Idle courtiers

Chapter 302 Big Historical Vision

Zhou Nan also sighed: "Students have heard that the palace and Yan Ge are not on good terms. It is indeed unsafe for Mr. Li and Mr. Li to do so."

Zhang Juzheng suddenly smiled: "Yan Shoufu has presided over the cabinet for 20 years, and he has made outstanding achievements. We younger generations also admire him very much. Zhou Xiaoyou, don't believe in rumors."

Zhou Nan was taken aback, didn't Prince Yu's Mansion and the Yan Party strangle you to death? Am I wrong?

No, looking at Zhang Juzheng's expression, he admired Yan Song very much, it shouldn't be!
Zhang Juzheng couldn't see what Zhou Nan was thinking, so he said inexplicably: "A few years ago, there was a huge disturbance in Qingzhang Jingji's concealment of the imperial property, and the experience of Shuntian Mansion died. This matter even alarmed His Majesty. The factory thoroughly investigated. But Chen Hong investigated for two months, but nothing came of it, and Wansui didn't bother anymore."

Zhou Nan trembled, and suddenly understood that Zhao Jing in Shuntian Mansion died inexplicably and miraculously, it was obvious that someone wanted to frame Li Wei, and then lead the disaster to Yu Wang Mansion.

At that time, he thought that the person who did it was the Yan Party, and he tried to use this matter to attack the royal family.This matter involves the struggle between the old and new powers in the court in the future, which makes sense.

But now hearing what Zhang Juzheng said, it was obviously Chen Hong who did it.

Yes, yes, it must be him.This time Chen Hong asked Wang Lian to escort him to Li's house to die, but he used the same method.This is no longer an ordinary political struggle in the court, but a fight for the throne.

Come to think of it, because Yan Shoufu is too old for Yan Dang, Xiao Ge doesn't have a diploma and is congenitally deficient.What they are thinking now is how to make a smooth transition, how to live in peace with the new emperor's family in the future, maintain the current situation, and even regain the trust of the future emperor.

Old Yan Xiaoyan is not a lunatic, how could he start a war with the future emperor.

In the civil service politics of the Ming Dynasty, the ministers could not fight against the monarchy anyway.Better than Yang Tinghe, the chief assistant in the early years of Jiajing, isn't it just a matter of talking.

In fact, it is easy for Yan Dang to gain the trust of King Yu in the future, that is Fujian Bian Gong.As long as the battle over there continues, the imperial court must use them.

To be honest, there are really not many people in the Wangfu family who can fight.In the real history, after Zhang Juzheng came to power in the future, Qi Jiguang and other new-generation generals who grew up in the war were reused to win the final victory of the Anti-Japanese War.

Moreover, Yan Song has a skill that others do not have, and is good at managing money.The reason why Fujian's front line has been fighting smoothly in recent years is all due to Lao Yan's raising military expenses.

Compared with the strict party, even if it loses power in the political struggle of the court, it will be a big deal to go home and become a rich man, and there may not be no chance of recovery in the future.As for civil servants, they are all a family, and they all follow the basic rules of the game.

In contrast, the struggle in the inner palace where Chen Hong lived was extremely cruel.Even if you are the chief inspector of ceremonies, and a new king ascends the throne, and a new generation replaces the old one, you may be sent to guard the tomb of the first emperor, or you may be physically eliminated.

If you sail against the current, if you don't enter, you will be overturned directly into the water. Chen Hong must fight.

Thinking of this, Zhou Nan suddenly realized that the historical perspective of a traveler had returned.

Everything is under control.

Zhang Juzheng's words had clearly told Zhou Nan that although the Palace and the Yan Party were political opponents, they still didn't want to start a war with them.The most important task of the Wangfu department now is to let Yuwang take over smoothly. As for the strict party, it just needs to have a normal metabolism in the future.

They didn't want to tear themselves apart with Yan Dang, but Zhou Nan couldn't make it.Whether it's Ah Jiu's marriage or the rescue of Master, Yan Song must be eradicated with the help of Xu Jie in the shortest possible time.

Zhang Juzheng is reminding Zhou Nan that it is politically correct to be strict, but the palace doesn't mean it, so don't get it wrong.

Zhou Nan has no way out.

"Thank you Mr. Zhang for your pointers. Zhou Nan already understands. However, the strict party will harm the country and the people. Students should be the first in the world, and they have to do it."

Zhang Juzheng: "But the case of your mentor Wang Yuanmei's father?"

Talking to Congren is simple, Zhou Nan nodded: "Mr. Wansheng, please ask the Li family and his son to come forward, and impeach the Yan family and his son for privately raising military expenses."

Zhang Juzheng just smiled and said nothing.

Zhou Nan gritted his teeth and decided to reveal his plan: "Just now, Wansheng said that there is justice between heaven and earth, and this principle is the human heart. This is the key to this matter. What the palace needs to do now is to tell the world Man, His Majesty will not shake the will to let King Yu take over the throne after a long life, and beware of evil people with ulterior motives to dispel this idea. In this way, Chen Hong naturally retreated in the face of difficulties. Without the power in Chen Hong's hand, King Jing can't think about it It's impossible for Lu."

Zhang Juzheng: "Also ask for advice."

Zhou Nan solemnly spit out three words: "Good grandson!"

"This is a good way!" Zhang Juzheng, who had always had a gentle face, exclaimed in surprise.

He stood up abruptly and bowed to Zhou Nan.

Zhou Nan also returned the gift deeply, he knew that Zhang Juzheng had already agreed to his terms, and it was meaningless to say anything else, everyone agreed.

It's a conversation between smart people and smart people, succinctly.

Zhang Juzheng stood up, left in a hurry, the chief conspirator of the palace obviously went to see King Yu overnight to discuss the matter.As for what Zhou Nan did with the Li family's father and son's report letter, no need to ask, there must be an elder in the court who wanted to attack Yan Song.The Yuwang Party has been at odds with the Yan Party in recent years, and they are at odds. He is naturally happy to see it succeed and is willing to help.

As soon as he left, Zhou Nan's tense body relaxed and sat on the chair, feeling that the conversation with Zhang Juzheng just now had exhausted all his energy.

After taking a sip of strong tea, he showed a smile on his face. As long as the father and son of the Li family came forward as witnesses, and the evidence of the strict party was conclusive, then it would be up to Xu Jie. How could the old fox, Gui Xiang, let this opportunity pass?

Zhou Nan’s words of "good saint grandson" just now are also based on the foresight of the history that will happen in the future. In real history, Jiajing refused to see his two sons for more than ten years because of the motto "two dragons will not meet". .

But after all, he is an old man, and he also needs the warmth of the family and the enjoyment of family happiness.

Therefore, he couldn't bear the loneliness later, so he sent someone to take Zhu Yijun, the son of King Yu, who was the future Emperor Wanli, into the palace to live there for a long time.

Emperor Wanli was a big fat man, so he was naturally a little fat man when he was a child.

Unlike adults, children who are a few years old are fat and look very cute.What's more, Zhu Yijun was born smart and smart, which made Jiajing feel happy.Aiwujiwu, in this way, the position of "Prince Prince" of King Yu can be regarded as completely stable.

According to unofficial records, Jiajing even had the idea of ​​directly establishing a grandson.It was only because Zhu Yijun was too young and because of the opposition of the ministers that he gave up.

That's right, the "two dragons" can't meet each other, the emperor and the prince can't stay together, but the grandson is not the heir to the throne, so it's okay to meet and live together.

Zhu Yijun's entry into the palace has a strong political meaning, and King Jing should give up.Even if he doesn't give up, people's hearts and public opinion can't stand on his side.

This kind of strategy was also used once when Yongzheng Jiulong seized the throne in the Qing Dynasty.Emperor Kangxi also made up his mind to pass on the throne to Prince Yong because of his deep love for the grandson of Qianlong, and this led to the later "Yongzheng prosperous age." The "Kangqian prosperous age" that historians call is actually the glory of Yongzheng. , Yongzheng was the greatest statesman of the Qing Dynasty.Qianlong, apart from six visits to the south of the Yangtze River, the Daxing Literary Inquisition did not do any good, you rotten thing!
Zhou Nan was not worried that Zhang Juzheng would go back on his word. People in this era pay attention to fame and integrity, especially for such an outstanding person as Lao Zhang, he will naturally do what he promised.

The only thing to worry about is the violent reaction of the Li family father and son. I am afraid that his collusion with the Yan Party will be revealed to the world, and Concubine Li will also be blamed by King Yu.

Zhou Nan sold them backhandedly. The poor two belonged to being sold and counting money for them. The enmity with Zhou Nan might be deepened.

However, Zhou Nan was not worried.Instead, he smiled mockingly in his heart: Two idiots, they are only worthy of being relatives in this life!
