After killing Annan Zheng, Zhu Cijing felt a little relieved, but he was still a little angry because the culprit was not cleaned up.

With the current national strength of the Ming Dynasty, it is not impossible to deal with the Netherlands. For example, their colonies in Batavia, the Ming Dynasty could definitely easily win them as long as it sent two ace fleets.

However, the great powers have the habit of group fights. Beating the Netherlands is like stabbing a hornet's nest. The great powers of the anti-Habsburg Alliance will definitely flock to them, and the Ming Dynasty will be in trouble.

What should I do? If it doesn’t work, then it’s dark. Zhu Cijing thought of another Zheng family, that is, Zheng Zhilong, the King of Zhennan. This guy used to be a pirate, and he was a pirate under the Dutch. Using him to underestimate the Dutch will definitely have a miraculous effect.

So he issued an edict ordering Zheng Zhilong, the King of Zhennan, to come to Shenglong City to meet the emperor.

Zheng Zhilong is still in charge of the allocation of materials in Siming Mansion. It will not take a day or two to come. Of course, Zhu Cijing cannot do nothing and wait for this guy to come. He still has a lot to deal with.

First of all, we naturally met with Li Shenzong of the Li Dynasty after Annan. Now that Shenglong City has been taken down, the entire Annan has no resistance except the Ruan clan in the south. It is time to incorporate it into the vassal system of the Ming Dynasty.

So, Zhu Cijiu set up a formation in Qianyuan Hall in Annan Imperial City to invite Li Shenzong Li Weiqi to come to see him.

The sudden arrival of the Ming Tian Army was so happy for Li Weiqi. He had been held in his hand by Zheng and became a puppet emperor for more than 20 years. He was worried all day long, afraid that one day Zheng would suddenly kill him. He had thought of asking for help from the Ming Dynasty. However, the entire Shenglong City was under the control of Zheng, and no one dared to risk his life to help him go to the Ming Dynasty for help. Therefore, he could only live in the shadow of Zheng and be honest as a tool for stamping a big seal.

Just a few days ago, a terrifying roar suddenly sounded outside Shenglong City. After the roar lasted for two or three days, it reminded of the shaking shouts of killing again. Then the Ming army rushed into the city and found him.

All this was like a dream. He knew that his hard days were over, because the Ming Dynasty attached the most importance to orthodox inheritance and would never tolerate traitors like the Zheng family. He was Annan's orthodox. The Ming Dynasty would definitely support him to the throne and regain power.

Therefore, he was extremely respectful to His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. As soon as he entered Qianyuan Hall, he quickly stepped forward and kowtowed and said, "My minister Li Weiqi bowed to the emperor."

Zhu Cijiu nodded and asked directly: "Li Weiqi, are you willing to surrender to the Ming Dynasty?"

What is this? Will he test him? Li Weiqi quickly replied respectfully: "Annan has always been a vassal of the Ming Dynasty. The ministers have always admired the emperor's kindness of the Ming Dynasty. Unfortunately, they were forced by the rebel Zheng and did not have the opportunity to express their respect to the Ming Dynasty. Now the emperor comes to rescue the minister himself. The ministers must serve sincerely and never dare to have two hearts."

Zhu Cijing didn't expect that this guy still has the potential of a flatterer. He nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Cao Huachun beside him: "Nian."

Cao Huachun quickly unfolded the "Ming Dynasty's Victims and State Orders" in his hand and started to recite it loudly.

Li Weiqi knelt there, secretly shocked. This seemed to be very different from before, but no matter what, it was better than being a puppet. Otherwise, Daming would come to rescue him, and he still lived a dark house arrest life. He naturally did not dare to object to the "Daming Vatic States Order System".

After Cao Huachun finished reading, Zhu Cijiong said majesticly: "Because the Zheng family of Annan was too disobedient to the Ming Dynasty, they specially demoted Annan to a second-class vassal state. Do you have any objections to Li Weiqi?"

Second-class is second-class, just because there is no military power. The rest is not the same. He already has a deep fear of the army. If there is another traitor like Zheng, wouldn’t he become a puppet again? The army is in the hands of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty would never come to hold him hostage. Thinking of this, he sincerely said: "But the emperor is in charge of everything, and the minister has no objection."

When Zhu Cijing heard this, he finally smiled a little. He said loudly: "Come on, put on the seal and robe."

Immediately, a row of eunuchs came in with plates, and there were seals of the king, python robe, crown, ribbon and other items on them.

Zhu Cijiu stepped forward in person, picked up a crown in the plate, put it on Li Weiqi's head, and said majestic: "I have officially named you the King of Annan, and will be hereditary!"

Li Weiqi was overjoyed and kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "I thank you for your grace, long live my emperor."

If it is an ordinary vassal state, it will be over. However, Annan's situation is special. Li Shenzong is an emperor under house arrest and has never had the opportunity to issue orders in person. I don't know whether Annan's civil and military officials will listen to him.

He sent the Buddha to the west and helped the people and helped them in place. Zhu Cijiu dispatched a thousand royal guards to Li Weiqi to help him take control of the power, and gave up more than half of the Shenglong Imperial City to let him start a dynasty.

The customs of Annan are actually imitated by the Ming Dynasty. They also have imperial examinations, they also have six ministries, they also have cabinets, and they also use memorials. The memorials are written in Chinese characters. Even before the Zheng family came to power, they also had morning dynasties, which was almost a copy of the Ming Dynasty.

Annan has not had a morning court for decades. On this day, countless Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei suddenly spread out from the imperial city and ran to the governments of the civil and military officials in Annan one by one, circulating the decree of the King Shenzong of Annan: The court meeting will be held at the Qianyuan Hall of the imperial city at the time of Mao tomorrow, and all officials in Beijing must not be absent!

If Li Shenzong really sent them to go to the morning court, few people would probably miss him. The problem is the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei. A few days ago, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty dragged countless Zheng family members to the east to behead their heads, which scared them. I heard that the Jinyiwei was even more cruel than the soldiers of the regular army in the Ming Dynasty. If anyone disliked him, they would chop them up directly. He killed and buried him. Who dared to offend such a person!

So, early the next morning, all the civil and military officials from Annan came to Qianyuan Hall, and the Jinyiwei named them one by one, but none of them were absent.

Li Shenzong first asked Li to officially read out the "Ming Dynasty's Victims and State Order System". If there were no lessons from the Zheng family, there would probably be a group of people who would jump out to oppose it, but now, they are all silent and none of them dare to jump out.

Later, Li Shenzong wrote to read out the charges of the Zheng clan colluding with foreign countries and committing rebellion. According to the "Da Ming Law", the nine clans were sentenced to be killed.

It seems that I took off my pants and farted. Is it boring that you recite the crime here?

In fact, otherwise, the emperor cannot kill innocent people and kill nine clans at any time. That is definitely a foolish monarch, a tyrant. Zhu Cijing doesn't want to be a fool or a tyrant, so this crime must be remembered.

Finally, Li Shenzong issued another edict ordering the Ruan family in Guangnan to collect their troops and come to Shenglong City to request surrender.

The morning court ended like this. Perhaps most officials now have no awe of Li Shenzong, but the Ming army will not withdraw immediately. Such morning courts will be held every day, and Li Shenzong will slowly cultivate his confidants. Sooner or later, Annan will completely surrender.
