After taking the seat again, Zhang Pu was in the middle, with Liu Rushi who was full of admiration in his left hand, and Wang Bingzhong from a small place on his right hand. Smelling the faint fragrance emitted by Liu Rushi's body, Zhang Pu was not only intoxicated, but also leaned against Liu Rushi for the indefinite urge.
"Young Master Zhang, you can say it now." Liu Rushi didn't notice it, looking at Zhang Pu with two beautiful eyes. Although she was a woman, she had a sense of family and country that a man did not have. She always showed that she could not yearn for major events in the court. Whenever she talked to the gentleman of Donglin and Fushe, she would talk about national plans and the ills of the court.
Zhang Pu has been staying in the Qinlou Chuguan for a long time and is naturally familiar with Liu Rushi's preferences. In addition, he is very eloquent and uses a little trick, so he introduced the arrogant Liu Rushi into Yi.
Zhang Pu did not say anything, but instead made a full gesture, first drank 1 cup of wine and then slowly said: "I think back then, the first-class treasure, with the power of thunder, wiped out Wei Zhongxian, eliminated evil spirits, cleared the world, and brought the officialdom back to the gentleman's dynasty. At that time, all the ministers in the court were vigorous and vigorous, hoping to revive the Ming Dynasty under the saint king.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. The emperor was really not a disciple of me, so the great revival of the Ming Dynasty died.”
"What Mr. Zhang pointed out is the matter of the emperor's extra charges and suppression?" Liu Rushi said curiously.
"That's right," Zhang Pu nodded, "By 408 years, except for a few areas such as Guizhou, the average silver levy was 9 cents per mu of land in the country, totaling 5.2 million 0.06 million 0.2 taels. During the revelation, the pass was levyed and the salt and other miscellaneous silver levy were levyed.
In the fourth year of Chongzhen, the field quota was increased from 9 cents to 1 cents and 2 cents, and more than 6.67 million taels of silver were distributed. Apart from the military waste, more than 5.2 million taels of silver were levied. In addition to tariffs, salt quotas and miscellaneous items, a total of 7.4 million 8.298 taels of silver were levied.
The name of the suppression of the riots in Shaanxi was to suppress the riots in Shaanxi, but in fact, they did not know where they went. It was originally proposed to only collect one year, but until this year, the suppression of the riots were still collected every year.
Not only that, the eunuch party that was swept away by one seemed to be making a comeback. Since this year, eunuchs Zhang Yixian, the households and the two departments of work, and the capital were money and grain; Tang Wenzheng was the admiral of the Jingying Rongzheng; Wang Kun, Liu Wenzhong, Liu Yunzhong and others went to Xuanfu, Datong, and Shanxi to monitor military salaries; Wang Yingchao, Zhang Guoyuan, Wang Zhixin, Deng Xizhao and other eunuchs were respectively sent to Guanning, Jizhen East Association, China Association, and West Association to supervise the army; Li Maoqi monitored the tea horses in Shaanxi.
The eunuch Cao Huachun was in charge of the Rongzheng in the Jingying, and the eunuchs Zhang Qijian, Hao Chunren, Gao Yangxing, Han Rugui, Wei Boshou and others went to various warehouses to inspect and release the officials. In June, the eunuch Gao Qiqian monitored Ning and paid the military service. All of this was clearly a valuation of eunuchs and absent from scholars.
My scholars from Donglin advised him, but they were abandoned by the current emperor. A large number of gentlemen were forced to leave the court and wandered around four places. The most typical example is that my mentor Zhou Yanru was impeached by the traitor Wen Tiren, so he was scattered at home and could not contribute to the country."
Liu Rushi sat upright next to him, staring at Zhang Pu, who looked like a savior, with a dazzling look in his eyes, obviously he had already taken it into the scene described by Zhang Pu.
On the contrary, Wang Bingzhong, who was inconspicuous, laughed secretly and sneered at Zhang Pu's words.
Zhang Pu continued: "Since the Donglin Zhengren left the court, the treacherous and slandered the people and the people were living in poverty. Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Henan were everywhere, and there were countless thieves plundering the countryside. This is a strong proof."
Liu Rushi seemed to have thought of something and said softly: "In recent days, I have heard from others that the refugees in Jiangbei are increasing day by day. It is rumored that there are thieves in Shaanxi. What is Zhang Xianzhong who is trying to plot against Luzhou?"
Zhang Pu looked at Liu Rushi and immediately bowed and said, "I heard for a long time that the king of Hedong is worried about the country and the people. Today, I am really famous and better meet. It is true that the Shaanxi thief Zhang Xianzhong used tricks to seize Fengyang, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, a few months ago, and then the entire army withdrew from Fengyang and headed straight for Luzhou.
The court urgently appointed the governor of five provinces Chen Qiyu as the governor of seven provinces, and looked at the affairs of Jiangbei. Chen Qiyu was originally encircled and suppressing the big thief Pei Xiao2 in Hanzhong. Hearing that Zhang Xianzhong conquered Fengyang and went south to Luzhou, it seemed to be peeping into Jiangnan. So he gave up Hanzhong overnight and led his army back to aid, joined forces with the Luzhou prefect to defend Luzhou together.
Zhang's thief failed to attack Luzhou, and was furious, plundering the countryside and killing Zhongliang. Therefore, the number of refugees in recent days has increased. However, Hedong Jun does not have to worry. With Chen Qiyu here, I believe that it will not take long to capture Zhang's thief and offer him to the palace."
"It's best, I'm sorry for those miserable people who have suffered this great disaster, fell into a foreign land, and were coldly watched by the world." Thinking of those miserable people, Liu Rushi thought of his own life experience.

Her original surname is Yang, and she is from Jiaxing, Zhejiang. Due to her poverty, she was robbed and sold to a brothel in the courtyard since she was a child. She was unfortunate in childhood and had unclear life experience. She was so angry that she was so obsessed with the refugees. It was this experience that made her more empathetic to those refugees.
Seeing that Liu Rushi was secretly sad, Zhang Pu slowly approached him quietly, and slowly pressed Liu Rushi's hand with both hands, comforting him: "The government has sent people to cross the river to gather refugees and settle them. Along the way, there are also gentry setting up porridge sheds, giving clothes to them, and accepting refugees. I believe that with me, the gentry in Jiangnan, those refugees will not be too miserable. Hedong Jun does not need to be so moved."
Liu Rushi nodded slightly, and suddenly felt something strange in his hand. He raised his eyes, but Zhang Pu had already held his soft pan into his palm and gently stroked it. Liu Rushi was shocked and quickly pulled out his palm, frowned slightly, and said coldly: "Young Master Zhang, please respect yourself."
Zhang Pu's little thoughts were exposed, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face, but then disappeared, as if nothing had happened, saying: "The state affairs were difficult, because the treacherous dynasty did not want to reimburse the country, but instead they were greedy, despicable, and demanded excessively. They only knew how to plunder taxes and compete for profit with the people. So the Central Plains was so stormy and the people were upside down.
I founded Fushe, which means to succeed Donglin, develop retro studies, apply it to the world, to rent, to abolish the ranks, to abolish the Central Envoy, to stop the internal ranks, and to restart the Donglin scholars. In this way, the world can be pacified after one or two years. Within five years, the decline of the Ming Dynasty will reverse, and within ten years, the Ming Dynasty will surely revive.”
Zhang Pu's speech was very contagious. At least Liu Rushi, who was still a little angry just now, was excited and immediately said boldly: "The Central Plains are in full swing, and the great heroes are needed to suppress the rebellion and resist the aggression. It should be like Xie Dongshan to plan the enemy, not like Tao Jing's noble character. If I am a man, I must save the nation and serve the country with my own life."
"How magnificent, as if Hedong Jun is like this, you should float a big white." Zhang Pu immediately picked up the wine glass, placed it in front of his chest, and drank it all at Liu Rushi. Liu Rushi was infected by him, picked up the wine glass, covered it with his hands, and drank it all at once.
The two people said the rise, but Wang Bingzhong, who was next to him, was a little distracted. Although Zhang Pu said a lot, he could still summarize it in one sentence, that is, the emperor wanted to use their group of people from Donglin to restore society as officials. After all, they were just people who were fighting for fame and fortune. Zhang Pu once said, "To promote the retro studies, those who will make the future useful" to call on the scholars.
The actual meaning is to "join the organization, ensure you are on the list of gold, and keep your career going well." If they really want them to take charge of the government, they might not be as good as they are now.
However, Wang Bingzhong never forgot where he came from and what he wanted to do. Seeing that two people put down their wine glasses, Wang Bingzhong interrupted: "Mr. Zhang is a talented man, and he deserves to be the leader of Fushe. When I came, I heard from my family that the chief minister of the cabinet, Wen Tiren, encouraged Suzhou Prefecture's chief official Zhou Zhikui and Liu Wensheng accused Fushe of "forming a party and acting freely", "controlling arbitrary", "exiting officials and killing officials", and "despising the orders of the cliques"
p
I must not have a deep friendship with Fushe. However, when I saw you today, I realized that with Mr. Zhang, the talented man of Fushe, how could he let me invade the traitors?”
