Huang Daozhou is a famous fool, Zhang Pu in a hurry, he didn't think of this, he just thought that the relationship between himself and Huang Daozhou was good, and when he said those words, the implicit meaning, some complained about Huang Daozhou, for what kind of friends for so many years, at the critical moment, he was not able to help himself.

Huang Daozhou has been an official for many years, in the court, and even dares to debate with the emperor, the relationship between him and Zhang Pu is indeed good, the two were like-minded at the beginning, and they talked about the past and the present, very comfortable, but in the past half a year, he felt that Zhang Pu had changed, more and more like to intervene in court politics, more and more like to grasp power, the change of the Restoration Society has been greater, it has changed a little, it is no longer a place to study academics, it has become a place to pursue power interests.

The change in the resumption of the society is inseparable from the leaders, and some things are good at the top, and they are very bad at the bottom.

Huang Daozhou had long thought about talking to Zhang Pu, but he didn't expect Zhang Pu to say such words today.

His face changed slightly, and he thought of his friendship for many years, and he still spoke as softly as possible.

"Brother Zhang, you and I have known each other for so many years, there are some things I have to say, Su Tiancheng debated with you, and put forward his own point of view, whether his point of view is correct or not, you should listen carefully, Wu Weiye is your protégé, in my impression, he is also very arrogant, but he is obedient in front of Su Tiancheng, and he seems very respectful, what is this for, although I and other literati pursue arrogance, and are not used to those utilitarian ideas that tend to be inflammatory, but they can really do things, can make the people have enough food and clothing, such a utilitarian benefit, why should it be criticized. ”

Zhang Pu looked at Huang Daozhou and thought he had heard it wrong.

"Brother Huang, why do you say such words. I think that at the beginning, we talked about the past and the present, and talked about the world, all of them took the major affairs of the family and the country as our own responsibility, how can we care about those trivial things, we are concerned about the rise and fall of the world. If you are blinded by utilitarian thoughts, and all you see in your eyes are gold and silver treasures, won't you lose your scholarly integrity? ”

"The rise and fall of the world is not a big thing, is it not a small thing, is it that what we say is a castle in the air, and we ask the bureaucrats and gentry to be cautious and independent, what is the purpose? Is it to let them talk all day long and not do specific things, Brother Zhang, when Su Tiancheng talked to me, the words he said were more direct, although it was uncomfortable to listen to these words. But in hindsight, those words did make sense. ”

Zhang Pu's face sank.

"Brother Huang meant. Su Tiancheng is right, I was mistaken. ”

Zodiac Zhou still did not lose his temper and patiently explained.

"It's best to use facts to speak, we are committed to discussing academics, and we have seen such an opportunity. You might as well calm down and have a good discussion, no one is perfect, and no gold is barefoot. ”

When Zhang Pu spoke again, his tone was still a little cold.

"Brother Huang. We are like-minded and intimate, I didn't expect that just a few days later, Brother Huang changed his opinion so quickly, which made me a little panicked, could it be that Lord Shangshu Fan of the Ministry of War expressed his concept, which made you hesitate. ”

Before Zhang Pu's words were finished, Huang Daozhou stood up suddenly.

"Zhang Pu, I can't imagine that you actually said such words, what kind of person am I Huang Daozhou, in front of the emperor, I dare to speak out, will I cling to the powerful, you actually say this, I am really cold, what is the current Fushe like, what is the Donglin Academy today, what is it like, you have changed too much, you are no longer the original you, in the face of power, you have lost your way, with the heart of a villain, you can be so suspicious of me, let alone face Su Tiancheng, Thinking of our friendship in the past, I warn you the most, you think that there is no way out, Lord Zhou Yanru has resigned, think more, what will happen to you in the future, think more, and think more about which direction the Fushe should develop in the future. ”

After saying these words, Huang Daozhou didn't even look at Zhang Pu and opened his mouth.

"Huang has said goodbye, if there is nothing else important in the future, don't bother each other."

After Huang Daozhou left, Zhang Pu's face turned blue.

When he was young, because he was not valued in the family, because his mother's background was humble, so he was particularly hardworking, and he also formed an unyielding, sensitive and arrogant character, for so many years, smooth sailing, and Wei Zhongxian struggled, won the honor, after the imperial examination high school, he was respected by Zhou Yanru, the first assistant of the cabinet, in the imperial court, pointing out the country, how comfortable, the resumption of the society has grown and grown, and he has become the leader of the literary society, and even the leader of the world's scholars, the worship of everyone, What a dazzling aura this is, I can't imagine that this time, the most good friend actually said the words of breaking off friendship.

Zhang Pu didn't feel that he was wrong, on the contrary, he believed that there was a problem with Zodiac Zhou, and it was a very serious problem, and he not only had to liquidate Su Tiancheng's problem, but also help Zodiac Zhou, and not slip further and further on the wrong road.

As for Su Tiancheng, although he has done so many things, but the literati are supposed to do big things, for example, the Fushe, including Donglin Academy, provides talents for the imperial court, and pays more attention to major policies and decision-making, those specific things are not what scholars should care about, Su Tiancheng's view is not right, as for infringing on the interests of the gentry and wealthy households, in the name of the imperial court, asking the gentry and wealthy households to make contributions, it is even more impermissible.

With such an understanding and viewpoint, Zhang Pu will not make any changes, let alone bow his head and ponder.

The sad thing about Zhang Pu is here, the so-called character determines fate.

This is not only Zhang Pu's personal tragedy, but also the tragedy of many scholars in the Ming Dynasty, including Yuan Chonghuan, they always think that they are correct, noble, and represent the majority of scholars, so when doing anything, they all seem to be taken for granted, they all seem to be self-serving, there are objections, they want to suppress without hesitation, the means are cruel, and they are standing on the height of justice, but they do not know that if they make mistakes, the consequences and impacts are huge.

Two days later, Zodiac Zhou discovered that something was wrong.

He originally accepted the invitation of Qian Qianyi and others to teach at Donglin Academy in Nanjing, as a specially invited gentleman of the academy, he has a good treatment and status, plus his fame is very great, and there are many students who follow, and he has always been respected by everyone, but in the past two days, the situation has changed a lot.

The first to change his attitude was the gentleman of the academy, when he was preparing to teach, someone made it clear that he was asked to criticize Su Tiancheng's views when he was teaching, and to maintain many understandings of Donglin Academy and the Restoration Society, and then the members of the Restoration Society openly came to the academy and began to criticize Su Tiancheng's views in a big way. As a result, the students of the academy had no intention of studying and began to talk about the government on a large scale.

Huang Daozhou did not agree to directly criticize Su Tiancheng, and of course he was snubbed.

There was such a situation, Huang Daozhou was really angry, if the conversation between him and Zhang Pu belonged to some small frictions between individuals, it was impossible to completely affect the friendship between the two, but inside the academy, these things appeared, and he felt that Donglin Academy and Fushe had undergone terrible changes, and this change was the same as the party struggle within the imperial court.

The party struggle within the imperial court, in terms of form, still has this taste of concealment, and this practice of Donglin Academy and Fushe is open, and they boast that they stand on the position of justice.

Huang Daozhou went directly to Zhang Pu, the strange thing is that he couldn't find Zhang Pu, I don't know what Zhang Pu was busy with, and then went to find Qian Qianyi, but he couldn't see anyone.

After thinking about it for a whole day, Huang Daozhou resolutely submitted his resignation and decided to leave Donglin Academy.

Zodiac Zhou's actions once again caused waves.

Qian Qianyi appeared first, found Huang Daozhou, and persuaded him not to leave Donglin Academy.

Zhang Pu also appeared, and talked with Huang Daozhou, the implication is that Donglin Academy and the Fushe must adhere to their own views, and there can be no noise inside, and the Fushe is also preparing to hold a general meeting to denounce Su Tiancheng, Su Tiancheng, as an official of the imperial court, openly infringes on the interests of the gentry and wealthy families, which is a great rebellion.

This time, Huang Daozhou's words were very unpleasant, he thought that Donglin Academy and Fushe had undergone terrible changes, excluding dissidents, not thinking of making progress, and losing the atmosphere of academic research, so there was no need for him to stay here.

Huang Daozhou and Zhang Pu had a fierce quarrel again.

When he left Donglin Academy, Huang Daozhou shed tears.

His departure this time not only heralded the break with Donglin Academy and the Restoration Society, but also meant that the friendship between him and Zhang Pu and Qian Qianyi came to an end.

The changes that have taken place in Donglin Academy and the Restoration Society have made him sad, when has Donglin Academy and the Restoration Society, and the eunuch party have carried out a resolute struggle, without fear, and admired by the scholars of the world, how long has it been, for what such a huge change will happen.

Although Huang Daozhou is a fool, but by no means corrupt and broad, he once had a saying: the wise can not plan, the brave can not break, the benevolent can not defend, the righteous can not decide, Lai Sage rose up and then the world was disgraced. This is a judgment of the situation faced by the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty needs to appear extraordinary people, he once thought that Zhang Pu was once hopeful, but unfortunately he was wrong.
