As soon as Fan Wencheng said this, Dolgon's heart fell to the ground.

He thought about it, looked around at the ministers in the hall, turned his head to the direction of the bead curtain, and asked softly: "Queen Mother, this king thinks that Bachelor Fan's plan is very good, and it should be tried." But I don't know, what does the Queen Mother mean? ”

The voice in the bead curtain came steadily: "Bachelor Fan's plan is very much in line with the meaning of the mourning family, so please ask the regent to do it according to the plan." ”

Dorgon smiled slightly, and then began to make formal arrangements.

He made Fan Wencheng the plenipotentiary envoy of the Qing court, accompanied by a few retinues, and led an envoy disguised as a caravan by elite warriors from Liaozhong to the sea on a merchant ship all the way to Fuzhou.

Along the way, this merchant ship disguised as an envoy carefully evaded the pirates and sailors of the Tang Army along the way, and finally arrived in Fuzhou at dusk nearly a month later.

Fan Wencheng led a group to the shore and first went to see Zheng Zhilong, the southern marquis of that town.

did not see Hongguang Jianguo Zhu Yousong first, but saw Zheng Zhilong first, which was also Fan Wencheng's painstaking consideration.

Because, the current Hongguang supervisor Zhu Yousong is already a complete puppet under Zheng Zhilong, if this matter bypasses Zheng Zhilong and reports to Zhu Yousong directly, it is likely that his confidential conversation with Zhu Yousong will be detected by Zheng Zhilong, and it will not be good to interrogate him again.

What's more, this matter also needs Zheng Zhilong's cooperation and support, after all, in the future, if the revival emperor's plan to kill Li Xiao is revived, he will also need to send a ship to pick up Zhu Cihong and escape. Therefore, if this matter is to be successful, it must first be explained to him.

Soon, the group came ashore, and under the leadership of the Qing court, they quietly came to Zheng Zhilong's Zhennan Hou Mansion. After a little notification, a servant came out, arranged for those guards to rest temporarily, and immediately took Fan Wencheng himself to the living room to see Zheng Zhilong, Marquis of Zhennan.

After arriving at the living room, Fan Wencheng saw that the entire living room was wide and wide, the candles were bright, and the tall Zheng Zhilong was carrying them on his back, looking at a pair of cowhide maps hanging on the wall with all his attention.

Fan Wencheng saw that this map was almost full of red flags representing the Tang Army, and the blue banners representing Zheng Zhilong's forces only occupied the two provinces of Fujian and Guangdong, which looked very insignificant compared to the Tang Army's forces.

Seeing his subordinate Fan Wencheng coming, Zheng Zhilong turned around slowly, but his face was still full of seriousness. He sat back on the tiger head chair without saying a word, and waved Fan Wencheng to sit down.

After the guests and hosts sat down and watched the tea again, the servants retreated, and in the entire huge living room, only two people sat quietly, showing an awkward silence.

In the end, it was Fan Wencheng who broke the silence with a smile and bowed to Zheng Zhilong: "Zhennan Hou, we are waiting to set off from Shengjing and come down thousands of miles south to your land, it is really important to discuss with Zhennan Hou." ”

"Oh? Is it? Fan Bachelor has come thousands of miles away, and it is very hard, what is the teaching, but it can be clearly said. Zheng Zhilong squeezed out a smile, but his eyes were still full of indifference.

Seeing Zheng Zhilong's cold look, Fan Wencheng's heart sank, but he said with a smile on his face: "Zhennanhou, this time, I want to discuss with Zhennanhou, it is very important, and I hope that Zhennanhou will listen carefully to what he says." ”

"You say, don't beat around the bush, Ben Hou listen." Zheng Zhilong still had a flat expression.

Fan Wencheng coughed lightly, lowered his voice and said, "Zhennanhou, in your opinion, what is the current situation in the world?" ”

Hearing Fan Wencheng's question, Zheng Zhilong looked unhappy, he glanced at Fan Wencheng coldly, and said in a sneering voice: "This is the general trend of the world, do you still need Ben Hou to say more?" Now in my Ming Kingdom, Li Xiao, the king of the Tang Dynasty, has occupied almost all the essence of my Ming Dynasty since he swung his troops south from Shandong. Some time ago, it was in Jintang City, and even broke your Qing Dynasty's 40,000 soldiers and horses and Dashun's 150,000 soldiers and horses. Ben Hou is not afraid to tell the truth in front of the two envoys, but he is afraid that in the future, my Hongguang Imperial Court, and your Great Qing Kingdom, will be the food in the mouth of Li Xiao, a tiger, and the only difference is who he eats first. ”

When Zheng Zhilong said this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, looking frustrated and worried.

Seeing Zheng Zhilong say the difficulties of the current situation and the worries in his heart so briskly, Fan Wencheng knew that his next conversation should be targeted, and he suddenly felt a lot more settled. He then said in a deep voice: "The words of the Marquis of Zhennan are refreshing. I, the whole country in the Qing Dynasty, are also very worried about the current situation, so I sent them to your place to discuss how to deal with Li Xiao. ”

Fan Wencheng paused slightly, and said hurriedly: "I think that now that the momentum of the Tang Army is developing so rapidly, and the Tang Army under his command is so capable of fighting in a battle, it is really too difficult to win against it on the battlefield. Therefore, after thinking about it, only by getting rid of the giant thief Li Xiao can the development momentum of the Tang Army be curbed and plunged into strife and civil strife, so that your country and our country can have a chance to develop and grow. ”

When Zheng Zhilong heard this, he was unconsciously moved, so he subconsciously replied: "Oh, since Bachelor Fan said this, do you think you have a plan to get rid of Li Xiao?" ”

Fan Wencheng nodded, and said: "Zhennanhou, although his intellect is shallow, after thinking about it for many days, he has found a good way to get rid of Li Xiao. In short, this strategy is to sow discord and kill people with a knife. ”

"Really? But please elaborate. Zheng Zhilong leaned over with a focused expression.

"The Marquis of Zhennan, the next strategy is to provoke the Chongxing Emperor Zhu Cihong to disagree with the Tang King Li Xiao, so that they will have a dislike in their hearts, intensify the contradictions, and finally lead the Chongxing Emperor to attack Li Xiao, and use Zhu Cihong's hand to get rid of the giant thief Li Xiao......"

"What? You mean to incite the Emperor of Chongxing to attack Li Xiao, this, how is this possible?! Zheng Zhilong had an incredulous look on his face.

Fan Wencheng smiled faintly and said in a low voice: "Zhennanhou doesn't need to be so surprised. You also know that those who are monarchs are most afraid of being set up by subordinate officials, and they are even more afraid that there will be a powerful minister like Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao and Sima Zhao below. And the Emperor Chongxing, since he ascended the throne, has gone through two years, and gradually understands the principle of exercising authority, and he must be dissatisfied with Li Xiao's self-elevation and prestige. And those officials who are loyal to the Ming family in their hearts must have slandered Li Xiao, the Tang King who looks like Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao, for a long time, and have a deep grudge. These people and forces are the biggest hole cards to knock down and remove Li Xiao. ”

Fan Wencheng paused and replied: "The reason why Li Xiao and Zhu Cihong have been able to maintain a calm state until now is because the Chongxing Emperor Zhu Cihong is tightly controlled by Li Xiao, and it is very difficult for subordinate officials to even want to see the emperor, let alone vent their complaints to the emperor. It's just that such a state will be broken sooner or later, and with the further growth of Li Xiao's power, sooner or later there will be a day when they will have a counter-purpose between their monarchs and ministers. So I think about it, wouldn't it be a good thing if we could add fuel to the tension between them, intensify their contradictions in advance, and let their kings and ministers kill each other? If you can use the hand of this revival emperor, except for Li Xiao, who can be the biggest disaster, then the Tang army will definitely be torn apart, then the Marquis of Zhennan has removed the biggest opponent in the country, and I will no longer have to worry about the Qing Dynasty. Such a good deed should not be used well, and how could it be easily let go. ”

When Fan Wencheng said this, his eyes flashed with a glittering light, and his voice was obviously much higher: "Marquis Zhennan, if the envoys sent can really say that the emperor is revitalized and made him decide to attack Li Xiao, this matter will be more than half successful." Then, Zhu Cihong can be summoned to summon Li Xiao back to Jinan to discuss matters, and then set up his eunuchs and those officials who are secretly loyal to him, take the lead in hiding the sword and axe hand in the court, and take the opportunity of Li Xiao's pilgrimage to cut it into meat sauce! As long as Li Xiao dies and the Tang Army is divided, the world will be decided, and the Marquis of Zhennan and I will be free from worry! ”

Fan Wencheng talked eloquently, and roughly told Zheng Zhilong what he had said to Dolgon before.

After finishing his words, Zheng Zhilong's expression was obviously excited, his eyes lit up, and even his breathing began to become rough.

Fan Wencheng's plan, if it can really be implemented, let the Emperor Chongxing find the first to cut Li Xiao into meat sauce, and the giant thief Li Xiao is eliminated, wouldn't he be able to sit back and watch the Tang army collapse?

And the Tang army was in chaos and attacked and killed each other, so he should be able to wave his troops to the north, take the vast territory occupied by the Tang army in one fell swoop, and even accept a large number of troops and generals from the Tang army.

Thinking of this, Zheng Zhilong subconsciously clenched his fists.

Grandma's, in the future, anyway, he is not the opponent of the Tang Army on the frontal battlefield, and it is difficult to even protect himself, so it is really better to fight him. After all, as soon as Li Xiao is removed, in this Ming Realm, he is no longer invincible, even if he is an invisible emperor of the Ming Dynasty, it is not impossible!

It's just that although Zheng Zhilong was very excited, he still thought of it quickly, so he frowned and asked Fan Wencheng: "Master Fan, this plan is very unexpected, but, have you ever thought that you are not afraid of 10,000, just in case, in case this matter does not work out, Li Xiao learns about it, but how to end the visit?" ”

Hearing Zheng Zhilong's question, Fan Wencheng smiled again, and said, "Zhennanhou, it is human nature for you to be so worried. After all, in this world, we will do our best and obey the destiny of heaven, and there will inevitably be a time when there will be a leak. I also thought about it in the next place, if this matter does not come to fruition, then Li Xiao will definitely be very angry, and he will be imprisoned and strictly guarded by Emperor Zhu Cihong, or even kill the monarch, and get rid of the Emperor Chongxing with black hands, and re-establish the puppet to think that it has been used. In this case, I will be unable to achieve all this busyness. Therefore, I think that even if this matter does not work, we must think of a way out in advance, if we can let the Emperor Chongxing, after getting the secret report of the news leak, he can escape from Shandong smoothly and go to the Fujian boundary where the Marquis of Zhennan is located, which should be the best way to deal with it. ”

Seeing Zheng Zhilong's eyes glaring, looking at himself without blinking, and listening very attentively, Fan Wencheng said again: "In my opinion, we and other personnel need to see the changes in the situation in time and understand whether there is a possibility of leakage." At the same time, it is necessary to remind the reviving emperor from time to time, so that he can prepare for the failure of good things. As soon as Li Xiao was found aware of this, he had to escape from Jinan immediately before he made a move, and went to the port that had been prepared for a long time. And in this harbor, there was already a fleet arranged by the Marquis of Zhennan, pretending to be a merchant ship temporarily stationed here, and then secretly receiving the Emperor Zhu Cihong to board the ship and escape, all the way south to Fujian. ”

Fan Wencheng swallowed and continued; "As long as Zhu Cihong successfully escapes to Fujian, then all his next actions will be under the control of Zhennanhou. It can also be said that it was in the hands of the Marquis of Zhennan who controlled the most legitimate emperor of the Ming Dynasty. In this way, with the trump card in hand, the Marquis of Zhennan and your subordinates are the most trusted and loyal divisions of the imperial court, and they can be called the most closely related troops of the emperor and the imperial court. And the dog thief Li Xiao, any of his actions will be unjustifiable, and his subordinates will also have a lot of grievances, and the army will be in turmoil. Then, the Marquis of Zhennan ordered the Emperor Zhu Cihong to issue a holy decree to crusade against Li Xiao, and the Tang army would also fall into internal chaos. In this way, the Marquis of Zhennan led his troops to the north to defeat the remnants of the Tang army of the giant thief Li Xiaozhi, and our Qing Dynasty and Dashun Daxi could also lead troops to attack the remnants of the Tang army. If the Tang army loses its leader, there will inevitably be civil strife, and the soldiers will have no heart to fight, and this battle should be won in one battle. ”

Fan Wencheng's words can be said to have completely spoken to Zheng Zhilong's heart.

He stood up and paced quickly back and forth in the room, looking a mixture of anticipation and nervousness. In the end, he stood still and looked at Fan Wencheng with his eyes like a knife: "Master Fan, then do you want to go to Hongguang Jianguo and ask him to send someone to talk to Emperor Zhu Cihong of Chongxing?" ”

Fan Wencheng hurriedly got up and bowed his hand to Zheng Zhilong: "Zhennan Hou Guo is a smart lord, and Fan's thoughts are all expected by Zhennan Hou. In the next step, it is indeed necessary to talk to Hongguang Jianguo, and Hongguang Jianguo will personally write a secret letter and send close ministers to Shandong to lobby. The content of the next discussion with Hongguang Jianguo is nothing more than that Zhu Yousong, the Hongguang Jianguo, personally told the Chongxing Emperor Zhu Cihong in this secret letter, saying that since he had been promoted by the ministers to supervise the country, the president of the southern provinces, it was really a lot of hardships, and it was a last resort, and now he was willing to respect the Chongxing Emperor and go to the title of the prison country, in order to serve the emperor. It's just that now the southern provinces are all under the coercion of Li Xiao, and they are suffering a lot, and it is difficult to be loyal to the emperor. Therefore, I asked the emperor to judge the situation and get rid of Li Xiao, the giant beetle of the country who is comparable to Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao, and set up the dynasty with the correct national law. As long as Li Xiao is eliminated, the whole world will definitely gather to respond, and he will immediately lead all his ministers to join forces to jointly honor the emperor of Chongxing, so that the Ming Dynasty will be restored to unity. ”

Hearing Fan Wencheng say this, Zheng Zhilong laughed, and he said loudly: "Very good! Bachelor Fan's plan is very good! In this way, in order to dispel Hongguang Jianguo's doubts and make a decision as soon as possible, Ben Hou will go with you to meet Hongguang Jianguo in person! ”
