Chapter 701: Verbal Sword
Liang Kecheng said that he was entangled in things, but he insisted on walking with Chang Wei, and the four of them arrived in Hangzhou on the same day. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Seeing the huge welcome team led by Chu Yanming, Chang Wei secretly said, at least on the surface, Jin Gehui had already given himself enough face and showed enough sincerity.
"Brother Chu, I'm late!" Chang Wei smiled, stepped forward and grabbed Chu Yanming's hand, people who didn't know thought that the two really had a lot of friendship.
After greeting everyone, the two put their arms into the Jiang Garden. The banquet has already been arranged, but only Liang Kecheng and Chu Tongchen are accompanied, Yan Ruyu was also warmly entertained by the daughters of the Chu family, it seems that this is completely a family banquet to entertain friends, thinking that Chu Yanming does not want to cut into a serious topic at the beginning.
Chang Wei also asked about Chu Tiankuo's injury with concern, and Chu Yanming said that his father was fine, but he needed to retreat and concentrate on cultivation, so he could not preside over the affairs of the alliance, so he had to temporarily take over the position of the leader of the alliance.
"The lord of the Chu League, Jiren, has his own natural appearance, but it is a pity that he did not have the opportunity to greet his old man in person. ”
Hearing Chu Yanming's words, Chang Wei doubted his own judgment, could it be that Chu Tiankuo and his old father-in-law Tang Xingtian really fought with one move, and both were defeated? However, since it was said that Chu Tiankuo was in retreat, whether it was true or not, Chang Wei would not be able to see him this time.
took out a bottle of elixir and handed it to Chu Yanming: "This is the healing elixir of Zhongnan Mountain, one pill a day, for thirty days in a row, it may be helpful to the old alliance leader of Chu." As for your temporary acting as the leader of the alliance, I think it's logical, looking at the younger generation of the Jin Ge Society, who has the talent to learn and behave like you?"
"Wei Shao, your high hat is not easy to wear!" Chu Yanming said with a smile.
Chu Tongchen also said: "Wei Shao, let's talk about it today, don't talk about the Jin Ge Association and the Seven Seas Alliance, and don't talk about the Jiangnan Jiangbei martial arts, just talk about ......."
"You can't just talk about Fengyue!" Chang Wei said with a smile: "Although the pungency of the rouge in the north is completely different from the charm of the beauties in the south of the Yangtze River, however, I am cultivating my mind and temperament in the capital, and I am absolutely in the wind and moon, even if I want to say it, I can't say that I am ugly." ”
"Haha, Wei Shao came here again, I heard that you opened a Jiangnan residence in the capital, and the business was extremely hot, and the dignitaries flocked to it. After laughing, Chu Tongchen suddenly said, "By the way, what about the mustache you left?"
The daughter-in-law was so panicked that she had to cut it. ”
Several people laughed, and Chu Yanming said with emotion: "Wei Shao's words are true, which of us is not living for our parents, wives, children, and friends! Without relatives and friends, what is it like for people to live in the world!"
"Not really!" Liang Kecheng retorted: "In addition to family affection in this world, there is also the word 'right', isn't it because of these two words that the Tang brothers fought to the death? Officialdom is even more so! Not to mention anything else, just talking about this eight-character beard, Min Chengbi and Chen Qichang all have such a handful of beards, aren't their wives and little wives afraid of piercing?" said Chong Changwei and smiled: "We have just returned from the capital, and we are even more touching!"
"Lord Min and Governor Chen's Mansion are also in love, and the first thing to be an official is to be an official!"
"Why don't you value official authority?" Liang Kecheng pouted: "To put it bluntly, isn't it because they value power too much?! If you are like them, we still have to change our name to call you Grandpa Guo!"
Chang Wei glanced at Liang Kecheng and said, "Aren't you the same? ”
Chu Tongchen snorted and said, "Hehe, if you continue to talk like this, you won't have to eat this banquet." ”
"It's almost February now, and the imperial court has announced the change of the yuan during the New Year, and now it's the first year of Zhaowu, I don't know what important measures the imperial court has taken this year?" Chu Yanming chased after Chang Wei, and when Liang Kecheng and Chu Tongchen heard this, they all looked at it intently.
Chu Yanming's words were clearly asking the imperial court's actions, but in fact, they were asking Chang Wei's actions.
What is there to ask about the major affairs of the imperial court? Since last year, many measures have been forcibly started under the strong impetus of Chang Wei and his party.
The promulgated new policy has already pointed out: cutting down the feudal domain, rectifying the guards, recruiting troops, apportioning the land into acres, restructuring the industrial and commercial tax, setting up counties outside the city, pacifying the displaced people, exterminating the thieves, attacking the Houjin, and promoting new learning, new crops, new technologies, new machines, new weapons, new ships, and so on.
Chu Yanming's question was actually to ask Chang Wei about his actions this year, nominally Chang Wei's return to Jiangnan was the provincial situation, and the second was the case of the Shen family's private sale of machinery.
The provincial situation is to marry Tang Shuxue, this matter has been completed, and the next thing is the machine case, this matter not only affects the hearts of the entire Jiangnan people, but also a problem that the Jianghu people are concerned about.
His choice of direction completely represents the will of the emperor, and now Chang Wei has more than ten dazzling titles on his head, and he also controls powerful real power departments such as Jinyi Weibei Zhenfu Division, and his own world's best martial arts plus the huge power of officialdom, even if he destroys the powerful people like Jin Gehui, it is a trivial matter.
Such a situation is a nightmare for the quacks, unless they become his allies. And the key to preventing this situation from happening is how to make him lose the emperor's trust.
But as we all know, the emperor's trust in Chang Wei is beyond measure, the palace is casually entered, and all the music is accurate, almost to the point of obeying his words, under these appearances, what makes insiders even more frightened is that Chang Wei is the emperor's righteous brother!
In such a situation, who has the ability to break the trust of the emperor and Chang Wei?
Of course, the changes in the personnel of the imperial court are treacherous, and the parties are certainly 'not aware of the true face of Lushan, only because they are in this mountain', and outsiders are even more like seeing flowers in the fog, unable to figure it out, the emperor's heart is unpredictable, and there are ancient precepts.
The emperor had extreme trust in Chang Wei, but he did not give him great power that he could not control. Take a closer look at Chang Wei, although he has the titles of Qin Guogong, Sangu, Jinyi Weidu Commander, and Houjun Governor, etc., but these are all additions, they are fictitious titles, and they are official positions with empty reputation but no actual power.
In the wrestling with Wei Zhongxian, Chang Wei did not have any advantage!
Trust him and do not hand over the substantial, grasp the authority of the imperial court, this situation is the reason why the people of the rivers and lakes racked their brains and couldn't figure it out, they can only bet on the blind cat and the mouse, whether Chang Wei will become the king or defeat in the future is still difficult to say, after all, Wei Zhongxian's shadow has been shrouded in the sky of the Ming Dynasty for nearly ten years.
"Brother Chu, strictly speaking, I am not a Jianghu person, I am a scholar, the kind of scholar who is looking forward to 'Chao Wei Tian Shelang, Dusk Tianzi Hall'. Chang Wei deliberately paused to give the three of them time to think: "So, I won't make a living on the rivers and lakes, whether it's the Seven Seas Alliance, or the number one master in the world, all the actions so far are to pave the way for some things, well, if everything goes well, you will be able to see my phased purpose in another month or two." ”
The three of them were all thoughtful people, and they obviously understood Chang Wei's extraneous voice.
Liang Kecheng hurriedly said: "It is said that it will take nine months for the fleet to return to and from the American continent thousands of miles away, and Wei Shao's ocean-going fleet set off in June last year, and if everything goes well, it will come back in February, this is the purpose of the stage." ”
Chang Wei glanced at Liang Kecheng, nodded and smiled, "As we all know, before the first year of Zhaowu, the imperial court's Yulu was not enough to spend at all, and I was fined by the emperor for ten years, and I stepped into the officialdom for a year or two, and I haven't received a tael of silver from the imperial court." ”
Hearing this, everyone laughed, Chang Wei shook his head and said: "And I don't want to be greedy and pervert the law to absorb the people's fat and people's ointment, what should I do? I can only find a way to earn some silver by myself, but I don't want to earn the hard-earned money of ordinary workers and farmers, and I don't want to be a profiteer who sits on the ground and starts the price, so I can only gather the geniuses and skilled craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty, so there is the Zhenjiang Machinery Bureau, and then there is the Jingshi Machinery Bureau." ”
"With the machine there is the ability of mass production, the goods will be produced at a tenfold, hundredfold speed, with the goods need to be sold, these novelty goods not only need to be sold in the Ming Dynasty, but also need to be sold to overseas countries, to go far across the ocean, you need to deal with the navies and pirates of various countries, which requires a strong armed fleet, the fleet in the voyage, not only can earn high profits, but also can explore the unknown world, open up territory for my Ming Dynasty!"
Looking at the three of them, Chang Wei said slowly: "This is undoubtedly a temporary new road of accumulation or plundering wealth, and it is also the future world situation, these things are elaborated in the clumsy works "On Sea Power" and "On the Wealth of Nations". ”
"Far away, back to my old problem of the Ming Dynasty, the problem of the Ming Dynasty is that the merchants are rich enough to rival the country, and the treasury is poor, just imagine, the rich and the family have a huge amount of wealth, but they are not willing to give a little bit to the imperial court, with the weak financial capacity of the imperial court, how to resist the Houjin? How to exterminate the displaced people?"
"And once the court is overthrown and the dynasty is changed, whether it is the rich people in the south of the Yangtze River or the families in the north, they will be destroyed by the war. It is precisely in the purpose of saving the country and the world that I proposed one-tenth of the industrial and commercial tax, I have said these things here, and I have also said them in the imperial court, everyone understands the truth, I only hope that everyone will cooperate a little, and I will also calculate the account, although the machine produced by the machine bureau is expensive, but after using the machine, the efficiency and profit will be more than ten times the original. ”
"One-tenth of the industrial and commercial tax seems to be very heavy, but it turns out that it is more cost-effective to earn 10,000 taels a year and pay 10,000 taels of tax?"
Speaking of this, Chang Wei stood up, pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword, and said loudly: "I have said it a long time ago, and I am here today to reiterate it again: the wheel of history has been turning violently, and those who go according to the general trend of the world will prosper, and those who go against it will perish! No one can stop it!"
It has been a month since Chang Wei returned to Jiangnan before the martial arts conference, and in this month, except for the first time when he returned to Zhenjiang, Chang Wei said to the people about the golden age of industry, and almost never confided in any words to express his position. Whether it is to become the first in the world at the martial arts conference, or to suppress the Japanese, it is all taking advantage of the trend.
Now, Chang Wei has finally revealed the fangs of the ministers!
"We all understand if we move less, but everything has to be another process of adaptation, the so-called governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, and it is not a good thing to be too radical. Chu Tongchen's words impressed Chang Wei, Jin Gehui is really still talented.
"Everything must have a familiar process? That's right, you know better than me how deep the water in the south of the Yangtze River is, and according to your experience, how long does it take for you to understand the rivers and lakes?"
"It's going to take three or five years. Liang Kecheng snatched the words again, his attitude flickered left and right, making people really confused.
"Two or three years is enough!" Chu Tongchen is an old Jianghu after all, and he doesn't want to open his eyes and talk nonsense, nor dare to fool Chang Wei indiscriminately.
"Then make a compromise, the Jiangnan family, the giant businessmen, and the rich are very wise, and they should be able to turn a corner within three years, and they can also deal with the industry in hand. However, three years is not a long time, but it is not a short time, you can recall what the Donglin Party and Wei Gonggong did in the first three years of power. ”
The faces of the three of them were a little unnatural, and Liang Kecheng couldn't even breathe.
The most prominent record of the Donglin Party is to destroy the three powerful parties single-handedly, while Wei Zhongxian's record is to destroy the Donglin Party and take the power of the imperial court!
Others may not know the details of these things, but how can Liang Kecheng, who is a son of a family, not know?
After the death of Emperor Wanli, with the efforts of Yang Lian, the general of Donglin, Zhu Changluo ascended the throne as Emperor Mingguangzong of Taichang. Although he died after only one month as emperor, Yang Lian stepped forward again, joined forces with Wang Anli, fought to the death, put his son Zhu Youxiao on the throne, and finally took control of the government.
The Donglin Party can take power, relying on Yang Lian and the emperor's return. However, after the Donglin Party came to power, the three parties of Qi, Chu, and Zhejiang were still very strong, and there was still a long way to go if they wanted to govern the world completely according to their own ideas.
However, many members of the Donglin Party, holding the belief that 'those who are not of our race will have different hearts', they are extremely radical, and they have been fighting for decades since the Wanli period, and it can be said that they are the enemies of the Manchu Dynasty, especially the three parties, the predecessors retired, and the descendants took over, generation after generation, and the predecessors succeeded each other.
As long as it is an opportunity, as long as it is not one of their own people, they will immediately be classified into the ranks of the evil party, and they will not care about any government at all, they will just play in line, and use what means such as stealing books and Jingcha to kill them all!
Most of the Donglin Party members are from the Susong clan, there are many people, the wealth is strong, and they occupy an advantage, and the three parties are forced to form an alliance to jointly deal with the Donglin Party, so the difference in strength is not large, and no one can kill anyone for decades.
In the last years of Wanli, Wang Wenyan, a strange man, arrived in Beijing and joined the Donglin Party, so the balance of struggle tilted, and the Donglin Party completely defeated the three parties and took sole control of the government!
Wang Wenyan, a native of She County, the capital of Huizhou in Nanzhili, is not even a Xiucai, and he has not even entered the examination room, just a prison official!
A county in Daming only has a county order and a county official with a grade, and the rest of the officials are not officials, but they have power. Because, the county orders are all jinshi, lifting people, etc., and they will leave after working for a maximum of three years, and they have no foundation and do not want to manage relationships.
People put their minds on managing interpersonal relationships, and no one will put their energy into compiling a local relationship network, anyway, no matter how good you are, you will leave in three or two years, there is no need at all!
Therefore, the specific things are handled by the officials, these local snakes have held power for generations, like the Zhang family in Weishan County, which Chang Wei extinguished, has mastered the Xiazhen lock for more than a hundred years, and it has nothing to do with them how many emperors and officials change, this kind of land snake has a unique business trick, power in hand, corruption and bribery, deception and concealment, and life is more nourishing than the emperor.
Wang Wenyan is the best among the officials. As a prison official who is proficient in accepting bribes and taking black money, Wang Wenyan is unique, because he is righteous and squandering money, his reputation is great, his road is extremely wild, and his relationship network is very large.
But Wang Wenyan's ability is too great, he donated money to a prisoner, and when he turned around, he mixed into the Guozijian.
Wang Wenyan, who has obtained the identity, can't stop at all, up and down, left and right, in just one month, up to the officials of the six ministries, down to the students of Juzitai, all of them are all familiar, and then, they have become a man of the year in Beijing.
After the first step of the plan to be familiar and famous, Wang Wenyan immediately started the second step plan, making friends, Wang Wenyan's friend is Wang An!
Wang An is a eunuch and the personal eunuch of the crown prince Zhu Changluo, but this prince is too back, his mother is dead, his father is not waiting to see him, and even Wang An is very bad, but Wang Wenyan's vision is too poisonous, and he believes that Zhu Changluo will ascend the throne.
Therefore, Wang Wenyan tried his best to win over Wang An, and helped him handle all the big and small things, money and things, and what he lacked. This kind of strength naturally moved Wang An, a poor eunuch, who regarded Wang Wenyan as a brother and confidant.
A year later, on the night of July 21, the forty-eighth year of Wanli (1620), when Yang Lian secretly found Wang An, he said: Emperor Wanli is about to die, and immediately bring the crown prince into the palace to succeed him.
Wang An thinks: Without the emperor's edict, he did not dare to enter the palace without authorization.
Yang Lian said for a long time, Wang An just didn't dare to take Zhu Changluo into the palace.
At the critical moment, Wang Wenyan, who was regarded as a brother and confidant by Wang An, stood up, and he moved Wang An with only two sentences, so Wang An led Zhu Changluo to enter the palace without an edict and successfully ascended the throne.
On this night, Yang Lian, Wang An and even the new emperor Zhu Changluo all saw Wang Wenyan's insight, determination and eloquence, and then, the leaders of the Donglin Party, scholars Liu Yijing, Han Kuang, Shangshu Zhou Jiamo, and Yushi Zuo Guangdou all got acquainted with Wang Wenyan.
In this way, Wang Wenyan ascended to the sky one step and entered the center of the imperial court!
After that, Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne, Donglin continued to be in power, but the power of the three parties was still strong, the cabinet chief assistant Zhejiang party Fang Congzhe, Qi Party Qi Shijiao, Chu Party leader Ying Zhen, Wu Liangsi, are all veterans of the three dynasties, prestige, deep-rooted.
The boss of the three parties is the Zhejiang Party, which is good at forming gangs and factions, and there are party members all over the court and abroad; the members of the Qi Party and the Chu Party are basically speech officials, and they are either in the middle of the matter or in the imperial history, and they have great energy.
The Zhejiang Party is responsible for doing things, the Qi Party and the Chu Party are responsible for impeachment and scolding, the division of labor and cooperation, the momentum is huge, although the Donglin Party has the support of the emperor, but it cannot defeat them.
At this time, Wang Wenyan, a newcomer to the Donglin Party, made a move. Wang Wenyan was born as a prison official, low-key and able to do things, ruthless and scheming. Unlike the scholars of the Donglin Party, who can't tolerate sand in his eyes, his means are impeachment and scolding, and his method is to disintegrate the enemy from within.
Wang Wenyan's target is Mei Zhihuan!
Mei Zhihuan, born in Jinshi, points to Hanlin, and is in the middle of the office. This person was born in a famous family, both civil and military, and good at riding and shooting. Whether it is Dongchang or the Zhejiang Party, any big man dares to provoke, and it is quite strong.
But the reason why Wang Wenyan found this eldest brother is not because he is strong and has a sense of justice, but because of his origin.
Mei Zhihuan is a native of Huguang and has a lot to do with the Chu Party, but this person is the Donglin Party. After getting to know Mei Zhihuan, the opportunity came!
The imperial history of the Zhejiang Party saw that Lord Zhang Juzheng, who had been dead for many years, was not pleasing to the eye, and put forward the idea of opening the coffin and whipping the corpse!
Although Zhu Youxiao's idol, the emperor's grandfather, Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun, was very disgusted with Zhang Juzheng, Zhu Youxiao liked Zhang Juzheng very much, because Zhang Juzheng's reform benefited the Ming Dynasty.
So, the edict reprimanded the troublesome Zhejiang Party Imperial History, and the Donglin Party also took this opportunity to help the emperor angrily reprimand the Zhejiang Party, and even involved the other two parties, don't think that the Donglin Party is a good person, when opposing Zhang Juzheng, the Donglin Party was also the main force.
The reason why they jumped out to uphold justice is nothing more than the usual routine of the Donglin Party: Oppose for the sake of opposition, and who to impeach? It doesn't matter! As long as it is proposed by the three parties, it is wrong, and it is to be opposed! Purely treating people and not doing things is purely determined by standing in line and taking a stand!
Then, Mei Zhihuan, who was strong and full of a sense of justice, also jumped out to angrily denounce the Zhejiang Party, and then, the leader of the Chu Party, Ying Zhen, wrote a letter to support Mei Zhihuan! Because Mei Zhihuan was his good friend, and because Zhang Juzheng, who had been dead for many years, was also from Huguang.
Wang Wenyan, who was scheming and discerning, immediately seized the opportunity and met Guan Yingzhen through Mei Zhihuan, and then, in the name of the Donglin Party, supported Guan Yingzhen and the Chu Party with great fanfare.
As soon as things got into trouble, the Zhejiang Party was dumbfounded!
How could a good ironclad ally collude with Donglin? The angry Zhejiang Party began to accuse the Chu Party, and there were even rumors that the head of the cabinet, Fang Congzhe, wanted to drive Guan Yingzhen out of the imperial court.
This rumor is just a warning, and it is to use Fang Congzhe to threaten the Chu Party, telling them not to forget that everyone is an ally, and they should know their way back and stay away from the Donglin Party.
As soon as the rumor came out, another rumor also came: the Chu Party defected to the Donglin Party!
The reason is: The Chu Party was originally complaining about his fellow countryman Zhang Juzheng, and now he was threatened, so what else does it matter?
Finally, the Chu Party and the Zhejiang Party had an inseparable fight!
The things that came and went made a big fuss, and the Chu Party really defected to join Donglin, and the morale-like Donglin Party, under the leadership of the fighter Yang Lian, threw out the Red Pill Case and the Palace Removal Case, and the spearhead was directly aimed at Fang Congzhe and the Zhejiang Party. In the end, under the emperor's questioning, Fang Congzhe was forced to resign, and the Donglin party took full power.
It seems to be a righteous and bright struggle, but in fact the truth behind it is that Wang Wenyan threw out those two rumors! Just one co-opted and two rumors brought down the Zhejiang Party that had been in power for many years, and this was Wang Wenyan's skill!
Later, Yang Lian was promoted to the left deputy capital of the imperial history, Zhao Nanxing was appointed as the secretary of the ministry, Gao Panlong was appointed as Guanglu Cheng, Zou Yuanbiao was appointed as the left capital of the imperial history, and later the great hero Wang Wenyan was also promoted to the Zhongshu Sheren, and the Donglin Party took full power.
This is the secret of the Donglin Party's defeat of the three parties, relying only on a prison official! Relying on only a cloth cloth!
Controlling the world with a cloth body, Wang Wenyan deserves to be the think tank of the Donglin Party!
After the success, the Donglin Party became arrogant and arrogant, with no one in sight, arrogant and domineering. Yang Lian is like this, Zuo Guangdou is like this, and Zhao Nanxing is like this!
Especially Zhao Nanxing, he is the three leaders of the Donglin Party, and he is already the only spiritual leader of the Donglin Party during the Apocalypse, because Gu Xiancheng is dead, Zou Yuanbiao is old, Zhao Nanxing is not only the boss of the Donglin Party, but also the secretary of the ministry, the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty, and the actual controller of the imperial court.
In the third year of the Apocalypse, it was the year of Jingcha, that is, when the officials were inspected for their political achievements, and they were promoted with good results and dismissed from office if they did not achieve good results! Every time the imperial court's Jingcha was filled with injustice, revenge, and blood.
This time, Zhao Nanxing, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, was in charge of Jingcha, and he waved his pen with a big stroke: Qi Shijiao, Guan Yingzhen, Wu Liangsi, and Zhao Xingbang dismissed officials! That's right, these four people are the leaders and backbones of the three parties!
The question is, in the third year of the Apocalypse, the Donglin Party was in power, the three parties suffered heavy losses, and even many people had already joined the Donglin Party, was it necessary to kill them all?
Zhao Nanxing thinks it is necessary!
This is an extremely shameful and extremely shameless decision, you know, the Donglin Party is capable of overthrowing the Zhejiang Party, the key is that the Chu Party defects, and now you Zhao Nanxing are going to swing the butcher's knife at the friends who are fighting together?
From then on, the alliance front that Wang Wenyan had worked so hard to manage completely collapsed!
Zhao Nanxing not only dismissed the officials of the four people, but also wrote a famous "Theory of the Four Murderers", beating the four people as murderers, completely beating the three parties into the cage of the evil party, leaving a stench for 10,000 years, in order to show off his own and the achievements of the Donglin Party.
In addition to these four people, the rest of the members of the three parties are dismissed from office, and demoted by demoted!
The power is in hand, the world has been decided! From now on, the Donglin Party is invincible!
As a result, they began to propose to the emperor their own policy strategy: abolish all industrial and commercial taxes that compete with the people, and a package of frugal military spending on the Liaodong front!
Zhu Youxiao was furious, what the hell would the hell agree to this kind of nonsense plan? Are you an idiot? But at this time, His Majesty the Emperor's words didn't work at all, and as soon as the edict arrived in the cabinet, it was directly returned!
If you want to remove Ye Xianggao, the first assistant of the cabinet, from the Donglin Party? It is impossible! None of the six scholars agree! Not one of the six scholars agrees! No one in the court speaks for the emperor!
His Majesty the Emperor looked at it, and the whole court was full of people from the Donglin Party, and the folk academic circles were also studying and praising the knowledge and policies of the Donglin Party!
Just when he was mired in despair, the emperor found a fat man who was soft-spoken, kind-eyed, and kind like a Buddha - his name was Wei Zhongxian!
Wei Zhongxian, a native of Suning, Beizhili, once used the names Wei Jinzhong and Li Jinzhong.
Wei Zhongxian is a street gangster, a ruffian, a scoundrel in the market, although illiterate, but eloquent, cunning and bold.
The skill of making a living is gambling money, but the strange thing is that Wei Zhongxian's gambling skills are so bad that he even sells his daughter to creditors to pay off debts, and his angry wife runs away from home and remarries someone else. Wei Zhongxian, who had no way out, found a good job - to be a eunuch!
The Ming Emperor was generous, and the income as a eunuch was very high, and there were many people vying to be eunuchs in the Jingshi Shuntian Mansion and the nearby Hejian Mansion and even the entire Beizhili!
If you want to be a eunuch, you must first castrate, and the castration fee is five taels of silver, Wei Zhongxian's money is lost, so he can only be castrated by himself, but the palace does not accept him, because he is a big fat man of eighteen or nineteen years old, and people only need children under the age of thirteen.
In the sixteenth year of Wanli (1588), the destitute Wei Zhongxian found a job as a servant.
This was a turning point in its fate!
The owner of this house is called Sun Xian, and he is one of the most powerful people in the palace - the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch Bingbi. Wei Zhongxian is a scheming person, he gets up early and is greedy for darkness, works hard, gets Sun Xian's appreciation, and was able to enter the palace, even more fortunate Sun Xian is the top master, he saw Wei Zhongxian honest, passed on martial arts to him, the master of ceremonies is naturally not a big road martial arts, this martial arts is called - Sunflower Treasure Book!
Father-in-law Wei, who entered the palace, honestly swept the floor, fetched water, and washed the toilet every day for more than ten years, during which Wei Zhongxian practiced martial arts while working, because he was old, and he drank with people's calls, and people gave him the nickname "Wei Fool". In the eyes of everyone, Wei Zhongxian is a standard honest person, old, good character, loyal and honest, and bullied by others.
In addition to the fact that his martial arts were getting better and better, Wei Zhongxian got to know his nobleman Wei Chao. The Wei Dynasty promoted him to serve Wang Cairen, and her son was called Zhu Youxiao.
In the forty-seventh year of Wanli (1619), the forty-year-old Wei Zhongxian faced another turning point in his life, because Wang Cairen died, and Wei Zhongxian, who had no master, should have been getting worse and worse, but he became the eunuch of Li Xuanzhi with his superhuman city.
Li Xuanzhi was Zhu Youxiao's adoptive mother, a shrewd, selfish, and vicious woman, while Wei Zhongxian won her trust with his loyalty and ability.
In the forty-eighth year of Wanli (1620), the Wanli Emperor died, Zhu Changluo ascended the throne, Li Xuanzhi became a concubine, and in the fight for the queen's position, Zhu Youxiao became the prince. It's a pity that a month later, Zhu Changluo died again, and Li Xuanzhi fell out of favor.
The shrewd and vicious Li Xuanzhi and the cunning and deep Wei Zhongxian discussed, preparing to hold the young Zhu Youxiao in their hands, listen to the government, and control the world as the queen mother.
It is very unfortunate that the civil officials in the court also have this idea!
Under the leadership of the brave Yang Lian, Zhu Youxiao was snatched away, Li Xuanzhi was beaten into the cold palace, Wei Zhongxian was deliberate, and the plan that had been prepared for many years failed, and the person who defeated him was Yang Lian.
Even though Wei Zhongxian's martial arts are at the top, he doesn't dare to do anything in the face of Yang Lian, a scholar who doesn't know any martial arts! There is no way that some people are born strong, even if he has no power to restrain the chicken, even if he is alone, he is better than thousands of troops!
Yang Lian is such a strong man, he is not greedy for money, he is not lustful, he is tenacious, he is upright, he has almost no weaknesses, and no one wants to be his enemy!
At this point, Wei Zhongxian's future is basically over, and the forty or fifty-year-old Wei Gonggong has nothing else except for a superb martial arts, maybe he will go out of the palace to be a super master and wander the rivers and lakes, and be at ease?
I hate it!
Just when he was extremely lost, Wei Zhongxian saw hope in another woman, that woman was called Keyinyue!
As we all know, Zhu Youxiao is a very benevolent person, and after a month of succeeding to the throne, he rewarded many people in the Donglin Party. Before the Donglin Party, he named his nursing mother Yinyue as "Mrs. Fengsheng".
Wei Zhongxian knew Ke Yinyue, knew that there was an indescribable relationship between the emperor and her, and he knew that as long as he curried favor with this woman, he would have a chance to turn the tables, and for Wei Zhongxian, who was forty or fifty years old, Ke Yinyue was his last and only chance.
The way to please the guest Yinyue is to let her be her own wife, the eunuch's wife is called "right food", but the Hakka family has an object, and her object is the Wei Dynasty. To say that this palace is too chaotic, Ke Yinyue and the emperor have another leg, or the Wei Dynasty's rivalry, it's really impossible to say!
Wei Chao is a friend of Wei Zhongxian, and he also gave him a good job, and the relationship is quite good, the so-called "friend's wife, don't be bullied", but the old fat man Wei Zhongxian proved his shamelessness with his actions, and in the face of his friend's wife, he excavated without any psychological barriers.
The Wei Dynasty was a subordinate of the great eunuch Wang An, a eunuch in charge of the Qianqing Palace, and a powerful figure among the eunuchs. And Wei Zhongxian, an old fat man, is in charge of a broken warehouse, and the backer has fallen, and it is quite difficult to dig the foot of the wall.
But Wei Zhongxian, who has been a gangster and has been married and had a daughter, is very good at picking up girls, he can say with his mouth, coax the Hakka eyebrows and smile, and often give expensive gifts, inviting the Hakka to dinner is a table of sixty dishes, spending five hundred taels of silver.
Moreover, Wei Fatzi has strong martial arts and a strong body, and after practicing the Sunflower Treasure Book, that thing has grown, and he is a eunuch with a handle, and in the face of this advantage, Wei Chao is definitely not an opponent, and the Hakka family has successfully obtained it.
The beautiful and noble wife was gone, and the Wei Dynasty was quite angry, so they looked for Wei Zhongxian to theorize one night, and the two of them started to do it outside the warm pavilion of the Qianqing Palace!
Then, the Wei Dynasty was driven to Nanjing to guard the filial piety mausoleum, but on the way the Wei Dynasty was killed by Wei Zhongxian's men, and the person who drove the Wei Dynasty away was the great eunuch Wang An!
At that time, Wang An was the eldest among the eunuchs, and he said the same. Today's emperor is Wang An's help, the emperor's father is also Wang An's help, Donglin Party is his good friend, Wang An is also in charge of Dongchang, as a eunuch Wang An is already standing at the top of his life.
The scheming Wei Fatzi had long discovered Wang An's weakness - he liked to be flattered.
Wei Zhongxian's level of sycophants is extremely superb, he saw Wang An, he bowed his head without saying a word, kowtowed, and never talked nonsense, only said serious things with an extremely humble attitude, gave gifts behind his back, and pulled things to his home in a car. Therefore, when he found out that Wei Zhongxian and the Wei Dynasty were in conflict, Wang An immediately helped Wei Zhongxian drive away the Wei Dynasty.
Wang An never expected that the person Wei Zhongxian wanted to kill in the end was himself!
But it was almost impossible to kill Wang An, however, Wei Zhongxian succeeded!
In the first year of the Apocalypse (1620), the eunuch Lu Shou was deposed. Wang An is the head of the eunuchs of Bingbi, and the governor of Dongchang is the eldest of the eunuchs, but according to the system of the imperial court, the palm seal of the celebrant is the largest official position of the twenty-four eunuchs of the inner court, which is a balanced system, and the palm seal of the commander of the Dongchang and the palm seal of the celebrant are mutually restricted.
But at this time, Lu was guilty, and Wang An saw the opportunity, so he wanted to concurrently serve as the master of ceremonies. The master of ceremonies is in charge of the seal and the commander of the East Factory, which is equivalent to the first assistant of the cabinet and the commander of the Jinyi Guard in the imperial court!
What kind of existence is it for the person who holds the highest power to obtain the right of supervision? This is a completely unbalanced and unnatural existence!
Wang An went up and down and got a letter of appointment. As is customary, he wrote a note and excused himself. Everyone has done this throughout the ages, even the emperor has to do this when he ascends the throne, this is a procedure, otherwise, he will be blamed and impeached!
After Wang An's recital was handed over, the emperor replied: Agreed!
Wang An was immediately stupid, and his Donglin Party friends were also stupid, how could this be? Wasn't it just polite, and then the emperor pretended to persuade him, and then took office, and everyone was very happy!
Why didn't the emperor play his cards according to the routine? Why did he break the old procedure?
But this matter can't be managed by the Donglin Party, because this is a matter of the inner court, a matter in the forbidden palace, and the civil officials of the outer court can't manage it unless they have the power to defy the sky like Zhang Juzheng!
What frightened Wang An even more was that it didn't take long for the emperor to issue an edict: Wang An violated the ancestral system!
Then, he was driven to Nanjing Xiaolingwei and guarded the tomb of Zhu Yuanzhang!
The reason for this strange situation is that Wei Zhongxian asked the Ke family to help talk, and the emperor was looking for helpers!
The emperor wants to deal with the Donglin Party, then Wang An, a good friend of the Donglin Party, must get out, the emperor inspected Wei Zhongxian and thought that this was a good dog, so Wei Zhongxian took the throne, so Wang An died unexpectedly!
Since then, Wang Tiqian has served as the eunuch of the celebrant and the eunuch of the seal, and Wei Zhongxian has served as the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi and the eunuch of the commander of the East Factory, so far, Wei Zhongxian has finally climbed to the peak of his life!
Wei Zhongxian should be asked about the big and small matters of the harem, and one or two thousand eunuchs and palace maids should be under his control, the government and opposition officials Dongchang can supervise them, and the official documents handed over by the cabinet must be approved by the celebrant and supervisor.
Although Wei Zhongxian is illiterate, he has not delayed national affairs, and his Tu Wenfu and others will handle everything for him!
Satisfied! Finally experience the taste of power!
When Wei Fatzi was complacent, he found that he had just hit the road, because the real ruler of the empire was not Emperor Zhu Youxiao, but the Donglin Party!
Every time the cabinet is written, every time the Donglin Party is dismissed, the angry young emperor will be thrown to Wei Zhongxian to deal with!
With Wei Zhongxian's wisdom, he can naturally see how dissatisfied the emperor is with the Donglin party, if he can't see it, he is the next Wang An, and getting out of the way immediately is his best ending.
So, Wei Zhongxian began to act. But he didn't come hard, but sent people to contact Donglin dignitaries, such as Ye Xianggao, Zhao Nanxing, Liu Yijing, Zhou Jiamo, Yang Lian and others, saying that he had just taken office, please take care of him, and send gifts.
In public, he praised the cadres of the Donglin Party, and praised Zhao Nanxing in front of the emperor in a fake manner, however, Zhao Nanxing despised him very much!
The gifts sent to the door were all returned by the Donglin Party, and the door-to-door friendship was also driven out.
The first move was discovered, and Wei Zhongxian was furious! He was not only angry that the Donglin Party refused to cooperate, but more importantly, he lost face.
Wei Zhongxian was born in the market, and he has a high level of martial arts, and he is an out-and-out Jianghu person. Jianghu people can have no money, no power, no women, but they can't lose face!
The angry Wei Zhongxian decided to come hard! Unfortunately, he was not the opponent of the Donglin Party at all!
To deal with the Wei Dynasty and Wang An, just be ruthless and shameless, but the Donglin Party is different, these people are all born in Jinshi without exception, they are good at fighting in the court, fighting in the court, not relying on knives and guns, relying on the pen, scolding people with music, those allusions and scolding people are both good and catchy, the eighteenth generation of Wei Gonggong's ancestors was scolded again, he actually didn't understand, it was really extremely embarrassing, extremely embarrassing!
So, Wei Gonggong began to recruit troops to find dogs, successively Gu Bingqian, Wei Guangwei, Cui Chengxiu and others, as well as the remnants of the three parties who were persecuted by Donglin and had no way out, everyone took refuge either actively or passively, and finally made up a large number of people such as five tigers, five biao, ten dogs, ten children, forty grandchildren, and five hundred righteous grandchildren!
Moreover, Wei Guangwei, Ruan Dayue and others have defected to the eunuch party because of the infighting in Donglin!
With enough manpower, Wei Zhongxian shot at Donglin again, and this time he found a perfect breakthrough - Donglin think tank Wang Wenyan!
Wei Zhongxian's vision is very poisonous, and he grasped the key point as soon as he came up, and Wang Wenyan has a fatal weakness: he has no fame, his prestige is not high, he is very familiar with Donglin, with the three parties, and with many people in the eunuch party. often connects people with ordinary things, collects black money to make people, this kind of work is really a lot and familiar, and there are a lot of black materials.
Attacking this person is not only justifiable but will not attract the attention of the government and the opposition, and it can also defeat the Donglin Party, which is really perfect. The most important thing is that Wang Wenyan's backer Wang An is finished, and it is too easy to deal with this kind of person!
Soon, Wang Wenyan was stripped of his title as a prisoner and imprisoned, and what awaited him was horrific torture and death! However, to Wei Zhongxian's shock, Wang Wenyan turned around and was released from prison.
How is this possible?
Wei Zhongxian is a eunuch of the Eastern Factory, a eunuch with henchmen all over the world, and spies are scattered in all directions, but Wang Wenyan is nothing! How did he get out of prison? The most important thing is that Wang Wenyan was actually released from prison in name only, and he has a document of acquittal in his hand!
How did he do it? No one knew the answer, not even Tian Ergeng, who was in control of the Jinyi Guard!
After Wang Wenyan was released from prison, his reputation became even greater, and Zhao Nanxing, Zuo Guangdou, and Yang Lian personally visited him, and he truly became famous all over the world. Then, Ye Xiang, the first assistant of the cabinet, recommended Wang Wenyan as a member of the Zhongshu Sheren.
This is the official position in charge of confidential documents, the official is not big, but his hands and eyes are all over the sky, extremely important, ordinary people can't get it at all, Wang Wenyan is not even a showman, how can he sit in this position?
However, Wei Zhongxian acquiesced, because he knew that he had lost again, and he lost to Wang Wenyan and failed miserably!
So, in the next three years, Wei Zhongxian continued to squeeze out the Donglin Party, and constantly installed cronies in the court, his henchmen became more and more powerful, but he was still waiting, he knew that the Donglin Party was not terrible, what was terrible was Wang Wenyan, and he wanted to wait for the best opportunity to kill Wang Wenyan in one fell swoop.
In the fourth year of the Apocalypse (1624), a heaven-sent opportunity appeared!
Donglin infighting, Wei Zhongxian immediately took action as soon as he got the news, and let Ruan Dayue sit in the position given by the bureaucracy, Ruan Dacheng reciprocated, and wrote to impeach Wang Wenyan and Zuo Guangdou for colluding with each other and causing chaos in the government.
The battle begins!
The eunuchs rushed up and wrote letters to impeach the Donglin Party, and Donglin was naturally not to be outdone, and the court flew up and down.
At this time, Ye Xianggao, the first assistant of the cabinet, knew that there was a big trouble, so he wrote and said: Wang Wenyan was recommended by me, and I will take care of everything and ask for resignation!
In this way, the Donglin Party stopped scolding and retained, and the emperor was very embarrassed by the routine of retreating into advance, so he had to issue an edict to stop.
There was no way Wei Zhongxian had to endure it, and in the end, Wang Wenyan was closed, and Shoufu Ye Xianggao resigned. In June of the fourth year of the Apocalypse (1624), Yang Lian, the first fighter of the Donglin Party and the left deputy capital of Yushi, impeached Wei Zhongxian for the twenty-four major crimes.
In this famous essay in history, Yang Lian counted all kinds of sins of Wei Zhongxian, every word was beautiful, and every word was bloody.
Yang Lian also had no choice, because he knew that the imperial court at this time, from the cabinet to the six ministries, were all Wei Zhongxian's minions, and if he didn't fight back, he would have no chance, but I don't know if it was a coincidence or leaked the news, the emperor issued an edict to exempt the dynasty today.
Yang Lian, who had rich experience in the struggle, found that the situation was not good, so while presenting the song to the emperor, he was copied by others, and everyone heard about it in the streets and alleys. Even the Guozijian, the Hanlin Academy, officials from all over the country, and scholars wrote one after another, and the bullet stamps flew into the imperial court like snowflakes.
Yang Lian's prestige was too high, and the eunuch officials were also afraid, for fear of disaster to the pond fish, many people turned against the battle and turned around to impeach Wei Zhongxian.
Huang Zunsu, who learned of this, sighed, "Those on the side of the Qing monarch must have internal help, and Yang Gong has it?"
Yang Lian thought he had won and ignored this statement.
The emperor had long known about Yang Lian's badge, but he pretended to be confused and called Wei Zhongxian to ask, "I heard that someone impeached you, why?"
Although Wei Fatzi figured out the emperor's intention to deal with the Donglin Party, this time the matter was too big, and he did do a lot of evil, every charge on Yang Lian's bullet seal was true and credible, Wei Zhongxian was very afraid, he was afraid that the emperor would kill him.
Frightened, he lay at the emperor's feet and kowtowed and bled bitterly, crying bitterly, begging the emperor for forgiveness, while saying that it was all slander, please don't believe the slander!
Wei Fatzi underestimated the emperor's determination, although the emperor pushed Wei Zhongxian out to deal with the Donglin Party and hid in the harem to do carpenter work, however, he clearly knew that Wei Zhongxian could not be thrown out to take the blame this time, otherwise, there would be no such hard-working vicious dog in the future.
The Donglin Party must be brought down!
Although Yang Lian is a very good person, it is inevitable that someone will sacrifice under the general trend, and Yang Lian, the first cadre in Donglin, must be sacrificed!
So, the emperor made a very nonsensical decision, "What's the song?
This sentence made Wei Zhongxian stunned for a while, and then, his heart was ecstatic. Because of Yang Lian's performance, there are capital crimes such as persecuting the queen, even killing a pregnant concubine, and privately training soldiers and horses to plot misdeeds.
This is also the reason why the emperor is reluctant to see it himself, there is a contradiction with the queen, it was Ke Yinyue who killed the concubine, Wei Fatzi is just an accomplice, otherwise, he would not dare to give him ten guts, there is indeed such a thing as training soldiers and horses, but it is Wei Fatzi in order to defend himself, after all, he has so many enemies, and what he is trying to do is that the dogs shouted out the title of "nine thousand years old" in private, and this emperor doesn't care.
So, Tu Wenfu, another eunuch who was a henchman of Wei Fatzi, picked up some charges of corruption and bribery and squeezing out his colleagues, and listened to the emperor's big hand wave, "Okay, that's all there is to it? Old Wei, you do yours, don't deceive me." ”
Anyway, turn around and go to do carpenter work, so far, Yang Lian was completely defeated, the Donglin Party is also finished, in October of the fourth year of the Apocalypse, the limelight has completely passed, the emperor suddenly issued an edict to reprimand Zhao Nanxing, the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu, for forming a party for personal gain, and then the emperor has issued an edict, one by one to reprimand Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, Gao Panlong and others, and finally, the spearhead is directed at the Donglin Party.
As a result, Zhao Nanxing, Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others resigned one after another and went home, and the Donglin Party collapsed.
The Donglin Party thought that if they left the imperial court, the matter would be over, but Wei Zhongxian came to kill them all, Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, and Wei Dazhong were exiled to death, and so far, Wei Zhongxian was completely in charge of the cabinet and the imperial court......
Since Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne, the swords and swords in the court, the open and secret battles have almost reached an extreme point, although the Donglin Party has taken the lead, but before they have time to taste the fruits of victory, they were knocked to the ground by Wei Zhongxian with a few sticks, and it is difficult to turn over.
The reason why Wei Zhongxian was able to defeat the Donglin Party and control the authority of the imperial court was that everyone knew that the emperor was behind him, in all fairness, the relationship between the Donglin Party and the emperor was good, and the fault was that they were enemies of the imperial power!
So, it ended up in a stormy end, this is the emperor's power!
And Chang Wei also implicitly threatened the three of them, although he had not been in power for a long time, but once he did not care about the consequences, he used crazy means, and on the premise of having the emperor's support, he was equally capable of eradicating all enemies.
"Three years is enough for the Donglin Party to eradicate the three parties, and it is enough for Wei Zhongxian to eradicate the Donglin Party, and even the situation in the imperial court can be changed in three years, not to mention the family property and family business?
Chang Wei knew that it was enough for them to understand the true meaning of their words in their hearts, and the face still had to be given to these three people, or the Jiangnan family.
"The three of you can probably imagine how much effort I put in, how many people I used, and how much cost the princes of the court paid for the new policy. In fact, Yuan Gelao, Wang Bulang and others and I are all blocked with our net worth, and the lives of hundreds of people!"
"Of course, the emperor and the imperial court also gave us great support, and everyone cooperated with each other to implement the new policy rapidly. Last year, the imperial court's financial revenue reached hundreds of millions, which was an unprecedented achievement. The emperor and the princes of the imperial court, as well as the duke of Wei, including myself, will absolutely not allow anyone to sabotage or obstruct the implementation of the new policy!"
Chang Wei looked at the three people who were in deep thought, paused, and said with a smile: "If I adopt an iron-blooded path, or if everyone does not cooperate, what kind of scene will Jiangnan be in the future? Of course, this also includes the situation in the rivers and lakes!"
Wei Shao went around and around, but he still put the topic on Jiangnan and Jiangbei martial arts. Chu Yanming smiled: "It seems that if you don't talk about the rivers and lakes today, you can't spare me!"
Everyone laughed.
"To tell you the truth, although Uncle Tongguang's words have not been approved by our alliance, my thoughts are similar to those of my uncle. Chu Yanming said openly and honestly: "This is absolutely not aimed at Wei Shaoyou, on the contrary, you have not publicly expressed your position for a long time, I thought that you were not ready to use the forces of the rivers and lakes to suppress the Japanese, but you were afraid of your own identity and didn't want to say more, my uncle's original intention was to find you a step, but the kindness did the wrong thing, but now the alliance is difficult to ride a tiger!"
"I admit it, I think about the matter of suppressing the widows is simple, after all, I should open the moon in advance, but ......" Chang Wei groaned and stopped talking.
Chu Yanming almost absolved Jin Gehui of his responsibilities with one sentence, thinking that he had already studied the countermeasures, and his reasons were quite unexpected.
In fact, because it takes time for the news to be transmitted, Jin Gehui has every reason to say that Chu Tongguang did not know that Chang Wei had counted the forces of the rivers and lakes in the plan to suppress the Japanese before he made the remarks of the Jiangnan Martial Arts Alliance that he did not need to scruple about suppressing the Japanese.
A look of surprise flashed in Chu Tongchen's eyes, obviously it was the first time he had heard Chu Yanming's words. He opened his mouth several times to speak, but swallowed it back several times.
"What's so difficult to ride a tiger!" Liang Kecheng once again swayed to Chang Wei's position, and said disdainfully: "Uncle Tongguang is just his personal opinion, what's the matter? The two fairies of the ethereal Lou and Yu are also supporting and opposing each other, and I don't see any embarrassment from others." ”
"Lou and Yu have their own words, and the people in the whole world naturally understand that it is their personal opinion, and it has nothing to do with the position of the ethereal, what kind of attitude is the ethereal, and finally have to wait for the head of the smoke to make a decision, whether it is for support or opposition, it will not damage the reputation of the ethereal. ”
"Our Jin Ge will be different, originally the third uncle's opinion of the alliance was being studied--to put it bluntly, I wanted to figure out Wei Shao's thoughts--but the main force of the Tang Sect suddenly entered the sphere of influence of the alliance, and the focus of the alliance shifted to the Tang Gate, and the result was not only a misunderstanding with the Tang Sect that injured my father, but also delayed the opportunity to deal with the third uncle's remarks -- the news that Wei Shao was going to collect the power of the rivers and lakes then spread to the ground, and the people in the rivers and lakes who did not know the truth saw that no one in the alliance came forward to clarify the words of the third uncle, and they must have thought that the opinion of the third uncle was the opinion of the alliance, and the alliance wanted to sing against Wei Shao。 ”
Chu Yanming smiled bitterly and said: "Although the alliance was unjustly killed, but now that we change our ways, what will be the face of the third uncle?
I thought that Chu Yanming's foreshadowing was to find a step for Jin Gehui, not to mention, Chang Wei thought that he would go to Hangzhou in person to give Jin Ge enough face, but he didn't expect that he still insisted on his own point of view and didn't give himself face at all!
This is openly against Chang Wei? The words have already been said for the sake of the overall situation of the imperial court, is this the meaning of the Jiangnan family, they are determined to give a new policy, to oppose the imperial court, and to oppose the emperor? !
Chang Wei suppressed his anger and said with a smile: "This is indeed no wonder Third Master Chu. However, the Jin Ge Society should get the news that I am going to recruit the forces of the rivers and lakes. ”
Chu Tongguang said with a smile: "Don't talk about the Jin Ge Society, even I have heard about it personally, but Wei Shao, at present, Jiangnan and Jiangbei martial arts are opposed, and the war is about to break out. ”
He looked at Chang Wei with blazing eyes and said, "Wei Shao, I don't want to see this kind of result!"
"Of course!"
Chang Wei showed a bright smile on his face, "Therefore, I will also convene Jiangbei martial arts figures to contribute to the country, and everyone is not divided into each other!"
