Chapter 315: The Conspiracy of the Donglin Party (3)

The man said: "Isn't Zhu Youcheng known as the thirteen provinces to simultaneously suppress bandits? However, as far as I know, the provinces of Beizhili, Shaanxi, Hebei, Guizhou, and Sichuan did not send Jinyi guards to suppress bandits. ”

This situation is true, Zhu Youcheng took 5,000 Jinyi guards to the north of Liaodong, and the location of these 5,000 Jinyi guards to suppress bandits is Beizhili, Shaanxi, Hebei Province, and in order to protect King Xin, Zhu Youcheng deliberately avoided Guizhou and Sichuan, the hardest hit areas of the Lu'an Rebellion, when arranging the southern bandits.

Everyone looked at him and burst out laughing.

Hao Tujiao wiped the tears from his laughter and said, "Do you have common sense?" Since it is a claim, it is not necessarily true. Every time the imperial court sends troops, it claims to be hundreds of thousands, millions, in fact, how can there be so many soldiers? This is also a deception of the world, and the Ming Dynasty will not be able to find a military general who does not deceive the world. ”

Song Shixiang added: "And what you said is outdated for a long time, Zhu Youcheng's kid took five thousand brocade guards south to Guizhou and Sichuan a few months ago, and I don't know what the war situation is now......"

Guizhou and Sichuan are far away, and the time of the Donglin Remnants Secret Meeting was before Zhu Youcheng captured An Bangyan alive, so naturally everyone did not receive the news that the Lu'an Rebellion had been put down.

When the man heard this, his face turned red, and he burrowed into the crowd and said no more. Everyone began to fantasize about the distribution of power after the fall of Zhu Youcheng again.

Huang Gongfu is a calm person, he didn't think about winning, he thought about defeat first, he said: "Don't be complacent, Zhu Youcheng is a person who knows how to advance and retreat very well, if he really can't keep the soldiers who make mistakes, it's hard to guarantee that he won't come to tears and cut horses, and clean up the hearts of the people." Will we add to his blockage, or will we make a name for him? ”

Hao Tujiao nodded and said, "Lord Huang is reasonable, we still have to brainstorm and come up with more ways to deal with Zhu Youcheng." Let's talk about it. After all, one person counts short, and three people count long. ”

Everyone chattered for a while, and suddenly a voice said: "Give a meat bone, let the two dogs bite each other!" As the saying goes, dog eats dog, a mouthful of hair. ”

Hao Tu was overjoyed. "This idea is kind of interesting, who said that?" ”

Xiong Mingyu said proudly: "It's Xiong." ”

Hao Tujiao asked, "Who are the two dogs, and what are the meat and bones?" Tell me about it. ”

Neng Mingyu said: "The two dogs are naturally Wei Zhongxian's old gelding dog and Zhu Youcheng's leprosy dog, and the meat and bones are Xiangquan." Although Wei Zhongxian is only a eunuch who is the master of ceremonies and the eunuch of the pen, not the eunuch who holds the seal of the master of ceremonies, he is actually the inner minister of the Ming Dynasty. And Zhu Youcheng is the only candidate to replace the first assistant of the cabinet in the future, that is, the foreign minister of the Ming Dynasty. Isn't there a contradiction between the inner and outer phases? And the personalities of the two are very different, Wei Zhongxian is greedy for money and good name, while Zhu Youcheng is indifferent to fame and fortune. When two people like this come together, there must be a fierce conflict, and we just have to be on the side to help the flames. ”

Huang Gongfu shook his head like a wave drum and said, "No, no, Mr. Xiong only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other." Everyone in the capital knows that Zhu Youcheng and Wei Zhongxian are grandchildren and have this relationship. The great contradiction can also be laughed off. After Wei Zhongxian is dead, isn't it cheap to accumulate a lot of personal goods Zhu Youcheng's dog thing? Even if you don't look at family affection. Looking at the division of furniture, Zhu Youcheng has to let Wei Zhongxian go. ”

Xiong Mingyu said with a smile: "I have lived in Beijing for a long time, don't I know this rumor." But the eunuch is gone, and the world knows it. In order to continue the incense, Wei Zhongxian accepted ten sons and forty grandchildren, all of whom were godparents. It's uncountable. And Zhu Youcheng is still his grandson, and he can't even mix with his godgrandson, and his relationship with Wei Zhongxian is not close. ”

Huang Gongfu said: "No, no, his grandson didn't do it." It's pro. Although eunuchs could not have children, there were also a few eunuchs who became adults and left offspring. This is the case of Wei Zhongxian, he was in his thirties from the palace, the reason is unknown, I guess he owes gambling debts and wants to pay the bill. He had a daughter who later married and gave birth to a baby boy......"

Xiong Mingyu suddenly realized and said, "That baby boy is Zhu Youcheng?" ”

Huang Gongfu said: "No, no, the baby boy was taken away after the full moon and disappeared." After Wei Zhongxian's career, Dasuo Cangzhou City still found nothing. And Zhu Youcheng was originally a little beggar in Beijing, living in a dilapidated temple on the outskirts of Beijing, because he looked like Wei Zhongxian, and his birthday was matched with Wei Zhongxian's missing grandson, so the old gelding dog thought that Zhu Youcheng was his grandson. ”

Xiong Mingyu said: "Do you have any special marks on your body?" For example, moles, birthmarks, etc.? ”

Huang Gongfu thought for a moment and said, "It wasn't mentioned in the rumors, probably not." But the looks are so similar, nine times out of ten are true. ”

This time, Xiong Mingyu shook his head: "Non-yes, non-yes." The so-called similarity of things, similarity of people, and similarity in appearance are not accurate. Searching for relatives like this is too child's play. Hey, no, it's the old gelding dog looking for relatives, and it's not our Donglin Party looking for relatives, what am I doing with so much heart? The old gelding found the wrong parent, and that's a good thing. ”

Hao Tujiao suddenly shouted, "What did you just say? ”

Xiong Mingyu was startled, meditated on what he just said, and there seemed to be nothing taboo about it.

He replied, "No," he replied expectantly....... Didn't say anything......"

Hao Tu said: "Did you just say that the old gelding dog found the wrong parent, that's a good thing, right?" ”

"Yes...... Yes, is it wrong? ”

"That's right, that's right. Old Xiong, you are such a genius, and I was stunned when I said it. Hao Tuxuan laughed and walked to Xiong Mingyu's side and patted him on the shoulder.

"Come, everyone, listen to me slowly." Hao Tujiao beckoned, so that the Donglin party members gathered around him.

Because it was a conspiracy, Hao Tuxuan couldn't help but lower his voice.

"The kinship between Wei Zhongxian and Zhu Youcheng has no actual evidence, it all depends on that face. So is Zhu Youcheng Wei Zhongxian's grandson? That's a problem. Wei Zhongxian's grandson disappeared in Cangzhou, so the person who abducted and sold the old gelding dog must be a trafficker in Cangzhou. Let's find out him, and we won't be able to know if Zhu Youcheng is the grandson of the old gelding. Do you understand? ”

Everyone shook their heads in unison.

Hao Tujiao was a little depressed, he was really not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like comrades-in-arms, such a simple thing, why couldn't everyone understand?

Wang Xiangchun said: "Lord Hao, it's not that we can't understand your words, it's just that your voice is too low, and everyone can't hear it clearly." Lord Hao doesn't have to worry about leaks, it's very safe here, otherwise why do you think we chose this shabby place for a meeting? ”

Hao Tuyan smiled awkwardly and repeated it again in his normal voice.

Xiong Mingyu asked strangely: "Why do you want to help the old gelding, does Lord Hao want to defect to the eunuch party?" ”

Wan Yan said: "Hey, why don't you even understand this." If Wei Zhongxian and Zhu Youcheng are not related by blood, then your two-dog plan can come in handy. ”

Xiong Mingyu asked, "But what if they are related by blood?" ”

Wan Yanyang looked at Xiong Mingyu with eyes like a fool, and said, "Let's go to find it, do you think we can find evidence that they are related?" ”

Huang Gongfu said: "I'll look for it, Xu Ruzhi, the prefect of Cangzhou, has an old relationship with me, so it's right to ask him for help." ”

Song Shixiang said: "Don't look for Xu Ruzhi. Zhu Youcheng helped Xu Ruzhi suppress the bandits, and also gave him a lot of credit. He must be grateful to Zhu Youcheng and become Zhu Youcheng's loyal dog. Looking for Xu Ruzhi is equivalent to suing Zhu Youcheng, and we have to deal with him. ”

Wan Yan said: "I remember that when Zhu Youcheng returned to the court after victory, the Tongzhi of Hejian Mansion seemed to impeach him for killing prisoners. As a result, the impeachment failed, and the emperor also issued an order to reprimand him. He must hate Zhu Youcheng to the core, so look for him. ”

Song Shixiang said: "I will take charge of Cangzhou Mansion in Hejian Mansion, and I know that I am involved in the affairs of Cangzhou, and it is justified to find him." Hejian Mansion Tongzhi surnamed Tao Mingtao, a person from Fujian, once claimed to join the Donglin Party. However, his mentor Miao Changqi said that he was vulgar and profitable, and refused his request. He didn't hold a grudge, the last time he impeached Zhu Youcheng, half of it was because he couldn't see Zhu Youcheng being barbaric and easy to kill, and the other half was also to avenge the Donglin Party. ”

The crowd chattered for a long time, designing the conspiracy to be even more impeccable. (To be continued......)
