Chapter 114: Three Words and Three Appointments to Be the Emperor
Not to mention that the boss just took over the 10 million taels of silver from the old dog with Qian, as well as those good things like books, drawings, documents, etc., three months ago, the boss kept saying that it would be of great use to keep Jiannu.
If I go and smash the other person’s money-deaf old dog’s place now, wouldn’t it be a world of untrust?
Besides, Zhongyuan Hall has always been a legitimate person since ancient times. As the first to raise the anti-Qing banner and occupy the world's largest thief leader in Shandong and Henan, the boss under the banner of Ming King enthroned by the Tartars, it seems a bit inappropriate?
Then, before Zhu Jinsong went to smash the crowd, Zeng Cheng, the leader of the civil service system of the Menglianggu Rebellion Group, carried Zhu Jinsong on his back and gathered Zhu Erdan, the second leader of the Menglianggu Rebellion Group, and a group of leaders of all sizes.
Zeng Cheng clicked the dry tobacco pot and looked at everyone and said, "Since the boss's rebellion in Liumiao Village, the rebels of our Meng Lianggu have been from villages and counties at the beginning to now occupying the entire Shandong and Henan provinces. Among them, the master's plan is all due to the master's proper planning. I say that, don't you object?"
Zhu Erdan, the second in command of the Menglianggu Rebellion Group, was a little uncomfortable to express his opinion, but Liu Heming, who had just been promoted to the commander of the First Army, did not have so many concerns: "If you don't rely on the boss, should you rely on us?"
"I don't need to say more. Before following the rebellion of the boss, I just opened my eyes and opened my eyes. Every day, I faced the loess and my back was facing the sky, and I threw eight beads of sweat. I took off the rent that I had to hand over to Liu Juren, and it was difficult for me to support myself."
"There are also Liu Erniu who went to Sichuan with the Sandang family. I don't need to say much about the situation of the Erniu brothers. Our old men in Menglianggu all know that their wife was snatched away by Mr. Mi when she was about to pass the door. Brother Erniu became a widower."
"Uncle Huaiwen is here, I don't need to say much about him."
Liu Huaiwen stumbled the dry tobacco pot and said in a muffled voice: "If it weren't for the boss, my Xiao Cui's revenge would probably never be able to avenge him in this life."
Liu Heming nodded and continued, "Anyway, it's just a word, it's not up to the boss. Among us, we are either exploited by the landlords and men, and they are bullied by the mite masters, not like individuals."
"And not only us, but also what the people of Shandong used to be like? What are they like now? Others don't know, but you, Lao Zeng, should also know in your heart that if you can have a good life today, who will rely on if you don't rely on the boss?"
Liu Huaiwen knelt on the dry tobacco pot in his hand, looked at Zeng Cheng and said, "Old Zeng, what do you want to say? Why are you talking about this well?"
Zeng Cheng thought to myself that I wanted to talk about it carefully, but who knew that Liu Heming, a silly thing, actually started to complain?
That's his mother!
He was so full of words that he had to hold back. Zeng Cheng said angrily when he heard this: "Why are you talking about this well? It's not because of the boss!"
"Look at Zhu Zhongtao from Henan before, then look at Zhu Zhongzhi from Shanxi now, Zhu Zhongji from Jiangsu, and other far-reaching places. How many so-called 17th Emperor of the Ming Dynasty have emerged in the world?"
"Okay, a group of fifth-generation grandsons of Emperor Chongzhen who emerged from somewhere called themselves kings and emperors. The boss who clearly had the imperial seal of Emperor Chongzhen and the jade plate of the Ming royal family in his hands is now just a thief leader?"
"Also, the boss is planning to send troops to suppress Zhu Zhongzhi or Zhu Zhongji, of course, it may be Qian Shi Laogou, but don't forget that the boss has signed a peace agreement with Qian Shi Laogou in order to exchange for the "Yongle Encyclopedia" and those books, drawings, documents and other things," he said.
"So, in the eyes of the world, our boss was certainly the first to fight against the Qing Dynasty, but he also accepted the title of Xiao Ming King by the Tartars."
"You have nothing to say about this?"
After Zeng Cheng said this, the bigwigs of the Menglianggu rebel group were all in deep thought.
That's right. Although the boss said that the peace agreement with the Tartars was used to tear it down, this matter was not good after all. Whether it was the title of King Xiao Ming or the existence of the peace agreement, it would somewhat affect the image of the boss.

This is equivalent to a layer of stinky dog shit wrapped around ten thousand taels of gold. As long as you want to get ten thousand taels of gold, you will inevitably get shit on your hands and you can't even wash it off.
What’s even more fucking is that if you want to clean the stinky shit on the surface first and then get ten thousand taels of gold, the consequence is that the 20,000 gold will turn into ashes.
After a while of silence, Zhu Erdan raised his head and looked at Zeng Cheng and said, "Zeng Futai, do you have any good solutions?"
Zeng Cheng stumbled his head and whispered to the dry tobacco pot when he heard this, and said, "There is no good way, but there is a way that is not a way."
It was related to his elder brother, Zhu Erdan couldn't help but feel anxious: "I said Zeng Futai, if you have any solutions, you can tell me first, let's all of you put together?"
Zeng Cheng glanced at Zhu Erdan, then at the other leaders of all sizes, and said, "The only way now is that there is no way. We will give the boss a comment on his advice and encourage him to ascend the throne and become emperor."
After Zeng Cheng finished speaking, the crowd of leaders of all sizes in the room suddenly became silent. Zhu Erdan asked with a confused look on his face: "You said just now that your elder brother was enthroned by the Tartars, which would affect his elder brother's reputation. If you directly proclaim yourself to the emperor now, wouldn't that be even more impact?"
Liu Huaiwen also frowned and said, "Didn't the boss say that he should accumulate food and be king slowly. Now I will give a comment on persuasion. Isn't it too urgent?"
Zeng Cheng shook his head, knocked the smoked pot in his hand and said, "That's why I said there is no way. Only the boss immediately proclaims emperor and then tells the world, which shows that the reason why he was enfeoffed by the Tartars was entirely for those classics and drawings, which is a helpless move."
"In this way, the attention of the people in the world will be attracted to the great master's proclaim, and they will also be curious about the classics and drawings of the great master's proposition to peace with the Tartars."
"When the library is completed and the classics like the Yongle Encyclopedia are divided into various libraries, people will understand how much the great master paid to preserve these classics."
"It can not only make people in the world understand the masters, but also make people in the world pay attention to these classics and knowledge."
Speaking of this, Zeng Cheng looked at Liu Huaiwen again and said, "Brother Huaiwen just said that the matter of accumulating grain and slowing down the king. If it were put before, Zeng would not refute you. After all, it was decided by the boss himself, so he would definitely not be wrong."
"But, that time, this time again."
"Our great master now lives in Shandong and Henan provinces. His strength is the strongest among the Ming emperors in the world. He is also the orthodox direct line. If he does not ascend the throne and becomes the emperor, it will be truly a matter of God's defeat and will be blamed."
"If you don't say anything else, let's talk about how many people in Shanxi and Jiangsu mistakenly think that the two fake fifth-generation grandsons of Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Zhongzhi and Zhu Zhongji, sincerely surrendered to the orthodox for orthodoxy?"
"Don't forget, before Emperor Chongzhen left, there was a decree saying that the thief would split the body and not hurt the people alone. Compared with the beasts that slaughtered the Tartars after entering the pass, the people in the world still remembered the goodness of Emperor Chongzhen."
"To put it bluntly, the later the boss becomes emperor, the more fake the fifth generation grandsons of Emperor Chongzhen in the world will be. As more and more fake the boss becomes, the real one may become fake."
"so……"
Zhu Erdan, Liu Huaiwen, Liu Heming and others looked at each other and said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's persuade our elder brother to ascend the throne and become emperor. But this is the case, I have to trouble you, Zeng Futai?"
Zeng Cheng whispered the dry tobacco pot, but looked at Ke Zhiming again and said, "It is easy to persuade people to make a comment. The biggest problem now is that they don't know what the people in Shandong and Henan think about this matter?"
Ke Zhiming, who had been silent since entering the house, suddenly spoke: "The people don't have to worry. According to the news reported by the brothers, the people in Shandong and Henan hope that the young master can ascend the throne as soon as possible."
Zeng Cheng nodded again and said, "Then this matter will be much easier to handle, and it will save us from making trouble."
"I will write a letter of persuasion, and we all sign together. In addition, can Chief Ke send a few people to join the peasant associations in Shandong and Henan, and let the people press their fingerprints on the letter of persuasion?"
Ke Zhiming nodded and said, "This is definitely no problem. It's not a day or two for the people of Shandong and Henan to be hoped that the young master will ascend the throne and become emperor, especially Ningyang County and Menglianggu, and Jinan Prefecture. Some people have long clamored to offer the young master umbrella."
With a clear understanding in his heart, and with the cooperation of the entire Menglianggu rebel group, Zeng Cheng quickly joined forces with Zhu Erdan, the second in command of the Menglianggu rebel group, Liu Heming, who was promoted to commander of the First Army, Liu Huaiwen, the logistics manager of the entire Menglianggu rebel group, and others to give Zhu Jinsong a "convincing formula".
In this exhortation, Zeng Cheng and others first accused Jiannu of his atrocities after entering the pass, and then began to praise Zhu Jinsong for his "starting from Weihan" but having virtues such as "daring to be the first in the world" and "being concerned about the people of the world".
Immediately afterwards, the persuasion expressed that thanks to the leader's leading anti-Qing, the rule of the Qing Dynasty was now declining, but so many fakes who claimed to be Zhu were called kings and emperors, causing chaos in the world and the people were living in poverty. You, the orthodox descendant of the Emperor Ming, should take the initiative to stand up and clear the source, so that everyone in the world has hope.
Then, he began to count Zhu Jinsong's series of operations since he began to rebel, which proved that the masters were not only those who were responsible for the heavens, but also those who were born to know the sages of the ages. Not being able to be an emperor was simply incompatible with the laws of nature.
Therefore, I am not talented, please ask the boss, you, to ascend the throne of the Ming Dynasty, and lead our Menglianggu rebel group and the people of the world to kill the Qing Dynasty and restore China.
Zhu Jinsong was a little confused.
No, what kind of mess is this?
We are not planning to lead our troops to smash Zhu Zhongzhi and Zhu Zhongji's situation, why did we get involved in becoming emperor? Although we originally wanted to be this emperor, we didn't plan to be like this now!
Also, if you want to be an emperor, do you have to give in three words and three words?
Then Zhu Jinjin said with a shame: "Although we were the first to rebel against the Qing Dynasty, we just wanted to expel the Tartars and restore China. The little reputation we made was completely loved by everyone. Zhu was ashamed of us, so it would be better for other virtuous people to do this as an emperor. We don't have the blessing of this mud-legged one."
Zeng Cheng and others continued to persuade: "There are so many people in the world who are kings and emperors, but no one has ever taken the lives and death of the people. Boss, you beat the evil gentry and local tyrants, and you have set up the peasant association, and truly resigned to the people. In this world, only you are truly thinking about the people. If you were not emperors, the people in the world would not be willing."
At this time, Zhu Jinsong said: "The common people want us to be emperors? Why don't we know? We see that you are fooling us, and we won't be able to do this in the future."
Then Zeng Cheng and others got a book of the People: "Boss, please see, these books of People are here, and the finger marks are pressed here, which means that the people in the world are looking forward to you, becoming this emperor, and this is not a fool for us."
Zhu Jinsong said again: "Oh, this matter is still not good. After all, we are born in a mud-legged family, and have a shallow talent and weak virtue, which is not enough to rule the world. So you should choose another talent."
Zeng Cheng and others immediately said that this is not enough to be able to step on horseback. Everyone can still listen to you in other matters, but today's boss doesn't count on this matter. You can't ignore the lives and deaths of the people in the world for your reputation. So you have to be a good emperor, and you have to be a good person if you don't. Anyway, we have prepared all the dragon robe and jade seals. Today is a good day, so you can wear a dragon robe!
After three words and three reasses, Zhu Jinsong became the 21st generation emperor of the Ming Dynasty. From this point of view, a fool like Zhu Zhongtao is completely brainless, because even if you don’t recognize the small courts of the Southern Ming Dynasty, you have to at least posthumously confer the four generations of Ci, He, Yi and Bo from the generation of Zhong Dynasty. How could you directly call yourself the 17th generation emperor of the Ming Dynasty?
After Zhu Jinsong became the newly released 21st Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Jinan Prefecture became the temporary capital, and the original Shandong Governor's Office became a stadium.
Then, the Ming Dynasty court, which had just been released, encountered the first problem.
Year number.
