The ancestor of Zhu Yihai, king of Lu, was Zhu Yuanzhang's tenth son, Zhu Fen, who was enfeoffed in Yanzhou, Shandong.

In 1642, when Azig plundered Shandong, he broke through Yanzhou and almost killed all the people in Lu Wang's mansion.

Zhu Yihai's elder brother, Zhu Yipai, the king of Lu at that time, hanged himself.

Zhu Yihai's main wife and several sons also died in this massacre.

Zhu Yihai had just escaped the catastrophe by hiding among the dead.

Zhu Yihai, who survived the catastrophe, was canonized by Chongzhen as the real king of Lu in Jiashen year.

Before Zhu Yihai could enjoy the honor of King Lu, Li Zicheng broke through the city of Beijing, and the entire Jiangbei became the territory of the peasant army.

Zhu Yihai fled south alone.

After Emperor Hongguang succeeded to the throne, he assigned the king of Lu to Taizhou as a vassal.

Qing soldiers crossed the river, and Emperor Hongguang became a prisoner.

King Lu, who had a blood feud with the Qing soldiers, thought that his chance had come, so he rushed to Shaoxing immediately, and was enthroned as emperor with the support of Qian Sule, Zhang Guowei, Zhu Dadian, Zhang Huangyan and others, with the reign name Longwu (he borrowed the reign name of Emperor Longwu up).

Zhu Yihai's evaluation by later generations is not too high, and most people think that Zhu Yihai employs nepotism and has no ability to control his subordinates.As a result, the Lu Jianguo regime did nothing, and it was a complete defeat.

Later, in Fujian, he managed to gain some ZTE momentum, but was emptied by Zheng Cai, so he could only retreat to the Zhoushan Islands, and there was no way to recover.

During the few years he served as the supervisor of the country, he was first controlled by the general Fang Guoan and then Zheng Cai, and he never really became the speaker of the supervisory regime.

When the Zhoushan Islands, the last base of the Lu Jianguo regime, were captured by the Qing soldiers, Zhu Yihai had no choice but to go to Xiamen to seek refuge with Zheng Chenggong.

But Zheng Chenggong was the surname of the king of Tang, and he had always been at odds with the regime of Lu Jianguo.

Although he accepted Zhu Yihai, he did not give Zhu Yihai any power.

From then on, King Lu became an idler.Less than a year after Zheng Chenggong's death, King Lu also died in Jinmen.

Later generations even suspected that King Lu was poisoned by Zheng Jing.

It wasn't until the tomb of King Lu was excavated a few years ago and it was found that his bones showed no signs of poisoning that the suspicion of Zheng Jing being poisoned was cleared.

In any case, on the original historical track, King Lu's fate is like snow.

He wanted to turn the tide, but he was limited by his own ability and the fate of the Qing Dynasty, so he failed in the end.

However, although Zhu Yihai's abilities are limited, he has a tenacious character and is extremely courageous.

At least a hundred times stronger than the escaped emperor Zhu Youlang.

The reason why Zhu Yihai was eager to proclaim himself emperor was precisely because the gentry in Guangdong and Guangxi were preparing to support Zhu Youlang.

He set his name first, and the gentry in Guangdong and Guangxi didn't dare to stand up for Zhu Youlang. They could only wait for his defeat, and then support the runaway little prince who was closest to Emperor Chongzhen's blood.

Zhu Yihai, who ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, did not have any direct descendants, only the tens of thousands of militiamen brought by Zhang Huangyan and Qian Sule, whose power was too weak to defend Zhejiang, let alone counterattack Nanjing.

Fortunately, at this time, Jiangnan revolted because of the hair-shaving order, which caused the main force of the Qing soldiers to be entangled around Nanjing, and they couldn't take care of Zhu Yihai for a while.

Zhu Yihai knew very well that the soldiers under his command were not enough to resist the Qing soldiers.

After proclaiming himself emperor, he began to send envoys to win over powerful factions from all over the world.

Soon, the general Fang Guoan, who held the military power in Zhejiang, arrived in Shaoxing and took over all the battalions and guards.

But in order to take charge of all the military power, this guy who failed to achieve success and failed to achieve success, used the excuse that Qian Sudong and Zhang Huangyan's tens of thousands of militiamen were mobs, wasting food and salaries, and dismissed them all.

Zhu Yihai was deeply worried.

In the palace converted from the government office in Shaoxing, Zhu Yihai summoned Zhang Huangyan, and said with a worried face,
"Xuan Zhu (Zhang Huangyan's words), Fang Guo'an now has all the military power in the court. In my opinion, this man is not a general who is good at fighting. Once the Qing troops attack in large numbers, why should our army take care of it?"

Zhang Huangyan is a man with both civil and military skills.

He also couldn't get used to Fang Guoan, thinking that allowing him to act mischievously would destroy the Longwu regime.

But now King Lu has no more soldiers, only a few hundred soldiers guarding the palace, which is not enough to take down Fang Guoan.

Zhang Huangyan said bitterly,
"Nowadays the whole south of the Yangtze River is full of rebels, and Fangguo Antu has an army of [-], but he dare not send troops to recover the lost land and support those rebels who rose up.

Once the Qing army wiped out the rebels everywhere, can we in Zhejiang still be independent?

Fang Guoan is as afraid of Qing as a tiger.

Once the Qing army comes, I am worried that he will imitate Tian Xiong. "

Hearing Tian Xiong's name, Zhu Yihai's expression changed drastically.

Tian Xiong is the chief soldier under Huang Degong's command.

When Emperor Hongguang escaped from Nanjing to join Huang Degong, he was tied up by Tian Xiong on the road and dedicated to the Qing soldiers directly.

"According to Xuan Zhuo's opinion, how should we take down Fang Guoan?"

Zhu Yihai looked at Zhang Huangyan and asked.

Zhang Huangyan pointed to the light and shadow projected in the sky, and whispered,

"Now that the Jiangnan rebels are everywhere, it is a great opportunity for us. But if we delay any longer, we will completely miss this opportunity.

I think His Majesty should ask Dr. Tongtian for advice and let him show us a clear way. "

Zhu Yihai patted his forehead and said very annoyedly,
"How could I forget the existence of Dr. Tongtian?"

Although Zhu Yihai became the emperor, he didn't have any money, food, gold and silk in his hands.

Fang Guoan controls all the money and food.

In desperation, Zhu Yihai could only reward Li Hao with some calligraphy and paintings of celebrities collected by Zhang Huangyan.

Li Hao received Zhu Yihai's tip and immediately understood what was going on.

When Zhu Yihai applied to be a friend, Li Hao dragged Zhu Yihai into the chat group without saying a word.

Zhu Yihai, who appeared in the chat window, looked very tired. Although he was only 27 years old, his hair was more than half gray, and he looked like an old man in his 50s or [-]s.

Li Hao secretly sighed.

He knew that Zhu Yihai had suffered too much in the past few years.

The palace was looted by Qing soldiers, and all his wives and children were massacred.

Even a person with a hard heart will be physically and mentally exhausted when encountering such a blow.

What's more, Zhu Yihai is still a person who values ​​family affection very much.

When Zhu Yihai saw Li Hao, he bowed his body and saluted immediately.

"Dr. Tongtian, after the Qing chieftain captured Nanjing, he issued an order to shave his hair and make clothes easier. Today, rebels are everywhere in the world. The Qing army slaughtered everywhere, and blood spread across the Ming Dynasty.

I originally wanted to lead the troops out of Zhejiang to counterattack Jinling, but I was restrained by the general and could do nothing.

I also ask Dr. Tongtian to point out the maze and save me the people of Ming Dynasty. "

Li Hao laughed,

"I thought King Tang would come to find me, but it was King Lu."

Zhu Yihai smiled wryly,

"Tang Wang was poisoned by Emperor Hongguang. Now I have succeeded to the throne in Shaoxing Mansion and proclaimed myself Emperor Longwu."

Hearing that Emperor Hongguang even sent someone to poison Tang Wang Zhu Yujian when Yangzhou fell, Li Hao couldn't help cursing,

"That fat man deserves to be tortured."

Li Hao thought for a while, and then said,
"Although it is a bit disrespectful to the unfortunate King Tang, the death of King Tang will make your great cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty easier to succeed. In this way, there will be no dispute between Tang and Lu. The remaining military forces of Nanming will not be able to kill each other. gone."

"But now I don't have any direct descendants. Fang Guoan controls a [-] army, but he doesn't dare to step out of eastern Zhejiang, and sit back and watch the rebels everywhere be wiped out by the Qing soldiers.

The king really doesn't know what to do?Also ask Dr. Tongtian to teach me! "
