Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 238 Holy Daming, Six Fathers Discussing Politics (Please subscribe, ask for a monthly ticket)
"What? Li Zicheng sent Yue Le to cross the border to deal with Gu. How dare he say that he is loyal to Daming? How dare he ask for the title of King Zhong? How shameless is he? Gu has never seen such a brazen person before, and Gu will never seal Li Zicheng Be loyal to the king! He is not loyal at all!"

"Prince Ding, you have misunderstood. The main general of Li Family Army in Huguang is not King Chuang, but the son of Duke Xingguo. The one who asked you to be King Zhong is also our son."

"You're talking nonsense! Who doesn't know that Wuchang, Hanyang, Yuezhou, Huangzhou, etc. are occupied by gangsters, and Li Zicheng himself is in power?"

In Nanjing City, in Prince Ding's Mansion of Jianguo, Zhu Cijiong, the king of Ding who had just watched the Qing soldiers cross the river outside Nanjing City, was furious at Huang Zhisheng, Li Zicheng's envoy!

To be honest, Zhu Cijiong, the third prince of Zhu, has a good temper and rarely gets angry at the subordinates, not to mention that Li Zicheng is not a "subordinate" at all, but one of the few men behind Zhu Cijiong!

But Li Zicheng went too far this time!He actually let Yue Le lead the Jingzhou Legion of the Qing Dynasty through the Yangtze River in Wuchang, Hanyang, and Yuezhou, and ran to Jiangsu with all their tails.

The Jingzhou Legion of the Qing Dynasty is not the "second-line Tartars" here in Liangjiang, but the first-line elite of the Qing Dynasty. Their old background is the Eight Banners New Army of Fengtai Daying.It was the elite trained by Kangxi to clean up Wu Sangui!

Although it was later proved that these elites were still unable to defeat Wu Sangui, but Li Zicheng, Wu Guogui, and Wu Yingxiong did not send troops to deal with them for so many days they stayed in Jingzhou, which may also show that they still have some combat effectiveness.

In addition, this army did not suffer any losses when Li Zicheng took Wuchang and Wu Yingxiong took Xiangyang.It's just that they were transferred to the south of the Yangtze River by the wrong command to copy Li Zicheng's lair, but they missed nothing, and Wu Yingxiong and Li Zicheng seized the opportunity to counter copy.

Although the battle of the Jingzhou Legion was muddled, their strength is still there!
After Yue Le took office, he reorganized the messy Jingzhou Army. The Eight Banners New Army, the Garrison Banner Battalion, the Eight Banners Household Slaves, and the Green Battalion were all reorganized according to the standards of the Eight Banners New Army, forming a total of three The Eight Banners Association, one Banner Slave Association, two Green Battalion Associations, and one Pro-Soldier Association have sorted out a total of [-] to [-] elite soldiers!
Now that Li Zicheng has sent all these elite soldiers to Liangjiang, can the Third Prince Zhu still be a Xiandi in peace and stability?
Emperor Xian doesn't allow people to take good care of him, so how can Prince Zhu not be angry?
Not only the third prince Zhu was annoyed, but even Geng Jingzhong, the reserve king of the east, and Liu Jinzhong, the reserve king of the north, among the "big bosses" behind the third prince Zhu were also full of anger. Woke up.

"Li Zicheng is the number one rebel in the past and present, and now he has let the Qing soldiers come down to threaten Nandu Yingtian. How dare he beg for the title of King Zhong? He is loyal! When Lao Tzu's Jiangbei regiment is trained, he will definitely send troops to the west. Let this old thief be sacrificed to the spirit of the late emperor!"

"If Li Zicheng is not eliminated as a thief, the world will be in trouble! Your Highness Jian Guo, we must not make him a loyal king now. Not only can we not make him a king, but we should also issue an edict to punish him!"

But after Geng Jingzhong and Liu Jinzhong finished their quarrel, the lobby of Jian Guo Mansion suddenly fell silent, no one followed suit, no one spoke, and it was completely silent.

Everyone turned their attention to Wang Zhongxiao, Lu Sanhao, and Chen Yonghua—although the three of them could not be listed among the "Six Kings of Ming Dynasty Revival (East, South, West, North, Yi, and Ding)", they all had full authority to represent a king. Qualifications!
Moreover, Wang Fuchen, Wu Sangui, and Zheng Jing represented by them are the real weighty kings among the six kings of Fuxing. Especially if Wang Fuchen and Wu Sangui don't want to send troops to attack Li Zicheng, then any edicts issued by King Jian Guoding of the Ming Dynasty will be useless.

Geng Jingzhong's troops are currently stretched thin, and even Lu Sanhao's Yingtian regiment may not be able to take down, so don't even think about sending troops to Wuchang.And Liu Jinzhong has just gained a firm foothold in Jiangpu and Liuhe in Jiangbei, and those two counties are almost attached to the Jiangbei camp of the Qing Dynasty, and it is difficult for the soldiers in his hand to even protect themselves.
The silence in the lobby of the Jianguo Mansion did not last long, Wang Zhongxiao asked Lu Sanhao with a smile, "Brother Sanhao, what does King Xi mean? Do you want to send troops to avenge Duke Wu Zhongzhuang?"

Lu Sanhao shook his head, and said: "When the King of the West was in Yunnan, he often taught us juniors to be united! If we want to achieve great things, we must be united. We must never fight ourselves before the great things are achieved.

His old man said that the reason why Nanming didn't stand firm was because his own people beat his own people. Before the Manchurians came over, Zuo Liangyu sent troops to Qingjun's side first!This powerful enemy is still alive, so how can we fight among ourselves first?

Moreover, the old man also told us that if a man wants to be famous in history, he should put the world first and take private matters lightly.

The old man also said that if all the affairs of the world are broken, no matter how good the private affairs are, they will not be able to go anywhere, and the family affairs of the Han people in the world will be fine? "

Wang Zhongxiao smiled, and asked: "So, the Western King also participated in Yue Lehe's transaction of exchanging the lands of Jingzhou, Anlu, and De'an for the road to the east?"

Lu San laughed and said: "I don't know, but once Yue Le leaves, the army of the Prince of the West will have no worries, and they can go north from Xiangyang to take Wan and Luo directly!"

Chen Yonghua smiled and cupped his hands, "Then congratulations to King Xi! When King Xi marches from Longxi to Guanzhong again, Kangxi will be under the enemy's front and back, and it will be difficult to take care of both sides. It seems that we Han people will be able to recover all the land in a short time. Already!"

Lu Sanhao turned his head with a smile, and said to Prince Zhu: "His Royal Highness, I feel that Li Zicheng is indeed not suitable to be a loyal king, but now it is not Li Zicheng, but Li Laishun, who is the posthumous son of Li Xingguo, a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty. How can the foster brother of loyal Li Linguo not be a loyal king?"

Wang Zhongxiao also nodded, and then said to Zhu Cijiong with a smile: "Your Highness Ding Wang, the reason why Wuxi King, Li Zhongwang, Gengdong King, Liu Beiwang, my father Daming Nanwang, and the winged Daming King Zheng Yi You can become the prince of Ming Dynasty not because you have won the conferment of the emperor of Ming Dynasty, but only if they become the prince of Ming Dynasty, can Ming Dynasty have an emperor, and you can become the emperor of Ming Dynasty!"

Third Prince Zhu was taken aback, "Then, wouldn't that mean that the courtiers have elected the emperor?"

Wang Zhongxiao said with a smile: "Your Majesty is the Yuanjun who ruled from the bow, not the hero who takes the world by bowing the horse. The reason why the Yuanjun can become the emperor is because the heroes of the world want a communist who can carry the banner of anti-Qing and Ming Dynasty. The master is the heroes of the world who want to be the master, not you recruiting the heroes of the world for your own use!"

What he said was quite rude!

It is the heroes of the world who want to make the third prince Zhu the emperor, so he can be the emperor!If the heroes don't want him to be an emperor, he won't be an emperor!
So whether Li Zicheng or Li Laishun can be a loyal king, he, the third prince Zhu, doesn't count!
As for whether he, the third prince Zhu, can become Emperor Xiandi of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng has the final say!

Of course the third prince Zhu understood what Wang Zhongxiao meant, and Zhu Cijiong also thoroughly understood "The Theory of the World Is Public".

However, he originally thought that the principles in "The World is Public" may not be fully implemented, but the reality is always so cruel. Donggeng, Xiwu, Nanwang, Beiliu, Zhongli, and Yizheng were originally named Prince Daming , is really the Great Ming Taishanghuang!
Where is the Fuming Six Kings?He is the sixth father of Daming!
But having said that, it is also good that there are more emperors, that is, they can "use fathers to control fathers", any "father" who wants to seek to usurp the throne, other fathers will not agree.

After all, without the third prince Zhu, who is the emperor, who will be the emperor?

If Wu Sangui wanted to usurp the throne, it would be impossible for him to recognize Dong Geng, Nan Wang, Bei Liu, Zhong Li, and Yi Zheng as fathers, right?

After thinking about this truth, the third prince Zhu no longer resisted the "fatherly love" of his fathers, but smiled and said to Huang Zhisheng: "Since Li Laishun is a loyal son of Ming Dynasty, and now he is sitting in Wuchang, Hanyang, Huangzhou, Yuezhou, Jingzhou and other prefectures are sealed off, no, please invite Xingguo Gong to be the loyal king of my new Ming Dynasty!"

The emperor here has a good attitude!

Geng Jingzhong, Liu Jinzhong, Wang Zhongxiao, Lu Sanhao, Chen Yonghua and others all showed satisfied smiles.

The word "please" is used well. The West King, East King, South King, North King, Zhong Wang, and Yi King are not the three princes of Zhu who can be sealed. They can only be invited. Please, invite others to be kings, no, Be a father!

"Your Majesty, I would like to thank you for your invitation on behalf of His Royal Highness King Zhong!" Huang Zhisheng hurriedly saluted, and then took out a memorial, "This is His Royal Highness Zhong leading Wuchang, Hanyang, Huangzhou, Yue The form of persuasion put up by scholars and people in prefectures such as Zhouzhou and Jingzhou. I sincerely hope that the king will be on the throne early, and proclaim himself emperor, so as to secure the world."

Geng Jingzhong and Liu Jinzhong saw that Huang Zhisheng persuaded Li Laishun to come in on behalf of Li Laishun, so they quickly took out the memorial book they had prepared long ago, and bowed to the third prince Zhu.

"My lord, I also advise you to become emperor earlier! Now there is a little Emperor Kangxi in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and our Ming Dynasty has almost half of the country. It is also time for you to ascend the throne and sing against Kangxi."

"Your Majesty, my minister Geng Jingzhong respectfully asks you to ascend the Great Treasure as soon as possible, so that you can be the hope of the world!"

Very good!
The three fathers have been persuaded to come in!

Third Prince Zhu's mood immediately improved, but he still didn't dare to agree. Who made his father more?Wang Zhongxiao, Chen Yonghua, especially Lu Sanhao haven't nodded yet!

Wang Zhongxiao did his part, and was the first to pour cold water on the third prince Zhu: "Now the Fuming Conference has not yet been held, and the Fuming Agreement has not yet been established. Isn't it a little urgent to ask the king to ascend the throne?"

Chen Yonghua also laughed and said, "King Ding is definitely going to be enthroned, but the heroes who got the hero posts and are going to Nanjing to participate in the conference have not yet reached the enthronement ceremony of His Highness King Ding, and it's not grand to hold the enthronement ceremony!"

Lu San laughed and said: "That's right! We must first review how the former Ming Dynasty died, and then discuss how the new Ming Dynasty should avoid repeating the same mistakes, and then it will not be too late for the King Ding to ascend the throne!"

knew!The three of them belonged to a group of "surrogate fathers"!
And the three of them must have discussed it, and they must act according to the principles of "Original Lord", "Original Minister", "Original Law" and so on in "The World Is Public"!
The next step is to hold a general meeting, the law of contract, and finally the public election of a new emperor and the establishment of a cabinet with real power!
The third prince Zhu now understands that life is not easy for this "more father"!

But now he has to think about the beauties in the harem, the living expenses of 1 taels of silver a month, and such a big house, compared to the old days of eating pickled vegetables and tofu, I don’t know how much better it is!

Thinking of rolling tofu with salted vegetables, Third Prince Zhu was still a little hungry, so he smiled and said: "Okay, let's hold the Fuming Conference first. If you don't have anything to do today, let's leave work. I have to read the sage books for a while!"

After finishing speaking, he smiled and stood up, and the two "fathers" and four "surrogate fathers" all saluted him together, sending him, the alternate emperor, away respectfully.

And just when the third prince Zhu came out of the palace hall and walked briskly towards the harem full of joy, another senior official who wanted to be his "surrogate father" was sitting in a mansion in Yangzhou city. , while enjoying Huaiyang cuisine, while talking with a "Qin Hui" who sneaked over from Nanjing.

This "Qin Hui" is Li Guangdi. He has an inexplicable astonishment at the moment, looking at Mingzhu, he can't even speak: "Ming, Ming, Ming Cao Shuai, what are you talking about? Loyalty, how did you become Qin Hui?"

It never occurred to him that he was so loyal to the Qing Dynasty, he was in the Ming camp and his heart was clear, and he took such a big risk to come to Yangzhou to report the news, and in the end he was regarded as Qin Hui!

Is this Qin Hui so loyal?

Mingzhu, who was eating a stewed lion's head with crab meat in clear soup, immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks when she heard this, and replied with a smile: "Jin Qing, this Qin Hui is also loyal to the Jin Dynasty!"

"This"

Mingzhu said again: "Jin Qing, this Qin Hui was loyal to the Jin Dynasty in the Southern Song Dynasty, and killed Yue Fei on trumped-up charges, so that there would be no more famous generals in the Southern Song Dynasty who could devote themselves to the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains. He has made great contributions to the Jin Dynasty! You are now in Mingying , shouldn't we follow Qin Hui's example and kill several famous generals who resisted the Qing Dynasty?"

harm who?

Li Guang said, "Yue Fei is a loyal minister, and only loyal ministers can frame him. But now there is no such person in Nanming, and those who led troops to rebel against the Qing are all worse than traitors and worse than Qin Hui!"

And Dong Geng, Xi Wu, Nan Wang, Bei Liu, and Zhong Li are simply the "fathers" of the third prince Zhu!
If Yue Fei were Zhao Gou's "father", what would you do to Qin Hui?
"Jinqing, you have to be flexible!" Mingzhu smiled and said, "You can use an unwarranted crime to harm Yue Fei, and you can use another method to harm those princes who embrace power. For example, use the king to control the king!"

Li Guang nodded and thought to himself: Isn't it just cheating his father with his father, uniting one father to fight another father?
But will this set work against Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng, the two old foxes, Zheng Jing's fine man, Wang Fuchen's hustler Lu Bu, and Wang Zhongxiao's little hustler Lu Bu?
"Also, Jinqing, have you gained the trust of the third prince Zhu recently?" Mingzhu asked about the relationship between Li Guangdi and Zhu Cijiong again.

"Xiaguan and Zezhen (Chen Menglei) are indeed trusted by the third prince Zhu." Li Guang said, "but the third prince Zhu does not have any real power."

"Who is in power in Nanjing now?" Mingzhu asked.

"Geng Jingzhong, Lu Sanhao, Chen Yonghua, and Wang Zhongxiao are the four people who discuss major issues in Nanjing." Li Guang said, "However, Wang Zhongxiao and Chen Yonghua sent by Dayuan Island are already preparing to leave Nanjing after the Fuming Conference. .”

Mingzhu snorted: "It smells that something is going wrong, so you are going to run away?"

"Cao Shuai, you are holy."

Mingzhu thought for a while: "Will Third Prince Zhu be willing to be the son-emperor of the Qing Dynasty?"

"That's impossible." Li Guangdi shook his head while thinking: The third prince Zhu is "Daduo", how can there be a "father position" for Kangxi?

"Isn't he without real power?" Mingzhu asked again, "Don't tell me he doesn't want to rely on the support of the Qing Dynasty to become a powerful emperor like Zhao Gou?"

"Well." Li Guangdi considered it for a while, "Maybe he really wants to, but he really can't make the decision."

Mingzhu smiled and said: "He doesn't need to be the master, as long as he and Geng Jingzhong believe that Daqing and Wu Sangui are about to start a desperate battle, there is really no time to look east, and Wu Sangui can't care about Li Zicheng, and he can't stop Li Zicheng from committing Jinling. This matter is right. As far as you Li Jinqing is concerned, it is not difficult to do, right?"

"You can give it a try!"

"Okay, you and Chen Zezhen will do your best together!" Mingzhu said, "I have already obtained the emperor's will, and I will cross the river to Nanjing in the name of the Jiangnan envoy in a few days. At that time, we will find a chance to meet again." Let's talk!"

"Whoo!"

"Father, my father has just received a secret report that Kangxi has appointed Mingzhu as Jiangnan envoy and governor of water transportation!"

In the Prince's Mansion in Xiangyang, Wu Yingxiong walked into Wu Sangui's study with a secret report just delivered from Nanyang.Wu Sangui was writing letters to Wang Fuchen, Kong Sizhen, and Sun Yanling in the study.

During this period of time, Wang Zhongxiao was having a great time in Nanjing.And Wang Fuchen went to war with Sun Yanling and Ma Xiong in Guangxi.

How strong is Wang Fuchen's fighting power!

Sun Yanling and Ma Xiong were not his opponents at all, and now they were retreating steadily, and they were about to be overwhelmed.So Sun Yanling had no choice but to ask Wu Sanwei to come forward to make peace between the two sides, and also expressed his willingness to divorce his wife and give Kong Sizhen to Wang Fuchen!
But Wang Fuchen is not stupid. He snatched his wife and land, beat Sun Yanling with a black nose and swollen face, and now he has concluded an extremely humiliating (Sun Yanling) peace treaty with Sun Yanling. How could Sun Yanling let it go?

Therefore, Wang Fuchen has become murderous. Not only did he not agree to the reconciliation, he also mobilized tens of thousands of township troops from Guangdong to prepare to kill Sun in one fell swoop.

But Wu Sanwei saw that his words were not working, so he had to write a letter to his "brother", asking Wu Sangui to come out and say something - after all, Sun Yanling and Ma Xiong were his subordinates in name, and he couldn't let them go.

So Wu Sangui had no choice but to bite the bullet and write letters to all parties on the battlefield in Guangxi
But this letter is really difficult to write, Wang Fuchen is so angry that he is a beauty!Wu Sangui is also embarrassed to educate others, what should we do?
