Ming Yang Jisheng wrote a seven-word poem on the axis
01
Jiajing Twenty-sixth Year (1547) Ding Weike, known as the first list of Daming Keju, its brilliance can be compared with the second year of Song Renzong Jiayou.
There are more than 300 soldiers.
The more famous ones are:
Zhuangyuan was the later first assistant of the cabinet, Li Chunfang;
The ninth of the second division is to save the time prime minister, the living master Zhang Juzheng;
The 80th place in the second division is Wang Shizhen, the leader of the "Seventh Son";
Even the third class also produced the famous anti-Wu general Wang Daokun and the university scholar Yin Shidan;
There are also many others who later achieve high positions as governors.
However, for the first time in history, the section became famous, not because of these people, but because of Yang Jisheng.
Yang Jisheng, only two places behind Zhang Juzheng, is eleventh in the second division.
This rank is easy to select Shu Jishi, in other words, this rank can be entered into the cabinet later.
But Yang Jisheng did not choose this path.
He decided to repay the country with practical actions, so he chose a path of doing practical work and entered the work of the six ministries.
02
After the Gengshu Rebellion (in the twenty-ninth year of Jiajing, that is, in 1550, the Mongol Tumut chieftain Uttar Khan launched a war against the Ming Dynasty's "tribute city" and launched a war), the Marquis of Xianning, Qiu Luan, asked for the city of Kaima.
Yang Jisheng, who was then a member of the military department, thought that Gengji was humiliated before the snow, and that it was an act of humiliation to discuss peace and show weakness, so he immediately went to the top: At this time, the mutual market in the imperial court was a great trick in the world, and His Majesty should forge ahead, arrest all the courtiers who advocated mutual market, widely invent edicts, and select generals to train troops on a large scale, and within ten years, they would be able to wipe out the answer.
This article made Jiajing very impressed, so he ordered Zhu Xizhong, the Duke of Chengguo, and Hou Qiuluan of Xianning to consult with the university scholars Yan Song, Xu Jie, and bingbu.
When Qiu Luan heard about Yang Jisheng's omission, he was furious and cursed.
Because Qiu Luan was just red at that time, the ministers had to sell him some face, so they went to Jiajing, saying that they had sent people to negotiate at the answering office, and it was inconvenient to suspend the agenda.
Jiajing hesitated, and Qiu Luan entered the secret, and sent Yang Jisheng to zhao prison for the crime of disorderly discussion of the government, and later degraded him as a di daodian history.
Di Dao, far away on the border of Gansu, where Fan and Han lived in a mixed way, Yang Jisheng educated the people here, which was very popular.

Later, Qiu Luan died, and the things he secretly answered were dug up.
Jiajing remembered Yang Jisheng again, promoted him to Zhucheng Zhi County, and a month later transferred to Nanjing as the head of the household department, and after only three days in Nanjing, his ass was not hot, and his will came down again, and he was promoted to the rank of foreign minister.
In a month's time, Yang Jisheng was promoted to five levels.
This kind of promotion by satellite is of course related to Yan Song, the first assistant of the cabinet.
Although Qiu Luan and Yan Song were teammates in the trenches before, after the change of Gengji, Qiu Luan thought that he had "merit" and gradually did not pay attention to Yan Song.
The enemy of the so-called enemy is the friend.
Therefore, Lao Yan was very appreciative of Yang Jisheng's previous impeachment of Qiu Luan.
Yan Song hoped to quickly promote Yang Jisheng to an official position, turn him into his own "political resource", and use Yang Jisheng's fame to grease himself.
Soon after, Yan Song reappointed Yang Jisheng to wailang, a military selection division with relatively heavy powers, to manage the promotion and transfer of military generals.
Ordinary people who encounter this situation must be grateful to Shu Zero, but here in Yang Jisheng, Yan Song has miscalculated.
Compared with Qiu Luan, Yang Jisheng hated Yan Song's father and son even more, and just after arriving in January, he immediately impeached Yan Song.
And it's impeachment!
Before Hai Rui, the title of First Counselor of Daming belonged to Yang Jisheng.
Yang Jisheng decided to use his weak body to open the heavy dark door and let a glimmer of light shine through.
Yang Jisheng's wife cried and persuaded, believing that this move was tantamount to a suicide attack.
However, Yang Jisheng did not listen, bathed and fasted for three days, resolutely entered the court, and impeached Yan Song for "ten major sins" and "five adulterers".
The meaning is very clear: to fight against Li Answer, we must first get rid of Yan Song.
(No thief does not go, but the thief may be excluded.) ）
Yang Jisheng's performance is like a rainbow, but at the end of the article, he committed a great taboo of the imperial court...
04
He said: I hope that Your Majesty will listen to the advice of his subjects, perceive Yan Song's treachery, or summon King Yu and King Jing, or summon the cabinet scholars to listen to their opinions.
(May Your Majesty listen to his subjects and observe the adultery of song.) Or summon Yu and Jing Erwang, or consult the cabinet ministers. If it is heavy, it will be constitutional, and if it is light, it will be a tribute. When the thief goes, the thief removes himself. Even if he answers, he will fear His Majesty's holy judgment and lose his courage without a fight. ）
First, the Ming Dynasty system: the crown prince and the crown prince were usually limited to participating in various ceremonial activities, and were not allowed to participate in political affairs.
Second, at this time, the former crown prince (Zhu Zaizhen, the second son of Emperor Mingshizong Zhu Houxi) had died, and King Yu (later Emperor Mingmuzong Zhu Zaiyuan) and King Jing (Zhu Zaizhen, the fourth son of Emperor Mingshizong) were secretly in a state of contention, and Jiajing was extremely sensitive to this.
As a result, the word "Second King" quoted by Yang Jishengshu made Jiajing furious, and he ordered Jinyi Wei to arrest him and imprison him, and asked him what the plan was to torture him.
Images of Jiayong
Yang Jisheng was not afraid and replied, "In today's imperial court, apart from the Second King, who else is not afraid of Yan Song?" ”
(Non-two kings who do not intimidate the Song!) ）
Yan Song was not idle, and secretly ordered his subordinates to torture, because Yang Jisheng's host (the admitted person, who has the friendship between teachers and students) was Xu Jie, and it was best to use this matter to dig a pit for Xu Jie.
Yang Jisheng replied, "It is the duty of a courtier to be loyal to the Lord, and who needs to instruct Yan Song to impeach him?" ”
In the end, Yang Jisheng was given a hundred rods and sent to the Ministry of Punishment for conviction.
05
Yang Jisheng had a strong personality, and when he was imprisoned in Jinyi, some well-meaning colleagues were afraid that he would not be able to survive torture, so they specially sent him a pair of snake bile and asked him to take it when he was walking on a cane to relieve pain.
Yang Jisheng categorically refused, smiled, and said: I Yang Jiaoshan (Yang Jisheng Jiaoshan) have the guts myself, and I don't need this.
The pain behind the staff was unbearable, the prison was dark and damp, and Yang Jisheng's legs began to infect.
He called a guard and added a brighter light.
Yang Jisheng used the light to cut the rotten flesh on his legs little by little with broken bowl pieces.
Little by little, the fascia attached to the bone was removed.
Even the cold-blooded Jinyi Wei felt uncomfortable after seeing it.
(In the middle of the night, sue, crush porcelain cups, cut rotten flesh by hand.) The flesh is exhausted, the fascia is hung, and the compound hand is amputated. The jailer held the lamp, trembling. Ji Sheng is at ease. ）
Yang Jisheng's performance angered Jiajing, but his loyalty and integrity infected the courtiers whose conscience still existed, and everyone planned to go to the rescue.
Yan Song took the opportunity to stir up the wind and ignite the fire, saying to Jiajing: "At this time, some people will inevitably jump out and shout, and these people will not be able to do anything else, and they will commit the crime of selling their reputation." ”
JiaJing couldn't stand this the most, and the most important thing he had to rectify in his life was these heroes and good men, so he decided to arrest a few people to show them as models.
06
Soon, there was the first to emerge, he was Yang Jisheng's direct superior, Bingbu Wuxuan Silang Zhongzhou Mian.
The ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty: All matters involved in the impeachment are routinely sent back to the relevant departments for verification.
The fifth crime in Yang Jisheng's impeachment chapter is that the official Shangshu Ouyang Bijin and others once faked military merit for Yan Song's grandson Yan Yongzhong.
[Ouyang Bijin is Yan Song's brother-in-law.] Previously, Yan Song arranged for Ouyang Bijin to serve as the governor of Liangguang, and then sent Jia Ding to Liangguang to "suppress the Wukou", falsely claiming that his grandson Yan was loyal to the outside world, and installing him with the merit of a man who had hand-bladed seven Wukou in Qiongzhou, Hainan, and the military department commended him as usual. Soon, the "Yan Allegiance" shang shu went to Beijing, and was sponsored by Ouyang Bijin and others, so that Yan Song's other grandsons, Yan Hu, withstood the lack of Yan Yongzhong and became a Jinyi Wei Qianhu. And Ouyang Bijin himself was able to enter the capital to serve. 】
On the same day that the eunuch was inspected by the military department under the holy order, Yan Shifan himself prepared a draft and sent someone to send it to Wuxuan Silang Zhongzhou Mian and ask him to copy the reproduction.
Yan Shifan had always been arrogant and arrogant, and he was unimpeded by his father's power, but he did not expect to bump into Zhou Mian this time.
Zhou Mian was also an iron-boned man, who had twice rebelled against the powerful ministers when he was serving as a royal historian, and was also arrested and ruled by Yang Jisheng, but in the end he did not change his integrity.
Enraged by this unbridled fraud, Zhou Mian resolutely went up to expose Yan Shifan and rescue Yang Jisheng:
"If Yan Zhongzhong really beheaded the seventh rank, then why haven't they heard that the other generals have the merit of winning, but Yan Zhongzhong is the only one who bravely champions the three armies?"
"If Yan Loyalist killed the enemy in Liangguang and was thousands of miles apart, why did this statement of Xie En's resignation come so quickly?"
"If Yan Zhongzhong was really seriously injured after he arrived in Beijing, then why did he only show that he could not go to work and did not explain other reasons?"
"If Yan Zhizhong's other merits should be discussed together, then what little note did Yan Shifan write to me privately?"
(If you know that the loyalty fruit beheaded the seventh rank, the generals of he junmen have not heard of the merits, and the sole prime minister is the first grandson of xiao Yong to crown the three armies?) If you are loyal to the enemy, your shin arm is wounded, and your squad and the messenger are less than a month apart, how can the military situation of wanli be reported? If you are loyal to Beijing to create a very bad disease, why can't you accept the post on the day when you take over the post? ...... If allegiance is equal, please play first. Why not just use a general letter and force the judge to follow it? ）
Zhou Mian knew very well that after he finished this dish, he would probably have to accompany Yang Jisheng to eat fast food in Zhao Prison.
In order not to be exploited in the content of the text, he investigated the origin of the matter clearly in advance, pointing out that there was neither Yan Allegiance to this person nor qiongzhou's beheading of the seven Wokou, which was completely a deception fabricated by Lao Yan's cronies.
The evidence is conclusive, the argument is rigorous, and the original of Yan Shifan's small note is attached after the performance.
And declare: If what I say is false, let me die with Yang Jisheng.

At this incident, Yan Song and the others were horrified, tried every means to cover up, and falsely accused Zhou Mian of taking revenge for personal gain.
Jiajing believed that Zhou Mian did not wait for the military department to verify the public discussion and played it privately, obviously dissatisfied with Yang Jisheng's punishment, and ordered him to be sent to the punishment department for interrogation.
As for the issue of Yan Zhongzhong's military merits, Jiajing did not pursue it deeply, but only spared Yan Hu's officials and gently put it down.
After Zhou Mian was convicted of yang Jisheng and removed from his post, the case file was transferred to the Punishment Department, and Wang Xueyi, a servant of the Punishment Department, intended to insult Yan Song and draft a "false transmission of the Prince's Decree" to sentence Yang Jisheng to be hanged.
Lang Zhongshi Chaobin argued with Wang Xueyi, pointing out that there was no princely order in the song shuzhong and accusing Wang Xueyi of knowing the law and bending the law.
Yan Song immediately ordered shi chaobin to be degraded.
07
Shangshu He Ao, the Criminal Department, did not dare to disobey Yan Song, and could only confirm Yang Jisheng's crime and report it to Jiajing.
At this time, Jiajing was still hesitating.
He was very angry that Yang Jisheng had involved his two sons, but he knew in his heart that Yang Jisheng was a loyal person.
Therefore, he only put Yang Jisheng on death row and did not make up his mind to kill him.
Yan Song, seeing that there were too many people in the DPRK who sympathized with Yang Jisheng, originally wanted to make an example and leave a way for Yang Jisheng to show leniency.
However, the younger brother Yan Maoqing thought that this was a tiger breeding disease, and said that yan Song was moved, and Yan Song decided to kill Yang Jisheng.
However, if Yang Jisheng was killed on the surface, Jiajing should not agree, so Yan Song played a careful machine.
08
Two years later, Zhang Jing, the governor of Zhejiang, was imprisoned and sentenced to death because he was impeached.
Yan Song attached Yang Jisheng's name to the execution list and asked for a beheading.
When the news came out, China and foreign countries deplored it.
Wang Shizhen found Yan Shifan and pleaded on his behalf, hoping to spare Yang Jisheng's death, but Yan Shifan did not agree.
Yang Jisheng's wife, Fu Quechang, knelt down and asked for the death of her acting husband, and Wang Shizhen resolutely wrote a song on her behalf:
Chenfu Jisheng misheard Ichijing's words, and Shang Hu Shusheng's opinion, so he went crazy. The saints do not immediately add to the slaughter, but obey the officials. The two sutras are sung, and both are generous. Now he entered Zhang Jing's tail and was executed on orders. The subject looks up to the holy virtue, the insects and plants and trees are all desired, and it is a pity to take care of it once and sag the raspberry. If the sin is so grave that it is unforgivable, it is willing to behead the concubines of his subjects and to be punished on behalf of his husbands. Although the husband is far away from the charm, he will be able to die for the battlefield in order to repay the father. ”
Words dripping blood, sentences and cone hearts, cutting the liver and draining the gallbladder, a piece of sincerity.
However, Song Shu was detained by the Yan Party members.
In October of the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing (1555), Yang Jisheng, who was only 40 years old, was escorted to Xishi to be beheaded.
Penal Poems:
Hao Qi is still too vain, and Dan's heart is illuminated for eternity.
He did not repay his kindness in his life, and was retained as a loyal soul to make up for it.
The viewer weeps, the hearer weeps.
