Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 204 Comeback
Ruan Dacheng hurriedly changed his clothes, and then went out, he didn't have time to put on his shoes.

Under the courtyard corridor, a beautiful woman in her 30s came slowly and gracefully. Wearing a silk skirt on her body, she looked extraordinarily elegant and intellectual. The decent tailoring set off her figure very well. The whole person was like a blooming gardenia Zihua, she is Ruan Lizhen, the daughter of Ruan Dacheng.

She is a beauty full of the temperament of the Jiangnan water town, and she is also a talented woman who is famous in the south of the Yangtze River. Because she was exposed to the drama at home since she was a child, she grew up to become a famous opera artist.The script he wrote was also named Zao Jiangnan.

Perhaps it was because Ruan Dacheng deceived his master and exterminated his ancestors and betrayed Donglin all his life, and was shamelessly cursed by scholars, so Ruan Dacheng had no children.

Ruan Dacheng originally adopted Ruan Yiding as his heir to his childless uncle Ruan Yiding.As a result, he was sixty in a blink of an eye, and he also had no heirs, only one daughter.

I had to raise a nephew as a grandson.

Ruan Lizhen married Cao Taiwang, the son of Guanglu Shaoqing Cao Luji, who was the same year as Ruan Dacheng's hometown in Tongcheng, and had several children. However, because her husband had a bad reputation in the forest, the husband and wife didn't get along well, and the quarrel reached the point of reconciliation. Simply move back to her natal family.

Today, she was playing the piano and composing poems with a few cousins, talking about script creation, and talking about rising, so she came to ask her father for advice.

Several young Ruan girls are also beautiful and moving.

"Father!"

Ruan Dacheng was not in the mood to chat with his favorite daughter at the moment, he waved his hands as he walked, "I have something urgent to go out for my father, let's talk about it later."

Ruan Lizhen couldn't help being surprised when she saw her father in a hurry. In her impression, her father always looked calm and calm, why was he in such a hurry today.

"What's the matter, third uncle?"

The butler then told the story of the amazing thing that had just happened.

Lu Jianguo led the imperial camp to Fuyang, raised his sword and beheaded Nanbo Fang Guoan in person, incorporated Fang Guoan's tribe, and then ordered the Yulin Army to spread to Shaoxing, Tokyo, and issued an order to remove Fang Fengnian from his post as a bachelor.

Ruan Lizhen was also shocked by the news.

She knew very well that her father had a close relationship with Fang Guoan and Fang Fengnian, and she even vaguely knew what her father was planning recently. Now that Fang Guoan had an accident, she was very worried that her father would be implicated.

The little girls of the Ruan family turned pale with anxiety. The current situation has been turbulent for the past few years, and they have also experienced a lot of ups and downs. They have seen many famous ladies, but they have been reduced to dust.

"Go back first, don't worry, nothing will happen." Ruan Lizhen comforted her sisters.

······
Ruan Dacheng hurried out, got into the carriage and drove to the yamen.

Lu Jianguo raised righteousness in Taizhou and called himself Jianguo. At first he was based in Taizhou, and later he decided to move in Shaoxing in Tokyo.

There have been obvious changes in the streets of Shaoxing City.

The news has been spread throughout the city, and everyone is shocked.

Along with Fang Guoan's leader came to Shaoxing, as well as Lu Jianguo's imperial battalion pro-Habayashi army. After they entered Shaoxing, they quickly took over the city defense of Shaoxing's various gates.

Wang Zhiren, Governor of the Beijing Camp, also received the order, and Shaoxing was immediately put under martial law.

The [-]th Battalion of the Fifth Army Battalion cooperated with the Habayashi Army and began to arrest people.

Ruan Dacheng rushed to the yamen and found that many officials had already gathered here, including cabinet ministers and eunuchs who were in charge of ceremonies, and even Zhang Guojun, the commander of Jinyiwei, was there.

Everyone has serious expressions on their faces.

When everyone saw Ruan Dacheng coming, they just had a cold face. Most people still hated Ma and Ruan, especially those who were born in Donglin. They always regarded Ruan Dacheng as a traitor. Attached to the eunuch, I have sworn to be at odds with him long ago.

Ruan Dacheng went straight to Ma Shiying, "Brother Yaocao, what's going on?"

During the trip in Shaoxing, Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng were good brothers who shared weal and woe. He was from Guizhou.Compared with Ruan Dacheng, Ma Shiying's official career was very smooth at first. He was first appointed as the head of the Nanjing household department. In Tianqizhong, he successively served as the prefect of Yanzhou, Henan, and Datong. Capital censor and governor Xuanfu.

But just one month after he took office, he was exposed by the guarding eunuch for embezzling thousands of public funds and bribing the dignitaries in the court, and he was dismissed from office and exiled.At that time, Ma Shiying was originally a member of the Donglin Party. When he was demoted, the Donglin Party claimed that it was a framed by the Eunuch Party and defended him.

Later, Ma Shiying lived in Nanjing, and met again in the same year with Ruan Dacheng, who was well-known and well-connected in the south of the Yangtze River. The two frustrated people got along very well.

Although Ruan Dacheng was listed as a rebellious party and could not be reused, he had a wide relationship with the court and China. After some operations, he donated tens of thousands of dollars to help the Donglin Party and Fushe to help Zhou Yanru join the cabinet.

Zhou Yanru wanted to repay Ruan Dacheng after becoming the first assistant, but because Ruan was hated by Donglin, Ruan Dacheng finally asked Zhou Yanru to help Ma Shiying come back. Ma Shiying naturally remembered this great kindness after he successfully recovered.

So later, Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, led the four towns in Jiangbei to support King Fu, and after becoming the first hero of the Hongguang Dynasty, he spared no effort to recommend Ruan Dacheng to come back.

The two shared weal and woe, and they were both heroes of Dong Lin, but later they both became eunuchs and traitors.

After arriving in Shaoxing, the two frustrated people could only hug each other to keep warm.

Ma Shiying, who used to be the chief assistant of the Hongguang Dynasty, sighed to Ruan Dacheng, "Something has happened, Fang Guoan was killed by the prison, and Fang was dismissed every year."

"How could this be?" Although Ruan Dacheng and Ma Shiying have bad reputations, compared with most of the Donglin Party who claim to be honest and gentlemen, they are the kind of people who are more capable of doing things. The government did not have any merits. Hong Guangchao's rapid demise was an inescapable crime for the two of them, but with the grassroots team at that time, who was still busy with internal fighting, no one could do anything and turn the tide.

Just like the very loyal Shi Kefa's supervisor Jiangbei, although he is full of loyalty, he supervises Jiangbei and cannot command the warlords of the four towns. He has no feasible way to resist the Qing Dynasty and defend the Huaihe River. The city died together, and it was nothing more than serving the country with death.

Ma Shiying pulled Ruan Dacheng aside, "There are more than ten serious crimes in the state security supervision, the most important one is treason."

"Hey, in fact, I think it's because Fang Guoan secretly found out what happened to the King of Yiyang. He didn't listen to advice and was too domineering, but he didn't look at who he was facing. Jian Guo is not Emperor Sheng'an, he It's not Zuo Liangyu and Jiangbei Four Towns, who don't have that capital."

"The fate of the separated corpses that fell here is also self-inflicted." Although Ma Shiying joined Fang Guoan's army from the city of Hangzhou and spent a long time together, Fang Guoan's behavior was indeed self-inflicted.

Lu Jianguo is so powerful, he didn't know how to restrain himself, instead he changed his nature, and now he was beheaded with a sword by Lu Jianguo himself, who is to blame.

Ruan Dacheng felt that his hands and feet were always cold, but he shivered slightly on a hot day in July.

"It's becoming more and more unpredictable to supervise the country's actions."

Ma Shiying is quite calm, "I think there are traces of Jian Guo's actions. This is the master of ZTE. He is decisive. He can tolerate King Yiyang, King Tongcheng and others calling Jian Guo and emperor. King Jingjiang Also known as Jian Guo, but he was imprisoned to death for instigating a civil war, and King Yiyang was even ordered to attack him."

"Chen Wu was killed, and Huang Binqing was able to survive after handing over Zhoushan. These are actually obvious."

Fang Guoan refused to truly accept the edict of the supervisor, refused to accept the reorganization, Lu Jianguo couldn't tolerate it, taking advantage of this time to return, a black tiger took his life out of his heart.

Fang Fengnian resigned because Fang Guoan once recognized him as his adoptive father, and the two had a close correspondence in private letters, and it is said that these letters have now fallen into the hands of Jian Guo.

"Will Fang Fengnian be dismissed or sent to prison?" Ruan Dacheng asked for details.

"The decree of the supervisory state, to give Fang Fengnian some dignity, and let him beg for his own bones to become an official."

Ruan Dacheng was quite surprised by these results, "Just let him resign and become an official? Didn't he go to jail?"

"No, Fang Guoan conspired against him, but Fang Fengnian only asked him to resign himself, and did not pursue liquidation. He even added Shaofu and Zhu Guo, and made a special decree that he would still receive full salary after he became an official, and ordered his two grandchildren to be recruited. Walk in front of the imperial court and listen."

"His Royal Highness, the other party is really generous." Ruan Dacheng sighed, ordinary people involved in Fang Guoan's case, if it were Chongzhen or Hongguang, it would be impossible for him to get out of his body, and he must be implicated and killed.

"It is said that His Highness said that Fang Fengnian was on a hunger strike in Shaoxing City to wait to die, and was about to die for the country. Zheng Zunqian rescued him during the Shaoxing Uprising. The State Supervisor said that he, Liu Gong, Qi Gong, etc. were all loyal ministers of the country. Now he has made some mistakes, but The crime is not worthy of death, so give him some dignity."

Ruan Dacheng didn't know whether to say that Jian Guo was cruel or benevolent.

Over there, Fang Guoan, a dignified general, was still Bo Zhennan, but he killed him as soon as he said he wanted to kill him, and he went to kill him himself, but here Fang Fang was pardoned every year, and he was added to the young Fu to become an official, with full salary for the elderly, and his grandson was hired.

"Fang Guoan was killed, did his subordinates make trouble? Does His Highness plan to use Fang Fengnian to appease Fang Guoan's people?" Ruan Dacheng asked. After all, Fang Fengnian's hometown is from Yanzhou, and he is Fang Guoan's adoptive father. If there are many Fang Guoan ministries, it will have a good effect and avoid turmoil.

"Maybe." Ma Shiying said, he is also a person who is sitting on the bench now, and the news he knows is basically public.

Ruan Dacheng said, "We have also stayed in Fang Guo'an's army for a while, and we are familiar with the generals of the Fang Department. Why don't we take this opportunity to write a letter to the Supervisor of the State, and invite ourselves to appease the Fang Department?"

Ma Shiying was taken aback for a moment, then narrowed his eyes slightly.

This is really an opportunity, if they can do this well, then it can be regarded as showing their ability and attitude in front of Jian Guo.

"Thanks to Brother Ruan for reminding me, hurry up and write the memorial."

"Well, let's play together." Ruan Dacheng said. Anyway, since the Hongguang Dynasty, the two have been inseparable from Ruan, and Ruan has been inseparable from horses.

Ma Shiying said excitedly, "I also served as the magistrate in Yanzhou for several years. I think I am familiar with Yanzhou, and I also know a little about the Ministry of the Ministry. I will do my part."

Ruan Dacheng stroked his beard, "Go together, even if you become the magistrate of Yanzhou and I am a fellow magistrate, it's better than staying in this industry all day and sitting on the bench."
