    Posted When Hu Maozhen saw that Li Chen and others were no longer where they were, he clenched his fists slightly nervously and saw the guards returning and the guard commander Doniha returning from putting out the fire, "Commanders more, the emperor ordered.  "

    Release Doneha immediately fell to his knees when he heard this.  Hu Maozhen said with a slight trembling: "The emperor has decreed that he will immediately summon Hong Chengchou to the palace to discuss matters. More commanders should hurry up and convey the order!"

    Released When Shunzhi and others were discussing in the main hall, they suddenly found more than 20 people breaking in from outside. They looked like they were guards. Shunzhi was about to ask if the fire in Cining Palace was put out, but he didn't wait to ask!  I saw these people swarming up like wolves and tigers, pushing many ministers to the ground and tying them up. As soon as the guards in the palace came forward, they were shot to the ground. They didn't even make a sound and stopped moving. Some resisted.  The minister also froze on the ground silently.

    Release Li Chen and others were very fast. They came in, shot the guards, tied up the ministers, and blocked the mouths of the Manchu ministers. It took no more than two minutes.  Li Chen looked at the horrified young man in the dragon robe and smiled slightly, "They say the young master is suspicious, but you are an extraordinary emperor."

    Release When Hu Maozhen came in and saw this clean scene, he was surprised at the strength of Li Chen and others, "General, please clean up quickly. I have already sent someone to recall Hong Chengchou."

    Release As soon as Hu Maozhen's words came out, the eyes of all the Manchu and Han courtiers, including Shunzhi, fell on Hu Maozhen. Hu Maozhen was a little embarrassed when he saw it, and immediately ordered people to take these people to the back hall and clean up the dead bodies on the ground.

    Hong Chengchou had not slept for three days and nights. The Ming army's almost continuous artillery fire on the city made him very worried, but he knew that the artillery would not be effective in a short period of time, and the gunpowder in the hands of the Ming army was not useless.  It's over, and the reinforcements from Hebei will be back almost tomorrow. It will be easy to annihilate the Ming army in the outer city. The most important thing is how to fight back. Looking at the current situation, the Ming army has made gains in various battlefields. The general trend is even worse for the Manchu and Qing Dynasties.  It's a disadvantage, but it's not without the power to recover, so resolving the current difficulties is the key.

    Published When Hong Chengchou saw Doniha, he knew that the emperor had something to do with him. It was difficult for the emperor these days. After all, he was just a child. He had to bear such a heavy burden and was no longer worthy of a child.

    Posting nonsense led the Beijing Tiandihui people and the special operations team to a place a few hundred meters away from the city gate. Listening to the sound of artillery bombardment, he looked at the Qing troops guarding the city gate and the city, and rushed directly to the city gate.  The old method definitely won't work. Even if we can get to the bottom of the city wall, we haven't even opened the city gate yet!  You have to go see the King of Hell.

    Li Xin was the leader of this half of the special operations team. He looked at the surrounding situation and frowned. "We can only rush to the city gate and think of a way. The city gate is made of wood and should be able to be lit." Li Xin  He said and asked people to put all the fire-setting tools he carried with him into his hands, "You go and get some wood. Each of you should hold a piece. If possible, set a fire somewhere else to attract the attention of the Tatars."

    Posted Look at the nonsense, it can only be like this, no matter whether it succeeds or not, just do it!  Apart from that, he couldn't think of any other solution.  In this way, more than fifty people not only got a wooden plank each, but also set fires in more than ten places, and then rushed to the bottom of the city wall.

    Published When Hu Yan and others were all dressed in Qing army uniforms, the Qing army defending the city thought they were their own people at first!  But seeing them placing wood under the city gate aroused the suspicion of the Qing army. Hu Yan led the people to fight with the Qing army. He was surprised when he saw the people around him. He didn't know if the people around him knew magic and how to defeat them.  If there is only one Qing soldier, there will be no movement from the Qing soldiers!

    Li Xin looked at the wood piled under the city gate. He poured the small bottles containing fuel onto the wood. The oil in the small bottles was a vegetable oil unique to southern Xinjiang. Because it was particularly flammable, it was called fuel.  After more than twenty bottles of fuel were poured, Li Xin started the fire, and the flames suddenly shot into the sky.  After Li Xin set the fire, he turned around and went into battle.

    Released When Li Chengdong saw a sudden burst of fire inside the city gate, he knew that the internal intelligence Qi Yu mentioned had begun to take action. He immediately ordered an all-out attack on the city, focusing on the city gate.

    Publishing nonsense, Li Xin and others guarded the burning fire. Facing the unknown number of Qing troops, they showed no fear. Their goal was to ensure that the fire could loosen the city gate and make it easier for the Ming troops outside.  Blow open the city gate.  And because Hong Chengchou suddenly entered the palace, the command of the Qing army suddenly became dull, so Hu Yan and others and Li Chengdong outside the city took advantage. When Hu Yan heard the rumbling sound behind him, he couldn't help but look back and found that  The city gate was blasted open, but then he found that an arrow had hit his heart and he fell down silently.

    Released by Hong Chengchou all the wayWhen he came to Qianqing Palace, when he came in, he saw that there was only one minister, Hu Maozhen, and several guards in the hall. He couldn't help but said in shock: "Master Hu, where is the emperor?"

    Posted by Hu Maozhen sighed, "Hong Chengchou, a bitch, if she spends the first half of her life wandering in the dust and the second half of her life is a good person, then she will not be despised by others, people will only say good things about her; similarly, if a woman stays guarded for half her life  If your chastity suddenly remarries when you are old, then she is worse than a prostitute. You were admired by millions of people in the first half of your life, but it is a pity that you will not be able to protect it later in life!"

    Posted Hong Chengchou was least willing to hear this. He glared, "What do you mean by these, where is the emperor? My merits and demerits will be judged by future generations."

    Hu Maozhen nodded and said, "Tie him up too. I'm going to deliver the order now and surrender." As soon as Hu Maozhen finished speaking, Li Chen and others dressed as bodyguards came over and pushed Hong Chengchou down. After Hong Chengchou was tied up,  After entering the palace, he saw that Shunzhi and other ministers were also like him, unable to move. Hong Chengchou's expression completely changed. He immediately understood that Hu Maozhen was going to rebel, but he did not expect that Hu Maozhen was not a person of the same mind as them.

    Released Li Chengdong broke through the Zhengyang Gate and entered, causing chaos among the Qing troops defending the city. They were fighting!  I heard that Shunzhi had issued a decree to give up resistance and surrender. Although these Qing troops did not believe it, their confidence had collapsed. They were still opponents of the Ming army. After a short period of resistance, they were killed and dispersed. Li Chengdong immediately led his troops into the imperial city.  , controlling the heart of Beijing.

    Published It was already dawn at this time. Hu Maozhen stood on a high place and looked at the relatively peaceful city of Beijing. He let out a sigh of relief and said, "General Li, victory is only temporary. The key is whether we can wait for the emperor's reinforcements!"

    Release Li Chengdong nodded in agreement, "I have already deployed the troops to defend the city. You should come out immediately to calm the people! As for the Manchu princes and ministers imprisoned in the Forbidden City, it is better to wait until the emperor arrives before dealing with them."

    Released When Zhuo Butai arrived outside the city of Beijing, he was greeted by the artillery fire of the Ming army. When he saw many Manchu and Qing ministers who were detained at the top of the city, he knew that the situation was over, but as a minister, he still besieged  After more than a month in Beijing, a military report was finally received that Ying'erdai had been killed in battle, the Qing army was defeated, and the Ming army had marched to Zhuozhou. Zhuo Butai had no choice but to leave Beijing in tears and find his own way out.

    Published: On September 17th, the eighth year of Hongguang, the sky was clear.  When I finally arrived in Beijing after annihilating Ying'erdai's men, and stopped outside Beijing on horseback, I looked at this ancient city with endless emotion in my heart. Unfortunately, I was not allowed to express my feelings more. Li Chengdong and others knelt down with thorn sticks on their backs.  The show began outside the city gate.

    Posted "Get up! All merits and demerits will be evaluated after settling in. Let's go to the city first." I motioned to Yin Shixun to go get Li Chengdong and others up. Originally, I should have gone in person, but when I thought that Li Chengdong ruined my strategy  Plan, I'm still angry.

    Posting to fight for the world, since ancient times, winners and losers have always been kings and losers. I looked at the Manchu princes and ministers tied up, and looked at the gray-faced little Shunzhi emperor. I couldn't help but sigh, "The Manchu princes, Beilebeizi, etc. will all be beheaded."  "In the face of these people, we must not be soft-hearted and must eradicate the root causes.

    After the release, I came to an acquaintance. Looking at Hou Fangyu, I couldn't help but shake my head, "I treat you well! Not only did I give you the woman I like, but I also made you a feudal official, but you failed me like this  ." I said and took out the thing from Hou Fangyu's mouth, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"

    Published Hou Fangyu also had mixed feelings in his heart, and it was useless to say anything at this time, "I know that I am sorry for the emperor, and I just want to die quickly." After saying this, Hou Fangyu drooped his head and stopped talking.

    "Xiangjun was brought into the palace by me. When I left, I heard that she was pregnant." I whispered in Hou Fangyu's ear. Seeing his surprised look, I felt great.

    I walked up to Hong Chengchou. I know more about this person from Bai Jing. Whether it is his great achievements in the first half of his life or his glory in the second half of his life, he has a place in history. In the history of the Qing Dynasty, he can be compared with Hong Chengchou.  The only one who is slightly better is probably Zeng Guofan.

    Posted: "Come here, execute all these traitors in Ling Chi, and destroy the three tribes" These traitors are more annoying than those Manchu princes, and if they are not punished harshly, they are not enough to relieve hatred.

    When I posted my poster, I once visited the Palace Museum in Beijing. Therefore, after taking care of my immediate tasks, I immediately wanted to see how the Forbidden City is different from what I remembered. After visiting a few places, I found that the Forbidden City now is really  It is not as majestic and magnificent as it was in later generations, maybe because it was not repaired by the Manchus for more than a hundred years!  But it makes me happy to see places that I don¡¯t have the right to visit in later generations. The royal place is just different!  In the imperial palace in Nanjing and hereThere's really no comparison.

    When Yin Shixun saw that Emperor Hongguang was no longer moving around, he said, "Your Majesty, you have been tired all the way, so you should take a rest! All important matters can be dealt with tomorrow. As for the matter of appeasing the people, Wei Chen will work with Hu Maozhen  With him here, I believe everything will go smoothly."

    Posted "Well! I am indeed a little tired. Ai Qing and Hu Ai Qing should pay more attention. In addition, a decree is sent to Li Dingguo who went to pursue Zhuo Butai and clear out the remaining Qing forces, asking him to make sure to clear them all." Now that he has been forced to change.  If we have a strategic plan, we must treat the remaining Qing forces as ruthlessly and thoroughly as the autumn wind sweeps away fallen leaves.

    When I woke up, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning the next day. It seemed that the battle during this period of time had put my body beyond a lot of load. After exercising for a while, I asked Tian Rong to call Yin Shixun, "  My dear, is the city still peaceful?"

    Posted by Yin Shixun, he didn't sleep all night last night. He thought to himself that fortunately the emperor lived in the Forbidden City and didn't hear the commotion outside. "Back to the emperor, everything is fine. Wei Chen has made a series of arrangements with Mr. Hu."  Comfort measures, and at the same time, those who deserved to die have been dealt with, and the people's morale has been greatly stabilized."

    When I was about to say something to Yin Shixun, Tian Rong handed over a memorial, which was a memorial from Wang Duo. It meant asking me if I had any thoughts about moving the capital. I hesitated and handed the memorial to Yin Shixun, "  Aiqing, take a look and tell me what you think."

    Published Yin Shixun read Wang Duo¡¯s memorial and said to himself that he was just about to tell the emperor about it!  "Your Majesty, Beijing is the capital of the orthodox country. What I want to say is that the capital should be moved. Besides, the tombs of the previous emperors are all near Beijing, including the Imperial Ancestral Temple, etc. These are things that Nanjing does not have!" Yin Shixun continued.  There are many reasons why the capital should be moved.

    Release I put the memorial aside and said, "I am still not sure of my decision. I will leave this matter to Wang Duo and the six ministries to discuss and draft an opinion for me."

    Yin Shixun also felt that it would not be a good idea to rashly decide to move the government from Nanjing to Beijing. He quickly thought of another important matter, "Your Majesty, I did some statistics last night and found that there are palace maids and Tatar concubines in the Forbidden City."  There are 3,700 people and more than 2,100 eunuchs. It is up to the emperor to decide how to deal with these people."

    Posted "Well! This is more difficult to deal with, and I don't dare to let them serve me. Let's do this! All the palace ladies are released from the palace, and they can be allowed to return to their places of origin. Each person under the age of thirty will be given fifty silver dollars as a dowry, and they can choose  If you are over thirty and have no place of origin or relatives, you can stay in the imperial city as a handyman!" I paused, "As for the eunuchs, they cannot survive in the society, so they all work as hard labor."

    Yin Shixun responded, "Those Manchu concubines, I think it's better to execute them all! Those people are basically Manchus, and they may be in trouble if they stay." Yin Shixun knew that Emperor Hongguang was somewhat lustful, especially  It's for other people's wives. This is good. The concubines in the Forbidden City are all other people's wives. He doesn't want the emperor to make the old habit of keeping all these Manchu concubines.

    I thought it was right when I announced, "I will follow Aiqing's idea and give them all death, but bring me Da Yu'er, I want to see her." I saw Yin Shixun and was stunned, "She is Shunzhi's mother.  "

    Posted by I remember that in many hearings from later generations, Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang was praised as an outstanding female politician in the early Qing Dynasty. She assisted her son Shunzhi and enthroned her grandson Kangxi. No matter how true it is, it can be seen that Xiaozhuang has a good vision, at least  She chose the right grandson, Kangxi, and pioneered the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong. It was the only bright spot in the entire history of the Qing Dynasty.

    Posted that Da Yuer once wanted to commit suicide and die for the country to protect her reputation. Unfortunately, she was deprived of the right to commit suicide once she did not die, and became the second red lady. Of course, the current red lady has escaped the fate of being imprisoned because of Tian Rong's care.  , but if it weren¡¯t for pregnancy, I might not be able to escape the fate of being ravaged.

    Posted I looked at Da Yuer who was brought in. I saw that she was already thirty-five or sixty years old. She could make the two brothers Huang Taiji and Dorgon fall in love. She naturally had a good appearance. Although she was imprisoned at this time and her face was not good-looking, she still  She looks like a young woman and can be called a beauty.

    Published: Da Yuer and I looked at each other for more than a minute. I was hesitant to kill or not to kill. At this time, I can guarantee you that I have absolutely no intention of falling in love with her, but I am particularly conflicted because in the future.  , I am not very unfamiliar with this woman who is famous in history, and I even admire her a little. Whether it is Ning Jing¡¯s version, Siqin Gaowa¡¯s version, or Mushroom¡¯s Chen Derong version, the impression on people is very profound, good or bad.  , Now that I see the real person again, can the knife be used?

    Published Tian Rong has the same position as his godfather Yin Shixun at this time. Xiaozhuang must not be allowed to stay. Although Xiaozhuang and Hong Niangzi are both rebellious people, there is an essential difference. "Your Majesty, noNo matter what angle you come from, please ask the emperor to order this girl to die.  "As he said that, he gave Yin Shixun a wink.

    Published Yin Shixun knew Emperor Hongguang better than his godson, and he thought that if the emperor was not allowed to take advantage, the emperor would definitely feel itchy, and he would have to take over this job!  "Let's keep him in custody first!" Yin Shixun said, thinking about how to arrange this matter.

    Published Under the arrangement of Yin Shixun, Emperor Hongguang did taste the sweetness, and more than once, but a month after "favoring" Da Yu'er, Da Yu'er finally found an opportunity to commit suicide. Of course, this opportunity was Yin Shixun and Tian Rongliu  It was done, but Emperor Hongguang, one of the parties involved, did not know.

    I am worried about three things in Beijing. The first is the controversy surrounding the relocation of the capital. Nanjing has been involved in a fierce battle between people who have been officials in Beijing and those who want to inherit the orthodoxy, led by Wang Duo.  They all advocated relocating the capital, but those from the Jiangnan power group did not agree to move the capital. Jiangnan was indispensable for Emperor Hongguang's successful accession to the throne. They all hoped to maintain Nanjing's status as the capital. The entangled interests were inextricably linked. Of course,  Among them, the concubine Zhuang Mengdie and officials with Jiangnan background played a role in fueling the flames.

    The second post is a trivial matter at the moment, but it is not a small matter. The red lady is about to give birth, which is no less trouble than the trouble of moving the capital. Moreover, I found that the red lady¡¯s attitude towards me has fundamentally changed. Although there is still a relationship between the two of them,  Indifferent, but she smiled at me vaguely, which bothered me even more.

    The third release is from Gui Wang Zhu Youlang. Things outside the customs have been settled. Zhu Youlang suggested that I formally incorporate North Korea into the territory. Zhu Youlang feels that the conditions are very mature. North Korea is now eager to return to the Ming Dynasty. As long as  If I apply more pressure, I can definitely do it.

    Posted: When I think of King Lee? of Joseon, I can¡¯t help but think of him marrying another princess to Zhu Youlang, and at the same time canonizing Seo Eun-mi as the princess, and taking Seo Eun-mi as his god-sister on behalf of his dead father. Judging from the information revealed there  , he seemed not to want North Korea to be incorporated into the Ming Dynasty.
