Chongzhen lowered his head and pondered for a while, feeling that what Zhang Yun said also made some sense.

Besides, as an emperor!

When did Chongzhen put the lives of ordinary people on his mind?

If he really was a benevolent monarch, he wouldn't have been on the last edict left before the coal mountain was hanged...... I never think that the imperial court should raise three rings, it should not be!

Although Chongzhen figured it out, he just wanted him to admit that it was naturally impossible for him to say that he didn't care about the lives of the people.

After all, people need faces, and trees need bark!

Therefore, the conversation between the two fell silent again, and Chongzhen was embarrassed to say anything.

As for Zhang Yun, he silently organized the language in his heart to see what words to use to impress Chongzhen.

In the end, the Donglin Party, a friend party linked by interests, was completely eliminated from the Ming Dynasty......

After a long time, Zhang Yun spoke, "Your Majesty, Poor Dao has already told you a lot about the issue of the Donglin Party, here, Poor Dao doesn't want to say anything more, I just want to ask, Your Majesty, do you know that Gu Xiancheng, why did he create the Donglin Party?" ”

Chongzhen was very interested in Zhang Yun's words, and hurriedly asked, "Why?" ”

Seeing that Chongzhen was finally interested, Zhang Yun smiled a little inexplicably: "Poor Dao said it bluntly, Your Majesty, don't be angry!" ”

"The Ming court lasted for more than 200 years, and during the reign of Emperor Wanli, in fact, the strength of civil officials has reached a certain peak, and to a certain extent, it can already check and balance the imperial power, that is to say, in some aspects, let Your Majesty bow your head, such as the scene in the Qianqing Palace just now, during the period of His Majesty Emperor Taizu, those civil officials would never dare to do this."

When Zhang Yun said this, he found that Chongzhen's face had sunk, but Zhang Yun ignored it and continued.

"But even so, Gu Xiancheng, he was still not satisfied, so he returned to his hometown after being dismissed by Emperor Wanli, and immediately began to form a party, what is he going to do when he forms a party?"

"Poor Dao, use your own words to explain his purpose to Your Majesty."

"Because this is how the poor road is understood, of course, in fact it should be almost ......"

"Gu Xiancheng. After he returned to his hometown, because he had no official position, he was resentful, and he deeply felt that the civilian-official group could not control the Ming court, which was not a good thing for the Ming court! ”

In his heart, he always believed that national affairs should be handled by civil officials, emperor! As long as you sit in the palace, don't do anything else, you are a good emperor, Emperor Wuzong before, just a few times out of the palace, to understand the people's situation, the civil official group is very nervous, I am afraid that the emperor will cheer up, there are a few ancestors-like figures, affecting their control of the imperial court......"

"It's just Gu Xiancheng, but he was dismissed by Emperor Wanli, so that he can't continue to fight with the imperial power in the court, what should I do? So in desperation, he found another way and came up with a good way to interfere with the imperial power, judging from the later history, his idea is correct, at least Your Majesty, you have almost been brainwashed by him! ”

So what exactly did he come up with this solution? In fact, it is not a great means, but the right to grasp public opinion! ”

"But it's not enough to have the right of public opinion, he also came up with a set of moral weapons, because if you want to fight against the imperial power that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, then only the moral weapon of Confucianism is the best to use, and it is also the most convenient means to use, Gu Xiancheng formed Donglin, in order to use this set of moral weapons that have been ignored for too long, to reorganize a set of standards, a set of standards that are higher than, at least independent of the imperial power."

"This is the essence of the Donglin Party, to put it bluntly, it is to master the moral weapon and the right of public opinion, and portray themselves as the image of a righteous man and a gentleman, and then they can attack the emperor unscrupulously!"

"It's because they are all upright men and gentlemen among the people, so anyone who opposes them, including the emperor, will naturally become the embodiment of evil."

"In this way, except for His Majesty Emperor Taizu, such a ruthless person, anyone in this world, including Your Majesty, as long as you don't want to tear your face with them, you will inevitably be swayed by them......"

"Therefore, Your Majesty, don't take chances, fight with them, that is, seek skin with the tiger, Your Majesty, you can't fight them at all, because when you just started fighting with them, you have already lost!"

"After all, they are all upright people and gentlemen, and your majesty, who has different ideas from them, will naturally become an evil emperor."

"The only way to deal with this kind of literati is to physically eliminate them, but at this point, Your Majesty, you obviously don't want to do it, because you also want to be face-saving!"

Zhang Yun smiled sarcastically when he said this, and then continued: "Poor Dao will leave first, Your Majesty, you can stay here, think about it, if you figure it out, let Wang Chengen inform Poor Dao." ”

"But Poor Dao wants to tell Your Majesty that there is a God-given opportunity in front of you, that is, to completely put the charge of rebellion on the head of the Donglin Party, then they can be easily solved, anyway, they have no soldiers and horses in hand. Xiucai's rebellion has not been successful for ten years, Your Majesty, think about it! ”

"Wait a minute, don't be busy walking."

Chongzhen was furious by Zhang Yun's words, but thinking about every sentence Zhang Yun said, especially the sentences describing the essence of the Donglin Party, it can be said that it hit the nail on the head and went straight to the point.

Therefore, Chongzhen could only endure the unhappiness in his heart and open his mouth to keep Zhang Yun.

And Zhang Yun, who had already turned around, also turned around and looked at Chongzhen with a smile after hearing Chongzhen's retention.

Maybe it was stimulated by the smile on Zhang Yun's face.

Chongzhen's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of firmness, and he said categorically: "I want to eradicate the Donglin Party now, and I also ask the Taoist to teach me how to do it?" ”

Zhang Yun smiled secretly in his heart, it seems that after he told Chongzhen about Gu Xiancheng's original intention to establish the Donglin Party just now, Chongzhen couldn't sit still!

After all, as an emperor, Chongzhen should hate Gu Xiancheng's proposition very much from the bottom of his heart, who would like it, sharpen his head, and want to compete for power with himself?

Loss, I told Chongzhen, the birdman, so many bad things about the Donglin Party before, and even said that all the Donglin Party members were so rich, and the poor and frightened Chongzhen never made up his mind to deal with the Donglin Party.

But once it is said that the Donglin Party has been involved in the imperial power in the past few decades, intentionally or unintentionally, Chongzhen can no longer sit still!

It's funny in his heart, but Zhang Yun hasn't forgotten what he's doing, so after his thoughts flew for a while, he quickly gathered his divergent thoughts, put them into Chongzhen's ear, and told him the next plans one by one......
