The year of the pig in the lunar calendar, the fifth day of the ninth lunar month.

The English Parliament, thousands of miles away, bought King Charles I back for a high price of 400,000 pounds and imprisoned him in the castle of Hosby.

In China, thousands of miles away, a young man stood on a long bridge with a history of more than 400 years, looking at the majestic walls of the imperial capital.

Charles I of the West is now thinking about how to escape from his enemies, while the young King of the East is thinking about how to make his people reborn as soon as possible.

There are many stone lions on Lugou Bridge. Some of them have long bodies and a large proportion of lion heads. Some have slightly short bodies, either stepping on hydrangeas, or small lions, or small lions on their bodies, with different shapes.

Along the way, various stone lions made the young King of Rebellion nod frequently. Finally, he stopped on the stone elephant on the west side of the long bridge and asked Gao Jin who was following closely behind: "How many concubines are there in the former Ming emperors? "

Gao Jin was the dead soldier who was ordered to go to Henan to contact the Dashun Army in Huaiyang. Since then, he has been in charge of the Huai army's intelligence network. His younger brother Gao Wu did something similar to his brother in Jiangnan.

Gao Jin formed not only the Shun Army's intelligence network in the north, but also the work of assassinating and bribing the civil and military officials of the Qing court.

In more than a year before Dashun marched into Beijing, Gao Jin's subordinates disguised themselves as personnel of various identities and mingled in the north to spy on the realities of the Qing army, and effectively cooperated with the Sixth Town that advanced northward and the subsequent Northern Expedition Army.

The fact that Gao Jie's troops in the sixth town were able to mobilize the Qing army at all times instead of being bitten by the Qing army was due to the continuous information provided by Gao Jin.

In order to distinguish the intelligence network organized by the Gao family brothers in the north and the south, the Huai Army also called the northern system led by Gao Jin as the "Da Gaoying", and the southern system led by Gao Wu as the "Xiao Gaoying".

With Dashun about to establish a formal central government in Beijing, the "Dagao Camp" that had a great independence must be included in the new regime system. At present, Gao Jin has submitted his roster to the State Administration, which is to not only obtain a formal title for his subordinates in the New Dynasties, but also to express his loyalty to the King of Chuang.

However, Lu Si did not hand over the intelligence system that Gao Jin was responsible for to Zuo Gu Junen, but instead handed it over to Jia Hanfu, the army officer of the camp, which was somewhat similar to the former Ming Jinyiwei.

Lu Si himself is still considering whether to build an intelligence organization similar to the Jinyiwei that is independent of the government system.

This move has both pros and cons, and he must weigh the pros and cons before making a decision.

Since Gu Junen and others were asked to start writing history for the Ming Dynasty after the establishment of the new dynasty and protecting the Ming Tomb of Changping, many concubines in the former Ming Palace should also be properly placed.

According to Lu Si, there were many concubines living in Taichang, Tianqi and Chongzhen dynasties, such as Xi Li, the protagonist of the famous "Palace Movement Case", who was famous for the three major cases, and Concubine Li Kang, who was alive.

There were also some concubines of Emperor Tianqi who were still alive. Although Chongzhen asked the queen to commit suicide before his death and asked the other concubines to commit suicide, some people still survived.

"For these former Ming concubines and the still-predecessor princesses, you must properly settle what you can find. If you have relatives take her back home, you will be given some money to support you. If you have no relatives and children, please properly settle them in the capital. Don't let people say that I am harsh on the previous dynasty. We can't even be inferior to the Tartars."

Lu Si had no intention of going to Changping to worship Chongzhen because this involved the legitimacy and justice of the Dashun regime. Even if he wanted to worship Ming Tomb, he could only go to worship Ming Xiao Tomb.

As for other former Ming royal families, royal relatives, Lu Si means that as long as these people do not oppose Dashun, they will be Shun people in Dashun as civilians. In the future, their children can also participate in Dashun's imperial examinations, and there is no need to discriminate against them.

Gao Jin kept the instructions of King Chuang in his heart and replied that the whereabouts of three former Ming concubines had been found, and the rest were searching for them.

Lu Si nodded and asked Gao Jin another thing: "Has Concubine Dou found it?"

This Concubine Dou was actually a palace maid in the Ming Dynasty. After Lu Si’s father-in-law Li Zicheng entered Beijing, he adopted this woman as his concubine, so the nominal palace maid named Dou is Lu Si’s "mother-in-law" of the new King of Rebellion.

Li Zicheng left Beijing in a hurry, but for some reason he was unable to bring this Concubine Dou with him, so he was missing.

Two days ago, Empress Dowager Gao from Xi'an sent someone to the camp, hoping that the camp could find the whereabouts of Concubine Dou, and Lu Si would treat this matter as a major matter for both public and private matters.

"After the late emperor left the capital, Concubine Dou's whereabouts were unknown, and his subordinates had sent people to search. However, there are rumors that Concubine Dou was ravaged and killed by the eunuch in the palace."

Gao Jin was not very sure about this, because it was said that Concubine Dou was killed just by a eunuch in the palace, while others said it differently.

Lu Si was silent for a moment and ordered Gao Jin: "The eunuchs and palace servants in the palace must pass it over. No matter what method you use, in short, you must see the corpse when you die and the person when you live. After confirming, you must report it to me immediately."

"Subsidiary obeys the order!"

Gao Jin responded and said something again, that is, there are actually many Manchus in the capital who have cut their braids and pretended to be Han people hidden.

"Some of these people occupied the homes without owners in the outer city and pretended to be the head of the household. Some of them colluded with the Han people in the city to make it easier for the Han people to cover it..."

Gao Jin said that because the army had just entered the city, he had not conducted a thorough investigation of the specific situation in the city, but accidentally discovered some Manchus pretending to be Han people. In addition, the King of Rebellion sent someone to order not to kill people the day before yesterday, so Gao Jin did not dare to organize a search without authorization. After all, this could easily lead to the uninformed Beijing residents panic again.

"It's because of human nature."

Lu Si patted the stone statue beside him, but did not give any specific instructions on the matter.

Gao Jin lowered his head and thought, not knowing what the King of Chuang means.

The secretary of the camp Jiang Xueyi came to ask if he could set out to Beijing.

"Of course I have to go to Beijing, otherwise how could I take the exam as the King of Breakthrough?"

Lu Si turned over his horse, and his personal soldiers waved the flags on both sides. Suddenly, the sound of shaking cannons sounded on the Lugou Bridge.

"The King of Breakings has an order, enter Beijing!"

The guard commander Chen Weili tied the reins and rode the horses, leading 800 cavalrymen to lead the way first. The eight hundred war horses divided the four colors of blue, red, white and black. The war horses and knights all wore armored clothes, majestic. After the cavalry, 1,200 heavy-armored big sword soldiers held their heads and chests, and their flags were waving, which was very energetic.

Under the banner of "Expel the Tartars and restore China", Lu Si, wearing white clothes, was full of energy on a thousand-mile horse seized from Dorgon.

On the first day of this era, he marched towards Beijing with a desire.

Today, he finally realized his long-cherished wish in life.

From this moment on, Beijing will no longer be the capital of the enemy, no longer be a fishy smell everywhere, no longer be a slave, no longer be a lingering poison, but will be a brand new, full of vitality, and upward direction of China.
