Purple Thorn City Dongwenyuan Pavilion, the building where the ministers of the cabinet dealt with the state affairs of the outer court, has become the most unremarkable house in the Forbidden City since Zhang Juzheng served as the first assistant, the most prominent and dazzling era of the Ming Dynasty .

On the surface, Daming’s routine government procedures have not changed, but the decision-making power has shifted.

The normal process is to write memorials by ministers, draft memorials by ministers, and approve reds by the emperor. The powers are scattered, but for a long time, the Emperor Wanli was extremely afraid of him as Teacher. What did Zhang Juzheng say and what memorials? Hardly dared to object.

The redemption was all done under the guidance of Feng Bao. Feng Bao is Zhang Juzheng’s strongest ally.

This also led to the fact that from the early years of Wanli to the present, the minister’s memorial and the cabinet’s ticket were proposed to be approved by the emperor, and Zhang Juzheng could make a round.

It is really not too exaggerated to say that he regarded the emperor as a puppet.

In the Wenhua Palace at this moment, there are three cabinet ministers, Zhang Ju is the well-deserved boss, and Zhang Siwei is an echo worm. Shen Shixing entered the cabinet soon, and he has almost no right to speak and make decisions.

Lv Tiaoyang and Ma Ziqiang died of illness in the first year of Wanli.

At the moment, in the Forbidden City, aside from internal court affairs, Zhang Juzheng is the most beautiful Senior.

Even if the 55-year-old Zhang Juzheng is already full of white hair, describing it as withered, he still holds the greatest power of the Ming Empire.

Today, since arriving in the cabinet at about noon, Zhang Shoufu has been silent for a long time since he got a memorial from the generals and ministers of the outer court. He has not gone to work for a long time, as if he had been sitting in a daze.

The people in Wenhua Dianshe went back and forth to add tea to Zhang Yuanfu several times, replaced a few cups of herbal tea, and realized that Zhang Juzheng was wrong, then left Zhang Juzheng’s office and reported the abnormality to Zhang Siwei Two cabinet ministers and Shen Shixing.

“Could Yuanfu watch the movie in that different population last night, but hasn’t regained his energy yet?” Shen Shixing pondered for a moment before he said in surprise.

In the past, Zhang Juzheng was a workaholic. If he were not a workaholic, he would not be overworked in his post like Zhuge Liang in history.

Like today, after arriving before lunch, staying in a daze until so long after dinner, ignoring political affairs? It is a strange thing that has never happened before.

Shen Shixing is 45 years old this year. He was promoted from Jinshi to Cabinet Minister in just 16 years after he was ranked in the imperial examination. He was promoted at the speed of light. At this moment, the old man Shen is also the youngest and most energetic in the cabinet. The cabinet minister.

Zhang Siwei is not too old, one year younger than Zhang Juzheng, 54 this year, but looking at his complexion, he is not very healthy. There is a lot of depression between his eyebrows. In fact, this is a firm anti The reformist, Zhang Juzheng launched various counter-reform measures as soon as he died, and the Imperial court was used on a large scale to clean up Zhang Juzheng’s reform achievements.

From this point, we know why Zhang Siwei’s complexion is bad.

As the second assistant of the Ming Dynasty, speaking of which is the No. 2 leader of the outer court, but in fact he is an unrighteous respondent. After many years of this, his anger is almost exploded.

With Shen Shixing’s words, Zhang Siwei unperturbed said, “Ru Mo, Yuan Fu is not in good health, you should go and see?”

Shen Shixing still thinks about it. nodded walked to Zhang Juzheng’s office, waited into the study room with the door open, and saw that Zhang Juzheng was still holding a memorial in a daze, or in other words, he was wandering away.

Shen Shixing was lightly coughed, “Yuanfu, Yuanfu?”

The two lightly said sounds finally awakened Zhang Juzheng, and the powerful boss recovered his agility and emotion. The complicated said with a smile, “It’s Rumo, I’m fine.”

After a pause, he said with a subtle smile, “This is a memorial sent by Qi Shaobao and Qi Yuanjing from Jizhou. I wrote to the Queen Mother and urged the Queen Mother to abolish Your Majesty’s kneeling punishment, so as not to kneel for a long time and hurt Your Majesty’s dragon.”

“Secondly, I should return to Your Majesty, although It can’t be handed over all at once, but you can…recommend Your Majesty’s most admired foreign ministers, such as Hai Rui Haigangfeng as the official secretary.”

“What do you think of Rumo?”

Following Zhang Juzheng’s words, Shen Shixing was instantly confused and his brain exploded.

After a few breaths in disbelief, he said with difficulty, “Jizhou Qi Yuanjing?”

Zhang Ju is the teacher in the examination room of Shen Shixing. He can only take 16 years. From being promoted to becoming a cabinet minister, Zhang Juzheng’s strong recommendation and promotion is indispensable, and he is definitely Zhang’s capable pupil.

Of course, you know what Qi Jiguang stands for with such an identity. That is Zhang Juzheng’s most powerful representative for revitalizing the Daming military affairs.

Qi Jiguang suddenly booked and asked Zhang Yuanfu to return to Your Majesty? This is almost like your most trusted and proud discipline, stabbing you backhand.

No wonder Zhang Juzheng has been in a daze since he watched this memorial before lunch, and was in a daze for so long.

For a while, Shen Shixing was shocked and speechless, not knowing what to say, especially when I remembered that Qi Jiguang recommended Haigangfeng to serve as the minister of rituals? If this news is to be spread, it will definitely cause the ruling and opposition parties to boil.

Hairui’s formidable power is not an ordinary horror. In 1570, in the third year of Longqing, the Emperor Longqing appointed Hai Rui as the prefect of Yingtian. Its jurisdiction includes ten prefectures such as Yingtian, Suzhou, Changzhou, Huizhou, and Guangdezhou. As the land of fish and rice in Jiangnan, the news spread that most of the corrupt officials in that area voluntarily resigned.

The distinguished dignitaries listened to the news and automatically changed the red-painted door to black. The officials knew that Hai Rui was coming, and they automatically reduced the number of chariots and horses during the trip. Vast becomes simple and low-key.

Hai Rui implemented various government orders, and officials feared that they did not dare to make mistakes. Local tycoons even moved their families to escape.

This is Haigang Peak! !

Such a role to be a minister of etiquette? You are making trouble. If you want the news to spread, it is definitely the “ridiculous” recommendation that the officials of the dynasty go to impeach you.

Hai Rui, a tycoon, experienced the four dynasties of Zhengde, Jiajing, Longqing, and Wanli. Except for Zhengde Nian who never set foot in officialdom, there are three other dynasties. All three Ming emperors can be called to this The senses are complex.

For example, Emperor Jiajing once said that this person can be compared with Bigan, but I am not the King of Shang Zhou.

Emperor Long Qing has always admired and supported Hai Rui, and couldn’t stand the Imperial court. There were too many impeachment of Hai Rui by civil and military…The emperor couldn’t bear the pressure.

The young emperor Zhu Yijun has always admired the name of Haigang Peak, and is fascinated.

I really want Hai Rui to be the official book, Shen Shixing himself is somewhat guilty, very timid, let alone Shen Shixing, at this time Zhang Juzheng estimated that his heart is also guilty, although he is in the national justice , The reform presided over made great changes to the Ming Dynasty.

In terms of personal style, it is absolutely violent when Hai Rui catches him.

For a while, Shen Shixing was surprised and said, “Qi Yuanjing is going to betray her teacher and plan to flatter Your Majesty and imitate Jiang Bin’s thing?”

Zhang Juzheng was surprised,” As far as I know Qi Yuanjing is not such a person, so I am curious, what happened in the middle?”

Before Qi Jiguang met Zhang Juzheng, although he wanted to kill the Japanese pirates, how can He is just a small farming officer, intentional but powerless.

It was recommended by Zhang Juzheng 27 years ago that he became the general who ruled the 25th guard of the third camp, trained to kill the enemy, and fought all the way for nearly 30 years. How could Zhang Juzheng not understand him?
