"Folk girl Zheng Haizhu comes to see His Majesty."

In the Forbidden City of Nanjing, in the Qianqing Palace, a young girl saluted Liu Sheng.

This woman is Zheng Haizhu, the eldest daughter of the Zheng family, who is eighteen years old.

"Flat body."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zheng Haizhu raised her head, boldly looked at Liu Sheng, her pretty face turned slightly red, and she lowered her head, her heart beating wildly.

When she first learned that she would be sent to Nanjing to become the concubine of Emperor Da'ei, Zheng Haizhu was actually not very willing.

Ordinary women might think of flying up a branch and becoming a phoenix.

But as the eldest daughter of the Zheng family in Nan'an, although her biological mother was not the official wife, she was still considered a concubine.

The Zheng family dominates the southeastern sea, with a fortune of hundreds of millions, thousands of warships, one to two hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and millions of people who rely on the Zheng family for their livelihood. It is not an exaggeration to call them a prince.

Even though her status is not comparable to that of the princes and noble ladies of the past, she can still be regarded as one of the few wealthy ladies in the world.

With such a family background, even if she is not the legitimate daughter, she will basically not be wronged no matter which family she marries into.

In other words, almost no one dared to let her suffer.

But marrying into the Heavenly Family is not necessarily the case.

Not to mention that the emperor must have many concubines, and it is difficult for her to enjoy exclusive favors; if she suffers any grievances in the deep palace, it is estimated that the Zheng family will not be able to support her; or in other words, as long as the fundamental interests of the Zheng family are not involved, she will not do anything for her. She fights against Tianjia.

Although she was not married, she could see that all the concubines and concubines in her father's back house were working hard to win her father's favor. She knew that the life of a concubine in the palace was probably not as good as that of a concubine in the Zheng family's mansion. As many as Mrs.

Not to mention, the Emperor Da'ei was the founder of the country. He conquered the world by force. He must have great majesty. Most of his height was five big and three thick.

However, when they met today, Zheng Haizhu realized that she was wrong.

This Emperor Da'an was indeed quite majestic and tall, but he had nothing to do with the five major figures and three thick men. Instead, he was exceptionally handsome, with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, which almost made her fall in love at first sight!

In the past, her ideal husband tended to be a bookish young man like her eldest brother (Zheng Sen).

Seeing Liu Sheng, she realized that maybe she liked this kind of heroic, tall and handsome man more.

Liu Sheng was also sizing up Zheng Haizhu.

In terms of facial appearance alone, Zheng Haizhu can only be said to be average and top-notch. She is on the same level as the Red Lady, Bai Taiwei, and Li Xiangyun, but slightly inferior to Li Lingfei. Compared with Xu Wan, the gap is even more obvious.

After all, Xu Wan was selected in the draft, and her appearance is the best in Liu Sheng's currently small harem.

However, Zheng Haizhu has a very good figure.

He is estimated to be about 1.7 meters tall. He is tall and plump, with skin as white as snow, willow eyebrows and starry eyes. His facial features are grand yet delicate, and he looks slightly heroic.

According to Liu Sheng's understanding, Zheng Haizhu's biological mother, the Zhang family, although not from a wealthy family, was still considered a wealthy family in Fuzhou. It was said that she was a branch of the Zhang family in Pucheng during the Song Dynasty.

Married to Mrs. Zheng again, it is not surprising that she could give birth to such a daughter.

Afterwards, Liu Sheng chatted with Zheng Haizhu for a few words.

"Is your father still in good health?"

"My father is in good health, but he likes to be quiet and hates being active."

"As a general, it's better for him to move more. I will need him in our ocean management in the future."

"The daughter of the people turned around and wrote a letter to advise her father."

"···"

After the chat, Liu Sheng ordered the eunuchs and palace maids to send Zheng Haizhu and the four accompanying maids to Xianfu Palace in the West Sixth Palace for resettlement.

The next day, Liu Sheng issued an order to confer Zheng Zhilong's eldest daughter Zheng Haizhu as a concubine, and rewarded her with gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin treasures, etc.

The number of people in Liu Sheng's harem thus increased to six.

On the same day, Liu Sheng issued an order to establish the Donghai Navy and Nanhai Navy.

These two naval divisions were both modeled on the Yangtze River Navy, consisting of three brigades. Each brigade was equipped with about a thousand sea-going ships as warships (mostly small boats).

Liu Changhe, the former commander of the Yangtze Navy Division, was promoted to the commander of the Nanhai Navy and was awarded the seal of General Zhenhai.

The commander of the Yangtze River Navy was replaced by former deputy commander Qiu Ye - Qiu Ye joined the Weibu relatively early and served in the fishing and hunting team, expedition team, fishing and hunting group, and the Yangtze River Navy, with many military exploits.

Zheng Zhilong was also appointed deputy commander of the Nanhai Navy. Shi Tianfu, the former Zheng family navy general, was appointed as the commander of the first brigade of the Nanhai Navy.

Huang Binqing, the former deputy general of the Zhoushan Navy of the Ming Dynasty, was appointed as the commander of the Second Brigade of the Nanhai Navy.

Zhang Huai was appointed commander of the Third Brigade of the Nanhai Navy - this man was also from the Wei tribe and was originally the deputy brigade commander of the Yangtze Navy.

He was also promoted to the former commander of the 15th Brigade of the Standing Army, Hu Dongliu, as the commander of the Donghai Division, and Huang Fei as the deputy commander of the Donghai Division.

Huang Fei, courtesy name Wenlu, was born in Nanchang and his surname was Tu. He was the nephew of Huang Long, the former commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town in the Ming Dynasty.

Later, Huang Long died in the battle against Hou Jin Dynasty and had no children. Huang Fei changed his surname to Huang and inherited his army. He was appointed by the Ming court as the commander-in-chief and commander-in-chief of the naval aid and suppression force, stationed in Laizhou.

Historically, after the Qing army entered the Pass, he went south and was dispatched by the Hongguang court. Later, he was defeated and died fighting against the Qing invaders.

At this time and space, he followed Zhang Guowei and other former Ming officials from Shandong to Dawei.

Because he surrendered with the navy, his treatment was quite high.

If he hadn't been a direct descendant of the Kuaibu, he would actually be more suitable for the position of commander of the Donghai Division than Hu Dongliu.

The commander of the 1st Brigade of the Donghai Marine Corps is Fu Tiangui, a direct descendant of the Kuaibu Division. His resume is similar to that of Qiu Ye. He was previously the deputy brigade commander of the Yangtze River Navy.

The commander of the second brigade was Tu Mengde, who was formerly a staff general of the former Ming Navy under Huang Fei.

The commander of the third brigade is Zhu Shiding, who was formerly the former Minghu Guangxun Jiangdu Division. After being surrendered, he joined the Yangtze River Navy and participated in the attacks on Nanjing and Zhejiang. He was promoted to deputy brigade commander of the Yangtze Navy.

Also.

Zheng Hongkui was transferred to the post of brigade commander of the 1st Brigade of the Hailongwei Guards.

Hailongwei currently only has one brigade, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Zheng Hongkui is the leader of Hailongwei.

Zheng Hongkui's original name is Zheng Zhifeng, and he is the third younger brother of Zheng Zhilong - the fifth Zheng brothers, dragon, tiger, phoenix, leopard and peng.

The second eldest son, Zheng Zhihu, died in battle in his early years.

The fifth child, Zheng Zhipeng, was raised by his father Zheng Shibiao as a youngest son, but he was raised useless and incompetent.

The fourth child, Zheng Zhibao, joined the imperial examination.

Only the third youngest, Zheng Hongkui, is still in the army. He was a military officer in the Ming Dynasty and was the deputy commander-in-chief of Mingden Prefecture.

As for the name change, it was to avoid taboos in the Ming court.

The reason why Liu Sheng dared to hand over the position of Hailongwei brigade commander to Zheng Hongkui was to win the Zheng family's heart, and even Zheng Hongkui's own heart.

Secondly, starting from deputy brigade commander Yan Yingyuan, all the generals of the 1st Hailongwei Brigade are Liu Sheng's close associates and direct relatives. Even if the brigade commander Zheng Hongkui wants to do something extraordinary, it is impossible.

The generals of Hailongwei can learn from Zheng Hongkui's navigation knowledge, naval warfare skills and experience.

It can be said to serve multiple purposes.

A few days later, Liu Sheng ordered the formation of the Yellow River Navy, but currently only one brigade was given.

Chang Deng, commander of the First Brigade of the Yellow River Navy, was formerly the chief officer of the Navy under Zuo Liangyu; deputy brigade commander Liu Wenxiu was originally one of Zhang Xianzhong's four adopted sons.

The Yangtze River Navy, Yellow River Navy, Donghai Navy, and Nanhai Navy are all under the control of the Navy Commandery Office of the Military Academy.

At this point, Da'ei's naval system has been initially established.

Although there are still many deficiencies, the warships are even more deficient. They can only be slowly supplemented and improved in the future.

···
After setting up the framework of Da'ei's four major naval divisions, Liu Sheng also relaxed as the new year was approaching.

He stayed at Xianfu Palace for several days and seemed to be very fond of Zheng Haizhu.

This inevitably makes Li Lingfei and Xu Wan feel a little resentful - although they have been exposed to a lot of rain and dew in the past year or so, they have never been pregnant, so naturally they hope to have more.

However, Liu Sheng didn't pay much attention to the harem. In addition to releasing his energy normally, he also did not forget to strengthen his physical exercise if he had free time.

After coming here for a few years, he is already over thirty, so he should pay more attention to taking care of his body.

After breakfast that day, Liu Sheng was walking in the imperial garden with Lady Hong and Liu Rui (the eldest prince) when a palace maid reported that Ma Jinshui had something to report.

Liu Sheng immediately came to Tianxin Hall.

After Ma Jinshui saluted, he presented a compiled intelligence document.

"Your Majesty, a secret report came from Shaanxi Xunfeng Guard that Shunjun and Qinglu have formed an alliance." (End of this chapter)
