Ming Dynasty: At the beginning, the house was ransacked and the ancestral temple was burned down.

Chapter 45 Zhang Juzheng is dead!

"Who wrote this? Is he crazy?"

Shen Shixing became very irritable in a very rare way. The content of this anonymous memorial seemed to have almost taken away his calm and calm mind.

"This..." Xu Guo on the side was also stunned by the contents of this anonymous memorial. Seeing that Shen Shixing, who had always been a good man, was angry, he could not continue to talk about Wang Xijue's upcoming appointment to the cabinet.

"If this anonymous memorial were to be known to the ministers in the DPRK, I'm afraid it would cause quite a stir." Xu Guo said tentatively.

"That's not the key to the problem now!" Shen Shixing was still a little excited, looking like he was suppressing overwhelming anger, and said:

"The key now is who actually wrote this unscrupulous memorial! And how did it reach the cabinet through the General Affairs Department?"

"Rumo, don't get excited first." Xu Guo first comforted him hastily, and then said meaningfully:

"According to the rules, all memorials must first be sent to the General Affairs Department, which will sort and classify them and write a copy before they can be submitted to the emperor or sent to the cabinet for approval..."

Xu Guo was about to speak but stopped again, apparently there was something he had not said yet.

Shen Shixing heard something in the words. He changed his usual meandering manner and asked directly: "You mean, the emperor has already read this memorial, which is inhumane and inferior to pigs and dogs?"

At this time, Xu Guo was completely shocked. It was the first time that he saw Shen Shixing being so out of control. The usually elegant opponent actually said words like "inhumane" and "worse than pigs and dogs"!

In the past, when ministers pointed at Shen Shixing and scolded him, they didn't see any reaction from him, but now...

Furthermore, when Zhang Juzheng died, he remembered that Shen Shixing was not so excited... Although it was indeed very disrespectful to the deceased to open the coffin, but... the dead are not as important as the living, right?

Seeing that Shen Shixing was really angry, Xu Guo felt a little scared and did not dare to get into trouble again. After all, the other party was the chief minister of the cabinet and his immediate superior, so it was better not to offend him.

As for the matter of instigating Shen Shixing to join the cabinet, Xu Guo did not dare to be impatient anymore and could only think about it in the long term.

But one thing Xu Guo knows very well is that Wang Xijue must not be allowed to join the cabinet so easily!
  Once Wang Xijue enters the cabinet, the "anti-Zhang Party" people behind him will definitely work together to force Shen Shixing out of office!

By then, only Xu Guo and Wang Xijue will be left in the cabinet!
  In order of priority, after Shen Shi left, the position of chief minister of the cabinet should belong to Xu Guo, and Wang Xijue could only be in the position of second minister.

However, the 'rules' for ranking officials according to seniority in the Ming Dynasty were actually very complicated. In theory, they should be ranked according to official position, first come, first served, or age.

But the most important thing is actually-qualifications!
  This qualification is calculated from the time when you enter the Hanlin Academy.

For example, although Xu Guo is nearly ten years older than Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue, the year he won the Jinshi was one year later than Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue.

In this way, although Xu Guo is older, he is actually lower than Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue in terms of 'qualifications'.

Xu Guo knew very well that as soon as Shen Shixing left, he would not be able to defeat Wang Xijue and so many people behind him.

So he must find another 'helper' to check and balance Wang Xijue with him before Shen Shixing falls!

It's a pity that Shen Shixing is now in a bad mood because of Zhang Juzheng's incident, so Xu Guo has no choice but to put the matter aside for the time being and find a chance to break up with Shen Shixing another day.

While he was thinking about it, Xu Guo saw Shen Shixing holding the anonymous memorial and angrily walking out of Wenyuan Pavilion. He knew without looking that Shen Shixing must have gone to confront someone from the General Affairs Department.

……

Facts have proved that Shen Shixing was not prepared to go to the General Affairs Department to confront anyone, because he was almost certain that the emperor had already read this memorial!
  He said that the young Emperor, who was in good health, suddenly became unwell. It turned out that he was running away!
  Shen Shixing was excited, but he was not actually angry!
  On the contrary, he was excited!
  'Gui Zhang' has been down for so long, and he has endured it for so long. He's already had enough of it!

The current letter, which is worse than a beast, devoid of humanity and unconscionable, is the best trigger!
  Shen Shixing will not go to the General Affairs Department to confront someone. The place he wants to go is Liuke Langfang!

He wants those trolls who talk about 'morality' all day long to know about this in Shizhong! He wants all the ministers in the government and the public to know about this!

He wants to spread this memorial letter, which says that pigs are worse than dogs and humans and gods are angry, everywhere!
  He wants to mess things up and make things big!

"God is really helping me!"

Shen Shixing was extremely excited. At the same time, he was also wondering, what kind of talent could come up with such a bad idea of ​​opening a coffin? Could it be that he was possessed by a ghost?

How stupid!

……

Qianqing Palace. Drowsily, Zhu Yijun finally fell asleep.

It's just that he didn't sleep soundly this time. He had a dream again, a lot of dreams, very messy dreams.

Zhu Yijun first dreamed of his father, Longqing Emperor Zhu Zaijing.

For some reason, he couldn't even see his biological father's face clearly in the dream. He could only see his father surrounded by a group of chattering women from a distance.

"Father...Father?"

Zhu Yijun shouted to Zhu Zaijing and ran at the same time. However, no matter how he ran, his aloof father was always so far away from him. It seemed that this barrier could never be crossed.

His father was always surrounded by countless women, and his eyes were always on those women, and he was not even willing to take another look at his biological son...

Zhu Yijun was a little sad, but soon he was no longer sad. He was even a little angry, turned his head suddenly, and was about to leave cruelly.

However, when he turned around, he saw another person, a tall man whose body was covered with goose feathers and heavy snow.

The man's appearance is what Zhu Yijun is most familiar with, or it may be said that he will never forget it until his death.

At this moment, the heavy snow on the man's body had not yet been shaken off. He was looking at Zhu Yijun with a stern and scrutinizing gaze. The next moment, he angrily reprimanded:

"Your Majesty, it's 'Seboruye', how could you pronounce it as 'Sebeiruye'? How could you still make such a simple mistake?"

Zhu Yijun was so frightened by this stern shout that he quickly lowered his head. He was so flustered that he seemed to have forgotten that he was still an emperor. He reflexively admitted his mistake and said: "Mr. Zhang... I was wrong... It was Seboluye... I was wrong... "

As soon as the words were spoken, a large number of people suddenly appeared in the originally empty surroundings!

These people include ministers in the court and maids and eunuchs in the palace.

Zhu Yijun couldn't see their faces clearly, but he could hear their various taunts.

"Why don't you return to the emperor and be reprimanded like Zhang Juzheng's son?"

"Shh, keep your voice down. What if the little emperor hears you crying?"

"Gao Gong is right, how can a ten-year-old child become the emperor, hahaha!"

"I'm afraid the Zhu family's surname will be Zhang from now on!"

"..."

There were more and more taunts in his ears, and the ruthless words were like sharp knives and sharp arrows, piercing the heart and lungs of this hesitant young emperor!
  "Ah! Stop talking! I'm going to kill you!"

Zhu Yijun was so angry that he wanted to kill everyone here with his own hands, but just as he was shouting and trying to rush towards these people, the man blocked his way again!

Suddenly, the anger turned into fear...

Zhu Yijun had to admit that he was really afraid of Zhang Juzheng.

Perhaps his fear and unwillingness reached the extreme, Zhu Yijun woke up. When he suddenly woke up, he was sweating profusely, and his eyes were full of panic and fear!
  He asked this question out of nowhere:
  "Where is Zhang Juzheng?"

Zhang Jing, who had been waiting for a long time, was worried about how to report the successive "bad things" to the emperor. Now the emperor woke up and his heart suddenly lifted.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Juzheng has died a long time ago." Zhang Jing answered cautiously, struggling with how to start the next conversation.

Upon hearing this answer, Zhu Yijun relaxed his muscles instantly and smiled happily, like a fish that finally escaped from the restraints of the straw rope and returned to the water to swim.

"Dead...yes, he is dead, he is already dead...hahaha...he is dead!"

Zhu Yijun laughed, the more he laughed, the crazier he became!
  Zhang Juzheng is dead! No one can control him anymore!
  He is the emperor! He is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty! Daming belongs to their Zhu family! The Ming Dynasty belongs to Zhu Yijun!
  It’s not Zhang Juzheng’s!

Zhu Yijun laughed more and more crazily, but what Zhang Jing said next made him stop laughing completely!
  　Big guys! happy New Year! Please read it!
