The news of Taiyuan's loss spread quickly to all directions like a plague.

But before people could react, even more terrifying bad news came again: Yuan Zongdi, the main force of the refugee army, attacked overnight. In just one night, he captured Shunde Prefecture City, and surrendered in the county and villages along the road.

Perhaps God felt the sadness of this huge dynasty that had lasted for more than 270 years. Early in the morning, the bleak autumn rain floated in the capital city.

The storm is about to come and the wind fills the building, and the spring river is warm and the ducks are prophets.

At this time, the fool knew that the wind direction was unstable. The voice that had been discussing the attack on Xu Changqing and his troops had long been evaporated.

Whether it is the teahouse in Qianmen, the brothel in Dashilan, or the wine shops and casinos everywhere, everyone keeps their mouths tightly, for fear of causing trouble.

At the end of the Chen hour, the heavy morning dynasty finally ended. Emperor Chongzhen's legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he returned to the Donghun Pavilion with difficulty as if he was walking corpse.

This young and extremely powerful emperor no longer has the decisiveness and uprightness of the past.

Inadvertently, there were a lot of hair on his temples. Against the backdrop of the dragon robe with several patches, it seemed like a night returning home in the bleak autumn rain. There was clearly a road ahead, but I didn't know where this road would lead...

In the warm pavilion, the charcoal fire in the brazier made a crackling sound, dispelling the bleak autumn frost outdoors and making the interior warm as spring.

But Emperor Chongzhen could not feel any warmth at this time, but instead he was like falling into an ice cave!

At this time, what made him heartbroken was not actually the loss of Xijing, Taiyuan, Shunde, and the loss of countless cities...

But...

The storm brought about by the refugee army, the government army resisted softly and powerlessly, especially the gentry and powerful people who rose with the wind!

Don’t they know who gave them such a life and who protected their glory for generations?

Emperor Chongzhen really wanted to arrest all these two and five boys, parade in the streets and execute them, and then peel and fill them with weeds, so that they could relieve the hatred in their hearts!

Unfortunately, it is no longer realistic now...

Emperor Chongzhen suddenly wanted to cry, but found that he couldn't cry at all because this could not solve any problem, but instead added laughter to others...

"Father, you, drink some water..."

At this time, Zhu Mei, who was as slim as green as green, was a little scared, but she forced her courage to come to Emperor Chongzhen, holding a glass of warm water in her snow-white jade hand.

"Kunxing, why are you here?!"

Emperor Chongzhen's sad eyes suddenly became cold and cold, like a thin tiger, staring at Zhu Mai fiercely.

He is the noble emperor, the descendant of the Taizu, and the king and father of countless people in the world. How could he let his daughter see his miserable appearance?

"Father, son minister, son minister, ah..."

Zhu Ma was about to explain, but she had never seen her father look so terrifying. In a panic, the cup in her hand fell directly to the ground. Even though the water in the cup was not hot, it still burned her, which made her even more scared and she couldn't help but exclaim in horror.

"waste!"

"Nothing can be done well! Get back to me!"

Emperor Chongzhen was already irritable, and the palace maids and eunuchs dared not touch his bad temper. The anger he had accumulated finally found the outlet for venting, and he criticized Zhu Mo for no reason.

"yes……"

Zhu Mo's tears seemed to flow out silently. She wanted to say something and told her father that she was just worried about him and wanted to help him share his worries, but at this moment, she couldn't say anything and could do nothing. She could only look at her father and take care of her.

These days, although Emperor Chongzhen cut off the connection between the inside and outside the palace and strictly prevented outside news from entering the inside palace, how could such things be prevented?

Whether it is Queen Zhou or Zhu Ma, including Zhu Cilang, they have already obtained it.

News has arrived...

Seeing Zhu Ma's thin figure staggering out of the hall, Emperor Chongzhen's heart aches for no reason, and then his tears couldn't stop surging out.

How come the world is so beautiful, how come the Ming Dynasty is like this?

Could it be that Zhu Youjian is really a foolish monarch who is despised by all the people?

"No--"

Emperor Chongzhen suddenly couldn't help but let out a long roar, and his face suddenly became extremely ferocious!

He is not a fool!

He is definitely not a fool!

How could he be a foolish monarch?

It was clearly those poor ministers who occupied high positions one by one, spending a lot of money, but no problem could be solved!

Damn it them, how could it be his emperor?

After the vent was passed, Emperor Chongzhen gradually calmed down.

Although the matter is ruined, it cannot be solved. At least, Xu Changqing is still there, and the most elite core of the Nine Borders is still there. He still has a great opportunity to quell the world's chaos, revive the Ming Dynasty, and create peace for all generations!

The most important thing now is to solve the problem!

"Yes, you can't panic now, let alone be confused. You must solve the problem first!"

Emperor Chongzhen murmured to himself tremblingly, forcing himself to continue to calm down.

In today's dynasty, the ministers were crying and chaotic. Although no problem was solved, they also put forward the most critical core point!

That is, the court has no money!

What to do if you don’t have money?

In the past, even if he had no money, he would be able to save money and save money, Emperor Chongzhen would support himself.

But at this time, his mentality had changed, and his arrogant self-esteem was worthless in the face of this bloody reality!

Emperor Chongzhen also remembered the constructive idea proposed by the former chief minister Xue Guoguan: "Borrow money from the people!"

However, borrowing money from the people at this time is a bit unworkable, and the people's hearts are already in chaos. If this happens, it will only continue to be even more chaotic and will not be worth the loss.

The better choice is the ministers in the court and these Ming nobles.

After years of accumulation, which family of them is not their family, their business, and their wealth is beautiful, their homes are beautiful, and their concubines are beautiful?

But now is no longer the time when the court first ascended the throne. It is extremely strong. If you borrow money, you must lower your posture and pay more attention to methods.

The common people who borrow money all have to buy something and want to please him. Even if he is the emperor, he is a bit in trouble at this time, so he must think of a solution.

After all, Emperor Chongzhen has been an emperor for so many years. After thinking about it for a while, he found a candidate: Empress Zhou’s biological father, the uncle Zhou Kui!

Queen Zhou followed him since he was still the king. Since he ascended the throne, he would reward Zhou Kui heavily during festivals. In addition, in recent years, Zhou Kui has made many tricks to take advantage of his reputation as the emperor, and his life is very luxurious.

At this time, my son-in-law, was in trouble. Can you help me as an old man?

By the way, Tian Hong met them.

Although Concubine Tian has passed away, in order to compensate the Tian family in recent years, he has also given him a lot of rewards. In the future, when the chaos will be quelled and the Ming Dynasty will be replenished, they will be replenished.

He is a dignified emperor, can he still break his trust?

The more I think about it, the more excited Emperor Chongzhen became!

As long as you have money, you can even avoid the arrogant nine-sided soldiers. The tens of thousands of people in the Beijing camp can have strong combat power.

Don’t forget that they repelled the main offensive of the Qing army.

Could it be that no matter how strong a thief is, he can still be stronger than a Tartar?

When he thought of him, he immediately borrowed a lot of money, and the Beijing camp reorganized, and countless soldiers served their lives. Not only did they sweep the refugee army, but they also quickly swept the Qing Dynasty and the world was invincible.

The quiet and peaceful world, Emperor Chongzhen felt as sweet as honey.

He asked the eunuch to call some water, wash his face, and make a garment. Emperor Chongzhen wanted to send someone to call Queen Zhou over, but after thinking about it, he felt it was not good, so he was busy taking someone to the Kunning Palace directly.

"After, borrow money from your family?"

In Kunning Palace, Empress Zhou was so happy to see Emperor Chongzhen coming so early for the first time, but when she heard Emperor Chongzhen speak, her pretty face changed.

"What? Queen, is there any difficulties?"

Although Emperor Chongzhen's tone was still strong and kept warm, the unpleasantness was clearly visible.

"This is not impossible, it's just the character of the emperor and my father, I'm afraid, I'm afraid..."

"Empress, we have been married for so many years, can't you trust me? I borrowed it, not asking him for it. When I quell the disaster of the thief and revived my Ming Dynasty, I will definitely compensate the country ten times a hundred times. Now, I just want the country to help me overcome this small difficulty in the moment!"

Facing his wife, Emperor Chongzhen still maintained strong enough.

"This, this..."

Queen Zhou bit her red lips hard, and after a while, she said, "Emperor, I'm going to try it..."

"Okay. Queen, I know you are the best to me, so I'm here to wait for your good news!"

...

Under the bleak autumn rain, Empress Zhou came to the Zhou State Mansion in various ways.

When the queen saw this weather, she actually came. Zhou Kui was quite happy and was busy asking someone to prepare a banquet.

But when he heard his daughter say his intention in a very entangled way, Zhou Kui's expression changed instantly, and he said with a scoundrel: "Daughter, don't you not know the situation in our family? We have earned some money over the years, but our family has a large population. Last time, the eldest son of your second uncle's family spent more than 30,000 taels, and our family spent another one..."
