To be honest, King Zhu Chaoyang of Yiyang is not as attractive to Zhu Yihai as a big bird boat.
Zhu Chaoyin's brief experience in supervising the country actually started off very well. He was supported by the Eighth General Soldier, and his subordinates claimed to have 200,000 soldiers. However, after only two months, he was completely defeated by him.
To sum up, if you don’t have diamonds, you shouldn’t take up this porcelain job.
King Zhu Chaoyang of Yiyang was a big fat man. He rolled over like a fat ball from a distance and hugged Zhu Yihai's legs. He cried so hard that he burst into tears. Not only that, he also slapped him wildly.
His own slap.
This set of actions was so sudden that Zhu Yihai was a little confused.
Seeing Zhu Chaoxin's chubby appearance, he instead thought of Hongguang's father, Prince Fu, his distant cousin who was lit up as a sky lantern by the intruders.
Seeing such behavior, Zhu Yihai was actually very unhappy. He endured his nausea and reached out to pat Zhu Chaoyin on the shoulder, "King Yiyang, please get up quickly."
In terms of seniority, King Zhu Chaoyang of Yiyang is Zhu Yihai's uncle, but Zhu Yihai really can't call this fat man uncle.
King Yiyang was still slapping himself in the face, saying how guilty he had been before, but he said that he had no intention of supervising the country, but fled to the south of the Yangtze River, and was insisted by Tian Yang and others to be the superintendent of the country.
When King Lu's envoy arrived before, he also wanted to abdicate and return to the feudal vassal to worship King Lu as Zhengshuo. Anyway, he was trying to shift blame and blame.
This made Zhu Yihai even less fond of this fat man. Looking at his silk and brocade, his body was covered with gold and jade, he was fair and chubby. In this situation, he could still be so fat. He didn't know whether he should be said to be generous and fat, or not at all.
Heartless.
However, he did not even kill Zhu Shengchen, the king of Tongcheng who had been emperor for a few days, let alone Zhu Chaoyin, so he bent down and helped him up, "You and I are both descendants of Emperor Taizu Gao. When the Ming Dynasty is in danger, the news is blocked.
, everyone raises the flag to resist the captives, so what crime is there?"
"King Yiyang is not only innocent but also meritorious. I will now appoint you as the general who suppresses the captives and leads the right army as the commander-in-chief of the governor's palace."
King Deng gave him the title of General of Conquering the Captives, King Tongcheng conferred the title of General of Ping the Captures, and now there is a General of Conquering the Capsules, and Zhu Yihai is already very skilled at them.
Zhu Chaoyin's fat pig-headed face finally cracked a smile and thanked her loudly.
"Chen Tian pays homage to His Highness."
The chief assistant of King Yiyang's small court, Dongge University Scholar and Minister of the Second Ministry of Li and Bing, Tian Yang, the governor of Jiangbei, came up to pay homage, followed by Jing Benche, the governor of the Zhejiang Navy, Shen Tingyang, the left minister of the household department and the right minister of the war department, and the admiral general
Soldier Zhang Pengyi and others.
Brothers Zhang Pengyi and Zhang Jirong evacuated from Taicang City and rushed to Suzhou, but failed to catch up, so they chased all the way to Jiangyin, and finally caught up with Zhu Yihai in Jiangyin.
Zhu Yihai looked at these people, their endings in history flashed through his mind.
In history, Tian Yang also went to Nantou to Zhu Yihai, summoned him as a scholar of Dongge University, and granted him the title of Zhongbo. However, his troops plundered everywhere and competed with Zheng Zunqian for military pay.
The most outrageous thing was that the two generals Tian and Zheng were competing for pay, and finally they broke out in the Golden Palace. General Li Shilian of Tian Yang's tribe actually drew his sword at him, forcing Zheng Zunqian to cry out to Zhu Yihai for help in the palace.
What kind of behavior is this?
Zheng Zunqian was the Yixingbo conferred by Zhu Yihai, and he was the left governor of the Central Military Governor's Mansion.
Before the fall of Yangzhou, Tian Yang was the governor of water transportation and the governor of Huai'an. However, when Yangzhou was in danger, he led eight thousand troops and did not save them. When Yangzhou was lost, he did not go south to King Qin, but directly led his troops to sea.
Finally, after the army was defeated on the Qiantang River, Tian Yang, as a cabinet minister, directly surrendered to the Qing army.
In the biography of traitorous ministers in the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, Tian Yang is listed on the list and is one of the twelve traitorous ministers. Although when Zhu Yihai first read the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, he thought that these traitorous ministers such as Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng, Liu Kongzhao, Tian Yang, etc. were actually Ma Party members, which means that they were basically Ma Party members.
They are all opponents of the Donglin Party, which is obviously biased.
However, Tian Yang himself was a corrupt official. He then clung to Ma Ruan, Liu Kongzhao and other powerful people and took up important positions. However, he seriously neglected his duties. He neither saved Yangzhou nor served Nanjing. He supported King Yiyang and supervised the country without making any achievements. He defected to King Lu again.
He was given important positions to cabinet ministers, but he sent troops to plunder them, drew swords in the palace, and finally surrendered to the Qing Dynasty.
This kind of person should be killed directly.
"Governor Tian, when you were the governor of water transportation and patrolling Huai'an, you had 8,000 troops, why didn't you send one soldier to Yangzhou?"
Tian Yang was originally quite relaxed when he saw that King Yiyang and others were not blamed, but he did not expect to be asked this question suddenly, and he felt panicked.
Zhi Bu Zhe explained that although there were 8,000 soldiers in Huai'an at that time, they had no food and pay, and the soldiers refused to leave. He also said that many generals around Yangzhou did not send troops to rescue them.
Zhu Yihai just sneered after hearing this.
"Is this the same reason for not being diligent in Nanjing?"
The soldiers who did not have food and pay were unwilling to leave. This was only an objective reason. After Yangzhou City was defeated, didn't Huai'an's soldiers and generals leave? Although they escaped by sea, they still left Huai'an City.
"I am guilty."
Tian Yang knelt on the ground in fear, trembling.
Zhu Yihai looked at Tian Yang, and after about a quarter of an hour of silence, he finally spoke again. During this quarter of an hour of silence, everyone was too nervous to speak out.
At this moment, they felt the unpredictability of a king's power.
Zhu Yihai is not tolerant of everyone, and he also gets angry sometimes.
Just when everyone thought Tian Yang could not escape, Zhu Yihai waved his hand and said, "Get up."
He did not kill Tian Yang in the end because Tian Yang finally surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and surrendered after the situation collapsed. He did not surrender voluntarily, and he did not actively sacrifice his life to turn against his old master.
Zhu Yihai will not be like the Donglin Party members who focus on evaluating and criticizing opponents based on the party's view of right and wrong.
Tian Yang's biggest problem is that he has neither good moral character nor good ability. He only knows how to engage in business and corruption. Even if he becomes a governor or a bachelor, he can neither control his subordinates nor provide suggestions to save the country and the people.
He, together with Ma Shiying and Liu Kongzhao in The Traitor, were not as good as him. At least they still had some ability, and in the end they refused to give in and died to maintain their status in the late period.
But at this time of year, he is better than Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zeqing, and Wu Sangui. At least he surrendered at the end of the road.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yihai spared his life.
But of course it is impossible for such a person with neither virtue nor ability to be entrusted with important responsibilities again.
"I have appointed Wu Yi as Governor of Water Transport and Governor of Jiangning. Now that Jiangbei has been lost, you, the Governor of Fengyang, have no land to patrol or govern, so you will stay in front of the emperor for the time being and be granted the title of Lecturer at the Hanlin Academy."
Tian Yang was not dissatisfied at all when he received this treatment. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief, and a feeling of surviving a disaster arose spontaneously. Just now, he really thought that the prison country was going to kill him. After lowering his expectations, he was now only awarded a waiter.
Speaking of the bachelor's degree, it also exceeded expectations, so naturally I was very happy.
"Jing Benteru."
"The guilty minister is here."
"You were originally the censor of the army in Xiajiang Road. I promoted you to the fourth rank of Zhanshi Mansion, Shao Zhanshi, and you stayed in front of the emperor."
It is said that it is a promotion, but in fact it is just idle.
"Shen Qing!"
"I'm here."
"I have appointed you as the right minister of the Huaiyang governor's department and the right deputy of the imperial censor. You will be temporarily stationed in Chongming and be responsible for restoring affairs in Jiangbei."
Hearing this mission, Shen Tingyang was stunned, and Tian Yang and Jing Benche on the side were also a little stunned. They thought that Lu Jianguo, the man of King Yiyang, would not be used. Who would have expected that he just said that Huaiyang was now lost and there was no place to care for. Tian Yang was changed to a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy, but Shen Tingyang was also appointed governor of Huaiyang. Isn't this contradictory?
"General Zhang Pengyi, you were originally the commander-in-chief of Huai'an, and now you are appointed the commander-in-chief of Huaiyang."
Zhang Pengyi's younger brother Zhang Jirong was summoned to the imperial camp by Zhu Yihai, and 400 of their brother's 500 elite men from Guan Ning's old army were also transferred to the imperial camp.
Others, such as Jing Benche's brothers and nephews, Shen Tingyang's brothers and nephews, etc. also have their own arrangements.
The small court of King Yiyang was officially merged into the court of Lu Jianguo and became a thing of the past.
