"What? What did you say? ”

"Your Majesty, the Qing Kingdom is gone!"

"Qing Guo is gone? It's true? ”

"There's really no ......"

On February 18, the seventh year of Hongxing in the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhu, who had a celebration wine with the civil and military generals in the palace of Yunlong Mountain last night, came with him today, and just finished washing, and before he had time to eat breakfast, he heard an unbelievable great news.

The Great Qing Kingdom is gone!

So a big Qing country, how can it be said that it is gone?

Didn't the gang of people in the Military Division's Mansion say that it would take ten years to destroy the Great Qing Kingdom, how long is it now? It has not been ten months since the start of the war, so why is it gone?

Emperor Zhu hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”

"Your Majesty, the slaves don't know what's going on......" Huang Xiaobao, who came early in the morning to report the good news to Emperor Zhu, just shook his head again and again, "Li Yan, Qian Qianyi and Zu Kefa are all waiting outside the palace, Your Majesty might as well ask them in person!" ”

"Okay," Zhu Cihong took a deep breath, "Hurry up...... Let them come and have breakfast with me. ”

"The slave obeys."

Huang Xiaobao saluted and turned around. Zhu Cihong turned around and saw Jin Dongzhu, who was still waiting for him to get dressed last night, standing aside, his mouth open, Shan Feng's eyes staring, and he didn't know what he was thinking?

"Dongzhu," Zhu Cihong said with a smile, "Let's have breakfast with me." ”

Jin Dongzhu reacted at this time and gave Zhu Cihong a blessing. Emperor Zhu took her little hand and said, "It seems that Qingguo really can't live without your father!" But it's none of your business...... You are now my nobleman, just give birth to children for me with peace of mind, but you can't lag behind Xu Erlin too much. ”

Xu Ermo's cousin Xu Erlin entered the palace with Jin Dongzhu (referring to the official entry into the palace), and now she is pregnant, but Jin Dongzhu's belly has not moved at all. Hearing Emperor Zhu say this, Jin Dongzhu's white skin suddenly turned red, his head hung down, and his heart fluttered again.

These days, Xu Erlin is protecting the fetus because of a little blood, so the task of sleeping mainly falls on Jin Dongzhu......

Zhu Cihong took Jin Dongzhu's hand and went to the dining room on the edge of the dormitory together, breakfast has been served, very simple, white porridge, eggs, and a very strange fritters, what is called eight-strand fritters, and Baguwen has nothing to do with it, it is about to pinch four fritters together and fry them, usually one fritter is two, it is eight-strands...... It's a big pile on a plate, and I can't eat a single meal, which is a bit similar to the Great Qing Kingdom that is suddenly not available now.

The Great Qing Kingdom is also a lot of it! I can't swallow a ......

Just yesterday, before Emperor Zhu and his courtiers below drank the celebration wine (to celebrate the victory of Diandian), he also received a battle report from Zhu Chunchen, the governor of Jiangbei—not good news, but news of the setback of the siege of Suizhou!

Guarding Suizhou is the Xu Dingguo who should kill a thousand knives, he is the head snake of Suizhou, he walked the way when he built the green flag, and he was sealed in Suizhou, and he has been operating hard for many years, and has built Suizhou into an independent kingdom of the Xu family.

Before Emperor Zhu sent troops to the Northern Expedition, this old man Xu also sent someone to secretly contact Zhu Chunchen, the governor of Jiangbei who had been in the Ming army, and put forward the condition of "defending one state in the world", which was rejected by Zhu Cihong.

Zhu Cihong doesn't accept military traitors now, on the one hand, he has strength, and on the other hand, because there is no place to settle them. I don't know how many people are staring at that little land in the north! Where can I leave another copy for the traitors?

As for coaxing it first, and then settling accounts after autumn or something...... Emperor Zhu is honest and will not do this - he can't let a group of northerners and martial artists under his command be a homecoming group in vain! Want land? Fight hard!

But Zhu Chunchen's ability to fight seems to be not good, he commanded two divisions to fight a Suizhou, and he hasn't fought it yet!

In contrast, Wu Sanfu and Zhu Yujian are much more sharp. The army commanded by the two has cleanly broken through Ruzhou and Xuzhou, and killed Bai Guangen and Liu Liangzuo Manmen! The heads of Bai Guangen and Liu Liangzuo were also sent to Yunlong Mountain in Xuzhou in two beautiful carved boxes for people to enjoy.

However, in the territory of Shandong and Henan provinces, there are still many strongholds of the Qing army, such as Dezhou, Liaocheng and Anping in Shandong, Suizhou and Zhengzhou (Geng Jingzhong is guarding) in Henan, and Daying, Luoyang, Hongnong and Huaiqing in Henan.

Some of these cities (strongholds) have been besieged, and some have not yet been attacked by the Ming army. If you want to capture it all, it is estimated that it will take several months or even a year.

And the Great Qing Kingdom suddenly disappeared...... That's an unexpected variable!

Just when Emperor Zhu was looking at a large pile of eight-strand fritters in a daze, Li Yan, Qian Qianyi and Zu Kefa came in to pay their respects.

"Sit, sit, let's eat together! Zu Kefa, you came from Tianjin Wei day and night, right? You must be tired and hungry, there is an eight-strand fritter here, so I'll give it to you. ”

Zu Kefa is indeed too tired, Tianjin is a thousand miles away from Xuzhou! He finished the run in less than three days, changed a few horses halfway, can he not get tired? However, his stomach was not hungry, because he ate steamed buns and steamed dumplings and drank a large bowl of pheasant soup when he passed through Pengcheng (Xuzhou City) early in the morning.

But now that the emperor has given him a lump of fritters, he still has to eat them. Zu Kefa thanked him, and he didn't use chopsticks, but directly with his hands (I don't know if I washed it or not?). I grabbed an eight-strand fritter and took a big bite, and it was quite fragrant!

Zhu Cihong also had an appetite when he saw it, but he couldn't be so rude, so he gave Jin Dongzhu a look, and asked Dongzhu to tear it with his hand and take it to himself.

"Kefa, tell me, what's going on? Why is the Qing Kingdom gone? ”

Zu Kefa swallowed a mouthful of fritters and replied with a smile: "Back to the emperor's words, Fu Lin learned that Duoduo had a fiasco in Victory, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to be the emperor of the Qing Dynasty anymore. ”

"Ahem......" Zhu Cihong didn't expect Fulin to be so lacking in fatherly love, he actually made such a request, and choked on the fritters, and Jin Dongzhu on the side saw it and hurriedly served a bowl of tea and let the Ming Emperor drink it - if he accidentally choked to death, where would Fulin find Amma?

Zhu Cihong hurriedly swallowed the fritters with tea, and then shook his head with a smile: "How can there be such a thing...... Is he willing to hand over Beijing and Tianjin? ”

Zu Kefa said: "Verbally agreed...... However, the minister thinks this is a delaying tactic! ”

"A delaying tactic?" Zhu Cihong asked, "Then I can't agree!" Shi Kefa is still surrounding Tianjin Wei, right? ”

"Surrounded by layers!" Li Yan interjected, "It's hard to fly away even if you have wings in Fulin. ”

"That's good!" Zhu Cihong said with a smile, "I don't lack a son now, if Fulin wants to live, come to Nanjing to be Prince Gong...... Glory and wealth, he is indispensable! ”

"Your Majesty," Qian Qianyi interjected at this time, "the old minister thinks that you should still accept this son of Fulin!" ”

"Really? But he's delaying the war! Zhu Cihong said.

Qian Qianyi said: "Your Majesty, we can plan it!" ”

"Will it be calculated?" Zhu Cihong asked, "How do you plan it?" ”

Qian Qianyi glanced at Jin Dongzhu, who was sitting next to Zhu Cihong, who was peeling eggs, and then said, "Your Majesty can ask Fulin to hand over his mother Bumu Butai!" ”

"This ......," Emperor Zhu's eyes widened, "What do I want that Mongolian aunt to do?" ”

Zhu Cihong had already inquired with Jin Dongzhu, Bumu Butai was an aunt, and she was quite fat, not good-looking at all, and she was also old.

Qian Qianyi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, of course this Bumu Butai is for people to see!" ”

"To whom?"

"Show it to the people of the world, and show it to the traitors in Dezhou, Anping, Liaocheng, Zhengzhou and other places!" Qian Qianyi said, "If everyone knows that Fulin has sacrificed his own mother, then who still believes that the Qing Kingdom can have a day of rejuvenation?" ”
