These days, Huang Taiji slept very late, and he didn't sleep until three o'clock in the evening (before midnight at night), not to mention the many state affairs, the pressure brought to the Manchu Qing by the Tiance Army also made Huang Taiji dare not relax.

The time of the early dynasty of the Manchu dynasty was set from the time of Huang Taiji, that is, the early dynasty began at the time of Mao (five o'clock in the morning to seven o'clock in the morning), which is the so-called five earlier dynasties. Therefore, the time of Huang Taiji is five o'clock in the morning, and the time of the morning pilgrimage is usually six o'clock, and it lasts until half past eight.

Huang Taiji has been staying overnight in Qingning Palace these days, which is the bedroom of his favorite concubine Bumu Butai, who is later very famous Da Yuer, that is, Concubine Zhuang and Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.

The east room of Qingning Palace is called "Warm Pavilion", Huang Taiji stayed here overnight, three years later in history, that is, in 1643, Huang Taiji "sat upright in the south room of "Warm Pavilion" and died without illness.

"Your Majesty, you have been cleared again, the Qing Dynasty and the concubines need you to take care of the dragon body, you can't work day and night like this." Concubine Zhuang looked at Huang Taiji's gray hair and persuaded.

Huang Taiji pretended to be high-spirited and said: "Concubine Ai is too worried, my health is very good, and there is no problem in living for another ten or twenty years." ”

Concubine Zhuang hurriedly said: "The emperor can't say that, the concubine wishes the emperor long live!" ”

Huang Taiji was overjoyed and said: "Haha, the concubine can speak, and I am very relieved." ”

As the laughter faded away, Huang Taiji set up a seat in the Chongzheng Palace.

Concubine Zhuang sighed, as a pillow person, what is Huang Taiji's physical condition, she knows very well in her heart that in the past year, not only has sex become less and less, but it is also difficult to have fun, which clearly shows that Huang Taiji's health is getting worse and worse.

On the jade chariot, Huang Taiji immediately put away his laughter, his brows furrowed again, and he always maintained his image in front of women, which may be the subconscious effect of every man. There are too many problems faced by the Qing Dynasty, and if you are not careful, there is a danger of overturning, and Huang Taiji is full of sadness.

Whatever you are afraid of, the news of the fall of Gaizhou and the annihilation of the Duoduo army in the direction of Songjin came one after another.

At this time, the gate of Shengjing City is closed, but it is still given priority for emergency military situations.

The closed gate opened, the drawbridge fell, and the fast horses from the Gaizhou front line and Songjin passed through the gate and galloped in the direction of the palace.

"What, what you're saying is true?" After listening to the cries of the two messengers, Huang Taiji couldn't fall down from the dragon chair, he forcibly suppressed a breath of blood in his throat, and asked sharply while holding on to the handle of the dragon chair.

"Your Majesty, what the slave said is true, our army was defeated in Gaizhou, there is not one out of ten of the 160,000 troops, and my father has also been killed, I hope the emperor will deal with it as soon as possible." The one who came to report was Dudu's eldest son, Jing Bel Duerhu.

Sheng Zhong, a member of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, said with tears: "Songjin was defeated, the whole army was annihilated, the southwest barrier of Shengjing was lost, and the chairman of the Tiance Army drove straight into Shengjing, the emperor, the Qing Dynasty is in danger!" ”

The hall was still buzzing and talking about it just now, and now it has completely exploded, and the Hanchen people are panicked and suspicious, and the minister is gritting his teeth, grieving and inexplicable.

"What about Dolgon? What about Zilharang? Where is Dordor now? Huang Taiji shouted angrily, he no longer called the title of Dolgon and others, which shows that he is extremely angry.

Respectfully Belle Durhu said: "The progress of the Tiance army is very fast, our army is defeated too quickly, the scene is extremely chaotic, and the servants do not know the whereabouts of Prince Rui and Prince Zheng. It is also unknown whether he may have been killed in battle or captured by the Tiance Army. ”

Sheng Zhong, who participated in politics, cried bitterly: "If you go back to the emperor, after the defeat of our army, Prince Yu personally led more than 2,000 remnants of the army to reflexively kill back to the battlefield, and now he must have died nine times." ”

"Ahem, ahem!" After coughing violently, Huang Taiji quietly put away the handkerchief with a trace of blood and forced himself to settle down.

The defeat of Gaizhou and Songjin was very complete, and the fall of the Qing Dynasty had entered the countdown, but as the emperor, Huang Taiji had to hold on, and Hu Lao could not fall.

"Your Majesty, Shengjing can't stay for a long time, please ask the emperor to hunt in the north." Fan Wencheng, a scholar of the Inner Secretary Academy, knelt on the ground and shouted.

Most of the Hanchen also reacted and said, "The ministers implore the emperor to hunt in the north." ”

The Manchu ministers all sneered at these Han ministers, the Han people just have a lot of hearts, and retreat is retreat, not to mention going to the north to hunt. But now the situation is already like this, there is only one way to retreat, as long as the emperor is still there, the Manchu Qing will not be destroyed.

The Ministry of Chengzheng Town, Guoqin Min, Gongai Xinjueluo Abai, also came out and said: "Lord Fan's words are reasonable, although the walls of Shengjing City are high and thick, I am afraid that they will not be able to stop the artillery fire of the Tiance Army. Now Prince Li is sitting in Liaoyang, there are still more than 100,000 troops, should be able to resist for a few days, the emperor has a body of ten thousand gold, and the emperor is asked to move north. ”

"The ministers implore the emperor to move north!" The ministers also followed.

Huang Taiji calmed down his depressed mood and said slowly: "Fenggu Mountain Belle Bolo is the king of Gushan County, and he stays in Shengjing. ”

Gushan Belebolo was the third son of Abatai, because of Abatai's embarrassing position among Nurhachi's sons, he had not been reused, and after Abatai was captured and died, the status of Abatai's sons gradually improved.

"The slave must live up to the holy hope and swear to defend Shengjing to the death." Huang Taiji suddenly entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, and Bolo said with an excited look.

"University scholar Fan Wencheng also left the military counsellor, I hope that you civil and military personnel will work together and not disappoint me."

"Minister, Minister!" Fan Wencheng shuddered in his heart.

Shengjing's total strength is not even 30,000, Huang Taiji will definitely take a large number of them, and it is conceivable how many troops can be left. Sheng Jing is now the primary target of the Tiance Army, the situation is dangerous, Fan Wencheng hopes most is to run away, not stay and wait for death.

"The rest of the people are waiting for ......!" Huang Taiji was arranging the evacuation when suddenly there was a "buzz!" in the sky. Voice.

For this sound, the Manchu people are no strangers, and the air reconnaissance of the Tiance Army comes every three or five times. At the beginning, I was worried that the big bird in the sky was going to attack, and I panicked a few times, but the Tiance Army Air Force only conducted routine reconnaissance, and there were no moths, and the Manchu people also went from habit to numbness.

But something was wrong with the sound today, the sound was dull and loud.

Huang Taiji stopped talking and looked at the chief eunuch next to him, who immediately understood and immediately hurried out of the Chongzheng Hall to check in person.

"Buzz!" The sound was getting louder and louder, seemingly coming from all directions, and getting closer.

After a while, the chief eunuch ran in with a rolling belt, and no longer cared about maintaining his demeanor, and shouted in a hissed voice: "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, those big birds are landing towards the palace, I'm afraid it's not good!" ”
