"Lord Zhou is saying that Mr. Taichong is still living in seclusion in Yuyao's house?" Zhou Yunlong's revelations really made Dongning's envoys' eyes light up. (The text was first published in the biquge.info of the Cabinet) "Is this news true?" The messenger asked incredulously. Didn't the Tartars keep a watch on the gentleman's residence? Lord Zhou, don't spread the rumors! ”

The envoy's rebuke made Zhou Yunlong's expression a little embarrassed, but in the final analysis, Mr. Taichong's name was too terrifying, you must know that Huang Zongxi was known as the "Three Great Confucian Sects in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties" together with Gu Yanwu and Wang Fuzhi, and together with his younger brother Huang Zongyan and Huang Zonghui, he was known as the "Three Yellows of Eastern Zhejiang", and Gu Yanwu, Fang Yizhi, Wang Fuzhi, and Zhu Shunshui were called the "Five Masters of the Late Ming and Early Qing Dynasties". It's no wonder that the envoys of Dongning repeatedly asked for confirmation after hearing about it.

But embarrassment is embarrassment, and the words still have to be answered, so Zhou Yunlong replied: "This matter is indeed correct." ”

Then Zhou Yunlong explained: "Although Mr. Taichong is now a Dumen thanksgiving, after all, he is concerned about the great cause of restoring his vision, and he still has some contacts with my brothers, not to mention anything else, a considerable part of our grain is purchased with the help of Mr. Tongguò's disciples. ”

The envoy nodded again and again, so Zhou Yunlong replied further: "Although Mr. Tartar recruited Mr. to go north in the name of erudition and Confucianism and Xiuming History, Mr. always refused, but in order to avoid the persecution of Tartar, Mr. had no choice but to let his son Huang Baijia and his disciple Vance go north on the same generation, and Mr. Partridge (Huang Zongyan), the younger brother of Mr. Partridge (Huang Zongyan), escaped in Siming Mountain. ”

"You mean, Mr. Taichong's son Huang Baijia is in Beijing?" The envoy was stunned, this matter was difficult to handle, Huang Zongxi was already over 70 years old, it was very difficult to invite him to go south by boat, and now that his descendants were detained in Beijing, it was no wonder that the Qing court did not know how to send people to monitor it. "Zhou Zhen, the matter is very high, and this official needs to report to the Lord before he can make a decision, but if you let your people land, can you rescue Mr. Taichong and Mr. Partridge."

"Although Mr. Taichong no longer lectures now, there may not be no traitors attached to the Tartars under his door, but Mr. Partridge can think of some ways, but." Zhou Yunlong threw out this matter for a purpose, but now that he has the opportunity, he is just complaining. "It's just that now that the Tartars have sealed the sea again, it is not as convenient as before to send people to land."

"This official knows that it is difficult for you to do it, but because of this, it seems that Zhou Zhen's means." The envoy has an anti-guest posture, and next week Yunlong's cold sweat came down. "Of course, this can be easier and then more difficult." Seeing Zhou Yunlong's behavior, the envoy was appeased. "As long as it is done, I think the Lord will be gracious"

"On the order of the general, I gave Yan Jiu the position of lieutenant of the second grade light car and the chief soldier of Hexian Town." Cai Tong solemnly handed the edict in his hand to Yan Jiu in front of him, and then helped him up. "Lord Yan, and Lord Chen are now officials in the same hall, and they are both flesh and blood of the Han family, so we should support each other, and there will be no disputes in the future."

Yan Jiu (Vietnamese: m?cC?u), whose original surname is "Mo", is a native of Leizhou, Guangdong, and after the death of the Ming Dynasty, he did not want to be a subject of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so he took refuge in Cangkan (note: Jianjiang, Vietnam). Legend has it that there are often immortals haunting the river, so it is also known as the river fairy, this place is located in the Mekong Delta, adjacent to Cambodia, Siam and Quang Nam, and is a place where traffic is flourishing. Yan Jiu also saw this, so he "recruited business travelers from all over the world", attracting "overseas countries and sails to contact him." Its proximity to China (referring to Vietnamese), Tang (referring to overseas Chinese), fang, barbarian, homeless people are clustered, and the household registration is dense", thus making Ha Tien a prosperous port for a while.

However, prosperity also attracted peeps, and as Cambodia, the original suzerainty of Yan Jiu, was invaded by Siam, and Yan Jiu himself was plundered to Siam, at this time Chen Shangchuan happened to be ordered to reclaim the Jiading area, so he went south to recover this area from the Siamese. Of course, since Chen Shangchuan didn't want to return to Dongning to listen to Zheng Kezang's moderation, then Ming Zheng naturally wanted to find a way to weaken his strength, so Cai Tong tried every means to send someone to pick up Yan Jiu from Siam.

Since Yan Jiu escaped from Siam safely, he naturally wanted to take back his own territory, so he had repeated conflicts with Chen Shangchuan's subordinates, and even almost met each other. At this time, Cai Tong was a good person again and persuaded Chen Shangchuan not to kill each other. Chen Shangchuan felt guilty in his heart, so he listened to Cai Tong's words and returned to the Hexian area. With such kindness, Cai Tong naturally persuaded Yan Jiuyao to accept the official position of Ming Zheng and accept the blessing of Zheng Jun.

"Please rest assured." Although Cai Tong's official position is only from the fifth grade, Yan Jiu, who knows his own family affairs, still screams one adult after another. "Xiaguan will definitely live up to the good intentions of the adults, and will definitely help Lord Chen in the future." Before Yan Jiu's beautiful words were finished, a huge exclamation was remembered at the port, and then the rumbling cannon sounded, and Yan Jiu, who was a frightened bird, was shocked, and even Chen Shangchuan, who came to watch the ceremony, had a little different color on his face. "Where?"

"Don't worry," Cai Tong reassured the two. "There is no fire, it must be a salute, and it is about the arrival of the warship of the Honda Domain's patrol of the South China Sea, greeting the two commanders." Salute? The two men looked at each other, and the group hurried up to the top to look, only to see three brigs cruising back and forth on the sea, and only one smaller one had come to shore. "But it's the patrol gunboat of the domain." Looking at the red and blue flags fluttering at the stern of the boat, Cai Tong confirmed again, and introduced to the two at the same time. "The clan has borrowed a bay from the Dragon King for mooring, and the fleet will cruise in turn every month in the future." Speaking of this, Cai Tong pretended to sigh. "It's just that the water village has just been built, and the garrison is completely empty, and Yu Lick is a national messenger, and he is worried about it." Cai Tong's eyes swept over the two of them, Chen Shangchuan and Yan Jiu's hearts trembled, and sure enough, they heard Cai Tong laugh. "It's really a blind sight to Mount Tai, and I'm still saying that Dongning doesn't have so much manpower to transfer over, but I forgot about the two lords of the town, and today the lower officials knocked on the bamboo pole, and asked the two lords to agree."

"Bamboo poles?" Chen and Yan were thinking about it, and they didn't know what Cai Tong would ask for, but in order to prevent Cai Tong from opening his mouth, Yan Jiu spoke first. "The lower officials are willing to provide the adults with a thousand stones of grain, 20 head of cattle, and 100 copper coins to fund the army."

Chen Shangchuan glared at Yan Jiu, he is not richer than Yan Jiu, who opened a casino, so wouldn't it be on the bar, just as he hesitated whether to speak, Cai Tong smiled and waved his hand: "Cattle are good things, I accepted them, but there is no need for grain and copper coins, after all, the two of them have not been established for a long time, or the foundation is damaged, and they are not rich." ”

If you don't want money, then you want more, and the two people who knew this truth were even more panicked, and at this moment they heard Cai Tong say: "In this way, the two of them are each the official of one hundred households, and it is best to be the people of the Han family, if you can't be from Guangnan, you can also be naturalized." Chen and Yan glanced at each other and nodded in unison, Cai Tong's asking price is not high, and he can agree, but Cai Tong's words are still continuing. The other two adults each sent a hundred strong men to serve as the guards of the water village, and rest assured that their Lu rice was borne by the official. ”

"Isn't a hundred strong people too much?" Chen Shangchuan said painfully. "After all, Jiading and Hexian are both related to the Three Kingdoms, and the thieves are rampant, and we have to guard them ourselves."

"Please rest assured, the two adults, this official is not going to swallow your strength." Cai Tong smiled slightly. "What this official means, these strong people are changed every three years, and the people are still yours, just serving under the rule of this domain, and it can be regarded as doing the duty of some Ming courtiers." Speaking of which, what else do the two of them not understand, this is the signing of Ding Suwei, in order to detain the identities of the two Ming subordinates. "Of course, this official can't let you out of these mouths in vain, like this," If the gunboat that appeared just now is a big stick, then now Cai Tong's words are carrots. "This official asked the Bintong Dragon Merchant Hall to give you fifty bird guns each, and sell eight hundred catties of Buddha cannons at a low price, which can always make up for the losses of the two adults, right?"

In fact, the arquebus and the Franc cannon can also be bought from the Europeans, but the meaning of Tong Guò Cai Tong is naturally different, Yan Jiu quickly figured out the truth of the period, and promised: "Xia Guan is also a member of the imperial court now, so he should naturally serve his life, please rest assured, one hundred households and one hundred elite soldiers will be ready within ten days." ”

Chen Shangchuan hesitated for a long time, his status is slightly different from that of Yan Jiu, he is equivalent to being a vassal to Guangnan and Daming at the same time, so he naturally has to weigh the pros and cons, but now Dongning is strong, so he finally nodded: "Xiaguan is naturally willing to serve Daming, so ten days later, I will personally send it to Bin Tonglong." ”

"Good, good!" Cai Tong even claimed that it was okay, and at this time, the Ming Zheng battleship had quietly gone away, Cai Tong subconsciously wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, and then asked. "I don't know the two adults, who is familiar with Yang Yandi and Lord Yang?"

Yang Yandi claimed to be Zheng Chenggong's general, but he was actually an anti-Qing pirate in Guangxi. In the early years, Yang Yandi led his troops to occupy Longmen Island in Qinzhou Bay, Guangdong, and was a small local pirate leader, and once called himself King Yang, and was later named the chief soldier of Liwu Town by Zheng Jing, who recruited anti-Qing forces everywhere. However, the good times did not last long, and with the advance of the Qing army, Yang Yandi, who was defeated by Shang Kexi twice, was forced to retreat to the sea of the Dafeng River. After the outbreak of the Rebellion of the Three Feudatories, Yang Yandi once again sent troops to capture Longmen Island. However, with the change of the domestic situation, the regrouped Qing army captured Longmen Island again. Seeing that the general situation was irreversible, Yang Yandi and his deputy general Huang Jin led 3,000 troops to flee to Quang Nam, where they were sheltered by Ruan Phuc Wei and established villages and cities in Bian Hoa, Dingxiang and other places connected to Jiading.

Chen Shangchuan looked at Cai Tong suspiciously, he thought that it was impossible for the other party not to have contact with Yang Yandi, so he hesitated a little when he spoke: "Xiaguan is close to them, and they have dealt with each other a little, I don't know what Lord Cai means?" ”

"This official has also visited Yang Zhen several times, but unfortunately the other party has always avoided it." Cai Tong said straight to the point. "It's probably because they have taken root, I'm afraid that the official will persuade them to go back to Dongning." Cai Tong's words were not intended to stimulate the two of them, so he stopped at the point. "Now that the general's edict has been known to the two adults, this official remembered that the two of them had written to persuade him, as long as he was willing to accept the official position of the imperial court, he could be a foreign minister who listened to the announcement and did not listen to the tune." In order to encourage Chen and Yan, Cai Tong also made it clear. "Of course, there is another meaning, that is, now the big guys are in a foreign land, and their own people must join together, so that they can survive, and Da Ming can be the master of the big guys."

The three feudatories join forces? Daming support? These few sentences made Chen and Yan moved, so they thought about it for a while and felt that it was indeed feasible, and then the two of them successively expressed their approval of Cai Tong's idea.

"Then bother the two adults to send the people and soldiers to Bintonglong in the next few days." Cai Tong, whose layout was gradually realized, showed a little joy on his face. "Tomorrow, this official will go to Bianhe again"
