If Zhu Youxiao was here, he would definitely not know who Master Zhou was, but if he told him his name, he would definitely know it.

Zhou Yanru! Why did I come here for this old guy?

This is not simple Zhou Yanru. If you study the history of the late Ming Dynasty, you can't avoid this old boy.

Simply put, Zhou Yanru's name is Yu Sheng and his name is Yi (yi's fourth tone to the same voice as Yi) Zhai. He was from Yixing in the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian was the chief minister of the cabinet when he was reigned. He was smart and had a literary reputation. When he was 20 years old, he was the top scholar and was appointed as the editor. During the Tianqi period, he was transferred to Youzhongyun and was in charge of the affairs of the Jingju. Soon, he was appointed as the affairs of the Hanlin Academy in Nanjing. Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne and was summoned to be the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites.

In April of the 16th year of Chongzhen, the Qing army entered the pass. Zhou Yanru asked for his own visit, but he falsely reported the victory to deceive Emperor Chongzhen. Emperor Chongzhen did not know the inside story and praised Zhou Yanru very much, so he was specially promoted to the Grand Tutor. Later, Luo Yangxing, the commander of the Jinyiwei, submitted a memorial to expose him, and was convicted and exiled to guard the border.

Soon, Emperor Chongzhen issued an edict to order Zhou Yanru to commit suicide and leave his family at the age of 51.

It can be said that this person was a great treacherous minister and even played a role in accelerating the demise of famous dynasties.

If Zhu Youxiao saw this Lord Zhou here, he would definitely remember a political group in the late Ming Dynasty that he had always ignored.

Restoration!

Fushe was also the successor of the Donglin Party, the driving force behind the demise of the Ming Dynasty, and the gathering of the strength of the gentry in Jiangnan. If the biggest disaster during the Apocalypse period was the Donglin Party, then when it comes to Chongzhen, it will be Fushe's turn.

The reason why Zhu Youxiao ignored the resumption of the society was because he was still subconsciously treating time as a revelation and did not adjust time to Chongzhen.

Zhou Yanru had a great influence on Fushe. It can be said that the prosperity of Fushe began when Zhou Yanru became the chief minister.

"Mr. Cao is fine, I'm fine, I haven't seen you for a long time, so I feel very safe." Zhou Yanru bowed and replied with a smile.

"Please!" Cao Sicheng pointed at the top of the position and asked him to sit down.

"Please!" Zhou Yanru also replied with a polite sentence and sat down.

"Mr. Zhou, I don't know what the son-in-law should do." Cao Sicheng's face was a little cold because this person sent his favorite son-in-law to the imperial prison.

"Mr. Cao hasn't become your son-in-law yet?" Zhou Yanru picked up the teacup and blew it away, gently plastering it.

"But the little girl has already made a marriage contract with him, her birth date and horoscope have matched, and her wedding letter has been given!" Cao Sicheng slapped the table.

Zhou Yanru put down the teacup and took out a letter-like thing from his pocket: "Mr. Cao, don't panic, are you still not clear about our work? Ensure it is thorough, please read it."

Zhou Yanru handed over the envelope, and Cao Sicheng opened the wedding letter that turned out to be his daughter.

"How, how could we let Lord Cao's daughter take risks? The marriage letter is not here."

Cao Sicheng snorted coldly and burned the wedding letter silently.

"But we will not let Lord Cao suffer in vain. I hope Lord Cao will accept the little intentions." Zhou Yanruyou handed over a piece of half-folded paper.

Cao Sicheng opened his eyes and his pupils shrank. This turned out to be a land deed of 3,000 acres of land in Hejian Prefecture, and it was a good paddy field.

"What a big deal!" Although Cao Sicheng's face was still a little cold, he was very satisfied, so he calmly put the land deed into the pocket of his sleeve.

"It's just a little bit of courtesy, Lord Cao doesn't have to care." Zhou Yanru couldn't help feeling a little contempt when he saw Cao Sicheng's actions, but he seemed to have seen nothing on his face, as if the land deed just now was not given to him.

"Master Zhou is probably not as simple as giving away a land deed." Cao Sicheng's turbid eyes seemed to have seen through everything.

"This is natural, and there are still some trivial matters that need help from Lord Cao." Zhou Yanru picked up the teacup again and took a sip.

"What's the matter?"

"The eunuch party is powerful, and our power in the court has been weakened to the extreme. We urgently need to send several adults back to the court." Zhou Yanru said with a calm smile, as if he said just now that things were really trivial things.

"This is impossible!" Cao Sicheng stood up all of a sudden. He didn't expect their plan to be so big.

Zhou Yanru waved his hand to ask Cao Sicheng to sit down, and he was helpless to return to the court. The eunuch party was powerful and suppressed them with the emperor's favor. It was miserable. Since the Six Gentlemen of Donglin, several Grand Secretary of the Six Ministers of the Six Ministers were all from the eunuch party. The inability to control the court made the people in Jiangnan very worried.

Since ancient times, there are people in the court that are easy to do business. Now that there are no people in the court, you have to be careful when doing things. No one has spread the news, maybe when the sword will be put on your neck, I have never known it.

Therefore, returning to the court is an urgent matter. They are actively mobilizing connections from all parties, hoping to restore several adult officials.

As the left censor, Cao Sicheng was naturally given enough importance, so Zhou Yanru came to Beijing.

"If Lord Cao hadn't been possible before, he had never known it now."

"The eunuch party is in great power, how do you return to the court?" Cao Sicheng asked urgently.

"Just as Lord Cao thought, the eunuch party is powerful and is the best time to return to the court." Zhou Yanru sat on the chair with a sure victory as if he was sure to hold it.

"So!" Cao Sicheng approached his face.

"So." Zhou Yanru nodded: "Keshi's demotion shows that the emperor has begun to be afraid of the eunuch party. We are the only one who can check and balance the eunuch party in the world. Lord Cao, you are clear about the truth without me telling it."

Cao Sicheng got up and walked around the room a few times. Of course, he understood what Zhou Yanru said that the art of emperors lies in checks and balances. The current eunuch party in the court is dominant, which is not beneficial to the emperor at all. He must find a group that competes with him and has reached the balance of the court. They just want to take advantage of this loophole.

If Cao Sicheng had never dared to do so before, but the situation is different now. Since Keshi was demoted by Huo Weihua and taken down, the current atmosphere in the court is a bit strange. Maybe they really have the chance to come back.

But what benefits can you do if you help yourself? This is the issue that Cao Sicheng really needs to consider.

"Then you let Chen Qi impeach Wei Zhongxian! Wouldn't you let him die in vain!" Cao Sicheng pretended to be angry.

"If he doesn't impeach, how can His Majesty clearly see how powerful the eunuch party is?"

"It seems that your arrangement is useless at all." Cao Sicheng mocked him.

Zhou Yanru's fingers froze and his mouth twitched a little. That plan really couldn't keep up with the changes. Who would have thought that the current emperor was so shameless that he actually asked a minister to really hit the pillar in front of all the ministers!

What a fool! It would be great if he really died. I believe His Highness King will definitely become a wise king with our assistance.

"Hahaha." Seeing Zhou Yanru being defeated, Cao Sicheng felt inexplicably happy.

"No matter whether the matter is successful or not, the river beach west of Caojiazhuangzi of Hejian Prefecture is yours." Zhou Yanru threw out the bait himself.

When Cao Sicheng heard this, he took a deep breath in his ears. The river beach outside Caojia Village was more than 200 hectares, which was more than 20,000 acres. If he returned to the Cao family, the Cao family would become the largest landlord in Hejian Prefecture.

It is false to say that you are not moved, but it seems that you can really plan this matter!

"Then wait for the good news of the great master." The purpose has been achieved, and Zhou Yanru left with a smile.

Cao Sicheng had not reacted so much, and the butler said softly in his ear.

"Miss Nine locked herself in the house and didn't come out and didn't want to eat. You see what to do."

Cao Sicheng never cared about the daughter who had made a marriage contract with the censor. She was just a concubine of a concubine. It was a good use to exchange 3,000 acres of land for the Cao family.

"Then let her starve to death!" Cao Sicheng threw the teacup on the ground.

The Cao family has a very strict family tradition. Since they have a engagement but have not been married, it is really a shameful family style, so they just die! Cao Sicheng wished that his daughter would starve to death, so he could not do it himself and end up being accused of killing his son.
