Chapter 5 Zhang Juzheng returns to the lake
After Zhang Juzheng sorted out last night, he immediately went to meet the little emperor with his own folds, and the little emperor still trusted Zhang Juzheng very much, and the little emperor just symbolically looked at it a few times, and then passed one by one.
After Zhang Juzheng finished this matter, he began to let his subordinates pack up and prepare to go, this time he only brought a few servants with him, because although Zhang Juzheng was in the capital, but five of his six sons were in their hometown, one was to keep filial piety for themselves, and the other was to protect them, only the eldest son Zhang Jingxiu was in the capital, Zhang Jingxiu was a jinshi in the eight years of Wanli, was elected as a Shujishi, and now he is still in the Hanlin Academy.
In the past few days of packing up, people from Zhang Juzheng's faction have come to say goodbye, everyone is still trying their best to keep Zhang Juzheng, for fear that their backer will fall, Zhang Yun looked at this scene from the side, and couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, if he doesn't leave, your backer will really fall. In history, Zhang Juzheng was less than fifty years old when he died, he had to grasp everything with one hand, and he had to guard against the tricks of Zhang Siwei and others, these under his hands were like vampires, sucking Zhang Juzheng's blood, but Zhang Juzheng died, when the Zhang family was liquidated, none of them stood up, and in the end it was Zhang Juzheng's eldest son, Zhang Jingxiu was starved to death, this matter reached Wanli's ears, and the liquidation of Zhang Juzheng stopped.
After Zhang Juzheng relieved everyone who came, he let them leave.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day when Zhang Juzheng left the capital. Zhang Juzheng's specific itinerary was not informed to many people, but only told Emperor Wanli and some old friends.
Outside Beijing, next to the willow tree. Zhang Juzheng glanced at the few people who came to see him off, they were all people he knew, and it was inconvenient for Emperor Wanli to send them in person, so he sent his eunuch Feng Bao to come.
"Uncle, you are worried at this time, I'm afraid that I won't be able to support myself in the cabinet, and that Zhang Siwei will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble." At this time, a middle-aged man in a red robe, a rhino horn belt around his waist, and leather boots on his feet said.
Zhang Juzheng responded with a smile: "Ru Mo doesn't have to worry, you are also the elder of the cabinet, don't be afraid of that Zhang Siwei, besides, isn't Father-in-law Feng Bao still there?" ”
Zhang Yun was shocked, it turned out that this person was Shen Shixing. Shen Shixing is the cabinet minister of the Ming Dynasty, the champion of Jiajing for 41 years, this person is a good man, no one can be offended, and finally became the longest-reigning first assistant after Zhang Juzheng, who has been criticized in history, saying that he is a snake and mouse at both ends, left and right, but I have to admire that he went through three generations of emperors, and finally lived to the age of eighty before dying. Zhang Yun doesn't care what others say about him, at least he has to study hard with this big brother.
After hearing Zhang Juzheng's words, Feng Bao also smiled and said: "Lord Zhang is right, our family is not a vegetarian, if Zhang Siwei really dares to cover the sky in the cabinet, you can come and tell our family, and our family will let him know who is the real master of the cabinet." ”
After hearing this, Shen Shixing, a good old man, could only laugh on the side. After Zhang Juzheng said goodbye to his old friends one by one, he called Zhang Yun and Zhang Jingxiu to his side, and taught the two of them: "After I leave, the two of you must help each other, act in a low-key manner, and do not conflict with others. ”
After Zhang Jingxiu and Zhang Yun heard this, they nodded. Zhang Juzheng looked at Zhang Jingxiu's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and couldn't help but be a little angry, and scolded: "Manly man, just say anything, don't be awkward." ”
Zhang Jingxiu trembled when he heard Zhang Juzheng's scolding, and then plucked up the courage to ask: "Father, didn't Your Majesty already give you love before, besides, isn't there a few younger brothers guarding your grandfather's spirit, why did my father resign from the position of first assistant!" ”
Zhang Juzheng didn't speak after hearing this, but just looked at Zhang Jingxiu with some disappointment. When Zhang Yun heard Zhang Jingxiu's words, he almost choked to death with his own saliva, no, what is your father's physical condition, don't you count it in your own heart? If you don't adjust it, it is estimated that you will not be able to survive this year, I think Zhang Juzheng's sudden death in history is estimated to have something to do with these uncompetitive sons.
Zhang Jingxiu saw that Zhang Juzheng did not speak, coupled with Zhang Juzheng's serious expression, his body couldn't help trembling, he is Zhang Juzheng's eldest son, Zhang Juzheng has great expectations for him since he was a child, Zhang Juzheng is still very strict with the education of his children, because he is the eldest son in the family, he must set an example for his younger brothers, he has always wanted to become, and his father wants him to become. He has been living in the shadow of Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Yun saw this, and immediately felt that this cousin seemed to be quite good, although he was the son of Shoufu, but he never obtained his father's political resources, but was starved to death when his house was raided.
As soon as Zhang Yun thought of this, he said to Zhang Juzheng with a smile: "Uncle, my cousin has not come to the officialdom to experience it yet, and I don't know the Tao of officialdom. ”
Zhang Yun was still a little tricky of him, but when he said the end, he remembered that he was a Shujishi of the Hanlin Academy, and he was just a showman, which was like a junior college student who sympathized with others in Shangqingbei. After Zhang Yun finished speaking, he was silent.
After Zhang Juzheng heard Zhang Yun's words, he said to Zhang Jingxiu: "After I leave, you, as an elder brother, must take good care of your younger brother, and you can't let your younger brother learn badly. ”
Seeing this, Zhang Jingxiu also hurriedly took the lead, and Zhang Juzheng was also a little disappointed when he looked at his submissive appearance.
Before Zhang Juzheng left, he came to Zhang Yun's side and said to Zhang Yun with a smile: "Do you have anything else to say to me?" ”
Zhang Yun took a step back, arched his hand to Zhang Juzheng and said, "Little nephew congratulates uncle, show your strength in the two lakes, and succeed!" ”
When Zhang Juzheng heard this, he also laughed heartily, then turned around and got into the carriage, and ordered the convoy to move forward quickly.
Zhang Jingxiu lowered his head and saluted in the direction of Zhang Juzheng's departure, and did not dare to raise his head until Zhang Juzheng's convoy was far away.
After Zhang Yun saw Zhang Juzheng leaving, he hooked Zhang Jingxiu's shoulder and asked jokingly, "Big brother, do you know where you can have some fun in this capital?" ”
Forbidden City, in the Imperial Palace. Emperor Wanli looked at Feng Bao, who came to restore his life in front of him, and asked solemnly, "Is Mr. Zhang really gone?" ”
After hearing this, Feng Bao immediately returned respectfully: "Lord Zhang is really gone, and now it is estimated that he is almost out of the capital boundary." ”
Wanli slapped his thigh excitedly after hearing this, and then walked back and forth in the palace, waving his little hands that had nowhere to put them. "Okay, now I can finally do what I like." After that, he asked Feng Bao to hurry up and pass Zhang Yun to meet him, and wanted Zhang Yun to take him out for a wave.
