Zheng Zheng said with tears in his eyes, "Shibo, there is no hope for this court, I have already prepared my plan to resign and return to my hometown." ”

Zheng Zheng invited his clan uncle Zheng Sanjun to discuss his resignation and return to his hometown, he was an eight-grade official in worship, the official position is not big, but he is directly responsible for compiling Chinese textbooks for the emperor's primary school textbooks, which is a position that everyone envies, not to mention that Zheng Zheng and Zheng Yuelin have seen the emperor, and Zheng Yuelin is well known to everyone on the emperor's northern tour, so the Zheng family is the new favorite of Ming officialdom during this time.

Zheng Sanjun, the official of the Ministry of Officials, uses the chapter of the word, and is a member of Jiande. In the twenty-sixth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1598), he was awarded the county governor of the Yuan family, and was appointed as Langzhong of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, and returned to the prefect of Germany, and was the deputy envoy of Fujian University. At the beginning of the Apocalypse, he was called Guanglu Shaoqing and changed to the emperor, he opposed Wei Zhongxian's eunuch party and established the dynasty. At the beginning of Chongzhen, the official worshiped the Nanjing household department Shangshu, and later transferred to the ministry of the minister.

There were a total of four people present, Zheng Zheng, Wen Zhenmeng, Zheng Yuelin and Zheng Sanjun, Wen Zhenmeng and Zheng Zheng were friends, they were idle at home, their talents and fame, and they were spread in the Ming Dynasty, but they offended the eunuchs at the beginning, plus they liked to criticize current politics, plus they were late bloomers, and they became Jinshi in their fifties, so on the one hand, they were the reason why they were old, and on the other hand, they were not used to the current situation, so they have not been an official.

Wen Zhenmeng was a Ming Dynasty official and calligrapher. The first name is from Ding, the word text, the name Xiangnan, alias Zhanzhi, a Zhan Village, Han nationality, Ming Nan Zhili Changzhou (now Suzhou, Jiangsu) people. Wen Zhengming's great-grandson. Born wonderful, pointing upwards, shooting people, and the statue of the world is no different from the statue of the world. At the age of fifty, he became a jinshi, and changed the first year of Xizong, and the court was against the world. Chongzhen's first worship department left waiter. He is also a fellow of Tokaku University. Wen Zhenmeng loves "Chu Ci". It is quite self-comparable.

Zheng Sanjun has not yet spoken. Wen Zhenmeng sighed, "Brother Zheng Xianxian, can't you still see what the emperor means?" This is a completely cold-blooded and ruthless emperor, the Ming Dynasty is in his hands, and there is only one or two years left, if he doesn't respect the law, how can he settle down? ”

Zheng Sanjun also sighed, "Today is above the court." The old man didn't say anything, Lord Sun Chengzong and Lord Sun Shenxing were almost killed in the palace! Such a scene, so that the old man can't believe that this is what happened in the court of the Ming Dynasty, you are all loyal people among my Ming students, you have any ideas, the old man is not persuaded, but this emperor is indeed young and frivolous, I guess he himself does not know what to do. ”

Zheng Yuelin listened to the conversation between the three of them, and they were talking about the emperor's not, but instead had the intention of speaking for the emperor, and she herself had a lot of dissatisfaction with the emperor. But when someone said that Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen was inspected, she was more uncomfortable than hearing anything!

"Father. Uncle Wen, Grandpa Zheng, what you said, you didn't stand in the overall situation of the Ming Dynasty to consider the problem, the emperor's methods may be a little ruthless, but the Ming Dynasty is now full of famine, if you don't pay attention to business, then how to solve the famine, if you want to reuse business, if you don't change the current law, how to make business develop? Zheng Yuelin didn't care if there was a little girl here to speak, and she came out coldly to defend the emperor.

Zheng Sanjun was secretly surprised, as a servant of the Ministry and a member of the court, of course he knew about Zheng Yuelin's northern tour with the emperor, but after that, the emperor did not recruit Zheng Yuelin into the palace, which made the people below not know if there was anything substantive between Zheng Yuelin and the emperor? Hearing Zheng Yuelin say this, of course she didn't dare to say anything, so she thought about leaving.

Zheng Zheng was furious, he talked to his friends, Zheng Yuelin never interjected, I don't know what's wrong today!? "You are presumptuous, here are all uncles and grandfathers, do you have the right to speak?"

Wen Zhenmeng waved his hand, "Alas, Brother Zheng Zhenxian, this world matter, people in the world can talk about it, don't talk about Yue Lin, I think what she said also has some truth, Yue Lin, do you think that the only thing that can save the world now is the emperor's new law of blindly valuing business and suppressing agriculture?" Is it also advisable to let everyone not respect the gift of humility? Is it right to let co-education, let women be officials, let businessmen have the same status as officials who have earned fame by studying hard, and separate legislation to protect them? ”

Zheng Yuelin made a small face, and didn't pay attention to her father's reprimand, and when she saw Wen Zhenmeng talking to her, she said, "Yes, I just think that the emperor's methods are too cruel, and there is no problem with valuing commerce and suppressing agriculture, what happened to the merchants?" What happened to the farmers? And what happened to the officials? What happened to the students? What happened to the woman? The Buddha said that all living beings are equal, and the ideas of the sages are not necessarily all right, the time has come for the Ming Dynasty to reform, I don't think there is any problem, the more people who do things, so that more and more people are involved in the construction of the whole country, this will not make the development of the whole country faster? ”

These words were mentioned in the emperor's diary that Zheng Yuelin saw from the notebook that Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen carried, and she agreed with such a point of view at that time, but she didn't expect the emperor's means to realize his point of view was so cruel, so although Zheng Yuelin had an awkward quarrel with Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen, but in her heart, she did not oppose the emperor's thoughts, in this era, Zheng Yuelin is actually a very progressive, very advanced girl in thought, This is also one of the reasons why Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen likes Zheng Yuelin so much.

Wen Zhenmeng heard Zheng Yuelin's words, and Zheng Sanjun and Zheng Zheng were all surprised! Especially Zheng Zheng, her daughter was actually very opposed to the emperor's approach, but now why has she suddenly become the emperor's explainer? And you can get to the root of the problem at once!

Wen Zhenmeng looked at Zheng Jun, and then at Zheng Sanjun, he knew that Zheng Zheng was also able to write gorgeous literary zao, and when it came to political opinions, it was actually not very good, Wen Zhenmeng mainly wanted to hear Zheng Sanjun's opinion, "Lord Zheng, I think what Miss Zheng just said also has some truth, what do you think?" ”

Zheng Sanjun sighed slightly, "There are no outsiders here, and the old man is not hiding it, in fact, the old man is already disheartened by the court, the emperor's thoughts, we can't keep up, if we really do what the emperor wants, even if it saves Daming, even if it temporarily solves some thorny problems, but if you do that, is Daming still Daming?" Who can live in such a market society that does not respect etiquette and religion, values business and suppresses agriculture? The old man felt chills when he thought about it.
