Xu Wenchang's words actually regarded Yan Hong as an upside potential stock independent of Yan Fu. Hu Zongxian listened and nodded silently. Now he really lacks a backer in the court. Zhao Wenhua, the only barely counted backer, has been finished again, and I heard that he was still forced to death by Yan Song and ordered Yan Hong.

If you don't find a new helper quickly, no matter how good you do, you won't be able to stay in this position. In fact, the better he does, the more people want to jump out and pick peaches, and Zhe and Nao are too rich. If there is a frequent outbreak of Japanese rebellion, naturally no one will be willing to come, but when the Japanese invaders temporarily subside, everyone will definitely break their heads. There is no one in the court, and this position cannot be kept, maybe in order to break himself, he will have to let himself suffer from prison in vain. In this case, it is also the only choice to join forces with Yan Hong, a comrade-in-arms who opened the sea to recruit An.

Xu Wenchang said again: "The previous large-scale invasion of the Japanese invaders, in case our army is defeated, the heavenly family will be furious, and Wang Zhi is afraid that his life will not be guaranteed." Now that our army has won a complete victory, the so-called civil and military preparations complement each other, and the strategy of recruiting security will increase the chances of winning by three points. This truth is understood by everyone. I went to Tan Zili's side just now, and according to him, since Dong Weng won a big victory in Ningbo, some people in this city of Hangzhou can't sit still. On Wang Bengu's side, many people came to the door to say that he would kill Wang Zhi without waiting for the holy decree, and some people did not hesitate to take risks and conspire to assassinate. It's just that these people not only mislooked at Wang Bengu's personality, but also underestimated Tan Zili's ability, and wanted to make a ghost under his eyelids, this group of people didn't have this ability! ”

It turned out that these wealthy businessmen heard that Hu Zongxian had defeated the Japanese Invaders, and they were also worried that they would win the victory, so they came back to rescue Wang Zhi. Although Hu Zongxian attached to the signature. Please cut it on the book. But the wealthy businessmen still did not believe his position. Moreover, the DPRK and China have not been able to nail the documents for a long time. The news from the capital was that the Son of Heaven issued a holy decree ordering Wang Zhi to be strictly guarded and not allowed to escape. It seems that the emperor hesitated and wanted to take a look at the situation in the southeast. From this point of view, now that the southeast has won a big victory, the emperor has face on the one hand. On the one hand, he has to make money and pay rewards, and it is quite difficult to say whether this Wang Zhi will definitely cut off his head.

Therefore, they had to find Wang Bengu again, thinking that this fool was simple-minded and should be easy to deceive, so he was tempted, cut first and then played, and hacked Wang Zhi to death, and the matter of opening the sea could no longer be mentioned. But they really didn't recognize Wang Bengu's personality and stand out from the Ming imperial examination system. How many of those who have become Jinshi and even Yushi are real idiots?

Wang Bengu and Lin Yangqian are not the same. The latter is bent on fame and hope, and is full of dissatisfaction with the imperial court, and wants to prove that he is right through various brushes of existence. But Wang Bengu doesn't have such a big mood for the court, he wants fame and official position, especially he won't casually do those issues that are not regulated by the court. If he competes with Hu Zongxian and finally asks for Wang Zhi to be killed, he can compare the reputation of Dong Xuan of the Eastern Han Dynasty with a strong order, and the people who look at Hu Zongxian unpleasantly in the court and the backers of wealthy businessmen will also help him, and he will not only be quite beneficial in his career in the future, but also famous in history.

However, in the case of having already played the emperor, regardless of the emperor's strict will, he killed Wang Zhi without authorization, which is another problem. The power of the patrol according to the imperial history is indeed very large, and the small things are decided and the big things are played, and the eight mansions in the folk romance are patrolled, and the prototypes of the characters such as the first cut and then the play, which is the patrol. But if you openly disobey the holy decree and kill people without authorization, you will even lose the chance to save yourself. At this point, no matter how high his reputation is, he can only retire to Linquan, give lectures, teach his disciples, and scold the court if he has something to do, but don't expect to make an inch of progress in his career for the rest of his life.

Therefore, he rejected all the suggestions put forward by the wealthy businessmen and did not consider them at all. When the wealthy businessmen saw that this guy was stinky and hard, and dared not to give Hu Zongxian face, they thought that they were allies sent by God, and they did not hesitate to make friends at any cost, but today they realized that they were pig teammates. The advantages he was valued by these people at the beginning have now become disgusting with himself, and when this person turned around and became the opposite, the wealthy businessmen found that they really had no temper when they took this kind of stinky and hard master who was an official and did not want to die.

So those wealthy businessmen who couldn't wait for Wang Zhi to die turned their heads and thought of using assassination to let Wang Zhi die an unnatural death. But Wang Bengu himself was in prison, which caused great difficulties for the assassination. And after Hu Zongxian agreed to sign a holy decree to behead Wang Zhi last time, the relationship between Wang Bengu and the governor's yamen was greatly eased, and Tan Lun took the opportunity to put his hand in prison. At present, in addition to the guards and the people, there are also a large number of standard battalion soldiers, and the two sides cooperate with each other, so that the prison is operated like an iron wall, and it is impossible to reach out at all. Tan Lun didn't know how many murder plans Lu Dao had in his head, the ideas that the wealthy businessmen had come up with, he had thought of them all, and the ideas that the wealthy businessmen couldn't think of, he also thought of them. With such people in charge of security, there is no hope of assassination.

In this case, there is only one way to end Wang Zhi's life in advance, and that is to make a desperate bet and directly send troops to storm the prison. However, the wealthy businessmen had nothing to do when they were full, so they organized troops to storm the prison? Their original purpose was to kill Wang Zhi and maintain the sea ban in order to continue to make a fortune, but they had no intention of being at odds with the Ming Dynasty. The so-called bird flies and has a shadow, how can such a big movement be possible without leaving a head and tail afterwards? And once someone finds out the clues, what awaits them at that time is to raid their homes and destroy their homes, is this another crime? Besides, this kind of thing must not be done by one family, and several companies join forces, will the ghost know if the accomplices of the Dao Dao will turn around and sell themselves?

It's okay to organize a show to bring the people to make trouble, but after Yan Hong broke the boot formation last time, the morale of the show talents was greatly low, and it was not easy to incite them. Besides, now that Hu Zongxian has defeated Wang Zhi, the momentum is in full swing, and a few showmen are making trouble, which may not have a great effect.

Hu Zongxian heard that the wealthy businessmen were so upside down, although he was unexpected, he couldn't help but be indignant. But he couldn't make a show. Among these wealthy businessmen, many of them are local famous families, first-class local heroes, I don't know how many scholars, court officials, and even cabinet ministers have been produced in the family, and there are many protégés and former officials all over the world, and there are many children who are officials in the court. When the magistrate takes office, the first thing he does is to go to these families to deliver posts to visit, and with the help of these families, this official can sit down, otherwise he will move his nest as soon as possible.

And this Jiangnan is not the same as Shandong, like the four major families in Shandong, they were suppressed by Wang Xuan and Liu Cai, and the roots of the Jiangnan family are much harder. In the Ming Dynasty, there were many civil servants in the south and few in the north, and even the examination had to be divided into the north and south. And on the ground in the south of the Yangtze River, there are several families with the greatest power, and the scholars help each other and are each other's inside and outside.

Shaoxing Mansion from the Hongwu year to the present, there are nearly 500 Jinshi, most of them are from the family, the children of the famous families in Vietnam, the officials who enter the dynasty are all over the three provinces of Beijing, from the official of the Taoist language to the six officials, each other is the Austrian aid, the power is huge, the famous ministers of the Chenghua year, Xie Qian, Wang Hua, are all born in the family of Yuezhong, Wang Ji, Xu Ai, Qian Dehong, Zhu Jie and other disciples of Wang Yangming, but also the world's first-class figures. Liu Bowen, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, is a native of Qingtian Township, Chuzhou, and is still a famous family in Zhejiang Province; Sanfu Lu Tai's clan, also in Zhejiang, are rich and noble, poetry and heirlooms, killed people, only need to leave a slave to bear the guilt, you can sit back and relax.

These businessmen have backers behind them, often high-ranking officials and eunuchs in the capital, and relying on the connections accumulated by their own families for many years, it is the mansion of the court and the middle of the court, and they are allowed to come and go, and their energy should not be underestimated. They can't wipe out the Japanese invaders, let alone make a little better of the southeast meridian, but if they offend them and are retaliated with all their might, then it is very likely to destroy the political situation. Although Hu Zongxian had already grasped some evidence of the troublemaking behind these wealthy businessmen, he did not dare to deal with it, for fear that he would have a grudge against the clans of these wealthy businessmen, and he would be very bad at that time.

Xu Wenchang knew Hu Zongxian's thoughts, and said: "Dong Weng has scruples, and students also know that this matter is easier to handle." Just wait until Yan Hong comes, and leave this matter to him, and when the time comes, an upstart will come to the family to see whose means are clever. Regardless of victory or defeat, it will not hurt Dong Weng. ”

Hu Zongxian smiled slightly, and asked again: "What is the situation in Yangzhou?" Don't let the Li brothers escape, it will be difficult to explain when the time comes. ”

Xu Wenchang said: "Don't worry, Dong Weng, I don't know what kind of illness Li Wenzao has committed, or what bullshit he has listened to, the person who has always been shrewd is actually like that stupid pig." When this big event happened, he didn't think about it, but hid in Yangzhou, isn't this self-defeating? Now inside and outside Yangzhou City, our people have been arranged, the third prince is personally in charge, and there is a capable captain in the Jinyi Guard, to ensure that there is no mistake. The only thing I'm worried about now is Yu Dayou's side, in this battle, Min Yong suffered a lot of losses and little success, I'm afraid he has some resentment in his heart. ”

Hu Zongxian sneered: "What can he do if he has grievances? What kind of single ship is playing in battle, but it is majestic, if I damage the treasure ship of Qincha, what compensation will I get? If he hadn't discovered it early, he would have taken his men and horses to Zhoushan to wipe out Wang Zhi's direct subordinates. Can this old puppet put something else in his mind besides fighting? If it weren't for his small contributions, I would have dismissed him from his post and investigated him! There is no need to talk about him. Step aside, sir. ”

Xu Wenchang knew that Hu Zongxian and Yu Dayou had always had a lot of grievances. And Yu Dayou advocated a severe crackdown on the Japanese invaders, and was quite dissatisfied with Hu Zongxian's appeasement strategy, but he also put this disapproving attitude on the table, which made Hu Zongxian even more dissatisfied. At the beginning, because the Japanese soldiers pressed the border, when employing people, they had to rely on Yu Dayou a lot, so Hu Zongxian had to talk about some scruples. Now that the enemy is gone, generals like Yu Dayou are no longer so important. In the battle of Ningbo, Yu Dayou led the sailors to storm the Japanese ships, cut off Chen Dong and Ye Ma's back road, a bloody battle, which was a key step to victory, but Hu Zongxian counted the merit by the number of beheadings, and took Xu Hai's participation in the war as the denominator, which made Yu Dayou quite dissatisfied, afraid that he would suffer in the future.
