In the Qianqing Palace and Emperor Chongzhen's earnest conversation for a night, Zhu Daolin still refused to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors in the face of repeated persuasion from the three old eunuchs who had gone through the five dynasties and the Zongren Order of the internal supervisors, saying that he had never heard of such a thing, and asked his parents to inquire in detail before making a decision.

In desperation, Emperor Chongzhen had no choice but to temporarily give up the title of Prince Zhu Daolin's father and son, and only awarded Zhu Daolin the title of Earl of Zhenhai, so that he could better serve the country, but asked Zhu Daolin to bring his parents back to the Ming Dynasty and recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.

Zhu Daolin hesitated again and again, and finally agreed to the request of Emperor Chongzhen and Zongren Ling, and decided to take his parents from the overseas Tianshu Pavilion before the end of the year, but he asked the emperor to agree: if his parents are not willing to stay in Daming, I hope that the emperor will allow his parents to return to live in the overseas Tianshu Pavilion, otherwise it will be difficult for him to obey!

After listening to the statements of the subordinate officials of the Zongren Mansion, the eight most prominent and noble nobles in the capital were full of emotion for a while, and they admired Zhu Daolin's style and bones, and finally understood that the reason why Zhu Daolin gave the emperor a huge amount of silver and copper was not the so-called capital to buy officials and enter the knighthood speculated by the civil officials, but out of the love and sorrow for the Ming Dynasty, and from the vague flesh and blood affection that was indescribable and unclear in the blood.

Within a few days, the news of Zhu Daolin's arrival after the king of Qi quickly spread among the dignitaries in the capital.

Some people were horrified, others were full of suspicion, some were overjoyed, some were terrified, but many more people were expectant.

As the news spread more and more widely, more and more people of the Ming Dynasty learned of this shocking news, so "General Zhu Daolin, the commander of the Dongjiang New Army who defeated the Tartars and won a great victory in Liaodong, is the descendant of Queen Qi" The rumor was like having wings, and quickly flew in all directions, and even Huang Taiji, who was far away in the ice and snow of Shenyang, was shocked.

And Zhu Daolin, who has been praised by everyone, doesn't seem to know about it. At this time, he had returned to the Hushan compound in the northern suburbs of Jinling, and after holding a secret meeting with a group of henchmen, he was holding his beloved son full of milk, and celebrating the Spring Festival with a group of jubilant wives and concubines and brothers who had gathered.

……

……

Zhu Daolin didn't know that his title as a "descendant of King Qi" was completely the result of the secret instigation of Wu Jingxian, the eunuch guarding Nanjing Town, and his master, Daoist Xuanqing.

I don't know what happened to me. His grandfather, who has long passed away, and now his father's tuba coincides with the seventh generation of the Qi Wang genealogy "real" and the eighth generation of the "Kan" generation, and he did change his name before school, from Zhu Zongsheng to Zhu Daolin, which is actually the ninth generation of the Qi Wang family tree.

As a result, after repeated verification and long-term weighing, Emperor Chongzhen, a lonely man, recognized him, the "Zhu family bloodline" who was rich in the world and full of literature and martial arts, and gave him the name of "Zhu Yangji" in his infancy.

And this "raising" generation is the special name of the tenth generation of descendants in the line of King Qi, and this generation is not formulated by the first generation of King Qi or Zongrenfu. It was written by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Zhu dynasty.

Zhu Daolin, who returned to Jinling's home to share the joy of family with his wife and children, after pondering repeatedly, finally remembered that only his master Xuanqing Daochang and cheap uncle Wu Jingxian had inquired about their family history in detail, and knew the names of their grandfather and father, and he was indeed called Zhu Zongsheng when he was a child, but he was changed to Zhu Daolin before entering school. However, this is not my grandfather's deathbed will, and there is no such pathos as the legend. But after her mother, who believed in Taoism, first understood Yili, she felt that the name Zhu Zongsheng was related to the five elements. It doesn't match well, so it was changed to Zhu Daolin, who is quite literate.

I don't know if this is the result of my mother's admiration for the famous actor Sun Daolin when she was young, but I didn't expect that in this way, I would accidentally match the genealogy of the Qi dynasty of the Zhu dynasty.

In fact, whether it is the queen of Qi or not is of little practical significance to Zhu Daolin today. He didn't have the slightest good impression of the Zhu dynasty in his bones, even if he was really the bloodline of the Zhu dynasty, it would not affect his strong determination and confidence in victory to overthrow this incompetent and immoral court that dragged down the entire nation.

And Zhu Daolin doesn't think that the so-called "Zhu family bloodline" will bring much benefit to himself, maybe it will bring more negative effects.

From the three emperors and five emperors of Xia, Shang and Zhou to the present, the male lord who can change the dynasty and replace him in history. Who wants to bear the shadow of so-and-so predecessors?

Even Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of this dynasty, has not attached any caste to any celebrity!

However, this matter has an extremely important impact on Emperor Chongzhen and Wu Jingxian, the eunuch of Nanjing, Xuanqing Daochang, the abbot of Ziyangguan of the Shangqing Sect, and even the ancestral court of Laoshan.

Everyone will have their own selfishness and extremely complicated calculations, but no matter how they are calculated, Zhu Daolin only recognizes one point, that is, his rapid rise has not only affected the historical process, but also affected the future fate of countless people and even the entire Ming Dynasty, maybe Emperor Chongzhen will not need to hang himself on the coal mountain in the end.

It is estimated that it is precisely because of this that Wu Jingxian and Xuanqing Daochang exhausted their minds and speculated in every way, and finally prompted Emperor Chongzhen, who was desperate in the West Mountain, to pinch his nose and recognize Zhu Daolin, the same sect.

After Zhu Daolin thought about it repeatedly, he decided that everything would go naturally, no longer entangled, and after spending half a month with his wife and children and friends, and after several secret talks with the master, uncle and others who were promoted to Ziyang Zhenren, he generously entrusted Wu Jingxian, who was very pleased, to send 2 million taels of silver and 2 million catties of copper to the capital at one time, and then frequently traveled back and forth to the mansions of Wei Guogong and Longping Hou and other nobles, constantly inspecting the military camp and the major enterprises under his command, and devoting all his energy to the intense preparation work.

The day after Zhu Daolin returned to the overseas Tianshu Pavilion on the pretext of "consulting his parents", 2,000 Korean war horses transported by five special bulk ships of the Four Seas Commercial Company were sent to the port of Quanzhou in Fujian.

Overjoyed, the Zheng family immediately rushed to Tamsui Port with the ship, deposited a deposit of 3 million taels of silver into the Tamsui Bank of the Four Seas, and formally met with Wang Zhaohuan, the first prefect of Yingzhou, and Wei Yuying, the first governor appointed by the emperor himself.

Almost at the same time, in his capacity as the plenipotentiary representative of Count Zhu Daolin, the governor of coastal defense of the Ming Empire, he secretly arrived in Batavia on an inconspicuous ocean-going cargo ship, where he met with the Dutch colonial governor and the directors of the Dutch East India Company to negotiate the disposition of the more than 3,000 prisoners captured in the battle of Geranza, the division of the sphere of interests between the two sides, and the possible in-depth exchanges and cooperation.
