Chapter 108 The Prince's Case and the Concubine's Case

Ruan Dacheng, who was sitting at his head, agreed with one hundred: "Yes, this should be done. What should I do if the four towns in Jiangbei follow Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing like this?"

But Yang Longyou on the other side had some disagreements: "Don't force Liu Yongxi and Xing into a hurry. Now the Tong Concubine case and the prince's case are so fierce. If Donglin puts his hopes on Xiaochengyi Bo, there will be endless troubles..."

For the current court, although the tens of thousands of troops of Liu Yongxi and Mrs. Xing are only more than 200 miles away from Nanjing, they are not the real confidant of the court. The real confidant of the court lies in the "Crown Prince's Case" and the "Child Concubine's Case".

Originally, the Crown Prince's case and the Tong Concubine were not big deals. Ma Shiying estimated that the young man who claimed to be the crown prince and the monk Dafeng were both standard parallel products. However, the Tong Concubine, who claimed to be the step-in-compassion of Hongguang, was somewhat credible, but from the perspective of Emperor Hongguang, this Tong Concubine must be a fake.

However, since the Hongguang court made all the mistakes in more than half a year, the authenticity of the prince has become a standard political issue. Although the court has countless evidence to prove that the prince is a fake, those gentlemen who are dissatisfied with the court have a hundred reasons to prove that this is the real prince.

This is not only a comprehensive counterattack by the people of Donglin, but also a carnival for all those who are dissatisfied with the Hongguang court. Although the cabinet ministers including Ma Shiying have tried their best, they can't help but talk. Even many middle and senior officials were trapped in. In order to calm these voices, the court had to decide to invite the "Crown Prince" and "Concubine Tong" to Nanjing to argue the truth. Even if Emperor Hongguang has repeatedly reiterated that Concubine Tong is a fake, it would be useless.

The simplest example is that the authenticity of Concubine Tong is irrelevant, but the "meritorial officials" who sent Concubine Tong to Beijing were Henan Governor Yue Qijie and Guangchang Bo Liu Liangzuo. Now these two "meritorial officials" are fully supporting Concubine Tong.

Yue Qijie is Ma Shilin's brother-in-law. In his private message, he said that although this concubine Tong was a vulgar and rude woman in the folk, she told many details about King Fu's in trouble, which was very credible. But since she was his brother-in-law, it was easy to deal with. Ma Shiying had countless ways to change Yue Qijie's words, but Guangchang's No. Liu Liangzuo was a big trouble.

This warlord regarded Concubine Tong as her number one military achievements and wanted to take this opportunity to take another step, so he was particularly tough on this issue. If it was handled improperly, it might lead to a mutiny.

The Crown Prince case is even more troublesome. After all, King Fu was established by Empress Zhang Yi'an, and it is well known that Empress Zhang made three rules with King Fu at the time. However, King Fu has not even abide by these three rules. Not only has he negotiated peace with the Qing Dynasty, but he also chose concubines in Suzhou and Hangzhou to startle the people. As for the items in the cup, he has never stopped for a day. In this case, the people hope that a wise crown prince can replace the unvirtuous Emperor Hongguang.

Not only did Donglin Junzi think this way, but even a hero like Lu Zhenfei went to Jinhua to meet Queen Zhang, hoping that she could stand up and establish a new king. Zuo Liangyu and He Tengjiao even wrote a memorial every day, but the letter not only asked to ensure the absolute safety of the "Prince" but also scolded Ma Shiying as a traitor, and even prepared to raise an army in the peace and crisis.

Compared with Zuo Liangyu, He Tengjiao, and Liu Liangzuo, although Liu Liangxi has been making trouble, the matter is well controlled. Moreover, Ma Shiying feels that he will borrow more than tens of thousands of soldiers from Liu Yongxi in the future: "Empress Zhang is very wise, and Xiao Zhenyi Bo also knows the matter is proportional. He did not join Zuo Liangyu, He Tengjiao and others. This matter should indeed be discussed for a long time!"

However, Ruan Dacheng's view was completely different from that of Ma Shiying: "It is precisely because Xiao Chengyi Bo did not share Zuo Liangyu, He Tengjiao and others that we should try to control the supply of food and salary. Otherwise, when we really want to take down Chengyi Bo, he will know what is right and wrong!"

Although Liu Kongzhao has been promoted to Chengyihou for his decisive achievements, Ruan Dacheng is still used to calling him Chengyibo.

Yang Longyou couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't expect Ruan Dacheng was going to attack Liu Kongzhao: "Brother Yuanhai, is this a matter not appropriate? Liu Kongzhao has always been reliable in his work!"

Not only is Liu Kongzhao reliable in his work, he also sent Ma Shiying to the cabinet, but also put Ruan Dacheng into the return of Ruan Dacheng, Liu Kongzhao also put a lot of effort into the matter of Ruan Dacheng's return. Moreover, he is Ruan Dacheng, Yang Longyou, and Ma Shiying are all old friends in the true sense. It is already a bit inappropriate to transfer Liu Kongzhao from Nanjing City. Now Ruan Dacheng is preparing to be soft-she over Liu Kongzhao.

If you really want to take down Liu Kongzhao, it may trigger a chain reaction in both directions of Jinhua and Jiangdu, but Ruan Dacheng did not keep his friendship with Chengyi Bo Mansion in his heart: "I know that Ma Xiangguo is compassionate, so I must have thunderous means. At this point, for the sake of the country and the country, I can only give in to Chengyi Bo first, otherwise you and I will have no place to die!"

Yang Longyou was about to speak, but Ma Shiying felt that Ruan Dacheng's words were very reasonable: "This is indeed the case, and we are also considering the long-term consideration of the sincerity Bo Mansion. Since the admiral Cao Jiang, Brother Kong Zhao has not had a good rest, so he can enjoy more life in Beijing!"

Speaking of this, Ma Shiying said another sentence: "And it won't be wronged Liu Kongzhao. The Liu family in the Ming Dynasty has been just a clerk for more than two hundred years. Now Liu Kongzhao has not only been promoted to the Marquis of Chengyi, but also can be promoted to Duke Cheng immediately. He must be satisfied!"

Seeing that Ma Shiying had made up his mind, Yang Longyou could only change his position: "Since the Prime Minister said that, let Duke Cheng be satisfied. Don't let him down!"

Ma Shiying looked at Yang Longyou a few more times and finally said, "There is another thing to be wronged Wen Cheng. Your Majesty meant to let Lizhen enter the palace to be the queen. For the sake of the country, I have already agreed to Yuanhai!"

Yang Longyou was frightened by this sudden attack. The reason why Ruan Dacheng received the full support of Ma Shiying and other Guizhou Township Party was because his daughter Ruan Lizhen had an engagement with Yang Longyou's youngest son Yang Zuolin, but no one expected that Ruan Dacheng immediately regretted the marriage as soon as he achieved success and was about to send Ruan Lizhen into the palace.
