"Young Master Li is so famous that I am so famous in the palace... I have always been regretting that such a great talent as Young Master Li, who is also a great scholar, why can't he be used by the imperial court? Now it's better, Li

Anyway, when the young master comes back, my great cause of Ming Zhongxing will definitely be possible!"

Zhu Cixiang held Li Yan's big hand all the way to Haisha Island, and only let go when they were seated separately. He threw the disgusting words away as if they were free, which made Li Yan feel embarrassed and no longer doubted whether his wife was there.

I have been scorned by the wise gentleman in front of me...Looking at the energy of Corporal Li Xian, he must not have it, right? It seems that he can rest assured.

"Thank you for the award, Lord Chitose. I'm just a scholar. I had no choice but to become a thief. I'm really ashamed."

What Li Yan said was truer than gold - he really had no choice but to become a thief! How could he still survive being kidnapped by a thief like Red Lady? Faced with such a female thief, any

A normal man will inevitably make mistakes!

Zhu Cixiang glanced at the red lady who was following Li Yan with a little blush on her cheeks, and said in her heart: It's all your fault! Li Yan only followed you as a last resort. What did you do to Li Yan?

"Master Li," Zhu Cixiang still called Li Yan's nickname, "you have just returned with your troops, and you have performed a great service and killed the best warrior in Manchuria! I will reward you heavily... By the way,

Do you want to be a civil servant or a military attache?"

"The student is a scholar, but he has already joined the army." Li Yan replied, "It is better to continue to be a military attache."

Zhu Cixiang nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay! Then you will be my military advisor first, and then I will entrust you with important responsibilities when I arrive in the south of the Yangtze River!"

Li Yan was neither humble nor arrogant, "The student thanked Mr. Qiansui."

Zhu Cixiang asked again: "Is Mr. Li a native of Henan?"

"The student is from Kaifeng Prefecture."

Zhu Cixiang nodded, "Zhongzhou is quite important. Since ancient times, Zhongzhou has dominated the world! Now there are three families competing for it... Mr. Li, what do you think?"

"Although Li Zicheng has great momentum, his foundation is unstable!" Li Yan said, "His Great Shun Dynasty is only on the surface and has not taken root. It looks good when the wind is going smoothly, but once the general trend of the world changes suddenly, it can easily fall apart.

"

He thought deeply and said: "Li Chuang's best strategy now is to occupy Shanxi and Heluo to protect the foundation of Guanlong and at the same time take root in Guanlong as soon as possible."

"Take root?" Zhu Cihong asked, "How to take root?"

Li Yan said: "The so-called rooting means to control the land and population... Just sending out magistrates and county magistrates is not enough. You must directly control at least part of the land and population. This is rooting!

For example, the Weisuo system implemented by Emperor Taizu Gao of this dynasty, the Fubing system of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the Eight Banners system of the Eastern Lu, all directly controlled part of the land and population as the foundation of the country. Only with the foundation can it last long. But Li Zicheng

It only knows how to equalize land and exempt taxes, but does not know how to keep the population and land under its firm control. I am afraid it will be difficult to regroup. Qiantose should seize the opportunity and send out capable generals to run Henan."

Zhu Cixiang nodded repeatedly, this Li Yan really has some skills!

...

The third day of the fifth lunar month in the first year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty.

Yongping Mansion, located in Shanhaiguan, is now the territory of the Qing Dynasty!

The day after Geng Zhongming and Duolong led their troops to leave Yongping, the Qing army stationed in Yongping tore off the mask of "helping the Ming Dynasty suppress bandits". First, they sent troops to surround 20,000 to 30,000 people in Funing Guard and Shanhaiguan.

The Ming army forced them to shave their heads and disarm them.

After that, Dorgon sent troops and horses to occupy the Ningyuan cities outside the pass, and Yongping, Jizhou, Miyun, Tongzhou, Changping, Yanqing, Xuanfu and other places inside the pass.

At the same time, he also sent Hauge to lead 30,000 elite soldiers from the Zhenglan Banner, Xianghuang Banner and Zhenghong Banner of the Han Army Kong Youde to attack the city of Beijing!

Dorgon also ordered all the envoys sent by Zhu Cihong to the Qing army camp to be detained.

After making some arrangements, Dorgon sat quietly in his tent and waited for the good news!

There must be some good news. Now the Qing Dynasty dominates the territory of Beizhili! There are a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers, and they have just defeated Li Zicheng's 200,000 (actually only 60,000) army. They are basically invincible.

Aren't you just going to occupy wherever you want?

There is only one question now, that is, will Emperor Chongzhen and the Crown Prince of the Zhu family escape from the swords of Duolong and Geng Zhongming?

If he really had this ability, Zhu Cixiang would be worthy enough to propose to Dongguo...

Dorgon was in a good mood, so he drank a little wine. When he was drunkenly wondering whether Zhu Cixi would escape from Dagukou, Fan Wencheng's voice suddenly came from outside the tent.

"Prince Regent, my servant Fan Wencheng has something urgent to ask for."

What's going on? The half-drunk Dorgon was stunned, and subconsciously thought that Fan Wencheng's wife had been slept with by Duduo again...Fan Wencheng's wife was filling in a house, and she looked like a flower.

Jade! I don’t know why I was attracted by Duduo, so I hooked up with him and went to sleep with him. In the end, this matter was revealed to Huang Taiji.

Of course, Huang Taiji valued Fan Wencheng very much, and wanted to take advantage of Duduo's opportunity, so he took 15 niulu from Duduo and asked him to pay him a thousand taels of silver - it was not that he gave the thousand taels to Fan Wencheng.

The person who paid for prostitution was Huang Taiji himself. As for Duduo sleeping with Fan Wencheng's wife, why did Huang Taiji receive a thousand taels of silver? That's a complicated question...

But now the situation is different. Now Fan Wencheng is the slave with the white flag, and Duoduo is the flag owner with the white flag. The flag owner has the right to sleep with the wife of the slave. If Fan Wencheng is not convinced, it will be difficult for Dorgon to do it.

ah!

"Come in! Come in quickly!" Dorgon quickly let Fan Wencheng into the tent. Seeing Lao Fan's furious look, he blurted out: "Did that boy Duduo sleep with your wife again? I'm going to do it now

Teach him a lesson for you..."

Fan Wencheng's face turned red when he said that. He quickly waved his hands and said, "No, it's not my wife's business. It's none of my business."

"Oh... Then why are you so anxious to see me?"

"It's Hong Chengchou!"

"Ah? Hong Chengchou's wife let Duduo sleep?" Duoduo stood up suddenly, nearly awakened by the wine, "This can't be done!"

Hong Chengchou is not a slave! Moreover, his original wife, Mrs. Li, is still staying in her hometown in Fujian. After joining the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji gave him a beautiful woman named Liu as his wife. This beauty Duduo cannot sleep with him casually!

Fan Wencheng looked embarrassed. Is the regent drunk? Why do you care about this matter?

"Your Majesty, this is not the case..." Fan Wencheng said this and took out a book from his sleeve pocket that seemed to have been overheated and had a burnt black surface. He handed it to Dorgon with both hands, "

Your Majesty, this is what I and my men found from the residence of the envoy Can Ming, and it is the order from Zhu Cihong to Hong Chengchou."

"What?" Dorgon took the almost burnt notebook, opened it and read it. After reading a few lines, he frowned.

Zhu Cixiang's edict looks more like a letter, and the main contents of the letter are four. The first is to thank Hong Chengchou for reporting the news, and also said that he has made complete preparations to reassure Hong Chengchou that things will never happen.

Lost... As for what happened, it was not stated clearly.

The second was about the arrangements for moving the capital to Nanxing and Zhili to the north. Zhu Cihong told Hong Chengchou that he had seriously considered Hong's suggestion and decided to keep Nanxing as the capital as soon as possible. He also entrusted Hong with all affairs in the north and appointed him as the left-behind minister in Beijing and the northern governor.

The Governor of Zhili also said that arrangements had been made in Beijing and he was waiting for Hong Chengchou to enter the city.

The third was about the establishment of acting vassals. Zhu Cixiang told Hong Chengchou that he had followed the plan and sent someone to persuade Jiang Yu to give up anyway.

The fourth is about the marriage between the Ming and Qing Dynasties...Zhu Cixiang asked Hong Chengchou to try to complete this matter.

Dorgon frowned after reading Zhu Cixiang's edict: "Master Fan, what do you think?"

Fan Wencheng shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, it's hard to say... maybe it's a plot to alienate someone, or it may be true!"

Dorgon looked at Fan Wencheng, "Do you think Hong Chengchou might betray me, the Qing Dynasty?"

"Probably not," Fan Wencheng said, "but you still have to be on guard!"

Dorgon asked again: "How did you obtain this edict?"

Fan Wencheng said: "When the slaves led people to detain the Ming envoys, they found that they were burning letters, so they sent people to search and obtain it. According to the Ming envoy Lin Yihu, this edict was only delivered last night
