After punishing Annan Zheng, Zhu Cijiong felt a little more comfortable in his heart, but he was still a little angry, because the culprit Dutch had not yet been cleaned up.

With the current national strength of the Ming Dynasty, it is not impossible to clean up the Netherlands, like their colony in Batavia, as long as the Ming Dynasty sends two ace fleets, it will definitely be easy to win.

However, the great powers have the habit of beating in groups, and hitting the Netherlands is tantamount to stabbing the hornet's nest, and the anti-Habsburg coalition will definitely swarm the powers, and then the Ming will be in trouble.

What to do? If the light doesn't work, then the dark one, Zhu Cijiong thought of another Zheng family, that is, Zheng Zhilong, the king of Zhennan, this guy used to be a pirate, and he was a pirate under the Dutch, using him to yin the Dutch, it would definitely work wonders.

So, he issued an edict ordering Zheng Zhilong, the king of Zhennan, to come to Shenglong City as soon as possible.

Zheng Zhilong is still presiding over the allocation of materials in Siming Mansion at this time, and it is not a matter of a day or two to rush over, of course Zhu Cijiong can't just wait for this guy to come over without doing anything, he still has a lot of things to deal with.

First of all, it is natural to meet the Li Shenzong of the Lê Dynasty after Annam, and now that Thang Long City has been taken, there is no resistance in the entire Annam except for the Nguyen clan in the south, and it is time to incorporate it into the vassal system of the Ming Dynasty.

So, Zhu Cijiong set up a battle in the Qianyuan Hall of the Imperial City of Annan, and invited Li Weiqi, the god of Li, to come to meet him.

The sudden arrival of the Great Tomorrow Army is simply a joy from the sky for Li Weiqi, he has been pinched by the Zheng family as a puppet emperor for more than 20 years, and he is worried all day long, for fear that one day the Zheng family will suddenly lose his heart and slaughter him, he also thought about asking for help from the Ming Dynasty, but the entire Thang Long City is under the control of the Zheng family, and no one dares to risk death to help him go to the Ming Dynasty for help, so he can only live in the shadow of the Zheng family with trepidation, and honestly be a tool with a big seal.

Just a few days ago, a terrible roar suddenly sounded outside Thang Long City, and after this roar lasted for two or three days, the earth-shattering shouts of killing were remembered again, and then the Ming army rushed into the city and found him.

All this is like a dream, he knows that his hard days are over, because the Ming Dynasty values the orthodox inheritance the most, and will never tolerate the Zheng family's chaotic ministers and thieves, he is the orthodoxy of Annan, and the Ming Dynasty will definitely help him to take the throne and regain power.

Therefore, to His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he was unusually respectful, as soon as he entered the Qianyuan Palace, he stepped forward, kowtowed and bowed: "Weichen Li Weiqi knocked to see the emperor." “

Zhu Cijiong nodded and asked directly: "Li Weiqi, are you willing to surrender to the Ming Dynasty?" “

What are these words, testing him? Li Weiqi hurriedly replied respectfully: "Annan has always been a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, and Wechen has always admired the emperor's grace of the Ming Dynasty, but it is a pity that he was coerced by the rebel Zheng and had no opportunity to express his respect to the Ming Dynasty. “

Zhu Cijiong didn't expect that this product still had the potential of sycophants, he nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Cao Huachun on the side: "Read." “

Cao Huachun hurriedly unfolded the "Ming Vassal State Command System" in his hand and read it aloud.

Li Weiqi knelt there, secretly shocked in his heart, this seems to be very different from before, but, no matter what, it is better than being a puppet, or he will not come to the rescue, he is still living a dark life under house arrest, and he naturally does not dare to raise objections to the "Ming Vassal State Command System".

After Cao Huachun finished reading, Zhu Cijiong said majestically: "Because the Zheng clan of Annan is too disobedient to the Ming Dynasty, and Annan is specially demoted to a second-class vassal state, do you have any objections to Li Weiqi?" “

Second-class is second-class, but there is no military power, the others are not about the same, he already has a deep fear of the army, if there is another rebellious minister and thief like Zheng, wouldn't he become a puppet again, the army is in the hands of Daming, Daming will never come to hold him hostage, thinking of this, he said sincerely: "Everything but the emperor is in charge, and Weichen has no objection." “

When Zhu Cijiong heard this, he finally showed a little smile, and he said loudly: "Come here, put on the seal, and wear robes." “

Immediately, a row of eunuchs rushed in with a plate of fish, and on the plates were placed the king's seal, python robe, crown, ribbon and other things.

Zhu Cijiong personally stepped forward, picked up a crown on a plate, put it on Li Weiqi's head, and said majestically: "I now officially crown you as the king of Annam, hereditary replacement!" “

Li Weiqi was overjoyed, and kowtowed again and again: "Thank you for the emperor's grace, long live my emperor, long live, long live." “

If it is an ordinary vassal state, this is considered the end of the matter, but Annan's situation is special, this Li Shenzong is an emperor under house arrest, and he has never had the opportunity to give orders in person, and I don't know if Annan's civil and military officials will listen to him.

Sending the Buddha to the west and helping people to help them in place, Zhu Cijiong sent another thousand brocade guards to Li Weiqi to help him control the power, and gave up more than half of the Shenglong Imperial City to make him a director of the dynasty.

The customs of Annam are actually modeled after the Ming Dynasty, they also have the imperial examination, they also have six departments, they also have a cabinet, they also use the fold, the fold is written in Chinese characters, even before the Zheng family came to power, they also had an early dynasty, almost a copy of the Ming court.

Annan has not had an early dynasty for decades, on this day, suddenly there are countless Ming brocade guards scattered from the imperial city, one by one to Annan civil and military hundred official mansions, spread the will of the king of Annan Shenzong Li Weiqi: tomorrow at the end of the day in the imperial city Qianyuan Hall to hold a court meeting, all officials in Beijing must not be absent!

If it is true that the Li Shen Sect sent his men to let them go to the early dynasty, it is estimated that few people will bird him, the problem is the brocade guard of the Ming Dynasty, a few days ago, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty dragged countless Zheng clan relatives to the east of the city to cut off their heads, but they were frightened, I heard that this brocade guard is more ruthless than the soldiers of the regular army in the Ming Dynasty, see who is not pleasing to the eye, directly cut down, kill or bury, who dares to offend this kind of person!

So, early the next morning, all the civil and military officials of Annan came to the Qianyuan Palace, and the Jinyi guards were named one by one, and there was really no one who was absent.

Li Shenzong first asked the official to read out the "Ming Domain's Decree System", if there was no example of the Zheng family, it is estimated that a group of people would jump out to oppose it, but now, they are silent one by one, and none of them dare to jump out.

Later, Li Shenzong had the Zheng clan read out the charges of colluding with foreign countries and committing rebellion, and sentenced them to exterminate the nine clans according to the "Da Ming Law".

This seems to be a bit of a fart off your pants, and after everyone has been killed, are you boring to read the accusation here?

In fact, otherwise, the emperor can't kill innocents indiscriminately, and punish the nine clans at every turn, it is definitely a faint monarch and a tyrant, Zhu Cijiong doesn't want to lose the reputation of a faint monarch and a tyrant, so this crime must be recited.

In the end, Lê Shen Zong issued another edict, ordering the Quang Nam Nguyen clan to pack up their troops and horses and come to Thang Long City to surrender.

An early dynasty ended like this, maybe most of the officials have little fear of Li Shenzong now, but the Ming army will not withdraw immediately, such an early dynasty will be held every day, and Li Shenzong will slowly cultivate his cronies, which Annan will sooner or later have to completely surrender.
