However, the constant friction between the Donglin Party and Wei Zhongxian illustrates the necessity of its existence.

The eunuchs and factory guards, the so-called power leans towards the government and the opposition, but by taking advantage of the power of the emperor, Donglin's way is sanctimonious, but it hides the heart of disaster.

Who cares if the real people at the bottom are safe and sound in the crotch of those in power?

The problem of physical disability is a small matter, but whether or not you can survive is a big matter.

Day 3.

Secretly and privately greeted Wei Zhongxian, the Donglin Party of the previous eighteen generations finally stopped today, and the Dongchang Fanzi, who was originally invincible, dissipated overnight.

It's like everything is an empty dream, but everyone knows in their hearts that if they want to get to the root of all problems, they have to find someone to ask them to understand.

That's Chongzhen.

And Emperor Chongzhen has just ascended the throne, and the core of the court is still dominated by eunuchs.

And here I have to mention one person.

At the beginning of Chongzhen's accession to the throne, Huang Liji was an official who worshiped the elders, but as an auxiliary minister of the cabinet, he still had nothing to do with Wei Zhongxian.

Huang Liji originally wanted to rely on his connection with Wei Zhongxian to avoid the investigation, but he ran into Wei Zhongxian, who came to find out in person.

It is rumored that the two just glanced at each other, and Huang Liji was like seeing a ghost.

called the factory minister, and did not dare to stop the East Factory any more.

Fortunately, Huang Liji's official is also very tactful, and the corruption in the eunuch party is not as blatant as Donglin, and the situation of the eunuch civil officials is quite acceptable, and when the eunuchs in the palace have no queen, most of the silver is also mailed back to his hometown and left for his old age.

After Huang Liji was investigated, in fact, many Donglin parties have also realized that something is wrong, but more people are still lucky, and generally think that it may just be that there are some problems in the eunuch party or just pretending.

But I didn't think about it, the mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings.

After changing the master, it is no longer as easy to get along with as the previous apocalypse.

During this period, Zhu Youzhen also drew a copy of "History of the Late Ming Dynasty", and he originally wanted to read it in retreat, but the more he read it, the more frightened he became.

You must know that according to historical records, if it is correct, then even during the reign of the so-called carpenter emperor, there was no large-scale peasant uprising in the Ming Dynasty, and the people's livelihood can still be maintained.

Why did he rise up everywhere before he sat down when Emperor Chongzhen arrived?

The problem is still in the Donglin Party, the overboard case and the Red Pill case are still vivid, and the Donglin Party, which has risen since the Wanli period, has long been a dark anomaly.

I am afraid that partisanship will gradually turn into conflict.

Zhu Youzhen was deeply anxious about this, what kind of people are ordinary people? The common people in the late Ming Dynasty were the kindest people.

But as long as there is food to eat, a little peaceful life, and a piece of land to feed and clothe, the idea of rebellion will not arise.

But this Donglin, full of saints, made them unable to live.

Morning meeting.

After not seeing Emperor Chongzhen for a few days, the Donglin Party was already anxious, and they stood outside the palace gate early, waiting for the audience.

In general, except for extremely bad weather, most of the time the court meeting system was held in the open air, and there were already officials whispering in the square of the court meeting.

Nine times out of ten, the content discussed is inseparable from the changes in the East Factory in recent days.

"Lord Lu, I don't know why the people who have come to Beijing have been panicking these days, and even the excerpts that were reviewed by His Majesty on time in the past have not been heard from recently."

The words of an official of the Hanlin Academy attracted the echo of another person beside him.

"What this colleague said is extremely true, I don't know what Your Majesty means, why he hasn't gotten rid of this Wei Zhongxian."

"If Wei Gelding is not removed for a day, there will be no such brightness in this court for a day."

...

As soon as the sky was slightly bright, Zhu Youzhen got up early to wash.

The first early dynasty that crossed over was still very novel to Zhu Youzhen, and he was a little sleepy and hazy sitting on the dragon chariot.

But his thinking is extremely active, thanks to the meticulous study of the history of the Ming Dynasty for several days, Zhu Youzhen has long understood the state under the framework of the Ming civil official system at this moment.

It is not an empty phrase that the imperial power does not go to the countryside, even after the Wanli and Tianqi dynasties, the position of emperor is not only high-risk, but more aggrieved.

It's no wonder that Chongzhen made several edicts at the last moment, but it was useless.

But without Jinyiwei and Dongchang, the so-called emperor, the so-called imperial power, is just in this Forbidden City.

In order to break the situation, it is necessary to let the relationship between the monarch and the minister that was originally hidden in the corner be put on the surface to conflict, and this conflict must be controlled in a small area with a pair of hands to avoid too much impact.

So keep Wei Zhongxian, keep Dongchang and Jinyiwei.

It's so important at this point.

Zhu Youzhen above the court looked very solemn, but the only thing to be thankful for was the number of eunuchs.

Fortunately, it was possessed early, otherwise when these ministers and scholars became members of the Donglin Party, I am afraid that the restrictions would be even more violent.

But at this moment, the signs of Donglin's control of the court have already been revealed, and Zhu Youzhen, who was sitting on the dragon chair, had already seen several eyes with murderous intent hidden in his eyes from a distance, and that kind of hatred could be captured by himself, which was enough to see how exaggerated it was.

The lower Hanlin Courtyard is full of the so-called Donglin Party, the so-called Qingliu.

But everyone in power today probably wouldn't have thought that in just a few days, the emperor in front of him has already changed from the roots.

However, in order to move away from the biggest obstacle to the rise of the Donglin Party - the eunuch party.

This chaos of the party still has to go on, so a well-planned drama is about to be staged.

"Zhang Shu of Chendong Palace has a book to play!"

The chanting in the distance was not long after Zhang Shuyou walked into the court, and as soon as he entered, he felt several glances.

"Your Majesty! Minister Zhang Shuyou wants to risk his life today to impeach the eunuch Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch of ceremonies, Bingbi! ”

As soon as this remark came out, the whole house was shocked.

"The minister listed Wei Zhongxian's ten major sins! I ask Your Majesty to eliminate the harm for the people, and please kill this scourge, and make it clear. ”

Just when the eunuch party's face turned red and he was about to refute it after Zhang Shuyou finished speaking, more so-called gossip officials of the Donglin Party jumped out to echo Zhang Shuyou.

Zhu Youzhen, who was originally worried about how to make a list of these ministers and tortured some family wealth, never dreamed that the Donglin Party would no longer be able to hold it back.

A godsend.

Once today, will the day of pulling the list be far away?

However, he still had to pretend, and he saw Zhu Youzhen say: "You and other ministers know that the impeachment should not be above the court, and should not be noisy outside the main hall, but should first be reported to the Secretary of Justice, and the cabinet will inform me." ”

Wei Zhongxian fell very low at this time, which was sad to say, this powerful government and opposition were regarded as a thorn in the side of the Donglin Party, and the head of the eunuch party with a thorn in the flesh, and he had long since become a drooping old man, with white sideburns.

"Your Majesty, the General Administration Department has long been in collusion with the cabinet and the eunuch party, and the ministers are afraid that they will deceive the Holy Hearing, so they made this decision."

Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly, then shook his head and said lightly: "Presumably you are wrong to blame Wei Qing, okay, someone will put away their folds, and I will take a good look at them when I go back, and then discuss this matter." ”

After all, the main project today is to make money, and not to do unnecessary tugging with these guys here.

Hearing this, several Donglin Party members in the hall panicked... This.. How?

If there is no result, I am afraid that in a few days, I will not know whether it belongs to me or not, how dare I delay.

Therefore, he knelt on the ground with the intention of dying.

"Death to the court!"

"The same is true of the minister!"

Zhu Youzhen's face was solemn, but the tone of his voice was so calm.

"Someone! Send these people on the road! Perfect them, let the officials outside take a good look, what is a model! If all the people in the court are like this, if they dismiss the official earlier or kill Jin Luan, I will also send him a beautiful funeral. ”

Anyone can see that the emperor is really angry at this time.

As he spoke, he was already shouting.

In the palace, several factory guards quickly rushed in, although they were not allowed to carry knives in the palace, they were also fierce and abnormal.

Immediately, a few people were pressed, and on top of the Jinluan Palace, they crashed to death on the pillar, and a burst of blood splashed on the black gauze hat that he had not taken off before he died.

The room was speechless for a while.

See here.

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but be annoyed, the Donglin Party cherished feathers to the extreme.

He clearly knew that these people were just targets to be used in the Yanguan's belongings, and in the eyes of the Donglin Party, even if they died, they would not be valuable.

After decades of cold windows, once he was famous in the examination, but he ended up like this, Zhu Youzhen couldn't bear it but was helpless.

After all, in such a struggle, such sacrifices are meaningless but will not stop there.

In the eyes of the Donglin Party, the imperial power must not be offended, and it has long been empty words.

Only those who are controlled by them, and only those who listen to them, are good emperors.

But the history of later generations clearly writes what is the end of blindly abiding by the so-called morality of these hypocrites.

Zhu Youzhen glanced meaningfully at the ministers in the distance, didn't say a word, just turned around and left.

Wang Chengen hurriedly followed, and the emperor waved his sleeves and walked away angrily, which made Wang Chengen feel afraid, but in the eyes of more people, everything seemed to be taken for granted.

But in the end, it also means that this court meeting ended unhappily.

The eunuch party is still a force that cannot be shaken above the Ming Dynasty.

Let many eunuch officials who returned to their residences call the emperor immense.

I feel that it is still a good thing to follow Wei Zhongxian, at least in such a blatant party struggle, he can still win the heart of the emperor and lead the Donglin Party to return in defeat.

can be extremely encouraging.

This is also what Zhu Youzhen is willing to let the officials of the eunuch party feel, after all, as long as Wei Zhongxian does not die for a day, then the eunuch party is still controllable on the whole.

As long as Wei Zhongxian is still willing to be loyal to Zhu Youzhen.

Then the entire eunuch party is still obedient and easy to do, and now Zhu Youzhen is clear that he wants to use all the forces he can still use to break down the Donglin Party.

Let this battle between the party and the government come to an end as soon as possible.

As for Wei Zhongxian, who was originally lying on the floor of the high hall, after Zhu Youzhen walked out, he gently stroked his sleeves, under the eyes of the angry eyes of the Donglin party.

Leave slowly.

When leaving, I didn't forget to talk to several eunuch party members above the court, and ridiculed the Donglin party members a few words.
