Chapter 346: Li Zicheng is tortured! The Ming officials who greeted the king were stunned, and they missed Chongzhen very much!

In Huangjimen Station, it was originally very lively.

Many Ming officials were all excited.

I feel that I and others have made a lot of contributions this time.

Waiting here to greet King Chuang, you will definitely be able to gain the trust of King Chuang.

The status of himself and others is definitely not as good as those who follow Li Zicheng to fight the world.

But the treatment is not particularly bad either.

After all, he and the others all welcomed the king.

King Chuang was able to take Beiping City, and all of them made a lot of effort in it.

Not to mention, in supporting Li Zicheng to ascend the throne again on the side of Beiping, many people have also made great contributions.

The new emperor ascends the throne and inherits the unification, which is a great thing to celebrate with the whole world!

After the new emperor ascended the throne, he immediately needed to grant amnesty to the world and reward his ministers.

These people, if nothing else, can at least get some rewards to a greater or lesser extent.

There is no doubt about that.

But how could he have thought that Li Zicheng's words would completely stunned all these people present.

All of a sudden, many people are wondering if they have heard it wrong and have a problem with their ears.

This...... Is it something that should be said on this occasion?

It's Li Zicheng who became the emperor, what should be said??

All of a sudden, there were a lot of joys, and this was waiting for the Dashun Heavenly Son who was in their hearts, and gave them super good rewards.

At this time, everyone was silent, and they were collectively stunned.

I really didn't expect Li Zicheng to say such a thing.

Li Zicheng was originally sitting on the dragon chair, and he still looked smiling.

At this time, after seeing the reaction of these obedient Ming courtiers, their faces became a little unpleasant.

Looking at these people, "Gree...... I said, I want you to get some military pay, and all of you are deaf? ”

As soon as Li Zicheng's habitual forehead was spoken, he immediately realized that his statement was wrong, and he hurriedly changed his words.

At this time, he is a serious emperor!

Obtained the capital of the Ming Dynasty and drove out the original emperor.

At this time, the era that belonged to the Ming Dynasty had completely passed.

In this world, the surname is no longer Zhu, but the surname is Li!

It's the world that he has become a self-made person!

At this moment, with Li Zicheng's words said again.

The Ming officials present no longer suspected that their ears had heard it wrong.

It turned out that Li Zicheng really asked them for money on such occasions!

There are so many officials, all of them are very confused.

I didn't expect that Li Zicheng would come to such a hand!

They all have the merit of supporting the throne, and it is a great thing for the new emperor to ascend the throne.

In this case, they can get a reward for saying anything.

As a result, it was good to be here with Li Zicheng.

Not only did he not have a reward, but Li Zicheng actually asked them for money in turn!

How can you play like this?

Even if it was a tyrant like Chongzhen, when he encountered the same thing, he would never do this!

Chongzhen still has some emperor's face.

Why is Li Zicheng completely not playing according to the routine?

Li Zicheng's very majestic eyes looked at these people, and he looked a little impatient in his heart.

These guys, all of them are rich and flowing.

As a result, now, I, who was the emperor, asked them for money, but they dared to hesitate here one by one.

What do they mean by that?!

Li Zicheng said this, and his eyes fell on Wang Zhixin, the big eunuch.

"I heard you're rich?

Then you should take the lead and set an example! ”

Hearing Li Zicheng's words. Wang Zhixin suddenly chuckled in his heart, and cried directly.

He knelt on the ground very numbly, and cried bitterly: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Please see me!

Before that, the slave did have some savings in her hands.

It's just that Chongzhen, the tyrant, doesn't do anything, and before leaving, he had sent someone to turn over the slave's house.

Take away everything that can be taken away from the slave's house.

Your Majesty, there is no surplus food at the slave maid's house! ”

The one who cries in the king's heart is called a sad heart, and that is called a sad one.

If you don't cry, you can't do it!

In other words, he was caught by Chongzhen before.

really raided his house and got a lot of money out of his house.

Wang Zhixin is the richest among the eunuchs in the palace.

The money in the family is comparable to that of Zhou Kui.

As a result, the money he had saved for many years suddenly became cheaper for the emperor Chongzhen.

The heart of the king is called a distress.

At the same time, he was killed.

Waiting for the emperor's wrath to come, the whole family was killed.

The result was unexpected, that Emperor Taizu Gao actually saved himself from the hands of His Majesty who was furious.

not only saved his life, but also left himself 30,000 taels of silver.

A request was also left behind.

That is, when they went south, he, the great eunuch beside Chongzhen, wanted to stay in Beiping City and stabilize the overall situation with some people.

At that time, Wang Zhixin had already cried once.

I think Emperor Taizu Gao is still quite kind.

Leave a line in your work.

At the same time, I am also glad that I can escape death and keep 30,000 taels.

He felt that by virtue of his status, after welcoming Li Zicheng, he would definitely be taken seriously.

Although 30,000 is not much, it is enough to spend for a while, and there is still a chance to make a fortune in the future.

But who would have thought that after Li Zicheng came here, he would actually ask him to pay!

Isn't this going to kill people?

How did this happen?

Chongzhen has already cut off the wealth he has accumulated over the years.

Only 30,000 taels were left.

Now that this Li Zicheng is here, if he cuts him again, how can he live?

After so many years, isn't it in vain?

"Your Majesty, slaves and slaves can only take out three thousand taels when they smash pots and sell iron, and they really can't take out more......"

The heart of the king, who was almost convulsive when he cried, finally gritted his teeth secretly and said that he wanted to donate three thousand taels of silver.

At this moment, he was really uncomfortable!

When Li Zicheng heard this, he didn't like it in his heart.

However, his gaze jumped from Wang Xinxin.

It was transferred to another official who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.

Roll call and ask him to pay.

This made Wang Zhixin secretly relieved in his heart, feeling that he should have passed the test this time!

And the people who were named also knelt down and cried poor.

scolded Chongzhen, saying that Chongzhen's tyrant was greedy and excessive.

How did he take away all his money, and said that his family was honest.

Anyway, it comes down to a word, no money!

Then, after crying poor, he gave five hundred taels of silver......

As Li Zicheng's gaze swept over, these surrendered courtiers and officials of the Ming Dynasty also cried one by one.

They all said that they were very poor and had no money in their families.

Then, after crying poorly, they gave some silver, indicating that they smashed pots and sold iron, which is all they could take out when they smashed pots and sold iron!

To tell the truth, the silver they took out was indeed not a small amount for ordinary people.

For Li Zicheng, it is really no different from sending Hanako!

He took Beiping City this time, how many people under his command are waiting to eat a wave of fat?

As a result, now, these people are picking and searching. When the silver given was added to one piece, there was not even a hundred thousand taels!

He doesn't have much money in his hands.

Many things must be done with the harvest of this attack on Beiping City.

Now the attitude of these people makes him very dissatisfied in his heart.

However, Wang Zhixin and others did not feel Li Zicheng's dissatisfaction at all.

Or maybe they feel it, but pretend they don't feel it.

At this time, they were all very dissatisfied in their hearts.

I thought that this Li Zicheng was a holy lord Mingjun.

Someone worthy of their support.

King Chuang is here, and there will be a good life!

They have to be respected everywhere!

How could I have thought that the benefits were not reaped, Li Zicheng was a dog, and he actually asked for money like Chongzhen!

But fortunately, these people had conducted some drills on this matter when they faced Chongzhen before.

They are all very skillful.

Know what to do in the face of such unreasonable demands of the monarch?

So there wasn't much panic.

The response was even smoother and more perfect than before, when Chongzhen asked them for money.

Moreover, they felt that with their methods, Li Zicheng would definitely not be able to ask them for money again.

After all, this matter is really Li Zicheng's fault.

After ascending the throne, he didn't say anything about the rewards for them, and turned around and asked them for money.

And they were all very face-saving and gave him some money.

Besides, some of them are really poor at this time.

There is also such a good excuse as Chongzhen.

Then this time, we will definitely be able to deal with the past.

Li Zicheng will not do things too well.

This matter, hello, I'm good, everyone, as long as we can get along with each other.

Li Zicheng is now different from before.

At this time, Li Zicheng is no longer a rogue.

Instead, he replaced Zhu Ming and became the real Son of Heaven.

He's going to sit in the world!

Since you want to be the world, then you must be kind to your own people!

These people are very useful!

Without his own people, it is impossible for Li Zicheng to sit firmly in the world in the future!

So this time, it will only end here, and there will be no follow-up.

It's just that they grossly overestimate their status.

also underestimated Li Zicheng's determination to make money.

didn't recognize Li Zicheng's situation at this time.

Although Li Zicheng is very powerful, he has the potential to sweep the world.

But at heart, he's still a rogue.

There are so many things that don't have a proper structure.

Especially the slogans he shouted, "Don't be bad, don't pay for food."

In the beginning, it really stirred people's hearts.

It provided special convenience for him to be able to defeat and fight again and again, and finally break Beiping City.

Let him have a great reputation in many places.

Let the many people spontaneously welcome him.

However, his slogan is also particularly disadvantageous.

When he was weak, he was not obvious, and when his status became higher and higher, the world he conquered became bigger and bigger, especially after he conquered Beiping City, as he is now.

This slogan turned into a huge burden.

If he doesn't pay for food, where does his money come from?

Many soldiers and horses under his command have to eat!

Therefore, the knife in the hand can only be chopped down on some people!

Only then will he have the money to do things!

A regime must not only have soldiers, but also people, and also money!

Without money, a lot of things can't work.

And the money he needs is in this Beiping City!

To be precise, on these many officials!

And some of the rest!

Between these people, and among the many people under his command who follow him to fight the world, who should be chosen.

For Li Zicheng, it can be said that there is no need to think about it.

Although these people in front of him are more important, they are really far behind those who support him to fight the world.

Those talents are his real backbone, his henchmen!

These surrenderers are just some betrayers!

According to the original history, Li Zicheng was also cried poor by these people.

However, Li Zicheng discussed with his subordinates before letting Liu Zongmin and others start to torture them.

Thus a great fortune was made.

But this time it's different.

Li Ziwei was robbed in front of him by Chongzhen, and he took Beiping City to Huo Huo, squandered a lot of money and food that belonged to him, and took it away, which made him unhappy.

Now that I see these people again, it is even more unpleasant to have such an attitude.

In addition, there is Chongzhen Zhuyu in front of him, where does he need to think more at this time?

You can directly take out the methods used by Chongzhen and use them.

There's no need to even consult with your subordinates!

Immediately, he looked at these people and said, "I will ask you again, can you all only take such a small amount of money?" ”

After listening to Li Zicheng's words, these people nodded one after another and said that this was all their belongings.

No more, you won't survive.

There really isn't any.

After saying that, many people began to cry again.

When Li Zicheng heard this, his face sank and said, "Arrest them all!" Imprisoned! Torture!

I don't believe it, all of you are so poor! Chongzhen can really clean them all!

I can take all your belongings with me! ”

As soon as Li Zicheng said this, he was crying poorly, and felt that he was waiting for these officials who had passed the customs and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and they were stunned for an instant.

What's the situation?

What's going on?

How is this ...... Didn't you say that this thing is good, and you can get along with each other until the point?

Why now, Li Zicheng not only didn't give them a reward, but after they gave the money, he still came to play like this?

How could he do that?

Isn't that going to kill people!

These officials of the Ming Dynasty were all sluggish.

Then some people fell to their knees and begged for mercy.

But Li Zicheng at this time, where did he pay attention to them?

Immediately a great multitude of soldiers came up like wolves and tigers, and pressed them to the ground and bound them.

Without saying anything, they were sent to prison.

Many people were crying and begging for mercy in horror.

Some even said that he could get another 2,000 taels of silver out of his house.

But for these, Li Zicheng didn't pay attention to it at all.

It was when I heard these words that I couldn't help but sneer.

I feel more and more that this move is very correct.

Sure enough, these people are all cheap skins one by two, and they don't cry when they don't see the coffin!

How dare you fool him!

I said before that I didn't have any money, but at this time, I just asked people to arrest them, and they didn't use torture yet, so they all started to recruit.

I can give more silver!

How can this be done without torture and torture them?

Niu Jinxing and some of the rest of the people, although they were a little worried after seeing Li Zicheng operating here.

Among them, Niu Jinxing wanted to say something, but in the end he shut up and didn't say much.

He also knew that at this time, Li Zicheng actually had no other way out.

Only here in Beiping City, can we get more money and grain.

Moreover, he is really going to say this, and it is absolutely thankless.

Not only will it make Li Zicheng unhappy.

Even the many strategists under Li Zicheng, as well as some generals, were not happy.

After all, at this time, many people need to be rewarded.

And where do these rewards come from?

Only from the side of Beiping City!

He spoke out to stop it, which is equivalent to ruining the financial path of many people.

It will inevitably be difficult in the future and will not be welcomed!

Even in some dangerous situations, it is not impossible to die from an arrow in the back......

"Your Majesty, the minister has a word! Chongzhen Xiao'er had already raided many officials of the Ming Dynasty before this.

Took away a lot of money.

At this time, only these remaining Ming officials were raided, but they were afraid that the harvest would be limited.

It is better to directly block the whole city and do something to the rich merchants and some literati in Beiping City.

These people are also very rich, and maybe there will be more gains.

The income will definitely exceed that of these officials. ”

The person who spoke was Liu Zongmin.

After listening to Liu Zongmin's words, Li Zicheng thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay!" Good! You're right!

Just do as you say!

You'll be in charge of that, too! ”

Liu Zongmin immediately responded to it.

Then the whole city began to be blocked, and the rich merchants and wealthy people were hunted down.

Raid the homes of those wealthy compounds......

All of a sudden, Beiping City became even more chaotic than when Chongzhen, Zhu Yuanzhang and others raided their homes before.

And in that cell, many Ming officials who were arrested did not end well.

At this time, the people who were arranged by Liu Zongmin were constantly beaten and tortured, and they were tortured.

Ask them where their money is hidden.

Liu Zongmin, as well as Liu Zongmin's subordinates, will not be polite to these people.

After all, their money and food will fall on these people.

At this time, these officials of the Ming Dynasty regretted as much as they wanted.

Many people have repentance.

Originally, I thought that after welcoming King Chuang, they all had the merit of supporting each other, and they would have a very good end.

Those who followed Chongzhen will definitely regret and envy them in the future.

But how could they have imagined that these people would have such a result in the end!

Those officials who left with Chongzhen, after learning their fate, were afraid that they would be extremely contemptuous, and at the same time, they were very happy......

I knew that Li Zicheng would be such a dog, so they wouldn't stay.

He will definitely leave Jingshi with Chongzhen and Emperor Taizu Gao.

Before that, many people scolded Chongzhen there, thinking that Chongzhen was not a good person.

Now, as soon as Li Zicheng's torture is arranged, the thoughts in his heart have quickly changed.

began to miss Chongzhen.

I think Chongzhen is still much better than Li Zicheng, and he is more like an emperor than Li Zicheng.

Many people began to miss Chongzhen very much, but unfortunately there is no regret medicine in the world.

It's useless to regret it at this time.

can only bear the consequences of their choices......

With Li Zicheng's torture, Beiping City also seemed particularly chaotic.

There are more than one or two families affected.

Because of Zhu Yuanzhang, Chongzhen and others, they had already taken away a lot of the wealth here in Beiping City before this.

Therefore, although Li Zicheng's torture salary is a lot, it is also quite different from the amount he wants.

So at such a moment, many ordinary people in Beiping City also suffered.

Li Zicheng's old battalion military discipline is okay.

But I can't stand the various soldiers and horses behind to join.

Under such circumstances, those people in Beiping City began to miss Emperor Chongzhen and the Ming Dynasty.

Those who have rejoiced in welcoming the king before this time will regret it as much as they want at this time!

How is this completely different from what I imagined!

How could King Chuang be like this?

What a disappointment for them!

Under Li Zicheng's operations, the people's hearts here in Beiping City have changed again in a short period of time.

From before, countless people were looking forward to the arrival of King Chuang, but now many people are looking forward to Li Zicheng's dog thing to leave quickly, and their Chongzhen Emperor and their Ming Dynasty can return again......

Most people are like this, only after losing and encountering something worse, will they miss the past......

……

Push forward a few days.

"Regent, rest assured.

By this time, Daming had become an old house that would fall down as soon as the wind blew.

Li Zicheng's side is also heading towards Beiping.

By this time, Zhu Ming had no available troops at all.

The only person who is a little tricky is none other than Wu Sangui.

However, it is impossible for Wu Sangui to be loyal to Zhu Ming.

If Zhu Ming was strong, then Wu Sangui would naturally be Zhu Ming's loyal minister.

But Zhu Ming was already rotten.

I can't even pay the corresponding salary.

At this time, the situation here has deteriorated to such a point.

At this point, he has absolutely no choice but to surrender to you, the Regent!

His brother Wu Sanfeng is on our side, and he is treated well.

Regent, you are willing to give up your blood this time, and directly promise to the throne.

Wu Sangui definitely knows what to do.

Li Zicheng is not a rogue, and Zhu Ming is unreliable.

Wu Sangui's foundation is in Shanhaiguan again.

There is only one way to go to you, Regent......"

A man with a large bald head with only a small handful of hair on the back of his head, braided into a braid, and looks like a rat's tail.

Talking to Dolgon.

This person is none other than Fan Wencheng.

It was the one who defected to the Tartars with his brother, and then made all kinds of suggestions to the Tartars to fight against the Ming Dynasty.

Hearing what he said, a smile crossed Dorgon's face.

A few words of praise for him.

Hearing Dolgon's praise, this Fan Wencheng's face was suddenly full of smiles, and the whole person was overjoyed.

It looks like a dog that has been approved by its owner for a day and has a wagging tail.

Even if it's his wife, if it's okay, she will be called away by some of his masters on Jiannu's side, and they will talk about the wind and snow together.

He was given more than one hat.

But he is still loyal to these masters and tries his best to please them.

I have to say, it's really a good dog......

……

Wu Sangui, who was dressed in military uniform, looked tangled.

"Good birds choose trees to perch on, and loyal ministers choose their masters.

Zhu Ming has no way, and the world knows it.

Mr. Wu needs to plan ahead.

Looking at today's world, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng are just some rogues, and it is difficult to become a big tool.

The real essence is in Jianzhou, in the regent.

These are the people who can take over the world.

As long as Ping Xibo can surrender, he will definitely be able to be reused and directly crowned king!

This is the treatment that Ping Xibo will not have if he stays here in Zhu Ming for a long time......"

At this time, Wu Sangui was on the way to rescue Beiping with his troops.

But he was chased by a messenger sent by Dorgon.

Look at him and speak.

made him hesitate.

It was at this time that the person sent by Wu Xiang with his own letter came......
