On the night of Xiucai's return, Yang Bo had a candlestick night conversation with him in the sea-view room......

The news brought back by Xiucai gave Yang Bo a big headache, because now he was bent on stammering Wen Tiren, who had thick legs, and he thought that Wen Tiren was in control of the government and decided in one word.

Wen Tiren is fighting with Zhou Yanru to the death, and Wen Tiren's reputation at the moment is so bad that those who hear it are sad and those who see it cry, Yang Bo suddenly felt that his wishful thinking was simply a joke.

"My lord, a few days ago, the Criminal Department gave Huang Shaojie a dredging in the matter, since Wen Tiren entered the cabinet, natural disasters [***] have continued, Wen Tiren is a big ominous person, please stop. Although His Majesty is not gullible, but in the streets and alleys of Beijing, it is sung everywhere, and the folk song says: Emperor Chongzhen has suffered from the plague (Wen) ......! ”

Yang Bo snorted, splashing dirty water, buttoning his hat is nothing new, he said that he prides himself on attaching importance to propaganda work and is good at mobilizing mass struggles.

Years of experience in office intrigue made him feel that the background of this matter was not simple, so he asked: "Since it is the one who is in the middle of the matter, why has it been spread among the people of Beijing as early as possible?" ”

Xiucai Gong didn't answer, and said: "Far more than that, there are many folk songs in Jingshi, such as: the cabinet is translated into a museum, Wugui Wang Ba Liang piece, always plague (Wen), with the name of the family as an insinuation, directly pointing to Wen Tiren and his henchmen, the content is filthy (Wen Tiren is from Wucheng, Zhejiang, now Huzhou), I heard that although Wen Tiren is calm on the surface, but after returning home, he sighed and had no ......way to deal with it."

Yang Bo held his hands behind his back, unconsciously turning in circles, his scarce historical knowledge told him that although Wen Tiren was honored to enter the Ming Dynasty History Annihilation of the Minister's Biography, he was posthumously presented as Taifu after his death, and his nickname was Wenzhong, after Emperor Anzong Zhu Yousong ascended the throne in Nanjing, he first cut his nickname, and then restored, and the historical records are very contradictory to reality......

Anyway, Wen Tiren worked for eight years before stepping down, and who else has the ability to work for eight years in the Chongzhen cabinet where the surname is suspicious, the person is cold, and the replacement is like changing clothes? It stands to reason that he should be Emperor Chongzhen's very favored minister, why is what Xiucai Gong said in his mouth very different? As if Wen Tiren's current position is in jeopardy?

"Has Wen Tiren become the first assistant?" Yang Bo asked.

"You're fighting with Zhou Yanru to the death." Xiucai sighed, he didn't gain anything from going to Jingshi this time, and the only gain was to come back after listening to countless gossip.

"I see"

Yang Bo suddenly realized that there is nothing surprising about using various means to smear opponents in political struggles, but the strange thing is, what kind of character is Zhou Yanru? Can you actually indulge the people of Beijing? Fight with public opinion warfare so that Wen Tiren can't raise his head?

"Xiucai, tell me about Zhou Yanru" Yang Bo finally determined that this was an organized and premeditated political struggle.

"What gain can I gain from this battle between the first and second of the dynasty?" Anton Wei Shijiu, a small deputy Qianhu, thought very arrogantly......

Xiucai nodded, he knew that Yang Bo would definitely ask about Zhou Yanru, so he did his homework early in the morning, took a sip of tea and said: "Zhou Yanru, in December of the second year of Chongzhen, he was a scholar of the Ministry of Rites and a scholar of Dongge University, and participated in the maintenance of the machine, and in September of the following year (the third year of Chongzhen), he was the first assistant, and in February of the fourth year, he added the prince Taibao, changed to Wenyuan Pavilion, and in June, Wen Tiren also entered the cabinet. Zhou Wen and the two originally teamed up to defeat Qian Qianyi, but when there was only one head and assistant in the court, Wen Tiren was ambitious, and he refused to live behind others, so he was ......"

"What excuse did Wen Tiren use to attack Zhou Yanru?" Yang Bo is most concerned about this

"Wen Tiren said that Zhou Yanru tried to take bribes, cultivate party henchmen, cheat, sell official positions, and the most important thing is that Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Shandong," Xiucai said very succinctly

Yang Bo nodded, Dengzhou is erosive, Wen Tiren is called a fool if he doesn't use Sun Yuanhua's knife.

"Xiucai, do you think Wen Tiren can fight Zhou Yanru?" Yang Bo felt that his head was a little big, and he had a feeling that he wanted to participate but didn't know where to start.

Xiucai shook his head: "Then Zhou Yanru Jian is in the emperor's heart, how can he be easy?" His henchmen are all over the world, there are many protégés and former officials, Wen Tiren is delusional, he flatters Zhou Yanru on the surface, and secretly looks hot for the position of the first assistant, and the grasshopper shakes the tree, which is ridiculous! But I don't know why adults are optimistic about him? I think this person ......"

"Oh?"

Yang Bo was surprised, although Zhou Yanru spread rumors in Beijing, what use could this kind of trick do for the court dispute, and what use did it do for defeating Wen Tiren? Xiucai will not be more optimistic about Zhou Yanru for no reason, there is an article here!

"My lord, this matter is a long story......" Xiucai pulled out a few stacks of densely written papers from the package.

"Magnolia, bring some supper!" Yang Bo is very interested, this should be regarded as his first real participation in the historical process, right?

Xiucai is very eloquent, and he carefully collects news from all walks of life, but he also talks about the head of the way, and Yang Bo can't help but nod his head

History, finally lifted the veil of mystery in front of him, not from the history books, but from a more neutral participant......

It can be said that the various historical trends in the late Ming Dynasty have a great deal to do with this Donglin Party.

In the master and out of the slave, love and hate from the heart, the female yellow letter, the Donglin Party scolding people is quite powerful, not only from the moral, **, spiritual fuss, even the surname, the place of origin is inevitably suffered, but no matter how these people do it, it is inevitable that the fate of the yellow flower yesterday.

Chongzhen's five-year Donglin Party, like a piece of dung, although the stench is incomparable, but it has nourished countless flowers and plants, in this pile of dung, there is a flower that grows extraordinarily charming and moving, this is the Restoration Society.

Unlike the Donglin Party, which is obsessed with government politics, the Fushe focuses on scientific research, and the slogan they put forward is: meeting friends with literature and discussing government politics.

Meeting friends with literature is the premise, and discussing the government is the goal......

Discussing the government is the ultimate dream of every scholar in all dynasties!

Therefore, with this slogan, the Fushe continued to grow and develop, and soon expanded from Jiangnan to Jiangbei, and then developed to Hebei and other places, so there are Jiangnan Ying Society, Jiangbei Ying Society, Hebei Ying Society and other names, Chongzhen in the early years, but also in Yanjing established Yantai Society, Ying She also from a small literary society in Jiangnan to a giant Mac.

In the second year of Chongzhen, the inaugural meeting of the Fushe was held in Wujiang - the Yishan Conference, which merged the Songjiang Society, Suzhou Yupeng Society, Kuang Society, Zhejiang West Wen Society, Zhuang Society, Zhedong Chao Society, Jiangbei South Society, Jiangxi Zeshe Society, Liting Xi Society, Kunyang Yunjian Society, Wulin Reading Society, Shanzuo Great Society, Zhongzhou Duan Society, Laiyang Yi Society, Huangzhou Quality Society, etc.

As a result, the Fushe became the largest opposition party in the dynasty, replacing the infamous Donglin Party, but it is the same as the Donglin Party

The Restoration Society is called: "the party is half the world", its members are all over the provinces, there are only 3,000 and 25 people whose names can be examined, and the people on the record are only the backbone members of the Restoration Society, and sometimes some members of the Restoration Society boast of saying: "There has never been a lot of people in the society, and there has never been a prosperous person in the social arts, and there are many of them in the future."

The Restoration Society has its own constitution and oath of membership, and in terms of organizational structure, each county has a person in charge, and the members have a real-name system, and the collection of documents of each branch is compiled into a book called "National Edition", in which the name of each member is included.

For those who read in the world, there are two of the three in the Restoration Society, or even more......

"I Grass"

Hearing this, Yang Bo was taken aback, who said that the ancients had no creativity and imagination? Is it okay to get rid of this revival of the society and the prototype of a political party in later generations? There is an organization, there is a party constitution, there are goals, and there are --- party chairmen and vice-chairmen.

"Zhou Yanru is from Yixing, that is the sphere of influence of the Restoration Society, Chongzhen for four years, Wu Weiye, a member of the Restoration Society, is the first in high school, and Chen Yutai will try to be the top student in high school............" Xiucai said slowly

Hearing this, Yang Bo began to understand that this is the so-called imperial examination of the Restoration Society, and this is the most important means of the Restoration Society.

"Huh"

Yang Bo waved his hand: "I guess, it should be Zhou Yanru and Lord Zhou who presided over the examination that year, right?" ”

Xiucai nodded, his face full of admiration.

"Could it be that Wen Tiren didn't move?" Yang Bo asked

"How could Wen Tiren give up this opportunity? After the examination, Wu Weiye took the exam with his record, and his moral character was not cultivated, and the poetry and articles of Zhou Yanru's in-law Chen Yutai were bland, and the name of the champion did not match the truth, but the matter was finally settled."

Yang Bo snorted coldly again, Chongzhen was suspicious, although this matter was not resolved in the end, but it was inevitable to have a pimple in his heart, which was good news.

That Wu Weiye is a very famous person in history, his alias Mr. Mei Village, and Qian Qianyi, Gong Dingyu and called Jiang Zuo's three families, Shunzhi ten years, was called into the secretary of the palace to speak, looking for the promotion of the son of the country to supervise the sacrificial wine, the literati shameless, advocating excellence is also difficult to look at its back, a certain Ling in Kebai, loudly to Mei Cun said: 'What is the loss of the surname Zhu to you? 'Plum Village is red-faced.

Of course, it is recorded in the history books like this, what: "... There are many persecutions, Wu Weiye resigned, and the two relatives begged each other, and the last resort was to enter the capital, "Balabala, alive and well, and he is a literati example who retains Dan's heart......

Of course, all this has nothing to do with Yang Bo, and it is rare that this Wu Weiye can blush and continue to be an official.

What he is most concerned about now is that the Restoration Society, this behemoth has finally revealed its true face in front of him, and even Zhou Yanru, the head of the court, will be at its mercy, so what about the other officials? Obviously, Emperor Chongzhen had realized this problem, and while Zhou Yanru was trying to weave the net of the Restoration Society, Wen Tiren was standing at the highest point of the court and fighting alone.

Yang Bo shuddered when he thought of this......

"Who is the head of the Restoration Society?" Yang Bo calmed down and asked

"In the early years of Chongzhen, there were four literary societies, among which the person who held the bull's ear, Zhang Pu also" Xiucai shook his head and replied
