At this critical juncture, Fang Yuan had a move and turned off the power of the DV machine, and the prompt sound disappeared.

Fang Yuan put the DV machine back into the sleeve of the brocade suit, spread his hands and said, "The grandfather is too careful, maybe it's the rat barking!" ”

Tian Hongyu frowned, he also noticed that Fang Yuan's actions might be abnormal, but the existence of the DV machine was still far beyond his cognition, although he was suspicious, he didn't expect that every word and deed was secretly filmed by Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan saw that he didn't continue to dig into the roots, and he was busy knowing that he was going to go out of Gong, and when he went to the toilet room in the observation tower, he took advantage of the fact that there was no one around, replaced the battery of the DV machine with a new one, turned on the DV machine again, and returned to the third floor of the observation building.

After a small turmoil, Fang Yuan once again pointed the DV machine with the battery changed in the direction and continued to start secretly shooting.

Tian Hongyu let out a long sigh and said, "Fang Yuan, it's you who really don't want to die!" You want to know the truth, I'll give you a chance, you ask me to answer, I only answer yes and no. After this time, you should stop using my daughter and the emperor and grandson to drive a wedge between our father, daughter, and grandchildren. ”

His tone finally began to loosen, Fang Yuan secretly called out that there was a play, and forcibly suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and said, "Just ask the national master to teach you." I won more with less and annihilated the Houjin Tartar, and the grandfather of the country originally wanted to recruit in his heart, yes or no? ”

Since he was willing to confide in his heart, Fang Yuan also started with the questioning that brought the relationship between the two closer.

Tian Hongyu didn't hesitate at all, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Fang Yuan followed his words and said, "This great achievement, I originally wanted to share a share of the national abbot, and the national abbot went to ask His Majesty for credit, it was originally a win-win deal, but the national abbot turned around and stated to His Majesty my five crimes, the ostensible reason is because of a Chen Yuan, or tens of thousands of taels of gold, in fact, it is because the national abbot and the Donglin Party colluded together, yes or no?" ”

Tian Hongyu lowered his gaze and said, "Yes." ”

Fang Yuan asked again, "The national father-in-law forcibly arrested Chen Yuan, but framed me for arresting him, at least half of the purpose is to stink my reputation in Jiangnan, yes or no?" ”

Tian Hongyu said, "Yes, what is a mere Chen Yuan? What is tens of thousands of taels of gold? I, Tian Hongyu, am not stupid enough to be the enemy of the powerful celebrant for a woman, a little gold! ”

Fang Yuan asked, "It's not the father-in-law who wants me to die, but Qian Qianyi's Donglin Party members, my trip to Jiangnan is too popular, which makes them feel uneasy, they will never allow me to return to Jiangnan again, yes or no?" ”

"Yes!"

"The grandfather of the country is preparing to turn to the Jiangnan Donglin Party, so killing us was originally a letter of nomination handed over by the grandfather to the Jiangnan Donglin Party, yes or no?"

"Yes!"

Tian Hongyu was born as a businessman and a ranger after all, and he was quite heroic when it came to the end, so he readily recognized it, "Fang Yuan, you are a stone in the toilet, smelly and hard, you don't know the current affairs, and you dare to be the enemy of the Donglin Party in the south of the Yangtze River." Since you burned down the Qianyun Tower, Qian Qianyi and Qian Longti found me the next day, asking me to kill you by all means, and I can't allow you to return to Jiangnan. ”

Fang Yuan asked again, "I'm afraid it's not only Qian Qianyi and Qian Longti, but also Mrs. Qian, Liu Ru, right!" ”

Fang Yuan suspected that Liu Ru was also involved, just because among the five charges against Tian Hong, at least one of the poems about the death of the country was a poem about the death of the country, which was the poem "Night Park Qinhuai" that he read, and this poem was only heard by Liu Ru.

The deeper the communication between the two, the more Tian Hongyu said, "Yes, these five charges are also calculated by us, Mrs. Qian originally wanted to recruit you, as a military person launched by the Donglin Party, Jiangnan gentry, and wealthy businessmen, to build an army that can protect the safety of Jiangnan from the invasion of war, but I never thought that you had formed an indissoluble deep enmity with the Donglin Party." ”

Only then did Fang Yuan know that Liu Ru came to make peace with a thousand silver, not only to save Qian Longti, but also to take a fancy to Fang Yuan's talent after the defeat on the battlefield, and wanted to recruit him to join the Donglin Party, establish an army, and protect the safety of the gentry and wealthy merchants in Jiangnan.

It's just that her kindness was rejected by Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan found that there was indeed a serious misjudgment of Liu Ru, a famous prostitute in Jiangnan. Before, he thought that Liu Ru was just a poet, but now it seems that Liu Ru is a politician.

In fact, in the cracks of historical records, it has long been explained that Liu Ru, the head of Qin Huai Bayan, has energy.

She can arrange the famous prostitute Dong Xiaowan to redeem herself at will, which shows that her status is far above the other seven famous prostitutes of Qin Huai Bayan;

She is familiar with many celebrities from the Jiangnan Donglin Party, Fushe, and several societies, which shows that she can eat all the literati of all factions;

Later, when the Southern Ming Dynasty was established, she was able to rely on her friendship with the eunuch Ruan Dacheng to arrange Qian Qianyi into the Hongguang Imperial Court as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, which shows that she is also very important in the minds of the eunuchs;

Later, Qian Qianyi was arrested and imprisoned for the anti-Qing case, and it was she who ran around with her connections and rescued Qian Qianyi, which shows that she is also familiar with the traitor officials who defected to the Manchu Dynasty.

This woman is by no means a famous prostitute like Dong Xiaowan and Chen Yuanyuan, who serves people with sex and art, but has a wide range of contacts in the Qinglou world, cultural circles, and even political circles in the south of the Yangtze River, even surpassing Qian Qianyi, an old traitor.

Before the crossing, she was a woman who ate the entertainment industry, cultural circle, and military and political circles, where would she be a simple poet and talented woman?

Fang Yuan thought back to Liu Ruye's smile, she was indeed a very fascinating woman, she secretly collected her thoughts, took a sip of tea, and continued to ask, "The father-in-law brought 40,000 taels of gold to Jiangnan, and he really wanted to defect to the Jiangnan Donglin Party, yes or no?" ”

Tian Hongyu said truthfully, "Yes, Songjin was defeated and lost outside the gate; Kaifeng was besieged, and the city was about to be broken. Daming is almost over, and I have to plan for the future of the Tian family. ”

Fang Yuan asked again, "What about the two little princes?" ”

Tian Hongyu glanced at him obliquely and said, "I spent money to buy the Donglin Party in Jiangnan, just to fight for a place for my two imperial grandchildren!" ”

Fang Yuan suddenly realized that Tian Hongyu's ambition was far more than fleeing to Jiangnan, but arranging a way back for the two little princes. If the capital really falls, and the small court in Jiangnan wants to establish a new emperor, the two little princes, as the sons and daughters of Emperor Chongzhen, are also qualified to be established as the emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

At this point in the conversation between the two, Tian Hongyu has already explained all the plans and the original situation, as long as the secretly filmed video is handed over to Emperor Chongzhen and Tian Guifei in front of him, it is enough to clear Fang Yuan's grievances.

Fang Yuan turned off the DV in his sleeve and said goodbye to him, "Master Guo, I have already asked if the concubine wants to ask, so I will leave." ”

He was about to turn around and leave, when Tian Hongyu, who was behind him, suddenly asked, "Fang Yuan, I have always had something unclear, and I have promoted your reputation in Jiangnan, why do you have to go against the Donglin Party in Jiangnan?" As Mrs. Qian said, isn't it the best policy for everyone to sit down and have a good time drinking and chatting with each other, and to build another set of military and political systems in Jiangnan? ”

Tian Hongyu's statement was indeed extremely attractive to Fang Yuan, but Fang Yuan had his own views on the situation in front of him.

Whether it is the so-called Fuming, self-reliance, or surrender, these are just superficial slogans.

Fang Yuan was facing the situation at this time, only by introducing a large number of Taobao system goods into the Ming Dynasty and improving the productivity level of this era, the military level could resist the invasion of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, in essence, there were only three ways to go.

First, when he was a rogue, he robbed gold and silver everywhere. This road seems to be very cool, and there is no need to go back to the capital to suffer from the nest, but it will never work. Li Zicheng, as a giant with 400,000 soldiers, did torture tens of millions of taels of silver in the capital, but the result was still a fiasco and he died. Replaced by Fang Yuan, the power is not as good as Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, if you want to start robbing, it is still unknown how much gold and silver you can grab, and you will only lose faster and worse.

Second, to be the agent of the Jiangnan gentry and wealthy merchants. This is also the path that Tian Hongyu and Liu Rushi and others wanted him to take before.

However, if you choose to cooperate with the Donglin Party, gentry, and wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan, everything will be restricted. Although there is a Taobao system, what is lacking is gold and silver. Emperor Chongzhen spent seventeen years unable to collect land tax, industrial and commercial tax, and mining tax from these powerful and wealthy merchants, and he also failed to collect it after compromising with himself.

At that time, what can be the difference between the lack of money and the dilemma of lack of money faced by Emperor Chongzhen at this time? What is the difference between it and the puppet Nanming Hongguang court later? It's just sitting in Jiangnan and waiting for the Manchu Qing to come to the door, and then it will be destroyed.

If Fang Yuan did not have the principles of action and national righteousness, instead of compromising with the Donglin Party, it would be better to compromise directly with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he would be able to achieve a stable life of wealth and prosperity.

Third, to be an agent of the Beijing Imperial Court. This is also the path that Fang Yuan has been walking now.

Although this road is currently stumbling, it is the only way out for Fang Yuan after careful consideration.

coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, sat in Beijing and looked at the south of the Yangtze River.

The situation of the Ming Dynasty is inferior, and in order to confront the huge rogues, and even the Manchu Eight Banners that dominate the world, it is necessary to break the big and establish a new order.

Fang Yuan's thoughts were like a tide in his mind, he stopped suddenly, turned around and looked at Tian Hongyu and said, "Tian Guozhang, if it was just for myself, of course I would choose to compromise, but ......"

His eyes burst out with two terrifying gleam, and he said in a deep voice, "I am different from the Donglin Party, and the gentry and rich businessmen in Jiangnan who knock on the marrow and suck blood, and we must distinguish the winner and loser!" ”

Fang Yuan is a person who makes Tian Hongyu respectful and angry.

Tian Hongyu also has a bit of chivalry, Fang Yuan is a kind of person, making friends and being a confidant, there is nothing to say; But when it comes to the future and fate of the Tian family, Tian Hongyu has no choice but to put Fang Yuan to death.

Tian Hongyu stared at Fang Yuan's back and said in a deep voice, "In that case, Fang Zongqi, let's do it ourselves!" ”

Fang Yuan left the observation tower without looking back, and the next thing was to meet Tian Guifei and Emperor Chongzhen!
