    *** The city of Nanjing is divided into a four-fold ring structure including the imperial city, palace city, capital city, and outer city.  ¡÷¡é The outer city wall meanders between mountains and rivers, with a circumference of more than 120 miles, enclosing Yuhuatai, Zhongshan, Mufu Mountain, Lion Rock, Xuanwu Lake, Mochou Lake, etc., with mountains and rivers alternating with beautiful bells and spirits.  In the Ming Dynasty, the exterior was still lined with criss-crossing roads, giving it a rural and pastoral scene.  But now, all 18 outer city gates have been paved with asphalt roads.  Close to the inner side of the capital, it has been re-planned, with spacious and straight asphalt roads crisscrossing it. On both sides of the road, there are rows of residential houses and shops, which are no different from those in the city.  And because most of the streets and buildings are brand new, they look more gorgeous than those in the capital.  The wealthy families in Beijing felt that the capital was too crowded and had no room for expansion, so they often chose to build villas outside. The luxurious or elegant buildings were hidden among the flowers and trees, making them quiet and pleasant.  The Qinhuai River enters the city from the Shangfang Gate on the south side of the outer corridor. Along both sides of the river are Huating and deep courtyards, which are well-proportioned.  In a deep courtyard by the river, wind and rain enveloped the pavilions.  In the secluded room in the west chamber, the doors and windows are closed tightly, making it difficult for daylight to enter. A lamp in the room is like a bean, swaying slightly.  "What? The entire East China Sea Fleet is heading south to Fujian? What should we do? Mr. Niu, tell me, has Qin Mu already found something?" In the shadow of the lamp, Zheng Zhilong stood up with a look of panic.  He is already forty-seven years old this year, but he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. At the age of more than forty years old, he is very powerful in his movements.  "Don't worry, my benefactor. The East China Sea Fleet went south to Fujian just to put pressure on Yuan Zongdi and prevent him from resisting." The man called Mr. Niu was fifty-five years old, with slender cheeks and a  Goatee, isn't it the prime minister of Dashun Dynasty, Niu Jinxing?  He was originally from Baofeng.  Later moved to the county seat.  He was a scholar in his twenties and passed the imperial examination in the seventh year of Tianqi (1627).  He likes reading by nature, and is familiar with Tianguan, Fengjiao, Sun and Wu's art of war.  After joining Li Zicheng, he was put into great use, and he formulated strategies and strategies for Li Zicheng, and was promoted to the position of prime minister. However, this man was narrow-minded and liked to exercise power. He acted according to the wind and had no words of loyalty.  After Li Zi succeeded or failed and retreated to Xiangyang, he and his son Niu Quan saw that the situation was not good.  He immediately abandoned Li Zicheng and lived an anonymous life.  Once, his ship was in danger on the Yangtze River. By some mistake, he happened to be rescued by Zheng Zhilong. Over time, Zheng Zhilong became his "benefactor".  ¡°Both of them were once influential figures, and they were both destitute people in the world.  And they are not willing to be lonely.  Especially for people like Niu Jinxing, if the world is peaceful, nothing will happen to him.  So he is afraid that the world will not be in chaos!  The Zheng family was so rich that it could rival the country, and they were divided into one side. After accepting the Qin Dynasty's invitation to peace, they donated a huge sum of nine million taels to Qin Mu.  Niu Xingjin was amazed by the wealth of his family.  In addition, there are still many people in the Zheng family's old department who are generals in the navy, which means they have both money, food and soldiers.  After Zheng Zhilong¡¯s return, he has been living a low-key and secluded life. Niu Jinxing has a genius.  His tongue shines like a lotus flower. Under his repeated encouragement, Zheng Zhilong was naturally relaxed and unruly by nature.  He was extremely ambitious, so he listened to Niu Jinxing's words and asked him to plan carefully, which led to today's conspiracy.  "However, Zheng Zhilong was really wary of Qin Mu. Although he had secretly prepared for a long time, he would not have dared to launch a conspiracy if he had not received the information that Qin Mu was "severely ill."  Now Qin Mu is going to hold a court meeting and send the East China Sea Fleet south to Fujian. Zheng Zhilong panicked when he heard this.  His biggest bargaining chip is to hide in the dark, put the blame on others, mess up the situation, and then fish in troubled waters.  Once the matter is revealed, he will have no leverage at all.  Although many of the old members of the Zheng family are serving in the navy, if Qin Mu dies, Zheng Zhilong will have the confidence to respond quickly and quickly recruit these old members to form a more powerful force than before, and then use the banner of King Zhu Yihai of Lu.  Fight for the world.  But if Qin Mu is okay and finds out that the Zheng family is the mastermind behind the scenes, let alone recruiting his old troops, I am afraid that what awaits him is death by a thousand cuts.  Zheng Zhilong was also going to attend tomorrow's court meeting. He said a little uneasily: "Mr. Niu, I'm afraid this information is wrong. Qin Mu's current arrangements don't look like the deadline is approaching. On the contrary, they look like we've given them away."  Give him a chance to make him good unless he is a dissenter. "Zheng Zhilong always felt that he had been deceived by Qin Mu, and even suspected that "Qin Mu was seriously ill" was simply a trap set by Qin Mu to deceive people with different ambitions.  Drill.  If it is not true that "Qin Mu is seriously ill", then Thinking of the consequences, Zheng Zhilong felt chills running down his spine.  Niu Jinxing quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, my benefactor, we were not the only ones who got the information that night, Nanjing CityAmong the high-ranking officials and noble families here, everyone secretly spread the news.  As the saying goes, there is no smoke without fire, not to mention the fact that the imperial doctor secretly discussed Qin Mu's illness.  Time is still short, so we may not be able to see any abnormalities yet. Qin Mu¡¯s various actions are also within our expectations. Our benefactor now only needs to wait and see what happens.  " "Although Qin Mu's reaction was within our expectations, the development of the situation was very different from what we expected.  Now that the news of Qin Mu's impending death has spread, Li Guo has also raised the banner of rebellion against the "Dashun", but only a few people have responded. This is in line with Mr. Niu's previous estimate that most of the old Dashun troops were willing to do so or were forced to do so.  If they are forced to do so, they will inevitably follow Li Guo and set up rebellion.  " What kind of person Niu Jinxing is, Zheng Zhilong questioned him face to face, but he remained calm and said calmly: "Whether others follow Li Guo or not, it doesn't really matter, as long as one person follows him, it's enough!  " "Is Gao Yigong really going to be counterproductive?  "Zheng Zhilong obviously doesn't trust Niu Jinxing's calculations much. "Benefactor, Gao Guiying has rebelled. Does Gao Yigong still have a choice?  " Hearing this, Zheng Zhilong felt reassured. Their biggest hope was that Gao Yigong would use the telegram to ask Lanzhou to quickly send people to Lanzhou to relieve Gao Yigong's military power. They had already taken the first step. " I hope.  As Mr. Niu expected.  " Niu Jinxing said confidently: "Don't worry, my benefactor, Gao Yigong has military power in his hands. As long as he rebels, he can swoop into Guanzhong.  Those old generals of the Dashun Army who are still hesitant now will definitely follow suit when the time comes.  What the boss has to do now is to stay calm and not to get into trouble.  The opportunity is coming soon!  " That's what he said, but a person like Zheng Zhilong, no matter how greedy he is, will not be completely stupid, otherwise he would not have become the overlord of a party. " Just in case, he still sent someone to let Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Zhibao, Zheng Tai  , Zheng Chaonan, Zheng Ying, Zheng Cai, Zheng Xing, Zheng Ming, Yang Geng, Gan Hui, Hong Xu and others were prepared respectively. Although these people were either from the Zheng family or were brothers of Zheng Zhilong, they were reorganized.  , but after all, it is an army of nearly 100,000 people, and many of them are still serving as generals in the army; among them, Shi Lang, Ke Chenshu, and Chen Hui are still highly valued. However, it is precisely because of this that Zheng Zhilong dares not contact him for the time being.  The reason for these three people is very simple. Take Shi Lang and Ke Chenshu as examples. They were the leaders of the younger generation among the Zheng family army, but they were suppressed by a large number of seniors such as Zheng Cai, Zheng Zhibao, Gan Hui, etc., so they did not get good results.  Now Shi Lang has become the admiral of the North Sea Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Great Qin Dynasty, and he is like an emperor in Japan; Ke Chenshu has become the deputy admiral of the ocean fleet. Hai Rufeng is currently in India, and the ocean fleet is actually under Ke Chenshu.  Leader. In contrast, Shi Lang and Ke Chenshu are now much more prosperous than they were in the Zheng family army. With the emperor trusting and using them so much, he wants them to follow him to rebel unless Qin Mu dies. Therefore, Zheng Zhilong is currently in trouble.  I dare not contact these three people, including Chen Hui, to avoid losing money. However, even if Shi Lang, Chen Hui, and Ke Chenshu are eliminated, the Zheng family's strength is still very impressive.  He has strong financial resources and many years of business experience, so he doesn¡¯t know anything about it. After careful calculation, Niu Jinxing said at this time: "My lord, the blame placed on Li Guo has been discovered by Qin Mu, and we are just in time.  The second step was taken to put the blame for the assassination of the prince on others again.  " "Who is Mr. Niu going to blame?  ¡± ******************* ps: Thanks to Xuanyuan Wu, Jinxun99, and Wei Ge6328 for their monthly tickets or rewards, thank you. .(To be continued, please search  Piaotian Literature, the novels are better and updated faster!
