One day at the beginning of November, Gao Hongtu's mansion suddenly came to many children of the Donglin Restoration Society, namely Zuo Guangxian in the affairs of the matter, Huang Zongxi, Huang Zongxi, Zhou Bi in the Hubu Langzhong, and Hou Fangyu, a rookie in the Restoration Society. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the main hall, everyone sat down as guests and hosts, and Huang Zongxi, the son, suddenly asked: "Do you know who is loyal and who is traitorous in the court now?" ”

Gao Hongtu was taken aback when he heard this, he looked around cautiously, and said, "It seems that you all came to the mansion together today, it seems that it is not easy to agree in advance. Gao Mou was hospitable, a few days ago, Gao got a close friend of a pot of tea, called "Weishan Bailu", it is a treasure in the tea, for this special in the corner of the back hall specially opened a tea room, quite quiet, if you are interested, you may wish to move there with Gao to taste? ”

"I am very grateful for such a convenient gift." Huang Zongxi, Zhou Bi, and Hou Fangyu all heard the aftermath of Gao Hongtu's words, and knew that he was worried that the content of the conversation would be leaked, and they also had this intention, so they all got up and left their seats very cooperatively.

Everyone moved into the backyard tea room, greeted by the fragrant smell of tea, raised their eyes to see, only to see that the room is very wide, seems to be spotless, there are several large vats under the west wall, and a row of cabinets, but everyone is not on the tea at this time, when they return to their seats, Huang Zongxi is a little impatient to say: "Who is loyal and who is traitorous in the court, can you know the old man?" ”

Gao Hongtu smiled bitterly and said: "Taichong doesn't have to test Gao, Gao already knows what is happening in the court these days, how can I not be indignant!" Even the word "national thief" was almost used on Gao! ”

After speaking, he sighed again, and said with a hint of grievance: "Gao has always acted above board, with a clear conscience, and he has learned from the Shi Pavilion Department before, so he is not tolerated by the eunuch party traitors, who can know that I am loyal to the Ming Dynasty's pure heart?" ”

"Everyone knows the noble character of the old man!" Huang Zongxi clapped his hands and praised, leaned over to look at his lame leg, and the bitter hatred seemed to gush out of his chest: "However, when today's son is stupid and incompetent, listens to slander, does not defend loyalty and treachery, reuses traitors, and excludes loyalty, and now he is a fake Ruan thief, mutilating hundreds of friends, including many gentlemen and good ministers who died unjustly, it really makes me sad!" ”

After speaking, he said bitterly: "If we don't resist again, the three-hundred-year foundation of the Emperor Ming will definitely be destroyed by the hands of the faint monarch and Ma Ruan's traitors!" ”

"What Brother Taichong said is extremely true!" Hou Fangyu on the side also nodded thoughtfully.

In the rebellion two months ago, the ridicule and insult of the gentlemen by the rebels often dwelt in front of him, and the Son of Heaven not only did not seek justice for the gentlemen, but sang and made harmony with the Ma Ruan thieves, and every time he thought of this, a wave of anger surged in Hou Fangyu's heart.

I also planned to endure it before, such as today, I sent more and more letters to Ma Ruan and rebelled, and intensified the persecution of the gentlemen of the Donglin Restoration Society in the southern capital, resulting in hundreds of friends of the Donglin Restoration Society being beheaded and exiled, and the land, shops, gold and silver and other property were plundered by the brocade guards, which is a sign that the party members will be exterminated!

He Hou Fangyu is the son of the dignified military department Shangshu, and the rising star of the resumption of the society!

Although there is no official and no position, he also knows that what happened in the court is related to the future and fate of all the gentlemen of the Donglin Restoration Society, and the large-scale arrest and killing of party members and friends in the imperial court is a punishment for renegade courtiers, who knows if they will be done next, will they find a reason to exile them, or even behead them? Even if there is only half and half of the chance, it makes Hou Fangyu a little intolerable, he feels that the gentlemen of Donglin must fight back against the traitors,

Thinking of this, Hou Fangyu's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, and he said with a frosty face: "Without further ado, we should strike first, first go to Ma Ruan's traitorous ministers to Qingjun's side, kill chickens and monkeys, and then wait for the opportunity to wipe out the eunuchs in the southern capital!" After the thieves are killed, we will invite the senior giants such as Shi Gebu and Jiang Ge Lao to come out of the mountain, abolish the faint monarch, and support the Lu Domain. ”

Looking at the hateful eyes of everyone, Gao Hongtu also cherished each other in his heart, thanks to Ma Ruan's traitorous ministers, his family property and career were over, and his life became more and more embarrassing.

But he didn't expect that these Donglin juniors were so bold that they dared to act on the side of the Qing monarch and abolish the monarch, ten times more ruthless than his predecessors, I saw him smile bitterly and said: "What the Chaozong said is reasonable, it's just that Ma Ruan traitors usurped the dynasty and usurped the military power, most of our Donglin gentlemen are civilians, and there are no soldiers and no generals in their hands. ”

Hearing this, Hou Fangyu smiled proudly, and asked instead of answering: "Elder Yan, in your opinion, among the towns of the current dynasty, who has the most soldiers and the strongest combat power?" ”

Gao Hongtu said without thinking: "Naturally, it is Wuchang Zuozhen!" ”

"Then today, who does Zuo Zhen accept the most, and who does he listen to the most?"

Gao Hongtu said again without thinking: "Naturally, it is your father, Mr. Ruogu (Hou Sui's number)!" ”

After saying that, he immediately realized.

Hou Fangyu smiled and said, "As long as Zuo Zhen Kenna's father says, if you go south to the side of the Qing monarch, the thieves of Maruan will definitely die without a place to be buried!" ”

Huang Zongxi, Zuo Guangxian and others on the side also clenched their fists with both hands, with a look of recognition. The dim light reflected on everyone's white and beardless faces, revealing a gloomy atmosphere.

Gao Hongtu fell into deep thought when he heard this, his brows furrowed, obviously there was a fierce battle between heaven and man in his heart, and the abolition of the monarch was a taboo for people and ministers, it violated the ethics of the Gang, it was not the way of a gentleman, how could it be done easily until it was absolutely necessary?

It's just the current situation, Ma Ruan's thieves are quite emperor's heart, the monarchs and ministers are complicit, single-handedly concocting "shun case", taking the opportunity to make trouble, what they do is really mad, if they don't abolish the establishment, the gentlemen of Donglin, including him, I am afraid that it will be difficult to survive in the end.

Wuchang Zuozhen is known as the "800,000 army", standing in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, with strong troops.

If he is willing to be dispatched, go south to the side of the Qing monarch, ask for no ministers, and declare the right way for the gentlemen, it is a good way to fight back.

After a long time, Gao Hongtu sighed, he had made up his mind, and he nodded his head in agreement: "The old man thinks that this strategy is feasible, but the new emperor is currently in power for a short time, and the bad deeds have not yet been revealed, and the name of Zuo Zhen to raise troops is the key." There has to be a convincing name! If we can't occupy the righteousness, I'm afraid it will be difficult to block the mouth of the people in the world! ”

Hou Fangyu finally said that he had a high ambition, and he was very happy in his heart, with the behind-the-scenes support of this senior giant, he thought that the call would be a great achievement!

He patted his chest and said confidently: "I have planned this matter for a long time, and I will not disappoint the old-timers!" ”

"So, Gao is waiting for good news!" Gao Hongtu smiled and nodded.
