Ganghwa Island.

At this time, Zhang Gui, who was enjoying the Korean women's dance with Huang Binqing and other officials of the West Factory, was drinking wine lightly, full of comfort.

Ganghwa Island was originally a place of refuge for the Joseon royal family when the crisis of war was approaching, so it was home to a ready-made palace, road transportation, agriculture was well developed, and there were various craftsmen and musicians who met the needs of the Joseon princes and nobles.

Moreover, Ganghwa Island was originally near Seoul, which was later Seoul, South Korea, and the climate was pleasant, and it was very close to Seoul.

Therefore, Zhang Gui is resting here for a while, but it is not a matter of suffering in a wild and barbaric place.

"How long will it be before the old lady and the lady arrive?"

However, staying here, the only thing that worries Zhang Gui is his own family scroll.

Therefore, Zhang Gui also asked Huang Binqing at this time.

Huang Binqing replied: "Liu Zongmin has already sent someone to the sea to report, and he is already on the way here, the officials of the DPRK and China did not stop the old lady and his wife, and even His Majesty ordered the state capitals to escort them, and the queen mother even sent someone to ride a fast horse to send ginseng, etc., and also sent Imperial Doctor Wu to come, saying that it was for the governor to recuperate. ”

Zhang Gui nodded after listening.

He was not surprised by the DPRK's reaction.

Because he knows that now the Ming Dynasty, whether it is the emperor or the courtiers, needs him very much, and he will not turn his face against him.

"In this case, there is no need for us to go to Kagoshima again, and we can stay on Ganghwa Island for a while for the time being."

Zhang Guiyin said.

Therefore, Zhang Gui really did not continue to go to other places to learn about it, but only stayed in Jianghua Island, and only let Qi Panzong arrange some craftsmen to carve the content of various famous Han poems on local stones all day, and also carved some famous Han characters, covering many aspects such as military culture and science, such as Yue Fei, Li Bai, Du Fu, Su Shi, and Qi Jiguang.

Zhang Gui believes that as long as this Ganghwa Island can always be the Ming Dynasty, then there is no need to worry that Goryeo will use this as an excuse to say that these people are the heroes of their country.

And Zhang Gui actually wanted to sit on the ground and become the land of the Han family in the future.

Not long after Zhang Gui lived in Jianghua Island, Zhang Guoji and Shang Jinghui also took a boat to Jianghua Island.

"Husband!"

When Shang Jinghui saw Zhang Gui, who he hadn't seen for a long time, he was naturally a newlywed Xiaobiesheng and was very happy.

And Zhang Gui also smiled and stayed a few more glances on the face of the young woman who was still charming, and then came over to salute Zhang Guoji: "Father! ”

Zhang Guoji turned around a little unhappily and asked, "Are you really planning to abandon the country, abandon the king, abandon the ancestors, let us come to this isolated island, and live a life of active exile with you?" ”

"Doesn't my father think that this Ganghwa Island is not good enough? There are also heavy buildings and jade here, and there are more vast fertile fields. And it also uses Chinese characters, and in a few years, I believe everyone will be able to speak Chinese. ”

Zhang Guiyan said.

"Don't talk about it here, it's Jingshi, I don't think it's too healthy, the Han people have to pay attention to the fallen leaves and return to the roots!"

Zhang Guoji said again: "You are making trouble with the court like this now, what if Your Majesty doesn't let you and me go back?" ”

Zhang Guidao: "But the father should understand that if his son doesn't make trouble with the court like this, then what awaits his son in the future will be betrayed sooner or later by the court's ulterior motives or selfish scholars!" Just like they betrayed Yue Fei, Yu Qian, and Zhang Juzheng. Of course, the son may not be as good as these people, but throughout the history of the Qin Dynasty, there are few people who have achieved great merit and shocked the master to have a good end, especially the relatives and military ministers. ”

Zhang Guoji pursed his mouth: "I also thought about this, so I still came out with you, but now the court has not actually said that we will not be allowed to the Zhang family, you don't know, because you don't return to Beijing, the entire court inside and outside the chaos is messed up!" Even Dingguo Gong and Wu Qinghou came to ask me, saying when will you return to Beijing, and if you don't return to Beijing, they won't be able to sleep! ”

"It's because they're the time they need me the most now that I'm going to bargain at this time!"

"Otherwise, when I return to Beijing, I will have to fall into the trap they dug! One by one, they all want to gain greater power and benefits by touting me, and then in the future, blame me for all the crises caused by the corruption of society, and even make the Son of Heaven or the future Son of Heaven think that getting rid of me can solve all the problems of the imperial court, and even get rid of me as the merit of the Son of Heaven to set things right! And use this to tout the Son of Heaven, or a certain powerful minister! is like Xu Jie, who got rid of Yan Song, and Sima Guang, who changed Wang Anshi's new law. ”

Zhang Gui sneered when he said this: "This set of tricks has been played by my Chinese bureaucrats for thousands of years, they are not tired, I am already tired of it!" ”

"Do they really think I want to go back and be flattered by them, to see them kneeling and wagging their tails in front of me? The son just wants them to grow up now and not use their shrewdness in the wrong place! And the society should put its own wisdom on the global situation, and lay out the things in a hundred years! ”

"This cycle is repeated, and it is really realized that the saint is immortal, and the thief is not stopped!"

Zhang Guoji looked at his son helplessly: "Why do you look at the corporal doctor so much?" Don't talk about others, just say that your father-in-law, is it also a person with ulterior motives or selfishness, you clear the father-in-law's family's land, and even let it divide the land among the people, people are actively cooperating, saying that this is good governance, and still speak for you in front of their own people, and even raise the virtuous and do not avoid relatives, saying that although you are a relative, you are also working for the country. ”

When Shang Jinghui heard Zhang Gui say that he would be killed by the world's corporal doctors when he returned to Beijing, and also said that the scholars and doctors needed to grow up and mature, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile, and when he heard Zhang Guoji ask Zhang Gui how to evaluate his father, he also listened carefully.

Zhang Gui said at this time: "Yue Weng naturally doesn't need to say it, the selfless minister of the Grand Duke!" But his personal image does not represent the general image of scholars and doctors, father, you are an ancient person, more knowledgeable than your son, you should know that in this world, Rao is a scholar, and he is also more hypocritical and selfish! ”

"And the scholar class is also destined to be difficult to curb his selfish desire in the pursuit of fame and fortune, there are few people who can really defeat selfish desires, Hai Rui may be counted as one, plus one of my Yue Weng, and more importantly, even if some scholars defeat selfish desires, do not value fame and fortune and abide by the way of Confucian sages, but they will also go to the other extreme, that is, too high-minded, and tend to be pedantic, thinking that all the truth of the saint can not be questioned, all the things of the ancestors can not be reversed, and even admit that as long as they are relatives, it is easy to mess with the government, and it is easy to confuse the monarch if they are eunuchs. If you are a powerful minister, it is easy to abuse power! Obviously, Yue Weng is not this kind of person, otherwise he would not have married us. ”

Shang Jinghui couldn't help but smile when he heard Zhang Gui say this, and his eyes were full of tenderness when he looked at Zhang Gui.

Zhang Gui and Zhang Guoji stood side by side in the sunset.

Zhang Guoji didn't speak again.

Obviously, Zhang Guoji no longer knows how to refute Zhang Gui.

Seeing this, Shang Jinghui took the opportunity to break the embarrassment: "Father, the people around you just now, the medicine is boiled!" Go get your medication. ”

So, Shang Jinghui left with Zhang Guoji.

After a while, Shang Jinghui came to Zhang Gui after sending Zhang Guoji away, brought Zhang Gui a cup of maple dew tea and asked: "Unexpectedly, the husband has a high opinion of his father, but the concubine wants to ask, does the husband also think that his father has not grown up yet?" ”

Zhang Gui glanced back after hearing this.

Shang Jinghui smiled: "Say! ”

Then, Shang Jinghui swiped his scallion-like index finger into the air, stuck it on his pink cheeks, and asked with a smile: "Is it really that I asked?" ”
