Chapter 93: The next method

Ma Cheng sighed when he heard Ruan Dacheng say this, and had no choice but to say: "Uncle, the biggest difference between you and the Donglin Party is your name!"

When Ruan Dacheng heard that this was nothing, who is not good at fame in this world? Why is Ruan Dacheng trying hard to organize opera? Isn’t it just for a fame?

Ma Cheng knew that the old guy didn't understand Ruan Dacheng's appearance, so he had no choice but to explain: "Uncle, the name that the Donglin Party needs is different from yours! You are already a eunuch party, and your name is not bad, but the Donglin Party is different. They still need to be named after you!"

Ma Cheng pointed at the monk and scolded the bald donkey Ruan Dacheng so much that he didn't jump up, but Ma Cheng quickly said, "Uncle, since the Donglin Party needs the reputation of celebrities in Qing Dynasty, then let's destroy their expectations and let people in the world see what these Donglin Party are."

Ruan Dacheng thought about it, which was a good idea. The guys of the Donglin Party claimed to be righteous. If they could expose their hypocritical masks to the point where they could be ruined. However, this kind of thing took time, and Ruan Dacheng wanted to kill the Donglin Party now, so that they could continue to wait there.

"Nephew, this plan is feasible, but it takes time. Your father and I can't afford to wait!"

When Ma Cheng heard Ruan Dacheng say this, he couldn't help but curse himself. Why did he rely on time to do something? Can't he just start scolding?

"Uncle, do you think this is OK? When you go to court tomorrow, you can directly fire Zhang Shenyan, such as cutting off ashes and steaming your mother, bullying your brother and robbing your sister-in-law, and writing everything for him. Then you will find several ministers to curse Zhang Shenyan at the court meeting. I don't believe that, then Zhang Shenyan still has the face to stay in the court?"

Ruan Dacheng's face turned green when he heard Ma Cheng's despicable tricks. This Ma Cheng was too unkind, and he could think of such an immoral method. However, Ruan Dacheng thought about it and thought it was a good idea. Zhang Shenyan was a great Confucian scholar. If he really wanted to make something to tear off the ground, he would be really ruined.

Ruan Dacheng asked hesitantly: "But nephew, this kind of thing is a private matter. I can't make a guess out of thin air without evidence."

"Oh, uncle, this kind of thing is originally a splash of dirty water, so what evidence is there? Uncle, you are an opera artist, don't need to teach me these things. In addition to these, some secrets of the Donglin Party generals, what stories Zhang Shenyan and his daughter-in-law have to tell! Gao Hongtu and his sister-in-law practiced the old man pushing carts, Guanyin grinding mirrors! Lu Daqi's younger brother was born to steam his mother back then! People are most interested in this thing. As long as it spreads, my nephew doesn't believe that those serious people can still have the face to stay?" (Don't think that this is my improper work. In history, Ruan Dacheng used the matter of removing dust to drive Jiang Yueguang back to his hometown. As for whether it is true, I don't know!)

Ruan Dacheng was so excited that he saw Ma Cheng's words that he was so excited that he was in an alliance with this guy's father, and he didn't know how to arrange himself by following this guy's means.

Ma Cheng became happier and happier the more he spoke, and he couldn't help but tell the plot of later Japanese romance action movies, such as brother and sister, incompetence, adopted mother, husband, imprisonment, guard, etc. When he heard the veteran Huazhong, Ruan Dacheng was stunned. In the end, Ruan Dacheng couldn't listen anymore and interrupted Ma Cheng and said, "Okay, OK, this is enough for nephew!"

Ma Cheng was very unhappy when he was interrupted, but Ruan Dacheng was also his uncle after all, so Ma Cheng calmed down and bowed and said, "Uncle, do you think this is feasible?"

What else can Ruan Dacheng say? Not to mention the Donglin Party, who is a Qingliu Party, even Ruan Dacheng, who is a eunuch Party, is embarrassed to continue working. After all, Ruan Dacheng is still shameless.

"I have a good method for nephew. I have contacted officials these days and launched an attack on Donglin during the court meeting!"

Ma Cheng heard Ruan Dacheng say this and bowed, "Since that's the case, I'm waiting for the good news from my uncle!" After that, Ma Cheng went out to find the officials of the Ministry of War to get the weapons and tell me.

Although Ruan Dacheng sat in the room, he felt that Ma Cheng's idea was dirty, the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more he was. The people in the Donglin Party all claimed to be righteous and gentlemen. In the past, they bullied themselves from a moral high point, but now they used poison to fight poison and let Shilin see what their virtues were.

Thinking of this, Ruan Dacheng picked up the paper and pen and wrote quickly. In addition to preparing the memorial for the meeting in a few days, he also had to write letters to several friends so that they could pick up their brothers at critical moments.

Ruan Dacheng was born in Donglin and stayed in Shilin, Nanzhili for many years. Although his character is not very good, there are still a few friends, such as the former Sichuan Governor Tian Yang, the current Minister of Revenue Zhang Youyu, the Shandong Governor Guo Jingchang, etc. These officials were either unsuccessful criminal officials, or the eunuch party who was demoted for the rebellion in the first year of Chongzhen, or the non-Donglin party officials who were not well-off in Nanjing. These people are potential opponents of the Donglin party, but Ma Shiying is an outsider and doesn't know these people.

However, Ruan Dacheng is different. Ruan Dacheng was born in Nanzhili and was promoted to the juren in Nanzhili. He was dismissed from office and lived in Nanzhili for more than ten years, so he knew the details of the Donglin Party. Ma Shiying released Ruan Dacheng because he was interested in this and could win over some officials against the Donglin Party.

Ruan Dacheng wrote several letters and met several best friends, and finally started on June 26th.

The 26th court meeting was originally very simple. The emperor wanted to discuss the amount of food and salary for the officers and soldiers in Jiangbei with the court officials. Knowing that the Minister of Revenue Gao Hongtu had not spoken yet, the sincere uncle Liu Kongzhao was the first to stand up and fire.

Liu Kongzhao was originally a nobleman and was not qualified to speak on this occasion, but Liu Kongzhao was the first among the nobles to stand up to support Zhu Yousong as the emperor, so he was very important in the emperor's mind. In addition, Liu Kongzhao is now the Admiral of Caojiang, so he was qualified to speak at the cabinet meeting.

Liu Kongzhao targeted Zhang Shenyan, the boss of the Donglin Party. Liu Kongzhao said it very simply. Now that Beijing is in the hands of a thief, most of the doctors in the north surrendered to Li Zicheng, and now they have turned to the Qing Dynasty. Who are these people? They are all your Donglin Party! Zhang Shenyan, as the boss of the Donglin Party, are you not responsible? Also, you, Zhang Shenyan, was born in the fifth year of Wanli and is now 69 years old. You are still in love with power and position and do not go. What do you want to do? Do you want to be Yan Song?

Although Liu Kongzhao was not very educated, the big scolding was completely cursed by Zhang Shenyan. The scolding made Zhang Shenyan's eyes turn black, and he was so hungry that he was not dead on the spot.

Of course, although Liu Kongzhao scolded him very much, he had no effect on the Donglin Party. Everyone is an official, and the skin is gone decades ago, so the people of the Donglin Party didn't take it much to heart.

But the next step was a bit dramatic. After Liu Kongzhao finished speaking, the other ministers had not spoken yet, and the emperor Zhu Yousong, who was sitting at the top, spoke.

"Mr. Zhang is old and should not go to court if he has nothing to do in the future. I allow Mr. Zhang to work from home!"

Zhu Yousong was very kind, but the officials present knew that the emperor was ready to let Zhang Shenyan retire, but they were just tactful. Zhang Shenyan's face turned pale when he heard the emperor say this. What else can you do if the emperor says this? There is no way Zhang Shenyan had to hunch over and take off his official hat and put it on the ground, and ask for his retirement.

In addition to the Donglin Party and the people who died and foxes were sad, the emperor's words also scared Ma Shiying. Today, Ruan Dacheng was preparing to attack the Donglin Party, Ma Shiying also knew that Ma Shiying did not expect that Ruan Dacheng could contact the emperor, and the emperor was willing to speak for him in the end, which made Ma Shiying afraid.

Ma Shiying recommended Ruan Dacheng to come out and fight, originally the idea of ​​using him as a knife envoy, so that Ruan Dacheng could fight with the Donglin Party in an open manner, but Ruan Dacheng actually contacted the emperor quietly. So if he could get rid of Zhang Shenyan this time, would he be able to get rid of Ma Shiying next time?

Ma Shiying felt extremely regretful now. If I had known this, it would be better not to recommend Ruan Dacheng. But the road has been completed and Ruan Dacheng's power has been established. Even Ma Shiying must be careful to deal with it.

Ruan Dacheng was very happy to see Zhang Shenyan being beaten up by the first move. The next step is to continue to work hard to beat Gao Hongtu.

Gao Hongtu was born in the eleventh year of Wanli. He is just 63 years old this year. The word "old" cannot be used on him, but Ruan Dacheng has some tricks. Under Ruan Dacheng's instructions, the right censor Li Zhan stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have heard about it. Recently, some family affairs of Gao Hongtu circulated in the Nandu city. It is said that Gao Hongtu had committed adultery with his widow sister-in-law when he was young, and his nephew Gao Zan was born with his widow sister-in-law!"

As soon as Li Zhan finished speaking, a rumor of discussion immediately rose from the hall. Everyone did not expect that Gao Hongtu was so fun to play, and he had the idea of ​​his sister-in-law.

After hearing Li Zhan's words, Gao Hongtu cursed angrily: "Li Zhan, you shameless villain, you actually arranged Gao in order to get promoted!"

As soon as Gao Hongtu finished speaking of his deputy, the Minister of Revenue Zhang Youyu stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I impeach Gao Hongtu, the Minister of Revenue, did not respect Your Majesty's imperial edict, and did not collect Fujian and Zhejiang flower silver on time. Now the Ministry of Revenue lacks 2.6 million taels of silver!"

What Li Zhan said just now can be said to be gossip news. Anyway, these literati and robbed their sister-in-law in secret and did a lot of things to steal the ashes. So what Li Zhan said could only disgust Gao Hongtu, and it had no substantial impact, but what Zhang Youyu said was amazing.

After Zhu Yousong came to power, in order to reward the four towns in Jiangbei, in addition to giving them territory and the right to appoint officials, he also promised to give them a large amount of military pay. The four towns in Jiangbei, plus Zuo Liangyu from Wuchang, the five families demanded a total of 6.4 million taels of military pay. There was no way for Zhu Yousong to issue an order to raise the funds in Jiangnan provinces. However, the provinces in Jiangnan had already lost 18 years of blood to the north since the seventh year of Tianqi. The gentry in Jiangnan provinces originally thought that the north was occupied by Li Zicheng, and now the three major pays were not needed to be collected! But unexpectedly, the imperial court ordered that in addition to the normal collection of the three major pays, seven cents of the true flowers were collected from each acre of fields.
