If we talk about the ups and downs and changes in the officialdom alone, Feng Bao's experience seems to be even more awesome than Zhang Juzheng.

In this life, Zhang Juzheng's career was smooth and smooth.

After passing the Jinshi exam, he was elected as a Hanlin Academy Shujishi, then served as an editor of the Hanlin Academy, then served as an Imperial College and a bachelor's degree in attendance, and then served as a Hanlin Academy.

Later, he was promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of Rites by Xu Jie. In just one month, he was promoted to the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet at the age of 42. He became the youngest prime minister of the Ming Dynasty.

Then he worked for sixteen years, and served as the chief assistant for the next ten years.

There are almost no ups and downs in the middle.

On the other hand, Feng Bao's journey to becoming the eunuch in charge of the seal (the number one person in the inner court of the Ming Dynasty) was much more bumpy.

I checked a lot of information and I don’t know when Feng Bao was castrated and entered the palace, but it should have been very early.

Otherwise, he would not have served as eunuch Bingbi at the age of twenty (the status of the Sili Supervisor was second only to the eunuch in the seal), but it was during the Jiajing period (1562-1566 AD).

Later, in the first year of Longqing (1567 AD), he was admiring Dongchang, and logically he should have served as the eunuch in charge of seals.

But Emperor Muzong Zhu Zai'er didn't like him very much, and Emperor Muzong's teacher Gao Gong, who entered the cabinet twice, didn't like him either.

So Feng Bao's immediate boss changed one after another like a flash. Chen Hong and Meng Chong, who were less experienced than him, had all risen. The position of eunuchs in the seal was not his turn.

If it weren't for hugging Empress Li's thighs, Empress Li was just taboo about Gao Gong, and Feng Bao would have no chance to serve as the supervisor of the seal.

Therefore, Feng Bao was much more angry during the six years of Emperor Muzong's dynasty than Zhang Juzheng.

As the eunuch leader, Feng Bao is very good at figuring out his master's intentions.

He is a powerful figure who can see all directions and listen to all directions.

It has long been seen that the close relationship between Emperor Wanli and Zhang Juzheng's monarchy and ministers now only exists on the surface, and cracks have long appeared inside.

He and Zhang Juzheng are the left and right arm of Empress Dowager Li and Emperor Wanli. Anyone who loses it will be unfortunate to the other party.

Not to mention the personal relationship with Zhang Juzheng, Feng Bao refused to let Zhang Juzheng collapse or resign from his post in terms of interests alone.

Therefore, when he heard Emperor Wanli's temptation just now, he couldn't help but feel tight. Fortunately, Empress Dowager Li's attitude was firm and unquestionable.

Emperor Wanli continued, "Mom, if Mr. Zhang is not allowed to step down and recuperate at home, when will his health be better?"

Empress Dowager Li did not answer, but shouted: "Eunuch Feng."

"I'm here."

"You immediately notify the Imperial Hospital when you return to the palace and ask them to announce to the public that Mr. Zhang had hemorrhoids and would not have the risk of his life."

Yesterday, Empress Dowager Li had never made such a decision.

Today, this is what she suddenly decided after seeing Zhang Juzheng.

Emperor Wanli was about to speak.

Only Feng Baozang said, "Empress wise!"

Then he said decisively: "We cannot think that Mr. Zhang's condition is serious and the severity is difficult to cure, otherwise some people in the court will have delusions."

Previously, he suggested that Empress Dowager Li block the news, but Zhu Yiliu refuted it.

Later, when I thought about it, it seemed to make sense and couldn't control others' mouths.

It’s better to say Zhang Juzheng’s condition to avoid troublesome people thinking about it. Hell is empty, and there are many devils on earth!

Hemorrhoids are good.

Men have nine out of ten moles, which is a very common disease that cannot be killed.

Emperor Wanli was unhappy, but he didn't dare to speak up and deliberately argue anything.

In this way, three people returned to the palace with a stool and sedan chair.

...

Zhu Yili stayed and helped Zhang Juzheng back to the bedroom.

Once again, the master and servant of the Grand Secretary Zhang's mansion responded to his understanding.

Lying down, Zhang Juzheng felt more comfortable, but he also needed to change his posture constantly.

Fortunately, Empress Dowager Li and Emperor Wanli have left, and they feel much more relaxed.

While the master had just lying down and still had the strength, You Qi asked quickly: "Prince Lu, are you sure my master has hemorrhoids?"

"Yes." Zhu Yiliu must be questioned.

"Prince Lu, why did you say yesterday that all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital are afraid of trouble and death?" Although the person who asked was You Qi, he felt that he was asking for the master.

"Hell is empty, the devil is in the world." Zhu Yili sighed.

Then, he looked at Zhang Juzheng and asked, "Mr. Zhang, do you want to step down from the position of chief minister?"

"Yes, I can't do it." Zhang Juzheng sighed deeply.

"Mr. Zhang, don't think so, and your mother won't let it go."

"But my body..."

"Mr. Zhang, it's just hemorrhoids, and it's too tired. After a little care, it will improve." Zhu Yiliu encouraged.

"I hope so!"

In order to reduce Zhang Juzheng's pain, Zhu Yili spoke quickly and went straight to the topic: "Mr. Zhang, my mother said she would find a temporary acting chief assistant for you. What do you think?"

Zhang Juzheng hesitated for a moment and replied: "It's good that the empress thinks there is no problem."

"Okay! Then this matter is settled. Let my mother find a temporary acting assistant for Mr. Zhang, who will be able to recover from illness at home."

"Is there anyone in my heart who chooses?"

"If you have to choose one, please let the temporary chief assistant handle small matters by themselves. If you ask your mother about big matters, you will ask your mother for the big matters."

Who asked about the big thing? Zhu Yili thought about it and thought about it again and again. He must not bother Zhang Juzheng anymore. Can you ask Emperor Wanli? It’s not reliable.

Although Emperor Wanli seemed to care about Zhang Juzheng as much as Empress Dowager Li and was as sad as she was, her thoughts must be different.

Emperor Wanli was eager to take power. If he really asked him everything, his wings would have to be hardened.

But do you have to ask him, Prince Lu? After all, as a time traveler, he knows what Zhang Juzheng thinks and what attitudes are taking and what policies are adopted.

That doesn't work either.

The status of the prince of the Ming Dynasty was very awkward, and it seemed that he would live like a pig.

After thinking about it, I still asked Empress Li the best.

One is she has power, two is she smart, three is she believes in Zhang Juzheng, four is she doesn't want Emperor Wanli to take power so early...

Of course there are five more. She now has a good son who has a noble soul who wants to save Zhang Juzheng and wants to save Daming.

Zhu Yiliu has already thought about it. If Empress Dowager Li is worried about the major event, she might as well ask Zhang Juzheng to see if Zhang Juzheng’s thoughts are consistent with his ideas.

I'll know if I check it a few more times. Anyway, I have reasons and told Empress Li: Empress Guanyin is sending a dream!

Asking Queen Mother Li is like asking him. You can pretend to be a pig in front of others and Emperor Wanli, but can it be used in front of Queen Mother Li, that is, his mother?

Which mother in the world doesn’t want her son to be excellent? Which mother is guarding against her because her son is too excellent?

Zhang Juzheng nodded after hearing this, thinking that this plan was feasible.

It reminded him of the fact that when his father Zhang Wenming died, he had to step down and go home to follow the rules of the Ming Dynasty (actually only 27 months).

But at that time, Empress Dowager Li and Emperor Wanli were determined to take over the relationship, and he himself was unwilling to give up the reform.

In the end, he was allowed to return to his hometown to bury his father in three months.

At that time, Zhang Juzheng himself proposed to choose a temporary acting chief minister.

Even so, Empress Dowager Li and Emperor Wanli still disagreed. For this reason, Emperor Wanli issued several orders in succession.

At that time, the second auxiliary to the cabinet was Lu Diaoyang.

Because of Emperor Wanli's will, Lu Diaoyang needed to send 800 miles to deliver it to him in a hurry.

Now that he is seriously ill, he has proposed to choose a temporary acting chief assistant.

This time, when someone was in the capital, King Lu encouraged him and encouraged him. Empress Dowager Li and Emperor Wanli would not disagree?

What Prince Lu said in the past two days is quite reliable.
