After a long while, Wu Zheng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "You remember, what I want is not to defeat them, they are not qualified to be my enemies. My enemy is on the other side of the river, and I will take credit for you when the time comes. But if you want to destroy the court, I will pick up the ancestral grave of your old Ma family! ”

Ma Shiying's heart was awe-inspiring, he instantly recalled that he was afraid that he had made a mistake in expressing his loyalty, and hurriedly remedied: "Ma is mediocre, he misunderstood the meaning of the lord, and he really deserves death." It's just that...... I hope the lord will make it clear. ”

Wu Zheng let out a long breath and sighed: "Look at them, stare at them." Ying Tianfu is my back, and there is no room for error. ”

Ma Shiying hurriedly responded: "My subordinates understand, the lord wants his subordinates to become a pair of eyes and ears of the lord in Yingtianfu." ”

Wu Zheng saw that Ma Shiying understood, so he slowed down his tone, "There is Zhang Cangshui in political affairs, and there is Xingguo Gong in the military, I just need to take care of those people's small actions in private for me, and in addition, you have to take care of the money bags of the household department for me." ”

When Ma Shiying heard this, he was pleasantly surprised: "What does the lord mean, his subordinates are in the main household?" ”

Wu Zheng stared at Ma Shiying, and said coldly: "I don't care what others say about you being corrupt, but I don't think you are as rumored, as for what it is, it will take time to prove my judgment." This is a good opportunity for you to win the name behind you, I hope you don't make mistakes, and don't live up to the expectations of your father. If the rumors are true, this guild will cut off your dirty hands as soon as possible. ”

Ma Shiying looked unusually solemn, "Back to the lord's words, more than two years after the fall of the Hongguang Dynasty, Ma has traveled thousands of miles, and he is still in the world, and his intention is nothing more than to win the name after his death." The lord can rest assured that from today onwards, his subordinates will never mislead others and themselves. ”

"Okay, that's good." Wu Zheng didn't feel melancholy in his heart, would it really be like what Ma Shiying said? There are too few people available around me.

"Lord, what about the message of Hangzhou Mo Lao?"

"What the hell is going on?" Wu Zheng asked again, he was not as upright as Qian Sule, and he would think that Mo Zhi would not explain the matter clearly and let himself return to Hangzhou.

Only Qian Sule would believe that Ma Shiying was telling the truth.

Sure enough, Ma Shiying reported: "Mo Lao sent a message, Zhang Mingzhen led the army to vote for the lord." ”

Wu Zheng was stunned, "Zhang Mingzhen, who joined the army under Huang Binqing, the chief soldier of Zhoushan? ”

"Yes. According to the messenger's report, Zhang Mingzhen led more than 1,200 men under his command and drove dozens of warships to Hangzhou. ”

Wu Zheng was a little puzzled, he knew Zhang Mingzhen, he was a famous anti-Qing general in history, but he was not famous yet, and he was just in charge.

Zhoushan Water Division, also belongs to the Ming army sequence, when King Lu supervised the country, originally belonged to the Shaoxing Imperial Court, and later Zhu Yujian ascended the throne in Fujian to establish the Longwu Dynasty, Zhoushan General Huang Binqing coveted the official position and turned to the Longwu Dynasty.

Not long ago, because of the Zhengshuo dispute, the Longwu Dynasty and the Shaoxing Mansion beheaded each other, and the trouble was inextricable, although Wu Zheng was only a hundred households at that time, and was fighting with the Qing army that invaded the Shaoxing Mansion, and could not participate in it, but such a major event has also been heard.

Now that the two sides are incompatible, Zhang Mingzhen suddenly came to vote, could it be that something has happened?

This matter is very important, and if it is not handled properly, not only will Wu Zheng's reputation be damaged, but it will also cause another conflict between the two sides.

It really made Wu Zheng feel a little tricky.

Wu Zheng pondered for a while, and said: "Reply to Mo Lao, treat Zhang Mingzhen and the soldiers who come with me well, I will return to Hangzhou to deal with it within three days." ”

"Yes."

……。

Contrary to everyone's expectations, the dynasty will be as smooth as yesterday.

Chen Zilong, as the head of the five cabinet ministers, easily occupied the position of first assistant.

Ma Shiying entered the main household department, and entered the cabinet as a scholar of the household department and a scholar of Dongge University.

There is no tension at all as I imagined.

However, only a few people know in their hearts that this is the result of an exchange of interests.

But it was a good thing, and the Great Dynasty ended in a peaceful atmosphere.

It was unanimously passed to take Princess Changping in charge of the country, change the yuan to "Qingtai", and the following year was the first year of Qingtai.

It was also established that all military and political affairs were subject to the resolution of the cabinet, and the cabinet officially became the highest authority of the Qingtai Dynasty.

This time, the several forces shook hands and made peace, so that the Qingtai Dynasty quickly got rid of internal friction and entered a period of rapid recovery.

The counties under the jurisdiction of the nine prefectures were quickly brought under the rule of the imperial court.

The people began to settle down slowly, and the hearts of the people began to coalesce.

But Wu Zheng never imagined that the first major event faced by the Qingtai Dynasty was not the threat from the Qing court in Jiangbei, but the request for help from the Longwu Dynasty in the south.

Zodiac week is coming.

Just when Wu Zheng had arranged the affairs of Tianfu and was about to return to Hangzhou to deal with the issue of Zhang Mingzhen and his soldiers coming to vote, Huang Daozhou, who was a pivotal figure in the Longwu Dynasty in the south, who was then the secretary of the Ministry of Officials and the secretary of the Ministry of War, and the scholar of Wuyingdian, came.

This is the first person in the Longwu Dynasty, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the first assistant.

With such a weighty person, he personally sent an envoy, which means that the Longwu Dynasty is already extremely critical.

The civil and military forces of the Qingtai Dynasty did not even have time to vent the resentment of the envoys who beheaded each other that day, and in just three days, the third great court meeting began.

Unlike the previous two Pilgrimages, the atmosphere of this Pilgrimage became very depressing.

Those who can stand above the court are not fools, and everyone knows the consequences of the fall of the Longwu Dynasty in their hearts.

But it's one thing to know in your heart, it's another thing to do it.

There are always people who want to use their own selfishness to ignore the current situation.

And there are by no means a few such people, even in the so-called clear stream, there is no shortage of such people.

Huang Daozhou, a native of Fujian, was a scholar in the second year of the Apocalypse, and successively served as the editor of the Hanlin Academy and the Shao Zhan Shi of the Zhan Mansion.

After the death of the Ming Dynasty, he reached the top in one fell swoop in the Longwu Dynasty and served as two Shangshu.

This kind of rocket-like promotion is nothing new in the troubled times of the past few years.

But Huang Dao Zhou became famous, and he had to be the official of Kedao at the time, to defend Qian Longxi's grievances, oppose Yang Sichang's proposal, and directly advise the emperor.

Huang Daozhou, who had passed the age of not being confused, was deeply influenced by his teacher Yuan Keli (a famous minister in the Wanli period, who was first engraved by the Wanli Emperor for his outspoken admonition, then demoted and then admonished, and then dismissed and returned to his hometown for 26 years).

At that time, when Yuan Chonghuan's case was discovered, many officials were implicated and held responsible, and Qian Longxi, a former university scholar, was also implicated in death.

When the incident happened, no one dared to say anything.

Only Huang Daozhou was excited by righteous indignation, and the grass was sparse in the middle of the night, and he knocked on the stumbling to defend Qian Longxi.

In the song, he directly pointed to the fault of Emperor Chongzhen, "Killing people today will only damage the country."

Emperor Chongzhen was furious when he saw it, and "slandered Qu Bao" and ordered it to play back.

Huang Daozhou defended again, showing that he was only careful, "leaving this truth for the country's system, side plan, morale, and people's hearts."

He resisted the "several sittings" this time and was demoted to three levels.

But also because of his arguments, Qian Longxi will not die.

Zodiac Zhou became famous for his criticism.
