Chapter 229: Swinging the Sword

Chongzhen took Wang Chengen and headed towards Kunning Palace, Kunning Palace was as chaotic as other palaces, and the waiting palace eunuchs had already escaped.

Empress Zhou solemnly welcomed her husband, and Chongzhen looked around and found that Concubine Tian and Concubine Yuan were also there.

"Your Majesty, is the inner city really broken?" Empress Zhou's lips trembled and she asked her husband.

When they saw Chongzhen nodding, the concubines immediately cried.

Looking at his queen, the queen who has respected each other for nearly 20 years, Chongzhen's heart was like a knife, and he couldn't help but cry. Seeing the emperor crying, the concubines cried loudly.

"Queen, the general trend is gone, you are the mother of a country, and you must not be humiliated by thieves!" After crying for a while, Chongzhen put away his tears and said to Queen Zhou with a hard heart.

"The concubine has served His Majesty for eighteen years, and today she died with Sheji, so why do you have any resentment?" Empress Zhou understood what Chongzhen meant, put away her tears, looked at her husband deeply, and walked to the apse.

Looking at the back of Queen Zhou, Chongzhen couldn't help but think of the twilight of the dynasty and twilight that he had gotten along with her for eighteen years, the glue of the two when he first married her, the glue paint between the two when he first married her, and the fact that when she was in the Xinwang Mansion, she read by herself and added fragrance to her red sleeves, and remembered that she was the queen, and in order to save money in the palace, she took the lead in making needlework and sewing dragon robes for herself, and a series of tears rolled down Chongzhen's cheeks.

"Your Majesty, the Empress has hanged herself." After a while, Wang Chengen whispered in Chongzhen's ear.

Chongzhen put away his tears and looked at Tian Guifei and the others with gloomy eyes, "The queen has committed suicide, what are you waiting for?" ”

Tian Guifei stood up, bowed to Chongzhen reservedly, lifted the skirt, and hit the pillar on her side, with a "bang" sound, Tian Guifei was so soft that she was on the ground without saying a word, and red blood gushed out from the top of her head and flowed underground.

"Your Majesty, the concubine, the concubine doesn't want to die." Concubine Yuan was only in her twenties, so frightened that she curled up and sat on the ground, pleading with Chongzhen pitifully.

"Alas, I have to be like this, you are all my women, I don't want to be like the Huiqin Erzong of the former Song Dynasty, where my wife and daughter are humiliated! Since you don't want to kill yourself, let me give you a ride. After Chongzhen finished speaking, he pulled out his sword and walked towards Concubine Yuan.

Looking at the emperor approaching step by step, Concubine Yuan pleaded in horror.

Looking at his woman, Chongzhen hardened his heart, raised the sword fiercely, slashed out with a sword, and then another sword, until Concubine Yuan stopped screaming, and then stopped.

At this moment, Chongzhen's face was covered with blood, and his hideous face frightened the palace ladies in the palace to scream again and again, and they scattered and fled. In the blink of an eye, the people in Kunning Palace went to the empty palace, and only Wang Chengen followed behind Chongzhen.

The queen committed suicide and killed all the concubines, Chongzhen suddenly sounded her daughter, no, I must not let my daughter be humiliated by thieves, she is the princess of my Ming Dynasty, the most noble person in the world, I would rather die than let them be insulted like this!

"Where's Kunxing?" Chongzhen turned his head and asked Wang Chengen coldly.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess, she has never been out of Shouning Palace since she was ordered to think about it behind closed doors." Wang Chengen said softly.

"Good boy, really good boy." Chongzhen muttered to himself, carrying his sword and heading towards Shouning Palace.

Looking at the emperor, who had fallen into a state of madness, Wang Chengen sighed and trotted over. He has served the emperor all the year round, and it has become a habit to follow Chongzhen, even if the Jingshi has fallen now, even if the palace will be attacked by thieves in an instant, even if he follows Chongzhen to death......

From Kunning Palace to Shouning Palace, where Princess Kunxing lived, passing through Zhaoren Hall in the middle, Chongzhen saw his six-year-old daughter Princess Zhaoren crying and running towards him, Chongzhen gritted his teeth and slashed with a sword, and poor Princess Zhaoren fell to the ground before she could get close to her father's body, and blood flowed.

Killing his young daughter, Chongzhen's heart was already numb, he carried the sword, walked like flying, and went straight to Shouning Palace.

Princess Kunxing sat in front of the dresser in a daze, looking at herself in the mirror, deaf to the rumbling cannons outside, and the personal palace maid Que Er stood by her side with a worried face.

Since the private meeting with Chen Yue a few years ago, it was exposed by the imperial historians, as evidence of the crime of attacking Chen Yue, which made Chongzhen Longyan furious, and since then Kun Xing has been strictly grounded, and he has never taken a step out of Shouning Palace.

A young girl, confined in this small Shouning Palace, can only look at the sky above her head every day, count the ants under the tree, how boring and boring the days are.

But Princess Kunxing knew that she couldn't make her father angry anymore, because the Ming Dynasty had bent her father's waist and made her father Huafa born early.

Since my father doesn't let me leave the palace, let's not go out, anyway, Chen Yue is not in Beijing, even if he goes out, what can he do?

When he was bored, Kun Xing read books to relieve his boredom, and instructed the palace maids to go to the royal study to find some idle books, and he had read a lot of books in the past few months.

But now, listening to the sound of cannons and fighting faintly outside the palace, she can no longer read quietly.

The thieves had already attacked, and just now, the eunuch in the palace told her that the thieves had entered the inner city, and made her want to flee for her life.

However, the eunuchs and palace ladies can escape, and no one will pay attention to them, but where can I go? This palace is my home!

Kun Xing is reluctant to go, there is another reason, that is, in her heart, there is still a faint fantasy that there will be a person wearing white armor, riding a white horse, and coming with thousands of troops and horses, to rescue herself, her father, and the Ming Dynasty!

There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the hall, and Princess Kunxing turned her head to look, and saw her father, Emperor Chongzhen, carrying a bloody sword, and breaking in with red eyes.

"Father!" Kun Xing stood up in surprise and greeted Chongzhen, "Father, you look like this? ”

Looking at his slim daughter, Chongzhen's crazy mind cleared up a little, this is his favorite daughter, the pearl of his palm, if he has a choice, how can he bear to destroy her?

"Child, it's strange that you were born in the emperor's family!" Chongzhen sighed and was about to swing the sword in his hand.

"Princess!" The finch screamed and flew in front of Kun Xing, the sharp sword slashed across the finch and back, and the blood gushed out like a spring.

"Sparrows!" Kun Xing hugged the finch's body, and saw the finch's mouth muttering something to say, and when he wanted to listen carefully, the finch's head tilted and stopped moving.

"Father, why?" Kun Xing put down the corpse of the finch and shouted angrily at his father.

"Child, the inner city has been broken, and the thieves will soon attack the palace, I can't leave you to be humiliated by the thieves, and I can't lose my royal face. Don't be afraid, child, just take a look, it doesn't hurt! Chongzhen comforted his daughter softly.

In an instant, Kun Xing understood his father's intentions, nodded heavily, and closed his eyes.

Looking at his daughter's delicate face, Chongzhen hardened his heart and slashed down with a sword!
