Just when Zhu Qing was drunk in front of Xiaobao's grave because of grief, there was also a lot of sadness on the twin cities in Shaanxi. Li Zicheng led the brothers of "Li Jiazhai" to take Gao Yingxiang's body back to Shuangcheng Walled City on the road.

The old man of Shuangcheng looked at Gao Yingxiang, who was lying quietly like a beloved son, and the old man burst into tears. Many years ago, he and Xu Hongru embarked on this road, even if they failed, they never regretted it, but now, when he was full of gray hair, watching the descendants he brought out fall one by one, he felt that he was really old.

The old man of Shuangcheng pulled the white cloth, covered Gao Yingxiang, gritted his teeth, and showed a trace of grief and anger.

"Who did it?" The old man of the twin cities asked bitterly.

Everyone was silent, and after a while, Xu Hongfei, the leader of the White Lotus, arched his hand and said, "Shibo, it's Jinyiwei." Kill the people of the Wind Belt. ”

"Jin Yiwei?" The old man said word by word.

"That's right, at that time, dozens of people in my White Lotus fought with a group of Jinyi guards led by Kill Feng at the mouth of the Yellow River, and I could have escaped, but I didn't want to suddenly kill another group of Jinyi guards at the ferry, we were attacked by the enemy on our backs, but fortunately, Brother Chuang arrived in time, and the sound hit the west, distracting the attention of the Jinyi guards, and we were able to fight out of the encirclement. Unexpectedly, Brother Chuang was injured by the Jinyi guard on the ship with a hidden weapon. Xu Hongfei said.

"What? The brocade guard on the ship? At this time, Li Zicheng and Liu Zongmin asked in unison, because they suspected that what Xu Hongru was talking about was the Liu Qingfeng group they had met before.

"That's right, this is the secret weapon that hurt Brother Chuang's life." Xu Hongfei said, took out a dart from his chest and handed it to the old man.

"Crescent darts?" The old man took the dart and looked at it, and said, the old man is an old man, and he can recognize this dart at a glance.

"Liu Qingfeng's? He should be the only one who can fly out of this hidden weapon. The old man judged.

"His grandmother's, I've seen this person, he didn't dare to get angry that night, I knew that I would have killed him that night, and Brother Chuang wouldn't have today." Liu Zongmin remembered that when he rescued Jiang Long that night, he surrounded the Tianfu boat.

"Why are you soft?!" The old man choked.

"At that time, there was a young man on the boat, and he said that he had moved Brother Cheng, and I thought that the person who could move Brother Cheng was not easy to deal with, so he didn't dare to act rashly." Liu Zongmin said and glanced at Li Zicheng.

The old man also glanced at Li Zicheng, "But is there such a thing?" ”

"Yes, I was controlled by Liu Qingfeng at that time, but fortunately the young man kicked me and pushed me into the water before I was able to escape. Later, I noticed that the boy had a tattoo of the word 'ten' on his right shoulder. Li Zicheng said.

"A tattoo of the word 'ten'? Zhu Gongjin's people? The old man asked in surprise. Li Zicheng nodded.

"Well, there is no resurrection from death. No matter who the real murderer is, King Chuang is gone, leaving behind this large group of soldiers and horses, and the dragons can't be leaderless. The front came to report that Sun Chuanting had rushed to Tongguan. I'm too old to move, so I won't go down. Some of you must stand up and carry the banner of the rebels. Otherwise, don't say that you will avenge King Chuang, if you let Sun Chuanfang go out of the customs to attack, everything will be ruined. The old man said.

As soon as the old man of Shuangcheng said this, there was a lot of discussion in the mourning hall, the White Lotus Righteous Army elected the young and promising Xu Hongfei, Liu Jiajun elected the big boss Liu Zongmin, and Li Jiazhai elected Li Zicheng...... It is difficult to decide.

"Old man, my brother-in-law is still lying here, and we have a dispute like this, how can he be blinded? I think whoever becomes the king is a matter for later, and now let my uncle enter the ground for peace. Li Zicheng said.

"Well, it's still self-righteous. Come on, the Houshan Dharma has begun! With the order of the old man of Shuangcheng, Gao Yingxiang was carried to the back mountain for a thick burial.

After a night of funeral, it was dawn. At this time, someone outside the city gate suddenly came to report, "Sun Chuanfang is approaching Tongguan!" ”

Hearing this battle report, everyone in the Shuangcheng Walled City did not have time to rest, and was immediately summoned to the hall by the old man of Shuangcheng to discuss the leader of the rebel army. The strange thing is that the topic that was debated last night suddenly had a unanimous opinion this morning, and everyone elected Li Zi as the new king.

Li Zicheng said modestly, "How can Li be virtuous? Can you take on such a heavy responsibility? ”

"Brother Cheng, you don't have to excuse yourself, you fought with Sun Chuanting last time, and only you know him best." Liu Zongmin was the first to say.

"Yes, Brother Cheng, your capable brothers know that as long as you are on the throne, my Shandong White Lotus Righteous Army will be at your disposal at any time." Although Xu Hongfei is young and vigorous, he also knows that his wings are not hard enough, so he can't be strong.

After that, the leaders of the rebel army from all walks of life expressed their support for Li Zicheng's succession. Li Zicheng couldn't shirk it, and glanced at Shuangchengzi. Shuangchengzi smiled and said, "Zicheng, you fought with your brother-in-law in the south and the north when you were young, and then you committed an accident in our Shaanxi and fled to the south, and entered the Zhu Mansion in disguise, although you have always wanted to be a Shunmin, but, did he let you obey this court?" Today's Ming Dynasty is a disaster and famine for many years, and the tax has not decreased but increased, which is no longer the Ming Dynasty that the people loved in the past. What we are doing now is what is in line with the hearts of the people. Besides, over the years, you have fought in the north and south, attacked Jinyiwei, fought Sun Chuanting, killed corrupt officials, and punished squires, which thing is not talked about by the people? Speaking of Gao Yingxiang, who doesn't know Li Zicheng? You've got a reputation for it, and you can't hide from it. Besides, you still have to avenge your brother-in-law, don't you? I don't care if it's Killing Wind or Liu Qingfeng, whether it's the Ming Army or Jinyiwei, these are all Sun Chuanting's final say, and Sun Chuanting, that's Chongzhen's final say! Only if you kill Sun Chuanting, drive away Chongzhen, and enter the Forbidden City, can your brother-in-law be blind! ”

The Lord of Shuangcheng said a lot in one breath, and the more he talked, the more excited he became, as if he had returned to the time when he was young. However, he knew that he couldn't go back, not to mention that he was old, the descendants were rising rapidly, and what he could do was to take the last pass for the righteous army and choose a correct king, and he couldn't look away. Therefore, he said so much to Li Zicheng, and he already knew it in his heart.

After finishing speaking, the audience was silent, and the old man took a sip of tea from the teacup, and watched Li Zicheng's reaction while drinking. Everyone is also waiting for Li Zicheng's response.

Li Zicheng took a deep breath, and suddenly clasped his fists and said loudly, "Okay!" Listen to the old man and all the brothers! ”

"Good!" The old man smiled and put down the teacup and stood up, "From today onwards, Li Zicheng is the new king of Chuang!" The old man said, handing over King Chuang's talisman to Li Zicheng's hand, Li Zicheng knelt down and accepted the talisman and stood up, waving his arms high.

"Break the king, break the king, break the king! ......" In the audience, all the brothers chanted, Xiang Bo and Huzi and other brothers in Lijiazhai were even more excited, Huzi hugged Yufeng excitedly, and Yufeng shyly pushed away.

Li Zicheng raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. Li Zicheng said, "Brothers, since everyone has elected me as the king of Chuang today, I, Li Zicheng, hereby assure you that there are my brothers Li Zicheng, and I hope that all brothers will work with me to overthrow the abolition of the government and establish a new heaven." Therefore, from today onwards, only by breaking into the army, there are no small gangs and small factions, and only when we come together can we continue to grow. Do you think so?! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The people of Li Jiazhai took the lead in chanting, and the others also responded, Xu Hongfei and Liu Zongmin glanced at each other, and had no choice but to follow.

"Good!" Li Zicheng looked at the people in the audience, his ambition swelled rapidly, he pinched the talisman in his hand hard, and looked ahead, the sky, the morning sun was dazzling.

Behind Li Zicheng, the old man of Shuangcheng smiled, picked up the teacup, and walked into the back of the tent while drinking. Since then, this position belongs to the new King Chuang, Li Zicheng.

After Li Zicheng succeeded him, the first thing he did was to defend the Tongguan Battle and Kaifeng. However, he called Huzi and Xu Hongfei to his side and admonished, "I'll leave it to you in the pass." After Li Zicheng finished speaking, he was silent for a moment and continued, "Be careful of Jinyiwei." ”
