Chapter four hundred and forty-first chaos in the southeast
The disagreement between civil and military affairs has always been a taboo in the officialdom, especially when the enemy is in the face of a great enemy.
The crack between Wu Wendao and Cao Fengnian has formed, and it is impossible to repair it if it is done.
But Wu Wendao did not want to completely turn against Cao Fengnian at this moment, so he still maintained the most basic relationship on the surface.
Of course, the report behind the scenes still needs to be beaten.
He impeached Cao Fengnian for being domineering and had sent someone to the governor's yamen to impeach him. I believe that the governor would see this letter soon.
At that time, the governor will definitely be furious.
Is Cao Fengnian the governor who is so awesome?
Governor Du is a ruthless person who can even kill Zuo Liangyu. Will he be afraid of a mere general of Yunyang?
Of course, Wu Wendao also knew that changing generals at the last stage was a taboo in military strategists. He would not replace Cao Fengnian unless he had to.
As long as he kills his spirit, he will be satisfied to earn some face for Wu Wendao.
He believed that Governor Du, who was also a civil servant, would definitely stand on his side
Nanjing Forbidden City.
Zhu Cilang officially announced the appointment of his eldest son Zhu Heyuan as the crown prince at the dynasty meeting, and announced the world.
He originally wanted to wait a little longer and perform the title ceremony when Yuan'er is old. However, some ministers advised the emperor to establish a crown prince earlier to consolidate the country's foundation and calm the people's hearts, so Zhu Cilang responded.
The crown prince's enthronement ceremony was very complicated, and officials of the Ministry of Rites worked hard for most of the day before the ceremony was completed.
Not only the ministers, but also Zhu Cilang himself was also very tired.
But there is no way, the royal family has its own royal etiquette.
If the etiquette of a crown prince is not complicated, it cannot reflect the royal dignity.
After the dynasty meeting ended, Zhu Cilang came to Kunning Palace to tell the queen about the good news.
Although it was sooner or later that his son would become the crown prince, Tongtang could not hide his excitement after hearing this news.
That is the crown prince, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, and the next holy emperor!
His son will rule the world in the future and become a wise king. He will definitely do it!
After holding the prince, Zhu Cilang handed Zhu Heyuan to the nurse and enjoyed a rare time alone with Tong Tang.
"Your Majesty, the last time you ordered someone to make the woven fabric, which is very useful. I wonder if Your Majesty can order the Ministry of Works to do more, and I will also order the palace servants to weave cloth in the palace to supplement their food, clothing and food."
Tong Tang’s idea is not unacceptable.
Zhu Cilang's mother once led palace maids to weave cloth in the palace to reduce the cost of the harem.
Tong Tang wanted to share the burden for him.
"I'm sure. I'll ask the Ministry of Works to make two hundred shuttle looms to deliver them to your palace. But there's one thing you have to agree to."
Zhu Cilang said in harmony.
"Please speak with your Majesty."
"You must do this weaving within your ability and do not tiring yourself. Otherwise, I will not allow you to weave again."
Although it was a tone of order, Zhu Cilang's eyes were full of affection and sweetness. Tongtang couldn't help but turn red, and he nodded slightly and said, "I obey the order."
"Okay, let's accompany me to the Royal Garden."
Zhu Cilang held Tongtang's hand and said softly
"Your Majesty, the Military Information Department urgently reported it!"
Zhu Cilang and Tong Tang were spreading freely in the imperial garden. Han Zanzhou suddenly ran over and knelt down on the ground and raised a letter high above his head.
Zhu Cilang couldn't help but frown.
It was really a shame to come to Fengjiu at this time. However, state affairs are of great importance, so he cannot delay it.
He took the urgent report and opened the envelope and opened it. After only a while, he said angrily: "Zheng Zhilong is simply shameless!"
Tong Tang couldn't help but become nervous and asked carefully: "Your Majesty, what happened?"
"Zheng Zhilong sent the navy to dress up as Japanese pirates and go to the southeast coast to rob the southeast coast."
Zhu Cilang sighed, his words full of helplessness.
Zheng Zhilong was originally a pirate, and most of his troops were pirates. This time, he was naturally familiar with the Japanese pirates without any difficulty.
As for the reason, it is not difficult to guess.
First of all, the food in Guangdong and Guangxi was limited, and the food King Gui sent to Zheng Zhilong was not enough. Zheng Zhilong had to grab it in order to keep the food.
Secondly, Zheng Zhilong also wanted to create chaos in the southeast to distract the court, create opportunities for King Gui to rise up and win time.
But this method is too shameless.
"ah!"
Tongtang was shocked.
She had heard of Zheng Zhilong's recent actions, but she didn't expect that this guy was so bold and dared to order people to pretend to be Japanese pirates and plunder the Southeast.
"Your Majesty, then you can go and deal with state affairs quickly. I am not in trouble here."
Zhu Cilang nodded.
Tongtang is still very sensible.
"Parent Han, let's meet Lu Zhenfei, Minister of the Ministry of Propaganda."
In the warm pavilion of Qianqing Palace, Zhu Cilang stared at the map with a frown.
He took the charcoal pen and clicked and circled it in the southeastern provinces, and his mood was extremely complicated.
"Your Majesty, Zheng Zhilong's move is intended to disperse the imperial court's forces. If Your Majesty mobilizes the army to guard the southeast, the pressure will be greater in the north."
Lu Zhenfei analyzed: "It's better to send the Denglai Navy to go there. The problem in the southeast is on the sea or on the land."
Lu Zhenfei's words are still very reasonable.
The reason why Zheng Zhilong is powerful is because of the navy.
His attack on the southeast must be only in the coastal areas and will not go deeper.
Even if Zhu Cilang sent the Hu Ben army to suppress the enemy, Zheng Zhilong would not order people to confront each other head-on.
By then, Zheng Zhilong's troops robbed money and food and boarded the boat and left, and the imperial army could only stare at him.
But if the Denlai Navy was sent, the situation would be completely different.
Zheng Zhilong's boat wants to run, and the Denglai Navy can chase it. As long as you want to catch up, you can catch up.
"What I said is reasonable. But who should be sent to command the navy?"
Zhu Cilang said lightly.
"I have a candidate here, but"
Seeing Lu Zhenfei hesitating, Zhu Cilang cleared his throat and said, "I don't have to worry about it, but it's okay."
Lu Zhenfei hurriedly bowed and said, "I obey the order. The person I want to recommend is Zhu Chenggong."
Zhu Chenggong is naturally Zheng Chenggong.
Zhu Cilang once gave him the surname Zhu.
After the news that Zheng Zhilong had secretly communicated with the Eastern Captains, Zheng Chenggong was once under a lot of pressure, but he finally survived and performed well in the battle to eliminate Japanese pirates, winning the trust of the soldiers.
"Your Majesty, although this person is Zheng Zhilong's biological son, his loyalty to the court is understandable. Moreover, he is good at water warfare and is one of the few candidates to choose from in the Ming Dynasty. However, his identity is a bit sensitive, and I am worried that it will be difficult for Your Majesty to do here."
Zhu Cilang knew what Lu Zhenfei was worried about, but it was nothing more than the impeachment of the censors.
