Wanli Youming

Chapter 102
After Zhang Juzheng thought so, he told Zhang Jingxiu, "Go and invite Chen Fuyuan and Xu Fuxian again."

Zhang Jingxiu was a little puzzled after hearing this: "Didn't father already talk to them?"

"Let them complain!"

Zhang Juzheng said a word, and said: "Your Majesty can't let him feel that his husband is domineering after returning to his hometown, and no longer asks about the sufferings of the people! He is even unwilling to ask specific questions about the New Deal."

Speaking of this, Zhang Juzheng looked at the clear water and blue sky outside the cabin and said: "God's grace is unpredictable, and no one knows whether the person you have personally taught will really kick you to death after learning many skills." On the one hand, another person who is more in line with his wishes will be used."

"Even though it allowed you to retreat bravely, it also covered up your light."

After Zhang Juzheng said, he coughed because of the sudden cold wind from a river, and frowned, he said to himself: "I don't know if His Majesty will send a letter to ask about the itinerary?"

……

"Where is sir now?"

Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Yijun asked Zhang Jing about Zhang Juzheng's itinerary as soon as he came back from seeing the queen mothers of the two palaces.

Zhang Jing replied: "I must have arrived in Jiangling by now."

Zhu Yijun nodded after hearing this: "Any news about him?"

Zhang Jing nodded: "Yes, according to reports from people around Yuanfu Mr. Zhang, after hearing that His Majesty had met Gao Gong and asked Yin Shaobao to protect the military affairs of the five provinces, Mr. Zhang met again with Huguang Governor Chen Rui and Fuzhi Yun. Xu Xuemo, the royal censor of Xiangdu, asked in detail whether his clan members obstructed Qingzhang, and Mr. Zhang went to see King Xiang in person and asked him about Qingzhang and the difficulties of the Zongfu."

Zhu Yijun smiled slightly after hearing this: "Sir, this is too much worry."

Although Zhu Yijun said so, he was still happy in his heart.

Because he knew that this showed that Zhang Juzheng still cared about the position of Shoufu.

Otherwise, Zhang Juzheng would not have started to feel pressure because he knew that Gao Gong seemed to have gained more trust from himself as the emperor, and he would have cared more seriously about state affairs. The emperor couldn't do without him, and when he returned home, he only cared about showing his power.

"Send an order to the Ministry of Rites to send a principal to Jiangling. While offering sacrifices to the father of Mr. Yu, ask him about his itinerary and tell Mr. Yu that he will return soon!"

Zhu Yijun said accordingly.

Zhang Jing hurriedly said that he obeyed the order.

After Zhu Yijun said that, he said, "Go pass Gao Gong to see me."

Zhu Yijun intends to ask Gao Gong some more national policies, and by the way, continue to put pressure on Zhang Juzheng, letting him know that his student may trust Gao Gong more at any time, and if he does not return to Beijing as soon as possible to continue to promote the New Deal.

However, Zhu Yijun's frequent summons to Gao Gong not only made Zhang Juzheng feel pressured, but also many ministers and ministers in the DPRK and China felt the pressure.

Because they all know that Gao Gong is more radical than Zhang Juzheng.

If the emperor trusted Gao Gong again, among other things, I'm afraid that more ministers' families would be punished by ransacking their homes.

After all, if Gao Gong becomes ruthless, he will care less about the friendship between scholars.

For Zhu Yijun, although Gao Gong is radical and intends to make the court reform more thoroughly, he also knows from Gao Gong what really needs to be solved in the future.

For example, the problem of unbalanced development between the north and the south, and the fact that the imperial court should continue to strengthen the collection of taxes from the south for the sake of the stability of the entire Ming Dynasty. Self-preservation.

"Your Majesty, most of the scholars in the world are from the south, and this phenomenon will become more and more serious;"

"However, the southerners must use etiquette and morality to demand that the imperial court implement a policy of light corvee and light taxation, and coerce the imperial court not to use troops wantonly. This case of seizing love can be seen;"

"The old minister believes that if His Majesty wants to use the imperial power to suppress the power of the scholars in the future, he should favor the northerners;"

"Because his uncle is also from the south and a student of Xu Huating, he still favors the southerners, so he only dared to clear his head and open the sea further, but did not dare to directly talk about reforming the imperial examination system and increasing the number of places in the north. , and even increase the number of places in the southwest, so that these places can have local scholars who can be listed in the court, so that your majesty can know that although the taxes in the south of the Yangtze River are heavy, the people in the north are poor, and the conflict between Han and Yi in the southwest is intensified.”

"I didn't dare to directly suggest that Your Majesty attack Nanzhi Haomin, but in fact, the Japanese riot in Shimiao was caused by the participation of Nanzhi Haomin in the first place!"

"Otherwise, it wouldn't be necessary to train common people as recruits to defeat the Japanese, because the Nanzhi Guards have already been infiltrated by them."

On this day, Gao Gong was chatting eloquently in front of Zhu Yijun, and Zhu Yijun said after hearing this: "I understand the meaning of the Taifu, but if the Taifu had not been replaced by the husband, would he have cleared the land?"

Gao Gong was stunned for a moment and said, "I won't!"

Zhu Yijun asked, "Why?"

Gao Gong replied: "If the subject is pure, the subject's clan will definitely not forgive the subject!"

"So Qing is still not as good as Mr."

Zhu Yijun said.

Gao Gong hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty! That's because I have no sons, but Zhang Juzheng has many sons!"

"He, Zhang Juzheng, doesn't need to look at the face of the clan, but I have to look at the face of the clan, otherwise, I will have no incense!"

Zhu Yijun knew that Gao Gong was indeed childless in history, only two stepson.

Moreover, in history, Gao Gong's two step-sons even later went to court for fighting over Gao Gong's family property, and even made trouble in the court.

"Hai Rui also has no children."

Zhu Yijun suddenly mentioned Hai Rui, and said: "And his mother is seriously ill. If that's the case, I can't take his love away. I have to let him return to his hometown Dingyou in the future, and by the way, he will return to his hometown to make arrangements for his stepson."

People in this era attach great importance to the continuation of incense.

The land economy makes it difficult for individuals not to care about the interests of the clan.

After Zhu Yijun said that, Gao Gong burst into tears because of this, bowed his hands to Zhu Yijun, choked up and said, "Your Majesty is the Son of Benevolence!"

Then, Gao Gong suddenly said: "However, Your Majesty should have children as soon as possible. If there are no children, some things will be difficult."

Zhu Yijun nodded.

In May of the sixth year of Wanli, Hai Rui asked for an order to return to his hometown because of his mother's death. Zhu Yijun did not refuse, and gave him sacrifice money and allowed him to return home.

After Hai Rui left, Zhu Yijun decreed that Chen Xing, who supported Zhang Juzheng's deprivation of love, should take up the position of Zuodu Yushi.

Zhu Yijun still reused Zhang Juzheng, which reassured the courtiers a lot, knowing that the emperor did not really trust Gao Gong from then on.

In fact, it's not that Zhu Yijun doesn't want to use Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng together, but it's really difficult to use the two together. In addition, Gao Gong himself confessed his weakness to the emperor.

The weakness is that he has no children.

As a childless person, in this era, if you want to do something against the interests of the landlord class in the world, you need more courage.

Just like Hai Rui in history, because he had no children, and his integrity was not tolerated by the clan, only a few colleagues buried him when he died.
