In the morning, Wang Yan inspected the ordnance superintendent, and in the afternoon, he went to the Purple Mountain to inspect the martyrs' words and the construction of the martial arts institute.

With the northward shift of the political, economic, and cultural centers of the Ming Dynasty, coupled with the Chu Party's control of the central government, the control of Nanzhi, Jiangnan, and the Jingcheng Huguang, the Chu Party focused on operation and infiltration.

The ordnance workshops and ordnance supervisors in Guangdong had to send a number of people to Nanjing to restore the ordnance manufacturing in Nanjing so that they could go on the Northern Expedition, so that they would not have to be transferred from Guangdong every time.

Hong Chengchou left Wang Yan a good foundation in Nanjing, there is an ordnance manufacturing land covering an area of nearly 800 acres in Nanjing, there are also some craftsmen, and even a gunsmith sent by the Dutch, Wang Yan only needs to rectify a little, and when Song Yingxing comes over in Guangdong, he can resume production, and the ordnance manufacturing of the Ming army will go to a new level.

Loyal martyrs and martial arts, this is every province to build, Nanjing as the national capital, naturally indispensable, and Wang Yan built the two together, it is also meaningful, and after the construction, he will also move the country to the prison, so that the civil and military forces will slowly run in.

After seeing the two places, Wang Yan went back to the palace directly, and before he entered the door, someone reported that King Qin had been waiting in the living room for an afternoon.

Wang Yan was slightly stunned, it is estimated that there must be something wrong with the clan, but this is also in his expectation, some things should be very good to make the right decision from the intellectual level, but the reality is always very absurd, if everything can be explained, then China will not have so many changes of dynasty.

In the living room, King Qin was sitting, the teacups and pastries next to him didn't move at all, and the whole person was a little distracted, as if he was thinking about something.

At this time, Wang Yan walked into the living room and walked in front of him, and he reacted and hurriedly saluted Wang Yan.

Wang Yan walked to the seat of the middle hall, waved his hand to tell him not to be polite, and then drank a glass of water handed by the guard, and said after a while: "Is the sect very emotional over there?" ”

King Qin was stunned for a moment, "Your Highness is aware that after the lower officials read the imperial decrees in the Zongren Mansion, the clan has attacked the lower officials a lot, and they are also very dissatisfied with the imperial decrees. ”

Zhu Cunshu saw it more clearly, King Tang clearly didn't want to participate, the clan had no chance of winning, and it was definitely self-inflicted hardship to toss it, he had already spoken for the clan, but no one understood, so he came to Wang Yan, so as not to be affected in the future.

After speaking, he glanced at Wang Yan, but his eyes met and he immediately avoided it.

Wang Yan understood what he meant, "After the successful relocation to Taiwan this time, the imperial court will remember you." ”

King Qin was a little happy when he heard this, but at the same time he was a little confused, he calmed down slightly, and then said: "Your Highness, after the clans left the Zongren Mansion, they did not disperse, but went to Juxian Mansion together. ”

Wang Yan listened, and then waved his hand to the guards, "Go, let Yu Taichu come to see Gu!" ”

The guards were ordered to retreat, and after a while, Yu Taichu followed the guards and hurriedly walked into the living room to salute Wang Yan.

"King Qin said that the clan is gathering in Juxian Building, what news did you receive over there!" Wang Yan asked.

Yu Taichu arched his hand, "I was about to inform His Highness that Jinyiwei just got the news!" After speaking, he took out a note and presented it to Wang Yan.

The guard took it and handed it to Wang Yan, he opened it and looked at it, and immediately said angrily: "This King Yu is really afraid that the world will not be chaotic." ”

King Qin was a little shocked when he saw this, he didn't mention King Yu, but now Jinyiwei found out, listening to Wang Yan's words, obviously what they said, Jinyiwei knew it, which made him feel a chill in his back, and he was even more sure that the clan would definitely suffer if he was carrying it.

At this moment, there was a faint sound of hurried footsteps outside, and a general hurried outside the hall.

The person who came was Yang Yanchang, the commander of the Tiger Wing Battalion in Zhongzhen Town, who was born in the peasant army and was a general with high merits, and in the north of cholera, Li Zicheng forced Chongzhen to death, offended the royal family and the gentry, and it was difficult to be co-opted by Tang, Lu or other forces, so Wang Yan left loyal to defend Nanjing.

Yang Yanchang also held the title of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, Wang Yan saw that it was him, asked the guards to let him in, and said with a calm face: "Is it the clan that has gathered to the palace?" ”

Yang Yanchang entered the hall and was about to make a report, but after listening to Wang Yan's words, he was immediately stunned, and bowed in surprise, "Returning to Your Highness, this is indeed the case." King Xiang, King Yi, King Liao and other clans, there were thousands of people marching through the streets and were heading in the direction of the palace. ”

King Qin was a little surprised when he heard this, he didn't expect those clans to be so bold that they would dare to blatantly confront the imperial court.

Wang Yan's face sank, "Your people, have you ever had a conflict with the clan?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, they are all relatives of the emperor, who dares to do it?" If he had been a rogue before, he would have cut down this group of bastards with a knife, but now they are the officials and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, people in the system, without Wang Yan's order, who would dare to do something to a bunch of princes and county kings.

Wang Yan nodded, "You did the right thing, you can't hurt them." ”

Yang Yanchang was just about to come to Wang Yan to ask for orders, and after listening to Wang Yan's words, he couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, if you don't hurt them, do you let them break into the palace?" ”

Wang Yan stood up, the clan assembly and procession really made Wang Yan more hot, after all, they are royalty, and they have not committed any crimes, and the officials are still gathering at the palace gate, Wang Yan can't do anything about these thousands of clans, but let them continue to make trouble like this, it will definitely not work.

"You immediately lead the troops to guard the palace gate, and you can't let the clan in, and you can't let the queen mother see the clan." Wang Yan walked up to Yang Yanchang and ordered: "Let someone go and inform Gao Yigong again, mobilize people from the military camp, and surround the clan." Alone and free means to control them. ”

In the city of Nanjing, many people stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance, only to see a group of clan nobles wearing dragon robes on the street, holding a portrait of Emperor Taizu, constantly chanting this slogan, and walking past them.

This group of people was furious, and there were thousands of people, and the words "the law of the ancestors" and "treating the clan well" often popped out of their mouths, demanding that the empress dowager and the emperor give justice to the clan.

attracted the small people on the roadside, talking a lot, pointing and pointing, they looked at many of the fat people, a little puzzled, do they still need any justice?

"What's going on? What about these clans? ”

"I don't know, His Royal Highness the King of Chu issued an order to move the vassal into Taiwan, and all these royal relatives and relatives will be sent to Taiwan." A soldier clasped his hands to his chest and stood aside to watch the excitement.

"Isn't that exile? Could it be that His Royal Highness the King of Chu wants to ······"

"Brother Li, don't talk nonsense, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, how could he do that!"

"Then why did you exile the clan to Taiwan?"

"Brother Li doesn't know this! Introducing the three books "The Pros and Cons of the World and the Country", "The Daily Knowledge", and "The Daming Tianmu System", Brother Li will understand it after reading it. The scholar stretched out three fingers, a little complacent, full of superiority.

The scholar next to him disagreed, "Whoever has the time to read those books, it's going to be autumn soon, I have to prepare for the exam, since Brother Zhao has read it, tell me about it." ”

"If you want to prepare for the exam, then you should watch it." The scholar surnamed Zhao looked left and right, then leaned over and whispered: "Not to mention the ideas mentioned in these books, which are enlightening, just say that now that His Royal Highness the King of Chu is in power, Brother Li should also read these books!" ”

Shizi surnamed Li's eyes lit up when he heard this, "What does Brother Zhao mean is that the exam questions of Qiu Yu will be examined?" ”

The scholar surnamed Zhao lowered his voice, "It is estimated that eight or nine is not far from ten." Brother Li don't tell others about this, lest we can't compete. ”

The conversation between the two scholars was a little erratic, and while they were talking, the line of the clan had already turned around the corner of the street and headed directly to the imperial city.

These clans are rich and noble people, and there are no riots and smashing and looting along the way, and they are under the leadership of the prince and the prince of the county, in a very peaceful way, to put pressure on the imperial court, so that the king of Chu cannot come to power.

The procession, before coming to the imperial city, Yang Yanchang led more than 1,000 elite soldiers, blocked the city gate, put up the horses, and set up obstacles.

King Yi and King Xiang naturally did not dare to clash with the army, so they gave Wang Yan a reason to do them, and the two immediately turned around, beckoned the clansmen, and sat in front of the palace gate and began to sit-in and demonstrate.

And at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance, and tens of thousands of troops came from three sides, surrounding all these clans.

This made King Liao a little flustered, "Wang Yan won't attack us, right?" ”

King Yi was also a little weak-hearted, he pursed his lips, but he still had the courage to say firmly, "He doesn't dare, unless he wants to rebel." Besides, this idea is a hint from King Yu, presumably King Tang is also happy to see us like this, otherwise why don't they change their land? Everyone has their hearts in their stomachs! Today with Wang Yan to the end, I don't believe that our Zhu family can still be bullied by outsiders. ”
