Xu Guan said.

"Humph, he has relapsed!"

Wu Yanxin sneered.

They didn't notice that the clerk standing next to him was lowering his head with a strange expression...

after an hour.

Mount Wutai.

"This is indeed a relapse of an old illness. Without Lian Zining as a scapegoat, I want to find another one. No wonder Huang Zicheng can't do it. Just looking for a scapegoat in advance if he wants to become a big man will not work!"

Yang Feng sighed with emotion.

And the clerk, dressed as a farmer and wearing a square hat, was counting the money and leaving happily.

A stronghold of Confucian scholars like the Hanlin Academy, of course, has to bribe a few moles. With the current treatment of minor officials in the Ming Dynasty, it is too easy to bribe them. The nature of minor officials is also to serve as free prostitutes. However, many officials in the capital are

Foreigners, so we give them a salary of three or four dan a month, which is barely enough to support the family. With this salary, we will give them an extra five guan of banknotes a month. If they get valuable information, they will be given extra rewards depending on the situation, and they can bribe the inner ghosts.

Loyalty can be bought.

Not only the Hanlin Academy, but also every government office in the capital now has Yang Feng's moles.

It's nothing more than a few hundred pounds of additional expenses a month.

Then the major yamen can be one-way transparent to him.

"don't know!"

The little princess shook her head.

It is spring now, so she is wearing a dress with half of her calves exposed. At this rate of development, she will be able to wear her navel-baring dress in a few days.

Anyway, her dressing room is next to Yang Feng's office. If her father or Zhu Yunxi suddenly comes to Wutai Mountain, then change clothes quickly. As for her being with Yang Feng, everyone knows this. She even has her own room here.

Desk, she is the bank director...

It was sealed by her father.

Daxia Bank is a foreign investment, and the manager is indeed Yang Feng, but as a partner, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty must of course appoint a supervisor.

This director must be her.

So her desk is right next to Yang Feng, as if she has a female secretary.

"Huang Zicheng wants to fight me, and he also wants to make things bigger, but if things get bigger, you have to be prepared to withstand unpredictable consequences. For example, Lian Zining was there last time, but now there is no Lian Zining, so a new one is needed.

Lian Zining. Someone who can be coaxed by them to stand up as a banner, and then when the trouble gets out of hand, can choose to sacrifice himself for the overall situation, and can be their scapegoat. It is obvious that they think Fang Xiaoru is suitable.

So even if they could go and make a big fuss tomorrow, they still had to travel thousands of miles to find ways to get Fang Xiaoru here.

in case.

Obviously they still trust each other's Xiaoru's integrity.

I don’t know what Fang Xiaoru felt after understanding this: was he happy that his moral integrity was affirmed by the scholars or was he angry that they chose him as the scapegoat?"

Yang Feng said with a smile.

"Then you let them make trouble?"

The little princess sat on his desk and said.

"Of course, I like to make a fuss the most.

If they are willing to help me make trouble, that's all I can ask for.

They obviously don’t understand what hype is. In this regard, they are not as good as their younger generations. Do you know how your civil servants in the Ming Dynasty hyped up something? They hired people to post stickers outside, and then used the stickers to spread rumors to attack a certain political opponent.

, and then the censor heard about it and reported it to the emperor.

At the same time, the news spread throughout the country.

The Sixth Section and the local yamen all have people who are responsible for privately copying newspapers. The capital has become a business, so the content they fabricate will quickly spread throughout the country.

In the end it depends on the situation.

If the goal is achieved, then forget it.

If the goal cannot be achieved, then you can take advantage of the public opinion they create to create a stir in various places. For example, let the scholars go to the Weeping Temple. Anyway, the local literati like to be in the limelight. Find a few great Confucians to take the lead, and everyone will hold up the memorial tablet of Confucius.

, go to the Confucian Temple to cry in the temple and denounce the traitorous officials of the imperial court.

The local magistrate will play again.

This would put enough pressure on the court.

They can even force the court to surrender and finally achieve their goals.

If that doesn't work, there's something even worse.

Organize local scholars to go to the house of the political enemy they attack and smash it. Confucian scholars completely control the local discourse. Whoever the Confucian scholars say is a traitor is a traitor. Since it is a traitor, then we loyal people should express it.

Anger is reasonable, right?

During this period, some damage was caused, which was all due to righteous indignation and impulsiveness.

And it's impossible for them to do it themselves.

They all have slaves with them!

The local officials dare not take care of it, because whoever takes care of it will be the next traitorous official.

If that's not enough, then it's time to encourage the people to take to the streets, that is, a civil uprising. Sacrifice a few brave men who are highly rewarded, and take the lead in launching a civil uprising. Local officials will cooperate and report to the court. As long as the pressure is strong enough, it will be done.

Bring the court to its knees.

You go find your father quickly.

Tell him this routine and let him take a look if he is interested to see how far these Confucian scholars can make things happen. He thinks these people are under his control, so he will take a closer look at the abilities these people have.

He did have the ability to suppress these people while he was alive, but he didn't want to think about whether his descendants would have his ability after his death. Would they be able to fight against such a force that controlled the court to the local areas, from officialdom to the people?

He can hold a knife, and his descendants also have his ability and can hold a knife?"

Yang Feng said.

Indeed, it would be good to let Zhu Yuanzhang watch the show.

Also let him see what would happen if the Confucian scholars took control.

It is true that Confucian scholars today cannot reach the level that they did in the late Ming Dynasty.

But they are already very strong.

From the imperial court to local governments, most of them are now officials who came from the imperial examination. The imperial examination was reopened in the 17th year of Hongwu. It has been eleven years now. Thousands of Jinshi have been trained, not to mention that students who have been awarded the imperial examination can also directly become officials. Moreover,

Even if they are not Jinshi candidates and so on, even the officials recruited in the past are basically Confucian students. There are not many officials who are junior officials. And with the improvement of local school education at all levels, batches of new Confucian students have also

They have been cultivated long ago and formed a large group that has the right to speak locally. They are already strong enough to cause trouble.

It's just that he didn't dare to do so in the shadow of Zhu Yuanzhang.

but now……

Now it depends on whether they dare to try to break through Zhu Yuanzhang's shadow.

"Have to change clothes again!"

The little princess said angrily.

"Then you don't have to change and just wear this to see him."

Yang Feng said.

"Well, I don't want to get stuck."

The little princess quickly got off the table and got into her dressing room.
Chapter completed!
