On March 15, the spring examination ended and the first top scholar in the Tianwu Dynasty was born.

The new top scholar is named Yang Tingjian, who is from Changzhou Prefecture, Zhili. What makes Zhu Cilang depressed is that this elder brother was the last top scholar in the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty in history.

Logically speaking, Yang Tingjian participated in the palace examination high school top scorer in Beijing in the 16th year of Chongzhen, but now he is not.

Because of Zhu Cilang's appearance and the historical pattern changed, Li Zicheng broke Beijing half a year ahead of schedule, and a political center also appeared in Jiangnan.

After Yang Tingjian participated in Enke in the 16th year of Chongzhen, he won a tribute. He originally went to Beijing to participate in the palace examination. Unexpectedly, he was caught by the rebel army when he passed by Henan. He was defeated and left in the army to write the slogan "Welcome the rebel king and do not pay food" for the rebel army.

After all, with the top scorer, Yang Tingjian easily fooled the Chuangbing Army and took the opportunity to run away.

It was a turmoil in the north and the army of rebels headed north. Yang Tingjian thought that the court would not hold the palace examination, so he had to pat his butt and return to Jiangnan, continue to study the classics and history, study hard, cultivate one's character, and establish integrity and shame.

A few days ago, Zhu Cixuan held a palace examination in Fengtian Palace, raising some questions about the imperial examination and the way of becoming an official.

Yang Tingjian answered the best in the audience, and he said: "To take a scholar first, then to speak, to use a person with simplicity and sincerity, to compete for evil and righteousness, regardless of the portal..."

Zhu Cixuan expressed his deep appreciation and transferred the information from the Dongchang Factory. He learned that Yang Tingjian was not full of train travel. He studied hard since childhood and was not good at dressing and silk. He was recognized as the first in Changzhou Prefecture.

Zhu Cilang vaguely remembered that the top scholar Yang Tingjian was also well-known in history. Li Zicheng, who entered the capital, attached great importance to him and asked him to be an official, but he refused and returned to his hometown to settle down.

Later, when the Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, the Qing court specially summoned the top scholar Yang Tingjian to Beijing as an official, but he refused to go there due to illness.

A few years later, Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiangnan who helped the Qing court conquer the world, recommended Yang Tingjian as an official, but he refused because his mother was not satisfied with her worries.

The adult Emperor Shunzhi asked Yang Tingjian to come out as an official several times, but he refused. Although his son was not good at becoming an official in the Qing court, Yang Tingjian did not become an official until his old age, showing the integrity that a top scholar should have.

In the officialdom, what is lacking is this kind of scholar who has integrity and remains unchanged in his original intentions. Zhu Cilang personally promoted Yang Tingjian to the top scorer and was appointed as the editor of the Hanlin Academy. He first experienced it in the center.

The rest of the new Jinshi are assigned to the Jinshi official system redefined before and are assigned to the job.

Recently, Zhu Cilang urged Zhu Chenggong to prepare for war and recover the Eastern Band.

The decree to send troops to Taiwan was passed to Fujian a month ago. Since the day the imperial edict was received, Zhu Chenggong and Zheng Hongkui handed over their posts and rushed to prepare for war.

On the first day when Zhu Chenggong was promoted to general, he tore off the Zheng family flag from the originally Pingfan fleet, hung the dragon flag high, and held a serious military parade, taking the opportunity to deal with the two thorny officers.

Zheng Hongkui was very dissatisfied with this eldest nephew and thought to himself that he had been a follower by the emperor for several years, why are he so awesome!

When he saw the murderous imperial guards beside his eldest nephew, Zheng Hongkui immediately became honest and expressed his willingness to act as the deputy general.

Zhu Chenggong and Zheng Hongkui are both pro-war factions, and they have been unhappy with the Red Manga, so all preparations are very easy to make.

Food and medicinal materials from Zhili and Zhejiang were also sent to Fujian, Red Armored Cannons, Oriental Rockets and other weapons to the front line one by one.

The thick clouds of war permeate the coast of Fujian.

With pay, food and equipment, the morale of the Pingfan fleet was greatly boosted, and Zhu Chenggong also increased his confidence. He just waited for the arrival of the trade wind, and ordered the battle across the sea and recovered the Eastern Ban (Taiwan)!

On this day, the Jinyiwei Tianzhi sent a lot of information. After political competition, the Qing Dynasty finally won the Second Tartars headed by Hong Chengchou and took control of the military formation.

Zhu Cilang did not care about the fact that the young Emperor Shunzhi recognized his father. What he paid most attention to was Hong Chengchou's next series of national policies.

"The Qing Dynasty signed an alliance with Japan and returned the occupied Shikoku Island to Japan without compensation?"

Zhu Ciyang was a little curious. Where could the Qing Dynasty develop if it didn’t attack Japan?

In the past, Zhu Cilang forced the Qing Dynasty to fight against Japan. The dog bites a dog's mouth and finally the Ming Dynasty knocked down with one stick, which saves both time and trouble.

However, now, at the call of the emperor's father, Regent Hong Chengchou, the Qing Dynasty began to set off a wave of shipbuilding, opening up several ports such as Busan to trade and exchange with Spain, Portugal and other countries. They also hired many Spanish ship workers from Manila to prepare for large ocean-going ships.

Importantly, the Qing Dynasty also hired a group of Spaniards and Portuguese as instructors of the Eight Banners Army, and helped the Qing court to supervise guns and cannons.

After reading this information, Zhu Cilang had to admire Hong Chengchou's ability.

In this era, Hong Chengchou's ability was at least the top three. In history, he performed very well in the Central Plains' Battle of Songjin.

After surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, it was a lamp for the Qing army to move south. At that time, Dorgon's "head-shaving order" aroused strong resistance from the people of Jiangnan, and the Qing army that moved south almost turned over.

In the face of danger, the Regent Dorgon hurriedly sent Hong Chengchou to replace Prince Yu Duo, who had just conquered Nanjing, and appointed him as the Grand Secretary of Military Affairs to recruit the Governor of the South and to manage several provinces in Jiangnan.

Although Hong Chengchou did not have a title of king, he directly commanded the King of Pingxi Wu Sangui, Shang Kexi, Kong Youde and other Sanshun kings, as well as some Manchurian Eight Banners Army (when encountering major events, he must participate in the implementation with General Beilelek Dehun, the General of Pingnan).

Hong Chengchou easily pacified Jiangnan for a relatively small price and also recruited Zheng Zhilong, saying that he was the "first achievement in the Qing Dynasty".

Wu Sangui, Shang Kexi, Geng Jingzhong and others were finally granted the title of prince. Hong Chengchou, who made even greater contributions, was just a third-class viscount. Because of his strong ability, the upper class of the Qing Dynasty was worried that Sima Yi would appear again and eventually he would be raised to death in Beijing.

Hong Chengchou had a fellow villager named Cao Xueqi. During the Wanli period, he asked "Charge War". Mr. Cao replied: "I am a southerner and I don't know how to fight chariots, so please use the theory of boat war."

So the examiner examined his battle, and Cao Xue carefully considered Chen's battle method. He first decided to be the first, but because he could not make an exception, he changed to tenth place.

Hong Chengchou was born in Nan'an, Quanzhou, Fujian Province. He was from the same county as Zheng Zhilong. He faced the sea (home was more than ten miles away from the sea), and was more familiar with the ocean, boat wars, etc.

Zhu Cilang did not feel any regretful if such a person was not taken over. If he had no romantic slut, how could there be more braids on the screen?

In his eyes, integrity is more important than ability, which is also the charm of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Cixuan repeated this information to judge the direction Hong Chengchou wanted to expand.

The Qing Dynasty combined with Japan was a manifestation of eating and waiting for death. However, their development of navigation must be to build maritime power.

But who do they want to fight? Counterattack the Ming Dynasty? Unless Hong Chengchou is tired of living.

Also, why don’t they seek cooperation with the Netherlands, but instead look for the Spaniards far away?
