(The long holiday is over, thank you for your great support.) ）

Wu Weiye was taken to Donglin Book House this time.

Seeing the four big characters of Donglin Book House on the eaves, Wu Weiye was stunned, this is something he never dreamed of, it is said that the Donglin Party people calculate and deal with Zheng Xunrui everywhere, Zheng Xunrui, as the governor of Caoyun, can he still look at the four big characters of Donglin Book House every day, how much endurance and perseverance is needed, and how much mind is needed.

At this moment, Wu Weiye suddenly had a new feeling, after all, he was a knowledgeable reader, the first place in the second class of the palace examination, and most of his thoughts over the years were in the aspect of studying knowledge, through reading a lot of history books, he had some different understandings of the game and struggle for power.

Zheng Xunrui is by no means the kind of person that Qian Shisheng and Hou Xun know, his ambition is unpredictable, people say that the prime minister has a good belly to support the boat, Zheng Xunrui's mind may be the sea, the whole tomorrow.

With such a state of mind, when entering the Donglin Book House, Wu Weiye saluted Zheng Xunrui.

"Your Excellency."

Zheng Xunrui's face was originally smiling, but when he saw Wu Weiye serving him so much, he hurriedly stepped forward and helped Wu Weiye.

"Lord Wu, I said a long time ago, you and I are the same year, there is no need to be so rigid about etiquette, although it is casual."

"This is what Xiaguan must do, these days, Xiaguan has seen a lot of places in Huaibei, there are too many feelings, a few words are difficult to say clearly, Xiaguan can only say, Huaibei and other places in Daming are different, if it is my Daming Fuzhou County, can be like Huaibei, there should not be a rogue, Houjin will never dare to covet it."

Zheng Xunrui looked at Wu Weiye and didn't speak for the time being, all along, he still felt a little different about Wu Weiye, when he was in Qinhuaihe. For the sake of Liu Ruyi's affairs, Wu Weiye's performance is completely different from Zhang Pu and others, including many contacts between him and Wu Weiye, it should be said that Wu Weiye's character is very good. Not blindly obedient, willing to think about problems, and not particularly obsessed with power.

After Wu Weiye sat down, he continued to speak.

"Xiaguan patrolled Huaibei this time, in accordance with the requirements of the holy decree. It is for the matter of Li Yan and the Red Lady of Shanyin County, the adults do not necessarily know the details, before the lower officials left, the adults in the court specially ordered, not only to investigate Li Yan's affairs, but also to understand other more matters in Huaibei, including Huaibei did not collect taxes in accordance with the requirements of the holy decree, Hongmen collected the protection fees of the merchants, etc., in fact, the lower officials also understood the meaning of this, if these investigations were reported to the above. A series of things will definitely follow. ”

"These officials in the world have thought about it seriously, decided to seek truth from facts, the adults will govern Huaibei in an orderly manner, it can be described as the paradise of the Ming Dynasty, if such a place also has to encounter the intervention of some adults, then what hope does the Ming have, the adults have heard about the discussion of the adults in the capital, there is a saying, that the adults are the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty, at that time the officials were not very convinced. In my opinion, Xia Guan is really a frog at the bottom of the well. ”

"Xiaguan is in the capital, and he has repeatedly fallen into battles and games, and he has seen too much. It is precisely these things that make the lower officials feel tired, as an official of the imperial court, they can't really do things, they can't work for the well-being of the people, and they are always fighting. For their own selfish interests, who cares about the life and death of the people, in fact, this rampant rogues, according to the views of the lower officials, is the responsibility of the imperial court, if it is not for the people to have no way to live, who is willing to rebel, if all parts of the Ming Dynasty are like Huaibei, the interests of the people are the most important, although it is impossible to take care of the people of every household, but as long as the people feel that the government is doing things for them, how can there be a rebellion. ”

"These days, Xiaguan thought a lot, for a lot of the previous actions ridiculous, can be regarded as naïve, into the imperial court for eight years, nothing has been done, but there is a feeling of helping to abuse, Xiaguan even thought of Donglin Academy, Fushe and Yingshe many matters, is it that the Donglin Party people flaunt a heart for the world, really do it, Xiaguan does not see, but is dedicated to their own interests, dedicated to seeking power, see many situations in Huaibei, Xiaguan believes, adults are dedicated to the people, The funny thing is that some people still want to make a fuss in this regard to impeach adults, I am afraid that they will come to Huaibei to see, and they are really embarrassed. ”……

Wu Weiye said it very thoroughly, it can be said that he opened his heart without any reservations, but he did not name who was in the court, but there was no need to name him in this regard, Zheng Xunrui naturally knew.

In the process of Wu Weiye's speech, Zheng Xunrui has always paid special attention to his expression, when his true feelings are revealed, his expression is sincere and dedicated, no one can fake in this regard, his judgment, Wu Weiye is really reflective and repentant.

As the saying goes, the nature of the country is easy to change and difficult to change, if you want a person's nature to completely change, the possibility is not very large, Wu Weiye's nature is free and easy, this aspect is somewhat similar to Li Yan, and it is this kind of free and easy nature of people, it is possible to doubt their own pursuit, and willing to accept new things, accept more advanced theories.

After Wu Weiye finished speaking, Zheng Xunrui did not fully affirm it.

"Lord Wu, have you ever thought about what the consequences will be if you go against the will of some adults in the court?"

Wu Weiye was stunned for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face.

"What my lord reminds me is that Xiaguan almost forgot this, think about so many seniors in Donglin Academy, for the sake of ideals and pursuits, they can throw away their lives, what else is there to worry about in Xiaguan."

When Wu Weiye said this, he obviously made up his mind.

Zheng Xunrui's statement is different, he needs to expose the shortcomings of the Donglin Party, the fatal shortcomings.

"Lord Wu, since you said so, then I have to be open and honest, when I was studying, Mr. Gu Xiancheng's aphorism of Donglin Academy: The sound of wind and rain and the sound of reading are in my ears, and I care about family affairs, national affairs, and everything in the world has also made me think, but I heard and witnessed it later, and found that the concept of Donglin Academy has not been truly implemented, and the fatal problem in its concept is that it does not pay attention to the interests of the people."

"For so many years, the Donglin Party has fought against the eunuch party, striving for their own interests, what they say in their mouths, what they actually do, are all aimed at power, they are all thinking about influencing and even controlling the emperor through their own ideas, they have really worked for the well-being of the people, in their opinion, after grasping power, it is also good to do things for the people."

"In the first year of Chongzhen, the emperor cleared the eunuch party and reused a large number of Donglin party members, but what did they do, collect the arrears of agricultural taxes over the years, regardless of the fact that various places suffered from famine, regardless of the reality that the people sold their children and daughters, and could not survive at all, the collection of agricultural taxes was taken as the standard for the examination of officials in various places, but on the other hand, the rich scholars and businessmen did not bear anything, and the Donglin party people instead demanded that the trade taxes be reduced or even abolished, saying that the wealth was hidden from the people, and what did the result lead to, The rogues flocked to the scene, and more and more people rebelled. ”

"Last year, the Donglin Party once again proposed to levy agricultural taxes in arrears, and as for the consequences, this is a well-known thing, so I don't need to say more."

"After I became the governor of Caoyun, I saw too many facts, the Donglin Party colluded with the scholars and merchants, in order to protect their own interests, the north suffered so many famines, the common people could not survive, and even people ate people, the scholars and merchants in the south, a large number of hoarding grain, taking advantage of the famine to sell at a high price, making huge profits, when the imperial court asked the southern scholars and merchants to rescue the north, it was these Donglin Party members, once again put forward the theory of hiding the wealth of the people, and did not allow the imperial court to mobilize the grain of the south to rescue the north."

"Look at those Donglin Party members in the court, those who follow me prosper and those who disobey me die, all the people with lofty ideals who they can't absorb, either take the way of suppression, or they are all kinds of calculations, where did they think of the great tomorrow."

"The mouth flaunts benevolence, righteousness and morality, but what he does is something that people and gods are angry about, this is the Donglin Party people I saw."

"I don't deny that there are honest people among the Donglin Party, but unfortunately the vast majority of Donglin Party members have lost their basic character of being a person, and what they see in their eyes is power and money." ……

Zheng Xunrui's words made Wu Weiye's face pale, some things he thought of, but he didn't think so deeply, this time Zheng Xunrui said it, it can be said that it was three points, revealing the faces of many Donglin Party members, so that their true nature was exposed, Wu Weiye couldn't refute it, because what Zheng Xunrui said was the truth.

"Lord Wu, you are a member of the Donglin Party, presumably the Donglin Party members in the court have high hopes for you, I will not force you to do anything, this is not my habit, but I can tell you one thing, I am dedicated to the great tomorrow, for the people of the whole world, all those forces that hinder the interests of the people, those forces that think about calculating others all day long, and unscrupulous forces for their own interests, I will completely eradicate them, no matter what position he is in, and no matter how prominent he once was."

"There is a good saying, good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded, it is not that the time has not yet come, the sins of heaven are forgivable, and you cannot live for your own sins."

In the last sentence, Zheng Xunrui said it very slowly, but it was categorical.

At this time, Wu Weiye was like sitting on pins and needles, although he knew that Zheng Xunrui's words were not aimed at him, but thinking about the things he had done in the past, the feeling of shame was particularly obvious, and he also understood better, don't think that Zheng Xunrui didn't worry about Zhang Pu and others, it was a sign of weakness, I am afraid that when Zheng Xunrui really did it, Zhang Pu and others couldn't resist it at all, and they didn't know how they died at that time.

"The words of the adults, the lower officials will keep in mind, no matter when and where, when the lower officials do anything, they will remember the teachings of the adults." (To be continued.) )
