In the year 1659 AD, the thirteenth year of Yongli, the sixteenth year of Shunzhi, and June of the Gengzi year, the Crown Prince Min, who was left behind by the clan, met with the King of Jin in Mo Nai. They walked arm in arm and chatted happily...
Perhaps the history of later generations will be recorded in this way, but who knows the details and what everyone is thinking about. Zhu Yongxing did not drink too much at the reception banquet, and he only talked with King Li Jin in a casual manner, and did not talk about any substantive issues.
.At this moment, when I returned to the mansion, my mind was unsettled. I was pacing back and forth in the hall, wondering how Li Dingguo would react. If I gave in, what would be the bottom line?
Chief Shi Yicheng walked in quietly, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Your Highness, King Li Jin has beheaded Emperor Yaozong of Tang Dynasty and the guilty sergeants, hung their heads in public, and posted a notice."
Zhu Yongxing nodded lightly and sat back at the table. This was not unexpected. Li Dingguo was very strict in running the army. Tang Yaozong and others had slandered his reputation and prevented people from defecting to Meng Gen. They were already rebellious. Again.
In addition, he was captured by himself, which somewhat caused him to lose some face. Of course, he must regain the lost face as soon as possible.
"Prince Li Jin did not reveal his power." Yicheng said, half as a reminder and half as an advice: "Xu Shiqi has no intention of competing with His Highness."
Although it is not revealed now, it does not mean that Huang Cheng is not the most important thing when the negotiation cannot be reached. Zhu Yongxing tapped the table gently and said thoughtfully: "If the negotiation does not go well, I am prepared to make some concessions."
, as long as King Li Jin still insists on resisting the Qing Dynasty, well, there is no doubt about this. Even if everyone discusses it, it is better than splitting up and going their own way."
Yicheng moved the corner of his mouth inaudibly and whispered: "Your Highness is a member of the clan. If he achieves world-class martial arts and is supported by all the generals - King Jin may be worried about this, right?"
Zhu Yongxing frowned and heard what Yi Cheng meant. Is Li Dingguo loyal to Yongli because he is afraid that he will compete with Yongli for the throne in the future? This is a bit premature. He is the imperial court and a left-behind sent by the emperor.
, shouldn’t he be conscientious and take reviving the Ming Dynasty as his own responsibility? Is it because he has performed too well that Li Dingguo has such long-term worries?
"I am the emperor's pure son, and I will explain my feelings to the King of Jin tomorrow." Zhu Yongxing cupped his hands carelessly, as a distant tribute to the exiled court, but this direction seemed to be in the wrong direction.
This is a big issue of right and wrong. Although Yongli is cowardly and difficult to achieve, he is regarded as the co-leader of the world. If anyone raises another banner, it means that the stormy Nanming has once again split. That would be too much.
Disappointing.
"Whether the King of Jin has this intention is just a humble speculation." Yi Cheng quickly stopped him, "If His Highness is eager to express his love, he will be suspected of not having three hundred taels of silver in this place."
Zhu Yongxing thought for a while and felt a little troubled. If he directly revealed his feelings, he would be suspected of getting darker and darker.
"Your Highness, I have been thinking about my position for a long time. It seems that I can use Your Highness the Princess to give a hint to the King of Jin." Seeing that Zhu Yongxing was worried, Yi Cheng began to make suggestions.
Boss, can you be more direct? If you go round and round and meet a boss with poor understanding, he will kick you out. Zhu Yongxing lamented that his IQ is not bad, and he can actually hear the hidden meaning in the ancient sayings.
I mean, it's really a lot of progress.
"Tell me, what does this have to do with Azhu?" Zhu Yongxing raised his eyebrows.
"When the marriage was decided, I just said that I wanted to make the princess the principal concubine." Yicheng said briefly: "The King of Jin's heart is settled first, and then later, even if the court agrees to the canonization, there is always a way to solve it."
Zhu Yongxing narrowed his eyes slightly. It was the implicitness of the ancients. He established a foreign woman as a concubine, implying that he had no intention of competing for the throne. The solution in the future, hehe, is just to find a name, abolish the old and establish the new. People nowadays,
Treat women as nothing more than tools.
"I have already made up my mind to make Azhu the principal concubine. It would not be inappropriate to mention it to the King of Jin." Zhu Yongxing said this, indicating that he had accepted Yicheng's suggestion, but he had no plans to discard it in the future.
Lixin has been completely rejected. Of course, there is no need to make this clear to Yicheng.
"Your Highness must be tired today, so why not postpone the evening martial arts meeting for now?" Yi Cheng saw that Zhu Yongxing accepted his advice, and felt happy in his heart. He thought that Zhu Yongxing might be tired due to the banquet, so he wanted Zhu Yongxing to get up early.
Take some rest.
"No need, I am in good health and young, so I get tired easily." Zhu Yongxing smiled, waved his hand and said, "Just make the usual arrangements, I will go when the time comes."
This martial arts lecture can be regarded as a prelude to Zhu Yongxing's establishment of a military academy. There is one meeting every three days, each lasting about an hour. They are all held after dinner. He analyzes some battle cases with the generals, and then puts forward some military concepts in his memory.
Show it out and discuss and study together.
At first, there were not many people participating, and their ranks were relatively high. Most of them came to give Zhu Yongxing face and show off. But later, Zhu Yongxing added regulations, and all military personnel above the Qianxing level had to go forward except for official duties.
Come to participate, and the number of people suddenly increases.
The generals still obeyed the orders at first, but after listening to them, they gradually became interested. The military lectures were not as serious as students attending classes, which made people feel restrained, but the atmosphere was relaxed and everyone could speak freely. And Zhu Yongxing also
Not only talking about military affairs, but also some knowledge about other countries and places. This is undoubtedly a good opportunity to broaden their horizons for the generals who have little information and limited knowledge.
………………
Qingyang King Liu Zhen walked into King Jin's study with his head held high, knelt down on the ground and said: "My dear, I'm going to meet my foster father."
"No need to be polite." Li Dingguo gave him a kind gesture, because he felt guilty towards the King of Shu Liu Wenxiu. He wanted to treat his old comrade's deathbed entrustment well, but he didn't want Liu Zhen, who was originally going to greet him, to make meritorious deeds on the battlefield.
He was even more appreciated by Zhu Yongxing and became the king of the county.
Liu Zhen turned a deaf ear and kowtowed three times respectfully before standing up: "Father, my son rushed to kill me in the middle of the battle. He has only accomplished so little. He has lived up to his daily teachings and has not tarnished his honorable name."
Li Dingguo almost watched Liu Zhen grow up, and supposedly they wouldn't be strangers after not seeing each other for such a short period of time, but unknowingly, Li Dingguo felt that there was a gap. Alas, it was always his own fault, and he was suspicious of the King of Shu, so he was placed under house arrest.
To prevent it, Liu Wenxiu died of depression.
"You bravely chased down the poor bandits and captured Xian Guoan alive. You did a great job." Li Dingguo slightly gnawed his head and sighed: "Now that he is the king of the county, he should be able to comfort brother Liu's spirit in heaven."
Liu Zhen's eyes were slightly red, and he bowed and said: "The child who attacked the prince is actually the shadow of his father. The teachings of his adoptive father have failed to live up to his reputation, and he is worried. Therefore, I asked you to go to Annan with His Majesty Min, hoping that we can build it again.
My meritorious deeds are to stop everyone’s mouth. I didn’t report it to my adoptive father beforehand, so I hope my adoptive father will forgive me.”
