The gentry saw that Wu Chengxing was unwilling to participate in this matter, so they had to leave and leave, but half of the gentry did not give up, and they went to another compound together, the family's surname is Qian, and their family's background is also terrible, and the cabinet Qian Xiangkun is from this family.

The Qian family was not originally from Yangzhou, but a person who would be an auditor, because their family was engaged in the silk business, and often did the maritime trade business, so they moved to Yangzhou, the most prosperous city.

A big businessman who can go to sea trade must have an official background, and at the same time be related to those pirates, otherwise he doesn't know how to die, the head of the Qian family, Qian Xiangsheng is Qian Xiangkun's own brother.

Qian Xiangkun word Hongzai, number Linwu, Huiji (now Shaoxing) people. In the twenty-ninth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1601), Jinshi. Change the Jishi, give the review, enter the virtue, and turn the concubine. The party disaster in the imperial court was beginning to rise, and Xiangkun stood indifferently and had no attachment. To care for the elderly, half of the ten years of strong home. Taichang changed the yuan, the official Shao Zhan talked about things directly, and after the straight talk, he saw that the Zhongguan Wang An and the ruling affairs tended to come out. Ann makes people prolong, and they can't enter. When the line of flail law, it is very miserable, like Kun Baishang, and the emperor is relieved. The right attendant of the Ministry of Rites and the guest of the prince. In the sixth year of the Apocalypse (1626), the court pushed the Nanjing Ministry of Rites Shangshu, because he did not attach Wei Zhongxian, he was accused of being the party of Miao Chang, and he was idle from his post.

In the first year of Chongzhen, he summoned the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and the assistant Zhan Shifu. In November of the second year of Chongzhen (1629), the beacon fire broke out, the capital was under martial law, the soldiers were diligent and persistent, the weather was cold and unremitting, the emperor was very happy to know the micro-line, Chongzhen entered the cabinet in December of the second year, Wen Tiren was the first assistant of the cabinet, and Xiangkun was his protégé, so that he lived under it. Accumulate less protection and enter the Wuying Palace. Xiang Kun is in the Hanlin Academy, and Qian Longxi, Qian Qianyi, and Qian Shisheng are expected to have the goal of "four money".

Not to mention Qian Xiangkun's character and ability. As a protégé of the first shop, he is definitely reused by Wen Tiren, and in the cabinet, Qian Xiangkun also has a lot of power. This is the official background of the Qian family.

Because Qian Xiangsheng often goes through sea trade, he has a very good relationship with some pirates along the coast, except for Zheng Zhilong, Liu Xiang is the biggest. Now Liu Xiang and Zheng Zilong are grabbing the trade routes along the coast of China, Zheng Zilong is in Fujian, and Liu Xiang is in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and it is not clear that the two are the final winners.

Some of the interesting gentry immediately returned home after coming out of the Wu family, and half of the gentry who did not give up immediately came to the Qian Mansion together, because the Qian family was not a local, and they were always isolated by the local gentry in Yangzhou before. Now they are sent to the door, and Qian Xiangsheng plans to seize this opportunity to establish the leadership of the Qian family in Yangzhou.

Therefore, Qian Xiangsheng agreed to the request of these gentry, and joined forces with them to make a move to Yang Tingjian, according to Qian Xiangkun's meaning, a little Yangzhou prefect, he has countless ways to kill him. It doesn't matter if it's official or underworld.

Qian Xiangkun asked these gentry to donate 500,000 taels of silver, and then Qian Xiangsheng asked his son to immediately set off for Beijing with 200,000 taels of silver. With Qian Xiangkun's cabinet, coupled with this silver, Qian Xiangsheng is full of confidence in overthrowing Yang Tingjian.

But what kind of person is Qian Xiangsheng, there is someone who has colluded with pirates, and he also made a two-handed plan, and sent his own cronies to the housekeeper. He went to see Liu Xiang with 100,000 taels of silver and asked him to find a way to create some big trouble for Yang Tingjian, such as capturing one or two county towns in Yangzhou Prefecture.

And Yang Tingjian has a certain awareness of the calculations of these parties, for example, Jingshi's message has been spread, and the most vivid thing is that Yang Tingjian has embezzled more than 20 million silver.

In fact, everyone knows that this is what Yang Tingjian must have done. It's just that everyone pretends not to know, including Chongzhen, the Yang family is not rich enough to raise tens of thousands of troops, where did the silver come from, it must have been robbed by Yang Tingjian, but will Yang Tingjian admit it? Whoever admits it is a fool.

How did Yang Tingjian deal with these rumors, which directly caused the people in the Intelligence Department to spread more alarmist rumors, such as Yang Tingjian has established himself as king in Yangzhou, Yang Tingjian has taken the tiger army to the capital, Yang Tingjian has rebelled, and so on.

As soon as these rumors came out, they became even more vigorous, Yang Tingjian's embezzlement of money was not cared about, and Chongzhen was also so anxious that he had no choice, so he asked the factory guards to go out to arrest the people who spread the rumors, but this had no effect.

Huang Taiji's gossip was easily broken by Yang Tingjian, but everything is two-sided, although Chongzhen trusts Yang Tingjian, he has already taken an extra layer of defense against Yang Tingjian in his heart, and as a last resort, Chongzhen will not serve in Zhao Yang Tingjian's entry into Beijing. The Ming Dynasty has come to this point, when the imperial court is extremely weak, the imperial power has been greatly weakened, and Chongzhen really has no soldiers to fight except for Yang Tingjian's tiger army. Chongzhen's ambivalent feelings of jealousy and pampering Yang Tingjian are intertwined.

The rumors have not subsided, and the impeachment chapter against Yang Tingjian flew into the Forbidden City like snowflakes.

Many officials have completely forgotten Yang Tingjian's merits, and described Yang Tingjian as a living feudal town, a living Cao thief, Yang Tingjian poked his nose at these, the tiger army is in hand, I have it in the world, Yang Tingjian is no longer afraid of these so-called impeachments on paper.

Yang Tingjian also received the news, and immediately wrote a domineering poem "Yong Frog"

Sitting alone in the pond is like a tiger, and the spirit is nourished under the green poplar tree.

If I don't speak first in the spring, which insect dares to make a sound?

As soon as this poem came out, the world was in an uproar, not to mention the domineering of this poem, but to say that it is related to the current gossip and impeachment, which is too appropriate, Yang Tingjian directly regarded these impeached officials as insects, he is a frog that eats insects, spring is coming, he is a frog who does not speak, do you dare to come out and scratch the noise?

There are many high-ranking officials in the world who impeached Yang Tingjian, all of whom were so angry that they vomited blood by this poem, and they also tried to write a few poems to ridicule Yang Tingjian, but the artistic conception is simply incomparable, it is completely the result of the firefly and the sun and the moon, and the result is that they are not self-sufficient, and comparing poems with Yang Tingjian is purely the end of looking for abuse.

The matter of impeaching Yang Tingjian immediately turned around and began to become a poetry argument, too many people couldn't stand Yang Tingjian's sarcasm and sarcasm that compared them to insects, and began to rack their brains to write poems to argue with Yang Tingjian, but none of them were as domineering as Yang Tingjian's poems.

It is said that Liu Xiang, also known as Liu Xianglao, a native of Lamma Island, Hong Kong, Guangdong Province, is one of the members of Zheng Zhilong's "Eighteen Zhi" armed maritime business group, because he refused to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, he broke with Zheng Zhilong, the former brother of the deed, in 1629 (the second year of Ming Chongzhen), and Zheng Zhilong's representative of the Ming Dynasty and the Netherlands comprador representatives, Liu Xiangshi was the comprador representative of Francois (Spain, Portugal). This is also the main reason why Zheng Zhilong and Liu Xiang became mortal enemies, and the two sides represented the interests of different powers in the Far East.
