Zhang Juzheng's analysis is very correct, there is a problem with the Metropolitan Procuratorate after Jiajing, but this is not a problem with the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but a problem with the entire Ming officialdom.

The Ming Dynasty's official grade is generally not high, but there is nothing in the heavens and the earth that they can't control, this system is very advanced, at least in all the countries of the Ming Dynasty, no country has such a supervision agency as the Ming Dynasty.

But the same advanced supervision organization also has a very serious drawback: the news is heard, this is the power given to them by Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, and it is the essence of the speech official and the poison of the speech official.

The rumor gave the official the power to impeach the official if he heard anything, and the impeached official could only be suspended and returned to his hometown after the official handbook was delivered to the court and was not left by the emperor.

That is to say, the official said: Chen Mu is a big fool.

If this manuscript is not kept by the emperor, Chen Mu must write to defend himself: Chen Mu is not a big fool.

From the magistrate to the governor, to the governor of the ministry and cabinet members, you have to go home and rest when you write a letter from the official, and the court will verify that it is okay before you can go back to continue working, and there is no punishment for the official.

Because Emperor Taizu gave them the right to hear about it.

But Wanli felt that in his time, no.

"It's not that I can't do it, it's that I can't do it."

In the Qianqing Palace, there was a small square table on the low dragon bed, and Wanli, who was cross-legged, took the teapot and poured the three teacups on the table in turn, squinting his eyes and whispering mysteriously: "I think the teacher deliberately did not let me know this, but said that the official atmosphere was bad." ”

In addition to Wanli, the participants of the dragon bed tea party in the Qianqing Palace also included King Lu and the eunuch Wang An.

Xiao Luwang looked at the teacup with bright eyes, and his two calves were split into a figure; Wang An sat with a whisk of dust, in fact, neither of them could understand what the emperor was talking about, nor could they understand what the emperor was thinking, so they could only nod slowly in response to the emperor.

At this point, Wang An, who is a few years older, is stronger than King Lu, and he can still talk: "Why did grandpa say this? ”

"I heard about it, Grandpa Taizu set it, but there was such a problem in the year of Hongwu? No. Why did my grandfather and father go bad? ”

Wanli is very good at finding problems, he asked and answered himself: "The teacher only said that the atmosphere is bad, and all officials have problems, but this is not the reason why the officials have changed from performing things to today's party, there is no such reason in the world...... He thought I didn't know, but I knew. ”

Saying that, the emperor who was sitting on the desolation of the four seas and the desolation said quietly: "Because someone saw it, they saw that Xu Ge Lao used Yan Ge Lao to fight Yan Ge Lao, and the teacher and Gao Ge Lao Dou used Yan Guan to defeat Xu Ge Lao, and the teacher used Yan Guan to defeat Gao Ge Lao." ”

"I have settled accounts for the officials, yes, just like settling accounts for the Ministry of Households, at the beginning of every struggle, several groups of officials have been convicted for their words; When the dust settles, some of the officials will re-enter the imperial court due to the recommendation of various people and the approval of the cabinet, and their official positions will be higher than in the past. ”

Wanli raised his eyebrows at King Lu, pushed the teacup over, and said: "I don't think I know, this atmosphere is broken by their fighting, of course, not only is there a problem with the official, but it is not only the official who speaks and does things to them, but also the official who gets rewarded afterwards." ”

"As long as the first one is rewarded, it will follow one after the other; Originally, he would rather be a speech official than be a Beijing official, but now no one is willing to go out at all, and it is hard work to be released. ”

After that, Wanli's expression was very proud, and the little head raised his head and said, "They don't know, I have my eyeliner, I know everything!" ”

Don't look at the pride he said, in fact, he has any eyeliner, in fact, what he really wants to express is: I should also have my own eyeliner.

In fact, in Zhu Yuanzhang's planning, the officials are naturally the emperor's eyeliner, these people are lowly and powerful, young and vigorous, and those ills that have fallen after a long time without officialdom are righteous enough, although they are free from the civil officials and their own faction, but one day they will return to the civil official ranks.

They were born to be emperors.

Of course, and most importantly, any official will know what kind of person the emperor he serves.

Zhu Yuanzhang gave unprecedented power to the speech officials, but during the Hongwu period, it was precisely the era when the speech officials were the most afraid to hear about it...... If it weren't for the conclusive evidence, whoever dared to say anything in the court would be stripped of his skin and hung up at the entrance of the yamen if he didn't get it right.

Zhu Di's era is similar, firstly, there is Taizu Yuwei, and secondly, these four uncles have done all the nephews, how can it be a good fool.

The good official atmosphere has been maintained until Zhengde, and people are no longer too afraid of severe punishment and harsh laws, but they can't control Wuzong; The real watershed is Jiajing.

Emperor Daojun's restrained temperament and tricky play with power made the royal family lose the natural eyes and ears of speech officials.

"Now if you want to take back people's hearts, it's hard! I must first establish my prestige, starting with the provinces to learn political and political primary schools. Wang An, you go to the military room and bring my little book...... Forget it, don't take it, I remember it's more than two hundred and seventy. ”

"Let the household department build roads while repairing primary schools, and the government-run primary schools that are built should be different from social studies, learn my teaching materials, and then open new subjects in the imperial examination in two years...... It's been too long, and the teacher hasn't been in good health lately, so I have to get the power of the ministry in my hands before the teacher sends a minister. ”

In Wanli's view, Zhang Juzheng Zhishi is an excellent point in time, before Zhishi, he could not blatantly find Zhang Juzheng to ask for this power, and after Zhishi, it is likely that the next first assistant will still hold Zhang Juzheng's past power.

All he had to do was to get the power of the Ministry of Officials and Households for a period of time after Zhang Juzheng's appointment, which meant that his prestige had to reach its peak.

There is no doubt about his words.

Whether it is the cabinet or the celebrant of ceremonies.

After thinking for a long time, Wanli asked Wang An: "The eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant is in charge, is there a decent candidate in the palace?" Teacher Zhishi, Feng Daban'er also has to go, I have a candidate for the first assistant of the cabinet, but the master of ceremonies does not know who can be used. ”

Decent candidates? This is too difficult for Wang An, there are many decent people among the eunuchs, maybe there are not many who are the master of ceremonies, and they are all Feng Bao's people.

Before he could figure out who could do it, the emperor once again asked himself: "Chen Ju can, he and Zhang Ge are both proficient in foreign affairs, and they are really good candidates." ”

"Elder Zhang Ge?" Wang An thought about it before analyzing which Zhang Ge Lao it was, and among the several cabinet auxiliary ministers, only Zhang Han had something to do with foreign affairs, and said: "I'm afraid that Zhang Han is not the opponent of Zhang Siwei and Shen Shixing, Your Majesty will make their internal fighting even more powerful." ”

"It doesn't matter, Zhang Ge doesn't have to fight with others when he is old, as long as he can help me for a year and a half. In a year and a half, I will be able to gain prestige, and what is more powerful in this world than Lili Wuliangha Sanwei? ”
