I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

March [-]st, outside the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City.

Zhu Youxiao wears a crown that reaches the sky and wears yellow brocade uniforms sitting on the gate tower of the Meridian Gate. Wei Zhongxian, the supervisor of etiquette, and other eunuchs holding pens guard him.

He looked down and saw the Jin Yiwei and the Han generals as a guard of honor, standing neatly on the east and west sides of the imperial road in front of the Meridian Gate.They stood east and west outside the Meridian Gate, with dragon flags flying, showing their majesty.

Wencheng's military generals and nobles stood in line. The civilian officials were led by Ye Xianggao, and the military officers and nobles were headed by the British Duke Zhang Weixian. They stood in the south of the imperial road in front of the Meridian Gate Tower. error.

Looking down the Imperial Road at the Meridian Gate, on the east side of the Royal Road in front of the Meridian Gate there is a large case displaying a public display (a message of good news), with one publicity officer and two display officers.The prisoner-presenting officer of the Ministry of Punishment is located slightly south of the east side of the imperial road in front of the Meridian Gate, facing the west.

To the southeast, I saw several columns of prisoners dressed in prison uniforms, with golden rat tails on their heads, tied with ropes, and kneeling on the ground to capture prisoners.

At the front of them was an old man with gray hair and a haggard face who was being guarded by several people. He was clearly the captured Nurhachi.

He was tied up by Wu Hua Da Da and pressed to the ground, but he had no intention of struggling and knelt down on the ground as if resigned to his fate.

This is the ninth time he has come to the capital. The previous eight times he came here were as generals of the Jianzhou Guard, but he never entered the Forbidden City to meet the Ming Emperor in person.

And now for the ninth time, he finally met her, but in this form.

Thinking of this, Nurhaci still vaguely remembers the first time he entered Beijing. At that time, he was in his thirties and had just conquered the Five Divisions of Jianzhou. He was considered a high-spirited time.

But after entering the capital, he felt an unprecedented shock, and his confidence suffered an unprecedented blow.

In the past, he felt that Liaoyang's population of 10 was already too large.But as soon as I arrived in Beijing, I saw the endless flow of people in Beijing and the huge crowds.It can be said that the people he saw on the street alone were more than the entire Jurchen population.Only then did he understand what the Great Ming Dynasty was and what the Great Celestial Dynasty was.

Especially when he finally entered the imperial city and was ordered by the Jurchen tribes to worship the emperor outside the Meridian Gate, he was shocked beyond words.

The majestic palace, the vermilion city walls, and the broad royal road, with the officials of Honglu Temple singing and singing, and under the attention of the tall and powerful generals on the left and right, they worshiped at the Meridian Gate again and again to express their respect for the emperor.

At that moment, he also understood the majesty of the emperor, which made him feel ashamed.

But as he came to Beijing more and more, the original sense of mystery in the capital gradually disappeared.

The emperor who hid in the palace, the eunuchs who were greedy for money, and the civil servants who only focused on internal fighting made him realize the weakness of the Ming Dynasty time and time again.

Subsequently, the Seven Great Haters raised their troops, and the great victory of Saerhu, the capture of Fushun, and Kaitie also built up his confidence again and again, and he felt that the Ming Dynasty was nothing more than this.

But everything suddenly became different after the new emperor took over.

The Ming Dynasty seems to have taken on a new look, with a steady stream of soldiers and horses coming from other places, and the battle will never be finished.There are also various artillery weapons, which make them completely unable to fight back.

God no longer favored them. The continuous natural disasters in successive years made the Jurchens unable to resist and had to kill the goose to obtain the eggs.However, Daming relied on supplies from other places to continue its offensive against them in Liaodong.The result became clear after that, as bad news came one after another, making him breathless.

Hunhe and Puhe were defeated, Fushun and Kaitie fell, Amin and Manggurtai surrendered, Daishan was killed, he was captured, and Daijin was destroyed.

Therefore, he has always had a doubt in his heart, that is, why is this happening?Why was Ming Dynasty, which was constantly fighting among itself, suddenly able to reverse the situation?Finally, in Liaoyang, this doubt was answered.

Xiong Tingbi told him that all this was because the new emperor came to the throne. Since he came to the throne, he has worked hard to govern and made the elimination of the Jurchens his top priority.

As long as Xiong Tingbi asked, he would agree to anything. He would be rewarded for his merits and money would be paid out.At this point, the king and his ministers worked together as one, and the soldiers worked hard, and finally achieved today's results.

Thinking of this, Nurhachi struggled to raise his head and looked at the Meridian Gate Tower in the distance that was blocked by the crowd, wanting to see what the Emperor of Heaven looked like above.

But as soon as he raised his head, he was pinned to the ground by the Jin Yiwei who was watching and pressing him down, making him unable to move.

"Please be gentle with your hands. His Majesty will want to see him in person later. If anything happens, we will be in trouble."

The flag officer in charge of the guard quickly stopped him. This was the protagonist of the prisoner ceremony, so it was better to be careful.

Beside Nurhaci and other prisoners, there were dozens of people standing silently with their hands down.

Among them were Chen Liangbi and Xiong Tingbi, followed by Jiang Lin, Tan Mian and other generals from the Beijing camp, as well as Huang Degong, Sun Yingyuan, Zhao Lijiao and others standing behind Chen Liangbi; while Yang Zhaoji, the general from Xuanda, He Shixian from Liaodong, and Kaitie Generals like General Heshun and other generals who had made great achievements in pacifying She'an and Jianlu also stood behind Xiong Tingbi.

No one among them is not excited now, even Chen Liangbi.

Because he had received a hint from the emperor that this time the emperor would fulfill the promise he made when he first met him.The same is true for the rest of the people. They fought bloody battles for the imperial court and finally succeeded today.The imperial court lived up to their promise and fulfilled it today.

Zhu Youxiao sat motionless on it, looking at the solemn scene below, feeling even more excited than at the prisoner presentation ceremony of the last She'an Rebellion.

However, he still forced himself to calm down and nodded to Wei Zhongxian who was on the side. Wei Zhongxian immediately understood and then signaled to the officials of Honglu Temple on the side that the prisoner presentation ceremony could begin.

"Crack, crack, crack~"

In the Meridian Gate Square, the Han general waved his arms vigorously and hit the several-meter-long whip on the ground, signaling the beginning of the prisoner presentation ceremony. All the civil servants and generals present were solemn, and the main show was about to begin.

"The Emperor, who was entrusted by heaven, issued an edict: The Jurchens have been obedient and guarding Liaodong since the founding of the country. The current Nurhaci is General Longwu of the Ming Dynasty. He has been favored by the emperor and received heavy rewards from the court. However, he has ulterior motives and intends to rebel and stir up trouble in Liaodong. The crime of massacring Liao people is unforgivable.

But I had no choice but to use troops to pacify the people, so that the monarch and his ministers could get along with each other, and the soldiers used their lives to defeat the Jurchens, wipe out the Jianlu, and capture the leader of the thieves Nurhaci alive.The first thing to do is to tell Jue that things will come true, so that disaster can be relieved, clean things can be hoped for, and it is the blessing of peace in the billions of years.

I have worked hard on the foundation of the country, trying to transform the world with culture and morality, and I have considered military strategies. The court officials said that building prestige and eliminating admiration is a good way to show off my achievements in Youyong.A grand ceremony was held at the Meridian Gate, where enemy chieftains were captured alive under the palace gate to demonstrate the Ming Dynasty's martial arts and majesty.
