Chapter 567. Dinghu abandoned the world that day
The Ming Dynasty raised a group of guys for three hundred years.
With the most elite Imperial Horse Supervisor Warrior Battalion in Beijing, he also shouted five and six during the day, the first time Wu Sangui blew up the Guangqu Gate, Wang Dehua ran away, and Zhao Tiqian, who ran, didn't react, almost didn't fall in, and ran out with a reluctance on his back.
Embarrassed to escape to Desheng Gate, so the last elite soldiers with combat effectiveness in the Ming Dynasty were almost scattered by him, looking back at the remaining hundreds of remnants of the defeated generals, Wang Dehua is kneeling and crying, kowtowing a few times in the direction of the Forbidden City, turning around, and surrendering to Liu Xiyao, the general of Guoyi, who had caught up.
Immediately after Xuanwu Gate guarding the city eunuch Wang Xiangyao, Qihua Gate Chengguo Gong Zhu Chunchen also surrendered the city one after another, the inner city gate of the Beijing Division was also opened for the Dashun Cave, about eight or nine o'clock in the Shun army into the city, at eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, has arrived at the Zhengyang Gate.
What's even more ironic is that this head entered the palace overnight, and Zhang Jinyan, the secretary of the military department who was dedicated to planning for the country, didn't even have a decent organization to resist, and directly held the official seal at the gate of the city to offer the door, and the hundreds of thousands of Beijing battalions were wiped out and surrendered to the enemy without even two hours on the top.
Unlike in history, at that time, Chongzhen was desperate all the way to the end, and he didn't see a glimmer of hope at all, but this time it was really a disaster, and he was still thinking about who to use to divide Wu Sangui's power in the Linfu Palace.
Standing at the main gate of the inner palace of the Qianqing Gate to look out of the palace, the eyes are full of bright firelight, not only in the Jingshi City, even the front palace is in chaos, the Han general Jinyi Wei who originally kept the order and did not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool ran around like ants on the hot pot, and even the eunuchs dared to take advantage of the fire to rob, set fire to the palace and looted it, tore it off with the colored silk decorated with beams and pillars as a burden, and fled to the palace in a hurry with a thick blanket on his back.
The cry of the palace maid, the crackling sound of the front court hall in the strong wind, and the sparks that were blown up floated to the sky in a string, Chongzhen who saw this scene was shocked and angry, his face was full of blood, but he couldn't speak for a long time, and finally vomited a mouthful of blood alive, and his face instantly turned from red to white, and Chongzhen screamed out extremely sadly.
"Wu Sangui mistakenly! Zhang Jinyan mistakenly! All the ministers are mistaken! ”
"Your Majesty, be careful of the dragon body! Watch out for the dragon body!"
Seeing that he staggered and almost didn't fall off the city wall, he was also frightened and turned pale, Wang Chengen, who was the most loyal internal official, was in a hurry to help him, who knew that Chongzhen, who was weak on weekdays, suddenly had a surprisingly strong strength at this time, and he had just reached Chongzhen's sleeve, and the emperor slammed his sleeve, not only throwing him off, but also breaking one of the sleeves of his dragon robe.
I don't know if the people's hearts were scattered in the last years of the dynasty, and the palace maid didn't have a good hairpin for the emperor, this time, Chongzhen's hair tied on his head also spread out all of a sudden, and his cloak was scattered and his clothes were shabby, and Chongzhen staggered down the city wall like he lost his soul.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
For fear that something would happen, holding the half of the sleeve, Wang Chengen followed behind and yelled and swayed and didn't pass, seeing that the emperor and the big eunuch were running down in a hurry, and several little eunuchs were also carrying robes and wanted to follow, who knew that in the end, the little eunuch suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed the neck collar of the two companions in front of him and pulled it back violently, the hurried eyes of the three people met, and then left the small group, went against the grain, and fled to the shadows in a hurry.
The hearts of men have been completely scattered!
…………
Those who become big should not give up until the last moment, just like Ishida Mitsunari who was on the defeated side of the Battle of Sekigahara in Japan, even if he was beheaded by Tokugawa Ieyasu a few hours ago, he was thirsty and begged for water, but he refused to escort the samurai to find dates for him to quench his thirst, just because the dates produce phlegm, even at the last moment, he took good care of his body. Emperor Chongzhen still retained some of these qualities, and shook back to the Qianqing Palace in despair, just sitting on the cold dragon chair, he also started the last dying struggle for himself.
"Spread the holy decree, transfer Li Guozhen, the commander of the Beijing battalion, and Gong Yonggu, the commander of the horses, to escort him!"
"The old slave obeys!"
Wheezing violently, his eyes looked straight outside, and he stumbled at a word, Chongzhen waved his hand outward, no matter what, it's good that the leader still has something to do, just stumbling to follow up, Wang Chengen nodded immediately, and didn't care if he was full or not, turned around and ran out again.
Loner! As soon as Wang Chengen left, in the entire palace, Emperor Chongzhen was left alone, and the shouting and chaos outside became more and more complicated, and the imminent breath of death was suppressed in Chongzhen's heart like a mountain, so that on his forehead, on his body, beads of sweat flowed out like rain.
"No! Da Ming can't die! I can't die at my hands! I still have to govern the country! That's right, govern the country, and approve the excerpts!"
If you don't do something, you'll have to go crazy, it's the eunuchs who do it on weekdays, the first time, Emperor Chongzhen himself staggered down from the dragon chair and tossed in the apse, not to mention, it really made him tumble a lot.
Maybe here,Basically was detained by the celebrant from the cabinet to deliver the compromises,On weekdays,Every one is able to provoke his anger,Open the first chapter,It's the Taiyuan prefect's request for help,Taiyuan has already fallen,Immediately was thrown aside by Chongzhen,The next chapter is the Xiangyang prefect's impeachment of Zuo Liangyu's plunder,The country is the time to employ people,Immediately with an ink pen to make a big cross,It was also thrown aside by Chongzhen,The third chapter,But it was a Taihu Lake flood,Asking for tax cuts。
Seven or eight books, there is no good play, just when Chongzhen was angry and knocked over the pile of music on the ground, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps at the door, his expression was tight, and with a bang, Chongzhen suddenly pulled out a spare Shang Fang sword from the back wall of the hall.
Under his nervous gaze, it was Wang Chengen, who was sweating profusely, who ran in dejectedly.
"......The emperor, the emperor, the big thing is not good! Li Guozhen, the commander of the Beijing camp, surrendered, surrendered the thief! Gong Yonggu, the commander of the horses, does not know his whereabouts, and the palace is already in chaos! ”
"Your Majesty, this place is no longer a place to stay for a long time, please ...... Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
With a bang, the sharp Shang Fang sword slammed on the ground, and Chongzhen also sat on the ground with a limp ass, letting Wang Chengen shout on the side for a long time, he didn't come back to his senses.
"Jingshi, really, really lost?"
finally muttered a word, and Wang Chengen, who listened to it, couldn't help but tremble, but he was silent.
"Go, pass on the prince, King Yong will come to Kunning Palace to see me!"
His eyes suddenly became extremely terrifying, he pushed Wang Chengen away, his arms trembled, and Chongzhen reached out again to pick up the Shang Fang sword that fell to the ground, and shook it and walked towards the harem.
Looking at Chongzhen's back stupidly, and gritting his teeth, Wang Chengen ran outside again.
The sudden chaos also disrupted the order of the harem, and the once high-ranking master and concubine also became eclipsed, from the beginning of the chaos, these concubines fled to Kunning Palace one after another, but they didn't know that they had fled into an abyss of death.
The sound of the iron dragging came, and every time it was drawn on the hearts of people hiding in the main hall of Kunning Palace, the left hand pinched the corner of the skirt, and the right hand of Queen Zhou was pinching a broken piece of porcelain bowl, pinching so hard, the sharp edge drew red blood on her hand that was no longer delicate, and she was still more than that. Holding his sister Princess Zhaoren with fear, Changping also looked at the door with chattering teeth, and the few eunuchs guarding the door were even more trembling.
With a bang, the door of the palace was kicked open directly, and the momentum of showing off his teeth and claws on weekdays did not know where he was thrown, and the eunuch with a big stick turned out to be hula, and they all fled backwards, but they only escaped two steps, and a little eunuch who turned back suddenly shouted in surprise and surprise.
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty!"
As soon as her heart was relieved, tears flowed down instantly, and with her skirt lifted, Queen Zhou hurriedly greeted her.
"Your Majesty, are you alright? How is the war in Beijing, and what about the elders? Does the military department have any countermeasures? ”
Looking at her frightened face, Chongzhen didn't even have a romantic hug like in TV, just looked around with a wooden look, followed by Queen Zhou, and those concubines and nobles also cried and pounced and fell to the ground.
"Your Majesty!"
shouted several times in a row, which finally woke up Chongzhen, who was almost demonic, to his senses, but his next sentence was extremely cruel.
"Zitong! Zhengyangmen has been lost, and the thieves are about to enter the palace, you are the queen of the Ming Dynasty, and you should respect your identity!"
Staggered a step in disbelief, hot tears were cold in her eyes, and there was silence for a while, and Queen Zhou nodded emphatically.
"The concubine body understands!"
In the frightened looks of those concubines, Queen Zhou finally poured a blessing on Chongzhen's skirt, and immediately staggered towards the dormitory, a moment later, there was a sound of a stool falling to the ground, and then the creaking sound of a heavy object hanging on the beam came out suddenly, and finally, Chongzhen's already vicious and numb face slightly appeared a little sadness.
But in an instant, this sorrow was replaced by cruelty, and he roared violently at the frightened concubines.
"The country is gone! The death of the country is imminent! You are all nobles of my Ming royal family, don't do anything that is sorry for your identity, the queen has gone, you all go to self-determination! Just go! Go quickly!"
Yuan Guifei knelt on the ground in horror and kept kowtowing, but a few frightened young concubines and nobles couldn't suppress their fear, turned around and wanted to flee outside the hall, they were really crazy, followed behind, Chongzhen brandished Shang Fang's sword, and slashed it without mercy, and in the clicking sound, the sacred Kunning Palace was covered with blood for a moment.
"Father!"
The frightened scream, even if his heart was as hard as iron, this sword was not cut down, looking at his youngest daughter Princess Zhaoren looking at him, his eyes were full of fear and tears, even Chongzhen's hands couldn't help but tremble, and the corners of his eyes finally slowly became moist, trembling and holding the bloody sword, the emperor let out a terrible scream like a beast.
"Thou hast given birth to my family! Thou hast given birth to my family!!"
Puff~
………………
The hanging concubine still had her last breath left, fluttering on the beam, on the ground, the corpses were lying in a pool of blood, in the middle, a five or six-year-old girl opened her eyes widely, blazing blood flowed out of her chest, the bloody sword was thrown aside, and Chongzhen himself was also panting violently.
After a long time, he turned his head hoarsely and commanded the little eunuchs who looked stupid.
"Spread my will, go to Cining Palace, and tell the imperial sister-in-law that the thief army is about to enter the palace! The imperial sister-in-law understands the righteousness and will know how to do it!"
"The minions obey! Slaves obey!"
Kowtowed in fear, and then a few little eunuchs ran to the harem desperately, and gave this last order to kill people, Emperor Chongzhen slowly stood up, turned around, and his eyes fell on the hall.
The snow-white palace skirt was stained with a large patch of blood, and a large amount of blood was also splashed on the face, which was the younger sister Zhaoren's, fear filled the entire pupil, and Princess Zhu Yujun of Changping sat in a pool of blood in a daze, behind the corpse of Princess Zhaoren.
Seeing her father walking towards her, she was obviously frightened, but her slender legs were weak and couldn't stand up, her hands were holding on to the blood, she was afraid and wanted to crawl backwards, but her hand slipped, and the whole person collapsed in a pool of blood.
Seeing this scene, Chongzhen stinged again and shook his head heavily.
"You don't understand, it's really ...... for them to kill them, it's really for their good ......, and it's hard for you to keep you!"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Just when Changping was frightened, there was a sudden shouting sound outside the hall, once again, Wang Chengen completed this almost impossible task, and brought back the prince, Yongwang, and Dingwang who were reading at night in Chunfang, and several small princes were also running out of breath, and broke into the hall one after another, just about to shout for his father, but he was immediately stunned by the bloody scene in front of him.
"Father, this ......"
"There's no time!"
It was still Wang Chengen, who didn't even shout and shouted, dragged a few little eunuchs from there, turned out a few sets of clothes from the side hall where the subordinates lived, and replaced all the royal robes and dragon clothes on several princes.
Personally fastened the buttons for his son's clumsy hands, his eyes showed incomparable melancholy, staring at the four children, Chongzhen was full of sadness.
Wait for the prince today, and the king is a small people, so let's escape! You don't have to love me, you will die in the community, what face is there to see your ancestors underground? You must be cautious and careful, if you meet an official, the old man should be called the master, and the young man should be called the prince; If you meet civilians, the old man is called Daddy, the young man is called Brother, or Brother, the literati are called Mr., the soldier is called the head of the household, or the chief, be cautious and wisely protect yourself!"
"Don't forget your identity as a heavenly family! Don't forget the enmity of your parents!"
"Changping, you go to Liaodong, circulate around Mao Liao, and you can't forget the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty!"
"Let's go!"
Raising his head, watching the messy lights getting closer and closer, he finally pushed hard, pushing a few frightened children away from his side, and Chongzhen immediately waved at those loyal eunuchs who refused to flee for their lives.
"Send the crown prince Yongwang to the Guozhang Mansion, and send the princess to the Jiguo Mansion! Go quickly!"
"Slaves obey!"
It was also the last time to glance at the emperor under the Kunning Palace, and several chamberlains or brocade guards were holding a child in their arms, and fled in the direction of the imperial garden.
"Your Majesty!"
There were two left, Wang Chengen and Chongzhen, and this loyal old eunuch trembled heavily. At this time, Chongzhen had recovered a lot from the panic of the fall of the city at the beginning, and listening to this helpless exchange, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Companion, help me study ink!"
"The old slave obeys!"
…………
It seems that there is still one last awe of the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty, or he wants to take over a complete palace, surprisingly, Li Zicheng only controlled the palace gates to restrain the soldiers and horses, and did not rush to occupy the entire palace.
The night's bloodshed and chaos gradually died out as the sun rose, but just as everything was about to fall silent, a desolate bell buzzed from the depths of the palace.
Jingyang Bell, since Chengzu Yongle moved the capital to Beijing, for 250 years, the bell rang and hundreds of officials saw each other, and those who did not ring the bell, regardless of the size of the official position, were all guilty! It represents the supreme imperial power of the Ming Dynasty, but on this special day, this big bell has also lost its authority, and it is just a little desolate.
Standing on the Jingyang Tower, he personally struck the bell forty-nine times, pulling his throat, and Emperor Chongzhen roared extremely poignantly.
"Went up to the !!"
In the past, the Tai Chi Dao where officials surged was empty, only some sundries discarded by the eunuchs and palace maids who fled from chaos.
This last wish to accept a hundred officials to see the court without sight, lost his soul, from Jingyang upstairs down, staggering, Emperor Chongzhen shook and went straight to the back of the palace Coal Mountain, full of helplessness, holding a whisk, Wang Chengen is like serving Emperor Chongzhen on weekdays, unhurriedly following behind, the pace is as fast as flying.
Faintly, the tragic whispers could still be heard in the palace.
Dead country! Lost country!!
