213 The heart has a spirit
Encountering King Yu on the road was just a small episode, but King Yu's words made Zhang Juzheng's originally sunny mood have a hint of haze.
Yu Jin is getting more and more important from Yuwang.
Yuwang has the temperament of an ambiguous man, even to the people in the house can also be kind and pleasant, every New Year's festival will give rewards to the people around him, give gifts, is a rare good service to the lord, but Yuwang rarely goes in and out, most of the time is hidden in Yuwang's mansion.
This is also determined by his cowardly character, he does not dare to face challenges, is afraid of the criticism of others, and is even more afraid that someone will be unfavorable to him, and in Yuwang's Mansion, that is his world, he is the supreme and impermanent lord, Zhang Juzheng, as a lecturer of Yuwang, received a lot of gifts.
However, Yuwang never visited the house.
And at this moment, King Yu did not fake his hands to others, but personally sent Yu Jin, this treatment, even Zhang Juzheng, who is a teacher, has not enjoyed, a small school book has such a grace, plus King Yu is full of praise for Yu Jin on weekdays.
Zhang Juzheng felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
Originally, he didn't have an advantage, but after Xu Jie's high arch, Chen Yiqin, who was in charge of the affairs of Zhan Shifu, was more trusted than himself, but he didn't expect that the person he recruited became the person who threatened him.
Day and night, it is difficult to prevent thieves.
Zhang Juzheng's mood was very complicated, but his face not only did not become gloomy, on the contrary, his face became more and more solemn.
The palace is getting closer.
At the thought of being summoned by Jiajing, Zhang Juzheng's heart became hot again.
Since the great etiquette dispute, Jiajing has rarely gone to the court, and the ministers who can see him are all people he trusts, which has undoubtedly become an honor among officials, and now Jiajing has sent someone to summon him into the palace. Zhang Juzheng was very encouraged in his heart.
Being summoned by the emperor to the palace to face the saint is an opportunity and an honor.
As long as Longyan is happy, he will be promoted to the rank of knight, and it will be just around the corner.
After the identity is reported, the identity is to be verified by the guard. Soon a eunuch came to lead the way, went straight to the West Garden, and under the prompting of the eunuch, changed into a set of aromamed robes, and then waited in the side hall for Jiajing to pass on.
Jiajing said to the road, seeking longevity, this matter is known to the world, the old head Fu Xia Yan, high morality, and praise from the government and the opposition. It was because he refused to wear the Taoist robe given by Jiajing, and he also threw the flower crown rewarded by Jiajing at his feet, and finally lost all the officials, Zhang Juzheng's teacher Xu Jie, in order to please Jiajing, not only wore a Taoist robe, but also took the initiative to refine and try the pill for Jiajing.
In this regard, Zhang Juzheng did not have the slightest resistance.
Jiajing became more and more free.
His freedom is based on being high. When he wanted to meet someone, a verbal decree was accomplished. But when a person comes, when he meets, it is up to his preference.
Once, in order to refine a rare pill, he stayed in the Dan room for three days and three nights, so that a royal historian who was announced by him waited in the ear room for three days and three nights, and he couldn't eat well. I couldn't sleep well, so that after seeing Jiajing, everyone lost a little weight.
What Zhang Juzheng has is patience.
For fear that Jiajing would not be here when he was looking for himself, Zhang Juzheng just ate some snacks when he ate, such as wine. Rarely moves.
If you meet the emperor in person, it will be a shame to say that you have to go to the toilet halfway.
Zhang Juzheng only ate two pieces of dried fruits, and then looked at his nose and nose, and his heart and mind, and he was settled.
I don't know how long later, a little eunuch informed Zhang Juzheng that the emperor was invited.
Hearing "The emperor is invited", Zhang Juzheng suddenly became excited, and immediately stood up, for fear that he would lose his manners, and when he set off, he also straightened his clothes, for fear that he would be disliked if he was disheveled.
Jiajing summoned Zhang Juzheng in the side hall of Yongshou Palace.
After some etiquette, Zhang Juzheng, who was given to sit on a futon, had the opportunity to watch Jiajing.
Jiajing sat on the futon in a Taoist robe, although his hair was gray, but his face was ruddy, his eyes were bright, and his long beard was fluttering, giving people a fairy atmosphere with crane hair and a childish face.
Now the cold wind is howling outside and the snow is falling, but Jiajing, who is nearly sixty years old, only wears a white single coat and a gray robe, which is less than Zhang Juzheng.
Zhang Juzheng, who observed carefully, saw that a little bead of sweat was oozing from the tip of Jiajing's nose.
Zhang Juzheng said with admiration: "The emperor's Taoism is lean again, and Weichen admires it." ”
Jiajing has just finished taking the Nine Turns Golden Pill he refined, in modern science, after refining the Dan, there is mercury, and a trace amount of mercury can make people feel mentally excited and hot, but people in this era don't know that Jiajing is still complacent after taking it for decades like a guinea pig.
In the future, maybe it will be able to enter a certain record.
"I'm old, what's the benefit." Jiajing said modestly.
"The emperor is a person favored by God, the pride of heaven, and now he is in the prime of life, how can he say that he is old, the people of the Ming Dynasty are looking forward to the emperor's goodness."
The current Zhang Juzheng is still a small person, he has no grand ambitions, and he has no unbroken backbone, and the temperament of a famous minister has not yet been cultivated, let alone a big stage for him to show his talents, so he, like many officials, flatters his superiors in every way.
Jiajing didn't say anything, he heard too many of these words, when it came to saying good things and wearing a high hat, Comrade Uncle's skill was not enough, at least far worse than his teacher Xu Jie, and compared to Yuan Wei, it was even more out of reach, and Jiajing summoned Zhang Juzheng this time, not to hear him say these flattering words, but to hear about the recent situation of King Yu.
The two dragons didn't see each other, this spell made Jiajing deliberately estranged from his son, but as a father, on a whim, he also wanted to hear about his son's recent situation.
Zhang Juzheng entered the palace for this reason.
"Zhang Aiqing, I haven't been out of the palace for some days, tell me about the interesting things outside." Jiajing suddenly spoke.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Juzheng's heart moved, and he immediately agreed.
So, Zhang Juzheng talked about the interesting things that happened recently, such as a certain official taking a concubine, a certain official and a certain person having a bad relationship with his colleagues, and what strange things a foreign businessman brought, and talking about the recent Yujing incident, and slowly led the topic to Yuwang.
Zhang Juzheng's heart is like a mirror, although Jiajing said that he was not in the court, but Jinyiwei recorded every move in the world and presented it to Jiajing's imperial case.
Now I am talking to myself, obviously I want to hear more about King Yu.
obviously wanted to hear it, but Jiajing didn't speak, just waited for Zhang Juzheng to take the initiative to say, if Zhang Juzheng couldn't guess this little thought, then he would have gone home to herd cattle a long time ago.
When he spoke, Zhang Juzheng intentionally or unintentionally paid attention to Jiajing's expression, and when Jiajing showed impatience, he immediately changed the topic, and when Jiajing showed interest, he would continue to talk and say more.
What made Zhang Juzheng a little unhappy was that Jiajing was obviously interested in Yu Jin, who accompanied him, and Jiajing never interrupted when he talked about him, and occasionally asked a few questions.
Knowing that Jiajing had Jinyiwei as his eyes and ears, Zhang Juzheng was not good at arranging Yu Jin, and he not only said it to the point, but also praised him.
Hearing this, Jiajing said lightly: "Hehe, I didn't expect you to be a teacher, and you said that you admired a little scholar, and you were not afraid of being laughed at." ”
Zhang Juzheng immediately said: "Although Yu Xiaoshu is just a showman, he is very assertive when he speaks and acts, that is, Yuwang also trusts him very much, and Yuwang will adopt Yu's suggestions in everything." ”
Well? Yuwang trusts a school book like this?
Jiajing's eyebrows were raised, and there was a hint of displeasure in his eyes.
These two small movements were fleeting, but Zhang Juzheng accurately captured this look, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help revealing a subtle sneer.
It is not a good thing for a prince to obey the words of a small school scholar, and King Yu is weak and more likely to be taken advantage of.
No matter how good it is said earlier, it is just a cover-up, and this casual statement is also a heart-wrenching statement.
As long as a bad seed is left in Jiajing's heart, when this "seed" takes root and sprouts, it will be the time when Yu Jin is unlucky.
If you have the opportunity, you have to exclude dissenters.
And Zhang Juzheng never dreamed that when he pretended to have no intention of framing Yu Jin, Yu Jin was holding Xiao Wanli who came with King Yu, and pretended to be angry and said: "Little prince, if you are naughty again, I will let the prince find someone to treat you well." ”
With the experience of playing marbles last time, Xiao Wanli had a good impression of Yu Jin, and soon played a mess.
Little kid, no scheming, fun and active, and easy to crush in IQ, Yu Jin didn't take much effort to get Xiao Wanli's trust and favor.
"Father loves me, who will you find to cure me?" Xiao Wanli said with a look of disbelief.
Yu Jin smiled, couldn't help but twist it lightly on that red and simple little face, and scared him: "That's your father's teacher Zhang Juzheng Zhang, he is serious, he won't let you move, won't let you play, let you read and copy every day, and hit your palms if you don't do well." ”
Xiao Wanli's face suddenly became nervous
In Zhang Juzheng's eyes, Yu Jin is a threat, and in Yu Jin's eyes, Comrade Uncle, who has monopolized power, is not a threat, maybe he has a heart, and both shrewd people give each other eye medicine at the same time. (To be continued.) )
