Rush all the way!

After the defeat of Funing, Li Ziyuan, who had led an army of more than 100,000 troops to the east, lost almost all his subordinates overnight, and when he fled from Funing in a hurry, he was only accompanied by a few thousand guards and pro-army.

Defeat is like a mountain!

It wasn't until he arrived in Tongzhou that Li Ziyuan felt a little more at ease, because the guards were all cavalry, and when they arrived in Tongzhou, the tens of thousands of Tang troops stationed in Tongzhou had not yet collapsed, which also made him finally able to take charge of the army again, so that he was a little more at ease.

Although he felt a little at ease, Li Ziyuan was still in turmoil, and countless thoughts were tumbling in his heart, could this be fate?

He thought of Li Zicheng's defeat in Jiashennian, at that time, wasn't Li Zicheng defeated at Shanhaiguan? Now he is the same.

This, this is the number of lives!

Suddenly, Li Ziyuan's whole person became absent-minded, he just sat there silently, no matter what the ministers said, they all looked disheartened, no wonder he was like this, he lost more than 100,000 horses in a battle, and they were all elites in the army, not to mention, more importantly, once upon a time, he thought that he had won the battle, but in the end it was just a dream.

"......, now the Ming army is powerful, and the main force of our army is new, I am afraid that it will definitely lose to the Ming army in the short term, but what the minister is more worried about is that the Ming army will continue to pursue, and our army is in shock, and it is bound to collapse in panic. At least in the short term, it is impossible for our army to engage the enemy again! ”

Zhu Yingsheng's words made all the generals in Tongzhou City shocked, and most of the generals who withdrew from Funing were dead. Although Li Ziyuan also knew that the situation was not good, he did not expect that there would be a result of the collapse of the entire army.

He was silent, he would have regretted his original choice in his heart, if he hadn't been dazzled by the dragon chair, why was this so?

"How about the king please go back to Beijing first?"

Wu Yougong, who is the general of Tongzhou, said on the side.

"The Beijing division has 50,000 elites led by General Sun, and 30,000 infantry under the command of the ministers, if you recruit routs, you should be able to make up 100,000 troops, and if you can hold on to the city, you will definitely be able to defeat the enemy under the city......"

Zhu Yingsheng's heart moved, and he immediately nodded in agreement.

"General Xianming's high opinion is exactly what he wants, and I hope the king will adopt it, the sooner the better."

He turned to Li Ziyuan and continued.

"In fact, the king quickly returned to the Beijing division, is the best choice now, after the king returns to the Beijing division, he can issue an order to dispatch troops and generals, and the decisive battle with the enemy in the Beijing division, the king can rely on the strong city of Beijing, and use the many Hongyi cannons in the city to fight a decisive battle with the Ming army, so, although I dare not say that I will win, but it can also make it suffer heavy losses, so that the army's heart can be stable."

Li Ziyuan still looked like he was bowing his head and saying nothing, he knew that the current situation was very unfavorable, and a little carelessness could be more than lucky. He also understands that returning to Jingshi now may be the best choice, and he should return to Jingshi as soon as possible. But at the same time, he thought that even if he arrived in Beijing, Jingshi was also a dead city, maybe Jingshi was a strong city, but it was also a lonely city, and the lonely city was difficult to defend.

What about fleeing south?

If the Ming army pursues it relentlessly, it will inevitably collapse the whole army and be out of control. It's not a good choice!

Li Ziyuan lowered his head and pondered, but in the silence, he didn't feel anxious in his heart, and he broke out in a cold sweat. He just felt like he was being choked by the throat, and he couldn't breathe at all.

After a long time, Li Ziyuan raised his head, he looked at everyone, hesitated for a moment, and then said.

"The ancients often said" Thirty-six plans, go for the upper plan. "Although this Beijing division is strong, but it is also a dead city, the dead city is difficult to defend, if there are still reinforcements outside, but if there are no reinforcements, defending the city is a dead end, so in the lonely view, this capital can not be held, but it can not be defended, on the one hand, Lone needs to put on a look of sticking to the city, this two, once again letter to the two generals of Ma and Wang, they will immediately withdraw directly into Taiyuan, and after they withdraw to Taiyuan, our army will abandon the city again, and then our army will be divided into three batches, each batch of 20,000 horses, so unaware, ghosts, Quickly evacuate the Beijing division, so that even if the Ming army pursues, our army also has the spare strength to deal with the pursuing soldiers, so that the three-way army can take turns to stop the pursuing troops......"

After Li Ziyuan made this decision, the hall immediately became silent, which may be the best way.

After the generals left, the disheartened Li Ziyuan sat there, and Defu waited on the side, and suddenly, as if he remembered something, he commanded Defu.

"Defu, immediately send someone to Jingshi and tell General Sun to kill Xu Shi'an!"

The reason why Lone is here today is because of that bewitchment, if it weren't for him, how could he end up today?

"The slave knows!"

Knowing that the king was killing people to vent his anger, Defu just nodded, and then he commanded to the outside world.

"Xuemei, you come in and serve the king."

As soon as the words fell, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman came out of the back room, holding a black lacquer tea tray, and walked in with light steps. The woman said tamely as she put the tea on the table.

"Ask the king for tea."

The woman's delicate and silver bell-like voice made Li Ziyuan couldn't help but look up, but this glance made him who was originally upset and couldn't help but be surprised, the woman in front of him looked very much like Liu Ruyi, especially the demeanor between the eyebrows, but she said a North Zhili accent, which was completely different from Liu Ru's crisp and soft Wu Yue accent, but that appearance was like Liu Ru is resurrection.

He couldn't help but look at the woman twice, and a strange longing flashed in those eyes, which had not had the slightest look. His instantaneous expression changed, and naturally fell into Defu's eyes. Defu said softly from the side.

"The king, this is the maid who serves in the palace, and when the servant went to the room today, he saw her, so he asked her to come here to serve the king."

As a slave, Defu has always been a qualified slave, and he has always been anxious about what his master is anxious about, thinking about what his master thinks, even at this time, it is no exception.

"What's your name?"

"The slave's name is Xuemei."

Seeing this woman standing there timidly, although she was not as generous as Liu, her extremely similar appearance made Li Ziyuan a little obsessed for a while, and her timid and shy appearance made him feel a different kind of satisfaction.

If it weren't for the defeat......

How was the defeat?

Lonely is still the king of Tang, and you can also enjoy the wealth of the world! Even if she is a woman in this world, Lone can take it at will!

"Raise your head and let Lone see!"

Seeing Xuemei raise her head, Li Ziyuan looked at the pretty face, and then asked.

"Xuemei, do you have any family at home?"

"Back to the king's words, the slave and maid were sold into the Li Mansion when they were young, and after the king came to Tongzhou, the slave and maid came here to wait on the orders of the master."

Xuemei's answer made Li Ziyuan nod slightly, and secretly screamed in his heart that it was a pity, a woman with such a beautiful appearance like her would have already been taken by the master, if not......

It's just a woman.

"From now on, you will stay here alone and wait, Defu, and take her to the back house!"

As a king, even if he is down, he can decide the life and death of a person with a single word, and he can also decide the fate of ordinary people, not to mention just a slave?

After Xuemei left, Li Ziyuan said that he was confused by the beauty for a while, but then he was still immersed in the shadow of failure, and in the end, he was upset and ordered someone to fry a few dishes, and drank the stuffy wine alone, but forgot the woman who had just been admitted to the room.

And for Xuemei, who was placed in the back house, since she entered the back house, she has been sitting there, sitting on the edge of the bed and waiting, her fingers wringing handkerchiefs from time to time, occasionally sighing, and when she hears the wind and grass outside, she will stand up violently, and finally see no movement, but she just sits there.

I don't know how long she sits, she hasn't slept until the sound of the watch, she doesn't know that it is the third watch.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard someone outside.

"Greetings to the King!"

The king is here!

But at this time, Li Ziyuan was already drunk, and when Xuemei pushed open the door to greet the king, she saw leaning out of the corridor and vomiting. Several eunuchs and maids were waiting.

Li Ziyuan can't remember the last time he drank, today he was really drunk, but at that time, he was drunk, and no one would ask him, but now someone beat his back, someone waited for him to rinse his mouth, and someone brought a wet towel to wipe the dirt around his mouth for him.

In the end, he will wait for him to sleep in bed, which is the difference between the king and ordinary people. In the end, a few maids cleaned up the filth from the house, and when they left the room, Defu stood in front of Xuemei, his eyes staring at Xuemei and said.

"Xuemei, you must know that you are just a slave, and you can get the favor of the king, because you burned high incense in your last life, let the king sleep for a while, and wait until the king wakes up, you have to wait for a good life, if you win the favor of the king and seal the concubine, you will enjoy endless glory and wealth for the rest of your life."

When Xuemei heard this, she hurriedly said.

"It's all the grace of my father-in-law, and Xuemei will never forget her father-in-law's great kindness."

Because he was also a slave and maid, Defu naturally knew what they longed for for slaves and maids, he didn't make a sound, but just glanced at the room and made sure that there were no sharp weapons in this room before he spoke.

"In this case, you are here to wait carefully for the king, this opportunity is for you, whether you can please the king or not, it depends on your ability!"

With that, Defu left the room, and when the door closed, Xuemei's face, which was originally shy and timid, instantly turned cold, and she stood there, her beautiful eyes becoming colder and colder.

"Mother, my daughter can avenge you!"

Standing in the house, Xuemei silently spoke, Xuemei is not her real name, her name is Qian Sunrui, after her mother was killed by Li Ziyuan, she fled all the way to Shanhaiguan, and then fainted on the road with hunger and food, fortunately she was rescued by the Li family, and the master of the Li family and her father are old friends, when the Li family was recuperating, she learned that Li Ziyuan led the army to the east, and when the government recruited maids from major households in Tongzhou, she immediately decided to mix in her thoughts, thinking about waiting for an opportunity to avenge her mother, but she didn't even see him last time.

Fortunately, God blessed, so that the surnamed Li was defeated by King Huai, and after fleeing in a hurry, she had the opportunity to kill him with her own hands and avenge her mother.

Thinking of the mother who was forced to death by the thief, tears slipped down Qian Sunrui's face, and she immediately wiped away her tears vigorously, and then looked back at the back room. She thought in her heart, God forbid, I can't let him wake up, if he does, even if he doesn't hesitate to die, I'm afraid there is no way to kill him!

Although he has studied swordsmanship since he was a child, Qian Sunrui is a woman after all, if that person is sober, he is naturally not his opponent. Thinking of this, she hurriedly latched the door of the hall door, and then she returned to the back room, looked at the bed first, and saw that Li Ziyuan was still asleep, so she was slightly relieved.

Then, Qian Sunrui sat back where she was sitting just now, she looked at the room, there were no sharp weapons, and even when she came, she was searched to make sure that there were no sharp weapons on her body, but for all this, she had already prepared. She sat there, facing the bronze mirror, and removed the hairpin from her head, which was made of bamboo, and one end was very sharp. As she held the hairpin, she suddenly thought of her dead father, but their faces were a little blurred.

Standing up from the chair, Qian Sunrui's face was as pale as earth, and her hands were even trembling slightly, as she walked to the side of the bed. She held the bamboo hairpin tightly in her hand.

At this time, Li Ziyuan, who was lying on the bed, only made a slight snoring sound and was still asleep. And Qian Sunrui was afraid that he would wake up suddenly, and she was also afraid that the guards outside would hear the movement, she knew that she must not delay any longer. But when it came time for her to kill someone, her whole body trembled even more, and even her teeth couldn't stop fighting.

With her hair scattered, she bit her tongue suddenly, and when a bloody smell gushed out of her mouth, she stepped on the pedal next to the bed, looked at Li Ziyuan's throat and stabbed the hairpin in her hand to his throat with all her might. She had practiced swordsmanship, and knew that she had to pierce her throat to kill someone, and with just the hairpin in her hand, she would definitely not be able to do it all at once.

Suddenly stabbed into his throat, and then she pulled out again, pierced again, and when the throat was pierced one after another, Li Ziyuan, who was originally drunk, opened his eyes suddenly, he struggled desperately, and reached out to catch the assassin, but because his throat was pierced, the blood of Ruzhu spurted out from the wound, he could only desperately hold his throat, staring at the woman who was pushed away by him, why did she kill Gu......

"You...... You ......"

When Li Ziyuan clutched his throat and made a squeaky sound, Qian Sunrui, who was afraid that he would not die, clenched the hairpin again and stabbed him in the neck with all his might. Blood poured out from between his fingers, and at last he fell, blood pouring out of his neck. Lying in a pool of blood, he was just twitching helplessly in the pool of blood, and his eyes were slowly losing their lustre, he didn't know why this woman would kill him, and he couldn't understand why he died so much, and died so much......

"Mother, my daughter avenged you......"

Looking at the enemy in the pool of blood, Qian Sunrui muttered to herself, she put down the hairpin in her hand, looked at Li Ziyuan who was twitching in the pool of blood on the ground, tears flowed out of her eyes, she finally avenged her mother!

People are killed, and revenge is taken.

What's next?

What to do after taking revenge?

Qian Sunrui never thought that it would go so smoothly, let alone that she would survive, looking at the corpse on the ground, she hesitated for a moment, because there was no pen in the room, so she could only dip her fingers in the blood, take a deep breath, and then write her name on the white wall of the cave room.

"Murderer Qian Sunrui."

After writing these few words. At this time, the first rooster crow came from a distance, and although it was not yet dawn, after the rooster crow, people began to move around in the courtyard.

We must kill ourselves quickly, and we must not live to be humiliated.

But at this time, Qian Sunrui only felt soreness and weakness, and her arms were trembling uncontrollably, when she held the hairpin to her throat, looking at the blood on it, thinking that the thief's blood would stain herself, she dropped the hairpin.

Then she took off the ribbon from her waist and moved it to a bench, and though her hands trembled, she tied it to the carved crossbar of the door, and tied it into a rope sleeve, and then choked in her heart and said:

"Mother, the child is here!"

Just as her hand was holding the rope, there was a knock at the door.

"King, king, something is wrong......"

The knock on the door made Qian Sunrui, whose hands were trembling, hurriedly put his head in.

"King, King, there's an accident over there in Jingshi......"

Zhu Yingsheng, who was outside the door, heard that there was no sound in the house, and he was so anxious that he immediately ordered Defu on the side.

"Why hasn't the king woken up yet?"

"The King ...... Last Night"

Before Defu could finish speaking, there was a sound of a bench falling to the ground in the room,

"King, King, slam the door open!"

As soon as Zhu Yingsheng gave an order, the attendant over there glanced at Defu, and when he nodded, the two slammed open the wooden door, and as soon as they opened the wooden door, they saw the woman who was hanging, the round stool at the woman's feet was still rolling on the ground, and the person was also struggling there.

"What's going on......

In the next moment, Zhu Yingsheng saw the king lying in a pool of blood in the inner room.

"The King...... King! ”

Seeing the king in a pool of blood, Defu was stupid, he sat down on the ground in horror, looked at Qian Sunrui who was struggling in the rope sleeve and scolded loudly.

"You, you dare to assassinate the king...... Put her down for my father-in-law, and my father-in-law will break her body into thousands of pieces......"

When Li Ziyuan's personal soldiers saw that the king was actually stabbed to death, they wept bitterly and wanted to break the woman's body into thousands of pieces to pay tribute to the king. In the midst of people's cries and anger, Zhu Yingsheng just looked at the corpse on the ground, and there was only one thought left in his heart.

Finished!

It's all over!
