Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 233 The Fuming Conference, the beginning of political discussion, the enemy is Wu Sangui? (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)

Southwest of Nanjing City, outside Dasheng Pass, in the long pavilion.

"Your minister, Geng Jingzhong, kowtows to the third prince of King Ding, the king is a thousand years old."

Geng Jingzhong, the alternate Eastern King, finally bowed to the alternate Ming Xiandi who was sitting in the long pavilion.

In fact, it was not the first time that the two of them had met. Before Geng Jingzhong made up his mind to embrace Ming Xiandi as Prime Minister Geng, he met Zhu Cijiong on Gulangyu Island, a small island next to Xiamen Island.Also present at the time were Yanping Wang Zhengjing, Chaozhou town Liu Jinzhong, and Hailu aid town Chen Yonghua.But that time Geng Jingzhong did not salute the third prince Zhu, and both sides saluted equally.

After all, at that time, the third prince Zhu had no capital at all, but only had a title, and this title was not very real. If others recognized him, he was nothing.

After completing the "interview" with the third prince Zhu, Geng Jingzhong felt that this man was very suitable to be a puppet, so he decided to take a risk!
But he never expected that the third prince Zhu entered Jiangning faster than himself!Moreover, Geng Jingzhong is obviously not the only backer behind this candidate Ming Xiandi!
The Lu Sanhao who initiated the Jiangning Incident and took over half of Jiangning for the third prince of Zhu, but from Wu Sangui he voted for the Qing side, and now he has turned around to support the third prince Zhu in Jiangning. Needless to say, this guy must be People from Wu Sangui!
And Wang Fuchen's son, Wang Zhongxiao, also appeared in Nanjing!
It came so fast, and the third prince Zhu seems to have been hiding in Guangdong before!Obviously, Wang Fuchen is also the boss behind the third prince Zhu!

Needless to say, Zheng Jing from Dayuan Island, his family has always been under the banner of the Ming Dynasty, and he must be one of the group of men behind the third prince Zhu.

As for Li Zicheng, it is reasonable to say that he cannot be a supporter of the third prince Zhu, but who knows?After all, Wuchang has never admitted that there is Li Zicheng. Li Fengtian, Li Laishun, and Liu Yihu are in charge there.

Since Li Zicheng "doesn't exist", why doesn't Wuchang come to Nanjing to intervene?
Standing behind the Third Prince Zhu was Wu Sangui, Li Zicheng, Wang Fuchen, Zheng Jing, and Liu Jinzhong. How could Geng Jingzhong, the candidate for Prime Minister Geng, dare not pay his respects?

Seeing Geng Jingzhong's submissive attitude, Zhu Cijiong suppressed the joy in his heart, and said in a voice that could not hear the joy or anger: "Get up, sit down."

Geng Jingzhong got up immediately, and there was already a brocade pier set up next to him, and he sat down on the full one.

Geng Jingzhong sat down after worshiping, and then it was Liu Jinzhong's turn to worship alone, and Zhu Cijiong also gave him a seat.The generals of Geng, Liu, Shang and other ministries who came to visit later did not worship one by one, but arranged shifts according to size outside the pavilion to worship together. After the worship, they were not given seats, so they were asked to stand outside the pavilion. with.

Then, the Third Prince Zhu issued another oral order, inviting Lu Sanhao, Wang Zhongxiao, Chen Yonghua, Huang Baijia, Jing Chuan, Zheng Desheng and others into the long pavilion together.However, none of the six fashion books had a seat, and they all stood on both sides.

In this way, in the long pavilion, the third prince Zhu sat facing south, Geng Jingzhong and Liu Jinzhong sat facing north, and the six temporary books stood on both sides.

And this structure also reflects the current power structure in Nanjing, or the comparison of various forces.

Geng Jingzhong and Liu Jinzhong are ranked first and second in terms of military strength in Nanjing, and they both want to be princes, one is the king of the east, and the other is the king of the north. They both have a bright future!

Among the six ministers, Wang Zhongxiao and Huang Baijia are the representatives of the alternate Southern King Wang Fuchen, Lu Sanhao is from Wu Sangui, Chen Yonghua is from Zheng Jing, Zheng Desheng is from Yang Qilong to Zhu Cijiong, and Jing Chuan is from Lu Three good people - like Wang Zhongxiao, he is actually occupying a seat, and when the discussions on all aspects of participating in the Ming Dynasty's new court come to an end, the seats of these two ministers will still be given up.

According to Wang Zhongxiao's mind, the new court of the Ming Dynasty should be jointly run by the shares of seven or six families.Wang Fuchen, Wang Zhongxiao and his son belong to the same family, Wu Sangui belongs to the family, Li Zicheng belongs to the family, Geng Jingzhong belongs to the family, Liu Jinzhong belongs to the family, and Zheng Jing is of course still the same family. I don’t know if I’m still willing to come to Nanjing?

Naturally, these six and seven families have to send representatives in Nanjing. As for these representatives, they can be the six ministers, they can also be academicians, or they can simply be called ministers of state affairs. It's the same anyway!
After all, the current Nanjing court is just a signboard, with only the five counties of Yingtian in its territory, so don't care about any ministers, just take care of the affairs of these five counties, and put them in other places, which is the level of the master.

Although there are only five counties in the territory, and he is not necessarily obedient, Zhu Cijiong is very contented - the house he lives in now is the governor's office where Duolong, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, lives!Although it is not as good as the Forbidden City where he lived when he was a child, it is also the second largest house he has ever lived in.Most importantly, the house is still his own!
While living in a big house in the center of Nanjing, the number of his wives also had a breakthrough growth. He had a wife named Hu before. After being discovered by Wang Zhongxiao, Chen Yonghua, and Yang Qilong, Yang Qilong gave one of his sisters, Yang Ziyun, to her. He became a concubine, and now he is monogamous and concubine, and his life has been nourished a lot.

But compared to "Xiandi", it's still far behind. Xiandi is also an emperor, and ten wives are not too many, right?

And this small goal has now been overfulfilled!
When the Third Prince Zhu lived in Duolong's governor's office, Duolong's concubines didn't have time to escape, they were all taken over by him and they were all beauties!
Most of them are the beauties from Jiangnan, Jiangbei, and Jiangxi that Duolong received in Liangjiang after he became the governor of Liangjiang. There are also two Dongying beauties and Korean beauties that Chen Yonghua found for him. Yi beauty. That is a beautiful woman like a cloud!Back then, the harem of the third prince Zhu's father, Chongzhen, was not so colorful, but now it belongs to the third prince Zhu, can he be dissatisfied?

A long-cherished wish for many years will be fulfilled in one day!

The house and beauties are already top-notch, not to mention the food and supplies. Nanjing is a land of abundant resources, and the Jiangning Incident didn’t cause much trouble. It’s almost a peaceful takeover. The Qing government now has no ability to deal with Nanjing Engage in blockade.So now Zhu Cijiong has really enjoyed the joy of dedicating himself to the emperor!

But can the present happiness last?

Thinking of this, the Third Prince Zhu finally frowned, and said to Geng Jingzhong and Liu Jinzhong: "King Geng, Liu Zhen, the lonely family heard that the Tartar court will soon set up the four camps of Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Jiangdong, and Jiangxi to trap Jinling to death. , and Jinling is full of businesses waiting to flourish, and there are few soldiers. Not to mention dealing with the four camps, even the Eight Banners soldiers and the Eight Banners' family members entrenched in the imperial city have not been able to eradicate them in one fell swoop, so they can only besieged first. I don't know What is the best way to break the situation?

In addition, the Gu family can re-enter Jinling, which is also the result of the public recommendation of anti-Qing heroes. Therefore, the restoration of Ming Dynasty, after thinking about it, should be held by the heroes of all parties to discuss the restoration of the Ming Dynasty. How to answer this Ming?How to destroy Qing?How can the world achieve long-term peace and stability?The lonely family. How should I be a Yuanjun who hangs down and rules? "

Of course what he said was the truth, he already knew the "joy of offering the emperor", and what he wanted was of course to keep the emperor for a long time. As for real power, he wanted it now, but he couldn't get it!

Wang Zhongxiao listened to the words of the third prince Zhu who was "willing to sacrifice himself to the emperor", and he also sighed in his heart: Could this be the beginning of the Ming Dynasty's constitutional system?

Ming Xiandi, who was pushed out as a signboard and had no real power at all, faced a group of "a certain prime minister" with ulterior motives, and could get a false king who enjoyed wealth in name only, how could there be any dissatisfaction?
If you can't think about L Xian, you have to weigh whether you have that strength?
Mr. L Xianxu of the Western countries probably started like this, right?
But a successful constitutional system is not like it is now, it is almost as chaotic as the Holy Roman Empire!
Thinking of this, Wang Zhongxiao let out a cough, and was the first to speak, "Your Majesty, I think it is extremely necessary to convene the Ming Fuming Conference. Xunzi once said: Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it! The defeat of the previous Ming Dynasty was caused by the overturning of the boat by the water. But now the boat of the Ming Dynasty must be supported by the water, and must be good at the buoyancy of the water. The best way to achieve the love of water and the power of water is probably to The boat and the water are of one mind! And to be of one mind, the boat and the water should be discussed, so that we can share the wind and rain and overcome the difficulties together!
Therefore, this Fuming Conference must not only be held, but also be held frequently, and it must continue to be held. Even if the restoration of Ming is successful in the future, the boat of Great Ming must always listen to the suggestions of Wanminzhishui!

Only in this way, the water of the people will always carry the boat of the Ming Dynasty! "

Zhu Cijiong knew the meaning of Wang Zhongxiao's faction a long time ago—strictly speaking, he is also a member of this faction!Of course I know about the "Yuanjun" and "Yuanchen".

And he is very much in favor of it too!

Because he is very aware of his weight. Only by becoming the "Yuanjun" can he always be Xiandi!

The loss of Emperor Xian, in Zhu Cijiong's view, is that he failed to become the "Yuanjun". In other words, Emperor Xian is not Yuanjun, so it is meaningful for Cao thief to usurp the throne, otherwise, what is Cao thief trying to do?

Therefore, the original face of the third prince Zhu who was not happy or angry immediately became expressive, revealing a very satisfied smile. Everyone knew that the third prince had no ambitions and was a master who could be a puppet with peace of mind!

When Geng Jingzhong came from Taiping Mansion, he also discussed the situation in Nanjing with his advisers and Liu Jinzhong - of course he wanted to usurp the throne!Otherwise, what is he tossing about?Wouldn't it be nice to be a vassal king in Fujian?

And there seemed to be three enemies standing in front of him usurping the throne, the first of course being Wu Sangui!
Colleagues are enemies!
What is Wu Sangui thinking, there are still people who don't understand?He wants to be emperor too!
And the hatred between the candidates for the emperor is really fruitless!
The second person standing in the way of Geng Jingzhong's progress is of course Kangxi!

Kangxi is already the emperor, of course he doesn't want more and more emperors in the world.

The third prince Zhu was ranked third in Geng Jingzhong's "blacklist". When Wu Sangui was killed and Kangxi was brought down, he was about to usurp the throne.

But right now, it would be nice to hold a Ming Fuming Conference.

This Ming Fuming Conference sounds as if it can limit the power of the third prince Zhu, who is the "dedicated emperor"-in fact, it is also protecting the third prince Zhu, but Geng Jingzhong will not understand.

Geng Jingzhong, who thought he had figured out the key point, also nodded and said, "What His Royal Highness Ding Wang said is very true, what you said Shi Kai is also reasonable. Da Ming has indeed lost the world. Although there are many reasons for this loss of the world, among them It also includes immorality!"

When he said this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Can a courtier say that the emperor's family is immoral in front of the emperor?
It seems that we should wait until we seek to usurp the throne, right?
"Yes, yes, what King Geng said is very true!" The third prince Zhu nodded repeatedly, "My family has been sitting in the world for a long time, and I have forgotten the truth that water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat. I even forgot what water and boat are. If my family wants to revive the Ming Dynasty and take the Mingzhou again, we should hold a meeting to get the support of the Water of the World! If everyone supports it, then I will board the boat. If the Water of the World supports others, then let others board the boat.”

other people?

Wu Sangui?
this can't work
Except for Lu Yifeng of Wu Sangui's system, and everyone else has such thoughts!
Wu Sangui has the strength, but the prestige of convincing the public. He doesn't have it!
Moreover, once Wu Sangui became the emperor, he would no longer be the Yuanjun, but the real monarch with great power. Everyone had to listen to him, and he might even kill heroes to eliminate hidden dangers.

In comparison, the third prince Zhu is much better. He wants to kill, but his strength doesn't allow it!

"Others? I, Liu Jinzhong, will be the first to refuse to accept other people's boarding!" Liu Jinzhong immediately stated, "Your Majesty, only His Royal Highness King Ding can be!"

"Yes!" Chen Yonghua immediately stated, "The emperor can only be the third prince!"

These two, especially Chen Yonghua and Zheng Jing represented by him, are absolutely loyal ministers of Ming Dynasty. Daming's loyalty still needs to be doubted?
Therefore, the Zheng family must hold Zhongming's signboard high!

After all, Liu Jinzhong was from the Yongwei Camp, and he was an old acquaintance with the third prince Zhu, so of course he has to rely on Zhu San now!
"King Ding," Zheng Desheng sent by Yang Qilong also expressed his opinion, "You are not the emperor, who else can be? I think you should ascend the throne first, and then hold the Fuming Conference!"

Yang Qilong's sister is Concubine Yang Guifei—there must be concubine Yang Guifei, but I don't know which one is it?
So of course he is in favor of the third prince Zhu being the emperor!
After all, beside Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng, there is no plus-size beauty surnamed Yang.
"The meeting will still be held!" Zhu Cijiong laughed, "If all the heroes in the world support Li Zicheng, then this king is willing to go north to deal with him."

Lu Sanhao took over the topic and said, "Your Majesty, King Geng, General Liu, how about we formally invite people from Xiwang, Guangdong Wangzhijun, Huguang Li's, and Dayuandao Zheng's to Nanjing?"

The Fuming Conference, which is said to be a hero in the world, is actually a "emperor election conference".Those who are qualified to join in are all great warlords!

"Let's add Manqing!" Wang Zhongxiao suddenly interrupted at this time, "Although Kangxi will definitely not send someone, we should still invite one. After all, the next day also includes Nuer Gandusi and Monan Mongolia! "

In addition, North Korea, Ryukyu, and Annan can also send people over to invite them. If they are willing to admit that they are vassals of Ming Dynasty, they should also send people over. "

"North Korea, Ryukyu, and Annan are easy to talk about," Chen Yonghua said. "Who will the Manchurians send? Our people will not be arrested and killed by the tyrant Kangxi?"

I am very sure of that!A group of rebels held a meeting to overthrow the Qing Dynasty, and they asked Kangxi to send someone to attend the meeting. It would be strange if Kangxi was blown up!
"Mingzhu!" Wang Zhongxiao said with a smile, "Mingzhu is the descendant of Jin Taiji, the chief of the Yehe tribe, and Jin Taiji is a loyal and loyal man of the Ming Dynasty!"

After Jin Taiji was beaten to death by Nurhachi, Emperor Wanli felt that he was very loyal, and he was considered loyal.Therefore, Mingzhu was indeed the loyal queen of the Ming Dynasty and sent him to send a hero post to Emperor Kangxi, which was also a legitimate reason to release him.

Wang Zhongxiao still respected his teachers, and he didn't want to kill Mingzhu, a "famous official" who was not successful enough but had a lot of failures.If Yue Le, Laita, Fei Yanggu, and Mang Yitu were caught, they cannot be released.

"That's fine!" Third Prince Zhu also knew Ming Zhu, nodded and said, "Let Ming Zhu go. Let's stop talking about the Restoration Conference first!"

As he said that, he frowned again, "Now there is still a piece of Nanjing that has not been captured, and the lonely family has only a few thousand people on hand, so we can only forcefully surround them, which is not always a solution. King Geng, Liu Zhen, can you go out Order soldiers and help the lonely family take care of them?
In addition, Jiangpu and Liuhe in Jiangbei have not yet been recovered. Who of the two can send troops to Jiangbei? "
