Chen Mingxia covered his face.

At this time, he couldn't understand why his majesty grasped this question?

As a mature king, isn't it now a matter of how to cultivate new political forces to counterbalance the old ones?

Even the Tartars know this.

Otherwise, Dolgon would not have promoted him directly to the right attendant of the ministry or even promoted a large number of Hanchen, in order to resist the Manchurian nobles who opposed Dolgon.

And Chongzhen, who is more familiar with himself, shouldn't know this truth.

"Yes! Wechen is a thief! ”

But Chen Mingxia still has to choose to answer Zhu Youzhen's question head-on, and he also has to admit that he is a thief who surrendered to Qing.

Chen Mingxia's voice was extremely small when he said this, and he also lowered his head.

"You also know it's embarrassing, I'm embarrassed to say it, Chen Mingxia."

Zhu Youzhen sneered when he saw this, and sat back down.

At this time, Chen Mingxia felt that he couldn't let His Majesty only remember that he was a thief, but he still wanted to explain, so he raised his head again: "Your Majesty, it is also a helpless move for Weichen to surrender, although he is a thief."

"Don't explain it to me!"

Zhu Youzhen didn't let Chen Mingxia speak, but smiled: "It's good if you admit it, I will ask you again, who are you?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen Chen Mingxia!"

Syllable!

Zhu Youzhen slapped the song in his hand on Chen Mingxia's face: "You are not an official of my Ming Dynasty, what qualifications do you have to be a minister, have you forgotten what you are so quickly, didn't I let you sign up!" ”

"Weichen, I, I'm a thief!"

Chen Mingxia is not stupid, and now he can naturally guess what Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen wants him to answer.

But Chen Mingxia's voice was quieter when he replied again that he was a thief, he felt very uncomfortable, and he didn't understand why His Majesty had to catch him and stick to this matter.

"It seems that you are prone to forgetting who you are, and now that Beijing has just been recovered, everything is complicated, and I don't have much time to talk to you."

After Zhu Youzhen finished speaking, he turned to Zhang Mengxi and ordered: "Before trying him, take him to Yongding Gate to kneel, and send a guard to follow him, as long as the military attache of the guards he offended, as long as every person who comes in from Yongding Gate, whether it is an official or a civilian, he Chen Mingxia has to kowtow once, and shout 'I Chen Mingxia is a thief', if he doesn't do it, he will whip him, so that he may remember what kind of goods he is!" ”

As soon as Zhu Youzhen's will was reached, Chen Mingxia was like five thunderbolts, he didn't want to admit that he was a thief, but now he was forced to admit that he was a thief in front of His Majesty, but now he was asked to go to Yongdingmen to kowtow to everyone who entered the city and say that he was a thief, and even civilians had to kneel, this kind of humiliation made him even more uncomfortable than killing him.

"Your Majesty, Weichen, I am also a well-educated person, your hand-picked Tanhualang, you let me kneel down to those vulgar people like this, you are making me worse than death!"

Chen Mingxia cried loudly.

"I just want you to live worse than death, in my eyes, you are not even as good as them! What kind of well-educated people, there are many well-educated people, but when you are a well-educated person of a thief, you Chen Mingxia is the most typical one! ”

After Zhu Youzhen finished speaking, he threw his sleeves out of the Qianqing Palace.

……

Chen Mingxia was dragged to the Qianqing Palace crying.

He never expected it to end like this.

He didn't understand, didn't understand how the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was different from the regent of the Qing Dynasty.

He felt that it should be his own Emperor Chongzhen who was not so wise, and he couldn't help but start scolding secretly: "Stupid faint monarch, sooner or later you will regret your actions today!" ”

No matter how disappointed and resentful Chen Mingxia was in his heart towards Zhu Youzhen, at this time he could only accept the punishment of kowtowing to every Ming scholar at Yongdingmen.

Although Beijing City has been closed, only progress is not allowed, but there will still be many people entering Beijing City every day, after all, many Han people in the suburbs of Beijing today are originally from Beijing, and later they were forcibly driven out of Beijing City by the Tartars and became the clothed servants of the banner people.

If you want to say that in this era, who hates Jianlu the most, it is naturally these Han people in Gyeonggi, after all, they are the people who have been plundered and persecuted by the banner people.

Now that Zhang Mengxi has become the queen of the Shuntian Mansion of the Ming Dynasty, even if he issued a Jun order, the houses, shops and fields of the common people in Beijing will be returned to the people's property that was encroached upon by the banner people according to the old archives of the household department and the evidence in each square.

As a result, the Han people who lived in shantytowns outside the city or in the suburbs of Beijing returned to the city one after another.

In addition, more and more Ming Guards officers and soldiers and officials have entered the capital, so these days, there are quite a few people entering the city at the Yongding Gate of the entire Beijing City.

Chen Mingxia has been compulsorily required to change into Manchu second-grade court clothes at this moment, his braids have also been forcibly tied, and the whole person has also knelt at the city gate.

However, at first, Chen Mingxia was still a little resistant and didn't want to kneel.

But the military attache of the guards guarding was naturally unceremonious, and hit him with a whip, beating Chen Mingxia's skin open.

Chen Mingxia is a literati after all, and he can't afford such pain, so when he saw an old man leading a donkey into the city, he hurriedly kowtowed: "I, Chen Mingxia, am a thief!" ”

The old man was so frightened that he couldn't do it, seeing that Chen Mingxia was still wearing an official uniform, although it was a Manchu Qing uniform, but after all, he also had six years of experience being ruled by the Manchu Qing government, so the old man instinctively wanted to kneel.

"Old man, don't kneel, he's kowtowing to you, now this is the capital master of the Ming Dynasty, he is not an official master, he is a thief who is a lackey for the Tartars, His Majesty's will, he is a thief who harms the people to kowtow to every Ming people who enter the city."

At this time, the military attache of such a guard army grabbed the old man and explained.

"So, can the little one take a bite of him?" The old man suddenly asked.

"Yes, he's better than you to lead that beast, let alone spit, just on his head."

As soon as the military attache of the Guards said this, the other officers and soldiers of the Guards defending the city couldn't help but smile and gritted their teeth, if it weren't for the strict discipline of the Guards, they would all want to squat on the ground and laugh.

"Well deserved!"

Therefore, the old man took a sip at this Chen Mingxia.

Chen Mingxia cried while wiping his sleeve: "Insulting Sven, insulting Sven!" ”

At this time, a beggar also came over, and he didn't go anymore, so he stood in front of Chen Mingxia: "Han thief, hurry up and kowtow!" ”

Chen Mingxia wanted to cry and glanced at the beggar without tears, he never thought that the old civilian man he would never look at him would spit on him, and now even the beggar is waiting for him to kowtow to him.

But he still had to knock, or he would have to be whipped again.

But at this time, Chen Mingxia kowtowed and saw that the beggar did not leave, but unbuckled his trouser belt in front of him: "Master Jun, did you just say that he is no different from a beast, I see that he is white and tender, and I have never touched a woman when he is young, can I play with him as a rabbit now." ”
