Early October.The impact of the Suzhou civil uprising has subsided, and all walks of life in Jiangdong have restored order, while Zhao Ming is running Jiangdong while waiting for the imperial court to come down.According to the speculation of Zhao Ming, Qian Qianyi and others, after Fu Shangrui took his heels, the imperial court should not send any more superintendents, and most of them acquiesced to the status quo of Zhao Ming being in charge of Su Songchang alone.If this is the case, it can be said to be a good thing for Zhao Ming, who can control the place justifiably.However, Qian Qianyi reminded Zhao Ming that although Zhao Ming won Fu Shangrui and the situation was calm on the surface, the contradictions between Zhao Ming and the imperial court, or between the local feudal towns and the central imperial court, were also revealed.Fu Shangrui failed this time, but the imperial court's national policy of weakening the feudal town should not change.This conflict has actually pushed Donghai Town to the opposite side of the imperial court.Qian Qianyi's reminder made Zhao Ming realize the seriousness of the situation, but it was not solved, even if it was calm now, but in fact, it was developing in the worst direction.After all, there were the rebellion of the Seven Kings of the Han Dynasty, the Rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Jin Dynasty, the division of feudal towns at the end of the Tang Dynasty, and the lessons of the Battle of Chengzu Jingnan in this dynasty.This makes the contradiction between Zhao Ming and the imperial court inevitably irreconcilable, and it will inevitably clash again, and in this conflict, Zhao Ming is still unreasonable and cannot occupy the commanding heights of morality.In the case of centralized power, most of the Chinese dynasties were stable and powerful, but when the dynasty was divided internally, the world was often turbulent and the people often suffered from war.Therefore, if the central dynasty wanted to weaken the feudal towns, under normal circumstances, it would be able to gain the support of public opinion, and most of the people were in favor of cutting the feudal domains.This made the status of the feudal town a little embarrassing, once the imperial court cut the domain, it was in a passive position, either honestly handed over power, or rebelled.Over the past dynasties, the feudal towns have rebelled because of the cutting of the feudal domain, and there are very few successful cases, except for the ancestors of this dynasty.Zhao Ming was able to gain support at this time, the main reason was that the foreign enemy still existed, and the timing of the imperial court to weaken the feudal town was not right.Therefore, this made Zhao Ming feel a crisis, in the eyes of the people of the world, the secession of the feudal town is not a just thing in itself, he must find a reasonable reason for himself to grasp the local military and political power, and let the people and gentry recognize and support his moral high point.In recent days, Zhao Ming has been thinking about it for a long time, and discussing with Qian Qianyi, Ma Shiao and others, it is also an armed force against the imperial court, and it is also a secession regime, how can it be done, others are warlords, but he can represent justice and be accepted by the world.Zhao Ming thought about it and thought about it, and only thought of one thing, that is, to make himself revolutionary, but this set obviously did not work at this time, there was no soil and market, and no one could accept such a point of view.Engaging in that set is obviously divorced from reality and difficult to achieve.Zhao Ming thought about it, but he could only retreat to the second, strive to be a reform force in society, give Donghai Town political ideals, and change from a simple warlord to a force with political ideas and can give solutions to social problems.This political proposition and policy program cannot be divorced from reality, and must be able to win the support of the gentry and the people in Jiangnan, so that there can be sufficient legitimate reasons to maintain the status quo of the separatist side and seize the leadership of the world in the future.Zhao Ming thought that this proposition should be to improve society and reform the Ming Dynasty system to meet the needs of the times and social development.Now it seems that the conflict between Zhao Ming and the imperial court is inevitable in the future, and if you don't want to be resolved by the imperial court, then you can only control the imperial court in turn, reform the imperial court, or change the dynasty.And to do this, Zhao Ming must have a group of gentry and bureaucrats around him who can accept his ideas or are willing to attach themselves to him.Now, even Fu Shangrui has seen that the conflict between Zhao Ming and the imperial court is inevitable, and the officials and generals of Donghai Town will gradually realize this.At that time, it is not easy to say which side these officials and generals will choose to stand on, so Zhao Ming urgently needs to put forward the idea of reform as soon as possible, as well as the policy program, to stabilize the hearts of the people in Donghai Town, and prepare for the next confrontation with the imperial power ideology.For this reason, after thinking about it again and again, Zhao Ming decided to unite Qian Qianyi and others to form a party and establish a socialist party representing Donghai Town, as well as the gentry and merchants in Jiangnan.In the northeast of Suzhou City, in the south of Changshu County, there is a large lake, which is the famous Yangcheng Lake, also called Yangcheng Lake.At this time, on the surface of the lake, a boat is more than ten zhang long, two zhang wide, the hull is vermilion, there is a painting boat with a pavilion, breaking the clear lake water, moving forward slowly.In October, when the weather turned cold, Zhao Ming took a cloak from the maid's hand, draped it on Li Zhizhi's body, and said softly: "The wind is strong on the boat, be careful of getting cold."
When the food is ready, I'll have someone call you again!
”Li Zhizhi held his stomach, looked at Zhao Ming's concerned look, pulled his cloak, nodded, and was helped into the ship by the maid.At this time, there was a sudden gust of autumn wind, some dim sky, it rained in the autumn rain, the mist rose on the lake, the rain fell like a bead line along the eaves raised on the painting boat, everyone leaned on the painting boat to watch the rain and drink, there was a unique flavor.At this time, in the bow pavilion, Qian Qianyi, Huang Zongyi and others sat cross-legged at the low table, drinking and watching the rain, and Qian Qianyi also chanted a poem with great interest.The bamboo dock is dust-free and the water threshold is clear, and the acacia is separated from the city.The autumn clouds do not disperse, and the frost flies late, leaving the dry lotus to listen to the sound of the rain.Huang Zongxi praised the festival, but said that compared with Li Shangyin's poem, he preferred Xin Qiji's "Han Palace Spring, Huiji Autumn Wind Pavilion and Rain".At this time, at the stern of the boat, Liu Ruyi was preparing the delicacies on Yangcheng Lake for everyone, including white fish, silver carp, clear water shrimp, and of course, mitten crab.This crab was specially requested by Zhao Ming to prepare, he was poor before, and he had never eaten the crab of Yangcheng Lake, but now that the opportunity is in front of him, he naturally can't let it go.However, what Zhao Ming didn't know was that Yangcheng Lake at this time was not famous for crabs, but for the shrimp and fish in the lake.The history of eating crabs in China is very early, it was used for sacrifice in the Zhou Dynasty, and there were many ways to eat it in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, such as the "Tibetan Crab Method" in "Qi Min Yaoshu", which talks about how to use sugar, knotweed soup and salt to pickle crabs.By the time of the Sui and Tang dynasties, the most popular ways to eat them were bad crabs and sugar crabs.As the name suggests, the bad crab is pickled in sake lees, and the sugar crab is soaked in thin sugar or honey, which is said to be very delicious, as evidenced by Su Shunqing's poems, "The frosted citrus sugar crab is new and beautiful, and the drunken life is wrong." ”The smell is mouth-watering.It's a pity that Zhao Ming doesn't know anything about these eating methods, only steamed hairy crabs.At this time, at the stern of the boat, smoke was rising in the drizzle, and Liu Ru was cooking on a fire, tying up the sturdy crabs one by one, and putting them in the steamer, there were twenty or thirty of them, each of which was the size of a palm, and it looked very delicious.Zhao Ming saw that there was still a while, so he came to the bow of the boat, drank and talked with Qian Qianyi and others, and talked about the formation of a party.
