More than a month later, something major happened in Shengjing outside the pass. Overnight, the heads of dozens of people were cut off from the heads of the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji, Prince Rui, Dorgon, Prince Beile, the head of the Eight Banners, and the Han officials of the Qing Dynasty were cut off. On the largest street in Shengjing, they were built into a Jingguan.

This incident caused a sensation outside the pass, shocked the world, and made the Ming monarchs and ministers in the capital very excited. However, they soon couldn't get up because in just a few days, the same thing happened in the capital. But the difference was that this time, only officials died, and almost all civil officials, most of them were Donglin Party members, and only one King Hui died in the Ming royal family. Moreover, Wang Zhilong was too lazy to take time to cut their heads.

Suddenly, both the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty were in chaos! But in comparison, Wang Zhilong just cut off some rotten meat for the Ming Dynasty, but directly destroyed the backbone of the Qing Dynasty.

Four years have passed in a blink of an eye, and years of floods, droughts and locust plagues have continued. The court was unable to deal with it. The people were hungry and cold, and were displaced everywhere, and even fed for people.

The Qing Dynasty suffered heavy damage and was unable to invade the south. The court had saved a lot of money and food, so why was it still without food to provide disaster relief? In fact, it was not that there was no food, but that the food was not in the treasury, but in the hands of those aristocratic families, merchants and landlords. They had a full warehouse of grain at home, and the people had no food, let alone food, many people didn’t even have land!

Years of natural disasters have left the people with no way to survive. What should we do? They can only rise up. For a moment, Qin, Jin, Henan, and Chu, and all the heroes emerged together.

The leader of the rebel army, Wang Ziyong, and Gao Yingxiang, died in battle one after another. The general Li Zicheng was defeated and suffered many difficulties, but he was also resourceful and good at fighting. He was trained in years of battle with the official army, and he was often able to turn defeat into victory, making the heroes return to their hearts and their subordinates gradually increase. Later, the 13 rebels of the 72nd Battalion of the 13 rebels of the civilian army gathered in Xingyang, Henan. Li Zicheng was greatly promoted and became the leader of the army. Soon he was called the "King of Chuang" and conquered the city and defeated the official army.

Even the people in the world were used by Li Zicheng. Among them, Mu Renqing was very optimistic about Li Zicheng and made friends with him. He and his disciples often helped Li Zicheng, hoping that Li Zicheng could fight to the capital, kill the foolish monarch, destroy the Ming Dynasty, and usher in peace for the world.

Unfortunately, Mu Renqing had limited vision and could not see the situation clearly. Although Li Zicheng was a hero for a while, he was not Zhu Yuanzhang. There were not many real civil and military generals beside Li Yan. The people under him were too mixed and the military discipline was not strict enough. Even without the threat of the Qing Dynasty, it would not be easy to rely on him to save the world and rebuild the new dynasty.

Although the Ming Dynasty has become so decayed that it is time to be destroyed or established, Li Zicheng's army may be able to break it, but it is easy to break it, but it is difficult to rebuild it. Can he rebuild the world that is already full of holes?

Wang Zhilong didn't want the Qing horses outside the pass to step on the Central Plains. He also understood that even if Li Zicheng got the world, he might not be able to cure the world.

Over the past few years, Wang Zhilong, who traveled around the world with Liu Rushi, thought a lot and saw a lot, and realized that the world is already at a time when it has to change. But does it have to change dynasties? Who can guarantee that the people will get peace after the dynasty changes? Change dynasties will have to pay the price, and the people will suffer after all. The longer the war is delayed, the more people will die!

Is the Ming Dynasty really not saved? It is not necessarily true! Can the three dynasties in history that were destroyed and then established, destroyed and rebuilt, be different?

It is easier to destroy the original messy system on this basis to rebuild it. Therefore, Wang Zhilong made a decision to support the Ming Dynasty. Why did the Southern Ming last for so long after the fall of the Ming Dynasty in history mean that the hearts of the world are still towards the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, what Wang Zhilong wanted to support was naturally not Chongzhen in the capital. That guy might be diligent, but his ideas were solidified and too extreme. It was not a material to be an emperor, let alone Zhongxing Ming Dynasty.

The old man could not save him, so he had to put his hope on the little one. So, Wang Zhilong chose the third prince Zhu Cixuan, the third prince in history. The main reason is that he has good roots and cleverness. In addition, he is just a prince who is not very concerned, so it is easier for Wang Zhilong to teach him martial arts and teach him. As for the prince and the fourth prince, one is a little weak in character, and the other is too small.

Since then, in addition to going to the capital for a fixed time every year to secretly teach Zhu Cixuan, Wang Zhilong spent most of his time walking around the world. On the surface, he was traveling with Liu Rushi, but in fact he was making preparations secretly to make friends with some loyal and kind people in the places, killing corrupt officials, and local tyrants and evil gentry.

Wang Zhilong understood that his power alone was relatively limited, but the world was not short of loyal and righteous people, nor was there a shortage of talents. They were the hope of the revival of the Ming Dynasty and an important force in reshaping a peaceful and prosperous era.

As for the civil and military officials in the Ming Dynasty today, there may be some loyal ministers and generals, but most of them are useless. Especially those who read, after the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, those so-called benevolent and righteous people who were full of Confucius and Mencius and righteousness chose to surrender and became lackeys of the Qing Dynasty. Their loyalty and righteousness were just a joke. Their books were read into the belly of the dog, and a bunch of useless scammers!

In the 16th year of Chongzhen, Wang Zhilong took Liu Rushi back and traveled. As soon as he arrived in Jinling City, he saw some soldiers and horses outside the city surrounded by a luxurious carriage, as if they were welcoming someone.

"Master, madam, it seems that the third prince brought someone to welcome us. Will you go directly to us?" The voice of the coachman outside came into the carriage.

In the carriage, Wang Zhilong, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, frowned slightly when he heard this, and then he ordered calmly: "Don't pay attention to him and go directly to the city!"

"My husband, the third prince comes to greet you in person. Isn't it good to avoid you like this?" Liu Rushi, who was holding a white and cute baby, couldn't help but say. Beside him, there was a little girl who looked like a three or four-year-old girl who looked like a porcelain doll leaning on Wang Zhilong's legs and sleeping.

Wang Zhilong snorted softly and said, "What's wrong with him? Although he has a noble status, I am his master. As the saying goes, the king, the king, the elders, and the teacher of heaven, earth, I don't even care about his emperor, let alone him. This kid, after learning from me for several years, thought he had grown his skills and became more and more courageous, dared to secretly run out of the palace, which would turn him back. If he continues like this, he may not even listen to my words sooner or later."

Wang Zhilong couldn't help but be angry! Although the third prince Zhu Cixuan was smart, he was really a bit rebellious. With such an impulsive and reckless personality, it would be difficult for him to become a famous general in the future, let alone become a wise ruler. Wang Zhilong had high hopes for him, but this kid's performance really made Wang Zhilong angry.

"The third prince is still a child, and he is inevitably a little frivolous in his work, but he still respects you, the master!" Liu Rushi said with a smile.

In Jinling City, the old house in Dagongfang has now become Wang Zhilong's residence in Jinling. Shortly after he came back, someone informed him that there was a young man outside who called himself Zhu San, who was the master's apprentice, and came to see him.

"Ha... Zhu San? Let him come in!" Wang Zhilong, who was accompanying Liu Rushi to taste tea in the pavilion, heard it, and then raised his eyebrows and shook his head and smiled at the doorman who came to inform him.

Liu Rushi stood up and said, "My husband, then I'll avoid it first!"

Wang Zhilong nodded gently. After Liu Rushi left, a strong boy in gorgeous clothes strode forward under the leadership of the doorman.
