Chapter 109 Clearing the Portal

After seeing Zhang Juzheng, Zhu Yijun came to Xiyuan. In name, he came to Xiyuan to practice riding and archery, but in fact he came to meet Gao Gong.

Gao Gong knew why the emperor came to see him again, so he forcefully asked with a smile: "Is your majesty embarrassing me?"

"It's more than embarrassment."

Zhu Yijun replied, and said: "After all, the master also collects the money donated by the general soldiers of all sides after eating empty salaries. I know it."

Gao Gong was taken aback when he heard this, then smiled and said, "Your Majesty can understand."

Then, Gao Gong added: "As an auxiliary minister, how can you make a military minister feel at ease if you don't take money from the military minister? After all, there are too many civil servants who can restrain the military minister, from the military supervisor to the governor, to the Ministry of War and the Kodao spokesperson , any one person can spoil the affairs of Wuchen."

"I know!"

Zhu Yijun nodded.

"His Majesty!"

Gao Gong suddenly became serious, cupped his hands at Zhu Yijun and said, "Your Majesty will force Jiang Ling to clean up the house! He has this ability now!"

"Your Majesty has given Qi Jiguang this knife to Jiang Ling to hold, so His Majesty can't let him hold it for nothing, so that it becomes a rusty blunt knife, which can only be stored in the warehouse in the future."

Gao Gong continued to speak.

Zhu Yijun only nodded after hearing this, and immediately asked: "You should understand why I came to see you again. Ever since I accepted your proposal to change the country and return to the bloc, you should have guessed that such a day would come."

"I understand that I will never bring up the case of the king and minister again."

Gao Gong replied.

The case of Minister Wang was an unjust case planned by Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao to further attack Gao Gong. It was only because most of the civil officials opposed this that Zhang Juzheng finally had to give up doing it, and he did not succeed in murdering Gao Gong.

But this is also regarded as a blemish on Zhang Juzheng's power struggle from beginning to end, and it is easy to be used by others, such as using this matter to let Gao Gong come forward to criticize Zhang Juzheng.

As the former chief assistant, Gao Gong still has some energy in the ruling and opposition parties. If it really happens that Xu Jie and Gao Gong join forces when Zhang Juzheng is cleaning up the door, or even some of Zhang Juzheng's internal staff defect, it will undoubtedly affect the overall situation of the reform.

Therefore, Zhu Yijun's coming here is just an attitude of high arch.

After hearing what Gao Gong said, Zhu Yijun was relieved and didn't say anything more.

As the chief figure presiding over reforms in the Longqing Dynasty, Gao Gong obviously knew the general situation.

Ten days later, at the end of June in the sixth year of Wanli.

For example, the Forbidden City, which has been scorched by the fire for a long time, just got a night of coolness, and then the ground was full of fire the next day. Even in the main hall, the ice used also melted very quickly, and sometimes lost the effect of suppressing the heat.

Zhu Yijun, who was sitting in the west room of the Wenhua Palace, also began to feel beads of sweat dripping from his forehead, but he was not in a hurry to get someone to bring a handkerchief, and only asked Zhang Juzheng: "Sir, you must have read the two chapters I gave you?"

"Go back to Your Majesty, I have read it."

Zhang Juzheng replied.

Zhu Yijun nodded, seeing that Zhang Juzheng's hair on his temples was also drenched, he said, "Please bear with me, sir, it's not appropriate for someone to exchange ice at this time."

Zhang Juzheng bowed his hands and said yes.

Then, Zhu Yijun asked again: "After watching it, what do you think, sir?"

Zhang Juzheng replied: "I can't tolerate it!"

Zhu Yijun laughed: "I also have this intention. And if I want to be unforgiving, if there is any evidence of meddling in political power, I should not forgive my husband's domestic slaves!"

"I would like to abide by the holy decree."

Zhang Juzheng replied, and said: "It's just that your majesty can spare a few people the death penalty to show kindness and benevolence?"

"No!"

Zhu Yijun replied without hesitation, and said: "If I promise my husband today, wouldn't my husband teach me for so many years for nothing?"

"What's more, if you don't clean up the family seriously, how can you let me use them with confidence in the future? Do you really want them to follow your husband in the future?"

"If this is the case, Mr. is too ruthless to those who are willing to practice Mr.'s ambition!"

"His Majesty!"

Zhang Juzheng prostrated himself on the ground, and suddenly said excitedly: "I don't have the benevolence of a woman, and I know that there are laws that cannot be lenient, but I just want your majesty to be known as a benevolent monarch because of my ministers! It's not just for the powerful ministers to suppress it." Yongjun too!"

Zhu Yijun laughed: "I know that Mr.'s heart is just my vanity and the long-term stability of the world, which is more important? Mr. should treat the people of the country more than me! After all, Mr. is my teacher, not my slave. , Mr. precepts and deeds, should I pay more attention to my name, or to the common people? Besides, sir, I really think that they would not be more willing to see the emperor as a mediocre monarch?"

After Zhu Yijun asked this question, Zhang Juzheng kowtowed and said, "I understand! Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will act according to the holy will."

Zhu Yijun was overjoyed after hearing this, and came over to help Zhang Juzheng: "Mr. You Lao cleaned up the moths for me and left me a group of truly usable officials. In addition, after the replacement of the Wuxuan Division, it was no longer set up. The Privy Council is set up under the military governor's mansion, which is governed by one plus three solitary border ministers, who are in charge of the military aircraft, so as to divide the power of the soldiers."

Zhang Juzheng clapped his hands and said yes, and took out the secret disclosure: "In fact, I have prepared a performance to clean up the door, and please Your Majesty approve it."

Zhu Yijun took it and ordered, "Come in!"

So, Zhang Jing walked in with a group of small handymen carrying ice, and came to Zhu Yijun's side.

Zhu Yijun handed the secret to Zhang Jing: "Immediately give it to Mr. after being popular."

Half an hour later, Zhang Juzheng returned to the cabinet, and with a sullen face, he handed over the red-approved secret report to Zhang Siwei, and ordered: "The Fusi of Jinyiwei North Town arrests the officials of the Wuxuan Division, and the officials from Langguan All of the following will be imprisoned! In addition, Qin Yao of the Sixth Division will also be imprisoned! Jin Yiwei will immediately go to Zhejiang Province to arrest Li Cai, the governor of the capital, and take him to Beijing for trial!"

Zhang Siwei froze in place after hearing this, and did not respond.

"Why is this?"

Wang Guoguang immediately put down the pen in his hand, walked up to Zhang Juzheng, and asked Zhang Juzheng: "Uncle, all the Wuxuan Division has been sent to prison, what happened, it can't be a big case of treason, right?! "

"It's not too far from conspiracy."

Zhang Juzheng replied.

"how can that be!"

Wang Guoguang cupped his hands and said, "Uncle!"

Immediately, Wang Guoguang immediately changed his words: "Yuanfu, these people are all your disciples! Even if you want to clean up the house, you must show some sympathy, right?"

"Could it be that the prospective students rebel against the master, and the master can't punish the students?"

Zhang Juzheng asked a question.

After hearing this, Wang Guoguang said: "Liu Tai and Wu Zhongxing are ungrateful, but most of them are good after all! Let's talk about this time, whether it is Jia Qiyuan and Ru Zongshun from Datong, or Song Yizheng from Huguang, As well as Liang Menglong of Ji Liao, none of them had to abandon the great government because of this, people say that the prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach, uncle, the younger generation hates the old man not to go, but you can't just care about it!"

"Seeing that it's about to rot, what's wrong?"

"If it weren't for Yangshi, the servant wouldn't know that the whole Zhejiang would soon become a Zhejiang that is not the imperial court! The chieftains in the southwest will be completely unscrupulous because of them!"

Zhang Juzheng said: "It's better to clean up strictly now, so as not to cause a Cai Jing in the future, and let the new coup turn into an evil government!"

"I can't draw up this decree!"

Wang Guoguang said.

Zhang Juzheng asked: "Ge Lao is disobedient?"

Wang Guoguang said anxiously: "Uncle! This is for your sake!"

"Purpose!"

Zhang Juzheng shouted sharply.

Zhang Siwei trembled for a while, and hurriedly accepted the secret disclosure: "I will draw it up!"

After speaking, Zhang Siwei also said: "But Yuanfu, Ru Guan is right, you should really think twice about doing this!"

"You don't need to say any more, the servant has made up his mind!"

Zhang Juzheng waved his hand.

Wang Guoguang sighed and said nothing.

And Zhang Siwei went to draw up the purpose.

Not long after, the Supervisor of Rituals approved the decree.

"quick!"

"quick!"

"quick!"

That night, inside the left gate of Chang'an, a large number of guards in Jinyi were lighting torches, divided into two teams, and came towards the Yamen of the Ministry of War with swift footsteps.

　After referring to everyone's opinions, I still choose the Privy Council, not to reset the Ministry of Education, which is not a big deal.What's more, it is equivalent to setting up an institution with the same name in the Dudu Mansion of the Five Armies. If the level is set lower, it is justified at the time.What's more, the fact that eunuchs are not allowed to intervene in politics will eventually become nonsense, let alone other things.It just depends on whether the people in power at the time are willing or not.
