Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 158 You know rebellion the most, you guys want to rebel through the shell! (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)
"Your Majesty, Geng Jingzhong, Fan Chengmo, Sai Baili, Tuer Shenbo and others jointly recommended a maritime merchant named Chen Fufu, saying that he was the leader of the Ruian battle in western Zhejiang. The first contribution. Your Majesty, I feel that this sea merchant is a talent and can be used by the court, which is really rare."

"Your Majesty, it is stated in the inscription that this Fujian sea merchant wholeheartedly served the court. First, he funded and recruited a group of brave sea townspeople, and then offered a strategy of forming camps and fighting idle battles. He followed every step of the way and encircled the fortress. Step by step, Oboi and Wu Sanwei were pushed to the surrounding area of ​​Rui'an County, and finally the forts and fortresses were built outside Rui'an City, so that Aoboi and Wu Sanwei could not move. Liu Liu escaped from the sea."

Both Suo'etu and Mingzhu now form their own party. Although they agree with Kangxi on major issues, they often conflict on minor issues, and they rarely recommend a sea merchant unanimously like they do now.

After all, the Qing Dynasty was engaged in coastal relocation. In theory, there were no maritime merchants, only pirates, pirates, and pirates!
Two grand scholars recommended a pirate merchant together. How much bribe did Chen Fufu give?

Kangxi frowned, a little unhappy: "Suo'etu, Mingzhu, you admire this Chen Fufu so much, do you know him?"

Suo'etu and Mingzhu actually nodded together.

"Your majesty is wise, the slaves do know him."

"Your Majesty, this servant also knows this Chen Fufu."

Kangxi froze for a moment, and looked at the two people in front of him suspiciously. Although the Qing Dynasty can now sell officials and nobles, it is my business, and how much money did you two take from that profiteer surnamed Chen?
After receiving such a glance from Kangxi, Suo'etu and Mingzhu also knew that the little emperor had misunderstood.The two of them confiscated Chen Fufu's money, but a few paintings by Tang Bohu were fakes and worthless.

Uncle Fu took the big head!
Mingzhu hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, you have actually seen this Chen Fufu before. He first came to Beijing as the housekeeper of Cheng Enbo Zhou Quanbin, and later got on the line of Geng Jingzhong and Geng Juzhong brothers. Later, He made friends with King Yu again. When the Dongtangzi Hutong at the sticky pole was opened, he made an offering of the eighth grade, so he has long been an official of the imperial court."

Suo'etu added: "Your Majesty, this Chen Fufu is indeed a long-sleeved businessman who is good at dancing. Of course he is very good at making money. He not only made friends with King Yu and Prince Jingnan, but also made friends with Wang Zhongxiao, Yang Qilong, Yuan Linjing and others, as well as others. The businessmen in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are also very good.”

It seems that there is such a person, Kangxi thinks carefully, and has a little impression.It seems that when I went to Bada Hutong next to Dashilan for a private visit, I met a Fujian scholar next to Fuquan, and his name was Chen Fufu.
Kangxi finally understood what was going on, so he didn't say anything more.

Next, he took the title book from Suo'etu and began to read it carefully.

After reading it, Kangxi frowned again: "Geng Jingzhong, Fan Chengmo, Sai Baili and Tuer Shenbo jointly recommended this Chen Fufu as the commander-in-chief of the naval aid town and said that as long as I seal Chen Fufu, he can Go out to recruit pirates from Southeast Sea and Dayuan Island who are not all the way to grab the business of the Zheng family. Is this to suppress the bandits, or is it to do business?"

Mingzhu said: "The servant feels that suppressing thieves and doing business can also be combined into one."

"Really?" Kangxi didn't quite understand, "How do you say that?"

Mingzhu explained: "Your Majesty, think about it, the Zheng pirates were able to occupy Dayuan Island and run rampant in the open sea for so many years, it is not because of the profits from coastal smuggling, or from the trade in Japan and Southeast Asia. Profit? If the Zheng family’s business is taken away by the imperial government’s aid to suppress the navy town, wouldn’t the Zheng pirates have no money? If they have no money, they will no longer be arrogant!”

Suo'etu added: "Your Majesty, in fact, the coastal relocation that the imperial court is currently implementing is also to cut off the trade, so that the Zheng pirates can't continue to use their money. It's just that this stupid method is a bit unsustainable now. Now that the imperial decree to establish the Jinhaiguan Road and the Guangdonghaiguan Road has been issued, some people in the court have proposed to set up the Zhehaiguan Road in Ningbo and the Minhaiguan Road in Fuzhou. If all the four major customs roads are opened, there will be four Trade has been established. If there is no one who assists and suppresses the town to compete with Zheng Haizhe for business, then Zheng Haizhe will use the court's four-port trade agreement to make it bigger.

In addition, now Aobai, Wu Sanwei and their subordinates have all escaped by sea, they should have retreated to the coastal islands.If the imperial court does not send aid to suppress the navy to chase and kill them, once they are slowed down, they will invade the bandits from the sea again.And if the maritime merchants in the southeast sea cannot be used by the imperial court, they may be used by Aobai and Wu Sanwei, then the trouble will be big!
Obai and Wu Sanwei are not Zheng pirates who only know how to fight at sea.In case they go north to Jinmen on a ship from the Southeast Sea Merchant."

Kangxi was finally frightened!
Now Wu Sangui is about to leave Qishan!If Aobai and Wu Sanwei landed from Weihaikou in Tianjin again, would the Qing court still be so resistant?

Thinking of this, Emperor Kangxi could only nod his head and agreed: "In this case, then I will accept Geng Jingzhong, Fan Chengmo, Sai Baili, and Tuer Shenbo to play!"

He thought for a while, and then said: "However, this naval aid town cannot be completely controlled by Chen Fufu, it must be controlled by General Hangzhou. The general office of this naval town must be located on Zhoushan Island off the coast of Zhejiang. That's all that comes to mind, Suo'etu, Mingzhu, you guys, go back and discuss with a few senior scholars, and draw up a charter for aiding and suppressing the Navy."

"Whoo!"

In November of the tenth year of Kangxi, in Lizhou, Hunan, the slender Jiashan Mountain on the south bank of the Lishui River was covered with white snow as in previous years, and it looked like the mountains and rivers of the Northland in winter.

Every year at this time, in the Foguang Pavilion on a mountain near Jiashan Temple on the southern slope of Jiashan, there will be a tall, broad shoulders, raised cheekbones, full sky, high nose bridge, deep eye sockets, white eyebrows, and one-eyed old man. The monk, with his big piercing eyes, looked at the north, often for a long time.

Today, the old monk was still standing alone in the Foguang Pavilion looking at the snow-covered mountains and rivers. After watching for an indeterminate amount of time, he suddenly heard the sound of creaking footsteps stepping on the snow.He didn't turn around, but asked in a low voice, "Laishun, is that you?"

"Yes, grandpa, grandpa Yihu is here."

The old monk turned around and glanced at the person who was talking to him—this young man with a shaved head and wearing a monk's robe, with a burly figure and thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"go!"

The old monk only said one word, and strode out of the pavilion, then stepped on the snow piled up on the steps, walked like flying, and went down the hillside to the six entrances inside and outside, covering an area of ​​about five acres, with tall walls and a mountain gate Go to Jiashan Temple, which is strong, with magnificent halls and lofts.

Jiashan Temple has a very long history, dating back to the Tang Dynasty, and it has been passed down for almost 800 years.However, the house in Jiashan Temple in front of me is not handed down from the Tang Dynasty, but in the early years of Shunzhi, by the great monk Fengtianyu, the one-eyed old monk who walked like flying on the snow, with a burly figure and an "elegant" face, led a large group of The persistent apprentice used profound Buddhist teachings to subdue a group of bandits who were entrenched in the old Jiashan Temple at that time, and then spent a lot of money to rebuild it.

This kind of merit is beyond words!

When the old monk came down from the Foguang Pavilion on the mountain and walked outside the tall mountain gate of Jiashan Temple, which looked like a city gate, there was a group of people wearing bamboo hats, coir raincoats, and waist knives standing in the snow outside the mountain gate. Men, all of them are a little older, and all have unshaven beards.But seeing the old monk walking quickly, all the elderly men in this team knelt down on one knee and shouted in unison: "See the emperor!"

The old monk stopped, and stood in front of the group of men who knelt down to him and called him "the emperor", with tears shining in his one eye, "Okay! You are all heroes of the Eda Shun Dynasty! Get up , all get up"

This team of men all stood up, and the leader was a man with sideburns, who seemed to be in his fifties, with a particularly burly figure, and looked similar to the statue of the Dharma Protector in the temple. He was striding forward. Walking up to the old monk, he bowed and said, "My subject, Liu Yihu, sees the emperor!"

The old monk known as the "Emperor" stretched out his hand to help the strong man named Liu Yihu, and then looked at the strong man in front of him with one eye, showing a gratified smile: "Okay, what a tiger!" , you are not old, you are not old, and you can do something earth-shattering!"

"My lord, you are not old either!"

The old monk shook his head: "Yihu, he is already 66 years old, and the whole world knows that Li Zicheng is dead!"

This Fengtianyu old monk turned out to be Li Zicheng, the King of Chuang, who broke into Beijing once he was addicted to the emperor!
It turned out that he didn't really die in Jiugong Mountain, but a golden cicada escaped his shell to fake his death. He hid in Jiashan with his confidants, occupied Jiashan Temple and became a monk.

However, his becoming a monk does not mean that he sees through the world of mortals. He just retreats to create space for his subordinates to cooperate with the Nanming court. After all, the general trend of the world at that time is not "the rise and fall of the country" but "the rise and fall of the world"!

It's a pity that even the backbone of Dashun and Daxi joined Nanming later, Nanming, who couldn't support the wall with mud, couldn't resist Daqing's attack.

Li Zicheng's remnant party, apart from the Yanping Palace on Dayuan Island, Qiu Hui on the coast of Chaozhou, Jiang Sheng on Xiamen Island, Chen Shangchuan on Longmen Island and other maritime forces, resisted the Qing Dynasty on the Chinese land until the last Ming Dynasty armed
However, the defeat of Li Laiheng (Li Zicheng's nephew and grandnephew) who insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty in the Eastern Maolu Mountain of the Ming Dynasty did not mean the complete destruction of Li Zicheng's party members.It's just that Li Zicheng's remnants are no longer able to hold high the banner of Ming Dynasty to fight against the Qing court.The surviving people gathered in the cottage stationed by one of Liu Tichun's brothers, Liu Yihu. Although they did not surrender to the Qing Dynasty, they still lowered the banner of the Ming Dynasty.

But no longer openly confronting the Qing Dynasty, it does not mean that they have really given up. In the original history, this Liu Yihu also raised the banner of righteousness during the San Francisco uprising, launched an uprising on the border between Sichuan and Chu, and mobilized thousands of people to attack the county seat , As a result, he bumped into the knife edge of Chen Shikai and Chen Tietou, who was loyal to the Qing Dynasty. He failed miserably before he became bigger.

But now, Liu Yihu's "anti-luck" seems to be coming!
Because Wu Sangui defeated the tens of thousands of Qing troops commanded by Yue Le in Xuzhou Prefecture in southern Sichuan, the Qing forces in Sichuan suffered an avalanche. Chen Shikai, the Qing army stationed in Wushan County, ran away without waiting for Liu Yihu to raise the flag to rebel.

After Chen Shikai ran away, there was a power vacuum in Wushan County, so Liu Yihu took a group of his men and occupied Wushan County without bloodshed.After taking Wushan County, Liu Yihu did not immediately use the banner of Daming or seek refuge in Wu Sangui, but traveled day and night, crossing mountains and ridges, to Jiashan in Shimen County, Lizhou, and found Li Zicheng, who lives in seclusion here, and wanted him to come out of the mountain to return Open the Great Shun Dynasty!
"Yihu, this is not a place to talk, come with me." Li Zicheng pulled Liu Yihu's right hand, and then waved to the group of men standing outside the mountain gate, "You guys also come into the temple, at Jiashan Temple in Er , it’s like coming home.”

While talking, Li Zicheng took Liu Yihu into the gate of Jiashan Temple, and then asked his disciple and grand-nephew Li Laishun to lead Liu Yihu's men to rest in the Zen room first, and then led Liu Yihu to the Buddhist scripture pavilion in Jiashan Temple. .

It is said to be a Sutra Pavilion, but in fact there are not many scriptures hidden in it. Only the bottom floor of the two-story pavilion is used to store scriptures. The second floor is Li Zicheng's bedroom, study room, and a small hall.

Li Zicheng directly led Liu Yihu into his study. There were two thin books on the desk in the study. Liu Yihu glanced at them, and then read out the titles in a low voice: ""The World is Public", "The Tian Mu System of the Heavenly Dynasty" "."

Liu Yihu didn't dare to sit down, so he stood by the desk and asked, "My lord, what kind of book is this?"

"This is anti-book!" Li Zicheng sat down with a smile, and seeing Liu Yihu still standing, he hurriedly greeted him, "Sit, sit down."

"My lord, I'd better stand here." Liu Yihu shook his head.

Li Zicheng smiled and said: "Oh, Yihu, our Dashun Dynasty has long since disappeared, so what is the emperor?"

"My lord, now the opportunity has come again," Liu Yihu said, "We have already captured the emperor of Wushan County, so don't be a monk in Jiashan Temple, let's go to Wushan County with us to do great things!"

Li Zicheng smiled and waved his hands: "No, if you don't go to Wushan County, it's not a place where you can achieve great things. If you don't go, don't stay there for too long. Besides, it's out of date. You have to use the banner of the forehead, except There is no benefit in making Wu Sangui and Kangxi enemies.

As he said that, Li Zicheng patted "The World Is Public" and "The System of Tian Mu" on the desk again, "Yihu, I got these two anti-books a few days ago, and I have read them carefully. Good books Ah! If I had read it more than 20 years earlier, I wouldn’t have hurt so many brothers. Yihu, if you want to do a big business, read it carefully, that’s right.”

"My lord," Liu Yihu looked at Li Zicheng, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "This scholar rebelled, and he failed in three years. Since ancient times, how can scholars rebel?"

"Why not?" Li Zicheng said, "there are many scholars rebelling! Huang Chao, who opposed the Tang Dynasty in the early years, was a scholar. Later, Liu Futong and Du Zundao, who opposed the Yuan Dynasty, also read books. Among them, Du Zundao was also a student of the Yuan Dynasty. Otherwise, how could they Write out such rebellious opponents as "Three Thousands of Tigers and Bends, Straight to the Land of Youyan; Nine Five Years of Dragon Flying, Reopening the Heaven of the Great Song Dynasty"? Well, the rebellion did not succeed in the past, because there was less reading. Once it becomes bigger, I don’t know What should be done, just do it right there!
Yihu, you can read more rebellious books, and make a good rebellion against him! "

As soon as the rebellion was mentioned, Li Zicheng's spirits also rose, and Liu Yihu became even more interested-he didn't like reading and studying, but rebellion is his hobby!

"My lord, this book must be a good read, but you should talk to me first, what should I do next?" Liu Yihu asked.

"Okay, then I'll talk to you," Li Zicheng said, "First of all, don't be afraid of playing Wu Sangui's banner, and don't be afraid that the courtiers who claim to be Ming will definitely rebel this time!"

"What? Backdoor rebellion?" Liu Yihu asked, "What kind of backdoor?"

"Borrow Wu Sangui's shell!" Li Zicheng said with a smile, "Yihu, you must remember that when Ming Taizu rebelled, he used the strategy of accumulating grain, building walls, and becoming king slowly. He also Borrowing the shell of Han Song, hiding under the banner of Liu Futong and King Xiaoming to develop their own power. We must use this method now, use Wu Sangui as a shield, and let him stand in front, so that we can develop ourselves. If you play big Shun's banner, can Wu Sangui treat you as one of his own?

In addition, if we want to develop, we cannot establish a base in a place like Wushan with a small population and a vast land. "

"Why?" Liu Yihu asked.

"Because there are so few people and so much land, there's no way to share the land!" Li Zicheng said, "Eh, I chanted the slogan of exempting grain and equalizing land. But I only made grain free, but ignored the equalization of land. Therefore, You can pull the team together, but you can't establish a solid basis. You must learn your lesson!"

"Then where are you going to raise your troops?" Liu Yihu asked again.

"It's in the area of ​​Lizhou and Changde!" Li Zicheng said, "I know the situation here. The population here is relatively large, and the rich and powerful families occupy a lot of land. There are many poor people who have no land. It happens to use the land to mobilize them.

In addition, Wu Sangui has now captured most of Guizhou, and he will leave Huguang soon. You just took the opportunity to raise your troops at Shimen to respond, so fight Wu Sangui under the banner of Wu Sangui. There are some old brothers under Wu Sangui, find their way, and ask for seals No problem with two state capitals.When you have acquired the land in Lizhou and Changde, you will really have a foundation and wait for the opportunity to grow bigger! "
