Looking at Wang Guoguang, Zhang Juzheng was startled. He quickly helped Wang Guoguang up, "Lord Wang, there's no need to do this!"
Wang Guoguang straightened up, and the two of them sat down again. Wang Guoguang said first, "Minister Zhang, the Ming Dynasty can't do without you now, and the imperial court can't do without you now. Although it's a bit unreasonable to steal the love, I still hope Minister Zhang can do it."
"It's my fault to make Minister Zhang bear the criticism. I'm willing to steal your love."
Zhang Juzheng looked at Wang Guoguang and saw that he was sincere. But Zhang Juzheng still didn't agree. He said, "Lord Wang, it's ethical to go back to mourn for your father's death. Taiyue doesn't dare to break it."
"There are wise rulers in the court and virtuous ministers in the court. Taiyue won't have a problem leaving."
"Plus, it's only 27 months. Taiyue is only 53 years old this year. After the mourning, if the emperor needs me, it's not too late for me to go back to the court.
After Taiyue leaves, Daming the country and Brother Lai Xuefu. "
Zhang Juzheng spoke very sincerely, expressing his attitude that he did not want to steal her love.
Wang Guoguang looked at Zhang Juzheng and sighed deeply. His face was a little disappointed. He really hoped that Zhang Juzheng would steal his love, but this matter was really too much for him to handle.
After all, mourning for his father wasn't just filial piety, it was also filial piety.
Loyalty and filial piety couldn't be both, but at this time, it was very difficult to choose.
After Wang Guoguang left, Zhang Juzheng became gloomy. He didn't want to go back to mourn for three years and he also wanted to steal his love.
But this could only be understood and not spoken. Even if he wanted to steal his love, Wang Guoguang couldn't be the first to do it.
The minister of war didn't have a legitimate reason to do it. At the same time, it would give people an excuse to control the military.
Sitting on the chair, Zhang Juzheng fell into deep thought. In fact, it wasn't that Zhang Juzheng hadn't thought about Love Stealing, but this was a big matter that required careful consideration.
His father had suddenly passed away. On one hand, there was filial piety and etiquette. On the other hand, there was his own reform and Daming the country. Zhang Juzheng hesitated.
Forbidden City, Wenhua Palace.
Ever since he had transmigrated, Zhu Yijun had never let go of writing. His favorite calligraphy was Liu Gongquan's Liu style, so Zhu Yijun had been copying Liu style. After a few years, it had become somewhat decent.
As the saying goes, "A beautiful woman adds fragrance to the sleeves". When Zhu Yijun was writing, the one who helped him grind the paper was also a beautiful palace maid.
The palace maid's name was Liu Seol. It was a name that Zhu Yijun liked very much. The 16-year-old Liu Seol was very beautiful. This was also the reason why Zhu Yijun kept her by his side to serve him. She was a feast for the eyes!
At the same time, Liu Seol was also very talented. Since she was young, she had been reading poetry and books. She was also proficient in zither, painting, and calligraphy. She was a very good girl.
Recently, Zhu Yijun brought her around a lot. This also caused Liu Seol's status in the palace to rise sharply.
At this time, Zhu Yijun was writing and Liu Seol was grinding. The atmosphere was very harmonious. No one came to disturb them.
Zhu Yijun held the pen and wrote four big words on the paper: Dedicate myself to the country!
"Your Majesty, these four words have the charm of Liu Gongquan. In time, the pupil will surpass the teacher." Liu Seol stared at the four words written by Zhu Yijun and said with a smile.
Reaching out to pinch Liu Seol's nose, Zhu Yijun said with a smile, "This flattery is good. I will accept it. Then tell me, who in the Daming Dynasty is worthy of these four words?"
Liu Seol was stunned. To be able to obtain Zhu Yijun's love, Liu Seol was naturally smart enough. After thinking for a moment, Liu Seol said, "This servant feels that Master Yu is worthy of these four words. What Master Yu has done is worthy of the four words."
Master Yu?
Of course, Zhu Yijun knew who Liu Seol was talking about. Master Yu was Yu Qian!
He also admired this Zhu Yijun very much. He was indeed worthy of the four words "dedicate himself to the country".
Zhu Yijun felt that he was heroic, loyal, and sincere. No matter how many words of praise were used on him, it wouldn't be too much.
Picking up the pen, Zhu Yijun took another piece of paper and wrote a sentence on it.
Be loyal and fight for glory with the sun and the moon!
Liu Seol looked at the comments written by Zhu Yijun and said with a smile, "Master Yu has turned the tide and helped the building to collapse. Well done.
His Majesty said that Master Yu is loyal and fight for glory with the sun and the moon. This is a good evaluation. "
Yu Qian was regarded as the Three Heroes of West Lake by later generations. All three of them died heroic deaths.
In this era, a person was often judged not by whether or not he accomplished what he wanted to do, but by his integrity.
Yu Qian was different. Not only did he succeed, but he also had a strong integrity. His death was also very regrettable.
"Well said!"
Zhu Yijun said with a smile, "We can't let those who have contributed to Daming shed tears after bleeding!"
Liu Seol stood on the side and smiled without saying anything. She liked to look at the Emperor like this. This kind of Emperor was fascinating.
Just as Zhu Yijun and Su Qingsang were being affectionate, Zhang Jing walked in quickly from outside.
Zhu Yijun was stunned. Seeing Zhang Jing's expression, he knew that something had happened. Based on Zhang Jing's character and judgment, he would never come in at this time.
Running in at this time obviously meant that something big had happened.
"Imperial Majesty, something has happened!" Zhang Jing did not hesitate and said quickly.
"Just now, the ministers of the Cabinet and the scholars of the Hanlin Academy, the scholars of the Imperial Academy, the Xiu Zhi, the Editor, and the Shu Jishi all put on red robes and went to the Cabinet to congratulate.
The officials are all telling Minister Zhang to go back to his hometown to mourn, and they went to congratulate Minister Lv. "
Zhu Yijun was stunned, and his face instantly darkened. How impatient were they?
Not to mention other things, Zhang Juzheng did not resign and go back to his hometown, but his father died!
When his father died, you people went to the Cabinet to congratulate Lv Diaoyang in red robes. What did you congratulate?
Congratulate Lv Diaoyang for becoming the Cabinet Chief?
Are you going to celebrate?
How hateful!
Although it was normal for people in the officialdom to cool down after they left, this person was still here!
Besides, this was a dead father. Couldn't you pay attention to it?
Needless to say, Zhu Yijun's heart was full of disgust, and the good mood just now was swept away in an instant. How much did you hate Zhang Juzheng?
You were purely trying to disgust me to death!
Then what about my reform in the future?
When I die, are you going to set off firecrackers?
At this time, Zhu Yijun really empathized with them. He felt very aggrieved and wished he could kill all these people.
Although there was a customary rule in the Daming Court that after the Cabinet Chief died for three days, the Vice Cabinet Chief could move his seat from the right to the left.
But why did you do this?
Zhu Yijun pointed at Zhang Jing and said loudly, "You, go to the Cabinet."
"Go see who took the lead, and then go see Lv Diaoyang. See if Lv Diaoyang moved his chair to the left!"
