Chapter 584: The Truth
The Battle of Zhili actually ended on the 20th day of the first lunar month of the seventh year of Yongle (the second year of Hongxi). It only took one morning for the Han army to defeat the main force of the official army from the front, but it was even more time-consuming to pursue the army northward and accept the defeat.
At noon on the 21st of the first lunar month, Zhu Gaoxu led the front army with tens of thousands of cavalry and arrived outside the Fengtai Gate of the capital. The Chinese army divided its troops and went to various city gates of the capital. Except for the south city gate, only two hundred households teams were mobilized at each other gate; the purpose was to control the entry and exit of people in the outer city of the capital.

"The most important thing for you now is to ascend the throne as soon as possible!"It is not strange for anyone to say this sentence, but it was precisely the current Ming Emperor Gao Chi who said it first.

After a short while, he understood that his elder brother must have something to ask for!No wonder Gao Chi remained relatively calm after the palace was breached. That was because there was still something unfinished in his mind, but he still had some hope; Gao Chi wanted to do his best to complete this matter.Therefore, Gao Chi's expression was very pale, but his eyes were very forbearing; he temporarily controlled all the emotions that were about to get out of control.

He sat at the desk, his movements calm and steady, without any sense of panic, and he was silently and quickly browsing the secret scroll that Xue Yan had brought.After a while, Zhu Gaoxu looked up at Xue Yan and said calmly, "Mr. Xue, please sit down."Xue Yan, w

The Chang'an Left Gate in the east was shining with the afterglow of the setting sun, which was much brighter than the Chang'an Right Gate in the west.
