"The lonely Yinchuan post soldier, from poverty, running between the sand, the bureaucracy is dim, the corruption is excessive, and it is really helpless to expose the rod, not against His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Now that the army is in the city, there is no choice but to go! This king really did not encounter harm and the diligent and enlightened Holy Son of Heaven, so he sent an envoy! If the imperial court agrees to negotiate peace, cut off the northwest region and seal the king, and list it as a country, and reward one million taels of silver to my army, this king can retreat to Henan, and choke the group of people in the court, and arrive at the Liao Domain!"

"Looking forward to it, look forward to the book of the Holy Son of Heaven!"

Du Xun's hoarse voice, listening to the entire Linfu Hall was silent, how could he not have thought that he was already on the verge of extinction, Li Chuang would even back down, in this way, everyone's glory and wealth will be preserved, and the Ming Dynasty will not die, as for the cession of the northwest, not to mention that this place was already in the hands of Li Zicheng, even if it is not there, there are nine years of barren places in this decade, and no one wants to care about it.

As for the king, if Chongzhen had been fifteen years ago, it would have been unsuccessful, but now that he has been crowned the king of Liao, what can he do if he is crowned the king of Qin, as the so-called son said: One sheep is also driven, and two sheep are also released!

Not only was the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty excited, but even the Son of Heaven such as Chongzhen was thoughtful.

The fate of the empire seems to have taken a turn for the better once again.

But this turning point came to an abrupt end with Emperor Chongzhen's next sentence.

"What do you think?"

…………

The timing copper in the palace leaked, and the water droplets fell into the basin below little by little, and the sound of falling water became the only sound in the Linfu Palace.

As long as one person stands up and nods, this resolution will be agreed, but this time, even a loyal minister like Li Mingrui does not have the courage to stand up! Some people such as Wei Zaode, Li Jiantai and others are worried about Chongzhen's post-autumn accounting, which is not a trivial matter! And some people, such as Li Mingrui and Li Banghua, are worried about the authenticity of this matter, after all, now that the soldiers are in the city, Li Chuang will be so easy to speak?

Once he agreed, he lost his morale, Li Zicheng took the gold and silver and retreated, and then took advantage of Daming's slack to kill a horse pistol, and there was really nothing left! Wasn't this trick used by the Jin Kingdom to destroy the Song Dynasty back then! Poor Song family endured the humiliation of Jingkang, and paid Princess Wang Ji, who had already been the wife and concubine of the minister of civil and military affairs, as slaves to the Jin people, and still did not escape the disaster of destroying the country.

Among them, the most apprehensive is the first assistant Wei Zaode, on his head, beads of sweat are spilling down drop by drop, because the emperor's eyes have always been staring at his head, and now, he can be regarded as experiencing the hardships of Chen Yan roasting on the fire.

However, until now, the old king's eight skills have also been practiced, and even if Chongzhen stares at him, he just doesn't say a word.

I don't know how long the difficult depression lasted, until the last drop of water in the copper drip flowed out, the eunuchs in the palace sounded unchanged, and a ray of sunshine shone in the hall from the east, and the disheartened Emperor Chongzhen finally stood up dullly, and waved his hand to the ministers tiredly.

"All the Qing family have returned to the Yamen to deal with the affairs of the war and retreat from the dynasty!"

Seeing that the emperor turned around and went back to the inner hall, Du Xun, who had been trembling and kneeling on the ground all night, was also picked up by the angry Wang Chengen, pushed and drove out, leaving only the traces of sweat on the ground, and a group of ministers were also stunned, as if the bones of the whole body had been pulled out, and walked out softly. This decadence also seems to show the decadence of the Ming Empire to the fullest.

…………

The court is so weak that this Du Xun doesn't dare to kill it! Sent someone to send him out, Wang Chengen hurriedly followed into the apse of the Linfu Palace, in the back yard of the palace, according to the railing, Emperor Chongzhen was in a daze looking at the swaying flower trees below, a cherry tree did not know that the dynasty was cultivated, in early spring, when everything recovered, when the green sprouts, the trunk of the tree was like firewood in the kitchen, there was no vitality.

Emperor Chongzhen's eyes were fixed on the dead branches.

Guarding the side, Wang Chengen hesitated for a long time before cautiously inquiring on the side.

"Your Majesty, you have also been delayed all night, have you had breakfast before going to the court?"

"No need! Priest and Celebrant Supervisor, strike today! After a while, I want to go to the ancestral hall!"

The ancestral mausoleums of Changping are under the control of Li Zicheng, and now the army is besieging the city, even if it is an early dynasty, in the face of those cabinet ministers who are constantly attacking, what can they discuss? At this time, the emperor seemed to have become a little completely discouraged, at this time, he just wanted to go to the ancestral hall to be quiet for a while, maybe to confess to the ancestors of the Ming Empire, in order to slightly alleviate the depression in his heart.

Listening to Chongzhen's instructions, the sadness made Wang Chengen's nose sour, and he replied with a dull bow.

"The old slave obeys!"

Turning his head, Wang Chengen was about to handle Chongzhen's order, but before he could walk out, the emperor's voice suddenly came from behind.

"By the way, since the relationship between Changping and the King of Liao has been decided, let her go to the Jiguo Mansion more often! It's also considered more filial piety!"

"Your Majesty, this ......"

In this era, the people are still very defensive, not to mention the dignified princess, Wang Chengen immediately wanted to object, but the words had just reached his mouth, but he was swallowed back again, and again, he bowed heavily.

"The old slave obeys!"

…………

On the other side, the rising sun sharpened, waking up the nightmare of the Beijing Division, and at the same time, it also illuminated the siege of the army camp outside the city, with the sound of jingling, the huge military camp was like a huge ant nest, chaotically unfolded, wearing unkempt flower clothes The soldiers surrounded a cauldron, swallowing hot porridge soup, and occasionally the officers took out the canned food seized from Ningwu Pass and poured it in, causing the soldiers to shout excitedly.

Although he proposed peace talks, did Li Zicheng have the sincerity to negotiate peace?

Of course not!

Although Li Chuang is not a long-term visionary and eloquent master, he still has ambitions, and at this time, he wants to eat the Jingshi, even if the subordinates under him do not agree.

This is also the consistent trick of the peasant army, before fighting a tough battle with the imperial court, first give in to the soft cry and cry poor, and then take a cold breath.

So when Du Xun came back, Li Zicheng had already raised his account, gathered all the generals, and prepared to launch an attack on the Beijing Division.

"Minions meet Your Majesty!"

His legs were already weak, and his waist was bent, and as soon as he returned to the tent, Du Xun directly fluttered and knelt on the ground, kowtowing and pleading.

Even if Xi'an is officially founded, but a group of reckless heroes in the Dashun Army, where do they know what etiquette and rules, such as Liu Zongmin, Hao Shaoqi, meet or a big brother, this eunuch respectfully respects Your Majesty, which undoubtedly makes Li Zicheng's heart very useful, looking up from the map, his single eye seems to have a little more laugh lines, full of anger, and shouted and asked.

"Eunuch, how? Then Chongzhen Xiao'er agreed to my peace? ”

"Return, return to Your Majesty, I didn't promise ......"

After all, he has been a eunuch of the Ming Dynasty for a long time, and when he heard Li Zicheng call Chongzhen so vulgarly, Du Xun was still quite unaccustomed to it, and he stumbled, and then replied with difficulty.

"Last night, the slave entered the palace with His Majesty's edict, and announced it in front of the courtiers, Chongzhen and the ministers sat all night, without saying a word, and drove the slaves out early in the morning."

"What's that? Say war or not, talk about peace and discord! These sour people with a few taels of ink in their stomachs are just not happy!"

This result, even the intruders did not expect. The voice was buzzing, Liu Zongmin was honest and honest, and shouted loudly and proudly, and at the same time twisted his face and muttered roughly.

"If you want me to say, the eldest brother is a lot of things, Yuan Manzi's Qin army, we have all done it, just some old soldiers of the Beijing Division, the big blade is chopping, and what kind of salute before the soldiers!"

"That's it! Is it redundant!"

A few rude generals also nodded in approval, but no one noticed that Li Zicheng's bold broad face under the big felt hat seemed to stiffen his smile.

Fortunately, there are still people who can talk, and the two small mustaches that are the same as the dog skin plaster master in the TV series treacherously picked up, Niu Jinxing laughed slyly, and hugged his fist heavily at Li Zicheng.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! The soldiers are in the city, the court is still fighting and two difficulties, the ministers are at both ends of the snake and the mouse, the people's hearts are uncertain, the Ming Dynasty has no heart to fight, this huge world, it will be His Majesty's thing in an instant, congratulations! ”

On the other end, Gu Junen, another strategist, was also smiling, and he also bowed heavily to Li Zicheng.

"At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Taizu asked Liu Bowen about the national fortune, and Liu Gong said: If it is good, it will stop! Now the Ming Dynasty is everywhere in the image of the dead country, officially when Your Majesty Jackie Chan flies to the sky!"

And put on the proverbs! Li Zicheng, who listened to the auspicious words of the two Wenchen, was Longyan Dayue, and the unhappiness caused by a few vulgar martial artists just now also disappeared, he laughed and slapped the table, shook his head and hummed.

"Good! Since Chongzhen Xiaoer didn't even give up the last bit of peace from Lao Tzu, he deserved to lose the country! Come on! Command all the troops to attack the city immediately!"
