Zhao Hao didn't expect that while he was thinking hard by the fireside, Emperor Longqing and his Zhang idol were also having a secret conversation in the Qianqing Palace.

Zhang Ju is the lecturer of Yuwang Qiandi, and his relationship with Emperor Longqing is also very close.

If Longqing regards Gao Gong as his father, then Zhang Juzheng is in the emperor's heart, and he is a brother-like existence.

It was these two people who accompanied Emperor Longqing through the most difficult years in the Yu Mansion.

Now that Gao Gong is gone, the emperor can only talk to Zhang Juzheng.

"Master Zhang, look." Long Qing's face was full of grievances, and he handed a piece of music to Zhang Juzheng and said: "Those officials are becoming more and more disagreeable. ”

Zhang Juzheng sat on the Jindun with his back straight, heard that he took the music with both hands, and unfolded it to see that it was a recital of the imperial history of Nanjing surnamed Zhong.

Because the General Administration Department wanted to send the recital to the emperor first, and then transfer it to the cabinet for drafting, Zhang Juzheng naturally saw this recital that was left by the emperor and not issued.

What is reported on the chapter is a series of strange things that happened in Huzhou, Nanzhili in the first month.

First, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, a strong wind suddenly blew on the flat ground. The official ship moored at the new wharf in Huzhou somehow caught fire. The wind fueled the fire, and the fire took advantage of the wind, and more than 2,000 houses were burned along the way, and 3,400 official and civilian boats were burned,' and more than 40 people were killed.

Because there is a Tong proverb in Huzhou, 'The first moon is chaotic, and the eldest daughter marries her husband', at this time, it was falsely rumored that the emperor was going to send a eunuch to draft a girl.

The whole Huzhou exploded and started a vigorous 'groom battle', as long as there are unmarried daughters over the age of twelve, they can't hold their breath at this time. Ask everywhere where there is a man to marry? All of them are 'lucky to go out and get even'.

For a time, whether in the city or in the countryside, all unmarried men 'regardless of their size, young and old, beautiful, rich and poor', all married daughters-in-law. If the conditions are slightly better, even two or three will marry into the door......

Zhong Yushi gave an example in the song that there was a wealthy family who temporarily hired a tin worker to make pewter. In the middle of the night, the tinsmith was sleeping in the shack, and was suddenly called up by the master's family, rubbing his eyes and entering the house to see, "The lamp and candle in front of the hall are brilliant, and the daughter of the master has made up and is waiting to be hired"!

There is also a poor brother who grinds tofu, and he goes to an alley early to sell tofu, because he looks relatively delicate, which causes customers to scramble. In the end, I had no choice but to worship with my two daughters and live a life of three people without shame......

And the climax of this farce happened to be another general, who arrived in Beiguan, Huzhou, to take office.

Beiguan fired cannons to greet three times according to the rules, who knew that the whole city heard the uproar, and the people exclaimed, "The court made the eunuchs to the top", and the people who didn't marry their daughters ran away, and they were arrested into the palace when it was late!

Those who had not yet married their daughters immediately fled in panic. In the blink of an eye, the city lost one-third of its population......

Only then did the prefect of Huzhou realize that it would not work, so he issued a notice on the thirteenth day of the first month, strictly prohibiting the spread of rumors.

But the people's distrust of the government is engraved in their bones. As a result, the more the rumors were refuted, the more evil the rumors became, saying that this time Emperor Longqing not only wanted a big daughter, but also chose a widow to accompany him to Beijing.

He even wants a widow!

At this time, widows have taken the opportunity to remarry, and many people who have been observing the festival for one or two decades have also hurriedly remarried.

By the end of the month, when the rumors subsided, nearly 10,000 families in Huzhou could never go back to the past, so 'the sound of regret and sighs filled the room', and all of them regretted it......

~~

Such an absurd farce happened in the most prosperous and cultured Jiangnan region of the Ming Dynasty, which naturally caused great damage to the reputation of Emperor Longqing.

Zhang Juzheng hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty is implicated by Emperor Wuzong, he has been in Jiangnan beauty pageants several times during his reign, and he especially likes ...... Widowed people, the people are unbearable, and there are palpitations, so that rumors have the conditions to spread. ”

In fact, Longqing's father also did this, but Renyin Palace regained his heart after the change. However, in front of his son, he didn't scold Lao Tzu, Zhang Juzheng naturally only talked about the poor man who didn't have a son.

Who knew that Emperor Longqing was crooked on the couch, and said gloomily: "Master, I'm not angry with this, you continue to look down." ”

"Yes." Zhang Juzheng hurriedly continued to look at the chapter, and saw that the imperial history behind him turned sharply, and he actually pulled the spearhead on Emperor Longqing.

Zhong Yushi said that this incident is of course a rumor, but 'there is a reason for it', because His Majesty lingers in the flowers all day long, and he does not go to court for months and months, so there will be rumors about you being lustful, and the people also give you a nickname, called 'Little Bee', so they will take the rumors seriously. You have to reflect on it, Your Majesty, you will be an ascetic emperor in the future, go to court on time, and no matter how many rumors there are, you will be self-defeating......"

Zhang Juzheng slowly raised the song to block his face.

Although he has deliberately trained his expression, he can basically achieve 'Tarzan collapses in front and the color remains the same', but this is also too funny, right?!

Up and down for 2,000 years, it's the first time I've heard such a cute nickname as 'Little Bee'!

Little bees, buzzing, fly to the flowers to collect honey.

Who the fuck gave this nickname? Too talented, right?!

Zhang Xianggong silently turned on the spit mode, and used all his strength to hold back his smile.

"Laugh if you want." Emperor Longqing himself smiled bitterly first: "Bees are bees, and add a 'small', this is too bullying, right?" ”

Zhang Juzheng finally couldn't help it and laughed.

But he immediately reached out and touched his face, regained his cool expression and said:

"Please Your Majesty immediately issue an order to punish this Zhong Jiong for the crime of slandering the king!"

"Forget it, it's a big fuss, isn't this nickname known to everyone?"

Long Qing shook his head depressedly and said: "But I think this nickname is not given by the common people, but by a group of officials who do not keep their mouths." ”

Zhang Juzheng nodded silently, the officials relied on their mouths to do things all day long, and they naturally had bad deeds in terms of giving nicknames to big names.

For example, the cabinet scholars of the previous dynasty were collectively referred to as the 'prime ministers of Qingzi'.

Among them, Yan Song's exclusive nickname is 'Daotong', and Xu Jie's is 'licorice'...... Of course, this title is now owned by Lee Sang-gong.

As for Yuan Wei, another prime minister of Qingzi, he was even spoofed as 'Wen Gonggong', which is the sound of 'Wen Gonggong'......

As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but be secretly proud, at least those narrow ghosts didn't dare to give Bugu a nickname.

~~

"But I can't swallow it." Long Qing spared Zhong Yushi, but he felt wronged again.

"I'm going to let those officials bully me to death, they won't let me go out of the palace for a single step, and now I don't even care what I'm doing in the palace. I'm not bored to be the emperor. ”

"The officials did go a little too far." Zhang Juzheng said lightly: "Yuanfu is a little indulgent to them. ”

Long Qingdeng's eyes lit up, and he stared at Zhang Juzheng tightly: "Is what the master said true?" ”

For a long time, the emperor was not as close to Gao Gong as he was, just because Zhang Juzheng was a student of Xu Jie.

Emperor Longqing didn't expect a few of his complaints, but when he heard his dissatisfaction with Yanguan and even Xu Jie, his heart pounded.

I heard Zhang Xiangcheng say fairly: "The minister can be overpromoted, because of the old people in His Majesty's mansion." ”

"Ah, Master Zhang!" Emperor Longqing was almost dizzy with joy, grabbed Zhang Juzheng's hand, and said excitedly: "So you think so?" ”
