Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

In a secret hall in Qingyun Garden, the thin Zhu Da was burning incense and worshiping to the "Emperor of Ming Dynasty" enshrined in the hall with a solemn expression.At this time, the door of the temple opened with a creak, and Zhu Daoming, who was as light as a civet cat, walked in slowly, but he didn't say much, just quietly watching his brother praying.

After completing the ceremony, Zhu Da did not know what mechanism he pressed, and a statue of a Taoist god descended from the top of the hall, covering the spirit tablet perfectly. After all this was done, Zhu Da with a relaxed expression sat cross-legged on the futon , and then gestured to Zhu Daoming: "Have those few left yet?"

"Yes." Zhu Daoming went to sit opposite Zhu Da. "It's been more than ten days, and I haven't left without saying anything." Speaking of this, he gestured again. "The people sent out found that there were a lot more strange woodcutters and small traders, and there were more people running around under the guise of offering incense. If they were not spies full of captives, they were the ones who attracted them. of."

"Don't panic yourself first." Zhu Da, who was running around to contact the anti-Qing righteous men, was naturally a little more courageous than Zhu Daoming, who had always stayed behind in the monastery. "Even if we are targeted by the tartars, we won't be able to find any openings for a while." Zhu Da thought for a while. "However, those few people staying in Qingyun Garden are a disaster. They should have been sent away earlier. In this way, you tell them that I have returned from Yunyou, and I can see them tomorrow."

"Seeing them? Not right." Zhu Daoming looked at Zhu Da worriedly. "They're in the name of asking for a painting. Otherwise, I'll pick up an old one and use it as a perfunctory one or two. It's the best if I can drive them away. If it really doesn't work, it won't be too late for my brother to see them again."

Zhu Da pondered for a while, then nodded: "That's fine."

On March 39th, the 24th year of the Yongli calendar, the position of the Great Ming Supervisor, which had been vacant for many days, was finally settled. The day before, Zheng Kezang supported Zhu Youge, the ninth generation king of Zheng, as the supervisor. After three worships and three concessions , the 59-year-old Zhu Youge officially ascended the throne that symbolizes the last dignity of Ming Dynasty.

The throne of the supervisory state has been obtained, but Zhu Youge, who knows how much he has, the first thing after taking office is to issue an edict, "There is no need to close the affairs of the army and the state, and he will be appointed and recruited by the general shogunate." Zheng Kezang was able to continue to have the power to rule the entire Dongning and even the entire Ming Dynasty in terms of jurisprudence.

The next day, according to Zheng Kezang's request, Zheng Jianguo issued an imperial edict to confer Zhu Da as Yiyang King and Zhu Daoming as Shicheng State Lieutenant and Shicheng State Zongli. The power of Manchu officials.However, the edict was issued, but it was not known that the Year of the Monkey was about to be sent to Jiangxi, but this did not affect Chen Shengwu's meeting with the Zhu Da brothers.

"A good painting, really a masterpiece." Chen Shengwu greatly admired the painting in front of him, but while talking, his eyes suddenly fell on the signature of the painting beside him. "Will you worship the king?" Chen Shengwu asked, pointing to the inscription. "What do you mean by this? Don't worship the king? What kind of king?"

Zhu Daoming hiccupped in his heart, knowing that the two sides were going to fight hand to hand, so he forced a smile and said, "Mr., you missed it. These words are clearly Niu Shihui."

"Niu Shihui?" Chen Shengwu asked without knowing why. "What's the explanation for that?"

"Back then, the poor Taoist escaped from the world with his brother, and he was the first to enter the Shimen," Zhu Daoming explained. "Yu Shihui is a monk in Niu Shi'an in Xinshan Mountain, and his dharma name is Daohui, so it is customary to sign Niu Shihui on the paintings, which also commemorates that period of time."

"That makes sense." Zhu Daoming managed to let go of his trust, but Chen Shengwu suddenly threw a strong medicine at the next moment. "It's just that this dynasty has always paid much attention to words. First, there are Monk Han Ke's "Bianji Case", Mao Zhongzhuo's "Square Carving Art Preface Case", and then there are "Ming History Case" and "Huang Pei Poetry Case". Wang Yunzidao It’s impossible not to guard against it.”

"Sir, you are serious." Zhu Daoming held back his heart beating wildly and forced a smile. "The poor way is a monk, jumping out of the three realms is not in the five elements, so the so-called not worshiping the king at birth can naturally be interpreted as only worshiping the Taoist and not the king. Sir, are you worrying too much?"

"Worried too much?" Chen Shengwu smiled lightly. "If a Taoist from another family said so, the students might think that they are unfounded, but it is a different matter that the two are descendants of the Zhu family." Zhu Daoming, who was pale, was about to deny it, and Chen Shengwu suddenly asked directly. "Zhu Da is back? Why don't you invite him to see me?"

"Who are you?" Zhu Daoming took two steps back and stood in front of the door. "What is the intention of coming to this view?"

"Brother Daoming, don't panic. The next official is Tong Anbo, Taizi Taifu, Doctor Ronglu, Zhu Guo, Zuodu Imperial Envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, General System, Consultant Joining the Army, Supervising Army Censor. Nephew, Da Zhong Da Fu, Zi Zhi Shao Yin, Ming Fujian Chief Secretary Zuo Counselor, Chen Shengwu is all responsible for recruiting the generals to the Shogunate to join the army." Chen Shengwu said calmly but full of momentum. "Now, under the order of Zhang Guogong and recruiting the general, he sneaked into Nanchang and contacted the anti-Qing people."

Zhu Daoming listened to this series of titles with astonishment, as if in a dream, but the other party knew his details well, denying it was useless, so he could only fight: "You said you are from Dongning, An official of the Ming Dynasty, but why should the poor believe what you say?"

"It's simple." Chen Shengwu walked to the side of Zhu Daoming who was on alert, opened the door, and ordered. "Go and invite Mr. Liu." After a while, a young scholar came into the house, and Chen Shengwu immediately explained to him. "Brother Zi'an, it may be yours now, go talk to Taoist Master Haosheng."

Liu Zian made a series of dazzling gestures at Zhu Daoming. Zhu Daoming was taken aback for a moment, and then he responded subconsciously. The two of you spoke to each other. After a long time, the dubious Zhu Daoming gritted his teeth: "Since my lord is here to look for For my brother, I will talk about it later after the poor Taoist asks my brother."

Chen Shengwu nodded to signal, Zhu Daoming immediately rushed out of the yard, Chen Shengwu waited all day, the time passed little by little, until the sun was high, and the footsteps of two people came from outside the house: "Master Chen, what is this?" This is my brother."

Looking at the old man in front of him, Chen Shengwu and Liu Zian went to the ground together: "The old man's nephew (Mr. Li's disciple) pays his respects to the real person."

"I know why you are here." Zhu Daoming explained Zhu Da's gestures. "However, the current situation is dire, people's hearts are not there, and my two brothers are alone and weak. In any case, they cannot preside over the great cause of anti-Qing and Ming Dynasty."

Liu Zian untied his clothes, took out a pair of letters and handed them over: "Really, this is a letter from Mr. Li Jun to Zhenren."

While Zhu Da was reading the letter, Chen Shengwu said earnestly: "After the Tartars failed to conquer Dongning, the Taiwan army invaded and harassed the three coastal provinces, and the Qing army was forced to move eastward on its own initiative. As a result, the inland area will be empty. He was ordered to reorganize Hanliu, one is to set up an eyes and ears for Dongning in order to communicate with the news, and the other is to take advantage of the situation in the mainland to echo Dongning's ideas."

"Go back and tell Mr. Li." Before Chen Shengwu finished speaking, Zhu Da had already read the letter at a glance. "The Ming Dynasty still has an inch of land, so we are naturally unwilling to be slaves to a subjugated country." Zhu Da paused. "However, this place has been targeted by the Tartars. I'm afraid we won't be able to do anything for Dongning for a while."

There was something in Zhu Da's words, but Chen Shengwu came to beg for help, so he could only pretend that he didn't hear it. Not only that, Chen Shengwu also asked with concern: "Is there any danger to you, Master, if you are being watched by the Tartars?"

"There shouldn't be any danger in a short period of time." Zhu Da said calmly. He has experienced such danger many times, so he naturally has a wealth of experience in dealing with it, so he was just talking. "It's always a good thing that Hanliu needs to be rebuilt. I can also provide the contact information of a few loyal people, but in other respects, there is nothing I can do to help."

Chen Shengwu originally hoped to put Hanliu's contact point in Qingyunpu, but now it is obviously hopeless, but he also came to Nanchang with the idea of ​​being a dead horse as a living horse doctor, so he is not too disappointed at the moment: "The anti-Qing patriots in Jiangxi are already very grateful to you two, and I dare not make too many demands."

Speaking of which, there is no need for the two parties to continue, so Chen Shengwu asked Liu Zian to go out first, and then melted his pen and ink and wrote on a white paper: "I have a set of secret letter contact information here, please find two sets that are exactly the same."

"What, I'm transferred to Fujian? And I have to leave within three days?" Sablin was about to put a long line to catch big fish, but a transfer order arrived. "Hey, can you slow down this matter?" Sablin begged the superior in front of him with downcast eyebrows, and at the same time secretly stuffed a big silver ingot. "The lower officials are watching several major cases and are about to close them."

"Lord Sa, this is a transfer order issued by the Ministry of War, and it's not easy to explain to the admiral." Geha, who proposed the bid, took the money, but sneered in his mouth. "As for the big case? Since when did you, Mr. Qian, manage the case? Mr. Sa, you have exceeded your authority. No wonder Nanchang Mansion is gossiping."

Sablin raised his brows, but the King of Hades liked to see the little devil in trouble, so although he was angry, he still said earnestly: "Please report back to the admiral, it is related to the big case of treason."

"Lord Sa, anyone can succeed without leaving this world." The seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, not to mention that Goha, who came to issue the order, has a sixth-rank official status, which is no lower than Sablin's official position, so he speaks halfway reprimanded. "Even if there is such a credit, Mr. Sa would not be able to swallow it alone. It is better to take it out and distribute it to each family, so as to form a good relationship and save Taiwan and Nanchang from giving us green camps in Gan Province. "

"Fuck!" Looking at the domineering Gohayan's back, Sablin spit on the ground. To be honest, if the governor of Jiangxi behind him hadn't resigned, how could Goha, the admiral of the yamen, dare to follow him? Grinning. "Come on, bring Aklatu here." Sablin had no choice but to prepare to accept it early, but the development of the matter was beyond his imagination. "What, Aklatu has already been transferred to Hangzhou to garrison the Eight Banners? You bastard, you are planning to take credit from me. Pooh! It's a good idea, even if it rots in the pot, I won't hand it over. We will never turn around , the water does not turn and the road turns, just wait and see"
