Early the next morning, news came from the palace. It was just as Xu Qian had expected. Oh my God! After receiving the report, the time of Mao had not yet arrived. In such a good time for cultivating immortality, I did not go to Dagaoxuan today.

The palace continued to cultivate his immortality, but ordered people to summon Xu Qian into the palace immediately, and the holy driver had also moved to Nuange.

This long-awaited Nuange was a bit unfamiliar to Jiajing, and there were no futons here, only chairs, and sitting there made him feel a little uncomfortable.

But he finally managed to endure it.

Holding a Taoist scripture in my hand, I glanced at it absently for a few times, but I seemed to find it boring again. To cultivate immortality, you must have a state of mind. I think it is no different from the protagonist in a fantasy novel. I can't even calm down, no matter how many Taoist scriptures I read.

no good.

It's strange to say that Xu Qian went to Zhejiang, and Jiajing was able to calm down. Now that Xu Qian returned to Beijing, Jiajing suddenly thought of his mission. It was time for him to do something that wasted people and money. If he didn't do something, it seemed difficult to show off.

Wenzhi and martial arts.

In fact, this is also related to the relationship between Jiajing and Xu Qian.

Although Jiajing was ambitious, his eyes were always on the court. He didn't care about the things outside. What he wanted was to issue instructions one by one, and then those officials who were as docile as dogs had to obey and obey.

Go and do it. This is Jiajing’s ideal.

So Jiajing made two preparations. On the one hand, he kept scheming with the officials, and on the other hand, he was cultivating immortals. The purpose of scheming with the officials was to better cultivate immortals. The longer you live in cultivating immortals, the better you can scheming. These two

, is a mutually reinforcing relationship.

But Xu Qian was different. Xu Qian was like a telescope, allowing Jiajing to see farther. Therefore, Jiajing always had some ambition.

After all, the Zhejiang New Deal was too far away from Jiajing, but it was completely different after Xu Qian came back.

So Jiajing pursed his lips and said to Huang Jin: "Bring me the Ming Pao, the latest one."

The latest Ming Pao was also a few days ago, but it was kept in the palace. After all, it was very influential. It was uncertain when His Majesty would come. Huang Jin quickly took the latest Ming Pao and presented it to the emperor.

Jiajing spread his arms and looked at it for a few times, then raised his head and said: "Does the New Deal require Wang Xue? If all provinces have administration, wouldn't it mean that in the future, even the imperial examinations will require Wang Xue?"

Although this is a doubt of Jiajing, Jiajing's face does not look very good-looking. This is a very serious political issue. From the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, Neo-Confucianism has been authentic for more than a hundred years. If Neo-Confucianism is

If it is changed to Wang Xue, big trouble will definitely occur.

In fact, whether it is Wang Xue or Neo-Confucianism, it has no meaning to the emperor Jiajing and the eunuch Huang Jin. It is just human nature that they are unwilling to make earth-shaking changes for things that have nothing to do with them.

Moreover, Wang Xue was unknown to Jiajing after all. He did not understand Neo-Confucianism, but Neo-Confucianism had hundreds of years of experience to follow, so he naturally knew that advocating Neo-Confucianism was not a bad thing. But he did not understand Wang Xue, but he did not know that Wang Xue would use his

In what direction will the world be led?

This is the issue Jiajing is most concerned about.

Huang Jin doesn't know how to answer now, but many of his relatives were lured to Zhejiang by Xu Qian. It is said that he even set up workshops in Zhejiang and made a fortune. For him, Wang Xue and Neo-Confucianism are meaningless, and the New Deal

But it has real benefits for him. Now that the emperor asked such a sentence in such a tone, he obviously has doubts about Wang Xue. Wang Xue and the New Deal are tied together by Xu Qian. If you have doubts about the New Deal today, there is no guarantee that you will not have doubts about the New Deal tomorrow.

Have doubts.

Huang Jin hesitated for a moment and then replied: "What your Majesty is asking is that the two Yang Ge elders also said the same thing, saying that Wang Xue is not a good thing. Last time I went to the cabinet to read His Majesty's oral edict, the two elders said

Said, this Wang Xuezhi

The harm is great, and Wang Xue will never be able to succeed. You must be careful, especially some Wang Xue great scholars, who are very unpleasant. The servant is thinking, even the two pavilion elders said this, obviously this Wang Xue is really

Not a good thing."

Jiajing smiled faintly and said, "Really?" After that, he stopped asking further questions and continued to read the newspaper.

But Huang Jin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It was really dangerous just now. If he had not answered well at that time, given the emperor's suspicious temperament, he might have noticed that something was wrong.

His answer just now is very clever - as a eunuch, he obviously does not understand the difference between Wang Xue and Neo-Confucianism. Therefore, if he compares Wang Xue and Neo-Confucianism, not only will he be full of mistakes, but it will also be easy to say

Wrong words. In this case, then from another angle, bring out the two cabinet elders and express their hatred for Wang Xue. In this way, based on the relationship between Jiajing and Yang Ting and them, I am afraid that

Arouse the rebellious heart, don't you want to get rid of Wang Xue and be quick? Don't you want to see Wang Xue unpopular? Well, let's make you uncomfortable, let you feel like a lump in your throat. Of course, the emperor is afraid that there will be more at this time.

One intention is to use this Wang Xue to constrain the cabinet. After all, the emperor has always been uneasy about the cabinet. This of course also comes from the emperor's suspicious temperament. Since he is not at ease, wouldn't it be right to add more stumbling blocks to the cabinet?

What Huang Jin used was the eunuch's mental skills. Eunuchs were servile and servile. They specialized in taking advantage of others. They made twists and turns in everything, and used various subtle methods to invisibly change the emperor's likes and dislikes.

Jiajing, on the other hand, used the emperor's mentality. Although the emperor was the most powerful person, he still lived in the palace. In order to check and balance his ministers, he often used his own strength to control his ministers and his people to control others. Of course, this was based on

Studying the academic system is also Jiajing’s current thinking.

At the same time, Xu Qian had already entered the palace. After passing the Meridian Gate, he was led by a eunuch. Xu Qian asked the eunuch: "Which palace has your majesty been in recently?"

The eunuch said: "Most of the time I am in the Great Gaoxuan Hall."

When Xu Qian heard the name of the palace, he knew it was related to the nonsense of cultivating immortals. He felt a little unhappy and asked: "Where is your Majesty now?"

"If you want to get back to me, sir, I'll be in the Nuan Pavilion."

After hearing this, Xu Qian felt better. He was afraid that he would be dragged to the so-called Xuandian to accompany Jiajing and play tricks. Although he was not a moral minister, he was still considered one of the iconic officials. I don't know how many people were there.

Enjoying the shade under a tree is no longer the same as before. You must pay attention to the influence and harmony.

I followed the eunuch all the way to Nuange. I haven't been back for nearly a year, but my memory of this place is still fresh. After the eunuch went in to report, he heard Jiajing's voice inside: "Come in and talk."

Xu Qian entered the pavilion and paid homage: "Xu Qian, a humble minister, has met your Majesty."

Jiajing looks more mature than a year ago, but his temperament is a bit strange, always a little different. Maybe he has been an otaku for a long time and is addicted to cultivating immortals, so he looks like this.

This is a disease and must be cured! Xu Qian came to the conclusion in his mind.

Jiajing had a clear smile on his face and said, "Get up and sit down."

Xu Qian sat down and said: "Your Majesty, I have come back from leave this time. Firstly, my wife is expecting a baby. Secondly, I want to come back to see Your Majesty."

"Really?" Jiajing also looked very energetic and said, "It's good to come back. It's been a year since you last left without saying goodbye. This year I heard that you did a good job in Zhejiang.

It’s very embarrassing for me. Although some people have criticized me, I’m not deaf or blind. I know what’s going on in Zhejiang.”

Zhejiang was mentioned as soon as he opened his mouth. Xu Qian had to deal with it carefully and said: "Your Majesty, I wonder what these people are criticizing?"

Of course Xu Qian knew what they were criticizing, but as a human being, he always had to present an image of a victim being cheated. It was also necessary to strengthen the emperor's understanding in this regard, so that he could better target those who criticized him behind the scenes.

A better trap.

Jiajing smiled slightly: "It's nothing more than saying that you have misled the country and the people by setting up a new deal in Zhejiang. I also had a new deal before, and you also had a new deal. They criticized my new deal, and they also criticized your new deal. I have long been tired of it."

Xu Qian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. In fact, he may not be very smart, but his opponent is really a bit stupid. Originally, Xu Qian was a little uneasy when he returned to Beijing. After all, he hadn't been back for so long. God knew someone would be so malicious. But when

Xu Qian was completely reassured when he knew that these officials, while criticizing Jiajing's New Deal without leaving any room, would also take the opportunity to criticize Zhejiang's New Deal.

There is nothing wrong with the fact that the Zhejiang New Deal was initiated by Xu Qian himself. If Yan Guan specifically focused on this point, there is no guarantee that the emperor would not change his new ideas. After all, the country has not reached the point where change is inevitable, and everyone wants to be safe. But these people put Jiajing’s

One account

In addition, when the emperor came, Xu Qian yelled and scolded him. This was obviously a deliberate attempt to ridicule and make Jiajing angry. The emperor did not accept other people's criticism of his New Deal, so naturally he would not accept other people's criticism of Zhejiang's New Deal.

Some people will understand this truth, but six or seven out of ten officials are pigs. As teammates with these pigs, unless you keep an eye on them day and night, tie them with ropes, and drip wax on them, otherwise they will be

Suddenly, an inexplicable memorial came up, trapping everyone.

Cabinet ministers, this is where it’s not easy. They are good at fighting alone, and they are cunning and calculating. They can definitely trick you into applauding you. But on the other hand, they can never fight alone. There will always be opportunities.
