Zhang Juzheng looked at Xu Jie's old face, his gray hair, and his eyes became slightly moist, and he said in a trembling voice:

"I'm tired of mentor."

"Teaching is nothing." Xu Jie said bitterly, "It's just that I'm not understood, I'm tired."

Zhang Juzheng was silent, and he knew in his heart that Xu Jie's reputation was really bad in the court and the country. Since he got along with Yan Song, his reputation was not good, and this bad reputation has continued until now. It is really all the fault of others. Is Xu Jie not wrong?

Not necessarily.

However, if Xu Jie did not want to revive the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Juzheng would not agree. It was just that everyone had different ideas. Zhang Juzheng even knew that his ideas were very different from Xu Jie's ideas.

"Forget it!" Xu Jie sighed, with a look of a slight expression and said, "Your Majesty has a deep prejudice against me. He enthusiastically called you a few of you, but he refused to admit me as your teacher again."

Zhang Juzheng was still silent. What could he say?

Do you want to blame your mentor? You have betrayed Your Majesty, and do you still want Your Majesty to recognize you as your teacher?

Your Majesty is already very envious to let you sit in the seat of the Prime Minister of the Cabinet!

Or...

Your Majesty has not found a reason to deal with you yet!

Seriously speaking, Zhang Juzheng should retire and return home because Xu Jie should not be greedy for the position of Prime Minister of the Cabinet. You should know that you do not take the initiative to retire and return home. When Your Majesty finds a reason, it will not be retiring and returning home at that time, and it is not impossible to kill you.

Do you really think that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty has never killed an important official?

Or is Emperor Longqing really having a broad mind?

Or when Emperor Longqing is so easy to bully?

"Oh, the emperor is the minister!" Xu Jie from the other side sighed again: "Your Majesty is going to let you teachers take office."

At this time, Zhang Juzheng could not remain silent, so he said softly:

"If Your Majesty really has this meaning, Gao Gong will definitely be the one who is in power. Gao Gong is very talented, and the students admire him. He just keeps his words to the day... He is a little impatient, not a blessing for the Ming Dynasty."

Xu Jie narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "In terms of seniority, Gao Gong, you and Luo Xin, Gao Gong's qualifications are naturally the highest. When you were not your Majesty's teacher, Gao Gong was already there. Moreover, he is indeed talented, but he is not suitable for the chief assistant. Taiyue, do you know the reason for this when his teacher said this?"

Zhang Juzheng pondered for a moment and said, "Gaoge Lao is a little stubborn, impatient, and has no sand in his eyes. He saw that the Ming Dynasty's officialdom is now like a pool of stagnant water, and most officials are just monks and bells. Gaoge Lao is resolute in rectifying the official style, which makes those people unable to stand it."

Xu Jie nodded and said, "This is the importance of being with light and dust. Gao Gong didn't know that being with light and dust."

"But..." Zhang Juzheng was still young and still had a heart: "It's just a matter of light, what if the Ming Dynasty is revived?"

"I didn't say that I should be with the light and dust. What I mean is that with the light and dust is just a means, a means to realize our ideals and reduce resistance. It is easy to break even if it is too tough and has a high character. He will not succeed at all, but will make the Ming Dynasty a mess."

Speaking of this, he looked at Zhang Juzheng deeply and said, "You are the best candidate for the prime minister. As a teacher, I am greedy for this position, just want you to take over my class. If you don't become the prime minister, you will die with your eyes open to your heart."

Zhang Juzheng felt his heart being hit by a huge touch, and his eyes were wet again and said:

"Students follow their mentor's instructions."

Xu Jie nodded and said, "You must remember not to say bad things about Gao Gong and Luo Xin publicly or privately. Your status in Your Majesty's heart is worse than that of Gao Gong and Luo Xin. So, if Your Majesty knows that you say bad things about Gao Gong and Luo Xin, you will be displeased and will look down on you."

"Student understand." Zhang Juzheng nodded and said, "But this is not enough to prevent Gao Gong from taking the position of chief minister. And there is Luo Xin in front of me."

"This is also the reason why your teacher is greedy for the position of chief assistant. As long as you do a few beautiful things, your teacher can re-arrange your position for you. At that time, they couldn't say anything."

Zhang Juzheng was excited for a moment, and then said bitterly: "Not to say that he did a beautiful thing, mentor, now this whip has caused the students to be in trouble, but Luo Xin got out of this trouble."

"The money is short!" Xu Jie said with a frown, "We have to find a way to solve this problem. If we solve this problem within three months, but Gao Gong has not solved it, Ma Fang will have to move down a seat. At that time, he will take action again as a reward for you and move you forward. In this way, Ma Fang will retreat to the fourth place, and you will sit in the fifth place, and Luo Xin will fall to the last place. Ma Fang is in war, but enters the cabinet? Haha...

It is easy to find his mistakes, so it is not difficult for you to surpass Ma Fang and sit in the fourth seat."

The prospect is good and the pancake is big enough, but Zhang Juzheng couldn't be happy, and his eyebrows were full of anxiety:

"Mr., but how to solve the problem of money shortage?"

"oh……"

Xu Jie stopped talking, frowned and said for a while: "Taiyue, what can you do?"

"There was a way..."

Zhang Juzheng barabala said in detail how Luo Xin refuted it. After hearing this, Xu Jie frowned and thought about how he could have been said for half an hour:

"If there is really no way, this method is not impossible. At least it can solve the problem in front of you. As for the hidden dangers mentioned by Luo Xin, it will be a future matter. We will find a way to solve it at that time. Let's think about it in the next few days to see if there is a safer solution."

Three days after the incident, Luo Xin looked serious and ignored the money shortage. In fact, Luo Xin was indeed observing and learning how these parents looked at the overall situation and dealt with problems, and did not even miss the observation and study of Xu Jie.

On this day, just after the time was paid, I saw Huang Jin standing outside with a smile. When Luo Xin walked out, I walked over and lowered my voice and said:

"Mr. Luo, Your Majesty has promised me to go to Nanjing. I will leave in two days. I want to treat you to a meal today."

Luo Xin couldn't refuse to agree. Although Huang Jin was an eunuch, he was also an old friend. Moreover, Huang Jin had always been very powerful. When Emperor Jiajing was not dead, he still wanted to take Luo Xin out of the Heavenly Prison. So Luo Xin agreed happily.

There was no one else, they were the two of them.
