Chongzhen Undergraduates

"Stop complaining, and hurry up if you have something to say."

Wu Ganlai was stunned for a moment, he wasn't used to the way of speaking that didn't follow court etiquette, he didn't know how to speak.

"The 6000 million taels of silver weighs 370 catties based on the new 600 taels system. Each person needs [-] people to carry [-] catties. In addition to the interrogation by the guards at the gate, I really have no way Complete the task within the allotted time."

Wu Ganlai finished a long paragraph of words with numbers in one breath, he let out a sigh of relief after speaking, and then looked at Zhu Youjian fixedly.Zhu Youjian was delighted to see Wu Gan, it was rare for this guy to be forced into this position.

"Then how much money is left here?"

"There are only 200 million taels of silver left here for inspection, and the rest are gone."

"Didn't you say you haven't finished moving? Where did the money go?"

"The entry and exit checks at the gate were too strict. At first I didn't send anyone to transport the silver from the gate. I found a group of refugees and spent five days opening a tunnel from a hundred paces away, and then transferred all the silver to the city. If you give me another three days, I can transport all the silver out of the city."

Zhu Youjian laughed, Wu Ganlai is really a talent. If he was allowed to smuggle more than 370 million catties, he would not be able to steal it from the guards who broke into the army at the gate.This is more than 900 tons of supplies. Unless the guard at the door is blind, how could it not be noticed.

"How much silver is left in the city?"

"There is still half of it. I planned to transport another batch out of the city today, but since this morning, the gate of the city has been under martial law, only entering and not exiting."

"Tell those who haven't left the city to hide them all. Everyone hides in the cellar at home, and the silver is also hidden. Don't leave one or two on the ground." In order to prevent robbery by the army, Zhu Youjian had already ordered the city All the subordinates in Li dug a large number of cellars at home.

"What if we break into the army and search?"

"They're running out of time."

As soon as Zhu Youjian finished speaking, news came from the door: King Chuang ordered all the materials in the craftsman's workshop to be loaded into vehicles, and Wang Chuang's personal guards personally escorted them, and they set off immediately.

Afterwards, a team of nearly 5000 soldiers marched into the workshop fully armed, guarding all the passages.All the houses in the artisan workshop were closed, all passages were sealed off, and large vehicles drove into the workshop non-stop.

"Inspect." The leading Chuangjun shouted, and immediately several soldiers broke open the box, which was filled with shiny silver ingots.Opened several boxes in a row, no problem.At this time, an intruding officer next to him asked impatiently, "Where's the gatekeeper? Has there been anything suspicious these days?"

"If you go back to the general, there is nothing suspicious. People who go in and out every day have carefully checked it."

"No time, hurry up and load the car." The leader Chuangjun waved his hand, and all the Chuangjun immediately got busy.

Wu Ganlai secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead, because he had just seen that the silver box replaced by stones was almost exposed.Zhu Youjian's heart is also hanging in his throat, and this time it can be regarded as falling.

More than 500 carts were assembled to transport the silver to the army, and they left the city in a mighty way.Here, Zhu Youjian has received a notice that the Chuang army has won a big victory in Shanhaiguan, and the Chuang king will ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor at noon today, and sacrifice to heaven.

Li Zicheng fled back to the capital. Seeing that the defeat was a foregone conclusion, in order to stabilize the situation in the city a little, he sent someone to spread a message, falsely claiming that the Chuangjun had won a big victory and that Wu Sangui had been defeated.King Chuang will take advantage of Tianwei's great victory to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.Then, the defeat of the Chuangjun entering the city could no longer be concealed from the people in the capital. No matter what the Chuangjun who sent the order said, the city was already in a panic, and there were rioters looting everywhere.

By this time, the Chuangjun in the city had completely turned into bandits, with no discipline at all, murdering and setting fire everywhere, and looting property everywhere.Zhu Youjian saw that there was not even a single rape on the street, and the rebels only cared about grabbing things and running away.

Zhu Youjian was considered an officer in size, so he had to bring two strong women to the Hall of Martial Arts with the messenger.In the Hall of Martial Arts at this time, none of the officials from before the Ming Dynasty were present, and many generals were missing from the Chuangjun, and Liu Zongmin's whereabouts were unknown.

Li Zicheng was thin and thin, he hadn't seen him for two days, and his hair was already growing out. His original majestic face had already been replaced by exhaustion, but his beard was blown away by the wind.Song Xiance stood beside him, his forced calm couldn't suppress his looking around.

Before everyone arrived, Song Xiance looked up at the sky and anxiously announced the start of the enthronement ceremony.

Li Zicheng changed into the dragon robe in a panic, and Zhu Youjian saw the familiar patch on the sleeve of the dragon robe at a glance, which was the clothes worn by Chongzhen before.

"Please ascend the throne, Your Majesty!" It took a while for Song Xiance to finish his words, but Li Zi cd did not move.It wasn't until the people next to him tugged him that Li Zicheng slowly walked towards the dragon chair step by step.Li Zicheng took every step very slowly, raising his feet slowly, and falling slowly.Zhu Youjian would like to interview Li Zicheng's current state of mind, dragon chair, is it easy to sit?

Finally, Li Zicheng walked in front of the dragon chair. He turned around, leaned on the armrest, and slowly tried to sit down.

"Boom~!" There was a loud thunder from far outside the city.

Li Zicheng's ass, which was about to sit down, was startled by the thunder, and he immediately lifted it up.He looked around and saw that there was nothing unusual around him, so he put his butt down again.

"Boom~!" King Chuang just touched the dragon chair with his butt, when thunder came from outside again.

"Reporting to the emperor, it's the sound of cannons." He thought that it would be inappropriate for Chuang Jun to say something in the future.

"Hundreds of officials congratulate!" Song Xiance yelled, finally suppressing the restlessness in the Hall of Martial Arts, and bowed to Li Zicheng together.

"Certificate!" Song Xiance hastily announced the completion of enthronement.

That's it?What about three requests and three speeches?Zhu Youjian witnessed the most sloppy emperor's enthronement ceremony in history, and it took only an incense stick of time before and after, including Li Zicheng's ascent.

The enthronement ceremony was completed, and then the officials fled.The invading army officers and soldiers in the Hall of Martial Heroes dispersed, and Li Zicheng was also surrounded by a group of people and ran out of the palace. Zhu Youjian's patched dragon robe could not support the pull of Li Zicheng's guards, and was torn shortly after leaving the house. into several pieces.A piece of sleeve was blown up by the wind and landed at Zhu Youjian's feet. Zhu Youjian stepped on it, and ran towards Qianqing Palace with two followers smiling.

The palace was once again in chaos, with eunuchs and maids running everywhere.The eunuchs were ignored, but the young court ladies were arrested everywhere by the Chuangjun, while the elderly court ladies were ignored.Zhu Youjian made a plan and stole three sets of old palace ladies' clothes, packed them up quickly, and went straight to the place where the printed letter was hidden.

Chongzhen's seal is safe and sound, but the Qianqing Palace is a little desolate, and the dust on the cabinet is very thick, obviously it has not been cleaned for a long time.Zhu Youjian gently swipe across with his finger, leaving a clear imprint: Liu Yinglong is here for a visit!

Liu Yinglong, this is farewell!Zhu Youjian thought for a while, and left Qianqing Palace without looking back.

In Li Zicheng's bedroom, Chen Yuanyuan was being pushed out with his hands bound by two intruders. Outside the palace gate, a luxurious carriage was parked at the gate, without a single guard.When Zhu Youjian found this place, he happened to see Chen Yuanyuan being escorted into the car and still struggling.

"Let go of me, I'm not going anywhere." Before Chen Yuanyuan finished speaking, her mouth was immediately gagged.At this time, Chen Yuanyuan's maid, Xiaoyu, ran out from the palace, trying to rob Chen Yuanyuan non-stop.

"Hehe, if you can't let go of our brothers, come back to Shaanxi with us and enjoy the blessings!"

"Brother, look at King Chuang who asked us to take Chen Yuanyuan out of the city, but what about the maid beside Chen Yuanyuan?"

"Take it together. Anyway, many brothers are robbing maids in the palace. One more is not too many. Maybe King Chuang can reward us."

"Then keep an eye on the carriage, I'll catch her." A Chuangjun jumped off the carriage after speaking, grabbed Xiaoyu's arm and forced him into the carriage, then happily returned to the carriage, only to find his partner collapsed on the ground On the ground, it has died.I was about to draw the knife, and then the back of my head hurt, and I didn't know anything.

"Come down quickly!" When the desperate Chen Yuanyuan was looking at Xiaoyu complainingly, the car door was opened, and a familiar masked face appeared in front of her, looking at her with a smile.

On the afternoon of the third day of May, Li Zicheng, who hastily ascended the throne, fled the capital in a panic. Before leaving, he set a big fire in the city.The sound of artillery outside the city chased the fleeing Chuangjun all the way westward, and it rang all night.

Li Zicheng had only been emperor for one day, and was driven out of the capital just like that.

Nanke is just a dream!

Chapter 25: Another Invention

The Chuang army fled westward, and Zhu Youjian ran southward.

The two completely different directions provide convenience for transferring materials.What's more, it was a scene of complete chaos.

Wu Ganlai was indeed capable. In just ten days, he recruited 200 young men and 3000 large carts.One thousand soldiers plus one thousand horses.In addition to [-] craftsmen and [-] young and strong, Zhu Youjian and the others took advantage of the night to transport all [-] million taels of silver out of the capital safely.

In Daxing, the small Liuzhuang was suddenly crowded with 1 people.

There are emperors, princes, eunuchs, officials, nobles, troops and common people here.Just like a complete small imperial court!

Before Zhu Youjian arrived in Daxing, he already felt a headache.People were five miles away, and Wang Chengen brought the officials and nobles to kneel on the side of the road to welcome the holy driver.Qin Changgui was leading a group of people on the side of the road to play and play, and the guards of honor such as the Wanmin umbrella were erected so high that they could be seen from two miles away.

"Mb, I think I didn't die fast enough!" Zhu Youjian cursed, and immediately sent someone to rush up to remove the guard of honor and beat Qin Changgui away.

Zhu Youjian didn't scold a large group of officials who were kneeling on the ground. He caught Qin Changgui and scolded: "You said that you are a good bugleman, why are you going to play the trumpet? I want to see you play the trumpet again, and I will cut it off immediately." Your mouth. Go back to the barracks immediately, and don't let them meddle in it."

Qin Changgui got up with a grievance on his face, thinking that I had offended someone, I'm just a trumpet player.If you don't let me play the trumpet, I'll just blow the bugle.
