Sun Zhiqi once again bowed and paid homage, calling him holy.

Chongzhen smiled and asked again: "Sun Zhiqi, I heard that Jiannu has just entered the city, so you can't wait to shave yourself with a money rat tail hairstyle?" The next day, when I went to court, I wanted to stand in the middle of the Jiannu, but I was kicked by Azig and ate, but is there such a thing? ”

"There is such a thing." Sun Zhiqi didn't deny it.

But after a while, he said: "However, the reason why the minister shaved the money rat tail hairstyle is not because he is greedy for life and afraid of death, let alone bending his knees and barbaric, but in order to preserve the vitality of my Ming Dynasty and retain the country's capital." ”

"You're doing this to preserve Da Ming's vitality? Keeping the national capital? Chongzhen almost suspected that his ears were hallucinating, and it was rare to be able to reverse black and white to this extent.

"What the minister did was to preserve the vitality of the Ming Dynasty." Sun Zhiqi continued to say, "Jiannu is brutal, the world knows that the first thing to do after Jiannu enters the customs is to force my Ming billions of people to shave their hair and make it easy to obey, if my Ming people refuse to shave their hair and change their clothes, they will be killed immediately." ”

"So, you want to take the lead?" Chongzhen asked.

"Yes, the minister wants to take the lead." Sun Zhiqi said, "Because the minister understands a truth, as long as a person is alive, he has a chance to take revenge, but if he dies, everything will be over." ”

After a pause, he said with a smile: "No, the ministers and the people of Beizhi really welcomed the saint back, but if there is no minister to take the lead in shaving his hair and changing clothes, then Beizhi has been slaughtered into a barren land, and even if the saint takes the king to fight back to Beijing, he can only take back a piece of ruins." ”

Chongzhen said: "It's not easy for you to say this, and you will be infamous for Daming." ”

Sun Zhiqi said with a straight face: "For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, why not hesitate to ruin his reputation." ”

Hearing this, Zheng Sen, who was accompanying him, couldn't listen to it anymore, and stepped forward and said, "Holy Lord, the student really can't bear it anymore, can you take a posture in front of you?" ”

Chongzhen asked, "Zheng Sen, what do you want to do?" ”

Zheng Sen stretched out his hand and pointed at Sun Zhiqi and said, "The student wants to beat this fang." ”

"Hey, you Zheng Sen is a human, how can you be as knowledgeable as a beast." Chongzhen's words were said to Zheng Sen, but his eyes were staring at Sun Zhiqi, and Sun Zhiqi's expression immediately froze.

Zheng Sen smiled: "So it's the student Meng Lang." ”

Chongzhen walked up to Gong Dingyu again and said with a smile: "Gong Dingyu." ”

Finally, there is a little bit of face, and the chief inspector said: "The criminal minister Gong Dingyu knocked on the saint." ”

"It's rare that there are still people who know that they are criminals." Chongzhen smiled and said, "I heard that after Jiannu entered Beijing, you ran to the door of Dolgon's Mansion to ask for an official, but Dolgon scolded you for being a sinner in the Ming Dynasty and a thief in the imperial history. ”

Gong Dingyu's handsome face instantly swelled into the color of pig liver.

smiled, Chongzhen said again: "Also, in order to exonerate yourself, you are really willing to give all your concubines to Meng Xueli." ”

"Poof." Meng Xueli, who was following behind Chongzhen, had already knelt on the ground.

"Holy Lord, student Hutu." Meng Xueli kowtowed again and again like pounding garlic, "The student was confused for a while, and he just accepted Gong Dingyu's bribe, and the student sent Gu Mei away when he turned around." ”

"Gu Mei." Chongzhen smiled, "It seems that he is also one of the famous prostitutes in Qinhuaihe, right?" ”

Meng Xueli immediately understood: "The student understood, and the student sent her to the palace ...... when he turned around."

"Meng Xueli, do you think I'm fighting with you for a woman?" Chongzhen Meng turned his head, his gaze was like a knife, stabbing into Meng Xueli's eyes.

Meng Xueli instantly fell into an ice hole.

Chongzhen turned around and shouted, "All of them are arrested and put in prison pending trial!" ”

"Yes!" The soldiers of the new army behind Chongzhen agreed with a bang, and immediately rushed up to arrest people.

Zhang Jinyan, Wang Aoyong, Sun Zhiqi and other ministers instantly began to scream at a sky-high price.

"Holy Lord, the minister is wronged, the minister is wronged, the loyalty of the minister can show the sun and the moon, and the sun and the moon can be shown!"

"Sheng, the minister is really to keep the national capital for the Ming Dynasty, the Holy Lord, you can't treat a national soldier who does not hesitate to discredit his reputation for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, the Holy ......"

"Holy Lord, the minister is not guilty, the minister is not guilty!"

"Holy Lord, a minister is a meritorious hero, you can't treat meritorious heroes like this!"

But it was useless to shout louder, and the officers and men of the new army did not bird them at all.

"Gone." Chongzhen folded his horse to the side, and said, "Today, I will camp at the Asahi Temple." ”

Gao Qi caught up with Chongzhen and asked in amazement: "Long live Lord, this is all at the doorstep, why don't you just move back to the Forbidden City?" ”

"No, no." Chongzhen shook his head and said, "It's a thief and a slave, that place is too unlucky." ”

Gao Qian said: "If the old man is unlucky, the old slave will take people to carefully sweep it, but they have all returned to Beijing, how can there be any reason to live outside the city?" ”

"High companionship." Chongzhen said coldly, "Are you teaching me to do things?" ”

"Long live the old slave, that's not what the old slave meant." Gao Qiqian was so frightened that he shook his hands.

"Forgive me for not daring to have such delusions." Chongzhen snorted lightly, hit the horse and left.

Gao Qiqian wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said in his heart that it was really dangerous just now, but he still had to think of a way to save his reliable image in the eyes of Long Live Lord.

At that moment, Gao Qi dived and hit a horse to catch up with Chongzhen and said: "Long live Lord, that Gu Hengbo ......"

Chongzhen grabbed the reins of the horse, and when he looked back at Gao Qiqian again, his eyes had become cold, three points colder than just now.

"Hooray?"

Gao Qiqian was so frightened that he was at a loss, and he said it wrong?

Chongzhen said angrily: "Gao Companion, is there something wrong with you?" ”

"Before, in the Chahar grassland, you found an ugly Mongolian woman for me, and later when you passed through Yangzhou, you took it upon yourself to find two thin horses for me, and now you want to find a famous prostitute in Qinhuai for me, are you uncomfortable if you don't arrange a woman for me for a day? What is it. ”

"Long live Lord, doesn't the old slave feel that you work hard for military affairs every day, and there is no concubine around you, so it's hard work, that's why it's ......."

"Then you can't stuff all kinds of women into my side?"

Gao Qi submerged in his mouth, but said in his heart, Concubine Li is not also Qin Huaiyan's prostitute, and Concubine Ran is a toast widow, and their backgrounds are no better than Gu Mei, right?

"Do you want to talk about Li Xiangjun and Ran Sanniang?"

Chongzhen said angrily: "The two of them are different. ”

Li Xiangjun was purely accidental, he was absent for a long time at that time, and normal men would not be able to stand it.

And Li Xiangjun is indeed a beauty who is one in a million, and Li Xiangjun performed well in the Battle of Xuzhou, Chongzhen was emotional and didn't hold it for a while, and then he could only make mistakes.

As for the widow Ran Sanniang, Chongzhen admitted that she was indeed hungry for her body.

However, there is another consideration for Naran Sanniang as a concubine, that is, to envelop the indigenous people of the southwestern provinces, which will have an immeasurable impact on the stability of the southwest.

To put it bluntly, this is also a political marriage.

But these words, Chongzhen can't say them to Gao Qiqian.

After a pause, he said: "Anyway, don't make any more blind arrangements in the future." ”

"The old slave obeys." Gao Qidive really has a long memory now.

But what Gao Qianqi didn't know was that at this time, there was actually a woman coveted by Chongzhen in Beijing, Bumu Butai had already run away, but Fan Wencheng's concubine was still there.

……

Pham Van Cheng Mansion.

"Xin'er Xin'er, my Xin'er."

Looking at the flower-like concubine in front of him, Fan Wencheng burst into tears.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" The little concubine hugged Fan Wencheng's neck and said with a coquettish face, "Although the Qing Dynasty is dead, with your ability, master, you can get an official position in Daming, and our family can live without food and clothing in Beijing." ”

Fan Wencheng smiled bitterly, saying in his heart that it was not so easy.

Your lord, I have done a lot of evil for the Qing Dynasty.

Even if Chongzhen is a benevolent monarch, he will never forgive.

To put it bluntly, even if Chongzhen wants to spare him, he can't spare him.

Because this involves the debate between Han and Nu and the difference between Huayi.

"Xin'er, master, I really can't bear you."

"Master, are you going to give me away?" The concubine's face changed.

"Xin'er, you also know that Chongzhen is as good as Cao Mengde."

"Master, in order to exonerate yourself, you actually want to give me to Chongzhen?"

"Give you to Chongzhen? How can I give it up, sir. Fan Wencheng shook his head and said, "Chongzhen is not worthy, he is not worthy of having such a good woman as you." ”

Hearing this, the concubine suddenly understood everything.

"Master, like you're trying to kill me?" The concubine's body slowly retreated.

Fan Wencheng took out a sharp short knife from his sleeve and said with a painful expression: "Xin'er, don't blame the master, the master is also doing this for your own good, and leaving you alone in this world will only make you taste the suffering of the world, so you should go with the master." ”

While speaking, Fan Wencheng raised his knife and rushed over.

Although the concubine wanted to run, she couldn't run fast at all with her little feet wrapped.

The concubine was quickly caught, and Fan Wencheng stabbed her through the heart with just one knife.

stabbed the concubine to death with a knife, Fan Wencheng reversed the short knife against his heart, and then slashed several times without the courage to stab down, nothing else, scared.

Fan Wencheng was gesturing when footsteps suddenly sounded outside.

Immediately, the second son Fan Chengmo rushed in, and was taken aback when he saw this scene.

"Father!" Fan Chengmo hurriedly rushed up and snatched the short knife from Fan Wencheng's hand, and then persuaded, "It's not like this, it's definitely not like this." ”

Fan Wencheng sighed and asked dejectedly, "This will be Chongzhen's already entered the city, right?" ”

"No, Chongzhen didn't enter the city, but just went to Chaoyangmen to mock Zhang Jinyan, Wang Aoyong, Sun Zhiqi, and other ministers, and then led the army to station at the Chaori Temple." Fan Chengmo said, "However, the Ming army has already controlled the inner and outer cities, and the more than 200,000 Manchu people living in the inner city have all been captured. ”

After a pause, Fan Chengmo persuaded again: "Father, my son thinks that Chongzhen looks like a Ming Jun, and he is also a rare Ming Jun, as long as he has heard of his father's virtuous name, he will definitely be extrajudicial to you, so you don't have to feel panic because you have done something for Jiannu." ”

Fan Wencheng was silent.
