Chapter 3 Chapter 1 Jingzhou Zhang Xiucai

In the second year of Emperor Song Gong's Deyou, Lin'an fell, and the emperor became a prisoner.The survivors of the Song Dynasty established Yiwang as the emperor, changed Yuan Jingyan, and continued to struggle: the emperor died in the third year of Jingyan, and they made Wei Wang Bing the emperor again, and changed Yuan Xiangxing.The entire struggle began to turn south, and the base of the Southern Song Dynasty was left with a corner of Hainan Island.That year, Wen Tianxiang's lone army failed, and Tianxiang also became a prisoner.In the second year of Xiangxing, the Yashan struggle failed again, and Lu Xiufu threw himself into the sea with Emperor Bing.Zhang Shijie wanted to establish another emperor and rekindle the flames of struggle, but the earth-shattering storm destroyed this national hero.The anti-Yuan struggle of the Southern Song Dynasty ended tragically in this way. From then on, the whole of China began to be ruled by the Tatars for the first time.This year is the sixteenth year from Yuan Shizu to Yuan Dynasty.

The Song Dynasty fell, and the Yuan Dynasty rose.However, the status of the vast number of poor people who are suppressed at the bottom has not improved, and they still live a life of enslavement.In China, there is still only licentiousness, tyranny, massacre and death.Part of the ruling class has declined; the Song Dynasty, which had ruled China for 320 years, could no longer produce a talented and generous monarch; the deaths of Wen Tianxiang, Lu Xiufu, and Zhang Shijie could not be called out among the scholar-officials. of lofty ideals.The rest are only the first-class poets of Yuequan Yinshe, who use the miscellaneous titles of the pastoral gardens in spring to express a little sigh of the change of dynasty.

The whole of China has fallen with the decline of the upper class. Has the history of four thousand years become dust under the feet of the rulers?Will not.Like the long-lived bird in Western legends, the Chinese people are being reborn from destruction.The power of the people cannot be destroyed.The rulers are fatuous and decadent, digging their own graves, but the masses of the people will not perish with the dying rulers, they will use their own strength to break the shackles on their bodies and fight for the right to live.They are preparing their strength to deal a severe blow to the rulers riding on their heads, and leaders are being produced among them to lead the whole people in struggle.This is the state of China after Emperor Yuan Shun.In the 11th year from Emperor Shun to Zhengzheng, Xu Shouhui, who sold cloth, raised an army. In the 12th year, Guo Zi, the son of a fortune-teller, raised an army. In the 13th year, Zhang Shicheng, who sold salt, raised an army.Among this large group of people, the most outstanding ones are Zhu Yuanzhang, a monk from Huangjue Temple, and Chen Youliang, a fisherman from Mianyang.Zhu Yuanzhang grasped the final victory and became Emperor Gao of the Ming Dynasty.

Ming Taizu raised an army, and Li Shanchang from Dingyuan came to the military gate, just saying that there will be days and days from now on.Lu Zhongheng, a man of Hao, was only seventeen years old. His parents and brothers were dead. He hid in the grass with the last sheng of wheat in his arms, fearing that the rebels would find him and send him to death. The ancestor shouted, and Zhongheng joined the army from now on.Here we can see the tragic situation at that time, and the expectations of ordinary people for this turmoil.From then on, Shanchang became Prime Minister Zuo, Zhongheng also became a founding hero, and was granted the title of Marquis of Ji'an.Among the famous heroes, Xu Da and Tang He are from Haozhou, Li Wenzhong is from Xuyi, Li Shanchang, Feng Guoyong, and Feng Sheng are from Dingyuan, Deng Yu and Hu Dahai are from Hong County, and Chang Yuchun is from Huaiyuan. Liao Yongan is from Chao County, and there are many other heroes who were born near Haozhou.Under the leadership of Ming Taizu, many heroes emerged from the Huai River Basin.In the period of decline of the Ming Dynasty, fortunately, a descendant of an unknown hero in the Huai River Basin came out from among the people and led the country's cause again. The rule of the Ming Dynasty was extended for 72 years (since Muzong Longqing six Zhang Juzheng was the chief assistant in the first year, and ended in the seventeenth year of Sizong Chongzhen).This is Zhang Juzheng, a scholar of the Ming Dynasty.

When Juzheng was born, the Ming Dynasty had already declined: the martial arts of Taizu and Chengzu were gone, and the martial arts of Renzong and Xuanzong were gone. After that, Yingzong went to war in the 14th year of Zhengtong. Unfortunately, he was surrounded by Tatars. Hundreds of thousands met the fate of annihilation, and even the emperor became a prisoner.In this difficult stage, thanks to Yu Qian who came out, supported Emperor Jing, and supported the world that day.Later, Yingzong was restored, Yu Qian was killed, and then Xianzong came to the throne, and the politics of the whole country did not see the era of Qingming.Xiaozong, the son of Xianzong, is finally a virtuous king, but below Xiaozong is the absurd Wuzong: Beijing is old, and Xuanfu is his home; he is tired of living in the palace, and he lives in the leopard room; the emperor is tired of doing it, and he calls himself Governor Zhu Shou, the mighty general of military affairs, Zhenguogong; the prince didn't have one, and the East Palace didn't want it anymore. He had countless adoptive sons, so he destroyed Jiqingfang and Mingyufang and rebuilt his adoptive son's mansion.In the fifth year of Zhengde, Anhua Wang Zhixuan rebelled, and Ning Wang Chenhao rebelled in the 14th year. Finally, there was no chaos, but the vitality of the Ming Dynasty had already declined.After Wuzong's death, his younger brother Sejong came to the throne.Sejong is a well-known talent, but there is a breath of dementia in his intelligence. Although he made rituals and made fun, he always showed the phenomenon of peace and prosperity, but he also showed absurd and absurd thoughts everywhere.The hints of the whole politics are bigotry and despotism; the frequent chances of ministers are court and murder.So flattery is everywhere.Political measures can only hasten the corruption and destabilization of the whole society.This is the era when Zhang Juzheng was born.

The ancestors of Juzheng have been extended to Zhang Guanbao at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, a native of Fengyang Dingyuan (Anthology 10 "First Examination of Guanlan Gong Xinglue". ).Guan Bao was a soldier at the beginning of the Taizu. Later, he crossed the river, broke the quarry, and settled Jiangnan from the general Xu Da. He made contributions to Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong.Juzheng's ancestor was just an unknown hero in Dingyuan, who was later enlisted in the army of Huguang.Military registration is a system in the Ming Dynasty. The world was initially determined. Each government set up offices, and each government set up guards in key areas. There were roughly 5,600 people as guards, 1,120 people as thousands of households, and 112 people as guards. In a hundred households, soldiers and officials all have family backgrounds, so-called military registrations.Juzheng's ancestors were the heroes of the Taizu, and later he was a member of the army, which made him a long-cherished wish to pledge his life to the country.

Guan Bao did not leave any achievements in the annals of history, and was buried in Yidu after his death.Juzheng replied to Xu Yinfeng, the magistrate of Yidu County, and said: "The lonely tomb of the distant ancestors, humiliated and favored Qing Chaofu (slip ten), roughly refers to this."Guan Bao's descendants only passed down two names in Juzheng's "First Examination of Guanlan Gong Xinglue", but when it comes to Guan Bao's great-grandson, there are deeds to test.His name is Cheng, his style name is Huaige, and he is the great-grandfather of Juzheng. Zhang Cheng is only the second son, and the honor of inheriting a thousand households has nothing to do with him, so he moved from Guizhou to Jiangling and became a Jiangling citizen.After Zhang Cheng arrived in Jiangling, he had to make a living by himself. When he had spare time, he gave alms to the poor and made offerings to monks, so he was always in poverty.Zhang Cheng stuttered a little, so the people of Jiangling gave him the nickname Zhang Jianzi ("Dialect" [訁寋], Chi Ye, the word Jianzi comes from this).Even though Jianzi is Jianzi, he talks a lot. People in Jiangling often quote Zhang Jianzi's words to teach their children a lesson.Juzheng himself quoted a few words:

In the past, I thought of my great-grandfather, who was anxious and exhausted all his life, and wished to use his body as a recommendation for people to sleep on it.Make them know, and never bear to trap the elders in my hometown, so as to show off their own home (Book 3 "Response to Chu Yinyuan Chen Yanye Ci Biaolu"). Twenty years ago, I had a great wish, wishing to use his body as a mat, so that people can sleep on it, drown it, and make it dirty.This is also known to Wu Zi.If someone wants to cut off my ears and nose, I am also happy to give it away, let alone slander? (Letter 3 "Response to Wu Yaoshan's Great Wish to Help the World")

Answer Wu Yaoshan's book was written in the first year of Wanli, and the 20 years back is the 32nd year of Jiajing. He was 29 years old in Juzheng, and he was editing for the Hanlin Academy in Juzheng. Since the period of time.The ambition of the prime minister, all the way back to the lesson of a Jianzi, seems difficult to understand, but it is actually the easiest thing to understand.Juzheng regards his great-grandfather's ambition as his own. This is not a coercion but a psychological fit. Jianzi had three sons: Yue, Zhen, and Ji.The town name is Donghu, which is Juzheng's grandfather.Yue is good at managing property, and his family is getting better and better; 釴 is studying and making up for the students in the county; but Zhang Zhen neither studies nor manages property. Chu Bao. Zhang Juzheng Biography", "Guanlan Gong Xing Lue", "Wen Zhong Gong Xing Shi" are all taboo).From Zhang Guanbao joining the army to Zhangzhen as a guard, it is finally a line of legend, Ke Shao Jiqiu.But four generations have passed, and all concepts have changed. There is no spirit of generosity in the army, no reputation for heroic career, and what is left is a bold spirit and a profligate life.But Jianzi likes him.This is not because of Zhang Zhen's gratification, but because parents often have a special interest in caring for their underdeveloped children.Juzheng said that Gu Du, the ancestor of Jian, loved him more than Bo Ji ("Guanlan Gong Xinglue"), and this is the reason.Zhang Zhen's boldness and unrestrainedness left some traces in Juzheng's life: authoritarianism and self-indulgence are exactly the form of a bold and unrestrained person after he embarks on political life.

Although Jianzi loves Zhang Zhen very much, she still feels a little disappointed.The second son is not as good as his elder brother and younger brother, and I can only hope that he will have a good child.So when Zhang Zhen gave birth to Wen Wen, Jian Zi said: I have helped others a lot in my life, so I should have a good offspring, maybe this is the child!Wen Wenming, whose name is Zhiqing, also known as Guanlan, was in his twenties, and he was a student in the government. In the era of imperial examinations, he was a kind of development, but he passed the provincial examination seven times, but he was never admitted.It was not until Juzheng ordered Hanlin, and three years after the rank was full, Wenming threw down the test basket and sighed: I have been studying since I was a child, and it has been forty years now. Looking at it for myself, there is nothing inferior to others, but I have been struggling until now. Fate!In fact, this is not fate, but the knowledge of civilization is not enough.Juzheng said:

The first gentleman was young and alert, and he wrote and wrote for the text, and he didn't change it. He used poetry as a poem, and often had strange sentences, but he couldn't bow his head to the ink and follow the rules, so he saw it in Yousi. (Anthology 10 "A Brief Examination of Guanlan Gong's Journey First") Forty years of studying, after all, can not make civilization know itself is not just Shengmo, this is his stubbornness.Juzheng also said that he is honest and honest in nature, and when dealing with others, there is no distinction between the noble and the humble, the virtuous and the virtuous, the peace of mind has no rivalry, no hatred, and no one has resentment.He likes to drink, is good at chatting and bantering, and in the Zhongyan meeting, he will drink happily after the first king.Self-recommended gentry, doctors, and even the people of Qi are all respectful. If you have good wine, you must extend it, or drink it as long as it is carried.Of course, what is written here is the form of civilized fathers who value sons, but we can also see his unrestrained artistic conception.After all, he is Zhang Zhen's son and Zhang Juzheng's father. Jianzi's expectations for civilization are obviously still in vain, but in the end he saw Juzheng's birth.Is Juzheng's achievement the retribution of Jianzi's intention to help the world?Not necessarily, but he has the kind of ambition to help the world, and of course his descendants will realize his wish one day.Juzheng was born on the third day of May in the fourth year of Jiajing. His great-grandfather Zhang Cheng, grandfather Zhang Zhen, and father Zhang Wenming were all there.Wenming is twenty-two years old, and his mother, Zhao, is two years younger than Wenming. As usual, there are many legends about the pregnancy and birth of great people.It is said that Juzheng's mother saw a sudden light in the room at night, a burst of fire that reached the sky, and then a boy in Tsing Yi, about five or six years old, came down slowly from the sky and circled the bed in the room. , So Zhao became pregnant.This was probably made up by his mother after Juzheng Dagui, and later through the effect of self-hypnosis, I actually believed it to be true.This is what often happens to country women with imperfect knowledge.Jingxiu's "Wen Zhong Gong Xing Shi" also pointed out that Zhao's pregnancy was ten or two months before he was born in Zheng, which seems to be considered expensive.This is probably not false.Originally in the first month of pregnancy, although it is normal in human nature, the first pregnancy period of a strong young woman will often be prolonged. This is a fact that every doctor knows. Jingxiu also pointed out two dreams.On the eve of Juzheng's birth, Zhang Zhen dreamed that there was a torrent of water everywhere, filling the house.Zhang Zhen was terrified, and asked his slaves, "Where does this much water come from?"The slave said: "The water flows from Zhang Shaobao's field."That same night, Zhang Cheng also dreamed that the moon fell into the water jar, shining brightly on it, and then a white turtle floated up with the light of the water. Juzheng Zishuda, nicknamed Taiyue, but when he was young, he was named Baigui, which is the result of Jianzi naming him because of his fantasy dream.Baigui is just a homonym for white turtle.In the 15th year of Jiajing, when Juzheng was taking the exam, Li Shiao, the magistrate of Jingzhou, saw Juzheng and thought that the word Bai Gui was inappropriate, so he changed his name to Juzheng. Juzheng's family is just a poor family.In the 33rd year of Jiajing, Juzheng asked for leave to return home from Beijing, and he wrote in Xu Jieshu's book: "Stealing my thoughts started from poor people, not a family who read clothes and hats, and lacked money and looks (Book 15, "Thank you for your illness, Mr. Xu Cunzhai") ); Wanli Zhong and Wang Shizhen also said: The servant was born cold, not the old clothes (Book 15 "Answer to Lianxian Wang Fengzhou Eight"), which shows his understanding of this family environment.But he deliberately wants to break free from the constraints of this environment.Originally Ming Taizu was a character from the lower class, which gave him an inspiration.Juzheng's Preface to the Genealogy of He's Family in Xiling said: In our country, there is no way to establish a virtuous person, but only the talent is used. Picking spirits from the dung soil, pulling concubines and ginger from haggard; The scholars in Buyanxiang turned into famous families (Collected Works 8).This article was written around the thirty-seventh year of Jiajing, when it was edited by the Imperial Academy, and it was preparing for the country's reuse. But even when Juzheng was young, the economic situation of the Zhang family had improved. There were slaves and nurses, and there was always more than enough.When Juzheng was two years old, everyone saw that he was a smart boy.One day, his uncle in the same hall, Long Qiu (Zhang Zhen's son Wenming, that is, Guanlan Gong. "Xingshi" calls his father Long Qiugong, who seems not to be a brother of Wenming.), was studying Mencius, and lived next to him. Long Qiu had a fight with him. He said with a smile: "Son, don't praise your cleverness. You must know the word Wang Yue to be considered a skill."A few days later, when Long Qiu was studying, the wet nurse and Ju Zheng came again.Long Qiu hugged Juzheng on his lap and asked him to recognize Wang Yue, but Juzheng did.Hence the title of child prodigy.At the age of five, Juzheng was enrolled in school, and at the age of ten, he had mastered the six classics and righteousness, and he was well-known in Jingzhou Prefecture. In the fifteenth year of Jiajing, Juzheng was twelve years old and took the exam in Jingzhou Prefecture.It is said that Li Shiao, the prefect of Jingzhou Prefecture, had a dream the night before that God gave him a jade seal and ordered it to be passed on to a child.When the roll call was held in Jingzhou Mansion the next day, Zhang Baigui, a twelve-year-old boy, was the first one.Li Shiao called him closer, and after a closer look, it was exactly what he had seen in a dream, so he changed his name to Juzheng and told him many words of self-love.After passing the exam in Jingzhou Prefecture, Huguang Xuezheng Tian Xu came.When Li Shiao saw Tian Xu, he told him that there was such a clever boy in Jingzhou Mansion.Tian Xuezheng recruited Zhang Juzheng for an interview.The test question was Nanjun Qitong Fu, and Ju Zheng handed in the paper quickly.Both Xuezheng and Jingzhou government were astonished.This year, he was a student in Zhengbufu. ("History of Ming Dynasty. Zhang Juzheng Biography" said that the fifteenth year was Zhusheng, which is the same as "Shoufu Zhuan". It should be a mistake in the fifteenth year of Jiajing.) Roughly in the next year, a story between Juzheng and Wang Xian, the heir of the Liao Dynasty, happened.In the 11th year of Taizu Hongwu, the fifteenth son Zhi was granted the title of King of Wei, and in the 26th year he was changed to the title of King of Liao.At first, the Prince Liao's Mansion was in Guangning, now Beizhen County, Liaoning Province.During the Jianwen period, the king of Liao crossed Hainan and returned to Jingzhou, which is the origin of the Liao king's mansion in Jingzhou.Zhang Zhen served as the guard of the Liao Mansion, and the Zhang family and the Liao Mansion had relations since then.The year before Juzheng was born, and the third year of Jiajing, the sixth Liao king took over the feudal title, which was the qualification of Zhuang Wang.The next year, King Zhuang's concubine gave birth to his son Xian㸅, who was the same year as Juzheng.Zhige is a sick person, everything in the mansion is managed by Princess Mao.Concubine Mao had ideas and methods, and was very prestigious at the time.In the 16th year of Jiajing, King Zhuang died. Because Xian was still in mourning clothes, of course he could not inherit the title, and he was very young, so the power was still in the hands of his aunt, Concubine Mao.Concubine Mao saw that Xian 㸅 was just a bohemian boy, but Ju Zheng was already a well-known young scholar in Jingzhou.One day, Concubine Mao was recruiting a residence and was entering the mansion to give food, so she ordered Xian to sit down.Concubine Mao said to Xian 㸅: If you are so unmotivated, one day you will be led by the nose by Ju Zheng!Xian 㸅 was full of shame and indignation, but did not attack.He and Ju Zheng have become acquaintances since then, but behind the friendship, hatred has grown deeply. When Juzheng was thirteen years old, he went from Jingzhou to Wuchang to take the provincial examination. If he passed the examination this time, he would be a candidate.There are two earliest works left in the collection of poems, one of which is recorded here. Inscription bamboo Green is all over Xiaoxiang, sparse forests and jade dew are cold, and phoenix hairs are full of vigor, only reaching the end. The poem is childish and doesn't look like a test-taking format.At this time, Juzheng's reputation was already great in Huguang, so the examiner gave him a temporary oral test, which was different from the usual format.Based on Juzheng's age and reputation alone, he had hoped to be elected.But because of Huguang governor Gu Lin's proposition, this time it failed. Gu Lin, a native of Shangyuan County in Yingtian Prefecture, was a well-known gifted scholar at that time. He and Chen Yi and Wang Wei in the same county were called Jinling Sanjun, and later joined Baoying Zhu Yingdeng, known as the Four Great Masters. (See "Ming History" Volume 286 "Wenyuan Biography IV".) He believes that a thirteen-year-old child will be complacent if he is successful in the exam, and he will be complacent in the future. Instead, he will cancel his desire to make progress. It is suggested to take advantage of this to give him some setbacks so that he can work harder.He told Feng Yushi, the supervisor of the examination: Zhang Juzheng is a great talent, so there is nothing wrong with him developing early, but it is better to let him delay a few years, and when his talent matures, there is no limit to his future development.This is a matter for the censor, please consider everything at your own discretion.This time Juzheng's examination paper was appreciated by Chen Shu, the inspector of Huguang.Chen Shu strongly advocated admission, but the inspector censor remembered Gu Lin's order and tried his best to refuse, but Ju Zheng was not admitted.This incident left a deep impression on Juzheng.Juzheng is always grateful to Gu Lin.Indeed, this is something to be grateful for.If Juzheng was elected in this year, it would be three years too early, and a person like Tang Yin might be added to Huguang in the future, and his life's career would be lost in the poetry and wine.He himself said: In the thirteenth year of the servant's life, the chief minister, Kou Dongqiao, was the governor of our province at that time. When he first saw him, he was promised to be a national scholar, and he called him a little friend.Every time I talk to the vassals and the kings, "this son will be a good man."In the past Zhang Yangong knew Li Yehou from Tongzhi, and my concubine was like that.He also untied the belt and gave it to each other, saying that the son will not tie it up in the future, and talk to express Lu Qian's intentions.One day, he stayed with his servants to eat together, and gave birth to his youngest son, who is now named Jun. He was instructed to say that this is Zhang Xiucai of Jingzhou.In other years, he will be a pivotal figure. If you can go and see him, you will definitely remember him as the son of an old friend.The servant thinks of himself as a child, how dare he think about today, but he feels the public's knowledge, thinks of death, hides it in the center, and never dares to forget it. (Letter 15 "And Zhao Linyang of Nanzhangyuan") In the 19th year of Jiajing, Juzheng was 16 years old, and he took the provincial examination again, this time it turned out to be Chinese.Sixteen-year-old Juren is very young after all.It just so happened that Gu Lin was supervising work in Anlu at this time, and Juzheng came to Anlu to meet him. Gu Lin was very happy and gave him his rhinoceros belt, saying: "The ancients said that great things bloom late, this is just for Chinese materials."Of course, you are not a Chinese material. The last time I asked Feng Yushi to delay you for three years, it was my mistake.But I hope you have great ambitions, to be Yi Yin, to be Yan Yuan, not just to be a scholar who became famous at a young age.In fact, Gu Lin thought it was too early for Juzheng to be elected at the age of sixteen. In this year, Liao heir Wang Xian's mourning clothes were full for three years, and he inherited the title as usual, becoming the seventh generation of Liao king.Juzheng's prosperity will of course increase the supervision and responsibility of the mother and concubine, and also increase Xian's shame and anger.All the resentment was vented on Zhang Zhen, the guard of the Liao Mansion.It is said that Xian 㸅 summoned Zhang Zhen to the Liao Mansion and gave him to drink.Zhang Zhen saw that his grandson was elected, and the king of Liao gave him wine again, so he had a drink to his heart's content.But one cup after another, I really couldn't drink it anymore, Xian 㸅 asked him to drink.In the end, Zhang Zhen was drunk to death, so there was another big enmity between Ju Zheng and Xian 㸅, but on the surface everything was still very close.Jianzi, Juzheng's great-grandfather, is probably dead, and he has not seen Juzheng's development. The second year of the Chinese style examination in Juzheng Township, Xin Chou in the 20th year of Jiajing, is the year of the general examination. Whether Juzheng has been admitted to Beijing for the examination this time is not allowed.In the system of the Ming Dynasty, the general examination was held the year after the provincial examination, and all applicants from new subjects had to enter Beijing. Perhaps Ju did not go because he was too young.In Jiachen, the 23rd year of Jiajing, Juzheng entered Beijing for an examination, but this time he failed.He once said the reason for the failure: If one desires the fragrance of an ancient craftsman, but also conforms to the current trend, only peerless talents can do it, and since the Ming Dynasty, it has not been seen much.In the past, when I entered the imperial examinations as a child, I pretended to be famous, falsely called Qu Song's troupe, and I was no different from others. I was the first, and it was easy to get, but I abandoned my career and pursued the classics.After three years, the new achievements have not been completed, and the old deeds have been wiped out. Today, recalling what I did at that time is enough to laugh and nod my ears.Jiachen came down to the first place, and then tried his best to find the way forward, thinking day and night, devoting all his efforts, fortunately, he succeeded in art, but he only got the first place, and he still couldn't get out of the martingale literary field and win the art garden. (Letter 15 "Show Ji Zimao Xiu") In the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing, Dingwei, Juzheng, went to Beijing for a test, and after the test, he had a test with the palace.This time it succeeded, the second-class Jinshi in the middle school, and the Shujishi was selected. "History of Ming Dynasty."Electoral Records" said: In the early years of Chengzu, half of the seven members of the cabinet were non-Hanlin, and the compilation of the Hanlin also used various colors.Since the second year of Tianshun, Li Xianzuo decided to compile and select Jinshi. Right and wrong Jinshi will not be admitted to the Hanlin, and non-Hanlin will not be admitted to the cabinet. At the time of entering, the group's eyes were already stored.It is estimated that there were more than 170 chancellors and assistants in the Ming Dynasty, and nineteen were from the Imperial Academy.At this time, he was already among the prime ministers. During the Juzheng examination, the hosts were Sun Chengen and Zhang Zhi. Because he was taking the "Book of Rites" test, his tutors were Chen Yiqin and Wu Weiyue who read the "Book of Rites" test paper.Li Chunfang was the first person in Jinshi Yijia, and later he was a bachelor at the same time as Juzheng. Yin Shidan, Wang Shizhen, Wang Daokun, Wang Zongmao, Wu Baipeng, Liu Yingjie, Wang Lin, Yin Zhengmao, Ling Yunyi, Lu Guangzu, and Yang Wei were also in the same discipline. , Song Yiwang, Xu Shi, Yang Jisheng.This department has a first-class prime minister, a first-class literati, a marshal who has done meritorious service in the frontier, and a loyal minister who impeaches Quan Xing, which can be regarded as very prosperous.
