In the early years, when Gao Yihuan started his family, in order to gather talents, he accepted a large number of demotions.

These people can defect to the Qing army, naturally they are not loyal ministers, and they are officials for glory and wealth, and there is no discipline at all.

In the early days of the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, because of the lack of officials, these people were very important to the Great Wei, and Gao Yihuan reused them in order to stabilize the place.

Now that the Great Wei has been unified in the world, and can pass the imperial examination, as well as the Guozijian to train officials, this group of people is not so important, but has become the root cause of corruption in the Great Wei officials.

These people joined the Great Wei Dynasty early, and now most of them are in high positions, controlling various yamen and departments, forming parties for personal gain, not only bringing some bad habits of the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty into the Great Wei court, but also embezzling and accepting bribes, excluding dissidents, and bringing about a bad atmosphere in the Great Wei court.

Hong Chengchou's generation once made great contributions to the Manchu Qing Dynasty's rule of the world, but after the Manchu Qing Dynasty got the world, he was spurned and had a miserable ending.

The political reason for this is that in order for the dynasty to be stable, it must promote the idea of loyalty and spurn traitors.

After Gao Yihuan made up his mind, he used Huang Zongxi to take down this group of people first, but taking them out was only the beginning, he still needed to tame Xungui, or kill some more people.

Gao Yihuan saw that Huang Zongxi was spending his energy on continuing to purge civil officials, and that the civil officials were going to affect the operation of the Great Wei court, so he summoned Chen Zhenhui and hinted that Chen Zhenhui had taken the letter of impeachment of the nobles, so that the Southern Party and the nobles would fight, and continued to use Huang Zongxi to get rid of some nobles who had acted excessively and taught them a lesson.

Now that there are a quarter fewer civil officials in the imperial court, and some more people have been executed, the government and the opposition will definitely have resentment, and at that time, Huang Zongxi will be launched to eliminate the southern party, calm the anger, and at the same time temporarily calm the party strife.

When the Great Wei court fell into a political turmoil and was dragged down by the remnants of the Ming forces in the south, Sun Kewang, who had licked his wounds for more than two years on the Indochina Peninsula, finally waited for his opportunity.

Since more than two years ago, Sun Kewang lost the elite of the Zhou army in Shaoguan, and since returning to Annan, he has been lying on the ground licking his wounds.

During this period, Sun Kewang could only tremble in the face of the Wei State, which unified the Central Plains, and was worried that the Wei army would suddenly enter the country.

On the one hand, he actively prepared for war and arranged defenses, and on the other hand, he sent people to Chang'an to submit to Gao Yihuan and ask for Gao Yihuan's canonization, and in order to show his sincerity, he also severed relations with Nanming.

After the Great Wei State unified the world, Gao Yihuan's affairs were complicated, and the Wei army was not suitable for fighting in Southeast Asia, and the Great Wei still lacked population, and there was no desire to occupy Annam and emigrate, so Gao Yihuan canonized him as the king of Vietnam in order to stabilize Sun Kewang.

Sun Kewang was canonized by Gao Yihuan, but in the face of the Wei army that was heavily assembled in Guangxi, he was still uneasy and did not dare to take rash military action.

In Shenglong City, in the palace of the Great Zhou Kingdom, Sun Kewang, the emperor of the Zhou Kingdom, was a little excited to gather the ministers to come to discuss the matter.

Although Sun Kewang proclaimed himself a vassal to Gao Yihuan and accepted the canonization of the king of Vietnam, in Annam, Sun Kewang's country name was still Zhou, and he himself was still the emperor of the Great Zhou.

This is the same as the previous Annan Kingdom, when paying tribute to China, it used the name of the Ming Dynasty and called the king of Annam, but usually used its own era name in Annam to call the emperor.

The only difference is that the emperor of Annam is just a joke, while Sun Kewang is in the Indochina Peninsula and does have the strength to be called the emperor.

As soon as the morning dawned, many ministers of the Great Zhou Kingdom gathered in the Fengtian Palace, and they all guessed what was happening and whispered in the main hall.

At this time, the general Liu Zongmin asked Xu Yixian: "Prime Minister Xu, Your Majesty summoned us here, what happened?" It can't be that the Wei army is going to attack! ”

Xu Yixian is the prime minister of the Great Zhou State, in charge of state affairs, if something happens, he should know the situation, and everyone looks at him.

Xu Yixian saw that everyone was a little worried on their faces, and said with a smile: "You can rest assured, it is not the Wei army attacking, but the Military Intelligence Department sending back a piece of information from Chang'an. ”

There was a sudden discussion in the hall, and when everyone was speculating about what kind of information, a eunuch shouted: "Your Majesty has arrived!" ”

All the ministers got up one after another, stood still on both sides, and saw Sun Kewang, who was dressed in a dragon robe, walked in with a red face and sat down on the dragon chair.

"Your Majesty the Emperor!"

"Hahaha~" Sun Kewang smiled heartily and waved his hand with a very good expression, "Let's sit down!" ”

The civil and military ministers of the Great Zhou State were all surprised when they saw Sun Kewang's expression, you must know that since he returned from the defeat in Guangdong, Sun Kewang has hardly smiled.

Now that Sun Kewang is smiling so happily, is there any happy event?

"Your Majesty, I don't know why you are so happy!" Eneng asked.

In the first battle of Shaoguan, Sun Kewang lost tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and even Liu Wenxiu, the king of Funan, was captured.

In the battle of aiding the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Cihong can be regarded as making Sun Kewang miserable, and now the generals who can be put on the table in Da Zhou are Liu Zongmin and Ai Nengqi.

Sun Kewang touched his beard and said with a smile: "Is it so obvious?" ”

"Hehe~" Sun Kewang laughed again, and then said: "There is indeed a good thing." The Wei State is in chaos! ”

This news caused an uproar in the hall, everyone looked at each other, everyone showed an extremely shocked look, Ai Nengqi was surprised: "Your Majesty, how is the Wei State in chaos?" ”

Sun Kewang said with a smile: "Gao Lao Er is fake benevolence and righteousness, and finally learned Zhu Yuanzhang and began to kill heroes." I got the news that Gao Lao Er had dismissed hundreds of officials and killed Luyi Hou Xinghao, who had followed him for many years, and the next step would definitely be to continue to kill. ”

Saying that, Sun Kewang said sympathetically: "Gao Lao Er had better kill all the heroes, and I will have no worries in Shenglong." ”

Xu Yixian saluted and said: "Your Majesty, Zhu Yuanzhang killed the heroes, the famous founding generals were almost slaughtered, and there was a group of mediocre people left, who couldn't even defend his grandson's country." After Zhu Yuanzhang slaughtered the heroes, the Ming Dynasty also had no power to expand, so that Mongolia revived, until the Ming Dynasty became the ancestor, Jing Nan played a group of generals, and the Northern Yuan was severely damaged. If Gao Yihuan slaughtered the heroes, the Wei army would definitely be powerless to threaten the Great Zhou. ”

Liu Zongmin raised his eyebrows, "What does Your Majesty mean, preparing to counterattack back?" ”

Sun Kewang shook his head, the battle of Shaoguan scared him, even if Gao Yihuan killed the hero, there was no problem for the Wei army to beat him.

Sun Kewang said in a deep voice: "Even if Gao Yihuan kills the heroes, it will be difficult for the Great Zhou to defeat Gao Yihuan, I don't plan to counterattack, but I am ready to take advantage of the internal turmoil in Wei, and the opportunity of the Ming army to contain the Wei army in the southeast, sweep away the Donghu Kingdom, and unify the entire Tiannan." ”
