"Shizi, I, Huang Degong, lost completely this time, and you won."

"I'm convinced."

Huang Degong sighed helplessly and said.

"Lord Huang, you know, what I want to hear is not this, our previous transaction is still valid, as long as you hand over the [roster], I can spare your family, and by the way, I will intercede for you and excuse you."

Zhang Rui said.

"The [roster] is here, Shizi, I believe in your promise, and I want you to protect my family."

Huang Degong no longer struggled, he knew that this was the last chance, and if Zhang Rui lost his patience, his [roster] would also lose its due effect.

Once that time comes, his family and himself will be in danger of dying.

"It's natural, I just need [the roster]."

Zhang Rui said.

"Deal!"

Huang Degong handed over the roster in his hand.

"Dong Guochun, go, bring the roster."

Zhang Rui instructed.

"Yes!"

Dong Guochun said as he stepped forward and took the [roster] from Huang Degong's hand.

After that, he handed it to Zhang Rui.

Zhang Rui on the side opened the roster, looked at the name on it, he was screening its authenticity, and finally, he confirmed that it was true.

"Dong Guochun, immediately mobilize the forces of Jinyiwei, all the people on this [roster] will not be left behind, and all of them will be arrested."

Zhang Rui said.

"No!"

Dong Guochun said.

As soon as he took over the roster, he immediately turned around and went to run an errand, without delaying for a moment, time is precious, and he must race against time.

The principle of his work has always been "national affairs first".

"Someone!"

"Send our Lord Huang home. Inform Xiong Tianfang and let him protect Lord Huang well, and he can't be lazy. ”

Zhang Rui said.

He had already gotten what he wanted, and now, the most important thing was to clean up the remnants of the Huang Degong faction and the Fuwang Party in [Huai'an City].

After that, he will personally write to the imperial court and ask the imperial court to decide the life and death of Huang Degong.

Of course, he also attached his own handling suggestions and sent them to Suncheon City to ask for a holy judgment.

No way.

The matter of disposing of Huang Degong is too big, he can't do this idea, and he must consult Chongzhen.

It's the rule.

………

Shuntian City, the royal palace, the imperial garden, the scorching sun is in the sky, and Chongzhen accompanies the queen of Zhou and the princess of Changping Zhu Xiaoyu to bask in the sun and feed the koi in the lake.

He's in a great mood these days.

First, Zhang Rui has recovered the military power of 200,000 taels of Huai Army, and second, Zhang Shize led his troops to defeat several unbeatable rebels. Today's Daming Kingdom is developing towards a better and better situation, which makes him breathe a sigh of relief.

He watched Princess Zhu Xiaoyu of Changping, accompanied by several palace maids, having a good time by the lake, and he was in a good mood.

Princess Changping is his favorite daughter, and she has always been doted on, as long as he can do it, even the stars in the sky will be picked for his daughter.

Zhu Xiaoyu is exceptionally beautiful, graceful, and graceful, which is inherited from her mother, Zhou.

"Haha!!"

Chongzhen on the side watched Zhu Xiaoyu frolicking happily there, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.

When this bad monarch has been the happiest for more than ten years, these days are his happiest times, the Donglin Party in the court has also stopped a lot, and he also knows how to start to rein in his edge, and everything is not so aggressive, he feels that his authority as a monarch is gradually plump.

A generation of kings, expanding the territory and guiding the country, this feeling is particularly good.

It's also great.

He somewhat understood why the ancestors of the Great Ming Kingdom, Taizong and their ancestors liked to lead troops to conquer.

An indescribable sense of accomplishment that can be addictive and inextricable.

Now he just wants to continue to save the Ming Kingdom from the quagmire and regain the top step by step.

He wants to be a holy lord and a monarch, his name will remain for eternity, and he will never become a sinner in the Ming Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the British prince made a lot of noise in Lianghuai again, and took back the military power of the [Lianghuai Battalion], and even Huang Degong's old fox couldn't do anything about him."

Queen Zhou said.

Although she is already thirty-three years old, because as a queen, she is extremely well maintained, and the years have not left traces on her body at all.

A picture of grace and luxury, thousands of manners, and deep understanding of righteousness, thrifty and love of the people, deeply loved by the people of the Ming Dynasty, it is not an exaggeration to say, her reputation is even above Chongzhen.

"Yes, Queen, this bastard boy is a troublemaker, and when he gets there, it won't stop. This time, the one that Lianghuai asked him to toss is called a [hearty], which is enough for Huang Degong to drink a pot, and from now on, the separatism of Lianghuai will completely collapse, and at the same time, it can also bring a steady stream of money and food to the imperial court. ”

"After this muddy boy returns to Beijing, the widow must reward him well."

Chongzhen said very happily.

For a long time, the Donglin Party and local separatist forces have been the biggest malpractices of the Ming Kingdom, but these forces are deep-rooted, even if he is the king, he can't handle it, so he can only acquiesce to their existence.

During this period of time, because of Zhang Rui, he has successively eradicated Gao Jie, Zhang Denian and Chen Yan, as well as Fuwang and Huang Degong, and dealt with them one by one, which made Daming also take the opportunity to recover a lot of vitality.

After a series of events, Chongzhen has defined Zhang Rui as a [lucky star], and he must cultivate it well, entrust him with important tasks, and make new contributions to sweep away this chaotic world for him.

This time, if the power of Lianghuai can be withdrawn, then in the future, the money and grain of the imperial court will not be a problem, after all, the land of Lianghuai has always been a rich land that can be compared with the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is also an important grain-producing area.

Before, Huang Degong and King Fu held the power of the two Huai, which caused the money and grain of the two Huai to be deducted by their law, and on the contrary, they had to ask the court for money and grain every year.

For more than ten years, not a penny of grain has entered the treasury of the Ming Dynasty, and he knows that these taxes have been divided and eaten by the officials of Lianghuai.

He hated it, but he was powerless to change it.

【Lianghuai Camp】

It has always been one of the reasons why he is jealous.

This time, Zhang Rui was able to smoothly withdraw the military power, and in one fell swoop relieved Huang Degong's biggest reliance on the separatist side, and suddenly regained the absolute right to speak on the two Huai.

This is a miracle.

"Your Majesty, when Zhang Rui comes back, you will invite him into the palace, and the concubine will personally invite him to dinner and reward him for his merits."

Queen Zhou said.

"Hey!"

"That's a good idea."

"There's Queen Law."

"This, you ask people to cook more meat, this muddy boy is still young, he is growing his body, he needs to eat meat."

Chongzhen instructed.

"No!"

The queen on one side, Zhou, said that she had put the matter on the agenda.

"Report!"

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, two Huai urgently."

"Urgent."

Wang Chengen trotted all the way.

As soon as he came closer, I saw him panting, sweating profusely, and out of breath.

"Wang Chengen, you are so flustered, what kind of system have you become."

Chongzhen said with a straight face.

"Your Majesty, the slave knows that he is wrong."

"However, I just received an urgent report from Lianghuai, and the slave was worried about delaying the big event, so he ......."

"Please forgive your sins."

Wang Chengen saw that Chongzhen was angry, he immediately fell to the ground and began to kowtow to admit his mistake.

"Your Majesty, I think the prince is also loyal, don't be angry."

"Princess, you get up first."

"It's weirdly cold on the ground."

Queen Zhou said.

The queen of the Ming Kingdom has always been kind to people, and when she saw Wang Chengen kowtowing there, she immediately softened.
