After receiving this news, Shang Kexi was very happy and thought that he had finally found an opportunity. First, he immediately scolded Shang Yi in the name of the Yong'an court, and put it on the hat of more than a dozen serious crimes. At the same time, he once again sent a letter to the Yongli and Shaowu courts, demanding to form a alliance to fight against Shang Yi. At this time, the voices of defending Shang Yi in the other two courts were much smaller, and those who supported Shang Yi in the past remained silent at this time. Therefore, Shang Kexi jumped up and down, pulled left and right, and seemed very active.

But at this time, Shang Yi sent official documents to the three Southern Ming courts, saying that he did not have the will to be independent. The reason why he called himself King Jingbei was still because of the need to resist the Qing Dynasty. The focus was on the word "Jingbei". In order to express his unfair intentions, he was willing to invite them to Nanjing to proclaim himself emperor. He was also willing to establish the court in Nanjing and assist him in unifying the world.

Of course, in the official documents to the Yong'an court, Shang Kexi was scolded, and all the things that Shang Kexi had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and attacked the Ming Dynasty. He pointed out bluntly that Shang Kexi was the detailed of the Qing court, who sowed the discord in the south, caused trouble, and let the Southern Ming courts kill each other. At the same time, he also told other officials of the Yong'an court not to listen to Shang Kexi's praise, and would come to deal with Shang Kexi sooner or later, etc.

After Shang Yi announced his reign, he had a preparatory response to the Southern Ming court. This was the backup plan for the reign of the Southern Ming court. Of course, the difference between being called king and being called emperor is this. If he was called emperor, there would be no room for maneuver. Of course, Shang Yi was not only interested in the Southern Ming court returning to Nanjing, but several emperors were certainly willing, but none of the three emperors in the Southern Ming court could be the masters of their own power. In fact, the real power was controlled by their respective ministers, and the ministers in power would never bring the emperor back to Nanjing.

Among the various courts, the ministers who had previously supported Shang Yi immediately became active and wrote letters to defend Shang Yi's title of king, believing that Shang Yi's contribution was enough to be crowned king. They also suggested that the court where they were located officially granted Shang Yi the king and then moved to Nanjing, which was truly the throne of the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, most of these people do not really support Shang Yi, but based on the principle that the enemy opposes. After all, it is still for the sake of power. If you really fight for power, you will definitely not send the emperor to Nanjing. Isn’t that just a wedding dress for Shang Yi?

However, things are not absolute, and there are indeed people who truly support Shang Yi. Zheng Chenggong in the Shaowu court was of course one, and in the Yong'an court, there was actually one person who believed that Shang Yi should be officially granted the King of Jingbei and then moved to Nanjing. This person was Zhang Huangyan.

Zhang Huangyan was arrested with Zhu Yihai. Shang Kexi released Zhu Yihai and established himself as the emperor. Zhang Huangyan and several other ministers under Zhu Yihai were released, Zhu Mingzhen, Zhu Dadian, Zhang Guowei, Xiong Rulin and others were also released, and they all held important positions in the Yong'an court. Zhang Huangyan served as the Minister of War. However, the real power in the Yong'an court was in the hands of Shang Kexi, and these people were just decorations.

In another time and space, Zhang Huangyan was a person with relatively insightful and political vision in the Southern Ming Dynasty, and was very considerate. Shang Kexi had a very close relationship with the Qing court. Anyway, he came to Fengming to establish Zhu Yihai, which was still forced by the situation and was not sincere, so this person was not reliable. However, for the time being, he could only give him a snake and wait for change.

Shang Yi's next article asked Zhu Yihai to go to Nanjing to succeed the throne. For Zhang Huangyan, regardless of whether Shang Yi had the ambition to be independent or not, he was undoubtedly very firm in his anti-Qing stance. Moreover, Shang Yi is also the only person in the south who is truly capable of defeating the Qing court, so he is more reliable than Shang Kexi in any aspect. In addition, this time Shang Yi was just king and did not become emperor, which also shows that Shang Yi did not have to establish a new dynasty. Maybe he was encouraged by some people. If he arrived in Nanjing, he could explain the righteousness to Shang Yi, and he might not be able to persuade him to change his mind and support the Ming Dynasty's rejuvenation.

So Zhang Huangyan also actively persuaded the others to take this opportunity to take Zhu Yihai out of Guangdong and return to Nanjing. Zhang Mingzhen, Zhu Dadian, Zhang Guowei, Xiong Rulin and others did not think as much as Zhang Huangyan, but in Guangdong there was Shang Kexi, everyone could see that it was. Therefore, it was better to go to Nanjing to try your luck, and the worst thing was like in Guangzhou. And I heard that Wu Yan, Shi Kefa, and Huang Zongxi were all in Nanjing, and it seemed that they were doing well. So they all agreed with Zhang Huangyan's opinion.

Everyone also started to act immediately. While sending people to contact Shang Yi, he asked him to send troops to pick him up, and while co-branding the letter, asking Zhu Yihai to move to Nanjing.

Of course, Shang Kexi could not let Zhu Yihai leave Guangdong, so he tried his best to stop it, and the two sides quarreled in the court. Although Shang Kexi held the real power of the Yong'an court, in terms of his ability to talk, of course, he could not catch up with these people. As a result, he was dumbfounded and could not refute a word.

Originally, Shang Yi scolded Shang Kexi and criticized him in the official document, and Yijing made Shang Kexi very angry. Now, these people were speechless and couldn't help but feel embarrassed and angry. He simply unreasonable. At the order, he arrested Zhang Huangyan and others and were imprisoned. Although he was arrested in front of Zhu Yihai, Zhu Yihai did not even dare to let go of a single fart. However, Shang Kexi finally had some taboos about the reputation of these people, and he just put them in jail and did not dare to harm them.

But Shang Yi was waiting for this opportunity, because Shang Yi knew very well that this was a controversy in the south, which was Shang Kexi's trouble. Therefore, to settle the south, Shang Kexi must first settle Shang Kexi first. Now Shang Kexi has seized ministers such as Zhang Huangyan, and provided Shang Yi with a great excuse. He immediately used Shang Kexi to imprison the ministers and sent troops to attack Guangdong. He proposed the righteous words and sternly and righteousness, and to eliminate evil and clear the king's side.

Luo Yuanbin, who was stationed in Jiangxi, immediately sent a division of troops to Heping County, Huizhou Prefecture, Guangdong Province. At the same time, Yang Wucheng, who was stationed in Hunan, also sent a brigade to Lechang County, Shaozhou Prefecture, and the two groups of people were also in a joint attack on Guangdong.
