Chapter 591 Ge Lao Hai Rui Returns Home, I Want to Praise Your Majesty! (plus more)

The next day.

It happened to be September 18, 27th year of Wanli.

The bright sun hangs high in the autumn sky, and the light penetrates the red leaves, embellishing the fallen yellow leaves with Lingling golden beads.

Hai Rui was lying on the couch by the window, bathing in the sunshine. Not long after, he reached out and picked up a yellow leaf that fell on his body. He then squinted at Gao Yang and looked at the lines on it, as if he could see the road back to Qiongzhou. And he couldn't help saying to Haiyou: "Go and ask your brother Zhongshi, how long before we leave."

"He said he would leave after noon in the afternoon, when the weather would be warmer."

"In addition, he said that although his father has long stopped letting the officials come and send them, he still has to give the officials a time to deliver the post."

Haiyou replied.

Hai Rui didn't answer after hearing this, he just closed his eyes and rested his mind.

Haiyou picked up a bowl of porridge at this moment: "Father, let's eat something."

"Don't eat!"

Hai Rui replied.

Haiyou held up the sweet-scented osmanthus cake again: "What about the sweet-scented osmanthus cake given by the empress?"

After hearing this, Hai Rui let out a long sigh: "You have to eat! Otherwise, it would be disrespectful."

Hai Rui opened his eyes as he spoke, stretched out his hand, took the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and even though he really had no appetite, he took it to his mouth and bit it forcefully.

Food is the foundation of health.

After forcefully eating something, Hai Rui regained some strength. When he left the mansion, he offered to get out of the sedan chair and take a walk to see the place where he used to work.

Hai Rui walked with his hand on the python-headed crutch given by Yu, and watched at the same time.

With his white hair messed up by the wind, he stood there in a short while and turned to look at the majestic Forbidden City.

The Forbidden City under the blue sky is very spectacular, overlooking all living beings.

Sudden.

Hai Rui bowed to the Forbidden City.

After a difficult bow, Hai Rui murmured: "Your Majesty, I'm back!"

After saying that, Hai Rui took the initiative to go back to the sedan, and then told Hai You in the sedan: "Pen the ink, I want to write!"

Haiyou hurriedly asked, "What word does father want to write?"

Hai Rui said: "Write about His Majesty's great achievements, and write about how much Your Majesty has protected all people in my heart, Hai Rui!"

"Everyone knows that I, Hai Gangfeng, dare to scold the emperor, but they don't know that I, Hai Rui, also dare to praise the emperor!"

"What's more, now that I am the king and father closest to my ideal, how can I not praise him?"

"It's just that I'm afraid that in the future, due to the chaos of people's hearts, the world will continue to degenerate, so future generations will still make many slanderous remarks about him. And since I, Hai Rui, am fortunate enough to have gained a great reputation, then the emperor whom I, Hai Rui, praise, Future generations can't believe the words of those who have ulterior motives to destroy my pilgrimage, right?"

Hai Rui said, "While I can still move, I can write as much as I can. Then you have to spend all my savings to find a famous artist to publish it!"

"Don't feel sorry for the money. If it wasn't for your majesty who couldn't bear the fact that a minister like your father can't get rich because of his innocence, so that few people in the world would be willing to follow your father's example as an official, your current life wouldn't be so good. It can be said that your father His savings belonged to His Majesty, and now it should be used to repay the emperor's kindness."

"Yes! Son remembers!"

Not long after Hai Rui spoke here, the sedan chair was slowly carried away to the south.

This is the end.

Taifu, the crown prince of Ming Dynasty, and Hai Rui, a scholar of Wenyuange University, resigned and left the capital.

Zhu Yijun still sent eunuchs, medical officers and Jin Yiwei to escort them.

And worth mentioning.

Zhou Yong and Yin Zhengmao, who fainted on the ground after learning about the military victory of the Ming Dynasty against Lu Song, soon woke up in the official residence.

The first to wake up was Yin Zhengmao.

As soon as Yin Zhengmao woke up, seeing that he was already at his home, and thinking about conquering Lu Song, he said again very dejectedly: "This is a terrible loss!"

But just as Yin Zhengmao said this, seeing that there was an extra official beside him, he couldn't help feeling tense for a moment: "Who are you and why are you here?"

The subordinate officer hurriedly bowed his hands and said, "My subordinate is Xue Limu, Da Sima's medical officer. I have been ordered to be responsible for Da Sima's health."

"Doctor?"

"When did His Majesty establish this system?"

Yin Zhengmao muttered a few words to himself, then suddenly choked up and said:

"The emperor's grace is mighty, the emperor's grace is mighty!"

Then, Yin Zhengmao said: "I just said that the old party has suffered miserably from now on. Now it seems that your majesty treats me and other ministers so favorably, the old party will only suffer even more miserably in the future!"

As he spoke, Yin Zhengmao asked Xue Limu confirmingly: "Doctor Xue, do you think so?"

"Da Sima said yes, that's it!"

Xue Limu replied at this time.

Yin Zhengmao smiled awkwardly.

And Zhou Yong also came to his senses, crying loudly on the spot:

"My subscription coupon!"

Then, Zhou Yong also found out that the emperor had appointed him a medical officer. While feeling grateful for the emperor's kindness, Zhou Yong immediately forced a smile and said, "Now, my subscription coupons will go up!"

"Since it will rise sharply, why are you crying?"

At this time, Zhou Yong's medical officer couldn't help but ask more questions.

Zhou Yongze said: "Of course I am crying with joy, crying with joy!"

However, it was because Zhou Yong and Yin Zhengmao didn't stick to their positions. After seeing the subscription tickets continue to plummet, they also asked their family members to secretly sell the subscription tickets, so they couldn't accept this result for a while.

You know, Yin Zhengmao has already persuaded the emperor to prepare for the first defeat in the battle, and then quickly prepare for the second conquest of Luzon. He bought the bottom in advance, and then after his second victory in the Battle of Luzon, he made a lot of money.

But the current result is that the first conquest of Luzon was a great victory.

Yin Zhengmao secretly hated the strength of the old party in his heart, it didn't seem to have much influence on the outcome of the war, and he also knew that although he refused to admit that he fainted in front of the imperial court because he participated in the sale of subscription tickets, the emperor must have guessed it , he felt that he had no face to stand in the court anymore, so he wrote a letter of resignation and submitted it the next day.

Like Yin Zhengmao, Zhou Yong also wrote his resignation letter and submitted it the next day.

Zhu Yijun had already heard about their situation after waking up from the factory guard and the medical officer, and knowing that they were ashamed of themselves, he also approved their resignation.

And Zhou Yong and Yin Zhengmao also moved out of the official residence and left the capital on the same day as Hai Rui.

The two of them also saw Hai Rui stop and look north at the Forbidden City.

For a moment, Yin Zhengmao couldn't help but said to Zhou Yong with a guilty look on his face:

"Hai Gangfeng is worthy of His Majesty, we are sorry!"

Zhou Yong nodded, feeling sad, and then returned to the sedan.

Yin Zhengmao also walked back.

"master!"

"What's the matter with you, sir?"

Suddenly, shouts came from Zhou Yong's sedan chair.

Yin Zhengmao hurriedly got off the sedan chair and asked, "What happened to Privy Zhou?"

At this time, the servant of the Zhou family replied: "Our master committed suicide by taking poison!"
