Fan Shaozu, who was defeated, the Mongols who lost their armor, the Qing soldiers of the Han army who fled in all directions, and the Manchu Tartars who were captured and tortured, all of this announced to everyone that the Ming Dynasty was not over, and the Ming court still had the strength to defeat the enemy and inflict heavy losses on the enemy, but who knows, both sides need to recuperate, accumulate strength, and fight again when the strength is strong.

Half a month later, for the first time, the Longwu court was anxious for the ministers to go to the court to discuss matters.

Of course, this court did not recruit Zhang Qiang to come to the court.

Zhang Qiang also didn't want to stand in the court and bow to Emperor Longwu, although he did not coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but Zhang Qiang and Emperor Longwu reached some tacit understanding, and neither side would take anyone too seriously, and they knew it.

Emperor Longwu glanced at the court, and the civil officials were: Jin Sheng, the secretary of the ministry, Zhu Dadian, the secretary of the military department, He Kai, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Su Guansheng, the secretary of the household department, and Qian Bingji, the secretary of the criminal department.

The military attaches are: Ruan Jie, the chief soldier of Yanping Prefecture, Zhang Tianlu, the chief soldier of Fuzhou Prefecture, Zheng Hongkui, the chief soldier of Zhangzhou, Zheng Cai, the chief soldier of Xiamen, and Huang Bingfu, the chief soldier of Zhoushan.

These are the main figures of civil officials and military generals, and there are some officials and generals who have come to take refuge, as well as some civil officials and military generals who have been appeased by these scholars.

"Something to start, nothing to retreat." Some of the eunuchs who had previously served Emperor Longwu were recruited back and re-entered Emperor Longwu's palace to serve him.

The chief eunuch was a middle-aged eunuch with a white face who looked like a scholar, named Wu Wei, with the pinnacle of words, holding a whisk of dust, and shouting in a sharp sissy voice.

Qian Binglu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, came out of the list, "The minister has something to do." ”

Longwu Zhu Yujian nodded slightly, "Aiqing can speak slowly." ”

Qian Bingrup said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the minister impeached Zhang Qiang, the governor of Zhejiang, for being arrogant, having no court, wasting food and salary, but not worrying about the country, and garrisoning troops everywhere and cowering. ”

Zhu Yujian's eyes sank slightly, he really didn't want to talk about it, and he didn't want to think about it.

Who is Zhang Qiang, since he was rescued by Zhang Qiang, he can see Zhang Qiang's ambition from Zhang Qiang's attitude and eyes towards him.

Originally, he was worried that Zhang Qiang would learn from Cao Cao and Zheng, but in the end, Zhang Qiang just retreated back to Zhejiang, and left elite soldiers to help him guard various passes, and handed over the captured 20,000 or 30,000 Qing soldiers to him to form an army.

After a secret spy between the two sides, he had to agree to Zhang Qiang's request to take the territory currently occupied by Zhang Qiang in Zhejiang as his fief, and he could not interfere with Zhang Qiang's Jinhua Righteous Army, and the Jinhua Righteous Army only helped him defend his power in times of crisis.

What kind of person is he Longwu, in order to recover the Ming Dynasty, he can propose to appease Li Zicheng's remnants of the Great Shun, and propose to jointly resist the Manchus, and everyone stands in a trench to fight the Manchu Tartars, rather than infighting.

In the face of the Ming Dynasty's jealousy and hatred, the half-hearted Ming gentry who were not accustomed to cutting their braids, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty proposed to keep their heads without hair and vigorously persecuted the Ming gentry, they said: Whether it is shaved or not, willing to shave or unwilling, as long as everyone hits the Manchus, they are the people of the Ming Dynasty, and the court is powerless to protect them, and they will not be held responsible.

This is also where he is wiser than the timid Yongli, the incompetent and lustful Hongguang, and his younger brother Zhu Yuao, who likes infighting, and Zhu Yihailuwang, who has always had no opinions.

He is one of the emperors of the Southern Ming Dynasty who is more sensible and capable.

With Zheng Zhilong's experience, he doesn't want to be an empty ambition and ideal emperor again, although Zhang Qiang's current approach makes him disgusted and dissatisfied, but he still feels that this is also an opportunity for him, a time given by Zhang Qiang, his opportunity to revitalize the Ming Dynasty, he wants to seize this opportunity.

Zhang Qiang is a person who can't be guessed, Longwu has experienced all kinds of hardships, and he also knows that now is not the time to pursue Zhang Qiang's disrespectful behavior, he can only take advantage of the current situation to strive to expand his strength, and then solve Zhang Qiang's problem in the future.

He thought that when he had more territory, more soldiers and more strength, Zhang Qiang might be a vassal to him.

In order to curry favor with Zhang Qiang, he even left Xiao Fei, who beheaded Zhang Cunren, the governor of the Qing army, in the final face of the Qing soldiers in the Jinhua Righteous Army, in Quanzhou Mansion.

In general, he is not stunned, and he doesn't want to repeat the mistake of the Zheng family controlling him, he wants to strengthen himself, Zhang Qiang supports Zhejiang, and also sends troops to protect him, this can be regarded as an ally, compared to Li Chuang Dashun who single-handedly destroyed the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Qiang's righteous army that helped him is really his ally.

Faced with Zhu Yujian's stunned appearance after not speaking for a long time, Qian Bingjian didn't know how to resolve this embarrassment, Zhu Yujian didn't express his opinion, he had to stand there, stiffly waiting for Zhu Yujian's opinion.

This is the king.

Seeing that Qian Bingjian's impeachment did not work, Zhu Yujian didn't say anything, Su Guansheng stood up, "Your Majesty, the whole world, it is not the king's ministers, the shore of the land, it is not the king's land, this Zhang Qiang is so arrogant and domineering, he does not listen to orders, how can the face of the court exist, how to order the world in the future, the minister feels that he should be sent to arrest him back to Beijing, seize his military power, and go to prison to be served." ”

Jin Sheng, as the former political envoy of Zhang Qiang's Jinhua Righteous Army, has some understanding of Zhang Qiang's actions and character, and also knows that this is not the time to turn his face with Zhang Qiang.

Jin Sheng stood up, "Your Majesty, no, Governor Zhang Qiang has tens of thousands of soldiers, he is the pillar of the country, the pillar of the country, although there is disrespect, but he is still loyal to the country and the Lord, just stay in office to check." We can't act rashly, our current enemies are the Qing Dynasty Tartars, not loyal generals who serve the country. ”

Although Zhu Dadian has a history of being bewitched and controlled by Zhang Qiang, after he failed twice, he also felt that the Jinhua Righteous Army without Zhang Qiang, the Longwu Imperial Court relied on Zhang Qiang's exchange of Qing army surrenders, and the newly recruited rebel army without combat effectiveness, it was impossible to maintain, and the most experienced scholar of Nanming University, he felt that he should stand up to maintain the current pattern.

Zhu Dadian also stood up, "Your Majesty, think twice before acting, don't waste food because of choking, now the soldiers of our dynasty seem to be strong and strong, but in fact, they are all rabble, not as elite as Governor Zhang's soldiers, they can't fight against the Qing soldiers, and they still need Governor Zhang's soldiers to fight against the Qing soldiers. ”

Zhu Yujian's eyes swept to a cadre of military generals, and the generals all looked at their noses and noses, as if they had nothing to do with themselves.

They are all defeated generals under Zhang Qiang, and they are serving in the new court as demoted generals, of course, they will not provoke Zhang Qiang, who is now powerful and has an official position above them.

Zhu Yujian kept his eyes on Zheng Hongkui, "Zheng Aiqing, what do you think?" ”
