After reading the letter from Prince Yu, although Yi Yun vomited three liters of blood and sweated so much that he was almost dehydrated, he felt a lot more comfortable. He knows, he is not fighting alone, if the war of officialdom is to pull relationships and fight for connections, he is not a person without backup, on the contrary, he has accumulated quite a lot in the years he has come to Dameng Country!

"Someone!" Yi Yun said loudly: "Send pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, I want to write a letter." ”

The first letter, of course, was addressed to the cousin of Han Daosi, the new prince of Shu, and Yi Yun didn't say anything right or wrong, so he wrote a few sentences on the letter, "The Donglin Party wants to go against me and needs your help." ”

The second letter was addressed to Zhao Yunxuan, the king of Jinling, the third letter was to Hu Zhongxian, the governor of Jiangnan, and the fourth letter was to Xiong Wencan, governor of Fujian...... Yi Yun wrote to greet all the non-Donglin Party members he knew and dealt with, and asked them to be ready to be his help.

The letters were sent to their city on carrier pigeons, and all Yiyun needed to do was wait quietly for the results.

Three days after the letter was sent, the Donglin Party's attacks began again.

This time, the news from the imperial capital is very different from the previous one, the previous time the Donglin Party people impeached Yi Yun, using the petty crime of indiscretion, this time, but the chapter is much more serious, just like the thirty-two father-in-law said, the Donglin Party's attack is from small to large, slowly to the degree.

When the news arrived, Yi Yun was sitting in the hall with Zhou Zifan drinking tea, Zhou Zifan's expression was very ugly, as a backbone of the Donglin Party, he was not exactly the same as other Donglin Party members, although he was in the Donglin Party, he was a person who was dedicated to the country and the people. is not like other civil officials who only care about their own interests, so he feels very incomprehensible about the recent impeachment of King Jiashan by the Donglin Party.

The thirty-second father-in-law walked in quickly and reported: "Lord." The scholars of the Donglin Party and the Hanlin Academy jointly issued a concert, impeaching you for ignoring the laws of the country, privately opening the sea ban, building a seaport, and fornicating with Fanbang. Disturb the economy of the Great Meng Kingdom! He even openly suggested that he should cancel your status as the prince of Shanghai, or only let you lead Jiashan, anyway, Jiashan has no port, so he is not afraid of you building a seaport. ”

"Is it really here?" Yi Yun sneered: "Zifan, what do you think about this matter?"

Zhou Zifan sighed: "Alas, I don't know what's going on." I have written countless letters to the mentor in the cabinet, explaining to him the benefits of opening up the sea trade and the great contribution it will bring to the country's economy, but the impeachment of the prince by the people of my party in this way really makes me feel ashamed. ”

"Huh. I told you about it last time...... This is not a question of whether it is good for the country and the people, but whether it is good for them!" Yi Yun shrugged his shoulders: "They only know how to protect their own interests, but they don't know how to consider the interests of the country and the people. ”

"Lord Wang, please give me some time. Zhou Zifan said seriously: "I want to go to Beijing in person." Persuade your mentor and other colleagues to withdraw their impeachment against you. ”

"Don't worry!" Yi Yun laughed, "It's not your turn yet, just watch quietly." ”

After this happened. A few days later, news came back from the imperial capital that the cabinet had suppressed the impeachment and did not accept the proposal to confiscate the Shanghai Oasis.

It's not that the Cabinet doesn't want to send it. But the cabinet did not dare to send it.

Because just when the cabinet was "considering" whether this proposal was feasible, a joint letter from the prince of Yu and the prince of Shu was sent to the imperial capital. The two most powerful princes on the southwest border announced together that King Jiashan was a good son of the prince of Chongqing, a good brother of the prince of Shu, and that the Shanghai Oasis was excavated by him from the hands of the sixth-order scorpion, risking his life, and whoever dared to ignore the ancestral family law of the Great Meng Kingdom and take back Shanghai from his hands would deprive the legitimate rights and interests of the children of the royal family, and the two princes would stop supporting the main battlefield of Huzhou together. ...,

You must know that the battlefield of Huzhou is not an ordinary battlefield, the fifty or sixty thousand rebels in the two provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou are still entangled with the fifty or sixty thousand troops of the Great Meng Kingdom, and the combined strength of the two armies is as many as more than 100,000 people, this battle is protracted, and it has lasted for several years.

The cabinet didn't dare to play with fire on this matter, and the cabinet really didn't take care of it, so the first phase of the battle was announced to be over before it began. Yiyun won without a fight, and the civilian officials of the cabinet did not dare to confiscate his oasis.

However, Ewan's victory did not last long, and the second round of the battle began again.

This time, all the attendants of the Hanlin Academy wrote together to impeach Yi Yun for proclaiming himself the king of Shanghai and setting up a large number of private troops, which has exceeded the specifications of the prince. You must know that Yi Yun's territory is not much, only Jiashan and Shanghai, but his private soldiers are as many as five or six thousand, and he is constantly buying home drivers through beggars to expand his private soldiers. The number of privately owned warships actually exceeded thirty, which was even more powerful than the scale of the Beiyang Naval Division of the Great Meng Kingdom when it was in its heyday.

There are only two little princes in the oasis city, why do you get so many soldiers, you can't rebel?

This impeachment was very powerful, and soon caused civil officials from all over the country to write together, saying that King Jiashan had gone a little too far, and letters of denunciation from all over the country were like snowflakes flying.

There were even a few radical Donglin Party members who frantically shouted: "King Jiashan is obviously planning troops to rebel! We should take his throne and demote him to a commoner." ”

When Zhou Zifan heard the news, he became excited again and threatened to go to Beijing to avenge Yiyun's grievances. However, Yi Yun still told him not to get excited and wait and see.

A few days later, Yi Yun was drinking tea with Zhou Zifan, and the thirty-second father-in-law ran in and said loudly: "Lord, the cabinet has once again pressed down the chapter, and it will not be issued!"

"Oh?" Zhou Zifan Daqi: "Why this time?"

The thirty-second father-in-law smiled and said: "A letter jointly written by Zhao Yunxuan, the king of Jinling, Cai Rou, the king of Qiantang, Hu Zhongxian, the governor of Jiangnan, Xiong Wencan, the governor of Fujian, and Zheng Zhilong, the governor of Penghu, was sent to the imperial capital. This shows why the prince needs to raise so many soldiers, if there were no such soldiers, the Jiangnan realm would have been beaten to the ground. ”

Iyun smiled but didn't say anything.

The thirty-second father-in-law continued: "This time, our help is still very strong, two princes. Coupled with two governors and a governor to help, this is not the strength that any few civil officials dare to provoke, those fools of the Donglin Party thought about it and thought about it carefully. I found that it was indeed too difficult to use this problem to bring down the prince, because the prince was indeed using these armies to deal with the Japanese and Westerners, and it would be a bit ridiculous and generous to accuse us of using these armies to rebel, and we would be sprayed to death by the people. ”

When the thirty-second father-in-law said this, he couldn't help but say with his eyebrows: "In the past, I fought with the Donglin Party, but I was always caught by them. caused the people to spray us as eunuchs, saying that we were traitors and persecuting loyalty, but I didn't expect that I could stand on the side of reason today, hahahaha. The Donglin Party, which usually makes sense, is now afraid of the people spraying. Hahahaha!"

Yi Yun spread his hands and said with a smile: "This is called being upright and not afraid of shadows! I walk straight, sit upright, and do good things for the country and the people. No way. ”...,

Zhou Zifan couldn't help but sweat beside him: "What...... I feel that the methods used by our Donglin Party colleagues to deal with the prince are a bit like the methods used by the Eunuch Party to deal with our Donglin Party, which are all nameless crimes. Or trumped-up charges. ”

"That's right!" Yi Yun laughed: "At the beginning, your Donglin Party fought with the Eunuch Party, and the Eunuch Party, under the leadership of a scumbag like the Thirty-two Father-in-law, of course couldn't hold the reason, and was always criticized by you for betraying with great reason. Now, if I go against the Donglin Party, I'm really not afraid of what they will do. Because I'm not as undisciplined as my thirty-two father-in-law. ”

"But then again, Zheng Zhilong's forces haven't started invading Southeast Asia yet. Once he starts attacking the South China Sea countries, it will be difficult for you to take advantage of the big reason. Zhou Zifan said very seriously: "At the beginning, Grandpa Tai set fifteen countries that would not be levied, including the Nanyang countries, once Zheng Zhilong made a move, even if he violated Taizu's will, when the Donglin Party people attacked together, it would be difficult for you to find someone to help you speak, and no one would dare to risk violating Taizu's will to help you, even if it was the prince of Yu, he had to think carefully." ”

"Well, you're right! It's a big problem, and I'll have to think carefully about how to fix it. Yi Yun frowned, Taizu's last order was a very difficult pass. Not to mention this backward Dameng country, even in later generations, Taizu's testament is a difficult thing to overturn. Take the Star-Spangled Banner of the United States as an example, when the United States was founded, it made a declaration, which should be regarded as something like the Taizu's testament, until now, the people of the United States still regard the declaration as the supreme treasure, and all the spirit of the United States cannot be violated by the declaration, otherwise, it will definitely be beaten down by the state machine.

Yi Yun wants to move the Taizu Testament, it is not an ordinary difficulty, maybe the princes who support him now will all oppose him, even if his old man Yu Wangye, he will persuade him to stop.

But he must not stop, otherwise the country of Da Meng will lose the opportunity to sail, and it will not take more than ten hundred years to be isolated by the whole world, and the development of science and economy will slow down, be surpassed by other countries, and finally become a country that is bullied.

"I'll really have to think about it!" Yi Yun nodded.

At this time, Taishi Xiaohua, the leader of the beggar gang, suddenly rushed in from the outside and shouted: "Oh, something is wrong!"

"Huh, why did you come here all of a sudden?

Taishi Xiaohua flattened her mouth and scolded: "I'll go, a few days ago, the helm of my beggar gang came to the helm of several court officials, and they read out to me the decree issued by the cabinet, saying that the threat of the Japanese and Westerners has been solved, so King Jiashan has no reason to continue to increase the number of private soldiers! ”

"What? fuck!" said Eyun jumped to his feet.
