Chapter 247 Zhang Juzheng's Exhortation to Wanli

Zhang Juzheng suddenly seemed to have strength, and he straightened up, tremblingly about to get out of bed and salute.

"No gift sir!"

Zhu Yijun hurried over and supported him personally.

Seeing under the dim light, Zhang Ju's face was sallow, skinny, with protruding eyes, and his mouth was hard to wrap his teeth. For a moment, Zhu Yijun felt as if his heart had been caught, and said in a heavy tone: "Unexpectedly, Mr. It's so sick!"

Zhang Juzheng said: "I blame myself, it was too late to take care of myself, and I am sorry for your majesty, for not giving your majesty enough time to adapt to the personal administration."

Zhu Yijun didn't know what to say for a moment, and wanted to say that Zhang Juzheng should retire early, but felt that Zhang Juzheng would be disappointed if he said this, so he just looked at the table and couldn't help asking: "Mr. Why are you still working on copywriting and not taking a serious rest?"

Seeing that Zhu Yijun did not behave like a woman, Zhang Juzheng only asked himself why he still wrote things when he said what should be said, and said with a relieved smile:

"Your Majesty's forgiveness!"

"It's not that I don't want to rest, it's that this new way of governing the country needs to be written as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a failure to His Majesty and the country."

Zhu Yijun nodded after hearing this, and said nothing more.

Zhang Juzheng took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, relying on the theory of the Gongyang School, he re-drafted the view of Confucian classics that seek truth from facts and be practical in the world, and believes that in terms of knowledge and action, we should pay equal attention to knowing and doing, and we should not think that we can know by looking at the heart." Act as one, but don't learn anymore; don't know what to do first, and don't use the monarch and ministers for a while to abolish the common sense of Yi and Xia in ancient and modern times, but only know the difference between monarch and minister, and don't know the difference between Hua and Yi, and then recognize the thief as your father! It was only a little bit finished, so there should be no delay."

Zhu Yijun was very familiar with what Zhang Juzheng said, and knew that the proposition he had drawn up was similar to the thoughts that Wang Fuzhi concluded after the death of the Ming Dynasty after many years of bitter experience because of the death of the country and nation by a foreign race.

And Wang Fuzhi's thought laid the foundation for later generations to end the century-old misfortune, and it can be regarded as the prerequisite for the rebirth of an ancient civilization.

After all, according to the experience of later generations, China has its own civilization reality, and it cannot be reborn simply by absorbing foreign culture.

What Zhu Yijun asked Zhang Juzheng to do was to make Daming nirvana as soon as possible, but he asked himself that his foundation in Confucian classics was not enough, so he left this matter to someone who was a child prodigy since he was a child, was born in the Imperial Academy, was the top elite of this era, and paid more attention to seeking the country. Zhang Juzheng came to do it.

"Mr. hard work."

Zhu Yijun just said this at this time, and then took Zhu Ben out of his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Juzheng:

"It's just that sir, rest in the future. I have approved your return to your hometown, and will order someone to carry you back, and send troops to escort you, so that you can return home safely."

"Mister has protected Daming all his life, so it's time to rest!"

At this moment, Li Shizhen couldn't help laughing from the sidelines, thinking: "Here comes the good medicine!"

Zhang Juzheng took Zhu Ben with trembling hands in a hurry, mumbled his mouth, forced himself to salute Zhu Yijun, and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Don't give a big gift again."

Then, Zhang Juzheng lay down on the collapsed bed under Zhu Yijun's support, panting heavily, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty said that I have protected Daming all his life, it really makes me ashamed!"

"In my opinion, the only one who can protect Daming is His Majesty, and the one who has been protecting Daming can only be Your Majesty!"

"The prosperity of the world today is due to His Majesty's willingness to govern and love the people, not because of his ministers."

Zhang Juzheng was a little out of breath when he said this, and paused for a while: "It's not because the ministers are capable, the world is full of people who are more capable than the ministers, and the ministers are able to assist His Majesty to revive the situation today, all because of His Majesty's perseverance also!"

"Sir, you don't need to talk too much, you should rest."

Zhu Yijun hurriedly said something at this time, and said: "I just came to see you, and I will leave after watching."

Zhang Juzheng said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about your minister being too tired to return home. The way of heaven is for people. When you live, you live; when you die, you die. Otherwise, if I go to the underworld, I will have to change its system!"

Zhu Yijun could only nod his head and let Zhang Juzheng continue.

Zhang Juzheng seemed to have opened up the chatter box, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty's understanding of the way of governing the country is like being taught by heaven. Even if you are not an emperor, you are not willing to be an inferior person. To be an emperor is either a blessing for the country. Either it is a disaster for the country, but fortunately, His Majesty is very wise in employing people and accepting people's words well, so there is no doubt that luck outweighs disaster, and it has been accumulated for many years, and it is regarded as a great cause!"

"I still have the same sentence, Your Majesty is the Lord of the world, and his words and deeds can bless the world or cause disaster to the world;"

"I beg your majesty to continue to take the life of the country and the common people into consideration, and still be cautious in dealing with things; in this way, the world will be protected by your majesty, and only your majesty can protect the emperor! It cannot be replaced by a good assistant and famous general."

"There is no shortage of virtuous ministers and famous generals at any time in the world, but it is rare for Yao and Shun to meet."

"So, if you encounter setbacks in the future, Your Majesty, please don't act like the day before or get discouraged. Both are abandoning the world."

"But if you have to choose between the two, your majesty should be a man, not a coward. Just like before, the heroic spirit of a young man should not be discarded. If your majesty loses his spirit, Daming will also lose his spirit..."

Zhu Yijun didn't know when he left Zhang's mansion, nor did he know how much Zhang Juzheng said, but the sentence that impressed him most was that Daming could only rely on him as the emperor to protect him.

What you say is what you say, Your Majesty has grown up, don't expect a virtuous minister to take the burden for you, you have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the master of the world yourself, and the virtuous minister is just an assistant.

Three days later, Zhang Juzheng left the mansion in a sedan chair, ready to return home.

Before moving out of the official residence, he looked back at the Forbidden City for a long time before he was carried out of the city.

However, as soon as Zhang Juzheng arrived at the canal outside the city, Zhang Jing waited here with a team of Jinyiwei.

"Sir, Zhang Jing of our family has been ordered to wait here. His Majesty ordered: Mr. Zhang, the Grand Master, does not need to get out of the sedan chair. He only needs to let people raise the curtain to listen to our family."

Zhang Jing came over at this time and said with a bow and a smile.

Zhang Juzheng saw Zhang Jing leading a large group of guards in Jinyi, and suddenly asked a little disappointed: "Your Majesty has changed his mind again, and you don't want me to return home?"

"Mr. misunderstood."

Zhang Jing smiled and said something, then turned around and ordered: "Bring it up!"

Not long after, three men were brought over.

One was obviously a monk, still wearing monk robes.

One person was wearing a square scarf, and he looked like a student.

The other person is Zhou Hua, a housekeeper and servant who is housekeeper at Zhang Juzheng's hometown in Jiangling, Huguang.

"So that Mr. Zhang, the grand master, knows that these three people are the chief culprits for participating in the digging of your father's grave."

"Among them, your family slave Zhou Hua led the way. He received a heavy bribe from the monk Mingzhen, so he did such things against the Lord!"

"But this was the monk Mingzhen's idea. Naturally, he did this because he was dissatisfied with the government that you presided over to clean up his temple."

"As for the student member Wang Rugong, he went straight from the south to Huguang, and he is a person who specially distributes money to organize people to criticize you. The tabloid posts in Huguang are basically printed with money, and he also spent money to find someone to write."

"These people hide very deeply, but the Skynet is extensive and not leaking. No matter how hard they hide, they will eventually show their feet."

"Zhou Hua, the house slave of your family, finally couldn't hold back after a year. He went to hire a character as a foreign room, and also bought a mansion to make it luxurious. A big gamble directly won or lost a thousand taels of silver. This is what happened. It aroused our Jin Yiwei's suspicion, so we set our eyes on him and dug out the person behind him."

"Our family told the sir according to the order, and His Majesty also ordered the gentleman to make up his own mind, determined to suggest how the court should deal with these three people."

As Zhang Jing said, he handed over Zhou Hua's deed for accepting heavy bribes from monk Mingzhen and Wang Rugong's own handwritten post as evidence: "This is evidence, Mr. Zhang, the Grand Master, please read it."

Zhang Jingxiu took it, and hurriedly handed it to Zhang Juzheng: "Father!"

Zhang Juzheng didn't answer, but raised his eyes slightly to look at Zhou Hua, the slave.

"Master, the younger one is wrong, and the younger one is only fascinated by ghosts for a while, obsessed by ghosts!"

Zhou Hua begged at this moment.
