Zhao Ming has not actually relaxed his surveillance of the Zhu clan.At the beginning of Wuchang City, Zhao Ming planned to completely destroy the forces surnamed Zhu, but because Zhu Yihai intervened in the rear, Wu Sangui and Chen soldiers on the border, ready to intervene in the internal war of the Ming Dynasty, so that Zhao Ming had to compromise.Zhao Ming had no choice but to acquiesce to the Longwu family to continue to work in.After that, Zhao Ming returned to Nanjing, first got rid of the disobedient Zhu Yihai, and set up Zhu Youlang as the emperor to solve the internal disharmony.After solving and purging the Zhu Yihai faction in the Nanjing court, Zhao Ming immediately divided and divided the Longwu faction on the one hand, expanded the army on the other, sorted out the internal affairs of the Yongli court, enriched the treasury, and gradually secured the position of regent.At this time, Zhao Ming's soldiers were strong and strong, he wanted soldiers and soldiers, money and money, and gradually took control of the situation, and he began to regret that he did not completely solve the problem of the clan at the beginning.Since then, in fact, Zhao Ming has already thought about how to attack the clan, but he has no excuse.After all, the Ming Dynasty was established for nearly three hundred years, and the clan population was hundreds of thousands, occupying a lot of social wealth, and there was no need to pay taxes, and the court had to pay for it.Of course, the imperial court has long stopped the clan's fortune, but the clan power is still hindering the development of the Ming Dynasty, as well as the reforms that Zhao Ming will carry out.Most of the clans of the Ming Dynasty were so rich that they were rich, and if they were rich, they would have power.The privileges of the clan come from the royal status, and they are naturally politically royalistic, so they will never tolerate Zhao Ming controlling the government and threatening the Zhu family.The contradictions between Zhao Ming and them are almost irreconcilable, and they can only be completely separated.To this end, Zhao Ming eliminated the emperor's influence on the imperial court and moved the cabinet and the imperial court to Yangzhou, while on the other hand, he was loosely monitoring the clan on the outside and on the inside, waiting for the clan to make mistakes.After all, the surname of Daming Jiangshan is Zhu, and Zhao Ming has reached an agreement with Zhu Yuyu, Zhu Yuyi, Zhu Linyuan, and Zhu Yihai before, and it always needs a defensible excuse to do it.Since last year, after Zhao Ming moved to Yangzhou, he deliberately relaxed his surveillance of Zhu Yihai, and he was also more indulgent to the Tang family.Sure enough, the Military Intelligence Department soon discovered that there were a number of Jiangbei generals who had been dismissed in Nanjing.Back then, Zhao Ming forced Zhu Yihai to abdicate, and then carried out a large-scale purge of his descendants, and many Jiangbei Army officers and soldiers were driven out of the army.Although Zhao Ming paid severance pay, the soldiers who have fought for more than ten years know nothing but war, and they can't bear the loneliness of farming, so they quickly spent their severance pay and lived all over the south of the Yangtze River.The large number of these people appeared in Nanjing, which immediately aroused Zhao Ming's vigilance and asked the Military Intelligence Department to secretly monitor them.Soon after, Zhao Ming summoned the feudal domains and sent troops to the Northern Expedition, Li Dingguo, Jin Shenghuan, Gao Yigong and others all brought nearly 10,000 elite soldiers to help in the war, and the three feudatories of the Tang Dynasty combined, sent less than 10,000 troops, and the soldiers and horses were all new pawns, completely fooling Zhao.Zhao Ming's Northern Expedition, the south must be empty, and for those who oppose him, it will be a chance, and it will be the only opportunity.If Zhao Ming's Northern Expedition succeeds and Shenjing is recovered, then even if Zhao Ming wants to seek a dynasty to usurp the throne, no one in the world will have an opinion, and even if Zhao Ming does not seek a dynasty to usurp the throne, everyone in the world will be anxious for Zhao Ming, how can the regent not be the emperor.Zhao Ming contacted the former Jiangbei army generals who appeared in the city of Nanjing, and saw the strength of the Tang feudatories, so he had a premonition that the clan was going to do something.However, Zhao Ming didn't actually pay attention to the actions of the clan.If before the battle of Wuchang, the clan surnamed Zhu united to deal with Zhao Ming, Zhao Ming was still a little worried, but now Zhao Ming has been a regent for nearly three years, the court is his people, and the places are all his henchmen, he is not only not worried about the actions of the clan, but deliberately connived and waited for them to act.Therefore, after Zhao Ming noticed the signs, he did not collect the action, but arranged the affairs of the imperial court and various places, and continued the Northern Expedition, preparing to solve Azig again, and at the same time, he also disposed of the clan by the way.When Zhao Ming captured Xuzhou, the news came from the Military Intelligence Department that Zhu Yihai didn't know where to get a large sum of money, and began to contact his former subordinates, and a large number of Jiangbei troops who were dismissed by Zhao Ming gathered in Nanjing.At the same time, the vassal soldiers of the Tang king, the king of Yue, and the king of Hubei were also ready to move, and took a merchant ship to secretly go to Nanjing.After Zhao Ming received the report from the Military Intelligence Department, he knew that Zhu Yihai and others were going to take advantage of his Northern Expedition to make a move in Nanjing.Therefore, after Zhao Ming captured Xuzhou, he did not immediately go north, but waited for Zhu Yihai to make a move, and began to make arrangements to appease and win over all forces.Zhao Ming used the northern land to draw the merchants, the Jiangnan gentry, and the army, including Li Dingguo, Jin Shenghuan and others, to his side, and then secretly summoned the cabinet members who stayed in Yangzhou, as well as the confidant ministers, and sent Guanyinxi to Liaodong to settle the surrendered army.Zhao Ming was ready, and when Zhu Yihai launched, the army immediately returned to the division and suppressed the clan rebellion.Who knew that Zhu Yihai and the others were too cowardly, and when they saw Zhao Ming's army stopped in Xuzhou, they didn't dare to launch it at all.Seeing this, Zhao Ming hesitated for a while, and finally decided to take the risk of going north to give Zhu Yihai a chance.Sure enough, not long after Zhao Ming's army arrived in Beijing, the clan forces in Nanjing believed that Zhao Ming was far away from Jiangnan and went deep into the territory of the Eastern Qing Dynasty, and finally launched a coup d'état and took control of Nanjing.In this way, the clan can use the name of the emperor to spread the message to all parts of Jiangnan, designate Zhao Ming as a national thief, and take the opportunity to control Jiangnan, Zhao Ming is difficult to return to.At that time, under the joint efforts of the Nanjing clan, the Eastern Qing Dynasty, and Wu Sangui of the Zhou State, Zhao Ming will be attacked on three sides, and the Longwu family in the Northern Expedition will take the opportunity to make trouble, and Zhao Ming will inevitably be defeated.It's just that Zhu Yihai didn't expect that Zhao Ming was scheming and had been waiting for them to do this for a long time.Of course, Zhu Yihai actually sensed that something was wrong and realized that Zhao Ming might set up a trap for him, but Zhu Yihai couldn't let go of this opportunity.Because once Zhao Ming recovers Shenjing, his position will be unshakable, and Zhu Yihai will have no chance.Therefore, Zhu Yihai knew that there was a risk, but he also had to give it a go.At this time, Zhao Ming was in the south, in fact, it had been arranged, although Zhu Yihai controlled the city of Nanjing, but the cabinet and the six ministries had already been transferred to Yangzhou, Nanjing had just had a coup d'état, and Chen Mingyu, a scholar who stayed behind, had already responded to control the scope of turmoil in Nanjing.Now Zhu Yihai actually only controls an isolated city in Nanjing.In Jiangnan, Zhao Ming was ready, Wu Sangui of Zhou State, and the fierce battle in Mongolia was still in the fierce battle, and Azig was even more difficult to protect himself, everything was actually under Zhao Ming's control.At this time, Zhao Ming was acting in front of Li Dingguo and others, in fact, relying on the righteousness of the Northern Expedition and the recovery of Shenjing, forcing everyone to stand in line and express their position.On the one hand, there is a regent who is bent on recovering Beijing and is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and on the other hand, there is a corrupt clan that disregards the righteousness and drags its feet behind.Not to mention, the Northern Expedition is related to their vital interests, and it is related to whether the farm can be cashed in, just seeing that Beijing will be captured, it is not difficult to choose, no one wants to be Qin Hui and leave a thousand bones infamy.In this matter, if they help the clan, with the urine of the clan, they will not end well.Moreover, the Zhu family has always rewarded the people of their old Zhu family richly, but they are quite stingy with these generals.If the clan wins, they will not be beneficial, maybe in the future, because of political needs, Zhao Ming will be rehabilitated, and they will inevitably be used to blame them, like Qin Hui.
