In addition, after Wu Di from Shanxi was ordered to do so, he also dispatched 20,000 officers and soldiers in two groups, from Juyong Pass and Zijin Pass to North Zhili to assist. However, when they arrived near the capital and learned that the capital had been conquered, they all stopped.

After advancing troops, they did not dare to approach the capital again. Now one group of troops was stationed in Zhuozhou, and the other group was retreating to Juyongguan to garrison. It was obvious that they did not dare to come to the capital again to rescue them.

As for the Shaanxi soldiers and horses under Hong Chengchou, there is no news yet. It is estimated that it will take another month at the earliest to arrive near the capital. On the other hand, there is also no movement from the Guan Ning Army. Not a single soldier has been seen from the Guan Ning Army.

With King Qin at his side, within this month, it is estimated that no reinforcements will dare to attack the rebels.

After Chongzhen heard this, he didn't speak for a long time. He leaned on the dragon chair with his eyes closed, his body curled up slightly, and his expression was very painful.

This was the Ming Dynasty he was in charge of, and these were the officers and soldiers he relied on as the Great Wall. The rebels attacked the capital. Once the capital was defeated, everyone began to wait and see which way the situation would turn. He completely ignored the safety of the emperor. How could Chongzhen not feel sad.

Cao Huachun was also able to understand Chongzhen's current mood. When he saw him closing his eyes and saying nothing, he also stood below and stopped talking. Chongzhen closed his eyes for a while, and gradually his mood calmed down again. No matter how sad he was now, at present

The situation cannot be solved, so he still has to face reality now. What he cares about now is what Yu Xiaotian will do next.

So after Chongzhen stabilized his mood, he no longer asked about these messy things, but instead asked Cao Huachun what Yu Xiaotian said after he met Yu Xiaotian this time.

Cao Huachun glanced at the other eunuchs in the imperial study. Chongzhen knew that Cao Huachun had some words that were not convenient for more people to know, so he waved his hand and drove out the other eunuchs in the imperial study and ordered them to stay outside the imperial study.

Obey the order, but don't go near the imperial study room.

After all the eunuchs had exited the imperial study, Cao Huachun knelt on the ground again and said to Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, before sending the old slave to the palace, Yu Xiaotian proposed to the old slave that he wanted to enter the palace to meet the saint...

…”

As soon as Chongzhen heard this, he stood up, and the dragon chair he sat on made a clanking sound, and almost fell to the ground when he stood up suddenly.

"What did you say? That Yu Thief actually dared to come to see me? Does he really want to lead his army into the palace?" Chongzhen shouted angrily.

"My lord, calm down! Please listen to this old slave, and I hope your lord will forgive me!" Cao Huachun kowtowed quickly and said.

Chongzhen was shocked and frightened. He waved his hands and said angrily: "Just say it! I will forgive your innocence!"

Cao Huachun knelt on the ground tremblingly and said to Chongzhen: "Your Majesty! No matter what, Yu Xiaotian has now controlled the capital. This is a fact! If he wants to lead his army to attack the palace, it can be said that it will be effortless.

, but after the old slave met Yu Thief this time, Yu Thief's attitude towards the Holy Lord was quite respectful, and he repeatedly promised the old slave that he would never harm the Holy Lord!

He repeatedly stated that he came to Beijing this time to support the Qing Dynasty, to bring clarity to the Ming Dynasty, and to revive the country for the Ming Dynasty. He did not intend to rebel and cause rebellion, and he had no intention of replacing him and claiming the throne as emperor!

But the matter has come to this point, and it is not an option to continue in such a stalemate. Yu Thief said to the old slave that some things are better to meet the Holy One in person and speak frankly! Otherwise, the Holy One cannot stay in the palace all the time. This Ming Dynasty will always need

The Holy One came to take charge!"

After hearing this, Chongzhen was filled with surprise and doubt. After a while, he asked Cao Huachun, "Does the thief really say that? Isn't he afraid that after entering the palace, I will order someone to capture him?"

Cao Huachun smiled bitterly...

A full day after Cao Huachun entered the palace, he came out of the palace again and came to Yu Xiaotian. He said to Xiaotian: "Commander, the Za family is fortunate to have lived up to its mission. Now the Holy One has agreed to summon you in the Wenhua Hall!

But the Holy One has spoken beforehand. The Marshal's servants are only allowed to enter the Wenhua Palace and are not allowed to enter other palaces without permission. Otherwise, the Holy One says that they would rather die than listen to your mercy!

Please be sure to keep your promise, Commander-in-Chief, and never harm Your Majesty, otherwise, even if I become a ghost, I will never forgive you!"

Yu Xiaotian chuckled and nodded and said: "Yu always does what he says! Please rest assured, Eunuch Cao! Yu leads his family and only enters the Wenhua Hall through the Donghua Gate, and no one will set foot in other places!

But I also hope that Your Majesty will not have other thoughts, otherwise things may become difficult to deal with in the end! If you disturb Your Majesty, then Yu will be guilty of a great crime!"

Cao Huachun nodded and said: "Our family has already made this clear to the Lord. We have already told the Lord everything that needs to be said. The Lord is also willing to meet you! The Lord also promised that he will never be detrimental to the commander-in-chief. I also hope that the commander-in-chief will be harmed.

Just respect yourself!"

Yu Xiaotian laughed and sent someone to send Cao Huachun back to the palace again.

April 20, the twelfth year of Chongzhen, this day can be regarded as an extremely important day in history. Yu Xiaotian, the head coach of Yu Jiajun, finally stepped into the stadium from Donghua Gate at the handover between Mao Shi and Chen Shi in the morning.

In the palace.

Yu Xiaotian also thoroughly entered the center of the political power of the Ming Dynasty, and met Zhu Youjian, the most prominent figure in the Ming Dynasty in this era, who was also Emperor Chongzhen, in the Wenhua Hall.

Before Yu Xiaotian entered the palace, Liu Wang led 200 guards to enter the Wenhua Palace, and set up sentries around the Wenhua Palace, and together with the royal guards and eunuchs in the palace, controlled the Wenhua Palace.

The two parties had made an agreement in advance before this, and after the guards entered the palace, they strictly followed the agreement and did not set foot anywhere else. This made Cao Huachun and Wang Chengen, who were in charge here, a little relieved.

As soon as the time came, Yu Xiaotian entered the Donghua Gate and was led by Cao Huachun into the Wenhua Hall. However, Chongzhen did not arrive at the Wenhua Hall in advance. There were only Liu Wang, a few guards and others in the hall.

There are more than a dozen fierce-looking palace guard warriors.

These palace guard warriors are all Jinyiwei who belong to the Jinyiwei system. They have always chosen people who are loyal to the royal family. This time Yu Xiaotian led troops to attack the capital and surrounded the palace. There is no doubt that in the eyes of these people, Yu Xiaotian is a

The traitor has now walked into the palace in a big way. How can these royal guards not be angry?

Each of these Jin Yiwei were wearing chainmail, and at their waists were wearing standard Xiuchun knives specially designed for Jin Yiwei. Their helmets and armor also looked majestic. When they saw Yu Xiaotian, they all glared at Yu Xiaotian and wanted to take a bite.

Yu Xiaotian swallowed it.

But next to them, there were Yu Xiaotian's guards, and the emperor had decreed that they were not allowed to do anything without permission, so these guards in imperial robes could only stare and enjoy their time.

Yu Xiaotian can be said to have turned a blind eye to these Jin Yiwei. He is now a master himself. Whether it is fighting in front of the battle or close combat, he has learned the most practical martial arts. Although he has not personally carried a sword to kill people in battle for many years.

, but this skill has not been lost, and I still practice diligently every day.

In novels or movies, the imperial guards of the Ming Dynasty are boasted about how awesome they are and how they are as good as walking on the ground. In fact, it is all false. At best, these imperial guards of the Ming Dynasty are relatively good-looking.

He is just taller and stronger, and looks better. In fact, very few of these people have the opportunity to fight with others. They are just facades.

According to Yu Xiaotian's understanding of these palace guards, these people had a habit of eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling when they were free, but in fact they were all embroidered pillows, which were used by the emperor for show.

Don't say that this group of people have no ability, even if they have some real ability, but in front of these guards of Yu Xiaotian, it is all for nothing. Even Yu Xiaotian himself has the confidence to take down a few of them without any trace.

question.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian was not nervous at all about these imperial guards of the Ming Dynasty and completely ignored their existence. Seeing that Chongzhen was not in the Wenhua Hall, Yu Xiaotian smiled secretly. At this time, Chongzhen was still putting on airs.

I guess he was more anxious to see me than anyone else at the moment. He just felt that as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, waiting for a traitor here would be a bit cheap, so he deliberately held back and refused to come out.

So Yu Xiaotian was not in a hurry, and started to look at the environment in the Wenhua Hall with his hands behind his back. The current Wenhua Hall was built in the early Ming Dynasty. Its shape is basically similar to the Wenhua Hall that was preserved in later generations. The carved beams and painted buildings are quite similar.

It is beautiful, and the items placed in the palace are also very exquisite. If each of them is passed down to future generations, it is estimated that it will be a national treasure-level cultural relic. However, in this era, even if it is exquisite and precious, it is far less precious than later generations.

Yu Xiaotian even saw the specialty glassware of his Sea Wolf Group in the corner of the Wenhua Hall. It was a huge vase made of blown glass, with interior paintings on it. The flowers, birds, insects, and fish were quite exquisite. He still remembered this thing.

He had seen it with his own eyes. It should have been sent to the capital as a tribute in the fifth year of Chongzhen. He did not expect to see this thing in the Wenhua Hall today, so he strolled up to the glass vase and observed it carefully.

, seems quite leisurely.

Just as Yu Xiaotian was wandering around the Wenhua Hall curiously, looking at the various utensils placed there, a eunuch screamed from behind the hall: "The Holy One has arrived!"

The eunuchs and palace guards in the palace just saw Yu Xiaotian being so unruly, walking around in the palace, looking here and touching from time to time, and they were all very angry, but they did not dare to scold them.

He could only glare at his behavior. When he heard the eunuch shouting that the emperor was coming, everyone quickly knelt down to welcome Chongzhen's arrival.

In fact, usually these palace-protecting warriors and eunuchs do not need to kneel to greet the emperor when he comes, but today's situation is a bit special. These people feel aggrieved. Seeing Yu Xiaotian being so disrespectful to the emperor and the palace, they deliberately show off.

Kneel down to welcome the holy driver.

When Yu Xiaotian heard that Chongzhen was coming, he also walked back to the middle of the hall, waved his hand and asked Liu Wang and other guards to kneel down to welcome the Holy Emperor. Even he himself was full of slander, secretly cursing and kneeling on the ground, thinking

I kneel down now. Sooner or later, you will pay the Zhu family back to me. Now you can just think of it as condescension.
