    The concubines of the Ding family never dreamed that Ding Yunyi would stay with Deng Lianyu at this time. What was even more unexpected was that Ding Yunyi would actually take Deng Lianyu to Quanzhou.

    This is really surprising.  Why did Ding Yunyi, who usually ignored Deng Lianyu, suddenly act out of character?  But Mr. Husband always behaves like a dragon but never sees the end.

    The concubine next to him was fine, but Xiaotu insisted on going to Quanzhou with Ding Yunyi. Ding Yunyi also loved his sister, so he agreed.  He took Deng Lianyu, Xiaotu, and Duan Saner with him. Before leaving, he thought about it and called Gongsun Yue, who had come to Taiwan with him.

    Or, this time I have to send this horsesy effect again

    Deng Lianyu and Xiaotu both came to Quanzhou for the first time and were curious about everything.  As soon as he arrived in Quanzhou, Ding Yunyi stayed at the largest inn in Quanzhou. Not only that, he also generously booked the entire backyard of the inn here.  Ding Yunyi also paid three times the amount of money for the guests who had already stayed in the private room in the backyard, and invited them out politely.

    He also took out the money and asked the shopkeeper to book the best banquet in the best restaurant in Quanzhou. No one knew what he wanted to do.

    Once he settled in, Ding Yunyi let Xiaotu go out to play by himself, but he stayed with Deng Lianyu without even leaving the door. He only asked Duan Saner to go out to inquire about something from time to time.

    Deng Lianyu is also a smart person, and she immediately understood that her husband might not have taken her out specifically to play this time.  But she has truly become Ding Yunyi's woman. No matter what her husband wants her to do, she should just do it.

    The next day arrived.  Duan San'er hurried back: "Sir, here they are, they stayed at Tong'an Inn."

    "Okay!" Ding Yunyi let Duan San'er go out first, and then said to Deng Lianyu: "Madam, do you recognize a man named Zhang Pu?"

    "Zhang Pu?" Deng Lianyu was startled and nodded: "Of course I recognize him, he is from Taicang. He was born as a Jinshi in the fourth year of Chongzhen. He was selected as a commoner and studied hard since he was a child. There is a good story of 'seven records and seven burns'."  The same name as fellow countryman Zhang Cai, collectively known as "Lou Dong Er Zhang". During the Tianqi period, the eunuchs took power, and there were people from the Sixth Cabinet to the governors and governors of all directions who were willing to be Wei Zhongxian's best friends.  Confucian classics, but I plagiarized my ears and painted my eyes. I was lucky enough to get a gun from Yousi, but I couldn't reach the emperor when I ascended the Mingtang Hall. I didn't know how to benefit the people in the long counties and cities, so I contacted people from all over and advocated the revival of ancient learning, which will make it useful in the future, so I established  The Zhang family and my Deng family have been friends for many generations."

    Ding Yunyi felt relieved upon hearing this.  He also knew Zhang Pu. He was an extraordinary figure. Although he was young, he was a true leader of scholars.

    Zhang Pu has been full of passion since he was young, and he succeeded Dong Lin.  Unite like-minded people, organize and preside over the restoration of literati groups, and hope to prop up the crumbling world of the Ming Dynasty with one hand.  At the age of twenty-three, he founded Yingshe in Suzhou, uniting the aspiring literati in Wuzhong; at the age of twenty-six, he angrily wrote "The Tombstones of Five People", with a swaying spirit and awe-inspiring righteousness.  The target of the attack was the eunuchs and corrupt officials of the Ming Dynasty. At the age of 27, he entered Taixue and witnessed the lack of political integrity and the rampant ugliness. He formed the Yantai Society with Beijing literati and wrote a manifesto to expose the crimes of the eunuchs. At the age of 28, he convened the Yinshan Conference.  , at the meeting, Zhang Pu advocated the integration of literati societies from the north and south of the Yangtze River into Fushe, caring about national political affairs and the rise and fall of the nation.  In the sixth year of Chongzhen, 32-year-old Zhang Pu led the alliance to hold the famous Tiger Hill Conference.

    "Thousands of people came by boat and carriage from Shanzuo, Jiangzuo, Jin, Chu, Fujian and Zhejiang."

    He stood on the Thousand People Stone and shouted, and the crowd responded, shocking both the government and the public.

    The members of the Fushe spread almost all over the country, with a total of 3,023 people. The famous literati Chen Zilong, Xia Yunyi, Hou Qizeng, Yang Tingshu, Gu Yanwu, Guizhuang, Lu Shiyi, Qu Shishu, Wen Zhenmeng, etc. are all the backbone of the society. The literati in Suzhou area  Most of them have joined the alliance. Some of them are in the government and some are in the opposition, forming a powerful political force.

    Due to the planning and efforts of Zhang Pu and others, the morale of the literati at that time was greatly boosted.  Sweeping away the scholarly custom of the Ming Dynasty that "I would rather sit back and watch the country decline than to break up the sectarianism", broke the sectarian views, and put the country first. In the days of eunuchship, the young Zhang Pu stood up regardless of the dangers.  He came out, raised his arms and shouted, setting up the banner of making friends through literature, to unite the hearts of scholars all over the world.  At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the struggle between high-ranking officials in the imperial court was fierce, and the academicians were turning around like wheels.

    When Fushe emerged, Zhou Yanru was the first assistant. He was the master who helped Zhang Pu pass the Jinshi examination. Many people in Fushe came from his sect.  Zhou Yanru took advantage of this power.  In fact, Zhou Yanru had no favorable impression of the Donglin Party and Fushe in his heart, and even had some hatred.  Later, Zhou Yanru was dismissed from office and Wen Tiren became the chief minister.  Wen Tiren had long been a thorn in Fushe and Zhang Pumu's side. Under his instruction, his younger brothers Wen Yuren, Wu Bing and others wrote "The Legend of Green Peony", which ridiculed Fushe and deliberately provoked them.  Now that he has become the chief assistant, he will naturally be happy with his grudges.Soon he mobilized his subordinates to wait for an opportunity to frame Zhang Pu and Zhang Cai.

    Zhang Pu won the imperial examination and was awarded a good title. He kept his integrity as an official and was not tolerated by the powerful. He was "disrespected by the important people in power". Wen Tiren and others continued to slander in front of the emperor, and instigated with the minister of punishment of the same party.  Someone concocted "The Chief Evil of Restoring the Society, Chaosing the Rules, Expelling Officials, Killing Cliques, and Defying the Imperial Order", and also wrote "The Ten Major Sins of Restoring the Society" under his own name, saying that Zhang Pu used the name Tianru to compare himself to the sky, and said  Fushe wanted to overthrow the Zongshe, and attached the natural disaster of locusts as being caused by Fushe.

    Fushe was not to be outdone. There were ministers such as Huang Daozhou in the DPRK who sympathized with Fushe. Fushe also gathered "famous people in Yunei" to write "Revelation in the Capital to Prevent Rebellion" to expose the eunuchs. The two sides fought fiercely and were almost evenly matched.

    After this, Wen Tiren was dismissed from office by Emperor Chongzhen.  There is a sentence in the "Ti Zhuang Huitang Collection" written by a contemporary poet: "The legend loves "The Peach Blossom Fan" the most, and whoever sings the Wen family's "Green Peony" can judge his own praise and criticism.

    Zhang Pu and other Fushe members suffered setbacks and thought that as long as they could introduce his teacher Zhou Yanru, they could change the overall situation, so they tried their best to promote the comeback of this old and cunning official.  "Zhang Pu of Taicang is planning a portal, and he has bribed the important people with 200,000 gold. Zhou Yanru has to be summoned again."

    Zhou Yanru's comeback was all due to Zhang Pu's behind-the-scenes activities. At this time, Zhou Yanru took other women as his own in Jiangnan, and Zhang Pu caught him.  Therefore, Zhang Pu "coerced him with several things."  Make it clear: I have used manpower and material resources. If you come back, you must change your previous actions so that you can regain everyone's trust.

    The opportunity was not to be missed, and veteran politician Zhou Yanru agreed.

    Zhou Yanru agreed to re-enter the cabinet, but in order to prevent Zhang Pu from interfering, he pretended to ask Zhang Pu to travel to the south for him.  Looking at the sentiments of the people in various places, Zhang Pu didn't know what the plan was, so he agreed immediately.  I took my two disciples with me to Fujian.

    This man is a famous scholar leader, his words.  To make the world's scholars respond, Ye Yuan knew early in the morning that Zhang Pu had arrived in Fujian, and this was the person he wanted Ding Yunyi to find.

    Zhang Pu did not think highly of military generals, and if Ding Yunyi wanted to successfully meet Zhang Pu, he had to rely on the help of his wife Deng Lianyu.

    Seeing that Deng Lianyu recognized Zhang Pu at this time, Ding Yunyi struck while the iron was hot: "Since he is a family friend of your Deng family and has come to Quanzhou, Lianyu, I want to pay him a visit through your introduction."

    Deng Lianyu was silent for a moment: "I'm afraid your husband didn't really bring me to Quanzhou this time, right?"

    Seeing Ding Yunyi nodded awkwardly.  Deng Lianyu smiled and said: "Actually, my husband has said so. Since Lianyu is your wife, there is nothing that I dare not agree to."

    "Ding Yunyi is in vain to be a villain, just to laugh, to laugh." Ding Yunyi laughed a few times: "I'm going to visit this time. What should I bring?"

    Deng Lianyu thought for a moment: "Zhang Pu likes delicious food and exquisite pastries, and he also likes to enjoy them. Yesterday, I saw that your husband had sent people to prepare a banquet, so let's prepare some pastries."

    Ding Yunyi immediately called Duan Saner in and asked him to prepare pastries, no matter the price, as long as they were exquisite.

    I thought Zhang Pu could use 200,000 taels of silver to recruit Zhou Yanru to be the chief minister of the cabinet.  This guy probably doesn't care much about money.  While waiting for Duan San'er to come back, Deng Lianyu told her husband that Zhang Pu was very particular about his life and was arrogant, and asked her husband to be careful when speaking.

    After waiting there for half an hour, as soon as Duan Saner came back, Ding Yunyi had someone prepare a carriage and arrived at Tong'an Inn.

    After asking Zhang Pu about his room, he came to the door and knocked gently. A voice came from inside, and Deng Lianyu said: "Deng Lianyu from the Deng family in Suzhou came to visit Mr."

    The door opened after a while, and a middle-aged man of thirty-five or six years old came out. When he saw Deng Lianyu, his face was full of surprise: "It is indeed Lianyu, oh, please come in quickly."

    After entering the room, Zhang Pu ordered tea to be served and said: "On the day you got married, I was trying my best to deal with the Wen Ti Ren Wen thief. I really couldn't get out. I have repeatedly confessed to your brother. I heard that you married far away.  When I arrived in Taiwan, this time I came to Fujian. I thought I would go to Taiwan to see you, but I didn¡¯t expect you to come. "

    As he said that, he looked at Ding Yunyi and said, "Who is this?"

    "This is my husband Ding Yunyi."

    "Oh, it turns out it's Deputy Town Ding who has been famous in both the government and the public recently. I've admired him for a long time." Zhang Pu greeted him calmly.

    "Two Loudong Zhangs, headed by Xi Ming. It's my honor to meet Mr. Xi Ming, who is famous all over the world today." Ding Yunyi didn't care at all about his attitude. Instead, he seemed very respectful: "Every time Yun Yi goes to the capital,  At that time, I always heard the name of Mr. Xi Ming. When the Wei Party was so authoritarian and cruel, Mr. Xi Ming was not afraid at all and went on an angry crusade. Not everyone has this kind of courage. Yun Yi always wants to see Mr. Xi Ming personally.  After listening to Mr.¡¯s teachings, I didn¡¯t want it to come true today. I¡¯m so lucky.¡±

    These few wordsAfter saying this, Ding Yunyi suddenly found that his ability to flatter was comparable to Gongsun Yue.

    Zhang Pu was overjoyed after hearing this, established a Fushe, and fought to the death with the eunuchs. This was originally the proudest thing in his life. But now that outsiders say it, his mood is very different.  I just feel that although Ding Yunyi is a military commander, he has this knowledge.

    He smiled slightly at the moment and said: "It's just a false reputation. It cannot be compared with Deputy Town Ding. Is Deputy Town Ding really coming from Taiwan specifically to see me this time?"

    "Really." Ding Yunyi said very seriously: "I heard that Mr. Ximing came to Fujian. I originally wanted to invite him to Taiwan, but when I think about the small place in Taiwan, how can I invite him to such a great talent? So and Lian  After thinking about it, I thought it would be better to come to Quanzhou to see Mr.

    Zhang Pu smiled and nodded. Seeing them bringing pastries, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I don't have any other hobbies. I only like to speak my mind. I still pity you and know me. Come, I'll lend flowers to the Buddha and let's taste them together."

    Ding Yunyi said: "I have something to ask, sir."

    "What's the matter?"

    "Although Tong'an Inn is good, it is still inferior to Quanzhou No. 1 Inn 'Youjianju'"

    Zhang Pu sighed: "I was originally planning to go to the 'Youjian Residence', but who would have thought that all the private rooms there were booked. I had no choice but to choose here."

    "Oh, I have offended sir." Ding Yunyi pretended to suddenly realize: "To be honest with you, sir, in order to welcome your arrival and keep him undisturbed, Yun Yi booked those private rooms, but who would have thought that you would offend him."

    Zhang Pu was greatly surprised, and then he laughed again: "I see, that's it. Zhang Pu is just a scholar, how can he be such a deputy commander?"

    "Sir, please don't say that." Ding Yunyi became more and more respectful: "Yun Yi is just a man of force. How can a brave man compare to sir? He is the real talent who can stabilize the country!"

    Zhang Pu became more and more happy, and Ding Yunyi hurriedly said: "Sir, if you are willing, please come with me to 'have a residence'."

    Zhang Pu thought for a moment and felt that the other party was sincere and respectful to him. In addition, Deng Lianyu was also persuading him, so he agreed.

    Seeing that Zhang Pu agreed, Ding Yunyi immediately asked Duan San and Zhang Pu's disciples to prepare and salute together, and then asked Zhang Pu to go out and get on the carriage.

    As soon as he arrived at "Youjianju", Ding Yunyi invited Zhang Pu down, went to the private room in the backyard, and shouted: "Gongsun Yue, come out quickly to greet the guests, the great talent from Suzhou has arrived!"

    I originally thought that a flatterer like Gongsun Yue would immediately come out to show off his "Kung Fu". Who would have thought that Gongsun Yue walked out lazily with a look of disdain: "Deputy Town, where are the great talents in Suzhou? In my opinion,  Most of them are people with false reputations.¡±

    As soon as he heard what Gongsun Yue said, Ding Yunyi was furious and was about to explode when he suddenly heard Gongsun Yue say again: "Except for Mr. Zhang Ximing, the first of the two Loudong Zhangs, he is a real talent in the world and worthy of Gongsun Yue.  Serving in front of the saddle and behind the horse, the rest are not worth mentioning. "

    Zhang Pu smiled, and Ding Yunyi sweatdropped.  I thought my ability to flatter him was pretty good, but who would have thought that compared with Gongsun Yue, who had already known that he was receiving Zhang Pu today, he would be really dwarfed by the big one.

    This flatterer is really calm and composed.

    "Don't be rude." Ding Yunyi's face darkened: "You are a scholar after all, how can you say such outrageous words? Who is this person standing in front of you? He is Mr. Xi Ming!"

    "Ah, Mr. Ximing is really here!" (This siteyour support is my biggest motivation.)
