Liu Guozheng's expression was very serious, and he said: "Your Majesty insists on going to take a look at the discussion of the Ming Dynasty and the civil and military affairs, and the lower officials can be arranged, but for the sake of safety, the lower officials must abide by the arrangements of the lower officials before they can make the trip." ”

Seeing that Liu Guozheng agreed to his request, Chongzhen was overjoyed, and hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot: "I promise to obey the general's arrangement, and the general will please speak." ”

"Your Majesty can do it without just listening to the debate?"

"No problem, I know that once I open my mouth, I am afraid that it will be difficult to hide from the ministers I know well, and the general will continue."

"Your Majesty's current disguise is not enough, and you have to put on makeup for Your Majesty to hide it from others."

"This is more feasible, and the general can arrange for someone to come right away."

"There are different opinions, it is normal for those civil and military officers to speak disrespectfully, and there will be big rebellious words, Your Majesty must watch and listen with a normal heart, not too sensitive, let alone indignant."

Chongzhen was silent for a moment, and said: "As expected, I have already been closed from the ghost gate, and too many things have been seen, and I can do it without shock." The general can rest assured. ”

Liu Guozheng looked at Chongzhen with a smile on his face and teased: "Not necessarily! Can His Majesty be indifferent when he sees His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”

Since saving Chongzhen, Liu Guozheng has given him a minimum of respect, but he is not treated as a courtesy, and when he gets along with King Nan in peacetime, such as Liu Guozheng, these confidants speak more casually, and they never understand what it means to be submissive.

Therefore, Liu Guozheng and Chongzhen's getting along and talking have always been equal, and Chongzhen, who lived for the rest of his life, has also changed a lot, and no longer communicates with Liu Guozheng, Li Xihan, and Wang Chengen in a condescending tone.

Speaking of the crown prince, Chongzhen couldn't help laughing and said, "Haha, I can see Hong'er I am already in a state of excitement again, and it doesn't matter if I don't recognize each other for the time being." ”

This is indeed Chongzhen's heartfelt words, what he is most worried about is the comfort of the prince, and it is better to be able to see him alive well than anything else.

Chongzhen is so cooperative, of course Liu Guozheng will try his best to arrange, so that the Ming Emperor can put himself in the shoes of the people to see the people's hearts and minds is very beneficial, if the Ming ministers find that their words and deeds have long been seen by Chongzhen, who escaped from death, I am afraid that these ministers will open their bows and do not look back.

The following days were quite peculiar, Chongzhen's chin was shaved clean, wearing the "Nanming" from Siping military attache costume, and Wang Chengen, who was wearing a scribe's robe and a few long whiskers pasted on his chin, mixed in the restaurant and teahouse.

They also often go to the Wanghailou Hotel to participate in civil and military gatherings, of course, Liu Guozheng and Li Xihan have always been around, and there are dozens of special forces arranged around.

During these days, Huangjiawan Island became the political center of the Ming Dynasty, and the street talk was all persuasion, and occasionally some ministers talked about the first emperor Chongzhen, and they all shook their heads and sighed.

A few days later, Chongzhen met the crown prince Zhu Cihong sitting on the main seat in the banquet hall of the Wanghailou Hotel.

Although it has only been separated for more than half a month, Chongzhen already has a feeling of being in a different world, looking at his eldest son, his eyes are blurred with tears for a while......

Liu Guozheng had already been mentally prepared, he and Li Xihan and Wang Chengen pretended to stand up and talk without a trace and covered Chongzhen with their bodies.

They knew that Chongzhen should be unable to help it, and he should be able to deal with it calmly after letting him vent.

The civil and military generals of the Ming Dynasty did not notice Chongzhen, and even if someone did, they would not recognize this young man with a clean chin as the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

In the Ming Dynasty, no one shaved at all, and paid attention to "the body is skinned, and the parents who receive it dare not destroy it, and the beginning of filial piety." ”

Huang Sheng couldn't think of why shaving would have something to do with filial piety, ignoring those ridiculous remarks, he should shave the beard, and now many civil and military generals in "Nanming" follow the example of Nanwang without beards, and the soldiers rarely have beards.

Chongzhen had a regular life during this time and was in good spirits, and he was almost unrecognizable when he shaved his beard and looked in the mirror for the first time in his life, and he felt that the handsome guy in the mirror was not himself.

Even Chongzhen himself thinks that if he is judged to be the same as before, those ministers who have only seen the emperor from a distance before will certainly not be able to see it, and besides, a low-key "Nanming" middle and low-level military attache will attract attention if he does not speak.

Wang Chengen is indeed familiar with many Ming civil and military affairs, but who would think that the scholar with a long beard is actually the dead eunuch Bingbi, Wang Chengen knows that he can't speak in front of outsiders when he is killed, otherwise his unique sharp voice will immediately attract too many people's attention.

The former Ming civil officials and military generals who gathered in Wanghailou were not of low grade, and they had no scruples to talk about the Ming Dynasty and the "Southern Ming" as one, all looking forward to this superpower that was about to be born.

Of course, a great country and a strong country need a strong emperor, and everyone agreed that the king of the south must be invited to the throne in order to be able to govern the country and level the world.

I thought that Chongzhen would be furious when he saw those Ming civil and military who were talking so wildly, and he would be furious when he heard these discussions, but who knew that Chongzhen, who even looked down on life and death, looked silently with the state of mind of a bystander, but the eyes of those ministers gradually became cold.

Back at the residence, Wang Chengen saw that His Majesty had not said a word for a long time and comforted: "Your Majesty, it is normal for people to go to high places and water to flow to low places. ”

Wang Chengen and the emperor have experienced life and death together, and the two have become much closer, and Wang Chengen is basically outspoken when he speaks.

Chongzhen didn't feel harsh when he heard Wang Chengen's words, he said:

"Wang Companion, I don't think that they are wrong to choose the king of the south as the emperor, on the contrary, if I choose, take the safety of the world and the livelihood of the people as my own responsibility, the king of the south will be the best in the world. It's just that I feel that the ministers are ruthless and desolate. ”

Wang Chengen didn't expect the emperor to say this, he actually didn't know what his position was, he just thought: Your Majesty is so completely dependent on the protection of the king of the south to be able to live to this day, what can you take to compete with the king of the south who is in the middle of the day?

He had long wanted to persuade the stubborn Chongzhen to take a step back, but now from his voice, he heard that it seemed that the emperor did not exclude the king of the south from sitting in the world, but felt inexplicably comfortable in his heart.

He continued to revere Zhen Zhen and said: "Your Majesty, this is nothing, the world is crowded only for profit, as long as they don't choose to surrender to the thief." ”

Chongzhen sighed and shook his head: "The time is poor, but it's a pity that I didn't distinguish between loyalty and treachery before, and I didn't expect many ministers to surrender to thieves, it's sad and lamentable!" ”
