During the Jiajing period, celebrities in Zhejiang were Hu Zongxian and Qi Jiguang.

During the Wanli period, there was only one celebrity in Zhejiang, that was Chen Yiguan.

Hu Zongxian and Qi Jiguang became famous for fighting against the Japanese, while Chen Yiguan became famous for his party struggles.

Under the leadership of his old man, the four parties of Qi, Chu, Kun and Xuan were closely united under the banner of the Zhejiang Party, and suppressed the Donglin Party for more than ten years and could not turn over. They also used the Demon Book case and the Chu Zong case to almost eliminate all the Grand Secretary and Prince Teachers of the Donglin Group. It is extremely glorious.

As a result, the feng shui takes turns and the first assistant takes turns to do it.

Chen Yiguan's glorious life began with party struggles and ended with party struggles.

Two years ago, Wanli Tejun Chen Yiguan returned to his hometown with his qualifications as the chief assistant. However, Chen Li, a member of the Donglin Party, was directly dismissed.

However, although the emperor was still good at Chen Yiguan and his tone of decree was very gentle, no matter what, Chen Yiguan's resignation meant that the Zhejiang Party was in a turmoil in the court, because the one who was immediately following the cabinet was Ye Xianggao of the Donglin Party.

Since then, the Zhejiang Party has stopped in the court and no longer commanded the major party as a prestige. The Donglin Party took advantage of Ye Xianggao's opportunity to attack in full force, and has become the largest party in the Ming Dynasty.

Chen Yiguan's hometown is Yin County, Ningbo. After two years of returning to his hometown, he was indifferent and no longer competed with the world. In order to waste time, he specially built a garden outside the east gate of his mansion. The garden was not big, but it had mountains, water, flowers and trees, and raised many strange fish, including those in the river and sea. Therefore, the garden specially built several pools, which were light, salty, neither light nor salty, which really made the craftsmen who built it at that time very difficult and also tossed the servants in the garden very light.

Raising fish is a technical job.

If you are well-raised, the old prime minister will not speak. If you are not well-raised, the old prime minister will lose his temper.

The overall cost of the garden is at least tens of thousands of taels. The money will definitely not be paid by the old prime minister. Looking at the prefectures in Zhejiang, those who are willing to build the garden for the old prime minister may be able to line up a few miles.

After the garden was repaired, the old prime minister enjoyed the scenery in the garden every day, drank Shaoxing rice wine, fed fish, or fished, and life was interesting.

The people in the Zhejiang Party have already been circulated. If you have nothing to do, try not to disturb the old prime minister’s rest. The only person who can enter the palace directly without summons is the people in the Zhejiang Party, the former Imperial College Priest Fang Congzhe.

Fang was highly valued by the old prime minister. He was from Huzhou. He passed the 11th year of Wanli and ranked second in the second place. When he was an editor at the Hanlin Academy, he had outstanding writing skills. He was included in the selection of articles by the chief minister Wang Xijue, and he was regarded as a model. He taught in the Eastern Palace and wrote to the emperor many times to maintain his status as the Eastern Palace. He was transferred from the fourth rank of the dynasty and became a sect. He priestly wrote to the emperor and asked not to start mining and collect taxes.

In opposing mining tax, the Donglin Party and Zhejiang Party have the same attitudes because the interests of both sides are also consistent. It can be said that all officials and gentry in the world oppose the emperor's mining tax collection because this is a competition for profit with the "people".

In terms of common interests, all parties can work together to advance and retreat together. Once all parties unite and cooperate, even the emperor can only hide in the palace in depressed manner and dare not compete with it.

Fang Congzhe was originally doing a smooth job, but later because the eunuch of the Sili Supervisor Tian Yi hoped to let him become a student's nephew, who was rejected by Fang Congzhe, which made Tian Yi unhappy and said he wanted to punish him.

At that time, Tian Yi had a very important position in the palace. Not only was he valued by the emperor, but he was also respected by the outside court. Therefore, Fang Congzhe had no choice but to resign and live at home.

This incident made Fang Congzhe not only valued by the leader of Zhejiang Party Chen Yiguan, but also made other parties quite approve of him.

After Chen Yiguan became the chief minister, he hoped that Fang Congzhe would come out again, but he was rejected by Fang Congzhe. Last year, the chief minister Ye Xianggao recommended Fang Congzhe to the emperor to continue the jade letter, and served as the left minister of the Ministry of Rites and the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. However, Fang Congzhe did not submit it. It is rumored that Fang Congzhe also reported to the emperor this year, but he didn't know whether this was the case. Even if it was true, the emperor agreed, and it was unknown whether Fang Congzhe was willing to enter the cabinet.

After all, no matter how Ye Xianggao of the Donglin Party values ​​Fang Congzhe, Fang is always a member of the Zhejiang Party. The battle between the Zhejiang Party and the Donglin Party lasted for nearly twenty years, and the two sides were incompatible.

Fang Congzhe came to Ningbo on the fifth day of the fifth month. Why did the old prime minister tell him? What did he tell him? It is unknown to outsiders.

However, the servants of the house in Shen knew that after Xianggong Fang left, the old prime minister deliberately opened a bottle of daughter Hong, who had been for twenty years. He drank half a bottle alone, and almost had the potential to rise.

Because everyone knows that the old prime minister likes to drink rice wine, there are thousands of bottles of high-quality rice wine in the old prime minister's mansion. When the old prime minister is fine, he also likes to sit alone in the pavilion courtyard, watching the paintings and enjoying the scenery while drinking.

As the end of the year approaches, the weather must be cold. The old prime minister is old, so his family is unwilling to be cold outside again.

But the old prime minister has a stubborn temper and has been an official all his life. He is the only one at home. None of his children dares to anger him.

Only the old prime minister heard what his little granddaughter said. But the little granddaughter went to Hangzhou's aunt's house and was not in the mansion. So, the old prime minister was so angry that no one dared not let him go to the garden.

When the old prime minister put on his mink clothes and went to the garden, he took a picture from the study. In the garden, the maids had already prepared wine and food, and a stove was growing next to it to ensure that the wine and food would not be cold.

After the old prime minister sat down, he tasted a few chopsticks first, then asked someone to clean the table, then carefully untied the scroll of the painting, and carefully spread it on the table to observe.

The maids serving the side blushed when they saw the painting.

It turned out that the painting the old prime minister looked at was actually a picture of the erotic palace!

In the painting, in the pavilion, a man and a woman lay naked on one side, with beautiful lines and black hair, and their bodies intertwined. There were many shameful people and toys beside them, like mechanisms. I didn’t know what it was at first sight, but then I saw where I could say something.

This painting is really top-notch, and it is extremely realistic and makes people feel excited when they see it.

The maids in the mansion were all young girls, and they had never had any human affairs. When they saw this painting, their faces blushed and their hearts were beating. They turned their eyes shyly, for fear that they would have needles when they took a look.

However, the old prime minister was relished in his sight. Unlike the maids' blushing and heartbeat, the old prime minister looked focused and his eyes were full of appreciation. While looking, he slowly groped the lines in the painting with his fingers, trying to estimate how the painters painted at that time, and wondering if they could draw.

That obsessive look was completely disgusted.
