Today's Dunan has become the main settlement of the Wuhui people in Gyeonggi, and the Wuhui people who live here have even surpassed the local villagers in Danyang.

Today's capital is full of warehouses and workshops, and there is little idle soil except for a few rivers and ponds used for transportation and merchants. Even some Tutang, which has existed for a long time, such as Xiadu and Longdu, have been piled up and enclosed and have become prosperous cities.

After several years of development, the overall area of Jiankang City has been expanded by more than one-third in the south alone.

Although the turmoil in the capital gradually settled, Shen Chong was not in a hurry to return to Jiankang City, and Shen Zhezi simply came to Dunan to visit his father. The father and son took a boat to swim in the lake, which was another fun.

"Although I have been thinking about it frequently in this half of my life, I am more self-exhorting to Yingmai, but I am also ashamed to say that I have rarely traveled to the river before, and I can't range over Jiangbei and even the Central Plains. Therefore, although my son has made many great achievements in the north, and made my court glorious, I really do not know the depth of the meaning. ”

Although Shen Chong is already in the position of the third duke, he is essentially just a local tyrant of Wu, especially in terms of knowledge, he is even more lackluster, after crossing the river, what is the scenery in the north, he is actually confused, and he is not afraid to say that he is shallow in front of his son.

Leaning on the railing of the upper level of the painting boat, he pointed to the rolling mansions by the lake and the bustling crowd, and his eyebrows were filled with strong pride: "Although I know the northern affairs shallowly, I have heard and seen how the Jiangdong countryside has been heard and seen since childhood." For example, the current prosperity of Dunan is not as good as that of ancient times. This prosperity, the beginning of my son's camp rules to create, only this local merit is a great benefit in this world, my family can be worthy of Jiangdong generations of heroes! ”

At this time, in addition to their father and son, there were also Wu Xiang henchmen such as Qian Feng and Ren Qiu, including He Yu, Ji Mu, who was close to his son and was about to leave, and other Jiangdong goodwill families.

Hearing Shen Chong's boastful words, everyone couldn't help laughing. There was not much ridicule in this laughter, because what Shen Chong said was the truth.

"It's still hard to make comparisons, but I've grown up in the land since I was a child, and I've seen it with my own eyes. In the early years, there was no lack of ideas for the benefit of the countryside, if you didn't see it with your own eyes, it would only be a dream. ”

Ji Mu also sighed and said, when it came to his feelings, he couldn't help but drink a glass.

Although as early as the old Wu period, Danyang was governed as the county where the national capital was located, and it was the first county in Jiangdong. But if it is true that it has benefited much, it is not necessarily true, and even suffered from various political factors such as the dispute between the two palaces of the old Wu, including the battle of the Central Jin Dynasty to destroy Wu, and even Danyang Wangzong like the Ji family was forced by the times to move to Liyang to avoid disaster.

The Middle Jin Dynasty was in trouble, the Central Plains was eroded, and Jiangdong was not able to stay alone, as far as Zhang Chang and Chen Min, and as close as Wang Dun and Su Jun. Of course, if you continue to talk about it deeply, Shen Chong, Qian Feng and other thieves who are three antis in Jiangnan have also made great efforts, but it is naturally not suitable to turn over those old accounts at the moment.

Nowadays, the prosperity of Jiankang has benefited the entire Danyang, and a large number of goods and manpower in Jiangdong are flooded here. said that the prosperity of Danyang is far away from ancient times, and it is also unbeautiful, and it is really in front of you. Even the only boastful Taikang prosperous era in modern times, Danyang did not benefit much.

And at present, this prosperity is naturally indispensable to the vigorous management of the Shen family, especially Shen Zhezi. The Shen family's contribution to the Jiangdong countryside is not only limited to the prosperity of the world, but more importantly, it breaks the geographical barriers between the various township sects, so that the counties and township clans in Jiangdong have a general opportunity to unite and communicate, which is an initiative that the Sun family did not do in the early years when he ruled Wu!

Hearing everyone's unreserved praise in his ears, Shen Zhezi also smiled humbly, raised his glass and sighed: "If it weren't for the love and support of the ancestor in his early years, with my humble strength, even if there is any delusion to benefit the world, it is difficult to have room for display!" ”

When everyone heard this, the atmosphere was a little gloomy for a while, and the topic turned to Ji Zhan, Gu Rong and some other former sages of Jiangdong.

"In previous years, China and North Korea lost their governance, causing disasters in the north, and the times came to the south to avoid disasters. For example, Yuan Gong, Huarong, Mu Gong and other virtuous elders are also grateful for righteousness, do not take private plans as a trap, Kuang Fu Jin Zuo and then set up a river table, and even widely criticized by the villagers, regardless of the honor and disgrace of the microbody, it is nothing more than the hope that the Huasheng will be endless, and Zhuxia will be transmitted. Later, Liang Gong rose up and the sages helped, so that Jin Zuo repeatedly turned the corner from danger to safety, and there is still a flourishing state of revival. However, even so, if my heart is not dead, I will still be screened and alienated repeatedly, and my Wu Shi will be separated from the king! ”

It was Wu Jun Gu Zhong who spoke out, this time Taichung carried out a large-scale purge, and he was not spared, and the original Dashangshu was deprived of his position, and only retained the vacant position of a national great zhongzheng, and even did not retain the title of close attendant such as Shizhong, Sancai, and Doctor.

Hearing Gu Zhong's angry voice, everyone present was also resentful.

This time, the purge in Taiwan was extremely strong, not only limited to the Shen family and its close to the sect, such as Wu Jun, who had little influence on the Shen family, such as Gu Zhong in front of him, was kicked out of Taicheng just because he had no shortage of personal contacts with Shen Chong. It can be said that there is no mistake in killing, which also makes many people who were originally just attached to the Shen family have to completely stand on the ship of the Shen family.

So this tour of the lake can be regarded as a gathering of the frustrated. Originally, it was just a private pastime gathering of Shen Chong's father and son and a few close people, but as more and more people joined in, the boat connection actually developed into a large gathering with hundreds of people, and it was no longer limited to Jiangdong people.

Shen Zhezi was in the middle of the banquet, and for a while he also sighed in his heart, if he used some phenomena in later generations as an analogy, after a vigorous purge in Taichung, the Shen family now seems to have become the leader of the opposition party.

This phenomenon is actually an inevitability, at least on the surface, in this round of central power struggle, the Shen family is an out-and-out frustrated, and a large number of officials have been cleared out of the capital.

Although Liang Gong's power has risen sharply, in the eyes of the people, this is the treatment that Liang Gong deserves. Moreover, the Central Plains has been lost for a long time, and most people are still not accustomed to taking it into account when weighing the current situation.

The Shen family's earlier strength was seen by everyone at the time. It can be said that as long as the banner of Liang Gong does not fall, even if there is a small setback temporarily, it is only a matter of time before he returns to the central situation.

It is already difficult to dispel the confidence of the people of the time in the Shen family with one or two power fights. Therefore, some people who were wrongly killed chose to take refuge in the Shen family and return to the current situation with the help of strength, which is also a natural choice.

However, for Shen Zhezi, he didn't care too much whether these people belonged or not. Because the Shen family has already passed the stage of relying on people's popularity to make a difference, the refuge of these people only makes the momentum more prominent, and the actual help is not great.

On the contrary, Shen Zhezi also needs to be wary of these people being too noisy, which will in turn affect his rhythm. For example, many people knocked on the side of the table and asked Shen Zhezi whether the decision of the Qing Jun's side was true, whether he already had a definite plan, whether he needed nominal support, and so on.

In this regard, Shen Zhezi can only sigh that history is constantly repeating, and taking history as a mirror is just a good thing to say, in fact, people are always making the same mistakes. How similar is this scene to Wang Dun's first rebellion!
