After driving for half a day, she ate some canned fruits and a few pastries in the morning. Princess Kunxing was already hungry at this time. She took the scallion pancake, grabbed it in her hand and took a bite. She felt that although this thing was dry, it tasted pretty good.

These scallion pancakes are made of kneading the flour into dough, then rolling it flat with a rolling pin, then applying lard and scallion on top, kneading into a ball, then rolling it flat, kneading, and rolling it again, and finally put it in a pan to bake it golden and crispy. The cake made of this is a thousand-layer scallion pancake. These scallion pancakes made of pork taste good, but they are too dry.

"Miss, do you have water?" asked Princess Kunxing.

"Yes." Wang Erniu handed the kettle.

Princess Zhaoren also picked up a cake and ate it in big mouthfuls. Princess Kunxing handed the kettle to her sister.

The soldiers of the personal guards sat on the ground, gnawing dry food, and picked up kettles to drink water. Some people went to the river to pick up water, drink water for horses and mules, and ate them hay. The cavalry soldiers also took cloth bags from the horse's back and took out bean cakes to feed the horses. After resting for about a stick of incense, Li Guodong ordered: "Brothers, keep on rushing!"

"Brother, you are all cavalrymen, but our brothers of the Jinyiwei walked on two legs. We started walking in the middle of the night and walked for another morning. How could we move?" Zhang Shuheng said. In front of Emperor Chongzhen, he had to show that he and Li Guodong did not know each other. Only in this way could he gain the full trust of Chongzhen. After arriving in Nanjing, he naturally became the commander of the Jinyiwei with his own contributions.

Li Guodong shouted: "Since the thief military advisor Li Yan already knows that His Majesty is here, I believe that it will take not long for the thief cavalry to chase him! If we cannot enter Tianjin Guard before the thief cavalry arrives, none of you will be able to escape. Uncle can ride a horse with His Majesty with His Majesty, but what about you? You two legs, a war horse with four legs? What should you do if the queen, princess and the others do? You can't throw it to the thief, right?"

The team set out on the itinerary again, and Chongzhen sat in the shaking carriage. At this time, he heard a noise outside. He opened the curtain and saw countless people kneeling on the side of the road. These people were ragged, pale and thin, kneeling on the side of the road and kowtowed to the passing convoy.

"Dear men, okay, give us a bite."

"Dear masters, we haven't eaten anything for a long time, okay."

Looking at the helpless people, their skeleton-like faces, their limbs like dead wooden sticks, their swollen bodies, their belly swollen because of eating Guanyin soil, and their helpless eyes, Chongzhen shed tears: "Is this my people?"

"Good guys, okay, buy my daughter, just two buns." A couple kneeling on the side of the road, hugging a pair of little girls.

"Stop, stop!" Princess Kunxing shouted anxiously.

"Your Highness, you can't stop! The thief is still behind us." Wang Erniu advised. It was not because of her stern heart, but how could so many people be saved by just a few people? She was worried that the princess' kindness would harm the entire team.

"Sister, these ordinary people are so pitiful! The pair of little girls just now are so pitiful. Can we save them? Good sister, please." Princess Kunxing begged.

Wang Erniu was begged by Princess Kunxing and had no choice but to say to her: "Your Highness Princess, I'll bring those two children over, so I won't be the case!"

"Okay, thank you sister!" Princess Kunxing said gratefully.

Wang Erniu ran towards the couple, took out two scallion pancakes and handed them, and then picked up the little girls: "Don't worry, leave the child to us."

When Li Guodong saw the refugees on the roadside, he suddenly had a plan, so he ordered the parking.

"Dear fellow villagers, Li is now in business and cannot help you. If you want to have a meal, then follow our convoy to Tianjin Wei. When we get there, we will have food to help you! Also, Li asks you all for something, thieves are chasing us behind us. I hope all the fellow villagers can help us block the road." Li Guodong opened his voice and said loudly.

In the capital not far away, Li Zicheng stood on the steps in front of the Huangji Hall burned into ruins, looking at the civil and military officials kneeling all over the square. He spoke loudly according to the method Gu Junen taught him: "Everyone was originally a minister of the Ming Dynasty. Now that he has surrendered to me, your Majesty has already made great progress. After all, you have had a fight between the king and the ministers, and I will be buried with Chongzhen with great burial."

At this time, Li Zicheng was at the peak of his life. Chongzhen died, the prince was presented to him by Zhu Chunchen, and King Ding and King Huai were also presented to him by Zhou Kui. At this time, the prince and two little kings stood behind Li Zicheng. They had just seen the "father emperor" burned to charcoal, and the three children cried loudly.

At this time, Guang Shiheng, who had strongly advised Chongzhen to "death the king" and wanted to be a Shaobao, stood up: "King, the country cannot be without a king for a day, so I will ask the king to ascend the throne to the throne."

Chen Yan also stood up, knelt on the ground and bowed three times and nine times, "King, now that things have come to this point, why do you need to say too much? The destiny of the tomorrow has ended. The destiny of the heaven is the destiny of heaven. Follow the heavens and respond to others, and you should ascend the throne quickly!"

Wei Zaode also made a righteous speech: "I would like to ask the king Shuntian to respond to the throne and become emperor!"

"Since all my dear friends advised me to ascend the throne, I will be reluctant to do it! But the imperial city has been burned to this shape, how should I carry out the throne ceremony?" Li Zicheng asked.

Chen Yan said: "The Huangji Sect has not been burned yet, Your Majesty can ascend the throne at the Huangji Sect."

Li Zicheng laughed loudly and turned to look at the prince Zhu Cilang: "Your Highness, this is your good minister in the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Cilang gritted his teeth and said, "The father mistook mediocre ministers, and the civil and military officials in the court were ruthless and unrighteous. He spoke better than he sang on weekdays. Everyone was loyal ministers who served the country. It's a pity that when the thief came, they surrendered faster than the other!"

Li Zicheng smiled and said, "Your Highness, these treacherous ministers have killed Your Majesty. What I hate most in my life is the treacherous ministers! Wait, see how to avenge the Emperor of Daxing!"

At this moment, someone hurriedly ran in: "King! King! A man came from outside Chengtian Gate. It was from the military advisor Li Yan, who said that if there is an urgent matter, he would report to the King!"

"Xuan!" Li Zicheng said.

After a while, the man sent by Li Yan came to the Huangji Hall, knelt down the steps, and kowtowed to Li Zicheng: "King, I have important matters to tell you about my humble duties, and I hope the king will retreat."

Li Zicheng turned to Gu Junen and said, "Mr. Gu, take him to the back and ask what's going on."

Gu Junen responded and took the man behind the ruins of Huangji Gate to ask. The man told Gu Junen a big news: "Tell the king quickly, Chongzhen's tyrant king is not dead! The Jinyiwei rescued him from the capital! He is fleeing to Tianjin Guard! There are only one thousand Jinyiwei and three thousand cavalry beside him. Please send troops to chase him quickly!"

"This is serious?" Gu Junen asked.

"I am willing to guarantee it with my head, and every word I am said is true!"

Gu Junen did not dare to be negligent, so he ran back immediately and whispered a few words in Li Zicheng's ear.

Li Zicheng was shocked and turned around and shouted, "Dear friends, please retreat first!"

In the square, the civil servants and military generals of the former Ming Dynasty retreated.

Then Li Zicheng ordered the crown prince of Chongzhen, King Ding and King Huai to take back for supervision. He immediately took Gu Junen and Niu Jinxing back to the camp of the rebel army.

"We have all been deceived. The foolish lord is not dead. I don't know who the two dead people are. As long as we catch the foolish lord, we will know it." Li Zicheng said while walking on the road.

"King, let's immediately click the cavalry to chase after you! Chase the foolish lord and kill him!" Niu Jinxing said.

"No!" Gu Junen said quickly, "Catching up with the foolish monarch, you should capture it alive. If you kill the monarch, you may be despised by the people of the world. Capture the monarch of Chongzhen, raise him, and give him a foolish monarch, and let the people of the world see how kind and righteous we are."

"Okay, leave quickly and don't say anything more," Li Zicheng glared with one eye, "No matter what, you have to catch the foolish lord first!"
