Three days later, Gao Jie announced that his entire army was loyal to the new emperor in Nanjing. When the time came, the Jinyi New Army and the new army in Nanjing arrived outside Gao Jie's camp. Gao Jie personally led 30,000 people out of the camp and surrendered to the new army in Nanjing. Li Chengdong, who came from Xuzhou, also obeyed Gao Jie's military orders and led 20,000 people to announce his allegiance to the new emperor in Nanjing.

In a purple flying fish suit and a wingless black hat, Zhao Peng held Zhu Cilang's imperial edict in his hand, and surrounded by a group of Jinyiwei, walked towards Gao Jie. Behind him, Lu Jiude, who was specially rushing from Fengyang, held the abdication edict of King Fu's abdication in his hand, followed closely.

Although Lu Jiude supported King Fu ascend the throne, he also knew that the situation was hopeless and the orthodox crown prince ascended the throne was irreversible. So he chose to be loyal to the new emperor, Emperor Shaowu, and still stationed in Fengyang. At the same time, Lu Jiude also brought Gao Qiqian, who was also in Fengyang.

Walking to Gao Jie, Zhao Peng turned his head and gave Lu Jiude a wink. Lu Jiude nodded understandingly, then opened his sharp voice and said loudly: "The edict of King Xuanfu abdication!"

Gao Jie, Li Chengdong and others set up incense tables, and then everyone knelt down one after another.

Lu Jiude opened the imperial edict and recited it loudly: "In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor ordered that the orthodox crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Cilang, was the first crown prince of Chongzhen. Now the crown prince has escaped from the tiger's mouth and has arrived in Nanjing. I am not sure that I will return to the crown prince to the throne..."

Hearing that Lu Jiude had finished promulgating King Fu's abdication, Zhao Peng shouted: "The new emperor's imperial edict has arrived! Xingpingbo and others received the edict!"

As he said that, he opened the imperial edict, Zhao Peng read out the imperial edict loudly: "In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor's edict said that Liu Liangzuo, the former Guangchang Bo, and Gao Jie, supported King Fu to plot against rebellion, and committed great crimes. Now Liu Liangzuo has been executed, and he should be killed. Nine clans should be destroyed! Although Gao Jie, Xingping Bo, was extremely evil, he would be punished. He would be punished without a crime when he was lost. He would be punished for Xingping Bo without guilt! He is still Xingping Bo of the Ming Dynasty! The generals under Xingping Bo remained unchanged... Gao Jie's troops were low in combat and might not be able to compete with the bandits and Jiannu. He needed to strengthen training, and the training matter was handed over to the Zhongyong Bo..."

The imperial edict that Zhao Peng read was a newly invited imperial edict that he sent to Nanjing. Since Gao Jie had announced his surrender, the imperial edict for rebellion was not taken out and read out, but the new imperial edict was read out.

Gao Jie and others knelt on the ground and shouted: "I will obey the order! Thank you for not killing your Majesty! Long live my emperor!"

According to the requirements of the imperial edict, Gao Jie still stayed in Yangzhou as his Xingping Bo, but his army needed to take turns to Nanjing for half a year for training. Each batch of 25,000 people, the first batch went to Nanjing for training for half a year, and then returned to Nanjing for half a year. The second batch would go to Nanjing for training for half a year. The first batch of people to go to Nanjing for training was Li Chengdong's 20,000 people, and then allocated 5,000 people from Gao Jie's headquarters to follow Li Chengdong to Nanjing.

Li Chengdong brought 25,000 people and followed Zhao Peng's men on a boat to Nanjing. The generals who went with Li Chengdong were Gao Yuanzhao, Hu Maozhen, Hao Shangjiu and other generals. Gao Jinku did not go with him. He found a reason to shirk the next group and said that the next group would go. In fact, Gao Jinku had his own little plan in his mind. Soon after, Gao Jinku fled Gao Jie's military camp and escaped the Yellow River to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. That was a later story.

"Tiger, I feel very relieved when I see you being lost and being loyal to the new emperor." Zhao Peng said to Li Chengdong with a gratitude on his face.

Li Chengdong bowed respectfully to Zhao Peng: "Thank you, Bo Ye! The last general will be loyal to the new emperor with all his might!"

After arriving in Nanjing, Zhao Peng ordered his new Nanjing army to camp with the newly surrendered 25,000 Gaojie Army and build barracks outside Nanjing city. Since 25,000 people came and the required barracks occupied a large area, these soldiers were scattered into five barracks, each barracks of 5,000 stationed in Yanziji, at the foot of Zhongshan, Tangshan, Xiaomaoshan, General Mountain and other places. The barracks were placed in the valley between hills, and would not occupy valuable arable land, and would not disturb the people.

These five barracks were not built according to the temporary barracks for marching and fighting, but were built according to the permanent barrack specifications. The soldiers and auxiliary soldiers dug the foundation, logged wood and quarried, fired bricks, dug out the foundation of the barracks according to the design drawings drawn by Zhao Peng, and then built houses on the foundation. The newly built barracks were named Nanjing Teaching Field, which were Nanjing Teaching Field One, Two, Three, Four and Five.

The next morning, when the soldiers set up camp, Zhao Peng personally took Li Chengdong, Gao Yuanzhao, Hu Maozhen, Hao Shangjiu and other generals to Nanjing City and entered the palace to meet the saint.

Zhao Peng was wearing a purple flying fish suit and a wingless black gauze hat. A group of generals wore big red official robes with different patches in front of him. Under the guidance of the Jinyiwei, he walked into the Forbidden City.

When he walked to the gate of Fengtian Palace, Zhao Peng took the lead in kneeling down and bowing to the hall: "Long live my emperor!"

The generals also knelt down one after another and bowed to the hall: "Long live my emperor!"

"Dear friends, please calm down!" Emperor Shaowu's voice came from it.

"Please come to the hall to face the saint!" The eunuch outside the door shouted loudly with a sharp voice.

Zhao Peng led the generals into the hall and knelt down in the hall. Hao Shangjiu was also among them and knelt down with everyone. After everyone bowed three times and kowtowed nine times, Zhu Cixuan said, "My dear friends, please calm down!"

Hao Shangjiu stood up and secretly glanced at Zhu Cilang on the dragon throne from the corner of his eyes. He found that the young emperor sitting on the dragon throne seemed very familiar, but he couldn't remember when he had seen the emperor. Curiosity drove him to want to take a few more glances, but he was afraid of losing etiquette, so he didn't dare to look up and look more, but just stood behind Hu Maozhen with his hands hanging down.

Zhu Cixuan said something unnutritious and polite, then looked at Zhao Peng and said, "Brother Zhongyong, I officially ascended the throne and became emperor five days ago. You have not been able to catch up with the celebration banquet. Today I will invite you all. Dear generals, today is the day of the foundation laying of the Nanjing Teaching Site and a happy day. I will invite you all today!"

"Thank you Your Majesty!" Zhao Peng led everyone to thank him.

Then Zhu Cixuan left the dragon throne and left the hall first. After the emperor left, a eunuch led everyone out of the hall, passed by the Fengtian Hall, and entered the imperial garden in the harem. A large table of wine and food had already been set up in the imperial garden, and the generals took their seats under the eunuchs. Seeing this scene, Li Chengdong and other generals were moved: Your Majesty treat us as their own people! When King Fu was in power, he did not give us such treatment. King Fu invited the generals to the Fengtian Hall. King Fu himself sat on the main table in the middle. Each general had a small table in front of each general, and a good meal in front of each person. Such a banquet seemed a lot different. But today, it was like the usual family banquet, and the emperor was holding a table with him and other vulgar martial artists! This was a great honor for the future of the pig.

After a while, Zhu Cixuan, who had changed into a blue dragon cannon, walked out and sat down on the main seat of the wine table.

At this time, Hao Shangjiu looked at the emperor before his eyes carefully who was the emperor before the New Year. He suddenly remembered that when he was in Xuzhou, a young little Jinyiwei had dinner with him at the same table. He even put his hand on the shoulder of the little Jinyiwei, but he didn't expect that the inconspicuous little Jinyiwei he saw that day was actually just today!

Hao Shangjiu was scared and sweated in a cold sweat. He quickly left the stool and knelt in front of Zhu Cixuan with a "thump": "Your Majesty, I don't know that it was Your Majesty that day. I offended Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty forgives the crime!"

In fact, Zhu Ciyang didn't care about this matter at first. Since the capital city was broken and he fell into Liu Zongmin's hands, he lived with the same group of vulgar traitors every day. After being rescued, he also lived in the Jinyi Guard's barracks every day, and he had long been used to it. That day, Hao Shangjiu had long put the matter of holding his arms around him at the dinner table. When he saw Hao Shangjiu suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, he remembered who the guy in front of him was, the guy sitting next to him that day in Xuzhou.
