Time rolls forward like flowing water, and in a blink of an eye, it has entered March of the sixth year of Wanli. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The so-called spring March, at this time, the climate has completely warmed, coming out of the cold of winter, the ice and snow melt, and everything recovers. The fields and hills are full of green, and the well-known and unknown flowers and trees are growing vigorously. In the fields, there are already many farmers who have worked hard to plant seedlings and irrigate them, waiting for a good harvest when the time comes.

With the passing of the cold winter, the most talked about eunuch Bingbi in the whole winter, the widely publicized eunuch Bingbi, the governor of Dongchang, Feng Bao, was convicted, and finally ended up being sent to Fengyang to guard the mausoleum, and the result has gradually ceased to appear in the discussion on the streets and alleys and the people's after-dinner narratives.

This is naturally a normal thing. Although Feng Bao's status is extremely high and his power is also very great before, the distance between him and ordinary people and even low-level officials is still too far, everyone just looks up and watches, it is difficult to touch his true face, and his stay will not affect the lives of the people.

However, above the officialdom, Feng Bao's downfall still brought a lot of impact. Dozens of officials, big and small, have been implicated by him, convicted and sentenced, or removed from office. And the departure of these people, the vacated positions naturally gave another group of people a chance, and also made Feng Bao's influence in the officialdom completely disappear.

Another major impact is the decline of the East Factory. With the collapse of Feng Bao's big backer, the East Factory was completely crushed by Jinyiwei. And Jin Yiwei did not let go of such a good opportunity, taking advantage of the opportunity to search through the official offices of Dongchang under the pretext of confiscating Feng Bao's property, and finally found a lot of evidence that could convict Zhao Wuxian and others, and sent them to prison in one fell swoop.

By the time this turmoil passed, Dongchang was already dying, and could only survive. There are only some small characters who have little ability and guts, and even self-protection may not be able to do it, are still left in this dilapidated yamen where everything was taken away by Jinyiwei. If Yang Zhen didn't know that it was impossible for the emperor to allow him to completely destroy Dongchang, I'm afraid that these people might not have a chance to stay there. But even so, it is impossible for Dongchang to pose any threat to Jinyiwei in a few years.

On the contrary to the East Factory, Jinyiwei at this time also entered the spring of their development. This is reflected not only in the expansion of their numbers, but also in their power. With the defeat of Dongchang, the original jurisdiction of them naturally fell into the hands of Jinyiwei, and at the same time, Yang Zhen also implemented the plan that he wanted to do before but never wished-the previous supervision of the hundred officials of the imperial court that had been terminated for various reasons reappeared.

Countless spies infiltrated the major yamen and the mansions of the main officials in various capacities. Whether they knew it or not, these spies would regularly report what the officials had done in these two places, causing the officials in the capital to feel obvious pressure.

In this way, Jinyiwei gradually regained its former demeanor, and re-became the existence that made people talk about the tiger, and also made Yang Zhen, the big leader of Jinyiwei, reach a peak.

In the eyes of ordinary people, when things have come to this point, Yang Zhen, who has far more power in his hands than countless predecessors in the past, should already be satisfied, and he shouldn't have any worries in the future. But the fact is the opposite, as the power he holds grows day by day, the powerlessness and uneasiness in Yang Zhen's heart continue to increase, and the source of all this is naturally his ultimate goal Zhang Juzheng.

When Yang Zhen was still fighting with Feng Bao, although Zhang Juzheng's power was great, he didn't take it too seriously. This is because he needs to put most of his spirit on entanglement with Feng Bao, so that he can't really understand the huge power of Zhang Juzheng; Second, it was also because Yang Zhen's own strength was limited at that time, and his understanding of Zhang Juzheng was even more shallow.

But now, when he really defeated Feng Bao, and then turned his attention to this chief assistant of the dynasty, he found that his deep influence in the DPRK was by no means comparable to Feng Bao and his ilk, let alone a Jinyi Wei Zhenfu like himself, who did not even have few henchmen in the DPRK, could compete.

When dealing with Feng Bao, Yang Zhen could weaken his power by constantly fighting with Dongchang. But when facing Zhang Juzheng, it gave him a feeling that he had nowhere to start. Moreover, he believed that as long as he showed a little bit of his intention that he would be an enemy of Zhang Juzheng, the Manchu officials did not need Zhang Ge Lao to speak, and they would inevitably impeach individuals with a dense number of impeachments like raindrops, even if the emperor wanted to protect himself, he might not be able to keep it.

This is the illusion of distance. Just like when a person looks at a high mountain from a distance, although he feels that the mountain is extremely high, he does not feel too timid, and he believes that he can climb the highest peak. But when you come to the foot of the mountain and really look up, you will be conquered by the mountain that towers into the clouds. And in such cases, only those who are determined and have enough physical reserves can really climb to the top.

And Yang Zhen suddenly came to Zhang Juzheng, the highest peak in the world, without much preparation, when he looked up at Zhang Juzheng's height, even if he was confident, he didn't feel suspicious - can I really defeat this seemingly completely invincible opponent like I did with Feng Bao?

Historically, Zhang Juzheng was only defeated by time, by time, and by the laws of nature. Even with a Son of Heaven like Wanli, he didn't dare to attack him until after Zhang Juzheng's death. And Yang Zhen is just a small brocade guard under the Son of Heaven, does he have the ability to fight Zhang Juzheng? I'm afraid that all the people in the world who hear this statement will think that Yang Zhen is crazy, isn't he looking for death?

is the brother who has the closest relationship with him and is closely related, Yang Chen, the newly appointed member of the Ministry of Labor, who does not have any hope for this: "Erlang, although you are far more ambitious than ordinary people, and you are full of wisdom, and you have won the trust of Your Majesty, but in this matter, I still hope that you can think twice."

"As a veteran of the Three Dynasties, Zhang Juzheng's power in the court is not comparable to Feng Bao and his ilk, let alone someone like you and me can be an enemy. In my opinion, if you want to take revenge at the beginning, the best way is to wait, waiting for time to completely drag Zhang Juzheng to death. Anyway, in the tenth year of Wanli, he will die of a violent illness due to perennial fatigue. And now it's the sixth year of Wanli, and you only need to wait another four years to take revenge on the Zhang family. At that time, no matter what you want to do, no one will stop you, and there will even be countless people with you to deal with the Zhang family. Why do you have to fight for a moment? ”

Listening to his brother's words, Yang Zhen also fell silent. As a party concerned, he naturally knows better than his brother how unattainable the existence he is facing, and how difficult and dangerous it will be to fight Zhang Juzheng.

If he was just alone now, Yang Zhen might not have any hesitation. But now that he has his own relatives and lovers, and someone to care about, he will inevitably hesitate to let him do whatever it takes to fight this battle that seems to have almost no chance of winning.

But he gave up, really put everything back on track as his brother said, and took Zhang Juzheng away by the torrent of history, and he was really a little unconvinced. Yes, how much effort did it take me to finally eradicate Feng Bao, Zhang Juzheng's most effective helper, and then suddenly give up when I was about to reach my final goal? Will you be willing?

As if seeing Yang Zhen's struggle, Yang Chen continued to persuade bitterly: "Erlang, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Jingyun and the Yueying girl who is far away in Hangzhou. Can you bear to let them pay for your infatuation with you? What you have to face is Zhang Juzheng, a powerful minister who even overshadows the Son of Heaven, as long as you make a mistake and expose your flaws, the end will definitely not be better than Feng Bao. And they will lose you completely, and at worst, they will ...... And even if you are really cautious enough not to show the slightest flaw, with your current strength, you may not be able to really defeat Zhang Juzheng in just a few years. Don't think hard about it then, but you won't have a chance until four years later, when Zhang Juzheng has a problem with himself. If that's the case, it's all in vain. ”

Yang Zhen continued to listen quietly to his brother's persuasion, but the expression on his face became more gloomy and solemn. In fact, he had considered all of what Yang Chen said, but it was only because of the obsession in his heart that he had been ignoring them. And now, the elder brother pointed out all this, but it made him even more embarrassed.

"What choice should I make? Do you continue or give up? Should I put my plans off for their sake? Am I really willing to let Zhang Juzheng go like this? A series of questions kept swirling in Yang Zhen's mind, making his head feel a little painful.

"Erlang!" Yang Chen suddenly shouted again: "In addition to hatred, there are many things worth pursuing in life. Don't be blinded by your own obsessions, it's time to let go of something and seek true happiness. Don't forget, thousands of miles away in Hangzhou, Miss Luo is still waiting for you! Are you going to continue to let her down and let her youth waste on you? ”

The elder brother's voice kept ringing in Yang Zhen's ears like Hong Zhong Dalu, making his eyes suddenly flash and shrink, and a certain bad mood that had accumulated in his heart finally loosened: "Yes, Yueying She has wasted too much time waiting for me, I can't let her down anymore and make her wait for a long time!" ”

"Big brother, I figured it out, I will go to Hangzhou as soon as possible and marry Yue Ying back. And Jingyun, it's time for me to give her a name. At this moment, the gloomy color in Yang Zhen's eyes had gradually dissolved. It's just that the obsession in his heart doesn't know if it's still there......
