Zhang Cunren was very angry that the Nanjing court not only did not support him, but instead divided his strength. But what he didn't know was that when he was trying to seize Zhejiang for the Nanjing court, the Nanjing court faced a very difficult problem, that is, the court sent a good news to Qingdao, informing the Ming Dynasty that it had returned to Nanjing, but it was hostile. The United States of China and the China Alliance, led by Li Mingxun, did not recognize the Nanjing court at all.

"... The traitor Wu thieves stole the Dianjing, abducted Emperor Ming, and resigned the Tumu change, and the disaster of the Oirat. After more than a year, there was no news. The whole family of our Hua League was worried and angry. They were afraid that the Wu thieves abused Emperor Ming. Therefore, even if they had a new emperor and the words of the emperor were established, they had not been implemented. They only followed the agreement between the two countries and asked the head of state to act as the leader. You would do the wrong actions, hiding evil intentions, and contact the great rebellion. The chief traitors Hong Chengchou, Wu Sangui, Zhang Cunren and others had to do the affairs of the central court. The so-called return to Nanjing was actually to occupy Shenzhou. If we return to our leader, Emperor Ming, now, we still have a chance. If we do illegal again, we will only die..."

A reply letter made Qian Qianyi lose the enthusiasm of being in Nanjing for this period of time. After reading it, Hong Chengchou, who hurried to Nanjing, asked in surprise: "How could this happen? Dongfan is so decisive."

In fact, the traitors who participated in the Nanjing plan to restore the capital were all one. As long as the emperor was in hand and controlled the Yangtze River in the name of the Ming Dynasty, especially the Jiangnan region, he could gain the name of orthodox and be recognized by the Eastern Federation. Then the two sides divided the sphere of influence and territory. No one thought that even if they succeeded, they would not be recognized by Li Mingxun. In the eyes of the United States, the Nanjing court was a group of traitors who held the pseudo-dynasty established by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, which was the same as the Ola captured Emperor Yingzong of Ming back then.

"In my opinion, Dongfan's move is a huge price to repay the money. The Jiangnan and Huguang are all rich places. We can also take advantage of the fact that Dongfan and the Qing Dynasty have not yet decided to win and lose, and go north to restore Henan, Shanxi, and Shaanxi. Dongfan saw the provinces falling into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, so we could make such a desperate statement. The purpose is to share the territory." Wu Yingxiong said in a deep voice.

"It's not entirely true." Suddenly, a sudden voice scared the three of them. They stood up directly because it was Emperor Yongli who was talking.

This makes people feel confused. Since they returned to Nanjing, the emperor has only participated in etiquette matters, and all military and political affairs have been pushed to the cabinet headed by Qian Qianyi. In order to take full care of the emperor's face, the cabinet did not avoid the emperor's discussions, but the emperor never spoke, just holding a stack of books and magazines, reading or copying, and doing selflessly. At first, everyone was not used to it, but after asking, I found out that since Qu Shixi's death, the emperor has been a complete puppet. No matter who he is, it is like this. Why did he actually speak today?

Yongli put down his pen, but was blocked by the book in front of him. He stood up and said, "My dear friends, according to the "Hua Alliance Treaty" signed by our Ming and Eastern Fan in Yunnan, our Nanjing court was indeed a pseudo-gong."

Everyone looked at each other, and Qian Qianyi asked, "Emperor, as far as I know, the Treaty of Huameng determines that you are the supreme leader of this alliance, right? You are in Nanjing, you are orthodox."

Yongli shook his head slightly: "Obviously, my dear friends have not studied that treaty carefully, but I know that although I am the supreme leader, it is not the only one. According to the treaty, if I am not here, Li Mingxun will be the leader. If Li Mingxun is not here, he will be the crown prince, and then the King of Jin and King of Shu... I went to Shu in the north of the north of the spring of last year and could not fulfill the responsibilities of the leader. The position of this leader is Li Mingxun."

"Where is such a bad agreement? My Emperor of Ming Dynasty is still here. How can I get Li Bid to get this great throne?" Wu Yingxiong said angrily.

Yongli thought about it and shook his head. He did not know much about the Treaty of the China Alliance, so he said: "My dear friends, the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the Eastern Federation cannot be related to historical countries. There are provisions in the treaty on military, political and diplomatic matters between the two countries. Otherwise, they would not be anxious for tens of thousands of words. In fact, if this treaty is not important, who is the leader? The measures of the China Alliance to the outside world need to comply with the treaty, otherwise it is an illegal act. Have you not read these guiding programs carefully?"

Wu Yingxiong looked at Qian, Hong, Qian Qianyi and Hong Chengchou looked at each other, and they all shook their heads. It was not that they had not seen it, but they had not studied it, and they were just looking at the program. Wu Yingxiong asked: "Your Majesty, you are the emperor, just order the emperor and modify the alliance."

Yongli said: "My imperial edict is not enough. The revision of the fundamental terms of the covenant needs to be recognized by the Senate of the Eastern Band and the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty, and the vassal kings."

This is to prevent someone from holding the emperor hostage, but at that time I didn’t expect that there would be today. I just thought that if the emperor was in Yunnan, if any vassal general held the emperor hostage and destroyed the alliance.

"It seems that we need someone who understands the Treaty of the China Alliance to counsel our military and national affairs, otherwise we will be passive everywhere." Hong Chengchou said.

"It's too late to get it now. Who can understand the agreement with more than 100,000 words in a short time?" Wu Yingxiong muttered.

It was hard for several people to believe that after a long time of trouble, the Ming emperor he captured would be the common people and would not work for the Eastern Band. The biggest wish of the Nanjing court today is that the interests of the court and the people in the imperial court can be recognized by the Eastern Band. Otherwise, after the Eastern Band was over, they would be able to attack themselves. Now everyone understands that they are far behind the Eastern Band, which leads to the fact that the army is completely unable to compete. Just to make up for the gap in technology and military equipment, it will take more than ten years. If they cannot be recognized by the Eastern Band, what is the difference between the ending and the Qing court?

But this group of people didn't think about it. Even if they could force Li Mingxun to recognize the Nanjing court from a legal perspective, could the military nobles and capitalists of the United States sit down and watch this group of traitors occupy the most prosperous and fertile banks of the Yangtze River in the Eastern continent?

Seeing a group of people wondering why, Yongli said, "I read the articles of the students in the Jiangnan Provincial Examination that day and found that a student from Nanjing, Wei Changsheng, named Yakui, the sixth place in this provincial examination. His articles mostly talk about the treaty of the Huameng League, and he is familiar with this."

"Is it the filial son?" Qian Qianyi asked.

Yongli nodded slightly. After Yongli returned to Nanjing, he held a provincial examination to re-elect talents by taking advantage of his scholars in Nanjing. Most of the nine sons of Jiangnan, such as Xu Wei, were on the list, while Wei Changsheng's articles were not excellent, but the name of Xiaotilang had a great influence. Therefore, Qian Qianyi ordered a sixth place, but he never thought of listening to this person's name again today.

We don’t talk about the emperor and justice, we only talk about treaties and laws. This is the relationship between the United States and the Ming Kingdom after the signing of the China Alliance Treaty. However, Qian Qianyi and others did not have much contact with the China Alliance Treaty and were restricted by old thinking. They had no idea of ​​the political significance of the China Alliance Treaty to the two countries, but Wei Changsheng knew it.

After Emperor Ming returned to Nanjing, he quickly held the provincial examination again. Wei Changsheng won the sixth place, but he knew very well that the Nanjing court had once again changed the principle of employing people and serving as officials back to the standards before the Jiashen National Migration. In the past, whether it was the state-controlled regime or the Yongli regime, not only did it widely grant titles, but it also lowered the standards for civil servants. A large number of juren flooded the center. However, now, the Ming Dynasty was still in Nanjing, where talents were prosperous, using juren as a cabinet minister would be a gentleman. Because of this, Wei Changsheng, who became a juren, did not choose to enter the officialdom. As a juren, even though he had a good background, he could at most a magistrate. This did not help him to enter the center and obtain information. Preparing for the imperial examination and passing the imperial examination next year was his next main task.

Wei Mansion.

"Oh, don't make trouble with him. Changsheng is now a juren. Time has to be used to make friends with scholars and discuss articles. It will be better to get a Jinshi exam next spring. You are planning to marry him. If he is rich and rich, his future will be ruined. You have to calm down and don't leak the news to your father-in-law, otherwise, the old man is more active than you." Lei Kesheng lowered his voice and reminded Wei Zhu.

Wei Zhu was quite annoyed: "My son is seventeen, and it is already time to get married. You were not happy in Shandong before, but now you have become a juren, but you still don't want to wait for the Jinshi next year. You will be eighteen next year and may not be able to pass the exam. If you pass the exam, you will have to become an official outside, and it is even more time..."

"My son has a good future, don't worry." Rickson comforted his wife's unwilling mood.

"What's the good thing? My son is still a little famous now. Otherwise, he would have found an errand while the Ming Dynasty is still in the middle of next year, and the reputation he had finally accumulated will not be used." Wei Zhu was still a little unhappy.

"Short-eyed!" Seeing that she didn't listen to her advice, Lek Sheng was a little annoyed. Suddenly, he saw the butler coming in. The butler said, "Master, Madam, the butler of Qian's mansion has come, and said he was asking our young master to go to the mansion to discuss it."

"Qian Mansion, which Qian Mansion?" Wei Zhu was stunned.

The housekeeper smiled and said, "Oh, which Qian Mansion is the family of the chief minister of the dynasty? Of course, it is the family of Qian Mansion."

Rickson laughed: "Did you see it? Tell me about the future, my son's future is here."

Wei Zhu was so happy that after asking, he realized that his son was still in the study room and hurried to help Wei Changsheng clean up his clothes, so he asked him to go.

Wei Changsheng had known that the court would summon him. He knew very well that as long as the Ming Dynasty dealt with the United States, no matter whether it was a peace or a war, he could not avoid the "Treaty of Huameng". He had prepared and studied it properly. He not only mentioned it in the provincial examination, but also discussed current affairs with Xu Wei and others during this period, and also discussed it many times, just to let the group of cabinet ministers who were unfamiliar with their intentions come to him. A filial son and brother-in-law were replaced by a juren. If he made some achievements in this regard, he would have to become a Jinshi next year.

Obviously, Qian Qianyi was very urgent to summon Wei Changsheng and directly led the housekeeper to the study. When he saw Qian Qianyi, Wei Changsheng worshipped him with great gifts. Qian Qianyi was not arrogant and said, "No need to be too polite, get up and talk."

The housekeeper brought tea and closed the door and went out. Qian Qianyi patted a thick treaty on the table and asked, "Changsheng, Xu Wei and the others said, you have a deep understanding of Dongfan and are familiar with the "Treaty of Huameng", but is it true?"

"Students have indeed studied it, but they dare not say they have any insights." Wei Changsheng said modestly.

Qian Qianyi asked: "When did you study it, and how did you get this text?"

Wei Changsheng said: "The emperor was still in Nanjing. The students felt that our Ming Dynasty was in danger now, especially its relationship with the Eastern Federation, which was the primary priority for the establishment of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, before the provincial examination, I invited my father to buy the text of the treaty and devoted myself to research. In fact, the students did not come to this treaty at first, but what they saw and heard was that the Eastern Federation was strong, the military strategy was changing, the military was excellent, and the system was advanced. The students thought that if the Eastern Federation had only been established for fourteen years, there would be such a situation and they would definitely have strengths. The Ming Dynasty was in danger. If they could learn from the barbarians' skills to control the barbarians, it would be a great good."

"A good sentence of learning from the barbarians to control the barbarians is really a sudden enlightenment." Qian Qianyi praised the teacher with a touch of his hand.

Wei Changsheng said he was afraid, and Qian Qianyi said: "Changsheng is worthy of being a model for my scholars of the Ming Dynasty. He is well-versed in Confucian classics and is knowledgeable about practical learning. In the future, he will definitely be a pillar of the Ming Dynasty."

Wei Changsheng didn't dare to agree. Seeing that he was humble, Qian Qianyi liked him even more and said, "You are a maid like this. I originally wanted to accept you as a disciple, but I was worried that the spring exam next year will affect your future. So let's do this first. Can you help the court analyze the treaty of the Hua Alliance, find a wonderful method, and resolve the dilemma of our Ming Dynasty in the past few days."

"This is a blessing for students. Students can be guided by adults and have no regrets in this life." Wei Changsheng said.

Then, Wei Changsheng asked carefully: "My lord just mentioned the dilemma. Is it because the Li thief in the East Fan who refused to recognize my Ming court?"

"Oh, how do you know about this?" Qian Qianyi asked. This is a real secret. It will cause panic if it is spread. Now the people in Jiangnan are in a high position. The things they like are not subject to the Qing Dynasty, and the other is that they are not afraid of the East Fan liquidation in the future. But if it is spread, they will be afraid that the next one will be worried again.

Wei Changsheng was half guessed, and half was the instructions obtained by Reksheng from the Security Bureau. He said: "If the East Fan covets the richness of Jiangnan in accordance with the Treaty of Huameng, it must not be agreed."

"Sure enough, Changsheng is well versed in the study of the barbarians, and I did not find the wrong person." Qian Qianyi said.

The two discussed the details for a while, and felt that the convoy was so complicated that Qian Qianyi could only let Wei Changsheng go back, indicating that he would invite Juncai to analyze it again.

It was late at night that Wei Changsheng returned home. When Wei Zhu saw his son tired and seemed to be indifferent, he asked, "But Lord Qian is making things difficult for you."

"No, I'm just busy and tired. I'll go again tomorrow. The Prime Minister said that he would ask his son to go to his mansion during the day. He also said that if he didn't want to participate in the spring exam next year, he would accept his son as his disciple." After successfully approaching Qian Qianyi, Wei Changsheng felt that his lurking had been mostly successful, and he was also happy.

"Oh, if you are asked to go every day, how can you still have time to study? How can you get the Jinshi next year?" Wei Zhu said worriedly.
Chapter completed!
