Chapter 622: What King Tang did, King Han could do too

Pan Yinglong and Hong Yuao actually have their own attitudes towards whether to support the Tang Dynasty and supervise the country. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 When the info news first came from Yuanzhou, Pan Yinglong said to Hong Yuao, Li Laiheng and others that although the Son of Heaven abandoned the country and fled to Burma, he probably had to temporarily avoid his vassals under the pressure of the Qing army, not because he intended to abandon the country. Therefore, it is not appropriate to establish a separate prison country in the country, even if it is the heart of the army and the people, it should wait for a while, and wait for the specific news from the imperial court from the Burmese state. If you rush to support the Tang Dynasty now, if you don't do it well, you will repeat the Tang Gui dispute, which will not help the overall situation.

Hong Yuao's view is the opposite, he clearly pointed out that Yongli has now fled to Burma, so for the monarch to abandon his country, abandon his subjects, the dynasty for two hundred and eighty years, how can there ever be a monarch who abandoned the country and fled, that is, Emperor Yingzong was only captured and forced to hunt north, so the Guangdong side proposed to support the Tang Dynasty under the premise of Yongli abandoning the country, and the righteousness of the Tang Dynasty should be supported by Kuidong, so as to clean up the hearts of the people, so that the army and people of the world to resist the Qing Dynasty will not despair because of Yongli's abandonment of the country.

Obviously, Hong Yuao resolutely supported the establishment of the Tang Dynasty and the Jianguo, because when Emperor Longwu entered Fujian from Zhejiang, he went to meet him as a local being, and was awarded the Hengzhou General Judgment to embark on a career as an official. And he can have today, it is also due to Emperor Longwu's simple pulling, if it weren't for Emperor Longwu's power to disagree with the public, I'm afraid he would still be a little Baili Hou. Therefore, in public and private, in sentiment and reason, Hong Yuao should support the Tang Dynasty and supervise the country.

Pan Yinglong and Hong Yuao did not reach an opinion, but the two sides were also clear about the current situation, so they did not turn their faces around, and each pulled together a group of military leaders to oppose each other, and then fought against each other again. The lesson of the Tang Gui dispute back then was too profound, how could the two repeat the mistakes of the past. Moreover, when the news of Yongli's abandonment came, they had lost the righteousness of the imperial court in a sense, so it was no longer up to them to decide whether to support the Tang Dynasty and supervise the country, but the decision of Huguang, a group of leaders with military power. These people were either the remnants of the Shun army, or they were the loess bandits, and none of them had not rebelled against the Ming Dynasty, so Pan Yinglong and Hong Yuao were worried about whether they would be able to resist the Qing Dynasty after knowing that the Yongli Emperor had abandoned the country. In case these military leaders no longer serve the Ming Dynasty as the lord, then it is useless for them to think about it too much.

Although Pan Yinglong and Hong Yuao don't know the specific news of Yungui, it is conceivable that with the abandonment of the Son of Heaven, the surviving generals of the Great Western Army will inevitably make the choice of whether to surrender to the Qing. After careful consideration, Pan Yinglong and Hong Yuao gave up their respective claims and decided to unite to convene the leaders of the various families in their name to come to the Yingcheng Conference, so that they could use this conference to appease and stabilize the people's minds and reach a unified opinion on whether to support the Tang Dynasty and the prison state.

In other words, if the leaders who supported the Tang Dynasty were in the majority, then Pan Yinglong and Hong Yuao responded to Zhou Shixiang's call, one as the eunuch of the Yongli Inner Court and the loyal battalion supervisor, and the other as the minister of the Sichuan Chu Ministry of the Yongli Dynasty.

But as a result, if the leaders of each family opposed the Tang Wang's Jianguo, then Pan and Hong would naturally not be able to respond to Zhou Shixiang's call, and they would still serve the Yongli Emperor who had fled into Burma as Zhengshuo, and the remnants of the Shun army and the Loess Kou who chose to oppose the Tang Wangjianguo were the biggest dependents of these two. Unless Zhou Shixiang ignored the current enemy and insisted on fighting for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, Hubei and Central Sichuan would never regard the Tang King as the new master.

With this idea in mind, after Pan Yinglong and Hong Yuao came to the front hall, Hong Yuao went straight to the point and asked the leaders of the families: "Tang Wang is in charge of the country, but I don't know what you think?" ”

When the leaders of the families heard this, they immediately whispered, but at this time, they heard Ta Tianbao shouting at Hao Shaoqi on the side: "The emperor has changed several times, and this prison country has also had several stubbles, Lao Hao, how many people do you say are going to be imprisoned?" The king of Han in your hand is also a prince, and he can be the king of Tang as a prisoner, why can't this king of Han be a prisoner? Or do the brothers also serve King Han as a prisoner? In the future, King Han will be the Son of Heaven, and we will also get one from Long Zhixun to do it. ”

As soon as he said this, Pan Yinglong and Hong Yuao suddenly changed color, Li Laiheng, Yuan Zongdi and others were also stunned, and the leaders of the Thirteen Yellow Families such as Wu Dading and Yuan Tao on the other side were also in an uproar.

As the name suggests, the superintendent of the state is to act on behalf of the emperor, and acting for the emperor has always been only an expedient measure, and it often does not take long for the superintendent to become the emperor. Counting up, since it is difficult to come to the Jiashen Kingdom, there are already four prison countries in the Ming Dynasty.

In that year, Zhu Yujian, Emperor Longwu, on the way to Pingle, heard that the Qing army had broken through Nanjing and the Hongguang Dynasty had fallen in Suzhou, so he took refuge in Jiaxing. In June, Emperor Longwu went to Hangzhou, met Zhu Changshu, the king of Lu, and asked him to supervise the country, but did not listen; Please Chen Fanglu, no. At that time, Zheng Hongkui, the chief military officer of Zhenjiang, and Su Guansheng, Hubu Lang, went to Hangzhou to talk about the national disaster with Emperor Longwu, and wept. Subsequently, Zheng Hongkui escorted Emperor Longwu to Fujian.

Zhu Changshu, the king of Lu, finally called the "prison country" in Hangzhou under the recommendation of everyone, when the Qing army arrived, he was pinned on high hopes, but Zhu Changshu, who was known as the virtuous king, surrendered to the Qing army without making any resistance. Wenlu Wang Changshu surrendered to the Qing Dynasty in Hangzhou, so Nan Anbo Zheng Zhilong, the governor of the capital Yushi Zhang Kentang and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Huang Daozhou and others discussed Zhu Yujian as the prison state. In June, Zhu Yujian was appointed as a prisoner in Jianning, Fujian. At the same time, Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu, was in Shaoxing, Zhejiang.

After Emperor Longwu was captured and killed by the Qing army in Tingzhou, Fujian, the governor of Guangxi, Qu Shiqi and others supported the Yongli Emperor Zhu Youlang to supervise the country in Zhaoqing, but Guangdong supported the forty-one-year-old Tang King Zhu Yulu to succeed him as emperor according to the principle of brother to brother, which led to the Tang and Gui rivalries, which made the already stormy Ming Dynasty even worse, and finally let the Qing army in the south pick up a big bargain.

The four eunuchs, Emperor Longwu and Emperor Yongli all ascended the throne in less than a month after the title of prisoner, Zhu Changfang, the king of Lu, descended to the Qing Dynasty, and Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu, went to the prison country after Emperor Longwu ascended the throne, and then avoided Jinxia after the failure of the anti-Qing Dynasty to be sheltered by the Zheng family.

Now that Yongli has abandoned the country, the Guangdong Taiping Army wants to support the Tang Dynasty and the country, and if it is really done, it will be the fifth prison country, and it will be the new son of heaven without accident. And Ta Tianbao, a rough goods, is shouting that he wants to serve the king of Han and supervise the country, if there is also a Tang and Han fight, then this Ming will be over.

Hong Yuao's face changed rapidly, and he stared at Hao Shaoqi, who was given the name Hao Yongzhong by Emperor Longwu, he knew that there were three vassal kings in Hao Shaoqi's camp, one was Zhu Shenglang, the king of Dong'an, the second was Zhu Yunyu, the king of Tongshan, and the third was Zhu Jingli, the king of Han. The king of Dong'an and the king of Tongshan are both two-character kings, and the genealogy is far away, so it is impossible to have the qualifications to be called the prison country. The Zhu Jingli clan and the imperial line are actually far away, and he is the ninth grandson of Zhu Song, the son of Taizu, Han Xianwang. When the anti-Qing movement in Shanxi was surging in the fifth year of Yongli, he was elected as the "King of Han" by Yu Yin and Han Zhaoxuan as a call for the restoration of vision. After the defeat of Shanxi, Zhu Jingli fled to Henan and other places.

Although Zhu Jingli was not a hereditary close branch of the Han Domain, the Yongli Imperial Court recognized his title of King of Han out of strategic considerations when the clan withered and the genealogy was disordered. This King of Han is not an incompetent vassal king, he has been secretly contacting anti-Qing people in various places, and he has been secretly sneaking into Hao Yongzhong's camp from Luoyang, Henan Province for half a year. Hao Shaoqi was very respectful of this one-word prince who came to vote, and after getting out of trouble from Kuidong, this King Han also went to Chengtian Mansion.

Li Laiheng and Liu Tichun didn't know that Ta Tianbao, who supported Han Wang Jianguo, said that it was a temporary idea of this rough goods, or if they were instructed by Hao Shaoqi, their faces changed one by one, and they were silent.

When everyone was silent, Dang Shousu laughed and said, "Hao Shaoqi, what do you mean, do you also want to support a prince and supervise the country?" (To be continued.) )
