Chapter 857: Waiting for the Moment

Now, the imperial court has officially begun to apply the "Examination Method" proposed by Zhang Juzheng, about this matter, on the surface, Zhang Siwei has made a great contribution, after all, at that time in the court, in the face of so many people's opposition, Zhang Siwei is the only one who stood up to speak to refute them, and he finally won, so on the surface, if Zhang Siwei is credited, there is no problem at all.

Of course, there are many problems in this, and there are many reasons why Zhang Siwei wants to stand up and refute those people, instead of changing people, including that he is the most suitable person, and it is inconvenient for others to stand up and speak because of his identity or various other reasons, and that is, Zhang Siwei was able to win because he had the support and support of many people behind him.

The first one is Zhang Juzheng, if there is no permission from Zhang Juzheng, he will not be able to stand up and take care of these things, of course, this is not very important, after all, Zhang Juzheng at this time is hoping that more and more people can help him.

And then there is the support of Zhang Fan and Feng Bao behind him, to talk about it, the relationship between Zhang Fan and Zhang Siwei, in such a period of less than two months, it can be said that it is heating up rapidly, after all, the previous incident made the two get in touch very quickly, and the relationship is definitely not ordinary, but in this matter, Zhang Fan's help to Zhang Siwei is not much, it cannot be said that there is nothing, but Zhang Fan's help can be said to be passive, and Zhang Fan will stand up and speak only after a problem occurs.

And Feng Bao's actions in this matter are quite unusual, the relationship between him and Zhang Siwei has also undergone a great change, from the mutual hostility between the two, and even to the point where Feng Bao wants to put Zhang Siwei to death, and then to the temporary cessation of hostility between the two, and finally to the two of them turning enemies into friends, of course, whether the two are really turning enemies into friends, or the relationship between the two has not become good, and now the closeness is only temporary, Because profit makes it a temporary reason, it is difficult to say.

But there is no need to discuss these too much for the time being, after all, whether the two of them are sincere or sincere now, whether they are false and wronged, but the situation will not change, Feng Bao will still help Zhang Siwei, and Feng Bao's help is different from others, although Feng Bao is a eunuch and an internal supervisor, and the Ming Dynasty has always had regulations that the harem and internal prison are not allowed to interfere in politics, but even this ancestral precept or ordinance is not completely absolute, it still depends on what the situation was at that time, and, Even if Feng Bao interferes, he will not do anything that will give people a mouthful, he will always tell others to do it, and even if something happens at that time, he will definitely not blame him.

Take this matter as an example, although Feng Bao is strongly supporting Zhang Siwei, but in fact, there has never been a direct conversation between him and Zhang Siwei, whether it is to ask Zhang Siwei to say anything, or to give Zhang Siwei any news, all of them are what he told others to do, but, again, don't underestimate his kind of help, after all, behind Feng Bao, there is an extremely powerful source of news, if Feng Bao wants to find out any news, it will be a very easy thing.

No, this time Zhang Siwei was able to fight the Confucianism alone, and the reason why one person won was because there was a powerful source of news provided by Feng Bao behind him, and Zhang Siwei was just making good use of these news, so this time it was not so much Zhang Siwei's victory, but in fact, Feng Bao was the biggest contributor.

Of course, these are things that have been in the past, and now that they are talking about it, in addition to making people feel a little embarrassed, it is no longer helpful, and now, people's top priority is how to cope with the "Examination Law" that has begun to be implemented.

For the implementation of the "Examination Law", the most unhappy thing is probably to count the officials of the six subjects, and do not look at it, on that day in the court, stand up against the "Examination Law", the most are the officials of the six subjects, although carefully scrutinized, more than half of these officials who stand up for the six subjects are because of their own personal reasons, feel that the "Examination Law" hinders them personally, but in fact, the reason why so many officials of the six subjects stand up to oppose it has a lot to do with the "Examination Law" itself.

The content of the "Examination Law" does not need to be repeated now, and its most important thing is that the three books are used to record and when the officials are performing and acting as account books, and these three account books are kept separately, and the six departments also have a copy, according to this statement, the six departments should not have any dissatisfaction, and, according to the provisions thereof, the six departments also have the right, according to the registration in the account books, require the six departments to report the situation of verification every six months, so to speak, the "Examination Law" The right to give six subjects is really not a small amount.

It's just that in the recital played by Zhang Juzheng, there is another sentence at the end, that is, after this recital is read out, it will cause such a big reaction from the officials of the six departments.

The last sentence says that when the verification is completed, the cabinet will also check the inspection work of the six sections with more examples registered in the account books, which at first glance seems to be no problem, but in fact, it means that the work of the six sections should be examined, and the deeper meaning is that it does not believe in the examination work of the six sections.

In the past, if the officials under the six departments were examined, they could be reported in a timely manner, or even impeached, and the officials of the six departments were the identity of the officials, according to the regulations of the Ming Dynasty, the officials would not be punished if they spoke.

In the past, the six subjects relied on such a way to survive, and the survival was quite good, if someone did something wrong, then they would naturally stand up and speak, and if someone made a little mistake, it was the kind of mistake that could be forgiven, it depends on the mood of these people in the six subjects, if they feel that it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, but there are other situations in this, in case of saying, some of them will be involved in some more personal issues, It is quite possible that even a small innocuous mistake could cause that person big trouble.

And now, if the "Examination Law" is applied a little, such a unique advantage that originally belonged to the six subjects no longer exists, the previous six subjects, who wants to impeach, then impeach, but now, the word "impeachment" is not so easy to say, if it is said, when the cabinet verifies, if there is no such thing, although it will not do anything to them, but a "presumptuous" title can be regarded as a solid one, in the future, this is the reason for the trouble.

It can be said that the "Examination Law" has greatly damaged the right to act arbitrarily before the six subjects, and has made everything different.

And this is undoubtedly a very heavy blow to the six branches, which have not much real power in the first place.

The implementation of the "Examination Law" is undoubtedly a major reform of the Ming Dynasty, although Zhang Siwei's words before, saying that the "Examination Law" is just an additional procedure on the basis of not changing the original working methods of the imperial court, and everyone can't refute this statement, because that's the case, but in fact, it's so much that a procedure has been added, so that everything has become different.

Of course, this is a situation that everyone has foreseen, but it has not happened for the time being, but the current situation is that almost everyone thinks that things will be bad, but almost all people do not buy this matter.

In their opinion, if the "Examination Law" wants to really play an effective role, someone still needs someone to set an example, of course, this example is naturally not something that everyone will think about, but now speaking, all people still go their own way, although they also act in accordance with the regulations, but what should they do in private, or what.

It's not that they're not afraid, it's not that they think Zhang Juzheng doesn't dare, but they feel that when the time comes, when someone is unlucky, they will see how bad they will be, and then they will make adjustments.

For these people, the reason why they have this kind of thinking is because they don't believe that they will be so unlucky and become the first victims to be used to kill chickens and monkeys, but this kind of thinking is not an exaggeration, after all, there are countless officials under the Ming Dynasty, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this first batch of unlucky people is one in a million, so they don't believe that they will be so unlucky.

Therefore, even though the "Examination Law" has been promulgated, in fact, the situation has not changed much, and many people still go their own way.

And Zhang Juzheng naturally foresaw this situation a long time ago, so he was not worried or anxious, he was waiting for an opportunity to really set an example for these people.

And for this matter, relying on the "Examination Law" alone is actually enough, but the "Examination Law" still has its shortcomings, that is, it is very useful for official things, but if someone plans to do something in private, there is no way.

Therefore, at this time, many special means are used.

Moreover, Zhang Juzheng's consideration is not only like this, the application of the "Examination Method" can be regarded as the completion of one of his ambitions, even if it has not shown any effect now, but for Zhang Juzheng, it is only a matter of time.

And Zhang Juzheng is now planning something else, his ambition is not just that,
