Chapter 164: I Wish He Were a Loyal Servant (Subscription Requested, 6/10)
"The princes of the Manchu Dynasty are all unworthy of creation, Cheng'en, what kind of character do you say this Annanbo is?"
"You have also seen the secret music handed over by Zhang Kentang."
"Tell me about it."
Emperor Chongzhen woke up from the joy of a million taels of silver, and his mind couldn't help but think of the person who gave the silver. It was not those dignitaries who were slaughtered, but Annanbo Zheng Zhilong.
It wasn't Zheng Zhilong's idea, it wasn't Zheng Zhilong who personally went into battle, why did Emperor Chongzhen collect the one hundred thousand taels of silver again?
But he also knows very well that after this incident, Zheng Zhilong can be regarded as deeply offended the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty and the relatives of the noble emperors.
As an emperor, Emperor Chongzhen is absolutely not as smooth and flexible as Wang Chengen in terms of human sophistication, which is due to his identity.
But even if it was the emperor, Emperor Chongzhen himself didn't dare to use force on the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, because he couldn't afford the backlash, what did Zheng Zhilong think about making such a choice?
"Long live Mingjian. The slave maid thought that Annanbo was really bent on cutting off the land overseas and sealing the king. That's why he didn't care about the civil and military nobles of the Manchu Dynasty, and only focused on the emperor, because he knew very well that only the emperor could give what he wanted.
"Zheng Zhilong was born as a pirate, and since he went ashore to recruit peace, he has been bent on taking off his old skin and changing his face." Since Zheng Zhilong came to prominence, many of his things Wang Chengen has reported to Emperor Chongzhen.
Judging from Zheng Zhilong's actions in the past ten years, he really wants to integrate into the mainstream.
"But since he wants to be decent, the court will raise merit and reward, as in the case of North Korea, that is the most decent."
"Moreover, Zheng's economy depends entirely on sea trade, and in the future, Zheng will establish a country in the land of Dayuan, and he will not let go of sea trade. His people have deep roots in Fujian, especially in the Quanzhou area, the local Qianshou only heard that there was the Zheng family but not the imperial court, Zheng Zhilong really went overseas, how could he put his homeland away? The slave heard that Zheng Zhilong had built an Anping City in his hometown, and Chen Bing deployed cannons as his lair. If he doesn't want to discard it and wants to ......follow the example of the mirror, then wouldn't everything have to live long live your nod? ”
Emperor Chongzhen really didn't think as deeply as Wang Chengen, and now after listening to it, he feels ......, well, it makes sense, it makes sense.
"Annanbo has made great contributions to the imperial court, as long as he can be sincere in the future, why can't I meet these requirements?"
The imperial court withdrew the southern capital, and the imperial court will only rely on the Zheng family in more places. The long coastline of the Northland is where Zheng's sailors come into play, not to mention that Zheng Zhilong has a strong army under him.
But how could Emperor Chongzhen, who was suspicious by nature, really rest assured of Zheng Zhilong. These words were all said by Wang Chengen, and it wasn't Zheng Zhilong who thought so, he was still not at ease in his heart.
"I hope he is a loyal minister, I ......" Emperor Chongzhen thought silently in his heart.
……
The panic in the capital is getting bigger and bigger with the dawn, so many big people are moving their families, how can the hearts of the little people still be stable?
But it was hard for them to get out of the city.
Zheng Zhilong will not be kind at this time, and this is fifteen, Emperor Chongzhen will leave tomorrow, and the capital will definitely be open at that time, and the little people's homes are simple, and it is not too late to leave.
He is now receiving money softly, "This capital is the capital, and there will never be a shortage of rich lords and ......" such as Zhu's, Cha's, Sheng's, etc.
All of them are absolute tycoons, and the manor they live in cannot be compared to Zheng Zhilong's old mansion in Anping.
That Zhu family, started in the Yongle period, has been 200 years now. Rich more than the princes, the house to a thousand, the garden pavilion is beautiful, people travel for ten days, unfinished their residence! The Cha family and the Sheng family are also similar to the Fuli (and Zhu family), but the two clans like to make friends with the scholar doctor and think that they are the step of progress, so they have been impeached by the officials, and they are not as good as the Zhu family to retreat to the secret also.
Now if you want to run outside, you have to take out real money.
Zheng Zhilong is soft hand in Dongzhimen, even if he understands that his reputation in the officialdom is rapidly deteriorating, it can't prevent him from laughing happily.
Even in the Forbidden City, aren't all the palaces in the nervous packing up?
Emperor Chongzhen's pomp will only be greater.
The tablets in the Fengxian Hall have been invited down, and Emperor Chongzhen knelt in front of the ancestors and ancestors, crying with a handful of snot and tears. But he still has to get up and go to the Taimiao. There is a temple outside, and there is a temple of Fengxian inside. The function of the two is to worship the ancestors, but each has its own emphasis, the temple worships the ancestors at four o'clock, and the Fengxian Hall is the place where the emperor and the royal family members visit in the morning and dusk.
But just when everyone inside and outside the palace was panicking, there was also a different voice clamoring, such as Naguang Shiheng, who even impeached Zheng Zhilong, and also called on 'friend Qingzheng' to attack him.
Because Zheng Zhilong arrived in the capital, he was not in a hurry to go to Juyong Pass to meet the enemy, but instead slandered Tang Tong, an important minister of the imperial court, which was a tolerable and unbearable move.
However, when it came to the third quarter of Shen Zheng on this day (that is, four or five o'clock), as soon as he rode a fast horse to report to the capital, the news spread all over the east, west, north and south in a short period of time - Tang Tong and Du Zhi in Juyong Pass were lowered.
The two of them sold Da Ming Ke for a good price, and Tang Tong was still the chief military officer of the Dashun Dynasty. With that Bai Guangen, you can become the second general of Humm.
Chongzhen didn't say a word after receiving the letter, moving south, and now there is only one way to move south as soon as possible.
"Tell me to go down, and by tomorrow at the latest (four o'clock in the afternoon), we must clean up inside and outside."
Tang Tong and Du Zhizhi surrendered to the enemy, which made Zheng Zhilong's status in Emperor Chongzhen's heart soar, and all the words he had said before became wise sayings. As soon as Emperor Chongzhen thought that at the earliest seventeen, Li Thief's soldiers would be able to reach the foot of Yanjing City, and this current dragon chair would be like a crater that made him consciously burn his buttocks. Therefore, I will leave Beijing early tomorrow afternoon at the latest.
"Long live, that light is ......"
Compared with his predecessors, Wang Chengen is a very honest person, but how can there be really honest people in the court? No, he was staring at Emperor Chongzhen all the time, and he immediately threw out someone.
"Hikari Shiheng?" Emperor Chongzhen's brows immediately furrowed.
"Long live, Guang Shiheng has been jumping again in the past two days, impeaching Zheng Dashuai in a row, and also beckoning friends to write with him or jointly or together. Said Zheng Dashuai ......"
"Needless to say. This Guang Shiheng had no choice but to sell his name and reputation, and if his people were like this, it was very hateful. ”
Emperor Chongzhen felt that he would never forget his hatred for Guang Shiheng until he died. Although this guy also helped him in the prince's southward migration.
"Spread the message, the light is ......"
In the Forbidden City, Emperor Chongzhen had a thunderous attack, and he took the opportunity to let out a bad breath.
In Taipingdian Town, in the eastern part of Gu'an County, Jingnan, a team of three or four hundred people, dressed in the costumes of ordinary people, carried carts one by one, and looked dusty, thinking at first glance that they would be a group of refugees. But in fact, these people are all young and strong, how can there be no old or weak people in the refugee team?
In Yanjing City, Zheng Zhiguan and Shi Lang, who had disappeared for a day, were in this team full of young and strong.
