Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Heart Is in Turmoil
"When?"
After Zhu Yijun knew about this, he asked in a deep voice.
"September 13th!"
Zhang Whale replied.
"It's still here after all!"
"Didn't you let the people from your East Factory watch it?"
Zhu Yijun asked after speaking.
Zhang Jing replied: "The people in Dongchang have been watching, but this old lady Zhang is really too old, and she is critically ill several times a year, and now she has not survived this time!" ”
"Stand down!"
Zhu Yijun waved his hand after hearing this.
Zhang Whale left Zhu Yijun's place.
And all of a sudden, in the entire warm pavilion, only Zhu Yijun was left.
Zhu Yijun stared blankly at the screen in front of him, full of thoughts.
The sudden death of Zhang's father, in this era of filial piety, is not a big blow to the New Deal.
Because once Zhang Juzheng returns to his hometown because of this, it means that Qingzhang's affairs will be interrupted, after all, all the people who are now executing Qingzhang are Zhang Juzheng's people.
Once Zhang Juzheng leaves, the new Shoufu will inevitably have to be replaced, and once he is replaced, many things will be put on hold.
Therefore, for the sake of the new policy, Zhu Yijun has to win love for Zhang Juzheng, and he doesn't want Qingzhang's matter to give up halfway.
And he believes that Zhang Juzheng himself also hopes to be taken away by his emperor.
According to the etiquette system, when an official's parents die, the official himself needs to take the initiative to return to his hometown to worry, and his official position will be dismissed.
But this system is not without its inoperability.
According to the system, the emperor has the power to seize affection.
After all, etiquette must also be subordinated to political needs.
It's just that in many cases, the scholars did not want the etiquette system to be subordinated to the imperial power, but wanted the imperial power to be subordinated to the etiquette system.
That is, the emperor should also obey the etiquette system and allow the officials who should observe the festival to return to their hometowns.
And officials should also take the initiative to abide by the etiquette system, and cannot not disobey the etiquette system because of the emperor's affection.
In short, Zhu Yijun knew that he had encountered a challenge to whether the imperial power should obey the etiquette system.
And Zhu Yijun had no intention of obeying the etiquette system.
It's not just that he doesn't want his imperial power to be constrained by etiquette.
What is more important is that he does not want this backward moral system to continue to restrict the internal improvement of the entire Chinese society.
If the imperial power still needs to be restricted in the future, Zhu Yijun does not want to restrict the imperial power by etiquette.
What's more, because of the contradictory nature of the need to be loyal to the imperial power, the religion itself is destined to be unable to restrain the imperial power.
Therefore, in any case, the current Zhu Yijun is not suitable to let Zhang Juzheng leave.
If he wants to let Zhang Juzheng leave, he can only let Zhang Juzheng leave because the new deal is completely completed and he can find someone who can really replace Zhang Juzheng, instead of letting Zhang Juzheng leave because he compromised with the Confucian etiquette system.
"How so!"
After Zhang Juzheng received this news, he felt more difficult to accept than Wanli, and after muttering such a sentence, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar: "Father! ”
Then, Zhang Juzheng fainted and fell unconscious.
And Zhang Jingxiu didn't wake up his father for the first time, but the whole person was also in place for a moment, and only said blankly: "How is this good?" ”
Zhang Jingxiu seems to have foreseen what kind of wind and rain his father will face next.
Unlike Zhang Juzheng's fainting and Zhang Jingxiu's sluggishness, Hanlin editor Wu Zhongxing was already like a jackal asking about the taste of meat, found Zhao Yongxian, and said excitedly: "The father of Jiangling is gone!" Now it's time for me to wait for the Qingliu Kuangfu system! ”
"What if Jiangling will return to his hometown?"
Zhao Yongxian replied.
Wu Zhongxing said: "If this is the case, it is better, the new policy can be broken, and the etiquette system can be complete!" ”
"You're right!"
"Now that he Zhang Juzheng has only unified his own henchmen, there is no one who can inherit his mantle, and it is the right time for him to leave at this time!"
Zhao Yongxian nodded and said: "In short, if you go to Jiangling now, the Zhang Party will definitely fall into infighting without a leader, and then fall apart!" ”
"But it's almost impossible, how can Gangneung let his new deal be interrupted, and even his party will fall apart!"
Wu Zhongxing said.
After hearing this, Zhao Yongxian said: "I hope he can go to Jiangling, so he doesn't have to turn against each other!" For him, this is actually an opportunity to retreat from the rapids. ”
"That's right, it's time for the New Deal to end! The world's corporal doctors have been suffering for a long time! Rather than waiting for His Majesty to end him in the future, it is better for him to end him in Gangneung himself, and maybe he can save his name! ”
Wu Zhongxing said.
"In public opinion, should the New Deal end or not?"
Zhang Han, the secretary of the ministry, also asked when he met with Ma Ziqiang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the next day.
Because of the death of Zhang Juzheng's father, the entire reformist faction is also panicking.
Zhang Han didn't dare to face the pressure of the new deal in front of the etiquette system, so he asked Ma Ziqiang.
Ma Ziqiang said: "Although Your Majesty also has the intention of forging ahead, but this is indeed the most suitable time to end the restructuring. ”
Zhang Han nodded: "You can't really make Your Majesty feel that the etiquette system can be made an exception, if so, what rules can restrain the emperor in the future?" ”
"It's better to discuss this matter with your uncle!"
"As long as the uncle insists on worrying, the Son of Heaven is not easy to be strong."
Ma Ziqiang said.
Zhang Han nodded after hearing this.
"Love!"
"This time we must cite the case to win the situation!"
"He Zhang Taiyue must first be loyal before he can fulfill his filial piety, and now he will retire because of this, what will he become! Except for him, no one can preside over the current new policy, I can't, you can't! ”
Zhao Zhenji said loudly to Lu Tiaoyang and Zhang Siwei in the cabinet at this time.
"Meng Jing is naturally right, but it depends on Yuanfu's own meaning."
Lu Tiaoyang Road.
Zhang Siwei also echoed: "Yes, if Yuanfu wants to worry about Ding himself, what can we do?" ”
"It's not up to him!"
"He has to stay if he wants Ding Wei, and if he doesn't want Ding Wei, he has to stay, he Zhang Taiyue wants to retreat bravely, no way!"
"If he wants to retreat bravely, then take back his words of 'I am not a phase, but a photograph'!"
"Exercising authority to change the system of the world, he Zhang Taiyue dares, and now he is exercising authority against the courtesy of the world, he will not dare?"
"If he doesn't dare, he has to dare!"
Syllable!
Zhao Zhenji slapped the table as he spoke, and said, "Let's go up together, and persuade Your Majesty to win the favor first!" Let's just say that if Your Majesty doesn't win the favor, we can't stay in this cabinet, and he Zhang Juzheng is about to pick a son, so let's just pick a son together! ”
"This ......"
Lu Tiaoyang hesitated.
Zhao Zhenji immediately got up and said: "What are you hesitating about, now this pressure can't be borne by Your Majesty and Zhang Taiyue, we also have to share some of it!" ”
Zhang Siwei nodded at this time and said: "What Meng Jing said is that let's go up, so as not to make people think that we want Yuanfu to leave." ”
"Hey! That's it! ”
Zhao Zhenji said to Zhang Siwei: "It's still you Zhang Ziwei who has a scheming!" ”
Zhang Siwei: "......"
So, before Zhu Yijun received Zhang Juzheng's "Begging for Grace and Guarding the System", he first received Zhao Zhenji, Lu Tiaoyang, and Zhang Siwei asking him to help Jin Youzi, Li Xian, and Yang Pu to Zhang Juzheng's love.
Zhu Yijun was naturally very satisfied with this, and hurriedly approved the performance of the three of them, and gave an order to Zhang Juzheng to let His Excellency the Cabinet Order, saying: "The patriarchy should be guarded, the monarch's father is especially important, and he is allowed to pass the seventy-seven, and then enter the cabinet as usual, and follow the court on the expiration date of the service period." ”
As for the next, Zhang Juzheng's "Begging for Grace and Guarding the System", Zhu Yijun naturally criticized it inaccurately.
"Next, Mr. Zhang will not be allowed to beg for mercy and guard the system!"
"For the negligence of officials who oppose the seizure of affection in everything, they will all stay in the center and ignore them!"
Zhu Yijun instructed the celebrant to criticize Zhang Juzheng's first "Begging Grace and Guarding the System", and continued to give orders in a deep voice.
