When Hua Xue was teaching Chen Yuan mathematics, Chongzhen and his entourage had already left the government and went to Tiger Hill Bantangye Fangbang.

After discussing the itinerary with Chen Hongmi yesterday, there was an accompanying Jinyiwei who explored the road once, and Chen Hongmi accompanied him to guide the way, which can be regarded as a familiar road.

Chen Hongmi naturally did not wear the uniform of the prefect, and was dressed as a rich man. Even Chen Hongmi, who is close to the people on weekdays, but where do the people dare to raise their heads when they see the prefect? Therefore, he is not afraid of being recognized by ordinary people. Even if there are a few people who recognize it, dare to disturb the prefect to go out on patrol after eating the ambitious leopard?

Yefangbang is located on the bank of the Bantang River, looking at the northwest, is the beautiful scenery of Tiger Hill, and has always been the most lively place in Suzhou. If it is the Dragon Boat Festival, there are more dragon boats, and tourists are weaving. If you come here at night, the talented and beautiful woman is boating on the river, and the painting boat is continuous, among which the beauty, compared to the Qinhuai River, has a unique style of Suzhou.

Chen Hongmian took Chongzhen naturally not to look for flowers and ask willows, but at this time, the talented and beautiful people on the river have already gone home to make up for sleep, and the people they met along the road are serious merchants and tourists, but they will not see any embarrassing scenes.

The goal of everyone is the Togetsu Tower in Noyoshihamaguchi.

This Deyue Building was built in the Jiajing period, there are many literati and elegant guest inscriptions and poems, and it is also a well-known time-honored brand of about 100 years.

On the moon floor, I asked for a private room, Chen Hongmi and Wang Chengen sat with Chongzhen, and the Jinyi guards stood at the door and window. ordered the first choice of Taihu Lake whitebait, the second choice of Yangtze River saury, Chongzhen and Chen Hongmi are used to frugality, and they want one hot, two cold and three dishes to make up enough for five flavors.

The wine is not drunk, Chen Hongmi brought some "scaring incense" with him, Wang Chengen asked for a tea set and boiled tea.

Chongzhen asked about the origin of this Deyue Tower, and Chen Hongmi replied: "Speaking of this Deyue Tower, you have to talk about Zhang Fengyi." Zhang Fengyi presented a poem to the moon and the clouds: the seven-mile causeway is lined with a picture screen, and the tower is faintly wicker green. The mountain prince sat down unevenly, and the water tune song was listened to intermittently. Flying flowers on the other side of the river, ride around, and stop at the Mengu wine passenger boat. I often get drunk as a mountain man, and I don't want to wake up. ”

Chongzhen was very strange: "Zhang Fengyi has been to Suzhou? I remember that he was from Shanxi and had been an official in the north, when did he come to Suzhou? ”

Zhang Fengyi mentioned it when he introduced Yang Sichang earlier. Last year, the Jianyu entered the fortress for the third time, which lasted more than four months, and the troops galloped through the Gyeonggi area, winning more than 50 battles of all sizes, capturing a large number of people and animals. And the secretary of the military department at that time was Zhang Fengyi.

Chongzhen's change in the second year of his own life, the same was the invasion of Gyeonggi by Jianyu, Wang Qia, who was the secretary of the military department at the time, died in prison and was sentenced to behead by Chongzhen, as for Yuan Chonghuan, who was the overseer of Liaodong at that time, he was cut by Chongzhen with a thousand knives, and Ling Chi raided his home.

With these two lessons from the past, Zhang Fengyi Alexander, and then overdosed on the medicine to lower the fire, and died in early September last year. As for whether it was intentional to take more medicine for fear of suicide, or whether the illness could not be suppressed and the medicine could not be stopped, no one else knew except the person concerned.

After Zhang Fengyi's death, the disposition of the imperial court came down, and the official was dismissed and dismissed, but there was no whipping corpse.

Zhang Fengyi has been supervising the war at the border all the year round, and most of the poems he wrote are Biansai poems, and he can be regarded as a famous Biansai poet. So Chongzhen is not surprised that Zhang Fengyi can write poetry.

Of course, Zhang Fengyi was born as the second Jinshi in the second class of the 41st year of Wanli, in other words, the fifth place in the national liberal arts, it is certainly not strange that he can write poems, and there is a problem if he can't write. In other words, it is a big joke that there are civil officials in the Ming Dynasty who can't write poems. Therefore, Hua Xue said that Zhou Daodeng pretended to be stupid, and Chongzhen and others would believe that it was strange that people who came out of the imperial examination did not know such a simple text problem.

Chongzhen's strange thing is that with his understanding of Zhang Fengyi, he has never been to Suzhou in his entire resume, let alone having a banquet with people in this Deyue Tower? Could it be that when he was supervising the army in the north, he dared to leave his post without permission and go to Suzhou to drink? Why? What's the picture?

Chen Hongmi smiled and said: "Back to Your Majesty, this Zhang Fengyi is not the other Zhang Fengyi." ”

Then he explained: "This Zhang Fengyi is a native of Changzhou, Suzhou Prefecture, Jiajing 43 years of people, good at opera, also good at poetry, and his younger brother Yanyi, Xianyi and have a talent name, the name of the time is 'Sanzhang'. ”

"Forty-three years of Jiajing?" Chongzhen was a little sensitive.

Chen Hongmi was stunned for a moment before he realized the special significance of Jiajing's forty-three years, shook his head, and replied: "It's just a normal imperial examination, it should have nothing to do with that incident." ”

Chongzhen nodded, he also reflected that he was sensitive. There are large and small imperial examinations every year, and it has nothing to do with the restriction of internal forces. It's just that the day before yesterday just talked about this vintage, and today I suddenly heard it and inevitably had the illusion that there was a connection.

Then I remembered another Zhang Fengyi.

When the army was defeated last year, he hated his incompetence deeply, and even after his death, he was angry, so he removed his official position, and the bereavement benefits that normal officials should enjoy after their death were naturally not given at all.

It wasn't until after Yang Sichang took office that the two talked about last year's defeat. Yang Sichang analyzed the situation between the enemy and us since the change of his own life, and Chongzhen realized that the problems were not all on Zhang Fengyi alone, and all kinds of difficulties could not be done better even if he changed people. At least Yang Sichang claimed that in that case, he might not be able to turn the tide.

Yang Sichang proposed that since Zhang Fengyi is dead, he hopes that he will not be held accountable, but should be compensated according to his normal official treatment.

Chongzhen trusted Yang Sichang, but on this issue, Chongzhen did not adopt Yang Sichang's opinion. Because he felt that when Yang Sichang looked at this issue, he would inevitably be affected by his father Yang He's pension issue, so he would judge with emotion.

Originally, when I went to Suzhou this time, I also wanted to ask for some opinions from Yiren on military issues, after all, those who were proficient in astronomy recorded in the book, such as Zhuge Liang and Xu Maogong, were all proficient in the art of war. Chongzhen was obviously a little sick and rushed to the doctor on this issue, confusing some legends with historical materials. But maybe that's the real history on this plane?

However, after seeing Hua Xue, Chongzhen was not interested in asking relevant questions. A child, where does he know the art of war? Even if you understand, it must be just talk on paper, and you have no actual combat experience at all.

Thinking of Hua Xue, he thought of the gentleman who taught Hua Xue, so he asked Chen Hongmi: "You have been in contact with Hua Xue for a while, and you should have investigated his roots." Who the hell is that gentleman? ”

Of course, Chen Hongmi investigated, but there was no conclusion.
