Signed to Zhu Cihong, Prince of the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 50 Chapter 50, Zhu Cihong is weak and bedridden, the group of four plans again
Zhu Cihong felt very tired, very tired.

It has to be said that the elixir given by the system is really useful, but the side effects are also really fierce.

The current Zhu Cihong really doesn't even have the ability to move his fingers. The only organs in his body that can move a little bit are the eyes, mouth and tongue.

But even so, it was very difficult for him to speak.

Chongzhen, Empress Zhou, and Zhu Cihong's sisters and princesses all arrived. Empress Zhou cried to death after seeing Zhu Cihong's appearance, but quickly wiped away her tears and took good care of Zhu Cihong.

Soon, Zhu Cihong realized a problem - what should I do if I can't move my body?
……

……

……

Looking at Empress Zhou in front of her and several of her own relatives and sisters, and thinking that the only male around her who could help, Fang Gongqian, had also entered the wounded barracks, Zhu Cihong decided that next time he encountered such a situation, he had to think carefully. !
These three days were destined to be very difficult for Zhu Cixiang.

The victory made the people in the capital unavoidably a little slack, which gave some people who were originally in the capital some opportunities to communicate with the outside world.

A secret letter was sent into the city without anyone noticing in the middle of the night the next day.

Then, a meeting was held in the secret room of Cao Huachun's mansion.

Those who participated in this meeting included Cao Huachun, the former admiral of the East Factory, Wang Huamin, the chief eunuch of Bingbi, the chief assistant of the former cabinet, Wei Zaode, and Zhou Kui, the head of the state.

Cao Huachun took out the secret letter and said to the other three people in front of him: "This is a letter from King Chuang, I can read it to you."

The content of this letter is actually very simple, it is Li Zicheng's promise to everyone in the city.

As long as he can help Li Zicheng break through the city of Beijing, then Li Zicheng can guarantee their prosperity and wealth for the rest of their lives, making them the founding heroes of the Dashun Dynasty!
After Cao Huachun finished reading the letter, the secret room fell into a brief silence.

After a while, Wang Huamin couldn't help but said: "Now that things have come to an end, King Chuang... can he really break through the capital?"

This is not only Wang Huamin's idea, but also the idea of ​​many people.

If it was ten days and a half months ago, almost no one would have thought that Beijing City, short of major generals, would be able to stop the mighty Dashun Army.

But now, with Li Zicheng's successive failures and the death of his generals, many people have been shaken and began to feel—Da Ming, it seems that he can really hold on!

This is why the recent defense line in Beijing is getting stronger and stronger. In fact, the biggest credit here still belongs to Zhu Cihong. It is precisely because Zhu Cihong led the army to win continuously that the hearts of the people in Beijing become more and more united. .

When a large city of tens of 10 people is united as one, it is very difficult for any army to break through unless it has crushing force.

The four people present were all former or present core figures of Ming Dynasty, so they naturally knew this very well.

So after Wang Huamin raised this question, Cao Huachun was obviously choked up and didn't know what to say for a while.

At this moment, Zhou Kui, the patriarch at the side, suddenly said coldly: "Of course King Chuang wants to break through the capital, and King Chuang must also break through the capital! Otherwise, the old man would like to ask everyone, those in our mansion who were killed by Zhu Cihong When will the stolen gold, silver and jewels be brought back?"

As soon as Zhou Kui said these words, the atmosphere immediately changed again, and the expressions of the other three people were obviously different.

Wang Huamin voluntarily donated half of his net worth, so he could keep half of it. The other three were all plundered by Zhu Cihong, and the family had nothing but a thousand cash.

This hatred of copying the house is said with gnashing of teeth.

Wei Zaode's face was ugly, and he suddenly said: "If King Chuang really enters the city, what kind of status can he give this old man?"

Wei Zaode was also entangled. You must know that he was originally the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty. If he surrendered to Li Zicheng, his infamy might not be cleared away.

Therefore, Wei Zaode needs more interests to be persuaded.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

"A member of the cabinet, a bachelor and the secretary of the household department, I don't know if this official position can be accepted by Mr. Wei?"

Wei Zaode was shocked and shouted: "Who is it?"

A figure walked out of the darkness, smiled and handed over to everyone: "I, Niu Jinxing, have met all of you."

"Niu Jinxing?" After hearing the name, everyone was shocked.

Wei Zaode looked at Niu Jinxing in disbelief, then turned his head, and said to Cao Huachun angrily: "Eunuch Cao, are you crazy? If His Majesty and the Prince know that we are meeting with him, then all of us will be ransacked and wiped out." of!"

The expressions of Wang Huamin and Zhou Kui are also very complicated, their eyes wandering on Niu Jinxing and Cao Huachun.

Cao Huachun shook his head, and said slowly: "Everyone's words are wrong, let me put it this way, as far as we are discussing now, if it leaks out, it will definitely lead to a dead end, even if Junjun Niu is present, what difference does it make?" Woolen cloth?"

Cao Huachun's words blocked the mouths of the other three people.

Niu Jinxing smiled and said, "Why should you panic? In fact, the old man is not here for anything else, but to prove the sincerity of our Majesty Dashun."

Niu Jinxing began to offer conditions one by one.

"Master Wei, your conditions have already been stated just now, so I won't repeat them.

Eunuch Cao and Eunuch Wang, you two are still in charge of the Lijian and Dongchang after the city is broken. You two can each recommend three descendants to become officials in the imperial court.

Zhou Guozhang, you are too sensitive to be an official, but our majesty can compensate you for the loss of ten times your wealth, and let your child become a member of our majesty's personal guard, which will be reused in the future.

As for all the wealth taken away by Zhu Cihong this time, it will be returned to the original owner after the matter is completed.Okay, what do you guys think? "

After listening to Niu Jinxing's words, the four people present suddenly felt different.

It has to be said that Niu Jinxing's offer on behalf of Li Zicheng is quite generous and tempting.

After a while, Zhou Kui was the first to grit his teeth and said, "Okay, since Daming can do the first grade of junior high school, why can't the old man do the fifteenth grade? I count this as the old man!"

With Zhou Kui acting as a breakthrough, the other three soon agreed.

Seeing that the four of them had agreed, Niu Jinxing also smiled.

"Then everyone, let us have a good discussion about how to dedicate this city to our Majesty!"
