If Wang Fulin knew what Wang Jiguang was thinking at this moment, he would definitely curl his lips and say, "I am not a good person, so I am really that tall."

Everyone was drunk and I was awake alone, and the whole world was turbid and I was clear alone. If he had to learn from Zhao Yingyuan and Wang Yongji, he would definitely not do it. So Chen Xu called him and said that he wanted to go to the suburbs to welcome Zhang Juzheng, but of course he would not refuse. But that doesn't mean he had never thought about what kind of view would be like if such a grand pomp would fall in the eyes of Zhu Yijun, who is getting older this year.

Wouldn't the little emperor think that among the four of the six books, the Zuodu Censor, and the most important seven ministers, Zhang Juzheng occupied four seats, followed by a large number of vassals in the Kedao, and with other officials who were eager to follow, Zhang Juzheng was already covering the sky in the court!

Zhu Yijun is not the emperor who has mastered his skills. When he favors Yan Song, he can dominate the court, but once he loses trust, he can defeat the Yan Party, and his hands can destroy the Yan Party!

So, to put it more utilitarian, Wang Jiguang suddenly fell in front of him, Wang Fulin was busy helping him, and then sent someone to report to Chen Xu, and even got a lot of blood stains on his clothes, but he felt relieved and didn't have to make a bunch of them like those high-ranking officials.

He has always been very confused. People like Zhang Juzheng who should be quite wise can never get rid of the problem of showing off their high profile!

For example, the sixteen people in two bedrooms and one living room carried a large sedan chair, the team of bird gunner guards sent by Qi Jiguang, the prince went out of the city to welcome him, and Zhang Juzheng treated him with a gentle manner. Did he forget all the rules of the old system of Taizu when he saw the prince? Unfortunately, Zhang Juzheng kept saying that he wanted to restore the old system of Hongwu! One by one, it was taboo. Zhang Juzheng really didn't know? And today, the emperor and the two empress dowagers sent eunuchs to welcome him, which was foreseeable. You can't say hello earlier and let your confidants go to welcome him? At least don't go all of them, you will die if you have less pomp!

"Anyone who holds power for a long time will definitely expand without limit. Has almost no one ever been able to get rid of such a vicious circle?"

This was a thought that Wang Fulin had turned to his mind when he came to Zhang's mansion in Dashamao Hutong the next night. It was probably too late, and Zhang Juzheng had just arrived in the capital and had not returned to the cabinet to do business. In the past, the alley full of cars and sedans seemed very quiet at this time. He went to the door to post, and the doorman immediately said with a smile on his face: "The master has given me a long time ago. If Mr. Wang comes, please come in immediately, please."

After all that said, one of the gatekeepers smiled and invited Wang Fulin in, and the other ran in to report. So, Wang Fulin saw Zhang Sixiu coming out in a moment. The two of them were old acquaintances. After bowing to each other, Wang Fulin asked, "I was tripped by something yesterday and didn't have time to greet each other, so only Brother Zhang came back with Yuan Fu?"

"My mother, elder brother and younger brother are all at home to accompany my grandmother, and wait until the heat has subsided before going to Beijing." Zhang Sixiu took Wang Fulin to his father's study, and then lowered his voice and said, "Grandmother and grandfather have been married for many years. This sudden change of experience, so he naturally has not been in good health. My father invited my grandmother to come to Beijing. But my grandmother is old and has to prepare well, so he has already made a report before. Eunuch Wei of Wei, who had accompanied his elder brother to his hometown, has not come back in Jiangling, just to accompany his grandmother to Beijing."

Wang Fulin had visited Zhang Juzheng's mother in Jiangling Mansion. The old lady Zhao treated him kindly and pulled him around and chatted. After peeling the oranges and stuffing them into his hands, he insisted on eating them. These scenes were now swinging past him like a lantern. He was a little dazed and said with a smile: "In the fifth year of Longqing, when I went to Huguang, I went to Jiangling to pay homage to the old lady. At that time, the old lady kept me for dinner, but you couldn't come because of studying, so I and your brothers and I were not able to meet. At that time, the old lady told me a lot, but I didn't remember it very much afterwards. Now when you mentioned it, I actually remembered them all."

"Hey, is there such a relationship?" Zhang Sixiu and his brothers studied hard in the old Zhang family house in Jiangling at that time. He was really deafing the matter outside the window and only read the books of sages, so he was completely unaware of what guests were visiting at home. At this moment, he asked curiously, and hearing Wang Fulin talk about the details, he naturally felt mixed emotions. When he heard that Wang Fulin, who had only been in the academic year of the year, went to Huguang to find his father, and was involved in a conflict between the Hui Gang and the Dongting Merchants Gang, and had dealt with the famous Lei Jigu, he couldn't help laughing.

"Although I used to hear you talk about all kinds of things, I still feel a little regretful when I think that you came to my house and we were missing out."

"I'm lucky to meet you, but I don't know each other without fate. I'll make you meet you for a few years. Didn't you finally get to know each other? It's just a few years later."

Seeing that Zhang Juzheng's study was not far away, Wang Fulin smiled and said, "I will definitely come to see you again when the old lady arrives in Beijing tomorrow, but I don't know if she still remembers me."

"Grandma has the best memory, so I must remember it."

When Zhang Sixiu personally brought him into the study room, but he didn't follow him, Wang Fulin put away the relaxed gossip just now and walked straight to Zhang Juzheng on the other side of the desk. He didn't tell Zhang Sixiu just now that when he went to pay homage to Mrs. Zhao seven years ago, Mrs. Zhao certainly said that he hoped he would study hard and give Zhang Juzheng a hand in the future, but he didn't take it to heart at all. He even thought that Zhang Juzheng was good at using people, and when he hated you, he immediately abandoned him as a waste. But now seven years have passed, everyone regards him as Zhang Juzheng's confidant arm, and he has also corrected his original concept.

As long as you follow the pace of this prime minister and don’t deliberately attract people to be disgusted, Zhang Juzheng has always been willing to promote and reuse it, and he is also quite protective of his shortcomings!

"sit."

After three months of running back and forth, I sat in a sedan chair with two bedrooms and one living room, and a large number of soldiers guarding me. When I entered Jiangling City, there were thousands of people watching Zhang Lang in the alley. When I was burying my father, Huguang and civil and military officials almost all went to Taihui Mountain to leave these brilliant scenes. Zhang Juzheng was a son who lost his father. Even if he was not too sad and depressed, he still looked a lot thinner than when he left Beijing. At this moment, after waving his hand to signal Wang Fulin not to be too polite, he spoke concisely and authentically. Seeing the outside scholar's voice coming in, he immediately retreated silently, but he spoke again for a long time.

"I will negotiate with Feng Shuanglin about Gao Xinzheng, and so far. Shanxi officials in the court have quite a lot of people and status, among which Zhang Siwei is the leader. He made great efforts in Altan's tribute and Kaima City, so even though he knew that he had a close personal relationship with Gao Xinzheng, I still led him into the cabinet. Although you had personal grudges with him, the Wenhua Palace Court discussion did not abolish the public for personal gain, which was a farce. The letter sent to me was also the most fair statement and did not disappoint my value for you."

Wang Fulin knew that Zhang Juzheng was taking everyone's praise seriously, so he did not rush to say a bunch of humble words, but instead owed himself: "Yuan Fu was not here before, it was like the Dinghai Ding Hai needle being pulled away, so the demons danced around, and now when they return, they can be calm."

"Feng Shuanglin will send Xu Jue to Zhaoling to take care of him."

Wang Fulin had known how Zhang Jing and Zhang Cheng had separated, but this was the first time he knew Xu Jue's fate, and he was in a very strange mood. Who wouldn't know that Si Xiang's work was done by eunuchs? When was it the turn of Xu Jue, a Jinyiwei? Moreover, when he sent the person to that place, Feng Bao was not worried that Xu Jue would say something with his big mouth? But when he thought about it, he realized that Xu Jue would meet Zhang Jing directly there, and he couldn't help but doubt Feng Bao's malice. But no matter what, he had no room for doubt in this matter and did not speak out.

"Yesterday, your immediate boss, Chen Hou, came to see me and said that he wanted to keep you in the Censorate. Wang Shaofang also changed his original intention, saying that the Ministry of Personnel's Wenxuan Department seemed to be a fat person, and he had great power in charge of the selection, but it was not very suitable for you. They should not say this for no reason. I think it was your role in it? You refused to stay in the Censorate several times, but now why did you change your mind?"

Even when Chen Yu and Wang Zhuan met Zhang Juzheng one after another, they might not reveal that this was from Wang Fulin's confession, but who is Zhang Juzheng, how could he not realize the mystery of this?

Wang Fulin did not mean to hide it from Zhang Juzheng, and said frankly: "Yuan Fu is indeed as wise as a torch, and I have indeed changed my mind. But if it is from my own opinion, it is not bad to go to Wenxuan and be a Yuanwailang who can follow Wang Shaozai as long as he is willing to follow his superiors. It's just that I offended too many people. If there is any mistake in Quanxuan, someone will definitely attack me."

Speaking of this, Wang Fulin came to Zhang Juzheng's desk with a teacup in one hand, put down the teacup, opened the lid directly, but wrote words on the desk with dipped in tea. When he wrote that it was someone from the palace and instructed him to stay in the Censorate, he caught a glimpse from the corner of his eyes. Zhang Juzheng's face suddenly solidified, and he slowed down and wrote clearly the important dialogue between Tian Yi and himself.

It was not until he finally chose that Akita Yoshihide should represent the emperor, not Feng Bao that he covered the cup lid and said sincerely: "I also know that I have gone back on my word, but although I was a Jinshi in the second year of Wanli, I have been in the fourth year of Wanli. I have been an official for two years. If I suddenly moved to the fifth rank, how could others bear it? Since there are two considerate bosses like Chen Zongxian, Yuan Fu has always trusted me, and I will be able to eliminate some of the discussions in the Censorate for a few more years."

Zhang Juzheng never expected that the little emperor had just taken power but had already poached him. While shocked and angry, he felt a chill.

Thinking about the time when Emperor Jiajing succeeded the Grand Principal from the small clan and ascended the throne at a young age, Yang Tinghe held the cabinet in his hand, and there was Empress Dowager Zhang in the palace, which was suppressing the emperor inside and outside. Emperor Jiajing learned the emperor's mind without a teacher and used great etiquette to test the officials in the court. Sure enough, Zhang Cong and Gui E, two who supported him to pursue his biological father. Although he had to temporarily release the people under the pressure of the ministers led by Yang Tinghe, he immediately seized the opportunity to mention the matter again, and then broke through with the high-pressure policy of court sticking successfully, and finally expelled Yang Tinghe, making a gap in the Qingliu gentleman who abides by etiquette and law, and monopolized the power.

Although later generations have commented that Emperor Jiajing's scepter greatly hurts the vitality of Shilin, from the perspective of the emperor, what is Shilin? Anyone who constrains himself has to sweep the floor and go out!

In contrast, isn’t he, the chief assistant, also excludes dissidents in recent years?

Now the little emperor has taken power. Although what he originally did was the Prime Minister of the Cabinet and could not be said to be a return to power, if you think about it carefully, isn’t his current situation very similar to that of Yang Tinghe?

From beginning to end, Zhang Juzheng himself did not discover it, and he never considered that Wang Fulin had the possibility of fictitious words to deceive himself.

For some people, embracing Emperor Wanli's thighs may be a good choice, but Wang Fulin really thinks that Emperor Wanli's thighs are not so reliable. Moreover, he is a civil servant, and it is unrealistic to accumulate strength to fight the emperor. Therefore, before Zhang Juzheng came back, he began to think about it over and over again, and finally decided to take a risk and make such a clear decision to Zhang Juzheng.

This is not the best choice in strategy, because in a sense, being able to get along with each other is invincible, but from a tactical point of view, it is worth reminding Zhang Juzheng that when he is doing things in the future, he will have more room for his realization that the sword of Damocles is hanging on his head.

Moreover, in this way, Zhang Juzheng would trust him more. And since the early years, he had some messy thoughts.

In the Ming Dynasty, it was impossible for civil servants to usurp the throne, but other things may not be impossible, but the difficulty was absolutely super high. But compared to forcibly reversing the three views of Emperor Wanli and some gentlemen in the Qingli River, the difficulty was probably even lower.

"I see."

Zhang Juzheng took a breath and said these four words in his mouth, but he picked up a piece of paper and wiped off all the water stains on the table. He also dipped his fingers into tea and started writing quickly on the table.

Wang Fulin watched from the side and saw that Zhang Juzheng was instructing him to agree no matter how Tian Yi ordered, and discussed with him later. Zhang Juzheng would only take it as if he didn't know this. He would neither reveal Tian Yi's abnormal movement to Feng Bao nor show any abnormality in front of the little emperor. He nodded calmly, and then said with a pun: "I can have today, and I am always the one who is in charge of the censor, so I should recommend the wise and impeach the little girl."

"I read you right." Zhang Juzheng felt a lot of emotion while saying this.

During the day today, he went to the palace to meet the emperor. Zhu Yijun met him in the west room of Wenhua Palace. The king and his ministers asked and answered each other. The topics were mostly about his experiences in Huguang, including Jiahe, the people, and border affairs. When he was resigning, it was the same as before. Zhu Yijun also rewarded silver coins, mutton, and imperial wine. This made Zhang Hong, the eunuch of the Silijian, personally sent him to Ciqing Palace and Cining Palace to pay tribute to the two palaces. The Queen Mother Rensheng, said little, and after condolences, he let him leave. However, Empress Dowager Li, Cisheng, talked a lot, and most of them were criticized without mercy on Zhu Yijun.

He didn't think anything at that time, but now thinking about it, Empress Dowager Li, the Yan mother, is certainly a bit too strict, but is he, a strict teacher, also very annoying?

If it were another young talent, as long as he thought about his age between the prime minister and the little emperor, he would stand on the emperor's side without hesitation, and would even break this layer of window paper to remind him.

When he was rewarding Wang Fulin, he suddenly thought about the possibility of Wang Fulin's alarmist statement. But then he thought about it, anyone has a purpose in doing anything. What benefits can Wang Fulin make up this?

To encourage him to usurp the throne? A joke, when Emperor Chengzu usurped the throne as the fourth son of Taizu, he was criticized by thousands of people, not to mention that he was a civil servant. The reason why Yang Jian and Zhao Kuangyin were able to successfully usurp the throne was because the world had not been unified at that time, and with foreign enemies on his side, internal conflicts would be easily suppressed. Otherwise, wouldn’t you see Wang Mang’s fate?

As for the fact that he wanted to use this to invite Wang Fulin to gain his trust, he was not inferior to those senior officials such as Secretariats, but no matter what, Zhang Juzheng could not promote him to a high position all at once.

Since the others are all very weak, he can only believe that the possibility of what Wang Fulin said is very high!

After the official talk, Wang Fulin was lingering in Zhang Juzheng's study for a long time. After hearing Zhang Juzheng talk about government orders such as measuring land and mu, he finally said goodbye. When he walked out of the study, he saw that it was already dark. The yard in front of him was no longer the place where he and Wang Jiguang climbed over the wall last time. Zhang Juzheng followed his advice and changed the location of the study.

Zhang Sixiu did not wait outside. There was no one to serve the huge yard. He looked up at the sky, and there were no moonlight and stars, but there were still heavy dark clouds.

Although Zhang Juzheng is back, he is still far from dawn!
