Chapter Eleven Household Affairs of the Royal Palace

Chapter 11                                                             �

Zhou Mengchen didn't know that the King of Raoyang even reported to impeach him as the governor. However, he didn't take it seriously if he knew about it.

The level of King Raoyang is the average level of the vassal kings that Zhou Mengchen knew.

It’s one thing to take yourself too seriously. I think I am really a shareholder of the Ming Dynasty. But I don’t expect that there is no status in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhou Mengchen was not interested in why Xu Ren left his post. He knew that this was fundamentally Yan Song's movement. Because Yan Song wanted to use Datong's position to make Zhou Mengchen fall into the mud. As for the reasons on the surface, it was not important.

However, King Raoyang has never been in contact with the political center, so he naturally has his own way of taking it for granted.

Zhou Mengchen said, "I don't understand what King Raoyang means. What does King Raoyang want me to do?"

King Raoyang sneered and said, "Don't pretend to be confused when you understand."

Zhou Mengchen didn't want to talk to King Raoyang. He bowed to King Dai and said, "Since King Dai has guests, I will say goodbye."

The King of Dai hurriedly came out and sent him a few steps. Zhou Mengchen strode away, and the quarrels of the King of Dai could be vaguely heard.

Zhou Mengchen said intimately: "Maybe this is an opportunity."

As soon as Zhou Mengchen left the palace, he met Xu Wei and explained the situation, saying, "Check, what's going on with King Raoyang?"

A trace of light flashed in Xu Wei's eyes, as if he had thought of something. He said, "I understand."

I don’t know if Xu Wei’s work efficiency is fast, or if the new Li Kuanyuan is very capable, the grudges between King Raoyang and King Dai are presented to Zhou Mengchen.

At this moment, Zhou Mengchen was meeting local generals in Datong one by one, letting Ma Fang accompany him. Fourteen commanders, nine generals, and there were already thousands of guards, etc. Zhou Mengchen did not dare to say that they all had to go through them. However, Zhou Mengchen still had to go through some of the generals in the lead.

Zhou Mengchen felt that Xu Wei's method was a bit too absolute.

It is true that the army of the garrison collapsed. Most of the garrisons can no longer fight. The border army system has garrisons, guerrillas, generals, and new battalion systems. However, in essence, the generals are all in a group, all with a national position. This is also a battalion soldiers, and they are only selected from the garrisons that can be fought.

But it cannot be said that there is nothing to fight here.

Zhou Shangwen said that it was also in this system.

Therefore, Zhou Mengchen did not pay attention to Xu Wei's opinion. Instead, he felt that Xu Wei's one-size-fits-all approach was not possible. Although there were no unjust dead people under the temple, the problem was that killing people was not easy to fill the gap in personnel. There were not many generals left in Zhou Shangwen and his group. Although Zhou Mengchen also had some old subordinates, he could not fully control Datong Town.

Moreover, Zhou Mengchen could not really take everyone in Datong Town into his own hands. This is also a taboo.

He wanted to select some generals from the local generals in Datong and use them for his own use.

Zhou Mengchen Xu Wei brought the information over and signaled Ma Fang. He asked Ma Fang to wait for a while. He took the information of King Raoyang and took a closer look. He sneered and said intimately: "These two people are really a perfect match."

A domineering uncle, a cowardly Dai king.

The story of King Dai and King Raoyang is a simple matter of an uncle falling in love with his nephew's property. This story starts with King Dai Zhu Gui. This first generation King Dai was not a good person. He was even arrogant and did not even let his son go.

Zhu Gui’s matter is not the focus. I won’t say much. In short, Zhu Gui’s actions have led to the inheritance of the Dai Wang lineage, which is not the direct lineage.

This is the psychological basis of King Raoyang. I think you, King Dai, are not the legitimate lineage, why? You are King Dai, I am King Raoyang, why can't I be King Dai? Are you King Raoyang?

King Dai was young. After his father died, King Raoyang made an excuse that King Dai was young and interfered in the affairs of the Prince Dai’s mansion. In fact, King Dai was not the court, so what major matters needed to be handled. It was just the excuse that King Raoyang moved many of the property of the Prince Dai’s lineage to his own name.

As a result, the king of Raoyang was rich and the king of Dai suffered heavy losses.

The reason why Zhou Mengchen is a perfect match for the two is because King Raoyang is too bold and King Dai is too cowardly.

The court attaches great importance to the superiors and inferiors. Since the Dai King is already the Dai King, it will not be replaced easily. Even if you want to seize the throne, you should find a solution within the court. Instead of directly attacking the Dai King, what if he kills the Dai King?

Could it be that Beijing would make him a contemporary king? It is simply impossible.

And so is Dai Wang.

Although the Dai King was young, he had already grown up when he inherited the Dai King. Of course, he was a teenager and was still in high school in his later generations, so he should be regarded as a child. But in this era, teenagers were really adults. To be honest, when Jiajing entered Beijing, it was the actual year, and Yang Tinghe was still overturned.

The King of Dai has a great reputation, but it really doesn't work. He can file a complaint with the court. How can King Raoyang be bullied like this?

I don’t know, I really think that the Dai Wangfu is not the Dai Wangfu of the Ming Dynasty, but an independent Dai Kingdom.

However, the personalities of these two people also gave Zhou Mengchen a new idea. After all, Dai Wangfan was a relative vassal. If Zhou Mengchen could not deal with it, he would rather not deal with it with it by himself. Even if it was okay for a while, it would be difficult to say it over time.

Zhou Mengchen called Xu Wei over and said, "You have read all the contents in it?"

Xu Wei said: "I have seen it."

Zhou Mengchen said, "You think King Dai is in Datong, next to the Tartars, and is shocked three times a day. The King Dai is very uncomfortable when he wants to come."

After hearing this, Xu Wei's heart moved slightly.

Zhou Mengchen said, "I remember that there were several moves to the vassals in the early days of the country. I think our prince is willing to do it."

Xu Wei said: "Of course there are. King Ning, King Han, and King Shen were all enfeoffed in Liaodong at the beginning."

Zhou Mengchen said: "You go and talk to the prince about this matter. If he wants, there are some things that I can't solve for him."

The royal family is also different. With Zhou Mengchen's current status and ability, it is not impossible to destroy the lineage of the Dai Wang, but he has to worry about backlash. However, he has to destroy a prince, so he doesn't have to worry about so much. In addition, the Dai Wang migrated out of Datong. It can have the same effect. But there is no need to take more risks.

Xu Wei said, "I understand."

Zhou Mengchen said: "I'll contact King Raoyang."

Xu Wei nodded and said, "Yes."

Zhou Mengchen knew that there was no need to explain so clearly to a smart person like Xu Wei. Many things only need to be mentioned. Xu Wei can do the following things by himself, and it is even much better than Zhou Mengchen doing them himself.

Zhou Mengchen nodded and said, "Go and do it."

Xu Wei saluted Zhou Mengchen, and his behavior was somewhat convinced.

Zhou Mengchen glanced at Ma Fang. He did not avoid Ma Fang when he talked to Xu Wei just now. Ma Fang felt very consciously as if he was a stone sculpture, as if he had heard nothing and saw nothing. Zhou Mengchen smiled lightly and didn't say much. After all, Ma Fang was also his confidant, and knew what to say and what not to say.

Zhou Mengchen said: "I have seen a few of these generals, what do you think?"

Ma Fang said, "This, this----" He wanted to speak but stopped.

Zhou Mengchen sneered and said, "A group of wine bags. Could it be that the elites in Datong town have been plundered by the Old General Zhou?"

Ma Fang said, "When General Zhou was here, he loved talent as his destiny. Whenever there were warriors in Datong, he would summon him to see him. He tried his hand with bows and horses and military orders. Although Datong's elite were among the old generals. Now, the last generals had already gathered into the army. However, Datong's horses were the best in the world. Apart from the people under the command of the old general, there were not one or two heroes."

Zhou Mengchen said: "Who is there? Is it among these people?"

Ma Fang said: "Ma Lu, the right guard general of Datong."

Zhou Mengchen heard this. After looking at the list below, he found Ma Lu's name and looked at Ma Lu's information. He found that like other generals, they were all from Weishi, and had no significant results. Some only had a few victories to defend the city.

This kind of victory is nothing.

Zhou Mengchen said, "Let him come here."
