Chapter 3 Just because I took one more look at you in the crowd

If it was other governors, Yang Qing really couldn't believe it, but Wang Chengen would have no problem.

This is the only one who is loyal to Chongzhen.

Don't think that the great eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty are really loyal to Chongzhen, surrender to Li Zicheng's governor, and the prison army is a lot!

Although there are still doubts about whether Cao Huachun opened the door to meet the enemy, after all, he has been retired for several years, and theoretically he should not be in Beijing at this time, but a large number of historical books have repeatedly recorded that he was in Beijing at this time and was an important person, so many people can't frame him, so it is not excluded that he was specially recruited by Chongzhen, after all, he is also a veteran, and it is not surprising that Chongzhen rushed to the doctor to find him.

Among the other big eunuchs, Wang Zhixin, Wang Huamin, and Du Zhizhi did not play any good roles, and they all knelt down to the king very happily.

That's why there is an extremely funny scene in front of the noon gate......

The great eunuch Wang Dehua went out of the noon gate after meeting Li Zicheng in the court, and happened to meet Zhang Jinyan, the secretary of the military department who was waiting for appointment.

"Are you still there? National events and Your Excellency Wei are bad! ”

Wang Dehua scolded.

After speaking, he asked his entourage to slap Zhang Jinyan.

As a result, Zhang Shangshu was beaten and cried.

And next to Zhang Shangshu is His Excellency Wei, that is, he just said to Li Zicheng that His Majesty is pardoning the ministers, and he should be the first assistant of the cabinet who is brave and loyal to repay him, in fact, Wei Zaode, the most trusted champion of Chongzhen, after he shouted the above words, Li Zicheng, who was disgusted, directly threw him to Liu Zongmin and imprisoned him, but he was still lying on the window and shouting that if you use me, no matter what official you are, but why imprison me?

At this moment, Wei Zhuangyuan hurriedly stepped forward to rescue.

"Mr. Wei, why is he so good?"

Wang Dehua scolded him together.

Gu Junen, a close adviser of Li Zicheng who was sitting on the wall of the Wumen Gate above their heads, had seen enough of the monkey drama and said with a smile: "Is this Wei Zhuangyuan?" ”

Wei Zaode's face flushed.

"This is the prime minister of Tejian (unusually promoted), (to the ancestors) a lot of glory!"

Gu Junen said.

The subordinates around Li Zicheng all smiled happily.

However, it needs to be explained that Wang Dehua, who looks righteous, was the one who opened the Desheng Gate to let the Shun army into the city, and he made meritorious contributions to Li Zicheng, and it was precisely because of this that he dared to be arrogant.

Therefore, in this great drama that can be called the end of the season, the eunuchs are not better than the civil officials, in fact, no one is more loyal than anyone, the civil officials, military attachés, eunuchs, brocade guards, and nobles are all the same. Civil officials are indeed known for their shamelessness, but there are also a large number of martyrs for Chongzhen, such as Zhou Fengxiang, the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, who went back after watching the above farce and wrote that the Blue Blood Nine Plains were based on the Holy Lord, and the white-headed two elders looked at the loyal soul, and then committed suicide. There are indeed eunuchs like Wang Chengen who are with Chongzhen's life and death, but there are also a lot of people who sell him without discipline, and Yang Qing will not really be naïve enough to believe in the loyalty of any eunuchs, unless Wang Chengen does not need to doubt it.

However......

"Lao Wang is not doing things well!"

He stood speechlessly in front of the gate of the Qianqing Palace, looking at all kinds of people coming in and out.

He had been waiting for a long time, in fact, it should be the second half of the night at this time, but it was a cloudy day, and it was difficult to tell the specific time, but the news that the Shun army had broken through the Xuanwu Gate had already come.

It was actually opened by the eunuch Wang Xiangyao.

This means that the inner city has been breached.

During this time, there were eunuchs who hurriedly ran in to report the military situation or came out with a holy decree, it is estimated that Chongzhen was dying and struggling, but this was meaningless, all the civil and military officials outside abandoned him, and when Yang Qing came in, he met the last group to enter the palace, and after them, no officials entered the palace. Originally, the eunuch who sent the holy decree to the cabinet in history found that there was no one there, so he put the holy decree on the table and left, and his order to the army was to the Duke of Chengguo Zhu Chunchen, who was turned away from him later in person, who originally surrendered to Li Zicheng, but was accidentally found out of this holy decree that allowed him to supervise the military inside and outside, and then Li Zicheng avenged Chongzhen.

There are even eunuchs carrying food boxes in, presumably at the last supper.

Yang Qing was in front of the Qianqing Gate like looking at an old man in a dying state, looking at the last moments of the Chongzhen Dynasty.

But he never waited for news of his summons.

Yang Qing was entangled for a moment.

With his character, he wants to go straight in, but with Chongzhen's stinky and hard temper, it will indeed be bad if he does this, and he is not a cronie, just a captain of the brocade guard, and Chongzhen's only reaction to breaking in is probably to ask the guards to give him a random gun, and he will not give him a chance to speak at all. It is said that there is a group of armed eunuchs around Chongzhen, he is indeed superior in force, but he can't bear the bullets, it's hard to say whether he can see Chongzhen if he breaks in, and he has to risk his life, so he might as well go in with Wang Chengen just now, he should have been deceived by Lao Wang.

But he can't just wait!

Looking at the palace maids and eunuchs who had begun to flee around him, he gritted his teeth and struggled.

It's not impossible to give up.

After all, he has a backup option.

He can also switch to Li Zicheng, although he has just killed several Shun troops, but he has also shown his value, Li Zicheng will not give up a fierce general, and then try to help the latter win the battle of Shanhaiguan, in the final analysis, helping Chongzhen is not the only choice, but this path is more difficult, it is a big melee of hundreds of thousands of people, and the role of a fierce general is very limited.

He looked at the brightly lit Qianqing Palace inside the gate with confusion.

However, at this moment, a strange brilliance suddenly illuminated his vision.

Then he gasped.

Not far from him, a beautiful girl who didn't look very old was looking at him curiously with a pair of beautiful eyes, dressed in palace clothes, in the dim light, against the palace wall at night, like a blooming tulip in the dark night, with the kind of innate elegance and nobility that seemed to be innate to dispel the blood that permeated this special moment.

She's so beautiful, so beautiful that it makes my heart palpitate.

At this moment, all Yang Qing could think of was the four words "Alluring the country and the city".

Especially the gorgeous palace dress sets off her face, which makes the word national color Tianxiang also very appropriate.

In Yang Qing's scorching gaze, she lowered her head shyly, and then walked into the Qianqing Gate surrounded by several palace maids, just when she was about to hide in the dark, she suddenly looked back, Yang Qing subconsciously raised her hand, but at this time, the drizzle fell in the sky, and a palace maid hurriedly opened the bamboo umbrella, and then her shadow was blocked by the palace maid, and soon walked down the steps inside the door and could not be seen.

"Who's that?"

Yang Qing grabbed a little eunuch who ran away and asked impatiently.

"Where did ...... come from?"

The little eunuch shouted angrily.

But his angry shouting came to an abrupt end with Yang Qing's action of lifting him, and he was raised by the latter's one hand, and then he was replaced with a flattering smile, and Yang Qing also smiled and put him down.

"Excuse me, father-in-law, who is that woman?"

Yang Qing asked again with a pleasant face.

"The general doesn't even recognize Princess Kunxing?"

The little eunuch said.

"Princess Kunxing? Isn't it Princess Changping? ”

Yang Qing was stunned.

"Changping? Our Daming has never had Princess Changping, the three daughters have titles, Princess Kunyi has died a long time ago, and then the two princesses Kunxing and Zhaoren, Princess Zhaoren is only five years old! ”

The little eunuch said.

Yang Qing was stunned for a moment......

"Princess, don't go in!"

He suddenly screamed, and then rushed straight to the Qianqing door.

"Bold!"

With an angry shout, the armed eunuch guarding the door immediately raised his arquebus.

Yang Qing immediately stopped and raised his hands, looking motionless ahead.

In front of the Qianqing Gate and on the white marble railings on both sides, at least twenty arquebuses were aiming at him, and several of them had quickly lit the arquebuses, others were also lighting the arquebuses, he raised his hand for a calm smile, and then slowly stepped back.

The armed eunuchs maintained an aiming posture and watched him retreat.

Yang Qing has been withdrawing thirty meters, smiled and waved goodbye, turned to the right with a standard and suddenly started to run wildly, saying that there is not only this door when entering the Qianqing Palace, but the eunuchs who delivered food just now walked through a small gate not far away. Under the puzzled gaze of those armed eunuchs, Yang Qing, who had been running dozens of meters, immediately rushed into the small door where they couldn't see, and continued along a road, and soon a side door appeared on his left, but this door was closed, and he bumped it with all his strength but didn't open it.

If you can't hit it, you can climb.

He then exited the porch, but found that the wall was also very difficult to climb, after all, people did not consider letting him climb when they designed it, but fortunately, his jumping ability is not what it used to be, after a period of retreat, after more than ten meters of running, he was accompanied by a loud roar, jumping with all his strength to make him rise more than three meters high. In mid-air, his hands immediately hugged the protruding eaves on one side, and the solid wood easily supported his weight, and then with the same strength he climbed up with ease, stepping on the tiles and continuing upwards to the top.

The grand Qianqing Palace, which can be called a whole picture, was immediately displayed in front of him.

But it's a pity that Princess Kunxing is gone.

He ran down a few steps and jumped to the ground, and then ran towards the Qianqing Palace at full speed, and soon rushed up the steps to the pedestal, and at the same time a group of armed eunuchs also rushed over with knives, and a woman's scream suddenly came from the main hall of the Qianqing Palace with the door closed behind them. Yang Qing had nothing in his mind in an instant, he didn't even look at the armed eunuchs with knives, he crashed straight over like an angry bull, knocking the two eunuchs who were blocking him away at once, and then he slammed open the gate of the Qianqing Palace again.

Immediately afterwards, a man holding a sword, wearing a red dragon robe, and wearing a winged crown on his head appeared in his field of vision.

Obviously, this is His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Chongzhen looked at Yang Qing suspiciously.

And at his feet was Princess Kunxing, but her left arm was already red with blood.

Yang Qing's eyes were blood-red and rushed straight in, and before those eunuchs could react, they knocked Chongzhen away with one shoulder, picked up Princess Kunxing in Wang Chengen's frightened gaze, tore off her sleeves, and quickly began to bandage her wounds in her blank gaze......
