Holding the letter in his hand, Zheng Xunrui thought for a long time, he never imagined that Wen Tiren actually wrote a letter to him when he was forced to send a letter, and Wen Tiren's family said that this was the only letter Wen Tiren wrote.

This letter is full of Wen Tiren's sincere words, and many of the things he said are also top secret, and Wen Tiren even directly commented on the emperor in the letter, which made Zheng Xunrui extremely surprised.

Wen Tiren was forced to send a letter to Shi, according to the analysis of the reasons in the letter, I am afraid that I will offend the eunuchs, especially the eunuchs in power of the celebrant eunuch, otherwise other things will not lead to the decision to come so quickly, as for the reason for the offense, it is also because of Lu Xiangsheng's matter, Wen Tiren is unwilling to let Lu Xiangsheng bear the responsibility for the defeat of the army, and wants to supervise the army Gao Qiqian to take responsibility, but Gao Qiqian has already prepared, and found Cao Huachun, the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch and the commander of the Jingying, this matter was discovered by Wen Tiren, So he impeached Gao Qiqian and Cao Huachun, and later Wen Tiren found that the emperor did not adopt his impeachment opinion.

But Wen Tiren would never have imagined that Cao Huachun actually knew about this matter, so it can be explained why the emperor deposed Wen Tiren without any warning.

Wen Tiren's evaluation of the emperor is pertinent, and bluntly pointed out the shortcomings of the emperor, that is, he does not trust the civil official group, reuses eunuchs to check and balance civil officials, likes to play balance in the court, and can not make decisions when encountering things, once faced with a critical situation, he seems helpless, or even retreats, and when the situation is slightly better, he can't hold his breath and shows his complacency.

Wen Tiren's most powerful evaluation is that the emperor's ability is obviously insufficient and capricious. I don't dare to really trust the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, and I can't even compare to the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse reused Wei Zhongxian and used Wei Zhongxian to control the government and balance the civil and official groups. This is a disgraceful move, but the Emperor of the Apocalypse is able to control the overall situation, can predict the situation of the imperial court, and can ensure the stability of the imperial court despite the lack of time in the imperial court. The emperor can't do this, although the emperor is extremely diligent, it can be said that he is exhausted, but unfortunately there is not much change in the Ming Dynasty at all, the chaos of the rogues, the invasion of the Houjin, the famine for many years, the treasury is unable to make ends meet, and more and more problems make it difficult for the government to maintain normally.

Wen Tiren's evaluation of the Donglin Party members is that there is not enough success and more than failure.

Of course, Wen Tiren also commented on the Zhejiang Party. It is believed that there are fewer and fewer people in the Zhejiang Party who are willing to do things, and there are more and more people who are vying for power and profit, and tending to become inflammatory.

After reading Wen Tiren's letter, Zheng Xunrui had too much emotion.

The evaluation of Wen Tiren in history is very bad, and the history of the Ming Dynasty lists it as a traitor along with Zhou Yanru, but it is a history book compiled by the Donglin Party, which is not worth learning from, but the reputation of the traitor has always been with Wen Tiren.

Traveling to the Chongzhen period, Zheng Xunrui really realized. Many things are completely different from the descriptions in the history books, and they are simply upside-down changes, the most obvious is the Donglin Party, you must know that as long as it is the official history. The Donglin Party is highly evaluated, believing that the Donglin Party people are not afraid of the powerful, for the country and the people, fighting against the eunuch party, and caring about the rise and fall of the world, a large number of Donglin party members are running for the interests of the people. Even gave his life.

The actual situation is just the opposite, the Donglin Party and the businessmen colluded, controlled the government, regardless of the life and death of the people, although the Donglin Party, there are also outstanding talents, but the entire Donglin Party, the purpose of the deviation, they are not only the same party to fight differences, but also desperately safeguard the interests of the businessmen and themselves, has reached the point of unscrupulous means.

What's even more sad is that many Donglin Party members always think that they are the embodiment of justice, and when they do bad things, they are not ashamed to speak up, and they can also say a big truth, which makes others embarrassed.

At this time, Zheng Xunrui finally understood a truth, the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty was not the Houjin Tartars, let alone the rogues, but those sanctimonious scholars, as well as greedy scholars and merchants.

Wen Tiren's letter allowed Zheng Xunrui to analyze the current situation of the Ming Dynasty more clearly, and also allowed him to constantly adjust the direction of doing things.

It was also from this letter that Zheng Xunrui had a completely different view of Wen Tiren, because at the end of the letter, Wen Tiren said something he had never thought of.

Wen Tiren was forced to give office, cabinet minister Zhang Zhifa was appointed as the first assistant of the cabinet, not the second assistant of the cabinet Zhang Fengyi took over, in terms of ability, Zhang Zhifa did not have excellent ability and ability at all, and it was unqualified to serve as the first assistant of the cabinet, Wen Tiren knew Zhang Zhifa's ability very well, and thought that the emperor's choice was a big failure.

Looking at the situation in previous years, once the Liukou rose on a large scale, the Houjin Tartars would seize the opportunity to enter the customs and plunder, this double blow, the imperial court could not bear it at all, and now it is possible to face such a situation, at this time, it is very critical to let a capable person serve as the first assistant of the cabinet.

Wen Tiren also revealed that he was worried that Zhang Zhifa's appointment as the first assistant to the cabinet was very likely to allow Qian Shisheng and others to influence the situation in the cabinet.

Wen Tiren analyzed that the reason why the emperor did not let Zhang Fengyi serve as the first assistant to the cabinet may have a certain relationship with the Donglin Party.

Wen Tiren suggested that Zheng Xunrui recommend Zhou Yanru as the first assistant of the cabinet, under the current situation, only Zhou Yanru as the first assistant of the cabinet can stabilize the situation, in terms of ability, Zhou Yanru is very good, but he likes money.

Wen Tiren also revealed that in fact, the emperor misses Zhou Yanru a little, and sometimes he will talk about it.

Wen Tiren's suggestion made Zheng Xunrui unthinkable no matter what.

Wen Tiren and Zhou Yanru are opponents, when Chongzhen was six years old, the contradiction between the two reached its peak, Wen Tiren squeezed out Zhou Yanru, I didn't expect that at this time, Wen Tiren actually affirmed Zhou Yanru's ability, thinking that only Zhou Yanru can be qualified for the position of first assistant to the cabinet.

When Xu Wanghua and Zheng Jinhong entered the Donglin Book House, Zheng Xunrui's face was very grim.

He handed Wen Tiren's letter to Xu Wanghua.

"Mr. Xu, this is a letter from Lord Wen Tiren, many things in the letter are top secrets in the imperial court, and they can't be leaked, after you read it, tell your thoughts."

Xu Wanghua read the letter and handed it to Zheng Jinhong.

Zheng Jinhong's face was a little red, although he had followed Zheng Xunrui over the years and learned a lot of knowledge, but when it came to knowledge, he was still far behind.

"Jinhong, take a closer look at the letter from Master Wen, you will always have to be alone in the future, what you should learn, you still have to learn more, increase your own knowledge, and be able to better analyze and judge things."

After Xu Wanghua read the letter, he did not speak immediately, but fell into deep thought.

Zheng Xunrui did not urge, and waited quietly.

Zheng Jinhong was trying to look at the letter, and his face was also very grim.

A quarter of an hour later, Xu Wanghua finally spoke.

"My lord, my subordinates think that the meaning of Lord Wen's letter is to let my lord recommend Lord Zhou Yanru, all the rhetoric is to serve this matter, and my subordinates think that Lord Wen's suggestion is good, under the current situation, no one in the court will recommend Lord Zhou, if the lord comes forward to recommend, it will definitely be effective."

"However, the subordinates believe that it is not suitable to recommend for the time being, Lord Zhang Zhifa is the first assistant of the cabinet, what the situation is, it is unknown, no matter what the ability of Lord Zhang is, it always takes a period of time before it can be reflected, adults may wish to wait and see, see if Lord Zhang is not good, at that time to recommend, it will be much smoother."

"If there is really a problem in the court, Lord Zhou will face a lot of problems when he takes office, and his subordinates are most worried about one thing, that is, the Donglin Party may take this opportunity to control the government, if it really allows the Donglin Party to control the government again, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the adults."

"Everything has its own pros and cons, and my subordinates think that it is better to wait and wait and see what happens."

Zheng Jinhong, who was on the side, also nodded frequently and agreed with Xu Wanghua's suggestion.

A smile appeared on Zheng Xunrui's face.

"Mr. Xu's suggestion is very good, I also think so, Zhang Zhifa is the first assistant of the cabinet, the problem must exist, over the years, in the cabinet, can really play a role, that is, Lord Wen, Lord Zhang Fengyi, Lord Yang Yipeng, as well as Qian Shisheng and Hou Xun and others, Zhang Zhifa is mostly unknown, which also shows that Zhang Zhifa's ability is indeed average, Lord Wen's letter, revealed that he is worried about the rise of the Donglin Party, I think it doesn't matter, Let's see what the Donglin Party can do. ”

"As for saying that the Donglin Party wants to deal with me, I'm afraid it's not that simple, just relying on their few mouths, thinking that they can make me submit, that's too naïve."

"The only thing I'm worried about is Lord Zhou Yanru's attitude towards the Donglin Party, from what we know, Lord Zhou's understanding of the Donglin Party is still good, and he has been in contact with many Donglin Party members for many years of living at home, and even has a lot of contact with Qian Qianyi and others."

"It's still Mr. Xu's words well, wait and see what happens, whether it is Lord Zhang Zhifa as the first assistant of the cabinet, or Lord Zhou Yanru as the first assistant of the cabinet, we must pay close attention to the changes in the situation, our most important responsibility is to strengthen our own strength, as long as we have enough strength, there is no fear."
