Chapter 128 The Emperor’s Master, the Prime Minister who saved the time
When the time comes,
All historical figures who were lucky enough to be selected by the system immediately fell into deep sleep.
The beam of light gradually fell, and they gathered again in the "Exchange Space of Ten Thousand Dynasties"!
Qin Shihuang: "Who will we take stock of today? It's a pity that I couldn't win over those talents. I hope there will be opportunities in the future."
Liu Bang: "Last time he was a fierce general, will he be a counselor this time? If he is a counselor, my Han family Zhang Liang must be among the top five!"
Yang Jian: "We in Sui Dynasty also have many talented people, so why is there no one on the list?"
Li Shimin: "I made Xue Rengui last time, I wonder what kind of talents I can make in the future?"
While the emperors are making their own plans, the new video inventory has officially begun!
[Hello everyone, welcome to this short video: taking stock of the top ten famous figures in history!]
[Producer: Su Qian]
[Note: This ranking only focuses on fame, not merit.]
"Top ten famous faces!!!"
"Damn it! I must grab one!!!"
"What a famous person! It's incredible! This is much more valuable than a powerful general!"
[The tenth among the top ten famous figures in history: Zhang Juzheng, the master of the emperor!]
In the tenth year of Wanli, during the period when Zhang Juzheng was implementing the New Deal, he became seriously ill and died at the age of fifty-eight.
When the minions sent by Emperor Wanli Zhu Yijun of the Ming Dynasty to search Zhang Juzheng's home came to the gate of Zhang's Mansion, a wordless stone tablet suddenly fell from the sky, right in the center of the gate of Zhang's Mansion.
A ray of golden light shot out from the stone tablet and enveloped the Zhang Mansion; at the same time, another golden light shot straight into the sky, forming a panoramic screen of light over the capital!
"This is a miracle!!!!"
"Sir, his achievements are so great that he must be protected by God!!"
"Your Majesty! You can't raid your home! It will offend God!!"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!!! There is a vision coming from the sky outside Zhang's Mansion!!"
Zhu Yijun received several reports one after another, saying that there were strange phenomena and miracles outside Zhang Juzheng's mansion!
He couldn't sit still anymore and quickly stood up and said, "I'll go and see for myself!"
Seeing Zhang Juzheng appear first, Zhu Youjian immediately shouted excitedly: "Haha! It's Zhang Juzheng! He is my chief minister in the Ming Dynasty!!!"
[Zhang Juzheng, courtesy name Shuda, nickname Taiyue, also known as Zhang Baigui, was from Jiangling, Huguang, also known as Zhang Jiangling.
It can be said that Zhang Juzheng’s academic path was very smooth.
He was a scholar at the age of twelve, a scholar at the age of sixteen, and a Jinshi at the age of twenty-three. From then on, he began his official career of more than twenty years, and also started his magnificent life.]
Some people who knew about the imperial examination exclaimed: "You are a scholar at the age of twelve, a scholar at the age of sixteen, and a Jinshi at the age of twenty-three! What a great person!"
"My next door neighbor's second uncle's brother-in-law, I heard, is already forty-two years old this year, and he is still just a poor scholar!"
"Alas, this is a comparison of goods, so you have to throw it away, and comparing people to others will lead to death."
[Zhang Juzheng was a famous politician, reformer, and the most outstanding cabinet minister in the Ming Dynasty. However, he was a very controversial person.]
When Emperor Hongwu Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Zhang Juzheng came from the Ming Dynasty, he smiled so much that he showed his teeth, "Okay! Our Ming Dynasty has a lot of talents!"
Yongle Emperor Zhu Di also stroked his beard very happily and said: "Not bad! At least I won't be on the list this time tomorrow!"
"It's over. The tenth place is gone. Is it possible that our Qing Dynasty will have to run naked again?" Emperor Kangxi Xuan Ye had an unknown premonition in his heart.
[Some people say that he was successful in reviving the Ming Dynasty and extending the life of the Ming Dynasty.
Some people also say that he has bad personal ethics, takes bribes, is dictatorial in government affairs, is extravagant and licentious, conspires to harm others, attacks dissidents, and so on.
In fact, no one can make mistakes without being a sage. Today, we will take stock of Zhang Juzheng’s merits and demerits, right and wrong.】
[Zhang Juzheng is neither a good person nor a bad person, he is a complicated person.]
[First of all, as the chief minister, Zhang Juzheng’s power was unprecedentedly powerful, to the point where the emperor did not even dare to call him by his first name. 】
"Isn't such a minister a powerful minister?"
"Haha! It seems that Lao Zhu's descendants have had something to endure!"
"Zhang Juzheng must have made great contributions to be on the famous list, but he is also suspected of being a powerful official. No wonder Su Shangshen said that Zhang Juzheng is neither a good person nor a bad person, but a complicated person."
[A dynasty flourishes once, but is like a flash in the pan in the long river of history.
This is true whether it is the prosperous age of Hanwu, the prosperous age of Kaiyuan, the prosperous age of Yongle, or the prosperous reign of Renzong.】
[For the Ming Dynasty, there was no way to escape this fate. Whether it was Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di, or Zhu Zhanji, the dynasties they created were once glorious and powerful. 】
Lao Zhu's eyes lit up and he murmured: "Zhu Zhanji? Which generation of emperor is he?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang died, Zhu Zhanji was not yet born, so he did not know that Zhu Zhanji was actually Zhu Di's grandson and his great-grandson.
"Hey! This kid Zhanji can actually be talked about by Su Shangshen? It's worth it!" Zhu Di smiled happily.
With the support of the eunuch, Zhu Gaochi stood with difficulty and watched the oracle in the sky.
When he saw Zhu Zhanji's name being read out, he excitedly said to Zhu Zhanji next to him: "Son, I never thought you could create a glorious Ming Dynasty! Very good!"
As soon as Zhu Gaochi said these words, there was immediately no sound around him.
At the same time, he suddenly woke up and said in shock: "Zhan Ji later became the emperor, doesn't that mean he is talking about me?"
Obviously, everyone around him is also aware of this, including Zhu Gaoxu, who has always had thoughts about the throne.
But Zhu Zhanji was still young, so he didn't think much about it. He just felt that his father was the prince, so as Zhu Gaochi's eldest son, it was natural for him to become the emperor.
After Zhu Zhanji learned that he would become a wise king, his face turned red with excitement, but the surroundings were very quiet at this time, and it was hard for him to find anyone to express his excitement, so he could only hold it in hard.
[When the Ming Dynasty reached the Tumubao Incident, it began to go downhill.
Although Yu Qian turned the tide from falling and helped the building from falling, what he saved was the Ming Dynasty's destiny, not the destiny of the entire society.]
"The storm is about to fall, but the building is about to collapse! I wonder if he will be on the list?"
"Yu Qian! I remember it!"
[When the benefits of the place of birth system in the early Ming Dynasty were exhausted, the entire society of the Ming Dynasty began to decline continuously, and various problems began to gradually be exposed.
And Zhang Juzheng lives in such a declining era.】
[Zhang Juzheng relied on his own vision and talent to extend the life of this dynasty that had become sluggish and was slipping into the abyss.
Although he failed to completely save the Ming Dynasty, he did make a huge contribution to the continuation of the Ming Dynasty.
He is definitely an unparalleled capable minister in governing the country. In terms of governing the country, his vision is clearer and more long-term than anyone else in the world!】
