On the night of March 14, the 17th year of Chongzhen reign in the Ming Dynasty, there were still four and a half days before the fall of the Ming Dynasty in the history books!

In Nanjing, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, over the Xiaoling Mausoleum where Emperor Gao, the great ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, was buried. After nightfall, for some reason, a loud roar appeared out of thin air!

At this moment, in the Imperial City of Beijing, in Duanben Palace, an exclamation suddenly sounded.

"Ouch... Ancestor, you can't do this!"

Zhu Yaofei opened his eyes again, looked around, and then pinched his ears like a self-abuse. Then there was a roar!

The reason why he roared was that he was tricked, and he was tricked severely! The person who tricked him was very powerful, his name was Zhu Yuanzhang!

That's right, it's Zhu Yuanzhang, the tall emperor of the Ming Dynasty who was as tall as a tree in the wind, wise and mighty, kind-faced and cruel-hearted, who killed people without batting an eyelid, and deceived people into disowning them!

As a financial big dog with some small achievements in the financial circle of the magic city in the 21st century, and was given the nickname "Pig Wants to Fly", Director Zhu Yaofei was actually tricked by an emperor of the Ming Dynasty who had been dead for hundreds of years.

Okay, this thing sounds a bit bizarre.

However, for Mr. Zhu, who is a "pig trying to fly" in the financial circle, he has seen a lot of bizarre things, such as "scallops worth hundreds of millions of dollars escaped" of listed companies, "pigs worth billions of people starve to death" and so on.

Which year has not seen a lot of legendary stories break out? Therefore, his ability to withstand and analyze bizarre events has been honed long ago.

He is a certified Level 3 Chartered Financial Analyst! He is also the kind of high-level talent who is particularly good at thinking, analyzing, and bragging... Moreover, he is also a descendant of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty!

Before being tricked by his ancestors, Zhu Dacai was very proud of his "noble bloodline." Zhu Yaofei, who was born in a farming family in Gaoguansha County, Hunan Province (not Changsha City), and his clan all considered themselves Ming Dynasty

Descendants of the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang. The ancestral hall of his hometown has always enshrined the tablet of Emperor Gao, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.

And Zhu Yaofei has kowtowed to his ancestors to pray for blessings since he was a child. Of course, ancestors are awesome and they should bless their descendants, right? Only when everyone is awesome together can we be really awesome.

I don’t know whether he inherited the excellent genes of his ancestors or whether his ancestors were really blessing him. Anyway, Zhu Yaofei basically asked for the same thing when he asked for blessings. This also created the habit of asking his ancestors for blessings every time he encountered big events.

Good habit.

Not long ago, Zhu Yaofei got into another big deal. If he gets it done, he will have complete financial freedom. If he gets it wrong, he might be "supervised" by the China Securities Regulatory Commission, and he will be banned from the securities market for life.

light.

So he no longer worshiped his ancestors at the ancestral hall in his hometown, but went directly to the Xiaoling Mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty in Nanjing to worship!

In front of the brick wall of the Xiaoling Mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty, he bowed three times to his ancestors for blessing, and also made a great wish - as long as he developed, and with the permission of the country, he would rebuild the tombs of his ancestors.

Then he was tricked by his ancestors, and his soul changed into a new body!

Changed into the body of an ancient Ming Dynasty man who was qualified to rebuild Zhu Yuanzhang's ancestral tomb... This is really risky to make a wish, so be careful when praying!

Just like that, everything Zhu Yaofei and Mr. Zhu had worked hard for for half of his life, as well as his parents, friends, wife, and children, all disappeared.

Instead, there is a memory of fifteen years of life, a very unlucky name, and a despairing time window.

The very unlucky name is Zhu Cixiang, and it belongs to the young body occupied by Zhu Yaofei's soul.

As a descendant of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yaofei certainly knew that Zhu Cixiang was the eldest son of Emperor Chongzhen, whose posthumous title was Prince Xianmin.

And now is the time, it seems to be the 13th of March in the 17th year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, but I don’t know if it is the 14th!

If history does not change, this "junk stock" of the Ming Dynasty will be delisted in just four or five days.

The chairman of the "Da Ming Company", Prince Zhu's father, Emperor Chongzhen, will hang himself, and Prince Zhu's mother, Queen Zhou, will also commit suicide and die for the country.

Prince Zhu himself, who became an orphan, would become a prisoner of Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, and disappeared after a battle over a stone... Xu died in the rebellion, Xu was killed by Dorgon's order, and he may have become a monk somewhere in Guangdong.

.

All in all, it’s not a good ending!

"Is this Zhu Cihong? How is it possible..." Zhu Yaofei took a deep breath and said to himself, "But it is definitely not a dream, maybe he is crazy, right? It would be bad if he is crazy, I still have

The big deal hasn’t been done yet! If I’m not crazy yet, then he’ll be even worse..."

There was a squeak.

The door opened, and Zhu Yaofei turned around and saw a middle-aged man wearing a blue robe, a double-arched gauze hat, and a fat face like a dough ball, walking in hurriedly.

When the man saw that Zhu Yaofei had sat up, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Master Qiansui, you are finally awake. You have been sleeping so hard for almost a day and a night, and you can't even wake up... The emperor and

The empress was so worried that she had Dr. Zeng come to see her several times. The empress and Zhang also came to see her in person, not long after she left.

By the way, Mr. Qiansui, you still keep calling me "ancestor", you must be dreaming about Taizu Emperor Gao, right?"

In Zhu Yaofei's memory, this "dough-faced" person was named Huang Dabao, nicknamed Eunuch Dabao, and was Zhu Cixiang's accompanying eunuch.

"Oh, I slept all day and all night..." Zhu Yaofei then realized that the lights in the house were dim and it was obviously already night. He was suddenly startled, "Today is... is it March 10?"

"Returning to my lord, today is March 14th."

Zhu Yaofei asked again: "Is it March 14th in the 17th year of Chongzhen?"

"That's right, it's March 14th in the 17th year of Chongzhen."

"It's still night..." Zhu Yaofei glanced at the dark door and took a breath again, "Not counting tonight, there are only four and a half days left!"

"Four and a half days?" Huang Dabao was puzzled, "Why are there only four and a half days left?"

Zhu Yaofei looked at this silly eunuch and actually thought of joking. He suddenly smiled and said: "In four and a half days, Ming Dynasty will be suspended from listing! Do you understand what suspension of listing is?"

…

Qianqing Palace, Dongnuan Pavilion.

Emperor Chongzhen, who has ascended the throne for seventeen years, is wearing a Yishan crown and a uniform with a coiled collar and narrow sleeves, sitting on a dragon chair. Although the night is dark, Emperor Chongzhen does not feel sleepy at all and does not dare to fall asleep.

Because just this afternoon, a newspaper was sent from Juyongguan, saying that the vanguard of the rebel army had arrived to the north of Badaling!

On the first day of March, the rebel army had just captured Ningwuguan in Daizhou. Zhou Yuji, the general guarding Ningwuguan, blocked the rebels for more than ten days with only 3,000 defenders.

Emperor Chongzhen was still very confident when he received the news that Ningwuguan had been lost. After all, Ningwuguan was still thousands of miles away from Beijing, and there were two important towns in Datong and Xuanhua blocking it. They were two of the nine important towns.

, the gate city is strong, and there are many defenders, it is stronger than Ningwuguan in any case. If the rebels have to attack them one by one, they will not be able to reach the gate of Beijing even if they all fight.

But today is only March 14th, and only thirteen days have passed since the fall of Ningwuguan. The rebellious army has already reached the north of Badaling, marching seven to eight hundred miles to the two important towns of Datong and Xuanhua.

Now the thirty-three-year-old Da Mingzi was completely dumbfounded!

"Your Majesty, the matter is urgent. If I don't go to Nanzhong's house, I'm afraid I'll regret it..." The speaker was a beautiful woman wearing plain armor, plain makeup, and some light crow's feet at the corners of her eyes. Her voice was somewhat His voice was hoarse and anxious, and he seemed to be frightened by the menacing intrusion.

This beautiful woman was the Empress Zhou, the wife of Emperor Chongzhen, and the biological mother of Zhu Cixiang, whose body was possessed by Zhu Yaofei's soul. She spent the whole day in the Prince's Duanben Palace, watching over Zhu Cixiang who was "sleeping for a long time" and listening to his yelling. Such nonsense as "our ancestors can't do this". It wasn't until evening that he was called by Emperor Chongzhen to go to Qianqing Palace to attend his bed.

It was said that he was sleeping with him, but in fact, the mentally and physically exhausted Emperor Chongzhen needed the comfort of his married wife.

After listening to his wife's words, Chongzhen sighed, feeling a chill on his neck, and said: "This matter has been discussed many times, but no one has praised it, so it has been delayed until now. Now that Chuangtei has reached the end of the road, if we discuss it again Moving south, I'm afraid the soldiers at Juyong Pass will become like Xuanda after hearing the news."

Xuanhua and Datong had tens of thousands of soldiers and fortified cities to rely on. Of course, they could not be wiped out by the rebel army in more than ten days. But now that the rebel army is advancing so quickly, there is only one reasonable explanation.

That is to say, all the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty in the important town of Xuanda have become thieves!

Chongzhen glanced at his wife and saw that her eyes were red and swollen. He knew that she had secretly cried. His heart was sad and his eyes were moist. He didn't want to cry in front of his wife, so he changed the subject and asked, "Brother Chun, are you feeling better?"

Brother Chun is the nickname of Prince Zhu Cixiang. Zhu Cixiang has always been in good health and has never been sick. Today, he couldn't sleep for a long time and couldn't wake up, which made Emperor Chongzhen very worried. However, now that the country is facing a national crisis, he really can't take care of it. He asked Queen Zhou to take care of it.

"I asked Divine Doctor Zeng to see me and he said that Brother Chun is not sick." Empress Zhou said, "I just don't wake up... maybe, maybe my ancestors are dreaming."

"Ancestors asked for a dream? That's nonsense!" Emperor Chongzhen shook his head, "How did this once-miracle doctor become Zeng the Immortal?"

Empress Zhou sighed and said: "It would be great if it was really our ancestor who entrusted us with a dream. Now the world can only be peaceful with the help of our ancestors."

Emperor Chongzhen was silent and didn't know what he was thinking.

At this moment, the door of Dongnuan Pavilion was suddenly pushed open, and a eunuch in red robe and arched hat with a loyal face, about fifty years old, walked quickly. When he saw Chongzhen, he bent down and saluted, with a trace of expression on his face. He was overjoyed and said: "Long live my lord, Li Jizhou from Donggongdian Pharmacy came to report that I'm awake."

When she heard that her son was awake, Queen Zhou, who was sitting down, immediately stood up and said to Chongzhen: "Long live this, I'll go and have a look."

Chongzhen asked: "What should I say? Have you let Dr. Zeng see you?"

"Replying to Master Long Live, Qiu Zhizhong said that he has been examined by Dr. Zeng. He is fine and is having a meal now."
