Chapter 368 Because He Is Zheng Chenggong

When the Moutai from the palace was delivered, Zhang Zhiji and the others were already preparing for the banquet.

There were not many people, except Zheng Zhilong.

Also invited were Dingguo Duke Xu Yunzhen, Yongkang Marquis Xu Yingyuan, Taining Marquis Chen Yanzuo, Xing'an Bo Xu Zhi'an and other four nobles.

Hearing that someone had come to the palace, everyone stood up in surprise and walked out.

Just as everyone was muttering to themselves why His Majesty sent someone here at this time, the eunuch who came to deliver the decree revealed the purpose.

"Grandpa, Your Majesty heard that you are entertaining guests with wine, and specially sent our family to bring you six bottles of Moutai."

When Zhang Zhiji heard this, he felt very comfortable.

Treat yourself, His Majesty heard about it and gave him wine, and it was Moutai, which was in short supply.

It's too face-saving!

He was happy, and so was Zheng Zhilong.

Look, the Duke of England invited himself, and His Majesty also sent wine specially, so save face.

Everyone thanked him one after another, and Zhang Zhiji stuffed some money into the eunuch who came, and after seeing him off, he returned to the banquet again.

After these twists and turns, the atmosphere has improved a lot.Everyone began to push and change glasses, drinking from the sunshine to the sunset.In the end, Zhang Zhiji took two more bottles of Moutai from his own collection, and drank them all to the point of drunkenness.

At night, several other people went home separately. Since Zheng Zhilong drank Moutai for the first time, he couldn't get over it, and fell unconscious directly.Zhang Zhiji asked the housekeeper to arrange for him to live in the house.

Zheng Zhilong didn't wake up until noon the next day.

When he found himself sleeping in a strange room, he was startled at first, then recalling what happened last night, he couldn't help secretly thinking that he was worthless, and he couldn't help but drink more when he heard that there were thousands of taels of wine.

But this wine is really good, my head doesn't hurt and my stomach doesn't hurt.

He got out of bed, opened the door and went out.

Seeing that there were already two maids waiting outside for an unknown how long, seeing him wake up, the two quickly brought hot water, towels and other things to help him wash up.

According to the housekeeper, Zhang Zhiji went to the Beijing camp early in the morning and was not at the residence.

Zheng Zhilong said goodbye to the housekeeper, left the British government, went outside the palace, and asked to see His Majesty.

"Ready to go back?" Zhu Youjian guessed his purpose.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"It is estimated that Luzon will be unstable for a long time. Next, you should focus as much as possible on that side. Don't be in a hurry about the Strait of Malacca. Wait until next year Luzon's grain will be harvested for two more seasons. It won't be too late for the situation to stabilize completely. What is the name of the one you supported?"

"Conley."

"Yes, Conley. As a person's status changes, his ambition and desire for power will also be affected. We must keep an eye on him, and we must never let him configure his cronies, so that he only has the right to nod! Remember! If there is any change, you can abandon him at any time!"

"Yes! Minister, I will definitely pay more attention."

Zheng Zhilong nodded again.He can be regarded as having fully experienced His Majesty's long-term vision. From the beginning of selling seeds to Spain, then messing up the situation in Luzon to support Conley's rebellion, and finally driving the Spaniards out of Luzon, it can be described as a loop.

Most importantly, and most terrifyingly, he has an invincible armada in his hands.Invincible like a child who is a seven-foot strong man who can just walk.

Thinking about the seven or eight hundred warships that I am proud of, they are probably just moving targets for the First Fleet when bundled together.

Zhu Youjian asked him a few more words, and then picked up the teacup.

Zheng Zhilong took the opportunity, said his resignation, and went straight to the train station outside the city. He was going to Tianjin first, and then returned to Taiwan by boat early tomorrow morning.

"Wang Banban, did you find out, this Zheng Zhilong looks a little less aggressive than the last time we met." After Zheng Zhilong left, Zhu Youjian said to Wang Chengen with a smile while drinking water.

"Long live is becoming more majestic every day! I can't help him not bowing his head and obeying his ears."

"You, you will pick up nice words to coax me. I'm afraid he is not captured by my majesty, but by the power of the First Fleet... If it is not for the First Fleet, if he has a different heart, I really can't do anything overseas he."

"Isn't Zheng Sen in Beijing?"

"Zheng Sen? Zheng Zhilong is a hero. If one day he wants to benefit, he will definitely abandon his son without hesitation."

"Then why does Long live still attach so much importance to Zheng Sen?" Zheng Sen always ranks among the best in all school exams. Wang Chengen thought that he just liked Zheng Sen's intelligence before, but he didn't expect that there are such twists and turns in the middle.

"Why do you value Zheng Sen? Because he is Zheng Chenggong!"

"Zheng Chenggong?"

Wang Chengen was stunned for a moment, wondering what the relationship between Zheng Sen and Zheng Chenggong was.However, Zheng Chenggong is a famous name.

While talking, a little eunuch came in from outside, lowered his head and reported softly:

"Your Majesty, outside the palace, Lu Jiude and Li Zicheng are asking to see you."

"Oh? Let them in."

Zhu Youjian was a little surprised. When he received the news before, he thought it would take two days for them to return to Beijing, but he didn't expect it to be a little earlier.

"Your Majesty, Li Zicheng kowtows to His Majesty."

"Slaves, Lu Jiude kowtow to see Long live."

The two people who came in with the eunuch knelt down and kowtowed loudly when they saw Zhu Youjian.

"No courtesy. How about this trip to Wuchang?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, this trip to Wuchang is still going smoothly, and the King of Chu is very cooperative. As soon as I explained my intentions, he sent someone to show us the list of his land properties, and he led us to check them one by one, and paid the tax in full. Money, silver, and food are not a lot." Li Zicheng said in a full-fledged manner.

"A total of 25 taels of silver and 500 deniers of grain."

After Li Zicheng finished speaking, Lu Jiude made another supplement.

Looking at the two people, one high and one low, one rough and the other feminine, a name appeared inexplicably by Zhu Youjian:

[-]% CP?

Haha.

A smile could not help but appear on Zhu Youjian's face.

Lu Jiude, who was extremely good at observing words and expressions, saw Zhu Youjian's expression, and knew that His Majesty was very satisfied with the two of them this time, so he continued.

"The king of Chu not only paid the tax that His Majesty asked to make up, but also promised that every year in the future, the tax will be sent to the capital at regular intervals and in small amounts."

"Oh?"

Zhu Youjian was a little surprised by Lu Jiude's words. He didn't expect the king of Chu to be so enlightened.Before Li Zicheng and the others went to other places, those princes were either playing tricks or crying poorly. Although they would pay more in the end, they would give some discounts in the end.Didn't expect to come to King Chu, it went so smoothly?

"Did he say anything else?"

"I said a lot of praises. I said that your Majesty is a man of great talent, might shake the world, speak his word, and love the people like a son..."

"Stop, stop, stop talking nonsense. Nothing else?"

"No, but let me bring back a notebook." After finishing speaking, Lu Jiude took out the notebook from his pocket and presented it.

Zhu Youjian glared at him, what the hell are you doing here?
