Chapter 823: Heading North

The wedding held by Huang Sheng in the sixteenth year of Chongzhen was just right.

Lan Caier, Wu Xiang, Zhang Weixian's old grandfather, cabinet ministers Liang Tingdong and Zhang Fengyi, and the cabinet elders Gao Di and Wang Zhichen who returned to their hometowns all tried their best to invite the Ming Dynasty to watch the ceremony in the "Nanming".

Lan Cai'er even generously paid money to bear the expenses needed for the exchange of some Qingliu ministers from poor families, and she didn't give face for such a sincere invitation, because she was pretentious and looked down on Huang Sheng's actions, or because she didn't want Chongzhen to notice that she was close to "Nanming" and affected her career.

It can be seen that many civilian, military and noble people who stayed in the capital did not go to "New Hangzhou" to add icing on the cake to the wedding of the "Nanming" and Ming marriages, which is enough to show that a considerable number of people may not be friendly to Huang Sheng.

And among these civil officials and military generals, there are not a few moral gentlemen, rather than being suppressed by the famous "God of War" soldiers, it is better to fake his hands and break into thieves, and let him make a wedding dress for "Nanming".

After Li Duyan's torture and education, the moral gentleman who can survive should raise the standard of looking at the problem, and it is difficult to say whether he still has the lofty ambition to kill and not be humiliated.

Most of the scholars who were ravaged by the thieves cried so much that they rushed to welcome the king of the south into the capital and became the pride of the sky.

O man! Sometimes it's just that cheap. If you don't let them taste the bitterness, you won't know what a sweet life is. The great emperor treated the scholars well, and these people kicked their noses and faced to challenge the imperial power.

Later, they surrendered to the Manchus as slaves, and the slave owners did not give them a good face and directly raised the butcher knife, these scholars and doctors were like good grandsons, not only writing articles to wash the ground for their surrender to the Manchus as slaves, but also sparing no effort to black the Ming Dynasty.

In the end, they came to the conclusion that the Ming Emperors were not good birds, and most of them were faint monarchs and tyrants.

The Manchu slave owners were all good emperors, not a single tyrant or faint monarch, but there were a few mediocre monarchs, and even the murderous demon king Nurhachi was crowned with ten great merits.

They spared no effort to advocate the first emperor of the ages, Kang Mazi, and advocated that the common people could eat sweet potatoes and not starve to death, but they did not know that the Han people were far behind the Ming Dynasty in intelligence and height due to the cruel and foolish rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Huang Sheng is engaged in conspiracy and trickery, and while calculating the Ming Dynasty, he is also calculating the Ming Doctor who does not stand in his own camp.

Presumably, after experiencing the "Jiashen National Disaster", the surviving moral gentlemen should mourn, and their combat effectiveness and fighting enthusiasm will be greatly reduced.

If you don't use thunderbolts, how can you show the bodhisattva's heart? If there are still Huang Daozhou and others who resolutely refuse to cooperate, Huang Sheng will of course crack down on them.

They must not be allowed to become the mouthpieces of the anti-government camp, and it is a good idea to relocate their three ethnic groups to Australia and North America.

Since most of the earliest colonists in the new territory were criminal offenders and foreign servants, the addition of political prisoners of the scholar class was conducive to the indoctrination of the colony and could make the new territory more healthy.

Huang Sheng led his troops to the north this time, but Queen Zhang Chuer was not accompanied, and Zhao Rui and Gu Linger also stayed in "New Hangzhou", after all, they also have a lot of work on their hands, and the industries to manage are not young and old.

During the days when Huang Sheng left, the prince Huang Hao was in charge of the country.

The civil servants who assisted the prince and the state included Zhao Shimin, Xu Guangqi, Gu Shanhai, Sun Yuanhua, Wu Houlu, Zhu Chenggong, Wu Sanfeng, Lin Shunshi, etc., and the military attachés were Huang Dongshan, Cheng Quangong, Han Guang, Quan Yong, Cao Hucheng, Cao Wenzhao, and so on.

The Straits of Malacca and the Sunda Strait have been controlled for many years, the island of Java and Borneo have become the inherent territory of the Han Chinese, and the former Gulf of Thailand and the current "New Hangzhou" Bay and the mainland around the South China Sea are all "Nanming" territories.

The "New Hangzhou" Bay and the South China Sea are now the "Nanming" inland seas, and there are warship formations that patrol irregularly, and merchant ships of other countries that enter without permission are directly confiscated, and warships of other countries entering this sea area are considered invasions and are directly sunk.

"New Hangzhou" has elite soldiers and strong generals to stay behind, there are strong ships and guns cruising on the sea, and other countries will not be able to attack at all, and they will be discovered when they pass through the Malacca or Sunda Strait, so Huang Sheng led a large number of navy and army to the north without worrying about the future.

Concubine Lan Xizizi accompanied the king of the south to the north, and she did things from beginning to end, and sent the guests she personally invited back to the capital safely.

Rumeng, Liu Ruyi, and Chen Yuanyuan are of course together, and the crew they have put in their hard work has also dispatched capable forces, and everyone in these entertainment circles will personally go to the grassroots level, and with the "King's Woman" leading the crew to the front line for a condolence performance, it will better motivate morale.

Princess Hexiang is one of the chief officers of the Military Intelligence Department, and she needs to gather information at any time and hand it over to King Nan for decision, she is indispensable, and of course she has always accompanied her husband.

There is another purpose for going north this time - to send the Empress Daming and the prince home, and of course Xiao Kunxing must take it with him.

If there are many women who follow, you have to manage, and it all depends on consciousness and humility to do it occasionally, but of course you can't live for a long time.

The "Nanming" law prohibits any castration, but it does not mean that there are no eunuchs.

Huang Sheng had eunuchs around him, and there were quite a few of them, most of them were the spoils of war to destroy the countries of Southeast Asia, some were Kun Xing's dowries, and many were eunuchs who were dismissed from the Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty accepted by Concubine Lan.

Who sleeps at night has formed a system, of course, Queen Chu'er copied the rules of the Ming harem, and the eunuch will hold the sign of the harem woman brought by the king of the south for Huang Sheng to choose.

This is originally a patriarchal society, women are subordinate, of course the king is more high, if the king's woman is not managed, wouldn't it be a mess, the king is excited to spoil a certain woman, and find that the red light is on, how can it? The female officials and eunuchs in charge of the affairs will not be able to eat and walk around.

Seeing that it was not far from Huangjiawan Island, Nanwang turned over Kunxing's sign at night, not for that but to have a good chat with her.

In the past few days, due to the difficulty of sleeping and eating, Xiao Kunxing is obviously a little haggard, but she is still gentle and pretends to face her husband with a smile.

Huang Sheng looked at her pitiful appearance and smiled: "Are you still worried about your father and brother?" To tell you a good news, the British Gongzhang Zhiji has protected the prince of the East Palace of the Ming Dynasty and fled to Tianjin Wei.

Now your brother is safe and secure under the protection of the 'Nanming' army, which is no less than 50,000 horses. Our fleet will soon arrive on Huangjiawan Island, and I have already had your brother fetched to meet you on the island, and you should see him soon. ”

Du Fu has a poem "The beacon fire is even in March, and the family letter is worth 10,000 gold", and the anxious Kunxing is not looking forward to the news of the safety of his relatives, and he is happy to hear his husband tell him that his brother is still alive, and now he is living well in Tianjin Wei.

She got into her husband's arms and said coquettishly: "Husband, thank you for treating your concubine's family, the concubine knows how bad it is, and the concubine will do her best to do everything for her husband." ”
