Coincidentally, there is a key city called Yuecheng, southwest of Nanjing City, outside Jubao Gate.

It was originally used to protect Nanjing City, but at this time, tens of thousands of troops had been stationed.

Among them, more than 30,000 people were new troops who had just been trained by Qian Sudian's uncle and nephew.

At this time, the uncle and nephew were also struggling with the arrival of the state and the court.

Their uncle and nephew are loyal and righteous people. They have been influenced by Qian Sule's thoughts since childhood, so there is no doubt about loyalty to the country and the emperor.

But the uncle and nephew are young people. The young people are eager to change, not only to change the status quo, but also to change the future.

If you are just a warrior who doesn’t know a lot of words, then you just obey your orders.

But their uncle and nephew are well-read people.

Reading recognizes etiquette and morality, but reading will also make people know the etiquette of many things that are not mentioned in books.

It's like an ant on the ground. While it is getting stronger and stronger, it desires to climb higher and see things that it can't see before. Until one day, it finds that it may fly into the sky and can only see more.

If the two of them did not encounter this chaotic world, they might be able to be content with themselves, be promoted to a Jinshi, become a county magistrate or higher.

But now, they are all thousands of households, and thousands of households who have experienced blood and fire fighting.

When a thoughtful and cultural person becomes a military general, he is very destructive and, on the contrary, he is also very constructive.

"Uncle Jiu, what did Jinghai Hou think? He thought he was Cao Cao, but now it seems that he was wrong."

Qian Sudian was also confused, "I can't understand it either. In theory, it would be easy for him to block the governor's country in Pinggang Mountain. Any reason can stop the court from moving north, so that he can take charge of the overall situation in Yingtian Prefecture. And you and I know in your heart that whether it is selfish or righteous, it is better to take charge of the overall situation in Yingtian Prefecture, which is more in line with the current situation. His Highness's thoughts are too difficult to figure out. His Highness's ruler has been wise and fair for a year, but he is a woman after all, who does not understand military affairs and may not be able to recover the Northern Expedition... Alas, his thoughts are too difficult to figure out."

"Yes, but that's fine. If he really had a strange intention, it would be difficult for you and I to convince the husband and father. In the end, wouldn't this cause trouble in the family?"

Qian Sudian glared at his nephew, "It is a way to cause disaster. Since you and I have the intention to change the world, we should be obsessed with our own opinions. How can we change our orders every day? Besides, in the court, those who are in high positions are mediocre and do not want to counterattack the Northern Expedition. If this continues, the Qing army will not be far away from moving south."

Qian Qiaogong said bitterly: "You think I don't want to do it, but now the gentleman and others are already waiting for the battle to welcome the King of Lu to ascend to the throne. I don't know if they have communicated privately. If my father also agrees with this matter, then this matter is already a foregone conclusion. Just how do you and me change it? Besides, if the Hou of Jinghai agrees, how can you and I persuade you? You can't force yourself to drink water on the bull's head, right?"

Qian Sudian frowned and said, "This matter is indeed difficult to resolve. Your Highness is a woman. It is difficult to convince the public to persuade him to ascend the throne. Originally, if the Marquis of Jinghai could stay in Pinggang Mountain, as long as there were not many people, even if these people in the city wanted to persuade him to advance, it would be difficult to achieve... Alas, it was all Wu Zheng."

Qian Qiaogong said: "But at the moment, Xia Wanchun and others are still waiting for you and me to reply. He can say that he is the main believer and he will not join forces. But if he really wants to cause internal conflicts about this matter, he would rather quit his post and go back to Songjiang Prefecture to fish."

"Yes, the strong enemy is right now, this matter is really difficult. Now the city is in a row, with Duke Xingguo Xia Wanchun and you and me. Duke Xingguo is the strongest, followed by you and me, and Xia Wanchun's tribe is the weakest. If the Marquis of Jinghai were there, the matter could be decided in one sentence, but he went to Pinggang Mountain. His generals were very shirkish about the matter. He asked no questions and said that it was all based on the Marquis of Jinghai. If this continues, it is inevitable that the dispute between the State Superintendent and the King of Lu will be inevitable."

Qian Qiaogong suddenly said, "If King Lu is established, the result will be that if he is in Shaoxing, in my opinion, as long as Wu Zheng does not object, he will still support His Highness, the rank of the Superintendent."

Qian Sudian said: "But Your Highness, the king of Jianguo, is a woman. How can Chen Zilong and his group of great scholars convince him?"

Qian Qiaogong said, "Yes, it would be great if Wu Zheng had arrived earlier than His Highness and others. But he was still stranded in Hangzhou... Alas, if you really want to make trouble, Xia Wanchun would definitely not abandon Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen is his mentor and is close friend of his deceased father. This relationship must not let him stay out of the matter. What's even more difficult is that his father's view on this matter is still unclear."

Qian Sudian thought for a while and said, "It's urgent to keep the status quo now, so that at least a few words won't be out of control."

Qian Qiaogong frowned and said, "Uncle means to press Mr. Chen and others and not let them persuade them to enter?"

Qian Sudian nodded and said, "This is the best way. Your Highness has been supervised for a day. As long as it remains unchanged, it will not happen if it happens."

"But you also know Mr. Chen's temper. It is definitely not just by persuasion. You and I cannot forcefully stop it. This will cause a confrontation between our troops and Xia Wanchun's troops. Besides, even if Mr. Chen and others are taken care of, His Highness the Superintendent of the State of the State, they cannot let them not show up, right? After all, he was an important minister of the Ming Dynasty. When King Lu was supervising the State, he was appointed as the Minister of War and controlled the military grain of seven provinces. When King Tang ascended the throne, he was also appointed as the Left Assistant Minister of War and the Left Assistant Censor of the Ministry of War. Although he did not accept it, his status was special after all."

Qian Sudian gritted his teeth and said, "The two evils are the least. Take care of them first. After His Highness the Superintendent enters the city, then listen to your father's meaning."

"Then... OK!" Speaking of this, Qian Qiaogong suddenly said, "But what if the Xingguo Gongshu joins in?"

Qian Sudian hesitated for a moment and said, "Duke Xingguo has not revealed his thoughts yet. It seems that he has chosen to sit and watch. It is normal. He is closer to Jinghai Hou. His Highness was welcomed by Jinghai Hou. Duke Xingguo will naturally listen to Jinghai Hou's meaning before making a decision. With such a check and balance between the two ministers, I believe that Duke Xingguo will not suddenly join in."

"Then I... discuss with Xia Wanchun first?"

"Okay. Just tell him that we will not help each other and will only follow His Highness's orders."

....

In the afternoon of that day, in front of Hongwu Gate.

Chen Zilong, Xu Fuyuan, Song Zhengyu and others gathered here.

They climbed onto the temporary high platform and gave speeches in public.

We called on students, scholars, scholars, and high-ranking officials and nobles of the former dynasty to jointly propose to support the new emperor and form a cabinet to participate in major events.

More and more people gathered together to watch the fun. From the beginning, they watched the fun, and were gradually attracted by Chen Zilong's passionate words.

For a time, the city was filled with people, and there were as many as 100,000 people watching.

The situation gradually became uncontrollable.

More and more people flock to Hongwu Gate.
