Chapter 644: This Heavenly King's Mansion Is for Me?
Feng Yunshan was bright in the sky, and after the soldiers of the captive army completely controlled the entire Tianjing City, he came to the west side of Tianjing by boat from the waterway accompanied by Shi Dakai and Liang Peiyou, the commander of the Fifth Division, and entered the Tianjing City from the West Gate of Shuixi.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the Heavenly King's Mansion, he saw Luo Xuan leading a group of people to greet him.
"Commander of the Fifth Division, Luo Xuan, meet Your Majesty! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! After Luo Outline paid his respects, he directly told Feng Yunshan about the situation of the war: "Your Majesty, the Taiping soldiers in Tianjing City, all of them did not resist, I heard that it was Your Majesty's captive army that came to attack, and they surrendered one after another. Therefore, we were able to take all of Tianjing City so smoothly. Now only the Heavenly King's Mansion remains, and there are about 10,000 or 20,000 Taiping soldiers guarding it. Weichen has already let people shoot into the leaflet notice to persuade the Taiping soldiers in the Heavenly King's Mansion to surrender! Results should be available soon! ”
"Excellent! This time, they were able to occupy Tianjing without using guns and cannons, in addition to the lack of food in Tianjing City, which caused the Taiping soldiers in Tianjing City to be unable to resist, in addition, I was the southern king of the original Heavenly Kingdom, and they would not have much hostility towards me. Feng Yunshan analyzed: "Therefore, I ask you to continue to treat the Taiping soldiers in the Heavenly King's Mansion as former brothers, not enemy troops like the Qing Demon. If you can persuade you to surrender, you should try to persuade you to surrender, and you are not allowed to use force unless you have to do so. ”
Luo Xuan agreed to the order, pulled one person next to him, and introduced it to Feng Yunshan: "Your Majesty, who is this?" ”
"Descend Chen Chengying to meet Your Majesty!" However, Chen Chengying, who led the troops to surrender to the captive army, followed Luo Xuan to meet Feng Yunshan.
"It turned out to be Brother Chen! Hurry up, please! Feng Yunshan stepped forward to help Chen Chengying up, and said with a smile: "If Brother Chen can return to me, the empire will definitely be strengthened." Now you and Yucheng's kid are two uncles and nephews working for me, not bad, not bad! ”
Feng Yunshan's words made Chen Chengying embarrassed.
He couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, now that Chen Yucheng was already the division commander, and he didn't know what official position Feng Yunshan would give him, if it was lower than his nephew, his face was not very good-looking. However, who said that he did not defect to the king of the south earlier? If he had followed King Nan back then, at least his status would not be lower than this Luo outline now.
Feng Yunshan didn't know that Chen Chengying had so many thoughts, he just wanted to ask about the situation in the Heavenly King's Mansion, but he heard Shi Dakai next to him puff and knelt in front of him.
"Your Majesty is wise! Weichen thanked Your Majesty for the Taiping soldiers in Tianjing City and the Tianwang Mansion! Shi Dakai on the side suddenly knelt down and said: "Weichen knelt and begged His Majesty to spare the life of the Heavenly King, put him under house arrest in one place, and let him spend the rest of his life." ”
Seeing this, Luo Xuan and Chen Chengying next to him also knelt down and bowed: "The ministers also beg Your Majesty to spare the life of the Heavenly King!" ”
Feng Yunshan sighed, the righteous king Shi Dakai is a righteous and righteous person. It just so happened that he didn't want to put Hong Xiuquan to death, and Shi Dakai said that putting Hong Xiuquan under house arrest was a good idea. Then he said, "Am I such a vicious person? Since you have all asked for this, I will grant you, quasi-play! ”
Feng Yunshan didn't bother to explain anything.
At this moment, more than a dozen soldiers of the captive army led several people to Luo Xuan, but they recognized Feng Yunshan, and hurriedly knelt down and bowed down, shouting long live.
Feng Yunshan waved his hand and hurriedly asked them to get up, but he was depressed in his heart, since he became the Emperor of Laoshizi, he was really bowed down when he met someone, and he was a little annoyed unconsciously.
"What's going on?" Feng Yunshan recognized two acquaintances, one was indeed Hong Renfa, and the other was Hong Renji.
"Back to Your Majesty, this person claims to be the brother of the King of Heaven, Hong Renfa, saying that the King of Heaven is willing to surrender, and he has come to discuss the matter of surrender!"
Hong Renfa waited for the soldiers of the captive army to be introduced, and hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects: "Weichen Hong Renfa pays a visit to Your Majesty, and the King of Heaven is willing to lead the Heavenly Brothers in the Heavenly King's Mansion to submit to Your Majesty!" The Heavenly King has only one condition, he wants to ask His Majesty to move to the Golden Dragon Hall of the Heavenly King's Mansion, and the Heavenly King wants to see His Majesty! Please fulfill your majesty! ”
"Oh? Is the King of Heaven really willing to submit to me? Feng Yunshan was a little surprised, he didn't expect Hong Xiuquan to be willing to give up his son and submit to himself. In his impression, this cousin of his is impatient and has an excellent face. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, if he could solve the affairs of the kingdom of heaven in this way, it would be the most ideal.
"In that case, let my captive army take over the Tianjing Mansion first. Hong Renfa, you go back and tell the King of Heaven, and say that I have promised him, and in an hour, I will see him in the Golden Dragon Palace. But let him first transfer all the Taiping soldiers of the Heavenly King's Mansion out of the palace and return to the captive army. "Feng Yunshan had to guard against what Hong Xiuquan had, so let Luo Xuan send a captive army to completely occupy the entire Heavenly King Mansion.
Fortunately, Hong Xiuquan did not play any tricks, and in less than half an hour, the Tianchao Gate of the Tianwang Mansion was opened, and more than 13,000 Taiping soldiers in the mansion, under the leadership of Xu Zongyang, Lin Shaozhang and others, abandoned their weapons one after another and came to the big square outside the Tianwang Mansion.
Feng Yunshan met Xu Zongyang and Lin Shaozhang again, and they were originally old acquaintances, but Feng Yunshan was not very interested in the two, and just lightly asked Luo Xuan to arrange them.
Luo Xuan asked the Fifth Division to lead all these Taiping soldiers to the Dongwang Mansion for training. He and Shi Dakai led a group of personal guards to guard Feng Yunshan, and more than 1,000 people swept into the Heavenly King's Mansion and went straight to the Golden Dragon Palace.
After passing through the Heavenly Empire Gate, Feng Yunshan was completely shocked by Hong Xiuquan's big hands and feet! According to Chen Chengying's introduction, the outer city of Sun City alone was built magnificently, resplendent with gold, and the construction of the Heavenly Father Terrace, the East and West Outer Dynasty Houses and the Celestial Dynasty Archway, as well as the Hundred Officials Partial Hall where the ministers came to pilgrimage and rest. And between the halls with white marble slabs paved road, there is not a trace of grooves, like a whole, the strange flowers and plants and precious stones of the road, dizzying, so that Feng Yunshan, who has seen the Old Summer Palace, is also amazed.
You must know that even if Hong Xiuquan started to build the Heavenly Palace, even if he started building it as soon as he occupied Nanjing City, it was only two years, and he couldn't imagine that he could build it on such a scale, and he didn't know how much manpower and financial resources were consumed! Moreover, listening to what Chen Chengying said, this is only a preliminary project, and there is still large-scale construction that has not yet begun, and it is estimated that it will cost millions of taels or even nearly 10 million taels.
Feng Yunshan gasped and couldn't help sighing: No wonder the Manchu Qing were so vulnerable, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had not been able to defeat it completely, so it was! Think about it, if half of this wealth can be used for military spending, and even if firearms are purchased from foreigners, it will not be possible for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to be trapped in Tianjing City all the time, and it will not be able to break out of the encirclement of the two large camps in Jiangnan and Jiangbei.
However, this Heavenly King's Mansion is built so well, but it is cheaper for itself! Isn't this what I built for myself?
Feng Yunshan also weighed between Tianjing City and Beijing City, but if it was the capital of Tianjing City, this Tianwang Mansion would serve as his own palace, and he would not have to build a large number of buildings, and on the basis of Tianwang Mansion, it would be slightly modified.
No longer thinking about it at the moment, and no longer looking at this splendid palace group, Feng Yunshan went straight to the Golden Dragon Palace, and did not meet the Taiping soldiers along the way, but there were soldiers patrolling around the road from time to time, obviously the entire Heavenly King Mansion has been controlled by Luo Xuan.
Seeing Feng Yunshan's arrival, all the eight gates of the Golden Dragon Hall were opened, and Meng Deen, Li Xiucheng, Hong Renfa, Hong Renda, Hong Xuanjiao, Lai Lianying and others knelt on the ground to greet Feng Yunshan: "Criminals, wait for you, meet the King of the South!" ”
Seeing that these people all called themselves the King of the South, Feng Yunshan smiled secretly, they must also want to remind themselves that they should be kind to the Heavenly King.
"Brothers and sisters of the kingdom of heaven, be flat! I am now the Emperor of the Chinese Empire, and I have heard that the Heavenly King is willing to lead you to surrender to me, so I have come to meet you. What about the Heavenly King? ”
