Wanli Youming

Chapter 10 The emperor is holy!

Zhu Yijun nodded.

In fact, when Zhu Yijun was able to accept lectures at Wenhua Hall today, Zhang Juzheng was forced to compromise and appointed Hai Rui instead of Xu Fan and Xu Kun. Bao's Zhang Hong was unwilling to interfere with the emperor.

Otherwise, Feng Bao could have asked the emperor to approve the redemption on the grounds that the result of Mr. Zhang's handling was politically correct and could not be refuted, so that Zhang Juzheng's proposal would directly become an imperial decree!

Therefore, the fact that Zhu Yijun forced Zhang Juzheng to change his mind during the lecture in the Wenhua Palace in the morning did not mean that Zhu Yijun's methods were so clever that he could directly force Zhang Juzheng to surrender.

It was only at this time that Zhu Yijun realized that there was still a gap between him and Feng Baobi in terms of power struggle.

Without Feng Bao, he could rely on his status as the emperor, and as a traveler, he knew better about the current Ming Dynasty than Wanli in history, and he could suppress Zhang Juzheng in some government affairs.

But when Feng Bao came, he couldn't suppress Zhang Juzheng at all, nor could he make Zhang Juzheng obey his will.

Because Feng Bao can completely use his identity as the minister of Gu Ming, coupled with the trust of the queen mothers of the two palaces in Zhang Juzheng and Confucian ethics, to force himself, the emperor, to obey Zhang Juzheng's will unconditionally.

Moreover, Zhu Yijun himself has to admit that Feng Bao is very good at acting.

Because if Zhu Yijun hadn't known that Feng Bao was more greedy than Zhang Juzheng in history, and was also arbitrarily domineering, based on Feng Bao's words now, he would only believe that Feng Bao was really thinking about him, and the resistance that prevented him from exercising imperial power was just From the Empress Dowagers of the Two Palaces and Zhang Juzheng.

After all, on the bright side, Feng Bao was just analyzing for himself, and he didn't force himself, the emperor, to do as he wanted, and he only persuaded himself to listen to Zhang Juzheng from the beginning to the end.

"Your Majesty?"

Feng Bao did not act domineering in front of Zhu Yijun, but had a calm tone.

Even after Feng Bao confirmed that Zhu Yijun might be different from ordinary young emperors, and that he was early wise and bright, there was a hint of caution in his tone.

Therefore, Feng Bao asked another question at this time, instead of directly ordering people to take Zhang Juzheng's ticket for approval.

Not only that, seeing that Zhu Yijun didn't speak, Feng Bao took the initiative to say with a smile: "My lord, if you really want to be arbitrary, you don't have to assist Mr. Zhang. Anyway, the old slave must listen to the lord Commanded."

Zhu Yijun looked at Feng Bao: "Big companion, you misunderstood! How can I not want to believe in Mr. Yuanfu Zhang. What I believe in most is Mr. Yuanfu Zhang, and you, you two are the orders my father left for me. Minister. Without any of you, I would be uneasy."

Zhu Yijun ordered: "Criticize the red! You are right. If you have any doubts, I can ask Mr. Yuanfu Zhang and ask him why he did this. But you can't act arbitrarily and let Mr. Yuanfu Zhang down because of this." Behavior, and because of this, he got the name of a single husband."

Zhu Yijun really can't really ignore Queen Mother Li now, nor can he abandon Zhang Juzheng.

On the one hand, if he really disobeyed Empress Dowager Li now, Empress Dowager Li would be able to tear his face apart, unite Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, charge him with any crime of unfilial piety, and threaten him like in history, saying that he will be abolished.

On the other hand, from the perspective of long-term interests, he still needs Zhang Juzheng to complete the reforms in the early years of Wanli for him, so as to lay the foundation for his future pro-government. He is not yet suitable to fight with the bureaucracy in person.

Therefore, Zhu Yijun could only obey Feng Bao's wishes at this time.

"The sage of the emperor! The late emperor has a soul in the sky, and he will be happy."

Feng Bao saw that Zhu Yijun was so knowledgeable, and while he was delighted, he did not forget to flatter him.

Of course he can't force Zhu Yijun to act according to his will, but he can use various reasons to make Zhu Yijun act according to Zhang Juzheng's will, and he can make Zhang Juzheng act according to his will.

Because Zhang Juzheng is worthy of the Queen Mother's trust, it's all a matter of his words.

Here Feng Bao gritted his teeth and endured the pain on his face, and approved Zhang Juzheng's vote.

And Zhu Yijun watched this scene with his own eyes, without saying a word.

He knew that it might be because he was too smart, for example, he knew people like Hai Rui, Xu Fan, and Xu Kun, and he had prepared in advance his speech to reject Zhang Juzheng's draft opinion, so Feng Bao, the political leader of Zhang Juzheng and Queen Mother Li, The alliance became more vigilant, so that Feng Bao had to work with injuries himself.

"It would be great if there is no Feng Bao, and it would be great if a eunuch like Zhang Hong who doesn't take the initiative to intervene in his hand is the supervisor of ceremonies!"

Zhu Yijun thought so in his heart.

"Returning to Your Majesty, although Zhao Zhenji has excellent talents, he often speaks freely and does not have the magnanimity that a minister should have. The minister was concerned about his lack of tolerance, so he did not use it. If your majesty insists on using it, the minister should draft a new draft."

On this day, when the Wenhua Palace was taking a rest, Zhu Yijun still asked Zhang Juzheng why he didn't use Zhao Zhenji.

Zhang Juzheng also answered his reasons, and he did not show arbitrariness, and said that if the emperor insisted on using it, he would not object.

Zhang Juzheng made such a statement, naturally because he had known in advance that the ticket that Zhao Zhenji would not be used had been approved as red, so he pretended to be a gesture.

At this moment, Zhu Yijun had no choice but to say: "No need! Mr. Yuanfu Zhang can explain the reason, so that I don't get confused. How can I not follow Mr.'s intention without any reason? I have ordered the Supervisor of Rites to approve the original draft of Mr. This Zhao Zhenji, let him spend the rest of his life at home!"

Zhang Juzheng breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time cupped his hands: "Your Majesty trusts me, and I will repay your kindness with all my heart!"

Zhu Yijun didn't say anything.

In fact, Zhu Yijun knew that the real reason why Zhang Juzheng didn't use Zhao Zhenji was that Zhao Zhenji was not as honest as Lu Tiaoyang.

Moreover, in history, Zhao Zhenji was as outspoken as Hai Rui, and repeatedly scolded Yan Song directly, and was sentenced to jail and boarded because of this, but he was lucky not to be beaten to death.

It can be said that it is actually a completely different character from Jo Jung-gil in a certain TV series.

And once Zhao Zhenji like this enters the cabinet, he will naturally not listen to Zhang Juzheng, and Zhang Juzheng will naturally not appoint someone who is unwilling to listen to him.

Zhu Yijun can also understand this, and he also knows that since he wants to use Zhang Juzheng to offend the bureaucracy for himself, so as to solve the most urgent problem of the emptiness of the state treasury in Ming Dynasty, he really needs to give Zhang Juzheng great trust and allow Zhang Juzheng to use what he can do. People who can move, it is not appropriate to think about checking and balancing Zhang Juzheng at this time.

This is another reason why Zhu Yijun agreed to Feng Bao's approval before that.

But Zhu Yijun's real dissatisfaction is that his power is too small, so small that he may not be able to prevent Feng Bao from harming his sister in the future, and cannot prevent Zhang Juzheng from going too far in attacking dissidents. In addition, he cannot have any right to correct Zhang Juzheng's reforms.

The fundamental reason for all this is that Feng Bao is not a ceremonial inspector who really listens to the words of the emperor!
