Chapter eight hundred and fifty two.
Donglin calculated everything, but missed this kind of people's heart, so that he was too smart to do everything, but he failed in the end.
Not only were the rebels who entered the city looting, but even the defenders of Yingtian joined the robbery. Standing on the wall of the palace, watching the greatest city in Jiangnan fire everywhere in the night, it was also experiencing the greatest destruction. The howling and cursing kept coming to his ears. Gao Hongtu, who had been on duty in the palace, was also like Shi Kefa. In an instant, he seemed to have been aged for dozens of years, holding the wall and sighing.
"Etiquette collapses and music is ruined, and it will never be restored!"
But after just looking forward for a moment, Gao Hongtu pulled out his sword with a thunderous voice, and headed straight for the harem with a gloomy face. While walking, he was still roaring sharply.
"I'll order the palace gates to prepare for war and defend Your Majesty!"
He responded to his promise and followed him, and more than a dozen Gao family servants put on their helmets and armor and pulled out their weapons.
The disaster that Beijing had experienced a few years ago was repeated in Nanjing this time. The thief army had not yet arrived. The originally strict order in the palace had completely collapsed. The eunuchs and palace maids had completely lost the rules of the past. They were timid and cleaned up some gold, silver and fine materials, fled out of the palace in fear, and the bolder ones simply stole some treasures inside. The long-term heavy pressure of life on weekdays made the eunuchs feel distorted. Some of them took this opportunity to take revenge and beat the eunuchs who had bullied themselves to death. Some of the more mean palace concubines also suffered from the various aspects of life. They were also vividly interpreted in this small world.
But he ignored all this. As long as he did not block his own way, Gao Hongtu ignored it. He came in from the cabinet wall and headed straight for the Emperor's Bedroom Guanghua Hall. After running for more than ten minutes, the tall and gorgeous Emperor's Bedroom just reflected his faint eyes.
Unlike the bright lights in daily life, today's Guanghua Palace has also faded away all the glitz of the past, dark and silent. Several gorgeous rich doors are closed tightly, and a fierce light appears from Gao Hongtu's eyes. His pale and white head wearing black sand suddenly shook forward, and found two rocks from the rockery. The two Gao family servants hugged each other and rushed towards the gate.

The doors of carved beams and painted buildings have beautiful appearance and majesty, but in fact they are a little weak. They cracked violently under the sudden impact, and several eunuchs inside were knocked to the ground. In front of the innermost windowsill, a huge ball of meat immediately covered his head and shouted in fear.
"Don't kill me! I will give you whatever you want, and I will give you the throne. I will abdicate now! I will abdicate now!"
A strong sense of disdain appeared in the turbid pupils, but Gao Hongtu still knelt heavily on the ground with his servants, kowtowed and asked.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, the old minister Gao Hongtu comes to protect the carriage!"
"Mr. Gao!"
The voice suddenly became several tones. The turtle climbed out of the quilt with great difficulty, holding the wall with difficulty, and Emperor Hongguang Zhu Yousong, who was as fat as a ball, ran over excitedly and shouted in a hurry.
"Mr. Gao, you came too timely, quickly protect me and leave the palace!"
"That's right! Mr. Gao has made great contributions to protecting the emperor! It's a great contribution. Let's leave the palace quickly!" The eunuch Tian Cheng was sweating profusely and shouted excitedly and quickly, but Gao Hongtu, who was kneeling on the ground, shook his head solemnly and poured a basin of cold water on the heads of the emperor and the eunuch.
"Your Majesty, the palace has been surrounded and cannot break out!"
After a thump, even the floor buzzed and revealed several cracks. Zhu Yousong sat on the ground with a breathless eyes, but for only a few seconds, his strong desire to survive made him jump up suddenly and shouted in a hurry.
"Mr. Gao, then let's surrender! You go out to contact the traitors for me. As long as I spare my life, I will give them whatever they want!"
"His Majesty!"
Gao Hongtu suddenly shouted loudly, and his throat scared Zhu Yousong to tremble suddenly. Although he was still kneeling on the ground, his face was as ferocious as a ghost, and he roared fiercely with murderous intent.
"Your Majesty, as the grandson of Emperor Wanli, and the lord of the world, how can you bow down and be humiliated when the country is overthrown? The old minister dares to ask Your Majesty to commit suicide quickly and die for the country!"
"Sad for the country..., sacrifice for the country!"
Fear appeared in the fat eyes that were squinting, and a clever war broke out all over his body. This was the first time in his life that Zhu Yousong crawled back so quickly. At the same time, he could shake off his fat, fat face, and shouted in horror.
"No! I don't want to die! I'm not dead! I'm not dead!"
"Mr. Gao, are you forcing the palace to rebel? Are you going to rebel?"
After all, seeing Hongguang growing up, he was in a state of mind. The eunuch Tian Cheng also left behind his usual tacit understanding with the Donglin Party and pointed at Gao Hongtu in anger and shouted and scolded.
Pooh~
The sharp sword passed by his chest. He never expected that this literati was so vicious. He stabbed him as soon as he said that. Looking at the half-sword in his chest, his fingers trembled at Gao Hongtu's nose in disbelief, and suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood from his mouth. With a thump, the Hongguang fell to the side of the most favored eunuch.
"Big partner, Mr. Gao, you actually killed Big partner!"
His hands were covered with blood. As Zhu Yousong shouted in fear, Gao Hongtu waved forward gloomyly.
"Send Your Majesty to Heaven!"
"No! No! Mr. Gao, please spare me! I will pass the throne to you, Mr. Gao, please spare me!"
Amid the screams of begging for mercy, several Gao family servants directly pressed Zhu Yousong's fat body, wrapped the white silk in his hand in his nose and tears, and then hung it on the beam of the house. Several small eunuchs were panicked and wanted to rescue him, but they were immediately killed by the Gao family servants on the side, and they did not let anyone go.
The blood seemed to have confused Gao Hongtu's eyes, and looked at the emperor hanging on the beam of the house, rolling his eyes, and kicking his feet with his tongue out. His old eyes were full of ferociousness.
Even if Donglin was defeated in this battle, even if the forces of the proud family were destroyed, he still could not let Fushe laugh to the end. As long as the emperor Zhu Yousong was taken away, no matter how Zhang Pu whitewasted, his crime of rebellion would never be washed away! Even if he died, he would never let Fushe feel comfortable!
Just as Gao Hongtu's hideous gaze was swaying Emperor Hongguang began to weaken. A stream of yellow and unpleasant liquid wet his crotch. His tongue stretched out long. His eyes turned back with all their might. His face had turned blue and purple due to suffocation.
But no one expected that as this happened, Zhu Yousong ate and drank, raising himself like a pig, but his heavy weight saved his life. With the fluttering, even the flexible silk was stretched to the extreme. With a torn sound, the white silk hanging on his head broke with a loud bang. With a click, Zhu Yousong fell on the floor and smashed the floor into a big hole.
His tongue finally shrank back, covering his neck, Emperor Hongguang was breathing heavily.
Looking at this scene in disbelief, Gao Hongtu immediately roared anxiously again: "Hurry, pull from both sides and send Your Majesty back to heaven! Hurry!"
The Gao family's servant, who was also frightened, quickly stretched out the second white silk again. Before Zhu Yousong could take a breath, he once again strangled his neck. The two of them tried their best to pull the white silk to both sides. Once again, the emperor's fat face was strangled red.
But in the world, there is often only one opportunity. If you lose it, you will never come back again! In order to send the emperor back to heaven and sacrifice to his country, a family member just lit two lamps. Just as the two servants were stying Zhu Yousong's neck like Emperor Yang of Sui, two sounds suddenly sounded, and two big holes broke into the window. The servant who was committing the crime was like a punch from an invisible big fist, screaming and falling out.
His eyes were about to break, and he didn't even care about the last etiquette. Gao Hongtu jumped up suddenly, and personally pulled the two ends of the two white silks, and his boots stepped on Zhu Yousong's back, and he strangled the other end. With the banging sound, the remaining door was kicked off. Several Gao family servants were about to cut off with their swords, but facing them was a bloody bayonet. A few slaps, all the loyal dog legs of these wealthy families were stabbed to the heart.
The murder was so hard that he could no longer see the appearance of a literati. Chen Zilong pushed the guard away and rushed in. The scene of Gao Hongtu killing in front of him happened to flow into his eyes clearly, and his eyes were about to break. In his anxiety, he slapped his gun and hit Gao Hongtu's forehead with a bang.
No matter how strong his will is, he can't resist the dizzy blow, and his forehead was bleeding. Gao Hongtu was suddenly moved aside. Several Jiujiang soldiers hurriedly untied the white silk on Zhu Yousong's neck. The fat emperor rolled his eyes and collapsed on the ground. With violent breathing, he actually came back to life again.
Fushe also needs to rob the name of this and is unwilling to bear the name of regicide. Seeing that the emperor was so embarrassed that he didn't look like an emperor, he wouldn't be able to kick his legs back to heaven, Chen Zilong felt relieved, and immediately, he waved his hand angrily again.
"Take this brave, regicide rebellious thief, take it down!"
Everything is over! Blood was gushing from the forehead, and Gao Hongtu's eyes were about to pop out, and he shouted and scolded the thieves of Fushe, who were dragged down by his shoulders, and the last Donglin leader was also captured.
At Chen Zilong's order, four strong military men gritted their teeth and made the blood vessels on their foreheads soar. They worked hard to support Emperor Hongguang, who had not yet recovered, and rushed to Jianji Palace. At this time, their chests were full of excitement. Chen Zilong didn't even care about his solemn behavior as a literati. He climbed up the bell tower himself, grabbed the heavy bell hammer, and ran towards Jingyang Bell.
