Chapter Seventy-Three: The Scribe (II)

Zheng Chenggong walked into the cabin, and Qian Qianyi was busy introducing the people present to Zheng Chenggong.

It was Gu Yanwu of Suzhou who invited Zheng Chenggong, and it was Fang Yizhi of Tongcheng who argued loudly with Qian Qianyi, and there were Yuyao Huang Zongxi, Huang Zongyan, Yangzhou Mao Xiang and his wife Dong Xiaowan, Xiuning Hu Zhengyan, Ningbo Gao Doukui, Wucheng Chen Chen, Kunshan Guizhuang, Suzhou Xu Fang, and Li Xiangjun.

Zheng Chenggong bowed to them one by one, Huang Zongxi and others also returned the salute, only Fang Yizhi casually bowed.

As soon as he sat down, Fang Yizhi sneered and said: "Everyone in the world says that the general is loyal and righteous, and now it seems that it is nothing more than that. Zheng Mingyan, do you want to learn from Cao A? β€œ

Now that his strength is getting stronger and stronger, Zheng Chenggong does not plan to continue to package his image as a loyal minister.

But not continuing to pack, and admitting that you are a traitor, are two different things.

Zheng Chenggong sat on the chair with a slight smile and said chatteringly: "Justice is in the hearts of the people, I am loyal or traitorous, and I have history to evaluate!" Who are you to interrogate General Ben! ”

"You ......" Fang Yizhi put his hand behind his back, twisted his face, and no longer looked at Zheng Chenggong.

Fang Yizhi didn't speak, but Zheng Chenggong refused to let him go, and the people sitting on the boat now were all prestigious people.

If they go back and publicize it casually, it will be easy for them to cause trouble in the clerical circle.

Zheng Chenggong doesn't ask them all to support him, but he must not drag himself back, otherwise don't blame him for being ruthless.

In troubled times, it is very easy to make you disappear alone!

Zheng Chenggong said contemptuously: "The people who talk about the Qingliu can't protect the family and defend the country, and the people can't be relieved. What shame to judge others! ”

Fang Yizhi was a little trembling and said: "Huangkou Ruzi, how dare you Nell!" We care about the common people in the world, for the sake of the Qiankun Society, life and death are all out of the way, how can you slander! ”

Zheng Chenggong smiled disdainfully: "Caring for the people of the world, for the Qiankun Society?" What a heart for the world, for the Qiankun Society! Dare to ask what merits do you have for the world and the community? ”

Fang Yizhi was speechless when asked.

Fang Yizhi was thirty years old in the Jinshi, elected as a Shu Jishi, someone recommended Fang Yizhi to Emperor Chongzhen, Chongzhen called the Dezheng Palace, Fang Yizhi "the language is confidential, and the upper stroke is good". Later, he served as the official of the Ministry of Industry, the review of the Hanlin Academy, and the speaker of the prince and the king of Yong.

In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen (1644), Li Zicheng's peasant army invaded Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself, Fang Yizhi cried bitterly in front of Chongzhen's spirit, and was captured by the peasant army, and the peasant army tortured him, "seeing the two condyles".

Soon, Li Zicheng's army was defeated at Shanhaiguan, and Fang Yizhi took advantage of the chaos to flee south, and rushed to Nanjing to defect to the Hongguang regime of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

At that time, the enemy Ruan Dacheng controlled the government of the Hongguang dynasty in the Southern Ming Dynasty, and Fang Yizhi was squeezed out, and he lived in Lingnan and Liangguang to sell medicines for a living.

After the fall of the Hongguang regime, Fang Yizhi participated in the activities to support the Yongli regime in 1647.

During the Yongli period, he was falsely impeached and removed from office by the eunuch Wang Kun and went into exile in Guangxi.

When the Qing army conquered Guangzhou, Fang Yizhi became a monk in Wuzhou, and his legal name was Hongzhi.

Fang Yizhi is loyal and patriotic, which Zheng Chenggong does not deny.

But Fang Yizhi's political and military talent is so-so, otherwise he would not have taken refuge in anyone, who would be unlucky!

Seeing that Fang Yizhi didn't dare to answer, Zheng Chenggong said proudly: "When I was defeated, I raised an army against the Qing Dynasty in danger. I have been lamenting all night, but I am afraid that it will not work. For Qiankun Sheji, he personally led the troops to fight, and only after a hundred battles was he able to recover Fujian! Now the armor is sufficient, the Central Plains in the north, the dull and blunt, the traitors are eliminated, the Ming room is restored, and the old capital is returned. All of you are an example! What merit do you have in terms of wisdom, and dare to say that you care about the people of the world and serve the Qiankun Society?"

At the end, Zheng Chenggong stood up and glared at Fang Yizhi.

After many years of battlefield career, Zheng Chenggong has developed a murderous spirit. was originally a majestic appearance, but now this sinking face is even more murderous and terrifying.

Being drunk by Zheng Chenggong, Fang Yizhi was so frightened that he couldn't help but retreat back and fell to the ground.

Qian Qianyi was secretly happy when he saw Fang Yizhi's ugly appearance, but he still drank to Zheng Chenggong: "Mingyan, don't be rude to Mr. Luqi!" ”

Zheng Chenggong hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Don't dare, the disciple just wants to defend himself!" ”

Fang Yizhi is a scholar, that is, he publishes articles, shouts slogans, and then runs in all directions to persuade others to revolt against the Qing Dynasty.

But Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi are different, they personally led the uprising against the Qing Dynasty.

The bookish spirit of those years, after several years of tempering and failure, has become pragmatic.

Gu Yanwu arched his hand and said: "The mouth is like a hanging river, the tongue is like a sharp blade, it is useless in the world!" The big husband should be like the ear of the general, holding the Wu hook to collect the fifty states of Guanshan, talking and laughing about the marquis! General Xie advised, Zhongqing understood, and implored the general to hire and contribute to the world's society! ”

Zheng Chenggong was overjoyed, and hurriedly helped Gu Yanwu up and said, "Hurry up, please get up." It is a blessing for this general to have Mr. assisted! ”

Then, Zheng Chenggong followed the steps given by Gu Yanwu, and the other party said with wisdom: "Mr. Luqi is not strange! General Ben was a joke just now, please forgive me! ”

Fang Yizhi was very annoyed that Zheng Chenggong had lost his face, but today's banquet was initiated by Qian Qianyi, even if he didn't give him face, he would give Gu Yanwu and Mao Bijiang a few faces.

Fang Yizhi casually arched his hand and said, "Don't dare!" ”

After settling these people, Zheng Chenggong didn't pay attention to Fang Yizhi anymore, and talked with Gu Yanwu and Wang Fuzhi in the banquet.

Gu Yanwu and Fang Yizhi all expressed their opinions freely, putting forward their respective views and suggestions on current politics and the current situation.

Zheng Chenggong thought it was a little interesting at first, but the more he listened, the more he felt that these people were simply scholars.

Gu Yanwu and they are better, although they are a bit out of reality, but they are not outrageous in the end.

Fang Yizhi was, and at the banquet, he even raised it in high spirits after drinking too much wine.

Emperor Yongli sat in Nanjing and ordered the princes of the world to be kings. Then the army was divided into three routes, the Zheng army attacked Jianghuai all the way, the Great Western Army attacked Guanzhong all the way, and Li Chengdong attacked Jinyu all the way. Three-way march, the people eat pot pulp to welcome the king?

Then, of course, it is the Ming Zhongxing, and he is reincarnated with Zhi Zhuge and the Ming Dynasty is Zhang Liang.

Fang Yizhi's strategy is very good and powerful.

Several people present were a little enthusiastic when they heard it, and Fang Yizhi really did not lose the name of a talent.

When Zheng Chenggong heard it, he wanted to squirt him with a mouthful of water, what did he think, who did he think Yongli was? As soon as Yongli gives the order, the other princes will obey the order?

Now Yongli's edict is a piece of toilet paper, if it is useful, take it out and use it, and throw it away when you run out!

Nanjing, hehe, Yongli dares to come, Lao Tzu dares to be Cao Cao's second.

Looking at the way they pointed out who the country was, Zheng Chenggong felt very bored.

Zheng Chenggong values their prestige and the editorial-oriented ability that their group of scholars has mastered.

They are willing to take refuge in themselves, and Zheng Chenggong will take them in anyway.

It's just that how to place them is a problem!

These guys are underwhelmed, and it's no problem to do sabotage.

I just don't know if these guys are willing to be spies?

Zheng Chenggong thought maliciously.

They must not be allowed to interfere in political affairs, think about it, such a guy usually directs the country and fights with words. He has cultivated first-class eloquence and outstanding writing.

It is a good choice to go to the newly established magazines and newspapers to be responsible for writing editorials, criticizing current affairs, and maintaining the guidance of public opinion.

In order to make them less troublesome for themselves, Zheng Chenggong talked a lot about the role of newspapers, emphasizing that newspapers and magazines are extremely helpful to mankind, to the emancipation of the minds of the people, to the dissemination of knowledge, and to the control of the mouthpiece of the academic community.

Afraid of being scared for a while, Wang Fuzhi agreed to go to the newly established "Times", and Fang Yizhi went to "Reader's Weekly" as the editor-in-chief.

Lu Liuliang, Hu Zhengyan, and Huang Yuji were all famous bibliophiles, and Zheng Chenggong asked them to manage the library, compile the management system, collect ancient books, and rescue the "Yongle Canon"

"Yongle Dadian" was compiled in the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, and the cabinet chief assistant Xie Jin edited a Chinese classical collection of masterpieces, originally known as "Literature Dacheng", is a Chinese encyclopedic literature collection, with a total of 22,937 volumes, 11,095 volumes, about 370 million words, bringing together seven or eight thousand kinds of ancient and modern books, showing the glorious achievements of ancient Chinese science and culture.

But it's a pity that this masterpiece has experienced many difficulties and lost since it came out.

In order to make this masterpiece reappear, Zheng Chenggong funded Lu Liuliang, Hu Zhengyan, and Huang Yuji to find ways to collect it.

Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi were both erudite people, and Huang Zongxi was a scholar, historian, thinker, geographer, astronomical almanacist, and educator. Gu Yanwu was a thinker, economist, historian and phonologist.

When the two heard that they could serve as the newly established Nanjing University of Political Science and Law and Zhejiang University of Political Science and Law, they both accepted it with gusto.

Needless to say, Qian Qianyi had already agreed when he was invited out of the mountain to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and manage the Cultural Bureau. (To be continued.) )
