The emperor is already unable to fly, and the ministers are also looking for their own way out.

Chen Xinjia, the secretary of the military department, inspected the city defense and suddenly saw a scene that surprised him.

Cao Huachun, the emperor's most favored internal eunuch, the eunuch of the Admiral Dongchang, and the governor of Jingying Rongzheng, actually nodded at a plainly dressed person.

Still at the head of the city, in front of so many people.

Chen Xinjia's eyes rolled, and he had already guessed something.

He hurried forward and asked them what they were doing.

Cao Huachun pulled Chen Xinjia aside, pointed to his left sleeve with his right hand, and whispered:

"The Son of Heaven of Dashun was merciful and sent Dugong Du to negotiate and discuss how to settle our emperor of the Ming Dynasty."

"What?" Chen Xinjia was dumbfounded.

"Don't disclose this matter to others, our family only told you secretly because you were recommended by Yang Gebu before your death."

"I, I'm not going to say it."

Chen Xinjia's face turned red and white, completely at a loss, and slipped away in a hurry.

Cao Huachun looked at Chen Xinjia's back in a panic and couldn't help but sneer.

This is the Ming Dynasty's military department book, what a thing.

Cao Huachun met with Du Xun, the envoy of Dashun, and Du Xu's condition was that the faint monarch must abdicate.

However, what Cao Huachun reported to Chongzhen was: Li Zicheng asked to be crowned king.

Chongzhen was overjoyed and immediately agreed.

Cao Huachun took Chongzhen's edict and handed it to Du Xun.

Du Xun was shocked, and while sending someone to hand over the edict to Li Zicheng, he continued to ask Cao Huachun to re-enter the palace and tell Emperor Chongzhen that he must abdicate.

Cao Huachun refused.

It dragged on until the evening.

Li Zicheng couldn't wait and began to arrange the siege.

Cao Huachun saw that the fires outside the city were gathering more and more, and he knelt in front of Du Xun in fright:

"Master Du, we are internal eunuchs, and we are all eating and serving the emperor's bowl of rice. As soon as the Son of Heaven dies, our family will have nowhere to go. I beg Du Ye to look at the old feelings and show our family a clear way."

Du Xun helped him up and didn't fall into the ground: "Back then, he was taken care of by Father-in-law Cao, but now there is only one way." He pointed to the city gate.

Cao Huachun nodded.

A quarter of an hour later, the Zhangyi Gate was opened, and the Dashun army entered the city.

Because the officials of the Ming Dynasty were too busy to take care of themselves, they did not report the matter to Chongzhen.

Chongzhen did not know until Liu Wenbing entered the palace that the Dashun army had entered the city and took over the city defense of the Beijing Division.

I even knew that Li Guozhen had surrendered.

Previously, no one had told Chongzhen that Li Guozhen led the three battalions of the Beijing Division to surrender to the Shun army.

This is also the reason why Chongzhen has been wandering around the city and not leaving the city in time.

Chongzhen got the news and hurriedly took the eunuch to the coal mountain and raised his eyes to look.

The city is littered with neat torches, illuminating the wide roads.

It's over, which means that there has been a smooth transition in the city.

At this moment, Chongzhen thought of the tragedy of the Song Dynasty royal family when Jingkang's shame occurred.

Chongzhen hurriedly got down the coal mountain, found a sword at random, carried it, and forced the concubines and princesses, including Queen Zhou, to hang themselves one by one.

The young princess also let the eunuch strangle her to death.

Then he called his three sons, who were still children:

"When the city is broken, you will be reduced to a people, and each one flees for his life. I have ordered Zhu Chunchen to protect you from leaving, but the future is confused, so you can do it yourself."

Looking at the three sons, the eldest Zhu Cijiong is only nine years old, the youngest Zhu Cijiong is only six years old, and the youngest Zhu Cijiong is only five years old.

Listening to them shouting "Father", Chongzhen's tears rained down: "After you escape, no matter what kind of official you meet in office, the older ones will be called 'master, and the younger ones will be called 'people' Xianggong, and when you meet ordinary people, the old ones will be called 'Dad, and the younger ones will be called 'old brother'. When I met a reader, it was called 'Sir.'

, when I met a soldier, I called 'Master Jun'."

After Chongzhen finished speaking, he hugged them, and then asked his henchman eunuch to take them away.

At this time, Chongzhen suddenly remembered that his sister-in-law, Empress Dowager Zhang, was still there. Carrying a sword again, he went to Empress Zhang's bedroom and forced her to hang herself.

After Empress Dowager Zhang committed suicide, Chongzhen walked in the dark like a ghost, preparing to find a suitable place to commit suicide.

Wang Chengen was bold, knelt in front of Chongzhen, and blocked the emperor's way:

"Your Majesty, ants are still stealing life, let alone Your Majesty. It's dark now, and the thieves haven't fully controlled the Jingshi. The slave and maid dared to ask His Majesty to change into the clothes of the inner prison, and the slave and maid escorted His Majesty out of the city, and then went east to Shanhaiguan."

Chongzhen lowered his head and looked at him stunned: "Hong Chengchou, an ungrateful person, has long colluded with Yang Chengying and refused to come to King Qin. If I go to Shanhaiguan, it is equivalent to falling into the hands of Yang Chengying, what is the difference between falling into the hands of thieves and falling into the hands of thieves." Look at the book

"Your Majesty, it's very different." Wang Chengen said, "Yang Cheng should not move outside the Guan, because the Guanning army once deeply blessed the emperor, and if it rebels, it may cause a split in the Guanning army. When Your Majesty arrives at Shanhaiguan, Yang Chengying will not only not kill Your Majesty, but will also respect Your Majesty."

"Do you want me to be Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty?!"

"To live is to have hope, Your Majesty."

This sentence instantly touched Chongzhen, and hope ignited in his heart.

Indeed, the Liaodong Army, which is now guarding western Liaoning, was formerly known as the Guanning Army. Many of these generals were received by Chongzhen and rewarded.

Including Yang Chengying, many officials who served in Liaodong were also Ming courtiers, some of whom were among the Jinshi, and some of whom were among the people.

Even if Yang Chengying could pull his face down and hurt him, Princess Yanen would not agree.

What about being a puppet emperor, he is still very young and in no hurry.

Thinking of this, Chongzhen immediately decided: "Go, take me to change clothes, let's go out of the city."

Wang Chengen served Chongzhen in the Wenhua Hall and changed into eunuch clothes, and then went to Chaoyang Gate to the east of Beijing with a group of eunuchs.

Chaoyang Gate is the city gate where the grain enters and exits, and the rations of the people in the capital basically come from here, and there are eunuchs who guard the town.

The Dashun army has not yet come, but the eunuch who guards the town said that it was too dark, and he would be released after dawn after verifying his identity.

Wang Chengen was anxious and was about to theorize, but was pulled by Chongzhen.

Chongzhen already understood that the eunuchs here wanted to ask for merit from the thieves, so they refused to let anyone pass.

Then they went to Andingmen, and the most traveled in Andingmen was a dung truck, because near the Temple of Earth was the main dung field of Jingshi.

Chongzhen felt that there was a chance to go to Andingmen.

Sure enough, the Anding Gate was left unguarded.

The soldiers defending the city and the eunuchs of the town guarded all fled.

Chongzhen immediately ordered the eunuchs to go out, lift the huge deadbolt, and leave here.

As a result, this group of pampered eunuchs couldn't exert any strength, and they couldn't open the city gate for half a day.

Chongzhen's hopes were dashed.

He took Wang Chengen back to the coal mountain and walked to an old crooked neck tree in the wind.

When he arrived at the bottom of the tree, Chongzhen took off a gown on his body, bit his fingers, and wrote a testament in blood instead of ink:

The ministers mistakenly died, I had no face to see the first emperor underground, I would cover my face, let the thief split the corpse, and don't hurt one of my people.

Subsequently, with the help of Wang Chengen, he hanged himself from the old crooked neck tree.

Wang Chengen kowtowed to Chongzhen's body, then hanged himself from a nearby tree and followed Chongzhen underground.
