Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 365 Feast of Power: Kyushu Association!
After the unanimous approval of the policy on bureaucratic reform, Chen Yunfu gave the officials all over the world a blow, and by the way, let all the officials present understand how determined the central government is for this reform.

It's not just a matter of determination, but also strength.

The unanimous approval of the Military and Political Council means that at this moment, the circle with the highest power in the Ming Dynasty is completely of one mind with Chen Yunfu.

What one person cannot do, a group of people can definitely do.

"It will be the New Year in two days. You guys have a lot of fun in the capital these two days. On the evening of the New Year's Eve, there will be a banquet at the Huagai Palace, so you can have a drink."

Chen Yunfu announced the adjournment of the meeting, and he hadn't even left Fengtian Hall when an obituary was sent in.

Feng Sheng, the former Duke of the Song Dynasty, died of illness.

Didn't make it through this year.

For a while, Chen Yunfu felt a little melancholy, but he rushed to Feng Sheng's mansion with Lan Yu, Chang Mao, Mu Chun, Zhu Wei and others to express his condolences.

Why did you bring Zhu Li?

For example, why did Zhu Di die after Jing Nan, and why did Chen Yunfu let Zhu Xi, his dark enemy who had been monitoring him for many years, let go.

Because Zhu Wei is also Feng Sheng's son-in-law!
In other words, Zhu Wei and Chang Mao are still brother-in-law.

There was a sound of weeping and howling in Feng's residence, and the clouds were gloomy and inexplicable.

"The dead are gone, mourn the living."

Chen Yunfu patted the hand of Feng Sheng's nephew, Feng Cheng, and comforted with a sigh: "Song Guogong has no children under his knees. From now on, the Feng family still needs you to carry the banner."

Feng Cheng is the eldest brother of Feng Sheng, the son of Feng Guoyong, the former Duke of Cheng, and his sister is Mu Ying's daughter-in-law, in other words, he is Mu Chun's biological uncle.

Although he left, Chen Yunfu's promise to Feng Sheng or the Feng family would not change. Feng Cheng, as the second generation head of the Feng family, naturally knew something before Feng Sheng was alive. He put his head firmly, wiped away his tears and tapped his head on the ground.

"Thank you Grand Master."

This is not a kneeling ceremony, because he is now serving filial piety, and it is a funeral ceremony for a filial son to kowtow to the guests of condolence.

After getting a piece of silk money, Chen Yunfu stayed for a while, and before leaving, he said to Feng Cheng: "Tomorrow, alas, you should take some time to come to the Huagai Palace tomorrow. The assistant is going to hold the Kyushu Conference. After all, your Feng family is A branch of Kyushu."

As I mentioned before, the Kyushu Club is a meeting in which the kings of Kyushu are qualified to attend as non-voting delegates. It is a place to share cakes. Feng Sheng is dead, and now Feng Cheng is naturally on top.

The grief in Feng Cheng's heart suddenly lessened, and he nodded: "The last general will definitely attend the meeting tomorrow."

After saying yes, Chen Yunfu stopped talking, turned around and left Feng's residence to go home.

In the carriage, Yang Shiqi saw that Chen Yunfu's complexion was not very good, so he carefully served tea, and the latter spoke suddenly.

"Lan Yu, Chang Mao, Feng Cheng, and Mu Chun, there are only four of them. Excluding Zhongzhou and Jinzhou, there are still three vacancies for Kyushu kings. Shiqi, who do you think this assistant should be given to?"

Yang Shiqi was so frightened that he almost knocked down the tea bowl, and said hastily.

"For such an important matter, the lower officials dare not talk nonsense, Fu Wei is the Grand Master's sage."

"Do you want to be?"

Yang Shiqi put down the teapot, knelt on the ground with a slap, and paused: "I don't have any qualifications or incompetence. I don't deserve it. I just want to follow the grand master for the rest of my life, and repay the grand master's kindness."

Chen Yunfu didn't help him, nor let him get up, but just looked out the window, his thoughts flew away.

"The four currently sealed off are all military generals. We still need to pay attention to the balance of civil and military affairs. I will save one for you, and another for Shao Ziheng. As for the last one, we will talk about it when the great voyage starts in the future."

Yang Shiqi didn't know what a great voyage was, but he didn't want to understand it now. He just heard the phrase "I'll leave one for you" and his whole body trembled with excitement, and he kowtowed on the ground.

"The next official, the next official is smashed to pieces, it is, it is difficult to repay the grand master's great grace."

The carriage stopped, and Chen Yunfu got up and walked past Yang Shiqi, leaving a sentence: "Tomorrow, you will attend the Kyushu meeting and be a clerk."

The Kyushu Meeting is the first time that the kings of Kyushu have gathered for a meeting. This is the most important meeting. It is a great honor to be able to attend, even as a clerk.

Because this means that Yang Shiqi will witness with his own eyes a gluttonous feast of power.

It was indeed a gluttonous feast.

The next morning, when Chen Yunfu arrived at Huagai Palace, Lan Yu and the others had already been waiting here.

The first Kyushu meeting!

The Canopy Palace, which was originally used as a banquet for the royal family of Zhu Ming, has been completely transformed into a set of maps and drawings. Except for the huge round table in the center, there is nothing on the left and right sides, only one side of wood.

A map is hung on each board.

And the center of this huge round table is hollowed out, filled with a rectangular sand table two feet long and six feet long.

"Meet the Master!"

The four of them stood up, bowed together, and at the same time, they all looked suspiciously at Yang Shiqi who was following behind Chen Yunfu.

Can an outsider be allowed to participate in the Kyushu Club?

"Shiqi is the secretary of the meeting today, responsible for taking notes."

Chen Yunfu simply said a word without any explanation, and went straight to his seat and stretched out his hand to press down.

"All sit down."

"As for us, let's hold the meeting first, and then go to Fengtian Hall to discuss the new military system with the generals in Beijing and the commanders of the capitals from various provinces who came to Beijing."

"Today's meeting has only one agenda item, and that is the issue of military expenditures for the war against North Korea."

Chen Yunfu looked around, and said straight to the point: "There are no outsiders today, you can say anything in the open, and I don't hide it, you can also speak freely.

What is the reason for the war against North Korea? Everyone is clear. After the war, the land of Sanhan will be merged into Liaozhou. Liaozhou belongs to the Chang family, so there is a problem that needs to be discussed.

The imperial court dispatched an army of 20 and may continue to supplement it in the future. Millions of stones or even tens of millions of stones of grain, countless ships, weapons and armor, and military supplies to support this war will be wasteful. An astronomical sum, Chang Mao, how do you plan to repay the debt after Liaozhou is established. "

The Kyushu Club is the highest-level meeting. It sounds so lofty, but in essence, it is bargaining.

Political interaction needs to bring benefits, in other words, investment must have returns.

The whole country expends its national power to support your Chang family in opening up the Liaozhou Dynasty.

Chang Mao himself understood this point in his heart, but he was a martial artist, so he really couldn't think of a specific plan for repaying the debt, so he said for a long time: "Please give me an idea from the grand master."

Yang Shiqi's eyelids twitched as he sat behind Chen Yunfu.

The meeting between the kings of Kyushu is such a virtue!
