Chapter 304: Countermeasures
In the chamber of the governor of Liangguang, the martyrdom of Emperor Chongzhen has been discussed for a long time, and officials at all levels in Liangguang do not have much idea about who will be the emperor, but someone must be able to ensure that their existing interests remain unchanged.

If you want the existing interests to remain unchanged, it is actually not very difficult, that is, Shen Youlong continues to govern in Liangguang, and if he can be called emperor, then it will be better, but Shen Youlong has made it clear that he will not be called emperor and will continue to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty.
This made some people a little too worried, after all, if that were the case, it was possible that the new court might send someone they didn't want to take on the position of governor.
So in this case, the officials fell into a kind of panic, they were worried about whether they could ensure that the current interests remained unchanged, so they gathered here to hear what Lao Shen thought, how they could respond, and even some people had come up with a way to use the yellow robe to force Lao Shen to agree, but this was not the best policy in the end.
"My lord, now that the kings of Jiangnan have different intentions, and the general soldiers of each town are also watching and not moving, how should we deal with it."
How to deal with it, it is naturally the best to ensure that the current situation remains unchanged, does it need to be said, Lao Shen has discussed it with Zhou Yang, and can ensure that the current situation is the best, but there is no guarantee and no way, that is, it can only use force.
Now everyone wants to be the emperor, but it's not like that, it's absolutely impossible to say that other people don't have a little idea, so Lao Shen also knows that he has to appease these people below.
"Ladies and gentlemen, since Shen has only been in charge of the military administration of Liangguang, he has achieved a lot of results, which is indispensable for your help and credit, but now that the emperor has gone, and the princes from all walks of life have different intentions, the achievements of our Liangguang in the past few years are also obvious to all, and the old man really can't bear to ruin the achievements of the past few years."
What Shen Youlong said was from his heart, Liangguang's current achievements were indeed unbearable to let him be ruined in the hands of others, and many officials below also had this idea, after all, they were much more loved now than before.
It can be said that it is very difficult to live without relying on absorbing the people's fat and people's ointment from the people, and now they can get a lot of silver just by relying on the immigration subsidy, and there are some other enterprises led by the Liangguang government to pay dividends.
Relying on these things alone can make a lot of profits, and at the same time bring a very high prestige, how can you say that you can still choose corruption, and if you want to be corrupt in this situation, then there is really nothing to say.
Moreover, Lao Shen actually has a plan for the promotion of officials who has not yet been introduced, this part of the people knows, it is very useful to them, and whether they can continue to ensure that the current situation is very important to them.
"What the adults said is that the lives of the people in Liangguang have been getting better and better in recent years, and if there are changes in the adults now, I am afraid that these achievements will come to naught."
There are not a few officials who have this kind of thinking, so they still hope that Lao Shen can take over this position.
It's just that Lao Shen is not interested in being the emperor.
"My lord, there are only two ways to ensure the situation of Liangguang at the moment, one is that you continue to serve as the governor, and we will openly obey the dispatch of the new court, but if they want to meddle in the affairs of Liangguang, they don't have to listen to them, and the other is that you will ascend the throne as emperor, and we have no point in this."
In fact, everyone understands very well in their hearts that it is impossible for Lao Shen to ascend the throne as the emperor, and it is impossible for him to do so, so the most direct way may be the first one at present.
This is actually Lao Shen's own meaning, at the moment, everyone from all walks of life is ready to move, we can continue to say on the surface that we want to find others who the former crown prince does not admit to it, so as to ensure our own interests.
With the strength of Liangguang, it is still possible to defeat these people, and there is no need to be afraid of them at all, not to mention that there is still a force in the hands of the governor who has not been dispatched.
I don't know how effective the new army units are, but the firearms are very sharp, and this cannot be questioned by others, and everyone has seen Australian firearms.
As long as Shen Youlong agrees to support them, then they can get a very large territory, not to mention, they can also mobilize the forces of Liangguang for their own use.
But Shen Youlong's attitude towards people from all walks of life is very the same, he does not support or oppose it, but he just says that the most important thing for everyone to do at this time is to unify and deal with Li Zicheng together, and now that the north has basically been unified by him, it is possible to use troops against Jiangnan next.
If you use troops against Jiangnan, if everyone is inconsistent with the outside world at this time, it goes without saying what kind of result may lead to in the end, that is, the revenge of the last king who was defeated by the enemy will definitely not be avenged.
So we still have to join forces together, it's a bit early to support who at this time, the old province's external statement is like this, but at the same time, it also shows a truth who he doesn't support.
This statement is somewhat similar to Zheng Zhilong, the two seem to have discussed this way, and they want to unanimously confront Li Zicheng, which is still a bit early for them to see who is on the throne now.
Although there is such a meaning, the deployment of the two forces has changed greatly, and a large part of the troops are deployed to the border with them, which is obviously to guard against them, and at the same time it is another signal, that is, they are going to start using troops in these places.
After all, everyone will be a little selfish at this time, not everyone is so selfless, he Shen Youlong would not do this if he was selfless, and it is impossible not to support anyone at this time.
To put it bluntly, he still wants to hold on to the military and political money of Liangguang, and the feudal officials at this time are much more popular than the imperial court officials, because the local feudal officials have great power, and at this time they can completely disobey the dispatch of the imperial court.
It's not the first time that this kind of thing has happened a lot over the ages, so there's no fuss, so Shen Youlong's way of coping with it is still very good, at least this can show that he agrees with Zhou Yang's advice very much.
For the variables of the Ming Dynasty, Australia is currently also in an emergency response, increasing troops and expanding recruitment has become the first major task, and now it is the specific time to participate in the war of the Ming Dynasty has not yet been decided, and the others can basically be said to have reached a preliminary coordination.
