Domineering Daming

Fan Jingwen came here to ask for advice under Ye Xianggao's order, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Brother Wang, what can we do?"

Wang Wenyan glanced at him, his face was full of bruises, and he couldn't see the previous "chivalry", and the word "righteousness" still started in his mouth, and he said carefully: "First of all, we can't force it, our new emperor is not a man who is hard In the past, none of the previous methods worked. The first step is to find a way to stop the government affairs of the six ministries, without saying anything, and to do it quietly. The second step is to find some famous Confucian scholars to write articles, explaining in detail the abolition of the government. The harm of the procuratorate, especially when it comes to the ancestral system, should be sincere and not attack anyone, especially the emperor. The third step is to invite some elders to the palace to meet the concubine. They don't say anything, just visit and gossip Some homely..."

Fan Jingwen admired Wang Wenyan's words in his heart. Wang Wenyan's words can be summed up in nine words "to show strength, to reason, to discuss human feelings". Is there any difficulty in the world that these nine words can't solve?

This is the right trip!

Fan Jingwen and Wang Wenyan approached each other, discussed the details in a low voice, and then left the prison.

Next to the post station outside the capital, willow branches are fluttering.

Miao Changqi looked at Li Yingsheng in front of him, with a worried expression and reluctance in his eyes.

Li Yingsheng is the censor of Fujian Province. Once the imperial court abolished the department, he didn't want to join the governor's office, nor did he want to stay in the turbulent capital, so he resigned and returned to his hometown today.

Miao Changqi is also a veteran of Donglin, and has a wide range of friends. Every time Donglin people leave Beijing sadly, he comes to see them off, and no one falls behind.

Li Yingsheng was silent for a while, and sighed: "Brother Miao, the current emperor is self-willed and does not listen to loyal advice, so that treacherous and sycophants run rampant and chaos reigns. It is really unprecedented. Nowadays, it is difficult to be a gentleman, and there is no place to stand. In the future."

Miao Changqi also sighed softly, and said: "Brother Li, let's go. Now that the gentlemen are gathered in the capital, no matter how arrogant the eunuchs are, they will never be the same again. The emperor is young, and he will eventually grow up. The day is not far away."

Li Yingsheng also experienced the party struggle between Wanli and Tianqi. He had a premonition that the party struggle would be more intense in the future. Unexpected, brother Miao, take care!"

Miao Changqi could only sigh again, and watched Li Yingsheng go away with his arms folded.

Li Yingsheng's carriage left slowly, and behind Miao Changqi he slowly approached a young man who looked like a petty official, and said, "My lord, now is the moment of great importance, why don't you keep Master Li?"

Miao Changqi shook his head, looked at the carriage that was drifting away, and sighed: "This time, if I don't succeed, I will have to resign and return home."

The young man's expression turned serious. He could tell from Miao Changqi's words that the Donglin Party was going to put all their eggs in one basket this time.

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye, and there was nothing to see in the capital. There were crowds of people on the street, and they came and went like weaving, and they didn't feel the turmoil in the officialdom at all.

In the household department, Fu Changzong handled government affairs for a day, packed up his things, and prepared to return home.

As soon as he was about to leave, his heart moved, and he said to the porter outside: "Has the memorial book of Zhejiang Zuo's participation in politics arrived?"

Zhu Xu's next step is to clean up the official circles in Zhejiang and Jiangxi, so Fu Changzong is also very concerned.

The concierge turned around and came in, saying: "My lord, Huang Langzhong asked for sick leave not long ago, the performance should be in his classroom, the classroom is locked, it will take a few days."

Fu Changzong frowned, looked at the concierge and said, "How many days? How many days has he asked for leave?"

The concierge bowed there and said, "Return to your lord, three days."

It is common for officials to ask for leave, Fu Changzong is not surprised, he can't pick the lock, he can only wait, and while stepping over the threshold, he said: "Send the rest of the memorials to Li Langzhong, and let him send them to me tomorrow." this."

The concierge quickly turned around and took a step after Fu Changzong, saying: "My lord, Mr. Li has also asked for three days' leave."

Fu Changzong didn't think too much, he opened his mouth and said, "Then send it to Han Langzhong."

The concierge couldn't hold back this time, looked around, approached and said in a low voice, "My lord, now more than 20 people in the entire household department have asked for leave, and Langzhong Han has also asked for leave."

Fu Changzong paused, finally realized something was wrong, and said with a serious face, "What's going on?"

The concierge looked around again, hid behind the pillars, and said nervously to Fu Changzong: "My lord, it's not just our household department, there are more than 100 officials, large and small, who have asked for leave, and the number is still increasing."

Fu Changzong's face darkened, and he finally realized that the matter was serious.

This is not an occasional leave, it is planned by someone behind the scenes, who can have such ability, except for Zhu Xu, only Donglin Party can do it in Man Daming, Wei Zhongxian seems to be powerful, but he can't do it either.

He looked at the concierge and said with a sullen face, "How long has it been?"

The concierge looked a little nervous. He has no rank and is not qualified to ask for leave. He bowed cautiously and said: "It's just today. Not long ago, less than half an hour, the people who asked for leave were all lined up at the servant's side." There's a long line."

Fu Changzong frowned, his expression changed, and he was solemn.

Such a large-scale "leave for leave" of the Donglin Party is more terrifying than the dismissal of hundreds of officials. Hundreds of people ask for leave, which is enough to paralyze the government affairs of the six ministries.

The most important thing is that this household department was cleaned up by him, half an hour had passed since the incident happened, and he actually found out about it "accidentally"!

Fu Changzong glanced at the concierge, didn't say much, turned around and walked out of the household department quickly, and was about to go to the palace in a carriage.

At the same time, Zhou Yingqiu from the Ministry of Officials, Xu Dahua from the Ministry of Industry, Zhang Woxu from the Ministry of Rites, and even Shen Yongmao from the Ministry of War were in a hurry, and rushed out of their respective yamen to the palace.

The Donglin Party is almost everywhere, with a complicated network of relationships. Such a big move really shocked them.

Just when several major ministers were in a hurry to enter the palace, an article discussing the matter was circulated among the major academies, literary clubs, and scholars in the capital.

This was written by Zou Qingshan, the son of Zou Yuanbiao. He is also a great writer, with a strong pen and a body of writing, and he has a huge influence in the literary world.

The most important thing is that his identity is also very special. His father, Zou Yuanbiao, is the elder of Donglin. Together with Gu Xiancheng and Zhao Nanxing, he is known as the "Three Gentlemen of Donglin" and has a special status in the Donglin Party.

His articles were not full of curses, nor were his words violent. They were all about the facts, saying that "the Metropolitan Procuratorate cannot be abolished, and the ancestral system cannot be abolished."

The article was well-founded, and the words were plain, and it was very popular with scholars. This matter spread rapidly, and a majestic voice of criticism rolled in the capital.

Inside the Hall of Renshou, Zhou Jiamo, who is in his 80s, sat tremblingly under the head of Concubine Liu, chatting and laughing with Concubine Liu, talking about old things, as if he was about to die and came to say goodbye.

Concubine Liu is a very optimistic person, and Zhou Jiamo sighed after talking for a while.

They are all in their 80s, and no one knows what will happen tomorrow. The more such homely chats, the more emotional they can be.

This time, the Donglin Party did not aggressively encircle the palace, nor did they launch a sky-high offensive. In the ordinary, majestic pressure poured into the palace.

Chapter 395

In front of the imperial study room, Zhu Xu looked at the blue sky outside the palace with his hands behind his back.

Wei Zhongxian was dressed in a python suit, bowed his head respectfully, and not far away were Cao Bianjiao, Cao Huachun and others.

Zhu Xu's gaze was far away, and his mind was also wandering. After a long time, he said leisurely: "Wei Zhongxian, tell me, the snow in Liaodong should have almost melted, right?"

Wei Zhongxian looked up and looked outside, then lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, it's almost April, it's time to melt."

Recently, Wei Zhongxian has been very cautious, and he has become more and more cautious. He knows that Zhu Xu is planning a big event, and he dare not cause chaos to cause Zhu Xu's displeasure.

Zhu Xu took a deep breath and said with deep eyes: "Yes, the snow has melted, it's time to hunt..."

Erbeile Amin from Liaodong is planning to get rid of Huang Taiji, but Huang Taiji is not so easy to deal with.

Huang Taiji has been quiet among the top four Baylors for more than ten years, and he knows how to keep a low profile and bear his edge.

If it weren't for this, it wouldn't be his turn to be the Khan of Hou Jin. In history, after he came to power, how could there be the so-called four major Baylors who took turns governing?Amin's final fate was to be imprisoned to death.

Such a person, with Amin's kind of domineering and domineering person who has everything written on his face, can he be plotted against him?

"I'm afraid Huang Taiji will take this opportunity to get rid of Amin and completely control Houjin." Zhu Xu thought to himself.
