With a few cannon shots, the Hajj meeting began.

The Korean civil and military respectfully bowed to the king of the Ming Dynasty, of course, this time it was not three kneeling and nine knocking, but a daily kneeling.

Immediately afterwards, the few members of the royal family of North Korea stepped forward one by one to salute.

They were all excited.

Regardless of whether Li Liang is still alive or not, it is impossible for him to continue to be the king of North Korea.

I heard that Li Liang's sons also died in Liaodong.

In other words, Li Liang has no direct heirs.

At this time, Li Li's younger brother Li Li was the most qualified to inherit the throne in terms of blood, and politically, he was even more qualified to succeed to the throne.

Because Li Li during the battle of Bingzi, Hu from Li Liang into the mountain city of the Southern Han Dynasty, strongly advocated the rebuke of peace, after Ding Chou went down to the city, he saw Li Liang to the emperor Taiji three bows and nine knocks, deeply ashamed, since then no longer go to the court, and insisted on using the Ming Dynasty Chongzhen year name.

Li Liang knew his younger brother's will, and did not use the Qing Dynasty era name in the edict given to him, nor did he let him envoy the Qing Dynasty as a hostage. Six years ago, Bibian Si suggested that Li Li go to Shengjing to congratulate Huang Taiji on his birthday, and Li Liang changed his candidate on the grounds that he was sick.

Historically, after Li Li heard the news of Emperor Chongzhen's hanging in the Ming Dynasty, he "cried behind closed doors and slept for a long time".

So, he is a true pro-Ming faction.

It is precisely because of this that Li Limanmen was slaughtered by Haoge some time ago.

In fact, not only Li Li, but also those in the royal family who openly supported the return to the Ming Dynasty were slaughtered.

Now kneeling in front of King Ding, they are all pro-Qing factions and wall grass among the royal family.

And their blood ties are relatively far away, in this special period, everyone is likely to ascend to the throne because of the king's words.

It is that everyone is cautious, showing a flattering face, hoping to set the king in the prime and ascend to the sky in one step.

King Ding endured his disgust, went through the procedure, and asked Wenwu for questions.

The 100 officials of the DPRK could not wait for a long time, and according to the size of their official positions, they stepped forward one after another to introduce themselves and make generous speeches.

Everyone scolded Haoge and Qing Guo completely, and everyone wanted to kill all the Jurchens with their own hands.

King Ding looked at this circle of jumping clowns, and tried to endure it, so he could exercise his mind.

Wu Sangui next to him saw it, and couldn't help but give Wang a thumbs up in his heart.

At a young age, his heart is also full.

An hour later, all the civil and military officials fulfilled their obligations as vassals, denounced the crimes of Jianyu, and conducted deep self-reflection.

King Ding nodded and said, "It seems that you are truly attached to the Ming Dynasty!"

The ministers responded in unison, roaring and loyal.

The North Korean soldiers standing around looked dumbfounded, they had never seen such shamelessness, just a few days ago, they had shown their loyalty to Hauge.

As soon as Hauge fell, they immediately showed their loyalty to Da Ming, and they didn't even bother to change the wording, and sure enough, the politicians were the most shameless.

King Ding said loudly: "Li Liang is morally corrupt, he has no monarch and father, and he should not continue to be the lord of Korea."

"Your Highness Shengming!" The ministers said in unison.

"Li Liang's heirs are extinct, and there are no blood relatives, which is really a great misfortune."

"Your Highness Shengming!" The ministers said in unison.

"The lord of Korea is vacant, who do you think is qualified to be the lord of Korea?" King Ding stared at the audience.

The ministers were puzzled, the succession to the throne of Joseon, looking for relatives, looking at the genealogy and searching, they could immediately find the most suitable heir in blood.

In addition, there are so many princes on the stage, and if you choose one who is capable and virtuous, you can also succeed to the throne.

Why did the king ask them these sinners in public?

The ministers in the audience hesitated, not daring to say who they wanted, and they were all waiting to see what others were doing, so as to probe the king's intentions.

Suddenly, a person shouted: "The heir of the king of Korea is extinct, and the subjects of the land should belong to the Ming Dynasty!" Since then, he has received the grace of the Ming Emperor!"

As soon as these words came out, the people in the audience were in a commotion.

"Can it still be like this?" Some people were stunned.

"I didn't think of that......" someone was annoyed.

King Ding smiled and said, "What's your name?"

"Jin Lixing."

"Good! You, come up."

The man was genuinely frightened, took trembling steps, ascended to the high platform, stood in front of King Ding, and knelt down obediently.

"Throne."

When the man heard the king's words, he was so astonished that he could not speak.

The eunuchs of North Korea brought small stools and set them aside.

"Sit." King Ding spoke again.

Jin Lixing sat down dizzily, sweating on his forehead.

King Ding, who did not care about him, asked, "Who can be the lord of Korea?"

At this moment, everyone knew the king's intentions.

Before, it was like a person who opened his mouth and assigned it to Daming, regretting that he was late, and he didn't dare to speak if he didn't agree in his heart.

Everyone said in unison: "The heir of the king of Korea is extinct, and the subjects of the land should belong to the Ming Dynasty!" Since then, he has received the grace of the Ming Emperor!"

It took a long time for the sound of Lala's answer to pass, but everyone could understand that the Korean ministers had made up their minds and vowed to be the Ming Dynasty.

King Ding was noncommittal, turned his head and asked, "What do you mean?"

The members of the North Korean royal family looked stunned.

At this time, how could they not understand the king's thoughts.

Expand your territory!

The ambition of the king is too great.

The dreams of the royal family members were shattered, and they dared not speak out, and fell to their knees one by one.

"We are not qualified to inherit the throne! The territory of North Korea should be assigned to the Ming Dynasty."

King Ding shook his head, "No, you have!"

The royal family members were dumbfounded, what? Is there a turning point for the better?

King Ding looked at them with a smirk, and continued, "But, alas, you will soon be gone."

When the royal family heard this, they all looked puzzled.

I saw King Ding waving his hand, and the Ming army behind him quickly took out a five-arrow crossbow, and within a breath or two, hundreds of crossbow arrows were shot at those royal family members.

The scene was immediately bloody.

The blood of the royal family flowed all over the ground, down the steps, until it flowed to the feet of the ministers under the stage, and after a while, it was frozen, and it was hideously reminded the ministers that the king would kill people!

"As Gu said just now, they will soon be disqualified."

Chen Yongfu's face changed slightly, he didn't expect King Ding to come to this hand, and it was a bit too much to do so.

When King Ding saw Chen Yongfu's eyes, he was very disdainful.

He only has 8 words in his heart, go to the heavenly kingdom of his M.

For thousands of years, the Central Plains Dynasty almost did not rule the Korean Peninsula directly, not because of insufficient force, but because it was not worth it.

Because there are many mountains and few fields, there is no production, and even if it is defeated, there is no actual benefit, and it has to be maintained by national resources.

Therefore, the Central Plains Dynasty preferred to canonize vassal states, incorporate them into their own tributary system, and stabilize the peninsula at low cost.

In essence, this piece of land is useless, but it is a pity to throw it away, put up a sign there, and say to others: This is mine.

That's all.

But now it's different, Daming has new crops, and it can still produce high yields in the mountains.

Now, the Korean Peninsula is finally qualified to become the land of the Ming Dynasty.
