Chapter 807: The Li family asks for submission, please grant An Lebo the title

"Your Majesty, Zeng Ying sent a telegram from Jingcheng, saying that Jingcheng has been captured. Jierhalang died in the battle on the south city wall, and Dorgon set fire to himself in his temporary puppet palace and died.

Although his body has been charred, based on the items left on his body and the identification of the captives, it is undoubtedly confirmed that it is Dorgon himself."

In the Forbidden City in Nanjing, in the Wuying Hall, Liu Shuying presented a newly arrived telegram to Zhu Aona.

After reading this, Zhu Yuyao nodded, feeling happy and with a little emotion: "The Qinglu were finally defeated."

Since Nurhachi rebelled against the Ming Dynasty in the forty-sixth year of Wanli Period (1618), during the Later Jin Dynasty, the Qing captives became the Ming Dynasty's main border troubles, causing the Ming Dynasty to bleed for them for thirty or forty years.

Only when Zhu Yushuo ascended the throne as emperor, raised his troops in the Northern Expedition, won the Northern Expedition, and recovered western Liaoning and eastern Liaoning, was the border trouble of the Qing captives resolved.

As for the Qing captives who retreated beyond the Liao Great Wall, they no longer threatened the Ming Dynasty and were no longer considered a border threat.

Of course, if we count from the time when Nurhaci started his army with the thirteen legacies of his ancestors and father, that is, from the eleventh year of Wanli (1583) when he was appointed by the Ming Dynasty as the commander of Jianzhou Left Guard Capital, then Jianzhou Jurchens will be the core

This northeastern ethnic minority force has existed in this time and space for exactly sixty years, a period of sixty years.

Thinking of this, Zhu Aolao not only thought to herself: Could it be that there is really a destiny in the world? Was it because she unexpectedly obtained the magical power to travel to later generations that ended the fate of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and finally made it impossible?

Then she shook her head and laughed, forgetting about it.

After coming back to her senses, Zhu Yuyao said to Liu Shuying: "The telegram ordered Zeng Ying to assist the Recruitment Department of the Military Academy to establish a local garrison in North Korea. They will first be called Korean civilians and brave to assist them in temporarily implementing military control over North Korea until all parties

Until all local rebels and bandits have been wiped out."

"yes."

Liu Shuying took note of Zhu Yuluo's order and went to ask the Telecommunications Office to send a telegram.

Not long after, she came back with a new telegram.

"Your Majesty, there is a telegram from North Korea from Fusi, Jinyiweibei Town, and there are new changes in the inheritance of the Lee family of Jeju Island."

After speaking, he handed the telegram to Liu Zhu, who handed it to Zhu Aina.

There was a lot of content in the telegram this time, so Zhu Aao read it more slowly.

According to Zhu Yushuo’s original prediction, when the crown prince of Joseon, Lee Hao, was poisoned, and the king of Joseon, Lee Joo, was burned to death, and the King of Kirpyeong defeated the other two in the civil strife, he would most likely inherit the throne of Joseon even if he was seriously ill.

Unexpectedly, the ministers of the North Korean parliamentary government later united and imprisoned the King of Kirping, and made the eleven-year-old Li Di, the eldest son of the crown prince Li Hao, the new king of North Korea.

He also asked Li Hao's direct wife Zhang to listen to the government behind the curtain, and handle state affairs together with the leaders of the government, Zuo Yizheng (left prime minister), and right Yizheng (right prime minister).

Zhang felt that he and his son had become puppets of the parliamentary government, especially Prime Minister Jin Yu, who showed great disrespect to Zhang and Li Bi because of his seniority and seniority.

Kim Jo-myung, the son of Kim Woo-min, also held considerable strength in the small court of North Korea. Kim Woo-myung even controlled the largest army on Jeju Island.

Zhang was worried that the Kim family would seek to usurp the throne and that she and her son would not even be able to save their lives, so she contacted the intelligence officer of Bukjin Fusi on Jeju Island and sent a letter expressing her willingness to lead North Korea to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

She asked for nothing else but that the Ming Dynasty could give her son the title of Anlebo, so that she and her son could come to Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty and enjoy a lifetime of wealth.

Zhu Aelao couldn't help but smile after reading it.

Although Lu Chaoming did not explain it in the message, she could imagine that the matter must not be that simple.

North Korean Prime Minister Kim Yu may not really have the intention to usurp the throne. Perhaps Zhang was bewitched by spies from the Imperial Guard.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye now knows that North Korea is probably in danger of being saved. What can Jin Yu, a highly respected veteran minister who is over seventy years old, seek to usurp the throne?

Just like in Hao Guangming's case, the general manager of the company knew that the company was going bankrupt and would definitely not try his best to become the boss of the company.

As for how the Jinyiwei spies persuaded the Princess Zhang of North Korea, Zhu Aona didn't know, and she didn't want to know.

The new king of the Li family took the initiative to surrender, which was the best thing for Ming Dynasty, and it was also good for his face.

So, Zhu Yusao put down the telegram and said: "Reply to Lu Chaoming and tell him that Korea has been a vassal of the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years and has become as close as a family.

Since the new king now hopes to submit to the Ming Dynasty, I will naturally not be stingy with the title of Anlebo.

In addition, I am also planning to designate the Queen Mother Zhang of North Korea as my first-class wife of the Ming Dynasty, and reward her with ten thousand taels of silver."

Zhu Yasuo paused for a moment when she said this. After Liu Shuying finished remembering, she continued: "Call Yan Yingyuan again to lead the Dongyang Navy to Jeju Island to protect Uncle Anle, mother and son."

Liu Shuying responded "Yes", and after taking note, she hurried to send the telegram.

She was also quite excited at this time, because the surrender of the new king of Korea meant that the Koryo Peninsula was incorporated into the territory of the Ming Dynasty!

···

Jeju Island.

After all, this place is still under the control of the Korean royal family, or the small Korean court.

Zhang's contact with Jin Yiwei's intelligence agent was thought to be a secret, but not long after the incident, Jin Yu and other ministers of the National Assembly found out about it.

Although they learned who the Jinyiwei intelligence agent Zhang contacted was, none of the ministers dared to mention the arrest.

As for the news that the new king had requested submission from the Ming Dynasty, it had already spread out.

In a fairly large courtyard, Jin Yu, who had white hair and beard, looked at Mrs. Zhang who was holding the new king Li Chong in her arms, and couldn't help but stamp her feet and said: "The Queen Mother is confused."

The left prime minister Pu Shengqi on the side also said bitterly: "Although the Ming Dynasty's intention to annex Korea is obvious, the Ming Dynasty is a celestial dynasty that pays attention to etiquette and reputation.

I believe that as long as we show sincerity later and send envoys to Nanjing to plead with Emperor Zhaowu of the Ming Dynasty, she may not come to invade Korea with a bad reputation.

Now the Queen Mother has actually asked the new king to summon him and ask for his surrender. Doesn’t this mean that the Ming Dynasty can justifiably annex Korea?"

Before, Zhang was just Li Hao's legitimate wife, that is, the crown prince's concubine. She suddenly became the Queen Mother and could not withstand the aggressive momentum of Jin Yu and other ministers who discussed politics.

But after taking a look at the heroic Ming Dynasty imperial guards dressed as palace guards, Zhang felt confident again, glanced at Jin Yu and the others, and said: "If you hadn't forced me too hard and made me and the king worry about our safety, how could we have done it?"

Would you think of surrendering to the Ming Dynasty?

However, now I feel that it is a great thing for North Korea to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. My son and I can go to Nanjing to enjoy peace and prosperity, and you can also become ministers of the Ming Dynasty, isn't it good?"

Jin Yu, Park Shengqi and others were immediately speechless.

How to say this?

There is a saying that it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail.

In the past, they were under one person and above ten thousand people in North Korea. They could do whatever they wanted and do whatever they wanted, and their lives were very leisurely.

But if North Korea surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, their situation would change greatly.

Even a prime minister like Jin Yu who was proficient in Confucianism might not be able to become a fourth-rank official in the Ming Dynasty.

The most important thing is that Jin Yu and others all know that the Ming Dynasty today is very different from the Ming Dynasty they knew in the past.

From Zhu Ming's clan to local officials and gentry, no one has tax-free privileges. The more land they own, the more taxes they pay.

Moreover, Confucianism has declined somewhat in the Ming Dynasty. Today, Emperor Zhaowu of the Ming Dynasty attaches great importance to natural science.

This means that if the Ming Dynasty ruled North Korea, they, the officials, gentry and aristocratic families who owned large areas of land and many slaves, would be severely suppressed.

What you learn is not as valued as it used to be.

How could they be willing to accept such changes?

It is a pity that the Ming army is now too powerful and intimidating. Even if they are not willing to accept it, there is nothing they can do at this point.

They came here today actually just to complain to Mr. Zhang.

As for taking any action, I dare not.
