Feiyangu had seen the emperor's stunned appearance, and he only thought that the emperor was crying to his dead eldest brother, Prince Su Haoge. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sony knew that the master's "big brother" did not refer to Haoge, but to the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen, who hanged himself on the crooked neck tree on the coal mountain.

Sony remembers very well that after the master ascended the throne, he visited the tomb of Emperor Chongzhen of the former Ming Dynasty many times, and each time he would personally sacrifice the wine, sometimes he would use the sacrificial texts written by the courtiers to chant in front of the tomb, and sometimes he did not use the sacrificial texts, and told them directly in front of the tomb of Chongzhen. The most impressive time for him was in the ninth year of Shunzhi, when the news of the death of Prince Jingjin Nikan came, the master ran to Chongzhen's tomb and knelt on the ground, crying with tears on his face, calling Chongzhen as his eldest brother, and asking Chongzhen's spirit in the sky to bless him, the son of heaven of the Qing Dynasty, not to repeat the mistakes of the Ming Dynasty.

For a few years, the master has not been to Chongzhen's tomb again, and Sony has not heard the master call Chongzhen "big brother" again, he thinks that the master has understood that he should not call Chongzhen the eldest brother, which is inconsistent with the etiquette law, after all, Chongzhen is the king of the dead country, and he is the king of the former Ming Dynasty, the master calls him the eldest brother, and the Qing Dynasty Ming is not a little unjust. No, a few years later, in Yangzhou, he heard the title of "big brother" again.

Shunzhi cried very sadly, no less than the scene they saw that night in Feiyangu. While crying to the dead "eldest brother" Zhu Youzhen about all kinds of sufferings suffered by the Qing Dynasty since the thief Xiucai started the incident and how many times he couldn't sleep at night, he also cried and said that his courtiers refused to share the worries of the emperor for him, and asked him to be the emperor himself, but he worked hard but had little effect, and now they are all called thieves Xiucai to deceive this part, and it is really not interesting for him to do it as an emperor.

Crying tired, Shunzhi was sobbing there, choking there, he muttered a sentence of prayer that Chongzhen's spirit in the sky must bless him through the difficulties in front of him, and prayed that God would see that since he ascended the throne, he had never done anything against the way of heaven, and that he would love Xinjue Luo Fulin to sit on the throne and bless the Qing Dynasty for thousands of years. It's best to bless the thief Xiucai to die suddenly, so that he will save a lot of trouble.

Sonny and Feiyangu knelt to the side in a daze, watching the emperor cry to Zhu Youzhen, who had been dead for sixteen years, and God who didn't know where, and viciously cursed the thief Xiucai to death...

The inside of the house looked very strange, if there was another shaman here, it would not make people suspect that the Qing Emperor was doing a ritual.

Suddenly, Shunji stopped sobbing, looked at Sony suddenly, and ordered something that made Sonny stunned.

"My eldest brother was martyred only by the eunuch Wang Chengen during his lifetime, so I admire Wang Chengen very much, you go and ask Maleji to write an inscription for Wang Chengen... You understand and Ma Leji said, when my eldest brother was martyred by hanging, the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty were like beasts and frightened fish, rushing to be poor, and even bending their knees to the court of thieves, hoping to live on credit for the rest of their lives. ”

"Oh, the minion will do it."

Sony didn't know how he got out of the house. came out to call the cold wind blowing, he really had the feeling of crying and laughing, and the master really wanted to come out of it, how did he think of Zhu Youzhen, and how did he want to erect a monument for Wang Chengen, who committed suicide with Zhu Youzhen. Alas... If this matter really wants to get out, can the civil and military not treat the master as Zhu Youzhen? So who is Wang Chengen? ... Thinking deeper, is this Qing Dynasty really like the Ming Dynasty of the Chongzhen Dynasty, crumbling, and has no power to return to the sky? The master commanded this, it is no less than adding more firewood to the hot pot, and the pot should be boiled even more! ...

However, the master's explanation, Sony didn't dare not do it, but he couldn't let the matter get out, so after finding Maleji, he sternly warned the other party that the matter should not be revealed. Malerji is a bachelor, very erudite, and he understands that this is powerful, and he will respond to it at the moment, and he will be tight-lipped about this matter.

After Sonny went down, a guard came in with a bowl of medicinal soup and asked Shunzhi to take it. This medicinal soup was prescribed by the imperial doctors according to the symptoms of wind and cold, because several imperial doctors had their own opinions on the emperor's illness, and there was no conclusive conclusion. Qi Wanchun, the only imperial physician who suggested that the emperor might have contracted smallpox, was not recognized by several other colleagues, and the Minister of the Interior, Sony, also thought that the matter was ridiculous, so Qi Wanchun was imprisoned, and several other imperial doctors prescribed prescriptions to the emperor according to the wind and cold.

Shunzhi was tightened in his chest, although he couldn't hear the singing of Taiping Kou outside the city, but there were still cannons from time to time, and then he thought of the defeat in the past few days, he really had a headache, and he didn't notice the guard who asked him to take medicine, and when Feiyangu signaled the guard to ask again, Shunzhi heard it, but shook his head and said: "I don't drink it, take it down." ”

Feiyangu and the guard were both shocked, the guard looked at Feiyangu with an embarrassed face, the latter glanced at him, he had to bite the bullet and ask the emperor to take medicine again, but the emperor waved at him very annoyingly: "I said it, what are you still doing here!" ”

The guards did not dare to speak, and bowed their heads and withdrew. Seeing this, Feiyangu could only sigh secretly in his heart, the emperor refused to take the medicine, in case the condition worsened, how could he get it. When he was worried, the guards passed on the scholars Bahana and Bel Tuntai to play. Shunzhi waved his hand to Xuan, and for a moment, Bahana was in front and Tuntai was behind, and they both entered the house and kowtowed to Shunzhi.

"Get up."

Shunzhi motioned for the two to get up, and then asked Bahana: "Who is in charge of the defense of the city, and what are the movements of the thieves outside the city?" ”

Bahana and Tuntai were secretly relieved to see that the emperor was in good spirits. Bahana said that Aobai was in charge of the city, and Shunzhi snorted slightly after hearing this, but did not say anything to reprimand Aobai. Thinking about it, he also knew that although Aobai always disappointed him, in addition to Aobai, he really didn't dare to easily entrust Yangzhou City Defense to others, even his uncle Wu Keshan.

"Your Majesty, the people in the city are panicking at the moment, the morale of the army has been dispersed, and the strength is also thin. There are also thieves who come to the city from time to time to shoot and surrender into the city, and the book says that the thieves have 100,000 soldiers, and they can break the city at any time, and persuade the people in the city to know the current affairs, open the door and surrender as soon as possible, so as not to be slaughtered. When the people in the city heard what the thieves said, the hearts of the people were even more broken. ”

Bahana must have come here for a purpose, he and Tuntai wanted to ask the emperor to leave Yangzhou immediately and return to the north, but he did not directly explain what he meant, but first talked about the predicament in the city. Inside, there is no exaggeration.

Tun Tai also said: "Not only that, but the thief also wantonly publicized that the Han army and Han officials would surrender, and those who said that if they did not surrender, the thieves would uproot his nine clans, and the old and weak women and children would all be killed, and their sons and grandchildren would be cut off... At present, there are still thousands of generals in the green battalion of the Han army in the city, and if these people are deceived by thieves, I am afraid that there will be chaos. ”

After Shunzhi heard this, his eyebrows were deeply locked again, and he said angrily: "How to defend the city of Aobai, why don't you stop the thieves from shooting books?" ”

Tun Tai said sadly: "Your Majesty, since the thief crossed the river, my Qing Dynasty has been defeated in successive battles, and the morale of the army has long been unbearable. It is not easy for Ao Bai to stabilize the cities, and it is necessary to force it again, alas..."

Tuntai couldn't go on, and he couldn't cry on the ground. (To be continued.) )
