Chapter 476: The Four Major Parties Fight Wang Xuan

The news was transmitted directly from the local area to the capital, and this action against Wang Xuan was led by the Chu Party, with the participation of the Zhejiang Party and the Donglin Party.

I don't know how long it has been, these people have not gathered so neatly because of a problem, even in the face of the invasion of the steppe people, even in the face of the Jurchen offense, these people have not been so neat and pay so much attention.

At least, in the eyes of the four major parties, Wang Xuan's threat to them is far greater than that of the steppe people and the Jurchens, or until now, no one thinks that the Jurchens can win the world, all because there are too few Jurchens, in fact, when Wu Sangui surrendered and let the Qing army enter the customs, the regent Dorgon, the actual ruler of the 'My Great Qing', had the intention of taking a handful and leaving, that is, they also felt that with the hundreds of thousands of Jurchen population, it was simply impossible to rule the Han people with a population of nearly 100 million.

In the eyes of the magnates of the entire Ming Dynasty, the Jurchens are the disease of ringworm, even if the Ming Dynasty falls, there will be a new emperor rising, it may be anyone, it is possible for the Mongols to rise again, after all, the five Hu chaos began, and the grassland has occupied the Central Plains more than once, but it will definitely not be the Jurchen with the smallest population.

Therefore, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, these powerful families had more experience on top of infighting.

The struggle between the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang and the Donglin Party is a struggle of interests, and it does not involve the issue of survival, nor is it to the point of not dying, and if they fail, it is nothing more than resigning and going home, but now, Wang Xuan gives them the feeling that once Wang Xuan's power expands, it is likely to slaughter them.

In the hearts of some people, this is no longer possible, but sure, after all, Wang Xuan has done this in Fujian and Guangdong, this is the same as women's clothing, there are only zero and countless times, since he has slaughtered, there will inevitably be five, six or seven times, and if they don't prepare early and strangle Wang Xuan, then their family will become one of those five, six or seven.

The more people from the family, the more they know that small and medium-sized families don't matter, and how serious the harm of big families is.

The four major parties have been fighting for more than 20 years, and they have deep grievances with each other, but this meeting included Gao Panlong, Zhao Nanxing, and Yang Lian, who represent the "Donglin Party"; Fang Congzhe, the chief assistant of the cabinet representing the "Zhejiang Party"; Shen Yiyi and Yao Zongwen in the matter; Ying Zhen and Wu Liangsi, who represent the "Chu Party"; Qi Shijiao and Zhou Yongchun, who represent the "Qi Party," and Tang Binyin, who represents the "Xuan Party."

"Mr. Jingyi, I haven't seen you for many days, but your body is still healthy?" Guan Yingzhen stood in front of the door, looked at Gao Panlong who got down from the sedan chair, and greeted with a smile.

Gao Panlong, a native of Wuxi, Jiangsu, known as "Mr. Jingyi", the leader of the Donglin Party, one of the "Eight Gentlemen of Donglin", the author of 12 volumes of "Gaozi's Testament". (This is something that anyone would dare to call a son...... )

"Thank you Mr. Yanggu for your concern, I wanted to live in the old age, but the sky does not fulfill people's wishes, there are always treacherous villains who mess with the country, and I dare not relax under the hope of all the people." Gao Panlong looked compassionate, shook his head and sighed slightly.

Guan Yingzhen's pupils shrank slightly, and he scolded secretly in his heart, everyone was invited to come today because of Wang Xuan's problem, but this treacherous villain is not just talking about Wang Xuan, thinking about it, the three parties of 'Qi, Chu and Zhejiang', including him, have all been classified as traitors.

"With the crown, you must bear its weight, Mr. Jingyi has to take care of his body." seemed to be concerned, but the meaning of the words was to curse the other party for early death, and the smile on Gao Panlong's face froze.

After a verbal exchange, the two were evenly matched.

"Mr. Jingyi, please." Guan Yingzhen made a gesture of please.

"Mr. Yanggu is polite, together." Gao Panlong said politely with a gentle smile.

The two took a step almost at the same time, their steps were huge, and they walked in side by side, at the same time, their eyes met, one secretly scolded the other for being treacherous, and the other secretly scolded the other for hypocrisy.

It didn't take long for people to arrive one after another, divided into four waves, and sat together, but the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang formed a faint semi-encirclement and faced the Donglin party.

At present, the three parties are slightly more powerful, and the Donglin Party is in a state of suppression.

"Do you know the information of the kid surnamed Wang?"

"I'm not very clear, please tell me about it." Gao Panlong sat there for a long time, facing the eight people opposite, without the slightest feeling of being inferior, as if he was listening to the report of his subordinates.

Guan Yingzhen smiled slightly, picked up a stack of paper and handed it to the waiter behind him, "Since the Donglin people are backward in intelligence, then you can take a look." ”

Everyone is vying for the position of the DPRK and the interests of the family, and as the leader of one side, he cannot lose his momentum in any of them.

Gao Panlong didn't mind, and after taking it, he quickly looked at it, this information was different from the recital to the emperor, it was written simply and clearly, how many families Wang Xuan had killed, how many cronies he had, the general situation of the industry, valuation and profits, how many troops Fujian has, how well equipped it is, and the current situation in Guangdong.

After reading it, Gao Panlong's brows furrowed slightly, the information was very detailed, more detailed than the Donglin Party's collection, it can be seen that the other party worked hard, handed the paper to Yang Lian beside him, and after the other two finished reading, Gao Panlong stared at the eight people opposite and said, "What are your plans?" ”

"This person can't be kept."

"It's a pity, if only he could endure it for a few more years." The first assistant Fang Congzhe said.

The Zhejiang Party belongs to the newly rising power, which is different from other parties, the Chu Party, all of which are large landlords, have the most food, which is their biggest weapon to show their influence, and it is also the most stable and change-hating group in the world.

The Donglin Party, dominated by emerging merchants, controlled most of the country's maritime trade and trade on the canal, and most of the profiteering industries such as silk, porcelain, and tea were in their hands, including the country's largest salt merchants, who were the richest and most influential people in the world.

The Zhejiang Party, which is also relatively commercially developed, has been suppressed by the Donglin Party, and the Qi Party is similar, controlling the trade in the middle section of the North-South Canal, which has a serious conflict of interest with the Donglin Party forces.

The Donglin Party has the greatest influence, but it is surrounded by three parties in the middle, so the four parties are in constant conflict.

"That's not good, judging by his style of acting, he is too domineering, too murderous, unpopular with the people, and he is not a benevolent person, this kind of person can only be a demon in troubled times, and the situation of killing wolves is definitely not an ideal candidate." The official family master refuted Fang Congzhe without hesitation.

Although the three parties jointly dealt with the Donglin Party, they could walk on the same path in everything without a watch.

"How about transferring him to Beijing? As long as he comes in, then he can't live or die by himself. If Wang Xuan really has the ability to expand over there, at least he must kill the other three parties first, in that way, Wang Xuan will occupy half of the world and occupy eighty percent of the world's wealth.

Before waiting for the Donglin Party to answer, the first assistant party Congzhe said: "There is not much hope, as long as he is not stupid, he will not enter Beijing, but it does not prevent him from trying, anyway, it is an order, it has become the best, and there is no loss if it is not successful." ”

"No matter what, we can't let his power grow, and when the time comes, none of us will be able to stand it!"

This is true, Wang Xuan will definitely clean up the big landlords in Huguang, the people take food as the sky, and the grain cannot be controlled by a small number of people, even if the territory expands in the future, food is no longer a scarce commodity, but these big landlords in Huguang can still set off a small range of price shocks if they are united.

The Donglin Party was extremely disgusted with the tax law implemented by Wang Xuan, whether it was the salt tax, the mining tax, or the increased commercial tax and the Haiguang tax, which was tantamount to cutting their meat, and it was digging meat in large pieces all year round, which they absolutely did not allow.

The Zhejiang Party is also on the same side, but the Qi Party is not concerned.

"Then transfer troops and directly destroy Fujian and Guangdong as soon as possible." Qi Shijiao continued to come up with bad ideas at will.

The other three parties immediately fell silent, all thinking about the pros and cons, a sentence of simple troop transfer, but where did the soldiers come from? How much does it cost? Will it have any bad impact on your own territory? One by one, we must think clearly.

"Where do the soldiers come from? Don't mention the guards. The first assistant shook his head and said.

"It's nothing more than the trilateral and Guanning armies, but they also have to guard against the grassland people and the Jurchens over there." After Zhao Nanxing finished speaking, Yang Lian added: "Not only that, but the crossing of the army, especially the unruly reckless men of the border army, tsk......t"

For a while, everyone didn't have any good way, Fujian and Guangdong, are all mountainous places, several passes are easy to defend and difficult to attack, once the war lasts too long, the garrison army can completely huo Huo Huo nearby.

No one wants to bear this kind of loss for no reason, Qi Shijiao secretly pouted from the sidelines, afraid of wolves in the front and tigers in the back, this matter will definitely not be done.

"Ahem." Guan Yingzhen coughed lightly, the Donglin Party was not active, the Zhejiang Party had an ambiguous attitude, and the Qi Party hung high.

Damn, he scolded in his heart, this matter was raised by him, if it finally fell into a stalemate, his face would not look good, besides, Wang Xuan was the greatest threat to them, in their hearts, if Wang Xuan wanted to go further, after all, if he wanted to occupy Huguang, then he would not be short of soldiers and food, and geographically, occupy the upper reaches and go down the river, Nanzhili and Zhejiang would inevitably be easily taken.

Strategically, Huguang's geographical location is much larger than that of the other two places, and as the Chu Party people who bear the brunt of it, they are most worried in their hearts.

"This person must not be left to his own devices." Seeing that everyone nodded in agreement, Guan Yingzhen could only retreat, "First block the near passage between Fujian and Guangdong, and resolutely not give him room for expansion, in addition, he has a reason to act against Guangdong under the pretext of Annan's invasion this time, and we can also start in this regard, and give him a salary from the bottom of the kettle." ”

This sentence arouses everyone's interest, and if it can benefit without cost, everyone does not mind reaching out.

"Each family sent people to Guangxi, from the health center to the prefects of various prefectures, mobilized, first worked together to drive out the Annan people, and then blocked the passage of Guangdong, if there are only Fujian and Guangdong, they can stop their development, and then take their time later."

The other three parties glanced at each other and nodded at the same time, it would be good to start with Guangxi first, it would not cost much, in the name of the imperial court, even if it was broken, it would have nothing to do with them.
