Chapter six hundred and ninety fourth things are big
Zhang Xiaoqi was annoyed by Guo Zhiqi's refusal to come forward. Guo Zhiqi was annoyed by Zhang Xiaoqi's stubbornness and did not matter priorities and caused chaos in the court. In this way, the two of them were not speculating for a long time and could not talk about the same thing.
After leaving Guo’s mansion, Ma Anmin, Wang Wanda, Zhou Shengmin and others were all worried. Most of the officials who followed him had already calmed their fighting spirit and refused to come forward. What else would they do to fight for? The left and right Shaowu was also the legitimate brother of His Highness the Superintendent. They also caused trouble for the emperor who hid in Myanmar. You must know that they are now a person who is a Zhou Shixiang and a Zhou Shixiang. If it were not a Zhou Shixiang, don’t say that they could be ranked above the court. If they were not a Qing army, it would be that their ancestors would burn incense. Logically, these people must have thought about the benefits of Zhou Shixiang, but they just didn’t. This is really contrary to common sense. Just to be loyal and righteous, I’m afraid that it cannot be explained.
In fact, the reason is very simple. People say that they are full and warm to think about lust. Desire. These people are full and warm to make trouble, as if they don’t make trouble, they cannot prove their existence. These people are not making a fuss without purpose. They are really worried that after the Shao case was rehabilitated, the King of Tang and the Emperor parting ways, but not many of them are involved in this matter. The reason is that this fuss can bring some real benefits to their official hats.
In other words, these people followed Zhang Xiaoqi to make trouble, just to make the news, so as to force Zhou Shi to hand over some power, so that their officials could be made famous and authentic, so that they would like to support their son-in-law to rehabilitate their father-in-law, and everyone would be happy. For example, this official is really useless, and he can't eat meat, and it's a pity to lose it, and it's really boring to do it.
All of you are all people with great ambitions. This daily tuition and salary on time is not what they want. It is better to read books of sages, be a scholar, and give advice on the country.
Zhang Xiaoqi was also worried. It should be noted that if Guo Zhiqi, the assistant, led all officials to fight against the Zhou party, and firmly opposed the rehabilitation of Shaowu, the regent of the country, could not be unmoved, and Zhou Shixiang could not not soften. But now Guo Zhiqi refused to come forward. Although there were still people who were willing to fight with him, the number of people would inevitably decrease greatly. In this way, the influence would be greatly weakened and it might eventually become invisible, which would be very unfavorable to the current situation.
Zhang Xiaoqi was a little anxious. Even Chengbi told him that he would send someone over, but he was reluctant to see him, but he didn't know if Ji Fu changed his mind. Zhou Shengmin and Wang Wanda were the hard-core Yongli Sect. When they saw Zhang Xiaoqi frowning, they thought of Guo Zhiqi's attitude as a great minister of the Yongli Dynasty, and they were all a little dejected.
Just when he was despair, Zhang Xiaoqi suddenly felt energetic and looked forward with great anticipation. Everyone looked at it, but it was Cheng Bangjun, the former head of the Ministry of War. He came to Guangzhou on behalf of the Yongli court last year, but for some reason he offended Zhou Shixiang. The King of Tang had no choice but to use it after the regent of the country. It was still Lian Chengbi who said a few words to his superiors for the country, and then he was able to take up the position of military department.
There was another person who came with Cheng Bangjun, but Qin Rong, the former deputy envoy of Guangdong's criminal senator. Qin Rong, like Cheng Bangjun, had offended Zhou Shixiang, but it might have offended Zhou Shixiang too ruthlessly. Cheng Bangjun was revived, but he did not. Now, he was helping Lianchengbi to help him come up with advice, waiting for one day to be revived.
After Qin Rong and Cheng Bangjun came, they held tribute to everyone one by one, and then whispered a few words to Zhang Xiaoqi. After hearing this, Zhang Xiaoqi laughed a long time, sweeping away the previous depressedness, and feeling the sense of stability. Zhou Shengmin, Guo Tianxu and the others were all confused and looked at each other, not knowing what Qin Rong and the others said to Zhang Xiaoqi, which made him instantly change his personality.
"This is a mountain of Tai, and his face is not changed. He is worthy of the one who once criticized the Five Tigers!"
Wang Wandayue admired Zhang Xiao and felt a little ashamed. He felt that if he was Zhang Xiaoqi, he would never have been as calm as he did.
Zhou Shengmin glanced at the gate of Guo’s mansion and said to Zhang Xiaoqi: “Mr. Zhang, you can still laugh. Oh, you shouldn’t have spoken to the Master of Ge just now. Now the Master of Ge’s road is completely cut off. I really can’t imagine any way to save it.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoqi stared at Zhou Shengmin and said, "Did Lord Zhou think I would watch the case overturned, and I was disheartened?"
"Don't force it anymore. Your Highness is not moved by your memorials, and Master Guo is unwilling to come forward to preside over the presidency. The party in the court is powerful. Now we are willing to kill the thief and are powerless to turn the world back."
Guo Tianxu was a little pessimistic. He had a passionate relationship, but after hitting a wall everywhere, he was inevitably powerless. In fact, Mr. Guo really had no disgust towards Zhou Shixiang, but he supported him very much. However, before he retired, he was the head of the Ministry of Rites of the Chongzhen Dynasty, and he talked about rituals in everything. The Shaowu rebellion case was appointed by the Emperor Yongli, and involved the dispute between Tang Gui, which also affected the current Guangdong-Guangdong-Guangdong regime and the Yongli court hiding in Myanmar. Therefore, Mr. Guo stood on Zhang Xiaoqi's side from what he believed in the overall situation, thinking that Shaowu could not be reversed, so as not to fight again.
"I'm not forcing myself, but I'm sure I'm sure of winning." Zhang Xiaoqi's face showed a very confident expression. Qin Rong and Cheng Bangjun also smiled but said nothing.
Ma Anmin couldn't believe it and said, "Do you have a chance to do it?"
Wang Wanda was excited and said strikingly: "Honor Zhang has any other plan, please tell us quickly."
Zhang Xiaoqi nodded, glanced at the doorman, and lowered his voice: "If I was not wrong, Mr. Guo must have been threatened by Zhou Shixiang. He, Mr. Zhou, thought Mr. Guo, stood by and watched, and we would never cause any more storms... Humph, but he thought it was good, but he should not forget how I, Zhang Xiaoqi, scolded Wuhu back then!"
The fact that he scolded the Five Tigers was the most proud thing in Zhang Xiaoqi's life. He was always a halal and did not fear power. In the fourth year of Yongli, he fled to Wuzhou with the emperor and discussed with the court officials to eliminate the Five Tigers of the current dynasty. The so-called Five Tigers refer to the five ministers who depended on Li Yuanyin, the son of Dongxun Li Chengdong, the chief censor Yuan Pengnian, the young secretary Liu Xiangke, and the chief censor Ding Shikui, Jinbao and Meng Zheng. Later, for impeaching the Five Tigers for his contribution, Zhang Xiaoqi was promoted to the right assistant censor by Emperor Yongli, the governor Gao, Lei, Lian and Qiong.
Qin Rong and Cheng Bangjun brought Zhang Xiaoqi a good idea that came to mind for the help of Lord Lianchengbi, which was to mobilize the gentry, students and the people to unanimously oppose Shaowu's reversal. In this way, there were oppositions in the court and oppositions among the people. King Tang and Zhou Shixiang could not take the blame for the world and insist on rehabilitating Shaowu despite public opinion.
"Gentlemen's student?" Ma Anmin was confused. Where did the gentry students come from in Guangzhou?
Zhang Xiaoqi laughed: "It seems that Ma Gong hasn't been outside the city these days, and he doesn't know the sufferings of the people."
Guangzhou was slaughtered by the Qing army. At that time, all the Ming Dynasty officials and gentry in the city were killed. Later, in order to enrich Guangzhou City, Shang Kexi ordered a group of gentry people from all over the country to Guangzhou. In addition to the families of officials who came with the Qing army, the new gentry class in Guangzhou City was formed. Unfortunately, the Taiping Army slaughtered Guangzhou overnight. The gentry loyal to the Qing Dynasty encountered difficulties again in a blink of an eye. The people in the city were mostly those who followed the Taiping Army. These people were already closely tied to the Taiping Army and were not the same as the Yongli officials in Guangzhou later.
Ma Anmin was very sure that there were not many gentry students in the city, and even if there were, they would not have had a fight with Zhou Shi, but Zhang Xiaoqi was full of confidence and said that there must be. Ma Anmin and others were very confused. After Qin Rong's prompt, they suddenly realized.
To be precise, it was not that there were gentry students in Guangzhou, but that there were a group of gentry students outside Guangzhou who were very dissatisfied with the Taiping Army and Zhou Shixiang. Almost all of them were old gentry whose interests were violated because of the "building villages and building villages" movement in their hometowns, and they were also landlords and tyrants who were often mentioned by Zhou Shixiang. Those students participated in the Guangdong Provincial Examination of the Taiping Army, but after they passed the imperial examination, the Taiping Army not only did not give them official positions, but instead allowed them to study again in the school.
There were four or five hundred people in this group. They were originally honest, but they just ran to the government to stage a drama of "Who dares to sue me in the hall?" and became honest. But since they heard that His Highness the King of the Ming Dynasty was in charge of the country in Guangzhou, there was a new court of the Ming Dynasty in Guangzhou. The thief scholars who killed Taiping Army could not cover the queen with their hands. They gathered from Guangzhou from all directions like chicken blood, hoping to sue the emperor and take back everything they had lost from the Taiping Army.
Zhou Shixiang also has a very appropriate title for these people, that is, "Returning Homes Group". For these landlords and gentry who want to continue fishing and meat in the countryside, they are doing things that are open to the countryside without paying grain but paying grain in Qing Dynasty. Zhou Shixiang's opinions to various places are very clear and ignore them and let them die. However, if there are secret rebellions and incitement to the countryside to cause chaos, they must be suppressed. The same is true for those scholars who refuse to accept new studies. If you cannot learn a new study, you will not be allowed to do this official. If you return to your hometown with the fame of the Juren, the government will still exempt you from taxes according to the treatment of the Juren in the previous dynasty, and give you a certain status in the countryside, but if you want to take the seal and look at things, you will not even think about it.
The old gentry and the gentry students who refused to learn the new gentry had a few times in Guangzhou City. The Guangzhou magistrate Jiang Qingzhi was scolded by Zhou Shixiang several times for this. He gritted his teeth and simply drove all of them out of the city to prevent them from entering the city. He thought that these people had been outside the city for a long time, and they always woke up and lost patience to go back obediently. Unexpectedly, these people suddenly gathered together. Under the guidance of the imperial officials, the crowd ran to the Jianguo Palace in anger and blocked the door and caused trouble. He claimed that the Tang Jianguo would not leave the memorial of Emperor Shaowu, but he would not leave. He also asked the Tang Jianguo to punish the "flattery villain" mentioned above. The "flattery villain" mentioned above must refer to Ding Zhixiang, but anyone with discerning eyes knew that these four words were more suitable for Zhou Shixiang.
Things are getting big. (To be continued.)8
