"Under the whole world, is it the land of the king, the shore of the land, is it the subject of the king, where can you go?"

Cao Zhengchun snorted softly, and said in a disdainful tone: "This governor may as well tell you the truth, His Majesty asked you to go to overseas countries to do business, but he wanted you to take the lead. Soon, His Majesty will let the navy of the Ming Empire resume Sailing to the West."

"At that time, anyone who does not submit to our Ming Empire will lose their country and become the territory of our Ming Empire."

"You said, the world is so big, will there be a place for you when the time comes?"

A sense of pride filled the eunuch's face.

"Thank you Governor Cao for clarifying the confusion, the grassroots understand."

Wansanqian bowed his hands and saluted.

It wasn't until this moment that he finally understood why Cao Zhengchun was so fearsome and why he was so arrogant and domineering. What he relied on was not Dongchang.

But behind him stood the Ming Emperor Zhu Qizhen, and behind him was the entire Ming Empire.

"Wan Sanqian, don't you go to the household department to get 100 million taels of silver?"

Seeing Wan Sanqian leave, Cao Zhengchun suddenly asked.

This one million taels of silver is the capital His Majesty gave him to do business. After one year, he will give His Majesty tens of millions of taels of silver.

Wan Sanqian didn't turn his head back, and a burst of laughter sounded: "Don't worry, Governor Cao, since the grassroots have agreed to His Majesty, they will never break their promises. As for the mere 100 million silver, even if someone Wan handed it over to me, I will send it to you in the Ming Empire." All the family property, Wan Mou will not pay attention to it."

The voice was naturally full of pride.

This is the demeanor of the world's richest man!

However, Wan Sanqian really didn't intend to abscond. Cao Zhengchun was right. In the whole world, could it be the land of the king, the shore of the land, and the ministers of the king? Now that the Ming Empire is rich and powerful, even if he fled to the ends of the earth, where would he be? His place?

not to mention……

escape!

This is not his style at all!

Moreover, he faintly felt that although this was a risk, the paddock was not an opportunity for him, an opportunity that was enough to make the most powerful man in the world fancy it!

Property without power escort is like a castle in the air or duckweed in the water.

Not only Cao Zhengchun had already realized this point.

Now, after being arrested by the court, Wan Sanqian is also deeply aware of this.

On the second day, after receiving an imperial decree from Jin Yiwei, Wan Sanqian went to the Governor's Mansion of Fujian Province, found Zheng Chenggong, the Governor of the Navy, ordered twelve warships, and went to Nanyang to find money for the emperor. .

He wants to prove his talent to the emperor!

At the same time, in Qianqing Palace, Zhu Qizhen received a secret report.

Yu Qian led an army to Liaodong to investigate the case of horse bandits attacking Yuhuatian. After 20 days, the result was finally reached.

"My humble minister, Yu Qian, let your Majesty speak:"

"It has been found out that the person who attacked Yuhuatian was the Aixinjueluo clan of the Jurchen clan in Jianzhou. It was the young patriarch of the Aixinjueluo clan. This person's name is Nurhachi, and he is the son-in-law of Li Chengliang, the governor of Liaodong. .”

"This case involves a lot!"

"Involving nearly a thousand officials, large and small, and 120 and eight clans, big and small, in Liaodong. If these rebels are to be wiped out, thunderous means must be used."

"Otherwise, there will be a big turmoil in Liaodong."

"The Shenji Battalion and the Xishan cavalry led by Weichen have a total of 2 horses. It is more than enough to hunt down the Jurchen cavalry, but to deal with the turmoil in Liaodong, I am afraid there will be insufficient manpower."

"That's right, please Your Majesty's genuine army of [-] will come to Liaodong to wipe out the rebels and stabilize Liaodong."

Looking at Yu Qian's secret performance, Zhu Qizhen frowned slightly.

Liaodong has a vast territory, and there are nearly 80 Jurchens among them. The two largest tribes are the rebellious Aixinjueluo clan.

Does Zhu Qizhen know that when the Ming Dynasty was destroyed, if it weren't for this group of Jurchens making troubles in Liaodong, how could that reckless Li Zicheng have a chance to attack the imperial capital of the Ming Dynasty?

Therefore, this Jurchen tribe is naturally composed of men, women and children, and none of them can stay!

There is another one, Yeherala's!

At present, the attitude of this tribe is unknown.

However, although the Yeherala family has always been not close to Daming and did not recognize the comrades of the Ming Empire, they have also always been at odds with the Aixinjueluo family.

Between the two tribes, there is hostility, often bloody wars.

As for Zhu Qizhen's attitude...

Non-my family, its heart must be different!

Of course, take this opportunity to destroy them together!

What's more, Zhu Qizhen also intends to spare none of the big and small officials and aristocratic families involved in this matter!

These people, eating my big Ming's food, dare to secretly raise thieves... Such an act of stealing inside and out is tantamount to a traitor, and is tantamount to a white-eyed wolf.

All should be killed!

What Yu Qian said is right, if all these people are to be dealt with, it will definitely cause great shocks in Liaodong, and they must be cut quickly and killed with thunder!

"Come here, go and declare the cabinet ministers to enter the palace, I have important matters to discuss."

Zhu Qizhen was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Go, call Yuhuatian and Cao Zhengchun together."

"Yes, according to the order."

Wei Zhongxian took the order to go, hurriedly arranged people, and hurriedly went to announce the cabinet ministers and the governor of the East and West Factory.

After half an hour.

The cabinet ministers met Cao Zhengchun and Yuhuatian outside the Meridian Gate.

"Governor Cao, tell me, what is your Majesty summoning us?" asked Yan Song, Chief Assistant of the Cabinet.

"It should be the horse bandits who attacked the West Factory. We have already found out. Your Majesty should come to us to discuss how to deal with it." Cao Zhengchun cupped his hands to the sky.

"Hmph, the governor wants these thieves to be shredded into pieces!" On Yu Huatian's beautiful face, a stern look appeared.

"Oh, I hope His Majesty will not kill innocent people randomly." Yan Song sighed.

"What is innocent and not innocent? All these people should be damned. By the way, it should be anyone who has anything to do with the horse bandit, even if there is only a trace of connection, they should all be damned. They are absolutely innocent!" Xu Jie, the cabinet assistant, cursed severely thief.

The ministers came to Qianqing Palace to pay respects to the emperor.

Zhu Qizhen went straight to the point and said: "This is a secret report sent by someone sent by Yu Qian. The people who attacked Xichang have found out that it was the Jurchen tribe in Jianzhou. In addition, there are nearly a thousand officials involved in the case, and there are 120 clans. Home."

"My dear friends, what do you think, how should we deal with this matter?"

Zhu Qizhen took a sip of tea and asked casually, as if he didn't take this matter to heart.

"Your Majesty, please give me [-] soldiers and horses. If I, Yuhuatian, don't take revenge, I won't be able to swallow this bad breath, and I won't die with peace in my eyes."

Yuhuatian immediately knelt on the ground to ask for a job.

Chapter 72 Yan Song: My ass is the life of the entire Jurchen tribe

"Well, you Yuhuatian, you usually look aloof, but I didn't expect you to be greedy for military exploits."

Hearing Yuhuatian's invitation, Cao Zhengchun's heart skipped a beat. The last time Wara soldiers invaded Datong Mansion, he was favored by the emperor, and he led the troops to the grassland and made extraordinary achievements.

Cao Zhengchun has always been brooding.

Everyone is an eunuch, why can he make great achievements on the battlefield and leave his name in history, but I, Cao Zhengchun, can't. Moreover, Cao Zhengchun is very confident, if His Majesty can let him lead the army.

He is absolutely no worse than Yuhuatian!

"Your Majesty Qizuo, Yu Huatian is loyal to the country, and his courage is commendable."

Cao Zhengchun immediately bowed his hands, changed the subject, and said, "However, His Majesty would really have the heart to let such a loyal and commendable person go to the battlefield with injuries. If something happens, it will be an immeasurable loss to our Ming Empire."

"Your Majesty, this time I will lead the troops to fight against the Liaodong to wipe out the rebels, so I should leave it to the servants."

Cao Zhengchun was in a strange mood, and he emphasized that Yuhuatian's injury had not yet healed, and said: "If I can't complete the important task that Your Majesty entrusted to me, I am willing to come and see you."

This is equivalent to issuing a military order!

How could Zhu Qizhen not know the little Jiujiu in Cao Zhengchun's heart, he wanted to make meritorious deeds this time, and prepare for the command of the naval fleet in the future and sail south to the west.

In fact, Zhu Qizhen also wanted Cao Zhengchun to lead the army.

After all, Zhu Qizhen's plan this time is to exterminate all the Jurchen clan in Liaodong, leaving no one behind.

The one who can accomplish this must be a ruthless person.

There is no doubt that Cao Zhengchun is a good candidate.

However, war is no child's play.

Zhu Qizhen still has a big question mark over Cao Zhengchun's ability to lead the army to fight.

"My dear friends, what do you think?"

Zhu Qizhen turned his gaze to several cabinet ministers, and asked, "How should this matter be handled?"

As soon as Zhu Qizhen finished speaking, Yan Song stood up.

"Your Majesty Qizuo, I believe that the [-] Jianzhou Jurchen horse bandits will naturally be wiped out, and even all the Jurchens will be wiped out. The veterans support it."

"But another tribe of the Jurchen tribe, the Yeherala tribe, has nothing to do with this matter. I wonder if His Majesty can let them go."

"Also, there are 120 clans and [-] officials involved in this matter. I wonder if His Majesty can forgive them once."

"If they are all killed, this matter will involve too much. I am afraid that the entire Liaodong will cause an unprecedented riot."

Yan Song's words can be regarded as abandoning the army to protect the handsome.

It is to completely wipe out the Aixinjueluo tribe, men, women and children, nearly 40 people, and use the lives of the Liaodong family who are too deeply involved in the case to save the remaining people.

"Your Majesty! I disagree with Elder Yan Ge's suggestion!"

Xu Jie, the second assistant to the cabinet, stood up immediately, cupped his hands and said: "Since it is related to this matter, no matter whether it is too deeply involved, it has proved one thing."

"whats the matter?"

Yan Song turned his head to look at Xu Jie, frowning slightly.

"These people are rebellious!"

Xu Jie said loudly: "People like this can't just let them go just because their power is still small. If they become powerful, wouldn't they want to overthrow my Ming Dynasty blatantly?"

"I suggest that all of you be killed!"

"Old Xu Ge, according to what you said, do you know how many people will die if this imperial decree goes on?"

Yan Song was so angry that he coughed a few times.

"There are as many as 40 Jurchens in the Aixinjueluo tribe of Jianzhou, and there are as many as 50 people involved in the case, including officials and aristocratic families!"

Yan Song knelt on the ground, crying: "Your Majesty, this imperial decree of yours determines the life and death of 50 people. I beg Your Majesty to think twice."

"Come here, give Elder Yan Ge a seat."

Zhu Qizhen did not agree to Yan Song's request, but asked Wei Zhongxian to bring him a grand master's chair. After all, this 80-year-old man was a little unsteady on his feet.

"The old minister thanked His Majesty."

Yan Song sat down tremblingly.

"My dear friends, do you have any other opinions?"

Zhu Qizhen sat on the dragon chair and looked around at the others.

For a while, the ministers fell silent.

Originally, when they came, most of them agreed with the proposal of Xu Jie, the cabinet assistant, and killed all these people.

Even if Liaodong was killed like a river of blood and tears, the world would change color.

However, after Yan Song put forward his opinion at this time, His Majesty gave him a seat, which made him mistakenly think that the emperor might agree with Yan Song's opinion.

Heavenly power is unpredictable.

The heart of the emperor cannot be fathomed.

Therefore, they became a little confused. If the emperor didn't express his will clearly, they decided not to speak, and as long as the emperor made a statement, he and they agreed.

Otherwise, if you rashly express your opinion, if it is at odds with the emperor's meaning, wouldn't it be just asking for trouble?

But at this moment, a person stood up.
