In the Dongchang conference hall, Wang Chengen and Wei Zhongxian have been sitting here all night.

There was no result in the case, and no one dared to go back to the house first.

After all, what the emperor said is very clear, and he will hear the news tomorrow morning, and it has to be good news.

Doesn't that make it clear that this thing is tonight's work, if it can't be broken...

"Your Excellency. The Dongchang factory guards have arrested six suspects in the Fulai Inn in the south of the city, five of whom have confessed, and the last person is being interrogated. ”

Wang Chengen stood up abruptly and said, "Did you ask something?" ”

"Your Excellency... According to the five people, they were all students studying in the capital, but later it was said that they were all students of Donglin Academy. They were all bewitched by others, and they kept following the instructions of that person in the streets and alleys to spread rumors and make trouble. ”

"What about the person's identity?"

"Houjin Spy!"

But Wei Zhongxian blew the teacup in his hand with an indifferent expression, and said leisurely: "So, the person who is being interrogated is the Houjin spy?" ”

"Back to my father-in-law.. Precisely! ”

"Our family knows, it's not too early, I'll go back first! I will wait for you in the house for half an hour. ”

"Yes!"

.... After saying that, the two glanced at each other, raised their legs and walked out of the East Factory.

The result is now clear, after all, as long as they have a clue, the results of the final interrogation are tacitly stated that it does not matter.

It's just that there are students and scholars from Donglin Academy who are involved, I'm afraid.

Sure enough.

Next.

In the Dongnuan Pavilion, Wang Chengen and Wei Zhongxian stood aside, while Zhu Youzhen said with a pale face: "In this way, the rumors of Shuntianfu are all from these people?" ”

"Returning to the Emperor.. It should be so.." Wang Chengen glanced at Wei Zhongxian and then spoke first.

"How is this Donglin Academy like a weed seed that can't be cleaned, and now when the time comes, it will start to cause trouble again."

Zhu Youzhen was a little annoyed, since the Donglin Party was specially purged by the Beijing Division, the obscure atmosphere in the court has cleared up.

But this Donglin Academy..

So Zhu Youzhen looked up at Wei Zhongxian and said, "When the Donglin Party was raided before, how did Donglin Academy deal with it..."

"The Emperor.. Donglin Academy was seized by the imperial court at the first time, and after such a long time, it is still under ban. ”

Zhu Youzhen pondered for a moment and then said in a loud voice: "I burned this Donglin Academy!" ”

Daming doesn't need such a thing to exist.

Originally, in Zhu Youzhen's opinion, as long as the Donglin Party rolls above the court were braised and served in a pot, the unhealthy trend of the Ming Dynasty could be eliminated.

Unexpectedly, after the closure of this Donglin Academy.

The Donglin Academy in the hearts of those Jiangnan students is still standing, which is undoubtedly a heavy slap in Zhu Youzhen's face.

And now these students are not only scattered in Jiangnan.

Under the guise of studying, he continued to wander around in Daming.

What's more, they now dare to participate in the turmoil related to Houjin.

"The old slave obeys."

Wang Chengen, who was on the side, added: "The emperor.. According to the old slave's humble opinion, the burning of Donglin Academy actually does not affect anything, the most important thing is to correct this crooked trend of students and scholars constantly chasing Donglin Academy! ”

"Oh? What Wang Banban said is indeed reasonable, but is there a way? ”

Zhu Youzhen tilted his head and said.

"The Emperor.. It's better to cut the grass and root it out, and involve all the students in it."

As soon as Wang Chengen said this, Zhu Youzhen immediately understood.

"Do you know how many scholars are involved in this here now?"

Wang Chengen was a little dumbfounded, and said hesitantly: "It should be.. There are tens of thousands! ”

"Yes.. Tens of thousands! How many literate people can read and write in the Ming Dynasty today? Why do these tens of thousands of people not understand my painstaking efforts all day long, but for the so-called fame and reputation, they oppose me and the court all day long! ”

The two of them were speechless for a moment, but Zhu Youzhen said again: "From today onwards, all the private academies in the Ming Dynasty are required to accept the supervision of the local yamen, but anyone who dares to discuss the affairs of the imperial court without authorization will be seriously investigated and punished!" ”

Since these scholars cannot be changed in the short term, it is all the more necessary to fundamentally solve the problem of the ideology of the scholars cultivated by the people in the future.

The hot news of Shuntianfu was followed by the imperial court several times to post announcements all over the city.

With a large number of prisoners of war from Liaodong, they were escorted back to Beijing for disposal.

And gradually cooled down, gradually subsided.. However, when the truth of the matter was known to the public, many people already showed deep remorse on their faces.

.. The streets of Suncheonbo.

It's the noodle soup stall again, and many people gather here.

"Now that the golden spy dares to be so arrogant, he dares to fabricate lies on the street and play with the rights and wrongs of my Ming Emperor! If I meet such a person again, I will definitely not spare him! ”

"Alas. That's right! How could I have believed that thief in the first place! ”

"Meet again! Be sure to report to the official as soon as possible, this is five hundred taels of silver for walking! ”

"Ahh Five hundred taels of silver? One exclaimed.

"Yes, the imperial court issued an edict a few days ago, and I also saw it in the Jingshi Daily, if the people find that there are people around them who are acting strangely, and there are many untruths in the remarks, most of them are Houjin spies, and they must report to the official as soon as possible, and if it is verified to be true, a reward of five hundred taels will be awarded!"

"Good boy! Five hundred taels of dragon dollars, how much does that have to be! ”

Public opinion has eased, and the Huangming Newspaper has once again been full of vitality, and the daily "Jingshi Daily" and the monthly "Daming Monthly" have once again been warmly welcomed by the people.

For a time, there was a lot of Luoyang paper expensive, standing on the street almost everyone has one.

The young newsboys who came and went to sell newspapers also took this opportunity to make a lot of money.

"Hehe, guess how many newspapers I sold today!"

A child dressed as a newsboy was looking proudly at the friends around him, and his words were full of ostentation.

"How much do you sell? You guy, you come the earliest every day, and you must be in the first batch of newspapers pulled out by the newspaper office! ”

"Hahaha! No, isn't this newspaper just one cent earlier, one more point to earn, and today I sold a full 200 copies of the newspaper! ”

"Ahh Two hundred! Doesn't that mean you've earned two hundred copper coins? ”

Everyone cast envious eyes, and it is a well-known thing that the newspapers of the Huangming Newspaper are almost unprofitable.

And newspapers are sold on the streets.

Not only was the newsstand built by the Huangming Newspaper Office in charge, but some of the newspapers were also sold to the young children in the orphanage in Jingshi Middle School, and the proceeds could not only subsidize their individuals, but more importantly, they could be regarded as a means of earning a living on the street for these children.
