Buried alive in the Qing Dynasty

Both of them frowned tightly, as if they were thinking hard.

Suddenly, Zheng Jing stopped, turned around slowly, looked at the two behind him, and seemed to be asking for their opinions.

Feng Xifan spoke first: "Your Majesty, if we can ensure that these six Grand Scholars are all ours, that would be enough, but four of them were nominally recommended by Qiu Hui and Chen Shangchuan..."

Zheng Jing didn't comment, and looked at Chen Yonghua again, and Chen Yonghua said: "My lord, the sugar medicine grenade hammer has been successfully trial-produced!

In addition, Jiang Sheng just sent an urgent report... The Tartar Emperor sent Shi Lang to Fujian as the Admiral of the Navy, and also asked Fan Chengmo to come to Fujian as the Governor! "

When Zheng Jing heard that these two people were coming, his expression became serious. He looked at Chen Yonghua, as if he was waiting for his suggestion.

"Your Majesty," Chen Yonghua said, "it doesn't matter how many great scholars we can recommend... There is only one thing that really matters now, and that is the two prefectures of Zhangzhou and Quanzhou!"

Zheng Jing looked at Chen Yonghua, his face uncertain, "Is it really possible?"

Chen Yonghua nodded, and said: "As long as Shang Kexi is defeated in Guangdong, our chance will come! I suggest to gather the army immediately, and then smuggle them to Xiamen Island to wait for the opportunity!"

"What about the number of undergraduates?"

Chen Yonghua shook his head and said: "This matter is not important, let them go!"

Zheng Jing thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay then. If that's the case...you will go to Xiamen Island to preside over the overall situation, and let Liu Guoxuan also lead the elite soldiers to Xiamen by sea!" Zheng Jing, the third generation of Zheng Jiafu, gritted his teeth when he said this , "When the time is right, Gu will also go to Xiamen Island... The rise and fall of my Zheng family will be fought here!"

Chapter 093

"Be taller, be taller! Mom, please, you old bastard, you are blind, you hung up crookedly!"

In the early morning of the first day of the 11th year of Kangxi, Emperor Shunzhi's good Alda, Emperor Kangxi's uncle Shang, and Shang Zhixin, the number one "cier son" in Guangdong, were standing with their sleeves on the steps outside the Nine Halls of Pingnan Palace.At the same time, he directed several servants of the feudal clan to hang lanterns, set up barriers, and wrap colored strips around trees.While pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, it is gratifying to be angry at his unfilial father!

Originally, Shang Zhixin had his own palace in Guangzhou, which was the Jingnan Palace built by the original King of Jingnan, Geng Jimao, and Shang Kexi when they were in Guangzhou together.Later, Geng Jimao left and went to Fujian, and the good palace gave Shunzhi the letter of his good I Da Shang.

However, when Shi Zixin was in Beijing, eating, drinking and having fun with Shunzhi all day long, his Shizi Mansion in Guangzhou could only be empty.

But Shang Kexi is such a filial father!Even if Shang Zhixin is not in Guangzhou, his house is renovated every year, which is better than Shang Kexi's own Pingnan Palace.

But this filial father has recently turned bad, becoming an unfilial father!Not only took Shang Zhixin's military power, but also deliberately abolished Shang Zhixin's son and let Shang Zhixiao take over. Do you think Shang Zhixin can't be angry?

It seems that such a thing as abolishing the son never happened after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs.Shang Kexi dared to think about this, this is too unfilial!

And who is Shang Zhixin?He is my father!He is the good brother of the late Emperor Shunzhi, and the good uncle of Emperor Kangxi, so he can be discarded?

That is to say, the late emperor is gone, and the good brother of the late emperor has no one to protect, otherwise Shang Kexi would not dare to abolish Shang Zhixin even if he abolished himself!

In addition, Shang Zhixin felt that he was very loyal to the Qing Dynasty... In order to prevent the treacherous officials in the court from fooling the emperor into cutting the feudal clan and causing chaos in the world, he really worked hard and almost died.

So Shang Kexi wanted to abolish him, not only because he was unfilial, but also because he was disloyal.Can this unfaithful and unfilial father still want it?

It's a pity that Shang Zhixin didn't have an army capable of eliminating harm for the country, so he could only come to Shang Kexi's house on New Year's Eve to vent his anger by cursing a few words.

While Shang Zhixin scolded his father outside, his unfilial father Shang Kexi was in Jiujian Hall with his second son Shang Zhixiao, his thirteenth daughter Shang Shuying, military advisor Jin Guang, governor of Guangdong and Guangxi Jin Guangzu, and governor of Guangdong Liu Bingquan, Together, they were discussing important matters related to the survival of the Pingnan Palace - how to eliminate the third prince Zhu and avoid moving to Yunnan.

These seem to be two things at first glance, but they are actually the same thing!

After Shang Kexi learned that Emperor Kangxi was going to let him go to Yunnan to endure hardship and poverty, he immediately went around through his sons Shang Zhidian and Shang Zhijie who stayed in Beijing as hostages. After spending a lot of money, he finally got through to the university. The way of Shi Suo Etu.

Shang Zhidian also got a quasi-letter from Emperor Kangxi-as long as the third prince Zhu and the third grandson of Zhu can be wiped out, there will be no matter of moving the domain.

After receiving the letter of approval, Shang Kexi's enthusiasm for eliminating the third prince suddenly became extremely high.Not only did he call his son Shang Zhixiao, who was leading the army at the front, back to Guangzhou for face-to-face instruction, but he also called his 20-year-old daughter, Mrs. Shang Shuying from Xushun Gongfu, back to Guangzhou to celebrate the New Year.

Shang Kexi wanted to take this opportunity to learn about the real situation in Chaozhou Mansion from his own daughter.After all, Chaozhou Mansion is the site jointly defended by Duke Xushun's Mansion and Liu Jinzhong, the commander-in-chief of Chaozhen, and Shang Shuying, a Kefu girl, has first-hand information.

Neither Jin Guangzu, governor of Guangdong, nor Liu Bingquan, governor of Guangdong, wanted to exchange Shang Kexi for Wu Sangui.When Wu Sangui was still a loyal minister of Ming Dynasty, they were already great slaves.How can this slave generation be compared to Wu Sangui?How could he lay hands on Wu Sangui, a junior among slaves?

Moreover, although Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi, Geng Jimao and his son are called San Francisco together.But his monk, Geng Erwang, Kong Youde who was beaten to death by Li Dingguo, and Duke Xushun's Shen family are not all the same.

Wu Sangui was from the Guan Ning Army, and Kong, Shang, Geng, and Shen were all from Dongjiang Town.The Guanning Army and the Dongjiang Army were deadly rivals in the Ming Dynasty.Wasn't Mao Wenlong, the boss of the Dongjiang Army, killed by Yuan Chonghuan, the supervisor of the Guanning Army?

Later, Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming rebelled in Shandong, and they were once prosperous, but they were also driven away by Wu Sangui's father Wu Xiang.

As for the group of Chen Hanjun who took refuge in the Qing Dynasty earlier than Sanshun Wang Yishungong, they naturally looked down on Wu Sangui even more.

Wu Sangui, a junior among the slaves, turned to the Qing Dynasty because he was desperate, so why should he be a feudal lord?Now let him come to Guangdong, which is very rich... If he wants to become the vassal king of Guangdong, can senior Han army slaves like Jin Guangzu and Liu Bingquan come to Guangdong to make money like before?

In addition, Jin Guangzu and Liu Bingquan also knew that Guangdong's military potential was far greater than Yunnan's—more people, more money, more food, and it was also on the seashore, so it could trade with foreigners to import firearms and gunpowder.

If this really made Wu Sangui come to Guangdong, even if he didn't rebel in the future, sooner or later he would develop a tendency to never let go!

Therefore, Jin Guangzu, Liu Bingquan and other loyal servants of the Chen Han army mostly did not want to exchange Shang Kexi for Wu Sangui.So early this morning, Jin Guangzu and Liu Bingquan came to Pingnan Palace together on the pretext of celebrating the new year, and wanted to discuss with Pingnan King how to mess up the matter of changing towns and domains.

While several people were discussing in a hurry, Shang Zhixin's voice came from outside the Nine Halls.

Hearing Shang Zhixin scolding "the old bastard is blind", several people in the Nine Halls stopped talking, and all looked at Shang Kexi in a daze.

Shang Kexi's face was also ashen-black. He has been the king for so many years, but now he is angry with this rebellious son, can he not be angry?

However, if the fire is big, the fire is big, but it can't break out.Because Shang Zhixin is still the Duke of Ida now... the Ida of the late emperor, the uncle Gan today, the slaves are still there!Can't you just scold Shang Kexi?Unless Emperor Kangxi nodded in agreement, Shang Kexi would be committing the following crime if he dared to kill Shang Zhixin!

So he could only endure the scolding and continue to discuss matters.

Shang Kexi frowned, and said: "A few days ago, the residence newspaper said that the emperor had appointed Shi Lang as the admiral of the Fujian Navy, and ordered Shi Lang to rebuild the Fujian Navy, and cooperate with the imperial minister, Mr. Mi, to wipe out the rebels... It’s impossible for a naval division to have one or two years! Could it be that the emperor wants to be cautious and slow down the suppression?”

Shang Zhixiao saw that I was pretending to be deaf and dumb, so he pretended he didn't hear his elder brother's scolding, so he could only curse inwardly: "You old bastard is not only blind, but also deaf!"

Then he could only turn his mind back to the military affairs of exterminating the father and son of the third prince Zhu.

Shang Zhixiao sighed, and said to a certain blind and deaf old bastard: "Ama, when my child left Mianhu village, I also heard from Master Mi that the emperor had already issued an order for him to proceed slowly. Before the army is assembled, you don't have to force yourself to attack, lest you be taken advantage of by thieves."

Shang Kexi sighed: "The emperor is wise after all! With such a calm schedule, it's only a matter of time to break the thief. What should we do? Can we wait? The emperor said to give us a chance, but there is no time limit..."

He thought for a while, and then said: "Besides, Zhu San and his gang of rebels are too weird, how did they become so big overnight?"

He turned his head to look at Shang Shuying, who was fat and fat, with a blessed face, loved by the people of Chaozhou and honored as "Kefuying", and asked: "Shuying, you have been in Chaozhou for a long time, how much do you know about Zhu San?" The situation of the party? Especially the military adviser Zhuge, if you know anything, tell me."

As soon as Shang Kexi mentioned Zhuge's military adviser, Shang Shuying's anger grew, "That's a big trickster who sells divination, and has a crow's mouth that suits people. Back then, when my daughter married into Duke Xushun's mansion, He set up a stall at Nanxi Bridge to sell hangs, calling himself Sanhezi.

When his daughter crossed the Nanxi Bridge, he took care of his business and let him forget it.He didn't say nice things, he actually cursed his daughter as a lone star, Kefu, Kezi, Kefu!Hmph, my daughter is getting married... Isn't he talking nonsense? "

Shang Zhixiao frowned when he heard this, "Sister, aren't my brother-in-law and my brother-in-law's two bastards... all gone?"

As he spoke, he turned to look at his father, Shang Kexi—Kefu, Kezi, Keda!Husband and son are gone, the next one is your old man?How about your old man give me the throne, and then you go to Beijing to hide?

"What are you looking at?" Shang Kexi glared at his son, "I'm dying!"

At this moment, the closed gate of Jiujian Hall was suddenly knocked open by someone.

When everyone looked at the gate, they saw Shang Zhixin, who was still "swearing at his father" outside just now, broke in, with the waist knife given to him by Emperor Shunzhi hanging in his waist, and a musket given to him by the Portuguese!

Shang Kexi saw his son like this, and thought of his daughter's fate of "Ke Dae", he became frightened immediately, and hurriedly said to Shang Zhi: "I, I Da Gong, don't be impulsive, and don't believe the nonsense of outsiders, isn't it true, Amma?" It will abolish your position as the son of the world..."

Shang Zhixin seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and after a while he said: "Ama, Zu Zeqing brought Wu Sangui's military advisor Liu Xuanchu to give you New Year greetings."

Chapter 094: The Yunnan Real Estate Tour is Here!

Shang Zhixin didn't come to kill his unfilial father...he's not crazy yet!

He went to Beijing as a hostage at the age of 19 and was released just this year. He has no foundation in Guangdong.If he really killed his father, he wouldn't be able to handle the quarrel with his younger brothers who had been leading troops in Guangdong all the year round.

In fact, he just had a mouthful, and left after cursing.But just arrived at the gate of the palace, and met Zu Zeqing who came to pay New Year's greetings.

Zu Zeqing didn't come alone this time, he also brought Wu Sangui's military advisor Liu Xuanchu with him.

Moreover, Liu Xuanchu also claimed to represent Wu Sangui, and brought some local products from Yunnan to Shang Kexi to celebrate the New Year.So Shang Zhixin brought them into the Pingnan Palace, and now they are waiting outside the Nine Halls.

Hearing that Liu Xuanchu came to pay New Year's greetings, Shang Kexi immediately became angry, "Damn it! This is a fucking weasel giving New Year's greetings to chickens... No, this is not here to pay New Year's greetings, this is to see the house!"

When Shang Kexi said this, the faces of the two brothers Shang Zhixin and Shang Zhixiao also changed.

"Unfilial father" is right!That Liu Xuanchu came to see the house, he came to stand in front of Wu Sangui, and he was going to take over Shang Kexi's palace of Monk Zhixin!

It's really maddening to choose the day of the New Year's Eve!

But the breath returns to the breath, but Shang Kexi still has to hold his nose and go outside the Nine Halls to greet him.Why is he also the representative of Wu Sangui!And there is Zu Zeqing too!This guy is General Gao Lei, with four to five thousand green battalion soldiers under his command, and they are all veterans of Guan Ning's ancestral army. His combat effectiveness is quite impressive!

But Shang Kexi went out of the nine palaces, but saw the scene that almost made him faint - that Zu Zeqing didn't wait outside the palace obediently, but led a little old man around the yard Woolen cloth!And while wandering around, he was introducing him, looking like a real estate buyer.

"Military Master, take a look... This hall is comparable to the Yin'an Hall in Wuhua Mountain, isn't it? Although it may not be as big as the Yin'an Hall, the materials are good! Whether it is stone or wood, they are all the best! It was also carefully crafted and meticulously carved, not sloppy at all, and it took more than ten years of hard work to complete it. And the location is good, the city of Guangzhou is so prosperous and lively, it is not worse than Beijing city!"

After hearing Zu Zeqing's words, Shang Kexi, Shang Zhixin, and Shang Zhixiao's father and son could not wait to cry in their arms - the super mansion in Yuexiu District of Guangzhou City is the kind where you can run horses in the yard and row boats in the pool .And there are two big houses!It is about to be replaced with a house on Wuhua Mountain in Kunming, what a loss!

Moreover, the properties of the Pingnan Palace are not only the two palaces, but also other courtyards, vassal estates, and the Xiangshan Commercial Market that does business with the Portuguese in Macau... Oh, and there are countless shops in the city of Guangzhou. All have to go to Wu Sangui.

Although Wu Sangui will use Yunnan's industry to compensate them, how can Yunnan's industry compare with Guangdong's industry?

Just when Shang Kexi, Shang Zhixin, and Shang Zhixiao were about to cry, Zu Zeqing and Liu Xuanchu had already found out that the three of them had come out to greet them, so they ran over to pay their respects together.

"Slave Zu Zeqing has met the prince, the eldest son, and the second prince!"

"The humble Liu Xuanchu sees the prince, the eldest son, and the second prince..."

These two people are really not kind people. They knew that they were in a bad mood, but when they met, they looked like they were smiling from ear to ear.

Shang Kexi can't wait to go up and slap them all by himself!

But when he thought of Wu Sangui's murderous face and the four or five thousand elite soldiers under Zu Zeqing's command, he still held back.

"Let's get back together!" Shang Kexi looked at Liu Xuanchu again with a livid face, and said in a calm voice, "You are Mr. Liu, King Pingxi's military advisor? I have admired you for a long time!"

"My lord, I'm not a military advisor. I'm just the manager of a Taiwan my lord sent to Guangdong to purchase grain. I also brought a letter to my lord by the way, and I also brought some local products from Yunnan to you for New Year's greetings, lord."

"The manager of the grain table?" Shang Zhixin was already angry, "What's going on? Why did the grain table of your Pingxi Palace come to Guangdong? Don't tell me you don't have any food to buy in Yunnan?"

"My lord," Liu Xuanchu said with a surprised expression, "Don't you know that the emperor is planning to let my prince come to Guangdong, and let you and your ama move to Yunnan?"

Shang Zhixin's face turned livid, "This matter has not yet been decided! Is he, Wu Sangui, too happy?"

Zu Zeqing, who was on the side, looked surprised when he heard this, and blurted out: "How can it be undecided? The emperor's letter to my cousin has been agreed. After Guangdong, my cousin will say it." never mind……"

"Ahem..." Liu Xuanchu coughed twice, Zu Zeqing quickly closed his mouth and said nothing.

But he didn't say anything, but Shang Kexi, Shang Zhixin, Shang Zhixiao and his father and son all "understood"—Wu Sangui had received a letter from Emperor Kangxi!

There were some "secret" means of communication between the emperor and his ministers in the Qing Dynasty. The courtiers could pass the papers to the emperor, post them, or send someone to Beijing to hand them over to the guards—the guards were outside the gate of Taihe. In addition to guarding the door, there is also a special person there to collect the booklets.

The emperor, on the other hand, could send secret decrees directly to officials by sending letters and decrees.

Wu Sangui now sent Liu Xuanchu to Guangdong to open the Liangtai Yamen, needless to say, he must have obtained the edict of Emperor Kangxi!Otherwise, he wouldn't be so anxious!

And although Shang Zhidian got the words from Kangxi...but the words are unsubstantiated, and the words can't be compared with the letter sent in black and white!

Therefore, the emperor did not give up the decision to replace Shang and Wu, and did not even slow down the steps.

The so-called giving Pingnan Palace a chance is time-limited, and the time is tight!

Liu Xuanchu saw that Shang Kexi, Shang Zhixin, and Shang Zhixiao were ashen-faced, and of course he was proud of himself, and said with a smile, "My lord, should you also send grain platforms to Yunnan? Yunnan is not like Guangdong, with less flat land and more mountainous land. , the only flat land is mostly controlled by chieftains, and it is difficult for outsiders to clean up when they enter, so it is better to prepare more food."

After Shang Kexi heard this, his heart was so cold, he felt disheartened, he sighed and said: "I'm getting old, I won't go to Yunnan anymore... Wait until I replace the emperor After killing the three rebels, the third prince Zhu and the third grandson Zhu, the old man will go up to the emperor and ask himself to withdraw from the feudal domain and go to his hometown in Liaodong to take care of him."

After finishing speaking, Shang Kexi ignored Zu Zeqing and Liu Xuanchu, turned around and walked slowly into the Jiujian Hall.

The two brothers, Shang Zhixin and Shang Zhixiao, looked at this time and gave up the past. They turned around together, supported their father, and went to the nine halls. They really looked like a kind father and a filial son.

……

On the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year, in the Buddhist hall of Prince Pingnan's mansion, King Pingnan was so happy that he did not go to drink with his servants during the New Year, but hid in the Buddhist hall with his two sons and a daughter to chant Amitabha.

I don't know how long I read it, but finally got tired of it, sighed, and said to the three children behind me in a low voice: "Mom, what a fool! The surname Wu is too deceitful... I haven't sent troops yet, he just I'm anxious to come to take over the offer, do you really think that Lao Tzu's Pingnan Palace is full of trash?"

"Ama, why don't you fight with Zhu!"

This time it was Shang Zhixin who spoke - he had always advocated raising the bandits before, and raising the third prince Zhu, the bandits so that they can support themselves.

But now that he was forced by Kangxi and Wu Sangui, he also knew that he was wrong, and there was no way for San Francisco to advance and retreat together!

Because Guangdong and Fujian in the hands of King Pingnan and King Jingnan are really good places in the world compared to Yunnan in the hands of King Pingxi!

Therefore, once Emperor Kangxi's policy of "transferring feudal domains and swapping" came out, the Pingnan and Pingxi feudal clans would have to bite dogs.

Shang Kexi snorted, and asked: "If our Pingnan Palace mobilizes the whole army, how many troops can we pull out?"

Shang Zhixiao replied: "Ama, we have 9000 bannermen and 2 green battalion soldiers, a total of [-] people. However, there are still many strong men who can join the army among the bannermen and banner slaves under our vassal. .If all of them are pulled out, counting the green battalion soldiers, there can be [-] to [-] troops!"

Shang Kexi asked again: "Girl, where is your family?"

"Ama," Shang Shuying said, "Duke Xushun's mansion has five assistant leaders. We lost a small two hundred before, but now we have made up for it. If you want to call up the strong men under the vassal, there are still three thousand elites.

In addition, there are more than 3000 people under Liu Jinzhong, and more than 1000 people left by Rao Ping and Wu Liuqi... If you count their troops, the Duke Xushun's mansion can dispatch no less than [-] troops. "

Shang Kexi nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Guys like Yan Ziming, Zhang Guoxun, Miao Zhixiu, and Wang Guodong also have to be sent out to me! In addition to supervising and bidding, there are fifty thousand troops!"

"It's a sure win!" Shang Zhi said filially, "Ama, don't worry, there are [-] troops, and my son will definitely take the heads of the third prince and grandson of Zhu for you!"

Shang Kexi glanced at his son, and said in a low voice: "I personally sent troops... I went to Mianhu village to sit in town and watch those people below fight!"
