Chapter 1609 I actually don¡¯t want to leave

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the mourning hall in the front yard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, a large word "Dian" is particularly eye-catching.

    There is an offering table in front of the mourning hall, with three animal sacrifices placed on it and incense and candles shining high.  There is also a pure gold butter lamp.

    Densely packed mourning banners hang on both sides of the mourning hall, signed by either Dajiu Qing or the Duke of the State.  There are only two exceptions. One was a gift from the Empress Dowager's father, Marquis Wuqing Li Wei, and his family; the other was a gift from Zhao Liben and Zhao Shouzheng and their sons.  It was also placed in the hall in a grand manner.

    Eunuch Feng read out the imperial edict to express his condolences to Liu, and also presented him with a condolence curtain - which he wrote in his own handwriting, "The country mourns its senior citizens, and their great virtues will always be remembered." Then he knelt respectfully in front of the altar table, kowtowed to the old emperor and cried in mourning.

    "Hurry and help Mr. Shuanglin come inside to serve tea." Zhang Juzheng hissed to Si Xiu. The two men had white silk ribbons tied on their heads, and their voices were already splitting from tears.

    After a distinguished guest comes to express condolences, you cannot let them leave directly. You must go inside to serve tea, which is considered polite.

    Zhang Juzheng also went inside to talk with the support of You Qi.

    Li Yihe, Zeng Shengwu, and Wang Zhuan looked at each other, and the former also moved his fat body to follow.

    After the guests of honor were seated, Feng Bao couldn't wait to ask Zhang Juzheng: "Taiyue has also heard the edict, how do you want me to get back to the empress and the emperor?"

    "Sigh" It had only been half a day, but Zhang Juzheng already looked haggard, and his beard, which had never been messy at all, was also messy.  He sighed and said: "Yongting, I understand the thoughts of you, the Empress Dowager, and the Emperor. How can Bu Gu feel comfortable going down this stall? But the first assistant is the teacher of all officials, and all officials are the teachers of the common people. I  If you fail to fulfill your responsibilities to your late father, not only will you not be able to pass your own test, you will also not be able to face the officials and the people of the world."

    "Isn't there a precedent?" Feng Bao then brought out the one he found out at the last minute.  "Back then Yang Rong, Jin Youzi, Yang Pu, Wang Wen, Li Xian"

    "Yes, academicians have a tradition of reviving love. The most recent one is Liu Mianhua, who escaped from Ding You twice." Li Yihe interjected: "But since Yang Tinghe, the trend has changed."

    "Oh? Really?" Feng Bao couldn't help but feel ashamed. He didn't expect this to happen.

    "It's like this." Zhang Juzheng hissed with a gloomy look: "In the tenth year of Zhengde, Duke Yang Wenzhong went to the funeral as a beggar for his father's death. At the beginning of Emperor Wu Zong's time, he refused, but he allowed it after three invitations. After he revived it, he made three sparse remarks, and then he allowed it.  The end of a minister¡¯s success, the death of his parents, is the beginning of peace in the court"

    Although Emperor Zhengde is absurd, he is very sober and knows that the country cannot do without Yang Tinghe, so he does not allow his father Ding to worry.  After Yang Tinghe repeatedly insisted, he reluctantly agreed.  Soon he wanted to retaliate early, but Lao Yang probably wanted to live a few more years and did not want to continue to be angry with Zhengde, so he refused to retaliate early.  He stayed at home for twenty-seven months before returning to Beijing at Zhengde's urging.

    At that time, the old Yang family had the right to speak in public opinion. As a result, a group of young officials headed by his son promoted him as a moral model who did not love power and had both loyalty and filial piety, and a model of a bachelor!

    Liu Mianhua, who had already retired from office, was widely regarded as a negative example, and became a shameless example of a man who clung to power.

    In addition, starting from Jiajing, the tendency of moralizing political issues became more and more serious.  The privilege of cabinet bachelors to recover from love has disappeared since Yang Tinghe.

    Feng Bao only knew one thing but not the other. Seeing that he was self-defeating, he couldn't help but apologize in a low voice: "It's because our family is too smart."

    Zhang Juzheng waved his hand and said, "You also have good intentions."

    Li Yihe also echoed: "That's right, it's nothing. It doesn't make sense for the emperor not to comfort Mr. Zhengde. Didn't Mr. Zhengde also comfort Yang Tinghe three times?"

    As he spoke, he took a deep look at Zhang Juzheng and said, "The key is what my husband thinks."

    In fact, before several of their Zhang Dang confidants came, they had already discussed how to deal with this sudden and severe situation.  In the end, it was agreed that we should try to ask Mr. Zhang to win the favor, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

    ¡°But they just found out that their father was gone, so they didn¡¯t have the nerve to say these words yet.  Just as Feng Bao got up, Li Yihe followed decisively.

    In fact, Zhang Juzheng also calmed down now.  How could he not remain calm in the face of the biggest crisis in his official career?

    Of course he wants to be like Yang Tinghe and Ding You will come back after twenty-seven months.  But this is not the Zhengde period. At that time, the ministers were united in fighting against the emperor and could not threaten Lao Yang's existence.  He can write at home with peace of mind, and he doesn't have to worry about the mountains and rivers changing color when he comes back, and things and people changing.

    But when is this happening?  The smoke of the cruel cabinet fight of the Long Qing Dynasty has not yet dissipated. Mr. Xu Ge, Mr. Gao Ge, Mr. Guo Ge, Mr. Chen Ge, Mr. Zhao Ge, Mr. Li Ge, and Mr. Yin Ge are all still alive, and none of them left the cabinet happily.  .  Many of these people are young and powerful, and there are many party members in the DPRK. Which one of them has been killed in the past three years?Ran said: "Isn't my dear grandson always saying that? Only by daring to think and act can we seize the opportunities of history! Besides, even if your father joins the cabinet, he is just a trap, so there is no need to worry that he is not qualified. Join the cabinet early and endure it.  Isn¡¯t your qualifications better than sitting idle in the Ministry of Etiquette and spending all your energy on that old woman?¡±

    As he spoke, he blew out smoke rings towards Zhao Hao and said, "Don't you want to be a veritable little pavilion boss?"

    "Okay" Zhao Hao nodded, but to be honest, he was actually not very enthusiastic about his father joining the cabinet.  Because he felt that as long as he paid the tribute on time and coordinated with the Jiangnan Gang to cooperate with his father-in-law, it would be best.

    ¡°In this way, I can not only have my father-in-law as a protective umbrella, but also not be too involved in the affairs of the court. I can concentrate on carrying out the three major revolutions and the great immigration.

    ¡°If Dad really joins the cabinet, he won¡¯t be able to sit back and watch like he is now. That may not be a good thing for himself and the group
