First Minister of Ming Dynasty Chapter 264

Popular recommendation:

You Fang only felt that his stomach was stirring like a knife, his liver and intestines were broken, his eyes were black, his sweat had soaked his clothes, and his whole body was shaking.

"You, what are you going to do? Do you want to kill them all? Yes, I have something to bear, so why bother the woman, the old man. What is wrong with the woman?"

he asked angrily.

Guo Ying scratched his head, "I said, You Fang, you still don't know, you are just a knife in the hands of others, you are not the mastermind, if you want to bear the guilt, it is not your turn! "

"You!" You Fang coughed violently, hunched and shrunk into a prawn.

At this time, Guo Yingcai said to the old man: "Tell me, who are you doing things for? Hurry up, don't waste time!"

The little old man was startled, he was naturally not as stupid as You Fang, and he fell into the hands of others.

The little old man explained the matter obediently.

"I, I am the steward of the Wang family."

"Which Wang family?" Guo Ying asked.

"That's right, it's the Wang family, Wang Jue, the Wang family in Hangzhou!" The little old man added: "Our master also sponsored You Fang and asked him to come to Jinling."

Hearing this, You Fang's body vibrated violently, his eyes widened, and his breathing became short...

"Why do you want to subsidize Yufang, and what is the purpose?"

"Yes, I want to see the details of the Zhu family's army. After all, after all, our master has quite a fortune in Hangzhou, and we dare not be negligent."

Guo Ying said: "Then how did your master inquire? But did you see it clearly?"

"Look... I see clearly, my master welcomes and welcomes Taiwei Zhang into Hangzhou." The housekeeper lowered his head bitterly, no need to ask, Zhu Yuanzhang did not pass the interview, but Zhang Shicheng, who is even more popular with the rich and powerful businessman.

When Zhang Shicheng's troops entered Hangzhou, Wang Jue took the lead to welcome them.

"Since your master left with Taiwei Zhang, how did you come up with Yu Fang's idea? What are your calculations?"

The housekeeper's heart was beating wildly, and he was obviously afraid, but in the face of Guo Ying's questioning, he didn't dare not say anything.

"I, my master only said that the Zhu family army was too unreasonable, and was worried that the Zhu family army would invade Hangzhou. It just so happened that You Fang became the teacher of the imperial government at that time, so he set up a plan!"

[In other words, the best app for reading aloud and listening to books at present, Mimi Read, install the latest version. 】

"So this woman is not your daughter anymore?"

The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, then nodded helplessly, "She, she was bought by my master to keep it in the mansion. It was originally intended to be dedicated to the nobles of Zhu Jiajun. Later, I heard that the prime minister of Zhu Jiajun was upright and honest, penniless, and his family was full of apprentices... It was difficult to think about it. If you buy it, just use her to buy You Fang, it's not a waste of money."

puff!

Hearing this, You Fang couldn't take it any longer, he opened his mouth, spurted black blood, and fell to the ground, his heart ached to the extreme.

What?

My goddess, in the eyes of others, is something that is reluctant to waste!

That's the person I've been fascinated by, thinking about day and night!

For her, me, I even did the stabbing thing, physically digging my heart and my lungs, but she turned out to be a marionette in the hands of others, and she was all a fake show to herself, and she had no real feelings at all.

I'm the biggest idiot, and my whole heart goes to waste.

You Fang was lying on the ground, coughing up blood, which was extremely miserable.

"In order to facilitate this, these monks have also contributed their strength, right?"

"Yes!"

"Why?"

"Because, because our master gives some incense money to the temple every year, most of the businessmen from Hangzhou live in the temple, and they will tell our master about anything!"

Guo Ying nodded, "Okay, that's great! You masters have hands and eyes!"

The housekeeper was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down: "Go back, if you go back to your lord, in fact, this is what our master used to deal with the officials of the Yuan court. Please forgive me, please!"

He knelt on the ground and banged his head.

The woman also knelt down and prayed for her life together.

Guo Ying glanced at her and immediately said, "I heard that you are pregnant, and the child in your womb is Yu Fang's?"

Lying on the ground at this moment, the dying You Fang pricked up his ears.

The woman was silent for a while, and Guo Ying was furious, "Tell me!"

The woman kept her head down, unable to speak.

And among the few monks, one bravely said: "My lord, this temptress has always refused to come... Who knows who is carrying it in her belly!"

"what!"

You Fangru was struck by lightning, screaming in pain, and suddenly turned his back to the sky, and fell heavily.

From his eyes, nostrils, and ears, black blood gushed out, the expression on his face twitched in pain, struggling for a moment, with endless remorse, You Fang stared, dead!

Zhang Ximeng watched silently, only to ask Guo Ying to ask questions. In his heart, he had silently reviewed the matter... Speaking of which, You Fang was very hateful, but also pitiful.

He studied hard and wanted to get ahead, and he didn't even have to pay for the journey to Jinling.

The Wang family sponsored him and wanted You Fang to enter the Zhu family army, so as to spy on the reality of the Zhu family army. As a result, You Fang came a step late and did not catch up with the exam, and Wang Jue already knew the style of Zhu Jiajun, so he chose Zhang Shicheng.

Afterwards, the movement on Zhu Jiajun's side became louder and louder, and Wang Jue was afraid, so he wanted to spy on Zhu Jiajun's situation.

When he happened to meet You Fang's teacher who was selected by Zhu Ying, he instructed his subordinates to deal with You Fang in the same way he had dealt with Yuan court officials...

Poor You Fang, just a little scholar, came to Jinling to take the exam, it was the furthest trip in this life. Not to mention the limited knowledge, the mind is also simple and pitiful.

He thought that all the beautiful things in the world revolved around him, and the little beauty tricks tied him.

But then again, is You Fang innocent?

When he sees beauty, he gets confused, people let him steal manuscripts, and he does it when he is poisoned... As long as he has a bottom line in his life, he doesn't have no bottom line at all!

Now drinking poisonous tea, bleeding from the seven orifices, and being killed by anger, it is also self-defeating, and there is no sympathy for it.

In fact, Zhang Ximeng could see a lot of things from him.

The Wang family had a big business and was rich and powerful. They used to be dependent on the Yuan court, and now they are Zhang Shicheng's guests. It is really easy for them to buy officials and support scholars.

Subsidizing studies, helping with exams, Yan Ruyu, Golden House, when they embark on a career, they will definitely reciprocate, charging for the Wang family, and sheltering them from the wind and rain.

This kind of thing happened a long time ago. The so-called catching a son-in-law under the list means to win over the civil servants in advance!

Later, everyone felt that it was too late to catch the son-in-law under the list. To cultivate talents, start with reading, and finally run a school by yourself and export talents in batches.

That's right, it's Donglin Academy.

Zhang Ximeng felt more and more encouraged to study, expand the scale of imperial examinations, and start from the grassroots level... This is absolutely necessary.

After all, only the imperial court has the power to cultivate a wide range of academics, and family businessmen can cultivate dozens or hundreds of talents, but not hundreds of thousands or millions of scholars.

On the basis of extensive training of talents, the scale of each imperial examination is maintained at a huge number, so it is impossible to buy so many people at once.

Moreover, to pass the imperial examinations, it is necessary to start from the bottom. Such people do not have much power, and it is completely uneconomical to buy them.

All in all, as long as the cost of buying civilian officials is infinitely high, it will naturally dispel some people's wishful thinking.

As long as we can stick to this set of things, it is estimated that there will be nothing to do with the Donglin Party.

Of course, this is just a long-term plan. The most important thing right now is this case... Someone actually reached out to Zhu Ying's side, this Wang Jue is really a person!

He and Zhang Shicheng got together, and although they were not strong rivals, they should not be underestimated. We must take the opportunity to dig out all the eyeliners hidden in Jinling, give Zhang Shicheng a blow, and let him know how powerful he is...

But just when Zhang Ximeng was about to fight, another news came from Suzhou.

This news made Zhang Ximeng unable to calm down. He looked around and thought about it for a long time before deciding to go to Li Shanchang.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang was away, and Li Shanchang had the most authority. They had to come to a conclusion on this matter.

After Lao Li saw the news, he also had a strange face, he wanted to laugh but it wasn't funny, but when he didn't laugh, he felt uncomfortable.

"I said Zhang Xiang, this Zhang Jiusi spent a long time trying to steal your manuscript. He did not implement the innovation according to your method. Instead, he found a literati to refute your article?"

Zhang Ximeng smiled helplessly, "Someone may be sure to refute me!"

"What's the use of refuting you!" Li Shanchang sneered, "What can you say if it's so hype? Which Confucian scholar can't tell the truth? But who has the ability to work hard and prosper? Your opinion is not just talking. What, but our wealth is abundant, the armament is complete, the food and grass are abundant, and the people support it! It is the food in Changping warehouse, the armor on the soldiers, the hundreds of thousands of people... This is really useful!"

Li Shanchang was generous with his words and praised Zhang Ximeng, which made him a little embarrassed.

However, Lao Li did bring this matter to a realistic dimension. Behind Zhang Ximeng's proposition is the powerful Zhu family army. On the other hand, the strength of Zhu's army is inseparable from Zhang Ximeng's proposition.

The two complement and complement each other.

It is because of this that many smart readers are allowed to read www.uu. uukanshu.com accepted Zhang Ximeng's proposition.

If there is no Zhu Jiajun's achievements here, those people will go crazy after reading a few articles, crying to serve Zhu Jiajun, then their brains are broken!

"According to Brother Li, what Zhang Shicheng should do most is to learn from us?"

Li Shan grew up laughing, "It's a pity! He can't learn it! But I didn't expect that he actually hit the wrong way and helped us spread the article... Now the talented Wu Zhong has his heart on Zhu Jiajun, and Zhang Shicheng dug a grave by himself. !"

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, "I think so too, but Brother Li has to make plans early, and the scholars from Wu Zhong are willing to come over and find a way to settle down."

Li Shanchang nodded, "It's just right, these days, I've been aggressive and fired a lot of old officials in the Yuan court... Those who violated the yang and yin, and those who didn't change their habits were all fired. When it comes to vacancies, I have a lot of them! As long as you can read and read, there are also The heart to achieve career, on our side, that is very promising!"

Zhang Ximeng just remembered that it was precisely because of Han Xiuniang's case that a large number of officials were cleared from top to bottom... Now that the talented scholars in Wuzhong are willing to join the Zhu family army, it is more appropriate.

Afraid that we don't have talent available, we send our best talents here. What kind of spirit is this?

"Brother Li, if one day, the lord will rule the world, I'm afraid neither of us will be the first hero!"

Li Shanchang was startled, "Well, how do you say this?"

"This first hero, of course, is to destroy his family and make sacrifices, and use his own flesh and blood to strengthen our Zhang Shicheng!" Zhang Ximeng said: "When the time comes, we should send him a big golden talent!"

Li Shanchang couldn't help laughing on his back, "Yes, I want to give away 10,000 pounds!"
