The junction of Jiangxi and Huguang was a vacuum zone between the Ming and Qing armies, and the Gongyi battalion went all the way south without encountering any obstacles, and rushed to Nanxiong Mansion along the way.

Emperor Longwu arrived two days early, and was waiting for him, to deal with the local snake Ding Kuichu, the other troops were unreliable, and they had to rely on the Gongyi battalion.

After Emperor Longwu saw Wang Kefan, he summoned him almost every day, and the two of them discussed until late at night, and the other officials were amazed, and Emperor Longwu had never been so kind to any minister since he ascended the throne for more than a year......

Those who came back with Emperor Longwu, in addition to Fu Guan and other ministers, also had seven or eight thousand Ming troops escorted, including Shi Lang, Zhao Yinxuan, and Liang Zhiren of Guangdong, while the troops of Tong Yizhen and others were left in Ganzhou.

This is the result of Emperor Longwu's careful arrangement, Tong Yizhen and Ding Kuichu have a relatively close relationship, but Liang Zhiren is relatively unusable.

The Gongyi battalion attacked Pizhen and became a big hero who won the battle of Ganzhou, several generals were very admired, and even Shi Lang, who had always been arrogant, bowed his head, and asked Wang Kefan for advice, asked about the details of the battle of Pizhen, and went to the Gongyi battalion to visit carefully and learn Wang Kefan's experience in leading troops.

This is Shi Lang's characteristic, when Gongyi Camp does what he can't do, Shi Lang will not stare at and refuse to admit it, but put down the shelf to learn the other party's strengths.

The civilian officials have more contact with Wang Kefan, and the cabinet bigwigs have sent people to greet them, which is very rare for them...... Whether they accept it or not, the alliance between Wang Kefan and Fu Guan represents a new political force, which has both the trust of the emperor and the backing of the army, and is rising rapidly in an irreversible manner.

With one military victory after another, the influence of this political force grew, before there was a conflict of interest. These old fritters in the officialdom do not want to make one more enemy out of thin air, but are thinking about how to use this new political force.

Fu Guan is also looking for a balance point in politics, the Donglin Party and the southern faction in the cabinet are evenly matched, only he is a lonely person, but he advances and retreats freely, the specific positions of these bigwigs in the cabinet are basically finalized, and it is an open secret that Fu Guan wants to serve as the imperial history of the left capital.

Among the important ministers around Emperor Longwu, Su Guansheng did not enter the cabinet and did not arrange any positions, so he hung there all the time. About the reason for this. There are all kinds of speculations, such as that Su Guansheng was not from the orthodox imperial examination and could not enter the cabinet, and there is also a theory that Su Guansheng tried to support the Tang Dynasty and touched the mold of Emperor Longwu......

This statement has also been verified by facts. Hearing that Emperor Longwu had returned victoriously, Su Guansheng came from Guangzhou to meet him. But he only stayed for one night and was driven back by Emperor Longwu. But what they don't know is. When Emperor Longwu summoned Su Guansheng alone, Su Guansheng was moved to tears......

After Hua Xiaoyue saw Wang Kefan, she hurriedly reported that she had been dressed up at Pang Tianshou, but strangely, there was no movement in this matter later, and Hua Xiaoyue waited for more than ten days in fear. No one came to her trouble.

Hearing that Hua Xiaoyue's female dress as a man was recognized, Wang Kefan was not nervous.

He pushed Hua Xiaoyue to the front to use her identity as a magic stick, and there were some things that the traverser couldn't explain to others. Some words are said that others will not believe, with the help of Hua Xiaoyue, things are much easier.

As long as the god stick is right, it doesn't matter if it is a man or a woman, even if it is recognized by Emperor Longwu, there will be no consequences of being too strict. But then again, no one will believe that a little girl will be a god, and it is certainly better to hide it.

Judging from various circumstances, it should be Pang Tianshou who suppressed this matter, he didn't tell others about Hua Xiaoyue's secret, eunuchs are really different from ordinary people, they are more sensitive to the difference between men and women, Pang Tianshou is old and sophisticated, and it is normal to recognize Hua Xiaoyue.

"Don't you care, even if the emperor knows, if you are a little girl messing around, can you still kill your head?" Seeing Hua Xiaoyue's anxious appearance, Wang Kefan felt very ridiculous, and it was inconvenient to find out other deep-seated reasons, so he casually found a reason to comfort him.

"I'm not afraid of killing my head, I'm afraid of delaying Master's big event."

"Did you say everything you said to the emperor?"

"It's all said, Huguang He Tengjiao can't stand it, Sichuan Zhang Xianzhong is dying......" Hua Xiaoyue's eyes flashed with admiration, she knew that she was just a god pretending to be a ghost, and Wang Kefan was the real prophet of the unknown.

"Okay, you go down, what should I do in the future, what will I do, since Grandpa Pang has not exposed you, he will not expose you in the future, just be careful." Wang Kefan hurriedly sent her away, and the conversation continued, Hua Xiaoyue should be pestering to learn spells again.

"Master, shouldn't you go to him? Pang Gonggong may be aiming at you. "Hua Xiaoyue is very smart, and she has been thinking about this matter repeatedly these days, and she has guessed some truths.

"No, wait for him to come to me." Of course, Wang Kefan understands that Pang Tianshou's appearance must have other plans, otherwise he would not have to deliberately break it in front of Hua Xiaoyue. At this time, he came to the door in a panic, but was looked down upon by the other party.

Since Pang Tianshou has made a move, he will definitely have the next move......

Sure enough, when the army arrived in Yingde County to rest, Pang Tianshou sent someone to send a post, and Wang Kefan happily went to the appointment.

"General Wang, please try it, this is a famous tea from Yingde, fragrant and mellow, and both......"

The two exchanged pleasantries and talked about some ups and downs, and Pang Tianshou gradually brought the topic to Catholicism.

"Hey! The light of the Lord has shone on Peking, but the Tartars are all evil infidels......"

Pang Tianshou, as a big eunuch, was full of half-incomhisible Bible language, and sandwiched some of our family and the emperor in the middle, which sounded very discordant, and Wang Kefan took a lot of effort to understand what he meant.

The relationship between Catholicism and the Ming Dynasty has always been good, Chongzhen was quite supportive of Catholicism, but the Manchu Qing Dynasty suppressed Catholicism very badly, so the missionaries supported the Southern Ming.

Pang Tianshou wanted to help the missionaries and spread Catholicism in Nanming, but he was unanimously opposed by the ministers, and Emperor Longwu did not support him, so he went to Wang Kefan to find an alliance.

"Since Pang Gong has spoken publicly, there is no reason for the general to stand idly by, but the emperor is there, don't be in a hurry......"

Wang Kefan has no feeling for Catholicism, and he can't talk about appreciating or disgusting it, but Western scientific knowledge is about to enter a period of explosive development, and Newton and other scientific giants are about to emerge, and China urgently needs to open its eyes to the world and introduce Western scientific knowledge, and missionaries are a good medium.

But Wang Kefan also reminded Pang Tianshou not to go too far with Emperor Longwu, a nation needs to have its own identity, its own culture, and the dignified Emperor Ming became a Catholic believer, which is definitely not appropriate. (To be continued......)
