After all, the two kings of Tang and Lu are the princes of the Ming Dynasty, if Wang Yan does not have enough reasons to make a move against the two kings, then in the eyes of the world, he is ready to rebel, and the world will suspect that he has the heart of rebellion, he will become a politician from a politician, and the image he has created over the years will collapse immediately, and the political ideals he adheres to will also become a laughing stock.

At this time, if the two kings raise their arms and shout, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Fujian will inevitably follow the two kings to launch a war to overthrow the king under the banner of Baoming and rebellion, and the conservative gentry who are dissatisfied with Wang Yan's policy will definitely take the opportunity to fight back, and the central court will also be unstable.

A large reason for the stability of the Nanjing court is that it is the legitimate power of the Ming Dynasty and the regime of the son of Emperor Gaozong as the Son of Heaven. Wang Yan didn't have enough reason to do it to the prince of the Zhu family, so he changed himself from legal to illegal.

Wang Yan had long wanted to send Tang Lu overseas, but he never had enough reason to do it.

He can only wait for Tang Lu to show his flaws, or let Tang Lu move him, then it will become Tang Lu's rebellion against the Central Committee, and he can represent the Central Committee and justifiably quell the rebellion.

Just like Wang Yan moved the two kings of Tang and Lu without enough reason and couldn't stand morality, Wang Yan was not at fault and did not rebel, and if the two kings of Tang and Lu wanted to move him, it would be even more unreasonable.

Wang Yan is Emperor Gaozong's minister, representing the central government of the Ming Dynasty, and if the two kings of Tang and Lu want to move him, it is to rebel, so he can raise the banner of the central government to deal with the two kings.

Wang Yan rebelled, and many people in the Ming Dynasty would oppose him, and the two kings of Tang and Lu rebelled, and most of the officials in the three provinces needed to consider whether to follow him.

From Nanjing to Huguang, Wang Yan hoped to turn passivity into initiative and always stand on the commanding heights of morality.

At the end of May, news came from the north that after King Liwang Daishan, who had co-regent with Dolgon, returned to Beijing from Moxi, more than 60 people finally died of illness in the palace in Beijing in April due to fatigue.

The political situation of the Manchus, with the departure of Dai Shan, changed again, and Dolgon regained sole power in the Manchus.

This **** heart of death is immortal, once it digests Western Mongolia, I am afraid that it will give birth to the heart of going south.

Whether it was the Manchu Qing Dynasty's southward march or Wang Yan's Northern Expedition, a major collision was inevitable.

If Wang Yan wins this battle, then his prestige will be as high as the sky, he will not die, and no one can replace him as the master of the Ming Dynasty.

For Wang Yan's political enemies, before the result of this collision is born, it will be their last chance, otherwise they can really only wait for Wang Yan to die violently before they can have a chance to come out.

Wang Yan didn't want him to suddenly have someone behind him when he was fighting with the Manchus, so before the duel, he had to carry out an integration of the Ming court and bring Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Fujian all into the central ruling area.

Only by controlling these places can the Ming Dynasty be a complete Ming Dynasty, and it will definitely be stronger than the Manchu Qing Dynasty in terms of strength, otherwise he will fight in front of him, and he will put tens of thousands of troops to guard against Jin Shenghuan, Zheng Chenggong and others, and his hands and feet will be restrained.

The two kings of Tang and Lu were very shrewd, and it was difficult for Wang Yan to grasp their handles.

This time he inspected Huguang, in addition to inspecting the Ma army, in fact, he also had the intention of luring the snake out of the hole.

At first, Wang Yan thought that after he left Nanjing, Tang Lu's actions would inevitably be relaxed, and Jinyiwei would be able to secretly investigate and obtain Tang Lu's handle, so that he could convict the two kings and exile them to Nanyang through judicial means, but now it seems that I am afraid that judicial means will not be able to solve the internal problems of the Ming Dynasty.

There is no conclusive evidence for the attack on the mission, and the private soldiers on Taiwan Island, they can be said to be Zhuang Ding. The situation overseas was complicated, and the Ming Dynasty allowed large landlords to recruit Zhuang Ding in Zhancheng and Taiwan Island to protect the land and fight against the locals.

As for the third prince, Jin Yiwei does not have much information, at most he can re-investigate the Hujiazhuang case and move Xiao Qihui, but this can only startle the snake, and cannot knock King Lu down.

Wang Yan heard Yu Taichu say that the third prince may be in the hands of King Lu, but where he was hidden, Jinyiwei didn't know, he knew that it was not easy to wait for the two of them to show their flaws.

King Lu is a powerful figure, if the third prince is really in his hands, Wang Yan can know his intentions if he speculates a little, and the two kings will take advantage of the loopholes of the imperial court to train private soldiers on Taiwan Island, and sooner or later they will do something to him.

Wang Yan was silent for a while, leaned sideways and hooked his hand to Yu Taichu, letting him get closer, and then said in a low voice: "The matter of the third prince, you continue to investigate, you must find out where the third prince is, and then snatch people out." ”

"Humble knows!" Yu Taichu nodded hurriedly.

Wang Yan continued: "In addition, hand over the things found by Jinyiwei to the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, and let them re-investigate the Hujiazhuang case and move the officialdom in Zhejiang!" ”

"Your Highness, isn't this a startling snake?" Yu Taichu frowned, once the court re-investigates the Hujiazhuang case, it is equivalent to telling Zhejiang that the court is looking for the third prince, and King Lu will inevitably hide the third prince deeper, and the Jinyi guard will have no way to start.

Wang Yan shook his head and sneered, "I just want to startle the snake, King Lu can't watch Xiao Qi be taken away, I'm forcing him to make a move." ”

Wang Yan saw that Yu Taichu was a little confused, so he continued: "The imperial court has rejected the proposal of the Tang King to assign Luzon to Fujian, and Tang Lu also knows that the imperial court is very dissatisfied with their unauthorized use of troops, they will think that this is a signal that the imperial court wants to cut the feudal domain, and they will inevitably be vigilant in their hearts, and at this time, the imperial court will re-investigate the Hujiazhuang case and point the finger at the Zhejiang officialdom in charge of this case, and King Lu will think that the imperial court will take advantage of this case to get rid of his power in Zhejiang." Zhejiang is the foundation of King Lu, and he will never allow the imperial court to meddle in Zhejiang..."

Yu Taichu's eyes lit up, and he seemed to understand a little, "Let people do it immediately." ”

Wang Yan said: "In addition to this matter, Jinyiwei must closely monitor King Tang and King Lu, as well as every move in Jiangxi, Fujian and Zhejiang, and report to me at any time!" ”

Yu Taichu got up and hugged his fists, and Wang Yan immediately waved him away, but he still sat and did not move for a long time.

The turmoil that will be involved this time may be more serious than when he broke with Longwu and seized Chu Yue. He had to think about it comprehensively, and in addition to domestic affairs, he also needed to pay attention to two strong enemies in the north.

When Jin and Qing were fighting with Zungar, the Ming Dynasty was ruthless in the back, restricting them, and if there was a big turmoil in the Ming Dynasty, these two fierce neighbors would never give up the opportunity to fall into the ground.

Thinking of this, Wang Yan immediately stood up, and with a wave of his hand, Lu Shikui immediately asked the guards to move the horses, Wang Yan turned over and got on the horse, and immediately ran back.

He did not return to Hankou New Town, but went to the wharf, took a boat to Wuchang, and entered the governor's yamen.

Not long after, the Yamen rode around quickly, went to Shangyong, Xiangyang and Nanyang, summoned the main generals to Wuchang to discuss matters, and also galloped to Sichuan, Jiangbei and Guangdong.
