Chapter 226: Stay away

"Huang Shiren? Yang Bailao? Zheng Tuoniang asked casually, and Chen Xie hurriedly waved his hand: "It's nothing, in the Americas, a pair of good friends." That wine, if you want to drink, you can take a bottle for each person, and don't move the rest, it's not easy for me to bring it from afar. ”

Chen Xie still has restrictions and can't be too casual. However, these women are red singers and the like in today's society, with great influence and greatness. In Chen Xie's view, it is very useful. A lot of things, through guò they come to spread, that's called a fast.

Zheng Tuoniang went down, and Chen Xie smiled at the two opposite: "Tuoniang's three good sisters came to her to play tricks, and the two should have two." One is Liu Ruyi, the other is Gu Xi, and the other is Li Shiniang. ”

Hearing these three names, both of them showed admiring expressions, these red cards are really not something that they poor scholars can see if they want to see. Chen Xie looked at their expressions and said with a smile: "Wait a few days, the next issue of the newspaper will come out, and some authors whose manuscripts have been selected will be invited to come to the party, and the place will be on the Qinhuai River." ”

This time, both of them were moved, and they couldn't wait to go back to writing. The wine continued to drink, and the conversation continued. Chen Xie is a good listener, and the young people's desire for expression is strong, so they are all talking, and Chen Xie listens with a smile. Dealing with them is different from dealing with a few women, these two should be guided, not fooled.

The two township talents who failed to test the first place naturally hoped that someone would listen to them, but they caught up with this wine well, and after drinking a few glasses, their faces were red, and they talked more. Talking endlessly, one will point out the country, exalt the words, and the other will complain about bad luck. The field is lost.

Unconsciously drank until two or three o'clock in the afternoon, both of them were drunk, and Chen Xie asked people to help them down to rest without mentioning it.

When I woke up, it was already dark outside the window, Gu Jikun opened his eyes and looked around, his friend Gui Zhuang Xing was not there, and when he got up, a maid came in behind the curtain at the door, and Wan Fu said: "The son is up!" With that, he put down a toilet, opened the lid and withdrew, and the curtain was closed. This arrangement is really sweet. Gu Jikun was released. As soon as he stopped at the door, the voice of the maid came: "Childe, can the slave family come in?" ”

The young man thought that everyone had heard it clearly outside just now, and he couldn't help but blush, and hurriedly packed up his clothes and said, "Come in." ”

Two fifteen or sixteen-year-old maids came in. Wash shelves. White iron basin. Rinse your mouth with warm water and wait to freshen up. Gu Jikun is like a puppet, and he has never been served like this. This is all a girl trained by a fake mother, this is just not popular, and the means of serving people are all specially trained. After mixing in the Ming Dynasty for so long, there are not a few of Chen Xie's festivals left, and there is no pressure in my heart for this kind of thing of sending maids to serve guests. Originally, they relied on this to eat, and you want to liberate women, so that people can play with you and say that you hurt her.

"Sihua, do you want to get married?" Chen Xie, who was busy at the desk, couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "If you don't mean this, why do you think so?" Zheng Toniang put down the notebook in her hand and said, "These two are members of the Restoration Society." ”

"The Restoration Society takes the inheritance of Donglin's legacy as its own responsibility, and there are not a few people who have been in the Donglin lineage. Observing the idea, it is not difficult to find that Donglin has no political achievements to make. Lectures and associations, high-minded opinions, and daring to admonish, and their reputation shocks the world. It's almost this way, and then he proclaimed himself a good minister in the world. Ridiculous! The Ming Dynasty has come to this point, after the first emperor succeeded to the throne, if it weren't for the fact that the princes of Donglin cut off many financial resources of the imperial court for the selfish interests behind them, why would the current imperial court taxes be trapped here. Commercial taxation, mine supervision, and tax department, which one of them is opposed is not an important source of finance for the imperial court. To put it mildly, they are not as good as Wei Zhongxian's eunuchs. ”

Zheng Tuoniang was frightened by this, and quickly reached out to cover Chen Xie's mouth: "Sihua, be cautious." ”

Chen Xie nodded, sighed and lowered his voice: "I know, it's just a casual sentence in private." If the Ming Dynasty dies, few of these people will die Sheji, the reason is very simple, after the change of dynasty, you have to rely on them to govern. ”

These words exploded in Zheng Toniang's mind. She believed that Chen Xie was telling the truth, which is why she was so shocked. These moral gentlemen who are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and have three outlines and five constants, are really so unbearable.

"Sihua, can you say it more carefully, I don't really understand." Zheng Tuoniang is not a strange woman who cares about the world, and she doesn't have this ability, she just cares about Chen Xie and worries about his future.

"It's very simple, when you look at the situation of a country, the first thing you look at is finance. The world's affairs are inseparable from the word interests. The financial situation of the imperial court is good, which shows that the imperial court is of one mind. Why did the first emperor believe in the eunuch party, it is a very simple truth, such a large country needs a lot of financial resources as support. What is the Donglin Party doing? They are constantly cutting off the financial resources of the imperial court, and these cut off sources are all going into private pockets. And what about the state? The cost of a huge state institution has been increasing. Donglin can't solve this problem, they won't do anything else except attack others. Why is this happening? It's still simple, because their backgrounds dictate that they will only do this. However, the imperial court needs silver, and the officials of Liaoyu, Jiubian, and Jingshi do not need silver. The problem they can't solve, Wei Zhongxian can solve it, who will you trust if you are the emperor? Even putting aside the financial problems, if you look at the period when Donglin controlled the government, he was helpless in the face of external troubles, and he was still helpless in the face of internal strife. So, it doesn't matter what a person says, you have to look at what he does. Since you are an official of the imperial court, the minimum professional ethics is that the purpose of your work is to serve the interests of the imperial court. Who are the interests of the imperial court? Who represented the imperial court? I don't need you to understand what I'm saying, just remember it and watch it slowly in the future. ”

Chen Xie's end was still the same sentence, Zheng Tuoniang couldn't help but worry: "Sihua, the concubine is just a Hongchen woman, if there is no king, she has to laugh on the Qinhuai River." The concubine has nothing else to think about, but asks for the king's well. ”

Chen Xie knew her worries, and he also knew what kind of place Nanjing was. So he smiled and comforted: "This worry is superfluous, I didn't think about going against these people within ten years." Stay away! Even if there is no shortage of arguments in Donglin that are not my generation, that is, villains, what can a group of scholars do to me? (Author's note: Huang Zongxi is a representative figure, and his views are very clear, the princes of Donglin are gentlemen, and those who hold different tunes are villains.) This Weng is very famous, and the influence is particularly bad. Xia Yunyi said: Donglin holds a high theory, and he is in the border to control the Kou, and there is no truth. Huang Zongxi retorted: The truth of the husband's border control is just a pro-gentleman and a villain. Pedantic, intolerant, incompetent! ）

Donglin is such a group of people, at the beginning of the apocalypse, the Ming Dynasty's national finances were sharply corrupted, and they contributed a lot.

Chen Xie's trip to Jiangnan has been consciously avoiding members of the Restoration Society. Gu Yanwu was just a small accident.

If you have to find one or two people from the Restoration Society who Chen Xie thinks are not bad, Gu Yanwu is one, Fang Yizhi is one, and Chen Zilong is also one. Of course, at this time, Chen Xie will not take the initiative to associate with the Fushe.

In the Ming Dynasty, it quickly became clear how influential a free newspaper was, especially among scribes. The next day, at noon, Chen Xie gently broke free from the entanglement of the jade arm, got up to freshen up, and quietly went to the next door.

Liu Rushi, who has entered a workaholic state, is already busy reading the manuscript in the editor-in-chief's office. When he saw Chen Xie, he complained: "Brother-in-law, there are too many manuscripts, hurry up and help read some." Chen Xie was unhurried, called the maid to bring tea, put it on the table for her and said: "I have to go back to Dengzhou after all, you have to get used to such a rhythm of life." ”

Pouting, Liu Ru continued to read the manuscript with her head bored, all of which were manuscripts of some poems. With the level of Liu Ruyi, I can cope with it.

Walking out of the door of the editor-in-chief's office and seeing that the editorial office next door was empty, Chen Xie was very helpless. It seems that the trip to Nanjing will have to stay for a while, and the shelves of the editorial department will be put up before leaving. Liu Ru is okay to behave, she really wants to manage a newspaper or something, she is still far behind. Therefore, the rest of the personnel must also be fully equipped.

Coming to the courtyard of the guest room, Gu Jikun and Gui Zhuangxing were talking in the courtyard, Chen Xie came over and nodded with a smile: "Morning." ”

"Mr. Sihua, there is a back door to go out here, and there are a lot of students who have submitted papers outside." Gu Jikun was embarrassed to leave, and Chen Xie said with a smile: "The editorial department of Ming Pao has not recruited people yet, and the two of you are interested in serving as editors of the first and third pages." ”

"How does this make the great talents in Nanjing like a sea, how can I take on this important responsibility when I wait for the end of my studies." Gu Jikun was obviously very tempted and polite, Chen Xie looked at it and thought it was very funny.

"Actually, it's nothing, the editor of the first edition mainly copies the news in the newspaper, and then interprets it in the vernacular, without any comments. Remember, everyone in the world knows what is going on in the world. Don't comment, in order to objectively tell the reader the facts, if there is feedback from readers, you can choose some articles appropriately and publish them in the newspaper. That's what editors do, and even if you have an opinion, don't express it in the newspaper. The content of current affairs in newspapers must be objective. As for the second edition, there are some manuscript sources that are out there, and the editor just picks them up. The third edition is personally responsible for the editor-in-chief, and the fourth edition is written by a special person. ”

"We need to talk about it." Gu Jikun looked back, and Gui Zhuang Xing smiled: "No need to discuss, I promise." As he spoke, his eyes kept looking inside, and Chen Xie turned his head and saw Li Siniang and Gu Xi waving. The sense of failure is unexpectedly strong, and it seems that he is not as attractive as the two beauties.

"Wait a minute!" Chen Xie smiled and walked over. Gu Xi said: "Brother-in-law, we're leaving, can you continue to read that script next time?" Chen Xie nodded, and Li Shiniang said, "Brother-in-law, can we come to Sister Zheng often?" ”

Chen Xie nodded again, the two women looked at each other and smiled, and each was blessed: "Thank you, brother-in-law." ”

Seeing the two of them leave Chen Xie, he didn't understand very much, but later learned that it was difficult for these women to enter the Gaomen compound after they were good. (To be continued......)
