2782.Chapter 824: Gui Scroll: From the Dragon, not shabby

 The so-called Shilin leaders were stuck on this first issue. Except for Han Xu and the Sun brothers, who had a tougher attitude, they actually knew that others might not be able to oppose Feng Ziying's claims as firmly as they did.

emperor.

Since Emperor Wantong, the prestige of the Zhang family has dropped to its lowest point, especially in the past few decades, the crown prince has been succeeded as emperor by Emperor Yonglong. The story of his affair with Concubine Ying is not a secret among civil servants and military generals.

Moreover, as he changed from Prince Yi Zhong to Emperor Wan Tong, these romantic scandals were even more obscurely spread among the people and restaurants, which greatly damaged the prestige of the Zhang family.

Even the imperial court allowed such rumors to spread intentionally or unintentionally, in order to undermine the prestige of Emperor Wan Tong and make it easier for the cabinet to govern.

In order to ensure that his own lineage continued to be emperor, Emperor Wantong took the initiative to pass the throne to Emperor Xuanshun. Emperor Xuanshun was obviously not a qualified emperor candidate. He was obsessed with craftsmanship and had no interest in government affairs.

This was just in line with the wishes of the princes of the court, so in the past few years the emperor's influence had declined to the point where it was truly dispensable, and sometimes even major court affairs were too lazy to report to the emperor.

This has also made the Zhang family's influence at least in the capital city have declined to a very weak point. In addition, the industrial and commercial forces in the south of the Yangtze River are dissatisfied with it. Therefore, how many civil servants in the court now have dissatisfaction with Emperor Xuanshun or the Zhang family?

It's really like a joke how strong Pulse's loyalty is.

The reason why many people are reluctant to accept the Feng family as emperor is more of a psychological conservative mentality.

When the most critical moment comes, these people's herd mentality will slowly emerge, which Han Xu and the Sun brothers have already anticipated.

Sighing softly, Sun Juxiang shook his head: "So what? The majority of people in this world are people who make the most of the situation. We can only stick to our own beliefs, so why should we care too much about other people's attitudes?

?”

Han Xu lowered his head in silence, while Li Banghua and Zhu Guozhen had complicated expressions on their faces, and for a moment they didn't know how to respond.

In addition to Han Sun, Li Zhu and others, the hundreds of civil servants outside the Fengtian Palace were also divided into one or twenty large and small circles according to their closeness, and each discussed the upcoming major events together.

Lian Guoshi and Sun Chengzong came together, followed by Bi Ziyan.

Lian Guoshi was a scholar from Henan, Sun Chengzong was a scholar from Northern Zhili, and Bi Ziyan was a scholar from Shandong. This represents almost all the northern scholars except Shanxi scholars.

"Jun Yu, what do you think?" Sun Chengzong saw Bi Ziyan coming over. In fact, he was not very familiar with Bi Ziyan, but he also knew that this man had a close relationship with Feng Ziying, and he was also from Shandong.

Coming over actually means something, but I don’t really care about it.

"I haven't thought much about it. I'm still a little confused." Lian Guoshi spread his hands, "As far as I know, Ziying probably has never had such an idea. I've never known it. Brother Jing Hui, what about you?"

Bi Ziyan shook his head: "I'm afraid Ziying himself is confused. He is already the chief assistant, so why do he need to make such a fuss? Does it make sense? But I'm afraid the warriors won't care about this now. They have already embarked on a different path.

The way back is not up to Ziying herself. No matter how high Ziying's prestige is among the military people, the military people no longer trust the civil servants. For the sake of their wealth and lives, I'm afraid they have to let Ziying go even if they are chasing a duck."

Lian Guoshi and Sun Chengzong looked at each other, but in the end they both nodded silently.

This is probably a fact that no one wants to see, but it is unavoidable. Feng Ziying has lost his choice. He can only be passively coerced by the warriors.

Maybe Zhao Kuangyin was like this back then?

God knows.

"Then when...?" Sun Chengzong was silent for a while before asking.

"I don't know, I'm so upset right now, I don't know..." Lian Guoshi smiled bitterly, "Brother Zhisheng, what about you?"

"Me?" Sun Chengzong raised his head and hesitated, "I haven't thought about it. I don't agree with it emotionally, but from a rational point of view, if Ziying really ascends the throne and becomes emperor, he can calm down the military and disarm.

I agree with the conquest of Mongolia. This seems to be the best choice to resolve the crisis, but..."

He didn't say anything further, maybe it was his complex and tangled mentality that made him, a pure scholar, feel confused.

"Brother Jing Hui, where are you?" Lian Guoshi asked again.

Bi Ziyan chose to follow his heart and said calmly: "If we really get to that point, I will admit it, uh, support it, otherwise, will it really get to the point where swordsmen meet? And to this point, it seems childish.

Brother Sheng said, I am afraid that choosing to admit support is the most rational and reasonable way to resolve the crisis. Why must we oppose it? For the sake of so-called loyalty, it is not that I am a cold person. Starting from Emperor Wan Tong, I think in fact the legitimacy

It has been questioned and criticized by many people.”



The same situation is happening in other circles as well.

Pan Ruzhen and Fu Shi were inexplicably excited, but they also knew that they had already been branded by the Feng family. Going to find others at this time would arouse suspicion, so except for Zheng Chongjian and Ma Shiying who ran over in confusion,

We didn't know what to say when we were together, but when the topic finally came up, everyone tacitly cherished words like gold, and that was it. Anyway, the leadership was in the hands of the warriors, so what else could be done?

Lu Yanzhang, Zhang Nai and Dong Qichang came together. They were the pillars of the Songjiang Gang. Together with Yuan Keli, their eyes were full of excitement and longing.

Perhaps they are a small group that least care about Feng Ziying's ascension to the throne.

The Songjiang scholars, who have completely integrated with the merchants, have actually completely withdrawn from their status as land gentry. In other words, although they still retain some land, land is no longer their most important asset. Shipbuilding, shipping, cotton

Textile and maritime trade are their core assets.

Songjiang's superior geographical location, located between the north and south and at the mouth of the Yangtze River, has become increasingly prominent. The rise of northern ports such as Yuguan, Jinzhou and Dengzhou has not affected Songjiang at all. Instead, it has made Songjiang a shipping hub for the intersection of north and south and Yangtze River shipping.

Shipbuilding and cotton textiles developed more rapidly.

"I really didn't expect that it would turn out like this." Lu Yanzhang sighed with emotion.

As one of the core figures of the Songjiang Gang, he had vaguely known from the businessmen that the samurai might make trouble, but he also did not expect that the samurai were not planning to just be extras or supporting roles, but were actively stealing the show from the beginning.

Becoming the protagonist, of course, the result is not bad, or even better.

"This is not a bad thing. I guess the people in the navy will also be very happy." Yuan Keli continued, "Ziying actually agrees more with the expansion of the navy. Of course, the army is not suitable for large-scale reductions now. The war against Mongolia

It should be the best proof of the role of the army, and it is also a way to resolve the current crisis. It is a pity that the princes in the DPRK and China are unwilling to accept it. It may turn out like this, which many people did not expect."

"No matter what, I think it will only be better." Dong Qichang said calmly, "The scholars in the south of the Yangtze River are in disarray. Those squires who still cling to the land are actually no different from the old antiques in the north. They should all be eliminated.

Now, I feel that many of Zi Xian’s (Xu Guangqi’s) views are very enlightening. It’s not a big deal to include the study of objects and financial accounting in the scientific examination, as long as the weight is not increased too much at once, which makes many people unable to

Just get used to it.”

Yuan Keli and Zhang Nai both looked at Dong Qichang in surprise. This guy has a lot of ability to adapt to the changing circumstances. Although they all belong to the Songjiang Gang, Dong Qichang's original thoughts were not so open-minded, and now he has even become a bit radical.

Already.

"Haha, no matter what, we Songjiang scholars hope not to follow the original pattern. The times are developing, and people should accept new things. Otherwise, they will be stuck in a corner, and they will only be complacent and unable to achieve great things." Lu Yanzhang chuckled:

"And I also believe that there are many people who hold the same attitudes and views as us, which may surprise those old diehards."

Yuan Keli and Zhang Nai both nodded.

Feng Ziying was "held hostage" very quickly.

When a commotion came from the Jinshui Bridge, everyone knew that this moment had finally arrived.

For a moment, everyone was in a daze, wondering whether it was a disaster or a blessing that they could witness such a bizarre "coup" in their lifetime.

Many people gritted their teeth, some looked forward to it, and some looked on with cold eyes, but most people were still complicated and unspeakable, or in a state of hesitation and confusion.

But the few people who came in before Feng Ziying and his party made the civil servants present couldn't help but scream in surprise.

"Six Ji Gong?"

"Whose surname is Gu?"

"Gu Bingqian? It is indeed related to him!"

"Is there any guest guest?"

"Is Tang Binyin also involved in this?"

"Is this shameless guy named Miu here too?"

"I am also a famous person from Jiangnan, why can't I come?"

"For such a big thing, it's normal for anyone to come, but it's abnormal if they don't come,..."

"Who wouldn't want to witness this famous scene?"

"Yes, you may not encounter it once in your life. It will enter the history books in the future. It is worth a visit..."

In the eyes of everyone who looked at them with contempt, flattery or indifference, Gu Bingqian, Tang Binyin and Miao Changqi all walked in proudly and stood in front of the palace before Feng Ziying was "hijacked" by a group of warriors.

Now that I'm here, I have to make my attitude clearest, otherwise there would be no need to go through this.

Seeing the eagerness in the eyes of Tang Binyin and Miao Changqi, Gu Bingqian knew that he had come to the right place. There were many people who had the same thoughts as him.

If you follow the dragon, you are not shabby.
