Chapter Seventy-Eight: Zhang Juzheng Returns to Beijing
The training of the Beijing camp began, but this news did not set off much public opinion in the capital, because an even more exciting news came out, the emperor ordered Zhang Juzheng to return to Beijing, and the will has reached the cabinet.
Those who support it rejoice, and those who oppose it are like mourners, but everyone knows that Zhang Juzheng's return to the dynasty is already unstoppable.
There are now four cabinet ministers in the cabinet, and no one of them will oppose Zhang Juzheng's return to the court, and since the will has reached the cabinet, then the matter is a foregone conclusion. Sure enough, soon the cabinet drew up a holy decree and officially announced that Zhang Juzheng would return to the court.
Wang Guoguang, the new official of the imperial court, also wrote a letter to express his attitude as soon as possible, and the whole thing was completely settled.
Inside the Forbidden City, Zhu Yijun listened to Zhang Jing's reports to him one by one, and the expression on his face did not change in the slightest. I've almost done my own thing, and it's time for Zhang Juzheng to come back and do what he hasn't done.
"Alright, no need to say it!" Zhu Yijun waved his hand and interrupted Zhang Whale's continued report.
Things are also progressing very quickly, after the will arrived in Jiangling, although Zhang Juzheng's side was on the fold of shirking, but after two back and forth, Zhang Juzheng set off, left Jiangling's hometown, and officially came to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
In fact, many people are worried about Zhang Juzheng's return, after all, because of the love incident, it was very troublesome at the beginning.
It's okay if Zhang Juzheng doesn't come back, but if Zhang Juzheng comes back, it will be really a big trouble.
Zhu Yijun didn't bother to care what these people thought, he now looked at the information of another person, this person was Wang Yongji. The last time Zhu Yijun asked Zhang Whale to check on him, now the results of the investigation have been placed on Zhu Yijun's table.
"Let's talk about it!" Zhu Yijun didn't flip the folds, but asked Zhang Whale directly.
"Yes, Emperor!" Zhang Whale bowed down and said: "Wang Yongji, the word is clearly acceptable, Jinjiang people." The minister asked people to go to Jinjiang to investigate, although the Wang family is not rich, but the family is also wealthy, and they are more kind to their neighbors on weekdays, and they are kind and charitable. ”
Zhu Yijun nodded, in fact, the family background of the scholars in this era is not too bad, and you can't afford to read if you are too poor.
Unless, like Hai Rui, his widowed mother provides him with education, he really comes from the lowest level of society. Perhaps it was also this experience that made Hai Jui hate corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and he had no good impression of the family.
Born in poverty, if you are successful in reading, you must be worthy of the books you read, so you have the title of Haigangfeng.
In fact, many people criticize Hai Rui, but Zhu Yijun doesn't see it that way, the gentry of this era are really not good, even if the family is an official family, it is common to oppress the people, this is the atmosphere of the whole society.
Many times they don't leave a head and end in their work, you know that they lack virtue and do bad things, you just can't do anything about them.
Hai Jui directly "would rather yield to the rich than the poor" or a little extreme, but to a large extent he defended those good people who were oppressed. As for some people's false accusations, Zhu Yijun doesn't think that people in this era have the courage to do so.
It is not easy to tell the rich from poverty in any era, let alone in the Ming Dynasty, there are a hundred ways to force your whole family to death.
If it's not really people who can't live anymore, or who have been wronged, they have the guts? Even if someone makes false accusations, it is estimated that there will not be many. Zhu Yijun also didn't believe that Hai Rui would be confused to the extent of wronging people, and Hai Rui grew up from the bottom no matter what he said.
Jealousy is like hatred, sex is like fire, but such a person is not stupid, he grew up at the bottom, he knows a lot about how those heroes oppress the people!
"Wang Yongji didn't have any bad deeds when he was studying, but he had a strong personality and dared to say his feelings. The old slave found out about one thing, when there were Japanese pirates in the southeast, Wang Yongji's hometown was also attacked by the Japanese pirates, and the imperial court dropped a lot of troops to exterminate the Japanese pirates. ”
"At that time, these foreign armies were rampant and domineering, disturbing and cautious, and when the imperial envoy of the imperial court went, the king of all beings at that time met with the imperial envoy and told the imperial envoy about it. The prefect at that time asked Wang Yongji, what does this matter have to do with you? ”
Hearing this, Zhu Yijun sighed helplessly.
"Wang Yongji said, 'When Fan Xiwen showed his talents, he took the world as his own responsibility, and the disaster of the Xiangjing was not related to all living beings?' , The old slave also inquired about many people, and Wang Yongji took Fan Zhongyan as an example when he was studying, and he was very respectful of his feelings of worrying about the country and the people. ”
Zhu Yijun knows something about the guest soldiers disturbing the place, and a big reason is because the guest soldiers have no money.
Far away from home to fight, to put it bluntly, it is a life-threatening business, but the court is short of salary, and there is no pension, these people can't eat, how can they not make trouble, and later it developed to eat overlord meals on the street, disturbing and cautious.
The court had no money at that time, and if there was money, Yan Song took it home, or it was alchemy by Emperor Jiajing.
Emperor Jiajing may not be bad at scheming, but he really spent a lot of money on alchemy and burning the palace. The money used to rebuild the palace was used to train troops to exterminate the Japanese invaders, and the Japanese invaders had long been pacified. With the addition of Yan Song's party, it was really a dark era at that time!
"Didn't you find any bad deeds?" Zhu Yijun came back to his senses and saw that Zhang Whale stopped talking, so he continued to ask.
"Back to the emperor, no bad deeds were found, in the second year of Longqing, Wang Yong won the Jinshi and awarded Huai'an to promote the official. Moved to Changde Tongzhi slightly, and became a member of the household department. The evaluation of the officials is all superior, and there is no corruption or bribery. ”
Zhu Yijun nodded, this is really not easy in this era.
First, the family has money and can afford his expenses, and second, he is also a decent person, otherwise how could he not be greedy.
Zhu Yijun thought for a while and said: "Let's see if there is a shortage in Nanjing, and arrange to go to Nanjing!" ”
Zhang Whale almost thought that he had heard it wrong, and it took so much effort to check it, and he was sent directly to Nanjing? But he didn't dare to ask, and hurriedly said: "Yes, the old slave will arrange it immediately, Emperor, is this official position promoted?" ”
"L!" Zhu Yijun said without thinking about it: "Now he is a member of the household department, let's be promoted to a langzhong!" ”
The thirteen divisions of the household department, since the reign of Ming Xiaozong, the public office is not large, and only one person is left to govern things. Outsiders and directors can only attend on the day of the award, and in fact they are only named. To put it bluntly, Wang Yongji is now messing around.
"Is there a problem with Wang Yongji's promotion?" After saying this, Zhu Yijun suddenly asked.
According to Wang Yongji's experience as an official, from being an official to being a fellow official, this is a normal promotion, according to the officialdom, he should be promoted to the prefect of the lower house, and he should not go to any of the nominal outsiders in the household department!
"Emperor, this Dongchang hasn't been found, why don't you go and check it?" Zhang Whale hurriedly spoke.
"No need, Chen Sesame rotten grain, give Wang Yongji a Langzhong in Nanjing, and promote a waiter in Nanjing in two years." Zhu Yijun just asked casually, he didn't bother to check what happened a few years ago.
