Dorgon suffered a setback in Annan, mainly because the cavalry faced the elephant army and suffered a small loss. With the naval battle, Yunnan stopped. Now it can be said that there is no merit or progress.

Cao Huachun didn't quite understand King Ping's thoughts, so he shook his head and said, "The emperor only pays attention to maritime affairs recently, and didn't mention anything else."

King Ping blinked his small eyes, and said with a smile: "Then I will ask the emperor later."

Cao Huachun followed, and said, "My lord, the emperor said that the kings and envoys from all over the world are coming soon, and I want you to make preparations, and you will receive them in person."

King Ping used to be Zongzheng of the clan's mansion, but this one is easy to grasp, and his status is also suitable, but his expression seemed to be moved: "Eunuch, this time there is such a big commotion, is the emperor going to do something?"

The leaders and brains of the surrounding countries, regions, and tribes will basically come, even if they don't come, there will be envoys. This is something that the Ming Dynasty has not seen in the past [-] years!

Cao Huachun smiled slightly, and said: "It's mainly for the people of the Western Yi." What Cao Huachun was talking about was the joint sea-land martial arts performance.

In fact, besides the foreign devils, Zhu Xu also wanted to frighten some of the surrounding feudal states, whether it was Japan, Burma, Annan, he would demonstrate, stand up, and frighten!

King Ping didn't ask anything, he pursed his lips, and said with a smile: "Show your reputation overseas, Busch Ender, it's none other than my Ming Dynasty!"

Cao Huachun bowed and walked along, shaking his head secretly in his heart, and said to himself that our emperor never trades at a loss, it is okay to show off, but absolutely not to give alms!

The two soon came to Zhu Xu's "bedroom", Cao Huachun walked in, came out again soon, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, Your Majesty has not slept all night, just fell asleep."

Upon hearing this, King Ping said quickly: "Then I will come back after the emperor wakes up."

Cao Huachun nodded and arranged a room for King Ping.

After a day, the news of the navy's victory had spread, and Zou Weilian and the newly appointed governor of Fujian, Ma Jian, were in different moods.

Zou Weilian heaved a sigh of relief, his fearful heart was finally let go.

Ma Yan is a thin middle-aged man with calm eyes and a somewhat serious expression.He was rather excited. He heard a lot of rumors, and he regretted not being able to participate.

After Zou Weilian felt relieved, he smiled more, and said, "Now that the maritime affairs are calm, we can relax and concentrate on our work."

Sitting there, Ma Yan said solemnly: "Master Zou, I have already arranged the post house and sent heavy troops to guard it, just in case!"

Zou Weilian had already received the imperial decree from Zhu Xu, and knew that there were too many important people coming, so he hummed and said, "Fuzhou Mansion has been relatively peaceful recently, but we can't take it lightly. My Ming Dynasty is a great dynasty, so I can't be underestimated by Fanbang. , you have to pay more attention.”

Ma Yan nodded and said: "Then, will your lord find a chance to plead guilty to the emperor?"

Zou Weilian looked slightly startled, and immediately picked up the teacup beside him silently.

He had already learned that Governor Ma was too stubborn. In his opinion, it was Zou Weilian's fault that Fujian was demoted collectively by the emperor. It would be even more wrong not to plead guilty.

After the big victory, the spring breeze was triumphant, Zou Weilian was also worried that Zhu Xu would be dealt with later, he pondered for a while, and said: "Later, I will go to Meizhou Island to see the emperor to plead guilty, Mr. Ma can go together."

"Okay." Ma Yan said concisely, with no expression on his face.He was promoted, transferred, and he hadn't thanked him yet, so it happened to be an opportunity.

There was no alarm clock at this time, but fortunately there was a humanoid one, and after more than two hours, Cao Huachun woke Zhu Xu up.

While washing his face, Zhu Xu said, "Xiong Wencan, is Tang Wang back?"

Cao Huachun said: "Not yet, I expect to be back after noon. King Ping has arrived, Jurchen Daishan, Dorgon and others have also arrived, waiting for the emperor to summon them."

Zhu Xu wiped his face, let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Prepare the chairs, let them come to see me."

"Yes." Cao Huachun responded.

Not long after, Cao Bianjiao took the imperial guards and "escorted" King Ping, Dorgon and others to Zhu Xu's study.

King Ping came in first, followed by Daishan, Dorgon, Duoduo, Shuotuo, Man Dahai and others, all dressed in official uniforms, quite majestic.

King Ping raised his hand, Daishan, Dorgon and the others knelt on one knee and said: "Your Majesty, I will see you!"

Zhu Xu sat on the chair inside the desk, looked at everyone and smiled, "Excuse me, come here, and give me a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." A group of people got up, and the inner eunuch came in with chairs, and everyone sat down one by one.

Cao Bianjiao was standing on the right side of Zhu Xu's table, holding a knife at his waist, in a very alert state.

King Ping smiled relaxedly and turned sideways, as if he had something to say to Zhu Xu.

Daishan looked indifferent, sitting first on the right, with his head down, like an old monk sitting still.Dorgon's face was calm, his eyes were cold, and he didn't see any other emotions.Duoduo stood upright, with his head held high, with a haughty face and sharp eyes, while Shuotuo cautiously retracted his neck, as if trying to hide himself.Man Dahai, on the other hand, has a calm demeanor, neither humble nor overbearing.

Zhu Xu looked around, his eyes fell on King Ping, and he said with a smile: "Uncle Huang, has this journey been hard?"

King Ping turned to Zhu Xu, and said with a smile: "It's not hard, it's not hard. The scenery is picturesque, but it's very relaxing and comfortable." The team is not only slow, sometimes it stays in a certain place for several days.

Zhu Xu smiled, turned to Dai Shan and said, "I heard that you have suffered from Xiang Jun?"

Dai Shan bowed slightly, and said without moving his face: "Yes, because he was unprepared, he was defeated. Please forgive me."

Zhu Xu sized up these survivors of the Kingdom of Jin. It was not difficult to guess what they were thinking. He picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and said with a smile, "Victory and defeat are common matters in military affairs, so don't worry about it. Well, the emperor's uncle happened to be there too. There are some things that I will open up to say.”

King Ping listened carefully, but Dorgon's eyes flickered slightly, and he shrank his fingers sharply.

Zhu Xu paused for a moment, then said: "Annan has not been a minister for a long time, and has repeatedly rebelled and invaded. I have endured it until I can't bear it. This time I am going south, Annan is the key point to solve!"

Everyone now knows that the emperor defeated two powerful enemies at sea. He has a powerful navy that can run amok on the sea. Then, it will be Annan's turn next.

Zhu Xu looked at Daishan, Dorgon and the others, and said: "I plan to divide Annan into two, the north will be the fiefdom of King Ping, and the south will be divided into seven prefectures. Among them, you Jurchens can get One house."

Daishan, Dorgon and the others all looked slightly startled, but they suppressed it and did not attack.

However, Duoduo, Shuotuo and others were still excited, looking at Zhu Xu with burning eyes.

Zhu Xu smiled and said: "I also know that the population in Annan is small, and you can be moved away by the north. I also know that you can't do it with your strength. I will order Oboi to bring an artillery battalion to assist you. The elephant army is actually vulnerable to artillery, so there is no need to worry too much."

If it is cavalry, with high mobility, the role of artillery will be minimized, but if it is a slow elephant army, it will only be slaughtered!

Daishan, Dorgon and the others looked at each other, stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." In their words, some were excited, some were indifferent, and some were cold.

They were all smart people, and they could hear Zhu Xu's words very clearly.This is to ask them to remove the people in the north and make room for the people of the Ming Dynasty.The south is divided into eight, I'm afraid that the Jurchens will get the worst!

Daishan and Dorgon knew Jurchen's current situation best. They knelt on one knee, their eyes flickering.

Most of the Jurchens are now under the banner of Daishan Dorgon, and Liaodong is no longer "recognized" by them, but even in the south of Ming Dynasty, the Jurchens are divided.

That is the "slave" represented by Aobai and others and the "master" represented by Daishan and Dorgon.

This is also what Zhu Xu did deliberately, he smiled and waved his hands and said: "No courtesy, I will not treat heroes badly, you may not know that South Annan is a rich place, you will know when you go, are there any other difficulties? ?”

Dai Shan glanced at Dorgon, and then said: "I'm not waiting."

Zhu Xu smiled in satisfaction, and said: "Well, well done, I won't be stingy with rewards, this martial arts performance, let's all watch it together."

"I will obey the order." Daishan, Dorgon and others said in unison.

"You guys go, have a good rest, and you can also take a look around, King Ping stays here." Zhu Xu said.
