Chapter 51 The outside must first be at ease
Ancient emperors have always paid attention to cultural inheritance.
Since the pre-Qin period, the Qin Dynasty has set up a gold and stone room to store cultural relics and ancient books, and build palaces with gold and stone to prevent fires.
The places where the Han court collected books include Tianlu Pavilion, Shiqu Pavilion, Qilin Pavilion and so on.
The court collection of the Ming Dynasty was inherited from the court collection of the Song, Liao, Jin, and Yuan dynasties. When Emperor Hongwu set the capital in Nanjing and built the Forbidden City, he established the Ming Pavilion and received the collection of books from the royal study rooms such as Kuizhang Pavilion and Chongwen Pavilion in the Yuan Dynasty. Later, Zhu Di raised troops, ascended the throne and moved the capital to Beijing, and built a new Wenyuan Pavilion to collect rare books from the old collection of Nanjing Wenyuan Pavilion.
These ancient books are all unique books that have been passed down for thousands of years. In later generations, these things were basically lost after the war. Even if it is preserved, it has been tampered with several times by the Qing Dynasty. It can be said that the Qing Dynasty, as a barbarian, almost emasculated most of the Chinese culture that has been inherited for thousands of years in order to make its dominance appear orthodox.
Therefore, after Chongzhen came to Wenyuan Pavilion, Luo Ye was also very excited. These ancient books in the Ming Wenyuan Pavilion will definitely subvert the common sense of the traditional cultural and historical circles when they are put into future generations.
Chongzhen's crazy exchange, Luo Ye's crazy reception.
Seeing that there were more and more points in the account, Chongzhen's big mouth grinned to the back of his head. Luo Ye was likewise more and more excited. As a Chinese, these ancient books representing the spirit of Chinese cultural inheritance are definitely the spirit and backbone of China. In the future, you can definitely slap the faces of those sheep dogs.
"Your Majesty, the prince is here!" shouted from outside the door.
"Xuan!"
Chongzhen had already ordered that others should not enter without his approval.
So, only an old man in a eunuch uniform walked in. He looked to be in his fifties, with an old face, frosty white temples, and his eyes could not hide a sense of tiredness and worry.
"See Your Majesty!" Although it is the old man next to Chongzhen, the etiquette cannot be abolished. This is also the reason why Wang Chengen has been able to do it for so many years.
"There's no need for politeness between us. Chongzhen also waved his hand helplessly.
Wang Chengen raised his head at this time, and when he saw the emptiness around him, he was stunned. It's not like he hasn't been to this Wenyuan Pavilion, the classics in it are piled up, and sometimes it takes several days to find an ancient book, but now, it's ...... The whole palace is cleaner than the face. Could it be that he has recruited thieves? Or did His Majesty have the idea of moving the capital and let people move away in advance?
Thinking so in his heart, he didn't forget what Chongzhen had ordered before, and said: "Your Majesty, the way back has been found, and in case of an accident, you can immediately leave the capital from the secret passage and go to Nanjing." β
Wang Chengen took out a map and marked this route.
Chongzhen glanced at it, and his gaze fell on a markβ"Coal Mountain".
The corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, and his forehead was already bruised.
"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong with this route?" The cold sweat on Wang Chengen's forehead fell, and it was the first time he had seen Chongzhen's expression.
"Nothing!"
Chongzhen waved his hand and took a deep breath before suppressing the anger in his heart.
At this time, Chongzhen had already learned his fate from the system, if history did not change, a few days later, he would hang himself on the crooked-necked tree in the coal mountain! No one, in this case, could not be calm. If you don't get the system and have the ability to change your fate, anyone who learns that they will die in a few days can't be indifferent.
What does this mean? It shows that this route is problematic.
If you can really reach Nanjing smoothly, you may not be able to gain a foothold, and the big deal is also a three-legged situation. However, he chose to hang himself in the coal mountain, which shows that he has completely lost hope. I'm afraid that those princes and ministers don't want to go to Nanjing by themselves. Yes, take your own head to the traitor to receive a reward for the king or follow the king of a dead country, this choice is probably understood by children.
Especially when I saw the record: "After Chongzhen's death, there were 30 ministers who cried and worshipped, and 60 people who worshipped but did not cry, and the rest were all ignored." Chongzhen couldn't hide his anger.
He died, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, the capital nobles, there were only a few dozen people who cried and worshiped him, and the others all pretended not to see it. How sad?
"Cheng'en!" Chongzhen said earnestly, "Now, you are the only one I can trust. β
"Your Majesty, there are so many ministers in the court......"
Chongzhen waved his hand and interrupted: "Don't talk about those two-faced things, now they are probably already scheming, how to exchange me, the emperor, for greater benefits! Do you know, why did I ask you to come here alone? That's because the guards around me have long been bought off by people outside, and once we evacuate, I'm afraid we won't be able to go far and be blocked!"
How could this be...... "If that's the case, then isn't the evacuation route he designed...... He almost became a sinner for the ages! The cold sweat on Wang Chengen's head came down! Just, how dare they? Aren't they also ministers of the Ming Dynasty? Wang Chengen couldn't understand that he was just a eunuch, and he had been attached to Chongzhen all his life, and if Chongzhen said a word, he would die, and if Chongzhen wanted him to live, he would live. This is also the biggest difference between eunuchs and ministers. This is why the emperor of the Ming Dynasty liked to use eunuchs. However, for those foreign ministers, changing the emperor is no different from changing the boss.
"Let's go, we can't go. Therefore, if you want to survive and want the Ming Dynasty not to die, you can only strike first and destroy this group of two-faced and back-to-back things!"
"The slave and maid must be smeared with liver and brain, and then die!"
"I don't need you to die, there are not many loyal people like you, how can I be willing to let you die? Let's live well, watch those bastards die first!" Chongzhen even burst out with foul language.
After taking a deep breath, he slowly calmed down and said: "If you want to protect yourself, you must first clear the palace, otherwise every move in the palace will be under the noses of others, and you will not be able to sleep well." If you go to give an order, you will say, the traitors hit the capital, and I, as the emperor, cannot sit idly by, let the palace and all the guards gather at the Qianqing Gate, and I will lead the guards to defend the imperial city!"
As soon as this news came out, the entire palace was jumping, and everyone was nervous, especially the harem concubines who had been visited by Chongzhen before, and they were nervous, couldn't it be that the traitors really hit the Forbidden City?
Naturally, the news of the gathering of Ouchi's guards also spread to the outside through some eyeline.
Outside the palace, in a luxurious mansion, almost half of the civil and military ministers gathered.
"It seems that Your Majesty is preparing to resist to the death!"
"That's fine, wouldn't it be nice for us to directly capture Your Majesty and dedicate it to King Chuang and knight the king at that time?"
"Do you want to bear the name of killing the monarch and leave a stench for 10,000 years?"
"If Your Majesty chooses to fight to the death, and we as courtiers surrender, won't we make the world laugh at it? It's a long journey from Beijing to Nanjing, and it's extremely dangerous, and if Your Majesty encounters any danger along the way, it won't matter to us!"
