Chapter 105: One Wrong Step, Every Step Wrong

Zhang Zhang Juzheng presided over the land survey in the Southern Capital, returning fields, the Songjiang Sea Town Water Division, the preparation of the Shipping Office, the extraction of foreign ships, the entry of Great Frangis envoys into the capital, and other matters, which easily led people to misunderstand that Zhang Zhang Juzheng only spoke of interests. For the sake of interests, he could ignore the distinction between China and barbarians, and could be affectionate with the Great Frangis people.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng immediately presided over the recruitment and pacification of Lin Lin Afeng, the filling of sea pirates with southern troops, the attack on Luzon, and other matters, highlighting a treacherous and deceitful nature of going back on his word.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng had to make it clear what his basic attitude toward barbarians was: barbarians have wolf faces and beast hearts, fearing power but not cherishing virtue.

This is a result obtained from long-term experience accumulation. The communication and communication between the Little Frangis people and the Great Ming also went through long-term games and bloody struggles before the Little Frangis people were willing to include their merchant ships in the Great Ming's extraction, even if it was 0% tax, they were willing to pay taxes.

The Little Frangis people ran rampant on the sea for more than a hundred years. When were they taxed by others?

Zhang Zhang Juzheng's attitude of speaking of interests and being pragmatic would definitely be considered a representative figure of Legalism. His words, actions, and deeds, if measured by Legalism, would be very appropriate. But in fact, Zhang Zhang Juzheng is still a Confucian scholar at heart. He speaks of interests and even more of benevolence and righteousness. He is a politician with Confucianism as his bone and Legalism as his means.

In education, Zhang Zhang Juzheng has always wanted to teach the Little Emperor benevolence and righteousness. Zhang Zhang Juzheng has his own ideal country, his own Great Harmony world. In his Great Harmony world, dirty and tiring work is done by ministers, and the Emperor is wise and flawless, with no loss of merit. Even if there are some dirty and shameless things, they are done by ministers, and it has nothing to do with His Majesty!

Of course, Zhang Zhang Juzheng also saw that he didn't teach the Emperor benevolence and righteousness at all. The Little Emperor, who learned everything else at once, did things that had something to do with benevolence and righteousness, but not much.

Look at the things the Little Emperor did: holding a meeting on the third day of every month to scold people, showing no disguise for his disgust for the clan party, being polite on the surface to the Frangis people, but stabbing them in the back in the most shameless way possible, without any moral pressure at all.

What can Zhang Zhang Juzheng do? He is just an Imperial Tutor. The Little Emperor is an independent person, and the most supreme one at that.

"Teacher, let's not lecture today. Let's talk about your New Deal." Zhu Zhu Yijun closed the "Four Books Direct Explanation" and talked about Zhang Zhang Juzheng's New Deal.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng bowed and said: "I obey the decree."

Zhang Zhang Juzheng did not speak for a long time. He needed to organize his language. Although the Little Emperor asked suddenly, as the omnipotent Zhang Zhang Juzheng, except for those fundamental problems that destroyed the worldview, Zhang Zhang Juzheng was still at ease.

He held his hands and said: "I examine myself three times a day, and I have gained something, but there are still omissions in my thoughts. If I want to talk about the New Deal, I must start from the beginning, peel the cocoon, and find the thread and context to explain it clearly. This Great Ming's reform should start from Emperor Xiaomiao."

Zhu Zhu Yijun was also stunned when he heard this, and asked suspiciously: "Oh? Why start from Emperor Xiaomiao? What about before?"

Zhang Zhang Juzheng took a deep breath, looking a bit embarrassed but still definitely said: "Your Majesty, I am overstepping."

"Before that, the local areas generally followed the ancestral laws, such as the Salt Opening Law, border military colonies, border troops, and taxes. From the perspective of taxes, since Xiaomiao, taxes have become increasingly stretched, and the affairs of the world have gradually deteriorated."

"Power is from top to bottom, and also from bottom to top."

"Before Xiaomiao, the struggles of the Great Ming were still family affairs in the court; after Xiaomiao, it was the seeking of change after the laws of the world gradually deteriorated."

Zhang Zhang Juzheng was not generally bold, understanding what happened before Xiaomiao as family affairs, the family affairs of the Zhu family.

The main contradictions in the early Ming Dynasty indeed had typical manifestations of family affairs, such as the Jingnan Campaign, the rebellion of the Prince of Han, the capture of Emperor Ying, the defense of the world by Emperor Emperor Jingtai, the Change of the Gate, and the restoration of Emperor Zhang Xian.

But by the time of Xiaomiao, the family affairs of the Zhu family had instead become side issues, and the main contradictions and struggles had shifted from the temple to the world.

For example, from the Salt Opening Law to the Silver Opening Law, it can be said to be a fundamental destruction of the border system, and the fierce land annexation also started from Xiaomiao. The rapid expansion of the power of the Grand Secretary, which was no less than that of a Prime Minister, and the evils of indulgence and bribery, all happened after Xiaomiao.

The contradictions before Xiaomiao were relatively single and clear, while the contradictions after Xiaomiao became complex and chaotic, with you in me and me in you.

"This is not your original idea, teacher." Zhu Zhu Yijun was stunned when he heard Zhang Zhang Juzheng's statement. Zhang Zhang Juzheng's statement was not completely the same as his consistent propositions in the past, such as the Six Affairs Memorial and the Time Politics Memorial.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng used to hope that the Emperor was wise and the ministers were virtuous, but now Zhang Zhang Juzheng has changed.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng said quite definitely: "Heaven changes, people change. My knowledge has improved slightly. Seeing mountains as mountains, seeing mountains not as mountains, seeing mountains as mountains again. I look at history with contradiction theory, and I only feel that it is different, so it is not the same as the past. Yang Bo is not the Yang Bo of yesterday, but the Yang Bo of today."

"I understand." Zhu Zhu Yijun's mouth curled into a smile and quickly spread, full of smiles: "Teacher, continue to talk about the New Deal."

Zhang Zhang Juzheng's cognition has climbed the steps. Although this process was extremely painful, Zhang Zhang Juzheng, who held the unity of knowledge and action in his left hand and the contradiction theory in his right hand, was completely different from the past.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng has become more powerful. The strengthened Zhang Zhang Juzheng has no one as his opponent. His opponent is only the rotten and terrible situation of the world.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng held his hands and continued: "Poverty leads to change. From the imperial court to the local level, the call for reform has gradually risen. Xiaomiao also tried to use the ancestral laws of the Great Ming's founding to rectify the world. For the order of the world and the system of the country, he made short-term efforts, but unfortunately, gentle reform has no much benefit to the world. By the During Zhengde period, various contradictions became increasingly sharp, and the struggle became cruel."

The reason why Xiaozong is Xiaozong is because his governing philosophy was to follow the ancestral laws of the founding of Emperor Hongwu and Yongle. This is the source of the temple name.

Unfortunately, Xiaozong was blocked by the Grand Secretariat even when he wanted to take a concubine. He lived his whole life with only one empress and gave birth to only one son. As the core of the empire, the Emperor having only one heir is extremely irresponsible.

Once this heir has a problem, it will lead to turmoil in the imperial court, which is of no benefit to the country.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng read history. Xiaozong and Empress Zhang were not a love story of one husband and one wife, but a horror story of imperial power and ministerial power biting each other.

After Xiaozong ascended the throne, he issued a decree to take a concubine, but was blocked by the Grand Secretariat.

Xiaozong was an Emperor who couldn't even control who was by his side, let alone the affairs of the world.

Empress Zhang of Xiaozong doted on her brothers extremely. Her brothers, who had several sons, attended a dinner party in the palace and wore Xiaozong's twelve-tasseled crown on their heads.

What kind of crime is this? A crime that wipes out nine clans!

If Zhang Zhang Juzheng dared to wear the Little Emperor's twelve-tasseled crown, Empress Dowager Li would dare to go crazy, and even if the Great Ming's national affairs were rotten, she would drive Zhang Zhang Juzheng out.

In the palace, the eunuch He Ding angrily scolded the two relatives for daring to wear the Emperor's crown. Xiaozong heard the news and actually put He Ding in prison, and then Empress Zhang killed the eunuch He Ding with a blank paper.

Look at Empress Dowager Li again. She twisted and squeezed to ask for 4,000 taels of silver for her father. After seeing the situation was not right, she immediately confiscated it and changed the name to reward it. Compared with Empress Zhang's behavior, this behavior is enough to be called virtuous.

Empress Dowager Zhang and her two brothers did not get any good after the Emperor Jiajing Emperor entered the Great Sect from the side branch. The two brothers of Empress Dowager Zhang were directly beheaded by Emperor Jiajing.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng continued: "In the early years of Shizong, the Great Rites Controversy was a struggle motivated and triggered by the consolidation of imperial power. In the end, it was the monarch and ministers working together to update the atmosphere. The reform was based on the imperial court's decrees, supplemented by the local level, and gradually converged into a reform wave, and then gradually died out in the struggle."

When Zhang Zhang Juzheng talked about the reforms in the early, middle, and late periods of Emperor Jiajing, he started with the "Great Rites New Nobles" led by Zhang Cong and Gui E. In the early years of Emperor Jiajing, the results of a series of reforms were exciting, and the scene was prosperous, and all people with lofty ideals were overjoyed.

The New Deal in the early years of Emperor Jiajing included but was not limited to: rectifying the Censorate, abolishing the garrison eunuchs, abolishing the hereditary titles of relatives, reducing the salary of the clan, and the Single Whip Law in various places, etc.

But with Zhang Cong going to office due to illness, the Grand Secretaries became Zi Xia Yan, Yan Song, and Xu Xu Jie. The results of the reform were exhausted in the repeated southward invasion of the Northern Barbarians and the Japanese pirates in the southeast, and the world was exhausted.

The Emperor Jiajing Emperor also gradually lost his original sharpness.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng bowed and said: "Your Majesty holds court, and I have seen the New Deal with my own eyes, but it is only four words: enrich the country and strengthen the army. However, after having contradiction theory, I have considered my New Deal. As I said, power is from top to bottom, and also from bottom to top. The New Deal needs to be from top to bottom, and also from bottom to top. It is not a whim of a person or a collective that is enough to succeed. This is the truth you taught me."

"I have gained a little, and I am also correcting the mistakes of the past bit by bit in the practice."

"It is easy to say but difficult to do. Teacher, you have worked hard." Zhu Zhu Yijun watched how Zhang Zhang Juzheng changed the law. This process was difficult, but extremely firm. It was only four words to enrich the country and strengthen the army, but how much did Zhang Zhang Juzheng do to make things move forward bit by bit?

Zhu Zhu Yijun and Zhang Zhang Juzheng had a communication about national affairs, and then ended today's lecture.

After practicing martial arts, Empress Dowager Li tested the Little Emperor's homework today. On the candidates of Yin Governor Yin Zhengmao and Ling Governor Ling Yunyi, Empress Dowager Li also made her judgment.

Empress Dowager Li said slowly: "Whether it is Yin Governor Yin Zhengmao or Ling Governor Ling Yunyi, or Pan Pan Jixun, they are all Zhang's people, but they are also ministers of our Great Ming. I don't like Zhang's six-color cards. They are all ministers of the Great Ming. Why divide into parties and factions? Whoever is easy to use, use them. Whoever is not easy to use, dismiss them."

Zhu Zhu Yijun thought for a while and planned to talk about the inevitability of forming parties in the court, from two aspects, explaining from metaphysical cognition to physical belief. He opened his mouth and said: "Mother, this..."

Empress Dowager Li immediately reached out and said: "I know, I know, I am just a woman with short knowledge, so the Emperor doesn't have to talk about big principles. What is the inevitability of the development of things, what is the spear and shield, the Emperor talks about these, I can't understand."

"The Emperor has learned a lot of principles from Zhang, and I know that you have achieved academic success, so you don't have to tell me."

"As long as Zhang doesn't go further and usurp the divine vessel, you can do whatever you want, no need to ask me for my opinion."

"Stop, stop!"

Empress Dowager Li directly sealed the eloquent Little Emperor. What big principles to talk about!

She doesn't like to listen!

You Little Emperor handle things with proper measure, so you handle them. She, Empress Dowager Li, is not obsessed with power, she just plays a bottom-line role. Her role is to watch Zhang Zhang Juzheng and not let Zhang Zhang Juzheng learn from Gao Gong to pull out the Emperor's fangs.

"Mother, this half year has been very relaxed. Just watching the children is also leisurely. Those things in the court, the fighting and fighting, I am not interested." Empress Dowager Li looked at the five-year-old Zhu Zhu Yiliu and frowned. She didn't watch for a while, and this little baby went to dig the sand pit again.

Empress Dowager Li's relaxation benefited from the Little Emperor's growth. The Little Emperor became more and more like a human monarch, and Empress Dowager Li became more and more quiet.

She couldn't do much herself. She came from a poor background and had no help from her family. Those relatives of her family, except for wanting money, didn't know anything else. The Little Emperor gradually grew up, and Empress Dowager Li's days didn't have to be so worried and worried.

"Mother, Heaven changes..." Zhu Zhu Yijun still wanted to talk about what he saw today, talk about the strengthened Zhang Zhang Juzheng, and some new insights on reform and the New Deal, especially the importance of power from top to bottom and from bottom to top.

Empress Dowager Li stood up, pulled Zhu Zhu Yiliu out of the sand pit, pointed to the target in the martial arts room and said: "Go play! Go play! Even if you go to archery! Or go to Baoqisi, go, go, go."

"Yes." Zhu Zhu Yijun had to agree. Empress Dowager Li is now tired of learning. Zhu Zhu Yijun talks, and Empress Dowager Li can't listen.

On the way to Baoqisi, Zhu Zhu Yijun said to Zhang Hong: "Zhang Daban, our Grand Secretary Zhang Yuanfu is becoming more and more powerful now. I will tell you in detail about where he is powerful."

Zhang Hong was sluggish for a while and said: "I am dull. I am still reading Confucianism. The dialogue between Your Majesty and Zhang is a bit complicated. The Master said that there is no class in education, and the Master also said that teaching according to aptitude. I will finish reading Confucianism, and then Your Majesty will tell me. Otherwise, I can't understand it, right?"

Zhang Hong read less books, even less than Feng Bao. He is now taking advantage of the lecture to make up for the Confucian classics every day. Contradiction theory is too complicated for him.

"Feng Da Ban, I will tell you." Zhu Zhu Yijun thought, Zhang Hong might not understand.

Feng Bao shivered and said: "Your Majesty is too high on me. I can't understand it either. I can understand the classics, read some history, and scold the disobedient ministers. It is already my best effort."

Compared with the more complex contradiction theory and public-private theory, those Confucian classics that bite the text are cute!

Contradiction theory and public-private theory are things studied by the Emperor and Zhang Yuanfu. For Feng Bao, what he has to do is to scold people in the Zhao Wenhua Hall, scold them as harshly as possible. Feng Bao has a very clear understanding of his own positioning. He is a worker. If he expects him to point fingers at the direction of the Great Ship of the State, he doesn't have that ability and talent.

"Okay." Zhu Zhu Yijun was extremely sorry, just like drawing a top-level card from the card pool and strengthening it, wanting to show off, but having nowhere to show off.

Empress Dowager Li, Zhang Hong, and Feng Bao all find it difficult to understand how terrible Zhang Zhang Juzheng's transformation is.

But those worms in the Great Ming Dynasty who are fighting for their own private interests can physically feel this terror.

For example, Zhang Zhang Siwei.

When Zhang Zhang Siwei heard that the history books in the court had been compiled, the teacup in his hand fell to the ground, and the teacup shattered, and the tea and tea leaves flowed onto Zhang Zhang Siwei's shoes. Zhang Zhang Siwei didn't hear it.

Grass snakes and gray lines, the development of things is not without signs, but left faint clues and traces, but Zhang Zhang Siwei did not see these clues and traces clearly at that time.

Wan Wan Shihe's several lectures on ancestral laws were wrong. Zhang Zhang Juzheng said that the slow compilation was his fault. Clearing Hu Hai Zongxian's name seemed to be chasing Xu Xu Jie, but it was actually to determine the nature of several problems in the national history. All these seemingly unrelated things were connected, resulting in today's result.

The national history has been compiled, and he, Zhang Zhang Siwei, did not get any merit in compiling history. The door to entering the cabinet is welded shut. How can he enter the cabinet? Zhang Zhang Siwei returned to the court, only to be a small official in the Hanlin Academy!

"Zhang Zhang Juzheng, you have done all the bad things, you are really insidious!" Zhang Zhang Siwei patted the table and stood up, extremely sad. It took too long to climb from a small official in the Hanlin Academy to the cabinet, at least twenty years.

"No, no, I have to think of a way, for the national history!" Zhang Zhang Siwei's eyes lit up, and he said to Wan Wan Shihe: "Wan Gong, help me. The first draft of the national history is finished, but there are still some problems that need to be determined. As long as we can set off this public opinion, won't I have the merit of compiling history when I return to the court?"

"Yes, yes, that's it!"

Zhang Zhang Siwei also reads contradiction theory. Although he always says that he reads it with a critical eye, he reads it more seriously than others. Now that it is a major event in his official career, he immediately grasped the main contradiction point: national history.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng said that the national history has been compiled, so it is compiled? There are still some historical problems that need to be determined!

Xu Xu Jie letting Hu Hai Zongxian die in prison seems to have completely determined the nature of this matter, but it is not impossible to tear open a gap again and redefine it!

"What kind of public opinion are you going to set off?" Wan Wan Shihe asked suspiciously.

"Gao Gong!" Zhang Zhang Siwei said excitedly: "Gao Gong, why do you think Gao Gong was able to enter the cabinet back then? Wasn't it because he killed Hu Hai Zongxian, and then was recommended by Xu Xu Jie?"

"That's it, that's it."

Wan Wan Shihe frowned and looked at Zhang Zhang Siwei and said: "What does Gao Gong have to do with Hu Hai Zongxian's death in prison?"

Zhang Zhang Siwei smiled lightly: "Do you really think Gao Gong is so clean? The loyal and virtuous one is Gao Gong, but the one who follows the trend and uses blue words to invite favor, isn't that Gao Gong? Where exactly is Hu Hai Zongxian's petition, and who blocked it? As long as we investigate, it is enough to make the national history be compiled again."

Wan Wan Shihe finally understood what Zhang Zhang Siwei was talking about. There are three mysteries in Hu Hai Zongxian's death in prison, and none of them have been solved. And Zhang Zhang Siwei intends to solve the problem of Hu Hai Zongxian's petition in the mystery of death in prison, and then let the national history be compiled again, so he can get this merit and ride the wind.

Wan Wan Shihe whispered: "Can't investigate."

"Why can't investigate?" Zhang Zhang Siwei was stunned, looking at Wan Wan Shihe and said sternly.

Wan Wan Shihe said quite definitely: "Gao Gong cannot be investigated. He carries a case of assassinating the King. Once Gao Gong is investigated, this case must continue to be investigated. You must know that the great case of assassinating the King was exchanged by Yang Taizai with his resignation, support for Zhang Zhang Juzheng's Kao Cheng Law, and the change of the Minister of Personnel to Zhang Han after his resignation, these three conditions, in exchange for Zhang Zhang Juzheng's peace."

"You investigate Gao Gong, the case of assassinating the King will inevitably be mentioned again. Are you confused?"

Zhang Zhang Siwei took a breath. He only cared about the merit of compiling history, but completely forgot to look back. The case of assassinating the King is a topic that cannot be touched. Touching Gao Gong is equivalent to burning himself.

"Wan Gong is right." Zhang Zhang Siwei shivered and said: "Yes, yes, can't touch, can't touch."

"But Gao Gong can't be touched, how can the national history be compiled again?"

Wan Wan Shihe tentatively said: "Why not stop compiling? It's compiled quite well, and I'm also in a hurry to see it."

Wan Wan Shihe is really in a hurry to see it, because his understanding of ancestral laws is not deep enough, which has led to his position in the Ministry of Rites becoming precarious. A group of people below, including Ma Ma Ziqiang, Shen Shen Shixing, and even the Left Vice Minister of the Court of State Ceremonial, Chen Shu, are sharpening their knives, intending to kick him away and sit as a Ming gentleman himself!

Wan Wan Shihe has his own crisis. He cannot go to the end on Zhang Zhang Siwei's road. What he needs most now is to ensure that his position is stable, and if he helps Zhang Zhang Siwei again, he will have to resign.

Recently, Wan Wan Shihe's reading has been partially recognized by the Emperor. At least the Emperor no longer asked him whether he was an official for the gentry or an official for the Great Ming. The Little Emperor's words were sharp, fully embodying what it means to be a child who doesn't know how to measure.

If there is merit in annotating history books, and the Little Emperor understands national history, then Wan Wan Shihe is also a great merit.

"What to do, what to do, what to do?" Zhang Zhang Siwei was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, walking around. Ge Ge Shouli not only didn't support him, but also borrowed Zhang Zhang Juzheng's hand to suppress him repeatedly. This time compiling history, Ge Ge Shouli's two running dogs, Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi, not only didn't report or block, but also accelerated desperately inside!

Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi were almost standing up and stepping on the accelerator!

They were kicked out of the lecture by the Little Emperor, and Yang Bo didn't scold them, but Zhang Zhang Siwei dared to scold them!

Ge Ge Shouli knew that he couldn't fight Zhang Zhang Siwei, so he followed Yang Bo's words and borrowed Zhang Zhang Juzheng's hand to suppress Zhang Zhang Siwei. Ge Ge Shouli did just that.

Wan Wan Shihe was also helpless and said: "You said you, why did you entertain Li Le in the Quanchu Hall when Yang Taizai hadn't resigned and was still the leader of the party? Even if you changed a place, it would be fine. Taizai was still in the court, even Zhang Yuanfu treated him with courtesy, and he treated him as a disciple. Taizai liked Zhang Yuanfu and always called him Bai Gui, and asked Zhang Yuanfu to preside over the Jin party several times."

"You said you, why did you offend Yang Taizai?"

Zhang Zhang Siwei took advantage of Yang Bo's work in the Ministry of Personnel, privately opened a hall to coerce Li Le, and completely offended Yang Bo. Yang Bo used one move to put Zhang Zhang Siwei in an extremely passive and awkward position. Zhang Zhang Siwei didn't expect that the old thing Yang Bo could be so powerful! When he left, he pressed Zhang Zhang Siwei to death in three or two strokes. He was slightly annoyed and said: "What's the use of saying those past things? Does Wan Minister have any ideas?"

"One wrong step, every step wrong. Now that it has reached this point, why not go and beg Zhang Zhang Juzheng?" Wan Wan Shihe provided his opinion.

"It can only be so." Zhang Zhang Siwei sighed heavily, which was an unspeakable sorrow.

At this time, in front of the Quanchu Hall, Ge Ge Shouli was handing in a visiting card with Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi. They were here to see Zhang Zhang Juzheng.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng heard that Ge Ge Shouli was visiting, came to the door of Zhao Wenchang Pavilion to wait, saw Ge Ge Shouli, walked two steps forward, and smiled: "Ge Gong visits the humble house, it is full of glory."

"Zhang Yuanfu is too polite, too polite." Ge Ge Shouli returned the salute.

Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi hurriedly saluted and said: "See Zhang Yuanfu, teacher is safe."

"See Zhang Yuanfu, teacher is safe."

Ge Ge Shouli and Zhang Zhang Juzheng exchanged pleasantries about the heavy rain and bright sunshine today, and then Ge Ge Shouli said: "I came here this time mainly for the matter of compiling history. My two disciples are extremely uneasy. I told them repeatedly that Zhang Yuanfu handles affairs impartially. Since things have been done, their names will inevitably not be missing from the list of rewards for compiling history."

"But they kept grinding their teeth, as if they couldn't be at ease without seeing the Grand Secretary, so I brought them here."

"Let Zhang Yuanfu laugh. My own disciples don't believe me, but believe Zhang Yuanfu more."

Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi were of course worried. This is a great merit.

On the one hand, this list is completely controlled by the chief editor Zhang Zhang Juzheng. If Zhang Zhang Juzheng doesn't like them and crosses out their names, they can only accept it, so naturally they have to come to give gifts to feel at ease;

On the other hand, it is Zhang Zhang Siwei. If Zhang Zhang Siwei bribes heavily and changes their two names to Zhang Zhang Siwei, where can they go to complain? Logically speaking, it is the merit of your Jin party. It is merit to divide it to Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi, and it is also merit to divide it to Zhang Zhang Siwei.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng looked at the two and said with a smile: "It has been presented to the Emperor. I, Zhang Zhang Juzheng, am just a Grand Secretary, how dare I be so reckless? If I modify it privately, and Ge Gong is present, you wouldn't impeach me? Ge Gong is the one who wants to respect the master's power."

"You two are completely overthinking."

"Thank you, Zhang Yuanfu teacher." Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi stood up and bowed respectfully. The new Jin party is not allowed to kneel, and Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi did not kneel.

"You go to the front to listen to the play. I have something to say to Zhang Yuanfu teacher." Ge Ge Shouli waved his hand, signaling the two to go to the theater building to listen to the play.

Watching the backs of Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi, Ge Ge Shouli was a bit trance-like. Last year, Yang Bo brought Ge Ge Shouli to visit Zhang Zhang Juzheng several times, which was vivid in his mind. Now it is his turn to talk about business with Zhang Zhang Juzheng, and let the two disciples listen to the play.

"Zhang Yuanfu, I came here this time for two things. Yang Taizai's life is still more merit than fault. The Jin party has become like this, which is not what Taizai wanted to see. Otherwise, I wouldn't have obtained the status of leader of the party and shown off my power. When the imperial court buries him, when giving the posthumous title, can you give a beautiful posthumous title?" The first thing Ge Ge Shouli came to Zhang Zhang Juzheng for was Yang Bo's posthumous name.

Yang Bo is already seriously ill and cannot walk. Seeing that he can't hold on, Ge Ge Shouli doesn't run for Yang Bo, so no one will run for him.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng heard this and said with great emotion: "Currently, I plan to grant him the title of Grand Tutor, posthumous title Xiangyi, and give his son the title of Dong Zhongshu Sheren. After Yang Bo dies, I will write the inscription for Yang Gong's divine path monument."

Ge Ge Shouli stood up and bowed solemnly: "Thank you, Zhang Yuanfu."

Zhang Zhang Juzheng is willing to write the inscription for Yang Bo's divine path monument. This is an affirmation. At least during the time Zhang Zhang Juzheng is in power, Yang Bo's posthumous name will not be repeated. People die and the path disappears, and there will basically be no repetition in the future.

"Is Ge Gong's second thing about Zhang Zhang Siwei?" Zhang Zhang Juzheng signaled Ge Ge Shouli to sit down and asked for details.

"Yes." Ge Ge Shouli said calmly: "Zhang Zhang Siwei is definitely not reconciled to being a small official in the Hanlin Academy. I plan to use some methods to make him reconciled."

"The overall situation of the country cannot be destroyed by him."

Zhang Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said: "Ge Gong, you can't make a move. If you make a move, your disciples will be afraid and uneasy. You are the leader of the party. This matter, let me do it."

"Zhang Chucheng impeached Zhang Zhang Siwei to resign, and also drove Wang Wang Chonggu back to fill the hole in Xuan-Da. Now Zhang Zhang Siwei returns to the court, the one who will definitely find trouble with Zhang Zhang Siwei is Zhang Chucheng."

Ge Ge Shouli was silent for a while, slightly disapproving: "If the Jin party continues to mess around like this, I am afraid there will be a big mess. Wang Wang Chonggu's achievements in rectifying the border, also to be tossed away. As the leader of the party, clearing it up is also what should be done. Rewards and punishments are where the authority lies."

"That's fine, then let's do it together, let him be honest." Zhang Zhang Juzheng thought for a while, and there was nothing wrong with it. Ge Ge Shouli had already sat firmly in his position, and indeed needed some thunderous means to deter it.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng said with a smile: "Ge Gong, the things you did like opening a hall to accept guests from all over the world, family schools, not kneeling, etc., were they also taught by Yang Taizai before he left?"

Ge Ge Shouli smiled and said: "That's not it, these are all my own ideas."

"Then I plan to copy it, and I ask Ge Gong to be generous and don't blame me." Zhang Zhang Juzheng recognized the party building work of the new Jin party very much.

Now the new Jin party can be said to be full of energy and vigorous, making the Zhang party look like a rotten old man. Zhang Zhang Juzheng also counts as copying homework, and greets Ge Ge Shouli in advance.

Ge Ge Shouli waved his hands again and again: "No problem, no problem, these are all small tricks of the side door. If Zhang Yuanfu teacher doesn't dislike it, just take it."

Zhang Zhang Juzheng sent Ge Ge Shouli away. Although Ge Ge Shouli is not as good as Yang Bo, he has done extremely well.

Ge Ge Shouli took Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi out of the Quanchu Hall, and just happened to see Zhang Zhang Siwei asking for an audience. The four people greeted each other in front of the Quanchu Hall.

"The Quanchu Hall is being decorated, so it is not convenient to see guests, please return." After the doorman reported, he threw down a cold sentence, letting Zhang Zhang Siwei go.

Zhang Zhang Siwei left in a lost soul. Zhang Zhang Juzheng didn't even let him enter the door.

Ge Ge Shouli looked at Zhang Zhang Siwei's back and said: "Wang Wang Jiaping, Zhang Zhang Siwei keeps a mistress, and the family has caused a disaster. Make a noise about this matter, find a Censorate official, and question it. If you can't even take care of your family, how can you govern the country?"

"Yes." Wang Wang Jiaping and Fan Fan Yingqi felt a chill in their hearts and hurriedly said.

Ge Ge Shouli is not completely a good person, he will also lose his temper.

And Zhang Chucheng's accusation intensity went from Zhang Zhang Siwei's background.

Zhang Chucheng submitted a petition to the court about Zhang Zhang Siwei's return to the court: The salt law is bad because of the monopoly of big merchants, and the powerful families are the basis, so it doesn't work. Because he pointed out that Wang Wang Chonggu's younger brother and Zhang Zhang Siwei's father were big merchants, and Wang Chonggu and Zhang Siwei were powerful families, he requested to punish Wang Chonggu for not using Zhang Siwei!

The joint strangulation of the Jin party and the Zhang party made Zhang Zhang Siwei's road to return to the court extremely difficult.

Here is an explanation: Zhang Zhang Siwei was originally the Left Vice Minister of Personnel, but he was forced to become the Manager of the Zhan Shi Mansion by himself. Compared with the Left Vice Minister, it is indeed a small official in the Hanlin Academy, so Zhang Zhang Siwei's return to the court is also the Manager of the Zhan Shi Mansion, not the Left Vice Minister of Personnel.
