As the Long Live Lord solemnly said the word "Announcement", the guards hurriedly bowed and retreated, and went to escort the Grand Master into the Pavilion in the middle of the lake in the West Garden.
Not long after.
Zhu Yijun actually became a little nervous when he saw the Grand Master wearing a crimson first-grade official uniform walking quickly under the leadership of his guards at the entrance.
Looking at that familiar figure, Zhu Yijun felt awe-inspiring in his heart.
The tragic memories of my boyhood came to mind again. I slapped my hands and scolded loudly whenever I disagreed...
Perhaps it was the teacher's instinctive fear that made Mr. Long Live look around awkwardly, as if he felt something was wrong.
He felt that Zheng Shuyi's presence was inappropriate.
Afraid of being scolded by the teacher.
Zheng Shuyi was stunned and quickly responded: "Yes."
As the beloved concubine Yingying stood up, she left the Huxin Pavilion with light steps.
Zhu Yijun felt more natural now, but soon felt something was wrong, so he straightened his clothes again, then turned his back to the entrance of the Huxin Pavilion.
With hands behind his back.
Banzai Ye lowered his head and looked at a group of leisurely koi carp in the sparkling lake, deliberately pretending to be thinking seriously.
This pretense of calmness made several palace maids in the pavilion look dumbfounded. Our emperor's demeanor and demeanor seemed to be speaking from head to toe.
"Praise me, Grand Master, come and praise me!"
Ladies, you look at me, I look at you, and then you quickly look down at your toes.
After another moment.
As the guards led Zhang Juzheng into the pavilion in the middle of the lake, Zhang Juzheng looked up and saw the young emperor's pretentious and coquettish appearance.
Zhang Juzheng was also stunned.
Which song is this sung from?
Doesn’t he himself know the character of the students he cultivated with his own hands?
Looking at the handsome young emperor with his back to him, Grand Master was confused for a while, but he still bowed down.
"Old minister, long live, long live, long live!"
This is what Zhu Yijun was waiting for.
Hear the words.
The young emperor turned around like a whirlwind and said in a loud voice: "Master, please excuse me and keep your body flat...here comes...show me your seat to the master."
This series of words has obviously been thought through in my mind for a long time.
The guard quickly brought a chair.
But Zhang Juzheng had no intention of sitting down. After he stood up, he still stood in silence, looking at the young emperor whom he had raised with one hand with a pair of slightly tired eyes.
That face is full of energy and confidence!
This demeanor, this demeanor!
Zhang Juzheng felt a little dazed in his heart, and even had a trace of doubt about himself. Could it be that the emperor had really grown up and knew how to handle government affairs?
The facts were right in front of him.
After standing in silence with his hands lowered for a long time, Zhang Juzheng finally lowered his arrogant head, saluted again, and said softly: "Old minister, I have something unclear. This disaster is approaching, but I don't know, has your majesty ever issued a decree to the factory guards?"
Zhu Yijun nodded and said seriously: "Yes."
Say it clearly.
This is my aim!
Of course, he had already thought of his words, and then he tightened his face and defended: "The situation was so urgent at the time, and I was extremely anxious..."
This set of rhetoric made Zhang Juzheng stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the use of large quantities of poultry to fight locust plagues was really the emperor's idea!
Zhang Juzheng was silent for a long time, then lowered his head and said softly: "Your Majesty is wise."
It is really not easy for this wise saying to come from Zhang Juzheng's mouth.
But this compliment immediately made the young emperor's spirits soar, and he laughed heartily, as if he had eaten a pistachio.
"haha."
The emperor smiled from ear to ear.
It's like being scratched, not to mention how comfortable it is.
This made Zhang Juzheng have another suspicion in his heart. He never expected that his compliment would make the emperor so happy that he smiled so much that his back molars were exposed.
This made Zhang Juzheng silent, and another thought came into his mind. Perhaps he was indeed too strict and unkind in his treatment of the emperor.
Maybe what the emperor needs now is...
encourage?
Zhang Juzheng was a little unsure.
After another moment.
The emperor said excitedly: "Master, come to me."
Zhang Juzheng did not dare to neglect and said hurriedly: "Old minister, I obey the order."
As the master and apprentice stood side by side in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, looking at the sparkling infinite scenery in the Xiyuan, the maids and guards around them also became excited.
The atmosphere is a little subtle.
This scene seems to go back to a few years ago, when the emperor was still young and the grand master was not that old. At that time...
The master and apprentice also stood side by side and looked at the scenery.
They were also chatting and laughing like this.
This picture soon condensed into a moving ink painting.
In the blink of an eye, it was five days later.
Beijing, Taishi Mansion.
As the Fourth Master of the Zhang Mansion, with a few guards and a dusty body, dismounted from his horse in front of the mansion gate, the entire Grand Master's Mansion became noisy.
"The Fourth Master is back home!"
In the hustle and bustle.
Several Hanlin masters from the Zhang family who had been waiting for a long time rushed out to greet Zhang Jianxiu and gave Zhang Jianxiu warm smiles.
"Fourth brother!"
"Fourth, hahaha!"
In laughter.
The whole Zhang family was as lively as if they were celebrating a festival, and they hurriedly welcomed the commander, who had made great contributions to the court and received praise from both the government and the public, into the inner house.
The locust plague has gradually been brought under control.
Now the fourth master of the Zhang family is a famous man in the capital!
When night falls slowly.
In the decorated inner house, all the direct descendants of the Zhang family were present, and all kinds of compliments were heard. Even Zhang Juzheng, who was in a good mood, made an exception and drank a few glasses of water and wine.
The smile on that old face was genuine.
After a while of excitement.
At midnight.
Zhang Jianxiu personally supported his red-faced old father and walked towards the inner house. The father and son paced slowly in the corridor of the flower hall.
The night is as quiet as water.
while walking.
Zhang Jianxiu felt a little tangled, his face was uncertain for a while, but he finally mustered up the courage, gritted his teeth and whispered: "Dad, return to power."
The implication.
It's time to let the emperor take charge.
Zhang Juzheng was originally in a good mood.
Upon hearing this.
The Grand Master's somewhat old brows furrowed and he said displeasedly: "What kind of decision can he make? Does he know how to govern the country, or does he know how to reform the law?"
The Ming Dynasty's New Deal has now reached its most critical moment.
Once you let go, you'll be in chaos.
In deathly silence.
But Zhang Jianxiu gritted his teeth again and politely advised: "Father, please think again."
The words fell.
Zhang Juzheng stopped, turned around, and looked at his most valued son with majestic eyes, but saw the determination in his son's eyes.
That clear and concentrated gaze gave Zhang Juzheng a trace of hesitation in his heart. After a long time, he said: "It's a very important matter. As a father, I'll give it some thought."
Zhang Jianxiu hurriedly whispered: "I know, Dad."
He felt relaxed at this moment. In any case, his father's tone had become more relaxed regarding the emperor's personal administration.
This is good news for the Zhang family and the Ming Dynasty.
