    After convincing the people, Zhu Youcheng led the troops to continue marching towards Daming Gate.  Arriving at the Daming Gate, Zhu Youcheng and King Xin got off their horses, knelt on the ground, and saluted Emperor Tianqi.  The more than 10,000 imperial guards behind them also knelt on the ground and shouted, "Long live the mountain."  More than 10,000 people shouted in unison, and the sound was like an overwhelming force, shaking the world.  Although there is a saying in the ceremony that the mountain shouts "Long Live the Mountain", it is only a few hundred or thousands of people shouting in unison, so there is no such a loud voice.  ¡°Besides, when the Donglin Party controlled the government, all the officials only regarded the emperor as a puppet on strings, and their voices were always weak when shouting long live.  How is it like Jin Yiwei, who is brainwashed by Zhu Youcheng every day, and regards the emperor as his idol, and he is particularly energetic when he shouts.  Emperor Tianqi stood on the tower of Daming Gate. When he heard the sincere shout of long live, he couldn't help but feel a little carried away. He thought to himself: It is better for his two younger brothers to train and teach the soldiers to be so obedient.  "Some people also falsely accused Zhu Youcheng of placing 30,000 Jinyi guards outside Beijing with the intention of treason, which is simply ridiculous.  The nine thousand households sent by Emperor Tianqi were not just for nothing. They had already made a detailed report to the emperor on the situation in Fusi, Xizhen.  In Fusi, West Town, Jin Yiwei often conducts loyalty and patriotic education; when military pay is issued, no matter where the military pay comes from, Zhu Youcheng and King Xin both say that it is from Emperor Tianqi, causing every soldier to thank Emperor Tianqi after receiving the military pay  ¡­ If Zhu Youcheng really wanted to commit rebellion, it might be a bit exaggerated for the soldiers to rebel, but at least no one would follow him in rebellion.  Zhu Youcheng said it well, Jin Yiwei and even the entire Ming Dynasty's army are the armies of Emperor Tianqi. He and all the generals are assistants who help the emperor train and command the army, not the master of the army.  Such a brother.  You said he would rebel, what a joke!  Emperor Tianqi nodded with a smile and said: "I heard that Zhu Aiqing and King Xin did a great job in the southwest. They eliminated An Bangyan in Guizhou and the She Chongming rebels hiding in Sichuan in one fell swoop. They also designed a plan to uncover Ami who was preparing to take action.  The chieftain of the state has a great reputation." All the officials and people took a breath, and the southwest was calmed down?  It's a bit too fast.  A few days ago, it was said that Guiyang City was besieged by rebels again. There were quite a lot of them. Why are they all gone now?  Could it be that She Chongming and An Bangyan were impatient and disbanded their troops to be captured by the Jinyi Guards?  "However, it has been more than half a year since you two left Beijing. I miss you very much. I urgently order you to enter Beijing. "Because of the rush of the trip, it is inconvenient for you to escort the prisoners.  It's a pity that you won the battle, but you can't enjoy the glory of presenting prisoners at the Meridian Gate. I feel very guilty.  " Emperor Tianqi stood on the city gate tower. No matter how loud the sound was, Zhu Youcheng and others could not hear it, so one hundred and eight Han generals relayed his words to the people below the city gate tower. Zhu Youcheng, King Xin and Ten Thousand People  The rest of the Jinyi guards replied in unison: "I don't dare.  " Emperor Tianqi nodded with satisfaction. Don't be arrogant when you win. If you lose - bah, you won't lose - such soldiers are the strongest soldiers in the world trained by Zhu Youcheng. They will surely lead the Ming Dynasty from one victory to another.  Emperor Tianqi said: "Zhu Aiqing, King Xin, and all the royal guards.  Qing and others are equal.  ¡± With a ¡°wow¡± sound, everyone at the bottom of the city stood up. ¡°You heard it right, there was only one sound. The Jin Yiwei had not been trained in advance, but their movements at this moment were surprisingly consistent. The people at the scene, both officials and civilians, secretly raised their thumbs.  : The army is indeed capable of winning consecutive battles despite the order. When Emperor Tianqi saw this, he said: "I once heard Zhu Aiqing say that.  ¡®The army and the people are united as one and let¡¯s see who in the world can defeat us.  ¡¯ I¡¯ve always been a bit unconvinced by this.  It is said that thousands of people have thousands of thoughts, but this is still the case for thousands of people.  Not to mention ten thousand people?  Looking at the Jin Yiwei today, they are indeed united as one. With this army, the Ming Dynasty will be victorious!  " "Wan Sheng!  Won victory!  " Up and down the city tower, both officers and soldiers and civilians shouted together, the sound was like a roaring mountain and a tsunami. After the sound subsided slightly, Emperor Tianqi said: "Zhu Aiqing, tell me how you suppressed the rebellion in the southwest?  "Zhu Youcheng bowed to Emperor Tianqi and said: "The minister went to the southwest this time, thanks to the emperor's wise leadership, King Xin's heroic fighting, and the active cooperation of Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of the four provinces, we achieved victory.  The humble minister just followed the trend, fought a few victorious battles, and achieved some minor achievements. He was really ashamed.  " Emperor Tianqi smiled slightly and thought to himself: "Brother Cheng is becoming more and more eloquent now. He praises me so highly that the people are more convinced of me, and he also avoids the jealousy of officials and saves him a lot of trouble.  ¡±  Then, Zhu Youcheng recounted the details of the southwest battle in detail.  When it came to the siege of the city by 200,000 rebels, everyone's palms broke into a cold sweat.  When it was said that fifty thousand rebel soldiers were in a dilemma between the inner and outer city walls, and when they were finally reduced to ashes in the raging fire, everyone secretly said: "That's right!"  When the army collapsed, everyone was as happy as drinking a glass of ice water on a June day.  When it was mentioned that Jiannu sent people to support the southwest rebellion, everyone was furious when they heard it, and secretly cursed the damn slave Hachi - no, he is already dead, so let him suffer more in hell.  When it was said that the Jin Yiwei used the method of making noise to force the rebels entrenched in the Chicken Cave into chaos and had no intention of fighting, everyone was stunned. They could not imagine such an unethical tactic.  When talking about setting up cannons on the top of Jinyiwei Mountain and bombarding She Chongming¡¯s hometown, everyone held their heads high and held their chests high. This was the victory of Ming Dynasty¡¯s technology and the glory of Ming Dynasty.  When they talked about the fact that Zhu Youcheng had designed to defraud his reputation and conspired to rebel, everyone burst into laughter. They discovered that Mr. Zhu also had a narrow-minded side.  Of course, when Zhu Youcheng told the story, he used the Spring and Autumn style of writing. For example, when he was hit by an arrow, he concealed it.  Otherwise, if Emperor Tianqi finds out, he will have to criticize himself.  During this period, Zhu Youcheng was less able to praise Emperor Tianqi, saying that his ideas were either Emperor Tianqi's clever tricks or inspired by the emperor. In short, he made Emperor Tianqi extremely great, extremely bright, and extremely correct.  This is not because Zhu Youcheng is used to playing tricks, but the most serious moment for Xiaobinghe in the late Ming Dynasty is about to come. If the bright image of the emperor is not established, the people will have no backbone, and the troubled times in the late Ming Dynasty will be revealed to the world.  A huge empire cannot be destroyed by external forces. Internal turmoil can turn the empire into running water like a snow sculpture in the sun.  By then, maybe the slaves will take advantage of the situation and seize control of the Central Plains, just like in history, and drag China into the abyss of decadence and ignorance.  Emperor Tianqi didn¡¯t understand Zhu Youcheng¡¯s thoughts, and thought to himself: Why did Zhu Youcheng become so naughty?  What is his intention in putting the credit on himself? Is he afraid that I will do something like "the birds are gone and the good bows are hidden; the cunning rabbits are dead and the hunting dogs are cooked"?  Man said that he and his ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang have different personalities. Even if they have the same personality, Zhu Youcheng doesn't have to be afraid, because Zhu Yuanzhang has a different surname and cooks from a different family.  Zhu Yuanzhang was surprisingly kind to his sons. In addition to giving each son a large fief, he would give them soldiers if they wanted, grain if they wanted, and money if they wanted money. He was just a doting father.  Emperor Tianqi looked at the adoring eyes of the crowd and couldn't help but feel a little ecstatic: "Brother Cheng, it's true, I won't do it again. However, brother Cheng has a purpose in everything he does, and this matter may not be as simple as he thought. Just wait for him to come in  Let's ask after we get to the palace. Anyway, what can't be said between brothers? " Emperor Tianqi remembered that Zhu Youcheng brought him a tiger skin when he went to Liaodong last time. He didn't know what he would bring back from Guizhou this time.  Thinking of Zhu Youcheng's gift, Emperor Tianqi couldn't help but look forward to the meeting after the ceremony.  After a long time, Zhu Youcheng ended his speech.  ¡°It¡¯s not that he meant to be verbose, but many things happened along the way, and these things were still connected one after another. No matter which paragraph was missing, the story would not be clear.  After a long time, warm applause broke out from all over the Daming Gate.  Zhu Youcheng and King Xin once again led the soldiers to shout for long live.  After the ceremony, Zhu Youcheng asked Chen Guoqi to lead the soldiers back to Huangzhuang in the west of Beijing.  Firstly, many of them already have families, so they should go back to reunite with their relatives as soon as possible; secondly, although the city of Beijing is large, it cannot accommodate more than 10,000 people - Emperor Tianqi has a big heart.  Let him lead troops into the city, which is a way of giving him face.  If he stayed there stupidly and caused something to happen, he would be in trouble.  The soldiers left, but Zhu Youcheng and King Xin did not leave.  They brought a large carriage straight to the palace. It seemed that Zhu Youcheng, the scourge, had come to give gifts to the emperor again, hoping to achieve some ulterior purpose.  "It's a pity that their gift this time is a bit disgusting. Will Emperor Tianqi like it?"  (To be continued)
