Coal Mountain was just a small hill hundreds of years ago, known as Qingshan.

During the Ming Dynasty, the Forbidden City was built. A large amount of coal transported from the Xishan Mountains were piled up in the green mountains, and the soil from the moat was dug out here to build a tall earth mountain. In this way, the green mountains gradually became tall and were called "Wansui Mountain". Some people also said that this Wansui Mountain is the "mountain" of the Forbidden City. However, for the people of Beijing, they still like to call the Wansui Mountain Coal Mountain.

Since the Qingshan Mountain became Wansui Mountain, the former Ming royal family planted a large number of flowers, plants, fruits and trees at the foot of this mountain. Emperors of the Zhu family have often come to this mountain to enjoy flowers, drink banquets, or climb the mountain to see the scenery, which is like a royal garden with extraordinary scenery.

But the Emperors of the Zhu family never thought that one day this Wansheng Mountain would become the place where the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty died for the country.

After Lu Si entered Beijing, he did not go to the palace immediately, but took his people to Coal Mountain.

The civil officials only brought Jiang Xueyi, the chief secretary of the camp, and the military generals brought Fan Ba, the commander of the Yulin Army. In addition, they were their nephew Lu Guangyuan.

For safety reasons, Fan Ba ​​proposed that he would take people up the mountain to search first to ensure that there were no remnants of the Tartars hidden in the mountains.

"I have not yet become the lord of the Nine Five, but I am a body of gold. Don't forget that the King of Breaking is also from the sea of ​​corpses and blood, and I have waved a big sword naked in front of the Manchu Formation. There are really a few remnants of Tartars in the Xiaomei Mountain, and what are you worried about? As the saying goes, there are a few fly hitting the wall in the small world. Hum, a few shrill sounds, and a few sobs."

Lu Si laughed, waved his hand, and ordered the eunuch who led the way to lead the way.

"Long live, there were two roads to Meishan before, but the one in the east was interrupted during the Jiajing period, and only this one in the west was left."

The guide was an old eunuch named Wei who was left homeless in the palace. It was strange. This person not only had the same surname as Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch who was the eunuch of the Tianqi period of tomorrow, but also his hometown was from Suning, Hejian.

The old eunuch named Wei Liangchen. The palace he entered in the 36th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, including the five dynasties of Wanli, Taichang, Tianqi, Chongzhen and the pseudo-Qing Shunzhi. If even the Yongchang Dynasty, which had only been more than a month, had gone through the Six Dynasties. Therefore, it can be said that it is a "local snake" in the palace. He is also very smart, and he shouts "Long Live" one by one, with a full face of loyal and honest old slaves.

If Lu Si had not had a good impression of the eunuch, Wei Liangchen, who was loyal and honest, would have to stay by his side to listen to it. For Wei Liangchen, it would be a pity to be over and over, and he would have achieved great success late.

Looking up at the coal mountain covered with weeds, Lu Si felt a little touched and asked Wei Liangchen casually: "Has Chongzhen ever been to coal mountain?"

This is not the time when Chongzhen died.

"If you want to go back, Mr. Chongzhen wouldn't come to Meishan often when he was alive. He had been climbing up the mountain twice on Double Ninth Festival with the queen and the others..."

While speaking, Wei Liangchen quickly broke the branches in front with his right hand to the side, for fear that those blind branches would poke the King of Dashun Lu Chuang.

Jiang Xue glanced at the old slave in the palace who was in his sixties, and his eyes were full of contempt.

Lu Si nodded and silently led his nephew to continue the path that Chongzhen had taken back then.

The higher the trees, the more chaotic they became. Lu Guangyuan had to draw his sword and cut off the branches that blocked the road.

Lu Si noticed that there were many locust trees growing on this coal mountain, and many of them looked like they were probably more than two hundred years old. Xin Chongzhen was hanging on the crooked old locust tree not deliberately, but because the mountain was mostly locust trees.

"You guys go there, you guys go there!"

Fan Ba's guards were responsible for their responsibilities, so he still asked several teams of soldiers to search through the dense forest. Several personal guards who were closely protected were always less than three feet away from the King of Chuang to deal with any possible situation at any time.

Lu Si didn't say anything. He had a heavy burden on the shoulders of the King of Breaking, and his subordinates also had heavy burdens on the shoulders.

"When Chongzhen died, there was really only the eunuch named...oh, yes, that eunuch named Wang Chengen?"

Before Lu Guangyuan came, he heard Gu Junen talk about Chongzhen hanging himself on the coal mountain. He was quite surprised that the only one old eunuch was with him when Emperor Chongzhen died, and he was always a little unbelievable.

"If you go back to the general, it was true that Master Wang followed him at that time, and there was no one else."

Wei Liangchen answered very affirmatively, because after Li Zicheng's army entered the city, he looked for Chongzhen everywhere, but he never found it. For this reason, the Dashun Army also issued a reward order, saying that anyone who could provide Chongzhen's whereabouts would reward a thousand gold, but still did not find it.

The Dashun Army was unwilling to give up, so they organized eunuchs in the palace to search for Coal Mountain. As a result, a eunuch found the horses that Chongzhen rode by horses at the foot of the mountain. Only then did they find the body of Chongzhen and the eunuch Wang Chengen on the mountain.

Wei Liangchen was one of the many eunuchs who were ordered by Shunjun to go up the mountain to carry the body, and he was regarded as a witness to this incident.

"So, that Wang Chengen is also a loyal minister."

After Lu Guangyuan finished speaking, he realized that his statement was a bit wrong. If Wang Chengen was a loyal minister, then what was the Dashun Army and what were they?

"It's true that he is a loyal minister."

Lu Si reached out and pulled his nephew and said to Jiang Xue: "After going down the mountain, you can check where Wang Chengen's body is buried. It would be fine if it was buried in the Chongzhen Mausoleum. If not, then move it over. In addition, if Wang Chengen has a nephew and other descendants, if there is one, choose one of them to move to Changping. On the one hand, we will guard the tomb for Chongzhen, and on the other hand, we will also continue to incense for Wang Chengen. When studying Ming history in the future, we will also leave his name in the history books."

From a class standpoint, whether it is Chongzhen or Wang Chengen, they are all enemies of the people.

But at present, Dashun does not divide the position by class. It is more of a traditional official who forces the people to rebel and change the dynasty. Therefore, even if Lu Si cannot "whitewash" Chongzhen as Emperor Dashun, it is necessary to give respect to the other party and the other party's ministers.

For example, Wang Chengen protects the monarch, is not afraid of powerful enemies, and dies loyally, no matter which position he stands, he should be praised positively.

After all, this is also a traditional concept of the Han people.

At any time, no matter which dynasty or the age, traditional concepts and customs that can be passed down must be respected and maintained.

Because, this is also part of civilization.

Lu Guangyuan looked back accidentally and said in surprise: "Master, you can see the Forbidden City at a glance on this coal mountain!"

When Lu Si heard the sound, he looked down at the mountain. Sure enough, the red wall forbidden palace in the distance was full of sight.

Jiang Xue said with a conscious mind: "This mountain should not be allowed to stay with people with ulterior motives. You can order a ban on the mountain later."

When the old eunuch Wei Liangchen heard this, he hurriedly said, "The mountain was not called to the people before."

"Why can't people go up the mountain? Is it because I can see the palace courtyard on this mountain, so I don't have people go up the mountain? I'm choking and I'm worried that the people will attack the palace from this mountain?"
