After Wang Xilie said this, he kowtowed to the ground and exchanged tears with tears: "Your Majesty, the ministers all know the clear intention of the emperor's reform! However, those who disregard the six-foot body and criticize the remonstrance are for the benefit of the ministers and others? Zhang Juzheng and other cabinet ministers

With her clever words and flattery, the Queen Mother wants to take over all the power after she retires, and if she becomes the 'Prime Minister of the Cabinet', isn't it because of her return to the prime minister?"

"Taizu said, 'Anyone who proposes to appoint a prime minister should be killed immediately.' I don't know who on your majesty's left and right will shake the king's heart. In my opinion, the emperor should kill these sycophants to thank the world!"

After hearing this, Zhu Yijun took over and said: "Well, no one told me about the 'Prime Minister' matter. It's like walking in the inner court or the palace minister. It's all my idea. In your opinion, what should I do?

Thank you for the law?"

When Wang Xilie heard the emperor say these words, his face was ashen, he fell to the ground and choked with sobs, unable to speak.

Next to him, Zhang Han, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, came out, knelt down next to Wang Xilie and said: "I can get the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, which will be helpful to Zhang Jiang's imperial court. However, in the past few years, the selection of the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel has always been in the spirit of being upright.

Within a few years, his followers spread all over the world - students and township party members of the same age, I don't know how many people to ask for help. If I disobey, I will be scolded. I am a minister of heaven, and I am not a member of the Hanlin who prepares advisors.

How is the emperor's power and fortune different from Yan Song's during the reign of Emperor Shizong?"

Zhang Han's knife penetrated deep and hard, which opened the eyes of the courtiers who did not know the inside story - it turns out that people who cut their own people can cut to the bone. As the important core of Zhang Juzheng's party, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel turned against him today.

Even if Zhang Juzheng is here, he may not be able to resist.

Zhang Han's betrayal completely angered Yin Zhengmao, who held the title of minister of the Ministry of War and served as director of the Department of Martial Arts and Combat. When Yin Zhengmao heard Zhang Han's verbal abuse, he was furious and said: "Zhang Tianguan, don't be secretive. Let's talk about it. Zhang Juzheng is telling you

Who did you recommend? Are there any of these people who are incompetent - even if you name one who is not excellent in the assessment!"

Zhang Han didn't expect that Yin Zhengmao's counterattack angle was so tricky. He was speechless for a while and couldn't answer.

Wan Shihe, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, said: "Most of the censors and ministers are minions of the Yuan Fu. These people are responsible for the inspection of the capital and the outside. Can't Zhang Juzheng's party members get an 'excellent'? Professor Yin's words are wrong!

"When saying the word "professor", Wan Shihe also added an accent, which was quite a joke. Because among the people, people who sell tea are called tea doctors, and those who teach in poverty are generally called professors - Zhu Yijun in martial arts and

In medical schools, teachers are collectively referred to as professors, which has long been laughed at by Qingliu.

Yin Zhengmao laughed angrily at Wan Shihe, and knelt down and said to Zhu Yijun: "Your Majesty, Yin Zhengmao, participated in the impeachment of Wan Shihe and criticized the imperial censorship. It is clear that the external censorship system has the intention to disrupt the government. Please punish him for his arrogance and rebellion!"

Zhu Yijun listened to them attacking each other with a stern face, but in his heart he gave Yin Zhengmao a bad review - if you can't do it, just ask your parents, you are not good enough.

All the ministers in the palace were frightened when they saw the real dynasty fighting. If you don't do it right at this time, the party strife in the Song Dynasty will appear. Whether your own side is correct or not is not only a matter of conscience, but more importantly, you have to ask yourself

The family standing behind you, parents, wives and children, can they withstand failure?

Seeing that Yin Zhengmao was no match for Wan Shihe, Tan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of War, came out and saluted the emperor first, and then said: "Your Majesty, I am a Jinshi in the 23rd year of Jiajing period. I have been engaged in military affairs for 30 years. I will not be fighting in this life."

, is to prepare for war! Now I have a question to ask Wan Shilang - what is the war about? "

After hearing this, Wan Shihe said: "I already know what Tan Bingbu meant. Now it has spread from martial arts to all over the world - the war is about food, grass and logistics! I have a rhetorical question, this spring when the imperial court sent troops to conquer Burma, when The law has not changed yet - are these soldiers hungry or cold?"

After hearing this, Tan Lun thought to himself that I had indeed taken you into a ditch. So his teammate Guo Chaobin, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, came out and cut off Wanshi and his retreat with a knife hanging from the antelope's horn:

"Wan Shilang is ridiculous! The military expenses for Burma are being spent on the emperor's internal funds! It's only spring now, and the treasury has already spent half of it - without the emperor's internal funds to support the government in the past few years, the imperial court would have been unable to open the pot!"

When Wan Shihe heard this, his breath was suffocated. But he was always in a hurry, so he immediately argued: "If there was no work in Huanghuai, how could the court have no money? In the four years of Wanli, the court's income, grain and rice combined, exceeded 1 Seventeen million - nearly twice as much as the first year of Wanli and the previous emperor! If we can rest with the people, the world will be in great order!"

After listening to Wan Shihe's sophistry, all the ministers in the court found that he was at a loss for words and was making nonsense. Seeing that the two sides were about to decide the winner, the highest-ranking official on the side who opposed the reform, Lu Shusheng, also came out. Lie spoke.

He ignored the mutual attacks between Tan Lun and Wan Shihe, knelt down directly in the front row and said: "Your Majesty, I once proposed to your Majesty, 'Follow the old rules, save memorials, be cautious about rewards and responsibilities, and prevent obstructions and obstructions.' Fortunately, he was praised by the emperor. In recent years, the emperor has overturned all the policies of his ministers. He did not follow the old rules but had the intention of reform. He ignored the memorials and used silver seals to direct the affairs. He accidentally rewarded and punished Zhang Jia. Those who receive undue honors and rewards, arrest and torture officials in order to hide them, these are the things that I deplore deeply. And why does the emperor do this?"

Lu Shusheng was elected Huiyuan in the 20th year of Jiajing, and he was selected as a commoner after being admitted to Jinshi. Later, he was recommended by the Scholars as one of the leaders of the Qing Dynasty due to his filial piety and literary skills. During the several years when he was appointed as the Minister of Rites, Zhang Juzheng repeatedly wanted to recommend Lu Shusheng to the cabinet. , were all firmly rejected.

Lu Shusheng had no competition for the position of Minister of Rites, and his prestige and status in the court were extremely high. Moreover, it was not an exaggeration to say that he was born in Jiajing for 20 years and had many disciples and former officials all over the world.

If Lu Shusheng challenged Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Juzheng would never dare to ignore it. But today Zhang Juzheng was at home waiting for inspection, so Lu Shangshu focused all his firepower on the emperor.

After Zhu Yijun heard this, it was really difficult to answer. At that time, Lu Shangshu wrote a formal letter to teach Zhu Yijun how to be an emperor. In order to disguise himself, Zhu Yijun pretended to praise Lu Shangshu.

Sure enough, you have to eat what you sow. Now that the true face of the reform emperor was exposed, Zhu Yijun really couldn't answer the question raised by Mr. Lu.

But Lu Shusheng was a very kind man and did not demand the emperor to answer his questions. He just knelt there quietly, leaned over and said: "I have been the Minister of Rites in the sixth year of Longqing, and have been for more than five years now. I once As a historian, I have been away from the court for twenty years. The emperor has given me the favor of the country, but it only adds another insect to the court. Since the emperor has the intention of reform, I ask you to go."

After saying that, he knelt on the ground with tears streaming down his muddy eyes. Lu Shusheng choked with sobs and said: "After I leave, I hope that the emperor will use his internal servants to clean it up from time to time to prevent the loss of power from becoming unavoidable. I would like to express my love to my relatives. Rather than being insatiable in your pursuits, you must be modest.”

It stands to reason that it was not etiquette for him to leave such a long farewell message without the consent of the emperor. However, Lu Shusheng had no desire for an official position and had long ignored life and death. This time, Zhang Zhi was better than Wan Shihe.

Zhang Han's attack was even more powerful.

By resigning directly, he was telling the emperor that there are fewer and fewer honest and honest people around you who do not seek high-ranking officials and generous salaries - and with every additional official who dares to ask for help, the emperor will become more frightened, because Lu Shusheng believes that every

The emperor needs people with integrity in his court!

Sure enough, as soon as he finished his parting words, Wang Xilie, Wan Shihe, Zhang Han and the thirty-seven people who had gone to the palace together to oppose the emperor's first imperial edict knelt down and said: "I also beg you to go.

Please allow your Majesty’s permission!”
