Who is Mr. Congyun, who can make Bai Tianchen so out of shape?

This Mr. Congyun's surname is Gao, his name is Gao Panlong, and he also has a nickname called Mr. Jingyi, the latter is the most famous.

Who is this Gao Panlong? It's not easy to talk about this, because the now famous Donglin College was jointly founded by Gao Panlong and Gu Xiancheng's brothers, and after Gu Xiancheng's death, Gao Panlong became a banner of the Donglin Party.

Gao Panlong, who has served as Taichang Shaoqing, the right Shaoqing of Dali Temple, the Taifuqing, the right waiter of the Criminal Department, and the left capital of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, although the official position of Gao Panlong is not high, but this has a lot of energy, and now the reason why the Donglin Party can spread all over the south of the Yangtze River and become the first major force in the court is inseparable from Gao Panlong's efforts.

Now such a cow man wants to invite Bai Tianchen to the banquet, and it is impossible for Bai Tianchen to say that he is not surprised. He picked up the invitation on the table and looked at it over and over again for a while, and finally hesitated for a while before returning the invitation to Liao Yongquan, "Lord Liao's kindness is appreciated by the lower officials, but the lower officials are already about to give their respects, so the lower officials will not go to this banquet, and ask Lord Liao to thank the good intentions of the high adults on behalf of the lower officials." ”

Liao Yongquan's face finally turned cold: "Brother Hong Ming, have you really decided?" ”

"Xia Guan has thought about it." Bai Tianchen turned his heart sideways, "Xiaguan has figured it out in the past two days, whether it is Lord Liao or that Lord Yang, they are not people that Xiaguan can afford to provoke, and besides, there are still a few months before Xiaguan will return to his hometown, and he really has no spirit to mix those things." ”

"Brother Hong Ming, you have disappointed me too much." Liao Yongquan snorted coldly: "Where did my generation of scholars come from, isn't it just for the sake of a heroic and righteous spirit, to establish a heart for heaven and earth and to establish a life for the people, but now you are so afraid of a vulgar martial artist, where have you read all these years of sage books?" ”

Bai Tianchen gave Liao Yongquan a roll of his eyes with disdain, Liao Yongquan's words to coax those rookie newcomers who had just entered the officialdom were almost the same, thinking that he had been up and down in the Huan Sea for decades, and he had seen too many dirty things, you Liao Yongquan just told others this kind of thing, but now he came to show me, you were still breastfeeding when the old man coaxed others.

However, there are some things that can be seen through and not broken, Bai Tianchen will naturally not be naïve enough to argue with him about these things, he said with a "sincere" look: "My lord is smiling, Xia Guan is already fifty and nine this year, and he will return to his hometown in a few months." The reason why Lord Gao asked Xia Guan to go Xia Guan also understood a little, but Xia Guan asked himself that he no longer had this ability, so he didn't go to offer ugliness. ”

The biggest advantage of talking to smart people is that you don't have to talk too much, and the meaning of Bai Tianchen is very clear. I know very well the purpose of inviting me to the banquet, but I, an old man who is very fast, don't want to mix this kind of thing, you should ask another master.

"This old fox!" Liao Yongquan secretly scolded in his heart, but on the surface he still laughed, "Since Brother Hong Ming has said so, the official will not say anything anymore, and the official will wish Brother Hong Ming a smooth journey, and the official will leave first." ”

After speaking, Liao Yongquan arched his hand and left.

Bai Tianchen looked at Liao Yongquan's back disappearing at the door and was silent for a long time, and a middle-aged man who looked like a servant walked in from outside, bowed down and said to Bai Tianchen: "Master, Madame asked the villain to tell you that just now the Duke of Wei sent an invitation to invite you to come to the mansion at night." ”

"The Duke of Wei's Mansion?" Bai Tianchen's eyes froze, and then he waved his hand a little irritably, "If you don't go, you go back and tell Madame that in the future, anyone who sends an invitation will say that the old man is unwell and will not participate in any banquet." ”

"Yes!" The servant said nothing, bowed and withdrew.

Looking at the sunset that was about to fall, Bai Chen snorted coldly: "Do these people really think that they have eaten the old man, last time they used the old man as a gun for a while, and this time they want to do it again, are they really old and confused?" If you want to deal with Old Man Yang Feng, don't stop him, but don't take Old Man for a fool. ”

Since the middle of March of the sixth year of the Apocalypse, whether it is the capital, Nanjing or even the court, there is an undercurrent, and the civil official group headed by the Donglin Party has begun to connect in series, and some rumors have also begun to spread in Shuntianfu, Yingtianfu and even Jiangnan.

Beijing Zhengyangmen Street, through the east and west of the Pearl City and south, to the northwest of the Temple of Heaven is the famous Tianqiao area of Beijing, where a large number of ordinary people gathered, many Jianghu artists will be here to perform juggling, there are bow pulling, knife lifting, shaking bamboo, dancing fork, climbing pole, monkey and so on, all kinds of juggling as long as you can think of almost can be seen here.

Of course, for the Chinese people, food is also essential, here brings together all kinds of snacks from all over the world, all kinds of teahouses for the civilian class are also everywhere, only a big son can drink a bowl of hearty big bowl of tea, if you are willing to add a few copper plates, the tea shop Xiao Er will also send you peanuts and melon seeds, many ordinary people will invite three or five neighbors or friends to spend more than ten big sons to sit here for a day while drinking tea while listening to the storyteller in the teahouse. It wasn't until sunset that he went home leisurely.

In March and April, although it has reached the season of green and yellow, the popularity of the flyover has not weakened much, and the teahouse near the flyover is still crowded. There is a Liu Yuan teahouse in the lion alley on the east side of the overpass, this teahouse was opened in the early years of Chenghua, it has a history of fifty or sixty years from now, it is a time-honored teahouse, and the old and young masters of the lion alley near it like to come here to drink tea and Kan Dashan when they have nothing to do.

In all dynasties, the common people at the feet of the Son of Heaven are a group of people who are most interested in politics, whether it is a big or small matter in the court, they like to inquire, and then everyone sits together and chats, and in recent times, everyone is most interested in the Jiangning army that has just won the battle in Liaodong and was ordered to return to the dynasty.

Jiang Laosan is in his Chinese New Year's Eve, and when he was young, he was a famous stubborn lord in the Lion Alley area, and he did not do his business all day, ganged up, and fooled around all day. However, as he grew older, he began to gradually regain his heart, and spent all day helping those powerful people in Beijing to run errands to earn some hard-earned money.

As a former stubborn master, Jiang Laosan's news is naturally extremely well-informed, and the tea guests who often come to Liu Yuan Teahouse to drink tea on weekdays like to invite Jiang Laosan to drink tea, and listen to him talk about all kinds of interesting things that have happened in the palace or court recently, and today is no exception.

Jiang Laosan is of medium stature, slightly fat, and has a lion nose, and today he still sits on the main seat of the large table in the center of the teahouse, surrounded by more than a dozen old and young masters from the lion alley. He picked up the big bowl of tea in front of him and took a big sip, picked up the peanuts with his right hand and gently pinched them to make a chirping sound, and then skillfully threw them into his mouth, and then said to the people on the table with a smile: "Old and young masters, do you know what has happened in our capital recently?" ”

"Hi...... Who doesn't know that. A young man in his twenties, with a thin stature, said with a smile: "The most popular in our capital recently is the Nanjing general soldier, Jiang Ningwei's commander Yang Feng Yang, who has just defeated Jiannu in Liaodong, he not only personally killed the banner owner of the Zhenglan Banner Mang Gurtai, and even the thief chief Nurhachi was blown up by him to the point that he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he picked up the limelight, who can compare to him now!" I've heard that this time Lord Long Live summoned Lord Yang back to promote him to an official. ”

"yes, that's what we've heard."

"That is, Lord Yang has made such a great achievement, if he is not promoted, who will want to fight in the future!"

Seeing that everyone was saying good things for Yang Feng, Jiang Laosan smiled slightly, put the peanut shell in his hand in the empty basin in front of him, and then took a sip of a large bowl of tea before saying lightly: "Although this is the case, but as the saying goes, blessings and misfortunes are relied upon, and sometimes it may not be a good thing to be too popular." ”

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and the emaciated young man looked at Jiang Laosan and asked curiously, "Huh...... Jiang Sanye, it seems that there are still words in your words, what else is hidden in it? ”

"That's right, Third Master Jiang, could it be that something has happened in the court these days?" A middle-aged man in his forties also asked.

Although this middle-aged man is nearly ten years older than Jiang Laosan, Jiang Laosan has been doing things for those powerful people all year round, and his style has begun to rise, and he is no longer a gangster more than ten years ago, so many people call him the third master, and this middle-aged man is no exception.

Jiang Laosan glanced left and right, lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Old and young masters, I can't hide it, I just got the news, a few days ago, our General Yang, who had just defeated Jiannu, was impeached, maybe he wants to say something." ”

"What? was impeached, what the hell is going on, how did you get impeached? "Everyone was taken aback when they heard this, since ancient times, the general has returned to the dynasty victoriously, and people have not yet arrived to be impeached, such a thing is very rare, who ate the bear's heart leopard dared to impeach the meritorious man at this juncture.

"Jiang Xiaosan, hurry up and tell the big guy, who did such a thing of having a son without a butt, Lord Yang is killing the Tartars in front of him, why are there all the people making trouble behind." This is said by an uncle in his sixties, this uncle is also surnamed Jiang is Jiang Laosan's family, and he grew up watching him grow up, so he speaks with a sense of randomness.

Jiang Laosan looked around and said: "It is said that there are many people who impeach Lord Yang, both from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and people from the Six Departments, and there are hundreds of people who impeach him before and after. ”

The crowd was even more surprised: "Yo...... There are so many people, what did Lord Yang do? Is it to rob the Tartars of their possessions or to kill the prisoners, or for some other reason? ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Laosan couldn't help laughing: "You must not think of the reason for the impeachment, it is said that this Lord Yang married a Mongolian woman a few months ago, and this Mongolian woman is the daughter of the leader of the Horqin tribe in Mongolia, in order to marry this woman, Lord Yang also sold a part of the salt and tea to them, and now those officials and imperial historians have seized this point and are desperately impeaching Lord Yang like crazy, and they want to cure Lord Yang's crimes." ”

"Hiss...... And what's going on? ”

Everyone couldn't help but scratch their heads a little when they heard this, this kind of thing can be big or small. If no one investigates this kind of thing, you can turn a blind eye, and if someone wants to strictly investigate it, it is not impossible for you to say that you are in a foreign country, it depends on what it means.

That Uncle Jiang stroked his beard and frowned, "No, Lord Yang is just marrying a woman, this is also a matter?" Those officials are really salty and don't worry about eating radishes. ”

Jiang Laosan smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle, your old man only knows one and doesn't know the other, if Lord Yang marries an ordinary Mongolian woman, the problem is the eldest daughter of the leader of the Horqin tribe he went to." This Horqin tribe is very close to Jiannu, and the sister and aunt of the woman married by Lord Yang are married to the eighth prince of the thief chief Nurhachi, Emperor Taiji, speaking of which Lord Yang and Jiannu are still in-laws. ”

"What? And this kind of thing? Everyone was stunned at this time, and the feelings of Lord Yang and Jiannu had become in-laws, and this matter was troublesome. Those imperial historians and officials are a group of people who have nothing to do and are still looking for trouble, and they have to be impeached if they encounter such a thing.

"It's going to be hard." Uncle Jiang was also dumbfounded, Rao is that he has lived for most of his life and has never heard of such a thing, this Lord Yang is too ignorant, how can he be in-law with Jiannu?

Although the sound of their conversation was not loud, but what kind of people were sitting in the teahouse, it was all mosquitoes flying by, and the lord of the male and female could be heard, and almost all the people around Jiang Laosan heard what the people at the table said, and they were dumbfounded for a while.

At this time, the emaciated young man suddenly said: "Actually, according to me, what's the matter, isn't it just a Mongol?" The Mongolian second child killed by Lord Yang is still the fifth brother of Huang Taiji, and even the thief chief Nurhachi was blown up by Lord Yang to the point that he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, even if such a person is in-law with Huang Taiji, what's wrong? At least that's what people call righteous annihilation, right? ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then burst into laughter.

Almost at the same time, this matter began to spread in many places in the capital and even in the south of the Yangtze River, and within a few days it became known to everyone, and for a time it was rumored in the court, and many officials wrote to the emperor to severely punish Yang Feng, but many officials remained silent on this matter.

Many smart officials have noticed it, and the people who demand that Yang Feng be severely punished are almost all Donglin Party members, and the people who remain silent are eunuch Party members, and for a while there was a rumor in the court, and Yang Feng had come to the outskirts of Beijing to stop......
