When he was young, he and his younger brother, Zhao Mengji, were teachers and friends of their own and studied with each other. When he was 15 years old, he read Wang Shouren's biography, and was surprised to say, "I firmly doubt that physics is far away from the origin, and now I get what I want." I suspected that the law of all things is far away from the original heart, but now I know the true direction To study from Wang Shouren, his parents refused, so he recited the six classics and asked for it.

A new official career

In 1535, Zhao Zhenji was 28 years old. His father forced him to attend the assembly examination and palace examination in Liwei. He was a Jinshi in the second imperial examination, and the imperial censor of zuodou in ducha yuan praised him for his countermeasures, which was comparable to Jia Yi's "public security policy" in Han Dynasty (the imperial censor of Duyu asked him to write the volume: "although the" public security policy "can never be written.". The cabinet proposed to take the second place in the first place, and Zhu Houmin criticized it for its straightforwardness: "it's a little bit broad, but it's stagnant." But soon he regretted it, so he first chose him as a good scholar, and he specially wanted to stay in the library and study as a secret.

Jiajing 15 years (1536), awarded the Academy editor.

Zhu Houfu called all the officials to discuss it. There was nothing to say in the middle of the day. Only Zhao Zhenji said: "it is a shame to conclude a peace treaty with the enemy under the capital, which is recognized by the spring and Autumn Annals. If they agree to tonggong, they will naturally come to the city. What should they do if they ask for it endlessly? " "Xu Jie said:" so you must have a good idea Zhao Zhenji thought that the emperor should be asked to go up to the main hall to carry out self-criticism and record Zhou Shangwen's military achievements, so as to encourage frontier officers and soldiers, open their minds, reduce criminal law and increase military rewards. At that time, Shizong sent a eunuch to the court to peep at the ministers' performance. After watching for a long time, no one spoke a word. Later, after listening to Zhao Zhenji's speech, Shizong was very appreciative. He told Yan song that Zhao Zhenji was right, and promoted Zhao Zhenji to Zuo Chunfang, Zuo Yude, and the censor of Henan Dao. He issued an imperial edict to all the troops, and gave him 50000 liang of platinum.

When Zhao Wenhua came in, he said to Zhao Zhenji, "you'd better have a rest. The world affairs should be discussed slowly." Zhao Zhenji angrily scolded: "what do the powerful dogs know about the world events?" Yan Song is full of hatred. When he wrote the imperial edict, he deliberately did not write the words of commanding the war, nor did he send a soldier to protect him. Zhao Zhenji rode out of the city alone (only his younger brother Zhao Yiji followed him) and first went to the general army Qiu luanyin. Because Qiu luanyin colluded with Yan Song, he was not accepted. However, Zhao Zhenji rushed into the general's camp for the first time and announced to reward the scholars. The next day, he entered the city to reply to the order. Before entering the city, he had already written a draft and asked for the right to supervise the war. However, Qiu Luan was afraid of his reply, and made Zhao Zhenji copy it, deliberately delaying it. And Zhao Zhenji into, sparse do not come, only to the end of the Xuanyu play.
