Zhu Youjian took his youngest son, the fourth prince Yongwang Zhu Cizhen, and handed him to Concubine Yuan Guifei:

"Take Chen'er and go to Jiangnan. Remember - from now on, unless I call you, your identity will not be revealed. You will be known as an ordinary scholar for the rest of your life. If the current situation is not right, take Chen'er and escape into Buddhism!"

……

The survival rate of children in ancient times was very low. Even the emperor Chongzhen only had three sons and two daughters!

Just in case, Zhu Youjian asked his three sons to flee separately, but he planned to take his two daughters with him personally.

The eldest princess Zhu Ainao (mei, chuo) burst into tears: "Father, I..."

She was so choked that she could not speak. Li Banghua on the side said: "Your Majesty, have you summoned your consort Zhou Lang?"

"Zhou Xian?"

Zhu Youjian sneered: "He doesn't deserve it!"

Princess Kunxing is the one-armed nun in Jin Yong's book. (Changed to Changping in Qing Dynasty.)

However, Zhu Yurao's fate was not as good as in the book. Of course, this was also related to Mr. Jin's cleansing of his ancestors.

Although Princess Kunxing had her arm cut off by Chongzhen, she survived.

After the Manchus entered the country, she wanted to become a nun, but was not allowed by the Qing authorities and was ordered to marry the consort Zhou Xian.

Princess Kunxing, who had only one arm, not only had to cook and do embroidery for Zhou Xian, she even had to help him make friends with Qing Dynasty dignitaries, and even dressed up as a maid, danced and composed poems.

She had a smile on her face, but she was crying secretly.

She cried all her tears, and all she shed was blood!

Half a year later, at the age of only 16, she "died" of illness while five months pregnant!

Zhu Yuluo was forced to marry Zhou Xian in June of the second year of Shunzhi, but she died in February of the second year...

Zhou Xian’s character is evident!

The cold history books record it like this: The princess liked poetry and prose, was good at acupuncture and cooking, and treated the captain as a favor and rewarded her with gifts. The sun is laughing, but in the secret place, we are crying, calling for the emperor's father and mother, and the tears are still flowing with blood. Therefore, I am sick and pregnant for five months...

(Zang Huo: a derogatory name for a slave. Yu: originally refers to a leader. Historical records indicate that Zhou Xian’s family business failed, so this place should be used to dress up as a maid and dance for people’s entertainment.)

This is the so-called benevolence of the Qing Dynasty - a majestic daughter reduced to this level!

Behind the cold sentence in the book is - at the age of 15, five months pregnant, tortured to death...

How could Zhu Youjian, who was well aware of Zhu Yurao's tragic fate, let her marry such a person!

My daughter will be a wealthy and idle person.

Or... death is also a kind of relief!

Chongzhen didn't wait for Li Banghua's reaction and said, "The two princesses will follow me. Li Qing can arrange other things first!"

Zhu Youjian took the 14-year-old Princess Kunxing and held the [-]-year-old Princess Zhaoren towards the front hall.

Even if the three sons were caught by the enemy, they would only die.

However, once these two daughters are caught by the enemy, death is a luxury!

Therefore, he had to take it with him personally.

Is it just the daughter who is being tortured?

actually not!

Historically, Concubine Yuan Guifei did not die. It is recorded in the history books that she was "supported by the Manchu gift", but in fact she only lived for a few months. The city of Beijing was destroyed on the [-]th day of the second lunar month, and she died in May... "Manuscript of Qing History"

For the royal women after the fall of the country, living is the greatest misfortune...

Therefore, it seems that the scene in history where Chongzhen chopped his wife and daughter to death with his own hands was cruel, but in fact it was not another kind of protection for them!

If you can't protect them from having to worry about food and clothing, then you can protect them from a humiliating death...

Looking at history, it is not only the women of the Ming Dynasty who were miserable, but the descendants of the perpetrators were even better.

For example, for the sake of the great family business, a braided emperor dedicated his queen's first blood to the Japanese pirates...

They didn't just sacrifice a queen, they were all happy with the little devil sleeping on the dragon's bed.

Of course, this is also a tradition in the Aijia. It’s nothing for just a little devil’s family to block the hole. The Eight-Nation Allied Forces would have opened up at that time...

……

Zhu Youjian had arranged the funeral arrangements. He was holding the Emperor's Sword and holding the six-year-old Princess Zhaoren in one hand. Next to him was the already-slim Princess Kunxing.

"Yini, tell Father, what do you want?"

Holding the light Princess Zhaoren in his arms, Zhu Youjian felt sad for a while.

The six-year-old children of later generations, who are not heavy, basically weigh more than forty or fifty kilograms.

However, Zhaoren in his arms probably only weighs more than 20 pounds.

The little girl's thin chin is pointed, and her watery eyes look even bigger.

He even thought of a kind of small monkey in the tropical rain forest - the ghost tarsier with eyes so big that when they grow up, they are only as big as a tennis ball.

This child is so thin that only his two big eyes are visible...

"Suck it!"

The little girl's saliva almost drooled on Zhu Youjian's shoulder. She sucked it and her eyes lit up:

"Father, I want to eat meat. I want to eat chicken legs. They are stewed to a pulp and are delicious!"

"Yini!~" Princess Kunxing on the side changed her expression, called her sister, and shook her head slightly.

She has grown up and is well aware of her father's difficulties. The government's political difficulties have reached the point where her mother needs to bring her concubines and maids to weave in exchange for money to subsidize the country...

"Ha ha!"

Zhu Youjian put down the hilt of his sword and took Zhu Weiluo's hand: "Don't worry, I will give you whatever you want from now on!"

Isn't it just money!

He can't do anything in the capital. Once he occupies a territory and makes his own decisions, he can't just have as much as he wants!

Zhu Youjian was about to take another plate of his cute little daughter, but saw a group of people crossing the Huangji Gate.

"媺娟, take care of your sister."

Zhu Youjian handed Zhaoren to Princess Kunxing and quietly waited for everyone to arrive.

The leader was a strong man dressed as a servant. Under the leadership of Wang Lian, he knelt in front of Lord Dan.

"Fan San, the old steward of Caomin Fange, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor." Fan San was sweating profusely and his head was drooped, not daring to raise his eyes to look at the emperor in blue robes.

Fan San? Fan Jingwen?

Zhu Youjian's expression changed and he said hurriedly: "What happened to Fan Qing?"

Fan San raised his head and looked around, but hesitated to speak.

Seeing Fan Sanwei's cautious look, Chongzhen couldn't help but nod and praise him. He was worthy of being arranged by Fan Jingwen to enter the palace!

This caution alone is not something ordinary people can match.

If it had been anyone else who heard the emperor's inquiry, they would have told him already, but this person was asking him with his actions - are the people around him trustworthy?

"It's okay, Fan San, just get up and answer!" Zhu Youjian gave Fan San reassurance.

"Go back to the emperor, my master will be fine."

Fan San stood up and explained, with anger on his face: "Your Majesty, my master noticed that there was something different in the house of the head of the Ministry of Personnel... So he asked me to check if other ministers had summoned their servants. of……"
