Chapter 682: The Stubborn Ming
Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo, went out of the class to play haha and said with mud: "Don't fight, the king of the south is still a minister of the Ming Dynasty, he still takes the people and horses to kill thieves for the country, even if Hainan Island is given to the king of the south as a fief, it is also the land of the Ming Dynasty, and it is indispensable." ”
The unrelenting Huang Daozhou said: "How can this be reasonable, how can the ancestral foundation be such a child's play!" ”
Wu Xiang said: "The king of the south is stationed in Daming Xindi, and I am not abandoning this place, where is the play?" ”
Zodiac Zhou is in high spirits,......。
The court turned into a vegetable market and made a mess, and in the end it ended in nothing, and the tired Emperor Chongzhen returned to the imperial study to sulk after announcing the renegotiation.
British Gong Zhang Weixian and Zhang Zhiji tried to avoid suspicion, and they did not go to the court for the past few days, but their father and son were able to learn about the situation of the court meeting at the first time.
This is human nature, the British public family originally belonged to the power of the government and the opposition, and the king of the south was powerful, except for the zodiac Zhou and the likes of the sake, who would not want to be friendly with the king of the south? Of course, the father-in-law who made friends with the king of the south will also spare no effort.
As soon as the dynasty was dispersed, a group of civilians, warriors and nobles came to the British mansion to ask for a glass of wine.
Zhang Weixian and Zhang Zhiji of course welcomed it, and immediately set up a banquet to drink with their colleagues.
The adults at the banquet all supported the establishment of the Nanwang overseas state, and they believed that the Nanwang's move would benefit the country and the people and themselves.
The British duke lamented that his son-in-law dared to act, and the matter of establishing an overseas state was obviously to negotiate conditions with the imperial court, in order to get rid of the embarrassing identity of the Ming vassal king, so that the "God of War" system could obtain supreme royal power without meeting with the Ming soldiers.
The imperial court recognized the status of the vassal state of the Southern King, and the son-in-law who had the royal power could justifiably canonize the officials and generals under his command, and it was reasonable to have his own national army, and he was no longer raising private soldiers.
After sending away the adults who came to ventilate the news, Zhang Weixian, Zhang Zhiji and a few older concubines talked about Huang Sheng's layout and purpose, and they all called out one by one.
Zhang Weixian learned the methods of his son-in-law, and finally felt that he was old, and it was time for Zhang Zhiji to attack the knight.
When the old lady of the British family learned everything, her heart was full of thoughts, she expected her son-in-law to go further, but she was afraid that he would be too cold from a high place and entangled!
Just after the dispersal of the dynasty, Gao Di and Wang Zhichen, Liang Tingdong, Wu Xiang, etc. did not delay for a moment, and immediately came to the big tent of the Nanwang Zhongjun outside the Guangqu Gate to discuss matters.
When they came to the "God of War", the Chinese army found that Mo Daojun was early and there were more early pedestrians.
More than 100 civilians, military generals, and nobles of the Ming Dynasty have gathered, and there are actually a few Qingliu from the Hanlin Academy who are also drinking and chatting.
Nanwang treats the Ming civil and military well, loves the people like a son has won the hearts of the people, and has taken benefit sharing to unite the vested interests, and now the proportion of the Ming civil and military forces that expect the stability of Huang Sheng's regime has exceeded seventy.
Now everyone knows that there is a suspicion of military admonition in the suburbs of Nanwangtun Bingjing, but no one has broken it, and everyone expects Nanwang to build a country overseas.
It's all your own people, even if there are the emperor's eyes and ears inside, what's the matter? In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are scum.
Huang Sheng and the dignitaries chatted while drinking, clarified their attitude, and said that they would never turn against the Son of Heaven and never meet the Ming Dynasty, on the contrary, they would do their best to help the Ming Dynasty deal with internal and external troubles if they could.
Huang Sheng finally discussed the next move with Gao Di, Wu Xiang and more than a dozen other "God of War" ties, and explained the purpose that must be achieved in this trip to Gyeonggi.
Wu Xiang and a few people rushed back with Zhun Xinxing, they belonged to the two boats, and both parties could eat openly, and the small life was nourishing.
This time, for the sake of King Nan, he will definitely get the favor of King Nan, and the benefits in the future should not be less.
The emperor saw the song of the king of the south in the evening, the content was very simple, ask the emperor to pay off the military expenses paid in advance, and the "god of war" people and horses immediately returned to the fiefdom, and Huang Sheng did not mention the consequences of not giving money and food.
Just a euphemistic statement, if the court is really difficult to be accommodating, please ask the court to appoint the minister Huang Daozhou to discuss how to repay the loan, if the negotiation fails, please Huang Daozhou to go to the army to explain.
The king of the south did not want to be canonized and asked for the arrears of the imperial court, Chongzhen, who couldn't take out so much silver, was still helpless, and he passed Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun, two confidants and eunuchs, to question.
Cao Huachun told the information collected by Dongchang and Jinyiwei 1510, and finally Cao Huachun knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the old slave has a sentence that is not unpleasant. ”
Chongzhen's IQ is not low, and he immediately knew what this big companion meant, and said: "Cao Banban, is it enough to give the treatment of the Nanwang vassal state?" From the king of Qiongya County to the king of the south, isn't he forcing me step by step? Now that the soldiers are coming to the city, the court will eventually be exhausted if they repeatedly retreat! ”
Cao Huachun saw that the emperor still seemed to be unwilling to compromise, and said quietly: "King Nan is like this, what can Your Majesty do?" The king of the south will lose face just by forcing the debt, and the court will lose face! ”
Chongzhen, who is poor and short-minded, is completely speechless, and the king of the south does not withdraw his troops or rebel, so he asks the court to repay his debts outside the Guangqu Gate, how can he deal with it?
Hit him? Obviously, it can't be beaten! Don't give silver? That's a trick, even the people of Shengdou will spit on it! The dignified son of heaven owes money and does not pay it back, and it seems a little unorthodox to use swords and soldiers.
Wang Chengen said boldly: "Your Majesty, the slave maid thinks that the king of the south is actually willing to serve the Ming Dynasty, and the king of the south will become the foreign aid of the Ming Dynasty when he obtains the treatment of a vassal state, and the Ming Dynasty has no loss at all, the slave maid asks Your Majesty to think twice!" ”
In fact, the emperor has nothing to do, he understands a little, politics is originally a kind of compromise, sometimes a step back and sometimes a step further, how to advance and retreat depends on strength.
Chongzhen has never understood politics very well, so he often raises a butcher's knife and kills them, in fact, it is not advisable to kill ministers and important ministers at all, and learning to kill them and squeeze them dry is the master.
Today he found that Huang Sheng, the king of the south, couldn't figure it out at all, and finally chose to take a step back, in fact, take a step back and open the sky, sometimes the too stubborn Ming is self-defeating.
Chongzhen looked at Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun, the two confidant eunuchs, and he waved his hand weakly when he was physically and mentally exhausted, and said, "I hope so!" ”
Cao Huachun retreated with trepidation, and only Wang Chengen was waiting in the imperial study.
Wang Chengen, who returned to the Forbidden City, did not hide it, and told the emperor what he had seen and heard during these days and the measures of King Nan.
Chongzhen saw that Wang Chengen did not speak well for the king of the south at all, but sought truth from facts and objectively reflected the problem, and attached more importance to him.
The emperor, who couldn't make a decision in his heart, looked at Wang Chengen, who was waiting carefully, and asked, "Wang Banban, you have stayed in the Southern Wang's army for many days this time, do you know how many people and horses have come under his command this time?" How many percent of the total number of people in Zhannan Wang? ”
