Chapter 165 Prelude to Forced Palace

Zhu Youjian naturally had long noticed the recent joint operations of the Donglin Party, so he wanted to deal with Zheng Zhilong before a conflict broke out with the Donglin Party.

As long as Zheng Zhilong is willing to support his sea opening policy, he can use Zheng Zhilong's navy to block the coast and make the Southeast smuggling maritime merchants "not enter the sea."

However, Zheng Zhilong is so important that he still has to check and balance him, so Zhu Youjian also specially created a patrol envoy from the southeast, west and northwest.

He planned to appoint Zheng Zhilong as the East China Sea Inspector, Yang Tiansheng as the South China Sea Inspector, Li Kuiqi as the West China Sea Inspector, and Xu Xinsu as the North China Sea Inspector, so that they each manage a sea area, compete with each other, and check and balance each other.

In addition to raising Yang Tiansheng, Li Kuiqi, and Xu Xinsu to balance Zheng Zhilong, Zhu Youjian also planned to use it for use in ancient times.

Zhu Youjian pretended to be concerned Zheng Zhilong and said, "I heard that Zheng Qing married a Japanese woman as his wife and gave birth to an eldest son, living in Japan?"

Zheng Zhilong suddenly felt a basin of cold water pouring down. What does the emperor mean? Do you want me to send the proton to Beijing?

However, Zheng Zhilong is a person with a cold nature. He thinks he is still very young and will have many sons in the future. It is no big deal to send a son to Beijing as a qualifier.

He replied honestly: "Your Majesty, the second wife I married is indeed a Japanese woman. She gave birth to a eldest son, named Zheng Sen, and is four years old this year."

Zhu Youjian said meaningfully: "I'm four years old. Zheng Qing is now an official in the imperial court. It's not the dilemma of being displaced back then. Have you ever thought about taking Zheng Sen back to the Ming Dynasty to raise? After all, as the eldest son of his beloved minister, Zheng Sen grew up in a barbarian land, which is not conducive to the enlightenment and education of his children."

Zheng Zhilong didn't think much and replied: "Your Majesty, I do intend to bring the dog's son back to the Ming Dynasty. Please teach the great scholars in China."

Zhu Youjian nodded and smiled, "Zheng Qing thought so well. Zheng Sen is only four years old this year. If he has a good teacher, he will be a pillar of the Ming Dynasty in the future. If my empress gave birth to the eldest son in the future, Zheng Sen can accompany the prince and study together to study together."

Zheng Zhilong was overjoyed when he heard this. He never expected that his future was already broad enough, but his eldest son Zheng Sen seemed to have a far better future than him.

The eldest son born by the queen was, according to the Ming Dynasty's system of establishing legitimate power, and the tenth day of the Ming Dynasty was the crown prince and the future emperor.

If Sen'er can successfully become the prince's companion, then he will be the prince's most hard-core direct line. According to the emperor and his minister, once the prince ascends the throne in the future, Sen'er's future will definitely be extremely broad. Even if he joins the cabinet and becomes the prime minister, it is not a luxury!

Zheng Zhilong fell to the ground again and said from the bottom of his heart: "I will thank the emperor for his son!"

Zhu Youjian was also very happy. Zheng Sen was the national hero Zheng Chenggong. Although Zheng Chenggong had not achieved the ideal of expelling the Tartars in history, he was one of the strongest warriors in both naval and land wars.

The most important thing is that Zheng Chenggong was loyal to the Ming Dynasty. Even though his father Zheng Zhilong surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Zheng Zhilong was still unmoved and insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty. He was much more at ease when using it than Zheng Zhilong.

Moreover, Zhu Youjian also had an idea. Didn’t Emperor Wu of Han take Huo Qubing with him since childhood and teach him, so as to train Huo Qubing to become a famous general for all ages?

He also wanted to taste the taste of the development of famous generals and train Zheng Chenggong to become an invincible general in the naval battle, so that Emperor Wu of Han would not be more beautiful than before.

...

The capital city, Qian Qianyi’s mansion.

Leading by Han Yu, Zhou Yanru, Huang Daozhou, Wang Shoulu, Ni Yuanlu, Lu Chengyuan and other core members of the Donglin Party visited Qian Qianyi, and the intention was self-evident.

"Brother Mu Yu, I believe you have understood the purpose of my visit. No matter what, you will stand up!" Han Du stared at Qian Qianyi, not allowing Qian Qianyi to avoid it, and said righteously.

Qian Qianyi was as timid as ever and said in a confused manner: "Brother Xiangyun, I really don't understand the purpose of your visit!"

At this time, Qian Qianyi still had to pretend to be stupid. Everyone was stunned. They didn't understand how this guy got the position of leader of Donglin and Wenzong?

Zhou Yanru had been jealous of Qian Qianyi for a long time. He thought that his qualifications and abilities were not inferior to Qian Qianyi, but because his fame was not as good as the other party, he let the other party enter the cabinet first. He only served as the Minister of Rites, which was too much behind the other party.

Therefore, Zhou Yanru said bluntly to Qian Qianyi: "Mr. Qiange should not pretend to be stupid anymore. The fact that the eunuch Zhang Chaozhong slaughtered the officialdom in Xuzhou these days has become known to everyone in the city. I don't believe that Mr. Qiange has never heard of this!"

After being exposed directly by Zhou Yanru, Qian Qianyi said embarrassedly: "It turns out that you are here for this matter. I have indeed heard of Zhang Chaozhong's bloody slaughter of the Xuzhou officialdom. But according to the report from the Jinyiwei, this matter was caused by the ruler of Xuzhou Qian Dejia, and the garrison Zhao Chongwen, who was lawless and voluntarily used the army of the garrison to attack the imperial envoy."

"Absurd!" Han Yu blew his nose and stared, and said indignantly: "Eunuch Party is known to everyone in the world. This must be the eunuch Zhang Chaozhong passing by Xuzhou on his way back to Beijing, intending to blackmail the place and seek bribes from Xuzhou governor Qian Dejia and the garrison Zhao Chongwen. He was so angry that he deliberately framed Qian Dejia and Zhao Chongwen on the charge of making a mistake.

Later, in order to kill people to silence the entire Xuzhou officialdom, Zhang Chaozhong wanted to implicate the entire Xuzhou officialdom, resulting in hundreds of Xuzhou civil and military officials being innocently killed, and 1,700 tribe members were brutally implicated. This is the biggest tragic incident in Xuzhou since Cao Cao slaughtered the city at the end of the Han Dynasty!”

"Not bad!" Wang Shoulu decisively said: "The eunuch party has always been insatiable, and blackmailing the place has always been doing everything he wants. Why is Qian Dejia? What is Zhao Chongwen? What is Xuzhou officials and clan members? He was retaliated against Zhang Chaozhong so crazy. One thousand and seven hundred people in Xuzhou died with their eyes closed. He was staring at us all the time, so that we can rehabilitate them and avenge them!"

"revenge!"

"revenge!"

"revenge!"

Wang Shoulu's righteous remarks were responded to by everyone. Huang Daozhou, Ni Yuanlu, Lu Chengyuan, Yao Ximeng and others raised their arms and shouted "Revenge!"

Faced with the excited Donglin Party colleagues, Qian Qianyi was going to sit on wax this time. Han Yu and others clearly insisted on him to stand up and express his opinion, and would never allow him to be ambiguous.

Qian Qianyi wanted to delay time and coughed lightly, "I just heard about this matter and did not have a deep understanding of the specific matters. Let's do this. I will ask you to see the emperor tomorrow morning and ask what's going on!"

Zhou Yanru shouted, "This is an obvious matter, what else can I ask? We have already discussed it. Mr. Qiange, as a Grand Secretary of Dongge, has the highest fame and status, and official ranks among us. We will contact all officials with Mr. Qiange, asking His Majesty to kill Zhang Chaozhong, and hold a lecture every day to study. The government will be temporarily ruled by Empress Yi'an from behind the curtain. In this way, we will be a model for the world and a wise monarch in the current dynasty."
