Chapter 110 Please seal the prince

Zhu Youjian sat down after the imperial case and asked someone to bring a seat for Zhao Ming and Zheng Sen. Then he looked at Zhao Ming and said resentfully: "I heard that Bo'an has already joined King Lu?"

Zhu Youjian admired Zhao Ming very much and once wanted to take Zhao Ming under his command. Therefore, after he learned from Zheng Sen that Zhao Ming was in Zhoushan, he immediately sent someone to Zhoushan to ask Huang Binqing to invite everyone in Jiangyin to Fujian and prepare to reuse it.

Since Longwu established the dynasty, all the people from all over the country have come to serve, which has gradually gathered some teams around Longwu. With these people, Zhu Youjian wanted to do something and regain the power of the court.

This made Zheng Zhilong, who supported Zhu Youjian, dissatisfied. He supported Zhu Youjian, but he was just a rare item. He wanted to find a puppet to command the princes. If he had a good job, he would replace him. If he had no time, he would use this as a bargaining chip to negotiate with the Qing court in exchange for greater benefits.

Zheng Zhilong and his group did not want to see Zhu Youjian's power gradually grow, so they wrote to Huang Binqing. Huang Binqing did not implement Longwu's order, but informed Longwu, Zhao Ming and others that they had defected to King Lu.

When Zhu Youjian heard that Zhao Ming had become a general of King Lu, he was actually quite annoyed and even wanted to get rid of Zhao Ming. He was just a puppet emperor, so he had no choice.

Zhao Ming hurriedly saluted and said, "Your Majesty, I have no choice but to accept the appointment of King Lu. What I think is actually to serve Your Majesty."

Zhu Youjian stretched his eyebrows, "Since that's the case, then Bo'an will stay by my side and do things for me, how about it?"

Zhao Ming shook his head, "Your Majesty has a big tree around you. It is more beneficial to Your Majesty when you are outside!"

Zhu Youjian's heart was so upset that he was very unhappy. He thought Zhao Ming was just perfunctory to him, but he said regretfully, "Your family still doesn't want to serve me!"

Although Zhu Youjian was an emperor, he had no power, like a puppet. The King of Lu was just a governor, but he was in charge of eastern Zhejiang. There were no powerful ministers like Zheng Zhilong in the small court.

As a minister, it is hard to say whether to follow Longwu to have a future or follow King Lu to have a future.

Zhu Youjian couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

"I know that Your Majesty is a great talent and strategy, and intends to restore it. However, now the country and the court are in trouble, but Your Majesty is unable to show its ambitions! I am in the court, but I am just a guard and outside. I should train a strong team for Your Majesty. If you have great things, you only need a decree. I will set up a large army and run there, obey Your Majesty's orders, and be your Majesty's foreign aid!" Zhao Ming said sincerely.

After hearing this, Zhu Youjian couldn't help but feel moved. He didn't expect Zhao Ming to say such words. It was obvious that Zhao Ming knew his situation at this time.

Indeed, Zheng Zhilong was domineering in the court, and as an emperor, he could not achieve anything. Zhao Ming followed him and at most protected his safety, he could not do anything.

Zhao Ming could think so much, obviously he had carefully analyzed his current situation.

Now that Zheng Sen is present, Zhu Youjian and Zhao Ming are not able to talk deeply about the internal affairs of the Longwu court. Zhu Youjian was silent for a moment and asked, "I am very relieved to Bo'an have this heart. What's wrong with Bo'an coming to Fujing this time?"

Zhao Ming did not answer positively, but asked: "Your Majesty thinks the situation is now?"

As the emperor, Zhu Youjian belonged to the country and the people, and his destiny survived and perished with the Ming Dynasty.

Ministers could surrender to the Qing Dynasty, choose to live in seclusion, and have a way to choose, but as the emperor, he had no choice or retreat, and his fate was already tied to the fate of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhu Youjian is paying attention to the situation in the world every moment.

At this time, Zhu Youjian suddenly stood up, walked to the map that made him lose his mind, turned his back to the two of them, and said in a deep voice: "Two Qing families come and see!"

Zhao Ming and Zheng Sen stood behind Zhu Youjian, staring at the map, and found that the information marked on it was 100% complete.

When Zhu Youjian faced the map, he said with a heavy expression: "Bo'an asked me about the situation in the world, I can only say that it is as dangerous as a burden!"

As he said that, he pointed at a place, which was exactly the direction of Huizhou. "In October, Boluo broke Huizhou, Jin Sheng was captured and taken to Nanjing and killed. Boluo's army had already moved south from Huizhou, entered western Zhejiang, captured Quzhou Prefecture, and the troops headed straight to Xianxia Pass to threaten Fujian."

Zhu Youjian pointed to another place, "After Jiangxi, the rebel general Jin Shenghuan occupied Nanchang, he first defeated Fuzhou, killed Zhu Ciyan, the king of Yongning, and then defeated Ji'an, occupied Guangchang and Yuanzhou, and killed my governor Kuang Zhao. Jiangxi province, only Ganzhou and Annan were left, which were still in the hands of the Ming Dynasty. If southern Jiangxi loses, the enemy troops can drive directly to northern Fujian, and then Fujian will be in danger!"

"In addition, in Huguang, the enemy soldiers occupied Wuchang, Jingzhou, and Xiangyang, and were in the form of Chu. He Tengjiao only occupied Changsha, and there were bandits in Hunan, which was worrying!" Zhu Youjian pointed to the map, "I will look at the eunuchs who wiped out the prefectures, cities and righteous troops marked on the map one by one. Seeing the Ming Dynasty's territory shrinking, the sense of crisis in my heart is no longer enough. Now the two Qing troops are about to come to Fujian, but the court has no plans. The Ming Dynasty is in danger!"

The Qing army was pressing forward step by step, but the Ming Dynasty was in a mess. Outside the Longwu court, there was a small court in King Lu and Zhejiang East, and there was Zheng Zhilong's autocratic and domineering power and obstructing the resistance of the Qing Dynasty. He was really a sign of a destruction of the country.

Looking at the gradually shrinking territory and the disappearing rebels one after another, the sense of crisis came to his face.

Zhao Ming and Zheng Sen looked at each other, then saluted at Zhu Youjian's back and said, "Your Majesty, the current situation of the country is indeed in crisis, but as long as the Ming Dynasty is united, it may not be impossible to fight!"

Zhu Youjian looked back at Zhao Ming, and suddenly sneered, "It's not easy to unite and be united! If you don't talk about anything else, just talk about King Lu. He doesn't accept my edict and kill my envoy. Have you ever thought about being united with me?"

Zhao Ming hurriedly saluted and said, "Your Majesty, this is not the wish of Your Highness, but the people in eastern Zhejiang. This time I came to Fujing to meet Your Majesty, and came to pay homage to Your Majesty on behalf of Eastern Zhejiang."

Who is the conflict between Zhu Youjian and King Zhu Yihai of Lu, who is the leader of the Ming Dynasty? The two of them are actually natural allies in resisting the Qing Dynasty and maintaining the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yihai were both descendants of the Ming Taizu. They had no way out in the fight against the Qing Dynasty. They should have united closely and lived and died together, but the contradiction between who would decide the matter destroyed the possibility of unity.

After hearing Zhao Ming's words, Zhu Youjian showed a look of surprise on his face and couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Boan, do you say, King Lu and Zhejiang East are willing to surrender to me?" Before Zhao Ming could reply, Zhu Youjian's face calmed down again and said in a deep voice: "Why did Zhu Yihai suddenly surrender?"

If Zhejiang East can surrender, it will naturally be a great thing for Zhu Youjian.

There are 100,000 soldiers in eastern Zhejiang, and the area is also rich. If Zhejiang supports Zhu Youjian, he will have a force that can compete with Zheng Zhilong and can gradually get rid of Zheng Zhilong's control.

However, King Lu was not a good person and was quite ambitious. How could he suddenly surrender? Zhu Youjian's position made him a little suspicious, doubting what the intentions were of Zhao Ming and Zhu Yihai.

Zhao Ming said seriously: "Just as Your Majesty said, the country is already in danger. Now that the Northern Barbarians are in great power, and if there is another dispute within the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will be in danger. After the King of Lu failed to attack Hang, he realized that it was difficult to fight against the Qing army with the power of Zhejiang East. I tried my best to persuade King Lu, and King of Lu finally agreed to be the righteous."

"Boan, how did you persuade King Lu?" Zhu Youjian looked at Zhao Ming in surprise. He still hoped that King Lu would really surrender.

Zhao Ming bowed, suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhu Youjian, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I ask Your Majesty to make His Highness the King of Lu the National Crown. The 100,000 soldiers in Zhejiang East will be determined to be your Majesty's leader, and you will never refuse to die!"
