New Shun 1730

"Go together! Go together!"

As a child of a noble family, you still have some privileges. The more privileges you have, the more courage you will have. Just think of it as just making trouble out of boredom, and it's just a small fine at most, so it's no big deal.

A group of people who participated in the fight that day followed Liu Yu. They took advantage of the opportunity to get out of school and did not avoid taboo places. They walked in groups all the way to Dongjiangmi Lane.

Historically, this was the humiliating embassy district of Dongjiao Minxiang. Because the Grand Canal transported rice from the south, northerners called glutinous rice Jiangmi, so it was now called Jiangmi Lane.

The Rite Government's ministry hall is nearby, and next to it is a Catholic church that is about the same size as Xuanwumen Church.

Those who rebelled in the late Ming Dynasty were relatively tolerant of Catholicism and foreign knowledge, whether they were Li or Zhang. The church in Mixiang, Dongjiang was built by Li Leisi, who originally preached in Sichuan and later joined Zhang Xianzhong.

Zhang Xianzhong, who was recorded as a murderer and a lunatic, used very sober logic to educate the missionaries: You locals don’t believe this, but your astronomy and mathematics are quite good. When I win the throne, you can go back and do more astronomy. The so-called "I will send you and others back home. At that time, you and others sent many astronomical scholars and astronomical books to China..."

Later, Zhang Xianzhong died unexpectedly. Sun Kewang and other adopted sons forged a will and killed all Zhang Xianzhong's biological heirs. Later, Li Dingguo and others joined forces to resist the Qing Dynasty. These missionaries followed into Beijing and were given a building near Dongjiang Mixiang. Church——For Dashun, the merit lies in Because these missionaries recorded Zhang Xianzhong's accidental death, which actually did not leave a testament, Sun Kewang took all the blame. The Great Western Army Alliance was essentially disintegrated because of the revelation of this incident, and he took the blame. Take the blame, wash away the blame, separate and use.

Later, Li Leisi translated the "Sacred Canon of the Mass" into Chinese, hoping to sing the Mass in Chinese, so he was labeled a heretic by the Vatican. Liu Yu's family is also very close to these people. When Liu Yu learned Latin, he also found people in the church here, not at Xuanwumen Church.

People often come and go here. As soon as he walked here, an acquaintance popped up and asked, "Where are you going?"

“Go and beat the Denwen drum!”

He smiled and said hello to the acquaintance next to him, and his greeting immediately attracted more people to watch the fun.

Several guards in front of the Li Government Hall were startled when they saw so many people. When they saw that the leaders were all heirs of the Duke's family, they felt relieved when they heard that they were going to beat the drums. .

He gave guidance very considerately: "Young gentlemen, please visit Xijiangmi Lane. Don't be like this when you pass Zhengyang Gate. Don't make any noise, otherwise it will be difficult for us to do it."

I thanked him with my hand, and when I passed Zhengyang Gate, the group of people all behaved honestly and didn't make much noise. The Boy Army guarding there asked a few questions, then ignored them and sent a few people to follow the group.

The commotion reached Xijiangmi Lane, avoiding the Dali Temple and leaving the administrative offices of the criminal government. Then we arrived at the Metropolitan Procuratorate. We found the Dengwen drum that had fallen a lot of dust and started beating it.

The censors on the left and right did not sit in court. The one who was really in charge was the censor of Zuo Qiandu, a fourth-rank official.

I was startled when I heard the sound of drums outside. If the Dengwen drum in front of the Procuratorate were to sound, it would be no small matter. I hurriedly slipped out to take a look, and my head suddenly felt heavy.

The leader is Liu Yu, who is in the limelight this year, and I have seen him before.

The few at the back are all the heirs of the Duke's family, and some of them are wearing the uniforms of the Wude Palace students, which are all blue.

Dashun calls himself Shui De. As soon as he looks at the blue color, he knows that he is not easy to mess with.

Censor Zuo Qiandu was not blind to what was happening outside the window. He didn't know about the fight between the Imperial College and Wude Palace a few days ago.

Now this is a muddy water, everyone wants to make peace with it, and there is no way to deal with it: if you deal with the Imperial College students, the various academic societies will definitely denounce it; if you deal with Liu Yu, the emperor and military generals will definitely be dissatisfied.

He never expected that this group of people would come here to make a fuss. He beat the drum and pretended not to hear, but he couldn't. He only regretted that he didn't have a stomachache or a cold today.

In the previous dynasty, the Metropolitan Procuratorate did not have officials or military attachés, but in the new dynasty, there were people from the Wude Palace in the Metropolitan Procuratorate who were responsible for the elegant administration.

Zuo Qiandu Yushi knew that today's matter could not be settled by sending a small official such as a secretary. At least Liu Yu still had the official status of a military guard, so he had no choice but to run out.

The formality of business matters still needs to be done.

But if I don't want to take the case, I can only try my best to persuade it. Once it is promoted to court, this matter will stick to me.

Thinking about it, I know that this group of people must be used to being domineering. Although they beat everyone in the Imperial College a few days ago and did not suffer any loss, they still feel unhappy. Now that they have not dealt with it, they have come here to complain.

Bite the bullet and come out.

"What grievances do you have?"

Liu Yu didn't need to kneel down, the others also shouted in unison.

"It's not us who are wronged, it's the students of the Imperial College who are wronged. We are here to plead guilty."

"ah?"

Zuo Qiandu Yushi thought his ears were broken, so he asked his subordinates next to him. The subordinates also looked shocked. It took him a long time to use his eyes to indicate that Qiandu Yushi had heard correctly.

What they really said was, "It's not us who are wronged, but the people in the Imperial College who are wronged."

"Uh...this..."

Just when he was about to say a few more words, he saw that Liu Yu had already taken out the "paper" from his arms. Looking at the thickness, Yushi Zuoqiandu knew that something was going on today.

The people from Wude Palace fight with the people from the Imperial College every few days. Will they come to avenge the people from the Imperial College?

Let’s not talk about this. Zuo Qiandu Yushi is also a shrewd person. When he saw the gloating expressions of this group of people, he knew that there was no injustice in this. It was clearly looking for trouble.

The petition was so thick and it had been written. If they were not looking for trouble, then they were really seeing a ghost.

When his subordinates handed over the "petition" written by Liu Yu and signed by a group of students from Wude Palace, Zuo Qiandu Yushi just glanced at it and suddenly felt his eyes black. He thought to himself that I said my eyelids were always twitching this morning, and I should have knocked myself unconscious with a hammer yesterday!

This is not a complaint, this is clearly a joint petition to find trouble...

The drum for hearing has also been struck. Even if this case is just a trivial matter, it must be sent up, directly to the emperor.

If it is sent to the emperor, who knows how big a thing it will cause.

The fight between the Imperial College and Wude Palace has made many people in the court anxious.

Although the matter is not big, the impact is too great. If it is not handled properly, it will be a big trouble. At the least, it will be a "tyrant" and at the worst, it will be a "Jie Zhou".

If this is handed over at this time, wouldn't it be adding fuel to the fire?

The Left Censor-in-Chief was also a soldier who fought his way through the single-plank bridge. He was well-informed and could read ten lines at a glance. He quickly glanced through the "petition" and was inexplicably horrified.

After a brief glance, he had already guessed all the consequences, thinking that this was like throwing a thunder bomb into the stove.

He secretly moved his buttocks, shook off the sweat on his back, and had to say: "I have accepted this petition. You can go back. The Censorate has a case. Once the drum for reporting is sounded, it will naturally be reported to the emperor. Don't worry, even if you have..."

"Sir, it is not us who have grievances, but the students of the Imperial College who have grievances. After we reflect on it, we think what they say makes a lot of sense, and we can't help but speak up for them."

"Uh... yes, yes. Yes. I know. Since you have all signed and sealed, then go back."

Waving his hand to signal this group of plague gods to get out quickly, Liu Yu knew that the matter had already been made, so he stopped making trouble. After saluting, he led his men away.

He went straight to the nearby wine shop to arrange a banquet, completely ignoring those who followed to watch the excitement and felt that this excitement was meaningless.

…………

In the Forbidden City, the court meeting had ended, Li Gan was reviewing the memorials, and the eunuchs sent another batch over.

The top one looked a few fingers thick, and Li Gan was stunned.

He had seen many nonsense memorials, but this was the first time he had seen one on the top.

Picking up the memorial, he asked, "Whose thick memorial is this?"

"Your Majesty, many students of Wude Palace, led by Liu Yu, went to the Censorate to beat the drum. According to the ancestral system, the drum should be placed on the top."

Hearing that it was another matter between Liu Yu and Wude Palace, Li Gan was a little angry.

He had heard about the fight a few days ago.

Liu Yu was blamed for such a big crime, but he almost got beaten.

Being an emperor also depends on closeness and distance. He originally wanted Liu Yu to go back to hide from the limelight, and pass the Wude Palace summer exam and the Shangshe autumn exam quietly, and then use him to do some big things after he was legitimate.

The students of the Imperial Academy came out to beat people, but the reason for beating people was extremely just. The emperor also knew that the trend of forming social organizations to discuss politics has been increasing in recent years. He did not want to bear the blame, so he thought about dealing with this matter coldly.

The Luosha Kingdom delegation is coming soon, and the matter of Junggar needs to be discussed carefully. At this time, the emperor really doesn't want to cause any trouble.

The matter of Junggar will definitely be difficult to handle without discussing it with Luosha Kingdom.

Liu Yu also said that there is a group of Mongols from the Wala tribe in the hinterland of Luosha Kingdom. These things must be solved. The Western Regions must be taken back. This is not a question of whether to restore the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties, but it is directly related to the stability of the northern border in the future.

Because of the Yellow Sect, Dashun must deal with the Western Regions.

If the Western Regions are unstable, the Snow Mountain will be unstable; if the Snow Mountain is unstable, Mongolia will be unstable.

Among the remaining Wala tribes, the only one that has the ability to threaten Qinghai and the Snow Mountain is the Junggar tribe. The rest of the tribes can't fly to the Snow Mountain.

The Junggar tribe was promoted to the Khanate in the past, and there was arable land in the Western Regions. Nomadism would not be able to flourish without arable land. Li Gan knew this clearly.

If the Western Regions were not taken, the snow-capped mountains would always be a threat.

There were also Mongolian tribes on the Luosha side. With the snow-capped mountains in hand, the initiative to deal with Luosha in the future would be in his own hands.

The current religious leader of the Snow Region is Cangyang Gyatso. He was caught in the middle and was the son of a serf. He had no foundation and was a person who could be manipulated.

The war against Luosha was originally to promote peace through war. The original idea was to use the Heilongjiang River as the boundary.

Liu Yu relied on the conflicts with the Western countries to deceive Luosha, expanded the territory by 3,000 miles, and sold the Torghut Kalmyks privately, which was equivalent to completely breaking up Mongolia. This was indeed a great achievement.

But these dirty deeds cannot be brought to the surface. It is not good to say that the imperial court and Luocha divided Mongolia, and both sides crushed the Mongolian tribes together; it is even more impossible to say that the Torghut was sold in the secret agreement, at least temporarily.

Three hundred thousand taels rushed to sign the contract, and Liu Yu was so angry that a Luocha earl died. These things cannot be said.

The Imperial College beat Liu Yu and Liu Yu beat him back. Li Gan also knew it.

Fining Liu Yu twenty taels of silver was already a gesture.

Li Gan thought that Liu Yu should understand what he meant. He was also very smart on weekdays. He kept quiet and hid for a while. He would talk about his business after the storm passed and the Luocha delegation left.

But today Liu Yu actually brought people to beat the drum to report? This is really...

Li Gan thought that the group of people in the Imperial College had not experienced the real thing, and they were righteous and formed a society to discuss. How do you want me to deal with them? The atmosphere of the country in recent years has been like this, advancing but not retreating. The battle against Junggar has not been completed yet. How can I pour cold water on this atmosphere at this time?

Whether to go to Southeast Asia as you said in the future is another matter. But if Junggar is not destroyed, it is impossible to let the horses go to the south mountain to play with literature and martial arts. Let's talk about the future later.

If you behave yourself at this time, you will have your own benefits in the future, but why are you so blind?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He picked up the things sent by the Censorate and opened them angrily.

After a few glances, Li Gan was stunned for a moment.

Then he laughed.
