After waking up from a nightmare again, Zhang Juzheng felt that his clothes were soaked on his back. He stood up from the bed and walked silently to the window. Because the window was replaced by a glass window, he could see the bright moon outside the window even through the window.

"well!"

Staring at the stars and moons all over the sky, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but sigh again.

"I can't take that ruthless move after all!"

How many people in the world can do such ruthless tricks?

How many people will it involve?

Even though there is no answer yet, Zhang Juzheng can still imagine that once thorough investigation is made, many people will definitely be involved.

"They are too lawless!"

I am too lawless. Now I dare to kill the imperial envoy in the street. What about the future?

With his brows frowned, Zhang Juzheng's face looked extremely ugly. He sighed that those people were ruthless, but on the other hand, he didn't know what to do about this matter.

"Even if you use this matter to attack them now, it will only make them silent for a year or two, what will happen?"

In fact, there will be silence there for a year or two. Doesn’t Zhang Juzheng, who has been fighting openly and secretly in the officialdom over the years, know that those people have never been discouraged after repeated defeats. After all, all this involves their fundamental interests.

"Do you really have to kill me?"

While talking to himself, Zhang Juzheng didn't know that killing people... would only intensify the problem, but could not fundamentally solve the problem.

Killing is not the best choice unless you can kill them all, but Zhang Juzheng does not have the courage to do this, and even the emperor does not have the courage to do so.

"It's hard!"

After sighing, Zhang Juzheng stood there like this, silently looking at the stars and moons all over the sky. For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with it...

In fact, the decision was made early in the morning, but Zhang Juzheng was always a little unwilling to accept that decision. After all, this is a rare opportunity!

"The opportunity is rare..."

In the early morning, Zhang Juzheng, who woke up in the middle of the night, sat in the center of the study and was talking about this rare opportunity, but You Qi hurriedly walked in.

"Master, I've written a letter from Nanjing!"

As soon as Zhang Juzheng took out the letter and handed it over, he quickly tore it apart, then glanced carefully, and his face changed slightly for a while before he said to You Qi.

"Yu Qi, you can take a look."

As Zhang Juzheng's confidant, You Qi is often Zhang Juzheng's aide. Following the master's instructions, he took over the initiative, but just took a look and said in surprise.

"Master, this is a good thing!"

"Oh, let's hear!"

Zhang Juzheng asked without saying a word.

"Hasn't the master been worried about how to deal with this matter before? The method mentioned by Fu Zuozhou in his letter is probably the best way to calculate it."

After pondering for a moment, he continued.

"Didn't the master say before? Unless Emperor Gaozu is alive, no one can handle the matter in Jiangnan. Even Chengzu killed so many people... and did he move the capital to the capital in the end? In the final analysis, it is because most of the scholars and officials in Jiangnan are in the same spirit, either classmates, or in the same year, master and disciple, or relatives and friends. In short, one move has moved the whole body. Even if a few people are killed, it seems to be calm, but in fact they are just silent for a while and are still waiting for the opportunity. Because of this, the master is so embarrassed. Killing one person will only anger thousands of people. Killing dozens of people will only anger tens of thousands of people, and killing one move will only anger tens of thousands of people, and affect the whole body. Therefore, over the years, we have been very cautious about Jiangnan areas such as Nanzhili, but now Fu Zuozhou's method..."

Looking up at Zhang Juzheng, You Qi sneered.

"Although it is not just a knife to kill people, it is a plan to eliminate the roots. It directly uses the serious crime of "rebellion" to exil the nine tribes overseas, whether it is the old port or any other place in Southeast Asia. As long as they are thrown away from each other, how can they harm the place again? How can they cause trouble to the prime minister again?"

Compared to Zhang Juzheng's cautiousness, You Qi couldn't help but praise the beauty of this idea. Seeing that the master was silent, he said again.

"And, in this way, it will inevitably be a shocking tiger. In recent years, why did the court always write a letter to the minister and try every means to obstruct the reform? To put it bluntly, isn't it because no matter what they do, they don't have to pay a price? Even if it's a price, it's just that it's just a demotion or a rank in the border areas. What can this be? Sooner or later, they can still return the court. As long as they can defeat the master, as long as the master falls, they will immediately return the court and become an official, and they will naturally be able to make a successor, but now..."

Lighting those few sheets of paper, You Qi finally understood why Fu Zuozhou sent the letter with eight hundred miles in a hurry. This was the letter, which clearly made the master a truly unique magic weapon.

"As long as you act according to this, if someone dares to obstruct the reform in the future, you can exil them overseas directly, tens of thousands of miles away from overseas. Not to mention that there is a place full of miasma, it is just the one that has tens of thousands of miles apart. Not to mention the risks at sea, they are just the first-class ones there. Hum... From then on, it will be difficult to return to the Central Plains forever. Even if you have resentment towards the master, it will only be a complaint of tens of thousands of miles away. As for the people who stay here..."

Sneering, You Qi's eyes narrowed into a thin slit.

"With those people taking the lessons of the past, they will naturally restrain themselves a lot. Even when the master succeeds and retires in the future, it is probably too late for someone to take back the exiled person from overseas, and there will inevitably be many difficulties in the meantime, and..."

Turning his eyes to the master, You Qi said in a not-so-high voice.

"It is said that it is the chieftain of the Ming Dynasty, but in fact it is equivalent to the transformation of foreign countries. Even if the emperor's order is there, it is the same as whether it is not acceptable or not. Moreover, for the local chieftains, the people are national strength, so they will naturally try every means to obstruct, such as the storm and waves on the sea, such as the storm of the sea, or the person is dead, or they will do everything possible to drag it. In this way, even after the master succeeds, he does not need to worry about whether they will fight back in the future, and the Ming Dynasty will naturally be able to maintain peace forever!"

Listening to You Qi as he analyzed the pros and cons of it, Zhang Juzheng just nodded silently, but did not speak for a while, but was silent. For him, this was also an extremely difficult decision.

"Besides, the young man once heard from the master that Shi Zhiyuan was about the same age as the emperor, and the two seemed to be quite close. The emperor trusted him very much. In the future, the Customs and Taxation Department would earn millions of taels every year. With so much silver, it would naturally make him deeply trusted by the royal family. Will he become the emperor's favorite minister in the future and even harm the government? This is unknown. Since the master has this concern, he might as well take this opportunity to send him overseas. This happened to be his plan, and he would definitely not object to it..."

You Qi lowered his voice and said again.

"Besides, there is also a lady who can avoid future troubles if she goes overseas..."

"You Qi!"

Listening to Youqi mentioning his daughter, Zhang Juzheng's face changed slightly and he said in a deep voice.

"She is dead!"

"Yes, yes, little understand..."

You Qi's face changed slightly. Because he was Zhang Juzheng's confidant, he knew the inside story, but no matter what, the lady was dead!

He'd been dead long ago!

Seeing You Qi lowering his head and saying, Zhang Juzheng stood up, walked to the window silently, and then said slowly.

"In fact, I am not considering these issues, but exiling so many people overseas at once. I am afraid that since then, Jiangnan will probably be no longer in writing style!"

When talking about "the style of Jiangnan is not there", a glimmer flashed in Zhang Juzheng's eyes. For many years, Jiangnan controlled the southern list with its prosperous local literary style and exiled those people overseas. Naturally, Huguang and others have freed up the quota for the southern list. By then, the atmosphere in the court will definitely change greatly.

It seems that this plan is indeed beneficial to the Ming Dynasty without any harm!

"That's right. At that time, scholars from other places will naturally be grateful to the master. With their help, I believe that the master's reform will be twice the result with half the effort!"

You Qi whispered a compliment, he knew the benefits of this matter to the master, and he didn't care about the benefits of Yu Daming.

"You..."

Shaking his head, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but sigh.

"I'm afraid that by then, the people of Southern Zhili will want to eat my bones! Forget it, for a moment, this reform will always offend people. In a hundred years, I believe that everyone in the world will have public opinions!"

The master's long sigh made You Qi know that the master had made a decision. In fact, this decision was simple. After all, compared to other choices, this is indeed the easiest and the most feasible method.

"Well, send a letter to Nanjing immediately, just follow what he said in the letter!"

While nodding in agreement, Zhang Juzheng said again.

"However, it is not that easy to handle this matter. After all, so many people are exiled at once. At that time, how to send these people out and wherever they go is a troublesome. If this matter is not handled properly, I am afraid that this matter will not be able to be done in the end..."

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Juzheng ordered You Qi again.

"In the letter, tell him that if Shi Zhiyuan returns to Beijing, since he wants to get benefits from it, he always has to do his best. He came up with such an idea, how can he not help with the matter? He still has to let him do this. He wants me to be hated by the people of the world, and he cannot be outside himself!"

"Yes, Master..."

Listening to the master's words, he seemed to be still dissatisfied with Shi Yiwen, You Qi said softly as if he had thought of something.
