Editing of the ten loyal ministers and the emperors standing up

Chapter 129 Death of Hai Rui! (5000 words in one, too busy today to separate)

After Xu Jie was deposed, he lived at home. Hai Rui did not give preferential treatment to the Xu family when he pursued him, and Zhang Juzheng even attacked his own teacher.

Xu Jie was stunned!

In addition to the emperor, the largest landowner in the Ming Dynasty was the Xu family!

In Xu Jie's eyes, he was the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty who he carefully cultivated and cultivated, and was his best student!

The other one was the "culprit" whom he had tried to save.

But instead of repaying their kindness, the two of them joined forces to persecute themselves. Isn't this a white-eyed wolf? ?

Zhang Juzheng: Teacher, in order to implement my policies, I will not hesitate even if I am an enemy of the world!

Hai Rui: Yes, yes, Lao Zhang is right, I will firmly implement the court's strategy!
The executive order was carried out with great momentum, and the subordinate officials were afraid to carry it out incorrectly. Some powerful people even ran to other places to escape.

Some traitors often take the opportunity to expose and complain, and from time to time, people from aristocratic families are falsely accused and wronged.

The redundant postage fees were also reduced, and most of the scholar-bureaucrats who passed through Hai Rui's jurisdiction were not well supplied with supplies, so there were more and more complaints!

"???"

"Who is Hai Rui? He criticizes scholar-bureaucrats so harshly?"

"The carriage and horse expenses are not reimbursed? Then will our officials want to travel in the future?"

"A harsh government is as fierce as a tiger! How can we be officials? We are actually asked to pay for it ourselves. It is really abominable!"

"Oh, I thought that after becoming an official, I would be able to live a good life, but this damn Hai Rui has made my family pay so much more tax. Why is he so protective of those muddy legs?"

A group of officials sighed, and the local powerful showed their anger. Finally, under the handover of power and interests, everyone finally reached a consensus!
Hai Rui, we must drive him away, otherwise we powerful landowners will not have a good life!
[In the winter of the third year of Longqing's reign, they all told Shuhua that Hai Rui was pedantic and slow and did not know how to govern. He should be placed in a leisurely position in Nanjing. 】

Emperor Muzong of the Ming Dynasty disapproved and shelved the memorial to impeach Hai Rui. He even issued a special edict to commend Hai Rui!

However, the memorials to impeach Hai Rui came like snowflakes, and countless officials came up with a slew of accusations!
Soon after, Dai Fengxiang impeached Hai Rui for harboring traitors, being a corrupt scholar-bureaucrat, and causing chaos in government, so Hai Rui was reassigned to the Nanjing Grain Reserve.

Hai Rui had been in charge of Wu for only half a year.

The social atmosphere has been greatly changed, and the people have been greatly benefited from it. Those who are truly good to the people are remembered in their hearts.

When the common people heard that Hai Rui had been dismissed from his post, they shouted and cried on the roads. Every family painted a statue of Hai Rui to worship him.

On Hai Rui's way to leave his post, countless people walked along the street to see him off, and the sound of crying could not be heard. This scene made Hai Rui feel a little distracted.

He saw it in Chun'an County!

He saw it in Xingguo County!

Then it’s in Yingtian!
If Hai Rui, as the rumors say, is just trying to gain fame and has no ability, how would he be qualified to be called Hai Qingtian?
Even his political opponents are like tigers swallowing the sky and have nothing to say. Zhang Juzheng still has many crimes that can be punished, but Hai Rui does not. Hai Rui is so clean that he is incompatible with this society and is a bit out of touch!
[In the first year of Wanli, as the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Juzheng came online. Zhang Juzheng presided over the state affairs. He also disliked Hai Rui and ordered the censor to inspect Hai Rui.

The censor went to the mountain to inspect. Hai Rui killed chickens and cooked dishes to entertain the censor. The houses were deserted and simple, so the censor left with a sigh.

Zhang Juzheng was afraid of Hai Rui's seriousness and stubbornness. Chinese and foreign officials recommended him many times, but ultimately did not appoint him. 】

Zhang Juzheng looked at his men and sighed:

"Why don't I know the name of Hai Gong? But he is so clean that there is no sand in his eyes.

I don't want to meet Haigong's swordsmen, I regret them and sigh with regret! "

Zhang Juzheng and Hai Rui did not have much hatred. After Zhang Juzheng died in the 10th year of Wanli, Hai Rui wrote:
"Working for the sake of the country, but useless for the sake of one's own life!"

Hai Rui was so sad that he personally wrote a letter to Emperor Wanli to stop persecuting the family of the First Assistant. Although Hai Rui and Zhang Juzheng were not close friends, they were not enemies either.

Just like two Ming Dynasty geniuses passing directly by each other,
The meteors did not collide with each other, they just emitted their own light and illuminated the entire China!
Zhang Juzheng and Hai Rui cannot be compared, not because one of them is better than the other. This is like asking a football player if he has the confidence to defeat his opponent on the basketball court?

[In the winter of the tenth year of Wanli, Ming Shenzong Zhu Yijun always valued Hai Rui's reputation, and in the first month of the following year he called Hai Rui to be the censor of Nanjing Youqiandu.

On the way to his appointment, he was changed to the right minister of the Nanjing Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Hai Rui was already 72 years old at the time. Shang Shu said that he was old and dying and was willing to follow the advice of the ancients! 】

Above the sky, the aging Hai Rui opened the dilapidated wooden door, put on his official robe and strode out!
An old servant asked:

"Your Excellency, you are already in your seventies. You should be enjoying family happiness and taking care of yourself until your old age. Why do you need to remonstrate with your corpse?"

Hai Rui's turbid eyes looked in the direction of the capital. The 72-year-old man was very depressed. The old man just said in a calm tone:
"Your Majesty and the imperial court can still use me, and the people can still use me, and that's enough!"

Because Hai Rui was too upright and invincible, he could only be squeezed out by the materialistic officialdom and could not really do anything for the people of the world.

Hai Rui's whipping method was the best, but Zhang Juzheng, who did not want to be separated from the Ming Dynasty's bureaucracy, was afraid of Hai Rui's outrightness and did not dare to entrust him with important tasks and abandoned his idle post.

Hai Rui has been idle at home for 12 years. The fact is that only a capable and upright official like Hai Rui is in charge, and the whip law can be implemented well!

The fact is that during his six-month tenure, the One-whip Law was implemented very well. After he left, the One-whip Law soon became ineffective.

With the death of Zhang Juzheng, the government and people disappeared!

[In the 15th year of Wanli's reign, Hai Rui fell ill and became ill due to overwork. Coupled with the suppression by political opponents in the officialdom, Hai Rui's emaciated body could no longer bear it. 】

In the eyes of the Ming Dynasty, Hai Rui was an honest and good official, but a useless official.
The biggest use is to erect memorial arches, but those corrupt officials in the officialdom who are scheming and bending the law for personal gain are all useful to the country and are useful corrupt officials.

The last fig leaf of Ming Dynasty was finally ruthlessly torn apart!
With the cooperation of corrupt officials and local powerful people, Zhang Juzheng, the last leg of the Ming Dynasty, fell, and Hai Rui, the fig leaf of the Ming Dynasty, was also torn to pieces.

They are victorious!
They failed too!

[The two most extreme officials of the Ming Dynasty, Hai Rui was honest throughout his life but failed to save the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Juzheng was corrupt for half his life but dominated the Wanli ZTE.
But... after Zhang Juzheng's death, all his efforts also dissipated, and Hai Rui indeed devoted his life to pursuing his ideals!
Hai Rui and Zhang Juzheng are indistinguishable. They each live to be the person they most want to be, and they all live to be themselves! 】

above the sky.

Hai Rui lay on the old bed board, his eyes full of peace, as if he had just fallen asleep.

If there was no sad music, if there was no bloody scene, in the wind and rain, this loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, Qingchen, Zhichen would sleep peacefully forever.

[He was an honest and upright official, acted impartially, had outstanding political achievements, and won the respect and love of the people. He was honored as:

"Haiqingtian"! 】

Hai Rui is dead.

Not only did Hai Rui have no children, he also had no money left.

At the last moment of Hai Rui's life, he did not forget to ask his servants to return the extra seven cents for heating expenses given by the officials.

Even with this mere seven cents, Hai Rui was not willing to let it tarnish his innocence.

These are Hai Rui's last words, which profoundly explain Hai Rui's innocent life.
This upright official who even scolded Emperor Jiajing without mercy finally ended his wandering life. Hai Rui, who had been an official all his life, could not even afford a coffin after his death.

The 15th year of Wanli (1587 AD)
After Hai Rui died, he had no money to bury him. His colleague Wang Yongji, the censor of Qiandu, came to Hai Rui's home and saw that Hai Rui was such an upright official, but his family was impoverished.

above the sky,

Wang Yongji was stunned. He looked at Hai Rui's old servant and asked:
"Where is Lord Hai's family wealth? Are you greedy?"

The old servant grinned, showing his old yellow teeth, and said:
"I have been following Master Hai because of his kindness. If I was seeking wealth, I would have defected to other officials long ago. Sir, what you see is all of Master Hai's wealth!"

Wang Yongji glanced at this, which looked like the inscription of Liu Yuxi's humble house. Is there really such a person in the world?
This was also the first time he came to Hai Rui's house. What happened in the history books actually came true?

This is a shabby house, but you are so virtuous!

Simple houses, tattered bamboo boxes, and almost no valuable belongings.

(Historical records record that after Hai Rui's death, the only relics counted were "a Gebu tent and a broken bamboo box". He was really impoverished and had nothing else.

When he was alive, he was a second-rank official in the imperial court, and after his death, he was posthumously granted the title of first-rank official. However, such a person has no wealth.)

Wang Yongji saw this and felt sad and moved at the same time, so he collected some money and gave Hai Rui a hasty burial.

"Brother Hai, I really can't think of it, that's all, I will take care of your funeral for you! Alas!"

After the news of Hai Rui's death came out, the streets of Nanjing were deserted.
The imperial court sent an imperial envoy to escort his coffin back to his hometown in Hainan.

After that, the imperial court continued to build Hai Rui's tomb, erect monuments and build ancestral halls.

Above the sky:

Countless shadows flashed by, all of which were the deeds of Hai Rui during his lifetime!
It is the shadow of Hai Ruishang's lack of public security!
A blue-robed sixth-grade official carried the coffin to the court and loudly preached:
"Nowadays, the burden of taxes and servitude has increased, and everything is in effect. Your Majesty has gone bankrupt and paid homage to the Buddha every day. His houses have been exhausted. In the past ten years or so, the world has been in a state of chaos!
Because His Majesty changed the name of the Yuan Dynasty, the world made assumptions and said: "The Jiajing people said that every family is clean, but there is no money to use."

……

The son of Governor Hu Zongxian passed through Chun'an County and stayed temporarily at a post station in Chun'an County.
Hu Zongxian's son took a large group of servants to live and eat in the post station, and they were very particular about food and drink. The postmaster would beat and scold him if he neglected him at all!
Hai Rui captured him and confiscated several thousand taels from him. He then gave him to Hu Zongxian and said,

"The Governor is an honest official. It is impossible for him to have such a domineering son, and it is impossible for him to have so much property!"

Hu Zongxian apologized and said with a smile:
"This son actually pretended to be my son and ruined my reputation. I really deserve to die!

Let me take it down and torture it. Thank you, Lord Hai! "

Above the sky, Hai Rui angrily attacked Yan Maoqing, the censor of the left deputy capital...

Hai Rui's deeds flashed quickly like a silhouette, and finally turned into a dark scene and disappeared into nothingness.

……

News of Hai Rui's death finally reached the court!

Emperor Wanli looked in the direction of Nanjing and couldn't help but said,

"For those loyal ministers who speak out and dare to rebuke me, God is going to cut off my arm of the Ming Dynasty! It's all my fault for harming this rare old minister, alas!"

Even though he was sad and angry, he did not forget to criticize him.
"Strengths cannot be coordinated with time."

Hai Rui's death caused an uproar in the city of Nanjing, and the people burst into tears as if they were mourning their heirs.

On the day that Hai Rui's coffin was shipped back to his hometown, shops were closed, merchants went on strike, and ordinary people went to see him off.

People wore white hats and mourning clothes, held sacrifices along the way, and cried incessantly. The procession stretched for hundreds of miles.

After the farewell boat meandered for hundreds of miles, there was still a white cloth floating on it. The cries of countless people on the shore could be heard, and countless people of the Ming Dynasty were crying for it!
Hai Rui's coffin drifted across the ocean, and when it was lifted out of the seaport, the rope suddenly broke.

People believe that the broken rope is a geomantic treasure that Master Hai found for himself!
The accompanying officials immediately reported it to Emperor Wanli!
Therefore, Emperor Wanli issued an order to bury him on the spot and erect a monument to commemorate him.

[Zhang Juzheng and Hai Rui]!
At the end of the curtain, Zhang Juzheng and Hai Rui no longer pass by each other!

It is a dialogue between two of the greatest civil servants of this era.

The powerful ministers of the Ming Dynasty and the direct ministers of the Ming Dynasty bowed their hands in worship.

Zhang Juzheng smiled and said:
"Master Hai, are you here?"

"coming!"

"Although Mr. Hai is more than ten years older than me, I died of illness five years earlier than you. It's a pity that I didn't say anything to you before I died."

Zhang Juzheng squeezed out a smile, and Hai Rui pursed his lips and asked:

"I wonder if there is anything else you haven't said yet, Sir Shofu?"

"I didn't use you in any important way, do you have any complaints?"

"Never!"

"Why is this? Hai Gong has never spared His Majesty, so how could he spare me, a powerful official of the Ming Dynasty? I can say that you, Hai Rui, can't tolerate sand in your eyes!"

Hai Rui said solemnly:

"No, if all the ministers in the world were like Mr. Zhang, there would be no Hai Rui in the world.
Even Emperor Wen of Han, whom I recognized, acted negligently!

No one is perfect, no one is perfect, everyone in the world knows it, and I, Hai Rui, also know it.
Mr. Zhang is an official who truly cares about the people. Hai Rui is not as good as Zhang Juzheng! "

Hai Rui refers to the ability to govern!
"Hahaha, wrong, Zhang Juzheng is far inferior to Hai Rui!"

Zhang Juzheng was referring to moral character and Hai Rui's original intention that has never changed!

"Hahaha!"

Zhang Juzheng and Hai Rui laughed more and more wildly, laughing and laughing, but they both cried. They didn't know whether they were crying for themselves or the Ming Dynasty!
The big teardrops kept falling to the ground, and then splashed up the smoke and dust on the ground, and then turned into a strong storm, washing away all the pictures.

……

As the protagonist, Lin Yuan looked at all this with a smile. Naturally, the following paragraph was not included.
But the reconciliation between the two people was what he had in mind. It is estimated that Mr. Zhang and Hai Qingtian should be able to reach a reconciliation in the spirit of heaven!

……

Great Qin.

Qin Shihuang Yingzheng finished watching all this, and finally touched the head of Prince Fusu's dog and warned:
"You, remember to keep your eyes open and see clearly what is a loyal minister and what is a traitor!

Some people can use it but not to a great extent; some people can use it to a great extent, but they must be careful!
And... don't break your loyal minister's heart. "

"My son knows!"

Big man.

Liu Bei's tears seemed to be drying up. In just a few hours, he seemed to have lived someone else's life!
Zhang Juzheng and Hai Rui were happy enemies, which made him feel a lot. He had countless words to say in his heart, but in the end he could only remain silent.

Zhuge Kongming smiled and said:

"My lord, the Ming Dynasty has loyal people from the Ming Dynasty, and I, the Han Dynasty, also have loyal people from my Han Dynasty. We don't have to envy others!"

Datang.

Tang Taizong Li Shimin just said to Prince Li Chengqian,

"Using people as a mirror can help you understand gains and losses. Using history as a mirror can help you understand the ups and downs. There is so much for you to learn!"

"That's it!"

Queen Changsun said in agreement with a vine whip in one hand, and Li Chengqian nodded obediently!

Great Song.

The civil servants burst into tears, and countless people felt the same way, although they could not be like Hai Rui or Zhang Juzheng!
But it doesn’t stop them from being moved by themselves!

Finally, there was the Hongwu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Yuanzhang was in tears, and Empress Ma was secretly wiping her tears. Prince Zhu Biao was an even more emotional person and couldn't help crying:

"How lucky we are to have such ministers in the Ming Dynasty? Gu, my heart aches!"

Zhu Yuanzhang still said stiffly:

"We still prefer Hai Rui. Look at him, how many people are guarding his coffin!"

Queen Ma advised:
"Chongba, there is no problem with being diligent and frugal, but our Zhu family dynasty cannot let loyal ministers endure hardship and suffer. Haven't we spawned so many corrupt officials in future generations!

Should we increase their salaries so that we can have more loyal people and fewer corrupt officials?
We can't let others do long-term work for us for free?If the officials are full, will the whipping and attendance laws not be implemented? "

Zhu Yuanzhang thought a lot at that time. Hai Rui, who couldn't even afford a coffin, almost revived Zhang Juzheng of the Ming Dynasty, although he had bad personal ethics. In the end, he thought of the people who worked hard to survive in the Ming Dynasty!

This scene played back and forth in his mind.

Finally, Zhu Yuanzhang could not help but sigh and said:

"Let's think about this again. The salary can be increased, but we also have to come up with a regulation for the multiplication test and the one-piece weaving test. We don't want to use all the money to support corrupt officials!
It doesn't matter if the officials are rich, but they can't be miserable and harm the people! "

"it is good!"

Prince Zhu Biao also shouted:
"Father Emperor Shengming!"

"Hahaha!"

The civil and military officials were also very happy. After all, they had also received benefits. Zhu Yuanzhang actually wanted to increase his salary. This was an unprecedented scene!

(The plot between Hai Rui and Zhang Juzheng is over, and the next map will be opened tomorrow!)

　I hate working overtime, I hate working overtime, I hate working overtime
