In fact, Zhu Youlang understood that Qian Qianyi really wanted to give him a higher evaluation of his past. Even if he did not give him a high hat of "reducing the Qing Dynasty is to restore the Ming Dynasty", it should be based on the fact that he, a literary master, came to join him and gave him a neutral evaluation, such as forgiveing ​​his unfaithfulness, even if he said the previous sentence "punishing the past and preventing the future, curing the disease and saving the people". If you have such an evaluation, whether it is the current position or the name behind him, it is a very convincing weapon.

"I think beautifully! If you don't give me some effort, and want to give you a good review with the support of thousands of students outside the North Gate? Wait, I'm not in a hurry." Zhu Youlang said intimately.

There are three levels of employment for people. The first level is the salary, the second level is the official level, and the third level is the death level. The salary means salary, the second level is the official position, and the third level is faith, which is the most difficult and makes people willing to die. These third levels are not suitable for Qian Qianyi. If you want to use him to work, you have to add a first level, which is the name.

As a literati, he is the most famous, especially as the former leader of the Donglin Party, Qian Qianyi is best at standing on the commanding heights of morality and scolding others. Now, he is stigmatized by traits, just like putting it on fire. What Zhu Youlang needs to do is to let him always roast it on fire. If he performs well, then withdraw the fire. If he performs poorly, he will not withdraw the fire even if he does not add fire.

"Hehehe, I have invented a way of using people, which is very effective for literati in this world. However, this way of using people is useless in the future hundreds of years later. Fame is nothing to the eyes of later generations! As long as success, kings and defeats are successful, what kind of despicable means cannot be used? In fact, truly wise people need fame first and then seek profit. There are only a few people in later generations who can understand this way."

...

After Ma Jixiang left, Chen Zizhuang hurried into the hall and brought Shi Lang a memorial.

Shi Lang reported: "The former minister followed the order and sent his younger brother, Shi Xu, to Kinmen to meet with Zheng Chenggong in the name of filial piety. He spoke highly of Your Majesty's love for talent and urged Zheng to return to the right. However, the King of Zheng looked around and said that he still believed Longwu as the righteous. If he wanted to surrender, he must behead Li Chengdong and must be named king. The younger brother returned helplessly. Now he reported that the Zheng navy of Kinmen was packing his luggage and sent people to collect food and grass. It seemed that he had taken action, but his movements were unclear. Now I am ready. If Zheng has any abnormal movement, he will follow the previous order to suppress him. This report is correct."

After reading it, Zhu Youlang thought for a while and asked Chen Zizhuang: "Jisheng, what are your judgments?"

"Go back to your Majesty, this time the Qing slave used troops and valued Hong Chengchou. This man was the same hometown as Zheng's family. Zheng Zhilong's brothers surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, all of them were written by Hong Chengchou. I heard that when Duoduo killed Zheng Zhilong, Hong Chengchou risked his life to advise him. Obviously he was very clear. If the Zheng family was destroyed, only the Denglai Naval Division could be used on the sea. It was not the opponent of my naval division at all. The sea power would be our superior. Therefore, I believe that Hong Chengchou would definitely try every means to surrender to the Zheng family, so I think that Zheng's abnormal movements would inevitably be unfavorable to our army." Chen Zizhuang obviously had already thought about it after reading this memorial.

"Hong Chengchou will definitely send someone to surrender to the Zheng family, there is no doubt about this. However, I think Zheng family will not be moved by it. It should be noted that when Zheng Zhilong was alive, he dared to cut off his father-son relationship with his father because of the surrender to the Qing Dynasty, let alone his father has been beheaded by the Qing court now?" Zhu Youlang said.

"Your Majesty, if Hong Chengchou pays a large price, such as allowing him to be the king of the three provinces, in the face of such a great temptation, I would not be moved by Zheng Chenggong." Chen Zizhuang said.

"No, never. Although Zheng Chenggong refused to regard our dynasty as the truth, I thought that he would not betray our Ming Dynasty, and no matter how great the temptation was, he would not be able to do so, because he had been fighting for so long. If he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the people and the army would be lost. Besides, his father had just been killed, he would not take such a great risk in public or private." Zhu Youlang shook his head and said.

"Then, what will your Majesty judge Zheng's will do?"

"I think Zheng Chenggong must be a Dutchman from Taiwan."

"Fight Taiwan?"

"Yes, fight Taiwan. I can be sure that he must fight Taiwan. There are two benefits to fighting Taiwan: one is to avoid the difficult choice of either Qing or Ming. Because according to my speculation, the Zheng family and his son have dominated the sea for decades and must have accumulated wealth that is as rich as a country. They are reluctant to take the fate of their family to the court, because so much wealth is a disaster rather than a blessing for their Zheng family. Therefore, their father and son must want to dominate the country, and Taiwan is the best place to go; the other is that there are fewer Dutch people occupying Taiwan, and they are in Taiwan.

The East India Company is the main company, with many merchants and few army. With Zheng Chenggong's strength, it is not difficult to win one battle. Now that our dynasty is about to start a war with the Qing slave, no one cares about him. He can use this period of time to manage Taiwan. Third, after occupying Taiwan, given his close relationship with Japan, he will definitely unite with Japan in the east and establish a strong naval force on the sea and occupy the sea route. In the future, no matter whether I win or the enemy wins, he will have a certain bargaining chip in his hand. Taking the Zheng family's Yongzhen Taiwan should be his final choice."

"Hiss... Your Majesty, if Zheng Chenggong thinks this way, his ambition is quite good. I suggest that Shi Lang quickly annihilate it so as not to lose the situation in the future."

"No. Jisheng, Zheng Chenggong's cunning place is here. He expected that I would not touch him, so he thought so. Think about it, although he refused to surrender to me, he was under the banner of Longwu, and I was in Longwu. If I beat him, wouldn't I have a reputation of fratricidality? Furthermore, when the Qing soldiers invaded the territory, I could only deal with the Qing soldiers first, so where would I have the energy to deal with him? - Zheng Chenggong, it's not simple, the time he chose is quite knowledgeable."

"Then, your majesty, how can you reply to Shi Lang?"

"Eight hundred lijia ordered Shi Lang to be sentenced to Taiwan. If Zheng Chenggong's troops were sent to Taiwan, don't stop them. Not only should they stop them, but they also ordered people to send him a ship of grenade funding."

"Your Majesty, no. If you don't hit him, it's enough for him. Why do you still need to fund him? Our grenades are not too surplus."

"Hahaha, Jisheng, don't worry about this ship of grenades. With this ship of grenades, let him fight me well. If you fight the Dutch devils in one battle, they will never dare to look east again. As for Taiwan, let Zheng Chenggong guard me well and wait until I destroy the Qing slaves, and then free up his hands to deal with him. In short, Taiwan must be included in my Ming Dynasty and will never let it be independent of my Ming Dynasty."

"Yes, I obey the order. Your Majesty, if Zheng really goes to fight Taiwan, the Shi Lang Navy will have no worries at all, and we will have a more mobile power."

"Yes. It is a mobile force and a strategic reserve team. This is also a gift Zheng Chenggong gave me."
