Father-in-law Wei was busy collecting money to do big things in Beijing, sharpening his knife and going to the South Seas, by the Grand Canal in Zhangjiawan, Tongzhou, Li Sancai, the prime minister of Xiuwu, was on the railing of the pavilion bank by the river, looking at the cargo ships coming from south to north lonely.

"Daofu gives a word, to go or not to go? If you don't learn from that temple, there is a place for you to stand in Beijing. The matter of the Imperial Tomb has made His Majesty unhappy, and the traitorous party is leading against the small calamity, can you really get caught up in the uncle? Standing next to Li Sancai was a white-haired old man, who was Zou Yuanbiao, one of the elders of Donglin Kaishan and a former official in the matter.

This Zou Yuanbiao is very old in the Donglin Party, and he was admitted to the Jinshi as early as the fifth year of Wanli and entered the Criminal Department to observe government affairs. His teacher was Hu Zhi, a jinshi in the Jiajing period and an envoy in Guangdong and Fujian. And that Hu Zhi is a protΓ©gΓ© of Ouyang De, a disciple of Wang Shouren, so speaking of which, Zou Yuanbiao is really a disciple of Wang Shouren, a master of psychology.

Zou Yuanbiao was demoted to Guizhou in his early years because of his opposition to Zhang Juzheng's seizure of affection, and he was exiled for six years. After Zhang Juzheng's death, he was reinstated as a minister, and later offended the first assistant Shen Shixing and was transferred to the head of the military department. Later, he was dismissed due to illness and simply returned to his hometown to lecture, so he became acquainted with Gu Xiancheng and founded Donglin Academy with him.

During this period, Zou Yuanbiao, Gu Xiancheng and Zhao Nanxing were called the "three gentlemen" in the Donglin Party.

Since Wanli returned to his hometown in the 18th year, Zou Yuanbiao has not gone north for 20 years.

Since the Huanglingmu incident, not only Li Sancai has been in a difficult situation, but Gu Xiancheng, who is far away in Wuxi, has been in a difficult situation. Although all the bullet stamps in the palace were left in the middle, the Donglin Party with a keen sense of smell still saw the dissatisfaction in the emperor's heart. For this reason, many people wrote to Li Sancai, hoping that he would resign from his official position and resign from India in order to sacrifice himself to save the whole party. Otherwise, the five parties will be staring at this matter, and the court will not know how long it will be chaotic.

Li Sancai was very hesitant, he had been up and down in the sea for decades, and he was about to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister, but he failed because of a small brocade guard, and the frustration in his heart could not be said by outsiders.

During this time in Zhangjiawan, he thought about it a lot, and finally decided to take another look.

After all, the emperor kept his resignation in the middle.

However, the party could not allow him to look at it again and wait any longer.

It is said that the five parties have collected a large amount of evidence from Nanzhili and are ready to collect materials to make another trend.

This time, Donglin is already at a disadvantage, and if the next time the tide is bigger, it is difficult to guarantee that the emperor will not be angry.

Fuqing Xianggong is like a tinker who worries about his strength, not only to be busy with state affairs, but also to worry about party affairs, to reconcile the contradictions of all parties, and then let him be so tired, how can he bear it.

The big picture counts.

Zou Taijun came here to be entrusted by Gu Xiancheng to persuade Li Sancai to hang the seal.

In front of Zou Yuanbiao, who was older than himself, Li Sancai smiled bitterly and told the truth: "I'm still thinking about this matter." ”

Zou Yuanbiao shook his head: "What else is there to calculate, you should be clear about the stakes." ”

"It doesn't matter if I go to office, but the traitorous party is rampant, if I retreat, it won't take a few years, and the loyalty of the DPRK and China will be wiped out by them." Speaking of this, Li Sancai's eyes showed a little worry.

"The sound of the wind and the rain, the sound of reading, the sound is in the ears; Family affairs, national affairs, world affairs, everything is concerned. Daofu, a member of my generation, has always known that there is no aspiring scholar who does not put salvation in the first place. Uncle Shi is such a sage who worries about the world, but what? Will the court allow him, or will His Majesty allow him? Zou Yuanbiao is deeply affectionate, "Therefore, my generation should analyze and understand, when to advance, when to retreat, only in place can we be at ease." ”

Li San knew what Zou Yuanbiao meant, he is gone now, and he may not have a chance to make a comeback in the future.

If you are obsessed, you will mistake yourself and your colleagues.

"Uncle Shi wrote several letters, I should have seen through them, but what about seeing through them. Is this court really a sage? Li Sancai disagreed, "He said that when they attacked their uncle, what kind of evidence could be put on the table... If there is no offering, how can there be the way of the sages, how can there be a time to preach....and they say that I am extravagant, but I have my own money, what does it matter to them? ”

Zou Yuanbiao knew that Li Sancai was here, and it was inconvenient to talk about him, so he only said one thing.

"Recently, there have been rumors that you received 400,000 taels of silver from Chen Zeng, but is there such a thing?"

Hearing this, Li Sancai's color changed: "Where did you hear the news?" ”

Zou Yuanbiao didn't answer, but only asked him: "Is there such a thing?" ”

"This..."Li San hesitated a little, and then sighed, "I took money from him." ”

"Why are you so confused!"

Zou Yuanbiao was angry and anxious, although he knew that this thing must be true, but he really confirmed it from Li Sancai's mouth, and he couldn't help but be a little angry.

"Brother Erzhan don't want to be like this, I was also confused at that time."

Li Sancai also regretted that he was really greedy for money, so he blackmailed Chen Zeng, the supervisor of Shandong mines.

Here's the thing, when Li Sancai was the governor of Caoyun, someone went to the governor's yamen to complain to Cheng Shouxun.

Cheng Shouxun is who, the original butcher is also. However, he was the first to advocate the mine tax collector, and was specially appointed by the emperor as a scholar in the middle school, and he was worthy of the Wuying Palace. Later, he went to Shandong with the eunuch Chen Zeng to open a mine and made a lot of money.

The complainant has a lot of evidence that Cheng Shouxun acted misbehaps, and Li Sancai took the paper, which should have been dealt with impartially, even if he couldn't deal with Cheng Shouxun, he should have reported it. However, he did not take the matter into account, but sent someone to invite Chen Zeng, the supervisor of the Shandong mine, to the banquet.

After receiving the invitation from the Governor of Caoyun, the Governor of Fengyang, and the Minister of Donglin Li, Chen Zeng was flattered.

Don't look at him as a mine supervisor in Shandong, he has a lot of weight in the emperor's mind, but in the final analysis, he is just a slave of the eunuch temple. And what kind of person is Li Sancai, the official of the feudal territory, the person who is reused by the emperor, the optimus prime of the Donglin Party, and the existence that the world's scholars look up to.

When such a big man invited him to a banquet, Chen Zeng was very excited, and he was excited to take people to the banquet of Prime Minister Li.

At the banquet, Li Sancai was polite at first, and after touching the glass a few times, he took out a few letters from his arms and handed them to Chen Zeng, and then said that someone had exposed his subordinates who had set up a private court with Cheng Shouxun to blackmail businessmen.

Chen Zeng was stunned, glanced at the letter on the table, and excused Cheng Shouxun without thinking about it. It is too difficult to say that it is too difficult to collect taxes for the emperor, there are too many people in the place, and what they do is to offend people, and there are many complaints, which are commonplace, and the governor should not take it to heart.

In fact, Chen Zeng has really seen a lot, and over the years, he has been tired of suing him, Cheng Shouxun, and other references.

Not only on his side, but also on the provincial mine tax commissioner, which is not accused.

But if you really leave as soon as you tell you, you will withdraw, you will be closed, and you will be killed, who will do things for the emperor.

The emperor really wants to believe you foreign officials, why use us domestic slaves.

Chen Zeng smiled.
