During the Jiajing period, the celebrities in Zhejiang were Hu Zongxian and Qi Jiguang.

In the Wanli Dynasty, there was only one celebrity in Zhejiang, and that was Shen Zhengyi.

Hu Zongxian and Qi Jiguang were famous for their anti-Japanese struggles, while Shen was famous for his party struggles.

Under the leadership of his old man, the four parties of Qi Chu and Kunxuan were closely united under the banner of the Zhejiang Party, and in one fell swoop, the Donglin Party was suppressed for more than ten years and could not turn over, and he also used the demon book case and the Chu Zong case to almost clear the bachelors and prince teachers of the Donglin First Department. It can't be said that it is not unglamorous.

As a result, Feng Shui takes turns, and the first assistant takes turns to do it.

Shen's glorious life began with and ended with party struggle.

Two years ago, Wanli specially allowed Shen to return to his hometown with the qualifications of the first assistant, and Shen Li, the second assistant who had been fighting with Shen for many years, was directly dismissed.

However, although the emperor was still good to Shen and the tone of his will was also very gentle, in any case, Shen's consistent Zhishi meant that the Zhejiang Party lost ground in the Korean struggle, because it was Ye Xianggao of the Donglin Party who was close to the cabinet.

Since the next two years, the Zhejiang Party has also died down in the court, and it is no longer the prestige of commanding several parties. The Donglin Party took the opportunity of Ye Xianggao's Pavilion to attack in an all-round way, as if it had become the largest party in the Ming Dynasty.

Shen Zheng's hometown is in Yinxian County, Ningbo, and he returned to his hometown for two years, but he is also indifferent and no longer fights with the world. In order to kill time, he specially built a garden outside the east gate of the mansion, the garden is not big, but there are mountains and rivers, flowers and trees, and there are many strange fish, in the river and in the sea. Therefore, the garden deliberately built several pools, light, salty, not light and salty, which really made it difficult for the craftsmen who built it at that time, and also tossed the servants in the garden.

Fish farming is a technical job.

Raised well, the old Xiangguo didn't speak. If you don't raise it well, the old Xiangguo will lose his temper.

The overall cost of the garden is calculated, at least tens of thousands of taels, and this money will definitely not be paid by Lao Xiangguo himself. Looking at the provinces of Zhejiang, those who are willing to repair the garden for the old Xiangguo may be able to go for several miles.

After the garden was repaired, Lao Xiangguo enjoyed the scenery in this garden every day, drank Shaoxing rice wine, fed the fish, or fished, and the days were interesting.

The people in the Zhejiang Party have already been passed on, and there is nothing to try not to disturb the old Xiangguo's recuperation, and the only one who can enter the house directly without being summoned is the Zhejiang Party and the former Guozi Priest Fang Congzhe.

Fang is a very old man, he is a native of Huzhou, in the eleventh year of Wanli, he is a scholar, and he is ranked second. When he served as an editor in the Hanlin Academy, his writing was outstanding, and many articles were included in the anthology by the first assistant Wang Xijue, which was regarded as a model. Lecturing on the East Palace, he has written to the emperor many times to maintain the status of the East Palace. Transferred from the Sipin Dynasty to the doctor, for the business of the country's eunuch, sacrificial wine, and wrote to the emperor, asking not to open mines and collect taxes.

On the point of opposing the mining tax, the attitude of the Donglin Party and the Zhejiang Party is the same, because the interests of both sides are also the same. It can be said that the gentry all over the world oppose the emperor's mining and taxation, because this is a competition with the "people".

In terms of common interests, all parties can work together and advance and retreat together. And once the parties unite and cooperate, even the emperor can only hide in the palace depressed and dare not compete with it.

Originally, Fang Congzhe did a very smooth job, but later, because the eunuch Tian Yi hoped to let him be the nephew of the prisoner and go to the back door to become an official, Fang Congzhe refused, which made Tian Yi unhappy and said that he would rectify him.

At that time, Tian Yi had a very important position in the palace, not only respected by the emperor, but also respected by the foreign court, so Fang Congzhe had no choice but to resign and live at home.

This matter not only made Fang Congzhe get the attention of Shen Zhengyi, the leader of the Zhejiang Party, but also made the rest of the parties recognize him.

After Shen became the first assistant, he hoped that Fang Congzhe would be able to return to the mountain, but Fang Congzhe refused. Last year, the first assistant Ye Xianggao also recommended to the emperor that Fang Congzhe continue to repair the jade, and serve as the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites and the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, but Fang Congzhe did not succeed. It is rumored that there is also Fang Congzhe among the candidates for the cabinet that Ye Xianggao reported to the emperor this year, but it is not known whether this is the case. Even if it is true, the emperor agrees, and it is unknown if Fang Congzheken refuses to enter the cabinet.

After all, no matter how much Ye Xianggao of the Donglin Party values Fang Congzhe, Fang is always a member of the Zhejiang Party. The struggle between the Zhejiang Party and the Donglin Party lasted for nearly 20 years, and the two sides were very incompatible.

The last time Fang Congzhe came to Ningbo Shen Mansion was on the 5th of last month, why did he come, and what Lao Xiangguo explained to him, outsiders don't know.

It's just that the subordinates of the Shen Mansion knew that after Fang Xianggong left, Lao Xiangguo deliberately opened a bottle of his twenty-year-old daughter red, and drank half a bottle by himself, and almost had stamina.

Because we all know that Lao Xiangguo loves to drink rice wine, there can be thousands of bottles of high-quality rice wine in Lao Xiangguo's mansion. When Lao Xiangguo is fine, he also likes to sit alone in the pavilion, watching paintings and enjoying the scenery while drinking.

Approaching the end of the year, the weather must be cold, and Lao Xiangguo is old, so his family doesn't want Lao Xiangguo to be cold outside.

But Lao Xiangguo's temper is tough, and he has been an official all his life, and he is the same at home, and none of his children dares to anger him.

Only the words of the little granddaughter, Lao Xiangguo listened to it. But the little granddaughter went to Hangzhou and her aunt's house was not in the house, so the old Xiangguo turned his face, who dared not let him go to the garden.

When Lao Xiangguo put on a mink coat and went to the garden, he deliberately took a painting from the study. In the garden, the maids had already prepared the wine and food, and there was a stove next to it to ensure that the wine and food would not be cold.

After Lao Xiangguo sat down, he first tasted a few chopsticks, and then asked someone to clean up the table, and then carefully untied the tether of the scroll of the painting, and carefully spread it on the table to observe.

When the maids who were waiting on the side saw the painting, they immediately blushed one by one.

It turned out that the painting that Lao Xiangguo looked at was actually a picture of the Spring Palace!

In the painting, between the pavilions and courtyards, a man and a woman lie naked in one place, with beautiful lines, embellished with black hair, and their bodies are intertwined.

This painting is really of the highest quality, the painting is extremely realistic, and it makes people feel excited at a glance.

The maids in the house are all family girls, and they have never had a human being, and when they saw this painting, they blushed and their hearts were beating, and they turned their eyes away one by one, lest they have a needle eye after one more look.

Lao Xiangguo is looking at it with relish, and the maids are blushing and heartbeat, Lao Xiangguo's expression is focused, his eyes are full of appreciation, while looking, he also uses his fingers to slowly grope the lines in the painting, trying to estimate how the painter painted at that time, and wondering if he can also paint.

That obsessive look, there is no obscenity at all.

Therefore, the name of the painting is "Fengyue Organ Map", which was painted by Tang Bohu, a famous genius in the south of the Yangtze River during the Chenghua period.
