Liu Xu was alarmed in his heart, and finally got to the point, he deliberately made a look of surprise: "The younger brother was about to find the three brothers to discuss, but the three brothers were one step ahead of me, it was the fault of the younger brother." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Boyang doesn't have to be polite, when I came, I heard that Boyang was unwell these days, and he only practiced calligraphy in the room every day, and the three of us were still a little worried, but now I saw that I was in good spirits and full of energy, but I was worried in vain." Xu Fuyuan looked at Liu Xu's mental state and spoke.

"It's just that the younger brother has something unclear, the elder brother's literary name is heavier than Jiangnan, but he is just a paper in the field, and he has not been promoted for the time being, I don't know what is the important thing to go to Beijing this time?" It is a privilege for people to participate in the examination, and although Xu Fuyuan has a prominent family background, he is still not qualified to participate.

"There are elders in the family in Beijing, and the letter tells me that when the Beijing teachers are full of humanities, and when they are also in the field of science, they might as well go to see one or two, and in the future, they will be on the official side and benefit the people, and they still have to rely on the support of their colleagues."

"This is not bad, but my Songjiang Shizi usually has to be presided over by Brother Xu, and Brother Xu will go for half a year or a year, and I will inevitably be lonely in several social meetings." Su He interjected with a smile.

Su He said that the several societies are similar to the later famous Fu Society, "there are six or seven gentlemen in the clouds, the heart of the ancients, learn the learning of the ancients, gather the same interests, three chapters of the law, the month has a society, the society has a class, imitate the collection of Liang Yuan Yexia, according to the rules of the Lanting Golden Valley" Generally speaking, a few literati gather together to study the articles of the ancients, chant the wind and make the moon, vassal elegance, and sometimes the interest may go to the Qinhuai River to see and see the beauty of the romance.

Several people present are members of several societies, and they are all familiar with the tune on this Fengyue field, as for people like Su He, they have had the absurd experience of treating Goolan Courtyard as their own home, but Liu Xu's wife was strict in the past, and she was only allowed to chant poems, not to rely on red and green, only to allow a subset of scriptures and history, and not to sleep under flowers, so it was a hard time.

Liu Xu secretly thought that the warm-up was almost over, the appetizer had been served, and the main course of the main meal was next. He then took off his square turban and threw it in his hand, and his long black hair spread out in the air like a waterfall. Immediately, Liu Xu laughed wildly three times, cried three more times, and fell to the ground. He cried sincerely, like a young beast that had lost its mother, and like a pure minister who witnessed the fall of his family and country, he was using his cry to vent his inner hesitation and infinite sadness. Liu Xu cried so sadly that his fist slammed on the floor, making a sound like thunder.

"Boyang, Boyang, what does this mean?" Xu Fuyuan was taken aback, although there are many Jiangnan scholars who are ecstatic and Zen, and there are not a few people who behave freely, but it is still rare to suddenly go crazy while talking well.

The three of them helped Liu Xu up, and the eyeless servant picked up the square scarf and said in a loud voice: "Master, what's going on with a good talk?" ”

Liu Xu pushed the servant away, took a few steps in Listening to Yuxuan, and said loudly: "My behavior is strange? ”

"Big is weird." Wang Zhen replied.

"I laugh because I know that I still have three brothers in the Ming Dynasty who are so talented and beautiful, the so-called 'national disaster thinks of good generals, and Bandang knows pure ministers', although the military affairs in the north are unfavorable, and finally there is no need to worry about crossing to the south, but I cry-" Liu Xu's tone turned stern: "It is that the three brothers are still obsessed with the imperial examination as officials at this moment, but they don't know that my Ming Dynasty is already in danger, and the people of Wanzhao are deeply trapped in fire and water, and the vast society has long been endless!" ”

"What does Boyang mean by this, does he mean that we are in trouble for the country and the people?" Although the three of them were praised in the front, the accusations in the back were too severe, and Su He, who had always had a good temper, was inevitably angry, and he had already sat back in his seat, but at this moment, he got up like a spring under his buttocks, and asked loudly.

"This, Boyang is also well-intentioned, we all want to sweep away the traitors, but only after gaining fame can we be officials, and only then can we have the opportunity to eliminate harm for the people and eradicate the traitors!" Xu Fu came over to play the round, patted Su He's shoulder to calm him down, and secretly gave Liu Xu a look.

"Now the power is eunuched, first deceived the emperor in the palace, resulting in the decadence of the government, the death of the people, and the disaster of the party after the revival of the party, one by one Ye Gong Xiang is higher than the cabinet, the second cane Lin Gong Ru is in the court, the three make the "Point General Record" to slaughter Zhongliang, and the four harms Yang, Zuo, Wei, Zhou, Yuan, Gu Liugong in the edict, all kinds of behaviors are outrageous, not different from the rate of beasts and cannibalism, my generation should take advantage of the succession of the Holy Son of Heaven to destroy it, how can I be intoxicated with the fame of the imperial examination? I'm crying because my brothers don't want to avenge you Jiangnan sages! After Liu Xu finished speaking, he twisted his inner thigh again, a few tears in pain, and beat the carved tea table of pineapple wood with his hand: "The Son of Heaven is above, my generation is incapable of expelling the eunuchs, what face do you have to live in the world!" ”

"I see, Boyang is worried about national affairs, we think badly." Xu Fuyuan turned his anger into joy at this time, "Back then, Wei Zhongxian sent a horse to Suzhou to arrest Zhou Gong Shunchang, and my Jiangnan Shimin decided to stand against it, but the power eunuch was powerful at that time, so he had to temporarily avoid his front, and now the Holy Son of Heaven has succeeded to the throne, and it is the right eunuch who should be defeated!" ”

From a political standpoint, Nanzhili is the inherent sphere of influence of the Donglin Party, and many Donglin officials are actually the spokesmen of the local forces of Nanzhili in the court. Personally, the eunuchs who represent the emperor's rights are themselves at odds with the scholars, after all, the cake of power is so big, and the more eunuchs have a piece, the less the scholars have a piece; In terms of historical memory, the lackeys sent by Wei Zhongxian did not do much good in Jiangnan, and when they arrested the Donglin Party, they did some angry things in Jiangnan, extortion, and destroying families were common, and the Zhou Shunchang case caused tens of thousands of people in Suzhou and rural areas to gather to complain and kill two Dongchang horsemen on the spot.

It is precisely because of this that as soon as Liu Xu was slightly agitated, the three of them immediately felt the same hatred.

"Boyang has grown so much in the past few days! What I just said is very true, my generation should work together to expel the eunuchs! Wang Zhen immediately replied: "Meng Ziyun, reflexively shrinking, although tens of millions of people are in the future, even if the power is eunuch and powerful, we have to fight him to the end!" ”

"Yes, I want to fight with the eunuch to the end!" Su He's family was in business, and he was not less extorted money by the eunuchs, but he chose to oppose Wei Zhongxian because of the hatred of the country, the hatred of the family, and the righteousness and private feelings.

Of course, even if the three of them were interested in Wei Zhongxian, they didn't dare to plead at this time, otherwise once it was spread out, they would be shameless and eunuchs, and they would not be able to mix in the Jiangnan scholar circle.

"There is virtue in the Tai, followed by meritorious service, followed by speech, although it has not been abandoned for a long time, this is immortal! What we do is to be virtuous and immortal! With the support of three brothers, even if the younger brother dies, it is worth it! Liu Xu stepped onto the tea table, he was already tall, and this time he was a head taller than the tallest Xu Fu. Liu Xu looked down at the three of them, clenched his hands into fists, and raised them high above his head: "When Wei Zhongxian killed the ministers of the court, we didn't speak out, because we didn't become officials; When Wei Zhongxian sent people to slaughter Jiangnan's fathers, we didn't speak out, because the knife didn't cut its own head; When Wei Zhongxian is going to kill our scholars, there will be no one to speak for us, because Wei Zhongxian has been killed! If Wei Gelding is not removed, the country will have no peace, and if Wei Gelding is not removed, you and I will be in danger! Except for Wei Eunuch, this court is the world of our Jiangnan scholars and our Donglin faction! Everyone shouted to me: Eunuch power, chaos in the family and country, there is him without me, there is me without him! Defeat the eunuchs and defend my right path! Defeat the eunuchs and defend my right path! ”

Liu Xu's language seems to have a different kind of magic, which can arouse the deepest fears and desires in people's hearts, and it is like the thunder of golden drums on the battlefield, which can trigger people's blood surge. For a while, the enthusiasm in the fighting room surged, everyone shouted and shouted to kill, and the faces of the three originally gentle Jiangnan scholars were full of violence, and they all shouted in the loudest voices, "Down with the eunuchs, defend my righteousness!" ”

Seeing that the fire was ripe, Liu Xu stopped crying, took the hot towel sent by the servant and wiped his face, admired the green tendons exposed on Xu Fuyuan's neck with great interest, paused for a moment, and waited for the three of them to vent the fear and desire in their hearts, and said in a calm and powerful tone: "That's it, with us leading, it is easy to sweep away the eunuchs!" When the time comes, we will be the leaders of the new generation of Shilin, and we will be the heroes of the country! It's just three brothers, the struggle is to pay attention to strategy, my generation of literati have no swords and no swords, many people study all day long, and they have no power to tie the chicken, and most of the eunuch lackeys are from Dongchang Jinyiwei, and it is their forte to raid the family and take people, and it can only be self-inflicted humiliation to confront the eunuch lackeys head-on. When the time comes, instead of annihilating the evil seeds, the seeds of Jiangnan reading will be robbed - although my generation of literati is proud and will never be afraid of death, but if we can retain a useful body to serve the holy king and destroy the eunuch party, why not? ”

"What Boyang said is that everything is inferior, only reading is high, how can you make the reading seed and the sword of the eunuch lackey fight hard?" Because of the relationship led by Liu Xu just now, Xu Fuyuan had an imperceptible dependence on Liu Xu: "In Boyang's opinion, how should we act?" ”

Liu Xu didn't get off the tea table, but just glanced at the three of them condescendingly: "It's a big matter, and if you want to succeed, you must have one person to lead it." Otherwise, there will be many political affairs at that time, and the big thing will be in danger! After a pause, Liu Xu said again: "And although this matter is a dignified way, it is extremely dangerous, and the slightest carelessness is the disaster of raiding the family and exterminating the family. ”

Wang Zhen has already seen that Liu Xu wants to take the lead in this castration activity, but he himself is a relatively idle cloud and wild crane, and he was encouraged by Liu Xu's ghost words just now before shouting to defeat the eunuch party, and now he has calmed down. Today, seeing that Liu Xu is quite organized in his speech and actions, and he is good at encouraging people's hearts, it is indispensable to give him the leadership, and more importantly, once the matter fails, the leader is always more dangerous. Yes, Wang Zhen immediately agreed: "There is no problem with this, my generation of literati only acts for the justice of the world, since Boyang is good at organization, then Boyang is the main one!" ”

Su He and Xu Fuyuan's minds changed rapidly, and they had already figured out the pros and cons of this matter, as long as the matter was successful, the four of them could immediately become famous in the world and become celebrities in Shilin, and if they failed, Liu Xu would also be in charge, so they also agreed: "Since Boyang is interested, we will let Boyang call the shots!" ”

"Good!" Liu Xu jumped off the table and commanded: "Liu An, let the kitchen make a table of banquets, at the moment of major events, we should drink spirits to strengthen the arms of martyrs, and the four of us brothers use wine as a medium, and we must get rid of this evil for the world!" ”
