During this expedition, except for Qian Qianyi, Wang Fu did not bring any civil officials around him. He only needed to deal with the aftermath after the victory. Emperor Anqing intended to stay for a while before some civil officials rushed from Nanjing to Anqing. Now the six officials in Anqing are basically ready. After this order, Anqing's original prefectural office seemed a little crowded.

"I will meet the emperor, long live my emperor! Long live! Long live!"

"Dear friends."

"Long live thank you." Everyone stood on both sides, with a hint of inquisitive look in their eyes. These days, the emperor's energy was all focused on the expansion of the Yulin Guards' army, so how could he suddenly summon the ministers?

"Dear friends, today I have summoned you all over here. I have announced that the rebels have sent envoys to Anqing and declared that they are willing to fight against the Qing army with the court. I wonder what you all think?"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the entire yamen buzzed and suddenly became lively. Many people looked excited and shouted: "Emperor, I am against it, and I will kill the late emperor. The emperor should think of the hatred of the king and father, and must not unite with him."

"The emperor, I also object to the fact that the bandits destroyed the foundation of our Ming Dynasty and must not unite with the bandits."

"Your Majesty, please kill the rioters and eliminate the thoughts of the bandits."

...

Wang Fu immediately regretted discussing this matter with the ministers. The scene in front of him was just like the news leaked when Chongzhen and the Qing Dynasty discussed peace. The ministers accused the emperor of surrendering the peace talks with the Qing Dynasty, losing the backbone of the Ming Dynasty. They did not consider whether the Ming Dynasty could fight on both sides at that time. Chongzhen had to blame all the blame on the Minister of War Chen Xinjia and beheaded Chen Xinjia and abandoned the market.

Now the bandits are still the same. In short, the bandits killed the late emperor and the court must not compromise with them at all. It seemed that they had taken the great justice and did not consider whether it was beneficial or harmful to the court to join forces with Li Zicheng.

Seeing that the matter could not be discussed at all, Wang Fu had to wave his hand: "I understand what you all mean. This matter is temporarily put on hold and retreat to the court."

"Emperor, Emperor." The ministers were not satisfied and tried hard to stop the emperor. Unfortunately, Wang Fu ignored it and walked into the back door directly.

As soon as the emperor left, the ministers immediately surrounded Qian Qianyi: "Mr. I hope to tell the emperor that the bandits and the Ming Dynasty are still national enemies. The emperor must not be confused. If you join forces with the bandits, the emperor's reputation will inevitably be stained."

"Yes, sir, the bandits are not trustworthy. sir, sir, must persuade the emperor to stop."

Qian Qianyi smiled and said, "It must be, it must." In fact, he had no intention of telling the emperor these words at all.

When he arrived at the backyard, Wang Fu had just sat down and immediately ordered: "Come on, please bring Yan Yingyuan and Li Chengdong."

Wang Fu was not Chongzhen. He would not give up his thoughts just because all the ministers opposed him. The ministers opposed Li Zicheng so fiercely, but instead made Wang Fu determined that Li Zicheng's actions in the capital had completely lost their hearts. Even if he got out of the predicament this time, he would not get the support of the gentry.

The people's hearts are wonderful. Sometimes they are useless, sometimes they are very useful. If Li Zicheng did not rush to fight Wu Sangui after he captured Beijing a few months ago, and only brought some of the main forces to fight, but mobilized all his forces to fight again in the north, perhaps he had already settled in the world, but he would not come again, but Li Zicheng would find that his path would become narrower and more difficult.

Since that's the case, why are you still afraid that Li Zicheng would pose a threat to him? Wang Fu, who figured this out, was so happy that when Yan Yingyuan and Li Chengdong arrived, they clearly saw a smile on the emperor's face.

"I will meet the emperor, long live my emperor! Long live my emperor! Long live my life!" The two saluted the emperor together.

"Two good friends, please be calm, Yan Aiqing, how about the recruitment of the new army?" Before Yan Yingyuan got up, Wang Fu asked impatiently.

Yan Yingyuan said calmly: "Return to the emperor, the new army has recruited more than 20,000 people. As long as there are ten more days, I can complete the recruitment of the new army."

"Very good, I will hand over the new army to my dear. The recruitment of the new army is just the beginning. The key is to train Youshu. I will hand over the new army to you. I hope you can train a strong army in the shortest time."

"I will never let down the emperor's expectations."

Wang Fu turned his gaze to Li Chengdong: "Dongpingbo, you have been fighting with Chuanggui for many years and know the truth and reality. I have something to you. I don't know if you want it?"

"The emperor has everything and orders, and I will go through fire and water without hesitation."

"I want to mobilize some military rations and forage and trade in counter-trading. You are fully responsible for this matter. I wonder if you are willing?"

Li Chengdong was shocked. The fierce opposition from the civil servants in the lobby of the prefectural government just now was still in his ears. Unexpectedly, the emperor would do something else immediately behind him. He couldn't help but hesitate. If this matter was leaked, Chen Xinjia was a lesson from the past.

Seeing the hesitant look on Li Chengdong's face, Wang Fu knew his concerns. He just said that he went through fire and water just now, but he should not take it seriously: "Don't worry, of course, it's best to keep this matter confidential. If it is leaked, I will not use you as a shield. If I do it, I will do it. Why are you afraid? Humph, these people are so aggressively opposed, so I will be clean. Now that the Tartars occupy the capital, the grain in the capital is cut off, where does the food in the capital come from? Hehe, they think I am blind."

Li Chengdong never thought about this problem. When he heard the emperor mention it, he was shocked. Could anyone dare to sell grain to the Tartars? Even if there is, how can they transport the grain to the capital?

It was also from Li Zicheng's shortage of food this time that the Qing Dynasty had occupied the capital for more than four months. Without the southern grain transportation, even if there was grain storage in the capital, it had been used up. Why didn't he hear the news that the capital was short of food? Where did the food from the people come from? It was impossible to transform from the deep mountains and forests. The only possibility is that the food from the south can still reach Beijing. As for the channels for transporting grain, two words flashed through Wang Fu's mind.

Only sea transportation can transport grain from the south to Beijing on a large scale, but the imperial court will not notice it. Moreover, sea transportation can reduce the loss to the end. In addition, Beijing was first breached by Li Zicheng and then breached by Manchus, and the population also decreased. The required grain can be reduced much compared to the canal transportation, so the grain prices in the south will still decline.

No wonder Zheng Zhilong surrendered to the Qing Dynasty without resisting when the Qing army headed south. It turned out that he had been hooking up with Manchus for a long time. Unfortunately, Zheng Zhilong made the wrong plan. He thought that he could still enjoy wealth and glory after surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, but unexpectedly, he was banned first and then beheaded in the city.
