In the city of Beijing, above the Fengtian Temple.

Li Zicheng sat on the dragon chair a little lazily, looking at the people below, but his eyes were mainly focused on the two people, it was Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng.

Even if they were tied up by five flowers and watched by the generals and others, the two of them were still not afraid, standing there proudly, their chests were very high, and they looked like they would rather die than give in, Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng spit out disdainful words one after another, and looked at Li Zicheng with contempt.

"Hmph~ It's just a group of reckless people, even if they capture the capital, it is impossible to sit on this great river and mountain, don't want me Li Guozhen to help the abuse!"

"Haha... However, Uncle Xiangcheng is right, although I, Wu Linzheng, am a nobody, I am not willing to be in the company of you and other thieves, don't want me to give in! ”

In an instant, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense, Li Zicheng's advisers were better, the generals didn't do it, they all glared angrily, Liu Zongmin strode out, "Qiang", he directly pulled out his saber, and the dissatisfied words burst out.

"NND, one sentence at a time, what are the anti-thieves, what is wrong with our Li Jiajun? It's against you, Lao Tzu has to kill you two rats! ”

Liu Zongmin's face was full of indignation, and the more he talked, the more angry he became, and then he said: "I think that my Li Jiajun, under the leadership of King Chuang, has never harassed the people, and has brought a happy life to the people of the world, so that they can see the hope of living, what have you done for the people of the world?" ”

While speaking, Liu Zongmin had already come to the front, and put the big knife on the neck of Li Guozhen, who looked relatively weak, and just wanted to make a move, but was stopped by Li Zicheng.

"Zong Min, don't be rude, immediately retreat to the side!"

"Humph!"

Although Liu Zongmin's nose let out an unwilling rude breath, he still obeyed the order, honestly retreated, and glared at the two fiercely, as if to warn, you two give me honesty, otherwise, King Chuang will not be able to drink you, and Lao Tzu will have to cut you.

At this time, Li Zicheng walked down the stone steps and came to the side of the two, with a three-point smile on his face, and even untied the rope on Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng, and said sincerely: "Two, now that the world is in ruins, and the people of Li are still in the midst of natural and man-made disasters, and they urgently need to change their situation, don't you want to do something for the people at all?" ”

Obviously, Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng's resolute expressions softened a little, glanced at each other, nodded slightly, and the former then spoke representatively: "King Chuang, if it is not difficult for the two of us to surrender, we only need to agree to three conditions." ”

"Hmm... Let's talk about it first..."Li Zicheng pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.

"First, you must not kill Zhu Cihong, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, as well as King Yong and King Ding; second, not to infringe on the imperial tombs of the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, and not to damage the surrounding grass and trees; Third ......"

Speaking of this, Li Guozhen suddenly stopped, hatred flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Du Xun and Cao Huachun and other eunuchs, Wu Linzheng directly answered: "Third, those eunuchs who surrendered in the Ming Dynasty are all disloyal, unjust, unkind, and unrighteous people, and they should be killed immediately. ”

Hearing these words, Liu Zongmin, who was about to be angry again, died down, and the people around him breathed a sigh of relief, revealing a hint of appreciation, but Du Xun and Cao Huachun and others suddenly became nervous, and their hearts were raised to their throats, and they just wanted to say something, but they were stopped by Li Zicheng's words, and they were all like falling into an ice cave, and their bodies were trembling.

"Come on, press down Du Xun and the others, put them in prison, and behead them in public on a certain day to set an example."

The faint words, for Cao Huachun and the others, were like a call from hell, which made them tremble, and they kept shouting: "King Chuang, spare your life!" King Chuang, spare your life... We've done a great job......"

However, no matter how Cao Huachun, Du Xun and others shouted, they still couldn't change the facts, they were suppressed by the soldiers, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became relaxed.

"Hehe... It seems that the slaughter of those eunuchs is what everyone wants! ”

Li Zicheng smiled freely, sighed, and then set his eyes on Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng again, and continued: "Don't worry, not only the crown prince Zhu Cihong, King Ding and King Yong, but also other royal relatives and nobles, as long as they are not traitors and evildoers, do not cause trouble to the people, and no one is entangled in lawsuits, I, Li Zicheng, will never be embarrassed by them." ”

In an instant, the arrogant and rude attitude of Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng suddenly disappeared without a trace, and their hearts were even more relieved and became faintly excited.

However, with Li Zicheng's next words, one of their hearts hung again.

"However, although we don't kill them, it doesn't mean that their family property will not be confiscated, and the fields, real estate, rice, grain, money and silver will still be collected and distributed to the people of the world."

Looking at Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng's unnatural expressions, Li Zicheng added: "Although you can rest assured, when you confiscate the family property of those royal relatives and nobles, you will also leave them a little money, silver and food, so that they can barely survive and survive." ”

Hearing this, Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng breathed a real sigh of relief, put down their hearts, fell to their knees, and prostrate: "King Xie Chuang!" ”

"Hey, you two, you don't have to make such a big gift!"

Li Zicheng waved his big hand, and while saying this loudly, he hurriedly helped the two of them up, and continued: "As the saying goes, a man has gold under his knees, and he kneels to the sky and his parents. Moreover, from today onwards, in the place ruled by Li Jiajun, there is no bowing ceremony not only between the monarch and the minister, but also between the monarch and the people, and between the officials and the people. ”

Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng were shocked, and began to be impressed by Li Zicheng's style of acting, since the dynasties, in order to show his supreme authority, the emperor has not pushed the bow to the extreme?

However, the king in front of him said that he was wasted, and there was no taste of joking.

At this moment, Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng looked at each other again, nodded heavily to each other, showed a resolute face, and seemed to have made a decision from the heart, turned their heads to look at Li Zicheng, became more and more respectful, tidied up their clothes, bowed and bowed, and their solemn and serious words echoed in the hall.

"King Chuang, please accept this worship, from now on, the two of us will follow the work of dogs and horses, and you will be punished by heaven!"

"Hehe... Hurry up, please! ”

Li Zicheng's heart blossomed, but he still pretended to be calm, helped the two of them up again, and said loudly with concern: "I haven't been home for many days, let's go back and have a look, so as not to worry about my family!" ”

"Thank you, King Chuang!"

Li Guozhen and Wu Linzheng left, Li Zicheng's face was full of joy, at this time, Tian Jianxiu walked up, looked at the back of the two leaving, nodded lightly, and said approvingly: "King Chuang, although the two of them are interceding for the royal family of the previous dynasty, but the three conditions are greatly beneficial to us, we can win the hearts of the people, and better receive many state capitals and counties in the south of the Yangtze River." ”

Li Zicheng nodded lightly, with a three-point smile on his face, which can be regarded as a response and acquiescence to Tian Jianxiu's words.
