Chapter 478: I just agreed

This is the voice of the vast majority of people, and some people have seen Song Xiance's deeper intentions, and go to Wuchang Mansion, not only to test Zuo Mengeng's surrender army, but also to let them leave the river.

The most important thing is that with so many ready-made warships, or the one that is intact, the Great Shun Dynasty will be able to form a real sailor.

However, everyone is not broken, after all, there are so many people in the house, and there are many people in the south, and if they say deep-seated words, it is easy to reach the ears of Zuo Mengeng and others, and when the time comes, it will not be good.

Of course, everyone also knows the truth of the speed of soldiers, and knows that Zhang Xianzhong's ambition will never be satisfied with just one Wuchang Mansion, with his greedy attributes, he will definitely gain an inch, get Longwangshu, and attack other places.

Hangzhou Mansion, within the city of Hangzhou.

In the palace of King Lu Zhu Changshu, in the study, there were only three people: Zhu Changshu, Chen Hongfan and Zhang Bingzhen.

At this moment, Zhu Changshu faced the two of them, sitting there dejectedly, his eyes were empty and godless, as if dead ashes, Chen Hongfan showed a complicated face, and said with emotion: "Lord Wang, when the lower official came back, he received the news that the Dashun army had entered Zhejiang, occupied Huzhou Mansion and Jiaxing Mansion one after another, and now the army is in Hangzhou Mansion. Also, Lord Wang, Xia Guan has just come back, I don't know if it's true, Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng, Zhu Dadian and others have fled one after another, and have already left Hangzhou Mansion, may I ask Lord Wang, is this true? ”

Zhu Changshu's expression became more and more depressed, he drooped his head slightly, spit out two words heavily, word by word, and replied almost in despair: "Really... of..."

Obviously, whether it is Chen Hongfan or Zhang Bingzhen, even if they have heard some gossip a long time ago, they are still inevitably angry in their hearts, so angry that the roots of their teeth crack, and their whole faces are gloomy.

At this time, Zhu Changshu was cleaning up his mood, beating his spirits, pretending to smile easily, but it was more ugly than crying, and his voice was a little trembling and asked, "Master Chen, I don't know how things are going on this trip?" Did Li Zicheng agree to negotiate peace? ”

I have to say that although they are very calm on their faces, Chen Hongfan and Zhang Bingzhen still have ghosts in their hearts, and in the face of Zhu Changshu's inquiry, they still can't help but glance at each other, feeling apprehensive and guilty, nodding their heads imperceptibly, as if they had reached some kind of consensus tacitly, Chen Hongfan replied: "Lord, Li Zicheng did not agree." ”

In an instant, Zhu Changshu's mood fell to the bottom, and his expression could no longer be described as ugly.

However, Chen Hongfan's words did not stop, and the next words added a layer of frost to the current situation, and Zhu Changshu's whole person became a little numb.

"Moreover, Lord Wang, the reason why Li Zicheng let us come back is that he wants us to bring a word to the prince......"

Chen Hongfan couldn't help but hesitate, Zhu Changshu seemed to have guessed something, but he still asked as if he was verifying: "What words?" ”

"That, that, Lord Wang, Li Zicheng asked us to bring you a message, hoping that you can take the initiative to surrender."

As soon as the words fell, a layer of fine sweat broke out on Chen Hongfan's forehead, and the whole person had a feeling of prostration.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Bingzhen could understand Chen Hongfan's mood, without the slightest hint of compulsion, but with some admiration, and at the same time, he also knew that it was time to play by himself, so he had to bite the bullet, and then said: "Lord, Li Zicheng said that as long as you are willing to take the initiative to surrender, there will be no harm." Moreover, he also made a guarantee that as long as you are willing to join the prince and open the city gate to welcome the Dashun army, he will not move the royal ancestral hall and can also keep the emperor's tomb safe. ”

At this moment, Zhu Changshu's whole person was on the verge of collapse, there was some trance, the reversal of the situation, and the continuous deterioration, those civil and military generals in Hangzhou had almost run, one blow after another, making Zhu Changshu sensitive at the same time, not only nervous, but also panicked.

At this time, after a short rest, Chen Hongfan was not so scared and nervous, he was almost able to let go, and then said bluntly: "Lord Wang, there are not many choices left for us, no matter where we flee, we are just dying, and in the end, we will not escape the palm of the Great Shun Dynasty." ”

"Moreover, Lord Wang, you are a great sage, you have great wisdom, you must be able to see the situation clearly, Li Zicheng sits on the world, it is a matter of time. In this case, it is better to take the initiative to surrender, so that you can still keep the royal ancestral hall and cemetery, and it can be regarded as an explanation to your ancestors. ”

Zhu Changshu covered his head, only feeling a headache and swelling, and didn't know how to choose?

Suddenly, Zhu Changshu didn't know why, so he calmed down, looked straight at Chen Hongfan, his eyes became sharp, and asked in a deep voice: "It's okay to let this king surrender, but can he Li Zicheng still guarantee the safety of the lives of the various vassal kings?" ”

Call~!

Chen Hongfan and Zhang Bingzhen both secretly exhaled a long breath, glanced at each other, an inexplicable light flashed in their eyes, smiled knowingly, and turned to a difficult face, the former replied hesitantly: "Lord, Li Zicheng once had an explanation, for those princes who are traitorous and evil, and the people of the people, they must be publicly tried and give an explanation to the people of the world. ”

Chen Hongfan couldn't help but soothe, and then added: "Moreover, even if some princes will not be tried by the public and their lives can be guaranteed, their government land, land, family property, etc., will still be confiscated......"

Before Chen Hongfan finished speaking, he was interrupted impatiently by Zhu Changshu.

"Lord Chen, you don't need to say this, this king also knows, or knows some of the policies of the Great Shun Dynasty to give preferential treatment to officials of the previous dynasty, as long as they are not traitors and evildoers, they will not be investigated, as long as they pass their official exams, they can become officials......"

As he spoke, Zhu Changshu became stunned, his expression was a little complicated, as if he was sad, like emotion, as if he was complaining, and he turned around and muttered: "If the emperor can carry out the reform of the rule of officials, if the emperor can reduce the taxes of the people, if the emperor does not believe the flattery of those traitorous villains, can be loyal to the ministers, and believe in good generals, there is no need to be in such a hurry, and the Ming Dynasty will not fall to this." ”

One bite for the emperor, one if for a mouthful, how could Chen Hongfan and Zhang Bingzhen not hear it, who is King Lu complaining about?

Who else but Emperor Chongzhen?

As a bystander, the two of them saw very clearly that although the defeat of the Ming Dynasty was the responsibility of the Tartars, it was not the main reason, at most it had a catalytic effect.

The Ming Dynasty has at least two million troops, no matter how powerful the Tartars are, even if one is ten, under the strength of the Ming army, Huang Taiji will not be able to fight, and the use of crowd tactics can also consume life and death.

After all, the real strength of the Tartars is only 100,000!

Therefore, the reason for the decay of the Ming Dynasty is that there are many harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes inside and outside, which have long overwhelmed the people and have to resist.

For a while, the mood of the three of them became extremely heavy, and while they felt a lot of emotion in their hearts, they couldn't help shaking their heads again and again, and sighed helplessly from time to time, history can't be repeated, there are not so many ifs.

Just when the atmosphere was becoming more and more depressing, Zhu Changshu coughed lightly twice, and suddenly threw out a sentence, which made Chen Hongfan and Zhang Bingzhen both stunned, stunned for a while, and looked incredulous, feeling that things came so suddenly and so quickly.

"Okay, Lord Chen, early tomorrow morning, I will send someone to Huzhou Mansion to inform them and let Li Jin and them come to accept Hangzhou Mansion."
