If you choose between Zhang Whale and Feng Bao, Zhang You will definitely choose Feng Bao, although Feng Bao has done a lot of corrupt things, but without his cooperation, Zhang Juzheng's reform will inevitably not be implemented smoothly. From this point of view, Feng Bao is at least a somewhat ambitious person.

Zhang Whale is different, in Zhang You's cognition, Zhang Whale is a villain who gets power, Feng Bao stepped down, although the biggest reason is because Emperor Wanli doesn't like it, but he is inseparable from him.

"Zhizhong Zhi" records that since Zhang Juzheng did not go to his father's funeral, more and more people in the inner court and the outer court were afraid of him, and the eunuch Zhang Whale was originally under the name of Zhang Hong, and he was an old man before the Wanli Emperor ascended the throne, knowing that the Wanli Emperor secretly hated Feng Bao's arrogance and domineering, so he designed to frame Feng Bao many times. Zhang Hong persuaded Zhang Whale, saying that Feng Bao was a person with backbone, and there were many benefits to keeping him. Zhang Whale didn't listen, but intensified. It wasn't until after Zhang Juzheng's death that the time was ripe, and Emperor Wanli finally ordered Feng Bao to go home and live idle, at that time Wanli was still a little afraid of Feng Bao, the big companion who underestimated him to grow up, Zhang Whale told him that since the decree was made, Feng Bao would not dare to disobey, which strengthened Wanli's confidence.

Liu Ruoyu, the author of "Zhizhongzhi", entered the palace in the middle and late stages of the Wanli Dynasty and became a eunuch, the content of the record is detailed and credible, and many gaps in the official history record are filled, and Shen Defu's "Wanli Ye is compiled" is the same, it is a masterpiece that has to be seen in the study of Ming history, for the content inside, Zhang You does not dare to say that it is like a stream, and the important content is still remembered very clearly.

He has always believed that if Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng, the best pair, can stay in power, Wanli Zhongxing is bound to continue, and after a long time, it may not be impossible to create a prosperous era again.

Therefore, he has always been prejudiced against Zhang Whale, who caused Feng Bao to step down, and even with it, he naturally doesn't like Xing Shangzhi, whom Zhang Whale trusts the most.

But Xing Shangzhi's words just now changed his opinion, no way, who made him admire the most in his life is the kind of person who has great wisdom - seeing the subtle things, knowing the trade-offs, being smart, but not playing clever, this is great wisdom.

Xing Shangzhi not only explained the purpose, but also subtly complimented Zhang You, and also conveyed the desire to befriend him.

Good, at least not hypocritical.

Zhang You found that he had to get to know this Xing Shangzhi again, so he raised his eyelids and looked at the other party intently.

Xing Shangzhi was very calm, his face did not rise a trace of impatience because Zhang Youliang did not answer for a long time, and his eyes met him, calmly and sincerely.

"Okay, since my father-in-law is high-minded, I won't be polite to my father-in-law, you are a friend, I Zhang You have made up my mind."

Xing Shangzhi's eyes flashed brightly, he smiled, and said, "Okay, confident enough, our family really didn't misunderstand you." ”

Unconsciously, when the two of them spoke, they were no longer polite, calling you and me, but neither of them felt anything wrong.

There is a saying called "white hair is like new, and the cover is like the old", which describes the feeling between the two.

"You are the most trusted person in Gonggong Zhang, you must know his thoughts, if my expectations are good, if there is no big Kong Ming lantern that has just been successfully released, I will definitely be more than lucky when I enter Beijing this time, right?"

"Since you guessed, it's no fun to hide it from you, that's right, according to the master's wishes, after bringing you to the capital, let you help the queen and the old lady become a white tiger...... Although you can't guess that it's to help the queen and the old lady, you should guess if you want to help someone remove their hair, right? If it really works, find a way to learn your method, and then you will naturally be useless, or kill or release, but it's just a thought of the master. According to what I know about the master, it is more likely to be killed. ”

I heard that it was to help the queen remove her hair, Zhang You was secretly happy, and said that this is sleepy someone sent a pillow, after seeing her, you have to help her take a good look, and you must not be like the historical record, after giving birth to a daughter, you can no longer give birth.

For some reason, talking to Zhang You made Xing Shangzhi feel very hearty, and with some kind of emotion similar to reciprocating the peach, he subconsciously said how Zhang Whale was going to treat Zhang You without concealment.

Zhang You felt more and more that he had not mistaken Xing Shangzhi, nodded and said, "Whether you believe it or not, even if I don't have that big Kong Ming lantern, I have a way to live." ”

Xing Shangzhi said: "Believe, because you are not a normal person at all, you know, just such a short conversation, so that our family has a kind of illusion, what I am facing is not a *milk* stinky hairy boy at all, but an old fox who has experienced the world." Even in the face of the old foxes who have become elite in the cabinet, that's just it, right? ”

Zhang You smiled, got up and paced a few steps on crutches, and suddenly turned around: "By the way, there is another question, are there many masters like you in the inner court?" ”

Xing Shangzhi was stunned, carefully inspected Zhang You, and only stretched out his thumb for a long time, and said with some emotion: "I didn't expect you to understand the method of internal cultivation, and over time, the achievement will definitely not be under our family...... You're not yet twenty, aren't you? With superb medical skills, a smart mind, and an understanding of cultivation, our family suddenly has a feeling that sooner or later, the master will regret getting you into Beijing. ”

Zhang You smiled reservedly and said, "You haven't answered my question yet." ”

Xing Shangzhi looked proud: "I don't dare to say that I am one of the best, but as far as I know, there should be no one who is my opponent." ”

Zhang You bowed his head slightly and said, "In this case, my safety will be entrusted to you when I enter Beijing this time." ”

Xing Shangzhi nodded simply and asked, "When are we leaving?" ”

"Tomorrow, there are some trivial matters, I have to explain them."

"Okay, let's leave early tomorrow morning." Xing Shangzhi stood up: "It's not long to stay, it's hard to come out, and I haven't taken care of the tricks, so I have to let Ning Yongquan spend a little more." ”

"That kid has ruined my mother's reputation, and you have to slaughter him for me." Zhang You has always been a cautious person, and it is rare to fall in love with Xing Shangzhi, so he naturally needs some eye medicine.

Xing Shangzhi laughed and said: "Our family has heard about this, don't worry, we will give you this breath." ”

Sending Xing Shangzhi away, ignoring the concerned expressions of Li Shuo and Mrs. Zhang, Zhang You first invited Guo Zaoqing to his room and talked with him secretly for a long time, before he came out and roughly told Li Shuo and Mrs. Zhang about the meeting with Xing Shangzhi not long ago, of course, in case they were worried, he did not mention that the purpose of this trip to Beijing was to remove the hair of Queen Wang, only said that it was to treat the nobles in the palace.

Mrs. Zhang was worried, and said: "Even if this Gonggong Xing is facing you, you can't take it lightly, these eunuchs are moody, maybe they will sell you one day!" ”

Li Shuo also said: "What your aunt said is reasonable, you can't have the heart to hurt people, you can't have the heart to defend people, and you can't trust these people too much." ”

Zhang You had a point, but he didn't want to argue with them, so he only nodded yes.

At a certain moment, Mrs. Zhang suddenly looked at Zhang Jialin and said to Zhang You: "You are leaving, I don't know when you will come back, now listen to your mother, do you want to marry Jialin, you kid give me a quasi-word......"

"Mother-" Zhang Jialin's face was hot when she suddenly attacked, she screamed in a long voice, twisted her face and rushed out, just went down the steps, and took Zhang You's answer, stopped her figure, and touched the door to listen.
