please make me king

Chapter 1492 That Crooked Neck Tree

Chapter 1492 That Crooked Neck Tree
The soldiers behind them were all busy, busy stacking the heads in their hands, stacking them high, preparing to pile up a Jingguan.

In fact, the pile is almost piled up. Thousands of heads are piled up together, which is really shocking.

It's just that the building hasn't started yet, because the sky hasn't completely brightened yet, and the bright city soldiers can clearly see the little braids on the heads.

As a benevolent king, King Shun had never done such a cruel thing.

But this time, in order to reduce the casualties of the living, he had no choice but to wrong the dead.

In summer, the sky always dawns very early.

On the Jiashen day of the month of Jiashen in the year of Bingzi, at the six quarters of the hour, the east was already pale, and the scene on the city could almost be seen.

Li Jiyu kept walking back and forth with a big bow on his back, observing the movement in the city.

Seeing the funny, Ah Shan couldn't help but said: "What's the value, why don't you just sit down and have a rest? If you don't recharge your energy, how can you win the battle?"

"You don't understand!" Li Jiyu shook his head and said with a look of loss.

"Why don't I understand?" Ah Shan asked unconvinced.

"Look at my bow!" Li Jiyu couldn't help reaching out to take off the longbow on his back, stroking it like nostalgia.

"Then why don't you show it to me!" Ah Shan was upset, this guy actually dared to tease him.

"Someone has a longbow." Unexpectedly, Li Jiyu ignored him, and instead sang since ancient times, "Shoot the sky at night!"

"Three hundred and eight years, a great reputation!"

It turns out that this moment is just like that moment.

Just as he was singing with his eyes closed, he seemed to have returned to the scene of Renjiazhuang full of guests four years ago.

The sharp-mouthed monkey-cheeked Chen Jindou was in sync with him at this moment, shaking his head and singing the same lyrics with his broken voice.

"Someone brought a longbow, all this has come true!" When he finished singing on his own, he couldn't help saying with a bit of sadness.

What a pity it was me, what a pity it wasn't me!He silently added another sentence in his heart.

"What!" Ah Shan was completely baffled when he heard the words, and couldn't help reaching out to take off his big bow and said, "If you want to say, this is also a long bow, right?"

The bow used by Ah Shan is a typical "Qing bow" that later generations call it. Although it is not as long as the long bow, its shape is also quite thick.

"Then what about this?" Li Jiyu caught a thick arrow and shot it from west to east with the big bow.

When the sky was about to light up, the position of the rebel army was shrouded in the shadow of the city tower.

Li Jiyu's arrow was shooting from a dark place to a bright place, which can be said to be in response to the saying "Shooting at night at dawn".

What do you know?I am oblivious!
Li Jiyu shook his head, looked at Ah Shan with disdain and said.

Straight girl thief, you are playing mystery for me, right?
Immediately that Ah Shan was angry. One Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, and he was about to step forward to find faults and vent his anger.

But suddenly heard a commotion in the city, and then became confused.

"What's going on here?" The two couldn't help but stunned.

Before everyone could react, there was a squeak, and the huge Xizhi Gate suddenly opened, and dozens of soldiers rushed out, shouting loudly: "Marquis Guan Ning Gongji welcomes His Royal Highness King Shun into the city!"

"This, this." Li Jiyu and Ah Shan looked at each other when they heard the words, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a curse.

"Hurry up, hurry up, where is King Shun? If it's too late, things will change!" At this moment, a man who looked like a general jumped out, and he couldn't help shouting anxiously.

"What should we do? Shall we go in or not?" Ah Shan was a little timid now.

This capital city has complete fortifications, Xizhimen has Qianjin Gate, Archery Tower, Urn City and Moon City, it really tricks people into it, I'm afraid they have great abilities, so they can only drink their hatred on the spot.

"You stay, I'll go!" Li Jiyu couldn't help but cast a contemptuous look at Ah Shan and said.

"Why?" Ah Shan asked unconvinced.

"No reason!" Li Jiyu laughed, then got on his horse and led his heavy armored soldiers towards Xizhimen.

While galloping, he chanted loudly: "Eight cows come to sit in the world, only 39 wooden monkeys are left, and eighteen children enter the capital, only then will we know that there is a real dragon in Shuntian!"

"Where is King Shun?" Just as Li Jiyu galloped up to the general, the general Hou Gongji couldn't help asking loudly.

"King Shun is still on his way and will be there soon!" Li Jiyu couldn't help but loudly replied.

"A hero is so daring!" Hou Gongji was taken aback when he heard the words, never expecting this to be the case, he couldn't help but exclaimed.

It turned out that Hou Gongji was none other than the son of Chief Military Officer Hou Shilu.

Both father and son were born in Yulin, and they are the closest friends to Zhang Shun's father-in-law, Wang Shiguo, Wang Shiqin and others.

On Zhang Shun's original historical line, the father and son Hou Shilu, Hou Gongji, Wang Shiguo, Wang Shiqin and others jointly resisted Li Zicheng, and finally the city fell to his death.

It turns out that Wang Qiying's so-called "more than half of the people who sell my Wang's thin noodles" is not a lie.

If it was normal, Hou Shilu and Hou Gongji would naturally not "sell the owner for glory" just because Wang Shiguo and Wang Shiqin wrote a letter.

It's just that now seeing that the Ming Dynasty is over, and the father and son have a new way out, they will naturally think otherwise.

Therefore, when Hou Gongji saw that Li Jiyu didn't know his father and son, he dared to venture into the city, he couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

It's just that Hou Gongji didn't expect that Li Jiyu was bewitched by Chen Jindou's prophecy, and he complied with the words "Eighteen children enter the capital", so he dared to risk himself.

Not to mention how these people care about it, let's say that the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian was shocked when he got the news that the rebels had entered the city.

It turns out that the city of Beijing is divided into four parts: the outer city, the inner city, the imperial city and the Forbidden City.

The Imperial City and the Forbidden City are located within the inner city, needless to say, only the outer city is located to the south of the inner city, and it is not a trap outside the inner city.

And this Xizhimen is the gate of the inner city. Once this gate is broken, the front of the rebel army can point directly at the imperial city. No wonder Zhu Youjian was eclipsed by it.

"Go, Your Majesty, let's go!" Li Banghua, Fang Yizao, Chen Zubao, Fan Jingwen and others hurriedly advised.

"Okay, let's go, I'm leaving now!" Zhu Youjian hurriedly led the crowd, ignoring the prohibition on respect and inferiority, but hurried to the harem.

That Chongzhen went all the way through Zhongji Hall, Jianji Hall, Qianqing Gate, Qianqing Palace, and finally came to Kunning Palace.

Seeing that Empress Zhou was not there, he couldn't help asking loudly: "Where is the Empress?"

"Report to Your Majesty, the Empress is so angry today, she went to the Royal Garden to relax!" A palace official hastily reported back.

"Angry?" Zhu Youjian was almost pissed off on the spot, when is this, and he dares to be angry with me?
There was no way, Zhu Youjian ordered the palace servants to look for her, and at the same time hurried to Chengqian Palace to look for Concubine Tian, ​​but Concubine Tian was still not there.

He turned back and went to Yikun Palace to look for Concubine Yuan, but Concubine Yuan was not there either.

Chongzhen had no choice but to order people to go to Ciqing Palace to look for Empress Yi'an, and at the same time personally lead people to Zhongcui Palace to look for the prince Zhu Cihong, but the result was still not there.

Zhu Youjian is really confused, are you playing "peek-a-boo" for me?
At this moment, some soldiers rushed to report: "It's bad, it's bad, the 'Shun thief' has entered the Chengtian Gate and is heading for the palace!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, let's go, leave the affairs of the prince and the ladies to the ministers!" Li Banghua knelt down and kowtowed suddenly when he saw that there was nothing he could do.

"A country cannot be without a king for a day, and the people cannot be without a master for a day. Please take care of the dragon's body, Your Majesty!"

"Let's go, let's go!" Hearing this, Zhu Youjian cast a desperate look at the familiar palace and the palace people who were already in a mess, and finally closed his eyes helplessly, with tears of regret flowing from the corners of his eyes.

Regardless of what Li Banghua, Shangshu of the Ministry of War said, he already understood that he might never see his queen, concubine and children again.

The so-called "a country cannot be without a king for a day, and the people cannot be without a master for a day" is actually telling him: You just run away and leave other people alone!
Immediately, Zhu Youjian led a group of people and broke into the imperial garden, and after a hasty search at the end to no avail, he fled all the way to Dongzhimen in disappointment.

After finally arriving at Dongzhimen, the city gate was closed tightly and the security was heavily guarded.

Fang Yizao, the governor of Liaodong, couldn't help but stepped forward and shouted: "Who is in the city, quickly open the city gate and let me go out!"

"Hey, there is a high official here? Hurry up and get the reward!" Unexpectedly, the soldiers on the city laughed instead of being surprised, and shot down with arrows and projectiles.

What a pity that Fang Yizao is so capable, but he was shot dead on the spot by random arrows and guns.

"Go, you guys go!" Before dying, Fang Yizao shouted to them.

However, this sentence still reveals that their identities are extraordinary.

"Hey, there are still high officials here?" The people in the city saw that Fang Yizao had been killed, and when they were heartbroken, they quickly sent more than a hundred people to arrest them.

Everyone was fighting and retreating, and managed to escape. After a careful count of the number of people, the chief assistant of the cabinet, Wen Tiren, and Shuntian governor, Chen Zubao, were nowhere to be seen.

"Let's go, let's go to Andingmen!" Fan Jingwen couldn't help suggesting hastily.

However, everyone didn't expect that Andingmen was still blocked, so they had to turn back to Deshengmen.

As a result, they were recognized at Deshengmen, and suddenly these soldiers who were as cowardly as chickens when defending the city became like wolves and tigers at this time.

Everyone was fighting and retreating. Unexpectedly, Fan Jingwen, who participated in the military plane, was old and frail, and was shot to death by someone who was a step too late.

After everyone managed to escape, Chongzhen carefully counted the number of people, and only himself, Wang Chengen and seven or eight guards remained.

"Let's go, let's split up! If there is no Zhen, maybe you can still escape!" Chongzhen, who had been betrayed repeatedly, was already disheartened at this time, and he couldn't help but ordered.

"This..." All the guards couldn't help but kowtowed deeply to Zhu Youjian when they heard the words, and then scattered like birds and beasts.

"Chengen, why don't you leave?" Zhu Youjian looked at the eunuch Wang Chengen who was still standing beside him, and asked strangely.

"Slave. Slave is homeless. Wherever your majesty goes, this slave will go!" Wang Chengen replied in a low voice.

"Then where is Zhen going?" Suddenly Zhu Youjian pointed to the coal mountain next to him, and asked involuntarily.

"Slaves follow life and death!" Wang Chengen replied affirmatively.

"Hahaha!" Chongzhen couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard the words, until he burst into tears.

Then he limped and walked to the foot of Meishan Mountain, found a crooked neck tree, took the jade belt around his waist and hung it on the tree.

Wang Chengen climbed down skillfully, letting Chongzhen step on his back.

Not long after, with a strong force, Wang Chengen was kicked out.

When he got up and took a look, he saw that "Grandpa Emperor" was hanging there struggling for a while, and finally his eyes protruded, his face turned blue, and he hung there motionless.

At this moment, his gaze was looking far away to the west, as if he saw another scene of the death of an emperor there.

For a moment, his expression softened a lot, as if he knew that he was no longer alone on the road to hell!
"Grandfather, I'm here too!" Wang Chengen burst into tears, then untied his belt with trembling hands, found another locust tree, and hung it on it too.

As Wang Chengen's struggling movements became smaller and smaller, the scene at the foot of Meishan gradually became quiet, leaving only the birds chirping in the mountains.
