In the lobby of Xue Guoguan's mansion, the second assistant Xue Guoguan in the Iron Lion Hutong, Feng Ying, the secretary of the criminal department, Xie Sheng, the secretary of the ministry, Zhou Zuo, the left imperial historian of the Imperial Inspectorate, Yuan You, the servant of the ministry, and Chen Xinjia, the right attendant of the military department, all sat around the round table and drank tea and talked.

Most of these people are the existing Donglin Party members in the DPRK and China, or representatives of large merchants in Jiangnan. Since Wang Yue's article, they have all been a little resentful, and even Qian Qianyi, who was idle at home after being dismissed, also came, and he was the leader of the Donglin Party.

Yuan You, the servant of the ministry, laughed and said: "That Wang Yue really doesn't know the height of the sky, and a little soldier actually talked to the Korean envoy about the annexation, and the emperor is not angry." ”

Since the last time he failed to impeach Zhou Kui against Wang Yue, Yuan You has been looking for an opportunity, but he didn't expect Wang Yue to jump up and commit public anger this time.

Shang Zhouzuo, who was wearing a long shirt in green clothes, snorted and said: "Wang Yue's ignorant boy knows what national affairs, relying on his money, and he has just made new contributions, and he has been named a petty official, and he doesn't know what his surname is!" I see that his words will soon become a laughing stock in the DPRK and China. ”

Everyone present laughed when they heard this, and even felt that the four words Mu Monkey and the crown were quite suitable for that Wang Yue.

Feng Ying, the secretary of the Criminal Department with a cold expression, said: "Wang Yue is so reckless, as an official of the imperial court and does not respect himself, according to me, the emperor should be punished." ”

He took advantage of Chongzhen's dissatisfaction with Wang Yue and joined Wang Yue's book, but Xie Baoqing ran out and stirred it up. What do you say Wang Yue is only sixteen years old this year, he has not been an official for a long time, he has no experience or anything, and he will become a great weapon with more experience.

Xue Guoguan said bitterly: "Lord Xie is also in the same vein as Donglin, but he is in the same breath as that Wang Yue, and ignores the teachings of his ancestor Lord Zuo, which is a pity!" ”

His tone was as if Xie Baoqing had gone astray. It is as if they have gone further and further away from the right path.

Shang Zhouzuo snorted heavily: "Xie Baoqing is not greedy for Wang Yue's wealth, just open his eyes with him." ”

In fact, Xie Baoqing is the one who has suffering, and in order to hold Wang Yue, a stubborn donkey who may turn the Jingshi upside down at any time, he has taken great pains. He really hasn't gotten much money from Wang Yue, there are small favors and small favors, which are considered normal economic exchanges, compared to Wang Yue's massive wealth, it is nothing at all.

Xie Sheng, the secretary of the ministry, said a fair word: "Lord Xie was promoted so quickly, and it was also because of Wang Yue. Its gratitude to the picture is still understandable. ”

Xie Bao cleared up the pants with Wang Yue, and he was also sleek, and he was unreasonable in other aspects.

Feng Yingdao: "Since Wang Yue put forward the conditions, does he really have the intention of sending troops to North Korea?" It would be great if that were the case. ”

Although Wang Yue's proposal of the conditions attached to Korea is unreliable, Wang Yue's willingness to send troops has been taken seriously by them.

Xue Guoguan said: "It's a pity, if Elder Wen Ge is also in favor of sending troops, this discussion will be successful!" ”

The reason why they are in favor of sending troops is that they know that the only army that can move now is the Tiance Army. As long as Wang Yue sent troops, their opportunity would come, and they would be framed, stumbling, and dragging their feet, but they were all good at it.

Or on the grounds of Wang Yue's low grade, they can also operate an important minister to lead the troops, suppress Wang Yue's head, and then find a reason to click Wang Yue off, it would be perfect, just like the story of Yuan Chonghuan and Mao Wenlong.

Of course, it would be better if Wang Yue was defeated, with their three-inch tongue, they could completely put the responsibility for the defeat on Wang Yue's head, so that he would not die and shed his skin.

Wen Tiren's subordinate defeated Qian Qianyi sneered beside him and said: "Wen Tiren never easily expresses his opinions when encountering major events, this is his magic weapon to protect himself." ”

These people sat together because an enemy like Wang Yue suddenly appeared. Wang Yue doesn't look at the grade is not high, the size is also an official of the imperial court, and he has a number in Chongzhen's mind, and the old father-in-law is a top noble, they really can't handle it at will.

Then find Wang Yue's loophole and kill him to become their choice, these people are all good at political struggle.

It's a pity that their understanding of Wang Yue's strength is too shallow, and the most intuitive understanding is obtained from the number of troops, and it is no secret that there are more than 9,000 people in the Tiance army now. The Tiance army is very capable of fighting, and the Yue family army and the Qi family army are very capable of fighting in history, so what? It is the emperor and the court who have the final say, this is due to inertia, they don't know that Wang Yue is an alternative.

In the end, Qian Qianyi mentioned a more feasible idea, if you want to eliminate the influence of "Ming Pao" on the world, the most effective way is to defeat it in the same place.

On running a newspaper, we literati who claim to be leading the trend of the times have no reason to lose to the vernacular "Ming Pao" in writing.

Qian Qianyi's proposal was appreciated by everyone present, and he deserved to be the leader of the Donglin Party. For a while, the words of praise were overwhelming, so that the frustrated leader seemed to have found the feeling of being in the court back then.

Everyone present here was a big man in the court, so they moved quite quickly, and they immediately discussed issues such as naming, addressing, recruiting personnel, and even the source of the manuscript, and in less than an hour, they discussed a general framework.

A few days later, a newspaper called "Rulin Bao" was released.

Looking at the first printed newspaper sample, Qian Qianyi shook his head helplessly, the printing quality of this printing cannot be compared with "Ming Pao".

Engraving printing is beautiful, but it is expensive, and the cycle of producing a plate is usually calculated in months, which cannot guarantee the timeliness of the newspaper. Even if you use engraving, you can't compare with the "Ming Pao", so you can only choose movable type printing, which is even worse.

The various technologies of the starting point city have been recognized by many people, and there is no way to be inferior to others.

In the end, it was Xue Guoguan who clapped his hands and said: "Accept it (Qian Qianyizi), publish it, the article we are waiting for is difficult to compare with "Ming Pao". ”

His words were approved by everyone, and this newspaper was written by many of their colleagues and scholars who racked their brains, and the momentum was comparable to that of Qiu Yu's examination.

"Rulin Daily" was presided over by Qian Qianyi, who was idle at home, and also learned from "Ming Pao" to print 10,000 copies and distribute them free of charge throughout the city.

The people don't refuse to come to the free things, and you can take them home and pack things. As a result, when I got my hand and looked at it, I found that the whole text was written in classical Chinese, and the whole piece was a person. Many of the articles are written in an unusually obscure and difficult way to understand without a deep literary foundation.
