Chapter 1 Get moving

The emperor wanted to give Zhang Juzheng a posthumous title of "Wen". After the news spread, it shocked countless people instantly, and many people's eyes fell to the ground. How could this be? How could they be posthumous title of "Wen"?

The highest that everyone can accept is Wen Zheng, why does the emperor still have to raise his head?

On the third day after Zhang Juzheng's death, another incident broke out in the palace, that was that Zhu Yijun was going to visit the Zhang Mansion and personally pay homage to Zhang Juzheng.

Everyone can see that the emperor is trying to praise Zhang Juzheng with great rhythm.

Things were not beyond everyone's expectations. On the third day, Zhu Yijun's imperial guard arrived at the Zhang Mansion.

Getting out of the imperial chariot, Zhu Yijun looked at the Zhang family gate with a blank expression on his face, and looked at the Zhang family's children kneeling on the ground. Zhu Yijun stepped towards Zhang Jingxiu and reached out to help Zhang Jingxiu up.

"No gift!" Zhu Yijun glanced at the person kneeling on the ground and said.

When everyone stood up, Zhu Yijun pulled Zhang Jingxiu into the Zhang Mansion and went straight to Zhang Juzheng's mourning hall. The sentence written by Zhu Yijun was placed in the mourning hall, which was very conspicuous.

*******,*********!

Zhu Yijun took the incense handed over by Zhang Jing, lit a stick of incense for Zhang Juzheng, and then came to the side hall.

After looking at Zhang Jingxiu who was following behind, Zhu Yijun spoke with a serious face, "What do you have to tell me about your life? Mr. Wu has worked hard for the Ming Dynasty and loyal to the country. No matter what your request is, I will agree."

"The emperor has great trust in his father and has a rich reward. The emperor's grace is already deep. I have nothing to ask for!" Zhang Jingxiu hurriedly knelt on the ground and spoke.

Zhu Yijun nodded and sighed and said, "Sir, I have been my country all my life. Now that I have lost my husband, it is really the heaven that has taken away my heart and soul. Zhang Jing, read the will!" After saying this, Zhu Yizi turned to look at Zhang Jing.

He reached out to take an imperial edict, and Zhang Jing spread it gently, with a serious expression on his face.

"The emperor who followed the heavens and inherited the fortunes, said: The person who was the chief of Jiangling, was a loyal minister in the world, and was my heart. Today I took my ministers away, and I felt very sorry for him."

"Mr. During his lifetime, he was a talented person with great morals and goodwill, kind and kindness, and loving the people. Since he was the chief minister of the cabinet, he has been obedient to the guests at home and abroad, and has great concerns, using affection at home and outside, keeping innocence and pursuing the country, and forgetting his death. He is a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty."

"I thought of it in my heart and posthumously named "Wen" to show his merits, posthumously named "Zhongzhenghou". I admire this!"

"I will receive the order, thank you!" Zhang Jingxiu respectfully lay on the ground and kowtowed loudly, "Long live my emperor!" After saying this, he took the order with both hands, and his face was already full of tears.

The worries of the past two days no longer exist, and the fear of the past two days no longer exists.

Zhu Yijun did not stay in Zhang's Mansion for much and soon returned to Qianqing Palace.

However, Zhu Yijun's imperial edict caused a stir. Not only did he give Zhang Juzheng a posthumous title of "Wen", but he also posthumously named Zhongzheng Hou. This evaluation is really the highest since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Some people praise, some envy, and some people hate, but they all have an emotion: I should do this!

When he returned to the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Yijun called four people, and these four people were the four spy leaders under Zhu Yijun.

The eunuch of the East Factory was ordered by the Secretary General Zhang Jing, the eunuch of the East Factory, the eunuch of the Inner Factory, Xu De, the eunuch of the Inner Factory, and the eunuch of the Si Li Jian, the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, the left governor, the crown prince tutor, and the commander of the Jinyiwei Liu Shouyou.

In principle, Zhang Cheng is not the leader of the spy, but the intelligence department of the Imperial Horse Prison has been built and has been operating smoothly in recent years.

The entire military spies and surveillance are all operated by the Imperial Horse Monitor, and it has been quite effective now.

"Of the four of you, three of you eunuchs, Liu Aiqing was ordered to supervise the Jinyiwei. The Jinyiwei is the personal army of the emperor. You four are my close ministers. I have something to tell you to do now, and I hope you don't let me down."

"I must do my best to live up to your great trust!" The four of them hurriedly knelt on the ground and said loudly.

Zhu Yijun nodded, looked at Zhang Jing, and said, "Zhang Jing, mobilized the secret staff of Dongchang to publicize Mr. Zhang's contributions, and at the same time, I promoted my trust in Mr. Zhang and my gratitude after my death."

"All the brothels, places where scholars miss each other, arrange people to speak, so that they can all know how to do things for the court and for me, and I will reward you."

Zhang Jing hurriedly said, "I understand!"

Zhu Yijun turned his head to look at Xu De again, and ordered: "Liyuan started to talk about Mr. Zhang's words, starting with Mr. Zhang's imperial examination, focusing on his feelings for serving the country. Didn't he fail the exam? Promote it!"

"Let your people move me in the lower level of the city, spread Mr. Zhang's deeds, and also spread my grief for Mr. Zhang's death. In short, in one sentence, I and Mr. Wang are examples of the monarch and ministers."

"Remember, don't mention Emperor Taizong of Tang and Wei Zheng. If you want to say, Emperor Taizong of Tang and Changsun Wuji, do you know?"

Xu De nodded with a serious expression: "I understand!"

Emperor Taizong of Tang almost dug his tomb after Wei Zheng's death. This matter must not be mentioned at this sensitive time. Zhuge Liang could not mention it. Although entrusting the orphan in Baidi City is a good story for the monarch and minister, what kind of person is Liu Chan?

When I ascended the throne when I was young, the old emperor entrusted his orphans, they all looked very similar, but in this story I became Liu Chan.

This is not acceptable.

"Liu Shouyou, the people from the Jinyiwei also moved, spread the news, started from merchants traveling north and south, and said the same as them." After saying that, Liu Shouyou, Zhu Yijun turned his gaze to Zhang Cheng again.

"Zhang Cheng, the people from the Imperial Horse Supervisor also moved and spread the news in the army. You are different from them. What you mainly spread is my reward to your husband. Let people think that as long as you work hard for me and make contributions to the Ming Dynasty, I will never be stingy with the reward."

"Even if you are granted a wife and son, you will be willing to be the Duke and Marquis. Do you understand?"

"I understand!" Zhang Cheng also said hurriedly.

Zhu Yijun nodded, looked at the four people with a serious face and said, "No news is allowed to be revealed in this matter. Things must be done well. If anyone fails to deal with me, I will never let it go."

"Go!"

After hearing Zhu Yijun's words, the four of them turned around and walked outside, strode to the stars.

The four secret agencies of the Ming Dynasty mobilized their full force and saw the effect on the same day. The Liyuan Teahouse opened a book about Zhang Juzheng's words. In the Liyuan, there was even a long storybook. The first chapter was "A wise minister first appeared", telling the birth of Zhang Juzheng.

What are the "auspiciousness from the sky" and "Wenqu Stars descended to the earth", various myths and legends have been lifted out and pinned on Zhang Juzheng's head.

The same is true in other occasions. People everywhere talk about Zhang Juzheng's great achievements, and they also praise Zhang Juzheng and Zhu Yijun's relationship with the monarch and ministers, as well as the relationship between master and disciple.
