knows that he is a criminal." Chongzhen smiled and said, "I heard that after Jiannu came to Beijing, you went to Dorgon's house to ask for an official, but Dorgon called you a Ming Dynasty official.
A sinner, a thief and censor, this person should just sit down and sit quietly, why bother talking about others?"
Gong Dingzi's handsome face instantly swelled into the color of pig liver.
Smiling, Chongzhen added: "Also, in order to exonerate yourself, you were really willing to give up all your concubines to Meng Xueli."
"Pfft." Meng Xueli, who was following Chongzhen, had already fallen to his knees.
"Your Majesty, student Hutu." Meng Xueli kowtowed repeatedly as if he was pounding garlic, "The student was obsessed for a moment, and he just accepted Gong Dingzi's elegant bribe. The student turned around and sent Gu Mei away."
"Gu Mei." Chongzhen said with a smile, "She seems to be one of the famous prostitutes in Qinhuai River, right?"
Meng Xueli immediately understood: "The student understands, and the student will send her to the palace when he turns around..."
"Meng Xueli, do you think I'm competing with you for women?" Chongzhen turned around fiercely, his gaze like a knife piercing Meng Xueli's eyes.
Meng Xueli felt as if he had fallen through the ice in an instant.
Chongzhen turned around and shouted: "Arrest them all and put them in jail to await trial!"
"Yes!" The New Army soldiers behind Chongzhen agreed loudly, and then rushed forward to arrest him.
Zhang Jinyan, Wang Aoyong, Sun Zhixian and other ministers immediately began to scream loudly.
"Your Majesty, I have been wronged, I have been wronged, but my loyalty can be revealed to the sun and the moon, it can be revealed to the sun and the moon!"
"Your Majesty, I really want to preserve the foundation of the country for the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty, you cannot treat a national scholar like this who is willing to destroy his reputation for the sake of the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty, I am not guilty, I am indeed not guilty!"
"Your Majesty, I am a meritorious minister. You cannot treat a meritorious minister like this!"
But it was useless no matter how loud they shouted. The New Army soldiers simply ignored them.
"Let's go." Chongzhen turned his horse aside and said, "I will camp at the Asahi Temple today."
Gao Qiqian rode up to catch up with Chongzhen, and asked in astonishment: "Long live Lord, this is already at your doorstep, why don't you just move back to the Forbidden City?"
"I won't go." Chongzhen shook his head and said, "There are both bandits and slaves. That place is too unlucky."
Gao Qian stood up and said: "If Long live the Lord thinks it's unlucky, I can just take some people to sweep it carefully. But since they have returned to the capital, there is no reason to live outside the city."
"Gao Banban." Chongzhen said coldly, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"Long live my Lord, that's not what I meant." Gao Qiqian was so frightened that he shook his hands.
"I'm sorry you don't dare to have such delusions." Chongzhen snorted lightly and rode away.
Gao Qiqian wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said to himself that it was really dangerous just now, but he still had to find a way to restore his reliable image in the eyes of Long Live Lord.
At that moment, Gao Qiqian rode up to catch up with Chongzhen and said, "Long live Lord, that Gu Hengbo..."
Chongzhen reined in the horse and when he looked back at Gao Qiqian again, his eyes had turned cold, three points colder than before.
"Long live the Lord?"
Gao Qiqian was so frightened that he didn't know what to do. Did he say it wrong again?
Chongzhen said angrily: "Gao Banban, is there something wrong with you?"
"Earlier on the Chahar Grassland, you found an ugly Mongolian woman for me. Later, when you passed through Yangzhou, you took it upon yourself to find two thin horses for me. Now you want to find a famous Qinhuai prostitute for me. Are you
Aren't you going to feel uncomfortable if you don't arrange a woman for me for a day? What the hell."
"Long live my lord, I don't think this old slave thinks it's hard for you to work hard on military affairs every day without a concubine to serve you. That's why, that's why..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Then you can't put all kinds of women around me?"
Gao Qiqian said Weiwei naolai, but in his heart he said, wasn't Concubine Li also born as a prostitute in Qinhuai, and Concubine Ran was a widow of a chieftain, and their backgrounds were no better than Gu Mei's, right?
"Are you talking about Li Xiangjun and Ran Sanniang?"
Chongzhen said angrily: "They are different."
Li Xiangjun was a complete accident. At that time, he was a long-term man, and normal men would not be able to endure it.
Moreover, Li Xiangjun was indeed a one-in-a-million beauty. In addition, Li Xiangjun performed well in the Battle of Xuzhou. Chongzhen was so excited that he couldn't control it for a while, and later he could only make mistakes.
As for the widow Ran Sanniang, Chongzhen admitted that he was indeed greedy for her body.
However, Naran Sanniang also had another consideration as a concubine, which was to win over the indigenous people in the southwestern provinces, which would have an immeasurable impact on the stability of the southwest.
To put it bluntly, this is also a political marriage.
However, Chongzhen did not need to talk to Gao Qiqian about these words.
After a pause, he added: "Anyway, don't make any blind arrangements in the future."
"Old slave, I obey the order." Gao Qiqian really had a long memory now.
But what Gao Qianqi didn't know was that there was actually a woman in Beijing that Chongzhen coveted. Bu Mu Butai had run away, but Fan Wencheng's concubine was still there.
…
Fan Wencheng's Mansion.
"Xin'er Xin'er, my Xin'er."
Looking at the beautiful concubine in front of him, Fan Wencheng burst into tears.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" The concubine put her arms around Fan Wencheng's neck and said with a charming look, "Although the Qing Dynasty is dead, with your ability, master, you can still hold an official position in the Ming Dynasty.
, our family can live without worries about food and clothing in Beijing."
Fan Wencheng smiled bitterly, thinking it couldn't be that easy.
Your master and I have done many evil things for the Qing Dynasty.
No matter how benevolent Chongzhen was, he would never forgive.
To put it bluntly, Chongzhen couldn't spare him even if he wanted to.
Because this involves the debate between Han and slaves and the difference between Hua and Yi.
"Xin'er, Master, I really can't let you go."
"Master, you want to give me away?" The concubine's face changed.
"Xin'er, you also know that Chongzhen is as good as Cao Mengde."
"Master, in order to exonerate yourself, you actually want to give me to Chongzhen?"
"Send you to Chongzhen? Master, how can I give it up?" Fan Wencheng shook his head and said, "Chongzhen doesn't deserve it either. He doesn't deserve to have such a good woman like you."
Hearing this, the concubine suddenly understood everything.
"Master, do you think you want to kill me?" The concubine slowly backed away.
Fan Wencheng took out a sharp dagger from his sleeve and said with a painful expression: "Xin'er, don't blame me. I'm doing this for your own good. If you are such a beautiful woman, leaving you alone in this world will only make you miserable."
You have experienced all the sufferings in the world, so you should go with me."
As he spoke, Fan Wencheng raised his knife and pounced on him.
Although the concubine wanted to run, she couldn't run fast because her feet were bound.
The concubine was quickly caught, and Fan Wencheng stabbed her through the heart with just one knife.
After stabbing his concubine to death, Fan Wencheng turned the knife around and pressed it against his heart. He gestured several times but still didn't have the guts to stab her. He was frightened.
Fan Wencheng was making gestures when footsteps suddenly sounded outside.
Then the second son Fan Chengmo rushed in and was shocked when he saw what happened.
"Father!" Fan Chengmo rushed up and grabbed the dagger from Fan Wencheng's hand, and continued to persuade, "It's not like this, it's definitely not like this."
Fan Wencheng sighed and asked dejectedly: "Has Chongzhen entered the city by now?"
"No, Chongzhen did not enter the city. He just went to the Chaoyang Gate to mock Zhang Jinyan, Wang Aoyong, and Sun Zhixie, and then led his army to station at the Chaori Temple." Fan Chengmo said, "But the Ming army has already controlled both the inside and outside.
City, all the more than 200,000 Manchus living in the inner city have been arrested."
After a pause, Fan Chengmo persuaded again: "Father, my son feels that Chongzhen looks like a wise king, and he is also a wise king that is rare in the history. As long as he has heard of his father's virtuous name, he will definitely be merciful to you, so you
There is no need to feel anxious or uneasy about doing things for the Jiannu slaves."
