Standing on the huge square in front of the Forbidden City's Imperial Palace, that is, the Taihe Hall of later generations, looking up at the magnificent Imperial Palace in front of him, Xiao Tianjian suddenly found that the Imperial Palace in front of him was not quite the same as the Taihe Hall he had visited in later generations.

After thinking about it carefully, Xiao Tianjian suddenly realized that in fact, the Imperial Palace he saw now was not the Taihe Hall left over from the Manchu Dynasty that he had seen in later generations.

He suddenly remembered that after Li Zicheng entered Beijing in history, he was not able to keep the foundation he had laid single-handedly, just entered Beijing for dozens of days, and was defeated by Jiannu, and hurriedly ascended the throne in the Forbidden City, and fled from Beijing the next day. During the Shunzhi period, he spent a lot of money to renovate the Forbidden City, and built the later Taihe Hall and many palaces, so the Forbidden City he saw at this time was still very different from the Forbidden City seen in later generations.

Behind him, is the later known as the Taihe Gate of the Huangji Gate, the Ming Dynasty emperors after Zhu Di, on the Huangji Gate to listen to the government, and in this Huangji Palace to accept the congratulations of thousands of people.

But in a few days, it was already empty, and the owner of this place, Zhu Youzhen, had already gone before his arrival, and he didn't know where to go, although Xiao Tianjian knew that even without his appearance, Chongzhen could only live in this glorious palace city for less than three more years, but because of his appearance, Chongzhen's Ming Dynasty was destroyed by him three years earlier than in history.

Now when he set foot here, it announced the beginning of a new history, he single-handedly buried the Ming Dynasty that had long been decayed, opened a new chapter in history, and unlike history, now before he came here, he no longer has to worry about the construction of slaves outside the Guan.

After more than two months of the Battle of Shanhaiguan and the Battle of Tongzhou, today's Jiannu can be said to be completely ferocious, in just two or three months, the Jiannu army roaring in Liaodong tasted their worst defeat in history in front of his large Chinese army.

Huang Taiji led the 200,000 Jiannu army to the south, although Abatai and Haoge led the troops into the Guannai, but fortunately he went north in time, before Abatai and Haoge swept Gyeonggi, they blocked them outside the city of Tongzhou, and under the first battle, almost all of the Abatai Division, only this battle, not only killed Abatai as an ordered general, but also almost brought him and Haoge into the Guan's 30,000 or 40,000 Jiannu army, to ashes, but unfortunately until now, they did not catch Haoge, I don't know if Hauge has escaped from the gate or died somewhere.

Then the battle of Shanhaiguan, he led the troops to the rest of the Jiannu army led by Huang Taiji to defeat and lose, forcing it to flee back to Liaodong in disgrace, Jiannu 200,000 troops, more than two months, lost more than half of the men and horses and a large number of armor materials, so that Jiannu in a short period of time, has completely lost the ability to go south into the Kou, at least two or three years, they can not recover their strength, let alone dare to covet the Guannei.

So by this time in history, he had nothing to worry about Jiannu! There will be no more crises like the one after Li Zicheng entered Beijing.

Daming is over! When he stepped into the capital, he was completely swept into the garbage heap of history, and the next thing he had to do was to unify the world as quickly as possible, but Chongzhen's disappearance always made him feel a haze in his heart.

He knows better than anyone that one mountain can't accommodate two tigers, the world has been ruled by their Zhu family for nearly three hundred years, and under the subtle influence, there are quite a lot of people in the world who regard their Zhu family as orthodox, and feel that no matter what their Zhu family people do, they should sit in this world, so Chongzhen is now in the eyes of many people, or a genuine emperor, if he doesn't catch him, once he sneaks out of Beijing City, goes to a random place, and waves his arms, there will be many fools who will follow him against Dazhong.

There are also those three princes, even if Chongzhen is dead, as long as they are used by someone with a heart, they will immediately support a small court, then this small court can gather many people with ulterior motives or foolish loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, and do things of splitting, the identity of these three princes, compared to the Fu King Zhu Youxiang of the Southern Ming Dynasty in history, is much more powerful, so if these four people are not found, for him, the road to domination of the world will be much more difficult, I don't know how many more people died in the war.

Thinking of this, Xiao Tianjian's mood was so great that even the mood of continuing to admire the Forbidden City in front of him suddenly disappeared, and suddenly he said to the iron head who followed him: "Go!" Let's go to the coal mountain! ”

Tietou and Yu Linwei couldn't help but be stunned, now that they finally won the Forbidden City, these two eyes were almost too busy, but Xiao Tianjian seemed to be not happy about occupying this imperial city, and suddenly proposed to go to Coal Mountain, but since Xiao Tianjian proposed to go to Coal Mountain, then they had to follow, anyway, in the future, this Forbidden City is Xiao Tianjian's, they Yu Linwei inevitably want to follow in, and it will be nothing to see later, so Yu Linwei with Iron Head immediately received the order, Immediately brought the war horse, Xiao Tianjian didn't care that this was the Forbidden City, turned over on the horse, and immediately passed through the Forbidden City with a group of Yulin guards, galloping towards the Xuanwu Gate in the north, and the soldiers and generals who were on guard along the way all immediately stood up and saluted, and some people even wondered with bad taste, what did their emperor want to do with such a roar and roar towards the harem?

Coal mountain is outside the Xuanwu Gate of the Forbidden City, also known as Long Live Mountain, there was a hill here in the Yuan Dynasty, it was called Qingshan, later Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing City, when the Forbidden City was built, the river mud and loess dug out of the moat were piled up here, forming the current coal mountain, and planted all kinds of flowers and trees, it became the back garden of the Royal Forbidden City, the emperor and concubines often played here, this was not a place where ordinary people could come, at this time in the capital, although it was still very chaotic, But most of the people ran back to their homes with great interest, closed the courtyard door, and trembled on the crack of the door and looked out.

Although it has long been spread among the people, the Dazhong Army is very benevolent and righteous, and never kills innocents indiscriminately, but this is hearsay after all, and now there is a shortage of soldiers in the capital, and no one dares to guarantee that there is any good fruit to eat when walking on the street, so they have all hid at home to watch the situation, so although the Beijing Division has not been completely controlled by the Dazhong Army, there are not many people on the street.

So at this time, no one will go to the coal mountain to wander, so when Xiao Tianjian came to the foot of the coal mountain with Yu Linwei, there were basically no people here, only a group of soldiers and horses who had just been sent by Liu Yaoben were holding torches to climb the coal mountain and were searching the mountain comprehensively.

The reason why Xiao Tianjian stayed uncomfortably in the Forbidden City at this time was actually because he knew that after Li Zicheng entered Beijing in history, Chongzhen was desperate and unwilling to surrender Li Zicheng, and finally chose to run to the coal mountain and hang himself.

With the deployment of Liu Yaoben, more and more soldiers began to concentrate in the area of the coal mountain, and launched a large-scale search, from time to time some palace maids and eunuchs who escaped from the public were caught by them, and then escorted down from the mountain.

Xiao Tianjian saw many eunuchs and palace maids who were escorted down along the way, and people immediately asked them if they could see Emperor Chongzhen.

These eunuchs and palace maids shook their heads one after another, so Xiao Tianjian continued to walk all the way up the mountain.

Everyone didn't quite understand why Xiao Tianjian attached so much importance to the place of Coal Mountain, in their opinion, the Beijing Division is so big, even if Chongzhen escapes from the Forbidden City, there are still many ministers' homes in this Beijing Division, he can find a trustworthy minister's family to hide first, and he will not run to this small coal mountain to hide!

But Xiao Tianjian insisted on searching the coal mountain overnight, and came to the coal mountain in person, so that they could not object, after all, the coal mountain is at the back gate of the Forbidden City, and it is not unreasonable for Xiao Tianjian to suspect that Chongzhen fled here.

So under Xiao Tianjian's will, even Yu Linwei immediately joined the search for the mountain......

Just when Xiao Tianjian came to a small pavilion and just sat down to rest, someone ran towards his location, and when he was blocked outside the pavilion by Yu Linwei, someone shouted: "Your Majesty!" The Dog Emperor has been found! ……”

Xiao Tianjian had just sat down, his buttocks had not yet warmed up, and when he heard this voice, Huo Ran stood up, and a brisk step ran out of the pavilion, grabbed the team general who came to report and asked, "Really?" Where is he? ……”

When Xiao Tianjian, under the leadership of this team general, walked quickly to an inconspicuous place at the northern foot of the coal mountain, he suddenly saw a large number of generals of the large and medium army gathered in front of him, and there were a lot of lantern balls and torches, illuminating the place.

From a distance, Xiao Tianjian saw a person in a yellow robe, hanging on a pine tree, and on a tree not far away, there was also a person hanging there, slowly swaying there with the breeze.

Xiao Tianjian's heart chuckled, although he hadn't come close yet, but who else could wear a yellow robe embroidered with a dragon pattern in this era?

So he immediately walked under the pine tree, looked up, and saw this man in the yellow robe of the dragon with his hair scattered and hanging from the branches, and beside him kneeling two shivering eunuchs.

"Your Majesty! This person is the Dog Emperor Chongzhen! These two eunuchs have already confirmed it! "The one in charge of guarding this place is a company commander under Liu Yaoben, as soon as he saw Xiao Tianjian coming on foot, he immediately greeted Xiao Tianjian with a happy face and said to Xiao Tianjian like a treasure.
