This is the first time that Mao Xiang has dealt with daily government affairs, and as Shi Kefa's staff, he has mastered the secrets. I came into contact with more things, and suddenly my horizons were broadened, and this was not what I could get from the previous study life or the private review of national politics.

is in the core decision-making circle of the Ministry of War, the daily affairs are complicated, and when I get busy, I seem to miss Dong Xiaowan a lot less. On the contrary, he felt full of strength.

For Mao Xiang, who was a staff member of Shi Kefa, deeply participated in the reconstruction of the Imperial Court of Liudu, and Mao Qizong, who was already so sick that he was about to be unable to walk, was also very encouraged. His thinking is the same as Fang Yizhi's, that is, let Mao Xiang occupy a position in the new dynasty first, accumulate contacts, and gain fame. When the new monarch ascends the throne and opens Enke, he will take the Jinshi exam and point Hanlin.

By that time, Mao Xiang was already an important figure in the military department of Liudu, and he made great contributions to Donglin. The examiner is reasonable and will take him. At worst, the top position of the second class is still possible.

The so-called imperial examination transcription system is not a problem at all for Mao Xiang, who has profound attainments in Bagu Wen. His articles have been all over the world, and any examiner can recognize him at a glance as soon as he gets his paper, even if he has his name obscured.

Shi Kefa had long heard of the name of Mao Bijiang, and he was very happy that he could enter his own scene, and he was also entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

However, Mao Xiang felt that this was not enough. I still need to do at least one big thing in order to get into the eyes of Shi Butang and get his support.

The question is, where exactly are the opportunities?

The Mao family originally had a house in Nanjing, but after coming to Nanjing, Mao Xiang lived with his parents, wife and children

。 He only went to the military department every morning on an errand, and if Shi Shangshu's affairs were not completed, he would have to go to Shi Fu.

Nanjing is the old capital after all, and there is not much else, that is, there are many nobles and people who eat official meals. The scene that happened in the court this morning quickly spread to the military headquarters.

Mao Xiang keenly felt that on the issue of Lilu or Lifu, if he could participate in it, it would be regarded as squeezing into the inner circle of Donglin.

Therefore, he was not in a hurry to go home that afternoon, but went to Shifu, intentionally or unintentionally dangling in front of Shi Kefa.

Shi Kefa still sat in front of the desk in the study with a worried face, spread out a piece of paper, and mentioned what he wanted to write. But after thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't put pen to paper for a long time.

Mao Xiang walked to Shi Kefa's side, refilled the inkstone, slowly sharpened the ink, and asked casually: "Is this going to be an official letter or a private letter?" If it is an official letter, you can do it for your later life. ”

"It's not an official letter, and it's certainly not a personal letter. Today's affairs in the court, you must also know about the frontier. ”

Mao Xiang nodded and said, "When I was on an errand in the military department, I also heard from my colleagues that Ma Yaocao belonged to the Yifu Domain. However, this is all a rumor, and it is just a matter of listening to it in later life, and it is not taken seriously. ”

Shi Kefa smiled bitterly: "This matter is true, although Ma Yaocao didn't talk much, but Lu Jiude and Liu Kongzhao supported King Lifu wholeheartedly, presumably Ma Yaocao also had the same thoughts." ”

Mao Xiang said slowly: "I heard that Lu Jiude served the old Fu King in the palace back then, and it is understandable that he wants to support the Fu Domain. As for Liu Kongzhao, he is the governor of Caojiang, and he has a close relationship with Lu Jiude, so it is not surprising that he wants to support King Fu. It's just that Shiying wants to establish a Fu Domain, and he feels that there is no justified reason for him to be born. ”

After that, a pool of ink had been grinded, and he asked with a smile: "The ministry is going to write a letter to Shiying?" ”

Hearing this question, Shi Kefa's eyes became sharp, and he looked at him brightly for a long time before nodding slowly: "The old man has heard of the fourth son of the Fushe for a long time, and Fang Mizhi strongly recommended Bijiang in front of the old man, saying that you have the talent to go through the heavens and the earth." The old man still didn't believe it, but you guessed what he was thinking today. Bijiang is really a talent. ”

"The students are terrified." Mao Xiang pretended to be pampered and not surprised: "The ministry wrote a letter to Shiying, presumably because he saw that Ma Shilang's attitude towards supporting blessings in the court today was not very resolute, and he wanted to fight for it."

。 This matter is very important, and the student will quit first. ”

"No, you are my Donglin gentleman, the old man can trust it. And you are in my scene again, the old man is not suspicious, and he is not suspicious. Shi Kefa took back his sharp gaze, became calm, and said with a wry smile: "I have been extremely disturbed in the past two days, the emperor is vacant, and I can't go on like this." The old man wanted to write a letter to Ma Yaocao, explaining the reason why the Fu Fan could not be established. It's just that when I mention the pen, I don't know what kind of reason to use. Bijiang, you are a famous talent in Jiangnan, how do you think this letter should be written? ”

Hearing this, he was shocked and said continuously: "The ministry can't, the ministry can't." ”

Shi Kefa was puzzled: "How do you say this?" ”

Mao Xiang hurriedly said: "As soon as you write this letter, it would be good if Ma Yaocao could realize your dedication to the country, repent, and turn to support the Lu Domain." If Ma Shiying had other thoughts, or if there was a case, once the letter of the ministry fell into his hands, wouldn't he give it to others. ”

He couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart: Shi Xianzhi's Shi Shangshu is too pedantic, whether he supports blessing or Lu, to put it bluntly, it is a battle for succession. Throughout the ages, I don't know how many people have died in this kind of thing. If you want to be independent, just do it, why don't you have so many worries. If you look ahead and look backward in this way, you will make things more and more troublesome.

"Jokes, what gives people a handle, no matter who is erected, the old man is out of a public heart, why not be afraid of people to comment." Shi Kefa disagreed: "If we blindly use force and support King Lu, causing Ma Yaocao, Lu Jiude, Liu Kongzhao and others to be dissatisfied, I am afraid that the army will be raised!" Therefore, the old man has to explain this matter to Ma Shiying, hoping that he can put national affairs first. King Fu is faint, not the appearance of a Ming monarch. ”

"The ...... of the Ministry"

Shi Kefa waved his hand to interrupt Mao Xiang: "Bijiang, you are a quick article, think about it for the old man, what is the reason why King Fu can't stand?" ”

Mao Xiang was very helpless, but he was just a staff member and had no decision-making power. Since Shi Shangshu said so, he could only nod, think for a moment, and say: "There are seven reasons why the Fu Fan cannot stand, one is greedy, two is prostitution, three is alcoholism, four is unfilial, five is abuse, six is not studying, and seven is interfering. ”

In fact, these seven crimes are not crimes at all.

First of all, you can't talk about greedy words. The prince of the Ming Dynasty could not participate in court politics and could not do business. It was raised as a pig by the imperial court. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the country's finances went bankrupt, and many vassal kings had not paid their money for several years. Without money to support themselves, the vassal kings had to find their own ways, such as making the people dependent on them to avoid taxes, such as annexing land and harassing the localities

。

King Fu did this when he was in Henan before, didn't King Lu do it, King Gui and they probably have such bad deeds, and they are about to punish the crime, and they can't run away from the surname Zhu all day.

However, this greedy word is true.

The second is lewdness, how to say this, as a prince, who does not have three wives and four concubines, it is understandable that normal men like this kind of thing, it is far-fetched to really talk about this.

Thirdly, alcoholism, drinking and getting drunk is a bird thing.

The crime of unfilial piety, Mao Xiang means that the old Fu King has been boiled by thieves, and you still drink and play with women, instead of crying darkly, that is a big unfilial piety.

Abuse, not to mention a prince disciplining his subordinates, even if it is an ordinary gentry, beating a wrong subordinate is not a matter.

If you don't study, a prince can't take the imperial examination, what's the use of studying, do you want to study the strategy of governing the country? What is the intention?

The crime of "interfering in the division" is nothing, and there is no strict boundary between what is intervention and what is not intervening. A vassal king must have to deal with the magistrate in the fiefdom, and when he encounters something, his temper comes, and he will inevitably play with the prestige of the royal family.

Therefore, the seven deadly sins set by Mao Xiang for King Fu are really a bit of a sin to be added.

Hearing the seven deadly sins set by Mao Xiang for King Fu, Shi Kefa felt disappreciative at first.

But when I think about it carefully, I think it's wonderful.

The wonder is that these seven major sins are common to the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, and it can be said that no prince can avoid committing them. If you really want to be more serious, you will definitely be able to find out if you check it, so you are not afraid of others saying that you are framed. Even if Lu Jiude and Liu Kongzhao want to say good things for King Fu, they can't refute it, after all, this is all a fact.

The seven deadly sins proposed by Mao Xiang are like two armies facing each other, first drawing a circle, so that the opponent can fight in the right way at the right time on the battlefield he has chosen, and it is difficult to win without winning.

The wonderful thing is that these seven major crimes are not big, and they will not arouse the disgust of Zhu Ming's royal family, but they can be used to damage a person's reputation. At that time, even if there are other people who want to speak for King Fu, they will inevitably be stigmatized as "lustful, alcoholic, unfilial, and greedy" on their heads.

"Well, it's a good thing to say

！ Shi Kefa applauded, immediately picked up the pen, and an ink-drenched letter was swept away.

He said with a happy face: "Fu Fan is not as good as a human king, if Ma Yaocao reads the old man's letter, he will definitely understand my painstaking work, and immediately send it to Ma Shi." Wait......"

Shi Kefa pondered for a moment, and then said with a smile: "You can copy a few more copies of this letter and send it to Gao Shangshu and Qian Muzhai." ”

Although he was very dissatisfied with Shi Kefa's letter to Ma Shiying, these seven deadly sins were thought up by himself, if Shi Shangshu made this letter public, it was for himself to make a name, and Mao Xiang would naturally not be talking nonsense.

Soon, through the mouth of the Donglin Party, the reason why Fu Wang Qi could not stand spread in Nanjing City in only two days.

At the same time, there is also the name of Mao Bijiang.

Now, Shenzhou is sinking, the country is ruined, and only the six departments of Nanjing are holding on to the defects. Scholars and officials from all over the country fled to Liudu, either to escape the war or to see if they could find a position when the imperial court was rebuilt. The city is full of scholars and officials' red robes. These people are naturally very enthusiastic about state affairs, and in this way, the reputation of taking the liberty of Xinjiang instantly becomes louder.

In the past, the names of the four sons of the Fushe Society were only limited to the south, but now they are truly all over the world.

No matter where Mao Xiang went, all he heard in his ears was compliments, which made him extremely proud.

Shi Kefa's letter was sent, but there was no reply from Ma Shiying. Ma Yaocao didn't know Shi Shangshu at all, and on the second day after receiving the letter, he left Nanjing and went to the Pukou Water Army Camp, saying that he wanted to inspect the defense of the river.

It is clear that Shi Kefa's belief is disdainful, and even disdainful, all of which is expected by Mao Xiang.

But Shi Kefa was in a good mood, and smiled at Mao Xiang: "Bijiang, what, the old man guessed right, Ma Yaocao is swaying, in fact, he and Lu Jiude and Liu Kongzhao may not be of the same mind." No matter who it is, Ma Yaocao is indispensable. It is estimated that he couldn't withstand the pressure of Lu and Liu, so Ma Shilang simply left Beijing to leave this place of right and wrong. In this way, it was the opportunity for me to wait, and the old man decided to go to Pukou and negotiate with him. The old man has seven grasps of this matter. During the period when the old man left the capital, you were in the middle of the contact. ”

Seeing Shi Kefa's face with relief, Mao Xiang was speechless for a while: Where is this, Shi Butang is really a scholar's opinion! is willing to go so far that people don't know what to say

。

***********************************************************

At this moment, in Pukou, Nanjing, on the edge of Pearl Spring.

Both Ma Shiying and Fu Shan were lazily reclining on the stones by the spring, stretching their feet into the cool water.

It's already summer, the weather is hot day by day, walking for a day, to such a shady place, and there is this spring and good water, Fu Shan rarely gathered his eyes, dug his nostrils and groaned: "It's so refreshing, Governor Ma really found a good place." The water of the waves! ”

is different from Fu Shan's evil appearance, although Ma Shiying is also promiscuous, he looks personable. No way, people are famous beautiful men, this is a world that looks at faces, if you are not handsome, it is impossible to be a jinshi.

has been in a high position for so many years, and he naturally has a momentum on him. As for Fu Shan, sometimes it seems a little obscene.

Hearing Fu Shan's Russian chant, Ma Shiying raised his hand, took the wine handed over by his entourage, drank it all in one gulp, threw it into the water, and let out a long roar: "The water of the waves is clear, you can wet me." The water of the waves is turbid, and it can wet my feet. ”

Fu Shan turned his head and said with a smile: "Governor Ma, Qu Zi Youyun: 'An can be white with Haohao, and covered with the dust of the world? But Canglang Song said: "The water of Canglang is turbid, you can wet my feet", one is Sanlu Doctor, the other is Confucius Sage, and I don't know who is right, Governor Ma, what do you think? ”

Ma Shiying said with a smile: "My generation of scholars, naturally based on the will of the sage. ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Ma Shiying's entourage looked awe-inspiring, but even the light in Fu Shan's eyes was so bright that it was terrifying.

are all readers, how can they not understand the meaning of Ma Shiying's words.

When a reader speaks, he generally does not go straight, but will go around a few times in a few circles and use a few allusions. If you don't understand, there is no point in communicating with you, and you are not at the same level at all!

On the surface, Fu Shan asked Ma Shiying whether what Confucius said was right or Qu Yuan's was right. In fact, he was asking Ma Shiying's attitude towards the court's support of the new monarch: Do you want to throw your sleeves away, or do you want to learn from the sage of Confucius and go in and participate in it.
