Chapter 11 Chongzhen lost control of his emotions

Hao Guangming brought things here to spend the night here.

So I took an electric kettle, a few bags of instant noodles, braised eggs, spicy strips, biscuits, and milk.

Then there are his laptop and toiletries.

After putting the things down casually, Hao Guangming sent a video invitation to Zhu Ayao.

Will be connected soon.

Under the dim candlelight, Zhu Yura and Chongzhen still appeared in the video at the same time.

"Mr. Hao, have you had dinner?" Zhu Ayao asked.

"Yeah." Hao Guangming nodded, and then asked, "How is the situation over there?"

Chongzhen said: "It's probably because of the shortage of siege equipment. The intruders still mainly bombard the city with artillery. But there are many intruders, so I guess there will be a lot more siege equipment tomorrow."

Hao Guangming nodded again.

He can't travel through the past, so he can only listen to what happened in the Ming Dynasty and give some suggestions based on the information collected.

"I collected some information that may be useful to you this afternoon. I will pass it on to you."

"This is great." Chongzhen smiled.

Although he still felt that things were bizarre and difficult to understand, under the current desperate situation, Chongzhen was willing to believe that Hao Guangming was really a descendant of the future, and what he said was true.

Because this is his only hope to save Ming Dynasty.

Hao Guangming had compiled the relevant information on his mobile phone while Zhu Yurao was resting, and sent it to him at this time.

On the other side, the father and daughter put their mobile phones in the middle of the table, reading and copying at the same time.

Hao Guangming divided the information he found into individual characters and events and passed them on one by one.

"It is said that the three battalions of soldiers led by Xiangcheng Bo Li Guozhen were defeated without a fight when Li Zicheng fired artillery to attack the city. Later Li Guozhen also surrendered to Li Zicheng and was tortured to death."

Seeing this information, Chongzhen frowned and said: "Today, many of the three major battalions led by Li Guozhen were defeated without a fight, but not all of them. Otherwise, there would be no one on the wall, and the intruders would have already invaded the outer city.

From this point of view, the historical data recorded by later generations are indeed quite untrue."

Zhu Ailao, who was copying on the side, couldn't help but said: "Father, according to Mr. Hao, he should be from after the Qing Dynasty. It's been an unknown number of years. It's not easy to find these information. How can we guarantee that it is true?

"

After hearing this, Chongzhen glanced at Zhu Aona and sighed in his heart: She is indeed an outgoing woman.

Are women outgoing?

Chongzhen caught a flash of light in an instant, and an idea in his mind became clear.

So the way he looked at Zhu Yuluo changed again.

"媺娖, what do you think of Mr. Hao?"

"Very knowledgeable and kind." Zhu Yuyao was busy copying and answered without thinking too much.

"Is it okay for my father to betroth you to him?"

Hearing this, Zhu Aolao froze immediately, paused with her brush, and made a big black spot on the paper.

Chongzhen continued: "Although Mr. Hao is helping us now, the hope that the capital can withstand the siege of the intruders is still slim.

Since you have an unexpected encounter, you can go there and save your life.

I just don’t know if it was a peaceful and prosperous era over there, or a chaotic era like the Ming Dynasty.

You are a weak woman. If no one takes care of you, it will be difficult for you to survive.

Since Mr. Hao has such a romantic connection with you, and he is a good person, why not marry him, so that your father can feel at ease.

In the future, if the Ming Dynasty is replaced by Jiannu as he said, you can also use his power to revive the Ming Dynasty."

In Zhu Yuluo's understanding, marriage can only be based on the orders of parents and the words of the matchmaker, and she cannot make the decision.

only···

"Father, my daughter is already engaged to Zhou Xian."

Zhu A'ao mentioned this not because she liked Zhou Xian - she had never met Zhou Xian at all, but only saw the portrait once.

She simply felt that it was not good to break the engagement.

"Confused!" Chongzhen couldn't help scolding him, "In the face of the rise and fall of the country, what does your engagement mean?"

Zhu Ailao was startled, took a step away, knelt down and said, "My daughter realizes her mistake."

Chongzhen's expression softened slightly and he said: "That's it. I'll talk to Mr. Hao later."

At this time, Zhu Yusuo thought of another question and immediately said: "What should I do if Mr. Hao already has a wife?"

After hearing this, Chongzhen's brows that had just relaxed a little furrowed again, and he pondered for a moment before saying, "If he has a wife, he will have no choice but to make you his concubine."

Zhu Ailao couldn't help but clasp her hands after hearing this.

She never thought that as a princess of the Ming Dynasty, she would be reduced to being a concubine.

Even though she had a good impression of Hao Guangming in her heart, she felt conflicted when she thought that she might become a concubine.

It's a pity that it's not her turn to make the decision about marriage.

"Get up and continue copying information."

"yes."

The second information is also very short.

"On March 18, Li Zicheng sent eunuch Du Xun into the inner city to negotiate with Emperor Chongzhen, but failed to reach an agreement. In the early morning of March 19, Zhang Jinyan, Minister of War, opened the Zhengyang Gate to welcome Liu Zongmin's troops. At noon, Li Zicheng was guided by Wang Dehua

, enter from Desheng Gate and enter the palace through Chengtian Gate."

Seeing this paragraph, Emperor Chongzhen looked cold and stern, with murderous intent on his face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Both Zhang Jinyan and Wang Dehua deserve to die!"

With that said, he went to open the palace door and said to Wang Chengen who was guarding outside: "Zhang Jinyan is a treacherous thief. Go and seize his house and confiscate his house. The cash, money and food will be used to reward the defenders. Gold, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings will be sent to Wuying Palace."

!”

Seeing Chongzhen's ugly face, Wang Cheng'en did not dare to ask any more questions, but thinking of the current situation in the city, he still bit the bullet and said: "Long live the Lord, can you write a handwriting? Otherwise, I am afraid that there will be more trouble during the arrest process."

"Wait a moment."

Chongzhen said, turned around and closed the palace door.

Wang Chengen subconsciously took a peek inside the palace, and happened to see Zhu Nuao crouching on the table and copying something. There was a strange white light shining through the table.

Seeing this, Wang Chengen couldn't help but murmur to himself: Could it be that what Long Live Lord did today was related to Princess Kunxing?

Before Wang Chengen could think about it, Chongzhen came out with a handwriting.

Wang Chengen could only take orders to do things.

Returning to the palace, Chongzhen saw the third piece of information sent by Hao Guangming.

"Before Emperor Chongzhen took Wang Cheng'en to Meishan to hang himself, he was worried that the women in the harem would be humiliated and damage the royal honor of the Zhu family, so he ordered the concubines to commit suicide. Those who refused to commit suicide were killed by his bodyguards.

Princess Kunxing's left arm was cut off and her right arm was injured. She fainted and died, but luckily survived. Princess Zhaoren, who was only five years old, was stabbed to death by Chongzhen's sword."

Although Chongzhen had heard Zhu Yu'a ask about this matter before, and he had indeed thought about how Cheng Po should deal with the women in the harem, when he saw the written information sent by Hao Guangming, he was unwilling to believe it.

After reading it, his expression was ferocious and twisted, and he said angrily: "No! I will never do such a thing!"

When Zhu Yurao saw this passage, even though she had heard it from Hao Guangming, she still felt hard to describe.

Especially after experiencing what happened just now when Chongzhen forced her to be Hao Guangming's concubine, she felt even more bitter.

Seeing her father roaring out of control, she didn't say a word of comfort.

It wasn't until new messages were uploaded on her phone that she spoke out: "Father, there is another information coming."

Chongzhen did not lose his mind, he just lost control of his emotions for a moment.

Hearing this, he immediately controlled himself and looked at his phone, eager to see some good content.

However, the newly transmitted information from Hao Guangming made him even more shocked and unbelievable.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

But I saw that this piece of information was very long, and the content was as follows——

"Before Chongzhen went to Meishan to commit suicide, he ordered a group of guards to protect the three princes and take refuge in the homes of their relatives. After that, he found an opportunity to leave the capital, go south to succeed to the throne, and revive the Ming Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, the prince brought Prince Ding and Prince Yong to Zhou Kui's house, but Zhou Kui closed the door tightly and refused to accept him for fear of being implicated.

The three princes wandered in front of Zhou Kui's mansion for a while and were captured by the intruders.

Later, when the invading army tortured him for payment, Zhou Kui complained that he had been sold out of poverty and was unwilling to hand over the money, just as he did with Emperor Chongzhen. Liu Zongmin tortured and humiliated his wife and daughter-in-law, forcing them to hang themselves, and also beat and killed his eldest son.

Then Liu Zongmin used torture on Zhou Kui's second son and nephew, and then forced Zhou Kui to hand over his money. It is said that there were more than 500,000 cars of cash alone, and other treasures worth hundreds of thousands of taels.

(There are folk rumors that more than three million taels were copied from Zhou Kui's house, but I don't know whether it is true or not.)

In addition, it is said that after Princess Kunxing lost her arm and fell into coma, she was sent to Zhou Kui's house by loyal eunuchs and palace maids. However, Zhou Kui sent her to the woodshed and ignored her for five days. Fortunately, she survived.

There is also a rumor that Li Chuang was defeated by Jiannu. After withdrawing from the capital, Dorgon led the Qing army into the capital. Prince Zhu Cixiang hid in Zhou Kui's house, but was handed over to Dorgon by Zhou Kui.

Later, Dorgon summoned the ministers of the Ming Dynasty to identify the true and false princes. Except for a dozen people who said it was true, the rest were called false. So the Qing court executed Zhou Kui and the prince together on the grounds that Zhou Kui had presented a false prince.
