After Zhu Youlang finished speaking, the ministers in the tent were all angry and their blood was boiling.

Especially Zhang Jiayu, Wang Fuzhi and Chen Bowen, who were born in literati, understood the importance of the word "people" and the meaning of Zhu Youlang's saying "The country belongs to me and the people's."

As rulers, putting the people in a higher position rather than looking at them from a slave perspective means that the people will greatly enhance their sense of belonging to the Ming Dynasty, increase their enthusiasm for "anti-Qing", and thus greatly accelerate the pace of the Ming Dynasty's rejuvenation.

The generals were immersed in the picture described by Zhu Youlang as "the vast ocean of people's war". If all the Chinese were mobilized, what else would the Tartars have to fear?

"I am willing to devote all my efforts to the emperor's cause of reviving the Ming Dynasty, and only after death!" Zhang Jiayu fell to the ground first and expressed his excitement.

"I am willing to devote all my efforts to the emperor's cause of reviving the Ming Dynasty, and only after death!" As soon as he expressed his opinion, Lin Cha, Wang Fuzhi, Chen Bowen and others all knelt down and said loudly.

"The sinners are willing to devote themselves to the emperor's cause of reviving the Ming Dynasty, and only after death!" Li Chengdong, Meng Wenjie, Yuan Pengnian, Sun Zhongming, and Li Yuanyin were also in a state of excitement and quickly made a loud voice.

"Your Majesty, after your teachings, the sinners want to go to the battlefield immediately and kill the Tartars!" Meng Wenjie was also well-behaved. After expressing his opinion, he followed another sentence.

Seeing that his words worked, Zhu Youlang was very happy: "Let's be calm, as long as the king and his ministers are united, why worry about the great cause not being achieved?"

Zhang Jiayu, Lin Cha, Wang Fuzhi and Chen Bowen all stood up, but Li Chengdong and other surrendered generals did not dare to move.

"Tingzhen, you guys get up too." Zhu Youlang said again.

Li Chengdong stood up after he thanked him.

"You have no food, and I have no food yet. So, Yuanzi, Nong and Tingzhen stay with me to have food, so everyone else will leave. Mingwei, you can treat Jiemei and the others well, and you can use less wine."

Mingwei is the name of Lin Cha, and Jiemei is the name of Yuan Pengnian.

...

Li Chengdong has a big appetite, and he can't let go of his meal with the emperor. He can't let go of his cheeks and eat big. Moreover, the emperor and Zhang Jiayu pay attention to "no words to eat", and the silent atmosphere is very tense.

This is not eating, this is suffering.

So, when the emperor had enough to put down his chopsticks, he quickly stopped eating, feeling that he was not half full.

After Alan served to rinse his mouth and clean his hands, he took down the cup and plate. When Zhu Youlang saw that there were very few foods in front of Li Chengdong, he knew that he was a little nervous and had not eaten enough.

"Tingzhen, I know, you can't calm down. Are you still worried about Songjiang's family?" Zhu Youlang asked.

Li Chengdong was stunned. The emperor was like the worm in his stomach. How could he know everything?

"Reply to the emperor, yes, the criminals dare not deceive the king." Li Chengdong hurriedly stood up and bowed and replied.

"Don't blame the general or not, you surrender me and you will be my minister."

"Yes, I follow the order."

"Don't worry, I have sent someone to Songjiang to pick up your family. I think I'm already on the way at this time." Zhu Youlang said.

"Ah? This, this..., the emperor's great kindness is unforgettable. I will never forget it. I will not hesitate to repay this to death!" Li Chengdong was shocked when he heard this, but then moved, and quickly knelt down to thank him.

"Thinking of parents, wife and children is a normal human nature. If I ask my ministers to work hard, I have to think about it for them. Let's be calm."

"Your Majesty, please give me what to do? You will go through fire and water without hesitation!" Li Chengdong swept away the haze that was pressing on his heart. When he stood up, his eyes shone and his face looked excited.

"Don't be excited, sit down, listen to my details." Zhu Youlang waved his hand and ordered Li Chengdong to sit down.

"I can only keep you overnight. Tomorrow morning, you will bring a small number of troops back to Huizhou, pretend to make a successful breakthrough, use your identity to recruit the remaining troops of Fujian, and then pacify Fujian. It is likely to attract revenge from the Qing soldiers. Do not fight hard and act according to the principles I just mentioned. Even losing territory is not scary. Just preserve your own strength. The bottom line I give you is that as long as Chaozhou is not lost, I will give my dynasty two to three years, even if you make a great contribution."

"I promise to complete the task. If there is any mistake in Chaozhou, I will come and see you." Li Chengdong didn't expect that the task Zhu Youlang gave him was so easy. In his opinion, it would be too easy to defend Chaozhou within two to three years.

Zhu Youlang put Li Chengdong on the east side, and there was some consideration.

In theory, it is most appropriate to prevent Li Chengdong from becoming bigger. However, in history, after Li Chengdong surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, he was sent to Jiangxi. But strangely, he, who had won every battle, lost one battle against the Shangqing soldiers and died on the battlefield. Is it not his good land in the north?

With such doubts, Zhu Youlang finally decided to put him east, which might change his destiny.

"The war we fight is a war of the people, and we must treat the people well. You are not good at civil affairs, just focus on fighting. And farming!"

"I'm here!"

"I have appointed you as the governor of Fujian and govern Fujian well for me. In addition, we must cooperate with Tingzhen, who is in charge of military affairs, and you are responsible for the supply of food and grass for the army."

"This, the emperor, I don't want to go to Fujian, I am willing to stay by the emperor's side and ask for advice every now and then." Wang Fuzhi didn't expect the emperor to send him out, and refused without thinking.

He asked himself that he was a literati, and his strengths in doing research were his own interests. He felt that he had benefited a lot from the past few days of contact with the emperor. He was thinking of recording the emperor's words and deeds, and publishing a previous book in the future, so that he could keep his fortune forever.

"Hahaha, if you don't want to be promoted, you are probably Wang Rennong is the first one. I know that you are thinking about studying hard? But, now that the farmer is full of swords and weapons, my Yongli Dynasty is unstable, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is just like a piece of paper. We must first defeat the country and have a peaceful environment to do research. Besides, it is not better to use what you have learned to guide practice? You have a deep hatred with the Qing court. When you go to Fujian and cooperate well with Tingzhen, you can beat the Qing soldiers hard. Wouldn't you be happy to have a grudge? I promise you that when the world is peaceful in the future, I will wander with you, taste tea and discuss the truth, and do your best to do your research well. How about it?"

"Okay, I'll take the order."

Wang Fuzhi heard the emperor say this and thought about it carefully. The emperor asked him to go to Fujian and take on the important task of governing one party. Although it was important to use it, there were probably two meanings. One was that he had fully understood the emperor's political ideas in the past few days and could keep in line with him. The other meaning was probably that he wanted to monitor Li Chengdong.
