Chapter 622: The Woman in the Mansion
Hong Xiuquan died. The soldiers of the Heavenly King's Army all knelt down and surrendered.
Moreover, the soldier who killed Hong Xiuquan held his head high with one hand, which was still bleeding drop by drop, and the other hand was on the ground, very reverent, as if he was using Hong Xiuquan's head to sacrifice.
Li Zhen and Lu Shaochuan and his party stood outside the main hall, looked at the soldiers who surrendered in the main hall, and immediately ordered: "Yang Banhou, collect all the soldiers' weapons, and send an order to Nanjing City, tell the people that Hong Xiuquan is dead!" At the same time, a notice was posted to reassure the people of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. We will not kill indiscriminately when we take Nanjing, we will not trample on the people wantonly, and we hope that the people can do things with peace of mind. ”
"Yes!"
Yang Banhou received the order and immediately began to prepare.
He gave Li Zhen's order, and immediately a soldier rushed into the hall and collected all the soldiers' weapons. Immediately, the soldiers of the Heavenly King Army were driven out of the main hall and all of them were under control. Li Zhen, Smith, Yang Banhou and others entered the main hall, Li Zhen looked at the dragon chair above the main hall, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Hong Xiuquan is really going to enjoy it.
This dragon chair is full of golden light, revealing an intoxicating light. Extravagant and luxurious, no less than the emperor's dragon chair in the Forbidden City in Beijing. It's just that the person sitting on this dragon chair doesn't have the ability to sit firmly.
Lu Shaochuan said: "Dashuai, sit down!" ”
Long Xi looked at Li Zhen expectantly, waiting for Li Zhen to stride up.
Li Zhen pondered for a moment, shook his head lightly, and said: "This is not the place for me to do it, dragon boiling, send soldiers to dismantle the dragon chair on the main hall, take it to the furnace to melt it, and recast it into gold bars." In addition, send someone to bulldoze the steps under the dragon chair and retreat the hall to the ground, without any steps. Then move our conference table and place it in the main hall, as simple and atmospheric as possible, no longer the current luxury and luxury! ”
"Yes!"
Long Xi responded respectfully, a little confused in his heart.
When attacking Nanjing, Li Zhen once showed his heart, and his powerful ambition was fully revealed. However, this time Li Zhen openly refused to sit on the dragon chair and bulldozed the steps of the main hall, what does this mean? Isn't Li Zhen going to go further? Long Xi couldn't understand Li Zhen for the first time, and he didn't understand what Li Zhen was thinking.
However, there is still work to be done.
Long Xi instructed the soldiers to remove the dragon chairs and then prepare for the rearrangement of the main hall.
Li Zhen walked to the first place on the left side of the hall and sat down, looked at Hong Xiuquan, who was lying on the ground with half of the corpse in the hall, and ordered in a deep voice: "Smith, call the person who killed Hong Xiuquan in!" ”
Smith received the order and immediately ordered the soldiers to invite in the man who killed Hong Xiuquan.
The person who killed Hong Xiuquan still carried Hong Xiuquan's head. He put Hong Xiuquan's head on the ground, prostrated himself on the ground, and said with his head: "Sinner Li Yi, meet the Admiral." ”
Li Zhen asked, "You killed Hong Xiuquan?" ”
"Yes! It was the criminals who killed Hong Xiuquan, the big traitor. ”
Li Yiyi didn't dare to raise his head and replied in a low voice.
Li Zhen smiled coldly and said in a deep voice: "Although Ben Shuai and you are the family, it is a pity that you are an unfaithful person. Hong Xiuquan treats you well, but it's a pity that you betrayed him. Because of a group of people like you, Hong Xiuquan will die. People like you, Ben Shuai doesn't dare to take them in. Drag this person down and behead him in public! ”
Two soldiers strode in and grabbed Li Yi's shoulders.
"My lord, spare your life, spare your life!"
Li Yi begged for mercy loudly, but Li Zhen's expression remained unchanged, and the soldiers dragged Li Yi down.
A short time later, a scream was heard outside.
Lu Shaochuan asked, "Dashuai, why did you kill him?" ”
According to Lu Shaochuan's idea, not only should Li Yi not be killed, but also rewarded, so that the Taiping soldiers could be encouraged to kill the people who were in charge of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
At present, Li Zhen killed Li Yi, which made Lu Shaochuan puzzled.
Li Zhen said: "Lu Shaochuan, let me ask you three questions. If it were you, what would you do with the Heavenly King Army that surrendered outside? What do you do with the countless bandit soldiers in the city? What do you do with the people under the rule of Nanjing? ”
When Lu Shaochuan heard this, he didn't say anything.
Li Zhen asked three questions in a row, so he didn't know what to do?
If it was a single question, Lu Shaochuan could easily answer it, but when he thought of Li Yi who was killed, he gradually understood in his heart. The reason why Li Yi was killed was that Li Zhen wanted to make a gesture of revenge for Hong Xiuquan, so that the army in the city could be grateful to Li Zhen, and it would be easier for the people of Nanjing to accept Li Zhen's entry into Nanjing.
For this reason, Li Zhen beheaded Li Yi.
Li Zhen looked at Lu Shaochuan, who seemed to understand but seemed to understand, no longer pointed, turned his eyes to Hong Xiuquan's head and corpse in the main hall, and ordered: "Collect Hong Xiuquan's corpse and bury it in the scenery." Although Hong Xiuquan and I were enemies during his lifetime, others died like lights out, and there was no need to be tortured such as dismembering corpses after death. ”
Lu Shaochuan wrote it down and listened quietly.
At the same time, the hatred in his heart also disappeared.
Lu Shaochuan smiled, and suddenly said: "Handsome, Hong Xiuquan is extremely lustful, he does not allow the people below to marry wives and have children, but he has collected countless beauties." Hong Xiuquan has been in Nanjing for several years, and there are countless women in the harem, probably no less than thousands of people. I heard that Hong Xiuquan, the old man, has eighty-eight concubines, which is even more powerful than the seventy-two concubines of the Manchu Emperor's three palaces and six courts. In addition, Hong Xiuquan also has countless anonymous female officials, and now that he has taken the Tianwang Mansion, these women should also be dealt with. ”
After Li Zhen heard this, he asked, "Why are you so clear?" ”
Lu Shaochuan looked bitter and hateful, and said impassionedly: "Dashuai, you don't know anything. On the way to Nanjing with the soldiers, I met several families who said that their daughter was occupied by Hong Xiuquan and asked me to uphold justice. So, I asked the soldiers to investigate and found out about Hong Xiuquan. ”
Li Zhen sneered: "I clearly remember that when the army was on the way, you never left. On the way, we hardly stopped to rest, and we didn't meet any people. ”
Lu Shaochuan had a thick face, and immediately said: "Dashuai, there is definitely one, you haven't touched it." ”
Li Zhen said: "Lu Shaochuan, you are becoming more and more shameless. ”
"Slander, this is slander!"
Lu Shaochuan shouted grievances, but he didn't admit it at all.
Li Zhen smiled, but no longer talked with Lu Shaochuan. He controlled all the surrendered Heavenly King Army, and took Lu Shaochuan and others towards Hong Xiuquan's harem. Hong Xiuquan's harem is huge, carved beams and paintings, beautiful, and the area occupied is not even lower than the place where the three thousand heavenly kings in the palace live.
Such a huge organization made Li Zhen very uncomfortable.
Because, it's all women.
Lu Shaochuan observed carefully along the way, and praised him: "Hong Xiuquan really knows how to enjoy it, he has added so many places to the harem, and there are really countless women." However, Hong Xiu messes around in the woman's bed all day long, even if she is beaten with iron, she can't stand it, and the iron pestle has to be sharpened into a needle. ”
Li Zhen smiled, speechless at Lu Shaochuan's shamelessness.
This guy is injured, and he is such a scoundrel.
When they came to the harem, all the women in the palace had been kicked out by the soldiers and gathered together. Li Zhen looked at the women standing together densely, and his scalp was numb. He now has Zhilan, Zhou Xiuying, Gu Lina and several other people, and his brain is about to explode, but he didn't expect Hong Xiuquan to be so powerful.
At this point, Hong Xiuquan is extremely proud.
