After Li Zicheng occupied the southern city of Jingshi, he did not launch a new offensive.The inner city was dead silent, while the southern city was filled with fires and the barking of dogs, occasionally accompanied by the cries and shouts of men and the sound of muskets until dawn.At midnight, a man dressed as a eunuch shouted to the city by the moat outside the Desheng Gate: "I am Du Xun, the supervisor of Xuanfu, and I want to enter the city to see His Majesty the Emperor by the order of His Majesty Dashun."
Who is on duty in the city, open the city quickly, don't miss the big thing" Behind him, a black-clothed and black-armed, mighty and tall Dashun military attache stood there, and it was Wang Shuo.According to the meaning of Li Zicheng's words, Li Yan drafted the terms of the negotiation, and after Li Zicheng saw it, it was stamped with the seal of Emperor Dashun, and after Du Xun came from Xuanfu, he ordered him to enter the city and read it to Emperor Chongzhen.Du Xun was afraid of death and did not dare to enter the city to see Chongzhen.After he surrendered, Chongzhen did not know about it, and drafted an edict to commend him, saying that he was "scolded for the martyrdom of the thief and given to the shrine." ”Now that he is alive and appears in front of Chongzhen, Chongzhen has to kill him alive, Wang Shuo was arranged by Li Yan as his deputy envoy, nominally to supervise his mission, but in fact to do his own big things.Li Yan has arranged everything.Wang Shuo met with Du Xun when he met Chongzhen, and tried to persuade Chongzhen to escape with him.As long as Chongzhen was moved, Wang Shuo killed Du Xun, took Chongzhen, and hid in a relative's house in the front door to take the lamp in Hulianqi.This relative and Hu Lianqi are close friends, when he set off from Lanzhou, Hu Lianqi wrote a letter, originally planning to let Wang Shuo live in this relative after entering Beijing.Wang Shuo persuaded Chongzhen to kill Du Xun, and after the appointed time, Du Xun did not come back to hand over the order, and the Shun army would inevitably attack the city.After the city was broken, Li Yan would arrange for the pro-army to go to the lantern alley to find Wang Shuo, and then Wang Shuo and Chongzhen changed into pro-army clothes, took advantage of the chaos to go out of the city, joined Wang Shuo's guards, played Li Yan's banner, held Li Yan's documents, passed through Henan and Shaanxi, and returned to Lanzhou.It stands to reason that Chongzhen will never agree to the terms of peace proposed by Li Zicheng, and after refusing, the Dashun army will inevitably attack the city.But if Chongzhen agreed to negotiate peace, then Wang Shuo would not reveal his identity and persuade Chongzhen to leave the capital.As for the future, how to develop in the future, we can only leave it to fate and make another plan.In Li Yan's tent, Du Xun heard that he was asked to see Chongzhen, and his legs trembled with fright.Li Yan comforted him and said, "Du Jianjun doesn't have to be nervous.Historically, the two countries have fought each other, and they have not been killed.His Majesty has promised that if Chongzhen dares to kill you regardless of etiquette, His Majesty will kill the King of Qin and the King of Jin in retaliation.These two people are Chongzhen elders, and he doesn't dare to ignore them.Du Jianjun went with confidence. ”Du Xun still didn't want to go, and still looked for all kinds of excuses to shirk.Wang Shuo couldn't stand it on the side, and shouted: "Go, you still have a chance to live; If you don't go, I'll kill you now" said "Cang Chang" pulled out the short sword under his ribs and pressed it against his neck, almost scaring the prison lord into peeing his pants.This kind of cowardly person who is afraid of death, you can't reason with him, and directly threatening his life is the most effective.Sure enough, Du Xun frightened Wang Shuo like a fierce god, and he didn't dare to say no.Wang Shuo had also arranged for Shi Dazhu and Lu Xiaoyu to escort Chongzhen back to Lanzhou, while he would return after leaving the city with Chongzhen and go with Li Yan.Although he hinted many times that Li Yan was in danger of killing, Li Yan was also prepared and promised not to take the risk of arousing the suspicion of King Chuang, he still did not worry about leaving Li Yan here alone.In case something happens to Li Yan, he has a flower bullet and a revolver, and then with his undue bravery, it should be no problem to protect Li Yan from the siege of the army.Du Xun shouted under the Desheng Gate for a long time, and after more than an hour, the city put down a hanging basket and pulled Du Xun and Wang Shuo up to the city.Coming to the city, whether he knows him or not, this kid licks his face when he sees everyone, laughs and greets him.But none of the Ming troops guarding Deshengmen dared to talk to Du Xun, and Wang Shuo was even more ignored.Du Xun is now in the eyes of the Ming army, just a piece of stinking, whoever sticks to it is unlucky.Chongzhen is suspicious by nature, if anyone says something to Du Xun at this time, in case he is reported to Chongzhen by others, then he will be a traitor like Du Xun.Under the guidance of a small eunuch sent by the palace, the two of them got off the Yongdao of Desheng Gate, got into a light-gray canopy-roofed carriage waiting under the city, and went south all the way.Du Xun sat in the carriage, his face was like ashes, and his head was sweating vigorously.Wang Shuo seemed at ease, and lifted the curtain on the carriage shed to watch the scene outside.The carriage followed the loess-paved avenue all the way south, with low houses and narrow alleys along the way.There were few pedestrians on the road, but there was no panic.It is said that when the Japanese entered the city in 37 years, the people of Beijing were also like this, and they were not afraid at all, and some families also put incense cases in front of the door and hung plaster flags to express their welcome and their willingness to be obedient to the Japanese Empire.It seems that this Jingshi is used to being invaded by foreign tribes, and the people are accustomed to it, but they are not very afraid of this chaos.Wait for Lao Tzu to call one day, let this place become the center of Greater China, and no one of the aliens will be allowed to enter here arrogantly and happily, Du Xun interrupted him: "What are you happy about, you don't know what kind of car this is, this is the car that pulls the dead out of the palace Today, you and I have entered this Forbidden City, and we will never want to come out alive" said and sobbed alone.Wang Shuo is accustomed to life and death, and his personality has become resolute and strong, who cares what is not pulling a dead man's car, his heart says that it is useless for you to cry, in the eyes of Lao Tzu, you are already a dead person.Annoyed by the fact that he cried, Wang Shuo couldn't help but be furious, and scolded loudly: "What are you so sad to look at your little bit of interest, why did Chongzhen let you go to Shouxuan Mansion like a coward to Shouxuan Mansion What a bastard has come home" In modern times, he had spent a lot of time in Beijing when he was young, and now he suddenly changed his Mandarin with Beijing flavor to swear, which scared Du Xun not to cry.Wang Shuo has always spoken Shaanxi dialect, and suddenly the authentic Beijing official dialect appeared, Du Xun is not afraid of it.watched Wang Shuo for a long time, and suddenly wanted to run out of the car, but was dragged by Wang Shuo.Du Xun shouted: "Ghosts, ghosts, ghosts possessed" In the palace of the Ming Dynasty, the palace maids and eunuchs were not human beings at all in the eyes of the emperor, and they could be executed at any time for no reason, depending on their mood.When Ming Yingzong regained the throne, he executed more than 3,000 palace maids who served his nephew at one time, which shows his cruelty.Looking through the entire court history of the Ming Dynasty, it is a history of blood and tears of eunuchs and palace maids, and every day, there will be innocent eunuchs and palace maids who die tragically by car from the Forbidden City, abandoned in the wilderness, and let wild dogs gnaw on them.The caravan that Wang Shuo and Du Xun were sitting in was the same one used to pull the palace maids and eunuchs from the palace in the past.It was probably because the people in the palace hated Du Xun for surrendering to Li Zicheng that they used this car to carry him.Du Xun has been in the palace for a long time, and it is estimated that he has done a lot of bad things, how could he not recognize this car Seeing that Wang Shuo suddenly changed to Beijing official dialect, he thought that the ghost in the car that pulled the dead man got on Wang Shuo's body and came to take revenge on him, how could he not be afraid of being dragged by Wang Shuo, and he was even more frightened and howled loudly
