.It turns out that behind Xu Jie, his beloved disciple, Zhang Juzheng, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Zhang Juzheng was not as pessimistic as his teacher. Instead, he was eager to try: "The so-called king and ministers are laborious, and the sage emperor is in power. Since ancient times, the teacher should lead the ministers, strive to do it and shoulder greater responsibilities!"

Xu Jie groaned when he heard this, and still said with his back to him: "Your statement is somewhat similar to that of Gao Suqing." He remembered the last meeting of the inner neighborhood. When Xu Jie proposed to write a letter to advise the emperor together, Gao Gong also had this view. But Xu Jie was quite dissatisfied. He thought that the emperor, as the ruler of the world, was silent in the court and doing nothing, which was really disappointing.

Hearing the teacher's dissatisfaction, Zhang Juzheng whispered: "The same statement, but different ideas. The students were thinking that the emperor trusted the government now, which was a good time for the teacher to achieve great success. At this time, the students were willing to devote themselves to assisting the teacher..."

Xu Jie raised his hand and signaled him not to continue. He slowly walked to the big case and sat down. He covered his white hair on his temples with his hands. Xiao Suo said, "The teacher wants to do something, but he has too much constraints and it is difficult to move."

Zhang Juzheng knew that he was talking about the "Gao Guo and the two groups". The two restless grand scholars were already in a difficult position to regain their gap with Xu Jie. Whenever there was something wrong, they would always go against each other, which made every meeting a quarrel. Xu Jie was also detained in the oath of "Three Returns" and did not want to treat the cabinet as clerks like Yan Song, monopolizing the votes and making power. As a result, it was difficult to make decisions on major policies and laws could not be implemented. Xu Jie originally expected that the emperor could give a ruling, but he met a hand-off manager, and he always had to make a decision on his own.

As a result, when doing things now, it is better to be successful in the Jiajing Dynasty. This makes the old old master not exhausted physically and mentally, and feel quite bored?

But even in front of the teacher, Zhang Juzheng was unwilling to say bad things about Gao Gong, because his relationship with Gao Suqing has always been good. They are happy and understand each other carefully. They were originally a gentleman who made an appointment with big events. Now the reason why the two are gradually moving far away is because of their own teacher...

Zhang Ju-Just remembered the day before the death of the late emperor, Huijie suddenly asked someone to call him to Xiyuan and said to him: "You are not hesitant, you should write a will. I will give you permission to write it."

He remembered very clearly that his hands were trembling at that time, not because of nervousness, but because of excitement. Because the will was the last emperor's order, every word would be regarded as the country's major policy in the new dynasty. The person who wrote it would naturally gain a great reputation and become a world-renowned official.

prosper

While excited, Zhang Juzheng also realized that this move would offend some people, especially Gao Gong. In terms of qualifications, talent, and rules, Gao Gong is more suitable for writing than him. The more he is, the more he is, it will obviously cause Gao Gong's anger.

he

He also realized that this was the pit that the teacher dug for himself... he just didn't want him and Gao Gong to continue to get tired of it... But weighing the pros and cons, he still jumped without hesitation. After all, the temptation of drafting a will is too great. Whether he can enter the cabinet as soon as possible depends on this.

No

Despite this, he still doesn't want to stand opposite Gao Gong. Even if he excludes his past relationship, Gao Gong is really unable to afford to be hurt.

In fact, Zhang Juzheng had also experienced this situation of fighting between two tigers, but his opponent at that time was Yan Song, who was the target of the treacherous and slander. Therefore, no matter what method or means it was to fight justice and evil, and there was no psychological burden.

But Gao Gong is different from Yan Qin. In addition to being a minister of the current saint, Gao Suqing showed extremely outstanding talents when serving in the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel. Wherever he went, he was shocked and could hit the current problems every time he spoke, and he could correct them. However, he could mercilessly eliminate all the shortcomings of the officialdom that no one could change for more than 150 years. He was a recognized talent in the court and the public.

In addition to serving the country with ulterior motives, he never acts favorably and accepts bribes, and is also an impeccable honest minister. When it comes to diligence, integrity, integrity, courage, and ministers in the court are no more noble. Fighting against such people, no matter how much they win or lose, it will be a great harm to their reputation.

Zhang Juzheng's concerns were also Xu Jie's concerns... directly dealing with Gao Gong would bring a big name, but he was really unbearable. He continued to oppose himself, so Mr. Xu would hint on the students and ask him to find a way to help him get rid of this big trouble.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Juzheng obviously did not want to go against Gao Gong. This made Mr. Xu feel discouraged. It seemed that he had been spoiled by him and dared to pretend to be confused with him. Xu Jie felt a little disgusted and sighed: "Taiyue, I am old! I am sixty-four years old this year, and I cannot make up my mind and make it through my strength. I really don't have the energy to show my grand plan like you young people. In fact, I have long had the idea of ​​hanging a seal and returning to my hometown. But if this statement is made, it will lead to slander, and cause a disaster." He paused and sighed: "I can only suppress my original heart and force it will be ruthless. But I dare not say how long it lasts, but I hope you can take on the responsibilities and take my mantle as soon as possible!"

"Teacher..." Zhang Juzheng heard that he had said this, and he couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb again.

I can do it, I suppressed my helplessness, so I had to nod and said, "Yes,

, You don’t have to say, students know how to do it…”

"Well..." Xu Jie then let out a long breath and said: "With this sentence of you, I will

Rest assured.”

Zhang Juzheng sighed again in his heart, thinking that he, the Xujie disciple, was lucky, who else could he be

Do you know, what about your sadness and helplessness?

Leaving Danei and walking out of Chang'an Street, Zhang Juzheng got into the sedan chair and served his family on the side.

Qi, hurried over and reported in a low voice: "Shen Mo's disciple, I went to Gao Gong's house today.

Zhang Juzheng's eyes stagnated and did not say a word when he heard this. Until the curtain was lowered, he shook his head slowly and whispered: "It's Shen Zhuoyan, I'm not as good as me!" There was not much Ni Xi in his words, but instead he was envious and liberated... In this officialdom woven with the relationship between disciples and old officials, it was too difficult to maintain his independence and even establish a school. So Shen Mo would rather ask Gao Gong for understanding than join Xu Jie's command, just to keep his hard-earned independence... After all, no matter how close he is to Gao Gong, he is just an ally, and is far more than being a student for others.

But Shen Mo can be independent, but he cannot, because Shen Mo has been in the wind and rain, has gone through hardships and worked hard for more than ten years, and has already had his own power. Although Zhang Juzheng debuted nine years earlier than Shen Mo, he has been protected and cultivated by his teacher like a greenhouse flower. Although he has lost many ups and downs, he cannot form his own power. Once he loses the support of his teacher, he will be nothing.

"Those who know me say I am worried, and those who don't know me say I am worried!" Zhang Juzheng sighed and said to himself, "Let's go, people always have their own path, and hope to be together in different ways. Ba!"

The sedan chair was lifted up and moved forward steadily.

After the fifth day of the court, Xu Jie finally couldn't help but kneel outside the Ganqing Palace for an hour, and saw Emperor Longqing in his eyes. When he saw the old assistant being helped up, his legs were shaking and he could no longer stand. Longqing was quite dissatisfied and said, "Why are you always doing this? I have a lot of trust in the people who are considerate and capable, and I have a good plan for the country. Government affairs are planned and handled by you and Gaoge Lao, and I don't have to ask for my decree for everything... I get a lot of etiquette every day. I'm too tired of the ministers, so I don't think it's necessary to do it every day, right?"

"Your Majesty..." Seeing that the emperor had abandoned his power as if he was worn out, Xu Jie was so depressed that he wanted to curse people, and suppressed his anger and said, "The morning court is the ancestral system. Except for the death of the royal relatives and important officials, he could stop the court to express condolences, so he should not have been exempted from court. In the palace, Emperor Xiaozong did not sleep all night and was in a daze. He only begged to stop the court for one day. He also had to carefully discuss the cabinet before he agreed to avoid the court for one day. Wu Temple, the Shi Temple broke this ancestral system, which damaged the reputation of thousands of years and made future generations lose respect!" Seeing the emperor silent, Xu Jie advised again: "The one who regretted the deepest repentance of the late emperor is 'The dynasty's precepts were early. Since you promised to change the previous dynasty's political affairs, diligently love the people, and regain the rituals. Now that the pride is less than a month, you have stopped the court one after another. What do you think about the world? How can the historians write?!"

This was already very serious, but Xu Qilei was just trying his best today. Seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, he took off his official hat and kowtowed heavily and said, "As the prime minister, the old minister, cannot cause the king Yao and Shun, is the greatest dereliction of duty. He can only resign from His Majesty and retreat to the wise!"

The emperor had no choice but to get up quickly, help him up with his own hands and said, "Yuan Weng, don't go to me. I'll go to court, can't I go to court?

"Really?" Xu Jie said in disbelief.

If it weren't for the former Ganqing Palace, I would have thought that this was Master Meng's discipline, and he was always fleeing.

Children who are studying.

"I promise not to do it?" Long Qing nodded helplessly, changed his mind and raised his own wishes.

Ask for: "But there is a condition."

"Prince, please speak." Xu Jiexin said, as long as it is not too much, I will agree to you anyway.

"I went to court to go to court, but I don't understand those state affairs. In order to avoid misleading things, I will attend the court meeting in the future.

If the official submits a memorial, the assistant minister will reply on my behalf." Long Qing put forward his wonderful thoughts that he had been thinking about for a long time.

"No!" Xu Jie almost jumped up and shouted: "The country has a eldest king, how can he allow his ministers to accept his subordinates?

"Treat the emperor as a puppet is something that the master of a traitor does, and even Ge Lao Xu can't come.

"But I really can't do it!" Long Qing was not anxious and spread his hands, saying, "What should I agree?

If you shouldn't agree, you really can't understand. Yuan Ru doesn't want to make state affairs a mess."

"..." Xu Jie was bored for a while and made his last effort and said, "The emperor is not sure.

I won’t reply at first. After the morning court, I will move to Xihua Palace and consult the cabinet ministers, and then make a sage!”

It was enough to go to the morning court, and he had to go to cram school after finishing his work. It was a life-threatening person. How could Longqing accept it? But he didn't refute Mr. Xu, so he sat there without saying anything, nor did he say nothing, but his heart flew back to the warm and fragrant jade that had already flown back to the harem.

Seeing the emperor like this, Xu Jie knew that it would be too late to have a haste, so he had to take a step back: "It's not particularly important o!), the cabinet plans to vote first, but if there is a major event, the emperor needs to move west.

Huayi r1

"Okay..." Long Qing agreed unwillingly, and after that, he stood up and said, "Old Ge"

Is nothing wrong?"

"Ah, it's okay." Xu Jie couldn't react.

"Then you go and do your business first, I'm back too." After that, Xu Jie didn't wait for him to leave without waiting for him to leave.

lock up

So he went back first, as if something was hooking his soul.

Looking at the emperor's figure coming and going, Xu Jie shook his head helplessly and sighed, but no matter what, the emperor had been on the morning court again, so he tried his best to persuade him to do his duty as an old minister.

Longqing was still in line with his promise, and the second time he died, the morning court recovered.

I came to court early when I was silent, and I saw Gao Gong's sedan chair parked in front of Xi'an Gate, as if waiting for someone.

He understood it, so he got out of the sedan chair and walked to Gao Gong's sedan chair. 3!t said, "Gei Master."

The curtain of the sedan chair trembled slightly, and after a suffocating moment, it opened, revealing Gao Gong and Shao Zhang's old face with an awkward expression: "Hahaha... It's Jiangnan, it's early."

"It's so early." Silence naturally held the curtains, so that Gao Gong could get off the sedan chair, and smiled: "It looks good today."

"Oh, is it, hehe..." Gao Gong got off the sedan chair and walked towards the Wumen Gate with him. On the way, he looked silent several times, his lips whispered several times, and finally said in a low voice: "Calm down and think about it, it's really impossible that you are leaking secrets."

"It's really not." Chen∽ said with a smile.

"I'm really sorry for what happened that day..." Gao Gong said sincerely: "I'm just that."

If you have a bad temper, you can't control your Ziluo when you get angry. Please take more responsibility in Jiangnan."

"Where is Mr. Lu?" Chen Mo hurriedly said: "I admire the true nature of the current affairs and people."

The louder he flattered, the more Gao Gong felt that he was not charming. When he was about to reach the Meridian Gate, he patted the silent shoulder and said, "Anyway, I'm sorry to you. Let me help you a little later." After that, he bowed deeply to him, and even silent could not stop him.

At this time, the officials had already come, but they all saw this scene in their eyes and thought to themselves: "Which is this? Are the generals and ministers harmonious?" No matter what they thought, the rumors of the stern disagreement completely disappeared.

Xu Jie also saw it) couldn't help but shake his head slightly, whispering = "No body, you are one by one". But his heart was overturned and he thought to himself: 'Taiyue, you miscalculated this time...' In fact, the cause of the whole thing was that Zhang Juzheng heard from the palace that the emperor wanted to establish a crown prince. After discussing with Xu Jie, he decided to take the lead and write a letter to achieve the goal of killing three birds with one stone: r: a improve Juzheng's position and create momentum for him to enter the cabinet as soon as possible; he could play a subtle discord between Gao Gong and Shen Mo, so as not to become a good friend; he had no choice but to return to the teacher's camp.

In fact, Xu Jie's psychology is very subtle. You should know that the teacher-student relationship in the officialdom is equivalent to the father-son relationship in life. In addition to the teacher's protection and help, students are the continuation of the teacher's political life. Therefore, there is a saying that "one day is a teacher and a father for life". As a teacher, you will inevitably regard students as your forbidden body and do not allow weeds to grow on this piece of land.

Besides, parents and teachers sometimes don’t realize how biased he is. He still thinks he is good at Chen Si... Otherwise, how could Zhang Juzheng be a third-grade senior brother, but Chen Si has already become a second-grade senior brother?

This is a typical robber logic, and he took Jiajing's cultivation of silence for himself. But Xu Jie himself did not realize that he was still sad that Chen Shu and Gao Gong were getting closer and closer. So after receiving the news from Zhang Juzheng, he decided to use the same trick again, imitating the original separation between Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, and also created a crack between Shen Mo and Gao Gong.

Of course he knew that Chen Si would guess who did it, but Xu Jie was not worried, because the bond between teacher and student relationship was something you couldn't get away with. Besides, based on Xu Jie's understanding of Chen Si, he knew that he was a very practical person. Once he found that there was no way else, he would definitely come back to find himself. Master Xu had planned... At that time, he would not say a few words to him, and then comfort him with Nirvana, so that he could feel that 'there is only the teacher in the world'. Finally, he and Director Zhang held their hands forehand and entered the cabinet together. Then the little resentment of the silent silence would definitely be like the snow in the spring, which melted in a flash.

The result was different from the idea. His first goal was perfectly achieved. Zhang Juzheng took the lead in proposing to establish a crown prince, which was considered to have planted a good relationship in the emperor, imperial concubine, and even the future crown prince Shaoli. The benefits were not just to enter the cabinet? The second one also achieved it at first. Gao Gong's violent temper really broke up with Shen Mo in public; but the third one was only halfway through, and it developed in the opposite direction. He also overthrew the second one after another. After a brief chaos, he became stubborn and became more stubborn. He would rather put away his self-esteem and go to Gao Gong to repair his relationship than to come to him, a teacher, to surrender.

If this behavior had been a childish impulse ten years ago, but today ten years later is very spicy and even vicious. I have long seen that the relationship between teachers and students is mutual. Although students cannot oppose teachers, how can teachers harm their students?

For example, even if Xu Jie hates silence in his heart, he cannot talk to others like a resentful woman, and he cannot deal with him openly and secretly before he is sorry for himself. He is not as good as a teacher, right?
