Chapter Seventy-Four: Donglin Buxing
In the pedestrian Sijia silhouette, the house is spacious, and the windows are bright and clean.
Wen Tiren and Wen Ji, the third son who escorted him into Beijing, had already washed up and were chatting.
As soon as they arrived in the capital, many of their colleagues, protégés, and veterans from the DPRK and China immediately took the post to inquire about the situation and expressed concern.
Among them, including his former partner Wang Yingxiong and his former younger brother Xue Guoguan.
It's just that Wen Tiren didn't see all the people who came to visit, and all the prayers were returned, and he meditated alone behind closed doors.
However, looking at him sometimes sitting in front of the desk, sometimes pacing around with staggering steps, it shows his inner turmoil.
"Father, others can not see me, but the acting first assistant Xue Guoguan and the second assistant Wang Yingxiong are both father's best friends in the past and comrades-in-arms who fought side by side, why don't they see it?"
Wen Tiren's third son, Wen Ji, sorted out his clothes and asked his father Wen Tiren in confusion.
In his opinion, His Majesty's summons was obviously to get his father back, and he didn't believe that his father couldn't see it.
In this case, how can a former colleague not see it, this is the best helper?
Wen Tiren glanced at his son with a wry smile, shook his head and said, "You still don't understand how a scholar can behave in the court, don't worry." ”
After speaking, he stood with his hands in his hands, and he was overwhelmed with emotion.
In fact, he didn't tell his son that he stepped down because of His Majesty's benevolence and party!
Now, how dare he form a gang and act in a high-profile manner as soon as he arrives in the capital?
Wouldn't that give people a handle and let the Donglin Party take advantage of the loopholes.
It's just that what puzzled him was that Wang Yingxiong and Xue Guoguan how dare they act in such a high-profile manner?
Wen Ji listened to his father's words, lowered his head and even promised a few yes, but did not quit. He had something in his heart, and he didn't know whether he should tell his father.
Wen Tiren saw that he seemed to be about to speak, and asked, "What else do you want to say?" ”
Wen Ji took half a step forward and whispered, "Father, my son saw a little eunuch in the palace, who had been sitting in the yamen of the pedestrian department for a long time. ”
Wen Tiren's heart was hot, and he scolded his son for why he didn't say it earlier, and then changed into the unicorn suit given by the emperor, and walked to the yamen of the front hall to find Xiao Huangmen to enter the palace and face the saint.
Mandarin Palace.
Wen Tiren meticulously finished the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and then sat on the brocade given by Emperor Chongzhen.
"How does Wen Aiqing feel now, but she can work hard in the government?"
Above the Danqi, Emperor Chongzhen waited for Wen Tiren to sit down and asked softly.
He really can't wait, and the DPRK and China need to have a stable factor.
Wen Tiren was stunned, Your Majesty's rhythm is not right!
It seems too anxious, what the hell is going on?
However, in the face of His Majesty's inquiry, he still twisted his beard and leaned over slightly and replied: "Your Majesty, Weichen was depressed and incomprehensible some time ago, and his chest was uneven.
However, fortunately, His Majesty took pity on him and summoned him to the capital, and everything was fine! ”
Although Wen Tiren said it wisely, Emperor Chongzhen understood.
When it comes to Wen Tiren's level of readers, all of them are masters of Xinglin, and they are clear about their physical condition.
Some time ago, he felt depressed because of his resignation, but now he has no worries.
It's no wonder that he can be appreciated and trusted by his predecessor, Emperor Chongzhen.
Sure enough, there is something outstanding.
It's just a pity that such a figure was finally removed from office because of a benevolent party.
Above the Danqi, Emperor Chongzhen recalled the process of Wen Tiren's resignation, and sighed without shaking his head.
Speaking of which, this is all a problem of the previous Emperor Chongzhen being too stupid and naïve.
This brother was an idealist who hated the problem of courtiers having friends the most in his life.
Of course, it is understandable that no one in a position of authority wants his subordinates to huddle together.
But the problem is that the high-ranking Emperor Chongzhen doesn't understand that no matter how high or low a person is, as long as he is a person, he must have a circle.
The size of the circle determines the success of the person.
The people in each circle are actually mutually accomplished.
You can't do anything if you're alone.
This is a very simple truth.
The Donglin Party already exists, if Wen Tiren doesn't have a few helpers, can he be tough with them with just one position as the first assistant?
Apparently it can't be!
How can the power of the individual outweigh the group?
Even if you have the ability, if you don't have a helper, there is still the old saying, you have to coil the dragon, and you have to lie down if you are a tiger.
Therefore, in history, Wen Tiren sat in the position of first assistant and began to cultivate his own power.
He first made his fellow villager Min Hongxue a secretary of the ministry, and then took Yushi Gaojie, the waiter Tang Shiji, and the deputy capital Yushi Zhang Yongguang as henchmen, so that he could barely suppress the Donglin party.
That's right, just reluctantly, not as comprehensively suppressing the Donglin Party as the nine-thousand-year-old Wei Gonggong.
Of course, this is not to say that Wen Tiren is not as talented as Gonggong Wei, just because the leadership is different.
Historically, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was also fooled by the Donglin Party, but he reacted quickly and immediately woke up.
In order to defeat the powerful Donglin Party, he did not hesitate to defile himself and fully support Father-in-law Wei!
And what about the former Emperor Chongzhen?
His reaction was not as good as that of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and his methods were even more incomparable to his brother.
After being fooled by the Donglin Party, he just understood their faces, but he didn't take action to clear them.
Therefore, in order to deal with the Donglin Party, Wen Tiren, who did not have the support of the emperor, always used intrigue and trickery.
However, since it is a conspiracy, it will not see the light, and there will be a time when it will be exposed, no matter how ingenious the design is?
Eventually, Wen Tiren was planted on this.
In the tenth year of Chongzhen, Wen Tiren, in order to clean up the Donglin boss Qian Qianyi, asked people to buy Zhang Hanru, the master of Changshu County, and came forward to accuse Qian Qianyi of embezzling local money and grain, selling the quota of students, and smuggling 58 crimes.
Among them, the crimes of embezzling local money and grain and selling the quota of students are real, but the smuggling is a false accusation that the water is too cool and Qianyi.
However, if Wen Tiren doesn't have such a felony, where can he get rid of Donglin boss Qian Qianyi?
Immediately, Wen Tiren drafted an order to arrest Qian Qianyi and put him in prison.
After Shui Tailiang was imprisoned, he knew that Wen Tiren wanted to put himself to death, so he asked someone to ask Cao Huachun, the eunuch of ceremonies, for help.
Cao Huachun and Qian Qianyi had a good personal relationship, and they knew that he was wronged, so they agreed to help rescue him.
Originally, Cao Huachun and Wen Tiren, one was the chief eunuch of the inner court, and the other was the first assistant of the outer court, and they were both the most trusted people of Emperor Chongzhen, and they had always been safe and sound.
But as Cao Huachun intervened in the matter, the two immediately collided.
In the end, both sides lose.
There is no doubt that in this unexpected struggle, it was the Donglin Party that benefited the most.
With the ouster of Wen Tiren, no one in the Ming court was no longer an opponent of the Donglin Party, and no one could restrain them from acting recklessly.
Of course, in the end, they didn't end well.
A few years later, with the entry of Jiannu and the demise of the Ming Dynasty, these Donglin Party members either lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, or could not afford to die in the army, or shaved their heads and passed on the second minister......
In short, the Ming Dynasty is gone, and they can no longer be infinitely beautiful.
The country is broken, the home is gone, everyone is a refugee!
PS: Zhuqing, everything is slowly recovering, it's really dangerous to think about it......
