It is not slander for Emperor Chongzhen to be suspicious and impetuous, and he is mean and ruthless.

During the Chongzhen period, in just 10 or 20 years, the cabinet prime ministers changed one after another, very often, and many ministers were in his hands with miserable evenings.

He was said to be impatient, for example, Yuan Chonghuan shouted a slogan and was entrusted by him to use it after five years of pacifying Liao. He never carefully examined how capable this person was, nor did he think about whether his strategy was feasible.

I just thought about putting things in a short while, and nothing else seemed to matter.

As for suspicion, there is no need to say much. The change of prime ministers is so diligent, which means that none of these people have gained the trust of Chongzhen.

But in its essence, it is probably forced by the situation.

Emperor Tianqi died inexplicably, and the forces inside and outside the palace were entangled, and even the emperor was trembling. How could Emperor Chongzhen not be suspicious?

When he ascended the throne, he dealt with Wei Zhongxian. With the help of the civil service group, he defeated the Dongchang and Jinyiwei in one piece, cut off his own hands and feet, and dug up his eyes. He might have felt so happy at that time - Wei Zhongxian is a treacherous minister, who is a traitor, who is a disaster to the country and the people, and he is not willing to die. Jinyiwei in the Dongchang was his lackey, who harmed loyal and kind, and oppressed the people, and it was just right to cut it off with one piece.

But he was not foolish after all. When he sat in that seat, he gradually realized that the civil servant was actually his enemy, and would compete for his power and blind his audiovisuals. He would definitely recall it.

In this way, how could he believe these civil servants who cheated him?

In addition, internal and external troubles and national turmoil, countless troubles inside and outside are pressing on his heart. It is already amazing if he is not crazy.

To be honest, Emperor Chongzhen should be considered an extremely strong person.

Often, the last kings of the country who lost their country were mostly tragic characters. Why? Because they could not withstand the pressure of a country's overturn, they could only be regarded as turtles.

He wants to turn the tide. At the age of thirty, his temples are white, and you can imagine how much pressure he is under.

Wang Chengen watched Emperor Chongzhen grow up with his close companionship, and knew Chongzhen's character very well. He was stubborn and could not even pull back the nine cows once he made up his mind.

Although Wang Chengen felt that Sun Chuanting was "dead", giving him a posthumous title was nothing to do in terms of face and could also reflect the emperor's mind, but the emperor decided to do so, and he dared not say more.

Then the emperor continued, "Sun Chuanting was defeated, Kaifeng is in danger. What is Hou Xun doing now?"

Wang Chengen said: "When you come back to the emperor, Hou Xun is training troops in Hebei."

"Training troops?" The emperor looked angry again: "I teach him to supervise the seven towns of Baoding to suppress the thieves, so he will train troops in Hebei?"

Wang Cheng'en bowed his head and said nothing.

Emperor Chongzhen raised his hand and finally failed to finish the filming. He took a deep breath: "I urge you to send troops quickly."

He said: "The thieves were defeated in the battle and Chuanting, and Kaifeng has no barriers anymore. No matter what, we must protect Uncle Zhou. We will draw an order to order the general of Huguang Ying Yi to prepare his troops and lead him to Kaifeng to eliminate the thieves!"

"Yes, the emperor."

...

The thief was fierce and violent and had no bottom line, which made Emperor Chongzhen very angry. Whether it was the death of King Fu, the death of King Tang, or the excavation of the Fengyang ancestral tomb, all of them rubbed the dignity of the Ming Dynasty on the ground.

As an emperor, this is impossible to bear.

Therefore, he wanted to preserve King Zhou for the last bit of emperor's dignity.

If an emperor has no dignity, he cannot convince others. How can he govern the country? This is not a trivial matter, but a major matter that concerns the importance of the magical weapon.

I am the country. If I lose face, what qualifications do I have to be the patriarch of the Xia people? What qualifications do I have to be the emperor?

The emperor's ancestral tomb was dug up and the emperor's uncle and relatives were cooked. Is this still the emperor? Isn't it a joke?!

The Kaifeng war is serious. The emperor was so angry that he almost vomited blood, but the civil and military officials in the court were like a dream. It seemed that there was too much bad news over the years that he had become accustomed to it.

Except for those scholars and literati who criticized the emperor in brothel teahouses, wanted the emperor to do benevolent politics, and wanted the emperor to do whatever he wanted, it seemed that everything would be fine. Apart from this, there was no more trouble.

Kaifeng.

Li Chuang rested all night, buried the pot to make rice the next morning, squeezed out some of the tight grain. Forty thousand soldiers had enough food and drink, and then rushed to Kaifeng city.

The rain had stopped for a day, and there was still mud outside Kaifeng City. Li Chuang set out his formation, and more than twenty cannons of various colors aimed at the head of Kaifeng City, and waved his hand.

Then a man rode his horse out and came outside the land of Kaifeng City with an arrow. He shouted in a loud voice: "The Ming thief on the top of the city listened to: The King of Chuang Youyan, and ordered you to open the city and surrender within a moment. Otherwise, the whole family will not be left after the city is broken!"

On the top of the city, Gao Mingheng looked like iron, waved his hand, and a thunderbolt, and a cannon shot out from the fire, responding firmly.

Li Chuangheng was immediately surrounded by a group of thieves under the flag of the central army. He was not angry when he saw the response from the city. He beat Kaifeng three times, and was also shot blinded by someone under this city. He did not have too much expectations for Kaifeng whether Kaifeng would surrender.

It's just a routine thing, thinking it's intimidating and robbing people.

"Since last year, our veterans have been surrounded and opened several times, but they are not available. Our veterans are not having a good time now, and Kaifeng is even worse. This time, we are about to make a big splash, break the city of special wine, kill the special wine, and bring the special wine wife and daughter, so that our veterans can enjoy it with us."

Li Chuang raised his whip and pointed straight at the top of the city: "Come on, attack the city for our veteran!"

Siege is the most fancy battle. To break the city, one can only fight with people's lives. With Li Chuang's order, five thousand thieves pushed the shield cart and the protective cannon formation slowly approached the city wall.

The city head started first, and with the roar of artillery, the battle began.

At this time, Li Chuang said to Song Xiance: "Ying Yi's dog-entry army is fifty miles away. If the city cannot be broken within two hours, things will be difficult to handle. Go down and be prepared..."

Song Xiance understood it and turned around and sank into the central army.

By this time, Li Chuang already knew who the enemy behind him was. Ying Yi, the new general of Huguang, was this person!

It’s not his fault that he realized it later. It’s because the time is too short and the news has not spread yet.

Now that I know, there is no need to say anything about the hatred in my heart. However, resentment is even more fearful. Li Chuang has not been idle these days and has not done anything, so he also secretly sent people to sneak into Nanyang to inquire about the news. The fact that Ying Yi defeated the thief is widely circulated in Nanyang, and you will know everything as soon as you inquire.

It was last night.

The bravery of the overlord is beyond the reach of ten thousand men. With fewer people, the more they defeat, killing thieves is like killing chickens. All these things let Li Chuang know that the ten thousand enemies that he fears is Ying Yi!

The unknown is terrifying, but what you know may not necessarily make people even more terrifying. After the thief learned the news, his fear of Ying Yi became a little deeper.
