This Xi Li is actually Li Kangfei, Li Xuan's concubine in history. Unlike Concubine Li Zhuang, she was very favored.

At first, the cheap daddy, Emperor Taichang, had just succeeded to the throne and wanted to make Xili the imperial concubine. The ceremony for the canonization of the imperial concubine was approaching, but Guangzong died suddenly, so the title was not completed.

This Xi Li's ambition is not small. She was responsible for the palace transfer case, and she wanted to listen to politics behind the curtain, but she was stopped by the ministers and she failed.

At the same time, Xili is also a cruel and ruthless person.

Emperor Tianqi's biological mother was Wang Cairen, whose status in the crown prince's uterus was second only to that of Crown Princess Guo.

After Guo died of illness, Wang Cai's mother regarded her son as the most precious and became the woman with the highest actual status in the crown prince's womb.

However, Xi Li was so arrogant that he did not take Wang Cairen seriously and often bullied her.

In the forty-seventh year of Wanli, Xi Li was angry for some unknown reason and actually beat and humiliated Wang Cairen to death.

In fact, Zhu Youxiao could also guess that she wanted to hold Wang Cairen's son in her hand, because he was likely to be the future prince.

Although Xi Li also gave birth to a son, he died when he was five years old. She did not want to let her power go to others, so it was naturally a very safe way to hold the prince in her hands after killing Wang Cairen.

Things went as planned by Xi Li. She was qualified to raise Zhu Youxiao, Wang Cairen's son, and gained important political capital for herself.

Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian also gave Xi Li to raise him after his biological mother Liu Shunu died after being condemned by her father.

Xi Li wanted to be crowned queen, but his cheap daddy died too quickly and it was too late to do anything.

When Emperor Tianqi ascended the throne, Xili initiated another palace transfer case. Unlike Dong Li, this Xili had a very good relationship with Ke Baba.

This Xi Li's method was very sharp. She spread rumors that Emperor Tianqi abused his adoptive mother, causing her to commit suicide by jumping into a well with her daughter in her arms.

Jia Jichun, the censor, wrote a memorial accusing Donglin Party members of interfering too much in inner court affairs, and was criticized by the crowd.

Emperor Tianqi issued an edict to reveal that Xi Li beat his mother Wang Cairen to death and abused himself, and demoted Jia Jichun.

Emperor Tianqi doted on Ke Baba, and the main reason was that Ke Baba filled his need for a mother. His biological mother died very early, and his adoptive mother was not good to him. The only person he could talk to was Ke Baba.

Emperor Chongzhen also had the same feelings for his adoptive mother, Concubine Li Zhuang, so he killed Ke Baba and Wei Zhongxian without hesitation. However, Concubine Li Zhuang died early and could not survive another two years.

Every drink and every peck has its own cause and effect. There are no coincidences in the world.

Naturally, Zhu Youxiao would not let the harem become such a mess again. He decisively killed Ke Baba, and next he would kill Concubine Li Kang of Xili.

Historically, Concubine Li Kang lived a long time.

In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the Ming Dynasty fell. Emperor Chongzhen's Empress Zhou, Emperor Tianqi's Empress Zhang, and many eunuchs and maids in the palace committed suicide.

As for Concubine Li Kang, she naturally did not have such high integrity. As a result, she was captured by Li Zicheng and later fell into the hands of the Qing court.

She and other concubines of the Ming Dynasty who survived and fled were all supported by the Qing government. They died on May 18, the 13th year of Kangxi's reign, and lived at least more than eighty years.

Concubine Xili Li Kang was one of the longest-lived concubines in China's two thousand years of feudal history.

At this time, it had been fifty-four years since the "Relocation Case" occurred, and a full thirty years since the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

Her husband's Zhu Ming dynasty has long been wiped out, her only daughter has died of illness, and her son-in-law and grandson have all committed suicide.

Thinking back to Concubine Li Kang of Xili, Zhu Youxiao sighed lightly. I have to say that this person is also a talent!

Concubine Zhuang moved into Ciqing Palace. This news was naturally something that could not be concealed, but the outer court really couldn't care about these things because they were already so worried.

The reason is very simple. Li Ruzhen was imprisoned in Dongchang, and things became more and more out of control. After the Donglin Party members got the news, countless Party members panicked instantly.

That night, these people once again gathered at the residence of Sun Shenxing, the Minister of Rites, to discuss countermeasures.

Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou were all there, as was Gao Panlong, the veteran of the Donglin Party. Everyone's faces were not very good-looking.

"The matter has reached an imminent point." Gao Panlong was the first to speak.

Among the people present, Gao Panlong is very senior.

When the Donglin Party was established, Gu Xiancheng, together with Gu Yuncheng, Gao Panlong, An Xifan, Liu Yuanzhen, Qian Yiben, Xue Fujiao, Ye Maocai (then known as the Eight Gentlemen of Donglin) and others initiated the Donglin Congress and formulated the "Donglin Eight Gentlemen"

Lin Meeting" stipulates that general meetings should be held once or twice a year and small meetings once a month.

Among them is Gao Panlong. Gao Panlong became a Jinshi in the 17th year of Wanli. Later, his father died and he returned home to observe mourning. In the 20th year of Wanli, he was appointed as Xingren Si Xingren.

In the 22nd year of Wanli, Gao Panlongshangshushen impeached his chief assistant Wang Xijue and was demoted to Jieyang Dianshi, Guangdong.

In the 23rd year of Wanli, Gao Panlong resigned and returned home. He and his brother Gu Xiancheng rebuilt Donglin Academy and taught at home for more than 20 years.

It can be said that Donglin Academy is a group of frustrated people. How did they become frustrated? They are a group of people who want to use their reputation to gain a bright future.

To put it bluntly, it is actually to impeach high-ranking people in exchange for their own future. Once they are reprimanded, they go home.

There are countless officials in the Donglin Party who were kicked out of the court during Zhang Juzheng's reform period. The redundant officials who passed the imperial examination for Zhang Juzheng accounted for about three-tenths of the total number of officials, and these people will never be used. At that time, Zhang Juzheng was in power

So, these people who were laid off formed a group.

After tracing back to the source, we can find that the Donglin Party is a group of frustrated people and also a group of useless officials.

After giving lectures for more than 20 years, with connections everywhere, and disciples and old officials, how powerful is the Donglin Party?

They are well versed in all kinds of officialdom routines, and it can be said that they are invincible in officialdom.

With such qualifications, although Gao Panlong's official position is only the Prime Minister of Guanglu Temple, his status is very high. In the future, Gao Panlong will successively serve as Taichang Shaoqing, Right Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Taipuqing, and Right Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

The Imperial Procuratorate, Zuo Du Yushi and other positions.

How can an official who has never had any experience in local governance be regarded as an important minister in the court and who has lectured at home for more than 20 years? Can such a person be a good official in the court?

The Donglin Party came to power and ruined the atmosphere. Those who were down-to-earth officials could not get promotions, so talking was the key. That's why Yuan Chonghuan's heroic words during the five years of Ping Liao Dynasty came into being.

It was the second year of Tianqi. Yuan Chonghuan went to the capital to meet Zhu Youxiao. Yushi Hou Xun made an exception and promoted Yuan Chonghuan to serve in the Ministry of War.

Soon after, Guangning was captured by the Jin army, so the imperial court discussed that people should be sent to guard Shanhaiguan.

After Yuan Chonghuan learned about it, he immediately went outside the pass to check the terrain.

After returning to the court, Yuan Chonghuan said: "As long as I can be given enough soldiers, horses, money and food, I can guard Shanhaiguan alone."

A civil servant who passed the Jinshi examination had never fought in a war or led an army. He went out for a walk and directly became a soldier in charge of military preparation and supervising foreign troops.
