Chapter 287: Response (2)
(Thank you for the Navy Bell and the precious monthly ticket cast by the Imperial Sunset, thank you.) )
Fan Jingwen's expression soon became serious again.
Su Tiancheng is a little strange, is there anything else, according to the conditions he said, it is not a big deal, Fan Jingwen has already expressed his position, Zhang Taining also nodded, there should be nothing to do, after all, the military salary of the Jiangning battalion is the responsibility of the county government of Jiangning County, and he did not ask the court to pay for the silver, so he can't ask himself to maintain the stability of the two battalions.
Fan Jingwen looked at Zhang Taining and spoke again.
"Master Su, you should still have an impression of what Zhang Pu debated with you."
"My lord, Zhang Pu and Xia Guan are classmates, and there are some arguments between them, nothing unusual."
"Hehe, I don't think so."
"Why do you say that?"
"The Zhongxing Society that is about to be established, I think it is the best counterattack, this method is very good, the establishment of the Society, the maximum gathering of the world's scholars, a lot of things, through the Society, the maximum spread of the public, however, you are thinking of a way, Zhang Pu is not idle, he must have moved."
Su Tiancheng's expression also became serious.
When he was in the capital, this was the thing he thought about the most, after all, Zhang Pu was the leader of the Restoration Society, and he had a lot of influence among the scholars, and the strength of the Restoration Society was intricate, and it was inextricably linked with many officials in the imperial court.
Fortunately, he is an official of the imperial court, and all his measures have been strongly supported by Fan Jingwen, so in the area of Nanzhili, Zhang Pu and Fushe did not dare to act rashly.
"Your Excellency. The topic of controversy between Xia Guan and Zhang Pu is mainly about the government of the court, and the Xia Guan once made it clear that Zhang Pu is not an official of the court and can discuss the government and politics. However, they must not interfere in the affairs of the government, including Donglin Academy and the Restoration Society, and they must not openly meddle in the affairs of the government just because they have won the support of scholars. ”
"I know what you said, but it's a pity that Zhang Pu doesn't think like this, General Zhang, it's better for you to talk about it first."
Su Tiancheng's heart. He chuckled again, and asked Zhang Taining to say it first.
Originally, he thought that Zhang Pu might organize the members of the Restoration Society to create public opinion in Nanzhili and even all parts of the Ming Dynasty to oppose the infringement of the interests of the gentry and wealthy households, and once again emphasized the respect for the classics and demanded that everything be done in accordance with the requirements of the ancestors. This is also something that can resonate with the gentry, the gentry and the wealthy. It will be strongly supported.
However, after returning to Jiangning County, no action in this regard was found, and even the third general meeting of the resumption of the society was not held. He estimated that Zhou Yanru resigned, which still had a certain impact on Zhang Pu. Wen Tiren's impression of Zhang Pu is very bad, maybe he has taken some form to warn Zhang Pu, which makes Zhang Pu panic, and it is normal to have no action.
I can't imagine that things are not that simple. Zhang Pu still has a move.
Zhang Taining spoke, could it be that Zhang Pu stretched out his hand to the two battalions.
Thinking of Fan Jingwen's request for Jiangning County to support the two battalions, Su Tiancheng shuddered, maybe Zhang Pu was mad and dared to do something rebellious.
"Master Su, Zhang Pu found me, specifically talked about the Jiangning camp and the two battalions, and it was reasonable for the lord to ask Jiangning County to give some necessary assistance to the two battalions. Zhang Pu believes that there is a big gap between the salaries of the officers and men of the two battalions and the Jiangning battalion, which is inappropriate, and it will seriously affect the morale of the officers and men of the two battalions, and even affect the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty guards. ”
Su Tiancheng's face began to turn pale, and Zhang Pu estimated that he was crazy.
"Zhang Pu said that there are two solutions, one is that the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion cannot get so much military salary, and they must be the same as the military salaries of the soldiers of the two battalions, and the second is that Lord Su is to blame, and the court must severely punish him, including Lord Fan, as the commander of the Jiangning battalion, he is responsible."
Su Tiancheng looked at Fan Jingwen, and Fan Jingwen's face was full of a sneer.
"Zhang Pu suggested that I impeach the Jiangning battalion, of course I reprimanded Zhang Pu, when I reported this matter to the adults, my suggestion was to take measures, Zhang Pu had such an idea, it was obviously to disturb the morale of the army, my sergeant of the Ming Dynasty guard, because of the matter of military salaries, there has been a precedent of mutiny, Zhang Pu's move is obviously to shake the foundation of my Ming Dynasty."
Zhang Taining said that he was a little excited, and his face turned a little red.
Zhang Taining had just finished speaking, and Fan Jingwen spoke.
"I used to have a good impression of Zhang Pu, and in the year of establishment, I was able to organize a huge resumption of society, and the disciples were all over the place, and even the palace to test Wu Weiye was also from his disciples, which is enough to prove that he is capable, however, Zhang Pu openly found General Zhang and said such a rebellious thing, which surprised me, and was more angry. For the sake of his own selfish interests, for some theoretical disputes, he actually dares to ignore his family and country, what kind of situation will this kind of scholar be if he really holds the authority in the imperial court, wouldn't it be a disaster to the world. ”
Su Tiancheng has sunk his face, Zhang Pu's actions were completely beyond his expectations, looking back, such a situation is not particularly unusual, the party struggle in the court is in full swing, if these court officials can think of the court as the priority, it will not drag the Ming Dynasty into the bottomless abyss.
"Master Su, Zhang Pu and you are classmates, I want to hear what you think."
"My lord, the views of the lower officials and General Zhang are the same."
"Oh, why do you think that?"
"My lord, Xia Guan and Zhang Pu are classmates, they participated in the meeting examination and the palace examination together, there are some arguments about the court and politics, this is a normal situation, it is a big deal for us to prove each other, who is right, however, Xia Guan thinks that everything should be its own bottom line, if it is to achieve the goal, lose the basic criteria, and even ignore the court, it will be very terrible, Zhang Pu found General Zhang, and said such words, which shows that he is already Li Lingzhi faint."
"Zhang Pu, as the leader of the Restoration Society, has a lot of appeal, the lower officials have debated with him, and found that he is extremely conceited, he doesn't care about the opinions of others, the influence of the Restoration Society is not small, it is precisely because of this that Zhang Pu's arrogance has been promoted, if Zhang Pu wants to provoke the sergeants of the two battalions, he will definitely do so."
"The stability of the two battalions is the most important thing, including the stability of the sergeants of the Nanzhili Guard, if there is a problem, it is not just as simple as the shock of the imperial court, the Liukou has slowly moved towards the south, at this time, the sergeant of Nanzhili, if there is a wavering, it just gives the Liukou an opportunity, and the Liukou enters the south, which will lead to terrible consequences."
"Xiaguan thinks that the rest of the things can be debated with Zhang Pu, or even done against him, Xiaguan suggested the establishment of the Zhongxing Society, just thinking about defeating the Fushe from the front, but Zhang Pu has such an idea, he must not be soft, this is not something that can be debated, I believe Zhang Pu himself should understand what the consequences of doing this are, since he has no care about the stability of the country, then there is no need for the government to be polite."
Fan Jingwen's eyebrows twitched.
"Master Su, then tell me how to deal with Zhang Pu."
"Zhang Pu is a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, still registered, because of his father's funeral, guarding the system at home, and the intention of the lower officials, Zhang Pu will be escorted to the capital, reported to the court, and will be disposed of by the court."
"But have you ever thought about it, Zhang Pu is the leader of the Restoration Society, and this move will definitely cause a lot of waves."
"The lower officials think that it is certain to cause waves, but compared with shaking the morale of the army, escorting Zhang Pu to the capital is the best way to deal with it, if Zhang Pu is really allowed to move around, and even instigate the soldiers of the two battalions to protest, at that time, it will be too late to deal with it."
Fan Jingwen didn't speak for the time being, Zhang Taining was about to speak, but saw that Fan Jingwen didn't speak, and he didn't speak.
Su Tiancheng knew that Fan Jingwen had concerns, after all, Zhang Pu's influence was too great.
"My lord, the lower officials think that this matter cannot be delayed, Zhang Pu found General Zhang, was reprimanded, and will not give up, the two battalions may have made the necessary precautions, but there are still so many guards in Nanzhili, if Zhang Pu shifts the target and goes to other guards to agitate, the consequences will be even more serious."
Hearing Su Tiancheng say this, Fan Jingwen was a little breathless.
"Master Su, why do you say that Zhang Pu will go to other guards to agitate."
"This is the intuition of the lower officials, besides, the lower officials think that they are not afraid of 10,000, but they are afraid that in case, if Zhang Pu goes to other guards to agitate, it will lead to uncontrollable consequences, and it will be too late."
Fan Jingwen stood up and hurriedly walked a few steps.
"General Zhang, order the sergeant to go directly to arrest Zhang Pu."
Zhang Taining hesitated a little, the matter of arresting people should be the matter of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and it seems that it is not very easy to say that the two battalions came forward, after all, the army cannot interfere in local affairs.
Seeing Zhang Taining's hesitation, Su Tiancheng opened his mouth with interest.
"General Zhang, my lord thinks that this matter is very important, and it involves the affairs of the military camp, so he asked the two battalions to arrest Zhang Pu, and this matter does not belong to the local matter."
Zhang Taining suddenly realized.
After Zhang Taining left, Fan Jingwen looked at Su Tiancheng and spoke, but his voice seemed a little old.
"Master Su, I hope there are no twists and turns, there are many things in the court, you also know the Tao, Donglin Academy and the Restoration Society, the impact is not small, the establishment of the Zhongxing Society, is the best way, what ideas do you have, put them on the table to argue, speak with facts, think very comprehensively."
"You are really good, you don't depend on Donglin Academy and Fushe, and you dare to do it, if you are a scholar in the world, you can take the revitalization of the dynasty as your own responsibility, and the court will not face so many problems." (To be continued.) )
