Seeing that Xu Fo's family was taken away by the people of Ying Tianfu, the pawn's body trembled, according to his identity and status, he went to Qinhuai River, and he couldn't see a Qinglou woman like Xu Fo's family at all, let alone Gu Hengbo and others, this time Xu Fo's family was detained in prison, seeing that the opportunity came, he could feast his mouth, but at the critical moment, he was directly taken away by Ying Tianfu.

In the restaurant, Chen Zhenhui, Mao Xiang and Hou Fangyu were laughing and drinking, and Fang Yizhi had already left Nanjing and went home.

The highest interest is still Hou Fangyu and Mao Xiang, relatively speaking, Chen Zhenhui is calmer, after all, the age is different.

There was no one else in the private room, not even a man pouring wine on the side, the jug was in the middle, and the three of them were pouring their own drinks, they were discussing things, and they didn't want outsiders to be present.

Although they are called the four sons, it does not mean that the four of them are together all the time, they are all very familiar, Chen Zhenhui's hometown is in Wuxi, Suzhou, Mao Xiang's hometown is in Rugao County, Yangzhou, Fang Yizhi's hometown is in Anqing Mansion, as for Hou Fangyu, his hometown is far away in Henan Guidefu, it is said that it is basically difficult for such four people to have a chance to meet.

However, there is one place that connects the four sons, and they have an unusual connection with each other, that is, Nanjing Guozijian, all four of them are studying in Nanjing Guozijian, and all four of them are members of Donglin Academy, Fushe and Yingshe, which makes the connection between them even more connected.

Hou Fangyu was going to go to the capital to study, but his uncle Hou Ke used to be the Nanjing Guozi Supervisor of the sacrificial wine, because of the accumulation of hard work, Chongzhen died of illness in seven years, and he was only forty-three years old when he died.

The common pursuit, and all have some talent, the family background is not ordinary, a typical scholar family. let the four of them get very close to Guozijian, coupled with the praise of Donglin Academy, Fushe and Yingshe, the four people who are often together have gradually gained the reputation of the four sons. It also makes their relationship more intimate.

"Brother Dingsheng, Brother Bijiang, don't think about being reserved this time, when you get to the prison, I'm afraid I'll be so scared that I will say everything."

Hou Fangyu finished speaking. Mao Xiang followed and spoke.

"That's needless to say, I'm afraid that if you don't ask the clerk and pawn, you will have to admit whatever people say."

Chen Zhenhui frowned slightly, this is not a glorious thing after all, it is not used to saying it in such a tone.

"Bijiang, Chaozong, this time we will take action, dealing with a Qinglou woman, it is not something worth showing off. No matter what the Xu Fojia behaves in the prison, it is not worth commenting on, this matter must be kept absolutely confidential, if it weren't for that Zheng Xunrui, we wouldn't have done such a thing, insulting the scholar Sven. ”

Chen Zhenhui's words made Mao Xiang lower his head, but the youngest Hou Fangyu would not look at it this way, he was only twenty years old after all. The blood is strong, and the activities that he once did for his father in the capital have been successful, and he thinks that he can do everything well.

"Brother Dingsheng. I don't see it this way, when Zheng Xunrui was in Qinhuaihe, he cut off his robe with Brother Tianru and Brother Zichang, and even insulted Brother Xiaokai, at that time, he Zheng Xunrui thought of the face of a scholar, and after Huai'an became the governor of Caoyun. It is even more intensified, squeezing out the Donglin students in Huaibei, such arbitrariness, using the power in their hands to suppress the readers, where is the thing that the reader can do, where is there a little bit of the scholar's Sven, we do this, but to treat others in their own way, there is no need to have any guilt. ”

Hou Fangyu's words made Chen Zhenhui nod slightly, and Mao Xiang also raised his head.

Among the four sons, it can be said that the contradiction between Hou Fangyu and Zheng Xunrui is the largest, of course, this is not because of the grievances caused by the conflict between individuals, Hou Fangyu is one of the leaders of the Fushe, and he became one of the leaders with the support of Zhang Pu, so Zhang Pu's opponent is his opponent, Zhang Pu's enemy is his enemy.

From this aspect, the contradiction between Hou Fangyu and Zheng Xunrui is the deepest, and Hou Fangyu's father Hou Xun is a cabinet minister of the imperial court, which also makes Hou Fangyu fearless, even if he offends Zheng Xunrui, there are old men who will come forward to settle it.

Chen Zhenhui and Mao Xiang's expressions changed, of course Hou Fangyu could see it, and when he said this, his doubts also came.

"Brother Dingsheng, Brother Bijiang, I don't know something, Zheng Xunrui is the crown prince after all, the governor of Caoyun, he said for no reason that he colluded with the Liukou, and it was exposed by the Xu Fojia, this is impossible for the court to believe, so far I don't dare to tell my father about this matter, if such a thing is spread to the court, I am afraid it will backfire."

Mao Xiang didn't understand very well, and looked at Chen Zhenhui, the whole thing was planned by Chen Zhenhui, it is said that this kind of plan, no matter from which point of view, can not be regarded as a success, if the court sends someone to review, there may be an accident.

Chen Zhenhui smiled, and the smile was very elusive.

"Bijiang, Chaozong, after so many days, you finally asked this question, I thought you hadn't thought about it all along, and I felt disappointed, since you asked today, then I will tell you in detail."

"Yes, just with this testimony of the Xu Fo family, Zheng Xunrui can't be moved at all, if Zheng Xunrui is brought down so easily, then he is not Zheng Xunrui, don't say that no one in the court believes that Zheng Xunrui will collude with the Liukou, and no one will believe it even in Nanjing."

When Chen Zhenhui said this, Mao Xiang and Hou Fangyu's eyes widened, since there is no effect, what is the use of using such a scheme, if you offend Zheng Xunrui, people will retaliate.

"I will talk about it on two levels, first of all, the Xu Buddha family, once the Xu Buddha family admits that Zheng Xunrui is the mastermind of colluding with the rogues, she will die, the court will not believe such a thing, and will definitely send the imperial history to investigate, even if the Xu Buddha family retracts the confession, the crime of framing the minister of the court will be confirmed, what is the identity of the Xu Buddha family, but it is the shopkeeper of the Qinglou, to put it bluntly, it is a woman in the Qinglou, such an identity dares to frame the prince Shaobao, is there still a chance to live."

Mao Xiang's body trembled slightly, Hou Fangyu's face turned slightly pale, of course they understood what Chen Zhenhui meant, no matter how things developed, the Xu Fo family was doomed.

"The second level, the impact on Zheng Xunrui, on the surface, this matter will not have any impact on Zheng Xunrui, but you know that the Zheng family army controlled by Zheng Xunrui is extremely brave, and has defeated the Houjin Tartar several times, will the adults in the court not be worried, will they not be able to play a setback, the emperor will not believe that Zheng Xunrui colluded with the rogue, but he is worried about the Zheng family."

"The imperial history found out that Zheng Xunrui did not collude with the rogue, the emperor didn't believe it, and he wouldn't pursue it, but if this kind of twist and turn goes up, who can guarantee that the adults in the court will not mention other things, the momentum we created in Nanjing will eventually cause waves in the capital, and at that time, won't Tianru brothers take the opportunity to impeach."

"Besides, the relationship between Xu Fo's family and Zheng Xunrui is very good, everyone knows about Qinhuaihe back then, if Liu Yin knew that Xu Fo's family was in danger, he must have asked Zheng Xunrui to come to the rescue, if Zheng Xunrui came to the rescue and saved the Qinglou woman who framed him, what would outsiders think."

"In order to avoid suspicion, Zheng Xunrui is not easy to come forward to rescue, in this case, Xu Fo's family can't save his life, such a thing spreads, what will outsiders think of Zheng Xunrui, the reputation of indifference is indispensable."

"Zheng Xunrui came to the rescue, and it was even more difficult if he didn't make a move, I wanted to see what good way this youngest champion of the palace test and the youngest prince Shaobao in the Ming Dynasty could think of."

When Chen Zhenhui said this, Hou Fangyu slapped him.

"Brother Dingsheng's thoughts are very thorough, not leaking, Zheng Xunrui is the enemy of Donglin Academy, he has to think of such a way to deal with it, otherwise he will enter the cabinet in the future, wouldn't he want to suppress Donglin Academy like the eunuchs back then."

Mao Xiang looked at Chen Zhenhui with a strange expression.

The connection between the four sons is very close, and they often talk together on weekdays, and they generally know each other's ideas, Chen Zhenhui is older and sees the problem more profoundly, so he has become the leader of the four sons, but in terms of scheming, Chen Zhenhui is not so mature, after all, the focus on studying on weekdays is articles.

In such a short period of time, Chen Zhenhui thought of such a watertight strategy, which seemed unlikely.

However, Mao Xiang will not ask, what Chen Zhenhui did was actually for Donglin Academy, Fushe and Yingshe, there was no personal grudge between the fourth prince and Zheng Xunrui, and they had not even met.

Mao Xiang's expression was noticed by Chen Zhenhui, and he picked up his wine glass.

"Bijiang, Chaozong, I said so much, just to let you understand that the game is very cruel, it is by no means as simple as we imagined, the game in the court is even more cruel, we often talk about the government, but one thing must be understood, no matter how we talk about it, if we can't participate in the decision-making of the government, it is not of much use, only by participating in it, being able to speak, or even a word, can it really change the situation."

Chen Zhenhui's words shocked Mao Xiang and Hou Fangyu, they really didn't think of so much, and even some idealistic colors, thinking that through the resumption of the society and the response to the society, calling on the world's scholars to make suggestions, they can really change many decisions of the imperial court, and now it seems that if they can't participate in it, I'm afraid that speaking will not have much effect.

If you want to enter the imperial court and decide your own fate, you still have to take the road of the imperial examination.

There was silence in the private room. (To be continued.) )
