Although an agreement was reached on the surface to divide maritime interests, it was also soft for the Zheng family, and many people inside were very angry, even Zheng Zhilong himself was also very uncomfortable.

One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and although the sea is large, there are too many two forces. Even if it is for the long-term prosperity of the Zheng family, it is necessary to beat the momentum of the Qi State Mansion.

Knowing that the battle is too big to be sure of victory, it will also lose both, but it is very simple to secretly stumble. Zheng Zhilong knew that Chen Yue had made many enemies in the court, and if he could bring down Chen Yue at the court level, without Chen Yue, the forces of Zhoushan and Dongfan would naturally disappear.

Therefore, although an agreement was reached, Zheng Zhilong did not mind secretly writing a few letters and sending them to Nanjing, as long as the actions of Chen Yue, the Duke of Qi, spread, there would naturally be court officials to impeach, and there was no need for the Zheng family to do anything at all.

Chen Yue is busy with resettlement, and he is busy with all the Ming people on Dongfan Island, although he has the assistance of Gu Junen, Shan Minglei, Li Yanzhi and others, he is also very busy every day.

Zheng Zhilong is racking his brains about how to deal with the threat of the rising Dongfan forces to the Zheng family.

The Nanjing court fell into another round of disputes, and with Lu Zhenfei's dismissal and imprisonment, the situation in the court gradually divided into two forces, and the officials formed two factions around Shi Kefa and Qian Qianyi.

Shi Kefa was born in the Donglin Party, and Qian Qianyi is also the boss of the Donglin Party, but the Donglin Party is only a loose organization, and there are conflicts of interest within it.

Qian Qianyi's position in the Donglin Party is above Shi Kefa, but Shi Kefa is the first assistant of the cabinet, surrounded by a group of Qingliu officials.

Lu Zhenfei's Northern Expedition failed and humiliated the country, and the officials of the first assistant Shi Kefa department strongly demanded that Lu Zhenfei be dealt with according to the law, and then implicated the Lu Party to make room for his own people.

Lu Zhenfei and Chen Yue, the Duke of Qi, were very close, although Chen Yue was still in the Wa Kingdom at that time, Wang Yin, the governor of Zhejiang, asked Qian Qianyi for help in the name of Chen Yue, and he must leave Lu Zhenfei alive.

And Qian Qianyi has always had a good relationship with Chen Yue, the Duke of Qi, and wanted to take the opportunity to recruit the officials of Lu Zhenfei's family to strengthen the Qian Party, so he wrote to speak for Lu Zhenfei at the request of Wang Yin.

The two parties were arguing in the court, and Chongzhen couldn't make up his mind. According to Chongzhen's previous character, he was never polite to this kind of governor who lost his teacher and humiliated the country, and when he was in Beijing, he killed many such governors.

But after coming to Nanjing, after experiencing a series of hardships, Chongzhen has matured a lot, and his eager personality has changed a little, at least he can listen to people's words and no longer let the ministers fool, and he will no longer kill the ministers and remove officials in anger.

So far, Lu Zhenfei has not been killed, but is only locked up in prison.

Chongzhen is a bitter emperor, because of the early death of his brother Emperor Tianqi, he hurriedly ascended to the throne, but he never made any preparations to be an emperor before ascending the throne.

Maybe it is natural disasters and man-made disasters that make the Ming Dynasty have reached the end of the road, maybe it is Chongzhen's own ability and character that accelerated the fall of the Ming Dynasty, in short, since Chongzhen ascended the throne, natural disasters and man-made disasters have continued one after another, and internal and external enemies have risen one after another. So much so that Beijing was actually fallen by thieves, and Wu Sangui's surrender made the Manchu Tartars cross the border wall and occupy the north of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty almost perished.

Fortunately, there was a Chen Yue, who escaped from Beijing with Chongzhen, gained a firm foothold in Nanjing, and defeated the Manchu and Qing armies, helping the Ming Dynasty to crumble.

However, Chen Yue had just mourned for his father, and Lu Zhenfei's Northern Expedition failed. And the so-called disaster is not a single line, the blow always comes one after another, when the Nanjing court tried its best to stabilize the situation of the Ming Dynasty, something happened in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

Kuizhou, the county town located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, the Yangtze River surging through the territory, standing at the mouth of the Qutang Gorge, the situation is dangerous, it has always been an important military town in eastern Sichuan, and the soldiers must fight for it.

And now this area is controlled by the remnants of the Shun army, relying on the mountains and mountains to the south, the Yangtze River exploration waterway is sad, more than 100,000 Shun troops firmly control the area from Wanxian to Kuizhou, and the Ming army in the east of the Great Western Army in the west to contend with.

When Li Zicheng lost Tongguan and fled south through Wuguan in a hurry, Li Guogao's first meritorious department, which was far away in Yulin, northern Shaanxi, did not have time to escape with him, but Guanzhong, where Xi'an was located, had been occupied by the Qing army, and Li Guogao's first meritorious army had to enter Sichuan through Longxi, Gansu, and went south through Hanzhong all the way to the riverside.

However, as soon as he arrived in the south, he received the news that the Shun army had once again defeated Emperor Li Zicheng and was killed. The Xilu Shunjun could only stop in Kuizhou to wait and see.

The Shun army of the East Road with Li Zicheng was divided into two parts with Li Zicheng's martyrdom, one part surrendered to the Ming Dynasty with Hao Shaoqi, and the other part was led by Tian Jianxiu and Yuan Zongdi, pretending to negotiate with the Ming court, but taking the opportunity to go to Kuizhou through Huguang and join Li Guobu. During this period, He Tengjiao, the governor of Minghuguang, repeatedly sent troops to attack, but was defeated by the Shun army mourning soldiers who crossed the border, and finally allowed this army of only more than 30,000 people to go west to Kuizhou.

Li Guo, Yuan Zongdi, Tian Jianxiu, Gao Yigong, etc. are all old people in northern Shaanxi, who have fought with the Ming army for more than ten years and are unwilling to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. After the convergence, he still took the name of Dashun State, and set up Li Zicheng's younger brother Li Zijing as the new lord of Dashun, and named Empress Gao as the queen mother, and re-established the Dashun regime in Kuizhou.

After that, Li Guo and others have been thinking about going out of Kuizhou to attack the land of Daming Lake, but the Ming army led by He Tengjiao was there, and the traitor Hao Shaoqi was also transferred to Jingzhou to strictly defend the Shun army. The march out of Sichuan did not go well, and Li Zijing's prestige and ability were not enough to convince the public. In addition, the generals within the Shun army are not subordinate to each other, and it is not easy to coordinate with each other, and it is difficult to form a unified action without the pressure of such prestigious people as Li Zicheng and Liu Zongmin.

In the Shun army, a tiger Li Guo is Li Zicheng's nephew, the most loyal to Dashun, the most urgent to rebuild Dashun, in order to coordinate the generals, he has been actively running. However, although he is Li Zicheng's nephew, his merits are also outstanding, and he is a general, and it is difficult for important generals like Yuan Zongdi and Tian Jianxiu to listen to him, and Li Guo has been worried.

On this day, a group of envoys suddenly came from the west and brought the holy decree of Zhang Xianzhong, the emperor of the Great Western Kingdom. Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng are giants from northern Shaanxi, and they have always cooperated and competed, and Li Zicheng also had the intention of killing Zhang Xianzhong and annexing his subordinates, so it is really inseparable from friend and foe between the two forces.

After Li Zicheng established Dashun in Xi'an, Zhang Xianzhong also invaded Sichuan and proclaimed himself emperor in Chengdu to establish the Great Western Kingdom. Although compared with the achievements of Dashun, Daxi was much weaker, but because of his bias in Sichuan, Daxi was not hit by the Qing army, and the Ming army was in a hurry to deal with the Qing army's southward movement, and did not focus on Sichuan. So the Onishi regime was able to develop in Sichuan.
