It turned out that a few days ago, the thief king Jiayinbu suddenly came out of hiding in Tibet and attacked Luoyang, an important town in the Central Plains, claiming to capture King Fu and cut him with a thousand knives.

Then the thieves dispatched the elites of each department, with Li Zicheng as the first day and night, taking advantage of the fog to raid Fengyang City, the central capital of the Ming Kingdom.

In less than half a day, they completely annihilated the 20,000 officers and soldiers guarding Fengyang, killed the guard Zhu Guozheng and others, captured the Fengyang prefect Yan Rongxuan and executed him, and drove the people to cut down hundreds of thousands of pines and cypresses in the imperial tomb, and also demolished the surrounding buildings and the Longxing Temple where Ming Taizu became a monk, and then dug the emperor's ancestral tomb and so on.

All this, how can you anger Emperor Chongzhen, how can you make the world shocked, how can you come!

When Li Zicheng proposed these things, Wang Jiayin didn't dare to do them, and volunteered to become the target of attracting the attention of the Tianxiong Army, but Li Zicheng had the courage to do it, and he became famous all of a sudden, even bigger than the name of the Tianjun, and spread more widely.

Emperor Chongzhen was discussing the Funing War with the cabinet ministers in the Wenhua Palace, and when he heard the news, he was so angry that he couldn't slow down his breath, and he fainted at that time.

Originally, the cabinet chief assistant also wanted to faint, but Emperor Chongzhen fainted first, so he had no choice but to save the king first. Everyone can have a premonition that something unprecedented in the country and dynasty will inevitably cause a violent earthquake.

Emperor Chongzhen's fainting is not fake, he wants to become the king of Zhongxing, so he takes Taizu as an example, not close to women, diligent and diligent, and pays a lot.

At the beginning of his ascension, despite natural and man-made disasters and thieves, Jianyu even invaded the land of Gyeonggi. But there are also soldiers under the capital division with Altan Khan first, and he is not so bad. As long as he works hard, Emperor Chongzhen's heart still firmly believes that the emperor will live up to his wishes. I will definitely be able to prosper the Ming Dynasty.

However, now that the ancestral grave has been dug up, even if it is changed to ordinary people, it will be a great disaster. Now the ancestral grave of the emperor has been excavated, and it is generally only possible in the last days of the dynasty.

Could it be that his hard work is not only in vain, but even the ancestral society will be lost in his own hands? After Emperor Chongzhen woke up. Unwilling to ask yourself in your heart.

At this moment, even the civil official group, which usually dares to sing against the imperial power, does not dare to pant loudly.

Since ancient times, the concept of the king is worried about the humiliation of the minister, and the king humiliates the death of the minister, this sentence is just a façade at present. But right now, no one dares not to care about this great shame.

Emperor Chongzhen put on mourning clothes for the first time and ran to the Taimiao to cry loudly. Civil and military officials of the imperial court. The royal family is also vegetarian, and all the singing, dancing and drinking banquets are suspended.

Of course, it is not okay for such a big thing to be blamed without one taking the blame. After urgent deliberation by the cabinet, the first assistant Cheng Jimei and Liang Tingdong, the secretary of the military department, both submitted their resignations. In addition, the prefect of Fengyang is dead, but the governor and governor of Fengyang Mansion cannot escape the responsibility of the imperial history, and they deserve to die if they are guilty.

What is more controversial is that Lu Xiangsheng, who was responsible for rounding up the thieves in the Central Plains. There must be responsibility, but what is the crime?

When something happens. Not long after Lu Xiangsheng took office, he was organizing and coordinating troops in Shandong and Henan to compress the space for the activities of the thieves. Then they had to deal with the thieves' attack on Luoyang. In this case, it is impossible for anyone to think that the thieves would risk the world's disapproval and secretly go to dig the emperor's ancestral grave.

In general. In Lu Xiangsheng's situation, all kinds of reasons are not reasons, and he deserves to die if he asks for a crime. Just like in the original history, it was Zhang Xianzhong who did this at that time, and in the end, the governors of the five provinces who had been dismissed and idle were all pulled out and convicted of capital crimes.

But for now. The elite Duqin King of the whole country fought with Jianyu in the area of Funing. And the local armies in the Central Plains were ravaged by thieves, and they could only protect themselves and had no power to fight back.

Just when the situation in the Central Plains was about to be completely eroded, Lu Xiangsheng, as an ordinary prefect, was born out of thin air and broke the thieves. The court unanimously agreed that in the current situation, if you want to exterminate the thieves, you must have Lu Xiangsheng.

However, in the final result of the discussion, Lu Xiangsheng was finally arrested and put in prison, and he was beheaded after the autumn. After all, this fact is too big to be asked for a capital offense first. Whether you really want to kill in the future depends on how the public opinion of the court will decide during the period after the autumn.

After disposing of a group of officials, no one expected that Emperor Chongzhen would actually issue an edict against himself.

He is the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty to issue an edict of guilt, a young emperor who wants to prosper the Ming Dynasty, in the year of blood and strength, with the respect of the emperor, admit his mistakes to the whole world, and issue an edict of guilt.

When some courtiers heard the news, they remorse, blood and tears when they heard the words of the edict, and they all cried when Emperor Chongzhen wrote such an edict himself. One of them is Xu Guangqi, who is sick in bed.

He wrote again, imploring the imperial court to build water conservancy, promote potatoes and other high-yield crops, and appease the people's livelihood, which was the fundamental way.

However, there are still too few officials like Xu Guangqi, and more of those civilian and military generals are cowardly on the surface, but they are watching the drama in their hearts. Otherwise, when Emperor Chongzhen was forced to call for money due to financial difficulties, he would not be perfunctory.

After Xu Guangqi's recital was handed over, it was like a stone thrown into the sea, and it was not taken seriously at all. On the contrary, the vacant position after some questioning aroused the covetousness of all parties.

Cheng Ji, the head of the cabinet, stepped down, and Zhou Yanru, known as a prodigy, took his place. Liang Tingdong, the secretary of the military department, was questioned and never hired, and Zhang Fengyi, a border minister who was famous for knowing soldiers, took over the post of secretary of the military department.

And Zhang Fengyi recommended Sun Chuanting, who is also from Daizhou, saying that he has made great achievements in suppressing thieves, and he has already secured peace in Daizhou, so he can take over Lu Xiangsheng's post and continue the important task of suppressing bandits.

However, because Sun Chuanting was only a five-rank Jixun Lang before he resigned and returned to his hometown, it caused some civil officials to attack, and it also made Emperor Chongzhen a little worried. After all, it was not famous in the military before.

In the midst of hesitation, another 800 miles rushed to the Beijing Division, saying that the thief broke through Li Zicheng, with the power of digging the imperial tomb, waved his army south, and successively conquered Luzhou, Anqing, Hezhou, Chuzhou, and Yizheng along the Yangtze River to Jiangsu, all the way invincible, seriously threatening the Jiangnan of the land of money and grain.

At this moment, the civil officials in this part of Jiangnan are in a hurry. What are you fighting about, doesn't Sun Chuanting have a hand on thieves, hurry up!

So far, history has changed greatly because of the emergence of Hu Guang. The situation of the Ming Dynasty became even more difficult, and there was no one in the south, south, west, and northwest who did not make trouble, and its rule was already shaky.

In the matter of Jingshi, when An Gui Feige sent a message to Hu Guang, the war in northern Shaanxi was also sent to Jingshi by 800 miles, which once again dealt a serious blow to the rulers of the Ming Dynasty.
