Zhu Di, the king of Yan, saw that he couldn't dodge, and shouted: "My life is over." ”

Zheng He, who was behind him, saw that the situation was urgent, and as soon as he urged the war horse to block in front of him, the man's dagger stabbed Zheng He in the chest.

Fortunately, Zheng He was wearing soft armor, so the knife could not pierce in, but only a stabbing pain in his chest. Zheng He fixed his eyes on this assassin was Zhang Shixing, he endured the pain, struck out with a palm, and hit Zhang Shixing in the stomach, Zhang Shixing was in the air, there was no way to avoid it, and was hit by Zheng He's palm, he flew out upside down and fell to the ground.

King Yan's guards immediately surrounded him, Zhang Shixing spit out a mouthful of blood, took a deep breath, turned over and jumped up, and fought with everyone in one place, he used his life's learning, rushed left and right, and stabbed more than ten Yan soldiers to death.

Zhang Shixing was originally ordered to go to the arsenal to receive 100,000 arrows, but suddenly the old Jinyiwei brothers came to report, saying that Li Jinglong had opened the Jinchuan Gate, but he didn't know what he meant.

Zhang Shixing was taken aback when he heard this, and hurried back, but saw that the Yan army had already entered the city, so he pretended to be a Yulin sergeant, blended into the crowd, pretended to welcome the Yan King into the city, and waited for the opportunity to assassinate.

Rao is so, the Yan army is still more and more surrounded, seeing that he can't fight out of the encirclement, suddenly there was a big chaos behind the Yan army, and a tiger general brought a group of family members to kill him, only to see that he was eight feet tall, his face was like a crown of jade, and his heroic appearance was extraordinary, it was Xu Huizu, the Duke of Wei.

Xu Huizu jumped off the horse, ordered Zhang Shixing to get on the horse and walk quickly, and said, "You go back to the palace to protect the emperor." ”

Zhang Shixing hurriedly said: "Wei Guogong, what should you do?" ”

Xu Huizu pushed him and said, "Don't worry about me, you go quickly." ”

Zhang Shixing hurriedly jumped on his horse and rushed towards the imperial city.

Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Gaoyang County, saw that Xu Huizu had come to block the army from entering the city again, and urged him to step forward, and scolded with his halberd finger: "Uncle, you are too ignorant. Last time in Lingbi, my father had already let you go, and today the army entered the city, so if you don't come to greet you, you dare to bring your family to make trouble. ”

Xu Huizu also scolded back: "I am inseparable from the rebellious ministers and thieves. ”

Zhu Gaochu was furious and stabbed with a gun, Xu Huizu had no horse, he couldn't resist it, so he had to turn around and flee, Zhu Gaochu chased after him, Xu Huizu walked through the streets and alleys, ran into a mansion, and closed the door.

Zhu Gaoxu was about to break into the door, only to see a plaque hanging above the gate, which read Zhongshan King Temple.

It turned out that this was the ancestral hall of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, and Zhu Gaoxu was groaning, whether he wanted to break in.

Suddenly, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, sent someone to say that the matter was important and ordered him to return immediately, and Zhu Gaoxu hated to leave.

Zhu Gaoxu returned to the team, saw King Yan, and said: "Father, my army has entered the city, and the southern army is scattered as birds and beasts. ”

King Yan said: "Don't worry, first order the army to occupy the Jinchuan Gate, and you and my father and son will slowly enter the palace." ”

Zhu Gaoxu was puzzled: "Father, why is this?" ”

King Yan smiled and said, "You will know yourself in the future." ”

Zhang Shixing ran into the Qianqing Palace, saw Emperor Jianwen, and told him that the Jinchuan Gate had been lost, and Emperor Jianwen heard that the back was like ashes, and hurriedly ordered the inner servants to beat drums to summon the ministers to the palace to discuss countermeasures.

After a while, only Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng came, and Emperor Jianwen asked in surprise, "Where is Mr. Fang?" ”

Huang Zicheng sighed and said: "Mr. Fang is seriously ill and can't come to the court, so he asked me to bring a message to His Majesty, saying that he would rather die than live up to His Majesty's kindness." ”

Emperor Jianwen paused and said: "Li Jinglong has surrendered to the thief, the Jinchuan Gate has been broken, the two Aiqing, how to deal with the current situation?" ”

Qi Tai said: "Your Majesty, now I have to abandon the Beijing Division, look for foreign aid, and then make plans." ”

Emperor Jianwen said: "Where to find foreign aid?" ”

Qi Tai said: "When you go to Yunnan to find Xiping Marquis Musheng, there are still tens of thousands of troops there, and you can compete with the Yan thief." ”

Huang Zicheng shook his head and said: "It's thousands of miles away from Yunnan, and there are many checkpoints, how to get there?" Even if he can go to Yunnan, I don't know if Musheng, the Marquis of Xiping, is loyal. In my humble opinion, when I went to Zhejiang, I went to sea from Ningbo Mansion, first took refuge overseas for a while, and waited for the opportunity to move. ”

Emperor Jianwen said angrily: "At this time, the two of you are still arguing, no wonder the swallow thief is sitting big, so far." ”

Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng heard Emperor Jianwen's blame, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, weeping bitterly and said: "The situation is like this, it is all my sin, please punish Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Jianwen helped the two of them up and said: "I know that you two are loyal, and now I can't blame you, I am a benevolent and gentle lord, how can I deal with that cunning man of King Yan?" ”

Zhang Shixing saw that the situation was urgent, and several of their monarchs and ministers were still chattering, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "In the opinion of the last general, the concubine Mei Yin is close to Huai'an, with an army of 400,000, we can go to him, and then order Tie Xuan to lead the Shandong righteous army to the south and converge in one place, and the world can still do things." ”

When Emperor Jianwen heard this, his eyes lit up, and he sighed: "Hongyi has been in the army for a long time, and his knowledge is extraordinary, so I and you will leave Beijing immediately and go to Huai'an." ”

After that, Emperor Jianwen was going to lead everyone out of the palace.

Zhang Shixing stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, your outfit is really eye-catching, it's better to change into civilian clothes and leave the palace." ”

Emperor Jianwen came to his senses and said: "You reminded me right, I haven't been out of the palace for a long time, and I forgot about it." ”

Then he shouted: "Wang Desheng, Wang Desheng." ”

He shouted for a long time, and Wang Desheng walked up to the hall tremblingly, and a little eunuch beside him did not follow.

Emperor Jianwen shouted angrily: "Wang Daban, why did you call you to come for half a day?" ”

Wang Desheng said: "The old slave is old, his legs and feet are inconvenient, and there is no one left with his apprentices running around, and there is no one to support him, so he is late, please forgive your majesty." Then he shall kneel down and prostrate himself and plead guilty.

Emperor Jianwen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Wang Daban, you are old, there is no need to be polite." You go find a set of civilian clothes and put them on for me, and I want to leave the palace in microclothes. ”

Wang Desheng thought for a while, shook his head and said, "The palace is full of dragon robes, where did the civilian clothes come from?" ”

Emperor Jianwen hurriedly said: "Wang Daban, you go and find me, even if you find the West Heaven, you have to find it for me." ”

When Wang Desheng heard the word Xitian, his heart moved, and he staggered out, and after a while, he came in with a burden, and said: "This is a month before the death of Emperor Taizu Gao in the 31st year of Hongwu, Master Dexuan of Jiming Temple once entered the palace to meet Emperor Gao, and offered several sets of monk's clothes, saying that it is for His Majesty to bathe and fast, wear monk's clothes, and recite Buddhist scriptures, which can eliminate disasters and avoid disasters. But since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has been busy with state affairs and has no time for this, so these things have been placed in the treasury of the palace. ”

Emperor Jianwen opened the baggage, only to see that there were three sets of monk's robes, shoes and socks, as well as three degrees and a razor. He opened the degree and saw that the three Dharma names of Empty Smell, Empty Seal, and Empty Energy were written on it.

When Emperor Jianwen saw this, he couldn't help but be stunned, could it be that Master Dexuan had prepared these things a long time ago to help me escape?

Zhang Shixing saw that he was stunned, and urged: "Your Majesty, without further ado, hurry up and dress up." ”

When Emperor Jianwen heard this, he hurriedly sat down cross-legged and ordered Wang Desheng to shave his hair. That Wang Desheng took off Emperor Jianwen's golden crown, untied Emperor Jianwen's hair, picked up the razor tremblingly, and shaved Emperor Jianwen's hair with tears in his eyes.

Watching the pieces of green silk fall, Emperor Jianwen couldn't help but shed tears.

Emperor Jianwen has finished shaving his head, changed into a monk's robe, and everyone looked at it, only to see a compassionate monk standing in front of him, where is there still half an emperor's atmosphere.

Zhang Shixing packed up his baggage, put it on his back, and said to Emperor Jianwen: "Your Majesty, let's go quickly, after delaying for so many hours, the Yan army is about to enter the palace." I'll open the way ahead. ”

They were about to leave the palace, when a person suddenly broke in from outside the palace, pulled Emperor Jianwen's clothes and cried loudly, and everyone looked at it, it turned out to be Queen Ma.

The queen Ma cried: "I heard that the Yan army has entered the city, why do you look like this, the emperor, and where are you going?" ”

Emperor Jianwen also cried: "I went out of the city to move the rescue soldiers, so I traveled in micro-clothes." ”

The queen said: "Your Majesty, you are gone, and when you see the King of Yan, how should the concubine deal with herself?" ”

Emperor Jianwen said angrily: "You are the queen of the main palace of the Ming Dynasty, and you must not insult the name of the queen." Then he went out of the temple.

The queen pulled Emperor Jianwen's shirt and said, "Your Majesty, don't go." Let's give this country to the king of Yan and retreat to the forest, okay? ”

Emperor Jianwen pushed her to the ground and reprimanded angrily: "Nonsense, my country is passed down to me by Emperor Taizu Gao, how can I let it go." I am gone, do what you want, and don't be humiliated by others. ”

After that, Emperor Jianwen walked out of the palace, Zhang Shixing was in front, Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng were behind, and he hugged Emperor Jianwen and walked outside the Xuanwu Gate.

At this time, he suddenly saw a puff of black smoke rising from the Qianqing Palace, and he shouted: "Go and put out the fire." He wanted to turn around and go back.

Zhang Shixing picked him up on the horse, the two rode together, and then knocked the horse's belly, went out of Bei'anmen, and galloped towards Taipingmen. Huang Zicheng rode a yellow horse, and Qi Tai rode a white horse and followed closely behind him.

Zhu Di led the army to enter Chengtianmen, and the joy in his heart was indescribable. He never expected that it was such a desperate gamble, a thousand miles of leap forward, he really had to enter the capital, just a few years of hard work, not only did he turn the crisis into safety, but also made the country change hands, all the painstaking and lonely words of his father and emperor were all in vain, what is this, this is the destiny of heaven.

But how to settle his nephew emperor at the moment is a headache, whether to learn from Zhou Gongfu to become a king, or imitate Cao Cao to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, or he takes the initiative to concede, Zhu Di hasn't figured it out yet, so he doesn't want to see Emperor Jianwen earlier.

After entering the Chengtian Gate, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, jumped off the horse again, slowly entered the Taimiao, worshiped the ancestors of the past dynasties, and cried that he had no choice but to lead troops into Beijing this time. At this time, Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Gaoyang County, hurriedly came to report and said: "Father, the big thing is not good, there is a fire in the Qianqing Palace." ”

When Zhu Di, the king of Yan, heard this, he hurriedly stood up, waved his hand and said, "Let's go, go and have a look." ”

When they walked in front of the Qianqing Palace, the fire had been extinguished by the Yan army, who had entered the palace in advance, and the Yan army dragged out a charred corpse from the fire, slender and short, like a woman.

Zhu Di walked forward quickly, crying and worshipping: "Idiot, why is this so? ”
