Chapter 66 Letter from the Capital
The reason why Zhu Youxiao had to return to Beijing was very simple, because the Eunuch Wei in Beijing had a fight with the Donglin Party members, and the incident was a big deal. Eunuch Wei not only arrested some people from the Donglin Party, but also killed them, including Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, Wei Dazhong, Zhou Chaorui, Yuan Huazhong, Gu Dazhang and others.
Of course, Eunuch Wei ordered people from the East Factory to arrest him. As for the Jinyiwei, he still couldn't get involved, so although he had ordered not to tell Zhu Youxiao this news, it was obvious that he had not yet achieved the goal of covering the sky with one hand.
Although Zhu Youxiao had a low level of education and was not very responsible on weekdays, he also knew the seriousness of this matter. When he was the emperor, the Ming Dynasty was a time when the party and government were fierce, and the parties in the court at that time were varied.
As we all know, Chinese people like to keep warm and prefer to use regions to divide boundaries. For example, when an official arrives in the capital, he is not familiar with the place, the first thing he needs to do is to find fellow villagers to visit the wharf. Shanxi looks for Shanxi, and Zhejiang looks for Zhejiang. After finding it, everyone sees it. Hey, everyone is all fellow villagers, so they have to take care of each other in the future, so the party comes like this.
The parties in the late Ming Dynasty were roughly divided into Qi, Chu, Zhejiang and Donglin Party. Among these parties, Qi, Chu and Zhejiang are all parties of pure regional nature, so their power is relatively weak, while the Donglin Party is more awesome. This party that claims to represent the interests of the people is shouting all day long to establish a mind for the world, establish a life for the people, inherit the unique knowledge for the past sages, and bring peace to the ages. They used these slogans to fool a group of scholars.
Of course, slogans are slogans after all. In addition to acting as spokespersons and protective umbrellas for the landlord class in the Jiangnan region, the Donglin Party members are best at fighting against people other than their own parties. They fight against the sky and earth, and of course they cannot lack the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang. The conflicts between the two sides are becoming more and more intense, such as fighting for the foundation of the country, demon book cases, and attack cases. As long as there is a chance, both sides will attack each other. Since the tenth year of Wanli, the two sides have started to make trouble, which is a long history.
Because the Donglin Party members were supported by the landlord class in the Jiangnan area, they had a strong combat effectiveness and forced the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang to unite to fight with them. Originally, the two sides fought for decades and no one could do anything to each other. However, due to a person appearing, the entire army of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang were wiped out, and this person was our nine thousand-year-old Eunuch Wei.
After defeating the three parties, Wei Zhongxian finally became the eunuch in charge of the Sili Supervisor, which he had always dreamed of. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was powerful in the court. However, it was at this time that he found that he had another enemy, the Donglin Party, the former ally of the Donglin Party, because after defeating other parties, the Donglin Party had become very powerful. It can be said that most of the entire court was theirs, which seriously affected our prestige at nine thousand years old. The Donglin Party members also found that after defeating the three parties of Qi, Chu, and Zhejiang, the only person in the entire court who could be their opponent was this former ally of Eunuch Wei, so both sides naturally started to fight.
The consequence of the two sides' turn against each other was that Mars hit the Earth. As a gangster, Eunuch Wei was well aware of the truth of starting to attack first. As soon as he became ruthless, he instructed a man named Xu Xianchun to take action and arrest Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, Wei Dazhong, Zhou Chaorui, Yuan Huazhong, Gu Dazhang and others.
Xu Xianchun is not a good guy. He was a Jinshi and was promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei. He was cruel. His favorite thing was to kill the prisoner and pick out his throat as a certificate or a commemoration. So after catching Yang Lian and six others, this guy killed all these people.
It hurt this time, and the Donglin Party was not so easy to mess with, so the whole court became excited. Then our Eunuch Wei started to arrest people again, arresting Gao Panlong, Li Yingsheng, Huang Zunsu, Zhou Zongjian, Liao Changqi, Zhou Qiyuan, Zhou Shunchang and others, and wanted to attack them. Something happened during this period. Gao Panlong committed suicide by jumping into the water before the arresting person arrived.
As the saying goes, everything is good and stays on the front line to meet again in the future. Eunuch Wei is really angry. The Donglin Party members are angry. They contacted Sun Chengzong, who was the governor of Liaodong at the time, hoping that Sun Chengzong could make the decision for them. To be honest, Sun Chengzong is not simple. This man is a rare talent in this era, and he is deeply trusted by Zhu Youxiao and has a heavy army. Once such a person shouts a slogan of clearing the king and taking his army to attack the capital, no matter how awesome Eunuch Wei is, he will immediately become a ghost under the sword.
Eunuch Wei, who had made a mess, was finally panicked and immediately sent someone to deliver a letter to Zhu Youxiao, asking him to return to the capital to take charge of the overall situation.
Zhu Youxiao, who received a letter from the capital, pondered for a long time, recruited Yang Feng and told him the whole story. Finally, Zhu Youxiao smiled bitterly and said, "I originally wanted to let Wei Zhongxian restrain the Donglin Party, but I never thought that this guy had made a fuss. I was not in the capital and killed Yang Lian and his group of people. How could these Donglin Party members give up? I heard that many Donglin Party members were planning to hold a market strike and make a big fuss. I have to go back to appease these people."
Yang Feng curled his lips and said nothing. In his opinion, the Donglin Party members and Eunuch Wei are actually the same guy. The only difference is that Eunuch Wei is just greedy, while the Donglin Party members mobilize everyone to be greedy. Moreover, the better thing about Eunuch Wei is that although he makes money in his pocket, he can at least do things while embezzling, but the Donglin Party members are different. They not only do not do things, but also specifically attack those who do things. Such behavior is too hateful. It can be said that the Donglin Party members can be destructive so quickly in history!
Seeing that Yang Feng was not speaking, Zhu Youxiao said again: "Yang Feng, although I have known you for less than a month, I know you are a talented person, so I plan to transfer you to the capital to serve. I wonder what you think?"
"What? No, no!" Yang Feng's head shook like a rattle. "Your Majesty, I am born in the countryside and have always been used to being free and free. This place in the capital is not suitable for me. You should let me live a few years of free and comfortable life here. After all, I am also loyal to the country when I farm and train you here."
"you……"
Seeing that Yang Feng refused to agree, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but sigh. After hearing these days' contacts and listening to what Yang Feng said about history and geography classes, Zhu Youxiao believed that Yang Feng was a talented person. If such a person was willing to go to Beijing to assist him, it would definitely be his own blessing. Unfortunately, Yang Feng was unwilling to go to Beijing, and he could not force others to tie him up, so he had to shake his head helplessly and give up.
