82. Who can defy the sky
Who killed Yue Fei, a famous general of the Song Dynasty? The history books smashed this pot to Qin Hui, saying that Qin Hui killed Yue Fei on trumped-up charges, so in front of the tomb where Yue Fei's bones are buried at the southeast foot of Qixialing in Hangzhou, the kneeling statue of Qin Hui and the other four has been kneeling for thousands of years.
But is that really the case? No matter how powerful Qin Hui is, he is just a courtier, and no matter how good his plan is, he can't decide anything, especially such a big matter as executing the military commander Yue Fei. Of course, it is not that Qin Hui is right, but that he is not the culprit who killed Yue Fei.
The emperor at that time, Zhao Gou, as the ninth son of Song Huizong, succeeded in the extraordinary autumn of Jingkang's difficulty. His father and brother were taken captive to the north by the Jin people, and if Zhao Gou actively resisted the war and relied on Yue Fei, Han Baohu and other main battle factions to attack Huanglong, then his father and brother still had the possibility of returning to Luan.
So the question arises, once this possibility becomes a reality and the two former emperors are back, then he, who has ascended to the throne on his own initiative in the face of national disasters, will fall into an embarrassing situation - the three emperors, who is the orthodox NO.ONE?
Moreover, in addition to being full of spirit and daring to make decisions, Zhao Gou is not good at writing and is extremely jealous. Therefore, if he is not suspicious of a military commander like Yue Fei, who has already formed an army and has strong cohesion, it will be a ghost.
Therefore, what Qin Hui did was just digging a pit for his political enemies, but it was Zhao Gou who really pushed Yue Fei down, which is the relationship between planners and decision-makers.
And we, led by Zhang Juzheng, who made a down payment, are also facing this problem.
Although Hai Rui has found out many of Zhang Siwei's problems—of course, this is inseparable from our great help—Emperor Zhu Yijun's attitude towards Zhang Siwei is extremely ambiguous, and it is certain that although he did not explicitly protect Zhang Siwei, he definitely had a resolute desire to protect Zhang Siwei.
Hai Jui shouted and demanded that the evil officials be severely punished, but the decision-making body of the three sessions would never write according to his intentions. In the trial documents, the expression "the circumstances are excusable and unreasonable" was also quietly changed to "the circumstances are unreasonable and the circumstances are excusable."
As for other aspects, Hai Rui has expressed his opinions fiercely on different occasions many times, but no one answered, and things are still pushed forward like this.
Behind everything, there seems to be a powerful force supporting Zhang Siwei, not wanting him to be knocked down. This force has never surfaced, but it is far more powerful than everyone who does.
For this situation, Zhang Juzheng knows that the force behind it is no one else, it is the person who sits in the court and calls himself the first assistant, and calls himself Mr. after leaving the court, when the son of heaven and Zhu Yijun of the Mingshen Sect!
Furthermore, what the emperor wants to protect is not Zhang Siwei, but a person who is against himself! Even if that person is not Zhang Siwei, but Li Siwei, Wang Siwei, Niu Siwei, and Ma Siwei, Zhu Yijun will do his best to protect him! It's just because he doesn't deal with himself. That's all.
This little emperor has behaved more and more like an emperor in the past two years! Am I in the right place to leave? Zhang Juzheng sometimes thinks, maybe I am gone, it will be a better and greater help to this little guy! The chicks have to learn to fly, and I can't protect them for the rest of my life!
What's more, Shengmien, Doumi, in this case, the more I do, the greater the unpleasantness caused?
No! I can't go yet! The reform is not yet complete! Give me two more years! No! One year!
Zhang Juzheng was shouting in his heart, but he knew that he didn't have much longevity left......
Standing under the plane tree in the courtyard, he punched the trunk hard, making a muffled sound of "bump"! The weight of his entire body pressed on the right fist that was struck, and he bowed his head deeply. He is remorseful, regretting his lack of self-love in life all these years! I regret that I didn't listen to the teachings and dissuasion of my master and eldest brother!
But now, regret is useless, what can be done now is to leave as much fire as possible!
The little emperor wants to check and balance himself and arrange people to confront him, which is understandable for the emperor's mental tricks, but Zhu Yijun, Zhu Yijun, you should know that all the reforms I have implemented are completely for the sake of your Zhu family! If you really let these people who openly and secretly oppose reform take the stage, are you still sitting so firmly in your dragon chair?
Zhang Juzheng gritted his teeth, he could almost have foreseen that if he hadn't pushed forward the reform himself, he wouldn't have rectified the rule of officials, cleared the land, implemented a whip law for so many years, and arranged for Qi Jiguang, Yu Daxuan, and Tan Lun to go north to garrison and build the Great Wall! The current Ming Dynasty should have been reduced to various points!
Which of these things I did was not for the sake of this Ming dynasty! Which one is for myself?
Why doesn't the little emperor understand, if he is still as stupid and corrupt as the previous emperor was during his reign, this is the Ming Dynasty! I'm afraid I won't be able to go far on the road ahead!
Am there anything wrong with what I am doing? What have I fought for myself since I became an official until today? In order to rectify the rule of officials, my own son didn't use it aggressively when he won the champion, isn't it just to avoid suspicion? Who is there in the family, and which one is the one who has touched my light? Except for Hai Jui's radical and unrestrained weirdo, who in the current dynasty is clearer, correct, and more diligent than me!?
Zhang Juzheng was standing under the tree, his heart fluctuating, but in the end, he was replaced by deep helplessness. In the final analysis, the surname is still Zhu!
He raised his head, stood up straight, suddenly looked up to the sky and sighed, then closed his eyes, silently raised his head, in the end, he had the ambition to return to the sky, but he had no power to go against the sky!
A gust of wind is blowing! Zhang Juzheng under the tree suddenly felt an irresistible dizziness, and for a moment he only felt that the world was spinning! He tried his best to hold on to the tree trunk next to him, but his knees weakened, his eyes were dark, and he collapsed to the ground!
When I was in a trance, it seemed that someone ran over......
When he woke up, Zhang Juzheng was lying on the couch, and on the edge of the couch sat Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang is a continuation of the string, since the early death of the original Gu family, the Wang family has supported the backyard of the Zhang family. Although she and Zhang Juzheng are not Qin Se and Ming, they are also in harmony.
Today, Mrs. Wang is sitting on the edge of the couch, and there are obvious tears in the corners of her eyes. Seeing Zhang Juzheng wake up, she exclaimed, "Master, you're awake!" You're finally awake! ”
Several people gathered around, and when Zhang Juzheng turned his head to look, there were the eldest son Zhang Jingxiu, the second son Zhang Sixiu, the third son Zhang Maoxiu and the fifth son Zhang Yunxiu, followed by the youngest daughter Zhang Youxi. The three eldest sons were all a little at a loss, and only the youngest son, Zhang Yunxiu, had a resolute expression and stood solemnly. Although the little daughter was in tears, she bit her lip tightly, held back her tears, and showed a smile when she woke up!
Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he has always loved his fourth son, fifth son and little daughter in private, and it is indeed true. It's a pity that the fourth son, Zhang Jianxiu, was appointed as the secretary of Nanzhen Fusi and was not allowed to come back.
Suddenly, he found that behind his sons and family members, there was still a person standing - it was the magical young man he wanted to see most at this time-Sun Qilan. And I was staring at Zhang Juzheng with burning eyes, and at this moment, we understood each other's thoughts very well.
Zhang Ju was struggling to sit up, and Wang shouted, "Master! You're just awake, lie down, don't get up! ”
Zhang Juzheng pushed her away, and the three sons had to help him sit up, Zhang Yunxiu quickly took the cushion and stuffed it behind Zhang Juzheng, so that he could rely on it.
Zhang Juzheng sat up, calmed his breath, stared at Sun Qilan and said, "Qilan stays, you guys go out first!" ”
Everyone was silent, knowing that Zhang Juzheng had something to say to Sun Qilan about the government, but they didn't dare to say anything, so they withdrew one after another. Before the Wang family went out, he pulled the placket of my clothes and whispered, "Qilan, let your second uncle and ancestor rest early!" ”
I nodded silently, and the Wang family went.
Seeing that everyone else was walking away, I took a few steps closer, and in order to make it easier for Zhang Juzheng to speak, I also pulled a small chair from the side and sat in front of him.
Zhang Juzheng stared at me for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Qilan, your master has a heavenly eye?" How can you see everything so clearly! Another excellent disciple like you! ”
I smiled bitterly silently and said in a low voice, "Second Uncle Ancestor, you have a good reputation. ”
Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said, "It's a pity that I don't have the ability and ability to change my fate!" He sighed.
I have mixed feelings in my heart. The end of a hero is always unbearable, but I don't know how to consol it.
Seeing that I was silent, Zhang Juzheng, who was proficient in the world and knew human nature, smiled and said: "Birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature!" Qilan doesn't have to be sad! Just ......"
He stared into my eyes and said, "It's just that the reform hasn't been completed yet, and I really can't let it go!" Can't let it go! Unwilling! ”
This is another problem that I can't solve, I sighed slightly and lowered my head slightly.
Zhang Juzheng smiled again and said softly: "This matter really shouldn't be imposed on you!" You've done well enough! So good that I was amazed! ”
Without waiting for me to answer, he continued: "Our Zhang family is loyal to the Ming Dynasty!" After I passed away, I was afraid that the environment would change drastically, and these children would follow him when they went and stayed! But I have one thing to ask for! ”
I straightened up and stared at him, he also stared at me and said: "Yun Xiu, he is the same age as you, open-minded and transparent, resolute and brave, and both civil and military, I have always liked this son the most." After my death, if something happens to the Zhang family, I just ask you to take Yun Xiu and Youxi away for the sake of the incense of several lifetimes, the kindness and righteousness of the same family, and the pleading of me, an old man! ”
Saying that, he sighed and said, "The eldest son, Jingxiu, has a stubborn personality and will never leave." The second son is too cowardly, and it is useless to take it away. The third son is too strong, and he is afraid that he will go away and think about revenge every day, but it is not what I want. ”
coughed a few times before continuing: "The fourth son, Jian Xiu, married the daughter of the governor of the three sides, and gave birth to a son Zhang Chongrun last year, so he won't die if he wants to, so he doesn't have to think about it." Moreover, I can't leave a reputation and say, as soon as my Uncle Zhang died, the Zhang family became fugitives one after another! Scold! I'm sorry for them, but the other three of them will look at the creation! ”
I nodded silently. Zhang Juzheng had a matter on his mind, leaned back on the cushion heavily, looked at the canopy and said with a smile: "I still have selfish intentions after all, I want to leave a queen for the Zhang family!" What kind of hard-hearted heart do you say Hai Rui can be so resolute and leave no descendants! ”
I sighed in a low voice, "He's just asking for mercy!" ”
Zhang Juzheng sat up and said in a deep voice: "What I ask for is only Daming Zhongxing!" So before I die, I must do everything I can! At least...... At least don't have any regrets! ”
On the second and third days, there was no speech, and Zhang Juzheng was recuperating at home. On the fourth day, Zhu Yijun of Mingshenzong sentenced the case of destroying the construction of the Great Wall of Juyongguan!
The main culprit Wu Yihuang, arson, murder, slander courtiers, is a heinous crime! He has committed suicide in fear of sin, and many of his family members have fled. Hunted down by the world, the three clans of this family are stabbed for three thousand miles!
The accomplice Li Youhuan, a thief, committed murder and was extremely vicious, in a vain attempt to destroy the construction of the Great Wall of Juyongguan, causing a large number of casualties. King James Ling Chi! The three clans of this family are thorned with three thousand miles!
There are a number of accomplices to the murderer, all of whom were sentenced to beheading, and they were beheaded together after the autumn!
Zhang Siwei, a scholar of the Middle Pole Temple, was mentally unclear and bewitched by thieves, so he was deprived of the title of young teacher and fined for three years.
In this way, the case of destroying the Great Wall of Juyongguan that made a lot of noise was raised high and gently put down. It can only be said that the arms can't twist the thighs after all, and the individual can't go against the sky after all!
