Zhao Peng could rest assured to put Princess Kunxing here to recuperate, because a person who was willing to sacrifice for the Ming Dynasty would definitely not betray the princess. On the contrary, the nobles in the court had no moral integrity.

As a Jinyiwei Qianhu, Gao Wencai still reserved a lot of trauma medicines here, including Tian Qi, Niuhuang, Ruyi Dan and other precious medicines. The most expensive one is the trauma medicine produced in Yunnan. Although Yunnan Baiyao had not been invented in that era, there were earth-based trauma medicines from Yunnan, which had very good results in treating trauma. Most people in the capital could not get those trauma medicines at all, but it was not a problem for Jinyiwei.

The maid cooperated with Fei Zhen'e to apply medicine to Princess Kunxing. While cleaning the wounds and applying medicine, Princess Kunxing woke up in pain and soon fell asleep in a drowsy way.

After Princess Kunxing was cut off in the original time and space, Fei Zhen'e saved her and sent her to Zhou Xing's mansion and was driven out. Fei Zhen'e had to send Princess Kunxing back to the palace. Li Zicheng quickly entered the palace and ordered the medical officer to treat Princess Kunxing. When the princess was out of danger, Li Zicheng asked her to send her to Zhou Kui's mansion. Because it was Li Zicheng who sent her to the princess, Zhou Kui had to accept the princess. Later, not long after, the Qing army entered the pass, and Emperor Shunzhi refused the princess' request to become a monk and appointed her as Princess Changping, so that the princess would marry Zhou Shixian.

And now in this time and space, none of this will happen again.

Zhao Peng and Gao Wencai were talking in the lobby outside and discussing the next plan. Zhao Peng, who decided to save the prince, said: "Sir, let's surrender first to the thief. Only in this way can we take His Highness the Prince and His Highness the Princess out of the capital and protect them from safely going south."

"Why do you have to surrender?" He disagreed with Gao Wencai, who was loyal to the Ming Dynasty. "Your Highness the Princess is already in our hands, so don't worry that she will fall into the hands of the thieves. If you want to rescue Your Highness the Crown Prince, we summoned the lost Jinyiwei, and everyone disguised as civilians. When the thieves were unprepared, rescue Your Highness the Crown Prince and escort Your Highness to Nanjing."

After all, fraudulent surrender is a shameful thing, and Gao Wencai is unwilling to humiliate his reputation. So he hopes that if he can save the prince without fraudulent surrender, he will not need to cheat the surrender plan. Of course, if there is really no other way, Gao Wencai can only cheat the surrender and save the master.

Besides, the crown prince Zhu Cixuan had become a prisoner at this time. Before the city was broken, Emperor Chongzhen asked the three princes to find Zhou Guohou. However, the shameless Zhou Kui asked the door to close and prevent the three princes from entering the mansion. In the end, the three men had no choice but to join a eunuch, but were betrayed by the eunuch. As a result, the three princes all fell into Li Zicheng's hands.

Zhu Cixuan sat in the central camp of the rebel army. Li Zicheng did not order him to tie him up, but just imprisoned the other two princes elsewhere. The prince Zhu Cixuan was invited to the tent of the rebel king and placed a table of wine and food in front of him. Although he had not eaten for a day and a night, Zhu Cixuan was hungry, but he did not even move his chopsticks.

Although Zhu Cilang tried his best to pretend to be calm, he was still a young man who was only fifteen or sixteen years old. He could not hide the panic in his eyes. He didn't know what fate he would face.

A young man who is only fifteen or sixteen years old is of course afraid that he will be killed, but he still cheers himself up: Don’t be afraid! You are a descendant of the Zhu family, don’t embarrass Taizu! A real man dies and dies, so why fear it!

"The King of Breaking Arrives!" A long shout came from outside.

A group of samurai in silver helmets and silver armor surrounded Li Zicheng, wearing golden helmets and golden armor, and two tall and strong warriors in front opened the curtains of the middle tent and welcomed the King of Breaking into the tent.

"Bold! Zhu Cilang has not knelt down quickly!" The two warriors shouted angrily.

"I am the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, how can I betray the thief!" Zhu Cilang said angrily.

Li Zicheng drank the samurai and asked Zhu Cixuan with a pleasant face: "Your Highness, where is your father?"

"Crash in the Nangong!" Zhu Cilang said coldly.

Li Zicheng sighed: "If Your Majesty is still here, I should respect him!"

Zhu Cilang said: "I just want to die quickly!"

Li Zicheng laughed: "You are innocent, why do you want to die? Your Highness, please have a meal first!" After that, Li Zicheng sat down and accompanied Zhu Cixuan to have a meal together, but Zhu Cixuan still didn't move his chopsticks. Li Zicheng ignored him and just feasted on himself.

Not long after, a man dressed in a military general came in outside and whispered softly in Li Zicheng's ear: "The King of Chuang, the foolish monarch has not been found yet."

Li Zicheng whispered in the man's ear: "Let the soldiers search the whole city and be sure to find the foolish monarch! If they find it, they must treat him with courtesy!"

"No!" the man stepped back.

Not long after, someone came to report that Emperor Chongzhen was not found in the palace, and that there was no money in the palace, and only a bunch of dragon robes with pudding were found.

Li Zicheng, who had always positioned Chongzhen as a fool, was stunned and his impression of Chongzhen increased greatly. Li Zicheng sighed and asked Zhu Cixuan with a kind look: "Your Highness, your father is so diligent and thrifty, but why did he lose the world?"

Zhu Cilang said, "How can I know? I hope you will ask all officials, and all officials should know it!"

Li Zicheng laughed: "Why should I ask? Even if the father-in-law of Zhou treats the crown prince like this, what are the officials of the Ming Dynasty? Well, I will ask him with a stick!"

When Zhu Ciyang heard this, he sighed that his father had raised funds to save the country, but all the civil and military officials were crying poor. His grandfather turned him out at a critical moment. He was immediately furious and didn't care about his gentleness: "But please do whatever you want! All the civil and military officials were not good, and it was not related to the prince's business if they were all killed!"

Li Zicheng twisted his beard and smiled, "If your father is still there, let's see how I avenge your father and son!"

"How can the rebel thief be willing to be imprisoned by the emperor? The time when the city is broken is the day when the emperor dies for his country!" Zhu Cilang said angrily.

Li Zicheng said: "If your father has died, I will definitely be buried with a generous gift!"

Zhu Cilang lowered his head and said nothing. He knew that his father's character would definitely not fall into Li Zicheng's hands. He knew that his father had probably already sacrificed his life for his country at this time. He knew that his mother, who loved his mother, was no longer there, and that he knew that it was his father who ordered his mother to commit suicide. Since his father made such a great determination to force his mother to death, then his father would definitely not live alone.

Thinking of this, Zhu Cixuan suddenly asked, "Why did you rebel?"

Li Zicheng sighed: "I was a postman, and the emperor ordered the world to be sentenced to the postman. I said I was willing to do it because I lost my articles. I had to go home to farm, but the northwest drought and locusts were successively drought in the northwest. I knew that the tax was not lost, so I pretended to be usury from Juren. Later, Juren Ai forced his debts to force him to eat people in the northwest. How could I pay back the debt? So I sued Juren Ai to go to the county government office. The county magistrate was entrusted by Juren Ai to kill chickens and monkeys, and took shackles and weapons. He was shocked in the prison. My nephew robbed and killed him and left him. He then angrily killed Juren Ai's family. He fled to Gansu to join the army to eat imperial grain, but he was still uneasy to get food. The officers were greedy for military pay, so the soldiers were almost not full of food. In the second year of Chongzhen, the border troops of Gansu were dispatched to attack Jurchens, and their wages were the same. I then killed the officials and rebelled. It was not that I did not want to be a good citizen, but I would be happy to rebel?"

Who would be willing to rebel if the common people still had a bite of food?

Zhu Cixuan said: "This is a natural disaster, how can you blame your father?"

"Natural disasters? Why didn't the court provide relief? Could it be that the whole world is suffering from disasters?" Li Zicheng asked.

Zhu Cixuan retorted: "Who said the court did not provide disaster relief?"

Li Zicheng said angrily: "The food for disaster relief in the court has not fallen into the hands of the people, and it is all officials, tyrants and gentry!"

At this moment, someone came to report that the top scholar Wei prefect had submitted a letter of advice, saying that Li Zicheng followed the will of heaven and ascended the throne as emperor.
