"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I can guarantee that the benefits will be more abundant than before."

Zheng Zhilong was full of joy when he reached a final agreement with Emperor Chongzhen. Emperor Chongzhen moved south, but left all the important officials and honorary officials in Tianjin (take away a few people). So wouldn’t they let Zheng Zhilong slaughter?

See who dares not pay money and keeps moving in Tianjin?

I am not afraid that the positions in the Southern Ming Dynasty will be taken first by others.

Jinling itself has an administrative team. Each carrot and a pit, and there are only so many pits. If they are occupied first, they will be in trouble.

Emperor Chongzhen's face was full of joy! It was a great joy to be able to kill the borers from other countries.

Although the two sides split the share this time, and because the dominance is in the hands of Zheng Zhilong, Emperor Chongzhen had already thought that his actual income would be far less than his due income, but as long as he could slaughter the all-time nobles and officials in the court, he felt a sense of hysteria.

Wang Chengen, who was standing next to him, lowered his head, his face full of complicated expressions.

Long live my life, if you were so shameless, the Ming Dynasty would not end there.

In Wang Chengen's eyes, Emperor Chongzhen was naturally not wrong at all because of his hard work, frugality, and worrying about the country. Those who were wrong were the ministers below who only had to eat and did not do serious business.

Just like what Guizhuang wrote in "Eternal Sorrow", I hate and hate these left-class officials who received the emperor's grace on weekdays, with a black gauze covering their heads, and a golden belt covering their waists. Today, they bowed their heads one by one, and carried a few articles to persuade them to enter the court. There are also those who are called literate literati, who have a few words to ascend to the extreme. Those stupid princes and marquis who are not in charge of affairs are often held in Dongcheng Ao, holding gold treasures. The delicate female charming woman is addicted to her daytime posture. The handsome gentry often leads them to worship Longyang materials. It is even more hateful that the surnames in the nine qu are sad, and the thousands of officials in the three halls celebrate the morning court, and even more disasters cannot escape.

Therefore, he would not persuade him a word, and he would only have the same joy in his heart.

As a result, the matter was finalized. The news soon spread. Three days later, the emperor would take a boat south on a good day.

Because of the tight ships, the number of escorts was limited. Apart from the royal group, the rest were a few trusted officials, and if the Ning family was also included in the imperial relatives.

"So quickly? How could Zheng Zhilong just returned to Tianjin yesterday?" Yuan Yuzong screamed in surprise.

The one opposite him was Zhang Jinyan, the Minister of War, who was sick like Wei Zaode. Because Li Zicheng felt that there was no need to continue hiding at this time, he secretly communicated with both of them, and they also understood that they had their own comrades in the Ming court.

"Zheng Zhilong arrived at Tianjin around the hour of yesterday. He first met Jiang Dejing for a while, and then met the emperor. He met the second time this morning. He had a full day and decided on it?"

Yuan Yuzong couldn't believe it. How big is this migration south? This is the biggest capital for Zheng Zhilong to bargain with Emperor Chongzhen. He actually agreed in just a few words?

"Is this Minhai King really a loyal minister?" Yuan Yuzong was full of self-deprecating.

Zhang Jinyan was speechless. He was the Minister of War, and he was different from Yuan Yuzong. This time the emperor went south, he must have been with him. In this way, when will he return to the capital openly?

The longer this time is, the more unfavorable it will be for him. After a long time, not only will his merits be light, but the positions in the court in the capital are also occupied. What can he do?

Zhang Jinyan was full of sorrow at this moment.

However, just when Zhang Jinyan was worried, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet Wei Zaode was at the home of the Grand Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue and the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, the governor of the grain transportation, the military training, and the military training. The Minister of Personnel Li Yuzhi was at the home of the Minister of Works Chen Biqian, the left governor of the Central Army Governor’s Office, the family of Tian Hongyu, the family of the father-in-law Zhou Kui, the family of the Duke of Chengguo Zhu Chunchen, the family of Dingguo Xu Yunzhen, and so on. In the city of Tianjin, the family of royal relatives, Duke Hou, the nobles and ministers in the court, were surprised to find that they had not received the emperor's order to move south.

One by one, the noble servants of the noble family ran out to inquire about the news, but found that the four families of the great and noble family, including the British Duke Zhang Shize, the Xinle Marquis Liu Wenbing, the son-in-law Gong Yonggu, and the quasi-imperial editor Ning Zhen, moved south. Even the father-in-law Zhou Kui and his family were left in Tianjin. Among the ministers, Jiang Dejing was one, Li Mingrui was one, and there were only a few people including Li Banghua, Wang Jiayan, Ni Yuanlu, Fan Jingwen, Shi Bangyao. The chief assistant Zhou Yanru was bedridden and could not get sick. The emperor issued a special order. After he recovered, the Clippers immediately sent to Jinling.

If you look closely, you will find that the emperor is loyal to the emperor. Although the ministers in the court are all confidants of the emperor, or those who recommended to move south at the beginning were mostly from Jiangnan.

The list selected by Emperor Chongzhen was not decided rashly.

The news spread very quickly in Abacus City. After all, was there any whim that Zheng Zhilong deliberately made people feel? Then Jiading Bo Zhou Kui and Taikang Bo Zhang Guoji immediately ran to see their daughter.

Shen Tingyang didn't know what kind of reply the two would get. He was drinking with Zheng Zhilong on the East City Tower of Abacus City.

There are no outsiders around, and Shen Tingyang spoke very boldly. "My uncle has already committed crimes in the capital earlier. Now he is going to have another incident. Wouldn't he be full of enemies in the future?" And he offended so many high-ranking officials and nobles, and Zheng Zhilong still wants to integrate into it, but he is not thinking about the ghost?

"I don't go to Jinling. If those people hate each other, what can I do to me?" Zheng Zhilong's face was calm. This was the profit of "million taels" and it would be enough for him to support his army for several years.

In the future, even Emperor Chongzhen would not want to birds anymore. He would feel no pressure at all when he slaughtered these fat sheep.

Shen Tingyang opened his mouth wide, just like Jiang Dejing yesterday. The first time he heard Zheng Zhilong's straightforward thoughts, he was surprised.

"But in the future, I will have to rely on brother Ji Ming (Shen Tingyang) to take care of one or two more times."

Shen Tingyang shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Although I am quite favored by His Majesty, I am not a serious person after all, and I am currently in a low position and have no qualifications for the court station. Where can I have this qualification?"

"Brother Ji Ming was joking, right? The most important thing in the court goes south in the future is the Jianghuai River defense, and it is the time to rely on the Chongsha Boat Gang. Isn't it easy for you to be promoted to the official position? Even if you have excuses, you have the best way to save the driver?"

This time, when Emperor Chongzhen and others were sent south, although the Zheng Navy would split up some of them to accompany him, the main force was the Shen family's sand boat.

Because of the safety of the sea, we must dock as much as possible, so we can only use the Shen family's flat sand boat instead of the Zheng family's sea boat.

"This is the credit for understanding. Even if the emperor sends you straight to Qingyun, the civil and military officials in the court can't say anything. Besides, the sincerity of Jiang Cao is not a stubborn person. Compared to these days, the Shen family has become very hot with him. Then you will be the deputy minister, wouldn't it be just and beautiful?"

The two sat on the city gate for less than an hour, and a large number of dignitaries gathered under the city gate. In Shen Tingyang's opinion, each of them could not be easily punished.

But Zheng Zhilong didn't care at all.

Chen Tingyang didn’t know that Zheng Zhilong came to protect him, “Thank you, Uncle Master, saved me. Otherwise, I would not be able to offend such a noble person!”

"Brother Ji Ming is here to sit down and see me go and send them away!"

When Zheng Zhilong heard the follower say that everything he should have arrived, he got up and went to a teahouse under the city tower. He saw ordinary nobles led by Duke Cheng and Duke Ding, and many civil and military ministers, but there were no eunuchs led by Wang Yongzuo, Cao Huachun, and Wang Zhixin.

Now, the most anxious thing is these eunuchs. However, Cao Huachun and the others were very eye-catching, and they left immediately after they came. Before leaving, they asked someone to tell Zheng Zhilong, saying that they all understood.

Zheng Zhilong wanted to laugh after hearing this.

Cao Huachun followed him when Emperor Chongzhen left Beijing, and then he got on the pirate ship and couldn't get off. He had no choice but to ask some of his nephews and relatives in his family to come to Tianjin to settle down. Fortunately, the Cao family itself is in Wuqing County, not far from Tianjin, but also has industries in Tianjin.

Cao Huachun was playing a family division. His five brothers, three brothers, and the fourth brothers were rich, and the fourth brothers were diligent and died early. Cao Huachun had the closest relationship with Cao Huayu, the left governor of the Houjun Governor's Office, who was an official in the same dynasty. However, in June of the 16th year of Chongzhen, Cao Huayu passed away and his elder brother Cao Huachun was already old. Cao Huachun was on the pirate ship this time and could not get off. He had no choice but to take some of his children to Jinling, and Cao Huachun continued to stay in Wuqing.

When Emperor Chongzhen went south, many eunuchs either went out to supervise the army and surrendered to Li Zicheng, such as Du Zhizhi and Du Xun, who were left by Emperor Chongzhen to defend the Forbidden City. I think they were either dead now, but they were surrendered. For example, Wang Dehua.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen had many empty seats around him. It would be awful if they were one step late and were snatched away by others.

If the eunuch loses his power, his fate will only be more miserable than that of civil servants and nobles.

"Uncle, 50,000 taels are not enough?" A young man next to Cao Huachun shouted in shock.

"Another 50,000 taels." Cao Huachun didn't even open his eyes.

Zheng Zhilong had a knife in the capital. Will this second knife be lighter than the first knife? Who would have spared him easily when he arrived in Jinling?

As long as Zheng Zhilong is not a fool, he will understand the consequences of doing so. But he couldn't resist the temptation. After reaching out to take the hot money, he would just do it all the time and make a lot of money.

"Will Zheng Zhilong be satisfied if the money is not enough? Aren't you afraid that you will end up in the fish's belly if you eat the slaughter noodles on the way?"

Based on Cao Huachun's understanding of Emperor Chongzhen, the interview between Emperor Chongzhen and Zheng Zhilong reached an agreement so easily. It can only be said that Emperor Chongzhen defeated all the conditions of Zheng Zhilong without refuting at all.

The reason must be exactly the same as the fear of eating "Ban Dao Noodles".

This is also a hero who knows the times. People have to bow their heads under the eaves. No matter how they promise, they have promised to go out and go to a safe place to gain a foothold.

"Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhilong, it's really a habit of pirates, a habit of pirates..." Zhou Kui returned to his residence and cursed Zheng Zhilong for his son Zhou Jian, nephew Zhou Ming, Zhou Duo, and Zhou Xuan without saying a word.

"I still want money?" Zhou Jian was the first to scream after he figured out why.

The Zhou family's money is his in the future. He has already handed over 200,000 taels. Now the damn Zheng Zhilong is asking for money again. This is cutting off his heart.

"Dad, you are the current father-in-law, your son is the current uncle, and the prince's uncle. Even if you don't give a penny, how can his surname Zheng be our Zhou family?" Zhou Jian started his character.
