Guo Wendong's response was sonorous and powerful, exuding a fierce momentum.

Ruan Dacheng's heart was empty, and he didn't dare to meet Guo Wendong's eyes.

Ma Shiying patted his thigh lightly and said approvingly: "Wendong said it well, as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, we should fight all enemies for the Ming Dynasty, including Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, and Jiannu, all of whom are enemies of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Ruan Dacheng changed the topic and said: "The Donglin Party members, we must get rid of them, and I will collect their crimes." There is also the Restoration Society, which used to be difficult to get along with me, and I had to clean them up. ”

A few years ago, many people from the Restoration Society jointly wrote "Staying in the Capital to Prevent Chaos and Public Exposure" to expose Ruan Dacheng's crimes.

Many people in the Restoration Society can be used by Guo Wendong, such as Chen Zilong and Gu Yanwu, who are all members of the Restoration Society.

Guo Wendong said: "I am friends with many people in the Fu Society. There may have been a misunderstanding with Lord Ruan before. ”

Speaking of this, Ruan Dacheng was very angry and said: "Is it a misunderstanding, "Staying in the Capital to Prevent Chaos and Public Disclosure" embarrassed me very much. ”

Guo Wendong said: "I will find an opportunity to persuade the people of the restored society to stop embarrassing Lord Ruan in the future, and I will prepare a thin gift another day and send it to Lord Ruan's mansion." ”

Immediately, Guo Wendong whispered to him: "Fifty thousand taels of silver!" ”

Ma Shiying said: "Jizhi, for the sake of my son-in-law, I'll just forget it!" ”

He has no grievances with the people of the Restoration Society, and his son-in-law makes a request, so he becomes a peacemaker by the way.

Ruan Dacheng is a person who loves money, and he has accepted a lot of bribes, and when he heard that there were 50,000 taels of silver, his eyes immediately lit up.

Ma Shiying took the opportunity to say: "Jizhi, for the sake of my face, your grievances with the Fushe will be crossed, how about it?" ”

"Alright, alright! As long as the Restoration Society doesn't trouble me anymore, I won't bother with them! ”

Guo Wendong showed a satisfied smile and said: "We will concentrate on firing at the Donglin Party and wipe them out. ”

After the secret matter was discussed, the door of the main hall was reopened, and Ma Shiying asked Guo Wendong and Ruan Dacheng to stay for dinner.

At the dinner table, the best mood is Ma Jian.

In the past two months, Ma Jian's iron business has seen a significant increase in sales, mainly due to official purchases.

Nanjing originally had an arsenal, and after the establishment of the Hongguang Imperial Court of the Southern Ming Dynasty, the arsenal was re-put into production, and all the iron tools needed were purchased from Ma Jian.

In modern parlance, it is the abuse of power for personal gain.

For Guo Wendong's arsenal, the pig iron required was also purchased from Ma Jian.

Ma Jian made a lot of money in just two or three months.

After eating enough, Guo Wendong said to Ma Shiying: "Father-in-law, my son-in-law wants to meet the saint, can you introduce me." ”

He wanted to see Zhu Yousong, a faint king, for a purpose.

Ma Shiying smiled faintly: "Wendong, this is a trivial matter. Three days later, His Majesty went to court, and Xi'er and Wendong all came together. Xi'er is a general of the forbidden army, and Wendong is a guerrilla general of the Shenji Battalion, so it doesn't hurt to meet Your Majesty. ”

A few days ago, Ma Xi had just been promoted to a general, and his father, who was the first assistant to the cabinet, had risen like a rocket in his official position.

Ruan Dacheng said: "I have listed the charges of the Donglin Party in the past two days. Just like Wen Dong said, wipe out all the disciples of Donglin. ”

————————

Zhu Yousong in history was very lustful, and after becoming the emperor, he collected beauties from all over the world.

From his accession to the throne in May to the beginning of August, in less than three months, many women were sent to the palace and included in the harem by Zhu Yousong.

Zhu Yousong indulges in wine all day long, entertains himself, is too lazy to pay attention to the government, and often does not go to the court.

On the fourth day of the eighth lunar month, before dawn, Guo Wendong was woken up by the alarm clock.

Ma Lanxin said while dressing her husband in court clothes: "Husband, those people of the Donglin Party are very hateful, and after you meet the saint, you will inevitably be attacked by the Donglin Party." ”

Guo Wendong smiled and said: "There are also our people in the court, there are father-in-law, and Lord Ruan, who is rich and Qianyi, and what are you afraid of." ”

He was not worried at all, in history, the Donglin Party members of the Southern Ming Dynasty were all driven out of the DPRK by Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng.

Guo Wendong put on his court clothes, hurriedly ate something, took a box, and took a carriage to Miyagi.

The carriage stopped outside the Hongwu Gate of the Imperial City, Guo Wendong got out of the carriage, entered after showing his documents, and walked to the palace from the Thousand Steps Corridor.

Enter Miyagi from the Chengtian Gate and come to the Noon Gate.

The Forbidden City is majestic and symbolizes the supremacy of the emperor's power.

When Guo Wendong was in modern times, he once visited the Forbidden City once. This Nanjing Forbidden City looks similar to the Forbidden City in Beijing.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing, and the Beijing Forbidden City built was based on the Nanjing Forbidden City.

Outside the noon gate, a large number of soldiers stood guard.

Some of the officials had already arrived early and were waiting here.

Among them, the Donglin Party has arrived collectively.

Soon, Ma Shiying, Ma Xi, and Ruan Dacheng also arrived.

The people at each end stood on one side, and the distinction was clear.

Qin Honglian is also on the side of the Donglin Party.

Although he had not yet entered the palace, Guo Wendong had already sniffed out the strong smell of gunpowder.

"Humph! It's all a raccoon dog! ”

Shi Kefa squirted a sentence, although the voice was not loud, Guo Wendong could still hear it clearly.

Guo Wendong sneered, he didn't bother to pay attention to these people, they couldn't bounce for long.

Ma Xi leaned into Guo Wendong's ear and said, "Don't be like them, these Donglin dogs will be finished soon!" ”

"When the time comes, hundreds of officials will enter the palace!" The eunuch's strange voice came.

Immediately, the gate of the noon gate slowly opened, and Guo Wendong followed the people at this end into the Forbidden City.

After entering from the noon gate, walk through the inner Wulong Bridge, and then enter from the Fengtian Gate, you will see the big square, which is the Fengtiandian Square, and the architectural structure is highly similar to the Taihedian Square of the Forbidden City in Beijing.

Fengtian Hall is the largest palace in the Forbidden City, and it is the place where the emperor holds major ceremonies and receives congratulations from hundreds of civil and military officials.

The officials turned west again, passed through the Wu Tower, and came to the Wu Ying Hall to stop.

This is where the emperor usually goes to court.

The door of the Wuying Hall has been opened, and the officials have entered the hall.

Ma Shiying said to Ma Xi and Guo Wendong: "You wait here first, and the emperor can only enter after summoning him." ”

Immediately, he and Ruan Dacheng walked into the Wuying Hall together.

Zhu Yousong was not in the palace, the officials came on time, but Zhu Yousong was late.

The sky was cloudy, Guo Wendong looked at his watch, it was six o'clock.

I heard that the time of the Ming Dynasty was five o'clock in the morning, and the current emperor didn't want to get up too early, so he changed it to six o'clock, and was sprayed by the Donglin Party and the officials.

Before the emperor arrived, the hall was not quiet for long, and the officials began to quarrel.

Guo Wendong could hear it clearly outside the hall.

The Donglin Party quarreled so fiercely that they all seemed to have become the embodiment of justice.

Guo Wendong has the right to watch the excitement, anyway, the result is already doomed. The Donglin Party had neither the support of the emperor nor an army, and its defeat was already doomed.

"Your Majesty has arrived at ......"

The eunuch's loud voice came, and the hall suddenly became quiet.

This was followed by the voices of ministers worshipping and chanting long live.
