Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

Page 636

Xiao Qiu complained, frowned and opened the door, only to find an acquaintance standing outside the door: "Shen Lian? Why are you here?"

Shen Lian smiled at Xiaoqiu, and asked, "Is the boss inside?"

Xiaoqiu looked back and saw that Li Zizi had already tidied up, so she stepped aside: "Miss is here, come in and talk."

Shen Lian entered the room, clasped his fists to Li Zizi and said, "Shen Lian has seen the boss!"

Li Zizi asked curiously: "Didn't you say that you are not sure what will happen after you come back? Didn't you say that you may be sent to other places to hide your name?"

Shen Lian smiled and said: "If you go back to the head of the family, the emperor is merciful. After Shen Lian came back, he went to Beizhen Fusi for a walk, and was not sent to other places.

No, as soon as Shen Lian learned that the head of the family had entered the capital, he immediately rushed over to ask for an audience. "

Although Li Zizi is careless, he can be called as careful as a hair, and his face looks a little ugly: "Are you following me?"

Shen Lian smiled and said: "Don't blame the head of the family. My master told me to see the head of the house in two days, so Shen Lian was sent to inform him first."

Who is Shen Lian's master, Li Zizi naturally knows well, the master of Jin Yiwei will not have anyone except today's emperor, not even a prince and vassal king.

Seeing that the fearless Li Zizi suddenly became nervous, Shen Lian cupped his hands and said, "Master, Shen Lian is leaving now?"

The distraught Li Zizi waved his hand at Shen Lian, signaling that he knew about it, and planned to eat something. This matter was really disturbing.

He wanted to see the emperor so much, and he really had this opportunity, but Li Zizi felt that he was cowardly.

It's just that the meal was still not eaten, and the door of the inn hadn't gone out yet, when Zheng Zhilong looked for him with a dark face: "The British Duke has gone."

Li Zizi was stupefied, the Duke of England died as soon as he died, and there are so many Dukes in Ming Dynasty, how could he be the only one missing?

Seeing Li Zizi's appearance, Zheng Zhilong explained: "Your Majesty has an order. Apart from being on duty, all military attaches in the capital must go to the British government to express their condolences, even the eldest prince will go."

Hearing the words that the eldest prince would also go, Li Zizi finally realized the importance of the Duke of England—in the absence of a royal heir, the eldest prince was born with an aura, which belonged to the kind of aura that attracted the attention of the whole world.

Now that even the eldest prince who is a few years old is sent to the mansion to express his condolences, one can imagine the importance of the British Duke in the emperor's heart.

Seeing Li Zizi's dazed expression, Zheng Zhilong went on to say, "Once the British Lord goes, I don't know how many incidents will happen at the Commander's Mansion of the Five Armies, and I don't know if it will affect my actions in Majapahit. .”

Li Zizi shook his head and said: "Probably not. I don't know what will happen to the Mansion of the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army. Tell the emperor."

Zheng Zhilong's concern was chaotic, seeing Li Zizi's words, he felt relieved, and said goodbye to Li Zizi, "Since that's the case, Zheng will go back to the camp first, and the head of Li's family should be more careful in Beijing."

In fact, on the second day, Li Zizi really saw the impact of the British Duke's death on Daming.

The Megava brought by Zheng Zhilong and himself along the way did not have any legendary gameplay such as conferring a return to his fate, but was directly headed by the owl, and the head was sent to the British government as a sacrifice, and the notice was already plastered. After leaving the imperial city, it is estimated that the world will know it in a short time.

But at this time, Emperor Chongzhen was very troubled.

The impact of Zhang Weixian's death was really too great. I don't know how many veterans in the court began to think of retiring and returning to their hometowns, except for a small part who really had great confidence in their own bodies.

Although the memorials of these people have not yet been handed over, according to the news from the Jinyiwei newspaper, it is estimated that it will be soon.

After thinking about it, Emperor Chongzhen simply ordered: "The supervisor of ceremonies drafted an edict, ordered Shen Hao to take over Shi Fenglai's position as governor of Kyushu Island, called Shi Feng to return to Beijing to report on his duties, ordered Sun Chengzong to return to Beijing to report on his duties, and ordered Li Yan to take over as governor of Java Island. Zhu Chunchen took over as the Grand Governor of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion, and ordered Lu Xiangsheng to take over as the Left Commander of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion."

Wang Chengen, who had been bowing and waiting for Emperor Chongzhen's order, bowed and responded, and then asked: "My lord, do you want your servant to accompany the eldest prince to the matter of the British government?"

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, and ordered: "That's fine, you can go with me. Draft an imperial edict to pursue the British Duke Zhang Weixian as King of Yingyuan County, and add Tai Tuo."

Wang Chengen hesitated and said: "My lord, you can be named the county king, right?"

Shaking his head, Emperor Chongzhen said, "Just do what I want."

If Zhang Weixian is still alive, it is naturally inappropriate to be named the county king, but after his death, there is no problem in posthumously being named the county king. After all, this title is not hereditary.

In other words, Zhang Zhiji will still be the Duke of England in the future, not the king of Yingyuan County. If he dies, he can be called a little prince in private.

However, according to Zhang Zhiji's dog temper, he would smile happily when he was called Lord Hou, but his face would be full of frost when he was called "little prince". If someone dared to call him "little prince", Zhang Zhiji would probably be the first Flip.

After Wang Chengen withdrew, Emperor Chongzhen came to the Wanguo Kanyu Map in the main hall and looked up.

The territory of Daming on the map is already big enough, far from being comparable to the big rooster in later generations. At least the area of ​​Nurgan Dusi can be as large as one-third of a big rooster.

On the other side of Mongolia, with the attachment of guys like Xia Erzhe, Bu Shitu, and Zhuoli Ketuhan, the border line was directly pushed northward by a large amount.

The rest are only the Wa Kingdom in the east, some monkeys in Southeast Asia, the barbarians in the west, and Maozi in the north.

After sighing, Emperor Chongzhen said to himself: "I don't know if I will be able to accomplish the great cause of unifying the world in my lifetime?"

Fang Zhenghua, who had been following Emperor Chongzhen, moved his lips, but he still didn't speak.

Fang Zhenghua knew why the Emperor Chongzhen suddenly made such an exclamation. It was because the death of the British Duke Zhang Weixian touched the emperor too much.

The lights of Qianqing Palace remained on all night.

Shi Fenglai, who was far away in the country of Wo, stared at Li Yan with a smile on his face, and said, "This country of Wo, I guess it's been a few years, old man Zhang died, it's a good death!"

Li Yan looked at Shi Fenglai in bewilderment.

Even if you don't mention the importance of British Duke to Daming, just from the relationship between the two families, your master shouldn't come up with this sentence, right?

The relationship between my master and the British Duke Zhang Weixian has always been decent, but now he says that the British Duke is a good old man?

Shi Fenglai said with a smile: "Everyone is mortal, but sooner or later, who can escape? Even as a teacher, he doesn't know when he will die.

It's just that His Majesty will definitely have a sense of urgency in his heart after the death of the British Duke, and he will attack the Wa Kingdom in advance. "

Li Yan clasped his hands and said: "The student is stupid, please forgive me? Your Majesty is now in the prime of life, I'm afraid it may not be as Master expected?"

Shi Fenglai said with a smile: "Then let me ask you, how long has it been since His Majesty ascended the throne?"

Li Yan clasped his hands and said, "From the seventh year of Tianqi to the ninth year of Chongzhen, it has been ten years."

Shi Fenglai nodded and said: "That's right, ten years, how many ten years are there in one's life? Your Majesty has great talents and plans. He wants to realize what Emperor Taizu Gao said. Wherever the sun and the moon go, it's all Da Ming's rhetoric. How can we do it without urgency?"

Li Yan retorted: "If Your Majesty is too hasty, the events of the former Sui Dynasty are not far away, and may there be disasters?"

Shi Fenglai shook his head and said: "No. You and I know well what happened in the Sui Dynasty, but what His Majesty is doing now is quite like the Emperor Qin devouring the six kingdoms.

Everyone despises death and emphasizes military merits. This is why the strong Qin pacified the world.Now that I am Ming, it is His Majesty who values ​​military merit, and the people also value it.

What's more, unlike Emperor Qin, I, Emperor Ming, focus on the world. The whole world is not limited to the mere land of the six kingdoms?

If there are other places to fight after the Six Kingdoms, and the military system does not collapse, how can Qin be destroyed?

Furthermore, my Emperor Ming pays more attention to the people, which is different from Qiang Qin. If the people's hearts want it, there will be no chaos in the Ming Dynasty, so naturally it doesn't matter. "

However, Li Yan asked curiously: "Then why did the master say that His Majesty will take the Wa Kingdom first? Instead of the Nanyang countries?"

Shi Fenglai said with a smile: "It's very simple, fame and fortune."
