Zhu Cihong was of course no stranger to Zhu Youlang.
He was the grandson of Emperor Shenzong and could be said to be a direct bloodline.
Therefore, in the original history, Zhu Youlang could come to the throne later when Emperor Longwu had already proclaimed himself emperor.
But this was in the original history when all three princes of Chongzhen were missing.
But in this time and space, with Zhu Cixiang, the real prince of Chongzhen, it would not be Zhu Youlang's turn anyway.
This King Gui has made such a big move.
In addition to being very courageous, there must be someone instigating and supporting him.
Rather than being angry, Zhu Cixiang wanted to find out who was behind it.
Ambition has always been a terrible poison.
If Zhu Youlang is really planning to launch a rebellion, it will be a serious blow to the great Ming Dynasty.
You must know that Ming Dynasty is generally united internally and externally.
With Zhu Youlang showing up like this, it would be unimaginable if he was taken advantage of by someone with intentions.
The rhythm of handling this kind of thing is very important.
In Zhu Cixiang's words, it must be steady and ruthless, without any hesitation.
Zhu Cixiang took a deep breath and ordered to Han Zanzhou: "Tell the people from the Military Intelligence Department to investigate this matter thoroughly.
I want to find out who is behind the instigation of King Gui's rebellion."
Han Zanzhou was overjoyed when he heard this and responded repeatedly: "My slave, I obey."
The emperor handed over such an important matter to the inner factory, which proves that in the emperor's mind, the inner factory is the most important intelligence agency.
Dongchang and Jinyiwei were already far behind the inner factory.
As long as he gets this done, his status in the eyes of the emperor will rise again, and it is not impossible to catch up with or even surpass Liu Chuanzong.
Although Liu Chuanzong was a direct descendant of the East Palace, the inner court still relied on ability.
If it works well for you, why would Your Majesty choose someone else?
Zhu Cixiang suddenly felt a little tired, waved his hand and said: "Please step aside, I want to take a rest alone."
"Slave, please retire" Liu Chuanzong and Han Zanzhou said one after another.
The two of them looked at each other after leaving the Nuan Pavilion, and then each walked away with a cold snort.
Guangxi, Wuzhou.
King Gui Zhu Youlang looked far away from the high pavilion of the palace, and saw the rolling hills in the distance.
The mountains in Guangxi are not high, giving people a very mediocre feeling.
But when you get closer, you realize that mountains are still mountains, and people are like ants compared to them.
Isn’t this the case when comparing a prince to an emperor?
In the eyes of the people, the prince was a high-ranking thousand years old, but in the eyes of the emperor, he was just a clan that could be disposed of at will.
If you want to cut the feudal clan, you can cut it off.
That’s all.
However, he was kept in a closed area like a pig and could not leave even a step.
The vassal princes had no choice but to have fun in the palace and do the things between men and women.
This is also the reason why most of the feudal princes have many families and a prosperous population.
But Zhu Youlang is an exception.
Although the relationship between men and women is wonderful, it is still far inferior to power.
If he could ascend to a high position one day, the feeling of dominating the world would definitely drive him crazy.
He had just been granted the title of king, and he should have stayed in the fiefdom honestly, but Governor Qu's words not long ago made his already restless heart agitate.
Qu Shishu was the governor of Guangxi, and his support gave Zhu Youlang great confidence.
But Guangxi is just a small place after all.
Although most of the Northland has been lost now, the Ming Dynasty still owns half of the country.
Using a small area to fight against half the world is like using a mantis' arm as a chariot.
At least it has to gain the support of Guangdong.

But Ding Kuichu, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, is a famous old fox and never makes bets easily.
It is obviously difficult for him to put his wealth and life on the line that Zhu Youlang can overthrow Zhu Cihong and ascend to Dabao.
Zhu Youlang asked Qu Shiqi to test it twice, but he failed to get the desired result.
If Ding Kuichu's attitude is ambiguous, things will be a little difficult to handle.
People say that Guangdong and Guangxi are prosperous, but if we look at it strictly, it is Guangdong that is prosperous, and Guangxi is just a foil.
At most, it’s just that the climate is suitable for growing rice.
But without a strong army, no matter how much food there is, it is useless.
Zhu Youlang could only order Qu Shiqi to try again to win Ding Kuichu's support.
Just when they thought their future was dark, a ray of light suddenly shone in.
This beam of light is Zheng Zhilong.
Zheng Zhilong wanted to buy grain from Guangxi, so he came to see him.
Qu Shishu immediately told Zhu Youlang the news, and Zhu Youlang couldn't help but be ecstatic.
Just when I was about to go to sleep, someone handed me a pillow.
Zheng Zhilong showed up just in time.
To sell, of course the grain must be sold to Zheng Zhilong.
You must know that there are now rumors that Zheng Zhilong secretly communicated with the Eastern captives, and the emperor ordered all provinces to strictly prohibit the sale of grain to Zheng Zhilong, in order to punish the Zheng family, which is on both sides of the aisle.
Although Zheng Zhilong could buy grain from Nanyang, it took too long and the cost was too high.
Zheng Zhilong would naturally be very happy if he could buy grain from Guangxi.
Of course, Zhu Youlang was not a bodhisattva who did good deeds.
The reason why he came to help was to get Zheng Zhilong's support to start an incident.
Since Ding Kuichu has not expressed his stance for a long time, then he should choose Zheng Zhilong.
Although Fujian is a little further away, it is only separated by Guangdong.
Ding Kuichu, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, is stationed in Guangzhou.
Even if this person does not seek refuge with Zhu Youlang, nothing will happen to him.
He is most likely to turn a blind eye.
This is enough for Zhu Youlang.
Compared with Ding Kuichu, Zheng Zhilong is a more suitable candidate for Zhu Youlang.
First, Zheng Zhilong holds an invincible navy with more than 100,000 armored soldiers.
Secondly, there are Tatars behind Zheng Zhilong.
Although the Tatars have committed many atrocities since entering the country, no one can deny their strength.
If necessary, Zhu Youlang would not mind joining Qing Jun's side.
As long as he finally obtains the throne, there is nothing wrong with ceding Shandong.
According to him, Shandong's position is very embarrassing, so it would be better to rule across the river with the Tatars.
Of course, these are all things for later.
The most important thing now is to obtain Zheng Zhilong's commitment, otherwise everything will be empty talk.
Not long ago, Zhu Youlang sent a confidant to Fujian to contact Zheng Zhilong.
Although Qu Shichen also represents him, there is a layer between them after all.
It's better to deal with this kind of thing directly.
After careful calculation, the people he sent have been gone for more than half a month, and they should be back soon.
Will Zheng Zhilong agree to cooperate?
Zhu Youlang felt very uneasy.
At this time, Zhu Youlang recruited soldiers for training on a small scale, only a few thousand people.
If Zheng Zhilong agrees to cooperate, Zhu Youlang will spend all his wealth to recruit an army and strive to recruit tens of thousands of people.
In this way, including Qu Shichun's troops, there will be 100,000.
With these soldiers and horses, Zhu Youlang will be confident and will not have to be controlled by others everywhere
