It's like the courtiers who have been under house arrest for a day and a night, and they can finally return home.

Thanks to Zhu Yujiao's "will" and their advice that they no longer oppose Wu Zheng, Wu Zheng was accommodating and allowed the officials to go home, but they were not allowed to leave the capital, which was equivalent to residential surveillance.

It's so rampant!

It's too domineering!

Today's Cao Apu!

The officials left in droves, and these words were heard endlessly.

Huang Daozhou and Qian Sule looked at each other and smiled bitterly, in their hearts, they actually thought that Wu Zheng's move was indeed a bit excessive, these officials were the pillars of the Yixing Dynasty, Wu Zheng did this, wouldn't it offend the civil and military officials and isolate himself from the court?

……。

Wu Zheng left the palace and went straight to Xia Wanchun's mansion.

Originally, he wanted to wait for Xia Wanchun to heal and then inquire about it, but now Wu Zheng has no patience.

Xia Wanchun and his wife obviously didn't expect that a day later, Wu Zheng would come to the door again.

But the good news of recovering the big victory has been obtained.

"Congratulations to the prince on his victory and the prestige of our country!" Xia Wanchun bowed his hand on the couch and said solemnly.

These words really came from Xia Wanchun's heart, not a compliment.

With less than 20,000 men and one day, it is indeed worth congratulating to recover a strong pass garrisoned by more than 20,000 Qing troops.

However, Wu Zheng was not very interested, he just nodded with a smile, and then said to Qian Qinzhen: "I have not eaten a grain of rice for seven or eight hours from last night to now, and I am so hungry that my chest is pressed against my back...... Bothering my brother and sister to cook a bowl of noodles for me, okay? ”

Qian Qinzhen was very smart, and after she was stunned for a moment, she quickly realized that Wu Zheng had something to say to Xia Wanchun, otherwise, when she was the king of the dynasty, even if she was really hungry, she would not open her mouth to beg for food.

When Qian Qin Zhen smiled and left, Xia Wanchun also realized that Wu Zheng came in a hurry at this time, and he must have something important to tell him.

"Wu Zheng, but you're in trouble?"

Wu Zheng hesitated for a moment, looked at Xia Wanchun's eyes and said: "Originally, I wanted to wait for you to get better before talking about this matter, but after all, I felt that it was inappropriate, the more this matter dragged on, the more serious the consequences became, and it must be corrected quickly." ”

Xia Wanchun's face became serious, and he straightened up, "You say, what's the matter?" ”

"The last time I saw you, I specifically mentioned the scale of the Ming Society, reminding you that it is better to have a shortage than an abuse, and that the members of the Ming Society need to be purged, right?"

"Yes, there is." Xia Wanchun nodded in response.

"But this time when I came to Beijing, I learned that the Ming Society not only did not relent, but became even more unscrupulous, and even ordinary peddlers and pawns did not refuse to come...... Do you know this? ”

Xia Wanchun's face changed: "So that's what you said...... Speaking of which, I was negligent, after you said it last time, I did confess to it, temporarily stop expanding the number of people in the Ming Society, but because of the start of the war, I led Jianyang Wei to help, and I was negligent for a while, and I didn't personally supervise it...... I am indeed to blame for this, please punish the prince. ”

Wu Zheng frowned, he was most afraid that Xia Wanchun was involved in this matter, but since Xia Wanchun admitted it, Wu Zheng couldn't blame him too much.

Wu Zheng waved his hand and said: "It's too important to keep the ancient sayings, after all, it is your unintentional fault, but this matter cannot be delayed, and it must be corrected immediately, otherwise if this continues, the Ming Society will be reduced to a Jianghu society, such a cross-class and racial behemoth, once it is manipulated by people with intentions, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Xia Wanchun was a little unimpressed, but he also responded: "Just do what the prince wants...... However, this matter is not as serious as what the prince said, after all, the people in the Ming Society advocate loyalty to the country and the ...... of the nation. ”

Wu Zheng was a little annoyed, and endured his anger, but his tone was a little unkind, "In ancient times, when a community expands to cross classes and races, this is not an ordinary community, it has actually formed a containment and threat to the government...... This has nothing to do with its advocacy, you are also a person who raised the banner and advocated the righteous army against the Qing Dynasty, the good and the bad among the people, they are not trained, they are not like the soldiers to prohibit it, this can be tolerated when the enemy is opposed, but once it is internal, it is a disaster...... Remember, it is easy to start a popular movement, but it is extremely difficult to reap it. ”

Although Xia Wanchun didn't fully understand what Wu Zheng meant, Wu Zheng's solemnity made him realize that there might be something wrong with this matter, so he responded: "I wrote it down." ”

Wu Zheng sighed and said, "There is one more thing, which is also from the Ming Society...... I heard that now that you are in the Ming Society, you only need to pay two taels of silver a year, which is very inappropriate, isn't this a disguised accumulation of wealth? If the Ming Society lacks funds, you can tell me, I will find a way, at least I am still a member of the Ming Society, and it is my duty to do so, but such a collection of wealth will only bring one consequence, that is, those who have money will come, and those who have no money will get out...... Is this still the original intention of you to start Ming Society? ”

Xia Wanchun's face changed suddenly, and he shouted: "Where did the prince hear about this, why don't I know?" ”

Wu Zheng frowned, he obviously didn't expect Xia Wanchun to deny it, in fact, in Wu Zheng's opinion, this matter is not too great, before it is not worthy of the worst result, unify your thoughts and correct it.

But Xia Wanchun denied it, which made Wu Zheng a little impatient, and he said: "There will definitely be nothing wrong with this information!" If you weren't the leader of the Ming Society, I would have ordered the Ming Society to be banned at that time...... I will never allow the Ming Society to become a Jianghu society, even if it is only a 10% probability. This must be corrected, and it must be done urgently! ”

Xia Wanchun was also anxious, he shook his head and said, "Wu Zheng, don't worry...... I really don't know about this, you think, how can I use such despicable means to collect money? ”

Wu Zhengwen fell silent when he heard this, it is true that this thing is very strange, it is said that with Xia Wanchun's character, he should not be able to do this, but Chang Linwei's information should not be wrong.

Wu Zheng looked at Xia Wanchun and said, "You said you don't know, I believe it!" But there must be something about this, it must be investigated, maybe someone is acting recklessly behind your back. ”

These words made Xia Wanchun's face change drastically, and he turned his head slightly, avoiding Wu Zheng's gaze.

This made Wu Zheng's heart skip a beat, "Cungu, between you and me, there shouldn't be anything that can't be spread out, right?" ”

Xia Wanchun hesitated for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Wu Zheng, I do have something to hide from you...... Do you know that Mr. Wozi is my teacher, he intended a coup d'état before, and was found guilty by His Majesty in advance, or did you intercede with Your Majesty to save your teacher's life. ”

Wu Zheng was stunned and said, "Could it be that you gave him Ming Society...... Ming She is actually under Chen Zilong's control? ”

"No, no, you misunderstood, how could I give Ming Society to the teacher, and besides, the teacher has already gone to Hangzhou to join you...... I mean, the Ming Society is a loose society, and there are no positions in the society, and a few of our founders are managing it. ”
