Zhu Yuanzhang was all alone on the imperial chariot. Hearing the noise in the prince's carriage, he felt extremely sore.
"Grandma, so many brats are back, and I don't know if one of them will come over to accompany my old father." Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the car behind him, wishing he could catch one of them.
But he also knew that he probably didn't have the face to yell at his son. Alas, let's go through this battle first...
At this time, Liu Ying knocked on the car door outside.
"Come up." Zhu Yuanzhang sat upright and smoothed his sleeves.
"Your Majesty." After Liu Ying came up, he knelt down and reported: "The Marquis of Jiangxia has come to report that after the Mingjiao rebels were annihilated, the Huai'an Guard and the Dahe Guard Navy have returned and will arrive at Hulukou, Sizhou the day after tomorrow. Please give the Emperor an order to annihilate them."
.”
Zhu Yuanzhang did not bluff Yu Tongyuan, he indeed transferred the Fujian and Guangdong navy.
Although Boss Zhu didn't pay much attention to the Mingjiao, the Chaohu Gang has always been a worry for him. Yu Tongyuan and the others guessed right. Zhu Yuanzhang killed Liao Yongzhong and the whole country cracked down on illegal salt trafficking. The next step was to attack them. This is a set
Obvious combo punch.
Boss Zhu is extremely good at espionage, so how could he not have an informant in the Chaohu Gang? In fact, the entire Chaohu Gang's middle and high-level officials have let him infiltrate him into a sieve, and have been one-way transparent to him for a long time.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang had long known that the top leaders of the Chaohu Gang had the idea of escape, and had recently been in frequent contact with the Mingjiao.
This is actually the real basis for Zhu Yuanzhang to judge that the Mingjiao might make a comeback.
Now that he had this judgment, of course he had to prepare a good response, so he secretly mobilized the Fujian and Guangdong Navy to go north; at the same time, he ordered the Biwa Navy on Chongming Island to secretly intercept the Chaohu Gang's fleet transporting their families and property to sea...
In this way, Boss Zhu can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai - no matter what tricks the Ming Church uses, I can completely annihilate the Chaohu Navy and break it! Without the elite of the Chaohu Navy, the remaining rabble of the Ming Church can defeat it.
What kind of waves can you afford?
It can be said that before returning to Fengyang, the Chaohu Navy in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes was already a group of dead people.
But what he saw and heard after arriving in Fengyang changed Zhu Yuanzhang's mind again, and he felt that it would not be a bad idea to keep them for a while longer...
~~
"Forget it, for the sake of Yu Tongyuan and the others saving my son, let's spare them this time." Zhu Yuanzhang slowly shook his head and said, "They won't feel aggrieved next time, right?"
"They probably don't dare anymore." Liu Ying whispered.
"Who knows?" Boss Zhu smiled contemptuously: "But once Xiao Liao dies, how can they still rebel based on these information? What a fart rebellion?"
"But this time it is indeed quite suspenseful. Fortunately, His Royal Highness the King of Chu reported the message in time and thwarted the Mingjiao's conspiracy to break the embankment." Liu Ying smiled and said happily: "Otherwise, the emperor would certainly be fine, but there are hundreds of thousands of people in Linhuai County.
I’m afraid my life is not guaranteed.”
"Well, we expected everything else, but we didn't expect that they would burst the embankment. They kept rebelling for the people, but in the end they took the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. They didn't care at all." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said bitterly.
: "We almost got a bad reputation!"
Then he ordered: "Bring us the chief culprit and behead all the others."
"Yes." Liu Ying won in a deep voice.
"By the way, have you found out what happened on the day you returned home?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.
"I found out that someone wanted to file a complaint, but was stopped by the people from Jin Wu's left guard." Liu Ying replied.
"Where is that person?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
"The commander of Jinwu's left guard has handed it over to Ding Bin, the commander of Fengyang's central guard." Liu Ying said.
"Who is the commander of Jinwu's left guard? You dare not call him by his name?" Zhu Yuanzhang's voice suddenly dropped.
"Back to the emperor, it's Li Qi, the eldest son of Duke Han." Liu Ying quickly leaned over and said: "He and Ding Bin are cousins."
"Hmph, what are you afraid of?" Zhu Yuanzhang snorted dissatisfied and asked quietly: "You already know about Cao Xiu?"
"I just found out." Liu Ying said with a trembling voice: "I must take this as a warning!"
"What are you doing?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked forcefully.
"Don't be too smart. Just be loyal to the emperor wholeheartedly and obey orders. You don't know anything else!" Liu Ying quickly expressed her stance.
Obviously, he had already noticed Cao Xiu's skill in dancing, and he was quite envious of Cao Xiu's ability to do things...
"Well, of my two benefactors' sons, I can finally keep one more." Zhu Yuanzhang finally looked a little brighter and said to Liu Ying in a deep voice:
"Always remember your words. You are our knife. Whether it is used for self-defense or killing, it is all out of our will. And you are a knife without emotions! When would you have
You have your own thoughts, tell us earlier, and I will let you come to watch the funeral, and we will never let my benefactor’s son lose his head and his body!"
"Yes, I will always remember this!" Liu Ying kowtowed heavily, her eyes changing when she stood up.
There was no joy, anger, sorrow or joy in his eyes, only bone-deep indifference...
"Now, we can tell you the truth." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction and said to Liu Ying: "We are extremely disappointed with the pro-military governor's mansion and are ready to start a new one. We haven't decided what to call it yet, but before that, you have to first
The secret is to pass everyone through! Whenever there is a question, even if there is only a little doubt, write it down in a small notebook for me, and let them stand aside when it is time to start over again!"
"I obey your decree!" Liu Ying responded in a deep voice.
"Among them, none of the distinguished disciples will be left alive." Then Zhu Yuanzhang said word by word.
"This..." Liu Ying knew that this was the key point. She thought, "Isn't this going to blow up?" But then she thought of what she was now, and immediately lowered her head and responded: "I obey the order!"
"Don't make any noise now. It won't be too late to wait until we get back to Nanjing to start." Zhu Yuanzhang ordered again.
"Yes!" Liu Ying responded in a deep voice.
~~
On board a Korean public carriage.
Li Shanchang was in a very bad mood and didn't want to talk, which was in sharp contrast to the look and feel he had when he arrived.
"That's what happened last night..." Ding Bin reported the intelligence received in a deep voice, with a livid expression on his face: "The Mingjiao has indeed planned a big conspiracy. If the emperor had not been prepared in advance, and if the King of Chu had not reported the message in time, he would have
It’s hard to say what we are like now.”
"Fuck! This is so embarrassing..." Li Shanchang punched the wall of the carriage hard. The pain made him grin, but it could not relieve the aggrieved feeling in his heart.
He patted his chest and promised his superiors that all the Ming cultists in Fengyang Mansion had been eradicated. Please feel free to return home...
As a result, the Mingjiao actually had such a big plan, but he didn’t realize it. It was simply ‘outrageous, damn boastful – so damn outrageous’!
"Fortunately, nothing happened..." Xue Xiang carefully consoled him from the side: "The emperor won't blame the prime minister too much."
"Fart!" Li Shanchang scolded him mercilessly, and then complained to himself: "I have worked so hard to make the superiors think that I am getting stronger. Now it's better. Cheng Lianpo is old, and he eats three meals a day.
It’s the target!”
"Ah, it's not that serious, right?" the two of them said in surprise.
"You still don't understand the superior. For the rest of my life, I have been compared with Liu Bowen." Li Shanchang closed his eyes in pain and said: "I can imagine that the superior will definitely say that Liu Bowen would not be so old and dim...
"
"Alas..." The two of them didn't know how to comfort the depressed old prime minister.
"Forget it, I'm already at my age anyway, so it won't be a shame if I can't make a comeback." Li Shanchang calmed down, suppressed his frustration, and said sternly: "But there must be no mistakes in moving the capital, otherwise I will die in peace!"
"Understood!" The two of them hurriedly agreed in unison. Xue Xiang asked in a low voice: "Didn't the Prime Minister say that the relocation of the capital has been finalized?"
"At this moment, at that moment. I didn't expect that the Ming Church would fight back." Li Shanchang seemed to be in a mood of self-doubt. "Now, those boys came back when they least should have come back. Who knows who they are?"
What will it bring?”
"When you go back, go from house to house and let them think carefully about any butts that haven't been wiped clean and get them cleaned up quickly!" As he spoke, he stared at Ding Bin with blood-red eyes and growled in a low voice:
"Whoever sets a trap for me, I will kill his whole family!"
"yes!"
