Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 4 4, all the monarchs and ministers in the palace were shocked, and the young prince shone brilliantly
After Zhu Cihong finished speaking, the emperors and ministers of the Ming Dynasty were speechless for a while.

Is Zhu Cihong right?That must be true.

Du Xun was indeed a traitor, and his betrayal directly led to the occupation of Xuanfu, the gateway to the capital, allowing Li Zicheng to enter the capital unimpeded. It can be said that Du Xun died [-] times.

But the problem is that not everyone dares to make the decision to kill this traitor.

Du Xun standing here represents Li Zicheng, the Chuang Wang.

Killing Du Xun was equivalent to slapping Li Zicheng in the face.

Who is Li Zicheng?It is Chuang Wang who occupies the entire Central Plains of Ming Dynasty and almost all the territory north of the Yellow River, has hundreds of thousands of troops, and surrounds Beijing!
Even today's Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty dared not do such a thing as hitting Li Zicheng in the face, but it was done by the young prince Zhu Cihong.

Moreover, he did so resolutely, so decisively!
For a moment, everyone's eyes on Zhu Cihong changed.

This prince has always been known for being modest, humble, and humble. In short, he is a very obedient, polite, and low-key prince.

But today, he did such a thing that no one present dared to do. It can be said that everyone's jaws were shocked.

How did this prince become like this?This is the question that popped up in everyone's mind at the same time.

It's almost like a different person!
At the same time, hope quietly rose in the hearts of some people.

These people originally thought that Da Ming was finished, and they could only watch him die.

But now, seeing Zhu Cihong standing in the hall, they suddenly felt that maybe there was a turning point for things!

Even Chongzhen was stunned for a while, before saying: "Lang'er, you... what are you doing, it's just nonsense!"

After recovering, Chongzhen was really angry.

For Chongzhen, the Ming emperor would definitely not agree to the request of abdicating the throne and offering the city to surrender.

Yes, Chongzhen may have many faults, but there is no doubt about one thing about him, that is, his loyalty and belief in the Daming Sheji.

When Li Zicheng's troops crossed the north of the Yellow River, many people advised Chongzhen to flee south, but Chongzhen did not flee.

When Li Zicheng's troops approached the capital, many people persuaded Chongzhen to send the prince away, but Chongzhen still did not send him away.

In the 17 years since he succeeded to the throne, Huang Taiji and Dorgon have led their troops to the city of Beijing time and time again. Chongzhen may be afraid, but he has never left the city of Beijing!
Because he knows that the Daming is a Daming who guards the gate of Tianzi, and a Daming whose king guards the country. Without the capital, Daming can only perish!
Chongzhen would not surrender, but he did not intend to immediately anger Li Zicheng.

Chongzhen didn't want to kill Du Xun because Chongzhen hoped to use Du Xun to try to delay Li Zicheng's attack speed.

The city of Beijing is not so easy to break through.

Starting from the Wala Grand Master in the Ming Yingzong period, the city of Beijing has been surrounded by enemies many times, but it has never been breached once.

The Mongols can't, the Jurchens can't, and Li Zicheng, a traitor, can't either!
Chongzhen felt that his Daming still had a chance.

Where is the opportunity?

First of all, it is the divisions of Qin Wang from all walks of life in Shandong and North Zhili.

Well, although they were all beaten and disabled by Li Zicheng, maybe there are still...

Then, it was Wu Sangui who returned to the rescue from Liaodong.

In Wu Sangui's hands, he has the strongest army in Ming Dynasty today, Guan Ning cavalry!

As long as these two groups of troops arrive, Chongzhen can defend the capital and repel Li Zicheng's attack, and Ming can continue to exist.

But now, Du Xun's death will inevitably anger Li Zicheng, making him attack the city with all his might.

Without foreign aid, this is definitely the worst situation!

So Chongzhen was very angry and scolded Zhu Cihong.

"I told you a long time ago, I told you not to be impulsive! You killed Du Xun now, if Li Chuang found out about this, wouldn't it be a big trouble for Daming!"

Looking at the angry Chongzhen, the other ministers present did not dare to speak, but the thoughts in their hearts were actually similar to Chongzhen's.

For these ministers, Li Zicheng's soldiers had arrived, and they were trembling in their hearts, wishing to surrender as soon as possible.

Now that Du Xun died, they were even more frightened, for fear that after Li Zicheng entered the city in the future, he would use this as an excuse to kill them all present.

For a while, no one dared to stand up and speak for Zhu Cihong.

Some people thought: "Although this prince looks decisive, he is still young and reckless in the end, acting recklessly. It seems that such emperors and princes in the Ming Dynasty are doomed to perish!"

Zhu Cihong listened to Chongzhen's scolding, but he didn't care in his heart.

Because Zhu Cihong is also very clear that Chongzhen is really at the end of his rope at this time.

The subjugated emperor of the Ming Dynasty in history, he really has no choice.

Just as Zhu Cihong was about to say something, suddenly a flash of lightning tore through the sky, and then deafening thunder instantly filled the entire world, interrupting Zhu Cihong's words.

Afterwards, Wang Chengen rushed in, out of breath, and reported to Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the army of intruders has already started bombarding Changhua Gate and launched a siege!"

As soon as this remark came out, the faces of the emperors and ministers of the Ming Dynasty immediately turned pale.

Li Zicheng began to attack the city!

This time, can Daming still stand up?
On the other side, Zhu Cihong, who was temporarily ignored, also came back to his senses.

What am I here for?

Sign in.

Now that the first sign-in task has been completed, why am I still arguing with Chongzhen here?
I have to do the mission quickly and save Daming!
At this time, the system voice sounded in Zhu Cihuang's mind again: "The next check-in location is Changhua Gate. Please arrive at Changhua Gate before midnight today to receive the reward."

Zhu Cihong took a deep breath, turned around and left Fengtian Hall.

Of course, this scene was not hidden from Chongzhen, Chongzhen thought that Zhu Cihong was afraid to leave, so he hurriedly shouted: "Hong'er, stop!"

Zhu Cilang stopped in his tracks, glanced at Chongzhen, shook his head and said, "Father, I know you are dissatisfied, but I am busy saving Daming now, so I don't have time to argue with Father!"

After saying this, Zhu Cihong ignored Chongzhen who was pale with anger, suddenly raised the pistol in his hand, and slowly swiped across the bodies of the officials of the Ming Dynasty present.

This action immediately frightened the ministers of the Great Ming Dynasty. They screamed and scrambled and scrambled to dodge. Some people hid behind the pillars of Fengtian Temple, and even ran away with their official hats.

Seeing this, Zhu Cihong couldn't help shaking his head.

Ugly!

Now that you have done it, you might as well do it absolutely.

Zhu Cihong said loudly: "I know what you are thinking, but I tell you that Daming is not dead yet! If you want to surrender to Li Zicheng, you should open your eyes and take a good look at Du Xun on the ground! Remember, who dares to surrender , I will directly kill his entire clan!"

After saying this, Zhu Cihong ignored the emperors and ministers of Ming Dynasty in the palace, and hurriedly left Fengtian Palace.

After Zhu Cihong left, it took a long time for the emperor and ministers of the Ming Dynasty in Fengtian Palace to return to normal.

The somewhat petrified Chongzhen sat on the throne, watching the direction of Zhu Cihong's departure, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Why is this son so different from before?
After a while, Zhu Cihong got into the carriage and said to the driver in a deep voice, "Rush to Changhua Gate at the fastest speed!"

If Zhu Cihong remembers correctly, Li Zicheng's Chinese army camp is just outside the Changhua Gate!
