Chapter 349: Enemies and Friends

Half a month after the explosion of Wang Gongchang, the Emperor of the Apocalypse issued a holy decree to recall the Donglin Party that had been deposed in the last "court turmoil", Zhang Pengyong, Xue Wenzhou, Tang Dazhang and other Donglin Party members returned to the imperial court again, and the officials were reinstated; As for Sun Yueling, the head of Donglin, he returned to the temple in a high-profile manner under the heated discussion of the government and the opposition and the public recommendation, and became an important minister in the court.

Originally, according to the meaning of Huang Liji, the first assistant, he wanted to be promoted to the second rank of the military department to add a book, in order to thank him for helping him to become the first assistant, but the cabinet is not he alone can be completely in charge, under the instruction of Wei Zhongxian, Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu vigorously opposed the promotion of Sun Yueling, so after some discussion and compromise, Sun Yueling was still awarded according to the official title of the previous three grades, and the official worshiped the right attendant of the Ministry of Officials.

In fact, Wei Zhongxian was very reluctant to see Sun Yueling return to the imperial court, but his henchmen had broken their wings, and he had lost the grace of the apocalypse, so he had to agree to Huang Liji's request, and Huang Liji presented him with the account books of Wei Party members' corruption and bribery.

Although Sun Yueling was not promoted to the second rank of the court official, it was still the previous grade, but Huang Liji won a good position for him - the Ministry of Officials was the head of the six departments, and he controlled the management, promotion, and assessment of Ming officials, which can be said to be extremely important. More importantly, Wang Shaowei, the secretary of the ministry, was dismissed earlier because of greed, and the chief official of the ministry is still vacant.

The rule of officials is the foundation of the country, the first thing Sun Yueling did after returning to the court was to vigorously rectify the discipline, which he learned from Zhao Nanxing, the former leader of the Donglin Party, although Zhao Nanxing's policy of governing the country was not agreed with him, but he still strongly agreed, only by abandoning those people who are superficial and scattered in discipline, can we bring better improvement to the Ming court, and Zhao Nanxing formulated these rules and regulations, but can well stop the casual behavior of courtiers, and restrain their code of conduct.

Of course, he is a little different from Zhao Nanxing, although Zhao Nanxing vigorously regulates the program of the dynasty, but he does not rule out using this opportunity to purge dissidents and crack down on political opponents who disagree, so as to achieve the goal of Donglin's government affairs, even if the other party is an official who is loyal to the Ming court.

Under his leadership, a large number of low-level officials with strong ability and who were familiar with the rule of officials were brought into play, and they all played their roles in their respective familiar fields, including not only the Donglin Party, but even those officials of the three parties who had opposed Donglin, and even Guo Yunhou, Yang Jingchen and others, who were highly regarded by Wei Zhongxian, were highly respected by him, and repeatedly wrote to the Emperor of the Apocalypse to ask for their praise.

At this time when the state affairs are difficult, internal and external troubles, if the DPRK and China are still fighting endlessly, then everyone's energy and enthusiasm will be exhausted in internal friction, no wonder the huge ship of the Ming Dynasty will gradually sink, and it will eventually be taken advantage of by others - but Ye Xianggao's strategy is obviously too soft, and blindly retreating to make way is not a good way, only to show the strength of the party and show the muscles of Donglin on the basis of taking a step back, Only by working together with other parties can we achieve a win-win situation.

From the standpoint of later generations, Ye Xianggao's strategy may have a clear purpose and a feasible reason, but the methods and methods are wrong. Sun Yueling has thought carefully about this issue and believes that there are at least three opportunities in history that can be changed, and each opportunity will affect the overall situation, affect the dynasty, and even the entire world.

The first opportunity is that during the reign of Ye Xianggao and Zhao Nanxing, the Donglin Party and the three parties attacked each other, if it were not for the same Zhao Nanxing Party, maybe under Ye Xianggao's roundabout strategy, the Donglin Party may not be able to reach a tacit understanding with the three parties, and work together to contribute to the Ming Dynasty and fulfill their responsibilities for the people of the Son of Heaven.

The second opportunity was when Emperor Chongzhen rectified the eunuch party, obviously the Donglin party led by Han Kuang and Qian Longxi did not want to chase and beat the eunuch members, but planned to correct their first evil, and the rest were sentenced lightly, but Emperor Chongzhen was just arbitrary, insisted on going his own way, and insisted on killing all the eunuch party members, which led to the contradiction between Donglin and the Wei party once again deepened and became a chronic disease.

The third opportunity is the Hongguang period of the Southern Ming Dynasty, in the later period of the Donglin Party Shi Kefa and Qian Qianyi originally planned to give up their prejudices with Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng and other "pro-blessing factions" and jointly support Sheji, but unfortunately the diehards in the Donglin Party Lu Daqi, Liu Zongzhou and others had to liquidate the "King James Reverse Case" and did not allow the so-called "eunuch elements" to enter the imperial court, so the party struggle continued from Beijing to Nanjing, and tossed until the fall of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

The first opportunity has been missed, and the second opportunity is coming, so Sun Yueling's main energy now is to put on eliminating the party struggle in the court, this thing cannot be done overnight, can only take the way of boiling frogs in warm water, step by step, imperceptibly, try to mix everyone to seek more things, less people, of course, the most important point is to influence the king of letters, take advantage of the fact that he is not yet in the court, take advantage of the fact that he is not yet in the court, and instill some truth in this regard to him, so that he knows the pros and cons of the party struggle, Try to keep the party struggle under control.

Doing these things is easier said than done, if you really want to achieve your goal, you can't succeed in a year and a half, Sun Yueling knows that he can't force it, and now he can only take one step at a time and do his best.

……

Deshengmen Street, 36th Lobby.

The two sat a few times apart, Gu Zi sipping tea, it was Wu Chengde and Sun Yueling. Sun Yueling came here today to say goodbye to Wu Chengde.

When Wang Gong's factory exploded, Wu Chengde, Mu Wan, Lin Chunwei and others were scattered by the huge earthquake and strong wind, but fortunately, they were not bad, but they were slightly injured; The most seriously injured was Fang Yichen, who was strong in martial arts, he was swept directly into the sky by the strong wind, drifted horizontally for several miles, and finally floated to the foot of the West Mountain before falling back to the ground. But all of this is his own fault, relying on his strong martial arts to break into the dragon whirlwind to save people, but instead of saving others, he misled himself, and was shocked with a lot of internal injuries.

Now Fang Yichen has been placed in the Fenghua Society to recuperate, and Mu Wan and Lin Chunwei took the remnants of the Citigroup Society who surrendered to hide in a secret house in the Beijing Division, of course, the location is only known to Sun Yueling, and when the time is ripe, they will be brought together in the Fenghua Society.

As for Wu Chengde, because Yuan Tiangang's martial arts have been lost, he has become the actual leader of the Thirty-six Dao. The foundation of the Thirty-six Dao has always been in Shanxi, and although they are currently attached to Donglin and have greatly expanded their business in the Jingshi, if the foundation is not stable, everything will be in vain.

Now that Yuan Tiangang's martial arts have been abolished, without his suppression, those who are in charge of the 36 Shanxi rudders can hardly guarantee that they will not have chaos at this time, so Wu Chengde must go to Shanxi to sit in the town for a period of time. Sun Yueling came here today, firstly, to say goodbye to him, and secondly, to entrust him with important matters.

Wu Chengde turned his head and said with a puzzled face: "Brother Sun, why do you look serious and have a heavy mood, you are back in the court now, you should be proud of the spring breeze and full of joy, right?" ”

Sun Yueling smiled bitterly and said, "Brother De, don't tease me, others don't know me, don't you know me?" I can be regarded as trembling now, walking on thin ice, but if there is a small mistake, I will be caught by those imperial historians, and some people in the eunuch party still regard me as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, and they want to drive me out of the center as soon as possible, you say, I can be happy? ”

"That's the truth!" Wu Chengde shook his head and sighed, "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, if you want to make some achievements, you have to endure the pain that ordinary people can't bear!" ”

Sun Yueling was surprised, squinted at him and said: "I can't see it, Master De, you are full of truth now, you are indeed no longer the martial arts Ameng of the past, you really succeeded in counterattacking, it was in vain to be the turtle slave in Nanjing!" ”

"Damn, haven't you done that?" Wu Chengde rolled his eyes and said angrily, "How can Lao Tzu have a friend like you, who has no good words all day long, and specializes in exposing people's shortcomings!" ”

Sun Yueling laughed and said: "It is precisely because we are good friends and good brothers that I will speak freely in front of you, haven't you heard this sentence, 'Friendship is not seen with eyes, a person often becomes friends with an unexpected person at the strangest time and the strangest place, and even they themselves don't know how this feeling comes from.' ’”

"I think I've heard that somewhere." Wu Chengde frowned, and muttered: "I think that friends are not distinguished from dignity and poverty, high or low occupation, friends are friends, and friends are people who have a trace of warmth in their hearts when the weather is cold." ”

"Thumbs up!" Sun Yueling gave him a thumbs up and said, "Therefore, it is not a shame to find friends when you are in difficulty. Now I'm here with something to ask for! ”

"I'll go, is our friendship so strong?" Wu Chengde stared at him fiercely.

"A friend is a friend, nothing can replace it, there is never anything to describe it - even all the roses in the world, plus all the flowers in the world, can not compare with the fragrance and beauty of friendship" Sun Yueling said with a serious face, "Although a lover is new and good, friends are always old and good." This is a famous quote of Xiong Daxia, we can't help but believe it! ”

"Which bear hero?"

"Kung Fu Panda, haven't you heard of it?"

"What the hell is that?" Wu Chengde muttered and said, "I've only heard that the only thornless rose in the world is friendship!" ”

Sun Yueling pursed his lips and said, "I hope these words are not outdated, otherwise we will not only say it in vain, but also make people dislike!" ”

Wu Chengde shouted: "Enough is enough, stop and stop, if you keep talking, even I will get goosebumps." What the hell are you looking for me, tell me quickly! ”
