In the Taihe Palace, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen was sitting on his dragon chair, and he had not been to court for several days.

Today's ascension to the dynasty, Zhu Youzhen wants to solve the matter of Li Zicheng's rebellion, this matter is like a mountain above his head, which makes him under great pressure.

Donglin's henchmen only care about their own interests, so that from the early days to the present, no one has been able to come up with any effective way to solve Li Zicheng's trouble.

After all, the Ming Dynasty is no longer the Ming Dynasty it once was, the treasury has long been empty, the emperor needs money, he needs a lot of money, military salaries, recruiting troops need money, and the officials of the court also need to sound, but since he ascended the throne, the treasury of the Ming Dynasty has been empty for a long time.

It's ridiculous to say, because he has no money, he began to collect donations from officials in the court, but the result is very ridiculous, the officials who are worth hundreds of thousands of taels, more than a thousand taels, less than hundreds of years, the most ridiculous is Chongzhen's father-in-law Zhou Kui, Chongzhen's father-in-law is not thin at all for his father-in-law, Zhou Kui is named Jiadingbo, serving as the Soldiers and Horses, "given to Suzhou Fengmen", has a large number of fields and houses, and even has a long-term support for a kabuki troupe, you can imagine how thick his family is.

A few are also seven or eight hundred thousand taels of silver.

Chongzhen sent the eunuch Xu Gao to inform Zhou Kui and asked him to take the lead in donating 100,000 taels of silver. Chongzhen thought to himself, no matter how Zhou Kui said it, he was also the head of the country, and he shared weal and woe with the royal interests of the Ming Dynasty, not to mention 100,000 taels, or even 200,000 taels.

But what he never expected was that as soon as Zhou Kui heard that he was going to donate 100,000 taels, he immediately cried like a mourner, saying "Lao Chen's peace is more gold?" He also said that the family was so poor that he could only buy moldy rice to eat, and he insisted that he could only donate 10,000 taels, and finally knew that he couldn't run away, so he ran to the harem to find Queen Zhou for help.

Queen Zhou is Zhou Kui's daughter, and she couldn't bear to see her father crying and miserable, so she gave him 5,000 taels.

And Zhou Kui is also doing a wonderful job, he took out three thousand taels of five thousand taels and donated them, and he kept two thousand taels, this is Chongzhen's father-in-law, even his relatives, not to mention those officials.

Da Ming has fallen to such a point, and it is not to blame why he perished later.

On the way here, Xu Fan learned from Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing that more than five years had passed since he left.

Originally, in the first few years, the life of the two was relatively late, but in the next few years, because of the exclusion of the two by the officials of the DPRK and China, the eunuchs blew the wind in Chongzhen's ears, and Chongzhen became more and more distrustful of the two.

After all, whether it is Shen Lian or Lu Jianxing, they are actually not suitable to be officials, because they don't know how to cheat, or they don't have Xu Fan's ruthlessness.

So, he was framed in the back and fell to the point of being beheaded, if it weren't for Xu Fan's appearance, the two of them would probably have really fallen to the ground and died.

Just when the Manchu Dynasty was talking about it and was worried about Li Zicheng's matter, bang bang!!。

Several figures were thrown in directly from the outside and landed on the top of the main hall with a wail.

The hundred officials and Zhu Youzhen above were also attracted to the attention for the first time.

"Who is so bold as to dare to trespass on the Taihe Palace." Several military attachés immediately walked out from among the hundred officials.

The leader is Sun Chengzong, the secretary of the military department, who used to be Zhu Youxiao's teacher, and he is also a high authority in the court.

As soon as Sun Chengbin's words fell, Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing slowly walked in from outside the hall.

They were disheveled, dirty, and dressed in prison uniforms, looking embarrassed.

"It's you, shouldn't you have been beheaded?" Lu Jianxing and Shen Lian were personally beheaded by Zhu Youzhen a few days ago.

He was also present at the time, but his relationship with Shen Lian Lu Jianxing was not very good, and Zhu Youzhen was angry at the time, and no one dared to intercede, so the two of them were also put in prison, counting, today seems to be their execution day, but I didn't expect them to run directly to the Taiji Palace.

Could it be that the Praetorian Guards of the Imperial City are no longer capable of reaching such a state? He let two prisoners run in, even though the two of them used to be brocade guards.

Sun Chengbin probably never dreamed that they flew in.

When Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing heard this, the corners of their mouths turned up, and they smiled slightly, but they didn't speak.

At this moment, a purple figure slowly walked in from outside the door, it was a handsome man in his twenties, with an indescribable confidence in his body, which was unforgettable.

"With me, no one can kill my eldest brother and second brother." Xu Fan's fluttering words made the entire court amazed.

"Is that you?" Above, Zhu Youzhen also recognized Xu Fan's identity at a glance.

At the beginning, it was Xu Fan who persuaded him with a three-inch incorruptible tongue, and made Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing his henchmen.

But then Xu Fan also disappeared.

Zhu Youzhen also mentioned Xu Fan at the beginning, but he never mentioned it again, as if he forgot that Xu Fan was the number one person.

"Yes, it's me."

"I'm here today because I want the emperor to give me an explanation, why did you kill my eldest brother and second brother."

"If I am not satisfied with this explanation, I may choose to be the emperor with another person."

"Presumptuous, thief, Er'an dares to speak to His Majesty like this." As soon as Xu Fan's words came out, the hall was immediately shocked, although the Ming Dynasty had declined, Chongzhen was still the emperor, and his majesty was beyond the reach of others.

No matter how the Donglin Party colludes, they still have to protect the emperor's face.

"Wait for me to take the head." A tall and black military attache spoke up, and rushed towards Xu Fan at the same time, without Chongzhen speaking.

But not to mention the current Xu Fan, even Xu Fan when he first entered the world of embroidered spring knives, he would not take these people seriously.

After all, the so-called generals in this world are stronger in strength and speed than ordinary people, and there is no such thing as internal force at all.

In front of Xu Fan, they were no different from ordinary people.

Xu Fan thought slightly, and the internal force in his body shook violently, and an invisible ripple suddenly spread around him.

Before the military attache arrived in front of Xu Fan, he was directly knocked upside down and flew out.

slammed to the ground again, fell so much that he didn't get up from the ground for a while.

"This ..... This....... ”

"What kind of demon magic is this?"

For a while, the whole hall was shocked, because they didn't see Xu Fan do it at all.

But Lu Jianxing and Shen Lian had a calm face.

Xu Fan had just taken them to experience the feeling of flying, and in their hearts, they had already defined Xu Fan as an immortal god.

Otherwise, why did Xu Fan fly, why did it take five years to disappear, they still couldn't find out any care, why five years have passed, Xu Fan looks younger.

Except that Xu Fan is an immortal, they really don't know how to explain this.
