Become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen!

Chapter 517 You Must Be Loyal

"Do you think we can see the prince?"

"Meet the prince? What the hell are you thinking? What kind of person is Qiantose?"

The merchant felt that he was in the territory of the "eunuch party", and he yelled at Chitose without restraint, making the surroundings silent for a moment, but then, everyone laughed and laughed twice and it passed.

early.

Also passed.

What happened to the last thousand-year-old, and the fate of the eunuchs in the Chongzhen Dynasty after Wang Yan was suppressed and liquidated, the world is vividly aware of it. It was just a few years ago that the Longwu Dynasty was newly established, and the "eunuchs" were still very powerful. Political attacks.

Fortunately, the current Wang Gonggong is different from the previous Wei Gonggong.

The power is in the hands, the foundation is deep.

Unshakable.

Nowadays, it is even more advocated to build large-scale sea-going ships and revitalize maritime affairs.

Although the official side turned a deaf ear to the sea ban advocated by Daming, it was a real disorder.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that in recent years, His Majesty Longwu has made a lot of money from the sugar industry, and has opened an additional seaport for export. The local area also has a lot of sugar cane planting industries due to the demand of the sugar factory.

All the officials shouted something to compete with the people for profit, using land and sugar cane is corrupting farming and mulberry.

But he coveted the profit of sugar.

After several years of poaching corners, they finally got out the sugar share of the Shunwu Sugar Factory. Recently, it was said that the sugar manufacturing technology was also leaked.

But now, it is said that the emperor got the sweetness of maritime trade through sugar, and used Wang Chengen's hand to promote maritime affairs.

Therefore, the merchants who came here thought that the Nanyang company must have a connection with the emperor.

Some didn't even ask what they were doing.

So he rushed over in a hurry, and he had to participate in whatever he said.

"Then what is Wang Xi, Nanyang Company, doing now?"

"Fundraising to build a ship."

"This king sees me as forbidden in Daming Sea! Privately built sea ships! It must be for sneaking pirates and privately selling forbidden items!"

When the scholars outside heard the news, they opened their mouths to talk nonsense.

But in private, he was clever, but he was thinking about whether to let his family participate.

Raising funds to supervise the building of sea-going ships, merchants bought ship stocks, and also entered the booklet of Nanyang Company, and this book finally fell into the hands of Emperor Longwu Zhu Yujian.

What kind of ancestral law is Daming Haiban?
The courtiers might still yell at this statement twice.

But as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, even Chongzhen knew that this method could be changed if he wanted to. He changed it many times from Hongwu to Chongzhen.

Regardless of the sea environment, the chain of interests in maritime trade, and the unshakable pirate family, the influence of people and things from outside the sea on Daming's interior, this sea ban can be changed as soon as it is said.

"Your Majesty, after purchasing the shipyard in Fuzhou, we will renovate the existing treasure ships, which are no different from the warships used by the savages. There are many merchant ships, and it will take less than half a year to build one that is more than twice the size of the savages to protect the sea. And foreign trade routes are not a problem at all.”

Zhu Yujian nodded, and put down the brochure: "I know you have thought about building warships for the purpose of protecting merchant ships, but the Zheng family is not happy with the number of warships, and the sugar factory will not be able to sell sugar to North Korea and Japan. Now we use merchant ships as an excuse to build warships, so we must be fast! We can suppress all the pirates on the Daming Sea!"

He spoke passionately, but then Zhu Yujian changed the subject: "However, the master craftsman of the treasure shipyard lost and leaked the blueprints of my Ming treasure ship to the savages. This must never happen again."

"The minister's dereliction of duty, and the death of the minister is hard to escape the blame. I only hope that in the future, the ships sent by the Nanyang Company will be powerful in the north and south overseas, and I will raise the prestige of the Ming Dynasty and live up to your majesty's kindness."

Wang Chengen was ecstatic in his heart, and kowtowed with joy on his face like the rest of his life after a catastrophe.

Zhu Yujian stared at him, really not sure.

Not sure how loyal Wang Chengen is.

After all, the name of the eunuch party hurts his ears.

The Eunuch Party threatens the imperial power to control the government, it is not just a rhetoric used by Donglin to attack dissidents, it is real.

The eunuch should definitely be killed.

But now, under the pressure of interests and the situation, Zhu Yujian had to try again.

The son didn't have any accidents this time, and he wasn't even frightened. He also checked whether the lecturer was injured in a decent manner, which attracted everyone's praise, but this kind of thing must not happen again.

What if Zhu Yujian is the one who is assassinated next time?
Loyal eunuchs, then they cannot be generalized with previous eunuchs.

And Wang Cheng'en's previous performance can be seen in his eyes. Apart from being ambiguous with the savages, he is also responsible for the savages' force to suppress the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty and trouble the north. In other respects, he can be regarded as a first-class virtuous minister and official .

Gao Jie got into the prison car.

His nephew Li Benshen was with him outside, and the two of them didn't speak on the way, so they were sent to the capital by the black flag soldiers.

Only when they arrived at the capital, the people along the way watched. Because Gao Jie had raided Hebei, he brought in rotten vegetables and leaves. Fortunately, the people's lives were not good, so there were no rotten eggs.

Li Benshen stepped forward and scolded twice, but was stopped by Gao Jie.

When Li Ben rushed back to the prison car with tears in his eyes, he only heard Gao Jie say that since he voted clear, he would be effective, and it would be best if he could keep those soldiers who accompanied him to the end of the battle.

Then he was silent again.

But right.

After entering the capital, the two of them were notified by the sticky pole that they had told the Ming prince Zhu Cihong about them, and it was estimated that they would be summoned after a while so that they could prepare.

The two looked at each other for a moment.

"My lord, I, I will wait for you to change your clothes."

The sticks left the clothes to be worn when meeting the prince. Li Benshen wanted to help Gao Jie wear them, but Gao Jie slapped him on the hand and tore the clothes.

"I am a Ming minister, you are a Qing minister, not a family."

After all, Gao Jie was completely dignified, dressed alone and didn't cut his beard and hair, which made him feel even more vicissitudes.

Obviously some decent but impassioned meaning to die, but unfortunately not very educated, otherwise I am afraid that I will have to compose a desperate poem like Guo Weijing.

Gao Jie was naturally somewhat regretful.

So when he was brought into the Imperial City and entered the Hall of Martial Arts, he was obviously stunned when he saw Guo Weijing coming to greet him.

The new army was defeated, and the Ming Dynasty believed that Guo Weijing was killed in battle with a high probability, and had already started preparing for the funeral. After all, they said that he was shot by a musket and bled profusely. to come back.

But even if he didn't die, he couldn't come to greet him with a smile in this strange wheeled cart?
"General Gao doesn't need to be shocked, it's inevitable, but the old man is indeed here to welcome His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness was afraid that the general would do something embarrassing, so he asked the old man to share. However, the old man's injury has not healed. If you can’t stand up and salute, you still look at Haihan.”

After all, Guo Weijing waved his hand, and the maid pushing the cart behind also turned the cart slightly: "General, please follow me first, Li Benshen? Wait outside first."

Li Benshen didn't see a good face left and right.

My heart is also full of doubts.

He and Gao Jie have both seen Guo Wei, he is very upright, involved in military affairs, the goal is to regain the capital and the Northern Expedition to exterminate captives, bandits, and savages. It didn't end well, and even applauded.

Now it seems like a different person.

Gao Jie also felt something was wrong.

Although he hated the fact that his nephew had betrayed him, he turned his head and looked at Li Benshen.

After a little urging by Guo Wei, he followed.

Li Benshen looked at Gao Jie's back with some worries, but when he turned his head, he caught a glimpse of someone staring at him.

Mrs. Lao is about to leave the capital and return to Yulin.

After delivering the business, I saw this scene when I came out.

Seeing the two bright generals being brought into the back of the palace, they couldn't help showing sympathy and deep sorrow in their eyes.
