Xia Hua didn't know that his motorcade had just left Donghua Gate.
Chuang King Li Zicheng entered the Wuying Hall surrounded by generals of the Shun Army, Zhang Jinyan, Minister of War of the Ming Dynasty, and Prince Dehua of Dongchangchang.
An hour ago, Chengguo Gong Zhu Chunchen, who had surrendered the thieves early, received a report from the soldiers that a group of troops with unknown origins and advanced firearms broke into the city from Qihua Gate and occupied the city gate.
Zhu Chunchen was shocked when he heard this.
He once suspected that one of King Qin's elite Ming army troops was coming forward, and regretted that he surrendered the thieves too early.
However, after a long time, there was no news of the large Ming army entering the city and the Chuangshun army being repulsed.
He became suspicious again and quickly sent his soldiers to Qihua Gate to inquire.
The soldiers came back and reported that only a hundred or so enemy troops were guarding Qihua Gate.
So Zhu Chunchen personally led more than a thousand troops from Chengguo Palace to try to recapture Qihua Gate.
The result, of course, was that he lost his troops and generals.
His soldiers were still hundreds of steps away from the city gate when a burst of gunshots with echoes and trembling sounds was heard.
Dozens of them fell to the ground in confusion, without even seeing a single enemy soldier clearly until they died.
Including Zhu Chunchen himself, the remaining soldiers dared to move forward after seeing this scene.
They all thought they had hit a ghost in broad daylight, and scattered and fled backwards.
Only dozens of corpses were left scattered on the street leading to Qihua Gate.
Outside Qihua Gate, Li Yan, the commander of the Shunjun East Route Army who was rushing here, also received the news and accelerated his advance in order to recapture Qihua Gate.
His former army also met the same fate as Zhu Chunchen in the city.
After losing more than a hundred soldiers, Li Yan knew that the opponent's firearms were powerful and did not dare to continue the attack.
So, he stationed the front army a thousand steps away from Qihua Gate, formed a military formation, and waited for the rear army of the Chinese army to come and assemble.
He also ordered his troops to quickly mobilize the artillery team from the south.
But soon, Xia Hua's chariots sped out one after another from Qihua Gate.
Li Yan once again urged the cavalry to come forward and tried to intercept them, but they were repelled by random gunfire.
In a short time, more than a hundred riders and nearly ten generals were shot dead on the spot.
The elite soldiers and generals under him were all lost and frightened.
How could they dare to step forward and watch Xia Hua's motorcade drive away?
The motorcade was traveling in the wilderness between Beijing and Tianjin.
At this time, the entire Beijing-Tianjin area had been plundered and plundered by rogue bandits several times, and had long been deserted.
Zhu Youjian looked out of the narrow car window at the grassy fields outside, and felt relieved knowing that he had left Beijing.
Suddenly, he shouted loudly again: "Oh, I forgot something important.
Prince, there are two princes still in the city."
Xia Hua, who was in the same car, said without raising his eyelids: "We can't turn around and go back to the city now, it's too late.
However, your Majesty, don't worry, the intruders won't do anything to them for the time being."
The day before, Zhu Youjian had sent the prince Zhu Cihong and the other two princes to the princes and ministers' homes to hide.
In fact, it was meaningless for him to do so.
Now he began to feel annoyed that he should keep these sons in the palace.
"Where are we going?
To Nanjing in the south of the Yangtze River?"
Zhu Youjian asked.
Having just escaped from danger, he naturally thought of going to Nanjing, another capital of the Ming Dynasty.
"It's not to Nanjing, it's to Tianjin."
Xia Hua replied coldly.
"Why don't you go to Nanjing?
Nanjing is one of the capitals of the Ming Dynasty.
Only when we go there can we make a comeback.
Also, I still have hundreds of thousands of troops in Jiangnan."

Zhu Youjian said eagerly.
Xia Hua smiled teasingly and said, "Yes, why don't you go to Nanjing?
Your Majesty, why don't you go to Nanjing before you break into the city and besiege it?"
Zhu Youjian was stunned after hearing this, and then his face became angry, but he was not angry at Xia Hua.
After a few breaths of silence, he finally couldn't hold it in any longer and cursed: "It's all those mediocre ministers who have misled me and the country.
When the country is stabilized in the future, I will punish them severely."
Xia Hua was lying on the car seat opposite Zhu Youjian, looking at Zhu Youjian disapprovingly and said: "Those people are not mediocre people.
It's not that they don't know that they should move south, but they just make plans for their own interests.
However, their vision It's too shallow, so the calculation is wrong.
You don't have to do anything, they will die in an ugly way soon."
Zhu Youjian wanted to talk more with Xia Hua, but he saw him closing his eyes to rest and taking a nap.
Drowsiness is contagious.
Zhu Youjian looked at the scenery outside the window and his eyelids began to tremble.
A burst of noise woke Zhu Youjian up again.
Only then did he realize that it was completely dark.
The soldiers lit up piles of bonfires and began to cook meals.
The figure in front turned around and met him face to face.
It was Xia Hua.
Xia Hua explained before he could speak: "Your Majesty, the soldiers and horses have been running around for days, so they need to rest.
We can't continue our journey until dawn tomorrow.
We should be able to reach Tianjin Youwei in the evening."
Zhu Youjian was about to open his mouth to ask Xia Hua something, but saw the other party turned around and went to do other things.
Helpless, he had no choice but to disperse by himself in the camp surrounded by chariots.
Soon, he discovered his wife Queen Zhou, Princess Zhaoren, and his personal eunuch Wang Chengen.
"Old slave, see you, Your Majesty."
Wang Chengen spoke first and bowed down.
Then Queen Zhou also bowed and said: "I, my concubine, see you, Your Majesty."
Then there were no more words.
Princess Zhaoren hid behind Queen Zhou, holding her mother's skirt tightly with her little hands.
"No courtesy."
After Zhu Youjian said this, he held Queen Zhou's hand with guilt, but it felt extremely cold.
Then he held Princess Zhaoren in his arms.
Zhaoren began to cry, and Queen Zhou said softly: "Your Majesty, let me do it."
She took Xiao Zhaoren from Zhu Youjian.
The couple talked for a while, and then Zhu Youjian learned that Xia Hua was once a captain of the Jinyi Guards Division.
Zhu Youjian frowned and said to himself: "It's strange, how can a small captain get the money to buy a servant, and he is still such an elite servant?"
Suddenly, he thought of something again and asked: "娖儿Is she still in a coma?"
Queen Zhou nodded and pointed to a carriage next to her.
Zhu Youjian poked his head in and saw Zhu Ainao, whose face and shoulders were bandaged with thick cloth.
Suddenly he thought of a terrible thing.
Apart from his wife and daughter, there seemed to be no women in this team, so who was going to bandage his daughter's wounds?
"Who touched my daughter's body?
This will stain her innocence.
My daughter is a princess.
How will my daughter get married from now on?"

Zhu Youjian suddenly burst into tears.
Wang Chengen, who was next to him, also yelled: "You mountain villagers, what do you think you are good at?
Men and women are in defense, men and women are in defense, do you understand?"
Only Queen Zhou pulled Zhu Youjian's sleeves and motioned for him to quiet down.
Xia Hua came over and said, "Everyone is going to die, so why should men and women be on guard?
I was the one who dealt with the injury of the concubine.
Her body was touched by me.
What's wrong?"
Then he said to the stunned Zhu Youjian: "Before, didn't I say that there are three conditions?
One of them is to ask Your Majesty to betroth my concubine to me
