Chapter 884: This is how it should be
When Zhang Pu returned to the mansion, he was very unhappy, he thought that what he said was not wrong, the scholar must have backbone, and the Donglin Party needs to have backbone, how can he bend his waist for power, and the Donglin Party and Zheng Xunrui are incompatible, don't look at Zheng Xunrui who has not done it now, that is because he has just ascended the throne and called the emperor, and he will not do anything to the Donglin Party at present, once Zheng Xunrui's position as emperor is consolidated, I am afraid it is time to do it.
It's a pity that there are many things that Zhang Pu doesn't know.
As the leader of the Fushe, although on the surface it seems to be calling for wind and rain, especially after the Donglin Party and the Fushe, Yingshe and so on all moved from the south to the north, Zhang Pu's influence was greater, and he became the governor of Henan, so that Zhang Pu's prestige even exceeded that of Qian Qianyi, the leader of the Donglin Party, although Henan was occupied by the Liukou, Zhang Pu had to return to the capital, but he also used that time to meet with scholars many times, clarify his views and understanding, and won a lot of support.
But Zhang Pu didn't know that he had always been the target of exploitation.
When it comes to politics, Zhang Pu is by no means the opponent of Qian Shisheng and Hou Sui and others, let alone those who are officials in the DPRK and China, and it seems that the official position is not big, but it is the opponent of the real backbone of the Donglin Party.
Let's just say that in today's situation, Zheng Xunrui is already the emperor and has supreme power, what are you Zhang Pu, you can't count as ants in the eyes of others, in such a realistic situation, Zhang Pu is still thinking about confronting Zheng Xunrui and the imperial court, and is ready to gather many scholars to complain. You Zhang Pu don't want to live anymore, but people want to live a stable life.
After Zhang Pu left angrily, Qian Qianyi did not leave.
Qian Shisheng, Hou Sui and Qian Qianyi began to conspire for the interests of the Donglin Party and for their respective futures. They had to make a decision, Zhang Pu had become a great danger, and his every move was likely to affect the survival of the Donglin Party, so they had to make up their minds.
More than an hour later, Qian Qianyi also returned to the mansion.
Waiting in the mansion, only Wu Changshi.
Zhang Cai, Yang Yi and Gong Dingyu and others have an unusually good relationship with Zhang Pu, but this Wu Changshi is different. There is not much relationship with Zhang Pu, in fact, in the Restoration Society, Zhang Pu, as the leader, is quite arrogant, and he can see Zhang Cai, Yang Yi and Wu Weiye and others, for Wu Changshi and Gong Dingyu and others, they all regard themselves as seniors, and many times they speak in a tone of lessons, which will inevitably make Wu Changshi dissatisfied.
You must know that Wu Changshi is also one of the founders of the Fushe. People also have lofty ideals and pursuits in their hearts.
Wu Changshi was waiting in the study.
When he saw Wu Changshi, Qian Qianyi couldn't help but think of the results of his secret discussion with Qian Shisheng, Hou Sui and others. Qian Shisheng meant to let Wu Changshi be the leader of the Restoration Society, and slowly dilute Zhang Pu's influence, Hou Sui also meant this, Qian Qianyi thought that such an approach may not be effective, after all, Zhang Pu is the leader of the Restoration Society and has an unusual influence. Wu Changshi's qualifications were insufficient, and if he forcibly operated it, he was afraid that it would cause a large-scale backlash, and might even cause a split in the Fushe, and the Donglin Party would definitely suffer a heavy blow.
The meaning of Qian Qianyi. It was a decisive measure, he came forward as the leader of the Donglin Party, indicating that Zhang Pu's understanding was too extreme and not suitable to continue to be the leader of the Restoration Society, and when the time came, Qian Shisheng, Hou Sui and other pillars of the Donglin Party came forward to express their support, so that Zhang Pu could not continue to preside over the affairs of the Restoration Society, and then everyone recommended Wu Changshi as the leader of the Restoration Society.
Qian Shisheng and Hou Sui didn't particularly agree with Qian Qianyi's suggestion, they didn't want to show their heads in this matter, but the three of them discussed for more than half an hour, and they couldn't come up with a good solution, so they could only retreat and agree with Qian Qianyi's suggestion.
In fact, Qian Shisheng and Hou Sui and others still want to enter the imperial court as officials again, in their opinion, Zhang Pu is the biggest obstacle among them, Zheng Xunrui is just a bad relationship with Zhang Pu, they cleaned up Zhang Pu, and eased the relationship with Zheng Xunrui, as for the previous calculation of Zheng Xunrui, it was also because Zhang Pu provoked it.
"No, I've been waiting for you."
Seeing Qian Qianyi enter the study, Wu Changshi hurriedly stood up.
"The old gentleman is polite, the younger generation should wait."
When Qian Qianyi looked at Wu Chang, a smile appeared on his face.
"No, please come mainly about Tianru's affairs, today and today's words, it is really out of place, Zheng, this emperor has ascended the throne, and the world is slowly going to be peaceful, at such a moment, as a scholar, it is necessary to serve the country and contribute to the country, but Tianru is still thinking about the previous matters, for his own selfish interests, he actually asked many scholars to come, don't you know that everyone also needs to support their families, and they also need to live......"
When Qian Qianyi spoke, he kept paying attention to Wu Changshi's expression.
When Wu Changshi had an indignant look on his face, Qian Qianyi knew that the opportunity had come.
"Both Lord Qian and Lord Hou think that you are the most suitable person to be the leader of the Restoration Society, so I invite you to come and discuss and see what the Restoration Society should do next."
A smile flashed on Wu Changshi's face, how could he not understand the meaning, if he really became the leader of the Restoration Society, he would definitely get the attention of the imperial court, and it would be a matter of time before he entered the imperial court as an official, but at present, he is facing a big obstacle, that is, Zhang Pu, after all, Zhang Pu is the leader of the Restoration Society.
"The younger generation obeys the orders of Lord Qian, Lord Hou and the old man."
"Well, I think you should have more contact with Zhang Pu, and persuade Zhang Pu well, after all, you founded the Restoration Society at the same time, and you have been together as officials for so many years, and it will be much better if you say something to each other."
After leaving Qian Qianyi's mansion, Wu Changshi went to visit Qian Shisheng and Hou Sui.
The smart Wu Changshi finally figured out the reason, it turned out that everyone still wanted to be able to enter the court as an official, but Zhang Pu has become the biggest obstacle, for the sake of his personal future and the future of the Donglin Party, the current Donglin Party and the Restoration Society need to completely exclude Zhang Pu, otherwise everyone will be in danger, Zhang Pu is ready to go against the emperor and the court, this is looking for death.
Wu Changshi figured out the reason, did not waste time, and went directly to find Zhang Pu.
Zhang Pu, Zhang Cai, Yang Yi, Gong Dingyu and Wu Changshi are together all the year round, and they have a certain reputation in the imperial court, and everyone knows that the five are almost one, and it is for this reason that Wu Changshi wants to dissuade Zhang Pu, as long as Zhang Pu can change his original intention and bow his head at the right time, it will be beneficial to everyone.
This conversation made Wu Changshi's dissatisfaction with Zhang Pu completely explode.
Zhang Pu was like a child, unceremoniously taught Wu Changshi a lesson, and was also ready to come to teach Wu Changshi a lesson with Zhang Cai, Yang Yi and others, Zhang Pu, who was already depressed, did not care about Wu Changshi's feelings at all, and many excessive words were exported when he spoke, including Wu Changshi's submission to Li Zicheng, which was also said openly.
When he taught Wu Chang a lesson, when he saw that Wu Changshi was soft, Zhang Pu put up a shelf again, and told Wu Changshi the truth, what kind of scholar's style and bones are the most important, etc., don't be a person with soft bones, etc.
In terms of qualifications for the imperial examination, Zhang Pu is Chongzhen's four-year jinshi, and is awarded Shu Jishi, Wu Changshi is Chongzhen's seven-year jinshi, Zhang Pu is qualified to speak like this in front of Wu Changshi, but Zhang Pu just forgot one point, that is, Wu Changshi is also one of the founders of the Fushe, and the difference with Zhang Pu is not very big in this regard.
Wu Changshi temporarily relented, but he was worried that Zhang Pu would also say something unfavorable to him in front of Zhang Cai, Yang Yi and others, after all, in the plans of Qian Shisheng, Hou Sui, Qian Qianyi and others, he would be the future leader of the Restoration Society.
Zhang Pu's eloquent talk laid a fatal curse for himself.
People who are often used by others are always held very high, and gradually forget to be cautious, thinking that they are really the savior of the world, and that the world will not be able to turn without you.
Zhang Pu fell into such a cycle, and he didn't know it at all.
Five days later, Wu Changshi went to Zhang Pu's mansion to visit again, this time Wu Weiye brought wine and food, and also brought an article written by himself, of course, it was written according to Zhang Pu's meaning, that is, thank Zhang Pu for his reminder last time, and promise to follow Zhang Pu's words such as drumming and shouting for the world's readers.
After reading Wu Changshi's article, Zhang Pu was very happy, and immediately drank with Wu Changshi.
Wu Changshi left Zhang Pu's mansion late at night.
The next day, when Zhang Pu was found, he was already dead.
Zhang Pu's death still caused a slight shock in the capital, but the final conclusion was a violent death.
Why did they come to such a conclusion, no one can say clearly, Zhang Cai, Yang Yi and Gong Dingyu and others aimed their suspicious eyes at Qian Shisheng, Hou Sui and Qian Qianyi and others, but such suspicions are very ridiculous, after all, the identity of Qian Shisheng and others is not ordinary, and after the last negotiation, Zhang Pu and Qian Shisheng and others almost cut off contact.
Qian Shisheng and Hou Sui also felt strange, why did Zhang Pu, who was fine a few days ago, suddenly die violently.
The only one who knows the reason is Qian Qianyi, but Qian Qianyi will never say anything.
As the leader of the Restoration Society and the former governor of Henan in the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Pu died suddenly and violently, although there were some shocks, but soon calmed down, Zhang Cai, Yang Yi and Gong Dingyu and others, although they were in pain in their hearts, but they had no good way to find the truth.
Wu Changshi's performance was very calm, and he also expressed grief over Zhang Pu's death.
No one looked at Wu Changshi with suspicion, because Qian Shisheng and others did not continue to mention the matter of the leader of the Restoration Society, and no one would doubt Wu Changshi.
can only say that Zhang Pu's life should be like this. (To be continued.) )
