(Yang Jiaofeng on the 124th article of "Daming Dynasty 1566")
Zhao Zhenji received an urgent message from the Superintendent of Ceremonies and the Cabinet, and then received a letter from Zhang Juzheng, and after weighing it up, he chose to burn Zhang Juzheng's letter and let Hai Rui retry the Qin case.
In this case, the trial of the truth is a catastrophe, not to try the truth is also a catastrophe, in the face of the dilemma, Hai Rui Jedi counter-killing, with the heart of death, successfully tried the Qin case three times, and sealed the confession and submitted it to the imperial court.
And along with the confession, there was Yang Jinshui...
Yang Jiaofeng on "Daming Dynasty 1566" No. 124: Daming Dynasty: Analysis of the power plot behind Yang Jinshui's pretending to be crazy, worthy of Lü Fang's favorite son!
One
Yang Jinshui's actor Wang Jinsong teacher, Niu, whether it is Yang Jinshui who plays crazy, or Yang Jinshui in the play plays crazy, is absolutely amazing. Filming summer scenes in the winter, I really suffered, the bucket of cold water was poured on the body, and I Yang Jiaofeng looked at it and shivered...
Returning to the truth, Yang Jinshui arrived in the capital under the escort of the two Jinyi guards, in order to act like a real madman, he was incontinent of bowel and urination, it was summer again, the stench was bad, and the Shi Gonggong who was guarding the door covered his nose and did not dare to come closer, saying "Do evil!" ”
Shi Gonggong is Chen Hong's man, although he has been hiding very deeply, and so far he has not done anything out of the ordinary, but a sentence of "doing evil" also shows his feelings.
As the onlookers said:
"It's Gonggong Yang!" Jiangnan Weaving Bureau Zhejiang City Shipping Division, the money of the tube is enough for half of the Ming Dynasty to spend! ”
A powerful and powerful rich man whose term of office as the head of the Ma Listing Department will expire and he can enter the ceremonial superintendent when he returns to Beijing ends up like this. And the Jiajing Emperor escorted Yang Jinshui into Beijing in this way, in the final analysis, it was to show everyone and give others a warning. In the Zhejiang ink corruption case, no matter who was found, even Yang Jinshui, a big red man around Lü Fang, even if he brought a lot of money to the palace, he did not hesitate.
Yang Jinshui's entry into Beijing is so grand that it will inevitably attract the attention of forces from all sides, and everyone is pregnant with a ghost fetus and plays their own small calculations.
The most excited person must be Chen Hong, for Chen Hong, he does not care what strict party, what kind of clear stream, he only has one backer, that is, the emperor. There was only one way to ascend, and that was the path of Si LiJian, but unfortunately Lü Fang was still ahead of him, and although he was temporarily sent to Xiu Ji Lang, he was not sure when he would return.
Therefore, he had a mind at this time, that is, to test that Yang Jinshui was a fake madness, and if Yang Jinshui was a fake madness, then it was a bully. Then you can dig deep into who is the bully who is the mastermind, and it will inevitably involve Lü Fang, as a eunuch in the palace, if you want to stand up, there is only one principle, that is, you must not deceive the king, which is a big taboo.
Two
The following is the highlight, Yang Jiaofeng to give you an analysis, why should Yang Jinshui pretend to be crazy, is there no other choice?
Yang Jinshui is not a bad person in the traditional sense, although he is greedy for money, although he regards the people as grass and mustard, the principle of his work is that everything is based on the holy will of the Jiajing Emperor. On this basis, he tried his best to protect the people around him, such as Shen Yishi, Yunniang, and Gao Hanwen, which was very similar to His Father Lu Fang, and became his most trusted Son.
Lü Fang herself commented on him:
"Good times are better than anyone, bad times are worse than anyone!"
Yang Jinshui himself admitted that he was a dog sent to Zhejiang by the old ancestor (Lü Fang) to take care of the family for the emperor. As we have calculated earlier, according to shen Yishi's account book analysis, there are four million silk produced in twenty years, of which 2.1 million belong to the Weaving Bureau, one million to Yan Dang, and 900,000 to Shen Yishi.
Yang Jinshui was the head of the family sent by the Jiajing Emperor to Zhejiang to be responsible for dividends, and he shared more than 50% of the profits, which was right for him to be pressed into Beijing and the crowd said that he had provided half of the expenses of the Ming Dynasty. Yan Dang divided 25% of the profits, and the Jiajing Emperor once said:
"One or two pieces of silver, twelve dollars to the treasury, four dollars to them, confessed, ten dollars to the treasury, six dollars to them, and they also confessed, if they want to fish more..."
Shen Yishi's account book shows that the dividends accounted for by the Yan Party are in the middle of this ratio, that is, between the three points and five third points between the palace and the Yan Party.
So this time Shen Yishi self-immolated and died, Yang Jinshui panicked, he became crazy is not a problem with dividends, but a mistake in Hai Rui, who tried the case. Because Hai Rui tried out the matter behind the corruption, there was only one related to Yang Jinshui - "destroying the embankment and flooding the field", which not only involved the Yan Party, but also involved the palace!
Three
Why did Yang Jinshui, who was hiding in the side room of the interrogation room, tremble when he listened to Hai Rui's trial?
Because he knew that the difficult moment he was facing had arrived, and there were two paths in front of him:
One way is to die, to die as heroically as Shen Yishi, but unfortunately Yang Jinshui can't do it, he has told Yunniang, evaluating Shen Yishi's death:
"Clap your hands and go, he's a blessed man!"
If Yang Jinshui can say this, it means that he can't leave with two hands, and if he also walks like this, then it is "three hundred and two silver here." They really fell into the Yan Party's set, and what they most wanted to see was the death of Yang Jinshui, Yang Jinshui represented Lü Fang, and Lü Fang represented the Jiajing Emperor. Forcing Yang Jinshui to die, that is, punching the Jiajing Emperor in the face, then will the Jiajing Emperor spare the Qing School?
Don't forget what is the principle of strict party doing things over the years?
As long as the emperor is involved, they can sit back and relax, Yang Jinshui represents the emperor, he can't die!
Hu Zongxian also once said:
"All the officials in my Daming Dynasty have a way to retreat, and it is a big deal to resign and go home, only the eunuchs have no way out."
Yes, this is true, Yang Jinshui's life is not in his own hands, but in the hands of the emperor, and when he dies, no one will ever pass on the true situation in Zhejiang to the Jiajing Emperor. It is not terrible to make mistakes, the most terrible thing is not to speak to the Jiajing Emperor, or to say lies, this is the big taboo.
This is also why the Jiajing Emperor saw that Lü Fang had hidden his sight of Yan Song and Xu Jie, and then imprisoned them, and he also chose to retreat, not to see Yang Jinshui, not to go out, in the end, he was going to learn the truth of the matter from Yang Jinshui's mouth.
Therefore, Yang Jinshui did not dare to die, and Lü Fang would not let him die, he died, he proved his guilt, so what should his boss Lü Fang do?
Four
If you can't die, you have to live, but it's too difficult to live, Yang Jinshui saw the strength of Hai Rui's trial, and he also knew that he was a lord who was not afraid of heaven. It doesn't matter what crime he is convicted of, but if it involves the Jiajing Emperor, then the crime should be killed.
Therefore, he must not be able to let Hai Rui judge anything, but he can't die, Yang Jinshui creatively sprouted a countermeasure - crazy!
Only crazy, then the two lines of the case, one is to the Strict Party, you love how to try, in line with the expectations of everyone. The other one pointed to the Jiajing Emperor, but Yang Jinshui was crazy, which meant that this line was also broken, and everyone knew that there was something wrong here, but everyone couldn't do anything with Yang Jinshui.
After all, being able to judge whether he was crazy or not was not what Hai Rui said, nor what Chen Hong said, but what the Jiajing Emperor said!
As mentioned just now, if Yang Jinshui is a fake madman, then Lu Fangtie will not be able to keep it, which is why Chen Hong tried Yang Jinshui vigorously. However, Yang Jinshui is also a man, whether it is pouring cold water or pricking needles, Yang Jinshui did not wrinkle his brow.
For the Jiajing Emperor, he could not let him show his stuffing until he heard Yang Jinshui's report, so he sent Huang Jin to supervise it at the beginning. Only then did Huang Jin stop the little eunuch from insulting Yang Jinshui, and regardless of whether Chen Hong would be angry afterwards, he sent this little eunuch to the Shangsi Prison.
At the same time, the Jiajing Emperor also received two urgent deliveries, one was an urgent message from Hu Zongxian who had just won the battle, and the other was the confession of Zheng Bichang and He Maocai of Hai Rui's third trial. It was precisely for this reason that the Jiajing Emperor knew that he was still inseparable from Hu Zongxian and still did not have the conditions to be strict, and thinking of this, this was called taking Yang Jinshui.
Hearing that Chen Hong was testing Yang Jinshui, the Jiajing Emperor was a little annoyed:
"Bring Yang Jinshui with you immediately!" Fall down to see where the monsters he brings! Ask Huang Jin to bring him alone. ”
Five
Chen Hong did not test that Yang Jinshui was pretending to be crazy, he was a little annoyed, and when Huang Jin came to call, he showed disbelief:
"What did the emperor say?" You say it again? ”
After Yang Jinshui was brought into the Jiajing Emperor's jingsha, there were only two people left on the scene, he and the Jiajing Emperor, where he knelt, were facing three plates, and these three tablets had a history:
The three plates were all sealed by the Jiajing Emperor himself, the number of words is too long, so choose the last four words, namely, Feiyuan Zhenjun, Zhongxiao Emperor Jun, and Wanshou Emperor Jun.
When the Jiajing Emperor asked Yang Jinshui:
"Who's sitting under the Spirit Heavens?"
Yang Jinshui replied three times as "Feiyuan Zhenjun", "Zhongxiao Emperor Jun", and "Wanshou Emperor Jun".
When asked:
"Who are you?"
Yang Jinshui replied that "Guangling San", that is, Shen Yishi, and complained that he was harmed by Yang Jinshui, and why he was harmed by Yang Jinshui, because Yang Jinshui asked him to weave silk and finish weaving silk:
"There are too many, I can't wear it, the emperor can't wear it, many people can't wear it..."
The Jiajing Emperor also entered the role and gave Yang Jinshui a reason to retreat:
"Who the hell is it for?" Say it, Feiyuan Zhenjun Zhongxiao Emperor Jun Wanshou Emperor will forgive you for your innocence. ”
Six
At this time, the Jiajing Emperor had already determined that Yang Jinshui was not crazy, he was telling the Jiajing Emperor where Shen Yishi's money had gone, and why he was pretending to be crazy:
"Zheng Bichang... He Maocai... There are also Yan Ge Lao, Xiao Ge Lao... Too much...... All wear my clothes, with my money..."
Just saying that these things have not yet explained the whereabouts of Shen Yishi's money, and he also said that Hu Zongxian was not a member of the Weaving Bureau, it shows that he did not know. Asking Lü Fang again, Yang Jinshui replied that Lü Fang died a hundred years ago, which means that Lü Fang will inevitably shut up and will not say anything, and asked Yang Jinshui:
Yang Jinshui was also dead. He killed me, and I've taken him with me..."
As a result, the Jiajing Emperor was completely relieved, no matter how this case was investigated, it would not find his own head, because the clue was broken, Yang Jinshui was crazy, and Lü Fang would shut up again.
Therefore, the seemingly mysterious dialogue is actually Yang Jinshui reporting to the Jiajing Emperor on the situation in Zhejiang, and Yang Jinshui, who completed his mission, really saved his life:
"Heaven punishes, but it does not punish." These two slaves immediately sent him to the Heavenly Temple, there were Lan Zhenren there, and li ghosts did not dare to pestering him anymore. ”
The "powerful ghost" is the person who hopes that Yang Jinshui will die, where do they still have the opportunity to judge Yang Jinshui?
This was all about Yang Jinshui pretending to be crazy, and after this disaster, the Jiajing Emperor chose to give Yan Dang another chance to collect salt taxes. As a result, the Strict Party gained inches and the money invaded exceeded the proportion of the share, which ushered in the demise...
?
And Yang Jinshui, in the end, and Lü Fang were able to go to Zhu Yuanzhang to guard the mausoleum, which was also a life saved!
