As soon as the news of Liu Zhiyuan's head hanging on the head of the city spread.

There was a thunderstorm, and thousands of people shouted long live, and they brushed and bowed in the direction of the Hangzhou Mansion.

The people in Hangzhou who were persecuted by him, their families were ruined, and their wives were separated when they heard this, they all gritted their teeth and ran to the city gate to see Liu Zhiyuan's dog head.

Some bitter and vengeful people who had been brutalized by Liu Zhiyuan even ran to the execution table to buy Liu Zhiyuan's meat from the executioner and feed it to the dogs to eat at home, so as to dissipate the anger in their hearts.

With Liu Zhiyuan's head, Zheng Chenggong quickly regained the hearts of the people of Hangzhou.

Under the handling of Wang Zhongxiao, Gu Chaojian, and Feng Chengshi, the people whose houses were damaged were compensated and had temporary shelters.

The city of Hangzhou soon regained its former prosperity.

The soldiers and horses sent to capture the counties and townships of Hangzhou also quickly returned the good news.

Hearing that the city of Hangzhou was captured, Liu Zhiyuan was killed by Zheng Chenggong.

Tonglu, Lin'an, Fuyang, Yuhang and other townships and counties saw that Zheng's army had been killed, and the defenders in the city had been transferred by Liu Zhiyuan before, and there were no soldiers to defend at all.

Then they all surrendered, Zheng Chenggong liked it greatly, and rewarded these county orders heavily, so that his official residence was in his original position.

Zheng Chenggong seized most of Zhejiang, and the prestige was great, and the four prefectures of Huzhou, Jiaxing, Ningbo, and Shaoxing did not need Zheng Chenggong to send troops at all, and the four prefects took the initiative to send people to express their surrender.

Since then, Zhejiang Province has recovered the whole line, Zheng Chenggong has settled the people, and the three armies have been rewarded.

Gan Hui was promoted to the general of Fengguo from the second rank, and was rewarded with 5,000 silver.

He Wenxing was promoted to General Zhaoyi, who was the third grade, and was rewarded with 3,000 silver.

Huang Ting was promoted to the general of Dingyuan from the third grade, and the reward was 3,000 silver.

Yang Cai was promoted to General Huaiyuan from Sanpin, and was rewarded with 2,000 silver.

Wan Li was promoted to General Anyuan from Sanpin, and was rewarded with 2,000 silver.

……

Zheng Chenggong was rewarding the three armies, and after Chen Yonghua persuaded Zhang Huangyan to send troops to respond, he did not return to Hangzhou, but directly took a boat to Zhoushan to meet Zhang Mingzhen.

Zhang Mingzhen, the word Hou Fu, was a native of Jiangning County, Tianfu in the south of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhang Mingzhen was upright and bold when he was young, quite strategic, and ambitious.

In his early years, when he traveled to Beijing, Cao Huachun, the eunuch of Dongchang, was introduced as a guest and had a close relationship with the Donglin Party. At the end of Chongzhen, he served as a guerrilla in Shipu, Taizhou, as a deputy general.

In the summer of the first year of Hongguang (1645), Nanjing and Hangzhou were lost one after another, and Qian Sule and others raised troops to support King Lu and supervise the country in Shaoxing, and Zhang Mingzhen led troops to express their support.

In Zhangfuzhong in Zhoushan City, Chen Yonghua and Zhang Mingzhen sat opposite each other.

Zhang Mingzhen raised his head and said, "What did Zheng Mingyan send you for?" ”

Chen Yonghua looked at Zhang Mingzhen and said: "Zhejiang has been recovered by the general, if nothing else, Nanzhili should also be in the pocket of my general." As soon as Jiangsu and Zhejiang return to obedience, may I ask General Zhang, where should Lu Jianguo be placed? ”

When Zhang Mingzhen heard this, he said angrily: "Could it be that Zheng Mingyan still dares to send troops to kill the king?" ”

Chen Yonghua smiled and said, "General Zhang's words are wrong! Who is the king? Since the tragic death of Emperor Longwu, the general of our family has declared that the world respects Yongli. The people of the world know something, why should Lord Zhang deceive himself. The ancients said: There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the country. Now Yongli is the benevolent grandson of Emperor Shenzong, smart and benevolent, frugal and quiet, loved by his subjects, respected and virtuous, and all admired the will of heaven, which is the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty. The reunification has been decided, who dares to fight again? If Lu Jianguo does not know good and evil, he will covet the position of great treasure. My general had no choice but to send troops to exterminate the Zheng Dynasty! ”

Zhang Mingzhen and Zhang Huangyan are different!

Zhang Huangyan is a literati, and Chen Yonghua can be persuaded by righteousness.

Zhang Mingzhen is a general, and he pays attention to reality.

Chen Yonghua did not say such nihilistic words as righteousness, and directly used force to pressure the other party to surrender.

Zhang Mingzhen glared at Chen Yonghua angrily when he heard it, and the sword in his hand was clutched, but he never dared to pull it out and kill him.

Zhang Mingzhen knew that if Zheng Chenggong didn't write the book, he would directly send troops to kill Lu Jianguo.

Yongli will blame a few words at most, but secretly he will reward Zheng Chenggong.

Zhang Mingzhen sat down weakly, bowing his head and being silent.

Chen Yonghua continued: "I also asked General Zhang to think about the overall situation and persuade Lu Jianguo to give up the name of Jianguo and abdicate and return to the domain. Wouldn't it be nice to be so knighted, and there is no shortage of bicycle riding! ”

Zhang Mingzhen took a deep breath and said, "I can go and persuade King Lu to give up the name of the prison country." But Yongli must issue a decree to pardon all the faults of King Lu, and he must not be held accountable again! ”

Chen Yonghua thought for a while and said: "King Lu must first send a letter to the emperor to express his intentions. In this way, the general of my family can write a book to liberate King Lu. ”

Zhang Mingzhen said expressionlessly: "But! ”

Chen Yonghua smiled happily: "Thank you General Zhang for understanding the righteousness, from now on, you and I will be ministers in the same palace, congratulations!" ”

When Zhang Mingzhen heard this, the anger that had been suppressed broke out, and he scolded angrily: "Bah, the old man is ashamed to be a minister in the same palace with you." persuaded Queen Lu, and the old man returned to seclusion. Master Chen, don't think that Zheng Mingyan's little mind is not clear to others. That is, Yongli will be deceived by Zheng Mingyan. It's hateful that people in the world are dull-eyed and don't know the true king. The three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty were not buried in the hands of barbaric difficulties, but in the hands of Zheng Mingyan......"

Zhang Mingzhen was so emotional that he sprayed saliva on Chen Yonghua's face.

Chen Yonghua kept smiling, still scolding.

Zhang Mingzhen scolded for a while, and when he saw that Chen Yonghua still had the same attitude, he felt bored, waved his sleeves and walked straight into the inner courtyard, no longer caring about Chen Yonghua.

Chen Yonghua wiped the saliva on his face with his sleeve at this time, and lowered his head to think.

What the general has done in recent years has fallen into the eyes of people with a heart.

Now is not the time for a showdown with Yongli, it is time to persuade the general to find a way to eliminate Yongli's concerns.

Three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty!

Hehehe, what does it have to do with me.

My food and clothing are all given by the general, and the general is my food and clothing parents, so I am naturally loyal to the general!

After Chen Yonghua finished thinking about it, he called a subordinate and took him to the side room to rest.

Zhang Mingzhen walked into the inner hall, thought about it for a long time, and finally made up his mind to go to King Lu's mansion.

Zhang Mingzhen and King Lu talked for an afternoon, but King Lu was unwilling and refused to agree.

The next day, Zhang Huangyan returned to Zhoushan with Wang Yi and others.

As soon as they returned, they jointly wrote to King Lu, imploring him to give up the name of the prison state.

At this time, Lu Jianguo finally recognized the reality.

In July 1651, Lu Jianguo sent an envoy Zhang Huangyan to accompany Chen Yonghua to meet Zheng Chenggong.

When Zhang Huangyan saw Zheng Chenggong, he expressed the meaning of King Lu: I have heard for a long time that Hangzhou Diqiao has become a city, singing and dancing, horse cruises, flowers are full of Su Causeway and willows are full of smoke, and it is the most good place to live, King Lu wants to spend his old age in Hangzhou, and hopes that Zheng Chenggong will help him find a good place to live!

Zheng Chenggong was overjoyed when he heard that Lu Jianguo was going to give up the name of Jianguo. (To be continued.) )
