In fact, Zhu Cihong had already thought about who the lord of this mountain country would be, and he would give it to the son of Zhu Cijiong, the acting king.

Acting King Zhu Cijiong has a great merit - in those years, he pinned down many Qing troops in the big ravines of Datong Mansion and Luliang Mountain, so that Dolgon could not go south with all his strength, and helped Zhu Cihong through the most dangerous years!

Later, Zhu Cijiong recovered Yulin Town and Ningxia Town, repelled the Shunzhi Emperor who drove the expedition in person, and later recovered Datong Mansion, and also sent troops to Mobei to fight with the Khalkha tribes, and finally won a complete victory.

So during this time, when Emperor Zhu proposed to let the ministers evaluate the twenty meritorious heroes of overcoming difficulties, everyone commented and commented, and the first meritorious hero was Zhu Cijiong, the acting king!

Wu Sanfu, Shi Kefa, Li Yan, Wu Xiang, Zhu Chunchen, Zhu Chunjie, Huang Degong, Gao Jie, Li Ruolian, Yan Yingyuan, Li Yuanyin, Qi Yuanbi, Wu Guoyong, Qin Mingtao, Wang Qi, Hao Yongzhong, Feng Sizhong, Cao Youyi, Shen Tingyang, Yang Zhan, Zeng Ying and others can only be ranked behind Zhu Cijiong, not to mention Wu Sangui, the third minister, and Jiang Xuan, the second minister, the two of them are in the bottom of the twenty-four meritorious heroes......

This first hero of the martyrdom is now in Yingtianfu, and he came back from Datong Mansion for the purpose of establishing the Luzon State.

Although this Luzon Kingdom is the "private property" that his own mother, Empress Zhou Shang, won for him, to be honest, he didn't care about it.

Because he had already inquired with Zhu Cizhao, he knew that Luzon, like other hot places in the south of the sky, was a place full of plagues and miasma. Although there is abundant rain and a lot of flat land, the people of the Central Plains cannot adapt to the humid climate there and are easily infected with epidemics. The death rate among immigrants is very high, probably more than 50 percent!

In addition, Zhu Cizhao also told Zhu Cijiong that there are many typhoons in Luzon, and sometimes there are more than ten or twenty typhoons a year! And the wind is very strong...... Strong winds and heavy rain swept by, causing great damage to crops.

Therefore, although the territory of Luzon is not small, and the land looks relatively flat, the development is very slow, and before the Spanish occupation, Luzon did not even have a decent country.

Zhu Cijiong, who has been a local leader for a long time, knows that it is difficult to start a business and it is not easy to open up wasteland, so he doesn't want to jump into the pit of Luzon - this pit is a bottomless pit, and if he really jumps into it, he may go bankrupt.

He came south this time to "let out" Luzon...... This King of Luzon, whoever has the ability to be the king, he is not uncommon anyway. It doesn't matter if his son has no place to be the king, anyway, he is already the "richest man" among the kings of the Ming Dynasty, and the family property is enough for his sons to share.

In addition, several of his sons are also relatively promising, and several of them have been admitted to "famous schools" such as Jiangwutang, Nanjing University Hall, and Tianjin Taixuetang, so they don't have to worry about having no way out.

Today, when Zhu Cihong was holding a court meeting in the Huangji Palace to discuss military aid to Zhunger, he was pretending to be a big filial son in Renshou Palace to pit his father Chongzhen to the emperor!

"Father, my son's son is already content with an Anbei Domain, and I don't want any Luzon anymore. Moreover, Erchen has been king in the north for a long time, and he is familiar with the Mongols, and he also adapts to the climate in the north, if he really wants to make a vassal country, he will go north to grab the territory of the Rakshasas, why go south to the hot and humid land?

Besides, Erchen still has so many younger brothers, and most of them have no way out now, so the father might as well pick one of them to go to Luzon as king! ”

This is a true filial son!

Emperor Chongzhen was satisfied when he heard this, and his face was about to bloom with a smile.

During this time, the trading of Luzon had already been opened, and 18 royal palaces had already invested, claimed 250 li (square mile) of earl's land, and began to organize people to go to Luzon to explore. Chongzhen's eyes were hot, and his Concubine Hu Ai's eyes were red, and he couldn't wait to divide half of Luzon to play by himself. But Queen Zhou stopped and didn't let Chongzhen and Concubine Hu interfere, which made Emperor Chongzhen a little depressed.

I didn't expect that today, Cijiong, the kid, let it ...... by himself This is filial piety! I don't know how much better than that rebel!

Emperor Chongzhen asked, "Cijiong, you and the rebel...... Did your brother tell me about it? ”

"It's been ......" When Zhu Cijiong said this, a sigh suddenly came from his ears.

This is Queen Zhou sighing - Cijiong, this kid is honest, and he is too much worse than his brother Cijiong......

"What did Brother Chun say?" Queen Zhou asked busily.

"My brother didn't say anything." Zhu Cijiong replied.

"Didn't say anything...... Emperor Chongzhen was a little nervous.

Zhu Cijiong smiled and said: "Father, if you can recommend a county king to take over the throne of Luzon, then the eldest brother will definitely agree." ”

That's right, someone jumped into the pit, what reason does Zhu Cihong have not to let his brother come out?

"Really?" Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while, "Among my sons, except for a few of you who were born before Jiashen, Ci Wei and Ci Yi are more capable......

Zhu Ciwei is the very blessed Fu King, and he is still studying in Yingtiantaixue. And Zhu Ciyi is the son of Concubine Hu, born in the first year of Hong Xing, he is 18 years old this year, and he didn't get anything after graduating from middle school, so he gnawed at home and waited for him to reach the age of 20 to be crowned the king of the county.

This kid ...... To be honest, it's not as good as Zhu Cihuan. Zhu Cihuan is a master who no one loves when he is a child, of course, no one cares, everything has to rely on himself.

And Zhu Ciyi was spoiled by Chongzhen and Concubine Hu, and he didn't like to read when he was young, and he didn't spend much money. After graduating from middle school, he didn't want to live in Laoshan and Pukou, which were boring to death, so he asked Chongzhen to live in the Xipu Courtyard in Nanjing, and went to the Qinhuai River every day to fool around.

Of course, Chongzhen hopes that Zhu Ciyi can go to Luzon Island to be the king, but he feels that this is a bit uncomfortable for Zhu Cijiong - now that Zhu Cijiong, Zhu Cizhao, and Zhu Cihuan all have feudal towns or feudal states, Zhu Cixiong is ranked behind Zhu Cihuan, so he should be the king of Luzon!

So Chongzhen was embarrassed to speak, and when he was worried about how to push Zhu Ciyi out, someone had already shouted "Long live the master".

It turned out that Zhu Cihong knew that Zhu Cijiong had come to Renshou Palace after the meeting between the two governments, so he came to meet his brother.

Zhu Cijiong and Zhu Cijiong are the same father and mother, they are close in age, and they look very similar, but Zhu Cijiong is slightly taller and Zhu Cijiong is slightly shorter.

In addition, the older Zhu Cihong looks young, while the young Zhu Cijiong looks old - he owes a lot of debts and has a hard time being an old man on Luliang Mountain!

"Third brother, there's no need to salute."

Zhu Cijiong saw that Zhu Cijiong was about to salute, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop him, and then he bowed to Chongzhen and Zhou Hou, and finally sat down with Zhu Cijiong.

"Third brother," after Zhu Cihong sat down, he asked his brother with a smile, "You are here to bid farewell to the king of Luzon with your father and queen mother?" ”

"yes!" Zhu Cijiong smiled, "The younger brother already has a feudal town, so he should give the opportunity to the younger brothers." ”

"Oh." Zhu Cihong nodded, and said in his heart: Zhu Cihong is a good charter officer, and he is very smart, so he shouldn't jump into the fire pit...... If he doesn't jump into the fire pit, that's Zhu Ciyi's bastard.

Thinking of this, he asked Chongzhen with a smile, "Father, do you have a candidate?" ”

"There you have, there you have ....... I want to choose one of Ci Yi and Ci Yi. Chongzhen said, "I just don't know who to pick to go to Luzon?" ”

"Then let the ninth brother go." Zhu Cihong smiled, "The sixth child is too fat, he is afraid of heat when he is young, and he doesn't like to move around, so he can't go to Luzon." ”

"I also think Ciyi is more suitable."

Chongzhen was satisfied, but Zhou Hou was unhappy again, and snorted: "What about Cijiong's sons?" Only one can attack the prince, and the others are all white......"

Zhu Cihong laughed, then glanced at his brother, and looked at Zhu Cijiong with a shudder, not to mention complaining more about his mother.

"Queen Mother, don't worry," Zhu Cihong smiled, "Erchen has already found a good place for the second brother to build a country!" ”

"Where?" Zhou Hou hurriedly asked.

"In the Northwest!" Zhu Cihong said, "Cut a piece of land from the Junggar Kingdom. ”

Zhu Cijiong knew that it was not good, and hurriedly frowned: "Brother Huang, he can't agree to the monk, right?" ”
