In other words, the wheel of history, like the passage of time, cannot be stopped or reversed by a certain traverser. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

With Guo Xiang's intervention, Qian Qingjian's efforts finally turned into flowing water.

Although Huang Taiji was shattered into flesh and blood by Qian Qingjian's super qi sword, after Dolgon, Da Yu'er and others returned to Shengjing, they immediately supported Huang Taiji's son Aixin Jueluo Fulin, and Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing State successfully ascended the throne. What's more, because Dolgon and others witnessed Qian Qingjian's death, coupled with Guo Xiang's "Heavenly Dao" theory, aroused the resurgence of the greed of the Manchu people, and after a year of rest, they fought again.

Different from another life, there is one less traitor in this world, who is "angry and angry", in the battle of the Qing soldiers and the Chuang army successively attacking the capital, Wu Sangui, the general soldier of Shanhaiguan, although he held the Shanhaiguan, was broken through by the Manchu Qing from Xifengkou, resulting in the siege of the capital. Later, when Dolgon and others fled back to Shengjing in embarrassment, Wu Sangui saw that Beijing was unoccupied, so he returned to the capital and supported Ah Jiu's elder brother, Zhu Cihong, the prince of Xianshu, to inherit the Ming Dynasty, which was called the Ming Emperor.

In another life, the Ming Emperor was nowhere to be found when Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, but in this life, due to Qian Qingjian's interference, not only did Li Zicheng fail to ascend the throne and become emperor, but even Zhu Cihong was able to preserve and inherit the treasure.

Although Li Zicheng is not dead, he is no longer in the climate, and after returning to Shaanxi, he has collapsed, and he has almost no strength to win the world.

In the capital, Liu Zongmin's arson of evil was not only the complete loss of popular support, but also the fact that for this group, which was not close enough to be united, what was even more fatal was that its military spirit was sloppy to the extreme, and everyone wanted to grab money and things to sleep with women, even if Li Zicheng repented and issued a strict order, it could not be contained.

It's a big deal to be a deserter, and take the money to buy a woman to sleep with, which is better than following the king to die.

Li Zicheng decadent, Emperor Ming mourning also failed to continue the Ming regime for a long time, in the troubled times, his two imperial uncles did not recognize his throne, Zhu Yousong, Zhu Youlang in the south of the Yangtze River respectively called the emperor, one and Zhang Xianzhong, who established himself as the emperor of Daxi in Chengdu, confronted hostility, and the other was taken by Zheng Zhilong as a puppet, and started a war with the foreigners in Macao and Taiwan, both of which stood by and watched the threat from the north faced by Zhu Cihong.

So, when Dolgon made a comeback, Wu Sangui fought hard alone, and was finally outnumbered, and when the city was broken, he fought to the last man, and became the last hero in the history of the Ming Dynasty, which is really singable and crying.

It can be seen that in another life, if it weren't for Li Zicheng's lust and robbing Chen Yuanyuan, Wu Sangui would be a good person through and through, and in this life, although he failed to obtain the king of Pingxi of the Qing court and then named his wife and son, he left a good name through the ages, which is admirable.

After the martyrdom of Wu Sangui, in the north of the Yangtze River, the Manchu Qing Dynasty gradually became a wildfire in the wilderness, Li Zicheng's armed forces followed closely to scatter birds and beasts, and the Qing soldiers occupied the north of China without much effort, and then crossed the Yangtze River, destroying the regime of Zhu Youlang and Zhu Yousong.

There is still one thing here that is different from history, that is, Zheng Zhilong listened to Qian Qingjian's advice, and was always active in the vast sea, and did not go to the land to attack the city and pull out the fortress by land, so he was not attacked by the Qing army, and he did not surrender to the Manchu Qing.

All in all, between the vicissitudes of life, the small is different, the general trend is difficult to change, after several years of conquest, the Southern Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty are finally defeated by the Manchu Dynasty's brave and stubborn, Aixinjue Luo finally unified the north and south of the river, and stole the land of China.

Time flies, 20 years have passed, and the Qing Dynasty, which has entered the Central Plains, has changed an emperor and changed the Yuan Kangxi, which was the first year of Kangxi.

Let's say that on the sixth day of Kangxi, a sensational incident happened in a tavern in the west of Beijing.

What is sensational? This is not a big thing, but it is not a small thing, and a man with no pigtails appeared in this tavern.

It is said that as early as before the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, when they were still hegemonic outside the Guanwai, they implemented the "head shaving order" among the Han people, and the conquered Han people were all forced to change their hairstyles and clothes, and the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who surrendered must also shave their hair and change their clothes, as a sign of submission.

On June 15 of the second year of Shunzhi, Aixin Jueluo Fulin issued the "head shaving order" for the second time: "Inside and outside the capital, it is limited to 10 days; all provinces are limited to 10 days from the date of arrival of the edict, and the officials, soldiers and civilians are all shaved their hair, and those who hesitate will be beheaded according to the theory of rebels!"

The Qing court regarded shaving as one of the signs of submission, with the slogan: "Keep your head without hair, keep your hair without your head." ”

The ancient Han people attached great importance to hairstyles and clothing. "The Book of Filial Piety" has a saying: "The body is skinned, the parents who receive it, dare not destroy it, and the beginning of filial piety is also", after the Han people become adults, in addition to the necessary trimming, they cannot shave their hair at will, and both men and women twist their hair into a bun on the top of their heads.

Of course, the people of the Ming Dynasty who fell did not want to shave their hair, how could they not shave their hair and have to die, in the case of choosing between life and dignity, the vast majority of people had to give up their dignity and choose life.

Therefore, at this time in the early years of Kangxi, except for the two empty doors of the monk road, there were no people with hair in the whole country, and they were all shaved into "money rat pigtails".

It must be said that this money rattail pigtail is completely different from the Qing court TV dramas filmed in China in later generations, it is not from the middle of the head to divide yin and yang, and the braid is as thick as a twist. The real money rattail is a ring of hair left at the back of the head at the top of the skull, the size of money, and the braid left is as thin as a rat's tail, and it is said that the aggressive Jurchens developed such a habit in order to prevent others from pulling their hair.

But whether it is the braids in the TV series of later generations or the braids of the real Qing people, they are all ugly, there is no doubt about it.

In the early years of the Kangxi Dynasty, in areas under the jurisdiction of the Qing court, there were no Han people without braids, so the appearance of such a figure in Beijing at the feet of the Son of Heaven was enough to sensationalize.

Is this man going to die?

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are many officials, even if the officials did not find out about this, some people who saw it went to the yamen to report it one after another - we have all abandoned the precious tradition left by our ancestors to shave our hair and keep braids, why don't you shave your hair? You must pay the price!

Therefore, this man does not want to die, but he cannot live even if he wants to die.

There weren't many drinkers in the small hotel, only three of the eight tables were occupied, and five or six locals were drinking at the other two tables, except for the young man with no braids.

The two tables of drinkers were drinking and chatting, but the voice of the conversation could not be lower, and the topic of conversation was naturally the young man who was drinking alone, wait, to see how this person who did not know whether he was alive or dead was arrested by the government and beheaded.

One of the most common phrases among drinkers is: "It's a pity that this talent is here!"
