Beiyang new warlord

bang~

The iron-clad gate of the yamen was slammed shut, and Jin Yiwei, who was locked outside, slapped the door in fear, but it didn't take long before it was replaced by the fists and bricks of the deflated Wenzhou people. The rider moved the table in a hurry, and blocked the door with a large tank. The eunuch Tian Cheng, who was originally aloof, lost his prestige just now, and turned his hands behind his back like an ant on a hot fire.

Suddenly, the eunuch saw the sneer on Zhang Pu's handcuffed face again, and he suddenly became mournful. He rushed over and hugged Zhang Pu's thigh.

"Zhang Xianggong, I beg you to save our family's life! Our family is also a scholar of Fenggao University. I beg you to order from Wang Shangshu, please spare my life!"

"Eunuch, let go first!"

With the old god present, Zhang Pu shook the iron chain on his wrist.

For example, according to the plot in the TV series, the loyal minister who was wronged and arrested went out helplessly to persuade the people who resisted him to calm down.

First of all, Zhang Pu is not a loyal minister, he is a politician, a distant branch of Wang Qia, Minister of the Household Department, when the Red Forging Workshop committed suicide, he knew that a direct conflict with the Dukes of Dongdong and Lin was inevitable! Naturally, Zhang Pu would not Waiting for death! These Wenzhou businessmen in front of him are the ones he sent to stir up!

However, it is ironic that Fushe was a firm supporter of Donglin back then, and the two sides worked together like a family to resist the eunuchs. In order to fight against Wei Zhongxian, a heroic Yangzhou civil uprising broke out, but this time, they jointly advocated Cheng Zhu Lixue's Donglin Fushe was in conflict with each other. Donglin, who was born as a big landlord, and the Fushe, who was born as a petty bourgeoisie who was attached to the feudal landlord bureaucracy, still stood on the opposite side after all.

Freed from the shackles, under Tian Cheng's hopeful eyes, Zhang Pu climbed up the wall Shi Shiran, but looking at the crowd that suddenly quieted down, Zhang Pu suddenly raised his fist in anger.

"Everyone! Why did you lose so badly this year? It's not the bullshit agreement signed by the lords of the court and China and Mao Manzi. Our southern merchants have to pay [-]% of the silver to their northern merchants! Let us increase our capital, and we can't sell those northern barbarians!"

"Everyone suffered heavy losses. Not only did the imperial court ignore it, but they also chased after the big guys for money. This official burned the account books, and the court's princes will take this official, and someone else will continue to plunder the people!"

"It's not a pity for me to die! But I can't watch the treacherous officials in the court abuse the people for their own self-interest! I'm willing to risk the death of the whole family, but I also want to go to the capital to avenge the people's grievances to the emperor!"

One person at a time, in Tian Cheng's dazed eyes, Zhang Pu jumped over from the courtyard wall, and then, the rioting crowd outside let out loud cheers, and rushed out surrounded by dense footsteps After going out, he was stunned for a few seconds, Tian Cheng's face darkened suddenly, and he slapped his forehead sadly.

"What a disaster, what a disaster!"

Donglin Fushe has cooperated closely for more than half a century, but now, the biggest conflict between the two political factions erupted like a volcano along with the huge economic crisis affecting the Nanming Metropolitan Empire!

7 Chapter Twenty

In history, as a ruined scholar, he had such a deep influence and so much intervention in the imperial court. He even had the rudiments of an early opposition party leader. Zhang Pu dare not say that he will never be the last, but it is absolutely unprecedented.

This time, his terrifying influence is undoubtedly revealed. First of all, Wenzhou City, such a huge city, the group of businessmen who just lost their pants were able to pour their hearts out for him as the chief official, and even killed more than [-] Jinyiweis. This forced the eunuch who passed the decree to hide in the government office and dare not come out.

However, this is only the beginning.

After all, due to the limitation and the shackles of this era, even later generations can have 10,000+ people follow you to petition on the train. The densely packed Wenzhou city residents waved goodbye to Zhang Pu at Muliu Village outside Wenzhou city.

"Mr. Renxue, take care during this trip!"

Next to Zhang Pu, there are more than a dozen business travel shopkeepers with about dozens of people, and Fushe scholars, surrounded by Zhang Pu, and these people also bid farewell to each other.

"Everyone, rest assured that we will protect Mr. Renxue safe and sound! Everyone, please go back!"

"Please!"

On a bright autumn day, hundreds of horses raised their hooves, and Zhang Pu raised his whip while 10 people watched, and marched northward.

In other dynasties, people like Zhang Pu would definitely be killed, because his influence is too strong. To what extent is he popular? Wenzhou is more than 800 kilometers away from Nanjing, and every time he passes through a county, there are a large number of citizens He came here to pick up the wind and wash away the dust, and he was not even limited to Nanming. When he arrived outside the West Lake in Hangzhou at the end of October, there were as many as two dozen big merchants setting up a banquet here by the West Lake to welcome Zhang Pu. It's a crime of exhaustion, but in fact it's all about showing off its muscles and demonstrating against the leader of Donglin who is in power in Ying Tianzhong.

His approach to Nanjing step by step has indeed brought great political pressure to the top members of the Donglin Party.

Nanjing Forbidden Palace, Hall of Martial Arts, and official offices.

With a crash, the imperial kiln blue and white flowers that could sell for hundreds of taels were ruthlessly thrown to the ground. Shangshu Wang of the Ministry of Rites' old wrinkled face was distorted. The wrinkles were like disgusting earthworms, and his voice was hoarse. , he roared furiously.

"It's a rebellion!!! Zhang Pu's death is not a pity!"

The Red Refining Workshop Wang Zhixing's family who lost the bottom line are his distant relatives, and more importantly, the Red Refining Workshop is the pocketbook of the entire Jiangzuo Wang family. Don't look at all the leaders of Donglin who are ashamed to mention yellow and white things. They really moved their money bags, and they really played with you, Wang Qia handed the money bag to Zhang Pu, and followed to make a fortune, but he didn't want to be poked into a hole, and even the copper coins in the bag were leaked, Wang Qia The resentment towards Zhang Pu can be imagined, it is simply hatred.

After roaring to express his attitude, he vented his anger to Liu Zongzhou, who was in charge of the military department, with a gloomy face.

"Zhang thief is so arrogant and domineering, is the Ministry of War just sitting and watching?"

Gao Hongtu, Jiang Riguang, Qian Qianyi and others also cast their gazes over. Zhang Pu, the rebellious junior, was slapping everyone in the face, and they were also full of anger.

However, in the Donglin Party, Liu Zongzhou, a relatively stable academician with a stable face, took out a yellow leather memorial from his sleeve and threw it on the table.

"Look for yourself! An excerpt from the Bachelor of History!"

The first one snatched Shi Kefa's copybook into his hand, and hastily flipped through two pages. Wang Qia once threw the copybook back and cursed angrily.

"Disregard the overall situation! Don't be a minister! Forget all the things!"

Then he also picked up the booklet, and after two glances, Qian Qianyi's brows also raised, but he shook his head heavily in distress.

Zhang Pu's influence is not unique today, but after the coup in Donglin, he didn't explode when the loot was unevenly distributed, but it was not without reason that he confronted the seniors of Donglin with great fanfare in this cut-off eye.

Just like the famous saying of Mao Zedong in later generations: Power grows out of the barrel of a gun!

How powerful was the Yangzhou citizen movement during the reign of Tianqi?But in the end, as the leaders Zhou Shunchang, Yan Peiwei and other five people were still arrested by the eunuchs and murdered in Jinyiwei Prison. Wei Zhongxian was not overthrown, but was killed by him. If it wasn't for Tianqi's death, Emperor Chongzhen alienated Wei Zhongxian, fearing that the Donglin Party would still take him as a great eunuch.

Why?No soldiers in hand!

Even if there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, they can't keep up with the tens of thousands of mediocre soldiers. If during the Donglin coup, Zhang Pu dared to grin his teeth like this, and put a big rebel hat over him, once the army arrived, he would be finished! At that time To make trouble is to seek death.

But now, the [-] army is under the control of Shi Kefa, the governor of Jiujiang, who is inclined to restore the society. His position is still at the forefront of resisting Liu Zongmin's army. The urgent has been sent to the capital, the Jiujiang army is short of pay, and there are signs of instability!

It is said that he is reporting the military situation, but the leader of Donglin is not a human being, and the real instability is probably Shi Kefa himself! He is here to open up Zhang Pu!If you dare to move, I will dare to be unstable!

Shi Kefa's threat, the big bosses of Donglin couldn't ignore it, because they really didn't dare to gamble with their wealth and life on Shi Kefa's overall view. Once they killed Zhang Pu, Shi Kefa would really put down hundreds of thousands of Dashun troops After crossing Poyang Lake, everyone will finish playing together!

The excerpts were passed on one by one, but there was a dead silence in the Hall of Martial Arts. After a long time, Wang Qi, who was still unwilling, asked gloomyly.

"Just let this little bastard come to Nanjing swaggeringly?"

"So what if I don't let go?"

Sighing heavily, Gao Hongtu's same old face immediately showed a gloomy look, and he said in a gloomy voice, "But this year, those lowly merchants suffered heavy losses, killing more than a dozen families and hundreds of people. The military salary and public bank have not been raised yet, it is the truth! Since Zhang Pu dares to come, let's go to court. When the time comes, in front of all civil and military officials and scholars in the world, the old man wants to see how eloquent he is. Black is white!"

"That's exactly what it should be! When the time comes, Tangtang will punish him, and he will have no room to resist! Now it's just right when the troubles get big, and then we'll see how those little bastards from the Fushe end up!"

With the same gloom on his face, Jiang Riguang also nodded in agreement, but after a while, he turned his eyes on Qian Qianyi worriedly.

"However, the lifeline is in the hands of Shi Ni. It is not a long-term solution. On the Jiangbei side, Qian Weng needs to contact more. Isn't she keen on money and silk? The kiln master of Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln and the weavers of Jiangning Weaving can give He! Huguang can also split with the Northern Dynasty, as long as the Xuzhou Legion is willing to take action and join hands with our Dynasty to destroy the intruders, no matter how big the request is, we can agree to it."

"It's even possible to descend to the emperor and become a king, and surrender to the north!"

"Everything is for the overall situation!"

big picture?I'm afraid it's the overall situation governed by the leader of the Donglin Party himself!These remarks can be described as extremely traitorous, even the emperor Zhu Yousong was sold, but Jiang Riguang's remarks attracted the nods of the cabinet leaders who were full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and Qian Qianyi who was involved was even more upset. Live on the head.

"This old man will focus on doing it. A few days ago, Beidi went to Mr. Gu's place very frequently! This old man will use Mr. Gu to persuade me!"
