If the Qing emperors were exposed to the purpose of stealing the capital of China, some officials in the Ming Dynasty might have recognized Wu Sangui's statement that "borrowing the enemy to suppress the enemy" was announced.

But since the Qing emperors tried to go south twice to destroy the Ming Dynasty, officials who were a little more normal-minded knew how ridiculous it was to "borrow the enemy and pacify the enemy".

Therefore, many officials loyal to the Ming Dynasty hated Wu Sangui who let the Qing army enter the pass.

Now these ministers of the Military Affairs Council know how much Zhu Ma hates Wu Sangui, so naturally they will not plead for Wu Sangui, a big traitor.

So, the matter of letting Wu Sangui accept the reorganization unconditionally was decided.

Later, Zhu Mai discussed some other military issues with the Military Ministers, and then the meeting was dismissed.

It was noon when Zhu Mei saw that there was no urgent matter in the memorial that had not been processed, so she prepared to go back to the old Zhulin house to learn modern knowledge and then have lunch.

Unexpectedly, Liu Shuying came from the back hall at this time and handed over a telegram with a serious expression.

"Your Majesty, Zeng Junmen and Bai Xiaosheng, a thousand households of the North Pacification Department of his army, jointly sent a message to a secret message saying that he had found King Ding and King Yong in Qingzhou. What should I do about it?"

Zhu Moe was stunned when he heard this.

Since she took power in Chengdu, she has been sending people to search, but neither Zhu Cilang, Zhu Cijiong, or Zhu Cihuai, there is any news.

After a long time, she had to doubt whether the three brothers were still alive.

Unexpectedly, I suddenly got news from Zhu Cijiong and Zhu Cixu today.

When she came to her senses, she took Zeng Ying and Bai Xiaosheng's telegram.

The telegram said that the two brothers first appeared in Yishui County, with only two guards beside them.

At that time, a battalion of the second town of the border defense army was repaired in Yishui County. Perhaps the two brothers heard that this team was Zhu Dashi's direct descendant, so they went to the military camp to reveal their identity.

Although the camp general was unable to determine the authenticity of the two brothers, he knew it was a big deal and immediately sent the person to Zeng Ying.

But Zeng Ying couldn't tell the truth or false what the two brothers said, so he could only ask some questions to judge.

It turned out that Li Zicheng took the three of them to Yipianshi to Yipianshi and the Guanning Army. After the Qing army was defeated, the two brothers were separated from Zhu Cixuan.

Later, when the Qing captives occupied the capital, the two brothers slowly fled to Shandong under the protection of several guards.

Because the two brothers were too sensitive and were relatively young, the group lacked money, and outside was either bandits or bandits, or Qing robbers.

So the two brothers followed the advice of a guard and hid in the Yimeng Mountains first. Although there were many bandits on Yimeng Mountains, which were not Taiping, the danger was relatively less than that of the outside world.

However, because the two of them were hiding in the mountains, they received very limited information from the outside world. It was not until nearly two months that they could hear some rumors that "the princess of the regent defeated the Qing army in Yangzhou."

Because of leaving Yimeng Mountain, the surrounding prefectures and counties had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and even the descendants of Confucius from Qufu had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, which gave people the feeling that the world had been occupied by the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, people in the Yimeng Mountains only regarded "the princess of the regent defeated the Qing emperor in Yangzhou" as a joke, and few people believed it.

Both brothers were just young men and were willing to believe such news that was beneficial to the Ming Dynasty. However, the guards who protected them were all adults and did not believe in this matter at all, so naturally they would not take the risk of taking them south.

So, until the Qing army was defeated in Shandong, the Ming army successively subdued the lost territory.

The guards who protected the brothers inquired from each other and confirmed some news. Only a month after being regained in Yishui County, did they find an opportunity to bring the brothers to the army...

Zhu Mai knew that the encounter between the two brothers described in the telegram seemed simple, but there must be many dangers that were not explained.

After all, as princes, once the two brothers leak their identities, they will easily covet and exploit them by various forces and ambitions.

However, Zeng Ying and Bai Xiaosheng's position is very clear.

The two of them first stated in the telegram that they could not tell whether the identities of the two brothers were authentic or not, and then asked Zhu Mi how to deal with it.

In other words, if Zhu Mai was unwilling to see these two people, they would be considered fake. Zeng Ying and Bai Xiaosheng could directly execute the two people and the two guards accompanying them in the army.

Liu Shuying was also watching Zhu Mai, wanting to know what Zhu Mai was going to deal with this matter.

As for making suggestions, she knew that such things were definitely not something that a minister could interfere with, and could only be decided by Zhu Mai herself.

Zhu Mai put down the telegram and said, "Let Zeng Ying and Bai Xiaosheng send someone to secretly escort them to Nanjing. There must be no mistake, otherwise they will only ask!"

"yes."

After hearing Zhu Mai's words, Liu Shuying understood that Zhu Mai really wanted to see this "King Yong" and "King Ding", and did not imply that Zeng Ying would fall into the water halfway.

In order to avoid Zeng Ying and Bai Xiaosheng guessing the holy intentions, Zhu Ma even deliberately linked the safety of "King Yong" and "King Ding" to Zeng Ying and Bai Xiaosheng.

Afterwards, Zhu Mai went to the back hall in person, watched the telecommunications office send a message, and then returned to the old Zhulin house.

Because Zhu Xi came back early today, Hao Guangming was waiting for the chicken soup to be cooked in the kitchen. Before the dishes were cooked, even Zhu Xi had not come back.

"Why did you come back so early today?" Hao Guangming said.

"There is news from my two younger brothers." Zhu Mai answered the question irrelevantly.

Hao Guangming was slightly stunned and then said, "Are you sure the identity is true or false?"

In fact, since Zhu Mai ascended the throne, some people have pretended to be King Yong and King Ding, but they are all full of loopholes, and the final result is naturally being arrested and convicted by the government.

Therefore, Hao Guangming believes that the news about the Zhu Moe brothers is not uncommon. The key is whether it can be determined whether it is true or not.

"I have asked Zeng Ying to send someone to escort them to Nanjing." Zhu Mei said, "As for whether it is true or not, I have to know it after seeing it. However, I have a premonition that this time it is probably true."

"If it is true, isn't it a good thing for you? Why do you think you are a little worried? You wouldn't think that King Yong and King Ding can threaten your throne now, right?"

"Of course not." Zhu Niu gave Hao Guangming a blank look, "I was thinking about how to place them so that they would not be used by people with ulterior motives, and would not feel wronged."

"You are concerned, it will be in chaos." Hao Guangming smiled and shook his head, "You have issued an imperial edict to promulgate a series of new policies for the vassal kings. King Yong, although King Ding is your brother, he is also a vassal king.

He was only twelve or thirteen years old, and after he came back, he could just send him to the Fanwang School to study.

In the future, they can choose themselves - if they choose to stay in the country, you will reward them with more money with the treasury to make them live a wealthy life.

If they choose to go overseas, then find a good fiefdom for them and find a group of capable subordinates to assist them."

After hearing Hao Guangming's words, Zhu Ma found that she was really concerned and confused.

Her throne could not be given to King Yong or Ding. She agreed, and the civil and military ministers of the court would not agree, so the two could only become vassal kings.

Since you are a vassal king, you must of course be placed in accordance with the new policy of the vassal king.

If she missed the new policy of the vassal kings, how could other vassal kings, princes and royal families be convinced?

If the later Emperor Ming Dynasty followed suit, the new policy of the vassal king became a joke.

Thinking of this, Zhu Mai finally showed a relaxed look and said, "Husband is right. I know what to do."

···

Zhu Ma was thinking about the matter of relocating her two younger brothers, but she didn't know that some people were far away in Shandong and were more worried and worried than her.
