Although Xiong Wencan doesn't know much about navigation, he at least knows that it is obviously much faster to convey news by sea than by land.

After this incident, Xiong Wencan couldn't help but rely more heavily on Xiaotian. At least in the future, with Xiaotian's way, he could get the news from the capital faster.

It can be said that it is an extremely important matter. If something good happens to the capital, it can be arranged early. If it is late, it may not even be hot.

So based on this alone, he had to take a higher look at Yu Xiaotian. The news Yu Xiaotian gave him this time was really timely. Although the current emperor is still young, under normal circumstances, there will be no driving.

However, things in the world are unpredictable. How many emperors have not died young in all dynasties in this world? There are really not many emperors who can really live to a very old age.

Now that there is news from the capital that the emperor is seriously ill, then such an unexpected situation may really happen. You must know that the death of an emperor is definitely a major event for a dynasty, and it involves the collapse of the sky and the earth.

Countless variables.

What's more important is that the current emperor has not given birth to a prince in the past few years since he inherited the throne. If the emperor dies, there will be huge variables in who will inherit the throne.

.

Although Xiong Wencan was an official in Shandong before, he always kept a close eye on the affairs of the capital. He even bought a house in the capital and arranged for reliable family members to stay in the capital to help him inquire about what happened in the capital.

affairs, so he naturally knows relatively clearly about royal matters.

After hearing the news that the Holy Emperor was seriously ill, he would naturally conduct some analysis, and finally he gradually set his sights on the current Holy Emperor's younger brother, the current King of Xin Zhu Youjian, and Yu Xiaotian

In the letter to him, it seems that this King Xin was also mentioned.

So after Xiong Wencan thought about it for a while, he decided to send someone to the capital to find a way to contact King Xin first. Regardless of whether the current emperor can survive this test, this investment is still necessary. Don't be afraid of 10,000 yuan.

Just in case, if he bets on the right thing, it will undoubtedly be a good help for his future career.

Think about it, who can be a fool when they reach the position of governor? It can be said that people who can reach this level are all good people. They should be very responsive to official affairs. Of course, Xiong Wencan is also

No exception, otherwise it would not have left a strong mark in history

Although his end in history is really sad, it does not mean that his IQ is much lower than others. It is only because of his ability and his bad mouth that he eventually became

After recruiting Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Xianzhong rebelled again, causing him to be arrested and beheaded.

On the other hand, Yu Xiaotian didn't worry too much about this matter. Although he knows the future trend of the Ming Dynasty best, he is just a small general. Although in the Ming military system,

It can be said that he has a certain status. In Fujian, he can be regarded as a person who can move the wind and rain with just a stomp of his feet. But if you put it in the entire Ming Dynasty, a general like him is actually just a small one.

Shrimp.

With his current status, if he wants to take the opportunity to curry favor with the future Emperor Chongzhen, it is really not enough. Even if he is reluctant to curry favor with him, given Chongzhen's suspicious character, it is not necessarily a good thing or a bad thing.

What Yu Xiaotian wants now is to concentrate on secretly developing and expanding his own strength. When the world is in chaos in the future, he will appear and lead his army to compete in the Central Plains. Before that, he thinks that he should not show his prowess and be conquered by the wise gods of the future.

It would be great if Emperor Chongzhen saw it.

Otherwise, one day, if the great Emperor Chongzhen is cornered by the Tatars or the likes of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, he suddenly remembers such a number one person and asks him to lead his troops north to serve as his thugs. That would be very tragic.

Got it!

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian will sell this bargain to Xiong Wencan, hoping that Xiong Wencan can seize this opportunity and rise to the top. If nothing happens, Xiong Wencan will not stop serving as governor of Fujian. According to the original development process of history, Xiong Wencan is

In the next few years, relying on his political achievements in Fujian, he will be promoted to governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.

What he needs now is to help Xiong Wencan take this step. As long as Xiong Wencan can follow normal development and become the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, he can use Xiong Wencan's power to extend his tentacles to Guangdong, Guangxi and other places in the future.

You must know that in today's world, the most prosperous region, apart from southern Zhili and Zhejiang, is Guangdong, which is the most prosperous and stable. Once he can operate Guangdong in the future as his rear base, then at least the food supply will be

The source can be guaranteed to a certain extent.

However, if he wants to extend his tentacles into Guangdong and Guangxi with the help of sea power, I am afraid that he is still unable to do so. At best, he can only sweep across the seas of Guangdong and Guangxi and become the real overlord of the Ming Dynasty. But if he wants to extend his reach to the mainland of Guangdong,

It is estimated that there are still great variables in development.

Therefore, he now needs Xiong Wencan to help him. Xiong Wencan wants to use him to achieve political achievements, so how could he not also use Xiong Wencan to achieve his own achievements?

In the following days, Yu Xiaotian was like an audience, quietly watching the various news coming back from the capital.

All the news is showing that the giant vehicle of history does not seem to have deflected too much and is rolling towards its original direction.

In August, some time after Emperor Xizong fell into the water and was rescued from illness, Emperor Zhu Youxiao seemed to feel that his body was a little unable to hold on. He felt that his time might be short, and he was suffering from the fact that he had not given birth to a son to inherit the throne.

His throne, if he dies one day, then the Ming Dynasty will have to be succeeded without an emperor.

Therefore, after much thought, he recruited King Xin Zhu Youjian into the palace...

On August 22, Emperor Xizong finally failed to survive and passed away in the Palace of Qianqing. He drove west with his unfulfilled dream.

The Xin King Zhu Youjian, also known as the Chongzhen Emperor, came to the world two days later and became the new emperor of the Ming Dynasty according to the will of his brother Xizong Emperor Zhu Youxiao. He also announced to the world that the whole country was mourning.

This time, the emperor passed away and the news of the new emperor's enthronement was summoned to all places as quickly as possible. Therefore, even when Yu Xiaotian received the news, he only had time to send it to Xiong Wencan, and did not have time to do anything more.

After reaction and arrangement, the fast cavalry summoned by the imperial capital had arrived in Fuzhou and delivered the news to the Fujian officials.

Yu Xiaotian thought about it and finally decided to go to Fuzhou City in person to meet Xiong Wencan. By the way, he also took Lin Yiyang with him to Fuzhou City to meet Xiong Wencan.

When he rushed to Fuzhou City, Xiong Wencan seemed to have not recovered from the shocking news, with a sad look on his face.

Xiong Wencan was a little surprised by Yu Xiaotian's sudden visit. Although he had been very respectful to Yu Xiaotian since he came to Fuzhou, after all, he was the governor of a province and usually stayed in Fuzhou City, and Yu Xiaotian, as

A high-ranking general on one side naturally had to stay in the territory under his jurisdiction. The two of them usually only sent people to exchange news and never met directly.

This time Yu Xiaotian came without being called, which made Xiong Wencan a little surprised, so he put down what he was doing and invited Yu Xiaotian into his outer study.

After Yu Xiaotian brought Lin Yiyang into the outer study, they both saluted Xiong Wencan and spoke briefly. After the two sides exchanged greetings, Xiong Wencan ordered tea to be served and screened away all the people on the left and right.

Xiong Wencan is not a fool. He knows very well that at this time, Yu Xiaotian suddenly rushed from Weitou Bay to Fuzhou City. He must have very important things to discuss with him, so it is not easy for many people to know these things, so he will

The servants all drove out of the outer study and ordered that no one should approach the outer study.

"Xiaotian, I wonder if you didn't summon me to see me this time, so what's the important thing? There are no outsiders here, you might as well just say it!" When Xiong Wencan saw that there were no outsiders, he asked Xiaotian

Dao, he was not secretive at all, he seemed to treat Yu Xiaotian as a confidant.

However, Yu Xiaotian did not become presumptuous because of Xiong Wencan's attitude. He still pretended to be cautious and said to Xiong Wencan respectfully: "Master Qi, my subordinate has recently received some news from the capital. Originally, it was not.

Although I didn’t pay much attention to it, my subordinate Lin Zanhua noticed some things from these messages, which may be beneficial to you! This kind of thing is of little use to your subordinates, but to Master Futai, it is

I'm afraid it will be helpful!

Therefore, after much thought, I decided to come to see you hurriedly. Regardless of whether you accept it or not, it can be considered that I have done my best!"

After Xiong Wencan heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly. During this period, he was most sensitive to news from the capital. He specially arranged for people to go to the capital to collect all the news about the court and deliver the news as quickly as possible.

back into his hands.

Moreover, through Yu Xiaotian's performance some time ago, he has determined that Yu Xiaotian has a faster way to obtain information from the capital, which is even more complete than the information collected by his staff in the capital, so Yu Xiaotian behaved like this today.

Said, which immediately attracted his sufficient attention.

Yu Xiaotian looked around and saw that there was no one else around, and he no longer hesitated, because this matter was of great importance. Although on the surface, it did not have much to do with him, in reality, it still had a lot to do with him.
