(Thank you for your "very troublesome" monthly ticket!)

The matter was almost the same as Lu Daqi's estimate. Someone really wanted to kill Zhu Youlang in secret. Lu Daqi's guards caught the assassins who assassins who assassins several times. Although these assassins committed suicide after being caught, they could think clearly about this kind of thing. It must have been sent by the Jinyiwei in the city.

Lu Daqi thought that this was not a solution. There were thousands of thieves who were thieves who were thieves who were thieves who were thieves who were thieves who were thieves who were thieves. His guards were only more than 200, and he was inevitably a little negligent after a long time. Lu Daqi thought about it and called Qianhu, the Jinyiwei and Dongchang Bantou in Kunming City. These two guys were local snakes from Kunming. The assassins he had in the previous few times must have been sent by them.

The Qianhu of Jinyiwei in Kunming is named Zhao Bingjun, who is from Guangdong and is the nephew of Zhao Mengguan, the Fushishi in the South Town of Jinyiwei. The big head of the East Factory is called Qi Santai, who was sent by Li Chengen from Nanjing.

Lu Daqi was the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and was in charge of the military and political power of the two provinces. The factory guards were all under the management of the Governor's Office on the surface, so the Governor had an order, so the two had to come.

The factory guards were both military positions, and the serious ones were under the jurisdiction of the governor, so the two of them all knelt on one knee when they came into the house.

Lu Daqi has always hated such people in the factory guards, so he naturally had no good expression on them. He nodded and ordered the two of them to stand up, but there was no seat.

Seeing that the governor didn't like him, Zhao Bingjun had no choice but to ask first: "Dare you ask what's wrong with the magistrate of the National Taiwan University summoning me?"

"Do you know that King Gui lives in Wuhua Mountain Palace now?" Although Lu Daqi is stupid, he is not stupid. He knows that he and King Gui can do whatever he says, but he must not call Zhu Youlang the Majesty in front of these factory guards. These factory guards are all the emperor's eyes and ears. It would be bad for him if it is passed to the emperor.

Zhao Bingjun and Qi Santai heard Lu Daqi's question and quickly said, "I know!" Isn't this nonsense? As a factory guard, can you not know about Zhu Youlang's arrest?

Lu Daqi nodded and continued, "Okay, as long as you know, although King Gui has abdicated, he is still King Gui personally appointed by Emperor Hongguang back then. If there is any problem with his safety, will your factory guards have to pay joint and several liability?"

As an old official, Lu Daqi naturally knew how to speak. This sentence came to the fatal point of the factory guards. Although Zhu Youlang and Zhu Hongsan were not in the way, you Jinyiwei and the Dongchang probably had an emperor's secret order to kill Zhu Youlang, but don't forget that Zhu Youlang is now the King of Gui. The title of King of Gui was named by Emperor Hongguang Zhu Yousong, the only emperor recognized by Zhu Hongsan. As a slave to the royal family, if there is any problem with your master, you can escape?

Lu Daqi's words really touched the hearts of Zhao and Qi. They really did not have the emperor's clear order to kill Zhu Youlang as long as they caught Zhu Youlang and immediately killed him. However, when Zhu Hongsan left Guizhou, he issued an order to the Jinyiwei in Yunnan and Guizhou. The first half said that as long as Zhu Youlang was caught, he would be severely punished, but the second half said that Zhu Youlang was my relative and should take good care of him. This inconsistency and ambiguous order was the most troublesome. You said that the emperor wanted to kill Zhu Youlang and said that the emperor was nostalgic and had to protect Zhu Youlang. So Zhao Bingjun sent someone to assassinate him after he knew that Zhu Youlang had arrived in Kunming. In this way, even if he understood the wrong order, he could still blame the crime to outsiders.

So today, Zhao Bingjun and Qi Santai were all moved when they heard Lu Daqi say this. Yes! The emperor did not clearly say what to do. Now Zhu Youlang is King Gui. If the prince has problems in his own land, these slaves will definitely be in trouble.

Zhao Bingjun quickly bowed and said, "Please rest assured, Master of the Taiwan Affairs Bureau. My subordinates know the severity of the matter. They will definitely send the Jinyiwei to protect His Highness Gui!" Qi Santai was not stupid either, and he quickly promised to send people to protect Zhu Youlang.

Playing with the method, these two people were Lu Daqi's opponents. Seeing that his goal was achieved, Lu Daqi smiled and waved his hand to let the two go out.

Zhao Bingjun, who left the Governor's Office, whispered to Qi Santai: "Brother Qi, what do you think we should do?"

The factory guards were originally incompatible. Qi Santai smiled when he heard Zhao Bingjun's question, "We are not in charge of your Jinyiwei's affairs in the East Factory. Brothers say goodbye!"

Zhao Bingjun looked at Qi Santai who was leaving and cursed in his heart: You eunuch party, what's the point of relying on those dead eunuchs? But I guess you don't dare to send a killer anymore. I think you should also write a letter to your uncle to see what to do next!

In this way, Lu Daqi used a small trick to protect Zhu Youlang's safety, and Zhu Youlang lived in the Kunming Palace with peace of mind, waiting for Beijing to make arrangements for him.

General Zhu Hongsan was very happy after reading the documents of the war. He is now using troops everywhere in the northwest, northeast, Fujian and southwest. The number of troops used in the southwest Yunnan and Guizhou is the least, but it spends the most money, because the roads in Yunnan and Guizhou are difficult to travel, and the local people are very poor, and all supplies must be transported from Guangdong and Huguang. Of course, economic reasons are not the main reason. Zhu Youlang's orthodox identity is the most troublesome thing about Zhu Hongsan.

Taiwan is Zheng Chenggong's territory opposite Fujian. The Zheng family still has more than 200,000 troops and thousands of ships of all sizes, and Zheng Chenggong believed Zhu Youlang as the emperor. Now that Zhu Youlang is dealt with, Zheng Chenggong's separatist side is no longer legal, and he can take action to deal with the power of the Zheng family.

There is another great benefit to solving Zhu Youlang, that is, Zhu Hongsan can finally calm down and carry out the Indian strategy. Due to the involvement of the domestic war, Wang Jinbao in Luzon only had a mere division of troops and not a few warships. This kind of force can only protect himself and cannot deal with the Dutch in Batavia. However, if he does not defeat the Dutch, he cannot enter the Indian Ocean, so he can only watch the British turn India into a jewel in the crown of the British king.

But now Zhu Youlang has solved the problem, and Zhou Yu's 80,000 men can go forward to the Bay of Bengal, which is less than 500 miles away from India's most prosperous Ganges Delta, and can also capture the Dutch's retreat. As long as Batavia is taken down, the entire Indian Ocean will be the inner lake of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the Indian subcontinent will become the granary of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty can replace Britain as the Empire of the Sun and the Sun will not set.

Zhu Hongsan was overjoyed when he looked at the military newspaper. If it weren't for the victory of the royal family and the same family, Zhu Hongsan would have been going to the Taimiao to announce his ancestors.

"Okay, Chen Aiqing, please work hard. Go out and notify all the cabinet ministers and military aircraft of the Military Affairs Bureau to come to the Qianqing Palace for a meeting!" Zhu Hongsanyi was a little overjoyed and wanted to find everyone to be happy.

It is sunset now, and it is already dark in winter. When everyone arrives, it is already dark, and the Qianqing Palace has already put up a lamp. Zhu Hongsan comes from later generations and cannot stand the most. The dim lights at night, so there is no savings in lighting. Dozens of large butter wax lit on the front and back of the Qianqing Palace, making the entire hall brightly lit.

The seven cabinet masters in the cabinet and the five military aircraft from the Military Affairs Office arrived. Zhu Hongsan said excitedly: "Just news came from the southwest just now. Gui Ni Zhu Youlang was finally captured. I am here today to come to everyone. One is to be happy, and the other is to discuss how to reward the meritorious soldiers!"

The war in the southwest delayed four years. Not only did it lose troops at the beginning, but it also brought a prince Li Chengdong. Now Zhu Hongsan accounts for the whole country, and the annual tax reaches 30 million silver dollars. Although it is not as high as 160 million jin at the peak of the Northern Song Dynasty, it is much stronger than the more than 3 million taels of the Ming Dynasty. However, the country now has money, but it uses troops everywhere. The annual expenditure of the northwest is 3 million silver dollars, and the smaller the northeast is 2 million silver dollars. Fujian is only a stalemate with Zheng Chenggong, and only needs more than one million a year. The most expensive one is the southwest, which costs five million silver dollars a year. You should know that Zhou Yu's entire army has only 80,000 people, and half of these soldiers are logistics supply troops, and the real combat troops are only a little more than 40,000.

The national fiscal revenue is 30 million silver dollars every year, and one-third of the war will be spent. As the butler, Ma Mingyuan has long talked about the financial difficulties to Zhu Hongsan. Now, when he heard that the war in the southwest ended, he didn't have to spend the biggest sum of money. Ma Mingyuan was really happy from his heart.

Ma Mingyuan stood up and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, the war in the southwest has been delayed for a long time, and the national finances are in short supply. Now it's finally gone. Chen Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance can also have a good sleep!"

Tong Yangjia was in charge of military affairs. It was rare that he did not object to Ma Mingyuan at this time, but stood up and echoed: "The Chief Superintendent is right, this is a great joy! Your Majesty, I believe that the meritorious soldiers should be rewarded!"

The other cabinet masters did not want to anger the emperor in this excitement, and they all stood up to praise him. Only one person was very dissatisfied with him. This person was Qu Shizi, the new cabinet master.

After Jiang Yueguang reached an agreement with the Guangdong Party, Ma Mingyuan impeached him without using Ma Mingyuan to impeach him and wrote a letter to go home to retire. After all, Jiang Yueguang was already seventy years old and his energy and physical strength were really not up to standard. Emperor Zhu Hongsan originally wanted to replace Jiang Yueguang with Qu Shiguang, so he delayed it three times and agreed to Jiang Yueguang's resignation. In this way, the new governor of Liangjiang Qu Shiguang was promoted to the cabinet master for a day, and replaced Jiang Yueguang's position, responsible for the Ministry of Rites, the Censorate and the Censorate of the Department of Rites.

Today, Qu Shishi received the imperial edict and entered the palace. He originally thought that something big happened to the country, but he didn't expect that the war in the southwest would have resulted, and his old master Zhu Youlang was captured.

Although Qu Shisi is a student of Qian Qianyi, unlike his teacher, Qian Qianyi has been persecuted many times in his life, so he is calm and to put it bluntly, he is a little cowardly. But Qu Shisi is different. When Qu Shisi was young, his teacher was awesome and he passed the Jinshi early, so he developed a very arrogant and even a little stubborn. From Qu Shisi's experience when he was young, he could see that Qian Qianyi was persecuted by Zhou Yanru and lost his official position. Qu Shisi, who was still a clerk, dared to write a letter to scold Zhou Yanru, which led to Qu Shisi and his teacher losing their official position and returning home to retire.
