In the Wenhua Palace, Chongzhen was looking at the map of Jingxiang and Shaanxi with a frown, sometimes drawing along the map with his fingers, and sometimes holding a red pen to circle a few places, quite a handsome general.

At this moment, Cao Huachun stumbled in, and said with a crying voice: "Emperor, the old slave is sorry for you, something is wrong........

"Xiangyang lost?" When Chongzhen heard this, his head buzzed at that time, and he only felt that the world was spinning.

Cao Huachun and Wang Chengen hurriedly stepped forward to help, and Cao Huachun hurriedly said: "Emperor, Xiangyang has not been lost, it is the Yongwei Battalion who mutinied!" ”

"Oh, as long as Xiangyang is not lost." Chongzhen immediately relieved himself when he heard this, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief after drinking a sip of tea handed over by Wang Chengen.

After a while, he suddenly came back to his senses, and was suddenly startled, and exclaimed, "What? The Brave Guard Battalion mutinied? ”

Cao Huachun said with tears in his eyes: "The defenders of Chengtianmen have reported urgently, tens of thousands of troops from the Yongwei battalion have entered Chengtianmen, surrounded the official office of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and even the front of the noon gate is full of heavily armed ironclad soldiers!" ”

"What do they want to do? Do you force the palace for the crown prince? Chongzhen roared, this was the second time he had experienced the feeling of being humiliated, anger, hatred, and horror all came to his heart.

Chongzhen suddenly fell into a state of helplessness and powerlessness, shocked, angry and worried, and was shocked that he did not expect that this rebel son had such a high prestige in the army, and the Yongwei battalion, which was the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, actually mutinied for him.

He thought of what happened seven years ago, the same Beijing city, the same person humiliated him once, after Yuan Chonghuan was arrested, his subordinate Zu Dashou led the Liao army away, regardless of the Beijing city surrounded by Huang Taiji.

"What about the rebels? Can't wait to get on top? Chongzhen hated and hated, feeling that he had raised a white-eyed wolf for so many years!

Wang Chengen reminded in a low voice: "Emperor, Your Royal Highness is still grounded in Zhongcui Palace and has not left the palace......

"The prince is still in the palace?" Chongzhen's original restless heart was stunned for a moment, and then slowly calmed down.

In the palatial palace, the young emperor was restless, pacing back and forth in the hall, and after a long time, he slowly said, "Call the prince over." ”

In Zhongcui Palace, Zhu Cihong received Li Tingbiao's flying pigeon handbook, which is a special contact method used in response to special circumstances.

Zhu Cihong knew that something big had happened when he saw Li Tingbiao's flying pigeon message, and when he opened the note, the whole person was shocked, and he said angrily: "This brainless Huang Degong, you are in a hurry!" ”

Mutiny, although it is not uncommon in Daming, but it is just a big soldier who makes trouble in the local area, and it is generally directly dealt with and suppressed from above, and tens of thousands of people in the Yongwei battalion mutiny in Beijing, this thing is not easy to suppress.

Zhu Cihong would not be stupid enough to think that Huang Degong and Sun Yingyuan would come to the palace to force him, the crown prince, to add to the yellow robe and forcibly ascend the throne, that would be too.

Not to mention that the two sides are not angry, and there is no hint before, even if they have this heart, Zhu Cihong can't usurp the throne now, forcing the palace to usurp the throne in the current situation of Daming is tantamount to pushing Daming into the abyss and burning himself.

Zhu Cihong is not a stunned young man who has just passed through a few days, he was born and raised in Daming for a few years, and he has a clear understanding of this environment, and feudal etiquette is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which is far more terrifying than imagined.

Even if you force the palace to be the emperor now, what if you can control the Beijing Division and kill all the disobedient officials in the Beijing Division? Can the local officials, gentry, and army recognize him, the unfilial emperor who usurped the throne?

Not to mention that Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong can wake up with a smile in their dreams, I am afraid that the warlords who support their own troops will learn from Cao Cao and lead their troops into Beijing in the name of King Qin........

In the last years of a dynasty, if someone in the court usurped the throne, it was something that many feudal officials were willing to see, even if they were not clear, they would put the decree of the court like toilet paper, and continue to support the army and respect themselves, in order to seek the general trend.

After all, if you have strength, everyone wants to learn from Li Yuan and Zhao Kuangyin, there are many successful things in history to seek the dynasty and usurp the throne, Wang Mang, Cao Cao (Cao Pi), Sima Yi (Sima Yan), Gao Huan (Gao Yang), Yuwentai (Yuwenjue), Xiao Daocheng, Chen Baxian, Yang Jian, Li Yuan, Zhao Kuangyin, etc.

If Zhu Cihong has an army of 100,000 like the Yongwei Battalion in his hands, he can still gamble and rely on the army to forcibly rule, and whoever does not accept it will be beaten until he is served.

The Yongwei battalion is now 20,000 people, and it can only be suppressed in a corner, and it can't be suppressed at all when it is pulled out, the troops are too small, and there are not many gentry behind them.

What Zhu Cihong has to do now is how to keep the Yongwei Battalion, protect Huang Degong and Sun Yingyuan, if not, he can only stand on the side of the Yongwei Battalion, turn him upside down, and kill him personally.

Following the eunuch who delivered the decree to the Wenhua Palace, Zhu Cihong thought about how to deal with the next thing all the way.

As soon as he entered the Wenhua Palace, he was just about to salute, only to hear Chongzhen pointing at him and saying angrily: "Rebel, are you trying to force the palace?" ”

"What does Father mean by this?" Zhu Cihong pretended not to know and asked innocently.

Chongzhen has been staring at his expression since Zhu Cihong came in, but after observing with his discerning eyes for a long time, Zhu Cihong's face was only innocent and surprised, and nothing else was found.

"Your Yongwei battalion gathered in front of the Chengtian Gate and the Noon Gate, and also surrounded the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and even Tang Shiji in the Seven Qings was put into a coffin, isn't this to force the palace?" Chongzhen said coldly, still angry in his words.

Zhu Cihong's face seemed to have written a big question mark: "Forcing the palace? Has the Brave Guard Battalion ever attacked the Forbidden City? ”

Seeing that Chongzhen was silent, Cao Huachun said, "No." ”

Zhu Cihong snorted lightly and said: "Then why do you force the palace to say it directly, and besides, Erchen only has the right to command troops and has no right to transfer troops, and he is grounded in Zhongcui Palace, how can he order the Yongwei battalion?" ”

Chongzhen felt right when he heard it, maybe this matter really has nothing to do with the prince? What is the mutiny of the Brave Guard Battalion?

Zhu Cihong raised this core question: "There is a reason for the army to mutiny, why did the Yongwei battalion mutiny?" Also surrounded the Metropolitan Procuratorate? ”

Cao Huachun, who has always been assisted by gods, said: "Maybe it's because Tang Shiji and other imperial historians said above the main hall that they would erase the merits of the soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion........"

Zhu Cihong nodded, sighed, showed an extremely sad look, and said: "The soldier is glorified by his military merits, Tang Shiji is talking nonsense in the palace, and the son pretended to kill him that day, just to ask him to shut up and protect him, so that he will not let the trouble come out of his mouth, but I didn't expect it to happen, hey, it's all my ........"

Chongzhen and Wang Chengen both looked at Zhu Cihong in surprise, it didn't seem like this that day, you kid chased people to Jinshui Bridge, if it wasn't for Jinyiwei to stop him, it is estimated that he could chase out of the noon gate and kill to Qipan Street, this is the so-called protection??

Regardless of whether Zhu Cihong was acting or not, Chongzhen gritted his teeth and said: "This Tang Shiji is really not a thing!" ”

Zhu Cihong said seriously: "Father, you give an order to let the Yongwei battalion return to the camp, and the son will personally go to deliver the decree!" ”

You're going to preach the message? What if you kid turns around and brings in the Yongwei Battalion and comes in with a yellow robe? Chongzhen said that it was impossible for Zhu Cihong, a kid, to leave the palace and join the Yongwei camp.

Cao Huachun suggested: "Why don't you go to the noon gate with Your Royal Highness?" With the two of you here, I believe that the Yongwei Battalion will not be able to turn the sky upside down. ”

Chongzhen nodded, he also wanted to go and see it in person, and by the way, to understand the situation, why did the Yongwei battalion he carefully built mutiny?
