After Zhang Fan walked out of the palace. It was still a little short of noon. Plus, it's summer. The sky was also clear and cloudless. Although it is not yet a scorching sun. But the weather in the north is dry. Even if it's not too hot. It also makes people feel irritated.

Especially Zhang Fan at this time. Although he hadn't done anything before. But what he said just now. There is also about the emperor Zhu Yijun. and thoughts about your future. It really gave him a headache. Plus, it's noon. I was also a little hungry in my belly. Zhang Fan felt a little powerless.

Although said today. He and Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao. It can be regarded as having made Empress Dowager Li nod and agree to Zhang Juzheng's reform of the rule of officials. That is, the passage of the "test method". But after all, the stakes are high. Even if you can't be too cautious. So before Zhu Yijun officially issued a holy decree to the imperial court. They still need to think a lot about it.

On each of these items. It is necessary to think about it more carefully. See if there's anything else you haven't thought of. Or what holes will be left for people to drill. After all. It's just the three of them. Not to mention. Feng Bao just provided some information and said some good things in front of the Empress Dowager Li. And Zhang Fan even had a lot of help in the process of Zhang Juzheng trying to find a way. also personally helped Zhang Juzheng come up with a lot of ideas. But not much.

And Zhang Juzheng. Even he was indeed very intelligent. But. Once this holy decree was issued by Zhu Yijun. Obviously, it will cause the majority of people in the DPRK and China to disagree. What will happen then. That's just what you can imagine now. including what ancestral laws should not be easily changed; There are a large number of officials in the DPRK and China. A bold change in the rule of law would have made the ministers dissatisfied. Thus giving birth to trouble; Some people even go to extremes. Do something they wouldn't expect right now.

But these are troublesome though. But it's not in sight. Because both Zhang Juzheng and Zhang Fan understand it in their hearts. Through today's things. Empress Dowager Li and Zhu Yijun will inevitably agree to use this "test method" to verify the officials in the court. There will inevitably be resistance. But this is not insurmountable. Ministers, even if they are too strong. But this is a holy decree after all. Moreover, the cabinet led by Zhang Juzheng himself naturally would not reject what he proposed. So. Even the ministers of the court and the central government will be unhappy about this. But a holy decree is a holy will. Since the emperor has issued a holy decree. The Cabinet also passed. Then it must be implemented.

So. In the promulgation and implementation of the "Examination Law". They're bound to run into some trouble. Of course. Those troubles aren't necessarily small. But. They know it all in their hearts. The "test method" will inevitably be passed and implemented. So. Now they don't have to worry about these things.

And what they really need to worry about. It was in the process of implementing the "test law" in the imperial court. Over time. Could there be any other problems? To know. The Ming Dynasty will be vast. The people are multiplying. Therefore, there are many officials in need.

And now. Although the "test method" proposed by Zhang Juzheng seems to be flawless. And it can somewhat eradicate the degeneration of most officials. It can also detect a large number of corrupt officials and corrupt officials.

But. The problem is what they have to face. And it's not just a dozen corrupt officials. Or three or five high-powered corrupt officials. What they're up against. It was the entire Ming Dynasty. Hundreds of officials. There is a saying that "three stinkers beat Zhuge Liang". And now Zhang Juzheng is full, and there are only three of them. But you have to follow thousands of people to do it. Even Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Fan and Feng Bao are indeed wise. But even they themselves don't believe it. Three people can beat hundreds of people.

Not to mention. How many of these thousands of people will be the ones they are going to target? Plus. When these people realize. Zhang Juzheng and others used such a method to treat them as targets. What will they do.

Even a worm will turn. Something drastic. It's possible. But most of these people are civil servants. And they're basically problematic officials. The so-called "problematic" seems to Zhang Fan. Then it is impossible to act impulsively. They will be greedy for life and afraid of death. Do everything possible to find a way to evade responsibility. The best thing is to keep what you've done unnoticed. Thus being able to continue. And more likely. Even if there is something wrong with being found out by the imperial court. I won't have much of a crisis for myself. At the very least, you have to get out of the way.

Plus the sheer number of these people. So it's not impossible that they'll join forces.

Imagine. Such a group of corrupt officials and corrupt officials gathered together. Brainstorming. Find out how to escape the "perfect" verification method set up by Zhang Juzheng and others. To know. There is no such thing as "perfect". Even the ancients. There may be a difference in the way it is expressed. But that doesn't mean they don't understand it.

in a strong fortress. It's always going to be overrun. So when these people get together and figure it out. Zhang Juzheng absolutely did not believe that they would not be able to think of anything to deal with themselves.

So. Whether it is Zhang Fan or Zhang Juzheng. Now the most important thing is. Try to improve the "test method" as much as possible. Even if it is perfected. It is also possible for others to find the flaws in it. But nowadays' efforts. But it can also make that chance smaller. Even if it can only be infinitely close to zero. But it is absolutely impossible to disappear completely. But that's enough.

After all, there are things in this world. No matter what you do, it's impossible to be perfect. So. Do your job now. That's the way to go.

Besides. Working so hard now doesn't mean anything. When the "Examination Law" was promulgated. Zhang Juzheng: They won't ask again. And will always follow the rules and regulations set out above. If something goes wrong along the way. Revision is also inevitable.

But those. It's not something that should be considered now.

This is just like a truth that Zhang Fan learned from his mentor in his previous life. "A chess master can take into account the situation in the next five moves. Chess grandmasters, on the other hand, only need to think about what to do next." As long as you can accurately grasp the situation in front of you. That's what makes it possible. And thinking too much. But it's not necessarily a good thing. After all, the future is the future. The future is flooded with too many variables. It's incalculable. What exactly will happen in the future. No one can tell.

Think of these. Zhang Fan's somewhat distressed mood was also slightly relieved. The thing in front of me is indeed in a hurry. But he wasn't in a hurry to the point of burning his eyebrows. If you are sad about this now. I'm afraid that in the future, when it actually happens. You may just think you really can't do it.

Since there is nothing to do now. Then don't push yourself too hard. After all, relaxation is the way to last. And always close to the words. But it's certainly not a good thing.

Having thought of these. Zhang Fan intends to carry out these reforms. Or the troubles from Zhu Yijun. Leave it all down for now. Don't think about it that much. After all, even if he wants to think about it now. But there was nothing for him to ponder. Since there are no worries. Why bother. Make yourself suspicious all the time.

Besides. As long as he can do his best. In the future, even when troubles come. It should be easy to deal with.

Of course. This does not mean that Zhang Fan can completely relax now. After all, helping Zhang Juzheng improve the "test method" is also a top priority. After all, what can be done now is getting better and better. The less likely it is to have problems in the future. And even what will happen in the future. However, the damage caused will also be correspondingly smaller.

Just like today. Although Zhang Fan has just come out of the palace. But if nothing happened to him this afternoon. It will inevitably go to Zhang Juzheng. But he studied with him.

And actually. The reason is not so simple. Although it is said that Zhang Juzheng's "examination method" to reform the rule of officials in the DPRK and China. And it's really important. But Zhang Juzheng's original intention was not here. The ambitions in his chest were not so shallow. What he wants to reform is the whole world. Therefore. Allowing the imperial court to promulgate and enforce the "examination law" was only his first step. There is still a long road ahead.

But. The "test method" is a foundation. If the foundation is unstable. And how can you build on it? So. Zhang Juzheng's main purpose at the moment is. It is necessary to ensure that this foundation can be laid steadily. Even if it's not foolproof. But there must be no major problems.

Zhang Fan naturally knows this. So he also had to go there again to talk to Zhang Juzheng. But. Definitely not now. At this time, Zhang Fan was very tired. What he wants to do most now. It's to get home. Have a nice lunch with your family. Take a good nap. Allow yourself to rejuvenate yourself. That way you can better devote yourself to your work.

Think again. Now at home. I already have a pair of children. And Luo Linger is also pregnant for nearly nine months. The time is not far off for his third child to come into the world. But what he was more worried about at the moment was not his own children. It's Luo Ling'er herself. After all, Luo Ling'er has some problems with her body. And what he wants most now is to be able to be by her side. Let her be less burdened. Don't worry too much.

Come to think of it. Zhang Fan's spirit has improved a lot. Turn over and get on the horse. and went to his own home.
