Chapter 4 Victory at Risk

"Your Highness King Qin, there must be a misunderstanding here. I will give you an explanation when... I return to the palace." Lin Chong looked at the bright sword in Li Chuang's hand and felt a little frightened, but he still pretended to be upright. Fortunately, the dragon robe was wide.

, covering the pair of trembling legs, Li Chuang and Niu Jinxing exchanged a few words and then told Lin Chong that they were retreating now and hoped that the emperor would make an early decision on the request.

This time Li Chuang didn't speak as politely as before. It seemed that he was frightened by the cannons on the city tower and wanted to retreat quickly. They actually ran out of food and grass. They wanted to attack by force, but they didn't know how the defenders in the city were doing.

In addition, they were afraid of Wu Sangui's Guan Ning cavalry, and now they saw that they dared to use artillery in the city. They mistakenly thought that there must be elite soldiers hidden in the city, so they had to withdraw their troops quickly.

Lin Chong returned to the Jinluan Palace under the protection of the imperial guards. Along the way, he kept asking people who ordered the cannon, but none of the eunuchs and maids around him answered. Until an old minister told Lin Chong that the order was given by Wang Chengen, the palace manager.

.

"Your Majesty, the prince said that there was a decree of long live. After the long live was recorded in the account, he mounted the cannon." After the old minister finished speaking, Lin Chong thought for a moment, Wang Cheng'en, such a familiar name, oh, by the way, he is next to Chongzhen.

The great eunuch, the eunuch who knocked him out today, Lin Chong felt hatred in his heart when he thought of him. Damn it, it was this damn she-monster that made him almost die at the hands of Li Chuang. "Get Wang Chengen for me."

Come here!" Lin Chong said, and the eunuch Wang Chengen walked out from behind the main hall. He walked slowly to the Jinluan Palace, whispered a few words in Lin Chong's ear, and the two returned to the inner palace, while the other ministers also followed

Returned to their respective homes.

The two came to the imperial study room. Wang Chengen looked him up and down a few more times and said with a smile, "I never thought that a fake like you actually looks like an emperor when you put on these clothes. Boy, you did a good job. You actually made the intruder retreat."

Join the army."

"Damn eunuch, have you had enough fun? I don't belong to this era at all. You can't understand even if I tell you. Please call Zhu Youjian. Your Chongzhen should come back and be the emperor. I have to find a way to go back."

Lin Chong was still a little scared when he escaped from the tiger's mouth this time, so he quickly took off his dragon robe and wanted to leave.

"Boy, just because you dared to say that the emperor's name is a major crime to annihilate the nine tribes, but for the sake of your merits, I will not convict you for the time being... You said that you do not belong to this dynasty? This is the first time for our family to hear this

Said..." Before Wang Chengen finished speaking, Lin Chong left the imperial study alone. Along the way, the guards and eunuchs and maids were shocked when they saw the emperor wearing such strange clothes, but they did not dare to speak.

Lin Chong ran for a long time without leaving the Forbidden City. He was panting from exhaustion. He thought for a moment that he had fainted due to falling on the wooden horse before crossing over. Maybe the trick lies in just falling like this. He just needs to fall again, right?

After thinking about it for a while, Lin Chong found a tree and climbed up, closed his eyes and jumped down. Unfortunately, the tree was not high enough. Not only did he not fall unconscious, but his feet were sprained.

Rubbing his feet, Lin Chong made up his mind and climbed up the tree again. This time it was almost five meters high. Okay, I will definitely succeed this time. Come on, Lin Chong used 100% of his strength to jump.

He smashed it down with all his strength, and his head happened to come into close contact with a stone on the ground. Lin Chong's eyes darkened and he fainted...

When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was already lying on the bed, and the person standing in front of him was Wang Chengen. "Boy, you have no control over everything. Everything is fate. If you don't want to be the emperor, you don't have to commit suicide? If the palace maid hadn't found out,

, you are still lying on the ground."

"Only a bastard wants to commit suicide. I want to... How can I tell you? I tell you that I am from a few hundred years later. In my time, the Ming Dynasty was long gone and Chongzhen had already hanged himself.

La, do you believe it?" Lin Chong touched his head, thinking that if he had known he could not go back, he would not have jumped so high, and he had a big bulge.

"You mean that the Ming Dynasty has died. Haha, do you think our family will believe this kind of coaxing of a three-year-old child?" Lin Chong saw that Wang Chengen didn't believe it, and suddenly thought that when he came, he brought a schoolbag with him, and there was a book in it.

For Chinese history textbooks, I quickly asked if I had ever seen a schoolbag.

When Wang Chengen heard this, he asked someone to get something and said that it was found where he met him. Lin Chong pulled out the history book Mingshi and pointed it out to him and said, "Look, this is the history book of my time. It says

It is clear that as soon as King Chuang entered the city, Chongzhen was dead, and then Dorgon entered the pass and the Qing Dynasty became."

Wang Chengen took the book, looked at it, and sweated more and more as he read, and said, "The Ming Dynasty should have perished, so why did the intruders retreat again?"

"Well, it's possible that my arrival disrupted the course of history. This is often said in our time-travel novels and TV shows. It could also be a parallel universe or something..." Lin Chong couldn't explain clearly.

Well, coupled with my hunger, I reached for the pastries on the table and started eating them.

"In this case, you must be sent by God to save the Ming Dynasty. I think you can continue to pretend to be the emperor. You can't say no, otherwise you should also end up." Wang Chengen's words were cold, and he took out the soft tissue from his sleeves as he spoke.

Sword, Lin Chong remembered that this eunuch was still a martial arts master. If he said no on the spot, he would probably be killed.

"Since I can't go back now, why not stay here first? At least the palace is quite stable and the food is good...and there are three palaces and six courtyards..." Lin Chong was thinking wildly. How did he know that Chongzhen was only one in history?

The second concubine was not beautiful either. Chongzhen devoted his whole life to the country and paid little attention to women.

The two talked a lot more, mainly about the affairs of the court, which minister was strong and loyal, and which minister was cunning and colluded with foreign enemies, including who had the most money in his family and who was greedy and lustful. Wang Chengen knew everything. However, Lin Chong asked him where Chongzhen was.

But he said nothing.

"Now that the intruders have retreated, what should we do next?" Wang Chengen asked.

"This is simple. It has been concluded in our time. We must first recruit Wu Sangui and let him deal with Li Zicheng. As for the Manchus, don't worry. They can defend the high city without leaving. Only use artillery to defend the city. You must not

If we send troops to fight, our Han infantry will fight against the Manchu cavalry, just like the Chinese team playing against the German team, seeking death..." As soon as Lin Chong said this, Wang Chengen nodded and then shook his head.

It turns out that Wu Sangui's court had also heard about it. Although his troops were powerful, there were always reports saying that he was colluding with the Manchus. Last month, Jin Yiwei even seized a defense plan sent by Wu Sangui to the Manchus. What else was there in it?

After the victory, the territory would be divided equally, so Chongzhen refused to recruit Wu Sangui to the capital.

"In your era, was Wu Sangui a loyal minister?"

"Loyal minister? Hahaha, he is a big traitor!
