Chang Wei shook his head, "What is Donglin Point Record?"

Chang Tong took out a booklet from under the bookshelf, handed it to Chang Wei, and said: "Today, Wang Shaohui, the secretary of the ministry, imitates the "Water Margin" and compiles one hundred and eight people from the Donglin Party as "Donglin Point Generals". Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Chang Wei opened it and saw:

Six leaders of the Nanjing flood land:

The sky is damaged in the stars, the waves are white, and the Nanjing officials are in the Langzhong, Wang Xiangchun

Diying Star Tianmu will Nanjing Jiangxi Province Imperial History Chen Biqian

The ground enters the star out of the cave Jiao, Nanjing Shanxi Road, Yushi Huang Gongfu

The earth retreats from the stars, turning the mirage, Nanjing, Sichuan, and the imperial history is ten thousand words

The inferior star is alive and flashes in Nanjing, and Xu Xianqing is in the matter

"Xu Xianqing is also on the list, this point is indeed consistent with the one hundred and eight generals of the Water Margin. ”

After reading it, Chang Wei said sadly: "Wang Shaohui is the top boss of the eldest brother, this person is a eunuch, and the eldest brother is not at ease when he is the left servant of the ministry." ”

Chang Tong shook his hand and said: "Wang Shaohui was not a eunuch party, he was at odds with the Donglin Party in the Wanli Dynasty. Therefore, Wei Zhongxian used him as the secretary of the ministry to exclude dissidents, but now it must be a eunuch. ”

In fact, many Qingliu people also disdain to be with the Donglin Party, such as Lord Yuan Keli, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, who was just dismissed not long ago, Wei Zhongxian took a fancy to Lord Yuan's talent, and used him to preside over Liao affairs, and Lord Yuan reused the famous general Xiong Tingbi. ”

"Xiong Daren has a strong personality, and his relationship with his colleagues is very poor, and he scolds people when things don't go his way, no matter who he is, even if it is Yuan Keli, the secretary of the Ministry of War, he will scold correctly. ”

Therefore, he soon offended the Donglin Party, so the cabinet of the Donglin Party decided to remove Xiong Tingbi and send Yuan Yingtai, a member of the Donglin Party, to preside over the war in Liaodong. Yuan Yingtai was a good official and was very good in the Donglin Party, but he could not fight, so he fell to Shenyang and Liaoyang. ”

Afterwards, the Donglin Party secretly put the responsibility on Yuan Keli's head, causing Yuan Keli to be demoted to Nanjing. It was also because of this incident that the emperor thought that the Donglin Party was useless, so he let his henchman Wei Zhongxian take power. ”

"Wei Zhongxian took advantage of Liaodong to pass Xiong Tingbi's fall into Guangning, and he was unjustly imprisoned, and Xiong Tingbi was edicted, and Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others were killed. For a while, the Donglin Party was arrested and killed. Wei Zhongxian has the power inside and outside, known as 9,000 years old, and a group of shameless people have thrown themselves into his subordinates, willing to be his descendants and lackeys!"

Yuan Keli originally intended to exclude the party, strive for neutrality and do more practical things, and sympathize with Donglin, Wei Zhongxian hated him, ironically: some radical Donglin people often framed Lord Yuan. ”

Chang Tong said indignantly: "Third brother, do you understand? The Donglin Party adheres to the principle that either I am the enemy, and the party is the same as the other. Otherwise, why are the Qi Party, Chu Party, Zhejiang Party, and Xuan Party in the DPRK also not on good terms with Donglin? The reason for this is that the Eunuch Party is essentially the same as Donglin!"

Suddenly, he said: "No, it's different! Although the eunuch party is despicable and hateful, but they dare not frame the minister for no reason, after Lord Yuan was dismissed, the emperor felt the friendship of the emperor and the teacher, read Denglai's military exploits, and specially awarded the military department a book. Even Dongchang didn't dare to be disrespectful to Lord Yuan. However, the Donglin Party members actually colluded up and down to frame Lord Yuan, intending to ruin his reputation. Such villains are not even as good as eunuchs!"

Chang Wei was stunned, and all he heard in later generations was that the eunuch party deceived and deceived the superiors and the subordinates, and was full of evil; the Donglin Party was loyal to state affairs and was wronged and aggrieved. How could you have imagined that the reality could be so bizarre?

Chang agreed and said with a deep taste: "If it weren't for the terrible enemy of the Donglin Party, how could the parties give up power to the eunuch party? How could the emperor give Wei Zhongxian the national artifact? In the end, Wei Zhongxian's power comes from the emperor, don't look at Wei Eunuch's current power, from the vassal king's relatives to the peddlers' pawns, there is no one he dare not move, but as long as the emperor is not happy, a jailer can take his life. ”

Donglin, on the other hand, made a great reputation by forming a party in the opposition; in the DPRK, the party fought against differences, and often used private morality to determine the merits of people. This force is too huge, everyone is afraid, even the emperor is afraid, so Wei Zhongxian was instructed to contain the Donglin Party. ”

"The emperor has such mental skills? This doesn't match the rumors, right?" Chang Wei didn't believe that Zhu Youxiao was so clever.

Chang Tong shook his head and said: "To put it mildly, although it is more suitable to be a carpenter than to be an emperor, but this kind of thing is innate, and I have seen it since I was a child, as long as I am not an idiot, I will still know some." ”

After a long time, Chang Wei sighed, "It's too complicated, I'm really not suitable to be an official!"

"Hahaha!" Chang laughed at the same time, and Chang Wei laughed a little inexplicably.

"Third brother, you don't want to, but you can't. You can handle Wei Liangdong's methods, even an old fox who has been an official for decades can't use it. Chang Tong sighed again and again, "Third brother, you have the talent to be an official, but your interest is not in the official career." ”

Chang Wei thought for a while and said, "In this way, as long as the Qingliu Party is not an enemy of Wei Zhongxian, the Eunuch Party will not persecute them?

"That's good!" Chang Tong nodded appreciatively and said, "Otherwise, the eldest brother will not be able to sit firmly in the key position." ”

Chang Wei humbly asked: "Then Xu Xianqing, how to deal with Qian Qianyi's collusion with the traitor?"

Chang Tong asked in a condensed voice: "Did you accept Xu Xianqing's silver?"

"This, at that time, he said that he wanted to give the silver, but I didn't have time to see him in those days, so I didn't take the silver. Chang Wei looked at Chang Tong's face and said, "Second brother, it's not that I'm greedy for money, if I don't accept money, I'm afraid he will be uneasy." ”

"It's right, if you resolutely don't accept the money, I'm afraid that Xu Xianqing will be restless, but if you accept the money, it's better to swear than any gambling curse, and the paperwork is much more reassuring. Moreover, even if Xu Xianqing dares to fight back desperately and confess you, as long as you talk about greedy money, it won't be a big disaster!"

"Officialdom is more dangerous than the battlefield, it's just killing every step, and not collecting money is even more dangerous than collecting money!" Hearing the last sentence, Chang Wei broke out in a cold sweat.

At first glance, Chang Tong's words are very absurd, but in fact they are very reasonable, Xu Xianqing's small life is in Chang Wei's hands, if Chang Wei doesn't even accept the silver, then does it mean that Chang Wei will use the handle in his hand to kill him at any time? On the contrary, he accepted the silver, which shows that Chang Wei spared him at least because of greed for money.

If Xu Xianqing really goes crazy and wants to die with Chang Wei, and accuses Chang Wei of knowing that he is fornicating with thieves and conceals it and does not report it, then he can also be fooled by greed for money and bribery. If even the silver is confiscated, doesn't it mean that Chang Wei has evil intentions and wants to hide something for the thieves? It can even be said that Chang Wei is directly involved in the rebellion!

"Yes, it is indeed more dangerous not to collect money than to collect money, and some Qing officials have been impeached and lost their officials because they did not collect money!" Chang Tong shook his head and said: "Three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver." This is not a joke in the book, but a true portrayal. ”

Chang Wei understands this, everyone is an official in the same dynasty, and we all accept money and you don't accept any of them, what do you mean? Do you show that you are of high morals, or do you want to denounce us at any time, use us as stepping stones, and then climb to a higher position? If you don't impeach you, who will you impeach?

This is not a question of one person and one official, but a portrayal of the collective corruption and degeneration of the Ming officialdom.

After expressing his emotion, Chang Tong said solemnly: "So, you don't care about anything now, immediately rush back to Nanjing to collect the 600,000 taels of silver!"
