The death of Tokugawa Iemitsu made the originally turbulent Toei even more chaotic, and even broke out in an attempted ronin riot. The situation in the whole of Toei has completely turned to Kyushu.

Honshu was originally the territory of Toyotomi Hideyori, but after the Osaka Summer War, the Toyotomi clan was wiped out by the Tokugawa family, and the Toyotomi family was also extinct. However, in, there are still a large number of people who support and support the Toyotomi family at the same time. Kyushu gained power, and many daimyo in the area fell to Kyushu, and even took the initiative to contact Kyushu.

"At present, the daimyo of the Ayabe Domain of, Kuki Takatsune, and the Tani Eimasa of the Yamake Domain have made it clear that they support our army." Zheng Zhibao said softly.

"It's a pity that these two domains are small domains, if it's a big domain, we can send troops now." Zheng Zhilong said regretfully.

"In, it's just that the Kishu domain is a big domain, but the Kishu domain is a pro-domain, and it is owned by the Tokugawa family, and it is impossible for them to surrender, and there is only one way to conquer and kill." Zheng Zhihu said.

"Now Tokugawa Iemitsu has died of illness, the new general Tokugawa Ietsuna is only nine years old, the Tokugawa family took advantage of Toyotomi Hideyori's young age, seized the world of the Toyotomi family, and even killed the Toyotomi family, today is the cycle of cause and effect, retribution is not happy, we should take advantage of the chaos of the shogunate, seize, seize Kyoto, capture Osaka, then the world can be determined." Zheng Zhibao strongly recommended that troops should be sent immediately.

"Father, I suggest that after March next year, we will send troops to, and the northeastern part of Honshu will be newly attached, and it will take time to integrate, and after March next year, the problem of our army's food and salary will be solved." Zheng Sen dissuaded.

In the last campaign to capture the northeastern part of Honshu, Kyushu gained a lot of wealth, but it consumed a lot of military supplies, and it was impossible to convert this wealth into military supplies immediately, which took time.

"Lord Wang, I also think that it is best to wait until after the beginning of spring next year, first, to take into account morale and other issues, after all, repeated battles are a test for soldiers; Second, we have obtained a huge amount of wealth from the northeast of Honshu and are now purchasing arms and materials from Daming, and when all these materials arrive in Dongying, it will be early next year. Shi Daxuan suggested.

Zheng Zhihu thought for a while and said, "Then we will wait until after the beginning of spring next year to raise troops to attack the shogunate, and we must take in one fell swoop, and strive to move the capital to Kyoto next year." ”

"No." The crowd replied in a loud voice.

……

In Beijing, Zhu Youxiao also paid great attention to the war in Dongying.

"Tokugawa Iemitsu died of illness, which is a godsend for Kyushu, and it seems that Toei will end in a few years." Zhu Youxiao sighed as he looked at the intelligence from Dongying.

"As long as the king of Kyushu doesn't die by himself, there is basically no suspense in the Dongying war." Chen Si agreed.

"Send more manpower to protect Liangren, and there can be no mistakes." Zhu Youxiao thought about it and said.

"No. The East Factory will send another group of people to Dongying, and at the same time, the East Factory will continue to develop local manpower in Dongying. Chen Si nodded.

"Support Zheng Sen to ascend to the throne, I don't want to see Zheng Zhilong's other sons ascend to the throne."

"No."

"After entering Kyoto, the emperor's family will be slaughtered, and no one will be left alive."

"But our manpower in Dongying is now under the command of Zhonggong Niangniang, and I can't mobilize it."

"Dongying's Dongchang is a gift from me to Wang Sai'er, and if Wang Sai'er wants to control the situation, he must have a force of his own. I asked Dongchang to develop a new force, and after entering Kyoto, I believe that Wang Sai'er will do it himself, and you are only assisting Wang Sai'er. ”

"No."

……

Back in the harem, Zhu Youxiao found Gu Mei staying in the palace in a daze.

"Ci Ji went to Lengzhou, didn't you send him off?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"No, the concubine is afraid that she will be reluctant to see it." Gu Mei said softly.

"I'll tell you a story about the eagle!"

"Hmm." Gu Mei nodded.

"A few days after the young eagle is born, it learns to compete for food from its mother's mouth; Next, the mother eagle will take the young eagle to the edge of the cliff and push the young eagle down to practice flying at high altitude, many of which are killed, and many of the young eagles become flying sacrifices. One young eagle after another died, but the mother eagle would not stop this bloody training, because she understood that this kind of injury was a necessary stage for growing into a young eagle. Zhu Youxiao didn't know if the story was true or false, but he didn't want to explore it, and he deleted the most cruel parts of the story.

"Thank you, Emperor! After listening to the emperor's story, the concubine felt much more comfortable. Gu Mei said softly.

"Your decision to let Ci Ji go to Leng Zhou is correct, stay in Jingshi, Ci Ji is just a do-nothing prince in the end, his identity as a concubine makes it impossible for him to become a candidate for the crown prince, this is not something that can be changed in a short period of time, and if you go to Leng Zhou, if Ci Ji is willing to work hard, he will become a real king of Leng Zhou." Zhu Youxiao said.

"The concubine understands, the concubine just wanted to let Ci Ji go to Lengzhou."

"I'm still saying that, if you want to go with Ci Ji, I'll agree to let you go with you."

"No, the concubine still wants to stay by the emperor's side and wait for the emperor, and Ciji's path should be let him go by himself."

"I am going to split the shares of Ruixiang Woolen into ten shares, two of which will be given to you, and the remaining eight shares will be temporarily left in the royal family for later distribution." Zhu Youxiao said.

"Your Majesty, the concubine earns enough dividends from Ruixiang woolen every year, and Ruixiang's share concubine doesn't dare to ask for it, and she can't ask for it." Gu Meiwan refused. Ruixiang woolen annual profit as much as millions of taels of silver, two percent of the dividends of the shares of hundreds of thousands of taels per year, this is not counting the value of the two percent of the shares themselves.

"I have made up my mind, you don't have to postpone it, Ci Ji went to Lengzhou, if he is willing to do what he does with his heart, the expenses will definitely be very large, with the support of Ruixiang woolen dividends, he can show his strength. And I will also operate the shares of Fengqiuhuang in the same way, and Xiaoxiao here, I will also give her 20% of the shares. ”

"Thank Emperor Longen!"

……

Xiaoxiao heard that Zhu Youxiao wanted to give her 20% of the shares of the phoenix, but she also refused at first, and Zhu Youxiao's move even made her feel a little angry.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is in the palace, and she has never worried about food and clothing, what do you want this share for?" Xiaoxiao also refused.

"Xiaoxiao, this is what you deserve, without you, there would be no Phoenix today, and these two shares can also be regarded as the dowry you give to your daughter when she marries in the future." Zhu Youxiao persuaded him.

"The dowry has its own royal arrangement, and the emperor doesn't have to do anything else." Little trail.

"This is my will, and I cannot refuse it."
