Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 577
Yongshou Palace.

Emperor Wanli is looking at a memorial.Suddenly, he suddenly had tinnitus.

Emperor Wanli frowned: "Huh? What's wrong with me?"

After the cup of tea, Zhang Jing, like a frightened big rabbit, jumped up and down Gao'er into the main hall of Yongshou Palace.

He lost his voice and yelled at Emperor Wanli: "Dead! Your Majesty! That person is dead!"

Emperor Wanli's face changed when he heard the words. He walked up to Zhang Jing and grabbed Zhang Jing's collar with both hands: "Be clear, who died?!"

Zhang Jing couldn't hide his excited expression: "My Majesty, Zhang Juzheng! He's dead!"

Emperor Wanli was taken aback for a moment.Suddenly, he rushed out of the hall.

Zhang Jing shouted from behind: "Your Majesty, dragon boots! Your dragon boots!"

Emperor Wanli ignored Zhang Jing, but ran to the gate of the palace and ordered the eunuch in charge of the emperor's driving: "Quick! Prepare the dragon chariot, no, prepare the horse! I'm going to the capital!"

Regardless of etiquette, Emperor Wanli rode barefoot and galloped towards Zhang Juzheng's mansion on an imperial horse!Dozens of guards from the forbidden army behind him chased after Emperor Wanli on horseback.

Entering the capital and auxiliary mansion, Emperor Wanli asked the servants of the Zhang mansion loudly: "Where is Mr. Zhang? Where is my Mr. Zhang?"

You Qi came up to greet him, and quickly ordered a group of servants: "This is the emperor, hurry up and pay homage to the emperor. Long live my emperor!"

Emperor Wanli said: "This set of false rituals is exempted! Where is Mr. Zhang?"

You Qi replied: "My Majesty, the master's body is still in the bedroom."

Emperor Wanli ordered You Qi: "Take me there quickly!"

In the bedroom, Emperor Wanli saw Zhang Juzheng's body.

He sat by the sickbed and told You Qi: "You all go down. I want to stay with Mr. Zhang for a while."

Everyone retreated.Emperor Wanli looked at Zhang Juzheng's remains.

He muttered to himself: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang. You used to be my most trusted teacher, but now you are my most hated enemy. Power is really a bad thing. It can turn father and son, brothers, teachers and students against each other."

Emperor Wanli stood up: "However, don't worry. After I grasp the supreme power, I will definitely do better than you! Before you die, I hate you. After you die, I can't hate you at all. After all, I never I learned from you at the age of four or five. Everyone has feelings, and we have been together day and night for 15 years. The relationship between me and you as a teacher and student, as well as the friendship between monarch and minister, is as deep as the East China Sea and as high as Mount Tai."

There was a loud sound of footsteps outside the door.

Zhang Siwei, the second assistant of the cabinet, shouted outside the door: "Report to the emperor. Minister Zhang Siwei, led the cabinet members, six hall officials, and five military commanders to express condolences to Mr. Zhang."

Emperor Wanli shouted towards the door: "Kneel outside the door for a while first!"

Turning his head, Emperor Wanli said to Zhang Juzheng's body again: "Teacher, after you die, although I don't hate you anymore. Next, I will punish your party members to death! I will use the whole party to kill you!" Establish prestige in the imperial court! Make those kneeling outside the door submit to me! Teacher, don’t blame me! I have been the emperor for ten years, and I have no prestige among the officials. Only This method can allow me to establish my prestige as quickly as possible. When the power in the world truly belongs to me, I will take over your mantle and continue to benefit tens of millions of people in the two capitals and thirteen provinces!"

On the face of Emperor Wanli, there was a sophistication and ability that was not commensurate with his age at this moment.

After a stick of incense, Emperor Wanli ordered: "Come in!"

A group of officials entered the bedroom and knelt together in a dark mass.

Emperor Wanli wailed: "Mr. Zhang! My master! Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop! After you go, I feel like I have lost my left arm and right arm!"

Emperor Wanli began to cry bitterly, howling ghosts and gods!
In front of the ministers, he cried to his heart's content.After crying out his tears, he began to retch.First I vomited my breakfast, and then I started to vomit again!In the end, even the gall water was vomited out!
Zhang Siwei hurriedly kowtowed: "My Majesty, please mourn! Please take care of the dragon body!"

Emperor Wanli cried hoarsely, "The sky of the Ming Dynasty has collapsed! How can I take care of the dragon's body? How can I mourn?"

Emperor Wanli's sadness was not actually feigned, but came from his heart.He didn't lie to Zhang Juzheng's body just now: people have feelings.

The ministers kneeling in the bedroom are now thinking about each other.

In Zhang Siwei's heart, there was a small calculation: "Hey! Zhang Juzheng is finally dead! Great! No accidents, in a few days, the emperor will clean up Feng Bao and He Liu. By then, I will Shoufu, my ally Zhang Jing is the inner minister. The current emperor is only a 20-year-old young man. Together with Zhang Jing, I will definitely be able to control the court situation! The emperor? Heh, I will also be in my hands!"

Zhang Siwei made a fatal mistake.He underestimated the young emperor in front of him too much!
But Shen Shixing was thinking: "Mr. Zhang is dead, what about the New Deal? Your Majesty must not listen to slander and abolish the New Deal! If you do that, the Ming Dynasty will be destroyed forever!"

He Fu.

He Laoliu was sitting in the hall, looking at the impeachment notes that Zhang Juzheng gave him.

He Shizhong and Yang Wan suddenly barged in.

He Liu asked: "At this time, you are not on business in Jinyiwei, what are you doing here?"

He Shizhong stammered and said: "Father, Mr. Zhang... is dead!"

He Liu got up suddenly when he heard the words, and stared straight at the sky outside the hall.

Yang Wan asked: "Master Liu, officials of the third rank and above in Beijing have all gone to the capital to mourn Mr. Zhang. The emperor is also there. Do you want to go there?"

He Liu shook his head: "Forget it, I won't go."

Turning his head, he told his wife Bai Xiaoyan: "Go, bring me the filial robe that I prepared a few days ago."

He Liu then instructed He Shizhong and Yang Wan: "Mr. Zhang has passed away, and there will inevitably be some troubles in the capital. In the past few days, you have all the brothers of Jin Yiwei standing by in the guard. Alright, let's go."

He Shizhong and Yang Wan took orders and left.

He Liu came to Dongpianfang.In the east side room, a god card has been set up.The god tablet is covered with a black cloth.

He Liu uncovered the black cloth, only to see a large inscription on the god card: "The God of the Ming Dynasty Prince Taifu, the Prince Taishi, and the Chief Assistant of the Cabinet Zhang Juzheng".

He Liu lit a piece of incense, and respectfully put incense on Zhang Juzheng's tablet.

Then, He Liu bowed deeply to the divine card: "Mr. Zhang, go! Don't worry, I will try my best to do what I promised you!"
