The news that Xu Huizu's entire army was wiped out throughout Nanjing, causing panic among the people in Nanjing, because so far, no one could stop Zhu Di. The reason why Zhu Di did not attack was definitely that he had made any plans and wanted to destroy Nanjing City...

So more and more people were panicked and wanted to escape from Nanjing and find a safe place.

However, since Yun Zichen returned, the martial law in Nanjing was strictly prohibited from entering and leaving, for fear that Zhu Di's spies would sneak in.

Therefore, the people had to find a hiding place and hide all the valuable things in each family, so as not to snatch Zhu Di's army away.

Hu Ye had known that Zhu Di would win for a long time, but he didn't expect that he would win so thoroughly that he wiped out Xu Huizu's 100,000 men, and he lost less than 10,000 men. What's more important is that Zhu Di actually severely damaged Yun Zichen's army, leaving only 20,000 people left and fled back.

When Hu Ye learned that Zhu Di had exploded the Bian River embankment, he suddenly felt that Zhu Di was like Zhu Di in history, ruthless and the Bian River broke the Bian River embankment, and the people nearby suffered a lot. However, in order to eliminate Yun Zichen's army, Zhu Di could not care about so many. In this regard, Zhu Di was even better than Yun Zichen.

Now no one can stop Zhu Di, so it is only a matter of time before Zhu Di comes to attack Nanjing City. The people are busy fleeing, but Hu Ye is not panicked. Although Zhu Di listed himself as the top treacherous minister at the beginning of the rebellion, Hu Ye is not afraid. What else can Zhu Di do to him after entering the city? Isn’t this undercover agent in vain?

The people in the academy were also a little panicked. After all, many of them came from other places, and many of them had their hometowns in the war zone. They were worried over the years, fearing that the war would destroy their hometowns.

Now that Zhu Di is about to call, they are also a little at a loss. What Li Yuanshan has given them is feelings and will join the struggle at this time. But people like Xu Huizu and Yun Zichen are defeated by Zhu Di, what can they do?

The master guarding the city is Yun Zichen. Because Zhu Yunwen could no longer find anyone to defend the city, the group of civil servants had already shrunk into a group, and the generals were scared by Zhu Di. Some people even asked Zhu Yunwen to seek peace and meet Zhu Di's request.

After all, the banner Zhu Di raised was to kill Qi Huang and clear the emperor. Now, as long as Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng are handed over, wouldn’t Zhu Di retreat?

This suggestion was approved by many people. Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng were so scared that they did not dare to go to court, and they were afraid that the officials would capture them and send them out of the city.

Zhu Yunwen agreed to seek peace, but he would not hand over Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng, so he sent someone to negotiate with Zhu Di.

But who is Zhu Di? He has been planning for many years and has been working hard for four years. How could he withdraw his troops after killing Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng? So he resolutely rejected Zhu Yunwen's proposal, and even Zhu Yunwen's claim to rule according to the Yangtze River was rejected by Zhu Di. What he wanted was the whole world!

At this time, Xu Huizu was already awake. When he knew that he was the only one remaining in the army of 100,000, he immediately thought of suicide, but was stopped by Zhu Gaoxu and others. He shouted at him one by one, making Xu Huizu soften his heart. These are the children he had held. His family also had his wife and children. Did he really die like this?

Finally, Zhu Di also came to see his brother-in-law, thinking that his brother-in-law was a bloody person. Xu Nuo would never touch a single hair of his hair.

However, Xu Huizu was an old general after all, and all the 100,000 troops he led were heroic sacrifices. As the head coach, how could he live alone? So on a month-long night, Xu Huizu ended his life with a long sword. As for his wife and children, he had left a letter. I believe his sister would not let his relatives die.

Time passed quickly, and June was already coming. This was the day when Zhu Di ordered an attack on Peiping. Nearly 70,000 troops began to walk out of Lingbi and head towards Nanjing in a mighty manner.

The news spread very quickly. After hearing the news, the vassal kings from all over the country also sent troops to kill the treacherous ministers, so as to show Zhu Di that they were on the same front with Zhu Di.

But their army walked very slowly. After Zhu Di's army had surrounded Nanjing City, their army set out dozens of miles, probably comparable to the speed of the snail.

Zhu Yunwen's face looked ugly. Unexpectedly, those princes not only did not advance to the army to help the king, but instead cheered on the fire and killed the traitorous ministers.

"Your Majesty, please order commanders from all over the country to enter Beijing. They are our last hope." Qi Tai began to advise Zhu Yunwen. Now that Zhu Di's army has just surrounded Nanjing, their people can still run out. If Zhu Di completely encircled Nanjing, he would not be able to wear it even if he wanted to send a message.

"Commander?"

Zhu Yunwen smiled helplessly. He had been to the commanders of the coastal areas, and they were all flattering people, even better than those vassal kings. The only hope to save him was the commander of Guangdong. However, Guangdong was too far away. When the messenger came over and the army from Guangdong came, the daylily was cold.

So what can be used now is only the 20,000 troops brought back by Yun Zichen, and the 10,000 imperial guards left before.

However, what is even more terrible is that there are soldiers but no generals. As long as there are so many city gates in Nanjing, one of them will be a disaster.

Therefore, Zhu Yunwen had to use all prestigious people to defend the city. For example, Li Jinglong, although he was a defeated general, eventually led his troops to fight, so he became the goalkeeper of Jinchuan Gate. With him, the Gu King imprisoned in Nanjing.

However, it was this helpless decision that made all the defenses under Yun Zichen make in vain, and all Zhu Yunwen's efforts turn into nothing.

On June 13, Zhu Di led his army to Nanjing and surrounded Nanjing. Li Jinglong, who had just been appointed, discussed with King Gu, and directly opened the Jinchuan Gate and put Zhu Di's army into Nanjing.

One door is broken, the door is broken!

The entire Nanjing city was broken like this. Fortunately, Zhu Di's army did not disturb the people, but just occupied the gate of Nanjing and headed towards the Forbidden City.

The city was broken so quickly that no one expected that even Zhu Di would not have thought that it would be so relaxed.

When Zhu Yunwen heard the news, he wanted to tear Li Jinglong out of his body. When Yun Zichen heard the news, he drew out his long sword and wanted to chop Li Jinglong into two pieces.

However, everything has been forgotten. Now there are only three thousand men guarding the Forbidden City. Once the city is broken, they will be in danger.

The people in the academy gathered together and formed a guard team to guard the gate of Qingtian Street, so that the army could not rush into the academy.

But they would not find that there was one missing among the teachers in the academy, and that was an old man.

The old man was naturally Ruan An. He knew that the moment the city of Nanjing was broken, he had already known that Zhu Yunwen's end had arrived. At this time, the secret passage that Hu Ye conspired with him played a role.

So he came to the underground passage alone, passed the sewer system in Nanjing, entered the palace, and found Zhu Yunwen.

At this time, Zhu Yunwen was discussing countermeasures with Yun Zichen, but was shocked when he saw Ruan An appear in the palace.

Zhu Yunwen hasn't seen Ruan An for many years, and now he is really surprised.

"Eunuch Ruan, how did you come in? Didn't Zhu Di's army surround the Forbidden City? " Zhu Yunwen asked curiously.

Yun Zichen pulled out his sword directly and yelled at Ruan An's throat, "Hmph! I think you are Zhu Di's spy! Hu Ye was recommended to the late emperor back then, so good now! Nanjing has fallen. Did you collude with Zhu Di back then? Now we are coming to persuade us to surrender!"

Ruan An used his hand to push away Yun Zichen's sword and murmured, "General Yun, if I had collusion with Zhu Di, do you think this war can last for four years?"

"Then what are you doing when you come in!" Yun Zichen said relentlessly.

"I will fulfill my promise to the former emperor and prevent the emperor and the King of Yan from killing each other." Ruan An said loudly.

"A promise to the late emperor?" Yun Zichen heard that Ruan An didn't seem to be lying, so he took the sword back.

"Emperor, before his death, the former emperor once instructed me that no matter what happens in the future, the emperor and the King of Yan will not be allowed to kill each other. Now that the King of Yan is at the city, the emperor is already in danger, so please leave the secret passage. If you are guarding the Forbidden City, you will only burn both jade and stones." Ruan An bowed to Zhu Yunwen and murmured.

"Secret Way? Why don't I know there is a secret way in the palace?" Zhu Yunwen asked with his eyes flashing.

"Back to the emperor, this is dug out by Hu Ye and I over the past two years, and it is on the underground road." Ruan An replied.

"Hu Ye?" Zhu Yunwen smiled indifferently after hearing this. It turned out that all this could not be separated from Hu Ye.

"It's ridiculous! I always thought I could surrender Hu Ye for my use, but I didn't expect that I would have to rely on him to save my life in the end. It's such a big joke." Zhu Yunwen sighed to the sky.

"General Yun, this is the only way out for the emperor. You can take the emperor away quickly. If it is too late, it will be too late." Ruan An knew that Zhu Yunwen would not leave now, so he had to let Yun Zichen take him away.

Yun Zichen's face showed a trace of confusion. He said that he would apologize for his death and pay tribute to the soldiers who died because of him, but now he has a more important task to escort Zhu Yunwen out.

"Your Majesty! Come with me, the green mountains are there, and you are not afraid of burning firewood!" Yun Zichen finally made up his mind to take Zhu Yunwen away.

"Grandpa Emperor, is this the country you left for me? Is this the minister you left for me? Is this the uncle you left for me to guard the border?" Zhu Yunwen closed his eyes, his face full of grief. Is this emperor who has been the four years finally over?

"General Yun, take the emperor away quickly and go to the Qinhuai River through the secret passage behind. There is a boat I parked there on it. Go as far as you can!" Ruan An said hurriedly.

"What should I do if Zhu Di catches up?" Yun Zichen asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, I will burn the palace with a torch, leaving a few corpses behind." Ruan An replied.

Yun Zichen looked at Ruan An, and then took Zhu Yunwen, who was a little dull, into the secret passage.

When Ruan An saw Yun Zichen bringing Zhu Yunwen into the secret passage, he used a sledgehammer to smash the secret passage entrance, and then burned the palace with a fire!
