To say when the eunuchs began, this may lack clear historical records, but from the beginning of the feudal dynasty, accompanied by these loyal guardians of imperial power, under the influence of the ancient patriarchal system, no filial piety has three, no queen is great, these people have no children, the only sustenance is the emperor, or the master they serve, in addition to the emperor, the prince, the concubine, the princes are all served by certain eunuchs, most of these eunuchs have common diseases, greed for money, love of power, like to collect sons, and are very good at reading people's hearts, It can be said that it is a roundworm in the belly of the emperor, and it is also the person most trusted by the emperor, after all, he is close to the emperor's living, and in the Ming Dynasty, because of Zhu Zhanji's trust, let them read, and also have the right to wear red, and later the emperor set up a mining tax eunuch, and even the governor of the East Factory, the balance of jinyi guards, as well as military institutions such as the imperial horse supervisor, it can be said that the status of eunuchs has reached a new historical height, and in this environment, there are also many famous eunuchs, who are good or bad, or loyal, or sleek and sophisticated, All show the particularity of this special profession, even Zhang Juzheng needs to befriend Feng Bao to change the law, which shows what wonderful stories do those great eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty have?
First of all, the famous Three Treasures eunuch Zheng He, originally surnamed Ma, later dispersed in the war, was recruited into the palace as a eunuch, and was later assigned to the Yan King's Palace, the Battle of Jingnan neutral merit, deep Yongle Emperor trust, later named to publicize the national prestige, there are also inspectors of jianwen's whereabouts, driven by many factors, this great eunuch led a huge fleet of ships to the West seven times, the middle inevitably used force, and pirates to fight, will also peacefully communicate with some countries, and finally preached the great ming national prestige, all states came to the dynasty, adding bricks to the yongle prosperity, But also for the progress of navigation technology to provide a realistic basis, the most important thing is that the big treasure ship is leading the world for many years, representing the peak of China's navigation technology, which is also the most positive eunuch of Daming, both literary and martial arts, dare to act boldly, Yongle Emperor is very happy, there is also a certain impact on Xuande, after all, Yongle Emperor's confidants, are fond of Zhu Zhanji, and later Zhu Gao forbade the sea, Zhu Zhanji in order to meet the dream of this master, let him go to the sea for the last time, which is contrary to Zhu Yuanzhang's training, and even to be impeached by courtiers. Zhu Zhanji was still willing to carry the pot for the master, and finally opened up the eunuch literacy, intending to support the eunuchs to resist the increasingly powerful cabinet, while reducing the workload of the emperor, so that there was the next grand eunuch.
After Zhu Zhanji's death, Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne, Wang Zhen was the first beneficiary of the eunuch literacy policy, after relying on the system selection to be reused, close to Zhu Qi Town, a greedy little emperor was quickly turned around by Wang Zhen's group, of course, this is also related to Zhu Qizhen's involvement in the world, plus the personality of people who like to be close to each other, in short, Wang Zhen is in a big position, plus the governor of the East Factory, no one dares to provoke, and later Wa Lai invaded, I think Wang Zhen instigated must have instigated, but Zhu Qizhen's own opinion must also be there, It is estimated that there is also a role of the military to promote the waves, to build a meritorious career, the result did not expect that the prince had to add drama, to beat the gong and drum, clothes and gold to return to the hometown, the result of hundreds of thousands of troops of supplies can not keep up, but also trampled the hometown land to trample a lot, the prince is very dissatisfied, so hurried on the road, the result was lured by the enemy to go deep, hundreds of thousands of troops besieged the fort, at this time the martial will be right, they carry out the monarch's orders, how can the monarch be wrong, they are saints, the courtiers are not wrong, they are wise, a look at the lonely Wang Zhen, He was cut down by Fan Zhong, anyway, Wang Zhen's foundation was not solid, he did not carry the pot who carried the pot, so the famous prince was gone, and the arrogance of the eunuch was temporarily over.
The matter of the prince told us not to run around on the battlefield, the emperor can protect himself safely, Liu Jin learned, the same is a young little emperor, Zhengde is more greedy, and likes to stimulate things, Liu Jin was favored for many years, and even known as the "emperor", but I think most of the courtiers could not do him when Liu Gonggong was alive, just add oil and vinegar to him, after all, Xie Qian, Liu Jian did not engage him, Li Dongyang or conspired with another father-in-law to get some Liu Gonggong, Liu Gonggong is to take Zhengde to play in the Territory of the Ming Dynasty, hang around Anyway, the emperor is happy how to say, of course, Zhengde for political affairs will also be handled, even if it is play, will also let the imperial court to play the important twists and turns of the horse, Liu Gonggong many times is not a chance to do anything, after all, Zhengde is still very capable, and then Zhengde went to the frontier to fight, Liu Gonggong did not know, may be the most afraid of him, after all, Wenchen at most fell into a bad reputation, and he had to be liquidated, of course, at this time Liu Gonggong has been liquidated, replaced by a warrior. The end of Liu Gonggong represents that it is useless to prevent the emperor from running around, and zhang Yong is an example, so he reminded the later fathers-in-law.
Feng Bao Feng Gonggong said that the wind evaluation is still good, can restrain subordinates, and Zhang Juzheng reached a reconciliation, support Zhang Juzheng reform, which shows that Feng Gonggong still has a strategic vision, his purpose is often the same as Empress Li, not too far-sighted, that is, adhering to the will of the former emperor, cultivating Wanli well, successfully completing the handover of rights, as for what change of law, anyway, can not turn the sky, Zhang Juzheng loves to do it, who let him be Wanli's teacher. Of course, Feng Gonggong is not without problems, first of all, like money, this is normal, secondly, there are some strict requirements for the Wanli Emperor, and then he is also greedy for some rights, so after Wanli took power, Feng Gonggong was driven back to the land because of the problem of style (corruption), Feng Gonggong actually had a good wind evaluation, which also provided an example for the next most successful father-in-law.
The last one is the most successful duke of the Ming Dynasty, known as nine thousand nine hundred years old, for the sake of smooth mouth, also called nine thousand years old, it can be said that the power is tilted to the opposition, that is, Wei Zhongxian Wei Gonggong. To say that the rise of Duke Wei is still relatively legendary, he himself castrated into the palace, there is no culture, hard to rely on excellent strategic vision and Keshi (Tianqi Milk Lady) conspired to engage in some Bingbi eunuch Wang An, himself came to power, and then Wei Gonggong began to cooperate with Tianqi, under the intentional support of Tianqi, Wei Gonggong monopolized power, mastered the East Factory and Jinyiwei, and also received a large number of dry sons, which can already influence the court, and even the Donglin Party has no way to take him, Yang Dachain impeached without evidence, Sun Gelao was sent home by him for the elderly, Yuan Chonghuan also had to give him a shrine. Unfortunately, I still suffered the loss of no culture, I didn't know how to bet in advance, let the Donglin Party influence Chongzhen, and finally after the death of the Apocalypse, it was easily handled with the lamb to be slaughtered, and the failure of Duke Wei told us that once the heavenly son was a courtier, the father-in-law could only rely on his master, and it would not work. And they are completely dependent on the emperor's trust, once the emperor wants to get rid of them, they will have no power to fight back, the imperial horse supervisor is more often, more like the self-consolation of the Jiajing Emperor, compared to the empty salary of the Beijing camp, may be almost, can only say that Wei Gonggong lost on the foreshadowing, Donglin anticipated the idea of the apocalypse, or a hand idle, who knows?
There are also many famous dukes of the Ming Dynasty, founding the West Factory, the infamous Wang Zhi Wang Gonggong, Zhengde and called the Eight Tigers Gu Dayong, Zhang Yong and other gonggongs, as well as Wang Chong'en Wang Gonggong who died with Chongzhen, it can be said that there are many eunuchs in the palace, they want to get ahead, many times depend on the monarch's thoughts, or the needs of the king, the king needs to be happy, Wang Zhen, Wang Zhi will appear, the king has a future, then Zheng He, Feng Bao and other people will be reused, and the king wants to balance, Then Duke Wei, who is good at court struggles, will come to power, it can be said that many times, the great eunuch of Bingbi can see the ability and character of this king, which is also an invisible withdrawal, Zhu Yuanzhang is overbearing, so the eunuch is nameless, and the Jiajing Emperor lives in simplicity, so the fathers-in-law of his time are also mysterious, and it can only be said that the emperor influences the father-in-law, and the good boss will have the assistance of the practical and capable father-in-law, drinking and pecking, all have a fixed number, can not be forced.
