When Yu Ren was tearing the contract, he wanted to stop him, but he was one step late. Seeing that the contract turned into a pile of pieces of paper in a blink of an eye, Yu Ren couldn't help but sigh. He had a bad premonition and always felt that something was going to happen.

Wu Gang didn't say anything, but just glanced at Yu Ren with resentment. Then, he turned around and left.

Three days later, Yu Ren was in the deserted garden by the river and Hu Zi and others to make the final breakthrough for this new generation of sea ship that was about to be born. A person they had never expected suddenly appeared.

This person is not someone else, but Yu Ren’s father Yu Yuangan.

When Yu Yuangan saw Yu Ren, he cursed, "You are a troublemaker. You are asking you to study at home. You have to run out and hang out with them. Now that I'm going to have such a big disaster, I'm afraid our Yu family will not be able to stay in Nanjing from now on!"

Yu Ren first saw his father suddenly appear here, which was a big surprise. Then he heard what his father said, and he became even more puzzled.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"You still have the face to ask what you are asking? Don't you know what you did? People have already put your memorials on your account to the emperor!"

Yu Ren was confused when he heard this, but he still didn't know what his father was talking about.

"What's wrong?" Yu Ren finally couldn't help but ask again.

"I'll ask you, what did you do three days ago?" Yu Yuangan said angrily, not even looking at the bowl of rough tea brought by Hu Zi.

"Three days ago?" Yu Ren was shocked when he heard this.

Three days ago, wasn’t it the day when they fought with Qian Si? Could it be that Qian Si sued them? There is no reason! Qian Si was unreasonable first! He brought someone to the door to collect taxes, and then the fight started! Yu Ren thought.

Suddenly, he thought of someone.

Could it be him?

"Is it that Wu Gang?" Yu Ren snatched.

"You haven't forgotten at last!" Yu Yuangan said, sitting on the pile of wood next to him.

"Do you know who Wu Gang is? He is the nephew of the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel in Nanjing. You tore up the contract in his hands that day, and after he returned home, he told his uncle Wu Jianxu about it.

Wu Jianxu wrote a special memorial that night, saying that I was not strict in my education, and I made friends with private parties, and forced the people to seize wealth. Then, he handed the copy of this memorial to the Secretary of the Ministry of Rites."

Yu Ren finally figured it out. It turned out that Wu Gang was the one who did it.

"But, his contract is fake!" Tian Jia interrupted.

Yu Yuan glared at Tian Jia. He had no good feelings for these young people who led his son to not follow the right path. "How do you know that his contract is fake? The garden you are using now was bought by Wu Gang three years ago. Haven't you seen that contract with a vermilion seal on it?"

When Yu Ren heard his father talk about it, he recalled that there seemed to be such an official seal on the contract. It seemed that he was too lazy to do things by himself. The trouble caused by this was really a big deal. However, he knew that Wu Gang would not sue Hu Zi and others, nor would he complain to Liu Xi, who did not complain to him, but instead sued Yu Ren, who had the least connection with the matter. It was obvious that his purpose was not just for this contract.

"Dad, let's go back and discuss this matter again! See if you can come up with any good solutions!" Yu Ren didn't want Hu Zi and the others to worry too much.

Yu Yuangan didn't say a word, and then walked away with his foot. Yu Ren lowered his head and followed behind.

"Brother Ren, this matter is caused by me. I'll take responsibility!" Liu Xi chased after Yu Ren and said.

Yu Ren glanced at the father walking in front and quietly said to Liu Xi and Hu Zi who was catching up with him. Tian Jia said, "It's useless. This Wu Gang was obviously not for you. They wanted to use this matter to attack me. Even if you stand up, it would be useless to take things into account. Instead, it would involve more people.

You don't have to worry about this matter. I have a way to solve it. As long as you do these two boats well and don't have to worry about anything else. Qian Si was beaten last time, it's unlikely that he would dare to cause trouble for you again. Just just build your boat with peace of mind. I'm afraid that I won't have much time to care about you, and everything depends on you."

After saying that, Yu Ren quickly took a few steps and caught up with his father who had already left him behind.

Along the way, neither of the father and son spoke. They just arrived at home all the way.

Until dinner, Yu Yuangan didn't say a word. He seemed to be thinking about a certain problem.

Yu Ren knew that his father must be thinking about how to solve the current crisis.

"Dad, why don't I go find a friend! This is not a big deal. I think it should be able to settle the situation!"

Yu Yuangan snorted coldly, "Are you talking about your friends in the Donglin Party? Do you think they will help us? If I guessed it well, they would never get involved in this matter. Not only will they not help, but they can not follow the trend, but it is already very good to participate in your father's book."

"No way?" Yu Ren was a little disbelief.

Yu Yuangan put down his chopsticks, looked around, led his son to the study room, and then solemnly closed the door. Then he said to him, "Do you think they are all good people? If you don't believe it, just look at it."

Their Donglin Party members were all over the government and the people. Although they had not been in power for nearly two or three years, they were limited to high positions. In the entire government and the people, the Donglin Party is still the largest party in the world. It is impossible for them to know that Wu Jianxu would participate in my memorials. If they were willing to save you, you would not need to come forward to plead with them."

"But why didn't they save me?" Yu Ren was puzzled. He didn't agree with his father's point of view very much.

Yu Yuangan patted Yu Ren on the shoulder. "Son, you are still too young! This is the officialdom. It is not a place where friends are loyal. Here, power and interests are the first goal that everyone pursues.

Can't you still see that Wu Jianxu is involved in me, is it actually for you? Your father has not joined any party for many years, so it can be said that no one is involved in it. Wu Jianxu naturally cannot come to me for this little thing.

Wu Jianxu is still an important member of the Zhejiang Party. The fact that you helped the Donglin Party members stand out in Hangzhou has long been spread throughout Jiangnan. Naturally, Wu Jianxu will not be unaware of it. This time he wants to use the purpose of attacking your father to further attack you.

The purpose of attacking you is to lead the Donglin Party. As long as someone in the Donglin Party stands up to defend you, their Zhejiang Party can take the opportunity to suppress and eliminate another group of Donglin Party members.

If I guessed well, this time, the Donglin Party members will definitely not save you."

"Why?" Yu Ren was very surprised. Although after listening to his father's analysis, with his unwillingness to implicate others, he did not want the Donglin Party to take risks to save him. However, they really didn't save themselves, and Yu Ren felt uneasy.

"If it were five years ago, maybe they would stand up and talk to you. But now, absolutely not."

Seeing that Yu Ren was still confused and disbelief, Yu Yuangan continued, "Let me tell you something about five years ago!

Five years ago, the Donglin Party members were very popular in the court at that time. Ye Xianggao was the chief minister, and more than half of the heads of the six ministries were their Donglin Party members.

In that time, the Donglin Party members were determined to win the Beijing inspection. However, because of a person, they failed in the end. And they also suffered a very miserable defeat.

This person is Donglin Jukui Li Sancai.

At that time, Li Sancai's reputation was already at its peak in the court. Many people suggested to elect him to the cabinet. However, because the Donglin Party members were too strong at that time, and Li Sancai was a very strong person, the other three parties (Zhejiang Party, Qi Party, and Chu Party) were worried that as soon as he came to power, they would beat them all. Therefore, the three parties worked together to attack Donglin. The center of the attack was Li Sancai.

The final result was: the Donglin Party members were dismissed for defending Li Sancai, causing many elites to be dismissed and suffered heavy losses. However, Li Sancai still failed to enter the cabinet as he wished, but was dismissed from his hometown.

Because of this lesson, I infer from this that the Donglin Party members will never risk being attacked by groups for you, a person who is just a little related to them. What's more, the Donglin Party at this time is no better than before in the court. The current cabinet chief is the leader of the Zhejiang Party Fang Congzhe.
