In Hauge's palace, smoke wafted out, and Abatai, Turai, and Hong Chengchou accompanied Hauge to drink.

"You're doing a good job!" Haoge's face was slightly red, and he was full of interest, "Bai Yintu's three sons, Shi Tingzhu's sons and grandsons, are also well-behaved, and this king is very satisfied." ”

"It's providence that things are going so well! When Shengjing settles down this winter, and Mingchun goes south to kill Chongzhen, the regent can go further! Abatai said, taking advantage of the wine.

"One step further?" Hauge snorted, "How can I go any further, my knighthood, it's over." ”

"That can't be!" Abatai seems to be really drunk, "The emperor is young, his health has not been good, I heard a few days ago that he is sick again, and he hasn't studied for two days." ”

"Children, it's normal to get sick."

"That's normal or not, it's not the prince's decision!" Abatai drank a bowl of wine and burped.

"Hahaha...... Uncle Seven laughed, let's let the Tai Hospital say it, this king doesn't know medical skills. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, the words of the hospital are more credible. Hahaha......" Abatai laughed, poured himself another bowl of wine, and drank it all, "This king...... Die without regrets. ”

After that, he fell asleep on the table.

"Hahaha...... Hauge also laughed, "Why doesn't Mr. Hong drink?" Drink with this king! ”

Hong Chengchou's eyes changed, and he said: "I have to act the day after tomorrow, and the slave has to prepare a lot, so I won't drink!" The big thing is done, and the slave will accompany the prince to drink again! ”

"Mr. Hong is still cautious, even so, this king will not drink. It is decreed that no one shall drink alcohol for these three days without the command of the king. ”

Before Hauge could put down the wine bowl, he saw a coated servant running in panting.

"Lord Wang, Horqin's cavalry is 50 miles outside the city! Bandi sent someone to ask if he would continue to approach Shengjing. ”

Bandi was the eldest son of Prince Horqin and Ta, and after Heta was "killed" in Jinzhou, Hauge appointed Bandi as Prince of Korqin.

What he didn't know was that for the sake of this winter's war, Chongzhen had already sent civil and military officials to return to Horqin with Heta.

When Hauge heard that Bandi had arrived, his drunkenness suddenly disappeared halfway, and he fell into deep thought, not knowing whether he would make a decision to raid the palace today.

But he looked at the muddy Abatai and immediately gave up on his thoughts.

"Hey, at a critical time, Mr. Hong still knows how to measure!"

Hong Chengchou suddenly heard such a sentence, combined with the words of the minion, he immediately knew what Haoge meant, he paused and said: "Tomorrow at noon, maybe something can happen!" ”

"Oh? What does Mr. Hung mean? ”

"It's cold outside the city, it's not appropriate to let Horqin's men and horses stay for a long time, it's not good for combat power and momentum. Besides, the date we set was originally to wait for the people of Horqin, and now that we are fully prepared, why don't we ......"

Hauge was greatly moved when he heard this, he couldn't wait for a long time, if he didn't have enough confidence, he would have rushed into the palace to control the government.

Now Hong Chengchou's words gave him enough confidence, and he immediately slapped the table: "Go and tell Bandi that before noon tomorrow, you must rush to the outside of Shengjing City." ”

"Huh!"

Abatai was awakened by the sound of slapping the table, looked up blankly, and muttered: "The emperor is sage!" The emperor is blessed with all the blessings! This king must be ...... to the ground."

Before he finished speaking, he fell into a deep sleep again.

"Drag him out and induce vomiting!" Hauge listened to Abatai's drunken words, and was noncommittal, "Feed him more sobering soup, and before tonight, I have to make him sober!" ”

In the afternoon, it snowed heavily in Shengjing, and the cold wind howled, freezing everyone to hide in the house.

In less than an hour, nearly half a meter of snow had accumulated on the ground.

Hong Chengchou looked at the heavy snow and walked out of the Haoge Palace, he didn't take a car, just walked on foot, and his thoughts drifted out far away.

He thought of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, the battle of Songjin and the sight of the military might of Jianyu, the unruly warlords under his command, the defeat of the army and the capture of hunger strike, and the shaving of hair and the ......

originally thought that he had made the right choice, although he left a reputation for eternity, but at least he was still a supreme minister, and he could still make contributions.

I don't want to be in just two years, under the attack of Li Zicheng and the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen can be reborn in a desperate situation. He didn't reuse any high-ranking official, but did it himself, and actually turned the situation around the world.

Now, he is in the whirlpool of the power struggle in the Qing Dynasty, recalling the high spirits when he set out in Beijing, and faintly regrets it.

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, and now he can only go all the way to the dark, as long as he helps Dolgon kill the brainless Haoge, Daqing may still have the possibility of recovery.

It's a pity that Dolgon has no children, and Duoduo, who is most enthusiastic about helping him to ascend the throne, has been deeply trapped in the Ming Kingdom, and Dolgon seems to have lost the mind of fighting for the throne, otherwise, he can be a minister of the dragon!

Even if you can't live in the Central Plains, being a prince in this one-third of an acre of land in Liaodong can be regarded as a good death!

……

"It's snowing again, no wonder Jianlu is bent on going south to loot, it's really a hard time."

Zhou Yingluo looked at the snow on the ground that was nearly one meter thick, and then looked at the large snowflakes that kept falling in the sky, and sighed.

"Poverty is not a reason to do evil." When Chongzhen heard this, he stepped forward and said.

"I'm just saying, it's not that they're right to enter the customs and plunder. Don't we Han people also have to suffer from the cold and drought? ”

"yes. In a way, there was also a specific reason for the entry of the Jianyu and the Mongols. If it weren't for not surviving, who would want to risk their lives and travel thousands of miles to wage war. Chongzhen sighed.

"I think that if Liaodong is leveled in one fell swoop this time, Liaodong can divide the fields like Guannai, and the people here have enough food and clothing, and the murderous intention will naturally be smaller."

Chongzhen looked at Zhou Yingluo with a surprised look, he really didn't expect this little girl to say such a thing.

"Why are you looking at me like this, it's quite penetrating......" Zhou Yingluo looked at Chongzhen's eyes and stared at herself like a fire, very weak-hearted.

"You're right!" Chongzhen nodded, retracting his gaze at the same time. "I want to let the people who migrate from the Guannei to the Guanwai and give them five times the land compared to the Guannai, which can not only change the structure of the inhabitants here, but also make the people here live a prosperous life, and Liaodong will be stable."

"Your Majesty...... Sure enough, I love the people like a son......" Zhou Yingluo looked at Chongzhen, and there was a different kind of brilliance in her eyes.

"Your Majesty! Emperor! ”

A hurried voice interrupted their conversation, and it turned out to be Xiong Wei.

"What's the matter?"

"Emperor Qi, the forward cavalry of the army has arrived 50 miles outside Shengjing City, and Bandi has already made contact with Haoge.

We will also be able to reach Shengjing City before sunset tomorrow afternoon. ”

"What did Hauge tell Bandy?" Chongzhen asked urgently.

"Haute asked Bandi to rush outside Shengjing City before noon tomorrow!" Xiong Wei said excitedly.

"Good! Looks like Hauge can't wait! Chongzhen laughed, "Order, the whole army to speed up the march and strive to rush to Shenyang at noon tomorrow!" ”

Xiong Wei smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, the snow is so heavy, the itinerary of the army must be greatly affected!" ”
