Zhu Qizhen was flattered by flattery. Since the establishment of the imperial court, both Xie Wan and Fan Biao were very sensible. Now he alone decides all matters in Taiwan.
It had been a long time since he had enjoyed this supreme feeling of having power over the world.
The key was to get the support of Yan Shenggong Kong Hongxu and Tianshi Zhang Chenglu, and to train new confidants such as Han Shuiping, Zhao Tai, Xue Meng, etc., which completely solved the problem of unjust names and unjust words.
No longer worried about Xie Wan and Fan Biao usurping power.
Zhu Qizhen only felt that his future was bright.
Send troops in three days. If you can capture one of Fujian, Guangdong and Zhejiang, it will be good. If you can't capture it, it doesn't matter. Continue to build self-respect in Taiwan and develop the navy vigorously. In this way, Zhu Jianji, that bastard, can only look back and sigh!
He signaled all the ministers to leave, leaving only two people.
A Korean level.
Because the Tiger Guards under Han Shui are responsible for the security of Zhu Qi Town and have the most contact with him, Han Shui is now likely to replace Fan Biao as the number one person in Taiwan's military.
He is already Zhu Qizhen's most trusted general.
As for Kong Hongxu, who was deposed by Zhu Jianji, Zhu Qizhen gave him a new future and hope. Therefore, Kong Hongxu was grateful and loyal to Zhu Qizhen!
In just a few months, Kong Hongxu became a celebrity in front of Zhu Qizhen.
And Kong Hongxu is young.
Be enterprising.
Compared with Xie Wan's conservative thinking, Zhu Qizhen was more pleased.
So now the people Zhu Qizhen trusts most in both literature and military affairs are Han Shuiping and Kong Hongxu.
Zhu Qizhen glanced at Meng Xi.
The head of the chamberlain and the only chamberlain of the small imperial court understood immediately, walked out of the Beiwang Pavilion in small steps, and said to the guards outside the palace: "His Majesty's decree, no one is allowed to disturb it."
Zhu Qizhen stood up, walked to Han Shuiping, and asked: "Has Fan Biao, who is stationed in Penghu, done anything strange?"
Han Shui immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, General Fan has done nothing unusual. The four guards under his command are also based on the Penghu Islands and are doing their best to defend the capital."
Zhu Qizhen hummed.
So the best.
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. Fan Biao almost single-handedly pulled Huilong Camp into existence. If Fan Biao wants to rebel, with Han's current strength, it is very likely that he will not be able to suppress Fan Biao.
He laughed self-deprecatingly, "Maybe I'm overthinking it."
Kong Hongxu said: "It is essential to be on guard against others. Now is the critical period for Your Majesty's restoration of the great cause. You cannot make any mistakes. It is always right to be cautious."
Zhu Qizhen nodded, "Shenggong Yan, if we send out the army in three days, we can quickly capture one of the three places of Guangdong, Fujian or Zhejiang. We also need the Lao Qing family to quickly cross the sea and convince the local soldiers. If possible,
, it would be best if you can convince the Southern Sect of the Kong family to surrender to me. Of course, Duke Yansheng doesn’t have to worry, even if the Southern Sect of the Kong family surrenders, the position of Duke Yansheng is still yours."
Kong Hongxu immediately accepted the order.
But he shook his head secretly in his heart.
How could the Southern Sect of the Kong family surrender so easily?
Now the position of Duke Yan is in Nanzong. After they surrendered, they are no longer human beings inside and outside.
But the southern sect of the Kong family is not important.
The key is the gentry in the south. If Taiwan can get the support of the gentry in the south, there is still a lot to be done - but the current situation is only slightly better than when Zhu Zunfeng was in trouble in the ninth year of Jingtai.
Han Shui coughed and said, "Your Majesty, after I have resigned, I will leave the Tiger Guards in Kaohsiung to guard His Highness's safety. The Wolf Cavalry Guards, Jin Yao Guards and the newly formed four guard posts will all gather at the seaside to prepare for the attack in three days' time."
Preparing for the army?"
Zhu Qizhen nodded, "Good!"
Kong Hongxu said: "I'm just afraid that the Ministry of Revenue won't support it."
All money and food must come from the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Zhu Qizhen agreed, "Xie Wan has nothing to fear. Now all the power of the court is in my hands. Besides, Mr. Yansheng, you are the Minister of Rites. If Xie Wan dares to be negligent, you can impeach him. I
I will never be soft-hearted!"
Kong Hongxu accepted the order and then said: "Actually... His Majesty's power in Taiwan in the past eight years has mainly relied on Fan Biao and Xie Wan. The two men's forces are intertwined and they are bound to become autocratic ministers. Wei Chen believes that after dispatching the army,
Today, it should be the time for these two to take control of the crane!"
Zhu Qizhen was stunned for a while.
Do you really want to kill Fan Biao and Xie Wan?
It's a bit unbearable.
Kong Hongxu eliminated Zhu Qizhen's hesitation with one sentence: "How can you allow others to snore next to the bed?"
Zhu Qizhen took a deep breath and said, "Then this matter will be arranged by Yan Shenggong. Commander Han, you will allocate manpower from the Huben Guards to cooperate with Yan Shenggong to facilitate this matter. Remember, there can be no mistakes, otherwise these two people will rebel.
We can't bear it."
Han Pingping accepted the decree.
Zhu Qizhen waved his hand, "You go and do your work."
After Han Shuiping and Kong Hongxu exited the Beiwang Pavilion, Zhu Qizhen picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. He came to the front of the Woxin Hall and looked at the sea and sky at the far end of the horizon, laughing silently.
Smiling wildly.
Thanks to Grandpa Huang and his father for shrinking their maritime strategy, I have hope of making a comeback.
Now Huilongying is the strongest navy in the Ming Dynasty.
As long as we seize this advantage, Taiwan will be invincible.
If Mobei and Annan can really hold off Tuanying and the 26th Guards, Huilongying will really hope to attack Fujian, Guangdong, and Zhejiang first, and then attack Huanglong by sea.
Eighteen years!
Zhu Qiyu, Zhu Jianji, do you and your son know how I have lived these eighteen years?
…
…
Han Shuiping and Kong Hongxu walked side by side, passing by the two luxurious mansions on the left and right under the steps of Woxin Palace. Looking at the closed doors, Kong Hongxu smiled and said: "In a few days, this will be the residence of General Han and so-and-so."
Han Shui's eyes were deep, "I'm afraid we won't be here for long."
Kong Hongxu was stunned.
Then I heard Han Shui said: "Has Shenggong Yan never doubted that Shandong is so far from Taiwan, and His Majesty asked me to send someone to pick you up, and there were no accidents all the way south?"
No surprise is the biggest surprise.
Kong Hongxu had no expression on his face and looked at Han Shuiping calmly, "It was General Han who sent someone to bring me to Taiwan. The plan was so perfect. General Han deserves most of the credit. He is indeed His Majesty's most trusted pillar in the army."
Han Pingping laughed and clasped his fists, "Regarding the matter of Xie Wan and Fan Biao, this general will send people to fully support Yan Shenggong. The day the army goes out, it will be the time when these two people will lose their lives. Farewell."
Stride away.
Kong Hongxu looked at Han Shuiping's back with a question mark on his face.
What does Han level mean?
Could it be that Han Shui suspected that he was an undercover agent sent to Taiwan by Prince Zhu Jianji?
joke!
No one in this world hates Zhu Jianji more than himself.
It was impossible for Han Shui to doubt himself.
It's not important anymore.
He is now the Minister of Rites and the Duke Yansheng of Taiwan. With this status alone, he is destined to be a very popular minister around Baozong. He will then wait for the army to go out in three days.
