At this moment, a eunuch arrived outside the Dongnuan Pavilion and said loudly: "Emperor Qiyu, Luo Yangxing, Guang Shiheng, Gao Yushun, Yang Guanguan, Li Yuanding and many ministers have come to Wuyingmen and asked to be summoned. ”

Li Zicheng put away the coldness on his face, "What is such a newly descended minister doing at this time?" ”

Niu Jinxing said: "Probably to persuade the emperor to come, the emperor was ready to ascend to the great ceremony before the expedition, and then postponed because of the army, and now the ministers see the emperor coming back, so they want to ask the emperor to do this." ”

Li Yan shook his head lightly: "Ascending to the pole in Beijing is equivalent to announcing to the world that the emperor is the co-lord of the north, if Beijing is lost to the Tartars again, then how will the whole world look at the emperor?" ”

Li Zicheng sighed, his heart was very heavy: "This trip shouldn't have come, so many brothers died, and the Tartars were allowed to enter the customs, and in the end, only one of them landed in Beijing." Alas, if you don't go to the pole, it will be even more waste.

Let's get to the top! Tomorrow I will ascend to the pole, and then I will go...... The gold and silver treasures in the city, as well as the two sons of Emperor Zhu Thief, a noble concubine, and the royal eunuch, arrange for them to leave today. Chen Yongfu also left, and went to Taiyuan day and night. ”

"The minister also went back to Tianjin Wei to pack up the people." Li Yan didn't dare to defend Beijing according to the plan, and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

"Good!" Li Zicheng nodded and said, "Tianjin can't be defended, you and your wife clean up and retreat to Shanxi." ”

......

"Big brother, how's it going? Is the emperor leaving? ”

Luo Yangxing, who took the lead in persuasion, returned to his mansion with a sad face before and after dusk, and as soon as he entered the door, he met his brother Luo Xiushen, who had been waiting for an unknown amount of time.

"Oh," Luo Yangxing nodded, and said in a low voice, "Ascend to the pole tomorrow, and leave the day after tomorrow." ”

"What? Still going to the pole? Luo Xiushen smiled, "When is it?" Also on the pole ......"

"Say what?" Luo Yangxing glared at his brother, looked left and right, and found no one else, so he breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards his study.

Luo Xiushen told his brother about something, and followed him all the way to the study.

After entering the study, Luo Yangxing took the maid and the scholar away, and Luo Xiushen closed the doors and windows and lit an oil lamp.

The two brothers, by the dim light, stared at the little ones with big eyes.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Luo Yangxing asked.

Luo Xiushen pointed to the desk, on which there was a letter.

Luo Yangxing picked up the envelope, tore it open, took out the letterhead, glanced at it, and his face changed slightly: "A handwritten letter from Lord Chitose...... Second brother, do you have contact with Dagukou? ”

"It's not from Dagukou." Luo Xiushen shook his head, "It was given to the younger brother by the prince before he left Beijing...... The prince is really a god, and at that time, he expected that Li Zicheng would not be able to stay in Beijing for two months! And now it has come true! ”

Luo Yangxing picked up the letter and looked at it, frowning the faster he went.

"What's wrong? What does the letter say? ”

Luo Yangxing shook his head: "Master Chitose wants me to be the third minister...... If you can't be a second minister, you have to be a third minister! ”

"Oh?" Luo Xiushen asked, "How to be?" ”

Luo Yangxing snorted: "I came forward to gather the old department, close the city gate, and prevent the Tartar soldiers from entering. ”

"Then how can you be a third minister?"

"Humph! Three ministers, of course! Luo Yangxing said, "It's just that the Tartar soldiers will not be allowed to enter the city for the time being...... After all, it is still necessary to surrender in Kaicheng, and when Hong Chengchou arrives, he will surrender and delay for a little time. ”

"Oh." Luo Xiushen smiled, "Then drag it out...... However, the younger brother can't accompany his brother to be a third minister this time. ”

"How?" Luo Yangxing glanced at his younger brother, "Where are you going?" ”

"Go to Datong." Luo Xiu said, "Brother and Datong general Jiang Jiu have an old age, right?" ”

"The Jiang family has been a family member for generations, and we are friends with our family." Luo Yangxing said, "What? Chitose Ye wants Jiang Hao to do it anyway? ”

"Hehe, I can't hide anything from my eldest brother." Luo Xiushen said, "The decree to pardon Jiang Jiu is ready before leaving Beijing...... Even the ticket is intended and the bonus is available! Ask the eldest brother for a handwritten letter now, and the younger brother will go out of the city tonight. ”

"What?" Luo Yangxing was stunned and stunned, "He also expected this?" Isn't he more powerful than Zhuge Liang? ”

Luo Xiushen nodded admiringly, "That's right!" Chitose Ye is definitely better than Zhuge Liang! Big brother, you can wait in Beijing with peace of mind, within ten years, Daming will definitely come back. ”

"Hmm," Luo Yangxing rolled his eyelids, "and then your brother and I will have to surrender again...... That's the Four Ministers! Together, in this life, it is surrender to come, surrender to go! ”

"You're not lurking!" Luo Xiu said, "You surrendered by order, and you can go down in history in the future." ”

The surrender is still in history......

Luo Yangxing just shook his head, but he still picked up the pen and paper and began to write to Jiang Hao. After getting his brother's handwritten letter, Luo Xiushen immediately mounted his horse and took dozens of followers out of the city. He was a subordinate of Ruhou Liu Zongmin, and he had the token of Ruhou on his body, and the defenders of the city gate certainly did not dare to stop him, so they had to let him fly out and go to Datong Mansion in Shanxi to stir up the storm.

And Hong Chengchou, the secretary of the Qing Dynasty Military Department, who was going to be stirred up by him, was wiping his tears in the lobby of the Funingwei Command Department with a letter from Emperor Chongzhen at this time!

I don't know if Hong Chengchou's acting skills are good, or Wei Zaode's article is wonderful. In short, Hong Chengchou and Hong traitors seem to be moved!

"Woo, I didn't expect the emperor to still think of the old minister, and apologize to the old minister, and I don't blame the old minister for voting for the Qing Dynasty......"

Looking at the roe deer's eyes, Hong Chengchou, who looked like a traitor, was crying sadly, and Zhou Zerui, the envoy sent by Zhu Cihong, also wiped his eyes with a handkerchief, and he really squeezed out tears!

"It's not a secret, when the emperor mentioned the superintendent a few days ago, he couldn't cry in the court." Zhou Zerui said, "The emperor said that this time the Ming Dynasty was able to prosper, all thanks to the superintendent!" Although the inspector is in the Qing Dynasty, his heart is still towards the Ming Dynasty. If the superintendent can return to the Ming Dynasty, the emperor will give the superintendent a marquis, and let the superintendent be the first assistant of the cabinet!

The superintendent's mother and brothers are all in Fujian, and the superintendent is the son of filial piety, don't you want to reunite with them? It's better to talk to the regent of the Qing Dynasty and let you go back to Daming. At that time, the superintendent will be able to serve his mother in Beijing with the dignity of a marquis, and at the same time take charge of the government for the Ming Dynasty. ”

As a marquis, as a first assistant, you can also be a filial son...... Seriously, Hong Chengchou is really a little tempted.

But that's just a little bit!

He now firmly believes that the death of the Ming Dynasty and the revival of the Qing Dynasty are the trend of the times, and when he returns to the Ming Dynasty, he can only accompany the Zhu dynasty to the funeral. Staying on the side of the Qing Dynasty, he can really assist the Ming Lord, dominate the world, and then go down in history - in history, he was honorably listed in the "Biography of the Second Minister" compiled during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty!

"This official is now a courtier of the Qing Dynasty," Hong Chengchou considered his words, and did not say to death, "Even if you want to go back to the Ming Dynasty, you have to ask for the permission of the regent, and the Qing Dynasty treats me well, and I also have to eat the king's luck and share the king's worries." ”

"That's natural."

"Zhou Shilang (Zhu Cihong added him the title of Waiter of the Ministry of Rites)," Hong Chengchou paused, "The thieves suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Shanhaiguan, or they should abandon Beijing and leave in a few days...... I wonder when the emperor and the crown prince will be able to return to Beijing? ”

"Oh, this one." Zhou Zerui smiled, "This Beijing is definitely going back, but the specific date, the lower officials don't know."

In addition, Dongyu, oh, there are still 100,000 soldiers in the Qing Dynasty in Beizhili, and many people in the court are restless, even the emperor is a little scared. ”

"What's there to be afraid of?" Hong Chengchou's eyes rolled, "It's just a big Qing Dynasty to make money, as long as you get the silver, you will retreat." ”

"That's, that'...... But the emperor is still a little reassured," Zhou Zerui paused, "So I have the idea of marrying and marrying the Qing Dynasty." ”

"Marriage and kinship?" Hong Chengchou nodded, "Emperor Ming wants to marry the princess to my Emperor of the Qing Dynasty?" ”

"No," Zhou Zerui shook his head, "The emperor heard that the regent has a daughter...... Virtuous and virtuous, noble temperament, and motherly demeanor in the world, so I wanted to ask for this family for the crown prince and hire him as the crown princess! ”

"What? Hire, hire the regent Gege as the crown princess? Hong Chengchou was stunned and stunned, "Is this really what the emperor meant?" ”

He is a little suspicious now, it is said that Da Ming is now the regent of the crown prince Fujun! Could it be that the crown prince Zhu Cihong is cheating?
