Chapter 72: Zhang Juzheng and Yu Qian

Zhang Weixian sat in his seat, looking at his grandfather, frowning slightly, the expression on his face was a little tangled, and a little hesitant, and only after a while did he speak: "Grandpa, what should happen to the grandson this time?" ”

Glancing at his grandson, Zhang Rong smiled and said, "How does Your Majesty treat you?" ”

"Of course it's superb!" Zhang Weixian hurriedly said: "Whether it is in the school palace or outside the school palace, Your Majesty is very good to your grandson. In the school palace, His Majesty's cultivation of his grandson is also very heavy. ”

Zhang Rong nodded, and said with a shorthand smile: "What about this graduation ceremony and the upcoming appointment?" ”

"Nature is the grace of knowledge!" Zhang Weixian replied directly, and said with a solemn face.

Nodding slightly, Zhang Rong said with a smile: "Your Majesty values it, of course it's a good thing, we are honorable, don't care too much about reputation." I don't know what other people think, but this time is an opportunity for our Zhang family. ”

"Opportunity?" Zhang Weixian was stunned for a moment, and looked at his grandfather with some confusion.

Zhang Rong said with a smile: "A chance to return to the court!" Speaking of this, Zhang Rong suddenly became excited: "Our Zhang family is a British government, how majestic it was back then, but unfortunately the battle of Tumu Fort was shattered. ”

"Yu Qian established the new emperor, tried to ensure that the capital was not lost, and even now it is praised by those civil officials."

"But what about our nobles? It's a shame, a shame to be thrown in front of the ancestors! Zhang Rong said with a somewhat gloomy expression: "Why did the second room and the third room participate in the change of seizing the door later?" ”

Zhang Weixian is of course very clear about the things in his family, and the three of them played a very important role in the change of seizing the door.

These three people are Shi Heng, Xu Youzhen, and the eunuch Cao Jixiang, and these three people organized the change to seize the door.

But Zhang Weixian knew that their Zhang family was very involved in this matter, but the Zhang family's position did not allow them to come to the forefront. The British government couldn't be this bird, so Shi Heng became a representative of the military.

In fact, whether it is to grasp the military power or to persuade the queen mother, the Zhang family has made great efforts.

Although Xungui suffered heavy casualties at that time, most of the military power of the Ming Dynasty was still in their hands, and without their help, Shi Henglian would not be able to enter the palace gate. Just look at Shi Heng's fate later, how correct the Zhang family's choice was at that time.

Whenever it comes to Lichu, Xungui hides far away, not to mention this kind of door-grabbing thing, this is Xungui's way of survival, but secretly they have no less effort.

"Your Heavenly Ancestor died a miserable death!" Zhang Rong said movingly: "Five out of sixty, died on the battlefield, fought endlessly all his life, and rarely lost, but in the end he ended up like this, shouldn't we hate Yingzong?" ”

"But why did our Zhang family want to help him seize the door and help him regain the throne?"

"It's not that Xungui is so pressed that he can't raise his head, and he can change the emperor's prime minister, he will take our Xungui in his eyes? His Majesty at that time would support us? How did he get his throne, everyone knows in their hearts, and civil officials are his reliance. ”

"We, the nobles, have lost a lot of blood, and we are already toothless tigers."

"But it's us toothless tigers who bite into it and bite off their flesh directly." Zhang Rong said this, and said with a somewhat hideous expression: "Do you know? At that time, the crown prince established by His Majesty had died, and His Majesty was seriously ill, and the throne should have been returned. ”

"In fact, no matter whether Nangong is restored or not, the throne will be returned, and at that time, Yu Qian and they had already written to abolish the emperor as the crown prince."

Speaking of this, Zhang Rong smiled: "But they are one step slower after all, we succeeded in seizing the door, in this way, we have regained power, Yu Qian and they are all dead and killed, do you think we are very insidious?" ”

Zhang Rong said here and smiled again: "We are just knives, Your Majesty's knives." ”

"Your Majesty will not leave Yu Qian, whether it is to seize the door or return the throne, Your Majesty will not leave Yu Qian. A minister who has changed the emperor, a minister who abolished himself regardless of his own life and death, which emperor will keep him? ”

"Yu Qian is meritorious, and he strives to ensure that the capital is not lost, but many things do not depend on merit or not."

"It's just that compared to civil officials, we don't have talents!" Zhang Rong sighed and said: "The civil servants are thousands of scholars in the world, and the best of the best are selected, what about our nobles?" ”

"How can you beat them all day long, eating, drinking, and having fun?"

"So we have this now, the Beijing camp has been handed over, look at the current Zhang Juzheng, how majestic, if it goes on like this, our honors will be over." Zhang Rong turned his head to look at Zhang Weixian: "So grandpa said, this time is our chance!" ”

Zhang Weixian was silent, of course he knew about Yu Qian, but it was the first time he had heard his grandfather say this.

For a while, Zhang Weixian felt a little weird, although his grandfather said that his side was the emperor's knife, but why did he still have a feeling of being a traitor. However, Zhang Weixian didn't dare to ask, he was afraid of being scolded, after all, this was not his position.

Seeing that his grandson's face was different, Zhang Rong sighed and said, "Who can say clearly what is right and wrong in this world!" ”

"Yu Qian is for the country and the people, and his ambitions are eternal, do you think he doesn't know about the change of seizing the door? Still don't know what will happen to you? He knew, how could Yu Qian not know, but at that point, unless he rebelled, or became Cao Mengde, he would die after all. ”

Zhang Weixian was silent, he also knew that Yu Qian's choice might have a lot of inappropriateness, but he still felt sorry for Yu Qian's death.

"Okay, tell you these things don't make you sad, put away your little daughter's posture!" Seeing Zhang Weixian's appearance, Zhang Rong said angrily: "I'll tell you, don't think nonsense, you will do whatever Your Majesty tells you to do." ”

"Your Majesty will definitely not just take back the capital camp and finish it, there will definitely be other actions."

"Work hard in Jingying, lay your own foundation, anyway, you are acting according to His Majesty's will, and everything is worry-free." Zhang Rong said this, and said in some silence: "Even if you can't do anything in the end, the British government will have no problem saving your life." ”

Zhang Weixian has a black line, what does it mean to save his life!

Glaring at Zhang Weixian, Zhang Rong said directly: "Did you hear it, do it well, don't care what other relatives think, lay your own foundation, bring your own soldiers, you watch, sooner or later it will be useful." ”

"Grandpa, didn't you say that Zhang Juzheng would become the second Yu Qian, right?" Hearing this, Zhang Weixian was shocked, could this be the reason why grandpa said Yu Qian to himself?
