78. Borrowing someone else's knife
The fire was beeping and burning, and the smell of Chinese medicine in the room was extremely hot, but my heart was extremely cold. At this moment, I can deeply understand the loneliness in the heart of Zhang Juzheng, the only famous minister in the Ming Dynasty. If you want to make up for the sky with one hand, you don't know how to know the world. In front of him there are both open guns and hidden arrows, and more importantly, even the background of the struggle he has been fighting for is fake.
What a kind of loneliness this is. If it were me, I would have abandoned it a long time ago!
Zhang Juzheng looked up at the canopy, pursed his lips, and was silent for a long time. But he suddenly turned his head to look at me, and seemed to say with interest: "Qilan, what do you think?" I mean, the handling of this matter. ”
I was silent for a while, and then I whispered, "There is a saying in the Babylonian Code of Hammurabi that the younger generation likes very much!" ”
As I spoke, I stared at Zhang Juzheng with burning eyes and said, "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!" ”
Zhang Juzheng stared at me for a while, then suddenly smiled, and said for a while: "Your style really seems to be the practice in the army." But sometimes, some people, some things, your approach may not be appropriate. You're still young after all! ”
I looked up and looked silently at this thin, but imposing man.
He smiled and asked, "What are you going to do?" Let Wu Yihuang's family die in an accident? Or let Zhang Siwei suffer a catastrophe? You must know that one Wu Yihuang fell, and more Wu Yihuang stood up. Because, the root is not here! Is it ......?"
He looked at me with a smile and said, "Do you want to move the supreme dragon vein in order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots?" ”
I was secretly frightened, but an astonishing thought flashed through my mind. But before it could sprout, it quietly extinguished.
Zhang Juzheng said with a smile: "So, sometimes, the conspiracy doesn't work, so let's use the yang scheme!" ”
I asked, "What is a scheme?" ”
Zhang Juzheng said: "Yangmou is nothing more than taking advantage of the situation and being above board. It also builds momentum, borrows momentum, uses momentum, moves with the momentum, and combines the geography of the sky, such as a flood bursting the embankment, everyone can see but have no way, only to wait for death. ”
I lowered my head and tried my best to understand this sentence, but some of the second monks were confused.
Zhang Juzheng didn't interrupt me in a hurry, but made me think for a while. After a long time, I looked up and said, "The younger generation is difficult to understand the deep meaning, and I hope that the senior will give me advice!" ”
Zhang Juzheng said with a smile: "Do you think the current imperial court is wrestling?" ”
Without thinking, I said, "Naturally, it's three-sided. ”
Zhang Juzheng asked with a smile: "What about the three parties?" ”
I stared at him and said, "The seniors are one side, Zhang Siwei is the other, and there are ...... And the little emperor is also a party! ”
Zhang Juzheng smiled: "Then which side do you think is the strongest?" Which side is the weakest? ”
I thought for a moment and replied, "On the surface, we are the strongest, but in fact, it is the little emperor who has the most potential!" ”
Zhang Juzheng smiled: "Potential! Hehe, potential! Kai Lan Na! You see it very clearly. Although the little emperor is currently hidden behind the scenes, he actually sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight, and one day Zhang Siwei and I are tired, and he will rise one day! ”
I nodded but said disdainfully: "I'm just afraid that if I rise for a few days, there will be a grievance!" ”
Zhang Juzheng looked at me, didn't speak for a long time, and sighed for a long time: "That's what I can't do!" I'm not Kong Ming, and I will retire to Zhongda after I die! ”
After speaking, he looked at me with a smile and said, "Let's solve the current matter first!" Keep talking about Yangmou! ”
He smiled and asked me, "Qilan, you say, who is the first cool official in the world?" ”
Without thinking, I said, "Hai Jui! Thinking of this name, the center of my mind turned to say, "You mean, we use knives to kill people, kill chickens and monkeys?" ”
Zhang Juzheng laughed and said: "Smart child, sure enough, you can get it through at one point!" No wonder the eldest brother and third brother like you! Speaking of this, his expression darkened, but he forced himself to cheer up and said: "That's exactly what I mean!" I'm going to let Hai Jui enter Beijing! Be a quick knife in the capital! ”
I continued: "And the meat on the case is this series of clues! For a person like Hai Rui, this kind of thing that can win a clear name and a good name is like an alcoholic smelling good wine, and he will never give up halfway! ”
Zhang Juzheng looked at me with a smile, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Qilan, although you have not gained any fame, but your intelligence and scheming are no less than the champion of the dynasty!" ”
I smiled and replied: "I am not as good as the champion in dancing and writing, and governing the world." Adapt to the situation and decide on the spot, but the champion is not as good as me! ”
Zhang Juzheng nodded silently, and suddenly said: "When you see the eldest brother, you will say that the uncle knows his mistakes, but he has no regrets!" ”
Saying that, he sighed and said, "Isn't his grandson called Ye Buregret?" I guess he and I are in the same mind! ”
I nodded and said, "I'll definitely bring this!" ”
Zhang Juzheng stared at me and said, "Child, there is a long way to go, and you are too dazzling, everything needs to be careful!" However, everything has a certain number, and it can only be cherished! ”
I stood up and arched my hands, but said nothing. After saluting, he turned and went.
When I came out of the courtyard, I sighed and stared at him slightly for a while. This young man is loyal, resolute and brave, courteous and filial, and is a general, but he is not a handsome man who carries a piece of the world! Then I'll take good care of him!
On the road, I was not in a hurry to return to Juyong Pass, but turned around and went to the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War. Seeing Li Zaixing, I talked with his cat in the house for a long time, and I didn't eat after speaking, so I left in Li Huamei's send-off and returned to Wenhai Pavilion.
Li Huamei wondered why I had such an attitude, so she went to ask her father. Li Zaixing just twisted his beard and said for a long time: "It's better that you still don't know about this!" ”
Li Huamei grew up in the house of the official eunuch since she was a child, although she has a pungent personality, but she is very smart, and when she heard this, she immediately stopped speaking, just looked at the direction I was far away, and looked worried.
When I returned to Wenhai Pavilion, I called a group of henchmen and made arrangements one after another, and everyone went their own way. Nothing was said all night.
The next day, I set off to rush back to Juyongguan to take strict precautions and look for evidence, needless to say.
And above the court, after everyone had something to do, Wang Guoguang suddenly started to play, saying that before the successive wars, there were many rogues who infiltrated the Beijing Division, and the Beijing Division was in mourning, the people were complaining, and the officials also had many ill-intentioned people.
In order to clean up politics and rectify the government and the opposition, it is planned to announce the transfer of Nanjing Grain Reserve Hai Rui to Beijing, and promote him to the left deputy governor of the Inspectorate, who is in charge of supervision, impeachment and recommendations.
Mingshenzong Zhu Yijun has always attached importance to Hai Rui's reputation, and he has long been willing to use it, but because Zhang Juzheng really dislikes Qingliu, especially dislike Hai Rui and diehards, he has never been able to fulfill his wish.
Today, Wang Guoguang suddenly came to such a cold spot, which made Zhu Yijun a little puzzled, didn't this Wang Guoguang always wear a pair of pants with Zhang Juzheng? Why did you suddenly jump out of such a play today? Ten thousand question marks suddenly hoarded in my mind.
So the little emperor Zhu Yijun turned his head to look at Zhang Juzheng who was standing on the side, and asked softly, "Shoufu, what do you think of this discussion?" ”
Zhang Juzheng bowed and replied: "The minister thinks that this matter should be studied by the cabinet and voted for opinions. As for the minister himself......" he said with a deep groan.
Zhu Yijun said in his heart: I knew that you were not happy, so I just asked.
Zhang Siwei and the others looked at Zhang Juzheng without blinking, if Zhang Juzheng objected, they would speak out in support. In the imperial court, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, even if he can't get his wish in the end, or just give Zhang Juzheng a mess, this pretentiousness is very worthwhile.
As for the other officials, their hearts are mostly rat-headed and two-ended, seven up and eight down. However, most of them are still very skeptical.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Juzheng pondered for a moment and then said loudly: "What Wang Shangshu said is really a social plan. Hai Rui is known for his name, and he can investigate and judge cases, and he is really a good talent in the Inspectorate! The courtier's selfishness is agreed. However, according to the Da Ming law, it is necessary to go through the cabinet vote to draft opinions before it can be reported to the emperor for a holy ruling. ”
The words were dignified and righteous, and for a while the court was silent. Not to mention that Zhang Siwei and Wu Yihuang are difficult to accept, even everyone in Zhang Juzheng's camp felt inexplicably surprised, this is really the sun rising in the west, which is rare to see in a thousand years. Only Wang Guoguang and Li Zaixing's eyes flashed with a glimmer of essence.
Mingshenzong Zhu Yijun pondered for a moment, suppressed his complicated mood of half happy and half unknown, looked at Zhang Juzheng and said with a smile: "In this case, please ask Shoufu to organize the cabinet to study it!" ”
Zhang Juzheng bowed down to receive the order.
The cabinet at this time, to put it bluntly, is Zhang Juzheng's word. Zhang Juzheng said yes, then it must work; Zhang Juzheng said no, even if it doesn't work.
Therefore, when Hai Rui entered Beijing, Zhang Juzheng, a prophet and a forerunner, led Wang Guoguang, Li Zaixing and several other late realizers, and unconsciously reached a consensus to agree with the opinions of the officials.
So the next morning, when Zhang Juzheng played and the cabinet agreed to the ministry's announcement of Hai Rui's admission to Beijing and asked the emperor to adjudicate it, the little emperor Zhu Yijun's excited hands were trembling slightly.
He's nineteen years old! It's been almost ten years since he succeeded to the throne! But in all fairness, although every thing that went out of this Eight Treasures Golden Hall and proclaimed the will of the external party came from his golden words, in reality, almost none of them were what he really wanted to do.
There is Empress Dowager Li in the harem and Zhang Juzheng in the previous dynasty, these two people are like two mountains, pressing on his head, so that he does not have a trace of pleasure as the emperor's command.
Especially in recent years, as he has grown older and his knowledge has become richer and richer, he has become more and more aware that the man in front of him, who has been sheltering him from the wind and rain, is actually a wall that prevents him from moving forward, a mountain blocking the sea of stars, and a gap that blocks the road to happiness!
He wants to change, wants to have the final say, and wants to be a real emperor, but Zhang Juzheng is talented and strategic, and the Ming Dynasty does see the hope of ZTE because of his existence!
Although he is the emperor, for the sake of the name of Mingjun and the Taiping of the world, he said it more thoroughly, in order to be able to sit firmly on this dragon throne under the internal and external torment!
I had to support the old man in front of me.
But today, one thing, something that I have thought about for a long time, but was rejected and denied by Zhang Juzheng for a long time, passed smoothly! It's a big win in life! It's a triumphant sonata! It's the of the superiors!
Although Zhu Yijun's face was so calm, because of his emotion, he was a little distracted and didn't speak for a long time.
When he came to his senses, he suddenly found that hundreds of civil and military officials, including Zhang Juzheng, were looking at him, and his face was suddenly a little embarrassed.
But he immediately took out the majesty of the emperor, forced himself to calm down, and said loudly: "Since the officials have carefully inspected and the cabinet has studied and agreed, I will play it!" Intended! Nanjing grain storage Hairui, meteorological rock, end-square, prudent and honest, both ability and political integrity. Admitted to Beijing, he was appointed as the left deputy governor of the Sanpin Inspectorate, and was in charge of supervision, impeachment and recommendations. Titled a first-class viscount, he was promoted to the prince's guest, and often stood on the side to police the East Palace. ”
There was a big uproar! In addition to giving Hai Rui administrative positions, Emperor Zhu Yijun also gave him knighthoods and court positions, which many officials did not get in their lifetimes, but they were taken by a stubborn and stinky old man like Hai Rui without knowing it!
How many people are unhappy in their hearts, how many people are afraid, and how many people have doubts in their hearts.
There is a saying that there is no wind and no waves, and no one knows what kind of bloody storm will be set off behind this inexplicable decision!
While Zhang Juzheng bowed down to receive the order, the corners of his and Zhu Yijun's mouths showed an elusive but fleeting smile at the same time.
