(Yang Jiaofeng on the 122nd article of "Daming Dynasty 1566")
With the retreat of the Jiajing Emperor, the situation became extremely complicated, yu Wang's nest was at home to watch the changes, Xu Jie secretly acquiesced to Zhang Juzheng's order Zhao Zhenji to immediately launch a general decisive battle of "falling yan", while Yan Song was unusual, plotting with his son Yan Shifan to break the situation.
And the key to breaking the situation is not what Yan Song and Yan Shifan want to do, but what Hu Zongxian wants to do...
Yang Jiaofeng on "Daming Dynasty 1566" No. 222: Daming Dynasty: Why did Hu Zongxian not hide in the face of Wukou artillery fire, and why did Zhao Zhenji dare not ask for credit?
One
In the battlefield of Taizhou, Zhejiang, Hu Zongxian's eighth battle against Wukou was launched...
The battle was extremely fierce, the two sides fell into a white-knife battle, with countless casualties, and Hu Zongxian was at the Taizhou Fort, standing under the highest flagpole, motionless.
Apparently, Inoue Juzoro discovered Hu Zongxian and marched to the Taizhou Fort at all costs, and the artillery fire fell around Hu Zongxian, and he remained motionless.
If we don't understand what happened before this, it is difficult for us to understand what Hu Zongxian is doing.
Hu Zongxian is actually seeking a death, to paraphrase an Internet buzzword:
"I'm too hard!"
Everything lies in the imperial financial meeting at the beginning of the year, because it is necessary to change rice to mulberry, because Hu Zongxian opposes it, and the situation has come to the present step by step. And Hu Zongxian, after "destroying the embankment and flooding the fields", told Ma Ningyuan, the prefect of Hangzhou, that the reason why he opposed it was because:
"I really don't want to see it, the cabinet elders are eighty-one years old, let these people surround them, and then they will end up in a ruined state..."
Remember, this is the starting point of all the actions behind Hu Zongxian, and for fear of involving Yan Song, he hastily closed the case of "destroying the embankment and flooding the fields". Even after he entered Beijing, he was also sprayed at Yan Shifan's deliberate difficulties and incomprehension in the face of Yan Shifan:
"You can not think of the world, but you should not miss your white-haired father!"
It's just that Yan Shifan didn't understand the meaning behind this sentence at all, and it wasn't until the last moment that he understood that he had always thought that he was shielding his father from the wind and rain, which was actually inviting wind and rain.
Yan Dang was already in danger, everyone could see it, and Hu Zongxian could certainly see it, but in the face of Tan Lun's questioning, he still said what he said in his heart:
"Anyone can go to the Cabinet Elder, but I Hu Zongxian can't go to the Cabinet Elder!"
Even when the Jiajing Emperor asked him to cut off Yan Song, he gave up his life to protect Yan Song, which is why Yan Song told Yan Shifan that in this life, he could not kill, cure, and strike people than he could use people!
Two
Yan Song is quite right, using the right person, it is not how you ask him, but what he will do. Hu Zongxian is the latter, he has his own outlook on life and values, he knows how to do it, how to get the best results, and how to maintain the image of his superiors.
In Hu Zongxian's eyes, Yan Song is Yan Song, his teacher, a person who is sincere to him, and he must be grateful. However, this time, yan song let Yan Shifan send a letter, but let him be embarrassed, if he did, then Yan Song's image in his heart completely collapsed, then he really became a traitor, and he was aiding and abetting abuse.
If he didn't do it, he violated his own principle of doing things, after all, Yan Song had hardly asked him to do anything. Even if it is asked, it is also demanded in the way of the sages, and those who follow the right path are often the most adulterous people, all of whom wear a mask of great loyalty.
Therefore, Hu Zongxian faced the artillery fire of The Wokou, he thought of death, only by martyrdom, can he live up to Yan Song's cultivation, can he not fail the imperial court, can he not fail the people, really, he is too difficult...
Qi Jiguang, who was directing the battle, found that Hu Zongxian was wrong, and immediately asked Qi Dazhu to take people to rescue him. Because of Hu Zongxian's single-minded search for death, the soldiers who protected him died one by one to block the bullets (in other words, the shells fired by the Wokou were pierced monkeys?). ）......
In the end, Qi Dazhu slashed Inoue Jushiro with his hand, which was also considered to be revenge for his wife!
However, it is written in the book that Qi Dazhu wanted to capture Inoue Shisanlang, and Inoue Jusanro did not let him be captured, which was suicidal. And in the play, he was killed by Qi Dazhu, and Yang Jiaofeng felt that the book was too idealistic, and the real battlefield was even more cruel.
After the news of the Taizhou victory reached Hangzhou, the most excited person was Tan Lun, who trotted all the way to Zhejiang Tofu Yamen:
"The work of all the worlds! The work of all the worlds! ”
At this time, Zhao Zhenji was talking to the Zhejiang grain road officials, to the effect that the military salary was insufficient, and there was still a difference of half a million taels!
Three
After Zhao Zhenji learned that the deposits of several emblem merchants had been spent, he shouted:
"Then raid the house, go and copy it immediately!"
Grain Dao wondered, Shen Yishi's home has long been copied, whose home is still copied?
"Zheng Bichang! He Maocai! ”
The grain road is stupid again:
"Lord Zheng and Lord He have already been convicted?"
From his title "Lord Zheng and Lord He", it can be seen that this grain road is likely to be a member of the Yan Party, and even threatened Zhao Zhenji, the imperial court did not convict, and it was necessary to take responsibility for daring to raid the house, Zhao Zhenji was not a fool, and eighty percent also guessed his position:
"Go raid the house now!" If you don't copy the homes of Zheng Bichang and He Maocai, copy your home! ”
After sending away the grain road and closing the door, Tan Lun excitedly continued to report on this great victory:
"With this great victory, the ten years of purging the plague is imminent, and Zhongcheng should immediately report the victory to the imperial court, ask for merit for Hu Butang, and ask Qi Jiguang and all the generals for credit..."
Of course, Tan Lun did not forget to give Zhao Zhenji a credit, but this merit could not be asked by Zhao Zhenji himself, and Tan Lun came to please:
"Zhongcheng's support work cannot be buried, this omission is written by me, I will ask for credit for you!"
As a result, Zhao Zhenji did not see the slightest look of happiness, and once again paraphrased the Internet buzzword:
"I'm too hard..."
So what is zhao zhenji's difficulty?
Four
This question should start with the Jiajing Emperor seeing Hu Zongxian:
The Jiajing Emperor asked Hu Zongxian to take Shen Yishi's account book to visit Yan Song at night, and finally eliminated the idea of quickly falling strictly, and for the sake of the overall situation, he temporarily postponed the fall of Yan.
Later, Hai Rui's first confession reached the imperial court, and the Jiajing Emperor agreed to investigate the various yamen in the palace, which was actually a step for the Qing faction, Yan Dang, Hai Rui, and Zhao Zhenji. This means that this matter is over, everyone has a truce, and the main energy is put into the war for Hu Zongxian.
At the same time, Zhao Zhenji was given a chance to get money, if you can get money, it means that the Qing faction can replace the Yan Party, then it is natural to be strict, but before getting the money, everyone maintains this balance.
However, the balance was still broken by Lü Fang, don't think that Chen Hong's "falling Lü" is a stress reaction, in fact, there is no behind-the-scenes manipulation of the Jiajing Emperor, and Chen Hong does not dare to seize this opportunity. If Zhao Zhenji had the ability to take over the Weaving Bureau and Chen Hong had the ability to take over the Si Li Supervisor, then Yan Dang, Lü Fang, and the Jiajing Emperor would dare to remove it, after all, he was serving the result.
In the end, Lü Fang made a mistake and stayed away from the muddy waters that had been wading for 40 years in an alternative way, perhaps all this was also in Lü Fang's plan, after all, it was time to "think about retreat".
Lü Fang was able to retreat, but the Qing sect did not think about retreating, still thinking about how to attack, and did not leave enough time for the Jiajing Emperor at all. At this time, he had to wait and see, whether Chen Hong could control the current scene, and whether Zhao Zhenji could get money?
If you can understand this level, you can also understand why Tan Lun painstakingly persuaded Zhao Zhenji to "fall strict", and it also reached the most critical moment, but Zhao Zhenji retreated:
"I don't want to mention this skill, as long as I don't send the Kyoshi to the sill, it is my best luck!"
Obviously, he didn't want to be strict at this time, and Tan Lun naturally heard the sound of the strings:
"Did the imperial court say anything about the Qin case?"
Five
Zhao Zhenji is really difficult!
Because Hai Rui's confession at the second trial of He Maocai mixed up the celebrant and the cabinet, then the celebrant and the cabinet must be annoyed. They couldn't tell Hai Rui what to do, because they knew Hai Rui's temper, and Hai Rui was too small to be worth their anger, so they could only send this fire to Zhao Zhenji.
That is, Lü Fang's intention to beat Zhao Zhenji back to re-examine, if it is only so, it will not embarrass Zhao Zhenji, the key is another letter:
"A torch in the southeast, the melting of the iceberg, and the dark clouds that drove me for twenty years, only between the words of my signature and the testimony of Hai Rui! If Zheng He's confession can be presented to the Emperor, then my public name will surely shine together..."
This is Zhang Juzheng's letter to Zhao Zhenji at the behest of Xu Jie, and there are several key points in the letter:
"Yi Torch" refers to Hai Rui's confession, "Iceberg" refers to Yan Dang, "Dark Cloud" refers to Yan Song, and "My Gong" refers to Zhao Zhenji, that is to say, this time is the best opportunity to reverse Yan, as long as you sign and fall Yan, you Zhao Zhenji will definitely leave a name in Qingshi!
This letter Zhao Zhenji saw was embarrassed, Tan Lun saw that it was abandoned, Zhang Juzheng actually only wrote to Zhao Zhenji, forgetting Tan Lun.
There are two reasons, one is that Zhang Juzheng really ignored Tan Lun, did not put Tan Lun in an important position, and had a good opportunity to only give Zhao Zhenji. Another reason is that the situation is unclear, Zhang Ju is facing Tan Lun, not wanting him to be implicated, let Zhao Zhenji play the front station, Tan Lun waiting for the opportunity to act again.
Tan Lun understood the second kind, so he replied:
"I'll sign it with you!"
Yes, why did Tan Lun come to Zhejiang? It is not to overthrow the strict, we also analyzed it earlier, he is the person of the Yu King, and his primary purpose is to overthrow the strict.
Zhao Zhenji is different, his first task is to figure out the Holy Will, followed by the Reverse Strict, if he makes a choice between the Holy Will and the Reverse Strict, he will inevitably choose the former. Therefore, his Qing school was not a pure Qing school, and all his actions were premised on currying favor with the Jiajing Emperor.
?
That's why he withheld Zhang Juzheng's letter and carried out the cabinet order!
