Because Zhu Qing escorted Li Zicheng into the palace, it was very peaceful along the way, and Li Zicheng hoped to make some noise halfway, so that he could understand that the stronghold of the army was still somewhat useful. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoBut except for the butchers who got up early to kill pigs, the whole street was surprisingly quiet, because the entire capital had long been controlled by Jinyiwei.

"Stop!" Routine inspection of the Imperial City.

"Jin Yiwei is doing business." Zhu Qing can pass through the city gate by brushing his face.

Zhu Qing took Li Zicheng and others to the Taihe Hall (Jinluan Palace) with a familiar car, Chongzhen and a cadre of ministers were already waiting here, the so-called imperial gate listened to the government, Taihe is also.

"Stop, no weapons are allowed." It is another checkpoint, this is the place where the emperor and the minister of civil and military affairs discuss politics, the vigilance is naturally strict, and the inspectors are Dongfang Bai and Yan Shi Niang.

To lay down their weapons, Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin and others were a little hesitant. Those little soldiers naturally couldn't stop Li Zicheng, but Dongfang Bai and Yan Shi Niang were carried over on the killing field, and if you want to talk about being arrogant, you are really not afraid of Li Zicheng. After all, there is still an emperor sitting inside, and Li Zicheng can't be allowed to bring a knife into the palace.

A life is at stake, a duty is at stake, and a stalemate is inevitable. But the emperor is waiting, this has not been talked about yet, it is not good to fight like this.

Zhu Qing walked over, looked at it, and understood what was going on. The corner of his mouth smiled, and he said to Li Zicheng, "King Chuang is really worried, bring it in, it's ......"

Before Zhu Qing finished speaking, Dongfang Bai said, "Qinglong, don't mess around, you know the rules of the Jinluan Palace." ”

Zhu Qing smiled at Dongfang Bai, "The two adults who pacify me, if King Chuang doesn't believe in me, Qinglong will let him bring him in, if he accidentally hurts himself, then I don't dare to guarantee their safety, but as long as King Chuang can trust me Qinglong and hand over the weapon to the two adults for safekeeping, then Qinglong dares to guarantee that King Chuang and the others are unscathed." What do you think? Zhu Qing said, then turned to Li Zicheng again.

Dongfang Bai and Yan Shi Niang glanced at each other, and almost didn't laugh: This kid is really good at playing with people!

"King Chuang, you have to think clearly." Dongfang Bai urged.

Li Zicheng knew that if Chongzhen did the truth, what could he do with these knives in his own hands? He glanced at Zhu Qing, frowned, sighed, and said helplessly to his subordinates, "I've handed it over, leave all the weapons for me." As he spoke, he took the lead in handing over the big knife in his hand to Dongfang Bai, and Liu Zongmin and the others saw that King Chuang had disarmed, so they had no choice but to hand over the weapons in their hands to Jinyiwei.

"King Chuang, please!" Surrendered the weapons of Li Zicheng and others, Dongfang Bai said politely.

"Hmph." was confiscated by someone, Li Zicheng was naturally unhappy, shook his sleeves, and strode into the Jinluan Palace.

Although he is also a king, his throne is nothing compared to this Jinluan Palace, Li Zicheng was strongly shocked, but this did not hit his will, but aroused a stronger desire in his heart - if I am the king!

"Qinglong brought Li Zicheng and others from the Shaanxi Peace League to meet the emperor!" Zhu Qing bowed down on one knee to Chongzhen, but since he entered the court as an official, he has never said the words "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live", Chongzhen also acquiesced to his words and deeds, because he also knew that when the local people's cannons and swords came, this sentence was useless at all, and he was already past the age of listening to this sentence or not yet hearing it.

"Qinglong flattened, give a seat!" Chongzhen sat upright.

"Your Majesty." But Zhu Qing didn't sit down, he looked at Li Zicheng, who was standing still, and coughed, "Cough." Signaled to Li Zicheng to see the emperor, you had better mean it.

When Li Zicheng was hesitating whether to salute or not, Chongzhen smiled slightly, "Mi Zhi is a good son, Shaanxi is called the king of Chuang, this is General Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, right?" "Knowing that Li Zicheng is arrogant, Chongzhen didn't care about these many courtesies, just be able to negotiate this agreement today, besides, there is no news of his prince so far, if it weren't for Killing Feng and Zhu Qing and others to make him calm, it is estimated that he would have been opened up at this time.

It's not that enemies don't get together, although they are sworn enemies, but it is often their sworn enemies who cherish each other. He did this with the imperial court, and Emperor Chongzhen still treated himself like this, and if he pretended to be big, he would be ignorant. Li Zicheng clasped his fists and saluted Chongzhen, "King Chuang has seen the emperor." ”

Seeing this, Liu Zongmin immediately led the generals to salute, "The last general will see the emperor." ”

In the same way, they don't want to say, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

"Excuse me, give me a seat!" Chongzhen raised his hand in response.

The palace guards hurriedly gave Li Zicheng and others a seat.

Li Zicheng sat down and swept around, only to find that Ming Ting was not as unbearable as he imagined. On the dragon chair of the Jinluan Palace, there are Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Zhou, although Chongzhen looks a little haggard, but there seems to be a fire in his eyes that is difficult to extinguish, shining on the once invincible Ming Dynasty.

On both sides of the dragon chair, on the Chongzhen side is the governor of the factory guard to kill the wind, and on the side of Queen Zhou is one of the four leaders of the Jinyi Wei and the former first female catcher in the capital. On the front left side of the dragon chair is the eunuch Wang Chengen, this person Li Zicheng knows too well, the former partner, and was later caught red-handed by Chongzhen and Zhu Qing when he was ready to rebel, fortunately, Chongzhen gave him a chance, and he can still recite the holy decree in the Jinluan Palace. Li Zicheng and Wang Chengen glanced at each other, and both hurriedly avoided each other's eyes, it was very dangerous for such an identity to give such a look on such an occasion, at least Wang Chengen felt so.

Li Zicheng moved his eyes to His Royal Highness, the front row on the left was Zhou Yanru, and the head row on the right was Wen Tiren. These Donglin demons, who had just drunk last night, were still a little confused at this time, but Li Zicheng didn't dare to underestimate these people at all, but he was not afraid of these people, the more rampant these people were, the more they could toss, and the more dangerous the Ming Court would be. Li Zicheng sneered at the corner of his mouth, and nodded slightly at Wen Tiren, he seemed to know that this person who was standing on the right side would have to stand on the left sooner or later. This nod and smile is considered a greeting gift.

Passing over the Wenchen generals who were forced by Chongzhen to sit upright, Li Zicheng's eyes fell on Zhu Qing, his biggest rival had no attendants by his side at this time, this was the loneliest person in the entire hall. But Li Zicheng knew that Zhu Qing was not lonely, and the Ming Court had five gates, Qinglong Gate, White Tiger Gate, Xuanwu Gate, Vermilion Bird Gate, and Iron Mask Gate. The leaders of these five gates are all characters who can take charge of themselves, especially Zhu Qing of Qinglongmen is the strongest, and the other four gates usually perform their own duties, and they all obey the orders of Qinglongmen in wartime, because the leader of Qinglongmen is their supreme leader, Jinyi Weidu. Cheng Li under the Qinglong Gate is the chief soldier who commands the Guanning defense line in eastern Liaodong, and the former leader of the Iron Mask Gate Tie Mian is also on the front line of Guanning. These are only Li Zicheng knows the Qinglong generals, not including his followers, the White Lotus Sect Xu Feihong in Shandong, who has cannons and warships in his hands, Shi Kefa in Jiangnan, the landlords and gentry in Sichuan, Huguang and other places also support Zhu Qing's reform, and Taiwan's eldest son Zheng Chenggong once received half of Zhu Qing's Japanese fleet, these are all the capital that Zhu Qing can carry with Li Zicheng to the end. Now in this hall, there are masters such as Killing Wind, Qinglong, Vermilion Bird, Dongfang Bai, Yan Shi Niang, etc., needless to say, the white tiger who was not present was in the camp at this time, and Xuanwu was in Kaifeng at this time. Zhu Qing seems to be outnumbered, but he is ambushed from all sides.

Watching Zhu Qing leisurely drink a cup of tea, Li Zicheng broke out in a cold sweat in his heart, the person opposite was too terrible, he could turn the world upside down when he moved, and he could control the overall situation when he was quiet. No wonder as soon as Zhu Qing spoke, Chongzhen gave him a seat!

Seeing Li Zicheng and the others sitting at ease, Zhu Qing didn't have any more words and deeds, he knew that the basic courtesy of a monarch and a minister still had to save face for Chongzhen. He drank his tea quietly, as for how to talk about it, it was Li Zicheng and Chongzhen's business, because the result was not important, and it didn't matter how the process was discussed, the important thing was just that there was such a thing.

After a period of greetings and bloodless verbal swords, the two sides finally showed their cards -- exchanging peace conditions.

Chongzhen's main one, break into the army to accept Zhao'an, and return to the imperial court!

Li Zicheng has two main things, fame and fortune, and let go of Lao Tzu's daughter!

It doesn't seem to be a big problem, it's just that Li Zicheng's fame and fortune want to collect too much, and divide the Ming Dynasty equally!
