    Seeing that Mr. Zhang fell into coma again, Eunuch Feng sighed helplessly, looked at him deeply, shook his head and left.

    Zhao Hao sent Eunuch Feng out. Seeing that he had something to say, he waved his hand and asked the secretary and guards to leave.

    "Why is it like this?" Eunuch Feng put his hands in his sleeves and was so worried that he wanted to squat down.

    "Father-in-law is under too much pressure." Zhao Hao sighed: "Now he is being criticized by thousands of people, and he is facing difficulties both internally and externally. I'm really worried that he won't be able to hold on."

    "What should I do if I can't hold on? The Queen Mother can't do without him, the Emperor can't do without him, the court can't do without him, and our family can't do without him." Feng Bao said anxiously.

    "My father-in-law already knows what happened to my father-in-law yesterday." With tears in his eyes, Zhao Hao used his hand to make a knife and scratched his neck.  I¡¯ve never seen it before!¡±

    "Alas" Eunuch Feng finally squatted down sadly.  Thinking of what his uncle said in his ear, he finally softened his heart and said, "Then what should I do?"

    "I thought about it all night last night. Do you think this will work?" Zhao Hao also squatted beside him and started planning softly.

    "I will not worry about being buried, and I will not leave my job without pay." Eunuch Feng is worthy of being a man of culture, and he quickly refined the central idea.  After speaking, he frowned and said, "Isn't that what the guy named Xiong Dunpu means?"

    "Yes, there is no need to worry about burial. I just give my father-in-law a long vacation so that he can return to his hometown to bury his father and fulfill his filial piety. But he does not have to be subject to the twenty-seven-month restriction. If something happens in the court, he can be recalled immediately." Zhao Hao nodded.  : "Suspension of salary is an attitude of mourning. Not leaving office prevents someone from taking the opportunity to seize power, so as not to return to Beijing and live under others in the cabinet in the future."

    "It makes sense, but in this case, who will govern the country?" Feng Bao has been using man-to-man tactics against the emperor in recent years, and he has become afraid of national affairs.

    "It's also simple. Before my father-in-law leaves Beijing, recommend a few young, obedient, honest and honest people to work in the cabinet." Zhao Hao said: "My father-in-law should also pay more attention to ensure that they follow the rules and do not break the rules. If something big happens, just  You can use eight hundred miles to urgently ask your father-in-law for instructions, or you can use a carrier pigeon, which is faster and will not delay the matter. If the matter is more serious, you will have the opportunity to recall him in advance!"

    "Well, it's safe." Feng Bao nodded, relaxed a lot and said, "This way, I should be able to rest assured about state affairs."

    ¡°But what about the Queen Mother and the Emperor? Well, you know. Over the years, the Emperor and his wife have become too dependent on our husband, and they cannot leave him even for a moment.¡±

    After thinking about it, he added: "The emperor is fine. He is still a child, and he is very playful. It's just that his temper has followed his grandfather's, and he cannot tolerate disobedience. Those ministers blatantly turned a deaf ear to his will, and made rude remarks again and again.  Only the emperor would confront them."

    Zhao Hao nodded. Feng Bao said it clearly. The main obstacle now is the Queen Mother.  As long as the Queen Mother is turned around, the Emperor's problem will not be big.  After all, the emperor has not yet taken charge, and now it is the queen who has the final say.

    But he didn¡¯t believe that the Queen Mother would not panic if the Buddhist temple was burned down?  Mr. Zhang is bleeding profusely, what use is he to the Queen Mother?  The strong Xianggong Zhang was the backbone, backbone and spiritual mentor of the Queen Mother.  Can such a shrewd woman understand that it is not advisable to fish from the lake, kill chickens to obtain eggs, or burn forests to hunt?

    "Let's not talk about it here in the palace. Can the civil servants agree to this plan? Don't make any more troubles." Eunuch Feng said worriedly: "Our family also knows that they are making trouble this time. On the surface, they are against stealing love.  , in fact, they are against Xianggong Zhang¡¯s new policies. As long as they don¡¯t take the legal exam or continue to clear the land, they are afraid they will continue to make trouble.¡±

    "Well, that's the truth." Zhao Hao nodded and said: "These two things are also my father-in-law's bottom line. Even if he risks his life, he will stick to it to the end."

    "Who says it's not true?" Eunuch Feng sighed: "Our family can only help him to the end."

    "However, the importance of these two matters is different among civil servants." Zhao Hao picked up two pebbles from the ground, placed them in the palm of his hand and said, "The test method has been implemented for five years. Although everyone has complained, it has actually been implemented for a long time.  You just get used to it, and it¡¯s no problem if you stick to it.¡±

    "That's right, it's been five years" Eunuch Feng nodded.

    "So the only problem is to clear the land." Zhao Hao threw a stone and said, "How many years has this been going on?"

    "It hasn't started seriously yet." Feng Baodao said: "Haigang Peak was completed in Yingtian Shifu a few years ago, and the effect was very good, so Uncle Uncle decided to implement it nationwide after the autumn harvest this year. This would have happened if the old Fengjun hadn't passed away.  , and now it has started across the country.¡±

    "In other words, because my father-in-law is temporarily absent, the people below do not want to start such a national policy?" Zhao Hao asked rhetorically.

    "Of course, I will clear my husband's landBut if the demon mirror is really worthy of being tested and implemented, no one will be able to escape.  Feng Bao said with a smile: "Actually, this is what caused the trouble this time."  "

    "By the way, did Yueyang find anything?" Zhao Hao asked in a low voice.

    Feng Bao shook his head slowly and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Everyone on the boat that day, including the imperial guards who protected the old lord, were arrested and tortured. Several of them were skinned, but  It¡¯s just that no one confessed.¡±

    "That's right. If you recruit someone, you will destroy the family." Zhao Hao stared at the stone in his hand and said: "So we should be more cautious about this matter, otherwise there will be more troubles."

    "Then do you have a way to take care of both ends?"

    "We must continue unswervingly to clear the land. We just need to extend the front line a little longer, such as completing it within three to five years." Zhao Hao sighed: "Let's get over this situation first"

    "That's all it can do." Feng Bao nodded. Although it was not a good idea to reconcile with Xini, it was the only solution acceptable to both parties at the moment.

    The two discussed for a long time, and Feng Bao left Dashamao Hutong at almost noon.

    ??~~

    After Zhao Hao saw him off, he went back to the bedroom and continued to attend to his father-in-law's illness.

    However, Zhang Juzheng woke up again and asked him softly why he had been gone for so long.

    Zhao Hao wiped his body and replied: "My father-in-law told Eunuch Feng that he wanted to go home. Eunuch Feng couldn't bear it, so he discussed with his children whether they could think of a way to have both sides, which could not only help his father-in-law escape, but also prevent him from going home."  Influence my father-in-law¡¯s control over the reform.¡±

    With that said, he truthfully reported the method discussed with Feng Bao to his father-in-law.

    Zhang Juzheng listened quietly. When Zhao Hao said, "I won't worry about being buried, I won't leave my job without pay," and "Select a puppet to join the cabinet and use a homing pigeon to control the situation," his eyes lit up. This way, he really didn't have to worry about losing power.

    "It's just those people, can you agree?" Zhang Juzheng asked feebly.  To be honest, he was shocked when all the officials came together to plead for those five beasts.

    Is it really just that you don¡¯t want to be disgraced?  Then why was it that when Liu Tai was asked for imperial staff last year, no one interceded, and Zhang Juzheng had to give himself a way to avoid that evil beast's royal staff.

    Therefore, in Zhang Xianggong's view, this group of people swarmed up this year because Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was aimed at Pei Gong.  The intercession for those five people was just a pretense, the real purpose was to oppose his own love and to clear his father-in-law's land!

    He knew very well that the officials would definitely feel uncomfortable with the matter of marrying the land, but no one dared to object in person, so just pretend that no one objected, and live and die for the benefit of the country!

    But now everyone is almost at odds with each other. Can the officials accept his arrangement?

    "The problem shouldn't be big. First of all, it's not all a bad thing that my father-in-law fell ill this time. At least public opinion no longer believes that his father-in-law is the mastermind of this incident. I heard that today, many officials went to the palace gate to report to the emperor and the queen mother.  Petition." Zhao Hao replied softly:

    "If the father-in-law gives a little more grace to the time limit for clearing the land from his father-in-law, I believe they will pinch their noses and compromise."

    "" Zhang Juzheng was silent for a long time.  Zhao Hao thought he had fallen asleep again when he heard Mr. Zhang say quietly: "Three years"

    "Okay, the boy asked his father and Shen Zhuangyuan to spread the word. I hope they won't be ignorant again." Zhao Hao nodded and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

    He knew that Mr. Zhang had agreed to extend the period for clearing the land to three years.

    Because in another period of time and space, this major event related to the national economy and people's livelihood has caused huge resistance since it was proposed in the fifth year of Wanli.  In the entire love-stealing incident, the officials and the ruling party were actually wrestling over this matter.

    The clearing of land was originally scheduled to begin in October of the fifth year of Wanli, but it was not implemented until Zhang Juzheng was buried and returned to Beijing in the sixth year of Wanli.  And the time limit is also extended to three years.

    Zhang Juzheng also specifically asked the governors of the provinces in charge of this matter to "clear the affairs of the father-in-law, which has been a century-old undertaking. It is appropriate for the servants to be in office and do everything in one fell swoop."  But if things are done hastily, it will inevitably be nothing more than empty words.  To establish a long-term plan for the people, we must make a detailed and careful analysis and should not be hasty. This matter should only be discussed whether it is appropriate or not, not how fast it is.  ¡¯

    On the one hand, he stated that he would get the matter done while he was in office, and on the other hand, he asked the person in charge to pay attention to the method and not be impatient. In fact, he was worried about causing a big trouble.

    In the ninth year of Wanli, the three-year period was about to expire. As usual, the matter could be thoroughly investigated according to the limit and named for impeachment. However, Zhang Juzheng still ordered the provinces to be cautious in handling matters, and ordered the six subjects to postpone the impeachment for the first time.

    "Is this a slap in the face by Mr. Zhang? He has no confidence in his father-in-law's land?"

    No, the powerful regent pays so much attention to work methods, which is exactly the manifestation of his hope to complete this century-old project during his reign.  I would rather break the rules than push too hard, causing the subordinates to "hastily" and make the newly established field register "just a mere document."

    Mencius said, "Benevolent government must start from the economic boundary." Before the land is cleared, the people's burden cannot be fair, which is the greatest injustice.  Xianggong Zhang just wanted to reduce the burden on the common people and let the big landowners shoulder their obligations to the country, so as to resolve the crisis of the empire.

    It should be like this, it should be like this.

    However, Zhang Xianggong¡¯s efforts still failed

    Because it is simply unrealistic to rely on officials who are themselves landowners to implement land clearing.
