When the sedan chair finally fell, the curtain of the sedan chair opened, and the dizzy Wang Fulin came down from the sedan chair, but found that what he was in front of him was not the left gate of Chang'an where civil servants often walked, but the Grand Secretary Zhang's Mansion in Dashamao Hutong!

At such an extraordinary moment, Zhang Juzheng was not in the direct cabinet room in the palace city? How could he be at home?

Wang Fulin only felt a little confused. ●⌒,. The chief squad who came out of the door naturally would not explain, but instead politely led him in. Soon, Zhang Jingxiu continued.

The two are old acquaintances, but at this time, facing Wang Fulin's puzzled gaze, Zhang Jingxiu, who had a heavy face, just whispered: "Dad was sent back by Eunuch Feng, who was urgently sent back. He fainted in the cabinet room. Eunuch Feng also sent Doctor Zhu from the Imperial Hospital to take his pulse. I don't know why my father wanted to see you at this time."

Is Zhang Ju sick at this critical moment?

Faced with this unexpected news one by one, Wang Fulin couldn't help thinking quickly, thinking that even if Zhang Juzheng acted arbitrarily and could not tolerate objections after becoming the prime minister, he should not be so arrogant that he could not see the consequences clearly. As the prime minister, he drafted a self-criticism edict for an emperor who had not yet grown up. How serious is Zhang Juzheng himself knows? Perhaps this so-called fainting is just pretending to be for others to see. One is to temporarily delay the matter ordered by Empress Dowager Li, and the other is to catch out those political enemies who may covet the position of prime minister or hate him.

However, when he first stepped into Zhang Juzheng's dormitory, he saw Zhu Zongji's familiar face mixed with the Zhang brothers. He put away all the hipster and smiled but not serious manners on his usual face. His expression was so serious that he just nodded slightly when he saw him. His eyes were so deep that it was so clear that it was impossible to see the clues. Even though Wang Fulin had guessed before, he couldn't help but feel scared. When Zhang Jingxiu came to the bed and said a few words, he immediately took the Zhang brothers back down, and Zhu Zongji followed closely, and Wang Fulin was even more unable to figure it out.

Is Zhang Juzheng a real or a fake disease?

Just as Zhu Zongji passed by him, he could only hear an extremely low voice floating in his ears: "Be careful."

Even if it was just these simple three words, Wang Fulin was still shocked. This shows that Zhang Juzheng was really sick! But in his opinion, Zhang Juzheng was not like Tan Lun when he was a firefighter, so he died early. Now Zhang Juzheng is only in his early fifties. According to the average age of the cabinet masters of the Ming Dynasty, it is the time when he is young and strong. How could he be really sick at this time?

So, when the door was closed, he walked a few steps to the bed, and took a few more glances at Zhang Juzheng's face, who was not often seen on weekdays, when he looked at this, he found that the prime minister of the dynasty was not as good as Wang Daokun, who was the same year.

At least Wang Daokun doesn’t have that much white hair, his eyes are not so tired, he doesn’t have so many wrinkles on his forehead, and his spirit is not so depressed... But it was not the first time he met Zhang Juzheng, why haven’t he seen these before?

"I know what I asked you to do?" Zhang Juzheng asked straight in one fell swoop. Seeing Wang Fulin looking at him blankly, as if he was about to see a flower in his face, he couldn't help but beat the bed and shouted, "Last time in Wenhua Palace, you were talking to those scumbags. When the emperor asked you about your affairs in Guangdong, you just told me, why did you have to offer treasures in front of the emperor and take out the Pingko Zhi written by those instructors to promote it? Because of your offering of treasures, the emperor today made a big fight in Xiyuan and caused a big deal!"

Although the staff sent by Zhang Hong had already briefly told him about the incident, Zhang Juzheng was so angry that he was as soon as he came up. He said the same thing. Wang Fulin knew that there was no luck in the matter. I am afraid that the book he presented was really unrelated. He was not afraid that Zhang Juzheng would get angry, and he asked in a grievance and sincere manner what was going on.

In his opinion, Zhang Juzheng would definitely not tell the details of the situation in Xiyuan like the Zhang Hong Sect. But what he didn't expect was that Zhang Juzheng actually talked about the incident in Xiyuan without any hesitation, and even directly accused Sun Hai of bewitching the emperor from being close to men!

As for the only thing that had something to do with Ping Kou Zhi he offered, it was that Zhu Yijun was drunk and asked someone to sing the joke in Ping Kou Zhi. The castrator was charming because of his favor, so he was beaten hard by the little emperor.

Seeing Wang Fulin showing an extremely incredible expression, Zhang Juzheng said coldly: "Now, I know how stupid what you did at the beginning? The emperor is the king of a country. If there is nothing, there is nothing to do. If there is something, the person who presents the book will be the first to be! The Empress Dowager made great efforts to make a fuss about this matter, and almost all the people in the Qianqing Palace changed. Even the two eunuchs, Zhang Jing and Zhang Cheng, were sent to the Genggu Room. As for you, the Empress Dowager also scolded him in person. If I hadn't said that you were doing your best in the Censorate this month and the newcomer was well-trained, would you think you could still gain a foothold in the capital?"

Wang Fulin was indeed not very interested in being a censor, but his purpose in dealing with people and things has always been. He either did not do it. If he wanted to do it, he would have to be unable to be stinged. However, when Empress Dowager Li was inexplicably angry with him, Zhang Juzheng would come forward to maintain his work in the Censorate. Although he was always far away from the Chief Secretary at first, he was just for the future of the Wang family in Songmingshan, so he suggested not to put eggs in a basket, so he got closer, but after all, he was more utilitarian. But at this moment, of course, he was not touched or touched.

Even if Zhang Juzheng pleads with him just to protect him as his "personal person" or to show kindness to him, it is rare after all.

So, he had to show a little panic, but inquired: "The Queen Mother really blames the emperor for this?"

When he talked about this section, Zhang Juzheng fell silent. This was a secret that should not be told to anyone, so he naturally didn't want to mention it to Wang Fulin. However, just as he was about to change the topic, he didn't expect that Wang Fulin would be ahead.

"Sir, please forgive me for your own fault. Since you have defended me in front of the Empress Dowager, did you not protect the Emperor? The reason why the Empress Dowager learned about this must be that someone around the Emperor was the one who made a move to clean up the people around the Emperor, but when she saw that the Empress Dowager made a big move to clean up the people around the Emperor, she knew that it was not someone who was malicious to exclude his colleagues, but she did not want to be cleaned up together? The Emperor was a little lazy in his studies, but if it was just the Empress Dowager who blamed him, it was a matter between them, but the Empress Dowager was summoned by the Empress Dowager. If the Emperor hated the Emperor because all the people around him were rebelled, wouldn't that be wronged?"

"Stop!" Zhang Juzheng's face turned blue and he shouted sternly, "How can you say this?"

"It's okay for the Prime Minister to blame me for saying something wrong, but I really have to say this. Since ancient times, people who are in the Prime Minister's position are the most difficult, but in the past few years, the emperor has fully trusted the Prime Minister, and even directly named Brother Zhang as the second prize in Jinke. This naturally means that the emperor respects and trusts the Prime Minister. Today was just a small matter. As the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister, is also the emperor's teacher. If he is also on the side of the empress dowager and has no protection for the emperor, what does the emperor think?"

Not to mention such words, even if the closest is not able to say it, the legitimate children and nephews cannot say it, but Wang Fulin said it without hesitation. Zhang Ju became more angry and calm in his heart. After the previous incidents, he knew very well that Wang Fulin was not an impulsive and reckless person, and now he could advise him like this, and sincerity was rare. Thinking that this was also a person who was diligent in doing things rather than being diligent in firecrackers, he angrily blamed him a few words. Seeing that although Wang Fulin did not speak, his expression clearly revealed persistence on his face, he took off the mask of rage, but his face was indifferent.

“I know what I’m doing.”

Zhang Juzheng was indeed not so arrogant that he couldn't see the consequences clearly!

Wang Fulin took a light breath, but said the last sentence: "The Chief Auxiliary is clear to you. If a rift appears between the king and the minister, it will never be able to make up for it."

"You don't have to persuade me!" Although Zhang Juzheng had many close friends, many of them were senior officials like Shangshu Shushu, but after spending time in the officialdom, he would inevitably become an old man. So seeing that Wang Fulin ignored him and was just picking him out, he kept saying something about taboos, he finally couldn't help laughing. But the smile was not a relieved Zhan Yan, but a little self-deprecating and self-deprecating.

"The emperor is the king of a country. The empress dowager blames him for his wickedness, but he summoned me as the chief minister and made me blame him for his righteousness. Of course, it has a different meaning. If you don't understand, then you don't need to think about it." Although Empress Dowager Li is a woman, regardless of political affairs, to a certain extent, the mindset of checks and balances is not at all unknown. However, when he said this, Zhang Juzheng paused, and his tone suddenly became sharp, "But all the words you said today were rotten in my stomach. You will not be taken out anytime or anywhere in the future, otherwise I will throw you directly to the ends of the world!"

Wang Fulin thought about the crime of the imperial edict and could not mention it. After all, he didn't know how to explain the way he learned the news, so he couldn't help but open his mouth, but facing Zhang Juzheng's extremely sharp eyes, he had to shut up again, thinking that this time he would be afraid that Zhang Hong, the second-ranked figure in the Silijian, would be miserable. However, perhaps his unlucky look fell into Zhang Juzheng's eyes, or perhaps his words just touched him, but Zhang Juzheng said lightly: "I will write a letter and ask for a ten or eight-day vacation."

So, Zhang Juzheng's decree of guilt has to be delayed for at least ten days and eight days? No, as long as it is delayed for ten days and eight days, Empress Dowager Li will calm down. Even if she is not calm, at most she will ask the second assistant Lu Diaoyang to write the decree of guilt... No, Lu Diaoyang is not so trustworthy in front of the two palaces. This is not the turn of Lu Diaoyang! Ten days and eight days later, this matter will be ruined long ago!

Wang Fulin felt that the heavy stone pressing on his heart was moved away all of a sudden, and he quickly bowed and said, "The Chief Aunt was busy with all kinds of things and was too tired. Please take a good rest, so I will take my leave first."

But he turned around and walked out for a short while, and then suddenly realized that he had forgotten the most important question. He quickly turned around and said embarrassedly: "I just felt anxious and have not thanked the Prime Minister for his gratitude for mercy in front of the Empress Dowager..."

Zhang Juzheng smiled and then said lightly: "Just be your chief censor in Guangdong Dao. Let's see what else can the inspector censor do besides picking the bones in the eggs."

Until he left the dormitory and stood in the evening sunset, Wang Fulin raised his hand and wiped his forehead, and then he realized that he had already sweated heavily. The Zhang family brothers were all there in the yard, but no one came up to ask him what he had just said inside. Instead, he nodded and bowed, and soon he entered the dormitory one after another. At this time, he saw Zhu Zongji following the Zhang brothers, and suddenly pulled the imperial physician aside, but asked in a low voice: "What is the disease of the Chief Master?"

"What disease?" Zhu Zongji rolled his eyes and thought of the scene when Wang Fulin brought him to the Zhang family to guide Zhang Jingxiu. It was from that time that although he had been admitted to the Imperial Hospital, the illness of the emperor and empress in the palace could no longer be seen. The two biggest customers were the Grand Secretary Zhang's Mansion and the Wuqing Mansion. This time, when Zhang Juzheng was ill, Feng Bao, who knew this, sent him directly over here. At this moment, seeing Wang Fulin's face was annoyed and as if he was about to turn against him, he put away his inappropriate expression and said coldly, "What else can it be? Of course, it was caused by overwork. Do you think this person in it is a terrible person?"

Wang Fulin was stunned for a moment, but before he could refute, Zhu Zongji asked in a low voice: "Do you want to say that Yan Song is still in the cabinet when he is over 80 years old? That's because he has Yan Shifan, a son who can help, and he has a lot of bad legs. As for others, there are a few prime ministers who are hard-working like this one in the house, and he has to catch everything at once? If he just follows the old policy, it would be fine, but our prime minister has to make drastic changes to this and that, and he will be impeached and roasted on fire. If he hadn't been young, he would have been sick ten or eight times a year! When he meets people or goes out every day, he has powder on his face."

The most important thing is how Zhang Juzheng got to power, and how could he not beware of other people in the cabinet? To put it bluntly, if it weren’t for the cabinet, it would be impossible for Zhang Juzheng to take charge of the cabinet alone!

Seeing that Wang Fulin's face was stunned, Zhu Zongji thought that he was an imperial physician who cured diseases and saved people, and it was difficult to get involved in too many major affairs in the court, so he patted Wang Fulin on the shoulder and said, "Anyway, no one can persuade him to do this kind of character. By the way, we were all far away from you just talked in the room. As long as it was not smooth, no one could hear what was said in it. Don't worry."

Wang Fulin was immediately amazed and crying. Seeing Zhu Zongji stepping into the dormitory, he rubbed his temples and suddenly remembered what Zhang Juzheng said before, "It has another meaning, you don't understand." With a full of murmuring and suspicion, he came all the way to the gate of the Zhang Mansion, but found that it was still crowded here, but the sedan chairs carried by the two people when they were sent to him were gone. It was not clear whether it was prepared by the Censorate or something else. After thinking about it, he could only borrow a mount from the Zhang family's doorman, but did not go home, but went back to the Censorate directly.

At this critical moment, he decided to stay at the Censorate. After all, when there were fewer people in the Censorate at night, Zhang Hong was more likely to send someone to find him.

He did everything he could do, and even if he really made up something next, he could do nothing!

Wang Fulin took the initiative to be on duty. Even though the rotating censor of Guangdong Road tonight was actually Ma Chaoyang, there was no dispute in the end. As the sun set, most of the censors returned to their own houses, and the officials gradually dispersed. During the day, people came and went, and the Censorate, which often seemed very noisy, finally became silent.

It was rare to have no appetite. Wang Fulin sat in the straight room after eating a little big pot, absent-mindedly flipping through some old stalls of the archway warehouse. But when he heard the sound of the second update of the archway outside, he only heard a rustling sound outside, and someone came into the door immediately afterwards. When he recognized the person, he couldn't help but stand up.

ps: One update today, two updates tomorrow... (To be continued.)
