Chapter 2 Whispers in the Car

"Yunming, there is some misunderstanding between me and Su Qing (Gao Gongzi), that is a matter between us, it should not affect your normal relationship with him, he likes you very much, you can interact with him generously, don't worry about me. If I don't even have that kind of self-cultivation, then it's not me. ”

In the car, Zhang Juzheng was facing the situation and was right.

Besides, he knew the reason for the conflict between Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng.

After Emperor Jiajing died of illness, Xu Jie, the first assistant, was responsible for drafting the edict and the edict of the new emperor's accession.

Gao Gong, who has always felt that he is a head taller than Zhang Juzheng, is naturally annoyed, but because of his friendship with Zhang Juzheng for many years, he has not spoken ill of him, which is already rare in Gao Gong.

It is said that Zhang Juzheng should find Gao Gong to explain this matter well, the problem is not from him, this mustard glass of wine can be relieved, but Zhang Juzheng is also an arrogant and negative person, resolutely not explaining, in fact, he refuses to lower his figure, and the friendship between the two for many years began to crack.

Besides, it was only after coming to Beijing that I learned that Zhang Juzheng turned out to be Xu Jie's protΓ©gΓ©, but it was just the relationship between the teacher and the student, not the teacher, for example, Zhang Juzheng and Xu Jie, just like his relationship with Lian Daning, and Lian Daning and Xu Jie were like his relationship with Chen Musa. There is an essential difference between a teacher and a teacher, one is face, and the other is heart.

In the officialdom, the seat teacher may be more powerful, because the general seat teacher is the great Confucian who presides over the imperial examination, and the status is usually much higher than that of the teacher.

"Adults are worried about it, adults and Su Qinggong have been suffering together for many years, and a little thing has passed." Besides, he laughed.

"Don't you hear that you can share in adversity and hardship, but not wealth and prosperity?" Zhang Juzheng said with a smile.

Besides, I didn't dare to say more, even the emperor was said to have a headache about the matter between these two people, and he couldn't make up for them. He is a scholar in white, and he is soft-spoken, so it is better not to say it.

He could see that Zhang Juzheng didn't care much about this matter, otherwise he wouldn't have taken a non-conciliatory attitude, and this rift between them may have been buried a long time ago, but it was just stimulated by this incident, and the secret was naturally unknown.

The sedan was driving on the royal road, and the officials in front and behind were retreating to the major yamen, and the two sat in the car and did not speak for a while.

"Who do you say Su Qing is compared to the ancients?" Zhang Juzheng suddenly asked.

Besides, after thinking about it, he said with a smile: "This is not easy to compare, after all, there are no two people who are completely similar, if you are reluctant to compare, I think Su Qinggong can be compared to Song Zhikou." ”

"Kou Zhun? You can't help but exalt him, but Kou Zhun has prompted the alliance of the Yuanyuan and established the meritorious service of the society. Zhang Juzheng was slightly surprised.

"Of course, the two are not completely similar, as I said, there are no two people who are completely similar in history, they are just barely compared." Besides.

"Okay, you go on." Zhang Juzheng was obviously very interested in this young talent, and he was very tolerant of him.

"I think that Kou Zhun was talented, sharp, good at reading and not abiding by rules and sentences, shrewd and strong in governance, energetic, often felt that the world was not enough, but he lacked subtlety, and even sometimes forgot the etiquette of the monarch and ministers, he once in the palace because Song Taizong did not agree with his opinion, so he pulled Song Taizong's sleeve and did not let Song Taizong return to the inner palace, even Song Taizong finally felt intolerable to him. Su Qinggong is similar to Kou Zhun in all aspects, and he may inevitably be able to overpower the lord in the future. ”

Besides, this is because Gao Gong didn't put the mother and son of the Divine Sect in his eyes later, and said the last sentence. In fact, many times now the high arch has been arbitrary, even Emperor Longqing often has to bend to it.

"Well, that's a bit like that. So how am I like the ancient man of old? Don't compliment me with false words, I won't follow it. Zhang Juzheng laughed, and a beautiful hair fluttered under his chin.

Zhang Juzheng also has the reputation of a beautiful bearded man.

"It's hard to say which ancient person an adult looks like, but I have an expectation, that is, an adult can be a king." And smiled.

"Wang Dan? Emperor Zhenzong's name, you think too highly of me. Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. Zhang Juzheng laughed again.

"Wang Dan and Kou Zhun are the same year as Jinshi, the two have been ministers in the same hall for decades, Wang Dan is the prime minister's house, Kou Zhun is the Privy Council, and they jointly assist Zhenzong and create a generation of prosperity. The Lord and Su Qinggong have been assisting for many years, although there is no difference between the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Privy Council, but in the mind of today, it is estimated that one is the first assistant and the other is the second assistant, although Prime Minister Xu is still in the position of the first assistant, but who is the real first and second assistant, I believe that the emperor understands it in his heart, and many ministers also understand it in their hearts. ”

"You're too early to tell." Zhang Juzheng sighed.

"My lord, please forgive me for my nonsense." Besides, I don't want to do it.

"What's this, we're talking in private, not at the court meeting. However, you are very right about Su Qing's evaluation, but you overestimate me, Wang Dan was deeply trusted by Zhenzong back then, and the emperor's family was very long, and he was deeper than Kou Zhun Dejun, if you use this measure, Su Qing is Wang Dan. ”

"Su Qinggong may not be able to be Wang Dan, but he lacks the elegance of being a prime minister. The prime minister can hold the boat in his belly, and this is what Su Qinggong lacks. Besides.

"Well, if you say that I will never lack elegance and self-cultivation, it is okay, just use your words as words of encouragement, to see if I can be the king of today's Dan in the future." Zhang Juzheng lifted his beard and smiled.

The next thing for the two to talk about some trivial matters, Zhang Juzheng mainly wanted to understand Chen Musa's situation, and even asked about some personal and family matters, and when he was about to arrive at Zhang's mansion, Zhang Juzheng suddenly said: "Yunming, I came out a little late when I retired from the court, and it was an adult inside who kept me and asked me to tell you, saying that the emperor has been too busy in recent days, and he will definitely summon you alone in a few days." So that you don't feel left out. ”

Besides, I was inexplicably a little moved in my heart, and the emperor hadn't forgotten him.

At the court meeting, he was in the last few rows of the crowd, and he only saw the emperor from a distance, but he found that when the emperor looked at him, a eunuch whispered a few words in the emperor's ear, maybe it was to introduce him to the emperor.

The adult in Zhang Juzheng's mouth is naturally the eunuch of the inner court and the emperor's personal celebrity.

Saying goodbye to Zhang Juzheng, besides, he walked home, but he didn't enter the house but saw the car riding like a cloud, so lively.

Seeing this posture, he knew that it was the little prince's senior brother who was coming.

This time the emperor's enthronement ceremony, civil and military officials and princes and relatives from all over the country also came to Beijing to worship, and the envoys of various countries naturally did not fall, which can be described as a grand occasion.

Because of the guard in the south of the Yangtze River, Wei Guogong was not allowed to enter Beijing to worship, so he had to appoint the little prince to participate in the ceremony, which was to show loyalty to the new emperor.

"Son, it's time to call you Lady Kuang." The leader of the little prince's guards stepped forward and said with a smile.

"What adults and villains are, it's all." Besides, smiling and patting him on the shoulder, it was still the same expression and posture as before.

These guards are very familiar with him, and many of them have followed him to attack Fengyang, and they all came to congratulate him at this time, in fact, they are taking the opportunity to ask for a reward.

Moreover, they responded one by one, promising to immediately distribute two hundred taels of silver to each person as happy money, and these guards were eager to shout long live, and lifted them up and carried them into the mansion.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing here, kidnapping my junior brother." The little prince looked at the situation that was carried in by the guards, and pretended to have a grim expression, but he couldn't hold back the smiling face of Lehuahua.

When the guards saw that Xiao Nier was here, they quickly put it down and went out with a few grins.

"Senior brother, when did you arrive, why didn't you give me a move, I'll go out of the city to pick you up." Besides, he was dressed and smiled.

"I only arrived last night, and I almost couldn't get into the city gate. I originally wanted to come directly to you, but there were some people in the circle who were traveling with me, so I didn't come, or you wouldn't want to stop overnight. ”

The people in the circle that the little prince said are naturally the sons of the princes who are similar to them, and it stands to reason that they are also people in this circle, but he has never been close to this circle, and slowly no one regards him as a person in this circle.

"Haha, sister, look at whether his flying fish suit looks good, let me tell you, many princes and princes are desperately trying to enter the Jinyi Guard, in order to get this dress to wear, not the Jinyi Guard, even if you are a second-class member, without the emperor's reward, you can't wear this dress." The little prince looked at the appearance of wearing a flying fish suit and laughed.

"Haha, don't say it, it's really a bit of an upstart in the court." Zhou Dingcheng also smiled.

Besides, he sighed, what an upstart, he is still in dire straits, on the way to Beijing, he has been attacked and assassinated many times, and he still doesn't understand that it was all done by those people.

Although it is said that when they arrive in the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the safety factor is higher, but if those people are too big, even the feet of the Son of Heaven will not be able to shock them.

"Why did you come back so late, it couldn't be that the emperor summoned you alone, right?" The little prince asked.

"Where, it was Master Zhang who pulled me into his car and gossiped a little."

Besides, he changed into homely clothes, and then sat down to drink tea and talk with the little prince.

"Zhang Taiyue, you'd better keep a little distance from him, he has a very delicate relationship with Gao Gong now, Chen Yiqin and Gao Gong have essentially collapsed, and the three heroes of Yuwangfu back then are about to become enemies now." The little prince reminded.

"I know who I am, and I don't know what people are at all. To the big guys, I'm an insignificant pawn. "Besides, I took a sip of tea.

"I can't say that, but I heard that the emperor was supposed to meet you alone after the court meeting today, but unfortunately Gao Gong stopped him." The little prince said.

"What, the emperor wants to summon me alone?" And I was a little surprised.

"Who is Gao Gong, why is he so bad?" Xiao Nier was dissatisfied.

"Gao Gong is not bad, mainly because this summoning was facilitated by Xu Jie, not by him, of course it must be blocked." The little prince said.

Besides, he didn't care whether the emperor summoned him or not, he thought of what Zhang Juzheng said to him at this time, and it seemed that the emperor was also a little helpless, so he had to give him a message, probably because he was afraid that he would be cold after knowing the truth.

But he was confused, what was important to him, why did the emperor summon him so quickly?
