If you want to break the dragon vein, dig up the bones first, and destroy the bones that absorb the dragon's breath, so as to cut off the connection between the dragon vein and the Aixin Jueluo family, which is the first step and a very critical step in cutting off the dragon vein.

The Ten Directions Ghost Shovel used by Sakura is also made in the same way as the Seven Star Nails of Breaking Technique, but the refining time is longer, and it takes seven hundred and forty-nine days to refine.

Its principle and effect are also to take it from yin to filth, so that ghosts and gods can avoid it. Everyone saw that under the drifting heavy rain, Sakura's small body crossed a black shadow and rushed straight under the dragon vein ancient tree.

He circled around the dragon vein ancient tree, constantly tapping the ground with the ten-sided ghost shovel, as if to determine the location of the buried bones.

Soon he seemed to have identified a spot, and began to dig with his shovel. Strange to say, under the ancient tree of the dragon vein, the ground that was originally very hard was easily dug by him with a ten-sided ghost shovel, and after a while, a huge metal box that seemed to be made of brass was dug up by Sakura.

Sakura looked up and down at the metal box covered with patina with a happy face, and as soon as she held it in her arms, she turned around and ran towards Fang Zhongji.

At this time, an unexpected accident happened. On this dragon vein ancient tree, a black gas suddenly emerged, like a sword thrown out, from Sakura's chest, violently through.

Sakura screamed loudly, blood spurted wildly from her mouth, and then she fell to the ground. The metal box that was held in his arms fell to the ground at once.

"Sakura!" Fang Zhongji roared sharply, his face twisted in pain. It's just that now he can't move at all, and he is using all his Dao power to resist the countless gods and demons summoned by the dragon vein in the sky, preventing them from breaking through the enchantment, and even going down to earth to be strange.

The two Tang Army soldiers guarding the altar glanced at each other, and then ran together to snatch the cherry blossom dress and the metal box.

Unexpectedly, they rushed over, and on this dragon vein ancient tree, two black gases erupted one after another, piercing the two of them from their chests.

The two Tang soldiers fell to the ground and died without even letting out a scream.

"Don't go over! This is the breath of the dragon vein, and the one who is in it will die!

Fang Zhongji yelled at the panicked Tang soldiers. Li Xiao, who was in the distance, frowned unconsciously when he saw this sudden change in the situation. It seems that this matter of cutting off the dragon veins is very unsmooth at this critical juncture. What to do? This kind of mysterious and grotesque thing can't be intervened in at all, and the only hope now is that Fang Zhongji can save himself. When Li Xiaozheng's heart was anxious, he suddenly saw that Fang Zhongji, who was drenched in the heavy rain, suddenly drank sharply, freed his left hand, and connected several acupuncture points on his chest, and then, he opened his mouth violently, and a stream of blood spurted out, all splashing on the peach wood sword raised to the sky in his right hand. Seeing this scene, Li Xiao's heart sank. He knew that Fang Zhongji's action was to use the blood of the Yang in his heart to stimulate the potential of the Peach Wood Sword. If you do this, of course, it will greatly increase the power of the Peachwood Sword in a short period of time, but it will cause irreparable damage to the caster. With a clanging sound like a sword, the peachwood sword suddenly released a bright red light, and then, Fang Zhongji suddenly withdrew his hand, and the peachwood sword was still like a divine help, staying in the air. Immediately, Fang Zhongji took a few strange steps on the altar, and then shouted at the peach wood sword, and a dazzling red light shot out from the top of the peach wood sword, straight into the sky. Immediately, Fang Zhong Jifu held the sword in both hands, he jumped up from the altar, and he was like a lightning bolt when the ground suddenly appeared, and with a whoosh, he rushed straight towards the dragon vein ancient tree. One after another, black qi, like a flying sword, rushed towards Fang Zhongji, who was rushing towards him. Rao is Fang Zhongji's body swept along the way, dodging many black gases, but in the end, there were still two black gases, which penetrated his thighs and abdomen vividly. This kind of black qi penetrates the body, although it will not leave traces of injury on the outside, but it will cause extremely serious damage to the body, and if you hurt your organs, you will definitely die. Fang Zhongji was lucky not to be shot, but he was also seriously injured. Rushing over, he roared wildly, and the peachwood sword in his hand was like a burst of red light, deeply piercing into this dragon vein ancient tree! The following is anti-theft, which will be replaced later. Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty - the year name of Zhu Youzhen of Ming Sizong, lasted for more than 16 years and 3 months, and finally came to its end. At midnight on March 18, the 17th year of Chongzhen, that is, before the early morning of the 19th, the peasant army led by Li Zicheng entered the outer and inner cities of Beijing and approached the imperial city. At the last moment, the desperate Zhu Youzhen hanged himself in the coal mountain (i.e., Jingshan) north of the Forbidden City. His death meant the end of an era, and the Ming Dynasty, established by the ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang in 1368, came to an end in this year (1644). Although Li Zicheng overthrew the Ming Dynasty, the days of his Dashun regime in the Forbidden City were only forty days. Due to the failure to recruit Wu Sangui, the general soldier of the Ming Dynasty, he personally led the main force to Shanhaiguan to conquer, but was suddenly attacked by the Manchurian iron cavalry, and the army was defeated and retreated to Beijing in a hurry. After Li Zicheng entered the Forbidden City, he did not hold an ascension ceremony for a long time, and when the general trend had gone, on April 29, he hurriedly held an ascension ceremony in the Wuying Palace, became emperor for one day, and began to evacuate Beijing the next day. On May 3, the regent of the Qing Dynasty, Dolgon, and his entourage, under the escort of cavalry, rode into the Chaoyang Gate and went straight to the Forbidden City. So began the era of the Qing Dynasty emperor ruling the whole country, and this year was the first year of Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty. In the transition period from the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, the seventeenth year of Chongzhen has a special significance. For the old and young of the Ming Dynasty, this is an unbearable time, so they are for the pain of losing the country in the wonderful poem "Poppy Beauty" written by Li Houzhu, who also lost the country-

"Xiaolou had another east wind last night, so the country can't afford to look back at the moonlight. The carved fence and jade masonry should still be there, but Zhu Yangai is full of poignant resonance, so it is not difficult to understand.

At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, when Kong Shangren's famous novel "Peach Blossom Fan" was staged, it had been half a century since the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

The last seventeen years of the Ming Dynasty were really a tragic era. According to the periodic law of the dynasty -

"Its rise is also vigorous, and its death is also sudden", the Ming Dynasty, which lasted for 276 years, was not short-lived.

The entire Ming Dynasty, like a capital English letter M, Yongle and Xuande periods appeared the first peak, its symbol is the shock of the world's Zheng He went to the West, praised by Western scholars

The feat of "discovering the world". After that, it gradually went downhill, and in the first decade of Wanli, due to the reform of Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the cabinet, there was Wanli Zhongxing, which made the Wanli period the most prosperous and powerful period in the history of the Ming Dynasty, creating the second peak of the Ming Dynasty.

But the good times did not last long, and the emperor wanted to eliminate Zhang Juzheng

The influence of "authoritarian shock" completely negated Zhang Juzheng's political achievements, and even thought he was

"Authoritarian and chaotic government",

"Disloyalty to the country". As a result, the high-level political leaders in the late Wanli period were busy with the dispute between friends and parties

"Fighting in the nest", state affairs took a sharp turn. In the period of the Apocalypse, the emperor was mediocre, and the power of the court fell into the hands of the great eunuch Wei Zhongxian, which was formed

In the situation of the dictatorship of the "eunuch party", the upright bureaucrats are either dismissed or killed, and the political situation is extremely corrupt.

It was in this situation that Zhu Youzhen succeeded to the throne. He severely punished Wei Zhongxian and his henchmen and investigated them

"Eunuch anti-case", for suffering

The bureaucrats persecuted by the "eunuch party" rehabilitated Zhaoxue and put things in order, hoping to build a situation of prosperity again.

However, the situation had changed dramatically, and the Qing Dynasty in the northeast was becoming more and more full-fledged, and the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty were repeatedly defeated in wars, and the Manchurian iron cavalry repeatedly crossed the Great Wall fortress and threatened Beijing and its surrounding areas.

The rebel army headed by Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong has become a prairie fire and galloped through the Central Plains. These two forces both wanted to replace the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Chongzhen and his ministers tried to turn the tide of the tide, but they had more than enough strength and staged a tragedy of the country.

In this tragedy, everyone is acting out the tragedy, the emperor ends the curtain with tragedy, and the ministers also end in tragedy.

The Ming Dynasty was helpless to perish, and died at the hands of an emperor who wanted to make a difference, not only the old and young of the Ming Dynasty, but even the Shunzhi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, all sighed.

The tragedy lies in the fact that Zhu Youzhen, who is not the king of the fallen country, performed a tragedy of the lost country. In all fairness, Zhu Youzhen is definitely not a faint monarch among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is outstanding.

After he came to power, he tried to turn the tide, but because of the accumulation of too many problems, the internal decay has long been hollowed out, and the decline is irreversible.

Helplessly, the flowers fell, and the towering dynasty edifice fell with a bang. Zhu Youzhen himself was martyred by hanging himself.

How can such a plot not be sad! In the form of tragedy, it shows the process of the demise of a dynasty.

I have restored the details of this tragedy as realistically as possible, in order to give readers a profound revelation inherent in history, not just the nostalgia of the past.

Just as we watch Shakespeare's tragedy "Hamlet", we do not have to stand in Hamlet's position, but look at history from a distance with a detached eye.

One of the great contributions of the German historian Ranke, who was the only one in European history in the 19th century, was to turn history into a science.

His famous quote that the narrative of history should be objective, dispassionate, and colorless is an unattainable realm.

I want to get as close to it as possible, and it is the duty of historians to do so. Only in this way will it be possible to approach the historical truth, and to deal with all sorts of things

"Joke" draws a clear line. Historical TV series

The trend of "jokes" has been around for a long time, and when people criticize, the choreographers and directors make excuses

"We are not making up history textbooks" to pay tribute. Of course, people like to watch interesting plays rather than boring textbook renditions.

But you can't always let everyone see it

"Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong"Ah! If left unchecked, then in the long run, a kind will be formed in the audience

"Discourse hegemony", the trick is believed to be true. so-called

"When the fake is true, the truth is also false", and at that time, it will be troublesome. Of course, historians should also examine why historical writings are so boring and daunting.

History is inherently turbulent and vivid, and it is entirely possible for historians to write history in a vivid and lively manner.

Sima Qian's "Historical Records" is a good example, and he doesn't need to

"Joke" is still fascinating, very

"Good-looking". The Chinese translations of the recent best-selling works by the American historian Jonathan, such as The Death of Wang, Cao Yin and Kangxi, and The Emperor and Xiucai, are both scholarly and readable, and provide us with good examples.

He used

The way of "storytelling" introduces his research results to readers, integrates historical materials, and expresses them in vivid writing, with a keen eye, a profound and unique perspective, but also very

"Good-looking" can be seen from this, the pursuit

"Good-looking" doesn't have to be

"Joking" is not allowed, that is,

"Good looking" does not have to come at the expense of historical truth. The life of a historical work lies in the truth, and without the truth, again

"Good-looking" also makes no sense. This is also the principle that I followed in writing this book. What is written in the book is true and credible, that is, the so-called history of faith, all of which are based on historical documents and have records to be checked.

However, as a popular reading material, there is no need to cite scriptures and indicate the sources one by one. In this way, many dyslexia can be reduced, and the joy of reading can be felt in the vivid plot and smooth text.

If, after a light reading, you can get some enlightenment from the tragedy of a dynasty going to the end, it is the charm of history itself.

I'm just passing on this charm to you. From Zhu Changluo to Zhu Youxiao Zhu Youzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, that is, Ming Sizong, because his era name is Chongzhen, so he is also known as Emperor Chongzhen, born in the thirty-eighth year of Wanli (1610), when his grandfather Zhu Yijun (Mingshenzong) was on the throne, he was the fifth son of the crown prince Zhu Changluo.

On July 22, the forty-eighth year of Wanli (1620), Zhu Yijun died, and on the first day of August, Zhu Changluo succeeded to the throne (Mingguangzong).

Zhu Yijun wanted to pass on the throne to Zheng Guifei's son Zhu Changxun because he favored Zheng Guifei, but was repeatedly opposed by the courtiers, so he had to pass on to the crown prince Zhu Changluo.

Zhu Changluo, who grew up in the shadow of the power struggle within the court, has been suppressed and cautious for a long time.

Ascending to the throne was both an opportunity and a challenge for him. His father, Zhu Yijun, was plagued by illness in his later years, and rarely listened to politics in the court, and the central government was almost paralyzed.

He took over the mess left by his father, tried to rectify the disordered government, get out of the predicament, and take care of everything every day.

However, he was weak and sickly from an early age, and as an adult, he became addicted to alcohol, and once he was overloaded, his body could not bear it.

Zheng Guifei, the widow of her father, has political ambitions and hopes that her son Zhu Changxun can replace her, and sends a batch of beauties for him to enjoy.

Every day after the retreat of the night banquet, the palace maid plays music and dances. At bedtime, there are often two beautiful women who take turns on the dragon bed

"Miyuki". The originally thin body, where could he afford such a toss, Zhu Changluo finally fell ill.

Concubine Zheng Guifei instructed Cui Wensheng, a close eunuch who was originally waiting by her side, and the current eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch Bingbi and the eunuch in charge of the imperial pharmacy, to let Zhu Changluo take the Tongli medicine - rhubarb, which aggravated his condition, diarrhea thirty or forty times a day and night, and entered a state of collapse.

Later, under the instruction of Concubine Zheng Guifei, Zhu Changluo was asked to take a red pill called the elixir. On the first day of September, Zhu Changluo died.

This Ming Guangzong, who reigned for only one month, became the shortest-lived emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
