Chapter Forty-Eight: Wanli's Arrangement
"In this way, Qingzhang Tianmu has to be implemented quickly."
After hearing Zhang Juzheng say this, Wang Guoguang replied with a smile.
Lu Tiaoyang nodded: "Da Si Nong's words are reasonable!" ”
Zhang Juzheng just smiled at this.
And Zhu Yijun had already come to the outside of the palace at this time, watching these ministers leave their Qianqing Palace.
"I didn't expect that the discussion came and went, and only the method of copying the house was suitable to solve this year's deficit and solve the problem of the border town."
Zhu Yijun looked at the backs of these Wenchen, slandered like this, and then laughed, and said in his heart:
"Perhaps this is already a better result than the original history, after all, the official trial of Qingzhang Tianmu in history did not start in Fujian until the sixth year of Wanli."
"Now, if it can be advanced to Wanli three years, it is indeed a few years earlier than the original history. And all this is related to the fact that the emperor showed his attitude of supporting the reform in advance, and it is also related to Zhang Juzheng's initiative to let radicals such as Hai Rui and Zhao Zhenji into the court and catalyze the reform process. ”
In any case, Zhu Yijun has to admit that if the first two summons of foreign ministers were to show his attitude and style of exercising power as an emperor, this time it showed the wisdom and foresight of Zhang Juzheng, Hai Rui, and Tan Lun, who are capable ministers of the empire.
And the emperor himself can be regarded as learning a lot of ways to govern and employ people in this summons.
Zhu Yijun felt that Zhang Juzheng might finally agree to let Hai Rui enter the court as an official, just because he wanted to simulate himself after he, a young emperor, showed his desire to change the law, how to mediate the contradictions between radicals and conservatives in reform, and how to make radicals not too radical, but also force conservatives to be willing to take a step forward.
And Zhu Yijun is very willing to learn how Zhang Juzheng practiced.
However, Zhu Yijun thought to himself that he would not be completely like Zhang Juzheng, and only thought about relying on scholars and doctors to complete the reform.
Because Zhu Yijun knows that scholars are limited by this era, they may not know what a global vision is.
In a word, the pattern of scholars and doctors in this era is limited, and I am afraid that not many people have opened their eyes to the world.
Therefore, Zhu Yijun still will not completely follow the imperial road designed by Zhang Juzheng for him, and he still insists that in the future, after he becomes pro-government, he will give the Ming scholars and doctors a big unexpected decision.
The Wanli New Deal continued, and the entire Ming Dynasty gradually recovered in the bright sunshine that began in early spring.
Fresh green seeps out little by little from the white marble steps of the Forbidden City, and then flows to the suburbs, dyeing all over Kyushu.
And this year is the second year of Wanli, which happens to be the year of Dabi.
This means that a new batch of jinshi will appear.
The Ming scholar class is constantly growing his class.
No one knows which eunuch family will once again stage two generations of three jinshi or one five-jinshi and other glory.
For Zhu Yijun, in this year's imperial examination, he was most impressed by Zhang Jingxiu, the son of Zhang Juzheng, who would become the champion in the palace examination.
As soon as he thought of this, Zhu Yijun asked Zhang Whale on the side: "Zhang Jingxiu, have you confessed?" ”
Zhang Whale replied: "I have already confessed." ”
Zhu Yijun nodded after hearing this, and didn't say anything more.
……
Zhang Zhai.
Zhang Juzheng looked at Zhang Jingxiu with a solemn expression: "You said you don't participate in this year's big competition?" ”
Zhang Jingxiu nodded: "Yes." ”
Zhang Juzheng sneered: "Don't be angry, right? You have been thinking about winning all the time, and you asked someone to find the examiner Shen Ziwei (Shen Zhengyi), isn't it?! ”
"Father! The kid figured it out! ”
"This imperial examination is not suitable for people like children."
"After all, even if a child wins the top prize, it may not necessarily be considered that the child has real talent and learning."
Zhang Jingxiu replied.
After hearing this, Zhang Juzheng asked, "Really figured it out?" ”
"Hmm!"
Zhang Jingxiu nodded.
Zhang Juzheng picked up the teacup and stared at Zhang Jingxiu with deep eyes:
"The descendants of my Zhang family never care about the eyes of others."
"Although the three deficiencies are not accepted by many people who are rational, the father has taught you, and it is good to have such an understanding of the three deficiencies!"
"Why, now you're afraid of human speech?"
"Father!"
"You have also seen the fate of Yan Donglou and Xu Fan, the child is not good at this way, not to mention that what you do is more fearsome than Yan Fenyi and Mr. Xu, and the power is greater than them; Only the lower the child puts his position now, the less painful it will be in the future! ”
Zhang Jingxiu replied.
Then, Zhang Jingxiu bowed his hand to Zhang Juzheng again: "The child is willing to only stay with his father, help take care of the housework, take care of his younger brothers and sisters, as for personal fame, I don't want to!" ”
Zhang Juzheng still looked at Zhang Jingxiu and did not speak.
And Zhang Jingxiu himself had to bury his face lower.
After a while, Zhang Juzheng smiled and said, "Okay! That's good, it's the best thing if you don't participate in the karma, and it can be regarded as fulfilling your father, but you have been wronged! ”
"The child didn't feel wronged, and besides, it was the child's willingness."
Zhang Jingxiu replied.
Zhang Juzheng nodded: "Our ancestors were originally from Jinyiwei, if you don't participate in the industry, it will also be a way out in the future, and it is indeed more suitable for you." ”
"Your temperament is indeed not suitable for mixing in the Shilin who is full of gentlemen and benevolence but full of interests and wrongs, so you should be an idle official honestly and take care of the family business, which is more conducive to the future of my Zhang family."
"That's what my father said."
Zhang Jingxiu replied with a smile.
Zhang Juzheng continued to smile: "That's fine. Take an opportunity for my father to talk about this matter to Zhu and Liu, so that they can find a way to transfer you to Nanzhen Fusi in the future, Nanzhen Fusi is more suitable for you, and it is also convenient for you to take care of your family business. ”
"The child listens to his father!"
Zhang Jingxiu hurriedly replied.
Dajingo is a kind of honorific title for high-ranking officials in this era.
And because the Zhang family is a member of Jinyi Wei, and Zhang Juzheng himself is Yuanfu, Zhu Xixiao, the left governor of Jinyi Wei, and Liu Shouyou, the commander of Jinyi Wei, have a good relationship with Zhang Juzheng.
The two big Jinwu Zhu and Liu in Zhang Juzheng's mouth at this time are Zhu Xixiao and Liu Shouyou.
After Zhang Jingxiu told Zhang Juzheng that he would no longer participate in the imperial examination, he left the house and went straight to a separate garden where no one knew whose house.
And at this time, in this annex, Zhang Whale was waiting for him.
"Is the old man here?"
When Zhang Jing saw Zhang Jingxiu appear, he greeted him with a smile.
Zhang Jingxiu hurriedly also bowed his hand and said: "I've seen the factory father." ”
"Xiao Ge Lao doesn't have to be like this."
Zhang Jing said and asked, "Ling Zun agreed?" ”
Zhang Jingxiu nodded: "I agreed, my father didn't want me to participate in the imperial examination." ”
"That's good!"
Zhang Whale said and took out a waist card from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Jingxiu to look at: "Because the origin of your mansion is the Jinyi Guard, so it is easy to operate, you don't need to go to the military department, you can directly handle your official position, and now your official position of Jinyi Wei has been specially appointed by His Majesty as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and it is directly controlled by our family, but your identity cannot be known to anyone, including Ling Zun, understand?" ”
"Understood!"
Zhang Whale continued: "And the little pavilion elder will still be able to contact the foreign court's civil ministers and military generals as the little pavilion elder in the future, and accept the gifts that should be received, and say the scenes that should be said, but only one point, we must inform our family of their secrets related to the emperor at any time, and tell our family that we are telling the emperor, including Ling Zun!" This is what the emperor must do to protect his husband, and it is also what you must do to protect Mr. Yuanfu Zhang and the Zhang family of your mansion, understand? ”
"Understood! Please rest assured! ”
Zhang Jingxiu replied.
Zhang Whale nodded: "That's good!" Xiao Ge Lao rest assured, if this matter is done well, it will come from the benefits of your Zhang family. ”
"According to the emperor's intentions, although you are only the commander of the Jinyi Guard, if the little pavilion elder can help Ling Zun complete the new policy and complete the reform, then your mansion will be able to obtain at least one hereditary earl in the future. It's no worse than the old man of Xiaoge to be the old man of Shangshu Pavilion! ”
Zhang Jingxiu nodded: "The humble post understands, in fact, His Majesty is willing to take the initiative to protect the future of the Zhang family, and the humble post is already grateful, how dare you not go to the soup and fire, and temporarily be loyal first and then full of filial piety." ”
Zhang Jing nodded with a smile: "It's good that the little pavilion elders understand, the little pavilion elders in front of you just didn't understand, and they forgot that in the end, it was the emperor who had the final say in the world and suffered a big loss." ”
