Shang Shuying still ran away, but her two brothers, Shang Zhijie and Shang Zhiying, are gone!

The night battle she saw last night was the battle between the two good brothers against the father and son Lu Bu, it was really a battle between the brothers and the father and son "cloth", but of course the pair of brothers died heroically, so that the men of the living Lu Bu and his son were searched out of the forest where they were hiding, and their heads were cut off alive on the spot! Looking at the painful expressions on the faces of the two dead heads, you know that cutting off your head is a very painful thing.

Third Prince Zhu looked at the head that was placed in a very beautiful tray and brought it to him, just sighed lightly, and thought: If it weren't for the loyalty of Wang Datou, Chen Yonghua, and Chang Mingyue, my head would probably be placed on a plate

Thinking of this, the third prince waved his hand and ordered the left and right to find two beautiful boxes, put the heads of Shang Zhijie and Shang Zhiying into them, and then bury the corpses of Shang Zhixin outside the outer city of Nanjing.

Seeing that the two bloody human heads were taken away by the two brocade guards, the third prince of Zhu said to the living Lu Bu father and son, who had already found a chair to sit down by himself: "King Nan, King Ying, the two of you have come just in time, and the widow is discussing the country with a few gentlemen!" ”

"How's it going?" Li Fuchen asked with a smile, "Has the matter of who is the emperor been discussed?" ”

What? Is this still negotiable? The third prince of Zhu was frightened by the words he gave to Li Fuchen.

"Father, there is no need to discuss this matter, the emperor must be the third prince." Li Zhongshan hurriedly sent a reassuring pill to the third prince of Zhu, "But how to govern this country still has to be discussed." ”

"Yes, yes," said the third prince of Zhu, "just now Mr. Lizhou was suggesting that he should build a republic and administrative country, and the widow also thinks that the republic is good, the blessings are shared, the difficulties are shared, and the harmony is beautiful." ”

"It's not blessed to share," Li Yat-sen corrected the third prince with a smile, "It's the right to share the so-called sharing the world with it, that's what it means." The harmony of the republic is harmony and harmony, and harmony is precious. Together, it means that the king and the people and the people share the world, the monarch and the minister are harmonious, the people are united, and the country has major affairs, then the monarch and the people discuss it together. Prison country, father, do you think this republic is good? ”

"Good, good, that's good, it's very good." Where does the third prince of Zhu dare to say that it is not good?

This can be the unanimous opinion of the third and fourth gentlemen, how dare he, a small candidate of the primordial emperor, oppose it?

"This." Li Fuchen frowned, this republic doesn't seem to be very good! If there is a major event in the country, it would be good for the vassal king and the courtiers to discuss it, so why should they bring the countrymen and scholars?

But since this matter was pushed by his second son, it is not good for him to go against the second son. His surname is Li now, and his second son is Li Er! Gotta coax it!

Thinking of this, Li Fuchen nodded: "This. Not bad either. But no matter how much we discuss the republic, there will always be a leader in the DPRK and China, right? Isn't the one who takes the lead called the Great General Lu Shang Shushi? Also, how is this place governed? Is it to set up a wide town? In the past, when Mr. Lizhou ran the Restoration School in Guangdong, he advocated the prime minister's governance and Fangzhen's imperial border. Mr. Shunshui has always advocated that the shogunate should govern the government, and Fang Zhen should rule the nine sides and the coastal lands. I think it's all good! ”

Of course, Li Fuchen wants to "dominate the world", but he does not have the obsession of Geng Jingzhong, but has the attitude that if he can be the emperor, he will be the emperor, and if he can't be the emperor, he will be the general.

Moreover, Geng Jingzhong, the king of the east, had just been defeated and fled because he wanted to be the emperor, so Lao Li was not very interested in being the emperor, and opening the shogunate to be a general became the first choice.

Of course, he didn't want to be a general himself, but wanted Li Yat-sen to be a general, and he just wanted to go back to Liangguang to be the lord of a big domain.

Why didn't the third prince of Zhu understand what Li Fuchen meant? But he doesn't count this matter, he is the alternate primordial emperor and has no real power!

"King Ying, what do you think of the name of this official in charge of the center?" The third prince of Zhu kicked the ball to Li Zhongshan again.

Li Zhongshan said: "The power of the center should be divided into discussion and governance, and all major military affairs should be handed over to the meeting first, and then handled by the Prime Minister's Mansion or the General's Office." As for the central minister, what is the name of the minister? The minister means that today is a troubled era, and the troubled times must be the first army and martial arts, and the minister of the first assistant should be called the general, and add the name of the governor of the Chinese and foreign military. When the world is calm in the future, the four seas will be one, and then the general will be changed to the prime minister. ”

"That's good," Li Fuchen said with a smile, "but who is the right general?" ”

As he spoke, he looked at his son Li Zhongshan - although he always quarreled with Li Zhongshan, and he also showed his love for Li Jiqing everywhere. But in his mind, Li Zhongshan is actually the first, then the eldest son Li Jizhen, the youngest son Li Jiyong, and Li Jiqing can only rank first among the concubines. As for Li Jiqing's position as Fang Zhen, it was actually given to him by his mother Kong Sizhen.

"Whoever becomes a general should still be nominated by the Restoration Conference," Li Zhongshan didn't wait for Huang Zongxi, Gu Yanwu and others to nominate him together, so he spoke first to set the tone, "In addition. Fang Zhen and the general can't be taken at the same time! The general sits in the center, controls the soldiers and horses of the world, and supervises all Chinese and foreign armies, and there is no reason to lead another town. ”

"Second child," Li Fuchen hurriedly reminded, "You are the envoy of Yuehai Town!" ”

"Father," Li Zhongshan said, "the sons of the Emperor will resign as the marshal of the Guangdong Navy after the enthronement of the Prison State." ”

His meaning is very clear, he wants to be a general, and he will no longer serve as the envoy of the Guangdong Navy.

"Then who is the Guangdong Navy for?" Li Fuchen asked, "Is it for Xiuqing?" ”

"How can Xiuqing be a festival envoy for a child?" Li Zhongshan said with a smile, "Father, after the son ascends the throne, he will propose to remove the Yuehai Domain and hand over Guangfu and Shaozhou to the jurisdiction of the Guangdong Governor Yamen!" ”

"What?" Li Fuchen was stunned, "Second brother, you really don't want Guangfu anymore?" That's Guangfu! ”

Li Zhongshan said with a smile: "The towns under the world are all the land of the country, and they are just managed for the country." Moreover, Guangfu is the heart of Guangdong, if the town is set up in Guangfu, does it mean that the General's Mansion can neither manage the affairs of Guangdong, nor can it get the wealth of Guangdong? If by extension, there are Fang towns everywhere outside Yingtianfu, then what does the imperial court do? What does the general care? ”

Since Li Yat-sen is aiming at the position of general, of course he must strengthen the power and financial resources of the central government!

Moreover, he did not think that the politics of the Chinese people could tolerate the division of warlords, and instead of being eliminated by history in the future, it was better to take the initiative to transform now, and merge the Guangdong Navy, Huaixi Army, Yingtian Army, Yanghuai Army, Yangtze River Naval Division and other departments into an army directly under the jurisdiction of the Great General's Mansion.

Correspondingly, Guangfu, Shaozhou, Huaixi, Huaidong and Yingtianfu, as well as the Jiangnan Prefecture that is about to be recovered, will all become the territory directly under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty!

"Second brother, have you discussed this matter with King Bei?" Li Fuchen did not raise objections, after all, in his opinion, in the future, the shogunate will also be surnamed Li! But this number of roads is a bit of a big blow to Liu Jinzhong, the king of the north!

The king of the north is also a meritorious minister who has calmed the chaos, and he also divorced righteously and got into a wife, but now he can't be a general, and he can't expand his territory, is it a big loss?

"Not yet," Li Yat-sen asked, "where is the King of the North?" ”

"Back to King Ying," Jin Yiwei replied hurriedly to Liu Shuochuan, "the Northern King led his troops to the east to pursue Geng Jingzhong, and now he should have arrived at Zhenjiang Mansion." ”

Li Zhongshan nodded and said, "Let him chase after him first, and then ask him to come back to discuss the country!" ”

After saying this, Li Zhongshan arched his hand at the third prince Zhu and said: "King, the father and son chased the enemy overnight, and they are a little tired, so they want to go back to the palace to rest first, and then come to the prison mansion tomorrow to discuss major matters!" ”

The third prince nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, King Nan and King Ying, you all work hard, you must have a good rest." ”

"King Xie."

Li Fuchen, Li Zhongshan, Li Jiqing, father and son, got up together, thanked them, and hurriedly left the prison mansion and went back to their Mochou Lake Palace.

Li Zhongshan returned to the Mochou Lake Palace, just finished washing and changing, and before he had time to squint for a while, Yang Xiaohuan pushed the door and reported: "Lord, Lu Zhongtang and Chen Zhongtang ask to see you." ”

"Hehe," Li Zhongshan smiled, "The two of them are very well-informed, and they really can't be idle for a while!" Ask them to wait at the Shengqi Building, and I'll go to my father's place. ”

Lu Sanhao and Chen Yonghua also stayed awake all night, but they were not sleepy at all from yesterday morning to now, Nanjing City, no, the entire Ming Dynasty, and even the sky has changed!

A real change!

"Tomorrow", "Qingtian", and "Zhoutian" will all be replaced by "Yuantian"!

The two of them are the core characters of "Changing the Sky", how can they sleep? There's a lot going on!

Seeing Li Fuchen and Li Yat-sen's father and son coming together, Lu Sanhao and Chen Yonghua hurriedly got up and saluted. Li Zhongshan waved his hand and said: "Don't be polite, time is urgent, we don't need to be polite, let's just say it if we have something to say!" ”

Pressed for time?

Lu Sanhao and Chen Yonghua immediately understood!

Now that Geng Jingzhong has fled, the only one who can threaten Ying Tianfu is, of course, Liu Jinzhong!

Although Liu Jinzhong is loyal to Daming, this does not mean that he will listen to the words of the three major halls.

"The two princes," Lu Sanhao said, "now the inner city of Nanjing and the outer city of the west are under our control. Among them, the most critical imperial city was guarded by the Huaidong regiment led by Chang Zongzhen, the western outer city was guarded by the Huaixi Red Turban, the commander of Luo's army, and the inner city was guarded by the Yingtian regiment of the lower officials. In addition, there are at least 60,000 Ying Tianguo people's troops that have not been disbanded, and they are led by Chang Zongzhen, Luo Zongzhen and Xia Guan, respectively, and they are stationed in various important places. The general army of the water division Jiang controlled the Yangtze River near Yingtian, and received reinforcements from Jiangbei to cross the river at any time. ”

Chen Yonghua said: "The two princes, King Liu Bei has made a lot of contributions this time, and he must be properly appeased." If you can't let the Northern King get your hands on the center, then you must not let him suffer on the turf. ”

As he spoke, his brow furrowed a little.

This is easier said than done.

How to divide the territory? The Jiangbei part of Anhui is the source of the Huaixi Red Turban, and it must be directly governed by the imperial court, otherwise the Huaixi Red Turban will not become a vassal army? And Yangzhou, Huai'an, Tongzhou and other state capitals in Jiangsu are the hometowns of Huaiyang Tuanlian, on which Chen Yonghua depends, and it is impossible to give them to Liu Jinzhong. And Ying Tianfu is the foundation of Ying Tian's group training, and it is also the capital master of the Ming Dynasty, of course, Liu Jinzhong can't be involved.

As for Zhenjiang, Changzhou, Suzhou, Songjiang, Taicang and other state capitals, it is also the hometown of fish and rice in southern Jiangsu. It is absolutely impossible to give it to Liu Jinzhong!

In this way, Liu Jinzhong only has two state capitals, Xuzhou and Haizhou, isn't he a big loss?

"When the King of the North returns, let's discuss it well," Li Zhongshan thought about and said, "If the King of Liu Bei is willing to march into Zhejiang, we can temporarily divide Zhejiang to him as a domain." ”

Now Geng Jingzhong is not completely finished, Li Zhongshan estimates that he will run to Zhejiang, and Liu Jinzhong's wave of pursuit, chasing Suzhou and Songjiang is almost the same, it is unlikely that he will pursue all the way to Zhejiang, let alone take all of Zhejiang.

Therefore, although the situation of the Ming Dynasty is good, it still does not unify Jiangnan, and the territory on paper is even a little smaller than before the Battle of Nanjing.

Li Fuchen, who had not spoken before, also frowned at this time and said: "There are indeed many territories to be fought and Anqing is still a breath away from being won, and now the five state capitals of Taiping, Chizhou, Huizhou, Ningguo, and Guangde are probably going to become thieves again, and the whole province of Zhejiang and the eastern part of Fujian will probably have to lose the good fight after the New Year!" If Liu Beiwang makes trouble again."

If Liu Jinzhong is dissatisfied with Li Zhongshan's arrangement, then this fun will be great! The Ming Dynasty really "returned to the Year of the Dragon and Phoenix overnight" - if you don't count the two Guangxi and part of Fujian that were cut off, it was almost Zhu Yuanzhang's territory when he was in charge of Pingzhang in the south of the Han and Song Dynasties.

"Can't let him make trouble!" Li Zhongshan pondered and said, "When I go back, I will send an envoy to Liu Jinzhong's army to talk to him." ”

Li Fuchen said: "Send Zhou Peigong or Yao Qisheng, they both have a clever mouth." ”

Zhou Peigong and Yao Qisheng are now outside the city of Anqing, of which Zhou Peigong is Li Zhongshan's military advisor, and Yao Qisheng is Li Fuchen's military advisor, and they both handed over the front-line army to the command of these two military divisions before returning to Nanjing, and continued to besiege Anqing.

"They can't move," Li Zhongshan shook his head, "General An Qingshou is very difficult to deal with, so Zhou Peigong and Yao Qisheng have to watch it carefully!" And it was difficult for them to convince Liu Jinzhong. To stabilize Liu Jinzhong, the only way to do this is to ask Mr. Shunshui to come out. ”

"Zhu Shunshui?" Chen Yonghua was stunned for a moment, "This old gentleman is not particularly able to speak, and he may not be willing to be a lobbyist for you." ”

He is quite familiar with Zhu Shunshui, because Zhu Shunshui has been in exile in Japan all these years, and Zheng Jing sent someone to invite him back, so he belongs to the scholars of Chen Yonghua and Zheng Jing, and his views are different from those of the "Four Gentlemen".

Although the four gentlemen were all in favor of the establishment of Fangzhen, they also advocated the maintenance of centralized power, and none of them were very "feudal", but inclined to national politics. This is very progressive, and the progressive ones are a little bit unsure of how to do it?

Zhu Shunshui inspected politics in Japan and felt that Japan's feudal feudalism had certain merits, and it was possible to change the lord of the world without changing the emperor. This is quite suitable for the current Ming Dynasty, the emperor is still surnamed Zhu, but he is not in power, the shogun can be surnamed Li - the Li family is powerful in the current Ming Dynasty, and the prince alone has a servant, Li Fuchen, the king of the south, Li Zhongshan, the king of England, and Li Laishun, the loyal king! This Li Fuchen is in alliance with Li Zicheng, so these "Li Wang" are all a family!

Therefore, in Zhu Shunshui's mind, only one of the three kings of the Li family can be the shogun.

In addition, now that the two kings of the east and west have committed treason, they can restrain the three Li kings, and only the winged king Zheng Jing and the northern king Liu Jinzhong are left, so these two kings split the land and lead the group of vassals, which is the best strategy to balance the Li family and defend the Ming Dynasty!

If they want to fight with the Li clan for the center, the consequence must be destroyed!

Since Zhu Shunshui sincerely believes in this set of feudal curtain system, it is the most convincing for him to come forward.

And Zhu Shunshui's reputation is much better than Zhou Peigong and Yao Qisheng, Zhu Shunshui is a recognized sage and gentleman, Zhou Peigong and Yao Qisheng are "poisoners", and Liu Jinzhong can believe that they have ghosts. He doesn't believe anything, let alone Zhou Peigong and Yao Qisheng, even if Zhuge Kongming is resurrected, it's useless! In case he impulsively slaughtered Zhou Peigong and Yao Qisheng, then the Li family's father and son would lose a lot.

Thinking of this, Li Zhongshan smiled and said to Chen Yonghua: "Fufu, you and Mr. Yiwang and Mr. Shunshui are one, and you can also write a personal letter to Mr. Shunshui and bring it to King Liu Bei, telling him that if our Li family fights for the central power, we will not give him more land on the ground of the two rivers, and it is best for him to go to Zhejiang to develop!" The Wing King is in Fujian, and the North King is in Zhejiang, and they are horns of each other, and they are restricting the Li Shogunate together! ”

Chen Yonghua already understood what Li Zhongshan meant, nodded and said, "If that's the case, then Mr. Shunshui will definitely be willing to come forward to go through this experience." ”
