At the beginning, Qin Shi Huang traveled to my home

Chapter 382 Noble Man

His face is dark, is he really angry?

What should she do, should she kneel down and beg for mercy now or kneel down and beg for mercy?

Zhang Juzheng smiled, realizing that he had scared the little immortal. After all, the little immortal's courage was obvious to all.

"No, no, little immortal, I'm not angry. Please continue talking," Zhang Juzheng tried hard to keep smiling. He was already upset in his heart. What else could he do after the little immortal had said it? It was absolutely impossible for him to be angry with the little immortal.

What could go wrong for a little fairy? A little fairy would never make mistakes.

Naturally, everyone else could guess what Zhang Juzheng was thinking. He was not angry at all, but just felt a little embarrassed.

Especially for a minister like this, who has so many mortal enemies, he is most afraid that his enemies will know.

Poor Zhang Juzheng, now his mortal enemies have a little handle on him.

They could all imagine how humiliated Zhang Juzheng would be if he targeted his mortal enemies and they kept calling him "little white turtle" one after another.

Li Wu looked carefully and it seemed that there was no such thing. Li Wu felt that stories like this could be found in many important figures.

This is normal, so I didn't think much about it.

I can't think of so many things with an empty head.

"Then let me continue, Senior Zhang Juzheng," Li Wu asked. Zhang Juzheng nodded and ate, seemingly using the food as a way to vent his anger on certain people.

"Senior Zhang Juzheng, when you were young, you were so smart and a well-known prodigy in Jingzhou," Li Wu said, already numb to this. He was able to leave his name through the ages and hold a high position as an official. How could he be a fool? He was a genius.

Li Wudu has already forgotten how many times he has said that his ancestors were smart when they were young and had skills such as photographic memory.

"In 1536, which was the fifteenth year of the Jiajing reign, you, Senior Zhang Juzheng, who was twelve years old, participated in the Tongshi examination.

Because of your quick wit and intelligence, the then Jingzhou prefect Li Shi'ao liked you very much, Zhang Juzheng, and told you to set your goals from a young age and be loyal to your country when you grow up.

I also changed your name, Mr. Zhang Juzheng, to "Juzheng", which is your current name.

In the same year, Mr. Zhang Juzheng became a student of the prefecture.

Li Shiao is also the first benefactor of yours, Senior Zhang Juzheng. The help and guidance of this benefactor are indispensable to his growth and success.

But you have to be hard-working and smart enough, otherwise, no matter how many noble people you have, it will be in vain. "It is not easy to meet a noble person, and many people will never meet a noble person in their lifetime.

Some people met a noble person but did not seize the opportunity and missed it.

In front of the sky curtain, Li Shiao, who was lifted up, just stroked his beard and smiled.

"Prefect Li has indeed been very kind to me," Zhang Juzheng said. He would naturally not deny this.

"In the 16th year of the Jiajing reign, you, Senior Zhang Juzheng, took part in the provincial examination, but were obstructed by the then Huguang Governor Gu Lin and therefore failed the exam.

The reason is that Gu Lin hopes that you, Senior Zhang Juzheng, will hone your skills more and become a great man.

It was not until the 19th year of the Jiajing reign that you, Senior Zhang Juzheng, successfully passed the provincial examination and became a young juren. "

The comments were all from scholars. Some said that Gu Lin went too far. It was obvious that Zhang Juzheng could have passed the provincial examination a long time ago, but he still kept saying that he had to endure hardships. Others felt that Gu Lin was right. After all, Zhang Juzheng was still young at the time and had not experienced many hardships.

In short, everyone had their own opinions, and Gu Lin was scolded for this.

"Senior Zhang Juzheng, what do you think about Gu Lin causing you to fail the exam?" Li Wu looked at Zhang Juzheng with round eyes. If it were her, she would definitely be angry.

This was intentional, how could I not be angry?

Shang Yang and Wang Anshi also looked at him, and their hearts were already in turmoil. They had never thought that this descendant of Zhang Juzheng was so strong.

However, he took part in the provincial examination at the age of thirteen. His achievements at such a young age showed that he would have an extraordinary future.

So who can take part in the provincial examination? Only scholars can take the exam.

There are many students who failed to pass the examination to become a scholar. It is not that easy to pass the examination to become a scholar.

Who dares to say that this is not impressive? A scholar at the age of twelve could have become a juren at the age of thirteen, but was obstructed by Gu Lin. So they also wanted to know what Zhang Juzheng was thinking.

Zhang Juzheng looked calm and composed. He smiled, stroked his beard and said, "I was very angry at the beginning. I felt that the other party was targeting me. It was also the first setback in my life. To be honest, I felt very resentful and felt it was very unfair.

But later Governor Gu gave me an explanation, so I naturally didn’t feel so resentful anymore, and I figured it out later.

There will be countless injustices and setbacks in life, and we should not be discouraged by a small one-time setback. So I am still grateful to Governor Gu, because he made me realize this problem. "

When he was young, he was arrogant and proud, and as a talented scholar, he was highly praised. He never encountered any setbacks and thought everything was too good to be true.

After experiencing more, I gradually understood that in this life, there is no such thing as smooth sailing and no such thing as fairness.

Those in power have absolute power.

Shang Yang and Wang Anshi looked at him and nodded. It seemed that Zhang Juzheng's younger generation was very clear-headed.

Li Wu nodded in understanding. Indeed, there are too many things in life that are beyond one's control, and too many things to deal with. One cannot just be defeated by one thing.

Gu Lin in front of the skylight nodded with satisfaction. He was not wrong about the other person.

Many people understood it and it was the same logic, but some did not understand it and still cursed Gu Lin, but not with vulgar words. Scholars do not use dirty words when they curse others.

“Senior Zhang Juzheng, what you said is that there is no absolute fairness in this world, so be open-minded and look at everything.

Let's continue talking about you, Mr. Zhang Juzheng. I just mentioned that you passed the imperial examination and Gu Lin admired you very much. He once said to others, "You have the talent to be a general or a prime minister." It can be seen that Gu Lin is very optimistic about you.

Gu Lin also took off his rhinoceros belt and gave it to you, Mr. Zhang Juzheng, and told you that he hoped that you would set ambitious goals and not just be a young and famous scholar.

In fact, I should be worried about you. After all, you were too young at that time, Senior Zhang Juzheng. There are many people in history who became famous at a young age but achieved nothing. "Even now, there are many people who became famous at a young age but became ordinary people when they grew up.

"That's true. Of course, I can't be complacent just because I'm a juren," Zhang Juzheng said. Fortunately, Governor Gu reminded him, for which Zhang Juzheng was grateful.

There are many young people who become ordinary people after becoming famous, but fortunately, he did not become like that.

Many literati in front of the sky curtain also began to reflect, especially those "geniuses".

"That's right, that's right. I didn't expect that Zhang Juzheng's descendant is so capable. I'll toast to you," Wang Anshi raised his glass. Zhang Juzheng also raised his glass, and the two drank together.

Shang Yang and Li Wu shook their heads and laughed, "Senior Shang Yang, eat some food, eat some food," Li Wu greeted.
