But no matter how good Zhang Siwei is, he is covered by the light of Zhang Juzheng, who is silent in the high arch, just like the scorching sun in the sky, without seeing the stars and moons, people don't realize that he has been the prime minister for ten years.

If you want to say that the previous high arch is just that, then the result is to promote his seniors, he is purely a new nen, and it is also appropriate to be low and small. But now Shoufu is silent, one term later than him. Zhang Juzheng's political life should have ended a long time ago, but he forced himself to become the last assistant and had to give way. The two firmly dominate the authority of the cabinet, he can only do errands of beating the side drum and beating his hands, and Zhang Juzheng has always looked at him badly, and even has the experience of taking him out of anger when he is not in a good mood.

Zhang Siwei could only endure silently, whether in front of or behind people, he never said a word of complaint, he always reminded himself not to "Zaifu, pretentious, at best, just a subordinate ear." Therefore, even in the smallest matter, he will never take matters into his own hands and disobey the two superiors. This kind of noble general situation and the taste of being deflated in private are too uncomfortable, the longer the days like this, the more pain Zhang Siwei accumulates, tossing and turning at night and unable to sleep, he doesn't know when it will come to an end.

The reason why he has been able to persist until now is because he believes that if he can't continue like this, the emperor will grow up, and the power will be reconstructed.

Finally, after five years of silently enduring it, the opportunity presented the death of Zhang Juzheng's father, when he heard Zhang's father's obituary at first glance, his first reaction was a sense of relief, he thought that Zhang Juzheng was about to return to his hometown to guard the system, and as soon as the man who put strong pressure on him left, the rest of the silence was not a few days away. The emperor has grown up and will no longer be deaf ears, and it is time for silence to pay for his weakening of imperial power over the years. The accounts of refuting the decree, cutting the ceremonial supervisor, and withdrawing the East Factory are all going to be liquidated with him, and the reason why it has dragged on for so many years is just that the time has not yet come.

A fantasy that he didn't dare to hope for was about to become a reality, and Zhang Siwei was so excited that he couldn't help himself. Today's conversation with the little emperor made him even more convinced of his judgment...... He didn't mind that the emperor wanted to keep Zhang Juzheng at all, because this just showed that the emperor's sense of power had awakened and he was desperately looking for assistance.

And Zhang Siwei knows that there are many, many people who are willing to be the scapegoat for the emperor, and the emperor chooses himself, which means that he is also Jane in the emperor's heart, but he is just succumbing to Zhang Juzheng.

Now as long as he does what the emperor wants, Zhang Juzheng will be drowned in saliva in the blink of an eye, how can he still have the face to stay in the capital at that time? He will naturally be the number one candidate and become the only reliance on the emperor's rival silence.

Although his opponent is extremely strong, he is actually not afraid, because he is not fighting alone, and his assistants are many, many people. After Shen Ge Lao came to power, he supported the lecture to make the already prosperous style of lecturing become like a soup and could not be cleaned up. The Ming Dynasty's "words" were unprecedented, and all kinds of strange theories emerged. In recent years, some cultural associations in the south have begun to trumpet a kind of "non-monarch thinking", and these people have gathered into associations, saying that the emperor is the root of all evil, blaming the emperor for all social tragedies, and vigorously advocating a political structure of "hypocrisy and real ministers". Because since Emperor Zhengde, the three emperors have not performed their duties well, so they have given the soil for this kind of saying to breed. Especially in the south, which has been dissatisfied with Wang Hua for a long time, this statement is very popular.

But in the north, where traditional thinking is deeply rooted, this argument has become a great contradiction. Over the years, Zhang Siwei has united some officials who resolutely support imperial power, these people have second- and third-grade ministry governors, and there are new imperial historians who are very considerable in both quantity and quality. They formed a poetry society, gathered together in the name of the literary society, emphasized the sanctity of imperial power, denounced "non-monarch thoughts, and pointed the spearhead at the head of the dynasty, believing that the flood of such statements could not be separated from the connivance of silence, and even said that it was his preparation to emulate Wang Mang." They discussed how to help the emperor restore his authority and put things right, but it was only because the emperor was too young that he silently approved every chapter that they connected and forbeared, looking forward to the opportunity so far.

Thinking of this, Zhang Siwei's heart became extremely strong, and he hesitated, believing that although he was weak, he would definitely win. Because all reactionaries are paper tigers!

Sure enough, Shen Mo couldn't say anything to stop him, so he could only obey his orders.

So the next day. In the newspaper, Zhang Siwei asked to take away the love and restore Zhang Juzheng's recital, and Zhang Siwei said that the Ming Dynasty would not be without Zhang Juzheng in one day, saying that the love was the way of the sages who gave up one person and benefited the world, and asked the emperor to leave Zhang Juzheng. makes people goosebumps and lose a place, if it weren't for the famous signature in black and white, how could he not associate such a sycophancy article with Zhang Siwei, who has always had a good reputation.

But on the other hand, Wang Chonggu, who has always seemed rough and slick, but this time, for some reason, suddenly insisted on his principles. Unwilling to follow the emperor's instructions and come forward to retain Zhang Juzheng, he replied to the emperor and said, "Zhang Ge is always two generations of emperors, taking care of the old ministers, and he should be given a special anointing when he returns to his hometown for funeral, but this is a matter of the Ministry of Rites, what does it have to do with the Ministry of Officials?" "Pretending to be confused, obviously not supporting love.

Zhang Juzheng is at the center of public opinion, and if he is silent, it will be too weak. He had no choice but to go up one after another, hinting that he would return to his hometown to guard the system. His begging and observance were published in full in the latest issue of Di Bao. This is a long article, although the love of filial piety is overflowing on paper, but the tone of the request for observance is actually not very resolute. Clear-sighted people can see at a glance that this is a perfunctory ...... made by Zhang Juzheng under pressure from the veto faction Zhang Juzheng not only did not say it to death, but spent a lot of time recalling and the little emperor's bits and pieces, and said: "Those who have received a very good favor should have a very good reward." The husband is very good, and he can be detained. , and then said that even if he was broken bones, he would not be able to repay the emperor's favor in case of emergency, "Why not care about the criticism of others, favoritism, and confined to common sense" This is tantamount to implying to the emperor that I can do something beyond the norm for you. But Zhang Juzheng didn't mention the word "running love", and judging by the gist of his recital, he still asked his father (mother) to mourn.

Therefore, he thinks that public opinion must not do anything to him.

This pair of monarchs and ministers played a cliché of three stays and three concessions, and felt that Yu Zu and Yu public opinion could have an explanation, and it was time to seize the affection logically.

But in full view of everyone, how can this kind of illusion with no technical content be hidden? So the officials were angry and upset. The source of their anger and uneasiness is not the incident itself, but the purpose! In the past, when Renshen coup d'état, it was the six branches who shouted the slogan "Without Fengge Luantai, what is the name of the edict, and used the right to refute the chaos in the palace.

Now that six years have passed, the palace has begun to bypass the cabinet again and again to issue a central decree! And it's a more harmful mess than six years ago! Six years ago, it was only about the stay of a first assistant, but this time, it was about the foundation of the dynasty's rule!

This dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and if you don't abide by the system, you are not filial, and if you don't have filial piety, you're not a loyal minister, or you're a disloyal and unfilial person. Whether it is the emperor or the prime minister, if you ask your subjects to do one, they must first achieve ten, so that they can be regarded as leading by example and setting an example for the world. Now as an emperor, you have to lose your arms and stay often, and those who are courtiers are even more for the sake of power. If this thing really comes to pass, then who else in the world will abide by filial piety? How can a person who does not even observe filial piety obey the way of his ministers? As long as you have a little strength, you want to be the emperor, and the world will definitely be in chaos.

This is the powerful logic of the scholars!

Located on Dengshikou Street, Bolun Building has become the first choice for young officials to gather because of its spacious space, elegant decoration and low price among high-end restaurants.

After the end of the day, those officials who had already made an appointment changed into swallow clothes in their respective yamen, and then took a small sedan chair to gather in Bolun Tower. Most of these people are Jinshi after Wanli, and they are also about 30 years old, and they happen to be a generation that grew up after the prosperity of business, the culture of civilization, the grass of society, and the emancipation of the mind. At the same time, they also experienced the rebellion in the southeast and the great victory of recovering the Hetao, which strengthened the hearts of our people, so the idea of helping the world in their hearts and the courage to sacrifice themselves were not possessed by the officials of their predecessors.

There is also a very important point, although these young people who were born in Jiajing 35 years later, although they have gone through three dynasties, they only see an old emperor who hides in the palace all day long, a middle emperor who hides in the palace all day long, and a little emperor who hides in the palace all day long to study. Therefore, in their hearts, the emperor should be hiding in the palace to enjoy happiness and hand over the world to the ministers to govern. Therefore, the group of young officials who were particularly disgusted by the emperor's "transgression" this time, and even more believed that they had the obligation to correct the emperor's faults and unanimously agree with Jun Yaoshun. It is for this purpose that they are meeting.

At this time, the box was already full of officials, who were divided into several groups and handed out opinions nearby, but it was clear that it had not officially begun. Looking at the two chairs on the front seat, it seems that they are waiting for two important people.

Without making them wait, the shopkeeper led two young men of twenty-seven or eighteen years old. As soon as they saw them, everyone in the room got up, clasped their fists and laughed, "Mengbai, Erzhan, you two are late." ”

This is called Mengbai and Erzhan, who are younger than everyone here, but they seem to be the head of everyone.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, the shorter, fair-faced "Er Zhan", and said with a smile: "We didn't mean to be late, we came out of the yamen and turned to Nanshizhai." ”

"Nan Shi Zhai?" The interest of the crowd increased, and they said, "But is there a well?" ”

The tall "Mengbai" said with a smile: "Exactly, Brother Er Zhan wrote an article, which will be issued in the newspaper tomorrow, and he took me to Nanshizhai and asked for a few copies first, so that everyone could have a sneak peek." As he spoke, he took out a stack of ink-scented newspapers from his sleeve and distributed them to everyone to read.

Ten years after the newspaper came out in the south, it finally reached the capital in the early years of Wanli. However, the great cultural disagreement between the north and the south, the prosperity of commercial activities, and the difference in the literacy rate of citizens have all made the newspapers that flourished in the south in the north in a state of half-dead.

Basically, it is only circulated in a few big cities such as Beijing, Taiyuan, and Jinan, and the number of publications is very small.

However, the so-called "1 small is only relatively large in the south", in fact, except for textbooks such as the Four Books and the Five Classics, it has crossed the level of popularity of any kind of publication. In particular, in the city of Beijing, where scholars and doctors gathered, there were five kinds of newspapers in circulation. The "Shishi Bao" published by the Nanshi Zhai Printing Society is the smallest of the five newspapers, but it has the greatest influence on scholars, because it publishes various current affairs commentaries and political commentaries, and is known as "1 Budi Bao." But because of its unofficial position, it is even more spicy and hot.

Er Zhan and Mengbai are a pair of masters of writing political opinions, their articles are published in Xiaodi Daily, their ideas are radical and profound, and they are deeply supported by young officials.

Now on the newspaper that the two of them scattered to everyone, there is the "Brother Erzhan, Ministry Yuanbiao, made" begging for grace and guarding the system, and at first glance, it is aimed at Zhang Juzheng.

I saw his spicy sarcasm: "Juzheng's father and son are separated from each other, and those who don't have a good voice and appearance will be nine out of ten years." Once abandoned thousands of miles away, normal people will crawl in the city and mourn with their coffins. However, in Juzheng's recital, his words were vague, and the meaning of not giving up his official position was clearly revealed, and he also proclaimed that he was "very human." This kind of guy who doesn't take care of his relatives when he is alive and doesn't mourn when he dies is really a very human being who is not in the Three Platforms and extincts the Five Constants" He also sarcastically said, fortunately Zhang Juzheng is only a father (mother) mourning, and he can still be retained: If he is unfortunate enough to sacrifice his life in the line of duty, His Majesty's learning will never be successful, and his ambition will be uncertain? In fact, it is not a pity to be alone, the key is that if there is a person who loves power in the future, it will inevitably lead to the story of Juzheng, and even steal the artifact, then the legacy will be far-reaching, and it will not be said in a word! @
