Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 1089
After all, the two kings of Tang and Lu are the princes of Daming. If Wang Yan did not have enough reasons to attack the two kings, then in the eyes of the world, he was preparing to plot rebellion, and the world would suspect that he had the intention of treason, and he would From a politician to a politician, the image he has built over the years will immediately collapse, and the political ideals he insists on will also become a laughing stock.

At this time, if the two kings raise their arms, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Fujian will inevitably follow the two kings to launch a war against the king under the banner of protecting Ming and eliminating rebellion. If it is not stable, even if Wang Yan suppresses Tang Lu, it will damage the national power and let Qing and Jin take advantage of it.

The reason why the Nanjing court is stable is that it is the legal regime of the Ming Dynasty, and it is a regime that regards the son of Emperor Gaozong as the son of heaven.If Wang Yan did not have enough reason to attack the prince of the Zhu family, he would change himself from legal to illegal.

Wang Yan had long wanted to drive Tang Lu overseas, but he never had enough reason to do so.

He can only wait for Tang Lu to show his flaws, or let Tang Lu move him, then it will become Tang Lu's rebellion against the central government, and he can represent the central government to counter the rebellion in a legitimate way.

Just like Wang Yan did not have enough reasons to move the two kings of Tang and Lu, and he could not stand up to morality. Wang Yan had no fault and no conspiracy, and it would be even more unreasonable for the two kings of Tang and Lu to move him.

Wang Yan was Emperor Gaozong's Tuogu minister, representing the central government of the Ming Dynasty. If the two kings of Tang and Lu wanted to move him, it would be treason, so he could raise the banner of the central government to deal with the two kings.

If Wang Yan conspired against him, many people in Ming Dynasty would oppose him, and when the two kings of Tang and Lu rebelled, most officials in the three provinces would have to consider whether to follow or not.

From Nanjing to Huguang, Wang Yan hopes to turn passive into active and always stand on the commanding heights of morality.

At the end of May, news came from the north that Li Wang Daishan, who was co-regent with Dorgon, returned to Beijing from Moxi. At last, more than 60 people died of illness in the palace in Beijing due to exhaustion.

The political situation in the Manchu Qing Dynasty changed again because of Dai Shan's departure, and Dorgon regained the power of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

This single husband's heart is immortal. Once he digests Western Mongolia, he may have the heart to go south again.

Whether it was the Manchu Qing's southward expedition or Wang Yan's northern expedition, a big collision was inevitable.

If Wang Yan wins this battle, his prestige will be at the peak of the sky. If he is not dead, no one can replace him as the master of Ming Dynasty.

For Wang Yan's political opponents, before the result of this collision, it will be their last chance, otherwise they really can only wait for Wang Yan's sudden death before they can have a bright future.

Wang Yan didn't want someone behind him to cause chaos when he was in a fierce battle with the Manchu Qing, so before the duel, he had to integrate the Ming court and bring Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Fujian into the central ruling area.

Only by controlling these places can the Ming Dynasty be a complete Ming Dynasty, and its power will definitely be stronger than that of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Otherwise, he would have to put tens of thousands of troops to guard against Jin Shenghuan, Zheng Chenggong and others, and his hands and feet would be restrained.

The two kings of Tang and Lu were very shrewd, and it was difficult for Wang Yan to catch them.

This time he inspected Huguang, in addition to inspecting Ma Jun, he also had the intention of leading snakes out of their holes.

At first, Wang Yan thought that after he left Nanjing, Tang Lu's actions would inevitably be slack, and Jin Yiwei would be able to secretly investigate and get Tang Lu's handle, and he would be able to use judicial means to convict the two kings and exile them to Nanyang , but now it seems that judicial means cannot solve the internal problems of Ming Dynasty.

Regarding the attack on the mission, Jin Yiwei has no conclusive evidence, and the private soldiers on Taiwan Island can be said to be Zhuang Ding.The situation overseas is complicated. In Champa and Taiwan Island, the Ming Dynasty allowed big landlords to recruit Zhuang Ding to protect the land and fight against the locals.

As for the third prince, Jin Yiwei didn't have much information, at most he could re-investigate the case of Hujiazhuang, and make a move to Xiao Qihui, but this would only scare the snake, not knock down King Lu.

Wang Yan heard from Yu Taichu that the third prince might be in the hands of King Lu, but Jin Yiwei didn't know where he was hidden. He knew that it would not be easy to wait for the two to show their flaws.

King Lu is a formidable figure. If the third prince is really in his hands, Wang Yan can know his intentions with a little guesswork. The two kings took advantage of the court's loopholes to train private soldiers on Taiwan Island, and sooner or later they would attack him.

Wang Yan was silent for a while, turned sideways and hooked Yu Taichu's hand, letting him get closer, and then said in a low voice: "Continue to investigate the matter of the third prince, you must find out where the third prince is, and then snatch him out. "

"Humble job knows!" Yu Taichu hurriedly nodded in response.

Wang Yan went on to say: "In addition, hand over the things that Jin Yiwei found to the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple, let them re-investigate the case of Hujiazhuang, and move the official circles in Zhejiang!"

"Your Highness, wouldn't this be a shock to the snake?" Yu Taichu frowned. Once the court re-investigates the case of Hujiazhuang, it is equivalent to telling Zhejiang that the court is looking for the third prince. King Lu and the others will definitely hide the third prince deeper, and Jin Yiwei will have no way Let's do it.

Wang Yan shook his head and sneered, "I just want to startle the snake, King Lu can't see Xiao Qi will be taken away, I'm forcing him to take action."

Seeing that Yu Taichu was a little confused, Wang Yan went on to say: "The imperial court has already rejected King Tang's proposal to transfer Lu Song to Fujian, and Tang Lu also knows that the imperial court is very dissatisfied with their unauthorized use of troops. As a signal, the heart will inevitably be vigilant, and at this time, the court will re-investigate the Hujiazhuang case and point the finger at the Zhejiang officialdom in charge of the case. King Lu will think that the court will take advantage of this case to get rid of his power in Zhejiang. .Zhejiang is the foundation of King Lu, and he will never allow the imperial court to intervene in Zhejiang..."

Yu Taichu's eyes lit up, and he seemed to understand a little bit, "The humble job will be done immediately."

Wang Yan nodded and said, "Besides this matter, Jin Yiwei must closely monitor Tang Wang and Lu Wang, as well as Jiangxi, Fujian and Zhejiang's every move, and report to me at any time!"

Taichu Yu got up and clasped his fists, Wang Yan waved him away immediately, but he still sat there and didn't move for a long time.

The turmoil that will be stirred up this time may be more serious than when he broke with Longwu and separated Chu and Yue.He had to think comprehensively. Apart from domestic affairs, he also needed to pay attention to the two powerful enemies in the north.

When Jin and Qing were fighting Jungar, the Ming Dynasty was ruthless behind them, holding them back. If there was a big turmoil in the Ming Dynasty, these two fierce neighbors would never give up the opportunity to make trouble.

Thinking of this, Wang Yan stood up immediately, and with a wave of his hand, Lu Shikui immediately asked the guards to move the horses, Wang Yan got on the horses, and immediately ran back.

He did not return to Hankou New City, but arrived at the wharf, took a boat to Wuchang, and entered the governor's office.

Not long after, horses ran around the Yamen, went to Shangyong, Xiangyang, Nanyang and other places, called the main generals to Wuchang to discuss affairs, and also galloped to Sichuan, Jiangbei, and Guangdong.
