"They have always been indifferent to the border affairs in the north, and they will only jump up and oppose it when the imperial court asks for Jiangnan assistance." Zhang Juzheng smiled bitterly when he heard this:

"I don't know what kind of attitude they will take this time."

In fact, he only said half of this. Gao Gong's protégés have not been less bad luck with the Jiangnan Group this year, impeaching them for competing with the people, illegally running schools, monopolizing the people's livelihood, and so on...... It's just that they were all suppressed by Zhao Zhenji.

Can't write two Zhao characters in one stroke, Zhao Gelao is willing to be a free meat shield for Jiangnan Group in line with the principle of 'I will support what Gao Gong opposes'. As a result, the contradiction between him and Gao Gong became more and more intensified.

"Hmm......" Gao Gong naturally knew this, and spit out turbid air without making a sound. Although he is like-minded with Zhang Juzheng at the moment, he is like glue, and he has nothing to talk about. But who knows if the kid surnamed Zhao will become the Zhang family's Chenglong fast son-in-law, so he never discusses things related to Jiangnan Group.

He pondered silently for a moment, decided to press the wheel for a moment, and then asked, "What will be the attitude of the nobles?" ”

"Nine times out of ten, it's the opposition." Zhang Juzheng spread his hands and said: "If they don't fight, how can they make meritorious contributions?" ”

"Say it as if they can fight......" Gao Gong took a sip, his mouth pursed high. Even if the nobles don't fight on their own, their relatives still need to develop in the army, and they are definitely not willing to negotiate peace.

"These dozen or so negative votes are terrible." Zhang Juzheng sighed.

"Is there a way to get them to change course?" Gao Gong pulled his beard and said, "Even if you pull half of it, it's okay." ”

"Then I'll have to talk to the three grandfathers." Zhang Juzheng said.

"The old man can't talk to them." Gao Gong shook his head resolutely, Chengguo Gong slipped and did not leave his hand, Dingguo Gong was cautious, and the British Duke fell into the eyes of money.

The most important thing is that they can't come up with the chips that can impress them......

"And who can talk to them?" Zhang Juzheng asked thoughtfully.

Gao Gong felt a greasy taste in his heart: "What kind of circle?" You just say it, this matter can't be done without the kid surnamed Zhao! ”

"I didn't say that." Zhang Juzheng smiled and said, "But Brother Su Qing seems to have a prejudice against Zhao Hao." I don't think he dares to come to the capital anymore......"

"Shouldn't the old man have prejudices against him?" The words have been said and done, and the high arch will open the skylight to speak brightly. "Don't be too modest, you and I are unborn geniuses. The old man is good at duality at the age of five, recites a thousand words at the age of eight, and solves the yuan at the age of seventeen. Your uncle is a world-famous prodigy, but as soon as that kid was born, he compared us all. ”

"Yes, there are talents from all generations, and they have led the way for hundreds of years." Zhang Juzheng couldn't help laughing.

"Oh yes, he can also compose poetry......" Gao Gong said depressedly: "For this kind of person, there is no more suitable word to describe him except 'demon'!" ”

"That's not a good word...... Zhang Juzheng said with a smile.

The demons and the abnormality of things are also considered by the ancients to be a bad omen. The so-called 'the country is about to fall, there will be demons'.

"Of course it's not a good word!" Gao Gong raised his voice and said: "In just four years, he founded the Xishan Group, using the eldest princess to unify the nobles of Beijing. He also founded the Jiangnan Group, which enveloped the Haoshi family in Jiangnan into a monolith. This ability to form cliques is really sensational. I heard that the magistrates in Jiangnan only know that there is a Jiangnan group, but they don't know that there is a court! ”

"He is also vigorously running education in Jiangnan. Good fellow, let him go for another ten or twenty years, and wait for our generation to get old. This Ming Dynasty should be full of people surnamed Zhao! Gao Gong paused and said coldly: "What does he want to do?" I think it's definitely a lot! Now that he has a solid foundation, it is not so easy to move him. But it is precisely because of this that it is even more important to have a showdown with him as soon as possible! ”

Zhang Juzheng was secretly frightened when he heard this, but he didn't expect that in Gao Gong's eyes, Zhao Hao's threat level was comparable to that of a Tartar. If you go outside, you must first settle inside, and the tall beard is about to clean up Zhao Hao when he frees his hands!

At this time, he couldn't be ambiguous, and said in a deep voice: "Maybe Brother Su Qing has too little contact with him, so he has some prejudices against him." I have talked to that kid several times, and I can guarantee that this person is sincere to Daming. He didn't hide everything he did from me, and it wasn't that he deliberately formed a gang, but that the company's organizational form was too powerful. ”

"He didn't invent the company yet?" Gao Gong asked with a sneer.

"That's different, when a baby is born, no one can say for sure whether he will grow into a saint or a demon. It takes time to observe it slowly. Zhang Juzheng said with a straight face: "You shouldn't be able to babble, just beat you to death with a stick." ”

"As long as there is a possibility of growing into a demon, then it should be killed as soon as possible to prevent future troubles!" Gao Gong gritted his teeth and said, "Did you say it?" Uncle! ”

"I have a different opinion." Zhang Juzheng did not respond as usual, and also said with a clear attitude: "In the two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, it has long lost the sharpness of the founding of the country, and it is already lifeless, just following it. Even if we have the ambition to make up for the sky, our measures are nothing more than 'provincial discussions', 'revitalization of discipline', 'heavy edicts', and 'verification of names'...... That's just a few back and forth, lackluster. If you do a good job, you can only continue your life for the country for decades, but if you want to restore the prestige of the second ancestor, you can't do it, let alone the Han and Tang Dynasties. ”

"Why am I speaking for him? It's not a matter of favoritism...... Besides, I don't have a personal relationship with that kid! Saying that, he earnestly persuaded:

"I feel the vigorous vitality and the power of change from the new things of the company, especially the Jiangnan Group! This is what Daming lacks the most now, so the servant hopes to observe and observe again to see what tricks they can conjure up and what changes they can bring to Jiangnan to Daming. ”

"Change, change." Gao Gong was a little irritated and said, "What if it becomes hopeless?" ”

Zhang Juzheng lowered his eyelids and said: "The main road changes, and each is ...... life."

"Each is his life? Is this what a scholar of a country should say? I think you're dazed! Gao Gong snorted coldly. Zhang Juzheng's words come from the "I Ching: Qiangua", which can be understood as 'everything on the earth must adapt to the changes of the sky, the fittest survive and grow, and those who do not adapt can only be eliminated.' ’

"......" Zhang Juzheng stopped talking, in fact, there were four sentences he didn't say, which was even more excessive.

"Ahem, off topic. Speaking of the matter of the court discussion, how did it get involved with that kid? Seeing that the differences in the attitude towards Zhao Hao were too deep, Gao Gong hurriedly pulled the topic back, the most important thing at the moment is that I will pay tribute, and everything else has to be put back. He laughed and said, "Where did you just go, forgot?" ”

"When it comes to the candidate to negotiate with Xungui, Zhao Hao is the most suitable." Zhang Juzheng also smiled and said: "I'm also talking about it, and I can't do what I just said." ”

"Yes, yes, I can't do it." Gao Gong nodded with a smile: "Then call that kid into Beijing, and the old man will have a good chat with him." Said with a self-deprecating smile: "Last time he went to Gaojiazhuang, the old man only cared about being angry with Zhao Liben's old gelding, but didn't talk to him in detail." ”

"It should." Zhang Juzheng nodded, suddenly remembered something, gritted his teeth slightly, and said, "Speaking of which, I have to talk to him well!" ”

~~

Jinling City Kokura Mountain, in the flagship store of Taste Extremely Fresh.

Zhao Gongzi, who was attending the thank-you banquet, sneezed twice in a row.

"Who cares about Ben Gongzi?" Zhao Hao took the Luo Pa handed by Sister Ma and blew his nose.

"I guess it's a good match, right?" Li Zhen sat next to him with a golden knife, and teased him unceremoniously when he heard this.

"Nonsense, my son is as guarded as jade." Zhao Hao rolled his eyes, and he didn't have the same knowledge as him. The boss is very tolerant of irreplaceable ace employees...... Of course, you can't flirt with the boss's secretary.

This time, Li Zhen and Pan Zhongli tutored the king, but they made miraculous achievements.

On September 18, the Tianxiang test was unveiled, and Xie Yuan's surname was Jiao Minghong, who came from Yufeng Academy.

The second place, Yayuan Wu Rulun, is from Yufeng Academy.

The third place, Yayuan Xia Liuren, is from Yufeng Academy.

After that, until the tenth place Yayuan, there were three more from Yufeng Academy.

In addition, there were 27 students who were promoted, and a total of 33 students were on the list.

Don't look at the 62 people who are still in the first place, twice the number of people in the middle lift.

However, this is the most serious involution of Nanzhili Township test!

In the fourth year of Longqing, a total of 4,300 candidates participated in the Yingtianfu Township Examination, and 135 were finally admitted.

The acceptance rate is only a pitiful 3.49%, but it is already the highest in Jiajing's 16 years.

However, Yufeng Academy's admission rate for the township examination is as high as 34.7%, which is ten times the total admission rate!

This only counts the results of the Ying Tianxiang exam, and the papers in other provinces are not so powerful, and it is estimated that the final acceptance rate will rise.

Sure enough, a few days later, good news from other provinces came one after another.

Of the 50 students who participated in the Shuntianfu Township Examination, 30 were selected, including Xie Yuan and Li Tingji.

Of the 22 students who participated in the Jiangxi Township Examination, nine were selected, including Xie Yuan and Wu Tianliang.

Of the sixteen students who participated in the Shandong Township Examination, eight were selected, including Yu Shensi.

There are also Huguang No. 3 Middle School, Fujian No. 4 Middle School, Henan No. 2 Middle School, and Henan No. 2 Middle School......

In the end, Yufeng Academy's overall winning rate reached an astonishing 44.8%.

However, Zhao Hao will not release this data, which is too eye-catching. Anyway, the township test record will only record the place of origin and school status of the children, and will not specifically record which private tutoring institution they are from. Therefore, except for the inside of the academy, outsiders have no way to count.

According to his meaning, even the celebration banquet was not held, and it was right to make a fortune in a muffled voice.

"You're covering your ears and stealing the bell." But Pan Zhongli reminded him: "Others are just not sure, but you can make an appointment." You hide it, but you seem to have a ghost in your heart. It's better to admit generously that our tutoring of the imperial examination is amazing, so it is not surprising that everyone gets used to it early. ”

Zhao Hao pondered repeatedly, it is indeed this reason. I always want to go over the beard, but I can't help but shrink a little. He hasn't moved in his nest for almost a year, and people don't seem to be planning to let him go.

Only then did he decide to stop hiding it, and took a cadre of the academy to attend the teacher appreciation banquet held by the new imperial examiners.
