Chapter 173: Destroy the eunuch party, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty seeks the moon

"Geng'er, what do you think about this?"

Brothers fighting tigers, father and son fight.

It is related to the prospects of the Zuo family, and the first thing Zuo Liangyu thought of was to ask Zuo Menggeng for his opinion.

After hearing this, Zuo Menggeng bowed to Zuo Liangyu and said, "My son thought that preserving his strength is the best way to do it now. It is better to give up Wuchang and go south to Nanjing to eat. Li Chuang traveled thousands of miles to Huguang, which was the time to rest. It was absolutely impossible to continue along the river. As long as his father led his army to Nanzhili, it would be safe."

Zuo Liangyu didn't say much.

Zuo Menggeng coincided with his ideas, which made Zuo Liangyu feel a complicated feeling.

He was both relieved and worried about his son's intelligence. Can he really bear this burden with his son's personality?

After all, there is not much difference between "clearing the king's side" and rebellion. If the arrow is drawn without turning back, the father and son can only go one way to the dark.

If it succeeds, his father and son can use the emperor to command the princes. If it fails, it will be doomed.

"Geng'er, let me ask you for your father. Did you say all you said just now?

After thinking about it, Zuo Liangyu felt that Zuo Menggeng might have been guided by an expert.

Zuo Menggeng hurriedly bowed and said, "My father, these are the heartfelt words of his son! Li Chuang went south and rushed straight to Huguang. His army of more than 100,000 under his command, if he joins Bai Wang, his troops can reach more than 200,000. No matter how you look at Huguang, it will be dead!"

Zuo Liangyu nodded and sighed: "Okay, my son has finally grown up."

Zuo Menggeng's words just now were very insightful, and Zuo Liangyu finally made up his mind.

Sooner or later, if you continue to stay in Wuchang, you will have a conflict with Li Zicheng, and it is inevitable that the soldiers will be damaged. It is better to grit your teeth and stomp your feet to lead the army to evacuate.

After a moment of pause, he continued, "Then tell me, what name should I use to sanctify the king? Who is the slander around His Majesty?"

There must be an object when clearing the king. This person can be just a scapegoat, but it must be.

Zuo Menggeng seemed to be prepared and blurted out: "My father, my son thought he could use the reason to kill Han Zanzhou, Liu Chuanzong and other eunuchs, and rectify the court's principles to do the matter of clearing the emperor."

"Han Zanzhou, Liu Chuanzong..."

Zuo Liangyu repeatedly recited these two names, and after a while, he suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, okay! My son's idea is really good! Han Zanzhou is the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse supervisor, and the official of the Neichang factory, which is similar to Wang Zhi, the great eunuch of the power of the year. And Liu Chuanzong, as the eunuch of the Sili Supervisor, is even more comparable to Feng Bao, Wei Zhongxian, Liu Chuanzong, and Han Zanzhou join forces to kill many loyal ministers in Donglin. It is justified by his father to lead the army to clear the king in the name of killing the two rebels!"

Zuo Liangyu has always had a close relationship with the Donglin Party. He felt very uncomfortable when he saw the Donglin Party losing power in the court.

Now that I have the opportunity to retaliate with the excuse of clearing the king, Zuo Liangyu is naturally very happy.

Of course, Zuo Liangyu knew very well that both the inner factory and the east factory were rebuilt today.

The reason why Han Zanzhou and Liu Chuanzong could take on people without any scruples was because they were my son’s approval today.

But Zuo Liangyu must not directly scold him for being stupid today. After all, he does not intend to tear his face apart. He just wants to control the emperor as his puppet and do what Cao Mengde does. Since this is the case, he must have a reasonable reason to win more support.

Killing eunuchs is obviously a good excuse.

Whether it is the Donglin Party, the Chu Party, or the Zhejiang Party, they all have one common enemy, that is, the eunuchs.

The eunuch is a powerful tool used by the emperor to balance the foreign court, and it is also a hawk who monitors his ministers.

No civil servant will feel that it is comfortable to have a sharp sword hanging above his head.

If someone can help them take away this sword, they will definitely support it.

The battle for power is cruel.

Whether the eunuch party is in power or the Donglin party is in power, it will brutally suppress the other party.

When Wei Zhongxian was in power in the court and the country, everyone in the Donglin Party was in danger.

Wei Zhongxian ordered Wang Shaohui, a member of the eunuch party, to compile a list of Donglin party members.

Wang Shaohui also had an idea and referred to the Water Margin model to compile the 108 more famous people in the Donglin Party into the "Donglin Dian General Record".

Rather than saying that this was a complete insult by Wei Zhongxian to the Donglin Party.

Because he can unscrupulously mock the Donglin Party members in the record.

For example, "Tuta Heavenly King Li Sancai, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue of Nanjing", "Tiankui Xing, Timely Rain, Grand Secretary Ye Xianggao", "Tiangang Xing, Jade Qilin, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue of the Ministry of Revenue Zhao Nanxing".

Comparing the imperial officials to the grass-roots green forest can be regarded as the greatest insult.

The Donglin Party members who were included in "Donglin Dianguan Records" could only swallow their anger and pretended not to know.

Later, Chongzhen ascended the throne and Wei Zhongxian fell.

Chongzhen led the eunuch party's rebellion case. Officials involved in the rebellion case were dismissed from office, dismissed from office, and beheaded from office, and everyone was in danger.

Although it was the Emperor Qiangang who decided to rectify the court on the surface, it was the Donglin Party that was pushing it in secret.

The Donglin Party members have been dormant for three years and swallowed their anger for three years, and finally have the opportunity to retaliate.

Once Wei Zhongxian died, the money fell and the tree scattered, and no one could protect the eunuch party officials.

There is revenge, and there is revenge.

The Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party have always been mortal enemies, and they have been attacking each other forever.

Now that the Donglin Party is in decline, if Zuo Liangyu can stand up and raise the banner of counterattacking the eunuch party, he will definitely be supported by officials of the Middle East Forest Party of the North.

Zuo Liangyu had no need to worry at all in the army. He controlled half of the Ming Dynasty's troops and was able to deal with tens of thousands of people including Huang Degong.

All he had to do was to block the long mouths of the people in the world. With the support of the Donglin Party, this was much easier. After all, the Donglin Party controlled the pen, and the white ones could be drawn black, and the black ones could be bleached.

The only problem is that he needs to bring in a civil servant and join him to raise an army from Wuchang to clear the lord.

This candidate is a difficult problem.

Zuo Liangyu thought of three people, one was He Tengjiao, the governor of Huguang, the other was the governor of Caojiang, and the other was Yuan Jixian, the governor of four provinces.

Judging from the official position, Yuan Jixian has the highest official position, followed by He Tengjiao and Hou Xun. But in terms of personal tendencies, Zuo Liangyu wanted to choose He Tengjiao and Hou Xun to cooperate.

The relationship between these two people and him is much better than that of Yuan Jixian.

However, if you go down the river, you can "bring" Yuan Jixian who is stationed in Jiujiang.

After decisive, Zuo Liangyu was about to persuade He Tengjiao and Hou Xun first. As long as they agreed, they would immediately raise an army.

Without further ado, it would be difficult if Li Chuang led his troops to Wuchang before he wanted to leave.
