Chapter 32 Sunset Forbidden City Part 6: Women Enter

Imperial City.

The imperial city with a circumference of seven miles was divided into two from Jianji Hall. In front of Jianji Hall was the place where the emperor handled government affairs, and then the harem group.

There is also a low wall between the two, and there are soldiers guarding the wall. They used to be guarding the Han general, but now they are the defense zone of Xin Sizhong, the commander general of the imperial city. Of course, his defense zone has ended here, and he cannot get into the harem.

The low wall between the palace and the hall was guarding his personal guards. In this, the "Saudtar" Amba, who he had recently included in Gansu, is one of them.

"Sauspicious Tartars" and "Dog Tartars" are all the names of the Dashun Army to Anba, but he was not angry and willing to accept it. When others said that, he always looked happy and stupid. Only Xin Sizhong knew that this person seemed honest but was actually meticulous, otherwise he would not have been allowed to command his most elite three hundred personal guards, and he would have let him take the flag when the army went to war.

At this time, Amba was standing on the low wall and looking into the harem. The northwest of Jianji Hall was the Cining Palace. Somehow, Amba, who rarely climbed the city walls, mostly patrolled the halls, but has been here for a few days.

It is said that after Li Zicheng took the imperial city, the subsequent trend was almost exactly the same as in history. Emperor Chongzhen and Wang Chengen successively invested in Wansui Mountain. Later, Li Zicheng buried him in the tomb of Tian Guifei (Siling), and did not make too much embarrassment for the concubines and the concubines of the Ming Dynasty in the harem.

After occupying the harem, he only included a palace maid named Dou into his sequence of concubines, and the rest were still on their own. Two of them deserve special mention.

When the enemy broke through the inner city and marched towards the palace in large numbers, Emperor Chongzhen asked his two sons (the prince had been sent to Nanjing) to defect to the Jiading Bo Zhou Kui, and he held a long sword to kill all his concubines and daughters. As a result, Concubine Yuan was not dead after she was thrown into the palace. The fourteen-year-old Princess Changping fainted and not dead after being cut off her left arm.

After Li Zicheng occupied the capital, except for the talents he liked, he naturally had no good looks for other dignitaries, royal relatives, and wealthy merchants. Whether you surrender voluntarily or were forced to surrender, you would implement the recovery of stolen money and provide assistance. However, he was very generous to the people who remained in the harem by Emperor Chongzhen, including that he won the Yong King, and after King Ding, he did not make things difficult for them.

This is almost a world of difference from the attitude of the Qing Dynasty in later history. Whenever they meet a royal man named Zhu, they will definitely not tell the truth or false, and they will kill them. What's more, King Ding Zhu Cizhao later hid his identity for decades and had a lot of children and grandchildren. He did not have any threat to the Qing Dynasty at all. He was still killed by a family and the direct man Ding Lingchi was executed.

In comparison, the Ming Dynasty was undoubtedly much more tolerant of the royal family of the Yuan Dynasty, the Song Dynasty was the Great Zhou family of the Tang Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty, and the Jin Dynasty was undoubtedly much more tolerant of the royal family of the Han Dynasty.

This time when he went to Shanhaiguan, he not only brought Wu Xiang, but also two young princes and the King of Jin from Taiyuan, in order to force and persuade Wu Sangui to surrender again.

Therefore, even if Li Zicheng is not in the capital, with Concubine Dou here, people including Niu Jinxing will never dare to step beyond the line.

At this time, in the courtyard of Cining Palace, a girl in white was running inside regardless of the biting cold wind, screaming while running and laughing. The palace maids and eunuchs around him ignored it. There was only a young woman under thirty years old following closely, for fear that the girl would fall.

The woman was naturally Concubine Yuan who was rescued by Li Zicheng because she was killed.

At present, the huge harem, that is, the two of them have a direct relationship with Emperor Chongzhen, and after being placed in the Cining Palace, the two of them naturally depend on each other.

Amba noticed the girl, nothing else, because she often screamed like crazy in the middle of the night these days. At that time, someone seemed to scare her, or she often dreamed of something in her dreams, and she couldn't help but scream.

The scream was extremely shrill. When the sound rang out, people within a mile could hear it with the Cining Palace as the center.

After Amba knew that this person was Princess Changping who was not cut to death by the former Ming emperor, she suddenly felt a little curious and often came to the low wall to watch.

Anba was the one who fought to protect the list in Jinzhou last time. As for why he appeared in Yuezhenbang's army and how he came to this huge capital, it was a long story, so I pressed it first.

As mentioned before, Amba is the youngest son of Harada, a Nahata tribe, one of the three tribes of Ulan Ud Solon. Among the three tribes, Luo Jia tribe is now at its peak in the Daxia Kingdom. Another Tuktana tribe has all moved to Jeju Island and become the owner of Hannashan Ranch on Jeju Island. He is also the manager of the Daxia military horse farm located in Jeju Island. His son Dachun is currently in a high position.

Halada Alin, who only Nahata tribe, is still in the Great Lake area behind the mountains northwest of Chita. Although it completely occupied the territory of the Buryat Irgen tribe and had more than 1,000 subordinates, it is not enough to compare it with the other two.

Therefore, Alin had full expectations for his youngest son, Anba, who was studying in Daxia National School.

Amba did not disappoint his Ama's expectations. After the "list" incident, his status was at the forefront of the gray-clothed guards, currently second only to Wang Wenhui and Gali.

In this way, if others call him "slut" and "dog Tartar", he will naturally not be angry, because in the eyes of the Han people, these names are all for the Mongolians near the side wall. He is a Soren, so what should he do?

Last night, another day that made him feel restless, and the girl once again let out a shrill and creepy scream at night.

That girl was naturally the only living daughter of Emperor Chongzhen, and Zhu Ma, the 14-year-old Princess Changping.

In the past, in the forest tribes centered on Lake Baikal, there were three Khalkha Mongol tribes to the south of the Thirteenth tribes of Soren. They were powerful, so the Soren tribes could only bow down and surrender. To the north, there were savage Soren and Buryat, which was not easy to deal with.

After the Ming Dynasty defeated the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the Fishing Sea, Emperor Chengzu set up thirty-six guards east of Lake Baikal and west of the Ergun River, most of which were the Soren tribes and a few Buryats, with the purpose of suppressing the Mongolian tribes to the south.

Of course, there are at least thirty-six tribes, which can be called the guards. There are countless small tribes under it, but by the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were only thirteen tribes left. Among them, the Ghent Muera tribe moved back from the Nenjiang River Basin. It is conceivable that in just one or two hundred years, how many tribes were annexed and how many tribes perished.

The demise of the tribes in the grassland and forests is all the male members of the Halada family who were killed and the end of women being slaves. Amba was lucky to meet Nikan, a talented man who was born in the world. With the power of the Buryats, his Nahata tribe would disappear into the long river of history at any time.

Therefore, Amba naturally heard the tragic situation brought about by the demise of the tribe from him Ama, and naturally he was full of sympathy for the princess who lost his country in front of him.

On this day, Zhu Ma was running in the yard. She was very awake today because the weather was pretty good today and the wind was much smaller. Of course, even if the wind in early spring in Beijing was "much smaller", it was extremely fierce.

Zhu Ma Shi flew the kite.

It was a sunny day today, no wonder everyone in the yard came out.

With the wind, the phoenix-shaped kite flew higher and higher, and soon it swayed over the entire Forbidden City. As the wind changes in strength and strength, the phoenix kite also goes up and down, east and west, and a thin red line below it - very much like Zhu Mi.

Amba also smiled. In the forest and on the grassland, there was no such thing as flying kites. However, regardless of men and women, they naturally had their own "games" when they were young.

In addition to riding horses, riding reindeer, riding camels, skiing, skating, riding horses, deer pulling, and dog pulling sledges, when you think about it, the most common thing that boys and girls do is singing and dancing.

In the north, the area is extremely vast, with clear layers of lakes, forests, grasslands and wastelands, and extremely sparse populations. A person is in such a wilderness, and there is no one who sings without saying a word. As soon as the crowd gathers, with the guidance of shamans, various dances are produced, some are for sacrifices, but most are spontaneous and passed down from tribes for generations.

Amba wanted to sing a few words on the city wall or dance a dance unique to his Nahata tribe in the Harausz wasteland. If it weren't for Nikan, the boy of the Nahata tribe who developed naturally would have a part even on the city wall at this time. However, after all, he had attended schools at all levels and finally he could hold it back.

Gradually, the wind became smaller and smaller, and the kite began to fall slowly. Not long after, the phoenix kite, which was pasted on the bamboo strips, was drawn with white paper, and the vividly cut phoenix kite fell in front of him!

Amba's heart moved. This time he did not be reserved, but took out a charcoal pen from his arms and drew a person on it, which was the image of his own face.

A big round face, a flat nose, small eyes, and high cheekbones. It is a typical "Tartar" image, but a big mouth smiles, smiling happily and comfortably. There is no trace of worries in this honest face.

When he held the kite, the people in the courtyard of Cining Palace did not dare to say anything and waited tightly. Yes, although Li Zicheng treated them well, he was still living under someone else's roof. In the huge harem, except for Concubine Dou, who had just been named the Imperial Concubine, everyone was still in a panic, let alone a princess from the previous dynasty?

Amba finished drawing soon. After drawing, he waited tightly. When the wind rose again, he threw the kite into the air.

The phoenix kite rose again, and as the wind continued to fly higher and higher, a small dot that appeared and appeared in the sky.

That night, Cining Palace did not let out a terrifying scream for the first time.

That night, Amba slept very soundly.

However, there are only a few people like Zhu Mai who live in the inner palace and are at the mercy of others. Outside the city, another big thing happened on this day, a big thing that could change the situation in the capital.
