"Because I don't see the outcome of this battle."

"Because I don't want to see this city full of blood and flames."

"I don't want to... let more people die in my hands."

Zhou Jin took a deep breath, and every word he said was his true words from the bottom of his heart.

Looking at the desperate emperor in front of him, Zhou Jin couldn't help but think of the poems he wrote when he was ambitious.

So what if the Yanziji weighs a mound, and the Changhong makes a pole.The crescent moon in the sky is a fishing hook, how much is my country.

But now, everything has turned into ashes and disappeared.

He is very lonely, and there is no one around him to talk to, because he doesn't trust anyone.

Li Zicheng saw that he could not defend the Forbidden City under fierce attack, so he called all civil and military officials to discuss, and the monarch and ministers wept at each other, helpless.

He wrote on the case with his fingers the six words "All civil servants can be killed", showed it to the eunuch who was next to him, and immediately erased it.

Before committing suicide, he wrote an imperial edict with blood, stayed in the palace, and said to Li Zicheng, all the ministers misunderstood me. You can shatter my body and kill all my civil and military officials.He always thought that all the faults belonged to civil and military officials, and hated all those who worked for him.

His elder brother Emperor Tianqi got great pleasure from doing carpentry, was attached to his wet nurse, and believed that Wei Zhongxian was right in everything, so he was mentally at peace.

Emperor Chongzhen was just irritable, worried, doubtful, and hesitant. He was emperor for 17 years and lived 17 painful years.Desperately trying to run the country's major affairs, but do not know how to do it.

He doesn't have a real confidant, he doesn't even have Wei Zhongxian.He has no spiritual beliefs, and once followed Xu Guangqi's advice to believe in Catholicism, but his beloved son Mourning King fell ill, and God did not save the child's life, so he lost faith in God.

He has no real hobbies.He is not lustful, even sending a beautiful woman like Chen Yuanyuan into the palace, he is not interested in sending him out of the palace.

Everyone in the world is vying for the position of the emperor, but no one knows how much suffering Emperor Chongzhen has endured in this position.

In China's thousands of years of history, many monarchs were captured or killed by the enemy, and even more were killed in coups, but Chongzhen was the only one who committed suicide in danger.Because of his suicide, posterity judged him much better than he actually deserved.

Just because he is not good at drinking and sex, and is diligent in political affairs, later generations think that he is a good emperor himself.Even Li Zicheng's proclamation said that he was not really ignorant, but that he was deceived, and all bad things were done by his officials.

Just because he asked Li Zicheng not to kill a common people in his will, later generations thought that he really loved the common people, and because he said, "I am not the king of the subjugated country, all the ministers are the ministers of the subjugated country", later generations thought that the Ming Dynasty Death, the responsibility is on the ministers.In fact, he said such a thing, which shows that he is a reasonable king of subjugation.

Emperor Chongzhen had absolute power, but he killed and killed the ministers of ZTE, the ministers who governed the country and the world, and exchanged a group of ministers who subjugated the country like lanterns, which constituted the conditions for a subjugated king.

Emperor Chongzhen was unlucky and became emperor.On the night when he left the palace in a hurry, when he raised his sword to slash at his daughter, Princess Changping, he said sadly, "Why were you born in my family?"

"The ministers misunderstood me too."

"The monarch died in the country, and the world in 270 years, once it was abandoned, it was all the mistakes of the treacherous ministers, so that's the case."

"It's been 17 years since I ascended the throne, and the rebels are going straight to the capital."

"Although I have humbled my virtue, and blamed heaven, it is all the fault of my ministers."

"When I die without a face, I see my ancestors in the ground. Take off my crown and cover my face with hair. Let the thieves split my corpse. Don't hurt a single person."

Emperor Chongzhen pursed his lips and looked at Zhou Jin with burning eyes, as if he was expecting Zhou Jin to save his millions of people.

Hearing these words, it was not only Zhou Jin who trembled, but also every audience sitting in front of the camera at this time.

"This is the real Emperor Chongzhen!"

"Don't hurt the common people! Who was threatening that Emperor Chongzhen was a tyrant before!"

"To tell the truth, in fact, the Ming Dynasty was doomed to perish in the generation of Emperor Chongzhen. The whole country is in jeopardy, and it is not even a generation or two of emperors who strive for excellence can reverse the poor and weak situation of the Ming Dynasty. .”

"So...Emperor Chongzhen really took on the misfortune of an era."

"Suddenly I was thinking, if Emperor Chongzhen knew that Li Zicheng didn't defend his Ming territory at all, how would he feel in his heart?"

Not only the audience, but Ye Hanlin was the most excited one.

Ye Hanlin's eyes were already red at this time, and his hands were trembling slightly.

No one knows this period of history better than him, and no one can have deeper feelings than him.

After Li Zicheng entered the Forbidden City, he strictly ordered military discipline, not paying food, not hurting people, not taking money, and not humiliating women.

However, how could Li Zicheng's hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses provide this food and grass?Within a few days, there was a shortage of food and grass, and military discipline suddenly disappeared.

Looting and killing nobles, tortured officials, looting property, humiliating wives and daughters!
Li Zicheng started his army for eighteen years and only served as emperor for one day.

And all of this is because of the Shanhaiguan incident...

"Your Majesty, these... Li Zicheng is working hard to do it."

"But...he's not good enough."

Zhou Jin took a deep breath, pursed her lips and said.

"This statement...why?"

Emperor Chongzhen was subconsciously taken aback when he heard the words.

"Because he was the emperor for only one day, and then fled."

"He defeated you, so naturally someone also defeated him."

"Li Zicheng and Wu Sangui, the general stationed at Shanhaiguan, fought a battle of stones. The battle continued until April 22, and Wu's army was gradually exhausted. Wu Sangui surrendered to Dorgon, the regent of the Qing Dynasty. The two armies jointly defeated Li Zicheng. The main general Liu Zongmin was injured and ordered to retreat. On the 26th Li Zicheng fled to the Forbidden City with only 29 people. On the 34th, Li Zicheng proclaimed himself emperor in the Forbidden City, angrily killed [-] members of Wu Sangui's family, and fled to Xi'an the next day, retreating through Shanxi and Henan."

"Later Li Zicheng was exiled in the village, but was killed by the peasants, and his body was unknown. After Li Zicheng died in battle, the peasant army was full of grief and anger, and immediately swept up the Jiugong Mountain area, retaliating against the local people."

When he heard that Li Zicheng was killed by the villagers when he was exiled in the village, Emperor Chongzhen looked up to the sky and laughed for a while.

"Hahahahaha! Okay, okay!"

"Good kill! This is the treatment this thief deserves!"

"I am the Ming Dynasty..."

However, before Emperor Chongzhen finished speaking, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and his entire expression froze there.
