"Okay, okay, this is great!"
Although Emperor Kangxi was frightened, his face was not showing at all... and he was still quickly calculating the strength comparison between the two sides, no, the three aspects.
Kong Shenggong had 60,000 Luyong in Beijing!
Sixty thousand!
What on earth did he want to do by bringing so many people here? Could it be that the Holy Duke is too young?
In the past, the Holy Duke was a puppet in Kangxi's hands, but now... Kang Mazi only had nine thousand defeated soldiers on hand, and Wang Fuchen outside the city still had thousands of exhausted soldiers.
In addition, there are many descendants of the Old Eight Banners and the New Eight Banners who have taken refuge in Beijing, and perhaps some people can be gathered together... But no matter how they gather together, Kangxi feels that it will be difficult for his side (including Wang Fuchen's people) to gather together. Total 30,000, only more than half of Shenggong's Lu Yong.
However, the Ming army outside the city was more numerous, about one hundred thousand... and the combat effectiveness of the Ming army was not comparable to that of today's Eight Banners New Army and Lu Yong.
With these 100,000 Ming troops here, these Lu Yongs should not dare to make mistakes.
But this city of Beijing... we can’t have it anymore!
However, family members of the new and old Eight Banners who can be taken away in and around Beijing must be taken away as much as possible!
In addition, the money of the craftsmen in Beijing and those royal profiteers in the outer city of Beijing had to be taken away...
If all these people and money can follow him, then Kangxi can be a good Emperor Shun of the Qing Dynasty - even if he is Emperor Shun of the Qing Dynasty, he must be a good Emperor Shun of the Qing Dynasty.
But we can't be like Emperor Yuan Shun, who ran away with only a small number of officials, soldiers, and concubines. When we arrived on the grassland, we had nothing, and we couldn't survive at all.
But are those people in Beijing willing to follow happily?
Is Duke Kong Sheng willing to follow?
Will those traitorous royal ministers be willing to hand over the money?
Kangxi knew that he had been unlucky recently, and the more he got around, the more he looked like Ming Chongzhen... In the end, he didn't even think about running away, and the people under him even managed to get him to Jingshan and hang him on a crooked neck tree!
When he thought of the Crooked Neck Tree, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
No, I have to ask the people below to persuade me to escape!
But what to do?
How about some pretense?
"Brother Shenggong," Kangxi thought of this and had no choice but to hold Kong Shenggong's hand, "It's rare for you to come to Beijing, so go and sit at home!"
Prince Gong, and all of you ministers, please come together! "
As he spoke, Kangxi couldn't help but get on his horse with Kong Shenggong and Prince Gong Chang Ning, and then led a group of courtiers who came to greet him and headed for the Forbidden City together.
Kangxi has not returned to Beijing for a while - there are eight major alleys in Beijing!
But if I leave again this time, I probably won’t be able to come back in this life.
Therefore, Kangxi planned to take this opportunity to take a closer look at his own city of Beijing. .
He rode a horse along the long street from Yongding Gate to Zhengyang Gate, watching all the way. There were many idle people on both sides of the long street, all kneeling to welcome Emperor Kangxi.
Most of them are women and children. They are decently dressed and should not be civilians.
Kangxi asked: "Prince Gong, are they all bannermen who ran into the city to take refuge?"
"Your Majesty, your Majesty." Chang Ning replied, "There is a chaos of war outside the city of Beijing now. The rebel soldiers have arrived in the Xiangshan and Sanhe areas. Many bannermen's villages have been destroyed and many people have died. Therefore, I let the city go. Foreign bannermen and banner slaves all sought refuge in the city as much as possible."
"Okay, you did a good job." Kangxi thought to himself, "Everyone has entered the city, it's easy to pull them away."
At this time, Kangxi and his party passed by the large fence outside Zhengyang Gate - Bada Hutong was nearby.
Thinking of "the shame of the eight alleys", Kangxi lost his voice and just rode on. After a while, he entered the Qingmen Gate where the house number had not been retrieved and a new one had not been made.
After entering the Daqing Gate, Kangxi continued to walk inward, passing the Thousand Steps Corridor, but did not enter the Meridian Gate, but exited the Zuoque Gate.
Chang Ning looked at the alley, so he asked: "Brother, don't you go into the palace? Where are you going? The Empress Dowager is still waiting for you."
Emperor Kangxi smiled bitterly, looked back at Kong Shenggong and some other officials, and then deliberately raised his voice and said: "I want to go to Jingshan to have a look!"
"Brother Emperor, where do you think we should go?"
"Go to Jingshan!" Kangxi said loudly, "I am about to go to Jingshan where Emperor Chongzhen died to have a look."
He also deliberately mentioned the death of Chongzhen. Including Chang Ning, everyone below was a little frightened when they heard this.
They were not worried that Kangxi would eventually hang up the crooked neck tree in Jingshan, but they thought of "torture".
The Ming army that is now approaching Beijing and these officials of the Qing Dynasty are mortal enemies!
However, Chang Ning felt happy.
If his brother Kangxi died for his country like Chongzhen...then who should be the emperor of the Qing Dynasty?
Even if he is a Shun Emperor, he is still an emperor!
Of course, you have to hide this thought well and don't let your brother see it.
Just as he was thinking this, Kong Shenggong, the godbrother of Emperor Kangxi, said in a very ignorant manner: "Brother Emperor, in fact, Chongzhen should not have died for his country... His sons are still young, and none of them is older. A responsible brother will clean up his mess for him.”
What does this mean?
Chang Ning's heart beat faster after hearing Kong Shenggong's words.
Kangxi turned his head, glanced at Chang Ning with evil intentions, and nodded: "Brother Shenggong is right... Chang Ning, what do you think?"
"Minion, minion..." Chang Ning was anxious and beads of sweat broke out on his forehead. After holding it in for a long time, he finally managed to say, "Brother, the spirit of the Ming Dynasty has been exhausted. It will be the same no matter who replaces it. That mess will not be the same." The law is settled."
"What about Zhu Heji?" Kangxi asked, "Chang Ning, how do you think you compare to Zhu Heji?"
"This..." Chang Ning was speechless. He thought to himself: "What's wrong with my brother? Why do you always have trouble with me? You don't doubt me, do you? I have never thought about plotting to usurp the throne. At most, I have thought about being a An imperial uncle and a regent. Even this small goal was not achieved in the end."
When Kangxi saw that his brother was speechless, he no longer made it difficult for him - Kangxi was actually beating Chang Ning to force him to be consistent with himself.
The three brothers (including Kong Shenggong) were speechless all the way, and soon climbed up Jingshan Mountain to the north of the Forbidden City.
Standing under the famous crooked neck tree on Jingshan Mountain. Kangxi climbed high and looked into the distance, overlooking the city of Beijing under the setting sun.
Kong Shenggong also had a group of ministers from the Qing Dynasty. Seeing this scene, I felt a little cold in my heart.
Does this emperor really want the emperor to guard the country and the king to die?
But Chang Ning is a little hot-headed... Is there really a chance?
…
"What? Kangxi went to Jingshan? Hanging, hanging?"
In Tongzhou City east of Beijing, Wang Fuchen, who had just led his troops to retreat here, suddenly heard incredible news from Liu Xuanchu.
"No, he's not at the end of his rope yet." Liu Xuanchu took another sip of tea. He had just returned from Beijing. Although he didn't follow him to Jingshan, the news was correct.
"Isn't it soon?" Wang Fuchen thought for a moment, his eyes flashing with fire, "Commander Liu, Beijing is an unparalleled achievement... When will we take action?"
Entering Beijing is a great achievement that can lead to the title of Duke! ? Of course Wang Fuchen was jealous, even if he could only get a piece of the pie, it would be good.
"Now is not the time," Liu Xuanchu waved his hand and said with a smile, "We can't enter Beijing yet. Where can we have such an opportunity?"
The person who prevented Wang Fuchen and the others from entering the city was actually Bumu Butai. This old lady was very good at judging people, and she always felt that something was wrong with Wang Fuchen. So he asked his grandson Chang Ning to keep him out of Beijing.
But now things have changed in Beijing!
"Military advisor, Kangxi is back, then I will have a chance to enter the city!" Wang Fuchen said with a smile, "I can't deceive that cunning old lady, how can I still deceive Kangxi?"
"That's right!" Liu Xuanchu said with a smile, "The general has deceived Kangxi for a while... General, tell me, is it possible that Kangxi will hang up?"
