Emperor Kangxi sent Shi Lang to Fujian and Xue Zhang to Guangdong. After issuing an imperial edict to withdraw the governor of Fujian, he spent the New Year happily.
Although two unpleasant things happened this year, Emperor Kangxi felt that he could still handle it and that everything was under control!
So I still have to have a happy New Year!
However, some people are happy and some are sad. Just when the whole city of Beijing is immersed in the joyful atmosphere of the New Year, the palace of Princess Jianning in Shihu Hutong, Beijing, is filled with gloom and gloom.
The situation is very critical!
On the Beijing side, Emperor Kangxi was strategizing and commanding, and with a few clever moves, the situation in Guangdong was stabilized.
Yesterday, Wu Yingxiong heard the news that Emperor Kangxi sent Shi Lang to Fujian to rectify the navy, asked Fan Chengmo to be the governor of Fujian, and also met Shang Kexi's son Shang Kedian in the South Study... This made Wu Yingxiong very worried!
Judging from this, Emperor Kangxi was working steadily, using the power of Fujian and Guangdong provinces to gradually strangle the power of Prince Zhu San of Jieyang.
And as soon as the Third Prince Zhu is finished... Wu Yingxiong's death will come!
Because that damn Chongzhen edict had already distinguished Wu Sangui from monks Kexi and Geng Jingzhong.
At that time, Emperor Kangxi would be able to use his collusion with Prince Zhu as an excuse to attack Wu Sangui alone!
And because of this "vassal change incident", Shang Kexi will never be on the same page as Wu Sangui, and he will even step on Wu Sangui.
Geng Jingzhong would choose to align with the imperial court because he was stationed at Mi Sihan in Chaozhou... So Wu Sangui had to face the huge pressure from the imperial court alone, which was a dead end.
If Wu Sangui dies, Wu Yingxiong will definitely not end well either!
And if Wu Sangui wanted to die, he would have to rebel before Prince Zhu III died. No matter how he responded, or whether he rebelled in his own way, he would have to fight out from Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. He would have to conquer Sichuan and Huguang no matter what. Three-thirds of the world.
But no matter what Wu Sangui does, the hostage Wu Yingxiong will definitely die!
So today, during the Chinese New Year, he was not in the mood for a feast. Instead, he discussed countermeasures with Princess Jianning, Zuo Chunqiu, Military Advisor Zuo, Manager Wu of Wu Zhongqi, and Lu Renyi, who had somehow become a member of the Wu clan.
"Maybe... Grandson Zhu San can defeat King Pingnan, Mi Qincha, Fan Zhijun, Shi Junmen and others?"
The person who said this was Lu Renyi. He had already discovered that Zhu San Taisun was very evil... He was such a big thief, how could he use his troops like a god all of a sudden? And that Zhuge military advisor is also quite evil. He is obviously a fortune teller who travels around the world. How come he has inherited Zhuge Liang's mantle all of a sudden?
If the evil sect is like this, they might really be able to beat up Shang Kangxi, Mi Sihan, Fan Chengmo and Shi Lang!
After Wu Yingxiong heard this, he turned to look at his military advisor Zuo Chunqiu, "Mr. Zuo, look at this..."
Zuo Chunqiu was calculating, when he heard Wu Yingxiong's words, he frowned and said: "Master, if the third prince Zhu and the third grandson Zhu really succeed in Guangdong, the court may rely on the prince... And the prince’s health is not strong anymore, so it is possible that the emperor will spare the prince’s brother from ascending the throne and let the prince go south.”
Wu Sangui is pretending to be ill these days... In order to pretend to be more realistic, he didn't even tell Wu Yingxiong. He also pretended to "conceal his illness" and did not show up, but announced that he "occasionally felt cold". At the same time, he also asked his second son Wu Yingqi to take charge of Yunnan's military and government affairs.
This Wu Yingqi actually has no ambitions, and has a very good relationship with his eldest brother Wu Yingxiong. He has never thought about seizing the legitimate son, and he has already been nominally adopted by Wu Sangui's brother Wu Sanfeng.
However, this guy is notoriously reckless and has no brains. Everyone knows that he is a reckless guy who will do stupid things when his head gets hot.
If Wu Sangui really died and let him become the King of Pingxi, it would be equivalent to turning the Pingxi Palace into a "time bomb" that would explode at any time... If Prince Zhu San and Grandson Zhu San conquer Guangdong again , then this guy might have a hot head and really go to assist Prince Zhu.
If that happened, Emperor Kangxi would have fainted from crying!
So as long as Prince Zhu Sanda wins and Wu Sangui wants to fulfill these two conditions, Wu Yingxiong might really be able to survive!
"Then... can Prince Zhu win?" The person who asked this question was actually Princess Jianning.
Although she was Huang Taiji's daughter, her parents died early, and she married Wu Yingxiong when she was twelve years old. He also gave birth to three sons and two daughters with Wu Yingxiong, and their relationship was still very strong. Of course, he did not want Wu Yingxiong and his children to be beheaded by Emperor Kangxi.
Wu Yingxiong turned to look at Zuo Chunqiu. Zuo's military advisor was still counting on his fingers. His brows furrowed more and more as he counted... I wonder if he couldn't figure it out? Still not a good result?
"Commander, how are you doing?" Wu Yingxiong was a little anxious, and asked the question first without waiting for Military Counselor Zuo to finish his calculation.
Zuo Chunqiu didn't care, and simply said to Wu Yingxiong: "Master Shizi, if you can trust me, please send me down south."
After hearing what Zuo Chunqiu said, Lu Renyi followed suit and said, "Master, this servant is from Guangdong. He is familiar with the customs and customs of Guangdong and can guide the military advisor."
Wu Yingxiong glanced at the two of them and did not comment, but asked Zuo Chunqiu: "How does the military advisor plan to trap Shang Kexi?"
Zuo Chunqiu smiled and said: "Master, I'm glad that someone has already tried to trick Geng Jingzhong, so there is no need for me to take action. This time I plan to go to Fujian to trick Geng Jingzhong!"
"Trick Geng Jingzhong?" Wu Yingxiong seemed to have thought of something, "Yes, you and Geng Jingzhong have an old relationship... When he was in Beijing, he often invited you to come over to discuss the theory of prophecy. By the way, what exactly did he discuss with you? What?"
Zuo Chunqiu said with a smile: "There is a volume in the Jingnan Palace that is said to be a book of prophecies from the Han Dynasty. It is said to be one of the eighty-one prophecies announced by Emperor Guangwu. There is a sentence in it, the emperor is transformed into a fire ear."
"What do you mean?" Wu Yingxiong was confused.
"It means that Geng Jingzhong wants to be the emperor!"
"What?" Princess Jianning was almost amused by Zuo Chunqiu's words, "He also wants to be the emperor?"
Zuo Chunqiu nodded and said, "Although Geng Jingzhong didn't say it clearly, who doesn't understand what it means?"
Princess Jianning suddenly turned to look at Wu Yingxiong, smiled and asked: "Sir, do you want to be the emperor?"
"I, I, I..." Wu Yingxiong was startled by his wife's words and looked at Princess Jianning nervously. It took him a long time to hold back a sentence, "I really don't want to!"
Princess Jianning looked at her honest-looking husband and sighed: "You don't want to, but the emperor thinks you really want the chair under his butt!"
...
"Six to five, six to five..."
In Taiwan, on the wall of Anping Castle facing the sea, Prince Zheng Jing of Yanping County, who had changed into a "Confucius suit", was pacing and muttering "six to five".
Of course, this "six to five" is not the score of any competition, but the ratio of bachelors in the original Confucian bachelor's conference.
Behind Zheng Jing were two men, one was Chen Yonghua and the other was Feng Xifan.
Both of them frowned tightly, as if they were thinking hard.
Suddenly, Zheng Jing stopped, turned around slowly, and looked at the two people behind him, as if seeking their opinions.
Feng Xifan spoke first: "Your Majesty, if we can ensure that these six bachelors are all ours, that would be enough, but four of them are nominally recommended by Qiu Hui and Chen Shangchuan... .”
Zheng Jing did not comment and looked at Chen Yonghua again. Chen Yonghua said: "Your Majesty, the sugar-medicated grenade hammer has been successfully trial-produced!
In addition, Jiang Sheng just sent someone to deliver an urgent report... The Tatar Emperor sent Shi Lang to Fujian as the naval admiral, 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 waiting for his advice.
"Your Majesty," Chen Yonghua said, "It doesn't matter how many bachelors we can recommend... There is only one thing that really matters now, which is the land 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 opportunity will come! I suggest that we gather the troops immediately and smuggle them to Xiamen Island to wait for the opportunity!"
"What about the quota for bachelor's degree?"
Chen Yonghua shook his head and said: "This matter is irrelevant, let them go!"
Zheng Jing thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay then. In that case... you go to Xiamen Island in person to take charge of the overall situation, and let Liu Guoxuan also lead his elite troops to Xiamen by sea!" Zheng Jing, the third generation of the Zheng family, said here, Gritting his teeth, "When the time is right, I will go to Xiamen Island... The rise and fall of my Zheng family will depend on this battle!"
