On the first day of the first month of the forty-first year of the Ming Yongli calendar, when the sky was still bright, the small square in front of the Yinluan Palace in Anping City was already lined up with hundreds of civil and military officials of the Ming and Zheng regimes, and this was the first time that Zheng Kezhang had held a grand court ceremony since he succeeded to the throne, so everyone was extra cautious, and the officials of the Ritual Department who maintained order even guided before and after for fear that something would go wrong at that time. (The first text is published in the reading room biquge.info)

In the middle of the day, the Department of Etiquette began to roll out names, and those who did not ask for leave and did not come, and those who were late would all be transferred to the court for trial, not to mention that the examination results of the year were bound to be poor, and they would also become an indelible stain on the resumes of these officials in the future, and it would be even more difficult to get promoted smoothly.

Although the current highest official rank of the Ming and Zheng regimes is only the third rank of civil officials and the second rank of military attachés, there are 19 divisions of the Political Affairs Hall, two divisions of the Military Academy, plus the middle and senior military attaches of the two divisions in Dongning, and there are hundreds of them, and it took nearly half an hour to name them in turn.

After the roll call of the hundred officials was completed, a group of officials entered the hall in turn under the leadership of the Ritual Division, but due to the large number of participants, the content of the Yinluan Hall could not be accommodated, so the civil and military forces under the deputy division and the deputy commander could only be arranged outside the hall along the Dan Sakai. Waiting for the musicians on the platform outside the hall to stand in the palace (note: outside the hall) began to play "Zhonghe Shao Music" in unison.

"Zhonghe Shao Music" is the royal music used for sacrifices, court meetings and banquets in the Ming Dynasty. Historically, since the Zhou Dynasty, China has had court music known as the "Great Music of the Six Dynasties", which is Yale. Yale and Yilu Lu, Wen with five tones, eight tones, jade vibranium sound, fusion of ceremony, music, song, dance as a whole, in order to express the praise and reverence of the gods. From the pre-Qin to the Song and Yuan dynasties, Yale continued to be continued through the dynasties, and at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Yale was reorganized and named "Zhonghe Shaole". Of course, according to the etiquette system, only Zheng Kezang, who has the title of duke, is beyond the system to use this set of royal music, but now the "Ming" of "Ming Zheng" is just a signboard to the outside world, and "Zheng" is the supreme lord of Dongning.

In the sound of magnificent music, 64 dancers dressed as scribes and samurai in the square in front of the hall danced solemnly. In the end of Shao Yue, Zheng Kezhang strolled up the steps and sat on the throne under the gaze of everyone, at this time, the civil officials under the leadership of Hong Lei and the military attache under the leadership of Wu Shu knelt and bowed six times with the slogan of the Ritual Division, and the mountain called Chitose.

Waiting for the hundred officials to kneel and get up, Zheng Kezhang said with a smile: "From the New Year to the New Year, celebrate with Qing!" ”

So Hong Lei and Wu Shu took the lead, and a group of civil and military officers knelt down and bowed again to thank Zheng Kezhang for his reward, and then the priest in the hall dragged a long tail and shouted: "Chao He Bi, hundreds of bureaucrats return to class." ”

The civil and military returned to their original positions, and the priest knelt down to ask Zheng Kezhang to worship the ancestors and ancestors, and Zheng Kezhang went down the steps to sit on the hall and led the ministers to the ancestral temple in the east of the Yinluan Palace to worship, and when he returned to the Yinluan Palace, the whole ceremony was over

The sound of crackling firecrackers has fallen silent, and the cold moonlight is also blocked by dark clouds.

"Hall Master Yue." The black-clothed man at the head asked, leading the way. "How many ships are there here?"

"There are a total of 33 large ships with more than 1,000 materials, and 49 small ships with 600 to 900 materials." According to Yuecheng's figures, these ships could carry nearly 7,000 Qing troops south to Qiongzhou at one time. "There are two battalions guarding these ships, and there are 700 Qing soldiers, but don't worry, they have all eaten the food and drinks, and they are now sleeping."

"That's good, brothers." More than a dozen men spilled barrels of tung oil, varnish and more flammable vegetable oil everywhere, even a few warehouses on the shore, but when the fire was about to be lit, the man in black seemed to remember something. "Hall Master Yue, will it be found on your head because of this?"

"It's fine." Yue Cheng comforted them, and suddenly drew his sword and slashed a few people, and just as the others were stunned, Yue Cheng suddenly shouted. "There are thieves, come quickly!"

The man in black suddenly understood, drew his sword and was about to resist, when suddenly several rows of dense bows and arrows shot over, so one by one he withered on the ground, and when he was dying, he still scolded himself: "Traitor, traitor, you must not die well." ”

"Brother, you go first." Yue Cheng smiled bitterly and mended the sword to the other party one by one, so as not to fall into the hands of others, and when he finished this qiē, several higher-ranking Qing army generals appeared in front of him with escorts. "Adults, the little ones are fortunate to have fulfilled their mission and led out this gang of rebels."

"Well done." The lieutenant general at the head praised Yue Cheng and then ordered. "Come on, set fire!" Since the man in black had already done his work, the fire quickly ignited. "Mingjin alarm!"

The adjutant general on the edge of the fire hurriedly ordered, and the sleeping Qing army was finally woken up, but the raging fire was irreparable: "Bastard, what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and put out the fire!" ”

"With this fire, adults have to suffer some grievances." After the lieutenant general's hoarse performance, Yue Cheng showed a concerned expression as he handed over the handkerchief. "In case Lord Tai and Lord General don't give a chance to tell the difference," Yue Cheng paused. "Isn't stealing chickens a handful of rice?"

"So, Lao Yue, you are only a registered capital when you are old." The lieutenant took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat oozing from his forehead, while pointing to the fire with his hand. "They swallowed these dozens of boats and hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, if they didn't help outside, would they still expect Lao Tzu to resist alone? Besides, the Admiral didn't want to fight the ship against the sea in the first place, and he didn't secretly applaud when he learned that the ship was destroyed? The deputy general patted Yue Cheng's shoulder affectionately. You are optimistic, with the help of those people in the military gate and the shipyard, Lao Tzu will be demoted a few levels at most this time, and he will be able to reinstate the official in a blink of an eye, maybe the promotion of the general soldier is also a matter of the future, and when Lao Tzu becomes the chief soldier, Lao Yue, your capital should also be in charge. ”

"Thank you, sir." Yue Cheng immediately gave the other party a thousand, and at the same time showed a strange smile on his face, yes, the quality of these dozens of ships that cut corners in order to dare to build is indeed not very good, but it is good to send one or two waves of Qing troops to land on Qiong Island, but there is no problem, and now a fire has been burned, Li Shizhen's opportunity to attack Qiong after the year has naturally become a bubble, as for the relationship with this deputy general with a great background and taking advantage of the situation to get a real job is an unexpected joy, for this to pay a few lives in this troubled times What is it, but also to make a name, Let yourself hide deeper in the Qing army. "Please rest assured, the little ones will do things steadily." Yue Cheng said meaningfully. "No third person will ever know the truth."

"Good." The lieutenant general smiled with satisfaction. "One qiē has me, why don't you do it??"

"Bastard thing!" Li Shizhen, who had read the report of the sailor, shouted angrily. "Hundreds of people guarding a berth have been sneaked in by the dead soldiers of the sea, how did the Marquis manage the army." Li Shizhen, who knew that Emperor Kangxi was bound to be furious, immediately ordered. "Check, this official just doesn't believe it, if there is no internal and external collusion, how can he let the sea rebel die sneak in."

"Lord Li, it is certainly a big deal to investigate the collusion between the army and the sea rebellion, but it?" On the side, the new Guangzhou general Bai Yin Dali asked Li Shizhen with an ugly face. "But the ship was destroyed, so what about the original plan to go south to recover Qiongzhou?"

"Let them work day and night in the shipyards, and make sure to make up for the lost ships as much as possible." But this is only a means to make amends, even if it is day and night, it will take a few months or half a year to build such ships, so the plan to go south after the year has been completely ruined. "As for the original strategy?" Li Shizhen sighed. "I had to make arrangements after the wind season. But," Li Shizhen said through gritted teeth. "The water division has continued to cheat, but it is not good for the marquis, and the general and the subordinate officials are asked to report to the court together and remove the marquis!"

"It's not necessarily appropriate to change generals before the battle." Baiyindari shook his head. "Lord Hou has been training the sailors in Guangdong for more than a year, and he has experience in sea strategy, if he is removed at this time, where will the imperial court transfer the water division to fight in the future?" This is also true, after all, only the three provinces now have water divisions, and most of them are land generals who have temporarily changed careers, and the Marquis is already the eldest son of the short, how can there be a substitute. "This official thinks that it is better for the lord to be open and honest with Lord Hou and persuade him to rectify the sailor well, so that is the best policy."

"But at this time, let the emperor know that he will be angry." Li Shizhen has already said it very bluntly. "How can I explain?"

"Lord Hou is training in Jieshi, and he can't reach Leizhou." Bayindar pointed to one of the names on the submission. "This person bears full responsibility for supervision, and the crime is unforgivable, and he should be arrested first, so as to correct the discipline of the imperial court."

"Then do as the general wants," Li Shizhen finally agreed to catch the small enlarged Jianyi, but what he didn't expect, he couldn't even deal with a deputy general, and soon all kinds of requests for generals came one after another, so that in the end he could only take a guerrilla attack to get angry, and as for Yue Cheng, who was not on the duty list, no one would associate it with this fire. "I know everything about it."

Bai Yin Dali was satisfied with the result he wanted, so he turned to another matter: "Lord Li, I heard the rumors of the provincial feudal department that Guangdong is going to increase the sea salary and add silver per mu, but is there such a thing?" ”

"Your Excellency General," Li Shizhen showed a hint of embarrassment on his face. "In the imperial court system, the lower officials are now in charge of the military affairs of the two Guangzhous, and this civil affairs are not easy to get involved in, so the feudal division has some actions, and the lower officials can only hear about it."

Li Shizhen is right, it is about the court system of the big and small, Bai Yin Dali obviously asked Yu Blind: "Since this is the case, then this matter will be directly written by the Domain."

The two talked for a while, Bai Yin Dali got up to say goodbye, Li Shizhen personally sent him out of the governor's yamen, but both of them seemed to consciously forget that the Portuguese were still waiting to cooperate with the Qing army to go south, maybe in the eyes of the two, the Portuguese who sought wealth were just clowns like jumping beams, but no one realized how much trouble Guangdong Province would bring in the future!
