I'm really not doing business

Chapter 158 I am such a person with a small belly
Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng, and felt admiration from the bottom of his heart. The imperial court has been corrupted so much, just like the chief ministers of previous dynasties, just let it go, if he is worthy of the salary given by the emperor, it's over. Why bother?
Daming, who is as muddy, is dead.

Sometimes Zhu Yijun feels this way when facing the court situation, but Zhang Juzheng has always been very patient in handling the affairs of the court, big and small. He has been doing this for more than ten years, with great work intensity and fierce struggle. What has supported me until now.

Of course, most of the time, it was Zhang Ju who was beating others, and the opponent he was beating had no power to fight back, with clever methods, tough methods, and effective handling.

The reason why the Haiyun faction was beaten by the Heyun faction in the court is because the imperial court's grain is a golden hole for moths, big and small. Countless people lie on this main artery and gulp down their blood. Reform, shipping grain is only the first step.

If you take a closer look at Zhang Juzheng's administration, you will find the word fine. The previous entry of 350 million taels of silver and silk into the court was actually an experiment of maritime transportation presided over by Zhang Juzheng, and it was an experiment with full confidence.

Zhang Juzheng, who is so patient, also has infinitely close to zero patience with Zhang Han. Zhang Han is in the court, which really affects the efficiency too much.

For the sake of efficiency, Zhang Juzheng was able to turn the little emperor's lecture into a self-study class for the imperial gate to listen to the government, and then gave the lecture; then Zhang Han could be kicked out for the sake of efficiency. This is the last time, Zhang Han said during the court discussion Some bullshit.

The main contradiction in the Ming Dynasty was the contradiction in the means of production between the wealthy, the wealthy, the gentry, and the ordinary people. In order to alleviate this contradiction, Zhang Juzheng even ignored his own posthumous reputation, let alone Zhang Han.

After Yumen listened to the government, there was a banquet. Zhang Juzheng explained the doctrine of the mean in detail and thoroughly based on his own experience in governing the country.

Zhang Juzheng raised his hands and said: "Every country in the world has nine scriptures, so those who practice them are the same."

"The master said that there are nine long-lasting principles for a ruler to govern the world. Although the effects of these nine things are different from his own, there is a major premise to achieve these nine things. , this premise is true.”

"Therefore, things in the world must first be true and not false, so that they will last forever and not change. If they are solid, they will do practical things. If they can be real, then everything in the nine scriptures can be accomplished, and the world can be governed. If this is not sincere, no matter how detailed the name is and how comprehensive the provisions of the law are, it is nothing more than a hypocrisy to whitewash the peace, how can it be called the rule of the world?"

Zhu Yijun looked at the notes he had made, and said with a slight frown: "But the Imperial Academy commented on the mean, saying that the one who does it is one, and it is called benevolence, which means that it is about the affairs of the world, and the premise is benevolence."

"False." Zhang Juzheng said neither humble nor overbearing: "At least in the Nine Classics of Governance, the master is not talking about benevolence, but telling the truth, because the one who does it, the next sentence is: Everything will be established if you don't hesitate, and you will fail if you don't hesitate. If you say something beforehand, you won’t get stuck. If you decide beforehand, you won’t be sleepy. If you act before you decide, you won’t be guilty.

"It's like things placed on the ground. If you don't put them on the ground, how can they stand up? Just like government affairs, they have been crooked since they were formulated. How can they last for a long time? Yu: Su Ding, put it away, Zhou Zheng."

"Talking with people, if you don't tell the truth, you are not sure, you must be confused; how to be sure? It's just faithfulness."

"Before doing things, if there is no truth, it will definitely not work. If a person follows the truth and is a down-to-earth practice, then his truth has its source, and it is naturally inexhaustible. , without end."

"If you are untruthful, you will stumble (fall) with your words, you will be trapped in your actions, you will be guilty of your actions, and you will be impoverished in your way."

Zhang Juzheng doesn't like to take words out of context when he is reasonable, but interprets this sentence in context, instead of picking out a few sentences to quote.

All things will be done beforehand, and nothing will be abandoned if not hesitated. The word benevolence is not very related to it, but it is highly related to the faithfulness of practice.

Benevolence, Zhang Juzheng has talked about benevolence a lot, but in the end there is no clear answer, but in fact, if it is summed up, it is that the benevolent loves others, you love me, I love you, everyone is sweet.

After all, doing things is like putting things away, you must put them upright, otherwise you won't be able to stand.

What does the master mean, you have to ask the master, but Zhang Juzheng's meaning is very clear, the oneness of the one who governs the country is the truth, and speaks with facts.

Zhu Yijun couldn't help but think of the old Taoist priest. According to what Zhang Juzheng said, the old Taoist priest wanted to call Hai Rui to scold him, but Hai Rui scolded the old Taoist priest instead. He was not executed because Hai Rui was faithful and he was telling the truth.

After the palace change in the 21st year of Jiajing, the old Taoist started a long-term bad life of the emperor. In fact, the old Taoist has the ability to cure it, just like the 20 years before he ascended the throne. rotten.

Why can Wan Shihe chase after Zhang Han and scold Zhang Han, who can only be a coward?Because Zhang Han was confounding black and white, confusing right and wrong, and turned the canal grain into the concept of canal water transportation, Wan Shihe caught his sore feet and gave him a blow.

This is why Wanshi and quarrel can win the quarrel. In everything in the world, the most important thing is the truth, sincerity, and truth, and what some people are most afraid of is the truth, sincerity, and truth. The stream of light is a mouth-waving person, such as a lowly Confucian who likes to make false accusations and blur the boundaries between right and wrong.

Judging from Zhang Juzheng's administration, he also only plays with the truth, not with vain things. No matter how brilliant he blows up, when he gets to the truth, he misses the trap. Sell ​​sweet potatoes.

Regarding mistakes, Zhang Juzheng is as true as ever. For example, after Gao Qiyu did something stupid, Zhang Juzheng immediately admitted his mistakes, and if they were wrong, they were wrong.

Zhu Yijun said with quite a feeling: "Very good, sir is a great talent."

"Sir, I think that the annotations of the Four Books of the World should still be based on the annotations of the master. Then Yu Mao's theory that Wang Yangming should sacrifice to the Confucian Temple, but the seven schools of the Wang family basically have no practice, so there is no truth. It is still the annotations of the husband. Better."

Zhang Juzheng said helplessly: "Uncle Xinjian's talents and learning are higher than those of my ministers. If I give a banquet for Your Majesty, Your Majesty will naturally think that your talents and learning are higher."

The little emperor saw that Zhang Juzheng was wearing tens of thousands of filters, so he naturally felt that Zhang Juzheng's knowledge was also excellent, but Zhang Juzheng's own knowledge was still not as good as Wang Yangming's, he was an official.

Zhu Yijun shook his head and said, "It's just that the standards are different. Mister's knowledge is about governing a country in the world. I have read Yangming Xinxue, and I dare not say that all seven sects understand it. Uncle Xin’s name is used to deceive many people.”

"Sir, the world's academic and political corruption is so corrupt. If you still refuse to educate, then I have a Mr. Assistant Prime Minister. What will happen after Mr.? Who will I use? Who will I use next? Who will I use in Ming Dynasty? That's it."

In fact, Zhang Juzheng did not have much confidence in his teaching ability. His disciple, the little emperor, was tired of studying before he assassinated the king; It is also mentioned in "Ming Yu"; look at Li Le again, eating other people's food and taking other people's food is still not doing business.

"Sir, I'm afraid they won't understand? If I can understand it, they should be able to." Zhu Yijun said with a smile.

"Minister obeys the order." Zhang Juzheng thought for a while, and it was also the same reason. Although his knowledge was not high, the content he talked about was practical knowledge about entering the world and governing. The Imperial Examination of the Ming Dynasty required officials, not a doctor of Confucian classics.

"Sir, my arithmetic has improved a little, sir, come with me." Zhu Yijun stood up and came to the side hall of Wenhua Palace.

The heavy curtain was opened, and the not too strong sunlight at noon shone on the question board.

On the question board, there are small squares drawn one by one, and there are two vertical and horizontal axes, and on the question board, there is a nearly perfect curve. This curve, Zhang Juzheng can see at a glance, is the former emperor. Your Majesty studies how to make the curve drawn by the reflecting telescope that can be seen more clearly, without chromatic aberration, and more stable.

Standing in front of the question board, Zhu Yijun said quite solemnly: "Sir, he talked about contradictions before, saying that the moon moves with the earth, the moon shines on shadows, the trees move with the wind, the trees swing their leaves, the water moves with the leaves, and the lake produces ripples. Everything in the world exists. general connection."

"I made a reflecting telescope before. When I was researching the manufacture of the telescope, I was thinking about how to determine the multiple of the reflecting telescope?"

"In Wang Wensu's "Baojian of Mathematics", there is the idea of ​​combining numbers and shapes. There is a universal connection between numbers and shapes. There are numbers when there are shapes, and there are shapes when there are numbers. Just like contradictions, they never exist in isolation."

"A number also has its meaning in graphics. For example, 0 usually means nothing, and in many cases, it also means the beginning. Starting from zero, then the number has a formal meaning."

Zhu Yijun took out a watch and said with a smile, "Every second."

The weights and measures of Ming Dynasty, especially degrees, are still based on the hundred-point system, not the sixty-point system. One minute above the standard is equal to one hundred points, and one minute is equal to one hundred seconds. This is the combination of numbers and forms in Ming Dynasty in astronomy.

Zhu Yijun drew a straight line with a ruler, and said with a smile: ""Yi" said: In ancient times, people tied ropes to govern, and later sages used letters to make changes. For big things, tie the ropes; for small things, tie the ropes for small things. As much as there are things."

"So we click a point on a straight line, set it as zero, and then we have a starting point."

"Positive is red, negative is black, so this straight line has a direction, right is positive, left is negative."

"Taking one centimeter as the length, start cutting out this straight line, and there will be... -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3... If we need to be more precise, divide one centimeter into ten centimeters , so heavy."

Zhu Yijun drew a number axis, and the number axis used by Daming is very common, such as the celestial sphere, such as the celestial equator, such as the intersection angle between the yellow and the red, such as the calculation of precession, such as the length of the shadow of Guibiao, such as the angle of the north sky and the earth, etc. It is a specific application of the number axis or the combination of numbers and shapes.

The graphic meaning of a number is a point.

Of course Zhang Juzheng can understand that this ordinary line can become a mathematical tool after it has various definitions, because this kind of mathematical tool is used very frequently in degree bypass.

"It seems that we can use this number line to represent all the numbers we know, integers, fractions, and decimals." Zhu Yijun looked at the number line and said, "But I have encountered a new problem, such as a square with an area of ​​4 A square with a side length of two can be represented on a number line with a scale, but if it is a square with an area of ​​3 and a side length of √3, how can this number be represented on the number line?"

"Uncle Huang's law of twelve equals has been confirmed. √2 and √3 are infinite non-recurring decimals, which cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers."

At this point, Zhu Yijun stopped. Zu Chongzhi never thought that pi could be expressed as the ratio of two integers. He accurately calculated that pi was between the zero number and the surplus number.

Also for the convenience of calculation, Zu Chongzhi also gave two approximate values. One is called the approximate rate of 22/7, and the other is called the secret rate of 355/113. It was not until Wei Da, who played for France during the Wanli period, that he calculated the value of 355/113. value.

The number line can represent any integer and any recurring decimal, because recurring decimals can be converted into the ratio of any two integers.

But how can an infinite non-repeating decimal be represented on the number line?

"The Pythagorean Theorem?" Zhang Juzheng thought for a while and asked in doubt.

"Yes, the Pythagorean theorem." Zhu Yijun nodded, and at the position of 0 o'clock, he drew a straight line vertically, and a Cartesian coordinate system appeared on the paper, such as √2, you can use Pythagorean 1, its The length of the string is √1, and then use the compass to express it.

Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "For this rectangular coordinate system, I made up a wonderful story, saying that I saw a spider weaving a web, can each position of the spider be determined by a set of numbers? Then I looked at the corner of the wall , any point on the wall can be represented by a number pair, so the spider helped me invent the Cartesian coordinate system."

"Your Majesty..." Zhang Juzheng felt helpless, why does His Majesty like telling stories so much?Obviously, in order to solve various practical problems, various mathematical tools were invented to solve them, and a spider heuristic theory must be developed.

Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "The angle of the north pole in Shuntianfu is 39.98°. We drew the equator halfway up the globe. The angle of the north pole can be regarded as a dimension, but what about the longitude?"

"I put the curve of the previous reflecting telescope into this Cartesian coordinate system, and found that its longitude and latitude seem to have some magical rules."

"To be more specific, we express latitude and longitude as xy, and I found that the value of its vertical axis and the value of the horizontal axis are related as y=ax."

"Furthermore, does a random straight line also have a mapping relationship? For example, this oblique straight line, we found that this straight line can be expressed as y=kx, and these all pass through 0 points, then What about translation up and translation down? It can be expressed as y=kx+b."

Zhu Yijun enthusiastically explained the definition of mapping in functions, which is actually very simple. Points form lines, and lines form surfaces. Then points can be expressed in a coordinate system, and lines can also be expressed in an analytical formula.

The mathematical meaning of mapping is to reflect the relationship between numbers and numbers, while the geometric meaning of mapping is a collection of points.

Zhang Juzheng can understand it very easily. This is a mathematical tool specially developed by His Majesty in the process of exploring calculation theory. It is clear and clear at a glance.

That's what Zhu Yijun said, but it's just a mathematical tool. It's not meaningless for him to do these things. Mathematical science is the essence of all things.

Bypassing degrees is to use numbers to measure all things in the world, and then communicate with each other. Wang Guoguang has been working on using numbers to describe Daming’s national tax, so as to make Daming’s degrees more clear. This has extremely profound practical significance. After all, mathematics does not can be deceiving.

This is similar to the Nine Classics of the World that Zhang Juzheng has always advocated.

"Yi said: Introduce and extend it; touch it and grow it; the ability of the world is completed." Zhang Juzheng looked at the Cartesian coordinate system, using number pairs to express the position, and using the analytical formula to express the collection of points, and he was quite impressed. .

"Sir." Zhu Yijun put down his question board, looked at Zhang Juzheng and said, "It seems that Yu Shuai's 3000 people are not enough, can you add a little more as appropriate, after all, with the influx of silver, the powerful people who think they own silver , will give birth to some delusions, thinking that with gold and silver, you can do whatever you want."

"Hongmao Fan's gold and silver trap may be a more serious problem in Daming than Hongmao Fan."

Felipe II of Spain, the king of the empire on which the sun never sets, fell into a vicious cycle. The poorer he fought, the poorer he fought. The Netherlands was the most important source of tax revenue for the Spanish Empire, but the war took place in the territory, causing Great damage to industry and commerce resulted in lower taxes.

For example, in order to punish the widespread rebellion in the Netherlands, Philip II raised the price of wool to the Netherlands, causing the closure of more than [-] handicraft workshops in the Netherlands, and then the British won directly. Guy has been exporting woolen, and there is competition in Taixi and Spanish woolen.

After Spain broke its arm, the woolen business of the British immediately became popular, and absorbed a large number of unemployed craftsmen, becoming the mainstay of the woolen business.

Felipe II was at a loss for the Netherlands.

"I will pay attention." Zhang Juzheng said with a smile, the emperor was reminding Zhang Juzheng of the crisis hidden under the water, and Zhang Juzheng's answer was very simple, he would pay attention.

Zhu Yijun looked out of the window, the autumn wind rolled the curtains, and said with a smile: "The wind is blowing, sir, go slowly."

"Resignation." Zhang Juzheng left the side hall of the Wenhua Palace. The strong wind whizzed past, bringing a fierce northeasterly wind. After walking a few steps, he felt his cheeks were cold and it was raining.

"Yuanfu, Your Majesty sent us an umbrella and a cloak." Zhang Hong hurried out from the hall, and handed a woolen cloak and umbrella to Zhang Juzheng.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." Zhang Juzheng put on his cloak, opened his umbrella, and walked towards Wenyuan Pavilion step by step, handling state affairs as usual.

"Is your cloak a new gift from His Majesty?" Lu Tiaoyang asked with doubts and envy when he saw Zhang Juzheng returned to Wenyuan Pavilion, and looked at Zhang Juzheng's mink wool worsted woolen cloak with lotus green python pattern.

Zhang Juzheng took off his cloak, tidied himself up and nodded, "En."

"Holy family is prosperous." Lu Tiaoyang didn't know what to say, he could only say that the little emperor treated Zhang Juzheng, the emperor's master, really well.

Lu Tiaoyang handed a memorial to Zhang Juzheng, and said with a frown: "The Jin Party is clamoring for more cabinet ministers."

"Who are they going to recommend?" Zhang Juzheng took the memorial with a little doubt, shook his head and said, "Your Majesty will not agree."

The person recommended is Zhang Siwei, but His Majesty hates Zhang Siwei, and he hates Zhang Siwei undisguisedly. This kind of disgust is aversion to the clan party, even more to the party struggle, and also to the inappropriate government.

Wang Chonggu filled up the holes in the northwest, resettled the people, and reclaimed the wasteland. Within a few months, he completely opened up the upstream and downstream of the wool business, and initially established the official wool factory.

His Majesty's attitude towards Wang Chonggu immediately changed by multiplying by -1. One mouthful of a big military officer, one mouthful of a country's brachial pillar, as sunny as you want. Your Majesty is always very kind, my lord.

On the number line, a number multiplied by -1 represents the point, which is rotated 180 degrees around the origin.

"But the timing they chose was very appropriate. Right now the Northeast is mobilizing troops." Lu Tiaoyang was full of thoughts, and finally turned into a sigh. He shook his head and said, "Oh."

"Push Wang Chonggu." Zhang Juzheng held the memorial and said to Lu Tiaoyang with a smile: "Since the Jin Party wants to elect cabinet ministers, isn't Wang Chonggu more suitable than Zhang Siwei?"

"Non-Hanlin are not allowed to enter the cabinet. This is the rule after Emperor Yingzong." Lu Tiaoyang frowned. Zhang Juzheng was violating the law of his ancestors. .

Since the reign of Tianshun, non-jinshi did not enter the Hanlin, and non-Hanlin did not enter the cabinet. The ministers and ministers of the Ministry of Rites and Ministers of the North and the South were not appointed unless they were Hanlin.

Zhang Juzheng said with a smile: "Uncle Da Zong will not stop him."

Although the Ministry of Officials is inconvenient, the Ministry of Rites is convenient, so there is room for operation. Since the Jin Party wants to elect, it is better to elect Wang Chonggu.

As a candidate for Zhang Siwei, if the court meeting is passed, His Majesty will definitely veto it with one vote. Doesn't that intensify the contradiction between ministerial power and imperial power?

"Do you think Wang Chonggu is reliable in his work, or Zhang Siwei is reliable in his work? Anyway, Wang Chonggu has real skills, and he can really do it well if he does it for him. I say it's not easy to pay tribute, so why is he doing it well?" Zhang Juzheng still thinks It is more appropriate to let Wang Chonggu join the cabinet.

"Then I'll tell Uncle Da Zong to see what he thinks." Lu Tiaoyang thought for a while, put the memorial on the table, and planned to go to the Ministry of Rites.

Lu Tiaoyang had just left Wenyuan Pavilion, seeing the heavy wind and rain, one autumn rain and one cold, Lu Tiaoyang shivered.

Feng Bao happened to come to Wenyuan Pavilion holding an umbrella, and when he saw that Lu Tiaoyang was about to go out, he smiled and asked, "Where is Cifu going?"

"Go to the Ministry of Rites." Lu Tiaoyang replied flatly, Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao are friends, that is Zhang Juzheng.

The relationship between Lu Tiaoyang and Feng Bao was very ordinary, and the relationship between civil servants and eunuchs of Ming Dynasty was not easy.

Feng Bao didn't mind Lu Tiaoyang's attitude either. If the eunuch had a good relationship with the ministers, then the emperor should think about whether this house slave should sink the well. Feng Bao said with a smile: "The weather is getting colder. I sent the cloak to the courtiers, no, I sent it to Jifu."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En." Lu Tiaoyang did not expect that he also had a woolen cloak. His was also a crane cloak, but it was still somewhat different from Zhang Juzheng's.

Zhang Juzheng's cloak is a gift, and the python pattern is used on the front. The python pattern is not a python, but a four-clawed golden dragon.

However, Lu Tiaoyang's cloak does not have python patterns, which makes a huge difference.

Feng Bao came to Wenyuan Pavilion to deliver the gifts, and then rushed to the Yamen of the Six Departments. When he arrived at the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment, Wang Chonggu heard that the angel had come, and was frightened into a cold sweat.
After knowing that it was the emperor's gift, the heart that raised his throat fell back into his stomach.

"Feng Dadang, just a little meaning." Wang Chonggu took out a stack of salt notes and handed them out very smoothly.

Feng Bao shook his head with a smile and said: "It's a small thing, it's our family's head, and Da Si Koo Mo wants to harm our family."

"I just have some doubts. According to my official rank, I should be a golden pheasant of the second rank, not a crane of the first rank. Isn't this a bit presumptuous?" Wang Chonggu looked at the cloak, which was extremely happy, but also a little sad. Not the golden pheasant, but the crane.

Wang Chonggu's crown prince Shaobao was deprived because his daughter ordered his wife to use gold letters, so Wang Chonggu didn't add an official, he couldn't be a crane.

"Your Majesty specifically confessed that it is the crane." Feng Bao didn't hide it, and said with a smile: "The great Sikou has done the errand, and he has everything he should have."

The meaning of these words is very clear, if you can't handle errands, you should have no brains, then you will be gone.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!" Wang Chonggu's thoughts turned into one sentence. He affirmed what Zhang Juzheng said. His Majesty is very strict with officials, and his errands are handled well. The benefits to Ming Dynasty outweigh the disadvantages, and he can reflect the excitement of the imperial court. , There will be no shortage of celebrations.

"Da Si Kou stay here." Feng Bao, with a big tail, visited the six yamen, and when he came out from the Ministry of Rites, Xu Jue was taken aback and said, "It's gone, I remember that I followed the list given by my ancestors and made it clear." Just walked out the door."

There was still an official office that didn't go, so the cloaks were all distributed.

"You're not wrong." Feng Bao said cheerfully.

"Ah? What about the official cloak?" Xu Jue asked suspiciously.

Feng Bao's face was serious. He needed to maintain his majesty in front of his disciples and grandchildren. He seemed calm and said, "There was no such thing as him."

"Ah..." Xu Jue was stunned, His Majesty's heart was really smaller than the tip of a needle, he didn't even bother to be polite on the surface, and he refused to give him a woolen cloak.

At that time, when the court meeting of Wenhua Palace was held, all the other courtiers wore cloaks, only Zhang Han didn't. The scene was extremely embarrassing.

In terms of insulting people, the little emperor still maintained his usual standard.
