Qianqing Palace, East Warm Pavilion.

The ministers had already retreated, and the eunuchs of the Qianqing Palace knelt to pinch Wanli's legs, and the eunuch Zhang Hong, the eunuch of the Inner Factory, and Sun Hai, the governor of the inner factory, knelt where the ministers knelt just now.

Wanli's expression was tired and melancholy: "In the past few years, I have opened up my inner money for you to use, for what?" ”

"Develop the East Factory as soon as possible", the inner factory supervised the East Factory, Sun Hai was the biggest spy, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Good for the master's worries." ”

"This is the worry you gave me?" Wanli grabbed the copy of "Mingyi to be Interviewed", threw it at Sun Hai and said: "If it weren't for Cheng Shouxun going south to supervise the weaving, would it be that my country was taken by them, and I would still have to be kept in the dark!" ”

"Slaves and maids should be ......" In fact, the eunuchs got silver from the inside, and eighty percent of it was squandered in their private pockets. Two capitals and fifteen provinces, except for the feet of the Son of Heaven who dare not fool, a little farther away, there is no one willing to spend. Therefore, the southeast has been vigorously rioting for several years, but Wanli has been kept in the dark. Sun Hai hurriedly kowtowed like garlic and said: "Dongchang has just been rebuilt for less than three years, the manpower is not ready, and the training cannot keep up, and the slaves and maids have left their elite forces in Beijing in order to ensure the Beijing division, and the south will inevitably be empty......

"The minister is not credible, and the servant is as stupid as a pig", Wanli said with a melancholy face: "Why am I so uneasy? ”

"The emperor is angry, the slaves and maids have investigated the heads of Nanzhi and Zhejiang, and mobilized capable people to go south", Sun Hai hurriedly expressed his determination and promised: "I will definitely let those madmen who have no king and no father know that the emperor is powerful!" ”

"It's like a human saying." Wanli's face was slightly pale, and he looked at Zhang Honglian: "Grandpa Zhang, what do you think?" ”

"When the old slave first arrived at the celebrant supervisor, Xu Ge was still the first assistant, and he once remembered that he lamented this, "The villagers are the most unreasonable." And those who listen to the official in this land, every time they call it a ghost country, the cloud "He has something in the world every day, and he will create it in this." Gai said that the decree of the imperial court could not be carried out here, and the people were cunning, they could endure what people could not bear, and they did not dare to do what people dared to do. Zhang Hong, who has never been very showy, also said with a clear attitude this time: "...... This major case of rebellion is the result of the long-term appeasement of the local officials by the villagers who have no king and the law. The old slave looks at the cabinet ministers, and it seems that he has the intention of taking it lightly. The emperor must not be succeeded by them, he must be strictly investigated and dealt with, he would rather be in vain than indulge, and he must not let the traitor damage the foundation of the society! ”

The reason why Gonggong Zhang was able to sit firmly on the throne of the celebrant without flattering the emperor was because of his eyesight at this critical time - he knew what kind of attitude he, the head of the eunuch, should have at this time!

"Well said." Wanli really said with a happy heart: "The chief manager is different from these rice buckets of them. ”

"The old slave thinks that the reason why this great rebellion can be spread to everyone is that he is naturally the initiator of writing this book, but if it was twenty or thirty years earlier, it would definitely not be able to make any big waves, and eighty percent of it would be ignored as crazy talk."

"Then why ...... now," Wanli said with some frustration.

"Because there are newspapers that spread and preach, and there are academies that preach all day long, the common people are ignorant

The so-called public mouth is gold, and those who have heard a lot will believe it. Zhang Hongyuan said slowly.

"That's right." Wanli nodded heavily and said, "Then how to do it?" ”

"First of all, those who write this book, those who publish this book, those who sell this book, in short, those who have a direct relationship with this book, all of them must be arrested immediately!" Zhang Hongyin said ruthlessly: "Use the great crime of rebellion to connect the door to set an example!" ”

"At the same time, anyone who reprints, falsely spreads, or actively comments on this book will also be punished with the same crime!" Zhang Hong said murderously: "Newspapers that have no problems must also be closed for rectification...... Your Majesty, the content published in this newspaper can be seen by the gentry and the people in a blink of an eye, and the impact is too great, so it must be controlled in the hands of the emperor. ”

"Hmm......" Wanli nodded and motioned for him to continue.

"That's all the old slave thinks about for the time being." Zhang Hong smiled embarrassedly.

"That's a good point, it's already rare, but there's one more important thing that hasn't been mentioned." Wanli pointed to the second drawer on the bookshelf and said, "Find out the secret fold that Zhang Siwei gave me before leaving." ”

The guest hurriedly went over to look for it, and sure enough, he found the secret book, and couldn't help but admire the emperor's memory.

"Start on page three."

"Yes." The guest opened the fold and said softly: "The style of private lectures has not been seen in history before Zhengde. Since Jiajing, Wang Xue has flourished, and the style of lecturing has flourished in the United States. Nowadays, scholars must be called "Lu Wang Wang Shen", if anyone still talks about Cheng Zhu, the overseas Chinese will look down on him. Under such circumstances, the officials and students were no longer interested in Cheng Zhu Lixue, and they invited the famous teacher Wang Xue to give lectures at the school. The number of official learning cattle is limited, and the people of the royal family are afraid that the knowledge will not be widely spread, and they have established academies one after another. At present, there are nearly 1,000 of these academies that have sprung up in a hurry across the country. Compared with the number of protégés, the students of the Ming Dynasty at all levels of government and school are only a drop in the ocean and insignificant. These young people no longer read the books of the sages and take the right path for the examination, but instead think about how to stand out from the crowd. The original intention of the imperial court was to cultivate talents for the management of the country. Those famous masters of psychology who moved the government and the opposition to establish the academy were thinking about instigating young scholars according to their wishes, and how to fight against the imperial court. If these people are allowed to mess around, in a few years, won't the court be an empty shelf? ”

"If it is just to learn and seek Taoism, its harm will not be immediately apparent, but there are Wang Xuetaizhou faction led by He Xinyin, Li Zan, Luo Rufang, etc., all of whom are bare-handed fighting dragons and snakes, deviant people, openly despise human ethics, criticize the government, wantonly slander the emperor and the court to attract people's attention, and everywhere they go, thousands of empty alleys, countless ignorant young people, lost deeply. Nowadays, the pulpits of academies in various places have almost become a position to attack the political situation and attack the imperial court, which not only misleads people's children, but also causes great harm to the stability of the society. ”

"The sage has a saying, "One rule, chaos is chaos; One is safe, and the other is dangerous. Nowadays, the academies around the country have become places for creating all kinds of unscrupulous people with unscrupulous eyes. Why have academies sprung up like mushrooms? To put it bluntly, it is to have the support of the political leaders. The style of lecturing was also flourishing in officialdom, and some officials were dissatisfied with the emperor and the imperial court, and they did not dare to stand up against it

With the help of the flow of mental learning, catharsis. There are also the township officials in the opposition, as well as those wealthy merchants and gentry, these people need to maintain or improve their social status, so they either generously donate money, or run to contact organizations, called lectures, but in fact, the township party, even the local officials can not compete with them. Lecturing and lecturing, the drunkard's intention is not to drink, and in the long run, a group that opposes the emperor and the imperial court will be formed, and the world will be in great trouble. ”

"Therefore, Weichen asked to seal up the private academies in the world, and designated the Qinzhou School as a cult, and used thunderous means to sweep away the charm and charm of the school, and clean up the source...... It's also bright and clear......"

"That's it." Wanli had already considered it mature and didn't let the guest read it anymore, he said to Zhang Hong: "Grandpa Zhang...... This is a good fortune two years ago, and I broke out in a cold sweat after reading it, but it was troublesome at the time, so I delayed it again and again, and I haven't dealt with it to this day. Finally, there is today's self-inflicted consequences. ”

"As the saying goes, it's never too late to make amends." Zhang Hong said softly.

As the saying goes...... The scholars rebelled, and it didn't work out for ten years. "It's so easy for Sun Hai to show off...... Rolled up his sleeves and said, "Your Majesty, this matter will be handed over to the slave maid...... Make sure to change all those academies into pig circles! ”

"Such a big deal...... You have to listen to Grandpa Zhang. Wanli has great trust in this playmate since childhood, and just said to Zhang Hong with a word of advice: "Zhang Siwei said that the harm of lectures in the academy is prosperous in Nanzhi, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Huguang, and the manpower of the East Factory is not enough, and the inner factory cannot be moved, you see?" ”

The rice maid knows. Zhang Hong said: "The eight thousand lieutenant officials who are in the internal exercise can be transferred at any time. "Since Shen Mo is gone, Emperor Wanli has recruited lieutenant officials year after year, and they all have to be strong and strong, and they are stubborn and fierce. How can there be so many people in the palace to serve, most of them are allocated to the imperial horse supervisor to train the internal guards.

In the heart of Emperor Wanli, the ministers are not credible, although the nobles are better, they are not reliable, and their own safety still depends on the eunuchs. It is not enough for eunuchs to lead the troops, but also to form a pure eunuch army to guard by their side. This big case of demon books in the south really frightened Wanli, and he had to mobilize his trump card to feel at ease: "Very good, it's enough to leave five cadres to guard the palace, and transfer 3,000 to Dongchang...... Then you draw up the will, and then transfer the military mule to the left guard to listen to it. ”

"Yes." Zhang Hong responded, it seems that the emperor really killed this time.

111111111111111111111......11111111111111111111111111111111111111 One by one, one by one...... One-on-one, one-on-one-one...... 11......111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 One one

After Zhang Hong and Sun Hai retreated, Wanli yawned again and again, and the guest hurriedly lit a cigarette for him.

Wanli took a deep breath and said with an iron: "I'm really depressed today, it's not a good thing." ”

"It's still a good thing." The guest smiled and said, "Your Majesty, your fetal brush is finally ready." ”

"Bring it!" Wanli suddenly came to his senses, pinched the cigarette in his hand, and his eyes glowed red.

The guest presented a rosewood box, Wanli took the box and opened it, pinched the black and shiny "pen" with his hand, and thought that they were all produced in the girl, and his body became hot, and murmured: "Three years, more than 3,000 women, it took to find such a handful of ......" and laughed and said: "Good job, I have a lot of rewards!" ”

The rice maid is satisfied with a lip service. The guest said softly: "Repair auspicious soil, repair the side wall, this is like flowing water, and now the East Factory is going to use the line again, or save it for the master." ”

"It's really intimate with me," Wanli sniffed the tip of his pen to his nose, "But you don't have to worry, I'm rich all over the world, and I can't starve my minions." As he spoke, he put the pen away and said, "If I don't give you gold and silver wealth, how about I give you a fat difference?" ”

"It depends on whether the slave can afford it."

"Cheng Shouxun's secret music is very reasonable, it is too troublesome to rely on weaving to get thread, and it has to be transported from the south to the capital, and I am worried about unsalable. Not a good idea. Wanli was reluctant to use this dipping ink, so he hung his arm and wrote two words out of thin air: "The money is fast, one is to open a mine, and the other is to collect taxes." I cleaned up the academy this time, and it also meant killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys. After Liwei, it's time to do these two things, which one do you want to choose? ”

1111111...... One by one, one by one...... One-on-one, one-on-one-one...... One by one, one by one...... 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

As one after another edicts were issued, the factory guards and the forbidden army began to move. Before the large army went south, there were naturally countless Dongchang secret agents to attack the front station and lock the target for the thunderous blow.

And in the silent teahouse, Chen Guanren and Ma Liuye were just affected by the fire at the city gate, who made the secret agents of Dongchang so dedicated, and they just arrived in Shanghai and arrested people everywhere for blackmail?

Shanghai, Tiebi Lane, Dongchang Detective Office.

The dark and dreary door slowly opened, and Ma Yuan, Chen Guanren, and Ma Liuye came out in a row, although there were no injuries on their bodies, but

I was frightened and tossed for a night, but I still looked like a frosted eggplant.

Seeing them come out, the teahouse guy who was waiting at the door hurriedly greeted them, and Shen Mo and Tie Shan drove over in two carriages.

When several people saw Shen Mo, they all had tears in their eyes, and they clasped their fists and said: "Boss Qin, you are too benevolent and righteous, you don't think we are making trouble for you, and you spend so many lines to protect us, we really don't know how to treat us like six."

"Don't say anything, get in the car first." Shen Mo threw the whip to Ma Yuan and lifted the curtain.

On the carriage, Chen Guanren lost his usual arrogance, and after thanking him again, he sighed again and again: "No disaster in vain,......"

Shen Mo took out a cigarette to suppress his shock, Ma Liuye and Zhou Laohan also smoked dry cigarettes, and the small carriage was soon full of smoke.

"I still haven't figured it out, why are there people from Dongchang in the teahouse?" Ma Liuye was no longer majestic, and said dejectedly: "I'm really sorry Boss Qin, let you stop trading and ruin your fortune." How much did it cost, and I'll let the Hun family send it to you when I go back. Several people nodded yes.

"It can only be said that it is inverted fog." Shen Mo sighed and said: "I just inquired, last night was the first mission of the secret agents of the East Factory, and they arrived at our store...... There is no need to blame themselves, the original chat between the people in Shanghai City can be said to be taboo, as long as it is more serious, there is nothing that cannot be caught. ”

"Well, you'll have to be careful when you talk in the future." Shopkeeper Hou shrunk his neck and said, "I blame the stubble I mentioned first, and I came out alone." ”

You use you," Shen Mo shook his head and said: "There is no objection to the money, you should save some flowers in the future and buy more food to save." ”

"What's wrong?" The eyes of the crowd widened, as if they were frightened.

Shen Mo lifted the curtain a little, glanced at the calm and usual street market outside, and said softly: "This world is going to be chaotic...... person

………… One...... "split...... "......" one
