Chongzhen Daming: Starting from Coal Mountain

Chapter 323
The next morning, Huang Erding, the supervisory censor, went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to report.

Huang Erding is also a member of the Donglin Party, but he is just a pawn.

As soon as I walked out of the alley of the rented house, I looked up and saw a group of porters sitting in front of a steamed cake shop on the street, chatting while eating hot steamed cakes.

Seeing Huang Er Ding approaching, the porter immediately looked for him to come.

Usually, Huang Erding often eats breakfast at this steamed cake shop.

But today, Huang Erding always felt that these porters looked at him strangely, so he didn't want to sit with them, and immediately walked past with his head down.

But the murmurs of the porters still reached his ears.

Porter A: "Have you heard? Gao Hongtu is a treacherous minister!"

Porter B: "Really? Isn't Gao Hongtu a member of the Donglin Party?"

Porter C: "So what about the Donglin Party? Can't the Donglin Party be a traitor?"

Porter Ding: "That's right, some Donglin party members are so bad, they even punish themselves."

Porter A: "Xiao Ding, are you talking about the old man Zuo Guangxian? That old man was stripped naked by Prince Qin last night and tied to a donkey cart. He really disgraced his eighteen generations of ancestors." gone."

Porter B: "Hush, keep your voice down, there is a Donglin Party here."

Then, more than a dozen porters looked at Huang Er Ding in unison.

Huang Erding hurriedly covered his ears with his sleeves, and couldn't help speeding up his feet.

Even after walking a long distance, I could still hear the scolding from the steamed cake shop behind me.

Huang Erding's face collapsed, it seems that not only Gao Hongtu and the others have been ruined, but also the entire Donglin Party has been ruined.

Walking to the head of Laiyan Bridge, I suddenly heard the voice of my colleague Lu Lang.

Looking up hurriedly, he saw Lu Lang blushing and arguing with a group of traffickers.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Lu Lang scolded with a red face, "It's true that there are traitors in the Donglin Party, Gao Hongtu and Zuo Guangxian are all traitors, but most of the Donglin Party members are loyal ministers. The Donglin Party still has a lot of loyal ministers, for example, Mr. Jiang Ge and Zhang Da Situ are loyal ministers, as well as this official..."

"You lied!" A childish voice suddenly sounded.

"Liu Mazi has already said that the Donglin party members are all treacherous officials, and there is not a single loyal official!"

"Liu Mazi is a storyteller, can he believe what he said?" Lu Lang suddenly became anxious, "I am a majestic seventh-rank censor, so what I say is not as good as a storyteller?"

"Then are you from the Donglin Party?" Someone asked again.

"My official is the Donglin Party." Lu Lang nodded, and then said, "But..."

However, before he finished speaking, rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, and all kinds of filth came over him head and face.

"This man is the Donglin Party. There is a Donglin Party here. Come on, everyone, kill this Donglin Party, kill this traitor, kill him, kill him, kill him!"

Public opinion in Nanjing may not turn so quickly.

However, public opinion in Chaoku Street and Gongyuan Street has taken the lead to turn around. Almost overnight, the Donglin Party has changed from a loyal person praised by everyone to a rat crossing the street that everyone shouts and beats.

Lu Lang actually wanted to try to argue, opened his mouth and shouted: "Listen to me..."

However, before he could finish his sentence, a bag of something unknown was accurately smashed into his mouth and split open, and then an indescribable smell was fed back to his brain through the taste buds on his tongue, shit!And it's shit!
Lu Lang fell to the ground and retched violently, almost vomited all his bile.

But those peddlers and women who got up early to buy vegetables still didn't let him go.

All kinds of filth still rained down on Lu Lang.

Fortunately, Huang Er Ding rushed in desperately and dragged Lu Lang out.

Otherwise, I really don't know what will happen.

……

Xu Yingwei got out from the crowd, turned into an alley, and came to a carriage.

First, he bowed deeply through the side curtain of the carriage, and then said respectfully, "My lord."

Good guy, Chongzhen is sitting in the Ganqing carriage, and Xu Yingwei secretly instigated the siege of Yushi Lu Lang just now with a few Qin Wang scholars.

Chongzhen was worried that he would be recognized, so he didn't lift the curtain.

Instead, he asked through the curtain of the car: "Youzhen, you don't think this is cheap, do you?"

"Of course not." Xu Yingwei said solemnly, "When you are in an emergency, you should do something wrong. Besides, our scholar camp is just repaying others in the same way. The Donglin Party is the first day of junior high school, so don't blame it. The Shizi camp will do fifteen."

"Okay, Youzhen, this is what I admire most about you." Chongzhen said happily, "Knowing the current affairs, knowing how to advance and retreat, this is more rare than you alone charging against hundreds of Jiannu white armor soldiers."

"Students are ashamed." Xu Yingwei said hastily, "I dare not be so absurd as a saint."

"Go and get busy." Chongzhen smiled, and said again, "Continue to strengthen the propaganda. After today, the Donglin Party in Nanjing and even the entire Jiangnan will be completely reduced to street rats that everyone shouts and beats."

"Students lead the order." Xu Yingwei got up and walked away.

Xu Yingwei walked away, but Zhu Cijiong's voice sounded from inside the carriage: "Father, the propaganda of the Scholars Camp is so effective. If I knew it was so, why wait until today? It's time for them to promote it."

"Jiong'er, you are wrong." Chongzhen sighed, "Everything needs to be guided according to the situation. If you blindly do things with half the effort, maybe the final result will be counterproductive."

After a pause, he continued: "For example, if the public opinion war with the Donglin Party had not been prepared in advance, if there hadn't been Piyong's question last night, and Huang Zongxi and the others hadn't paraded Zuo Guang first, then even if it was Xu Yingwei and the others have told the truth, even if it is Liu Jingting and the others who are telling the sky, few people will believe it."

"But with Piyong asking the case, and Zuo Guangxian parading naked in the street, everything will come naturally."

"At this time, Xu Yingwei and the others only need a little guidance, and they can easily arouse the public indignation of the people of Nanjing."

"After all, your father's image in the hearts of the people is also very good. Not only does he know how to fight, he can win battles, but he is also a rare benevolent and righteous king."

……

"What kind of bullshit is the king of benevolence and righteousness? I'm bah!"

Hu Ke even brushed off the filth on Luo Wanxiang during the incident, and cursed disdainfully.

"Luo Wanxiang, shut up!" Hubu Shangshu Zhang Youyu's face collapsed in an instant, it's fine to say such things behind his back, and now he is on Gongyuan Street.

"Big Situ, what the officer said is the truth."

Luo Wanxiang said: "Chongzhen is really insidious. Last night, Huang Zongxi and others escorted Zuoqian Duxian to tour Chaoku Street naked. They were clearly instructed by Chongzhen. There were also traffickers on Chaoku Street, Gongyuan Street, and both sides of the Qinhuai River this morning. The reactions of Zuo and Shengdou Xiaomin are also very unusual, and the officials suspect that someone is hiding behind the scenes and instigating."

"Doubt?" Zhang Youyu snorted coldly, "Is there any need to doubt this matter?"

"So Da Situ also thinks that this matter was instigated by someone?" Luo Wanxiang immediately lifted his spirits when he heard this, and said, "If this is the case, I will go to Yingtianfu's office and order Yingtianfu to thoroughly investigate this matter."

"This is an idiot talking about dreams!" Zhang Youyu reprimanded very bluntly.

"Governor Jin Xuan of Yingtian is one of the nine ministers who went to the disaster, will he care about you?"

Luo Wanxiang said: "Jin Xuan can ignore the lower officials, but he can't ignore you, Da Situ, right?"

Zhang Xiaoyu sighed, and said: "In normal times, Jin Xuan would not dare to ignore me, but at this time, our Donglin Party has been implicated by Gao Hongtu, and has become a street mouse that everyone shouts and beats..."

While talking, there was a sudden loud drumming noise at the street ahead.

"Look, here is the sedan chair of a top official, go and have a look, walk around."

Immediately, the servant standing in front of Zhang Youyu's sedan chair shouted sharply: "What are you doing? Stop quickly, this is the guard of honor of the Minister of the Ministry of Households today, who dares to be presumptuous?!"

"Shangshu Zhang Youyu?"

"Zhang Youyu? It seems he is also a member of the Donglin Party."

"Zhang Youyu is the Donglin Party, and he wanted to snatch the Holy Majesty's House of Internal Affairs."

"How dare you go against the Holy Majesty? That must be a traitor, that's right, big guy, greet me!"

Immediately, all kinds of filth rained down on Zhang Youyu's official umbrella and official sedan chair. In a short while, Zhang Youyu's official umbrella and official sedan chair and the guards around him were already covered with filth.

Zhang Youyu hid in the official sedan chair to avoid being splashed all over.

But the sour smell was unstoppable.

At that moment Zhang Youyu said with a dark face, "Go home!"

I can't go to school today, so I can only stay at home.

……

Bird Clothes Lane, Shi Kefa's mansion.

Looking at a picture of writing on the desk, Shi Kefa remained silent for a long time.

Shi Dewei stood in front of Shi Kefa respectfully.

Shi Dewei is a native of Datong, Shanxi. He was originally an aid to suppress the capital. In the eleventh year of Chongzhen, he was adopted by Shi Kefa as his adopted son, and he has been with Shi Kefa ever since.

"Longjiang." Shi Kefa asked, "Is this really what the Holy One said?"

"Father, the Holy Majesty really said this." Shi Dewei said with certainty, "My son remembers it very clearly. Although I dare not say that the words are correct, the meaning is probably not bad."

Shi Kefa sighed softly, and said a nonsensical sentence: "How can the sparrow know the ambition of the swan?"

Shi Dewei also didn't know what Shi Kefa's words meant, and said: "Father, my son thinks that these words of the Holy Majesty are to lure Gao Hongtu to relax his vigilance, so it can't be true."

"Longjiang, you are wrong to think so." Shi Kefa said solemnly, "The Holy One is thoughtful and far-sighted, how could he speak nonsense in front of so many officials, gentry and scholars in Biyong Mingtang?"

"Since the Holy Majesty has said so, then he will definitely do so in the future."

After a pause, Shi Kefa sneered again and said, "It's ridiculous to say that, what Gao Hongtu and his country's thieves are desperately trying to get is what the Holy Majesty intended to give them, ha ha."

"After all, they misjudged His Majesty, and they also misjudged His Majesty for their father."

"Today's sage is really a wise king, a sage king that is rare in ancient and modern times."

Shi Dewei looked solemn, he did not expect his father to speak so highly of the Holy One.
