Chapter 1620: According to the gourd painting
When Ye Chunqiu arrived at the warm-up hall, Li Dongyang was there too.
Li Dongyang came here early this morning, and his heart was already overwhelmed. He had read the newspaper this morning, which was simply...it was simply indescribable to him.
The so-called tricks are nothing in this temple. Will he still see less tricks of swords and swords?
But I can't stand the way of playing like Ye Chunqiu.
This newspaper was simply humiliating him in various ways. Naturally, the tone of the surface was quite polite, so no one stood up to refute it openly, but because of this, the rumors caused by such articles are really terrible.
Li Dongyang rushed to Zhu Houzhao early in the morning, so he naturally came to sue the Taibai Poetry Club. When things went to this point, Li Dongyang felt that he was completely in a passive state.
As Ye Chunqiu expected, after repeated verbal attacks, he did not have the calmness at the beginning, and he was even very upset and finally began to feel powerless.
If it were a power struggle in the temple, Ye Chunqiu might not be Li Dongyang's opponent.
But for public recommendation like this, Li Dongyang is simply a primary school student in front of Ye Chunqiu. Ye Chunqiu needs theory and strength, but Li Dongyang relies on the appearance of the third brother. His three tricks have almost no power to fight back in front of Ye Chunqiu.
It’s not that Li Dongyang didn’t want to fight back. In fact, he had already had deep grudges with Ye Chunqiu. He wanted to give Ye Chunqiu some color. Ye Chunqiu could splash dirty water and dig holes in different ways. Can’t he follow the example?
But in fact, Li Dongyang quickly discovered that he could not follow Ye Chunqiu's method at all.
In terms of public recommendation, Ye Chunqiu's strength almost crushed Li Dongyang.
Because Ye Chunqiu was rich and countless silver flowed into the poetry club continuously, the merchants had already been in high spirits. Combined with the last anti-commerce incident, the uneasy merchants had already realized that if Wang Hua was not completely lifted as the Chief Minister, the huge wealth in their hands would be just a goal for others to seek.
The poetry club has money, and if you spend tens of millions of dollars, people don’t care about hearing a sound at all.
The emergence of Taibai Newspaper, which was published by one article, almost caused the new magazine that Li Dongyang had originally tinkered with was quickly defeated. Because people were spending money at all, no matter how much they were, each person took a newspaper, which was equivalent to the poetry club paying you.
This money did not fall from the sky. Even some scholars from wealthy families may not be willing to spend dozens or hundreds of times the price to buy a new magazine when they see such affordable items.
Li Dongyang wanted to raise funds, but the amount raised was less than one percent of Ye Chunqiu's poetry club. Most of his supporters were gentry, and gentry, not to mention that the speed of accumulating wealth was far less than that of merchants. One of the biggest reasons was that the gentry themselves possessed privileges and did not have a strong sense of urgency to change anything, so how could they be willing to pay for money?
So, you paid 1,000 and 800 taels of silver in the Zhenguo Mansion. Here, some of Li Dongyang's disciples and officials begged their grandfather to sue their grandmother with Li Dongyang's face, but they only gave it to them for twenty or thirty taels. Only then did they feel sorry for them. It is true that the gentry had land and food at home, but there was not much real money and silver.
Because of this, Li Dongyang finally smelled a bad smell.
Ye Chunqiu's poetry club has been fully launched, and Taibai Newspaper is having a lot of fun. A large number of backbone personnel have begun to go to various provinces, and even... Not to mention other places, just say that there is a wedding and wedding event in Beijing, and the poetry club will definitely come here. The poetry club is rich and recruits a large number of scholars. These people do nothing and work for the poetry club. Of course, some people have seen through the strangeness of these people and are forced to scold them to win people's hearts.
But you should know that people as stubborn as Deng Jian are a minority after all. Although you are disgusted with the poetry club, when your son gets married, someone specially sent someone to receive gifts, or even sent them in the name of Wang Hua. A grand minister of the cabinet will remember you, a little scholar. Everyone loves face and shines brightly. He suddenly feels that there is a gleam on his face. His unhappiness towards the prince will naturally be eliminated. Take a step back and say that even if you still don’t like the people behind Wang Hua and Wang Hua, when someone curses the poetry club and Wang Hua, you are afraid that you will be silent at this time. You can’t say such words.
Li Dongyang had nothing, and his official connections were not helpful at all, so how could Taibaibao spend his time so he was unable to counterattack and clarify because the new newspaper had no power at all. Now, because sales plummeted, it has been on the verge of bankruptcy.
As for those disciples and old officials, most of them have their own affairs. Most of them are officials and can't retire and go back. They just run for you Li Dongyang. There are some scholars who support Li Dongyang, but they can't work full-time after all.
On the other hand, in the capital alone, more than 200 scholars were hired to wait for the order, those who wrote articles, those who investigated public opinion, those who wrote letters, and those who participated in weddings and weddings in the name of Wang Hua, some contacted students to organize outings to go out for a trip together, some specially set up guild halls to deliver rice and food to some poor scholars, and various poetry clubs were very frequent.
From listening to opera to inviting great scholars to lecture, from holding conferences of poetry and articles to calling people to worship the Confucius Temple together, the more exciting it is.
It really responds to the saying, there is nothing they can't do, only something you can't imagine.
The trinity of human relationships, money offensives, public opinion offensives, and the trinity directly opened Li Dongyang's eyes.
Now Li Dongyang didn't say it on his face, but he already understood in his heart that Taibai Poetry Society was the main force that Ye Chunqiu pushed Wang Hua to the prime minister of the cabinet and attacked him hard.
At present, Li Dongyang knew that he would never let Taibai Poetry Society continue like this. If he kept being beaten passively, his position as chief minister would be in danger.
So he rushed to Zhu Houzhao today and came with an impeachment memorial from the Censorate.
The target of impeachment here is Taibai Poetry Society, which says they formed an association and slandered the emperor.
Zhu Houzhao frowned and looked at the memorial, saying, "I didn't scold me, how could this be considered a slander of the lord?"
