The weather in May is already hot, but what is even hotter is the enthusiasm of the people of Nanjing.

The news of Linqing's great victory reached Nanjing through the post road, and the entire government and the opposition suddenly boiled.

Linqing won a great victory and annihilated 50,000 of the Eight Banners Army!

Linqing won a great victory, and the Manchu Dolgon vomited blood and fled!

Linqing won a great victory, Shandong Province was recovered, the King of Qi waved his troops north, the forward arrived in Tianjin, and the recovery of the Beijing division was just around the corner.

As soon as the news came, the entire city of Nanjing was boiling.

For many years, in the face of the Manchurian Eight Banners, he has been defeated repeatedly;

For many years, the Ming army lost the city and land, and it was on the verge of extinction. Even if the king of Qi, Chen Yue, Yangzhou and Wuhu annihilated the Qing soldiers in the two battles, the situation of the Ming Dynasty did not improve.

And now, with the victory of Linqing, the last main force of the Eight Banners has been lost, indicating that the fall of the Ming Xing and Qing Dynasty is irreversible.

It's not good to be full, how long can the thief and the thief jump around?

Daming Zhongxing is in sight!

If you say that the place that cares most about politics and national fortunes, it is the city of Nanjing.

Nanjing is where the Ming court is located, with thousands of officials, tens of thousands of officials, hundreds of thousands of troops, and the rest of the people also have such and such connections with the court and the army.

More than one million people in Nanjing are most closely related to the Ming Dynasty, and if the Ming Dynasty is good, they will have a good life, and if the Ming Dynasty dies, they will fall into an extremely miserable situation like the nearly one million people in Beijing.

Therefore, the people who most hope that the Ming army will win the Ming Dynasty are none other than the people of Nanjing.

On the day the news came, firecrackers rang off in Nanjing for a day, all the shops sold out of alcohol, and the whole city celebrated the victory of the Northern Expeditionary Army.

Above the court, many officials originally complained about the Northern Expedition, and there were many people who asked to stop the troops. Some time ago, the news that the Shun army went east to attack Luoyang frightened many people. Many officials went to the imperial court to stop the Northern Expedition and exterminate the thieves first.

In fact, in order to supply the Northern Expeditionary Army, the treasury of the imperial court had been emptied, and even the silver raised by selling land was exhausted, and the household department had to borrow from the large households in the south of the Yangtze River in order to maintain the use of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the front line. Therefore, the call for stopping the army was very high, and even the first assistant Shi Kefa was also a little shaken.

Now, with a great victory, the opposition has completely disappeared, and the entire court is jubilant and has come to congratulate them.

In the palace, Princess Kunxing was in a very happy mood, and came to the Qianqing Palace where Chongzhen lived with Chen Yue's retribution.

After Emperor Chongzhen suffered a stroke, he got much better under the treatment of the imperial doctor, but now he still can't speak or walk, but he has become conscious.

After a long period of hard work, Chongzhen's body is extremely weak, and he is in his forties and is the same as an old man who is about to die in his sixties and seventies, but these days he is bedridden and recuperates, and he does not need to work on state affairs, so he has fattened his body a little.

However, looking at her father's inability to speak, Princess Kunxing still often shed tears.

When Princess Kunxing came in, Chongzhen was being carried by two eunuchs to practice walking, and according to the instructions of the imperial doctor, active practice can keep the limbs alive, and maybe there is hope for recovery. After all, Chongzhen's age is not too big, and there is a great possibility of recovery.

Seeing the princess of the prison country come in, the eunuchs in the palace hurriedly knelt down and saluted, Kun Xing waved his hand, and the two eunuchs put Chongzhen on the chair and gently exited the room with the other eunuchs and palace maids.

"Erchen has seen his father." Even if Chongzhen couldn't speak, Kun Xing still saluted in a regular manner.

Standing up, Kunxing's face was full of joy.

"Father, my son has come to tell you good news today, and you must be happy to hear it." Kun Xing pursed his lips and smiled.

"Oh oh..." Chongzhen looked at Princess Kunxing, and let out a sound that didn't know what to mean, and he was already able to understand Kunxing's words.

"What's the good news? Father, you want to hear it, right," Kun Xing pursed his lips and smiled, "Tell you, you listen well, don't be happy."

Just today, after receiving the good news from Linqing, Chen Yue, the king of Qi, commanded the army and the Qing army in a decisive battle, annihilating the 50,000 Eight Banners Army in one fell swoop, and the Mongolian cavalry was also persuaded to abandon the Manchu Dynasty, and the remaining 10,000 Eight Banners cavalry fled back to Beijing in embarrassment. ”

Kun Xing said while observing Chongzhen's expression, and sure enough, when he heard the annihilation of the 50,000 Eight Banners, Chongzhen's expression became excited, and the voice from his mouth became louder.

"I'll just say that you must be happy to hear it, father." Princess Kunxing smiled and said, "Think about it, how many are the total number of Manchu Eight Banner soldiers?" After the failure of the Southern Expedition, the total strength of the Eight Banners was not 100,000, and now 50,000 were annihilated in the First World War, which is already half of their men, and it is their most elite army.

So, father, the Manchu Qing Dynasty is over, and Chen Yue, the king of Qi, is preparing to lead an army to attack Beijing, and the recovery of Beijing is just around the corner.

Father, three years ago, Beijing fell, and we fled to Nanjing under the protection of Chen Yue, did you ever think that we would be able to fight back so quickly? Anyway, I didn't expect it, it's like a dream. ”

Princess Kunxing muttered, tears welling up in her eyes.

Chongzhen suddenly closed his mouth, no longer making a whoop sound, but sat quietly with his eyes closed.

Kun Xing muttered, talking about Chen Yue's exploits and his excitement. After three years in the south, today is her happiest time. In the past few days of being in prison, she has been trembling on thin ice, always worried that she will mess things up. But in order to defend the country for her father, she had to struggle to maintain it and had to hold on.

Chen Yue was fine when she was in Nanjing, but when she encountered difficulties and pressure, she could still tell Chen Yue that she was very relaxed with Chen Yue here. But Chen Yue left Nanjing with his troops, and she could only bear all the things alone, and there was no one to share.

So, when something happened, she would come to her father's bedroom and tell her father that although Chongzhen couldn't help her with ideas, or even speak, after saying something, her pressure would be much less. Of course, every time she spoke, she would drive the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace far away.

"Father, Chen Yue is very capable and has lived up to you and me. After he takes Beijing, let's move back to Beijing, do you think it's okay? ”

After Kun Xing finished telling Chongzhen, she went out in good spirits, and there were still too many things for her to deal with.

The eunuchs came in again, carefully guarding Chongzhen. The two palace maids knelt on the ground and gently rubbed Chongzhen's legs to help him recover as soon as possible.

Suddenly, Chongzhen raised his hand.

"You two get out of the way." Chen Jin, the eunuch waiting behind him, could already judge Chongzhen's thoughts from Chongzhen's movements, and hurriedly motioned for the two palace maids to stand aside.

Then, I saw Chongzhen holding the armrest of the chair with his hand, trying to stand up hard.

"Your Majesty, be careful." Chen Jin hurriedly went up to help.

"Wow!" Chongzhen looked at him angrily, and Chen Jin had to stop. Then I saw Chongzhen standing up slowly and hard, then leaving the armrests of the chair with both hands, and stood up alone tremblingly......
