Chapter 829: Gao Laosan is back again (I)
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
The official ship sailed away, and Xu Gelao, the first assistant of the two dynasties who had been an official for 45 years, finally left Beijing. Two months later, Xu Jie finally returned to his hometown in Songjiang after a long absence, and the officials and gentry of the whole city greeted him at the dock, no matter what other places said about Xu Ge Lao, he was their pride.
And his younger brother, who had been dismissed from his home because of his brother's impeachment of his brother, fell into shame and fear after learning the news of his brother's Zhishi. So that day, under the watchful eye of everyone, he only wore a middle single, carried a thorn on his back, and knelt down on the dock to greet his brother.
However, Xu Jie didn't even look at it, so he walked in front of him, boarded the sedan chair and left......
Although it is far from the time for his curtain call. But there is no doubt that this Xu Ge Lao, who has been dominating the situation for a long time, controlling the situation and writing history, is no longer the protagonist of the stage of Daming.
Looking back on his long political career, we can see that in his generation, he has been rectified by others, and has done good things and bad things. For the vast majority of his political history, he has been quiet and has made few achievements, only fulfilling the duties of a qualified bureaucrat. But just those few things are enough to make him shine in the annals of history and be admired and admired by everyone.
To be fair, he is the most powerful chief assistant in the history of the Ming Dynasty, the strongest bureaucrat in 200 years, and there is no one.
However, why didn't he suddenly go into the wilderness and not have too much lànghuā? Although there are many people who write to keep it, the emperor does not accept it, and everyone will forget it. Although there are many people who come to Tongzhou to see him off, most of them have their own abacus, and there seem to be few who are really reluctant to let him go.
Even Zhang Juzheng, who he loved the most, thought that although he needed to rely on the cultivation of his teacher, if the teacher continued to govern, it would be useless for the country, so he still took a profit...... Even after Hu Zongxian's case, Zhang Juzheng had the same idea, not because he abolished the public, but because he wanted to put the country first, which was the difference between him and the vast majority of officials.
But this is not to say that Xu Jie's reputation is notorious, on the contrary, after taking the initiative to abdicate, his reputation is extremely high and his reputation is excellent, and he has become synonymous with indifference to fame and fortune.
But why doesn't everyone have a grudge for him? For his reign has done no good to the nation. Only an official with a little insight knows that this respected old man, the early and smooth abdication of Xian is the last contribution he can make.
It's not that people's hearts are like water, and officials are ruthless. It's that he's really out of place anymore.
Daming is really in danger today...... All kinds of evils are like mountains, land annexation is serious, the financial resources of the imperial court are exhausted, the foreign enemies on the nine sides are watching, and the people inside are rising. If you don't cheer up, if you don't eradicate stubborn diseases, you really won't have time!
It has reached the most dangerous time, and it is necessary for the heroes who are majestic and strategic to take on the role of the society to save the day.
And Xu Ge Lao is obviously not such a hero.
Of course, he has risen to a high position below one person, but in this ** official system, it is power and skill that determine whether you can get to the top or not. Therefore, those who climb to high positions and control the power of the state are not necessarily excellent politicians. Most likely, he is just a master of power, or even a mediocre bureaucrat.
How to coordinate the country's economy, people's livelihood and military equipment? Where does the systemic disease come from? How to remove ** to decay and vibrate laziness? A politician is going to be able to play this game of chess!
The administrative bureaucrats, on the other hand, only know how to make interpersonal relations. How to fix a favor and how to settle a cronies is all they have to do...... Helplessly, since he grasped the state power, all of Xu Gelao's jīng power has been used on this. What kind of position to arrange for cronies, how to make everyone restrain each other and not get out of the way, and how to get rid of haters, this is where all the strength of a country's first assistant lies.
As for state affairs, Xu Ge Lao advocated recuperation and leniency.
State affairs, the Ming Dynasty has reached the edge of the cliff, where can you still be allowed to do nothing, rest and recuperate? As for the so-called 'leniency,' it is nothing more than indulging corrupt officials and corrupt officials; the so-called 'making peace with China and the rest of the world' is not just swallowing one's anger even after being beaten!
Don't seek merit, but seek no fault, reactive is fault!
Therefore, he Xu Jie, which is condensed from the jīng hua of bureaucratic politics in the two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, is worthy of the title of the first bureaucrat.
If a great power is led by such a super-bureaucracy, the result is bound to be super-stability. And for a large country like the Ming Dynasty, which has a large territory and weak military equipment, a large population and is too exploited, stability means that it is declining. This is an important reason why this country, since its establishment, has been in an unstoppable decline.
Now that the country has slipped to the brink of a precipice, it will be nothing more than a super-bureaucrat with such a super-bureaucrat at the helm.
All the people on the ship don't want this ship to be finished, since you, Xu Ge, are at the helm and can't lead this ship out of danger, then you can only change someone......
On April 7, the second year of Longqing, Xu Ge had not yet arrived in his hometown, and the holy decree of recovering the old minister was sent to Xinzheng, Henan.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Henan Political Envoy Division, Henan Province, Xinzheng County.
A team of knights galloped quickly in the direction of Gaojiazhuang.
In a few days, it will be the beginning of summer, and the wheat fields that cannot be seen at a glance are already green and knee-long. The morning light shines through the mist and shines on the green leaves stained with lù beads, shining with a rainbow of countless xiǎoxiǎo. In this dreamlike sè color, everything is so vibrant...... Let the Son of Heaven roar from the field into the clouds; The young swallows flew close to the ears of wheat and flew with their wings, and they looked a little nervous; Quails roam leisurely in the ridges of the fields, like farmers in brown linen clothes; The oriole bird sings gracefully in the tree with the white locust huā......
Gaojiazhuang is hidden in this picturesque idyllic scenery. As the name suggests, most people will think that most of the people here have the surname Gao, and it seems to be an ordinary farm.
That's only half true, it's true that most of the people here have the surname Gao, but this is by no means an ordinary farm. At this time, when you walk into the village, you will hear the sound of Langlang reading from the ancestral hall. When I went in, I saw that there were good guys, but there were only a few hundred people in Zhuangzi, and there were seventy or eighty big xiǎo teenagers who were reading...... According to the proportion of the population, all school-age children are studying here. In an age when three generations of rich peasants could feed one scholar, this was nothing short of a miracle......
The students also cherish the opportunity to study, although the husband has not yet come, everyone shakes their heads and is engrossed in the endorsement, even the original most skinny children, do not dare to slack off.
And when the black-faced teacher, dressed in a half-worn green sermon robe, wearing a scarf, with a thick beard, a square face and a wide mouth, and a profound law, appeared at the entrance of the school, the sound of reading stopped abruptly, and all the students sat precariously, looking at the gentleman with longing on their faces.
Mr. Teach's eyes were deep, and his steps were powerful.
"Ask Mr. ...... early" After he stood still, the students got up and saluted.
"Sit down." The voice is deep and loud.
Once the students were seated, he began to check the endorsements, but his method was different from that of a typical teacher. Instead of coming up one by one, the students were divided into five groups according to their respective courses, and the group leader was appointed to be responsible for checking the endorsement. He walked around with his hands behind his back and his eyes closed, although so many people were reciting different books, and the sound was extremely noisy, but as long as there were those who had not memorized well and the group leader had let go, he could hear them immediately. When everyone finished memorizing, he pointed up these books that had not been memorized, and where everyone memorized them wrongly, he said exactly what he said, which made the students very surprised, and none of them dared to steal Jiān to play slippery.
This can greatly shorten the time to check the endorsement, so that the gentleman has more time to explain the jīng essentials.
Today is no exception, Mr. slightly closed his eyes, walking around the class, and the students are working hard to endorse. But the sound of mén interrupted the harmonious scene, and the students' voices stopped abruptly, and the gentleman looked at mén with a dark face.
I saw the village chief standing at the entrance of Mén with a heart on his face, and said to the teacher: "Third uncle, an angel has arrived ......"
"Go out ......" the teacher said coldly, "It's class time, let them wait!" ”
"But ......," the village chief xiǎo said.
"Get out!" Mr. Teaching roared.
Frightened, the village chief hurriedly hugged his head and ran away.
"Endorsement, who told you to stop!" Seeing that the students were dumbfounded, Mr. Teaching took out the ring ruler. According to the precepts of clan studies, if you are not single-minded when you study, you will be beaten with ten precepts for the first offense.
After beating all the children's left hands into red steamed buns, Mr. Teaching said in a deep voice: "You must concentrate on reading, otherwise it will be time-consuming, so it is better to go back to work in the field!" Remember! ”
Although the students were beaten and flew straight to tears, they all nodded obediently, and then continued to endorse.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the morning, no one dared to disturb again, and when it was time to break school and eat at noon, the teacher came to the front hall of the ancestral hall, and saw several brocade guards wearing flying fish suits, nailed behind a big eunuch in python clothes like stakes.
The eunuch was sitting there drinking tea, but when he saw him come in, he quickly got up and said, "Slave Shi Xing, I've seen the elder Ge." ”
Mr. Teaching was a little surprised and said, "Why did Gonggong Shi come in person." ”
"Of course there's something important." Shi Xing smiled and said, "Gao Gong takes the order!" ”
"The minister Gao Gong respectfully invites St. Ann ...... "This teacher turned out to be Gao Gong Gao Suqing, the second assistant of the cabinet who was dismissed.
"St. Ann!" Shi Xing read out the holy decree of recovering the high arch in front of the incense table that had been placed.
From beginning to end, Gao Gong's expression was the same, but there was a shock in his heart, and he exclaimed again and again: "He actually did it, how did he do it?!" ’
What kind of character is this, and what has he done, that can make Gao Ge Lao, who has already been pampered, so surprised, this matter has to start from Gao Gonggang's return to his hometown last year.
It is said that at this time a year ago, Gao Ge Lao went down to the wilderness in the sound of 'lifting the arch of the dynasty' and returned to his hometown in Xinzheng. But along the way, he thought of Xu Jie's ugly face and the shameless abuse of those officials, and he couldn't help but be angry. Along the way, I was angry and hateful, and I was drenched in the rain, but as soon as I returned to Xinzheng, I fell ill, and I was still very sick, and I didn't get better in many ways.
Just when the house was in a hurry, a man who called himself 'Shao Daxia' appeared, and he kept saying that he could get rid of the disease and cure Gao Ge Lao. Gao Fu saw that he was long and broad-shouldered, graceful, and his gestures were quite personable, and he didn't look simple, so he brought this person in with the mentality of trying it out.
Pretending to look and hear and ask, Shao Daxia leaned into Gao Gong's ear and whispered a few words. Then I saw that the old man of Gao Ge, who had been lying in Chuáng for many days, sat up and shouted to set the table and banquet, and wanted to hold the cup with Shao Daxia!
Although his family felt that he had just recovered from a serious illness and was not suitable for drinking, he could be in a better mood than anything else, so they followed the instructions and rectified a table of banquets.
The matter involved confidentiality, the high arch retreated left and right, and he didn't even want the girl ring who poured wine, and he personally held the pot and drank with Shao Daxia.
"Mr. Shao, say that you are friends with Shen Jiangnan?" After three rounds of drinking, Gao Gong asked, "I don't know how you met?" ”
Shao Fang knew that Gao Gong was checking his family, so he took a sip of wine and said with a bitter face: "The three-year-old child has no mother, it's a long story." I just bragged to you, how dare the grass people climb Shen Ge Lao, we just fought with him. ”
Gao Gong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then laughed and said, "So, you weren't sent by Shen Jiangnan?" ”
"No," Shao Fang shook his head and said, "Not only do the grass people and Shen Ge Lao have no fate, but they also have some festivals. ”
"So, I don't need to accept Jiangnan's love?" Gao Gong looked at Shao Fangdao with flickering eyes.
"It has nothing to do with him," Shao Fang said, "Why do you accept his affection?" ”
"Hehe......" Gao Gong just laughed, no matter how clear this person was, he also knew that it must have been sent by Shen Mo. Then he cooperated: "Since you weren't sent by Shen Jiangnan, then what are you here for?" ”
"I'm here for you!" Shao Fang's eyes widened.
"Coming for me?" Gao Gong said lightly: "You knew me before?" ”
"It's the first time I've met," Shao Fang said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's better to meet than to be famous!" As he spoke, he leaned over and said mysteriously: "I look at the old man's anger, and he is not an idle person at all......
"Oh, you still look at faces?" Gao Gong smiled and said with a smile.
"Mai and Liuzhuang have both studied for a few years...... Shao Daxia brought out the good nòng and mysterious habits of the people in the rivers and lakes again-
