How could Shi Kefa, who was stubborn, let Ma Shiying succeed in his delayed military strategy? He bowed to Zhu Yousong and said, "If Your Majesty cannot return to the throne and the Grand Principal, I will never get up if I kneel down here!"

"I will never get up here if I kneel down and die!" Lu Zhenfei, Liu Zongzhou, Chen Yujie, Chen Zilong, Fang Yizhi and other civil servants of the Donglin Party bowed and kowtowed to Zhu Yousong three times and nine times, and said in unison.

Zhu Yousong was very happy in his heart: These Donglin Party made my father unable to become emperor back then, otherwise there would be so many things? Now that I have finally taken the throne, they still have to make trouble for me, which is really hateful! But Zhu Yousong did not dare to be tough, and his power was not great enough to put all these Donglin Party officials in the heavenly prison at a command. So Zhu Yousong winked at Ma Shiying and asked Ma Shiying to rescue him.

Ma Shiying hurriedly gave Ruan Dacheng a secret look. Ruan Dacheng knelt knowingly and said, "Your Majesty is the descendant of the Wanli Emperor, who is the orthodox of the Ming Dynasty. Although Zhu Cixuan is also orthodox, the prince has been unable to come to Nanjing since the capital fell, and the country cannot be without a king for a day. My ministers and others follow Yu Shaobao back then to establish a new king to save our Ming Dynasty. Since Your Majesty has ascended the throne, how can you easily give up the throne? If many years later, Zhu Cixuan imitates the change of Yingzong's seizure, even if I am torn to pieces, I will keep my innocence!"

Ruan Dacheng spoke with great righteousness and compared himself to Yu Qian and Yu Shaobao. Zhu Yousong felt moved, and his fat face was a little wet in his small eyes.

Zhang Youyu, Xu Wenjue, Zhao Zhilong and Zhang Guobi, who supported Zhu Yousong to ascend the throne at that time, also knelt down one after another: "Even if I am broken into pieces, I will still protect Your Majesty!"

In the court, the officials who supported Zhu Yousong and Zhu Cixuan were in stalemate. They could not decide the outcome for a while. Zhu Yousong had no choice. He was obese and sat on the dragon throne for a long time. He was already sweating profusely. He sat there upright, feeling his back and legs hurt. He wanted to leave the court early, go back to take a rest, get up and have fun. But in this situation, he did not dare to announce his retreat, and could only look at Ma Shiying with eyes, hoping that Ma Shiying could think of a solution.

Ma Shiying had no choice but to be tough: "Where is the general of the Han Dynasty!"

A group of Jinyiwei, standing behind the court officer, walked forward: "I am humble!"

"Take them off and give them gifts out of the palace!" Ma Shiying pointed to the small officials behind the Donglin Party. He did not dare to let those big bosses like Shi Kefa, so he could only attack those small officials in the capital such as the seventh-rank censor. At present, the people on both sides were kneeling all over the ground, evenly matched. As long as a group of small officials such as Chen Yujie, Chen Zilong, Fang Yizhi were forced to drive out of the palace, there would naturally be fewer people on the Donglin Party. In this way, Ma Shiying had more people on the side, and he would have the upper hand in momentum.

A group of Jinyiwei from the palace walked forward and forced Chen Zilong and others to drag.

"Cast dog! Let go!" Chen Zilong, who was held up by someone, roared desperately, but he was a weak scholar, how could he break free? The four Jinyiwei raised their arms, raised their feet, and lifted Chen Zilong up and threw them out of the palace.

Fang Yizhi still had some martial arts skills. He punched two Jinyiwei, but then the Jinyiwei hit Fang Yizhi's leg with a heavy stick and knocked him to the ground. Then several Jinyiwei surrounded him and put Fang Yizhi up and threw him out of the palace.

In a blink of an eye, a group of small officials of the Donglin Party were all dispersed. Qian Qianyi, who was greedy and afraid of death, stood up and withdrew from the ranks of persuasion. In the square in front of Fengtian Palace, only Shi Kefa, Liu Zongzhou, Lu Zhenfei and other few officials were left on the Donglin Party, while the group of people opposite Ma Shiying knelt all over the ground.

"If you have a copy, you will leave the court without any trouble!" A eunuch shouted in a sharp voice.

Zhu Yousong took the opportunity to stand up, withdrew with the crowd of eunuchs, leaving behind Shi Kefa and other civil servants of the Donglin Party, and handed over to Ma Shiying and others to deal with.

Shi Kefa, Liu Zongzhou, Lu Zhenfei and others still kneeled down and couldn't stand up, especially the stubborn Shi Kefa. He vowed that if Zhu Yousong did not agree, he would kneel to death in front of Fengtian Palace!

Zhu Yousong didn't care about that much. As long as Ma Shiying and others restrained Shi Kefa and others, he would give it up first when he went back. Zhu Yousong didn't expect that the throne was high above his throne. Sitting on it allows you to see the world from a bird's eye, but it was not so comfortable to sit in this position. When he was the prince of Fu, he drank and had fun every day until midnight, and he slept until noon during the day before he got up. After becoming the emperor, he still couldn't change this habit, but when he became the emperor, he had to go to bed early in the morning, but Zhu Yousong couldn't go to bed early at night. Even if he lay down, he tossed and turned for a long time before he could fall asleep. Naturally, he did not have enough sleep in the morning, so he had to go back to make up for his sleep every time after the morning court.

Zhu Yousong returned to the harem and fell asleep at the end. But he had just fallen asleep, but he heard the sound of Dengwen drums, which woke him up from his sleep.

"Who is beating the drum?" Zhu Yousong asked with a sleepy eyes open.

A close-fitting eunuch immediately ran out to ask. After a while, the eunuch ran back and reported: "Emperor, Master, something is wrong! There are many scholars outside the palace and are lying outside Hongwu Gate!"

Now Zhu Yousong's pajamas were gone, and he quickly got up. He put on a red dragon cannon, put on a black gold-wire-winged crown, and surrounded by a group of eunuchs and guards, walked towards Hongwu Gate. When passing by Fengtian Palace Square, Zhu Yousong saw from a distance that the Donglin Party members were still kneeling in the square in front of Fengtian Palace. He did not dare to pass through the square, so he went out from the side Dongjiao Gate, detoured across the Wulong Bridge, and left the Meridian Gate.

I climbed to Hongwu Gate and saw that the square in front of Hongwu Gate had already been covered with blue color. Countless scholars lay on the ground and cried bitterly. Several scholars in the leaders shouted loudly: "Please guarantee the prince to come to Beijing, King Fu abdicated and the prince, and give me the orthodox of the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Yousong did not have the courage to come down from the city tower to face these scholars. He could only ask someone to go down the city tower from behind to find Ma Shiying to deal with these scholars whom he hated.

Ma Shiying was not outside the palace, but dealt with Shi Kefa and others in front of Fengtian Palace. The little eunuch soon found Ma Shiying.

In fact, Ma Shiying also heard the sound of Dengwen drums, but he was dragged by Shi Kefa and the others and could not get out. He heard from the little eunuch that the emperor had already gone to Hongwu Gate, Ma Shiying did not dare to neglect and hurried to Hongwu Gate.

"Your Majesty, I'm late!" Ma Shiying knelt in front of Zhu Yousong and bowed, "These scholars are so outrageous, they threaten Your Majesty so much!"

"Yaocao, according to you, do you need to send out the Jinyiwei to drive away the scholars?" Zhu Yousong asked.

"The expelling of the scholars with the Jinyiwei is afraid of causing riots. Now that things have come, we can only mobilize troops to Beijing and take down Shi Kefa and others. A group of Donglin Party members have no leader and will disperse on their own." Ma Shiying suggested.

"Who will be transferred to Beijing?" Zhu Yousong asked.

"Gao Jie!" Ma Shiying said two words, "Your Majesty first delays the military strategy, and I will let Gao Jie lead his army into the capital."

Zhu Yousong nodded, poked his head out of the city gate tower, and shouted to the scholars who were buried in front of Hongwu Gate: "My scholars, you don't need to worry. I am just about to send someone to take the prince into the capital. After the prince comes to the capital, I will abdicate and the prince immediately! Please come back first."

However, it is obvious that the scholars were unwilling to let Zhu Yousong's delayed military strategy succeed like this. Not only did they not stop hiding the custody, but many scholars also rushed to the Confucian Temple by the Qinhuai River to cry.
