Shen Shixing's expression was complicated, as if a tsunami was raging in his heart.
"Aren't you a rotten kid? Why can't you understand these things?" Zhang Juzheng rolled his eyes at him.
Shen Shixing didn't know what to say, so he just drank a glass of wine silently.
Zhang Juzheng knew that these words had a great impact on a young man who had not really entered officialdom.
But no matter how great it is, it is never as great as the experience I had back then.
Because Zhang Juzheng himself has made rapid progress, he doesn't want smart kids like himself to go astray.
"The teacher's words really shocked the students!" Shen Shixing sighed.
"You won't doubt what you have learned all your life and then give up on yourself, right?" Zhang Juzheng said with a smile.
"This thing is called reality! The sooner you figure it out, the better!"
"The first lesson when entering officialdom: forget all the words of saints!"
Shen Shixing does not have the arrogance of a young man, nor does he have the high self-esteem of a champion. He has always been a very quiet person, and does not show his emotions easily.
He is a quiet child.
But quiet children generally have a lot on their minds and accept new things more slowly than others.
Something disappeared from his eyes at this moment.
"Want to hear my experience?" Zhang Juzheng asked.
"Teacher, I have drunk two sticks in my life, and they have benefited me a lot!" Regardless of whether Shen Shixing wanted to hear it or not, Zhang Juzheng began to talk to himself.
"The first time was when I was thirteen years old. I could have passed the imperial examination that year, but the then governor of Huguang, Mr. Gu Lin, made me fail."
"Students have heard of their teachers' deeds. You are a genius!"
"Hahaha, not only do I not blame Master Gu, but I am very grateful to Master Gu! Without him, think about how crazy Zhang Juzheng, who won the national examination at the age of thirteen, would have been."
"Maybe I offended someone and got killed before I even entered the officialdom, hahahaha..."
When he said the last two words, his smile froze on his face, and a trace of bitterness flashed in his eyes...
"The second time is when I return to Gangneung! If it hadn't been for that period of thinking and suffering, I wouldn't have learned how to stay calm and wait for the opportunity to act!"
"Not even able to survive a life-and-death battle!"
Shen Shixing nodded, digesting the teacher's teachings.
He knew the teacher's character. He was strict with the people below him, but he was also very protective of the subordinates he liked.
His experience is priceless.
"People who have everything going smoothly can't stand setbacks the most!" Zhang Juzheng pointed at him and said, "I think everything is going smoothly for you!"
"At the age of ten, he was familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and could write eight-part essay. At the age of twelve, he could compose poetry, and he was famous in Wuzhong!"
"You're very similar to me! And you're still the number one scholar! So far, there have been no obstacles in your studies, right?"
Shen Shixing scratched his head in embarrassment.
"yes!"
"You will be fooled to death if you enter official circles like this!" Zhang Juzheng looked out the window with no emotion in his eyes, "But I will not tolerate you wasting your youth among a group of nerds!"
"So! You have to hurry up and treat the words of the saint that you have believed in for half your life like dog shit under your feet, rub them on the ground and get rid of them, and then prepare to enter the military department!"
After drinking a full cup of Shao Daozi, Zhang Juzheng stood up and prepared to leave.
"Don't be afraid of others gossiping. I know many people will say that Zhang Juzheng has teachers in his cabinet and students in the Ministry of War. This is a clique for personal gain!"
Shen Shixing also stood up and put a coat on the teacher.
"But I don't care at all!" Zhang Juzheng smiled and patted Shen Shixing on the shoulder.
"Students enter the Ministry of War, between Master Gao and you..." Shen Shixing hesitated to speak.
"What are you afraid of him doing?" Zhang Juzheng said easily, "Gao Gong took advantage of the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs in the new year to install so many of his own people. It is not too much for me, Zhang Taiyue, to bring one of my own students into the Ministry of War, right?"
"You are the number one scholar, and you will be a fourth or fifth grade official in a few years anyway."
"Let's go Ang!"
"The students send their teachers a happy greeting!"
"I've already paid for the food and drinks, so don't waste what you can't finish!"
"Students know!"
Looking at Zhang Juzheng's leaving figure, Shen Shixing watched for a long time.
It wasn't until no one could be seen at all that he sat back down and called the waiter over.
"Wrap up all these leftovers and I'll take them back."
"Young Master is a frugal man!" the waiter said flatteringly.
"Originally, the two of us didn't even eat a few bites. If you were left to deal with it, you would rather feed it to the dogs than give it to the beggars on the street. Why don't I pack it back and distribute it to them myself?"
…
In the following period, Zhu Zaijing's life began to become regular.
Li Shizhen was being screened at the Tai Hospital, and those who failed in medical skills were racking their brains in front of his exams. Some people wanted to go through the back door, but Li Shizhen pulled them directly to Zhu Zaijing.
This gave Zhu Zaijing an excuse to attack the medical household system in the future.
Medical households are different from the hereditary medical families in the folk. The latter is a family industry. Without a certain level and credibility, you can't maintain your reputation, right?
But being a doctor is compulsory, and you have no choice but to be a doctor. How many of these people do you think are passionate about medicine, and how many of them have superb medical skills?
The one-size-fits-all household registration system in the Ming Dynasty was a big drawback. Let’s start with the medical system and see how it should be reformed.
Zhu Shitai woke up and could not get out of bed for the time being. The injuries on his body did not seem to leave him disabled.
His father, Zhu Xizhong, was also resting at home and was treating his blind eye, not to regain his sight, but just to prevent the injury from expanding and affecting the other eye.
Li Yuan was tortured for three whole days, and the Ming Dynasty Daily reported on his crime for three whole days.
Zhang Dali was beheaded, and his sister was protected. Zhu Zaijing did not embarrass her.
Yang Bo is responsible for the follow-up matters of the Beijing camp.
The Ministry of War is also undergoing internal reorganization under the guidance of Zhang Juzheng.
Zhu Zaijing approved his request, and Shen Shixing entered the Ministry of War from the Hanlin Academy and served as the head of the Fangqing Officials Department, ranking fifth.
Li Shizhen also prescribed medicine for the queen's illness, and Chen was taking it with great hope.
Jiubian's military field non-payment of food and anti-corruption actions began to be implemented.
The situation of the military fields in the four counties of Tongzhou was very bad. They were close to the emperor's feet, but nearly half of the military fields were occupied.
Zhu Zaijing no longer politely gave the gentry and officials a time limit to retreat from their fields. He ignored Xu Jie's advice and directly ordered the execution of four officials and six gentry homes.
After ransacking their house, the treasury had more money.
Not even halfway through the first month of the first year of Longqing, the emperor had already killed 12 people, which caused officials to talk a lot.
The Ming Dynasty Newspaper Office also extended to those four counties.
On this day, among the vassal kings from all over the country, only King Shen was left.
He wanted to see the emperor before returning to his fiefdom.
