Chapter 749: The Dragon Has an Extra Third Eye

Chapter 749: The dragon has a third eye

(o749)

[Today's third shift is delivered]

Before dawn, Emperor Chongzhen freshened up under the service of the palace maids, changed into the regular court clothes, came to the Dongnuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace in the embrace of the palace maids and eunuchs, sat for a while, drank half a cup of fragrant tea offered by the palace maids, and then went to the Danqi to worship the sky.

Every day at dawn, the emperor worships the sky, and does not play music as usual, but the bronze incense burners such as cranes on the Danqi are all lit with agarwood and spewed out curling cigarettes. Some of the eunuchs and palace maids of the Qianqing Palace knelt on both sides of the Danqi, and some knelt under the Danqi. No one in the entire palace dared to walk around casually, no one dared to speak, no one dared to make a sound, it was solemn.

When Chongzhen knelt down to heaven three times and bowed nine times on the cigarette-filled dan pier, he was as reverent as before on the surface, but his mood was very different. Ever since he ascended to the pole at the age of seventeen, he has worshiped the heavens at dawn every day, regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter. If there is a strong wind or rain or snow, he can't worship in the Danqi, so he worships in the main hall of the Qianqing Palace.

He believes that the will of heaven is in line with the people's will, and only by respecting heaven can he love the people, and he is determined to be a wise sage of Zhongxing Daming, so for nine years, he has worked hard every day to govern state affairs, even if he is at night for the province, he will answer the chapter until late at night, but he will get up at dawn as usual, and the first major thing is to worship the sky.

In the past, he either silently prayed for the victory of the "thief suppression", or silently prayed for the "Dongyu" to be without police, in short, he prayed for one wish: the country and the people. Today's worship of heaven and Chongzhen's thoughts are much simpler. He just hoped that Zhang Zhun and other traitors would be killed by thunder. As long as they are all killed by thunder, the world will be much cleaner.

There are a few old eunuchs who stand closer, thinking that the emperor did not forget to worship the dawn on such a difficult day, and thinking that the emperor has worked hard for nine years to govern the country, diligently, and has no merit and hard work, but they didn't expect it to be like today, and the state affairs continue to be dim, and they can't see the light at all. They couldn't help but cry quietly, and some of the old eunuchs even choked up.

Among these old eunuchs, Wang Chengen's mood is the most complicated. He saw Chongzhen handling political affairs diligently every day, and even women almost quit. Such a diligent emperor, I am afraid that among all the emperors in history, he can be regarded as the first. However, God just can't get along with Chongzhen, and the more diligent Chongzhen is, the darker the state affairs become.

Wang Chengen really can't figure it out, what the hell is going on? Could it be that God is really going to destroy the Ming Dynasty? After a moment of silence, Wang Chengen said bitterly: "Your Majesty, you have already worshiped the sky, please go to the warm pavilion to rest."

Chongzhen didn't seem to hear it, and still silently prayed in his heart that God would have mercy on him for nine years of respecting the heavens and ancestors, and that he would be able to eat and clothe himself for fear of falling, and bless him through the current difficulties. He also called on God to bless Huang Taiji's soldiers and horses to evacuate Beizhili as soon as possible......

Wang Chengen said softly again: "The emperor has been sleeping and eating abnormally for days, and he has to deal with unforeseen events today, please hurry up and take a break in the pavilion."

Chongzhen was taken aback, thinking that his companion's words were very reasonable, so he got up from the mat and walked into the warm pavilion to rest. After eating the white fungus bird's nest soup and two dim sum, two palace maids came in, one brought a cup of warm tea with a silver tray and knelt in front of him, and the other knelt down with a palace maid holding an official kiln pastel lady gargle with a silver tray. Chongzhen rinsed his mouth with warm tea, spit it into the gargle, and then leaned back on the dragon chair and sighed deeply.

The current state affairs make Chongzhen very worried. The Tartars had not retreated, and the Tiger Army was pressing forward step by step. He received a report from Jinyiwei that the Tiger Ben Army was actually stationed at Dagukou. Dagukou, what kind of place is that? It was the gateway to Beijing and Tianjin, and he was furious, and immediately ordered an inventory to find out how the Tiger Army arrived at Dagukou, and for what reason it was to garrison in Dagukou.

However, so far, no one has given him a satisfactory answer. The more the people below delayed, the more strange Chongzhen felt that there was in it, and the more he wanted Jinyiwei and Dongcheng to investigate, and he must give him an answer. The current Chongzhen is a little suspicious, and when he feels a little wrong, he wants to go crazy to seek the truth. He always felt that everyone was hiding from him.

A eunuch came in, knelt down, and said in a proper manner: "Please have breakfast for the emperor."

Chongzhen was thinking about when Huang Taiji would be able to leave Beizhili, once the Tartar left Beizhili, how would he face Zhang Zhun's crazy erosion, and how to eliminate the Tiger Ben army stationed at Dagukou, so not only did he not hear the words of the imperial sign please use Zaola, but he didn't even notice that this eunuch knelt in front of him. When the eunuch invited him to breakfast for the second time, he understood in his heart, shook his head and said, "Excuse me"

The eunuch was shocked, afraid that he didn't hear clearly, and was about to invite the emperor to the main hall for dinner again, but then saw the emperor waving his hand in an extremely irritable mood, and said impatiently: "Breakfast is free, go down and go down."

The royal sign did not dare to speak, and kowtowed and withdrew. Wu Xiang, the eunuch in charge of the palace, who was waiting outside the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, knew that the emperor refused to have breakfast, and he said three times in a row, and he sighed in his heart. The emperor is so irritable, how to deal with state affairs? There was no way, and it happened that Wang Chengen came from behind the Qianqing Palace.

Chongzhen looked at Wang Chengen listlessly, and continued to read the chapter with a red pen, and at the same time asked lazily: "Big companion, what's the bad news?" ”

Wang Chengen hurriedly said: "Emperor, it may be good news. ”

Chongzhen frowned, didn't even bother to raise his head, and said weakly: "Good news is good news, bad news is bad news, what is it called good news?" You better not make up any jokes to fool me, I don't have the heart to listen to jokes today. ”

Wang Chengen stepped forward and said with relief: "Emperor, Jinyiwei's Luo Yang report, saying that Tartar ...... Probably retreated. ”

Chongzhen's heart suddenly jumped, and the vermilion brush in his hand suddenly fell on the table. Without paying attention, a large cloud of ink is rendered like this, which is very abrupt. Even, because Chongzhen's movements were too big, ink splashed on the dragon robe in front of him, just between the two dragon eyes. It looks like the dragon has a third eye. However, Chongzhen didn't notice it at all.

Jianyu retreated?

Chongzhen subconsciously stared at Wang Chengen.

If someone else, even if it is Gao Qiqian, he will think that the other party is lying, and he is changing his way to comfort himself. However, he believed that Wang Chengen would not speak easily. Wang Chengen is a typical honest person, and he will never talk nonsense about unfounded things. He said that the Tartars may have retreated, then it really could be a retreat.

Huang Taiji, the scourge, is finally willing to leave Beizhili? Suddenly, without warning, Jianyu is about to retreat? Is this a Jianyu who can't hold on? Had to retreat? It may be that the news came too suddenly, and Chongzhen couldn't believe it at all. At the same time, he also has the psychology of gaining and losing. In case it's a fake news, he's stinking.

Chongzhen even wondered if it was because of some hallucinations in his worship just now, so that such a thing happened. When he prayed just now, he was still praying that God would let the Tartars withdraw as soon as possible, but as a result, just after the worship was over, the Tartars withdrew. Even if it is blessed by innocence, it is impossible for him to manifest so soon?

"Hurry up and call Luo Yang's sex"

Chongzhen finally came back to his senses and screamed.

Wang Chengen couldn't help frowning. This action is rare for him, especially in front of Chongzhen. However, at this moment, Wang Chengen can't care so much. Because, Chongzhen's voice was too sharp, even sharper than those eunuchs. At first glance, I thought it was a eunuch calling someone

Luo Yangxing had been waiting outside for a long time, and when he received the order, he hurriedly came in to salute. He knew that if his news was sent, Chongzhen would definitely be happy, so the commander of the Jinyi Guard at this moment was very comfortable in his heart. It is indeed not easy to be able to get ahead of Wu Mengming and deliver this good news to the emperor. Wu Mengming's son, although he is the deputy commander of Jinyiwei and his deputy, has been appreciated by Chongzhen in several consecutive things recently, and Luo Yangxing is very worried, for fear that Wu Mengming will replace him.

When Chongzhen saw Luo Yangxing, he hurriedly asked, "Where did you get the news?" Is it reliable? ”

Luo Yangxing said affirmatively: "Reliable"

Just as I was about to make a detailed report, how reliable the news of the Tartars' retreat was, suddenly, there was a scream outside, but it was Wu Mengming's voice: "You let me see the emperor, you let me see the emperor, I have a big event to tell the emperor a thousand joys, a thousand joys, the Tartars retreated, the Tartars retreated."

Chongzhen chuckled in his heart, still a little unbelieving his ears. Could it be that Huang Taiji really retreated? Could it be that the worship of heaven was manifested so quickly? Could it be that the fortunes of his country will gradually turn around from now on?

At this time, the screams of Zhang Yixian, the eunuch of Dongchang, came from outside: "Emperor, the slave maid has good news and urgently reports that the Tartars have retreated, and the Tartars have retreated from the emperor."

A huge joy surged from under Chongzhen's heart and rushed to the top of his brain, almost shocking Chongzhen as if he was about to faint. Jinyiwei came to report, and Dongchang came to report again, and the news must be conclusive. Even if Chongzhen is suspicious, there is no longer the slightest doubt at this time. Huang Taiji has finally retreated. Damn Jianyu, he was finally willing to get out of Beizhili.

Chongzhen was stunned for a long time before he shouted: "No need to report, I know that the officials above the fourth grade of the fast transmission are all on the platform, and I have a big event to announce."
