Chapter Forty-Seven: Cao's Injury-free Farewell

After hearing the news of the fall of Beijing, Yixing Emperor Zhu Cihong finally inherited the throne in Nanjing, continuing the Ming Dynasty's national ancestry, for several days, Jinling Nanjing has always been in a burst of laughter, but also made the people, including many courtiers, gentry have a delusion, the days will continue, the Ming Dynasty is still continuing, which is no different from the previous life. On the banks of the Qinhuai River and in front of the Confucius Temple, it is still a prosperous hustle and bustle.

Emperor Zhu Cihong of Yixing rewarded his ministers, and the elders of the cabinet also settled. Zheng Sanjunrong, who came from Beijing, served as the first assistant, and the rest of the cabinet members were Huang Daozhou, Fang Yuegong, Ruan Dacheng, Qian Qianyi, and Zhao Zhilong. Although Zhu Cihong's henchmen Li Shichun, Yao Minggong, Wu Weiye and others did not enter the cabinet, they controlled the officials of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War.

Both the government and the opposition know very well that the so-called first cabinet is nothing but a product of balancing the forces of all parties.

Zheng Sanjun is highly respected and has a straight name, and the first assistant is excellent | excellent | small | said more | new | the most | fast | WWW.UUXS.CC | Huang Daozhou is "strict and cold, and does not follow customs", which belongs to the outliers in the cabinet, and with him, the ministers have many scruples; Fang Yuegong belongs to Zhu Cihong's people who are of great use, but his qualifications and age are not enough to serve as the first assistant, with Zheng Sanjun as the first assistant to escort, the next first assistant must be him; Qian Qianyi belonged to the Donglin Party, and although the Donglin Party lost to Ma Shiying and others in the battle for support, it had a huge influence in Jiangnan; Zhao Zhilong belongs to the grass on the wall, although he strongly supported King Fu's accession to the throne at the beginning, but after learning about the prince's southward journey, he was the first to jump out and express his support for the prince's accession to the throne, and he had the merit of supporting it.

Ruan Dacheng's entry into the cabinet was a big surprise to many people. This person had a very bad reputation among Shilin, and he was attached to Donglin in his early years, and then took refuge in Wei Zhongxian, and killed the Donglin Party and the Fushe. After Chongzhen ascended the throne, he relegated it to Jiangnan. But this guy is indeed a small strong man who can't be beaten, because he organized a group training to fight against the rogue, and once again entered the Nanjing court. When Ma Shiying supported King Lifu, Ruan Dacheng was a pawn of the horse, and this time he was also on the list of those who were hunted down and imprisoned, but Zhu Cihong valued his shamelessness. deliberately promoted him to the cabinet, but also intended to raise a scruples in the cabinet.

And Zhu Ping'an, who originally had the merit of being the king of diligence and even the merit of escorting the prince south, was in the limelight for a while, but suddenly fell silent. The turmoil about him being the eldest son of Tang King Zhu Yujian gradually subsided, and then, the government and the opposition were deeply interested in Zhu Cihong's attitude towards this first hero of the Yixing Dynasty.

It stands to reason that Zhu Ping'an is the son of a vassal king, so he should naturally return to the fiefdom and enjoy the life of being in captivity. But the problem now is that Zhu Ping'an has been running Shandong for many years, and he holds the leading power of the Dengzhou Free Trade Zone. The ground in Shandong was full of his subordinates, and Huaiyang and his teacher Lu Zhenfei were in charge. As long as you have a little brain, you know how jealous the current Yixing Emperor Zhu Cihong is of this uncle's general soldier.

is reflected in one point, that is, Zhu Ping'an's current name is still called Zhu Ping'an. Because according to the ancestral system. The name of the Ming royal family has extremely strict requirements. "In Hongwu, Ming Taizu has many descendants. The naming is considered to be repeated, it is in the East Palace, the prince's lineage, each intended two crosses, and the word is one. The descendants are born, and the Zongren Mansion is set up with two names according to the world, and the above word is the basis. The next word is taken from the side of the five elements, with fire, earth, metal, water, and wood as the order, but the king of Jingjiang is not restricted. ”

According to Zhu Yuanzhang's request, the order of the naming of the Tang Dynasty is "Qiongzhi Mi Universe, Shuoqi Yu Linju." Qi Ling Meng Song Body, Jiali Association Inscription".

Therefore, Zhu Ping'an's name should be "Zhu Lin", followed by a combination of five elements of water on the side. For example, the name of Zeng's son-in-law born to Zhu Yujian is "Zhu Linyuan".

But now, Emperor Chongzhen has decreed that Zhu Ping'an will be included in the clan, but Emperor Yixing does not seem to have the intention of ordering Zhu Ping'an to change his name, "if the name is not right, the words are not good", in this way, is Zhu Ping'an still a real royal family? This is very intriguing.

After Emperor Yixing ascended the throne, his attitude towards Zhu Yujian and Zhu Ping'an's father and son was even more suspicious. Zhu Ping'an was put aside, but Emperor Yixing rewarded the Tang King Zhu Yujian's family with all his might.

Originally, in Chongzhen's edict, Fuzhou was used as Zhu Yujian's fief. However, Zhu Cihong actually changed Zhu Yujian's fief to Xiaofeng in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, on the grounds that "the prince of Tang is loyal to the country and dedicated to the king's affairs, and has suffered setbacks for many years, and I really can't bear to see him from a distance from Beijing", he actually changed Zhu Yujian's fief to Xiaofeng in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, which is close to Nanzhili, and rewarded him greatly. He also deliberately retained the Tang Wang's family to live in Nanjing for a period of time, so that they could share the joy of family.

Compared with the flowery clusters of Zhu Yujian, Sun Chuanting, Zuo Liangyu and others, Zhu Ping'an gradually withdrew from the sight of the Nanjing government and the opposition.

After arriving in Nanjing, Zhu Ping'an's army lived in Dashengguan, while he and his subordinates lived in a property in Fengxiantang in Taipingli. Since participating in the enthronement ceremony, Zhu Ping'an has been hiding in the house, and all banquets and visits have been politely refused on the grounds of physical discomfort. These days, Zhu Ping'an has been hiding in his study, carefully studying some of the manuscripts, letters and Fengxiantang's industrial inventory in various places left by Wang Chengen.

I have to say that Shen Xiao and Shen Qinghe left a large part of the family business back then, and after Wang Chengen took over, in order to conceal his strength, he shrunk the industry, but it is also jaw-dropping now. Now, Beizhili, Hebei, Shanxi, and Henan are already devastated, and Fengxiantang's industry has already been transferred to Jiangnan and Shandong under Wang Chengen's deliberate management. Now, this qiΔ“ has been gradually taken over by Zhu Ping'an's TongguΓ² Military Intelligence Department.

Yin Shigang has also rushed to Nanjing. Encouraging Lu Jiude to support King Fu was only the first step in Zhu Ping'an's huge plan. In this move, Zhu Changshu, the king of Lu, who may pose a threat in the future, has been eliminated. But Fu Wang Zhu Yousong, his role is far from over.

"Lu Jiude has taken over the post of master of ceremonies and supervisors, and originally, the emperor wanted to demote him. However, Lu Jiude still has thousands of Beijing camps in Nanjing, plus our operation, so he can stay in the palace. Han Zanzhou took over the post of palm seal, and Wang Pin became the chief bingbi. ”

Yin Shigang explained to Zhu Ping'an while sipping tea. "According to the marshal's meaning, there will be chaos in Nanjing in the future, and there is no need for us to plant people in the positions of various yamen, as long as we keep the news flowing."

Zhu Ping'an nodded, threw a finished volume on the table, and stretched comfortably, "Nanjing, I don't plan to stay long, the emperor doesn't like me, I'd better go back to Shandong to be more stable." The weather is about to turn colder, and the Manchu side is estimated to complete the reorganization of forces, so we must also return to Shandong as much as possible to determine the actions of the North Korean side. ”

In this regard, Yin Shigang also agrees, as the first adviser by Zhu Ping'an's side, he knows that his intelligence is just the capital of the Chinese, compared with the handsome man around him, he is better in doing things meticulously and cautiously, conscientious, loyal and diligent, which won Zhu Ping'an's trust, so, for Zhu Ping'an's good strategy and decision-making, Yin Shigang knows very well that he is just an out-and-out executor, as long as everything is implemented in place, he is a great achievement.

"On August 22, the emperor will marry Sun Ruoxuan into the palace, and the marshal will inevitably enter the palace to celebrate, so let's wait for the emperor to leave after the wedding!"

Yin Shigang suddenly laughed, "Li Shichun gave the emperor a good idea, but he was scolded by Shilin and the courtiers, saying that he was violating the ancestral system and planting the root cause of his relatives' interference in politics, and even Sun Chuanting was scolded a lot." But it's strange that this Dingbei Bo has changed his fiery temper in the past, and he is silent! ”

Zhu Ping'an said faintly: "Sun Chuanting has been up and down several times, and it is no longer what it was back then. has been an official and commander of the army for 20 years, and he only has this opportunity to prove himself, so at this time, it is reasonable for him to swallow his anger. ”

Yin Shigang still has some concerns. Sun Ruoxuan also knew all the things that happened in Penglai, such a restless woman came to the emperor who didn't deal with Zhu Ping'an, and she didn't know how much trouble she was going to make.

Zhu Ping'an smiled lightly, "It's just a clown who jumps off the beam, what do you care about her?" ”

Yin Shigang smiled, his handsome woman has a good relationship, Sun Ruoxuan's matter comes from her feelings for Zhu Ping'an in the final analysis. But in front of him, there is another woman's matter that Zhu Ping'an needs to decide.

"Dashuai, the blind man's injury is almost healed, and I told you a few days ago that Miss Xing Yuan is indeed infatuated with Dashuai. On that day, the blind man and she didn't know that the handsome man had already made arrangements in Jiushan Town, but the Xing Yuan girl was dedicated to the handsome, and even gave up her life, such a woman is indeed rare in the world, I and the blind man both feel that the handsome ......, this, you might as well consider it! ”

Zhu Ping'an was a little stunned for a while, remembering that day at the dock of Jiushan Town, Xing Yuan stumbled to the beach, waving a red robe in his hand, and his heart couldn't help but feel warm, but Mu Yuling's mother and son flashed through Zhu Ping'an's mind in an instant, and let him quickly collect the emotion.

Traveling to the present, Zhu Ping'an still has no way to fully accept the marriage system of the Ming Dynasty, although he knows that for so many years, Xing Yuan has always had a deep affection for him. Facing such a talented and beautiful woman, and making that kind of affectionate expression to herself, Zhu Ping'an's heart was also a little confused.

While talking, the guards came to report, but it was Cao Wuxian who came to the door.

The eldest princess Zhu Yujiao and Cao Wuxian came to Nanjing with Sun Chuanting, but after arriving in Nanjing, Zhu Ping'an sent someone to contact Cao Wuxian, but Cao Wuxian never appeared, which made Zhu Ping'an a little puzzled.

Luckily, I'm back today.

But Cao Wuxian in front of him has changed.

Dressed in a red high-grade internal official service, wearing a three-mountain hat, such a dress made Zhu Ping'an, Yin Shigang, and Huaide stunned, and even Shen Ke and Wang Jinfa, who rushed to hear the news, were dumbfounded.

"No harm, you, what are you going to do here?"

Cao Wuxian smiled faintly, his fair face was a little more vicissitudes, and he knelt down in front of Zhu Ping'an, "Today, I'm here to say goodbye to the young master!" ”

After saying that, it was already a head knocked on the ground. (To be continued......)
