That night, Wu Zheng went to Mrs. Zhongyi's mansion.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness King Wu." Gao Guiying, who was informed, personally led people to the door of the mansion to greet them.

Looking at this old lady Xu and Gao Guiying, who was still in style, Wu Zheng smiled politely: "I haven't seen you for a long time, but my lady's demeanor is still ...... I didn't have any other intentions this time, I just ...... I want to chat and gossip with my wife. ”

Gao Guiying is a straight person, she smiled heartily, and said humbly: "Your Highness has every opportunity, it is not easy to come to my mansion...... Gui Ying couldn't ask for it. Your Highness please! ”

Wu Zheng laughed and said, "It seems that Madame is reproaching me for coming less ......." ”

The two talked and laughed all the way and entered the main hall of the house together.

After some cold noise, it was Gao Guiying who cut directly to the point, "Your Highness is busy with affairs, if you want to come today, there must be something important to discuss, right?" ”

"Madame is wise." Wu Zheng smiled and lowered his head to take a sip of tea, but did not continue.

Gao Guiying's eyes flashed, and he asked with a smile: "Your Highness has won a hundred battles across the battlefield, so much so that the soldiers and civilians of Jiangnan regard Your Highness as the god of war...... But today, His Highness wants to stop talking, which is not in line with the reputation of the god of war. ”

Wu Zheng raised his head, looked at Gao Guiying and said, "I really want to talk about it, but I really saw Madame, and I will ...... for a while I don't know where to start. ”

Gao Guiying suddenly laughed and said boldly: "What can't you say?" If His Highness wanted others to hear this, it would be a misunderstanding...... I thought that His Highness wanted to be against me. ”

Wu Zheng was a little surprised, the woman in front of him was definitely not a knowledgeable woman, but the sharpness in her words made Wu Zheng speechless for a while.

Although Wu Zheng really didn't mean to be unfavorable to Gao Guiying, the purpose of coming this time was very clear, that is, Guangxinwei.

With power coming out of the barrel of a gun, Wu Zheng from later generations forgot anything, and it was impossible to forget this wise saying of a great man.

If the 200,000 Northern Expeditionary Army are firmly under the control of Wu Zheng, it is indeed not true, Guangxinwei is alone under the rule of the General's Mansion, which has become a special case, in addition to having no foreign affairs power, but has independent financial and judicial powers, and the General's Mansion needs to provide appropriate supplies and help to Guangxinwei.

This is obviously an extraterritorial privilege, but it is also before the loyal battalion returns to Wu Zheng, the two sides negotiated and reached a consensus, simply put, it is equivalent to listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement, of course, its power is slightly less, but it already has the flavor of feudalism.

This is not that Wu Zheng did not consider it comprehensively in advance, in fact, it was also a helpless move at that time, there were still tens of thousands of Qing troops entrenched in Zhejiang, and Jiangxi bordered Zhejiang.

Therefore, Wu Zheng's idea at that time was that as long as the loyal battalion did not collude with the Qing army, then it could be a little indulgent.

This also has Gao Guiying canonized Mrs. Zhongyi (Mrs. Guo) by the Yixing Dynasty, Li Guo and Li Guo were named the Duke of Kui Guo, Liu Tiren was named the Duke of Anhui Guo, and Gao Yigong was named the Duke of Yingguo.

This is extremely generous for an army that returns to the righteousness.

But now it's different, the reason why it's different is not that Wu Zheng repented, nor did Guangxin Wei rebel, but that the situation had changed.

The Qing army in Zhejiang has long been cleared, and eighty percent of Jiangxi has been recovered, and it is only a matter of time before the Qing army in Fujian and Guangdong is annihilated.

Then, a "not very obedient" army is hoarded by his side, which is extremely threatening to Wu Zheng, and even no less threatening than the clan.

The most important thing is that Guangxinwei is a little different, it has expanded from 20,000 people to 50,000 people in an instant, which is ...... Wu Zheng couldn't tolerate it.

Gao Guiying saw that Wu Zheng was silent, and slowly restrained the smile on her face, she said: "I'm just a woman, if something makes His Highness unhappy, I hope His Highness will not be guilty." ”

Wu Zheng nodded slowly.

Gao Guiying said: "The loyalty camp is the old department of the first husband, and the first husband and the Ming can be said to be incompatible, but at the time of the invasion of foreign enemies, the destruction of the country and the collapse of the family, and the turmoil of the mountains and rivers, the first husband left a testament to the Ming Dynasty to resist the Qing Dynasty, and the children and generals obeyed the orders of the first husband, which is why His Royal Highness adopted the loyalty camp." ”

Wu Zheng nodded again in approval and praised: "King Chuang is a true hero!" ”

Gao Guiying said with satisfaction: "His Royal Highness is also a true hero!" His Royal Highness turned the tide, with the land of Shaoxing Mansion to build more than 30 mansions of the New Dynasty today, and the Northern Expeditionary Army drank the Yellow River, which was admired by the world, and Gui Ying was also convinced. ”

Wu Zhengzhan said politely: "Madame has an overreputation. ”

Gao Guiying changed her tone and said, "But Your Highness should know that Lianming is not Guiming after all." Now half of the south of the Yangtze River has been settled, and the Yongli Dynasty and the Jianxin Dynasty have divided half of each ...... Dare to ask Your Highness, where do you want to put me? ”

Wu Zheng was silent for a while, and said: "Madame should know that the Great Western Army returned to the Ming Dynasty and Li Dingguo was crowned King of Jin." ”

Gao Guiying said with a hint of sarcasm: "That's Emperor Yongli's mind like the sea, dare to ask His Royal Highness, can the Jianxin Dynasty award the prince to Guo'er and the generals?" ”

Wu Zheng was silent twice, for a long time, shook his head and said, "No." ”

Gao Guiying took a long breath and said, "Your Highness is a real person. ”

Wu Zheng smiled bitterly: "In front of real people, why bother to lie? ”

"Your Highness."

"But although it can't be canonized, but Guangxin Wei belongs to the Northern Expeditionary Army, and all its benefits are not under the guards, I don't understand, what does the lady and the three princes have to do? At the time of the fierce battle in Jiangbei, the General's Office issued a second conscription order, and only 10,000 people were awarded to Guangxinwei, but Guangxinwei recruited new soldiers and recruited old troops in just a few months, and the number of troops surged by 30,000...... Madame, can you give Lone a satisfactory explanation? ”

Gao Guiying said calmly: "Your Highness is too worried, this is just a self-preservation move for us." ”

"What's the explanation?"

At that time, His Royal Highness was trapped in Huai'an City for more than a month, and the General's Mansion was helpless to deal with it, so he issued two conscription orders in a row, and the hearts of the people in the various provinces under his rule fluctuated...... Your Highness should know that if Your Highness ...... There is an accident, we and Guangxin Wei are bound to be squeezed out by the guards, rather than being unable to protect themselves at the end of the day, it is better to increase the strength, does Your Highness think this is wrong? ”

Wu Zheng raised his eyebrows, and unceremoniously pierced: "What Madame said is very reasonable, but this is not the case, if it is just that the expansion of troops is excessive, Madame's reason is barely reasonable, but without the permission of the Gu He General's Mansion, Guangxinwei attacked the west without authorization, I am afraid this cannot be explained only by self-preservation, right?" ”

Gao Guiying hesitated for a moment, looked at Wu Zheng, and said after a while: "I said, if His Royal Highness really has an accident, in order to avoid being controlled by others, Guangxinwei can only expand the land and population to increase his own strength, what's wrong with this?" ”

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "This also makes sense...... But now, Lone is safe and sound, right in front of Madame, then, according to Madame's worries, there is no longer there...... Should Lone order Guangxinwei to be withdrawn and Fuzhou, Linjiang, Yuanzhou and other places under the direct command of the General's Mansion? ”

Gao Guiying's face changed, and the kid in front of her ...... It's really tough!
