Once the abscess is formed, the fastest way to heal it is to squeeze it out.

The conflicts that had accumulated for two years in Shaoxing Prefecture were completely triggered.

This is a struggle between civil and military, new and old, about the concept of governance and the division of interests.

It has nothing to do with foreign enemies, and there is no need to cover up. Its essence is an internal strife.

The root of this internal strife came from the previous dynasty, from the Chongzhen Dynasty to the Hongguang Dynasty.

There was no outbreak before, but because of the strong pressure from foreign enemies, many people could only unite and fight against the enemy together.

Despite this, there was also a dispute over military strength between Fang Guoan and Wang Zhiren, and the two of them joined forces to fight with Chinese ministers in the court.

Now, after Wu Zheng's sudden rise, a new force has been added.

For example, Xia Wanchun and other rebels, Qian's uncle and nephew, joined the Northern Expedition, and surrendered to Wu Zheng, and surrendered to Wu Zheng's straitors.

Although these forces have their own demands, they have formed a force at this juncture and become a powerful force that cannot be underestimated, for the new forces.

They were originally vassals of the previous two forces, such as the Qian family's uncle and nephew.

Or the anti-Qing rebels who have been wandering abroad, such as Xia Wanchun's army.

Or they are idle people who are not qualified to intervene in power struggles, such as surrendering troops.

But at this moment, they have a representative of common interests, that is Wu Zheng.

Under the name Wu Zheng, they have the reason to unite and they have the power to express their demands.

They have to fight, to fight for the rights they think should belong to them.

A major chaos finally emerged in front of Hongwu Gate.

At least all four people formed a confrontation. Although they had not yet drawn their swords, it was impossible for tens of thousands of troops and hundreds of thousands of people to mix together without casualties.

This is a tragedy, an inevitable tragedy.

Of course, if Wu Zheng was there, the intensity might be weaker, but it would not be possible to stop it.

Wu Zheng is at best a representative of interests for the new forces, binding and has no complete control.

He could command various troops to fight against the Qing army, but he could not curb the demands of all parties for their interests.

If forced suppression is carried out, a mutiny will break out or fall apart.

This is also the reason why Wu Zheng was depressed and lost control of drinking and crying in front of his uncle's grave.

An outsider was less than twenty years old and spent more than a year on combat. But the problem was that the war had temporarily stopped. Wu Zheng found out that the court was still the same court, and the officials were still the same group of officials. No one responded to his Northern Expedition strategy with singular voices, and some of them moved north in unison.

Moving north is beyond refutation or blame.

Since Nanjing has been restored, the court should naturally return to face the sound and see.

But Wu Zheng knew very well that the purpose of these high-ranking people moving north was nothing more than to absorb the benefits that were far beyond Shaoxing Prefecture in Nanjing and then divide them up.

Maybe Zhu Ma is not, Qian Sule is not, Zhang Huangyan, Xiong Rulin, Sun Jiaji and others are not, but they cannot have an impact on the entire court.

Those people are old and have high experience. Whenever they have a demand, they must quote the scriptures and stand at the highest point of morality, which makes you unable to refute.

Just like Wu Zheng was assassinated in Pinggang Mountain Village, although this aroused the desire of Zheng Uncle to protect his master, it represented the collective appeal of a large group of people.

Wu Zheng would not be stupid and did not notice the darkness behind this matter.

The assassination was indeed instructed by Uncle Zheng, but Wu Zheng was assassinated, but in the area controlled by the imperial court, the one who was in charge of Zhu Meiyu's personal guards was not in charge of the place, but the 10,000 Ming troops who retreated from Fenghui to Pinggang Mountain.

Their control lies in the Ministry of War, not Liao Zhongping.

Things are obvious, but the results are self-evident.

In other words, from the time Uncle Zheng ordered the personal guard officers to the officers, to the time when the officers appointed soldiers to take action, and then the Ming army did not respond at all, this shows that there were many people who helped the assassination case, at least by default or ignored it.

How can this not make Wu Zheng feel upset?

How to prevent Wu Zheng from being tired?

In front of my uncle's tomb, I just vented my resentment and hatred in my heart, and my helplessness in the current situation.

The confrontation in front of Hongwu Gate lasted until the early morning of the next day.

More and more people gradually calmed down, and they began to realize that they were just ants that could only be trampled to death at any time in this chaos.

They no longer believe that they are the people under the feet of the emperor. They began to abandon the sense of superiority that they had not possessed before. They began to lick their wounds and evacuate on their own initiative.

As the people evacuated, a large area was empty in front of Hongwu Gate.

At this time, the people from all directions finally thought of discussing to resolve the farce.

In front of Hongwu Gate, on a small platform built in a hurry, Chen Zilong and others were all in Hongru, as well as Wang Zhiren, Qian's uncle and nephew, Xia Wanchun and more than a dozen powerful figures sat in a circle.

Of course, with Wang Zhiren's identity as Duke Xing and holding the greatest military power of Yingtian Prefecture, Wang Zhiren sat in the main position with a worthy reputation.

From arguing each other for mobilizing the army without authorization to arguing with each other who is the emperor.

Wang Zhiren kept closing his eyes and listening, not even moving the corners of his mouth.

When everyone was thirsty and asked Wang Zhiren to make a statement about closing the case.

Wang Zhiren finally opened his eyes, and he swept the audience coldly, "Support the new king? Do you have the qualifications to do this?"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

In particular, the Hongru, led by Chen Zilong, jumped up and said, "Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. What's more, we are all officials in the Ming Dynasty..."

Wang Zhiren sneered lightly and said with a sarcastic sarcasm: "The Ming Dynasty was destroyed two years ago. If you really want to say it, the court is just a remnant Ming court. Everyone in the world knows this, but you pretend not to know it, but you just humiliate yourself."

These were like poking a hornet's nest. More than a dozen heroes jumped and pointed at Wang Zhiren and cursed.

Although Wang Zhiren's parents did not involve them, words such as "arrogance", "arrogance", "traitor", "swallower" and other words are filled with their ears.

Wang Zhiren closed his eyes again and listened to their scolding.

At this time, Xia Wanchun suddenly stood up and said, "Sir, please calm down. In the opinion of the students, you must wait for the Jinghai Hou to welcome the Superintendent to the city and discuss it together. Otherwise, even if we agree here, we may be working behind closed doors and just laughing."
