When Qian Qianyi returned home, he immediately asked the house slave to hire a shaver.

Qian Qianyi's concubine Kou Baimen looked coldly at Qian Qianyi's ugly appearance of letting him shave his head, and was extremely disdainful.

She couldn't help but think of yesterday's incident, the courtiers discussed the matter of war and peace, Qian Qianyi came back and told Kou Baimen that the city could not be defended, Kou Baimen did what a martyr of the Ming Dynasty should do, saying that if Qian Qianyi was martyred, she would definitely follow, but Qian Qianyi was reluctant to die.

Kou Baimen said that he killed himself, Qian Qianyi said that it hurt too much, Kou Baimen said that he hanged himself, Qian Qianyi said that it was too ugly, and finally Kou Baimen said that he threw himself into the water, Qian Qianyi thought about it and said: It's too cool!

When I went home today, I had a chic attitude, sighed and itched, and found someone to shave my hair!

After shaving his hair, he hurried out.

Qian Qianyi could not control the mind of a concubine at this time, after he finished shaving, he immediately came to the court again, only to see the side of the upward side, because they saw Qian Qianyi's oily and shiny head, and the chopstick-like thin braid behind him.

"Mu Zhaigong, you?"

Wang Duo couldn't help but be a little shocked, but he didn't expect Qian Qianyi, the leader of Donglin, to be the first to shave his hair.

Qian Qianyi just wants everyone to see that he is the first to shave his hair, and he can't run away from this first effort.

Wang Duo sighed: "Shave, shave!" ”

After he finished speaking, they all walked out of the court with a sigh, and each went home to find someone to shave their hair.

Before noon, he asked Gao Mengxi, the secretary of Honglu Temple, to go to the 'Sha'er Huda' military camp again, brought brocade treasures, expressed his obedience, and invited the 'Sha'er Huda' army to enter the city.

Seeing Gao Mengxi's shaving hair, Yang Chao was very satisfied, and immediately agreed to enter the city, and said that he would restrain the soldiers, never hurt a single person, and never kidnap a woman.

Then he left Gao Mengxi by his side, and asked Gao Mengxi to send a person back to reply to the court, requiring all civil and military officials to be greeted in the suburbs, and they didn't have to go out for ten miles, just wait outside the South Gate Jubao Gate.

After Gao Mengxi's arrangement was stopped. Returning to the 'Sha'er Huda' tent again, this time he saw Sha'er Huda himself, but he was directly shocked.

"Yang, Yang. Yang—"

He didn't even say three Yang characters, but he didn't call out Yang Chao's name, and immediately stunned in the tent, completely unaware of what was going on.

"Tall man, the pigtails are so beautiful!"

Yang Chao walked to Gao Mengxi's side. Gently patted him on the shoulder.

"Lord Gao, how about helping Benjue do something?"

"Lord Yang, the crime of the lower official deserves death!"

At this time, Gao Mengxi had already reacted, and they all fell for Yang Chao, but why Yang Chao did this, he didn't know, but he felt that it would not be a good intention.

Yang Chao helped him up: "Eh, since Lord Gao has surrendered to my Qing Dynasty, what a crime!" ”

Gao Mengxi was a little confused at this time, but a hope suddenly rose in his heart: "Could it be that Uncle Yang, you are also obedient?" ”

Smack. A big mouth fanned Gao Mengxi to the ground.

"Surrender? You are shameless, Lao Tzu still wants it! ”

After speaking, he pulled Gao Mengxi up: "The surname is Gao, now call all your people in!" ”

Gao Mengxi brought a lot of people, more than a dozen, most of them were eunuchs in the palace, Jinyi Guards and the like, all of whom stayed outside the camp tent.

These people can't be put back anymore, who knows what they saw.

Gao Mengxi looked panicked, but he didn't dare to disobey: "Come on, my lord, please come in and receive the reward!" ”

He shouted loudly in the tent, and the eunuchs and brocade guards outside the tent heard him. And this good thing, immediately rolled in, and as soon as they came in, more than a dozen knives were put on their necks.

"Be obedient. It's going to be fine! ”

Yang Chao's voice sounded, and several people were immediately stunned at this time.

"Uncle Yang? You're back! ”

A eunuch who had seen Yang Chao exclaimed, and the others immediately knew that the person standing in front of them was not the Manchu Meile Zhangjing Shaer Huda, but Yang Chao, the loyal and righteous uncle of the Ming Dynasty.

"That's right, Benjue is back. They all stayed in the camp honestly. When Benjue is done with the affairs of the city, he will let you go. If you dare to make trouble, there will be no forgiveness! ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, the uncle commands, and the villain just does it."

These brocade guards and eunuchs were shrewd people.

"Someone, prepare the honor guard, Shaerhu Damel Zhangjing is leaving!"

Then Yang Chao roared, his voice full of sarcasm.

The army set out, led by a team of honor guards, holding a pair of prince's claws, four prince's flags, two swords, two guns, and one of the prince's daxies.

In addition to the embroidered red Luo umbrella, these are almost Duoduo's ceremonial guards, of course, the number is a lot less, such as two pairs of lying claws, and the prince's flag is ten poles, but most of the most important embroidered red Luo umbrella and the prince's flag Yang Chao took to the emperor to offer prisoners, and the rest is only a small half.

But it's enough to bluff people, as for whether the ministers of the Ming Dynasty will recognize these as the prince's honor guards, so as to be suspicious, Yang Chao is not worried at all, where will this group of dogs know about the etiquette system just promulgated by Shunzhi of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, they have not enough time to fight for power and profit and loot money, where will they have the mind to understand the honor guard system of the Manchu Dynasty.

However, this is also a simplified guard of honor, after all, Duoduo went to Yangzhou to fight, and these guards of honor were intended to show their prestige after the war, so the meaning was on the line, and they did not bring a full set of them, such as snail numbers, flags, etc.

After the guard of honor, there was a group of guards, numbering two hundred, dressed as the Bayara guards beside Duoduo, Yang Chao's attack on the governor's palace Duoduo's guards were at least half killed by him, but there was only so much left.

Behind the guards, there is a group of cavalry, the number of which is also a hundred, there is no way that Yang Chao's personal soldiers who can ride horses are like this, and the others all follow Zhao Kang to fight Sizhou.

Behind the cavalry, there were neat groups of pikemen, the largest number, more than 4,000 people, plus other soldiers, just 5,000, which was the army that Yang Chao brought back from Yangzhou.

Yang Chao rode on a horse, in front of him was a large flag that blocked his vision and other objects were waving in the wind, and behind him a group of soldiers walked solemnly, silently marching towards Nanjing City.

Yang Chao was surrounded by cavalry, and there was a civilian official next to him, it was Gao Mengxi, who kept him in case something changed.

Soon they entered the Little Ande Gate, and the defenders of the city had already gone down to the city to wait by the roadside, and as soon as the army passed, everyone fell to their knees.

Xiao'ande Gate is the outer gate of Nanjing City.

The so-called Waiguo City is the outermost layer of the city wall in Nanjing.

After Zhu Yuanzhang built Yingtianfu City, he climbed Zhongshan to observe the situation of the capital. It was found that the palace was too close to Zhongshan Mountain, and if the cannon was erected on the mountain, the palace would be easily hit, and there were some important commanding heights, such as Yuhuatai in the south and Shogunate Mountain in the north, which were left outside the castle, which was very unfavorable to the castle defense. So, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the construction of Waiguo City.

Nanjing City is already a very large city, the city wall is fifty or sixty miles long, more magnificent than the Nanjing City of all dynasties, the result is to add a layer of city wall outside, then this outer Guocheng is naturally more magnificent, after the construction is completed, the mountains and tombs outside the city are wrapped, and the length of the city wall has reached an astonishing one hundred and twenty miles.

Of course, such a long city wall, all of which are made of stone bricks, is too expensive, so most of the places are built according to the topography, most of them are made of loess hills, and only some weakly defended positions will add a part of the city wall, and open city gates on these city walls, there are as many as eighteen in total, and the small Ande gate is one of them.

After passing through the small Ande Gate, it is considered to enter the scope of Nanjing City, but what you see in front of you is not prosperous, there are several temples on the left, Nengren Temple, Bifeng Temple, Tianjie Temple, etc. are all here, and on the right hand side is Jubao Mountain, Yuhuatai is one of the peaks.

And the street at the foot is called Yuhuatai Street, the terrain goes all the way down, goes two miles away, the terrain is more gentle, after passing the Yuhuatai South City Gangzi, you can already see a slightly dense building, at this time has arrived at Mihang Street.

Mihang Street is located outside the South Gate Jubao Gate, and there are many rice rows on both sides, hence the name.

At this time, on both sides of Mihang Street, kneeling was full of nearby people, including merchants, shopkeepers, and nearby residents, who used this to show their obedience and beg for peace, and there were people with the word "Shunmin" written on their faces.

Until the three forks of Caishikou and Broom Lane and Mihang Street, Yang Chao finally saw the civil and military officials, they were also kneeling on the ground one by one at this time, behind them was the Jubao Gate, the city gate was wide open, and the city guards would be lined up on both sides of the road, but they were also kneeling, and their weapons were thrown aside, showing that they were absolutely not hostile.

The hundred officials at the gate of the city, Wuyang Wuyang, knelt on the ground, there were cabinet scholars, there were six Shangshu, squires, commanders of various guards, there were general soldiers, deputy generals, and eunuchs of the supervising army, anyway, those who could speak in Nanjing were all here, and they couldn't wait to show their faces in front of the new master.

For the first person, holding a gold plate, there is a big seal on the plate, a yellow book, the big seal represents the jade seal, and the yellow book is the household registration book, of course, these are just symbolic meanings, on behalf of the dedication of the land to the ministers.

At this time, Yang Chao's guard of honor had stopped, and the guards behind him were divided into two columns, rushing towards both sides, and soon stood on both sides of the hundred officials, at this time, the civil and military officials began to feel a little uneasy in their hearts.

Many people secretly looked up, only to see that the guard of honor began to slowly separate, revealing a passage.

A group of cavalry slowly walked towards the hundred officials, and the cavalry formation was so neat that there was no central figure in sight.

It wasn't until the cavalry slowly walked in front of the hundred officials that it stopped, and the cavalry team slowly separated, revealing two of them, one of which was Gao Mengxi, and the other was-

The official who peeked at Yang Chao was immediately dumbfounded and stunned, how could it be Yang Chao! Killing them didn't expect that it would be Yang Chao who would be the one they grew!

Yang Chao slowly jumped off the horse, and under the protection of the left and right guards, he slowly walked in front of Wang Duo, Wang Duo was the civil official holding the gold plate, he was holding the gold plate, so his head was always lowered, but he never saw Yang Chao.

"Lord Wang, it seems that it shouldn't be you. Back then, Prince Qin offered to Liu Bang, and Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, offered to Zhao Kuangyin, what qualifications do you have to donate soil? ”

Wang Duo heard that the voice seemed to be wrong, so he looked up and suddenly looked round.

"You, you, you're—"

Wang Duo was not much better than the others, and the moment he first saw Yang Chao, he was also shocked and speechless.

He couldn't say it, so Yang Chao helped him say it.

He turned over and rode on his horse, and drew his sword violently.

"I am the Ming Dynasty, loyalty, righteousness, Bo Yang Chao!" (To be continued.) )
