"This Cha Rulong is a righteous man, if he truthfully reports to the Qing court, this person will definitely not survive."

Zhao Jinzhong, who happened to come over to have something to do, heard about it, and felt that it was wrong to do so, and that Zha Rulong would be Ling Chi by the Qing court.

Although they shaved their hair and lowered their heads, they were not sincere in submission to the Qing court, so how could they betray the righteous people who opposed the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhao Jinzhong thinks that it is a bit excessive for the head to do this.

"This Cha Rulong is a person who does not act secretly, such a confidential matter is actually called by a scholar, and he handed over the forged superintendent seal to the scholar with him, but he hides and does not see anyone, I don't think this person can do great things."

Wang Wu's evaluation of Zha Rulong should be an idealist, and his behavior is very similar to that of Zeng Jing in the Yongzheng period.

This Zeng Jing sent his students to send a letter to Yue Zhongqi, who was the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi at the time, and on the one hand, he scolded Yongzheng extremely much, and on the other hand, he inspired Yue Zhongqi with Yue Fei's deeds of resisting Jin, and persuaded Yue to turn his gun and point it at the Manchu people, the descendants of the Jin people, to avenge the Song and Ming dynasties.

As a result, Yue Zhongqi pretended to agree, deceived the confession, and arrested the two in turn, which led to the famous Lu Liuliang case.

Comparing Zha Rulong to Zeng Jing and Wu Sangui to Yue Zhongqi, things are like a template.

Since the death of the Ming Dynasty, rebellion has always been a common method used by the remnants of the Ming Dynasty who are committed to restoring the Ming Dynasty.

Fifteen years ago, this rebellion reached its peak, triggering the Green Camp Rebellion.

When the Zheng army entered the Yangtze River, a large number of officers and soldiers of the Green Battalion were also rebelled by the literati of the Ming Dynasty.

In particular, the water division is the hardest-hit area.

It's just that at that time, the rebellion was effective because the Ming and Qing dynasties had not yet decided who was in charge of the country, so there were many speculative and swinging elements.

The current rebellion is a bit too whimsical.

This Zha Rulong is also too careless, he doesn't come forward in person for such an important matter, as long as the scholar acts for him, I don't know if he spares his life or really thinks that a blood book can make Wu Sangui raise the flag and rebel.

There were still many Ming Dynasty officials and literati who refused to be used by the Qing court, some secretly conspired against the Qing Dynasty like Zha Rulong, and some lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests as the remnants of the Ming Dynasty.

These people should be regarded as a political force, but this political force played a limited role in the alternation of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and they could not unite with each other due to factional reasons in the past, and even now there are eunuchs and Donglin disputes.

Therefore, Wang Wu did not intend to send someone to contact this political force and invite him to come to Jingzhou to invite you to swim the Yangtze River, because this would not be of great help to the anti-Qing Dynasty, but would make things more complicated.

Someone has been invited, and you have to not only offer, but also listen.

But can those people listen to what they say?

If you don't listen, those people will be disappointed, and when they are disappointed, they will become dissatisfied with you.

As soon as the protégé exchanged letters, Wang Wu's reputation must be stinky.

What's more, he was born in Shunying, and in the eyes of those orthodox Ming Dynasty remnants, he can't get rid of the word "thief".

Therefore, starting from scratch and going it alone is the right way.

Whether it is Shun, Ming, Donglin, Eunuch, Gui, Tang, or Lu, they are all swept into the garbage heap of history.

Jingzhou is just a banner and a will.

"After this blood letter reaches Wu Sangui's hands, what do you think Wu Sangui will do?"

Wang Wu knew what Zhao Jinzhong meant, although he was respectful of the remnants of the Ming Dynasty, he didn't really want to help the Qing court deal with this force, let alone strangle these folk anti-Qing righteous people with his own hands.

Just as he embarked on the road of resisting the Qing Dynasty because he didn't want to kill the old pawn with Suo Yanlong.

Zhao Jinzhong thought for a long time and said, "Most of them report truthfully." ”

The reason is that if Wu Sangui really had the heart to oppose the Qing Dynasty, he should have raised troops two months ago, instead of continuing to pretend to be a turtle in Kunming.

Therefore, how could a letter of blood make Wu Sangui rebel.

Wang Wu nodded: "In order to clear the suspicion of rebellion, Wu Sangui will definitely hand over people to the Qing court, this blood letter will not have any effect, and the Qing court will also downplay this matter in order to appease Wu Sangui, but this is not what I want." ”

What Wang Wu wanted was to exacerbate the contradictions between the Qing court and Wu Sangui, so as to prompt Wu Sangui to raise troops in advance, so he asked Lao Zhang to truthfully report the bloody case to the Qing court.

Zhao Jinzhong was puzzled: "But this blood book was not sent at all, how could the Qing court suspect Wu Sangui?" ”

"The wonderful thing is that the blood book was not sent."

Wang Wu smiled, "If the blood book is sent over, it will be meaningless." ”

Zhao Jinzhong understood the reasoning, but said: "In terms of the blood book alone, it actually has nothing to do with Wu Sangui, because he doesn't know about it at all. ”

After hearing this, Wang Wu asked Zhao Jinzhong rhetorically: "What do you see from this blood letter?" ”

Zhao Jinzhong didn't think about it: "Of course, this Zha Rulong wants to persuade Wu Sangui to oppose the Qing Dynasty." ”

Wang Wu shook his head: "No, it's the human heart." ”

To put it bluntly, it is as if the hearts of today's anti-Qing people are in Wu Sangui.

In other words, Wu Sangui is the only hope for all those who oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty in the world.

Otherwise, why didn't Zha Rulong give him the blood book to Wang Yaowu, but gave it to Wu Sangui thousands of miles away.

Compared with Wang Wu, who won the great victory in Xishan and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Wu Sangui, the king of the Qing court, was more valued by the remnants of the Ming Dynasty.

"This Cha Rulong is just one of these people, his blood book has been seized, what about the others? There are two letters, and if there is one, there are a hundred or a thousand persuaders. ”

As long as the Qing court firmly believed that all the people in the Ming Dynasty would move closer to Wu Sangui, the measures taken against Wu Sangui would inevitably continue to be strengthened.

It's like a short video, if you don't speed up and watch it normally, it will take ten minutes.

But if the progress bar is fastened, the video will only take five minutes to watch.

Wang Wu asked Zhang Changgeng to truthfully report the blood book case, which was doing fast-forward work.

Zhao Jinzhong didn't say anything after hearing this, and only let the head find a way to keep Zha Rulong.

Wang Wu thought about it for a while, and wrote a letter to Lao Zhang in Wuchang, meaning to send troops to arrest Zha Rulong in the name of the Yamen, the governor of Huguang, but the news was leaked in advance, and if Zha Rulong was not stupid, he should immediately move and hide elsewhere.

But if Zha Rulong refuses to leave and has to be a martyr, then Wang Wu can't help it.

However, in this way, it will make the Qing court feel like a fish in the throat of Wu Sangui.

As for the scholar of Cha Rulong, he can be given a credit for taking the initiative to expose, anyway, the case was tried by Lao Zhang, and it was also reported by Lao Zhang, how to characterize it is just a matter of moving the pen.

The letter also asked Lao Zhang to help find a few bold speculative officials, and encouraged them to write a letter to expose Wu Sangui's unauthorized use of power, and the arbitrary selection of Yunnan officials hindered the national system.

After the letter was sent, he asked Zhao Jinzhong what he was looking for.

Zhao Jinzhong sighed, saying that he had just received the news that Hushuai had defeated Zhushan, and more than 1,000 officers and soldiers under the general soldiers Wang Jialu, Wen Lianggui, and Zhang Shixiu were killed.

The defeat of the Ming army was Chen Fu, the former Chongqing commander-in-chief who had recently been transferred to the governor of Shaanxi.
