If you only talk about Zhang Pu, I'm afraid everyone is not impressed.

"The Tombstone of Five" is famous, and Zhang Pu is the author of this article.

It's actually quite simple.

It's just a partisan fight.

Zhou Qiyuan (Donglin Party), the governor of Susong, impeached Li Shi (eunuch party), a weaving eunuch in Suzhou and Hangzhou, accusing Li Shi of tyrannical expropriation and cruelty to the people.

Therefore, offended Wei Zhongxian, Zhou Qiyuan was reduced to the people, but the eunuch party still had to take advantage of the victory to pursue.

Li Shi (Eunuch Party) then impeached Zhou Qiyuan (Donglin Party), accusing Zhou Qiyuan of disobeying the holy decree, reducing the number of robes without authorization, using robes and silver to mint fake money, manipulating the price of robes, and enriching his own pockets, resulting in heavy debts for the machine owners.

The impeachment of both sides is all true.

The corrupt officials of the Donglin Party and the corrupt officials of the Eunuch Party staged a good show of dog eat dog.

During this period, there were various details that implicated many officials on both sides, and Zhou Shunchang was one of the Donglin Party members who were implicated.

Because the eunuch party has deep grievances in the local people, when Zhou Shunchang was arrested, it caused a riot incident - it was not a big trouble, and it was not even a civil unrest.

Most of the onlookers came to see the excitement, belonging to the melon-eating masses, and the struggle between the eunuch party and the Donglin party was their business.

After the incident, five people were arrested and beheaded, except for one who was Zhou Shunchang's domestic slave, and the other four were nosy. It is said that these four people belong to gangsters, and they are purely made up by netizens, and they can't find the source of historical materials at all.

"The Tombstone of Five" has nothing to do with tax resistance.

When Zhang Pu wrote this article, he also secretly poked and poked at the sarcasm businessmen. It probably means that the five righteous people dared to stand up, but those gentry and businessmen shrank their eggs.

……

Suzhou, Taicang.

Zhang Pu received Liu Ruye's letter and threw it aside.

At this time, his mother is seriously ill, his wife is pregnant, and there are a lot of bad things in the resumption of the society, how can he be in the mood to go to the appointment to meet a famous prostitute?

A few days later, the servant reported: "Master, someone has sent another letter." ”

Zhang Pu opened the letter and saw that it was still Liu Ruyi's letter. The content of this time is very short, and it can be summed up in one sentence: "There are righteous people invited, please go to Loujiang to discuss matters." ”

Righteous man?

Zhang Pu immediately understood that Liu Ru was a famous prostitute who belonged to someone else's broker who invited him.

March.

Zhang Pu came to Loujiang Wharf for an appointment, and a maidservant girl stepped forward to greet him: "Mr. Ximing, please board the boat." ”

It was a passenger ship, quite large, and it was no problem to carry dozens of people.

Zhang Pu walked into the cabin and saw Liu Ru reading a book, and a young scholar drinking tea.

"Huang Ying, Lead Mountain, I've seen Mr. Ximing!" Xu Ying got up and gave up her hand.

As soon as Liu Ru stood up, he heard Zhang Pu say: "Huang Ying of Datong Society? ”

Xu Ying said with a smile: "A little name, it is a blessing to be cherished by Mr. ”

"Believe it or not, I'll report to the police to arrest you?" Zhang Pu sneered.

Xu Ying said with a smile: "Mr. can ban "Datong Ji", and naturally he can send troops to arrest the late students. No one knows, no one knows, Su Song Changhu Mansions are really Mr. 's world. ”

"Heart-wrenching words, scared me?" Zhang Pu didn't have a good face, "Your Excellency has asked to see you again and again, since you really have a meeting, if you have anything to say, just say it!" ”

Xu Ying sat down slowly: "Why did Mr. ban "Datong Collection"? ”

Zhang Pu also entered the cabin and sat down: "The government has confiscated anti-thief books, what is the matter with me and cloth?" ”

"Why should you be modest, sir." Xu Ying smiled.

Although Zhang Pu is not an official, his influence is very terrifying.

Far away in Beijing, he can control the examination papers, so that the evaluation criteria of the test papers are biased towards practical learning and people in the society. When Wen Tiren was the first assistant, in order to counteract Zhang Pu's influence, he could only use cheating to judge the test papers.

Near Jiangnan, Wen Tiren's younger brother wanted to join the Fusha, but was ruthlessly refused, so he wrote a slander against the Fushe. Zhang Pu gave an order, and actually used the power of the government to ban this book.

The "Datong" series of books is popular in Huaiyang, but it is banned in Susong Changhu.

"That's it?" Zhang Pu asked.

Xu Ying asked rhetorically: "Sir, have you seen "Datong Collection"? ”

Zhang Pu sneered: "Anti-thieves and arrogances, what is the benefit of looking at it." ”

"That is, I haven't read it," Xu Ying said, "but in my later life, I read the book of Mr., who adheres to Confucian orthodoxy, advocates active use of the world, abandons empty talk, and advocates practical learning." But no? ”

Zhang Pu said: "Yes. ”

Xu Ying also said: "Mr. advocates to Jun Zemin and put the people first. It is advocated that the virtuous should be eliminated from the evil, and the good should be eliminated from the bad. But no? ”

"Yes, yes." Zhang Pu said.

Xu Ying said: "Mr. advocates respect for the individual and advocates equality between men and women. But no? ”

"Yes, yes." Zhang Pu said.

Xu Ying continued: "Mr. advocates respecting the classics and revitalizing the ancient road, and at the same time keeping pace with the times. Mr. advocated categorical governance, strengthened the roots, and advocated the suppression of Buddhism and Taoism. But no? ”

"Yes, yes." Zhang Pu said.

Xu Ying said with a smile: "Mr. advocates that the text carries the Tao, living in today's world, and is the word of today." But no? ”

"Yes, yes." Zhang Pu said.

"Hahahaha!"

Xu Ying suddenly laughed: "These things are also advocated by that Zhao Tianwang in Jiangxi." ”

Zhang Pu frowned and said, "An anti-thief, what do you know?" ”

Xu Ying asked, "Do you know, what kind of background is Mr. Zhao in Jiangxi?" ”

"One talks about showmanship, the other talks about house slaves." Zhang Pu said.

Xu Ying explained: "Mr. Zhao was originally a son of a Confucian family in Hebei, and his family was ruined by natural disasters and famine. When he was begging, he raised people in Jiangxi as servants. At the age of fourteen, he put forward the theory of the position and refuted everyone in Hanzhu Academy. Cai Gong, the superintendent of Jiangxi, was surprised by his talent and wanted to accept him as a disciple, but was rejected by Mr. Zhao. Is such a person an ordinary thief? ”

Zhang Pu knows Cai Maode and also understands Cai Maode's knowledge.

Cai Maode, as a student envoy in Jiangxi, actually took the initiative to accept apprentices, and the other party was still a fourteen-year-old house slave. If this matter is true, then Jiangxi Zhao Thief can definitely be called a prodigy.

"I heard that Jiangxi forcibly divided the landlord's land, but is it true?" Zhang Pu asked.

Xu Ying explained in detail: "Jiangxi Tianzheng, based on paddy fields, each person can be divided into four acres of land. If the name is all barren mountainous land, each person can get twenty acres of land. This is the basic division of land, if you make great contributions, you can also get acres, based on paddy fields, each person can have up to 100 acres of land. ”

Zhang Pu asked: "That is to say, if it is assigned to my Zhang family." I can only keep four acres of paddy fields in my name, and if I have 100 acres of paddy fields, I still have to make meritorious contributions to get them? ”

"Yes," Xu Ying said with a smile, "only Ding Kou over the age of twelve, whether male or female, more than ten people, must be separated." ”

Zhang Pu said angrily: "Forcibly separating the family and dismantling the flesh and blood is in vain!" ”

Xu Ying asked rhetorically: "Is it really disrespectful?" I'm afraid that when the fields are divided into the Zhang family, many Zhang family members will have children, and they will have to clap their hands and applaud. Because of these concubines, not only can each person get four acres of land, but also the Zhang family's property. Mr. is also a concubine, if it weren't for the genius of Tianzhong, I'm afraid that life at this time will not be easy. ”

Zhang Pu was silent.

He is a maidservant girl, and he has suffered from white eyes since he was a child, and he was nicknamed "Collapsed Pu Yan'er" by a domestic slave (born to a slut, no interest).

The house slaves all bullied him!

It was also because of this situation that Zhang Pu studied hard, and finally passed the Jinshi examination and became the Qianli horse of the Zhang family.

Yes, if I hadn't been admitted to the fame, I am afraid that I would be living a miserable life now, and I can't wait for Zhao Thief to come over and help divide the family property.

Zhang Pu was shocked, he could imagine that kind of scene: Zhao thief led troops to kill Taicang, and countless Zhang family's concubines and side relatives cheered to welcome the thief, and the Zhang family's industry was divided up lively.

"Why is it forcibly divided into families and fields, it is very clearly written in the "Datong Collection", and Mr. can read it himself."

Xu Ying slapped suddenly, and a swordsman walked out with a set of "Datong" books.

Zhang Pu took it and didn't read it.

Xu Ying asked: "Mr. knows the situation in the world very well, I'm afraid I don't need to repeat it later." At most, in two or three years, the Jiangxi soldiers will be able to capture this place, does Mr. think so? ”

Zhang Pu was difficult to answer.

"Please make plans as soon as possible," Xu Ying said with a smile, "I don't want anything else, I just ask Mr. not to ban the "Datong Collection", and not to obstruct the development of members of the Datong Society in Jiangnan." If you anger Mr. Zhao, after the summer harvest this year, you will directly send troops to attack Nanjing! ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Pu was taken aback.

It is now the spring of the twelfth year of Chongzhen, and the northern provinces are in a mess. If Zhao Han sent troops to attack Nanjing, the imperial court would not be able to deploy troops at all, and Nanjing would be captured with a high probability.

If Nanjing is lost, Zhang Pu's hometown will also be gone.

Zhang Pu glanced at the swordsman who was delivering the book: "This is a person from the Restoration Society?" ”

"Now I am a member of Datong." Xu Ying said with a smile.

Jiangnan and Lianghuai Prefectures, most of the hot-blooded scholars have joined the Restoration Society.

If Xu Ying wants to develop, she must dig into the corner of the Restoration Society.

Small merchants, small landlords, and scholars from homesteaders made up a high proportion of the Fusha Society, and they could be easily poached. Because the Datong Society is more advanced and operational than the Restoration Society, it can bring more benefits to these low-level scholars!

Zhang Pu sighed: "Let me finish reading these books." ”

Xu Ying smiled: "Sir, please." However, as soon as possible, I have decided to develop in Susong Changhu, and I don't want to have another conflict with the people in the Fushe Society. ”

There was a conflict in Yangzhou, where Datong members were beaten by members of the Restoration Society.

At that time, he was defeated very badly, so Xu Ying was determined to practice and asked the Jiangxi merchants to build an iron sword. Core members, one for each person, regular training every month, and also invited a swordsman as a teacher.

After only training for more than a month, he defeated all the invincible opponents of the scholars, and since then he has embarked on the road of convincing people with reason.

Zhang Pu returned home, and it took half a month to finally finish reading the "Datong" series, and then the whole person was stupid.

Zhao Han's theory is very close to the theory of the Restoration Society.

However, Zhao Han was more radical than Fushe. Zhao Han was a revolutionary, and Fushe was a reformist, but the general direction was about the same.

Protecting businessmen, equality between men and women, and advocating pragmatism, including the introduction of Western learning, are all things advocated by the Fushe.

The core difference between the two sides is the separation of families and fields.

But sooner or later, Zhao Han will come to Jiangnan, and no matter how reluctant he is then, he will have to succumb to the sword.

Moreover, it turns out that the road of reform from top to bottom is no longer possible.

In the first few years of the Restoration Society, the goal was to overthrow the treacherous minister Wen Tiren, and then control the court to carry out reforms. But after Wen Tiren stepped down, politics became even more chaotic, and the people who restored the society found that their biggest enemy was actually ...... Emperor Chongzhen.

Therefore, some scholars in the Restoration Society began to put forward the idea of "light king".

Later, it even developed a theory similar to that of a constitutional monarchy, and the Restoration Society began to move towards a political party. The organizational structure and theoretical slogans of the Restoration Society far surpassed the prototype of the British political party!

Zhang Pu held "Datong Collection" in his hand, struggled for a long time, and suddenly had an idea.

Since Chongzhen can't be supported and can't carry out court reform, why can't the Restoration Society fall to Zhao Han? Join the regime in Jiangxi, and then gradually control the court, and then govern the country according to your own ideas when the time comes!
