"Let's go."

Liu Fangliang shouted, opened a bloody road with Liu Rukui, and ran to the city.

"Chase! Don't let the thieves escape!" Wang Jiayan and Gong Yonggu chased after them with men and horses.

After the two of them went to the city, they acted separately, one ran to the east and the other ran to the west, which was still the direction they came, Wang Jiayan and Gong Yonggu had to divide their troops to pursue.

Liu Fangliang ran to the head of Xichengtou, and the sky was already gray and bright.

The ladder and rope were still there when they came, but they weren't of much use.

Of the 100 people who came, he was now the only one left.

Victory or defeat is in a split second. It's all to blame for the faint monarch Chongzhen, if it weren't for him at the critical moment, his thousands of horses and thousands of troops would have entered the palace.

He didn't have time to sigh, and from time to time an arrow flew above his head, and Wang Jiayan chased after him with his soldiers.

Liu Fangliang gritted his teeth and jumped up, made a heel in the air, and fell into the moat with a thud......

Almost at the same time, the same sound resounded from the moat of the southwestern city of the palace.

Wang Jiayan and Gong Yonggu took the soldiers to watch the two fall into the city at the head of the city, and then went again

At dawn.

The thieves completely gave up the siege and all retreated to the imperial city on the other side of the moat, but Liu Fangliang's men and horses still formed a siege of the palace.

At this time, the battle in Miyagi was also over.

Above and below the city, inside and outside the city, including inside the moat, there were dead bodies, broken knives, blood, broken flags, trembling in the morning wind.

The water of the moat has changed color.

In the palace, Wang Jiayan and the Ming army were cleaning the battlefield.

Chongzhen had already returned to the Heart Cultivation Palace, and the Wind and Thunder Palm Han Yin and the Grass Flying Yang Wanli took turns to be on duty at the entrance of the main hall.

Wang Chengde waited with him and took a bowl of bird's nest porridge from the palace maid's hand, "Emperor, you haven't slept all night, you must be tired, drink this and rest."

This bit of fatigue is nothing to him, but he feels that his mouth is dry, Chongzhen took the bowl, tasted it, it tasted really good, drank the porridge in one go, and handed the bowl to Wang Chengen.

Wang Chengen turned around and sent the palace maid away, "The emperor almost caught the little thief Liu Fangliang in the palace this time, he definitely didn't dare to come again, so rest assured, the matter in the palace will be done by telling the old slave."

Chongzhen disagreed, "Wang Daban's words are different, Liu Fangliang is not the leader of the thieves, he is the general of the thieves, and the master of the 5th layer of the body refining realm."

Wang Chengen smiled, "Liu Fangliang is powerful, but under the sword of your Son of Heaven, the emperor is not bullshit."

"I can't say that, there are still masters among the thieves." Chongzhen was thoughtful.

He fought with Liu Fangliang, and it can be speculated about the level of force in Li Zicheng's group.

There are people who are taller than Liu Fangliang, needless to say Liu Zongmin, Tian Jianxiu, Li Guo, Hao Shaoqi, Yuan Zongdi, Gao Yigong, etc., none of these are worse than Liu Fangliang.

Chongzhen saw the box containing the silver, and the 100,000 taels of silver were still placed here, and he suddenly remembered something, "Where is the prince?"

I finally rescued him, and when I was employing people in front of me, I had to let him work for Da Ming and distract me.

This son can't be in vain, let Lao Tzu do it alone, he is watching from the side, it is a big unfilial piety.

He has no ability, Lao Tzu can teach him.

"Emperor, if you are in a hurry to rest, the old slave will go and invite the prince to come and see you." Wang Chengen said, turned around and withdrew.

As soon as Wang Chengen left, he heard Wang Jiayan's voice outside: "Your Majesty, Weichen has a plan to play."

"Be quiet, my lord, the emperor hasn't rested all night, so don't disturb." The little eunuch said.

"It's all a night of fighting, and of course this official has something important to see the emperor."

"Xuan Wang Aiqing is here."

"Yes."

Wang Jiayan came in and was about to kneel down and kowtow, Chongzhen waved his hand, "Calm down, what is the matter with Aiqing?"

"Your Majesty, I have captured hundreds of thieves and captives, and some of them are anti-armor-wearing, including that Ma Shiyao, how to deal with it

？」

"According to Weichen's opinion, cut them all down, Ma Shiyao's old department and more than 1,000 soldiers can't spare them, so they won't have trouble."

The little eunuch next to him heard it, this Ma Shiyao is not dead? Kill, kill all!

"Oh, not busy." Chongzhen thought for a while, "Take care of them first, and wait for the fate in front of the Qianqing Palace tomorrow afternoon, I have my own opinions."

Although these thieves are hateful, they will descend for a while, and they will be reversed for a while, but they can't all be beheaded, and they will be indiscriminate, especially that Ma Shiyao, since he is not dead, it is still useful.

"The Minister's decree is to retire." Wang Jiayan left the Heart Cultivation Palace, feeling that the emperor must have been ruthless to these thieves and prisoners, and tortured them very well, so that their life was worse than death!

However, the Qianqing Palace is the place where the emperor summons the emperor to meet the king of the palace of hundreds of officials, and the open space in front of the palace is very spacious.

Although the situation is unique, is this appropriate?

The court kills people and punishes evil, which is generally in the area of the noon court gate or the vegetable market, which is the ancestral system.

Wang Jiayan thought all the way, and he wanted to deal with the thieves not only to cut off his head quickly, but also to be particular. I have to say that this is also a good man among the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty.

……

"The son knocks to see his father." Zhu Cihong knelt down when he entered the hall.

As soon as the emperor waved his hand, all the eunuchs and palace maids withdrew, the palace door was closed, and Chongzhen said, "The emperor is flat, can you rest well after entering the palace?"

"Back to my father, thanks to my father and emperor for rescuing my son, I got out of the tiger's mouth, my father and his ministers fought bloodily, and my son was very sad, hating that he couldn't kill and serve the country." Zhu Cihong said it sincerely, and he looked heartbroken.

Chongzhen nodded, "The emperor has only cared about studying all these years, and his martial arts have been put aside, how did this be, in the future, to govern the country and help the people, he has to rely on cultural and martial arts, all of which are indispensable."

Zhu Cihong's face was ashamed, "My father taught me a lesson, but the art industry of his sons has been abandoned...... It's all because Erchen didn't learn martial arts when he was young, and now he can't kill the enemy side by side with his father, and the son's sin is also a crime."

Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty Chongzhen
