Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 566 fainted

The dragon begets the dragon, the phoenix begets the phoenix, and the son of a mouse can make holes.Emperor Wanli is the eldest grandson of Emperor Jiajing, and he has the intelligence and wisdom of Emperor Jiajing.

He knows better than anyone else what this servant kneeling at his feet is.

However, as an emperor, he had to use loyal ministers and good generals, and sometimes he had to use some insidious, cunning, shameless and vicious people.

Zhang Jing kowtowed like garlic: "Your Majesty knows the lesson. The slaves are only loyal to the emperor. I hope the emperor will bring down the traitors as soon as possible! Regarding the official position, the slaves don't have any unreasonable thoughts!"

Emperor Wanli said: "Forget it, get up. I heard that you have been very close to the consort Xu Congcheng recently?"

Xu Congcheng once led a group of relatives and relatives of the emperor to oppose the New Deal in the early years of Wanli.Later, He Liu used tricks to subdue him.Unwilling, he made a comeback in the sixth year of Wanli, joined the Zhiliangmeng founded by He Xinyin, and continued to be an enemy of Zhang Juzheng.After He Liu broke up the Zhiliang League, Empress Dowager Li didn't kill Xu Congcheng because she was the son-in-law of the eldest princess and had a noble status, but only imprisoned him in the mansion.

In the past month, Zhang Jing entered the eldest princess's mansion three times and met with Xu Congcheng in secret.

Zhang Jingdao: "Report to the emperor, there is indeed such a thing. Xu Congcheng has always hated Zhang Juzheng to the bone. This person can be used by the emperor."

Emperor Wanli sneered again: "Hate Mr. Zhang to the bone? Isn't that right? In my opinion, he hates the New Deal to the bone! Because the New Deal makes it impossible for a relative of the emperor like him to parasitize the court like a vampire!"

Zhang Jing was confused by Emperor Wanli: "Your Majesty, the New Deal was implemented by Zhang Juzheng alone. The New Deal is Zhang Juzheng, and Zhang Juzheng is the New Deal! To overthrow Zhang Juzheng, the New Deal must be abolished."

Emperor Wanli glared at Zhang Jing: "Do you really think that I am still the ten-year-old emperor when I first came to the throne? Zhang Juzheng is guilty of arrogating power, but the new policy is not guilty! The new policy benefits the country and the people. Zhang but not the New Deal!"

Emperor Wanli is not stupid!Now the Ming Dynasty is rich and strong, what is it relying on?Isn't it the New Deal?How could he destroy the foundation of the peaceful and prosperous world?

Zhang Jing was terrified of the young emperor in front of him.He discovered that Emperor Wanli was meticulous and meticulous, and he was by no means a master to be fooled by.

Emperor Wanli said again: "I also heard that you recently asked your cronies to collect evidence of Feng Bao and He Liu's illegal affairs over the years?"

Zhang Jingdao: "Your Majesty, civil servants often say that everything can be established if it is forewarned, and it will be abandoned if it is not forewarned. This servant is preparing for the emperor's demise. Feng Bao and He Liu are Zhang Juzheng's staunch allies. If you want to dethrone, you will fall." Feng and He."

Emperor Wanli gave a noncommittal "Oh".

After a while, he asked Zhang Jing: "Have you worked so hard to get the proof of Feng Bao and He Liu's crimes?"

Zhang Jingdao: "Feng Bao has been selling officials and nobles over the years, taking bribes and taking bribes. There are a lot of proofs! It's just He Liu..."

Emperor Wanli asked: "The criminal evidence of the leader of Jinyiwei, you can get it if you want. Besides, He Liu is a clean and honest person, even though he does things viciously."

Zhang Jing quickly said: "Don't worry, the emperor, the slaves will definitely find evidence of his crime."

Emperor Wanli laughed: "Isn't there a word of mouth between Dongchang and Jinyiwei? If there is no evidence, then fabricate evidence! In the first year of Wanli, He Liu just fabricated a lot of evidence to support Gao Gong. Did a large number of officials who opposed Zhang Juzheng fall from power?"

Zhang Jing slapped his head: "The emperor is really the most wise monarch in the past and present! Your words are really good words! Why didn't the servants think of it?"

Emperor Wanli closed his eyes: "My words? Kind words? I didn't say anything to you."

Zhang Jing kowtowed in a hurry: "Yes, yes! The emperor didn't say anything to the servants! The servants will go down now and arrange people to do things!"

Fifth watch.capital city.

Zhang Juzheng opened his eyes, ready to get up and change his clothes, and go to court outside Donghuamen.

Maybe it was because he got up in a hurry, his eyes were full of stars, and he felt dizzy for a while.

You Qi, the housekeeper of the Zhang residence, hurriedly helped Zhang Juzheng: "Master, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Juzheng said: "I feel dizzy. It shouldn't be a problem. Quick, change my clothes and go to Donghua Gate."

Half an hour later, Zhang Juzheng arrived outside Donghua Gate in a daze.

As soon as Zhang Juzheng appeared, Wang Guoguang, Shen Shixing, Pan Jixun, and Zhang Siwei surrounded him.

Minister of the Ministry of Industry Pan Jixun cupped his hands and said, "Shoufu, the dam on the southern part of the Yellow River needs to be repaired. Give me 150 million taels of silver, and I will go to Henan with the money to supervise the repair project."

Pan Jixun is known as the number one expert in river management since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.In these years, he was called a cabinet member, but in fact, he spent eleven months out of twelve months running around on river harnessing construction sites in other provinces.

Basically, Pan Jixun was Gao Gong's disciple back then.However, Zhang Juzheng is tolerant and has always used this political opponent's disciple.

Zhang Juzheng nodded in a daze: "Yes. Then I'll leave this matter to Brother Shi Liang."

Wang Guoguang asked: "Shoufu, Li Chengliang, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong Town, has submitted a letter, asking the imperial court to increase the Liaodong military expenditure. Whether or not our household department will pay this military expenditure, you have to make a decision as soon as possible."

Zhang Juzheng said: "Brother Ruguan, let me think for a moment."

Zhang Siwei interjected: "As for the candidates for Hubei's chief envoy, please make a decision as soon as possible."

Shen Shixing leaned over and said, "Ah, there is also the report of Jiangxi Governor Zhao Zhengxin telling him to return to his hometown. The chief minister plans to approve it or not."

Zhang Juzheng's ears were buzzing.Several people in the cabinet were still chattering about various political affairs, but he didn't listen to a single word.

Suddenly, his eyes went dark, and he passed out!
Chaos immediately broke out outside the Donghua Gate!

"It's not good, the first assistant has fainted!"

"Lie down, let Shoufu lie down! When people get old, it's easy to have a surge of energy and blood!"

"Come on, someone! Call the imperial doctor!"
