Hong Chengchou stared at the words on the white silk, gritted his teeth, his facial features were twisted, and his anger was soaring to the sky... Fang Dayou was already trembling with fear, trembling all over, and almost knelt down to plead guilty.
Unexpectedly, Hong Chengchou suddenly burst into laughter, threw Bai Ling on the ground, and said loudly: "Small means can never be brought to the fore. I serve the sage king and lord, bring peace to the world, and bring peace to the people. After success, I retired, and I am old in the woods.
That’s my wish!”
These few words of Hong Chengchou were immediately praised by everyone present, saying that Mr. Hong was a pillar of the country, with a far-reaching reputation, the style of an ancient gentleman, and a role model for famous ministers in the world.
Xiaoxiao, who is afraid of Master Hong and takes advantage of the military power, can only resort to some small tricks that make people laugh, which are not worth mentioning.
Hong Chengchou also had a smile on his face and encouraged everyone to perform their duties faithfully for the Qing Dynasty. Your Majesty will definitely treat you well.
On the surface, everyone is happy and says they don't care, but the words "disregarding relatives, betraying relatives and leaving" linger in their hearts like a curse, and they won't go away for a long time.
Scholar-officials still pay attention to dignity. For example, when Prime Minister Zhuge gave a set of women's clothes, it was already a top-notch operation.
Hai Rui just said that people in the world have not been loyal to His Majesty for a long time, so he broke Jiajing's defense.
The ultimate curse of "disowning all relatives and betraying all relatives" has reached a high point that is difficult to reach... If it is an ordinary person, it may not be a big deal if he suffers this kind of curse.
But Hong Chengchou can't do it. He is now a traitor and a traitor. There are so many flags on the bow of the ship to show his identity. That is betrayal of the country and seeking glory!
I'm talking about you, who disowns your relatives and betrays your relatives!
This means that Old Thief Hong is thick-skinned and has a deep city, so he can withstand it. Otherwise, if it were an ordinary person, he would probably vomit three liters of blood and fall to the ground.
But precisely because he cursed so loudly and heartily, it was destined to be widely spread and even known to everyone. By then, Hong Chengchou would really stink.
…
"Grand nephew, you are scolding me so loudly, I feel relieved to see you, but I am a little worried. It still cannot change the overall situation, and the old thief Hong will still go south." Uncle Ye Tinglan said worriedly.
Zhu Yiyuan also nodded, "Uncle, and Mr. Yan, just a few curses can't solve the problem. In fact, I have another way, but I don't know if it's convenient to say it."
Yan Ermei immediately said: "Master Zhu, this thief Hong Chengchou not only betrayed the country and surrendered to the enemy, but also went south under orders to kill the anti-Qing righteous people. He is no longer a human being. We can use any strategy to deal with him. Don't worry, this matter is my responsibility
on the head."
Zhu Yiyuan waved his hands hurriedly, "Mr. Yan, I'm not afraid, it's just that this method is a bit immoral... We scolded Hong Chengchou. This old thief may not care, but his parents are still alive. If... the old thief will return to his hometown Ding You. If he
If he doesn't go back, more people will definitely scold him for being unfaithful and unfilial, abandoning his country and his family. How will Old Thief Hong deal with himself then?"
After hearing this, Yan Ermei couldn't help but take a breath of air, and even Ye Tinglan's expression changed.
This trick is really cruel, arsenic mixed with devil pepper, poisonous and spicy.
The so-called disaster does not harm the family. Even if Hong Chengchou surrendered, the Hongguang court did not raid Hong Chengchou's home and take his parents out and behead them.
Of course, there were also many northern ministers who followed the Ming court, and the Qing Dynasty did not exterminate the nine tribes.
It’s not that both sides are very kind, but they just want to win people’s hearts and cannot get things done. After all, those who maintained the Ming and Qing Dynasties were the same group of scholar-bureaucrats with similar backgrounds.
But Zhu Yiyuan's move can be regarded as tearing apart this veil.
Hong Chengchou was in his fifties and sixties, and his parents were older. The son's surrender to the enemy was already a great shock. If the curses continued, it was hard to say how long the old couple could survive.
If his parents died, Hong Chengchou would definitely be worried. In this way, the old thieves would have three years without being able to do anything. There is no doubt that this is great news for the people with lofty ideals in the world who are fighting against the Qing Dynasty.
After all, three years will give everyone a lot of room for development.
"Ding You is not absolutely sure. What if the Qing court regains its love?" Ye Tinglan hesitated.
Yan Ermei thought for a moment and laughed loudly, "If Hong Chengchou surrenders to the Qing Dynasty, angers his parents to death, and returns to the Qing Dynasty, the unfilial son will not be able to escape. As Zhu Gongzi said, he abandoned his country and his family. Moreover, Hong Chengchou will not be able to help the Qing court.
He rarely gives advice, but must follow the rules. He said this, but when it came to himself, he would break the rules and take revenge. What would others think of him? The Qing Dynasty was not monolithic, and there were so many shameless traitors.
They are coveting Hong Chengchou's position. When the time comes, there will be no shortage of constraints and criticisms. Old thief Hong is exhausted and is in trouble both internally and externally. I want to see how long he can last!"
Ye Tinglan lowered his head and thought for a moment, his palms became sweaty and he was extremely shocked.
Because this strategy is interconnected and almost impeccable.
The most important thing is that the investment cost is extremely small, but the possible benefits are immeasurable.
"Although they are the parents of old thief Hong, they deserve to die, but after all, this is not what a gentleman did."
Yan Ermei muttered: "That's true, but now, do you still pay attention to the way of a gentleman? If we don't get rid of the old thief Hong, the anti-Qing patriots and heroes in the south will be ruined and countless casualties will be lost. Just based on this
Even if it’s a little bit more cruel, I can still use it.”
Ye Tinglan pondered for a moment, thought about it, and could only nod, "Indeed, I will write a letter to my brother. He is in Fujian, following Emperor Longwu, and it seems that he can attack Hong Thief's parents."
Yan Ermei also said: "I also want to write a letter to Mr. Meicun, asking him to polish it with a big pen, and come up with a play as soon as possible to scold the Hong thief, ruining his reputation and ruining his family."
The Mr. Meicun mentioned by Yan Ermei is none other than Wu Weiye. His name is Meicun. In the fourth year of Chongzhen reign, he ranked first in the joint examination and second in the palace examination. He was one of the best in the country.
At that time, some people said that Wu Weiye was involved in fraud, so Chongzhen issued an order and personally reviewed the papers. After reading them, Chongzhen criticized him with eight words: "upright and liberal, but cunning and cunning."
Although most of them are disciples of the Emperor, some people are even more disciples of the Emperor. With these eight words, Wu Weiye's reputation has skyrocketed. The Emperor said that his articles are very upright and can be a paradigm for the world. From now on, he will be tested again.
All those who took the imperial examination carefully studied Wu Weiye's articles.
Just this point made Wu Weiye burst into tears of gratitude and full of feelings for Chongzhen.
Looking at these literati in the late Ming Dynasty, this is also very special.
Yan Ermei has a deep friendship with the people in Fushe and is also familiar with Wumei Village.
Don't underestimate these scholar-bureaucrats. It's probably not easy to let them do some serious work, but it's still easy to do some tricks in secret and start a trend.
After all, who was responsible for all the messy things that happened in the late Ming Dynasty and the public?
By leaving this matter to them, people can make the best use of their talents and materials.
However, Zhu Yiyuan also knew that these methods could not solve the fundamental problem after all. The gap in strength between the two sides was too great. He had only determined the strategy now. Next, he had to take drastic measures to continue to develop and grow, and to get enough capital as soon as possible.
Zhu Yiyuan felt that he was racing against time... Hong Chengchou, who was scolded, still broke through.
At the welcome ceremony, this old guy behaved calmly and didn't care at all. However, he turned around and asked about the situation in Shandong, especially directly asking Governor Fang Dayou. Zhang Ge's family was wiped out. What happened?
"Zhang Ge was an honest and kind man. He had supported and protected me back then. His family also sympathized with the Qing Dynasty. He was a model for scholars in Shandong. However, there were thieves who broke into the Zhang family and massacred the Zhang family. Don't the officials in Shandong feel guilty?
"
Hong Chengchou directly questioned the crime, "I was ordered to conquer the south. Shandong is the fundamental place for the rear. If it cannot be stabilized as soon as possible and affects the overall situation, how can I explain to the court?"
Governor Fang Dayou was trembling with fear and sweating profusely. Although Shandong was not under Hong Chengchou's jurisdiction, it would not be difficult at all for him to write a letter to remove him as a small governor.
"Please rest assured, Lord Governor, I will definitely mobilize the troops as soon as possible to destroy Xie Qian and avenge the Zhang family..."
Before Fang Dayou could finish speaking, someone suddenly ran in quickly.
"Sir, it's not good, the Xie thieves have entered Zichuan County."
In a word, everyone present was shocked... This chapter has been completed!
