Chapter 305 Envy and Jealousy
Just when Zhu Zaijing was talking to Zhao Zhenji and Li Chunfang about Hongwen Hall and Daming Bookstore, Zhang Juzheng finally arrived in front of Prince Yu's Mansion.
Just when he arrived, Gao Gong came back leisurely from outside Chongwen Gate.
When Zhang Juzheng was about to walk into the palace in a hurry, Gao Gong saw him. Gao Gong stuck his head out of the carriage and shouted, "Uncle, wait a minute."
Zhang Juzheng listened. When someone called him, he couldn't help but stop. He turned around and searched with his eyes, and saw Gao Gong.
Gao Gong looked at Zhang Juzheng and saw him, and shouted again, "Uncle, don't be impatient, wait for me."
Zhang Juzheng stood in front of the palace and waited for Gao Gong's carriage to stop before getting out of the carriage. After coming down, Zhang Juzheng bowed to Gao Gong, "Brother Suqing, how is the matter?"
Gao Gong showed a cheerful smile and said: "It doesn't matter, everything is under control. Later You have to go to Chongwenmen with me to help this Haigangfeng."
Zhang Juzheng looked at Gao Gong, who looked optimistic, and couldn't help but have a suspicious look on his face. Zhang Juzheng turned to Gao Gong again. Gong asked: "Brother Su Qing, what is going on? Mr. Xiao Ge has already mobilized people from the Three Laws Division to intervene in this matter."
"Mr. Xu Ge also told me. The problem this time is extremely serious. We must try to get rid of the prince and not be disturbed by this matter.”
Gao Gong chuckled, "Mr. Xu Ge meant to sacrifice Hai Rui, right?"
Zhang Juzheng had a slight embarrassment on his face, but did not speak.
After all, Xu Jie is his mentor. Others can gossip about Xu Jie, but he absolutely cannot.
If he said so, it would not only be a problem of character, but also a problem of thinking.
You must know that the relationship between heaven and earth, king, parent, and teacher is the lifeblood of Confucianism and cannot be overstepped at will.
The relationship between disciple and teacher is similar to the relationship between son and Lao Tzu.
So according to the Confucian concept of filial piety, disciples must never say anything bad about their husband, especially in front of others.
So after Zhang Juzheng heard Gao Gong say Xu Jie's words, he could only be embarrassed and said nothing.
Gao Gong looked at Zhang Juzheng's expression and naturally saw Zhang Juzheng's embarrassment.
Gao Gong sighed with emotion, "Our Mr. Xu Ge is good at everything, and his overall view is unparalleled. But if he is like this, isn't it going to frustrate those people with lofty ideals who have placed their hope in him? ”
"In my opinion, although the current Mr. Xu Ge is gentle and courteous, he may be the second Mr. Yan Ge in the future. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty from now on will still have to place its hopes on the prince and you and me."
"Uncle, I am very optimistic about you. The prince treats you the same way. I hope you will insist on doing what a gentleman should do and what he should not do in the future. Don't do it in a hurry just for the sake of the so-called temporary situation. Decisive. "
"Although this can solve the temporary difficulties, it will cause endless troubles."
Gao Gong is more direct in speaking and is not afraid of offending others. He completely makes Zhang Juzheng a good man. The younger brother of the palace, and someone who can fight side by side to help King Yu in the future and open up a new situation for the Ming Dynasty.
Zhang Juzheng was very moved after listening to Gao Gong's words.
However, their work styles and personal personalities are still different, and Zhang Juzheng has been known as a child prodigy since he was a child. He is also conceited about his talent, so he has always been willing to be subordinate to others and help others. This is not in line with Zhang Juzheng's character and pursuit. .
But now is not the time for him to show off his talents. Gao Gong is obviously more important than him in King Yu's heart. It would be unwise for him to try to challenge Gao Gong's status at this time.
So, Zhang Juzheng naturally accepted Gao Gong's teachings with an open mind. Zhang Juzheng said: "Brother Su Qing's words will naturally be borne in mind by me. I will never let Brother Su Qing down."
Gao Gong looked at such persuasive advice. Zhang Juzheng felt extremely happy.
He really admired Zhang Juzheng's talent and ability, but it was a pity that the mark of Mr. Xu Ge on him was too heavy.
Now he can cling to Xu Jie's high branches and use Xu Jie's advantages to complete the path that ordinary people cannot complete in more than ten years, and get closer to the center of power in advance.
But in the future, once Xu Jie really becomes the second Yan Song, Zhang Juzheng at that time may become constrained because of this teacher-student relationship, and will not be able to carry out some good governance that can be carried out. Keep going.
So Gao Gong's current idea is to keep Zhang Juzheng under his control as much as possible to prevent him from getting into trouble with Xu Jie in the future.
Everything is led by Gao Gong and he just carries it.
Gao Gong said: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Let's go see the prince first."
Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng temporarily ended their conversation in front of the prince's palace, and they came to the palace together. Then, under the leadership of the servants of the mansion, they went to the small courtyard of Zhu Zaijing's study to wait for Zhu Zaijing's reception.
Zhu Zaijing, who was talking to Zhao Zhenji and Li Chunfang, heard his servants reporting that Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng were back.
Zhu Zaijing said to Meng Chong on the side: "Meng Da, please do your best. You go and take the two gentlemen to wait for me in the greenhouse next door. I and Chief Editor Zhao and Chief Editor Li will tell Hongwen again Let’s take care of the matter with the library and Daming Bookstore.”
After hearing Zhu Zaijing’s instructions, Meng Chong also responded, then went out to see Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, and took them to Nuan next door. Waiting in the room.
Zhao Zhenji and Li Chunfang felt envious when they heard Zhu Zaijing's words. Zhu Zaijing called Gao and Zhang "sir", which was such an exciting word.
It's a pity that King Yu never gave them such honorifics. It's really enviable and jealous.
However, the mentality of the two of them has been adjusted very well. They also know that Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng came to Prince Yu's palace to serve as ministers and lecturers. It was also a matter of great luck and hard power behind them.
At that time, King Yu was overly sad because of the sudden death of Prince Zhuang Jing. In order to comfort King Yu, His Majesty the Emperor asked Gao Gong to come on the recommendation of Mr. Yan Ge.
Zhang Juzheng is even more incomparable. Zhang Juzheng is Mr. Xu Ge's beloved disciple. Mr. Xu Ge, with good intentions, recommended Zhang Juzheng to His Majesty the Emperor to study in his mansion for the sake of his disciple's future.
Therefore, comparing the good luck and strength of these two people, even though Zhao Zhenji and Li Chunfang believed that they were as talented and learned as Gao Zhang, they had to admit that they were a step slower and lost the benefit of teaching King Yu to study.
Zhu Zaijing came back to his senses and continued to look at Zhao Zhenji and Li Chunfang. He could also see the envy and jealousy in their hearts, but Zhu Zaijing just pretended not to know anything.
What he wants is this sense of differential treatment, so that Zhao Zhenji and Li Chunfang can clear their positions and work properly in Hongwen Hall and Daming Bookstore, and not always think about "educating" themselves.
Zhu Zaijing said: "Everything about Hongwen Hall and Daming Bookstore is very important. You two must not think that you can get things done by drinking tea and chatting in the office. Many things still need to be done. You need to do it yourself. Today, I will give you two a new task and deadline.”
“It is now November and a half, and there is still one and a half months before the Chinese New Year, and the annual vacation after the fifteenth day of the first month. There are still two months until the end. These two months are not long, but they are not short either. I hope that after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, you can come up with a share for me to deliver to His Majesty. ”
Zhao Zhenji and Li Chunfang stood up and worshiped: "I will obey the prince's order and will definitely give him a satisfactory answer before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."
