Suzhou!
The place where Chinese people gather together is known as the heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below!
However, the atmosphere in Suzhou at this time was a bit depressing, because it was rumored that the current emperor sent eunuch Li Jinzhong to lead an army south in order to collect money.
This Li Jinzhong is even more cruel and ruthless. Everywhere he goes, countless people are forced to sell their children and daughters. There are even wealthy businessmen who are targeted by Li Jinzhong. If they are directly found to be charged, their families will be destroyed!
People always like to believe such terrifying rumors, so when the news of Li Jinzhong¡¯s coming to Suzhou spread, the people of Suzhou were in danger. Some people even took their whole family out of the city to avoid disaster!
However, Suzhou is a prosperous place after all, and more people want to make a living in Suzhou. Therefore, although many people have left, Suzhou as a whole is still prosperous, and there are even more scholars than usual!
In a restaurant, there were dozens of scholars gathering, but this time they did not talk loudly or compose poems. Instead, they all had angry faces and expressions of anger!
One of the scholars in blue stood in the middle of the crowd and said loudly: "Everyone, Li Jinzhong is comparable to Wang Zhen and Liu Jin back then. He not only deceived the saints and oppressed the good, but he was also greedy. He went to Shandong to force the saints' family, and he used clever words. He deceived the king and deposed the king who dared to offend Yan Zhijian. When he entered Nanjing, he intimidated the nobles of Nanjing and plundered tens of millions of taels of silver. Now that Li Jinzhong has come straight to Suzhou, I think Suzhou will be ruined by him again. I will wait to read The book of sages must not allow this evil to poison Suzhou and Hangzhou!"
After this person finished speaking, someone else immediately stood up and said: "It would be fine if Li Jinzhong only wanted to collect gold and silver, but he actually brought many blank imperial edicts. If he is treated with filial piety, he will be directly appointed as an official. If he is offended, He wants to issue an order to kill people. When he established Emperor Liu Jin, he had power over the government and the opposition. I'm afraid he didn't have such power. If we rashly fight against him, I'm afraid we will inevitably be killed!"
"So what?" Kairan, the scholar in blue, said: "Sacrificing one's life for charity and sacrificing one's life for righteousness is the integrity of our generation of scholars. If this brother is afraid of that eunuch, why not go and worship him as a godfather early on?" You can also get temporary wealth!"
"Nonsense!" The scholar who just spoke immediately yelled in shame: "You dare to sacrifice your life for righteousness, am I a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? Today I will write a book of ten thousand words to accuse the eunuch Li Jinzhong of his crimes. If there is anyone who is not afraid of death, , then sign with me to report to the emperor, if there is someone who is wise enough to protect himself, I will not force him!"
"That's right, let's write a letter of ten thousand words to the emperor so that the eunuch Li Jinzhong can reveal his true colors!"
"If anyone here today is afraid of that eunuch, please leave quickly. We don't even bother to associate with such people!"
"That eunuch is full of evil and everyone can find it and punish him. We are willing to write a letter together!"
The so-called scholarly spirit is like this. No matter whether you are young or old, as long as you are a scholar, you will have the temperament of never looking back.
Naturally, no one would be shy in front of so many people, and soon a eloquent book with ten thousand words was written, and all the scholars here, whether sincerely or not, wrote their names on it!
Such things continued to happen all over Suzhou, and more and more scholars were aroused. Some of them made impassioned speeches in public and denounced Li Jinzhong's evil deeds. Some wrote poems and inscriptions to satirize the government officials. Some even made a big fanfare to persuade Li Jinzhong to enter the country. Beat him to death in the city!
What¡¯s strange is that the city of Suzhou is in an uproar, but the people from Jinyiwei and Dongchang don¡¯t make any move. This also makes the scholars become more troubled, and even the cautious ordinary people also start to make trouble!
For a time, the whole city of Suzhou was filled with the sound of killing eunuchs. It seemed that as soon as Li Jinzhong entered Suzhou, he would be cut to pieces by the people of Suzhou. However, these things did not escape Dongchang's eyes. The situation in Suzhou was being Keep giving it away!
Just when Suzhou was in an uproar, in a quiet and elegant garden in the city of Suzhou, Zhou Yifu, the head of the Zhou family, and Qi Huaiyuan, the head of the Qi family, were drinking tea and talking in a pavilion!
After Zhou Yifu dropped his son, he said in a rather helpless tone: "The Wang family, the Song family, the Liu family, and the Zhang family sent dozens of ships of food to Tianjin. The Han family also seemed to have received some news. This time, they didn't pick up my message." Post!¡±
Qi Huaiyuan held the chess pieces and stared at the chessboard, but he asked: "Brother Zhou must have not heard from Beijing for a long time, right?"
After saying that, drop the chess piece in your hand!
Zhou Yifu¡¯s eyes twitched slightly, and then he sneered and said, ¡°It seems that the same is true for Brother Qi Xian!¡±
Qi Huaiyuan looked up at Zhou Yifu and said with a wry smile: "There is a saying in Beijing recently, it's called shooting to the head."?, It seems that your family and I are the ones who stand out! "
"Hmph!" Zhou Yifu angrily dropped a chess piece into the plate and said, "Even if you and I are the first ones, no one can beat us if they want to!"
Qi Huaiyuan smiled calmly and said, "Brother Zhou, what measures have you taken?"
Zhou Yifu¡¯s fierce eyes flashed, and he gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words: ¡°Japanese pirates!¡±
Hearing this, Qi Huaiyuan stopped the chess piece in mid-air. He watched Zhou Yifu take a long time to drop the chess piece, and then pondered for a moment and said: "Although this move is a dangerous move, it also means seeking survival from death. It's just that those on the sea now The people seem to have little interest in coming ashore, I wonder how Brother Zhou can get them to come ashore?"
"Silver!" Zhou Yifu said decisively: "I will give you three hundred thousand taels of silver, please! Mr. Li of the Japanese country will send five thousand Japanese pirates ashore. He only needs to kill the two thousand cavalry led by Li Jinzhong first, and then let the Japanese pirates go." If you disturb the southeast, I believe that you and I, the two leading birds, can fly up to the branches and watch the tigers fight!"
"Hahahaha!" Qi Huaiyuan suddenly laughed and said: "Brother Zhou is really brave. I just spent two hundred thousand taels of silver to summon four to five thousand bandits from three mountains and five mountains, but you directly invited the Sea Dragon King. It seems that Li Jinzhong will definitely die this time!"
"Oh?" Zhou Yifu looked at Qi Huaiyuan in surprise and said happily: "It turns out that my dear brother also has such an idea. It seems that you and I are really in sync with each other!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
On the official road from Nanjing to Suzhou, Li Jinzhong was sitting in a carriage watching the intelligence that was constantly being sent to him. However, among the intelligence was things that were causing trouble among the scholars and people in Suzhou. Although Li Jinzhong was angry, he still couldn't. I didn¡¯t take it to heart!
Suddenly, a piece of information with three red lines on it fell into Li Jinzhong's eyes. He immediately picked it up and looked at it carefully. As a result, his face turned pale immediately after taking a look at it!
"Stop! Stop the car quickly!" Li Jinzhong suddenly shouted and jumped off the carriage!
Fortunately, the coachman was experienced and reined in the horse when Li Jinzhong shouted, so that Li Jinzhong was not thrown and bitten by the dog!
Li Jinzhong jumped off the carriage and shouted regardless: "Please come to Mr. Cao quickly, please come to Mr. Cao quickly!"
Soon Cao Ling came galloping over on horseback. When he saw Li Jinzhong, Cao Ling jumped off his horse and asked, "Eunuch Li, what happened?"
Li Jinzhong sent the information to Cao Ling and said with a trembling voice: "The Zhou family and the Qi family invited tens of thousands of Japanese pirates to ambush us. What should Master Cao do?"
Cao Ling took the information and read it carefully. The expression on his face gradually became ferocious. Suddenly Cao Ling laughed and said, "Okay! Okay! Okay! Finally, I met someone with backbone, hahahaha!"
Li Jinzhong looked at the almost crazy Cao Ling and thought to himself: "Is this Cao Ling crazy?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
