Chapter 76 Countercurrent

The first person to fire the first shot was Wang Zhuoyu, the censor of the two Huaihe Rivers. At the beginning of June of the second year of Wanli, he reported that there were more than 30 fields under the Fourth and other divisions of the Lianghuai Transportation Department, and there was a severe drought at the beginning of spring. Before the summer came.

, there was another severe storm, the rivers and seas suddenly swelled, people and animals disappeared, and the salt drifted away. The cottages collapsed, and the cooks were homeless and hungry.

The above inscription is not true or false, at least it is just a matter of fact. However, the censor changed his tone and went directly to Zhu Yijun and Zhang Juzheng's great promotion of the method of drying salt: "I patrolled the two Huaihe Rivers and met with the Secretary of Transportation.

According to the order of the government, a large-scale construction work will be carried out, and the salt drying field will be completed by June."

"When I asked you about the merits of exhausting the people's efforts, I replied: 'This is the emperor's order.' Don't you know that the emperor's order is to serve the people, but it is useless?"

"The method of taking firewood and frying salt has been practiced since ancient times. The method of drying salt requires clear weather. If the sky is clear, there will be drought. How can the stove be used for food? If it rains one day, the salt will be dried.

How can we get salt when it becomes water again? Perhaps Yun Neiguan was in Haifeng, and the practice of drying salt on Xiangshan Mountain became a proof, but do they have the shame to be flattering? I visited an old salt farmer and laughed at him."

After criticizing the method of drying salt, Wang Yushi returned to the theme: "I have personally seen that the people of the two Huaihe Rivers are suffering from labor, drought and floods, and they can't live without shouting. Since your Majesty came to power, you have been diligent, thrifty, self-denial, and vigilant to encourage the people, and all the people have praised you.

Saint Mingze was buried in the house. Can you bear to see this now? I asked the kitchen servants for help and risked my life to report: "The Holy Emperor bowed down and ruled." Why bother to think hard, perform duties on behalf of others, and serve smart ears and eyes? The loss is great by doing nothing.

Is that right? I pray to the Holy Judge."

The title book was sent directly to the cabinet, and Zhang Juzheng thought to himself: "Let's see how the emperor responds to him." He posted a yellow note: "It's like helping the stove servants."

The Chief of Ceremonies commented red: "I understand." Because the censor had words of advice to the emperor, the Chief of Ceremonies put the title book into the abbreviation of the memorial that Zhu Yijun wanted to read.

Zhu Yijun first read the abbreviation of the memorial compiled by the Supervisor of Ceremonies, and then read the original version. He drew a circle on the comment made by the Supervisor of Ceremonies. This was Zhu Yijun's version of "Shanghaiwen", which later generations called "Shanghaiwen".

Circle Reading".

...

As Wang Zhuoyu fired the first shot to counterattack the New Deal, in June, the censor heard about the incident and launched a fierce attack on everything from drying salt, passing the exam, Zhu Xizhong being crowned king, Tianshui Zhanbao was slaughtered and so on.

Yuanfu Zhang Juzheng came to have a big meal - by mid-June, there were more than forty memorials to impeach Zhang Juzheng.

In the early days of the impeachment of Zhang Juzheng, Zhu Yijun was not aware of the dynasty dispute. Because after Zhang Juzheng took office, he was asked to intervene every month - this was the method of controlling the top and bottom in the ancestral family law.

The specific operation is as follows: If Zhu Yijun wants to replace Zhang Juzheng, he only needs to select one of the monthly impeachment memorials for Zhang Juzheng and hand it over to the court. Zhang Juzheng will not be able to secure his position and will have to resign.

Of course, such memorials are not serious faults. They are usually minor problems such as Zhang Juzheng not wearing his hat neatly or coughing in front of him when he can speak. Occasionally, there are some bigger problems such as "the mansion is not as magnificent as the prince", and Zhu Yijun has to do it.

He expressed his position. For example, last year he arranged for a senior official to send two large paintings to Zhang Juzheng's home, "Mr. Zhuang's Mansion, Sense and Color". In this way, the court knew that Zhang Juzheng's holy family was still as old as before.

However, after Zhu Yijun stayed in Zhongzhong and read several books, he still came across this memorial, which means he knew that it was the first wave of counterattack by conservative forces. Zhu Yijun originally wanted to communicate with Zhang Juzheng, but he didn't mention it in several small meetings. It was a bit.

Sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, unmoved by the eight winds, Zhu Yijun calmed down and watched the changes.

On June 20th of the second year of Wanli, Nanjing Huke wrote a memorial to Yu Maoxue in Shizhong, which was the pinnacle of this "countercurrent" attack and the master of it, finally irritating both Zhang Juzheng and Zhu Yijun.

Yu Maoxue "stated five things" in the memorial, one of which is Chongdun Da. Yu Maoxue directly attacked the emperor and said: "Since your Majesty came to the emperor, he has established the rules for passing the examination and the rules for returning to office for a long time. The rules for applying for the constitution and the penalty for delaying the examination are strict.

, ministers of all sizes are responsible for their duties. However, if the ministers are overly concerned, strict administration will be harsh, and the secret of the law will be disturbed, which is not the way to cultivate vitality and maintain the general body. In the past, Gao Tao praised Emperor Shun with his broad slips, and Ji Dan became the king with Dun Da.

.May your majesty, the two kings of Xianxian, pay attention to the gentleness and restraint, stick to the general outline but avoid the redundancy, be careful about the minor flaws and forgive the small ones."

The general idea of ​​this passage is that Your Majesty, you are too strict in your examination law, and ministers and ministers cannot "cultivate their vitality to preserve their general body." Yu Maoxue also gave Zhu Yijun two positive examples: Gaotao treated his ministers, the people were very tolerant, and Duke Zhou

Tell King Cheng to be honest and tolerant in his administration.

How does Yu Maoxue want the emperor to be honest, honest and tolerant? Yu Maoxue said: "Lunqi is based on peace, but not on the purpose of exacting responsibilities. Government orders are based on loyalty and not on strictness... The common people should be lenient and strict, and they should be lenient and strict.

Government is based on harmony." The general idea is, Your Majesty, please don't say (the purpose of assigning responsibilities) that this has not been completed, and that must be done well. Everyone is working hard, but you, Old Beep, have made it very difficult for the ministers. You can relax.

Looseness is the so-called "combining leniency and severity, and harmonizing political affairs".

The second is Qin Jian E (note: an upright minister). Yu Mao’s theory: "The road of speech is clear, and the governance is critical. The masters of the Han and Tang Dynasties may stop their chariots to receive the words of a runny nose, or they may express their power to show their dignity."

Advice from ten thoughts.”

And after you, Emperor, ascend the throne, what will happen to our government? "Fruit ministers are often dismissed and denounced! Those who dare to speak out are moved to emigrate! ... May your Majesty accept others' words in vain, and seek the truth in vain.

And when it comes to condemning and banishing people, there is no need to cross-examine them because of small problems. They also beg the Ministry of Personnel to record those who are loyal and admonishing without being cruel."

In this passage, Yu Maoxue nakedly hints to the emperor, you have been fooled by Zhang Juzheng. He has driven away those who dare to speak out from your side, and quickly asked the officials to call them back. In this way, "Shengde Rihong, and

Treacherous people dare not steal."

The third is Shen Mingqi. Yu Mao's theory is that the emperor has given you a favor to the palace ministers and eunuchs Zheng Zhen, and your nephew Xuan has been appointed as the guard of thousands of households. The favor is very generous. Then you can't control it.

He asked for orders from time to time, but His Majesty agreed to his request without any discussion." Zhu Yijun saw this paragraph and said, "That was Empress Dowager Li's doing, why are you holding me on the head?"

The fourth day of warning is full of changes. Yu Maoxue has a clear picture here, directly attacking the emperor and Zhang Juzheng for changing the ancestral family law: "Poetry chants the chapter of Yao, and writings lead the ancestors. In recent years, those who build the white are dazzling, and those who write the inscriptions are selfish.

.Today a certain law is established with a certain word, and tomorrow it is stopped with a certain word; today a certain word is used to update a certain law, and tomorrow [Biquge www.biqugetv.xyz] will be renewed with a certain word. The law is updated.

, never violate the rules."

Yu Maoxue is still sensible. He did not explicitly say that the emperor changed the family law of his ancestors. He said that Zhang Juzheng, Ge Shouli, Wang Guangguang and others "showed off their strange ideas" and their suggestions and suggestions were unreliable, so he described them as "showing off their strangeness".

As for the emperor, he said, "Those who answer questions are selfish." He clearly said that he was the Supervisor of Liturgy, but in Zhu Yijun's opinion, he had already pointed his nose at the emperor and scolded him! Because Yu Maoxue immediately said, "May your Majesty give orders to all ministers and abide by the Constitution."

!”

Yu Maoxue mentioned a total of five items, and Zhu Yijun was most sensitive to the fourth item. Because it made Zhu Yijun's purpose of changing the "constitution" clear to the court during the incident, and added a new dimension to the policy of "reforming the law without saying it"

Unnecessary resistance.

What made Zhang Juzheng extremely angry was the fifth article of Yu Mao's theory, which is to guard against treason.

Yu Mao's theory: "Recently, I have seen that in a certain department, the merits of overlaying the border are often the first to be listed among the cabinet ministers, and they praise the governor. However, it is still said that planning and publicity efforts should be described. By the time the Zhuozhou Bridge is completed, the world will know that it is the Holy Mother who helps people and benefit things.

He is benevolent, and the department discusses merits and even praises the achievements of cabinet ministers and ministers of etiquette. Although the rules are still the same, the words refer to offering alms. The merits of the Duke of Zhou are indeed great, and they are all worthy of the ministers!"

Afraid that Zhu Yijun would not understand, Yu Maoxue further explained to the emperor that your sage and kindness were all used by Zhang Juzheng to put gold on his face.

"The ministers who are close to me are trying to reward me, and I am simply out of the emperor's heart. If I am greedy for heaven's merit and claim my own strength, then the wise will not be able to do it. I hope that your majesty will give orders to this department, and it is best to state the merits directly... Please give me your thanks...

.... As for the merits praised by the cabinet ministers and the service of the close ministers and bodyguards, it is a sage's sincerity and the state's canons are preserved. Especially, we should not praise them too often in order to criticize them."

Yu Maoxue was here, almost nakedly trying to drive a wedge between Zhu Yijun and Zhang Juzheng. He told Zhu Yijun that the governor had made great achievements, and he never mentioned your wise leadership, but always said it was Zhang Juzheng who "organized and planned propaganda".

No matter what happens, as long as the governor and other ministries show off their merits, they will "follow the old tradition of exaggeration and show off the achievements of ministers and officials." Yu Maoxue's entire memorial, the finishing touch is here: "My husband, Duke Zhou, has done a great job."

, all ministers should do as they should!"
