Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Don't let His Majesty go wrong anymore!

Zhang Haogu knew that the core and backbone of the new party must have discussed something in private, so he came to him.

It is true that the New Party was established by Zhang Haogu, and it is true that the Datong Academy was also established by Zhang Haogu, but Zhang Haogu cannot unify everyone’s thinking after all. Whether it is the New Party or the Datong Academy, people come here for their ideals. Yes, but it was also for his own fame and fortune.

Everyone has their own ideas and interests, and Zhang Haogu is just integrating this force.

Now everyone in the New Party seems to have reached a consensus. Are these officials the only ones involved, or are the local governors, generals of the new army, etc. all involved?
Zhang Haogu's expression was uncertain, during the period when he was dismissed, it seems that His Majesty is resorting to tricks frequently, and there are turbulent storms outside.

As if thinking of something, Zhang Haogu took a sip of tea: "You guys, what are you planning to do?"

"Come to me in the middle of the night, disregarding your own safety, disregarding His Majesty's concerns, just to tell me these things?"

Zhang Ruitu smiled, and said proactively: "Since you were dismissed as Prime Minister, Your Majesty has exercised power without any scruples, and he doesn't care about the prosperous foundation that I have accumulated through ten years of hard work. Without you sitting at the center, not only the officials are trembling in their work, but the local government is even more apprehensive."

"At present, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Sun Ge is always capable, but he can't quell the turmoil when he sits in the cabinet. Sun Ge can't do the position of chief assistant, and I can't do it. You still have to come in." , so that the people of the world can feel at ease, and everyone can feel at ease."

Cui Chengxiu said: "Governor Wang from the south of the Yangtze River has joined forces with the governors of various provinces to submit papers to His Majesty. Everyone must speak up and ask His Majesty to invite you out of the mountain."

Sun Qifeng and Zhu Shunshui also followed suit: "Yes, after you were dismissed, not only the local industry and commerce declined, the stock market was in turmoil, but also there were many prying eyes in the borderlands, especially in Liaodong, where Huang Taiji kept making small moves. The sign of knocking on the pass. Now only you can calm down the turmoil when you come out of the mountain."

Seeing the crowd crowding him so much, Zhang Haogu shook his head and sighed: "Oh, you are going to push me to the fire pit. Your Majesty just dismissed my official position not long ago, and you are going to push me up again , Have you ever thought about what His Majesty would think and do?"

Gu Yanwu couldn't help but said: "Duke Ming, you can't let your majesty do things at will anymore. It's been hard for the world to live in peace for a few years, and the people have lived in peace for a few years. Daming can't stand it anymore. We're not just for ourselves, For you, but also for the people of the world."

Zhang Haogu tasted the tea indifferently, not wavering at all by everyone's words: "You will say, how can I perish without me in this world?"

"If it's just these words, don't say any more, I'm already a grassroots person, and I don't want to get involved in political affairs."

Everyone's faces were depressed when they heard this, but Lu Xiangsheng asked unceremoniously: "What was the purpose of Baorui's blunt admonition for the people of Sichuan and Shu?"

Zhang Haogu said without hesitation: "Of course it is for our original intention and philosophy."

Lu Xiangsheng asked again: "Then Baorui didn't think about how much trouble this matter would cause? Why didn't the students and officials test His Majesty's opinion first? If there were students and officials who went to try it first, it would be better to have a There is no room for relaxation, so it will not reach this point."

Zhang Haogu retorted: "We will still reach this point, as long as our original intention of the idea remains unchanged, we will always reach this point."

"For such a major event for the country and the people, there are countless passionate students and censors throwing their heads and blood, but what are they doing for? It's not for our ideals, for the family, the country, the world, and the world. !"

"Those enthusiastic students still have a future and a future. Their ideals have not yet been realized. They should not be caught in this matter, and this matter is not something they can get involved in."

"I'm the head of the Datong Academy, and the chief assistant of the cabinet. If I don't take the lead in this kind of thing, what right do I have to say to let the students and officials go to the front?"

"For such a big event, I have a duty to do it, and I should take the lead."

Zhang Ruitu got up and said, "Originally, you could sit on the high platform and remain indifferent, instead of going off in person, because the reason for doing it in person is due to your duty, but now the world is in turmoil, and all officials and colleagues are in panic. Seeing that this peaceful and prosperous world that we have created with great difficulty is about to suffer Twists and turns, if you don't stand up at this time, Baorui, are you still expecting someone taller to take care of the collapse?"

Lu Xiangsheng also said: "Yes, at this time, Baorui, shouldn't you stand up for our ideals? Back then you could offend Tianyan for the people of Sichuan and Shu, so why can't you stand up again today?"

Zhang Haogu was silent for a long time before he said: "Has the matter reached this point?"

Zhang Ruitu sighed, and said slowly: "Baorui, today I ask you to call you Baorui."

"Now Baorui, you are not only alone, you are not only behind the Linqing Zhang family, but behind you are the entire New Party, New Army, Datong Academy, and even merchants, workers, and common people in the world. Your every move, not only affect the family."

"Your Majesty is so decisive in dealing with you, so who of us will be spared?"

"Perhaps you don't know, Baorui, during this period of time, His Majesty has dismissed dozens of colleagues from the New Party. The officials of the new party ordered them to be imprisoned. The governors of the provinces are fine, but dozens of people have been replaced at the prefecture and county levels. This is clearly aimed at the new party."

"At the same time, Fang Yunchu from Nanjing also sent a message that His Majesty has ordered a group of generals to be dismissed and imprisoned to replace them. As for Zhili, the new army of the nine towns has also been mobilized. But the captains and captains of the towns, and even the bureaucrats have been replaced.”

"The people of the new party are already in panic, and everyone is about to lose their hold. No one knows what His Majesty will do. Previously, you were sitting in the government to implement new policies and new laws. Your Majesty governed, and the world is still safe; but now that you are gone, Your Majesty immediately changed, became extremely ruthless, and if he moved, he would be dismissed and killed, the world cannot stand such a toss by Your Majesty."

"This is not just about you alone. If His Majesty moved you, he must move other people, because we are all the New Party, and you are the leader of the New Party. You have been deposed by His Majesty. Is there any reason for us to survive? Who in the whole new party is not afraid, who is not worried that one day Tiqi will come and take down the whole family?"

"I've worked so hard for His Majesty's world, for Daming, but now it's hard to come to a good end. Is there such a reason for the world? We don't want to rebel, we just want to restore the same as before, and you will be the chief assistant." , Your Majesty is still Your Majesty."

Cui Chengxiu even said: "Ming Gong, you are the leader, you are the head of Datong Academy, and the leader of the new party. Without you in the front, the new party will disband sooner or later. At that time, everyone will be in danger and overwhelmed. Who can do it?" What about being alone?"

"Now that His Majesty is attacking you and you are gone, who can protect us and take into account our feelings?"

"Our original intention is for all the people in the world, for the great harmony of the world. Your Majesty's actions today are no longer the wise and benevolent Majesty. Your Majesty only cares about his royal majesty and his family's world!"

"You have been in harmony with your majesty and ministers for 11 years, and your majesty has always trusted you. Now, for the majesty of the royal family, for the sake of his family, your officials have been dismissed, and the friendship between the monarch and ministers has been ignored. Then how should we deal with ourselves? We are afraid .”

Lu Xiangsheng went on to say: "I didn't want to get involved, but during this period of time, people in the world were in panic, the stock market plummeted, industry and commerce were in decline, workers were laid off, factories shut down, everyone was selling stocks and hoarding gold and silver, and the economy of the entire Ming Dynasty was going backwards. .”

"Everywhere is overwhelmed. Cao Wenzhao from Mongolia, Huang Degong from Jiaozhi, and Zhao Yuqi from Dongying all faintly sensed that something was wrong. They all wrote to me asking what happened. They couldn't send you a letter directly. They were afraid of causing trouble, so they had to send Give me a secret letter, but I can't say anything."

"Wang Wenyan wants to join the governors of various places to file a letter. I can't stop this matter. This is their own decision. I'm afraid you can't stop it either."

Huang Zongxi got up and bowed deeply: "Minggong, you taught me to wait for the common people in the world, for the common people, and my college students follow you and strive for our ideals. It's good in the north these years, but how easy are the classmates and colleagues in the south?"

"Obviously knowing that the new policies and laws are good, His Majesty protects the old bureaucrats, corrupt dignitaries, and allows the people in the south to fall into misery."

"The matter of Sichuan and Shu is not an exception. It is the three provinces in the southwest, and the true appearance of the people in the seven provinces of the south! Does your majesty know what those old parties look like? But what checks and balances are there, and what is the imperial power? Tens of thousands of people have nothing!"

"Minggong, in these years, how many of our students and colleagues have struggled for our ideals in the south but returned sadly, how many people died in the south, and how many people suffered disasters because of it?"

"Your Majesty only cares about his family, and he doesn't care about the people of the world at all! It can't go on like this. If you don't stand up, how can we unite and maintain the new policies and laws?"

Zhang Ruitu also got up and bowed down: "Baorui, no, Mr. Ming, you have to stand up."

Zhu Shunshui, Sun Qifeng, Cui Chengxiu, Gu Yanwu and others also got up and bowed down: "Duke Ming, come out of the mountain."

Lu Xiangsheng also got up and bowed down: "Baorui, come out of the mountain, whether it's the new party or the new army, the world really can't live without you."

Seeing so many people bowing down in front of him, Zhang Haogu finally let out a long sigh: "Things in the world are nothing more than these, looking at it now, it seems that there is no tall person other than me. When it comes to axiom, conscience, righteousness, and ideals, how can I avoid shrinking back?"

"This is the idea, and the people of justice are here, so I should go head-on."

Everyone said in unison: "Duke Ming is highly righteous!"

After everyone left, only Zhang Haogu was left sitting in the study, looking at the flickering candlelight in the kerosene lamp. Zhang Haogu thought about Zhu Youxiao and the letters sent from various places. He had to admit in the end that Zhu Youxue is still suitable for research, not for being an emperor.

Looking at the bright moon outside the window, that bright moon disk has been hanging on the land of China for thousands of years. From Yanhuang Chiyou to Yaoshun Yutang, the bright moon has shone brightly in Qin, Han, Tang and Song Dynasties, and now it still shines on the mountains and rivers of Daming. The world rises and falls, dynasties rise and fall.
Finally couldn't help but sighed, Zhang Haogu said quietly: "What happened in the Six Dynasties, it's just a family plan"

The next day, Zhu Youxiao went up to the court and looked at the silent officials. Zhu Youxiao's face was gloomy, and he threw down several papers, which shocked all the officials in the palace.

"Humph!"

"How many months?!"

"You guys can't come up with anything. The stock market has been turbulent for several months, and everyone is selling. When did Ming's stock market become so fragile? Don't you have an idea?!"

"A lot of papers have come out from all over the country, saying that factories are closed, workers are unemployed, the market is sluggish, and everywhere is in depression."

"How long has it been? My Daming has become like this!"

"Could it be that this Emperor's Palace is full of mediocre ministers?!"

Seeing Zhu Youxiao's anger, all the officials knelt down one after another: "I will wait for death!"

Zhu Youxiao took a deep breath, and smiled angrily: "It seems that my Tianqi Dynasty, although it is said to be a prosperous age, has only a handful of capable ministers and officials."

"I know what some people think. They just want to sit on the sidelines, watch me be in a hurry, and watch my jokes."

"But I'm telling you, my Ming Dynasty, the apocalypse is prosperous, the world must be peaceful, my Ming Dynasty will not be chaotic, and I will not be chaotic!"

"Some people think that without him, Da Ming will fail, but this Daming can do without anyone, I have plenty of talents!"

"I'll let you wait and see how I can make Daming more prosperous!"

After the court was over, all the officials left one by one. Many people looked at each other, obviously they had made a decision, and Qian Qianyi couldn't help but sigh when he saw Sun Chengzong's frowning face. Why can't your majesty understand? He is right, but he is really not good at governing the world.

The current situation reminds Qian Qianyi of the early days of the Wanli Dynasty. When Zhang Juzheng was assisted in the administration, the Ming Dynasty reformed the bureaucracy and prospered. The government was clear and the army could fight, but after Zhang Juzheng died, the Wanli Emperor released himself after taking power and liquidated Zhang Juzheng. They ransacked their homes and seized gifts, their family members were starved to death and exiled, and Zhang Juzheng was almost opened up and his corpse was flogged. Abandoned.

How does today's situation resemble the situation of that day?

They are all governed by the emperor's teachers, the monarch and his ministers have been in harmony for more than ten years, both are implementing new laws and training new armies, and all are dominated by one party.
But Zhang Ju died suddenly due to overwork, while Zhang Haogu is still alive and well.

Emperor Wanli waited for Zhang Juzheng to die before mobilizing. Why is His Majesty in such a hurry?

Obviously, not only one person thought of the similarity between today's situation and the situation of the New Deal in the early Wanli Dynasty. Would you be a wooden man if you didn't see Huang Liji and Qiao Yunsheng?

Sun Chengzong is interested in doing things, but can he play with the New Deal?
Qian Qianyi sighed, shook his head and left, the world is his own, can he control what he wants to do?
And Zhu Youxiao did his best to deal with the government affairs, directing the court and the local government to deal with the current panic situation, but Zhu Youxiao desperately used what he had learned from Zhang Haogu, and even the emperors who had studied these years. It was dealt with with mental tricks and knowledge, but in the end it was found to be of no avail.

The situation, which was already difficult to support, became worse as Zhu Youxiao personally handled these government affairs. The stock market plummeted completely. Common people and businessmen couldn't stop selling stocks. Factories all over the country closed one after another, and a large number of workers lost their jobs. At the same time, merchants did not dare to do business, all industries were depressed, and the bustling cities became barren visible to the naked eye.

Zhu Youxiao tried his best to deal with political affairs, but he was still unable to deal with these matters. In the end, Zhu Youxiao himself was exhausted physically and mentally, and he didn't know what to do.

Sometimes Zhu Youxiao couldn't help asking himself, whether it's a new policy or a new law, why can't he change it?

I am the emperor of Ming Dynasty, the Ninth Five-Year Lord, how can there be things in this world that I can't handle?

Did he not kill enough people, or did he not work hard enough?
Finally, at the court meeting another day, after Zhu Youxiao was furious again, some officials came out and said, "Your Majesty, I have this report."

Seeing that someone finally stood up, Zhu Youxiao breathed a sigh of relief: "Sure."

The official bowed and said: "Your Majesty, today's turmoil in the world is rooted in the turmoil of people's hearts. The root cause lies in Mr. Zhang. If you want to calm the turmoil in the world, you must ask Mr. Zhang to come out of the mountain."

Zhu Youxiao's face darkened instantly, Mr. Zhang?

Is Zhang Haogu? !
Now that the world is in chaos, does he think it is necessary for Zhang Haogu to come out?

Isn't he not as good as Zhang Haogu?

You are the emperor yourself!

This person is Zhang Haogu's confidant, he came to mock me!
For a moment, Zhu Youxiao had murderous intentions towards this person, but Zhu Youxiao still maintained his superficial calm: "Oh, so, now that Zhang Haogu doesn't come out of the mountain, my great Ming will be in turmoil?"

Soon another official stood up: "Your Majesty, what Master Li said is very true. Now only Mr. Zhang can't do it. Please also order Mr. Zhang to go out of the mountain to assist His Majesty, so as to reproduce the scene of kings, sages, ministers and virtuous people of that day, and reopen the Great Ming Dynasty." Prosperity."

Immediately afterwards, officials of the New Party stepped forward one by one, saying that only Zhang Haogu could stabilize the situation if he came out of the mountains.

With so many new party officials standing up, Zhu Youxiao's face has changed. Shouldn't the new party listen to itself?Why do these people stand up to support Zhang Haogu? !
There is also Qian Qianyi, who is useless. Why do officials from the Ministry of Officials stand up? !
Apparently, Zhu Youxiao didn't realize that his actions of letting go of himself after monopolizing power during this period of time have made everyone in the officials at risk, and the new party is even more chilling.

Looking at these people who stood up, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Etiquette, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Industry all stood up, and even the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment came out!

Zhu Youxiao's face was extremely ugly, this is forcing the palace!

Do you really think you dare not kill? !
Without the new party, I still have a new army!
Just as he was about to issue an order for Jin Yiwei to take all these traitorous ministers, Lu Xiangsheng and Zhang Ruitu also stood up: "Minister, please give an order to let Mr. Zhang go out of the mountain."

Seeing that both Lu Xiangsheng and Zhang Ruitu stood up, Zhu Youxiao's face changed completely: "Do you even think that the two elders think so?"

Lu Xiangsheng said: "Returning to Your Majesty, not only the two of us, but also memorials from various places, please read them."

Then Lu Xiangsheng took out a stack of memorials and handed them over to Zhu Youxiao from Wang Tiqian.

Zhu Youxiao looked at the signatures of these memorials: Yuan Yingtai, governor of Shandong, Zhou Jinyong, governor of Henan, Yuan Chonghuan, governor of southern Liaoning, Cao Wenzhao, governor of Mongolia, Wang Wenyan, governor of Jiangnan, Huang Degong, governor of Jiaozhi, Huang Liqing, governor of Hunan, Shi Kefa, governor of Gansu and Shanxi, Zhili governor Governor Tan Yong
Zhu Youxiao's face had become extremely gloomy, and the hall of Huangji suddenly became extremely silent. After a long time, Zhu Youxiao said slowly: "I, yes."
