"Lu Fan," Zhu Cihong looked at Zhu Yihai with a smile, "Have you heard about the Tang Domain's relocation of the town?" ”

Zhu Yihai replied: "Back to the prince, when the minister returned to Shandong from Haizhou, he saw the Tang King in Dengzhou City. ”

"King Tang is on the horse to manage the army, and dismount to manage the people!" Zhu Cihong said, "This is the real vassal king!" ”

He glanced at the King of Jin, King Qin, and King De sitting next to him, and said with a sigh: "In the past, Emperor Taizu Gao's purpose of dividing the vassal kings was to defend the imperial court with the king of Hu. It's a pity that this ancestor gradually deteriorated, and it became a feudal ban where the vassal king did not take charge of the army. If you don't take charge of the army, how can you defend one side? What other vassal kings? As soon as the thieves come, what can the vassal king, who has no soldiers and horses at hand, do not flee for his life and do not surrender and beg for his life? Suicide martyrdom? It's strong, but what's the use? This rule will change from now on.

If you don't want to go on the horse to manage the army, get off the horse and manage the people, or the vassal king who doesn't have this ability, don't stay outside, and follow the palace to Nanjing to be a prince. The county king, generals, lieutenants, etc., all those who could find them all went to Nanjing together. There is always something for them to eat in Nanjing!

Princes, county kings, generals, and lieutenants are not hereditary, but there are still titles in this generation, and future generations are demoted to the next level...... The prince's son is the king of the county, and the concubine is the general of the town; The son of the king of the county should be the prince of the country, and the concubine should be the general of the auxiliary country; The son of the prince of the country should be the marquis, and the concubine should be the general of the country; The marquis's son was the uncle, and the concubine was the lieutenant of the town; The earl's son is the general of the town, and the concubine is the common people. After the general Zhenguo, he is also an ordinary person and is no longer included in the jade. What do you guys think? ”

What do you think? Absolutely!

The kings of Lu, Jin, Qin, and De were all princes who lost their domains. Among them, the kings of Jin, Qin and De all had the bad deeds of surrendering Li Zicheng, and even if Zhu Cihong gave them death, it was in line with the ancestral system. Now they are still princes...... It's just a great grace!

The kings of Jin, Qin, and De all got up and walked to the center of the main hall to kowtow to Zhu Cihong in thanks. Zhu Cihong nodded with a smile and raised his hand to signal them to get up and sit down.

These three waste princes are actually useful, otherwise Zhu Cihong would not have given them the title of prince.

They have three uses, one is to help Zhu Cihong solve the problem of the Ming Dynasty's too large clan - although in this catastrophe, the number of Ming Dynasty clans has been greatly reduced, but because the base is too large, the current scale is still very large. If the vast majority of them were not eliminated, Zhu Cihong's court would not have enough financial resources to build an army and rule steadily.

As for the matter of cleaning up the clan, it is inconvenient for Zhu Cihong to bring it up by himself, so it is best not to come forward to be a villain. The kings of Jin, Qin, and De, as well as the kings of Heng, are the most suitable and wicked people.

They will either be evil princes or unforgivable dead men......

And King Lu did not kowtow to Zhu Cihong with the other three kings, obviously a man who couldn't resist the temptation of power, and wanted to be the second in the Tang Domain!

"Lu Fan," Zhu Cihong looked at Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu, "Do you want to be a vassal king who is in charge of the army and the people when he gets off the horse?" ”

Of course I did! Dream it!

Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu, immediately stood up and saluted Zhu Cihong, "The minister is willing to defend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince against the thieves, but the minister took the throne in a hurry in the chaos, and the savings of the Lu clan for more than 200 years have been lost, so he can't afford to pay to defend the city, so he has to abandon the city and leave to keep his useful life." ”

"That's good!" Zhu Cihong smiled, "The descendants of Emperor Taizu Gao are not stupid, how can they give their lives in vain?" When the palace sealed the Tang Dynasty, he said that he would not leave Shandong and would not be martyred easily. We must persevere to the end, even if we lose the city, we must retreat to the island and continue to resist!

Lu Fan, if the palace gives you the Hengwang Mansion and the silver deposited in the palace, can you not leave Shandong, not easily martyred, even if you enter the mountain as the king, you have to resist to the end? ”

Yidu County, where Hengwang Mansion is located, is next to Taihe Mountain, Yunmen Mountain, Yangtian Mountain and other mountains, all of which are the remaining veins of Mount Tai, stretching very widely, although not precipitous, but there are many valley basins, easy to adhere to.

Once King Lu entered the mountain as the king, the Qing army would have several more difficulties if they wanted to pacify Shandong! The Taishan Mountains are not comparable to Yidu City, which covers an area of just as little, and one or two hundred thousand people can dig trenches to besiege it.

And how big the Taishan Mountain Range is, without 108,000 soldiers, it can't even be encircled and suppressed!

Zhu Yihai was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed to Zhu Cihong, and said loudly: "Minister Zhu Yihai is willing to guard Qingzhou for His Royal Highness the Prince, even if he goes up the mountain and into the sea, he will not hesitate!" ”

Zhu Cihong stood up, stepped forward to help Zhu Yihai, and praised loudly: "Okay! The Ming Dynasty needs a vassal king like you! The palace will issue an edict tomorrow to move the Lu domain to Qingzhou. After the palace and the saint left, as soon as the Qingzhou Mansion responded to the military and political affairs, it would be in charge of the King of Lu and the Qingzhou Town Guard! ”

"Thank you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

When Zhu Yihai kowtowed to thank him, Zhu Cihong's handsome mansion governor Shi Bi Jiucheng walked in quickly from outside, came to Zhu Cihong's side, and reported in a low voice: "Chitose Lord, Kong Yinzhi has been arrested!" ”

Zhu Cihong nodded and said to Zhu Yihai: "Lu Fan, please get up, King Jin, King Qin, King De, you all accompany this king to meet Kong Yinzhi, the Holy Duke of Yan, who is in the east!" ”

......

Kong Yinzhi couldn't walk anymore, he was carried to the Yin'an Hall where Zhu Cihong was by two brocade guards, and before he had time to kowtow and ask for guilt, he heard Zhu Chunchen's loud voice.

"Zhu Chunchen, the head of the imperial camp, impeached the crown prince, Fu Yan, the holy prince, Kong Yinzhi, and separated the royal family!"

"The prince of Chenheng, Zhu Youdi, also impeached the crown prince Fu Yan Shenggong Kong Yinzhi to frame the prince, divide the royal family, and shake the country! Kong Yinzhi first descended to Liukou, and then surrendered to the East, and now he framed the prince and separated the royal family, which is really a great crime, and the crime deserves death, please treat his crime poorly! ”

"Ahh Zhu Cihong looked surprised, "Isn't Kong Yinzhi the Holy Prince?" How could they surrender to the Liukou and surrender to the Eastern Captives? It can't be wronged, right? ”

Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu, said: "Chitose Lord, this clan knows about Kong Yinzhi's surrender to thieves, and he can testify!" ”

King Zhu Youli also said: "This king can also prove that Kong Yinzhi surrendered to the enemy!" ”

Zhu Cihong snorted coldly, looking at Kong Yinzhi who was soft into a puddle of mud below, "Kong Yinzhi!" Three princes and one prince have impeached you, it seems that you are really guilty! This palace will help you calculate, throwing yourself into the Kou is a rebellion, throwing yourself into the East is treason, and framing the prince is a rebellion...... If you commit three heinous crimes! It's too light to kill the head, at least Ling Chi! For the sake of your face as the sixty-fourth grandson of Confucius, the palace is open, and you will cut yourself off! Cheng Guogong, give him a knife and let him cut his abdomen. ”

The knife was thrown in front of Kong Yinzhi's eyes with a clatter, not a full-size waist knife, but a short dagger, which was just right for cutting the abdomen. But where is Kong Yinzhi willing to cut? I can't care about the dignity of the Holy Father, I just kowtow while crying.

Zhu Cihong was willing to spare him, and said calmly: "Chengguo Gong, you help him." ”

Zhu Chunchen was not ambiguous, answered, and then bent down to pick up the knife that fell on the ground, and was about to stab Kong Yinzhi in the stomach, which scared Kong Yinzhi at that time. Just when the knife was about to pierce it, someone ran into the Yin'an Hall in a hurry, and then heard a loud report.

"Chitose Lord! After receiving a secret report from the Beijing Division, the Tartars are gathering troops and horses to prepare to enter Koushan Mountain! ”

"What?" Zhu Cihong was stunned for a moment, and then said to Zhu Chunchen, "Chengguo Gong, has Kong Yinzhi been killed?" ”

"Not yet, the minister will kill ...... immediately" As he spoke, Zhu Chunchen was about to stab him with a knife.

"Kill it later." Zhu Cihong said.

"Yes." Zhu Chunchen immediately withdrew the knife and stood aside.

Kong Yinzhi, who escaped death, was already frightened, and there was a puddle of water under him, which should be his urine, and there was quite a lot, and Yan Shenggong was paralyzed in his urine, trembling and begging for mercy.

Zhu Cihong walked up to him with a piece of letterhead, looked at him coldly, and asked, "You are the Yan Shenggong of Dongyu!" Now that the East Captives are coming, what do you say to do? ”

Kong Yinzhi said tremblingly: "Minister, minister, minister fight with them......"

"Really?" Zhu Cihong stared at Kong Yinzhi with beads in his eyes, not angry but arrogant.

"Really, really...... As long as the Chitose Lord spares the minister, the minister is willing to die for the Chitose Lord and the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Oh, death?" Zhu Cihong said coldly, "Then how do you plan to die?" ”

"This ......" Kong Yinzhi gritted his teeth, "The minister's family has money, and they all take it out to recruit soldiers!" ”

Zhu Cihong smiled: "It's good that you can have such an idea, but it's not enough!" If you die, your home will definitely be copied, and how much silver is from the court, and the court will use it to recruit soldiers. ”

"This, this, this ......." Kong Yinzhi was so anxious that he cried, "Chitose Lord spares his life!" ”

Zhu Cihong shook his head and said with a smile: "This palace is kind-hearted, I can't see an old man like you crying and begging." Well, this palace will give you a heads up...... This Tartar is extremely vicious, and he is the mortal enemy of the world's scholars! I came to Shandong to destroy the holy land of the famous religion! Do you know where the Holy Land is? It's your family's ancestral grave!

When the Tartars came to Shandong, they wanted to destroy the Confucian forest, demolish the Confucian Temple, and sweep away thousands of years of Chinese etiquette, poetry, and books. This is not only the change of my Ming Dynasty, is the strange change of the famous religion since the opening up, I Confucius, Mencius wept bitterly Jiuyuan, all those who read and read, and Wu can sit with their hands in their hands, do not think about what to do! ”

Prince Daming looked at Kong Yinzhi, who was like mud, and said with a smile: "Yan Shenggong, do you understand the meaning of this palace?" Are you a literate reader? Can you watch me cry bitterly in the place of Confucius and Mencius? ”

"The minister understands, the minister understands!" Of course, Kong Yinzhi understands, if he dares not to understand, he will be seppuku. "The minister will go to the table and send a text, calling on the world's scholars to come forward, protect the name of the church, fight the Tartars, and defend Konglin!"
