Xu Guangqi said meaningfully: "Your Majesty, as you said, the means are not comparable to ordinary people, I am afraid that in Your Majesty's mind, there are no upright ministers, and there is no treacherous and cunning minister." ”

"As long as whoever is useful to His Majesty, His Majesty will reuse whom, whether he is upright or not, he is just a tool in His Majesty's hands."

Although Liu Hongxun found that Xu Guangqi did not understand what he meant, he found that Xu Guangqi was not useless, at least the things he said were very clever in Liu Hongxun's mind.

He became more enthusiastic about this Xu Guangqi, and continued: "Xia Guan doesn't think like this, it's just that in the eyes of His Majesty, we are all tools like the ministers of the eunuch party, but Xia Guan also believes that His Majesty definitely does not want to have only one tool, and I am afraid that this eunuch party will also usher in a major blow in the future." ”

"As long as this happens, we Donglin Party members will also have a chance to get back on our feet."

"For example, this time His Majesty brought us to see the test of new rifles and artillery, which is obviously to send us such a signal."

"If the lower official's guess is right, Your Majesty will definitely give us a chance in the next period of time, it depends on whether we can catch it."

Xu Guangqi finally understood what Liu Hongxun meant, but he still couldn't understand it, and couldn't help asking, "What kind of opportunity do you say this opportunity is?" Does Your Majesty want us to go to the northwest to help the victims? The old man also saw that the drought in the northwest has become more and more serious recently, which is also possible. ”

Liu Hongxun nodded, shook his head again and said, "Who knows?" Your Majesty's heart is as deep as the sea, and we who are courtiers should not speculate arbitrarily, even if we want to guess, we can't guess. "Eight One Chinese Net

"It depends on what Your Majesty means, according to the speculation of the following officials, Your Majesty will definitely summon a minister of the Donglin Party to face the saint in the near future, in my opinion, the two pavilion elders are the ones who have the best chance to meet the saint, and then we will know what Your Majesty has chosen for us."

Xu Guangqi here still wanted to continue to discuss with Liu Hongxun, but Liu Hongxun over there had sharp eyes and saw that His Majesty's carriage had already driven out of the palace.

The other ministers should also follow step by step, and the status of the two of them is relatively high, and soon it will be their turn to set off, and it is not good for the two to talk deeply with each other.

It's just that in this chat, this Liu Hongxun glanced at Xu Guangqigao a few times.

He bowed to Xu Guangqi and said, "Elder Xu's insights are in simple terms, and it can be said that the lower officials have benefited a lot from chatting with Elder Ge about this meeting. ”

"It's just that the time is too short now, and I don't understand a lot of things, he is free in the future, and the next official will choose a convenient time for Xu Ge to visit, and please don't dislike Xu Ge when the time comes."

Although Xu Guangqi doesn't like to be mixed into the party constitution, he understands that as a member of the Donglin Party, he can't avoid such a situation, and even if he wants to hide, he can't avoid it.

He bowed back to Liu Hongxun, he really appreciated this Liu Hongxun, and said, "Since this is the case, then I will wait for Liu Bianxiu to come." ”

Xu Guangqi was about to get into the carriage, but when he saw Sun Chengzong boarding the carriage not far away, he still looked lost and depressed, and he also shook his head.

I don't know how much time it will take to cheer up in Sun Chengzong, half a month? One month? Two months?

He could also understand Sun Chengzong's helplessness, and remembered what Liu Hongxun said, and exhaled deeply.

Recently, these Donglin Party members have also lived a very aggrieved life, and some Donglin Party members have directly thrown themselves into the arms of the eunuch party.

And some other Donglin Party members who really can't let go of their position are even more awkward.

There are some Donglin Party officials who can't bear the embarrassment, so they can only resign and go into hiding, and some who are reluctant to take official positions can only act in a low-key manner, and endure what they can.

The problem is that even if you want to endure it, not all Donglin Party officials are qualified, and it depends on whether Your Majesty allows them to do so.

But fortunately, the one who survived was the more intelligent Donglin Party minister after all, because the most disobedient wave of the Donglin Party had already died in the whole family.

Now that they are either talented, more honest, or more obedient, Zhu Youxiao is still useful if he wants to keep them.

If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that these Donglin Party will slowly die out, in fact, the essence of the Donglin Party was good at the beginning, but there were too many things mixed in later, which caused the Donglin Party to have deteriorated.

If the Donglin Party can be saved this time, it will indeed be a good thing, but Xu Guangqi knows very well that if His Majesty wants to keep their Donglin Party, it must want to turn them into a tool, and their Donglin Party may pay a lot of things.

Maybe there will be some things in it that they can accept, but there are many things that he can't accept, and then it will depend on how the ministers of the eastern leadership choose.

But no matter how you choose, you can only choose under the tolerance of Your Majesty, otherwise, once the Donglin Party does anything wrong, it can only follow in the footsteps of Hui Shiyang and others.

His Majesty can take advantage of not only their Donglin Party members, but now there are some officials, neither the ministers of their Donglin Party nor the ministers of the Eunuch Party, but the resurgence of the Qi, Zhejiang, and Chu Party back then, and it is obvious that they also see such an opportunity.

It's just that the strength of this wave of people is still too weak, if you want to support them to do the right thing for the eunuchs, Your Majesty will have to put a lot of effort into it, and obviously this is not what Zhu Youxiao wants to do.

Then again, Zhu Youxiao doesn't want to put so much effort into it, it doesn't mean that Zhu Youxiao can't put so much effort into it, if it's really urgent, Zhu Youxiao really helped up the Qi, Zhejiang and Chu Party, and their Donglin Party will perish.

Xu Guangqi actually saw clearly very early that the Donglin Party people couldn't play with His Majesty, in His Majesty's eyes, their Donglin Party was like a little thrush locked in a cage, and they could be pinched by His Majesty at any time, even if they could flutter a few times, they would be powerless after all.

So no matter what the result is now, whether Your Majesty is willing to give them a chance or not, it is up to Your Majesty to decide, they have no choice, they can only choose to accept or not to accept

But even if His Majesty gives them a chance, will they be able to seize it?

This is also a very big problem, Xu Guangqi is also very worried about this, he knows very well that the foundation of their Donglin Party is still in the hands of the southeast landlords and big businessmen.

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
