"Daming Dynasty 1566 Declassification" No. 56:
In the previous issue, it was mentioned that the Jiajing Emperor bought land because the Zhejiang silk merchants bought land under the brand of the Weaving Bureau, and found Yan Song and Yan Shifan, after a contest. Although on the surface there is no blame for Yan Song or Yan Shifan, in fact, it has already opened the prelude to "falling strict".
Because what the Jiajing Emperor needed was a Strict Party that could shield the wind and rain, not a Yan Party that would invite wind and rain, and Yan Shifan obviously did not understand this truth, and was still arguing with Yan Song on the way back.
It was at this time that Yan Song put forward the most famous remarks of the whole play:
"A twenty-one history only exterminates the Nine Tribes, and only my Great Ming Dynasty can exterminate the Ten Tribes!"
"Daming Dynasty 1566 Decryption" No. 56: Daming Dynasty: Yan Song is trapped by Jiajing, Concubine Li is trapped by King Yu, both of them are daughters-in-law!
One
Before starting to push the plot, we first think about a question, that is, Yan Song obviously knows that Yu Wang is the heir to the throne, and also knows that Yu Wang is not cold to him, so why doesn't he bother with Yu Wang in advance?
There are many reasons for this, let's start with three reasons:
Yan Song held the cabinet for twenty years, and twenty years ago, he did not fly so high, nor did he make the current officials so jealous. At that time, there was no need for him to seduce a certain prince, after all, the Jiajing Emperor was still very young.
By the time of the play, Yan Song was already 80 years old, and the Jiajing Emperor was an emperor with an extremely strong desire for power, how could he allow his close subjects to seduce King Yu? This was a big taboo, once Yan Song had this idea, there was no need to wait for King Yu to take the throne, and the Jiajing Emperor could kill him.
This reason is the most important reason, just like the later Qing Dynasty's He yan, the Jiaqing Emperor has already taken the throne, and why is he such a smart person not bothered? Because the Emperor Taishang was still there, the Emperor Taishang was there, the power could not be handed down in the hands of the Jiaqing Emperor, and He Yan could only wait for death slowly, and could only hope that the Qianlong Emperor would live for a few more years, unless he fought hard.
Another reason is that Yan Song is not only facing Yu Wang, but also Xu Jie, Gao Gong, and Zhang Juzheng under Yu Wang. Even if he surrendered to Yu Wang, the position of the first assistant was not his, and fighting with Xu Gao Zhang was not a good chance, and his death would be even worse at that time.
As for the third point, it is a bit hidden, and the reason why Yan Song is indifferent to Yu Wang is largely due to the orders of the Jiajing Emperor. For the emperor of Jiajing Emperor, who was indifferent to family affection, he would also do such a thing, after all, the imperial power cannot be shared casually, even if it is a son, how to become a talent without knocking and knocking on the Yu King?
This is very similar to the situation of the old Eight Yin yu in the Yongzheng Dynasty, do not think that it is a good thing for the Kangxi Emperor to ask his ministers to recommend a new prince. Don't think Tong Guowei is a fool, the day he led the courtiers to recommend Old Eight Yin, that is, when Old Eight Yin Yu left the throne forever, the imperial power was so selfish!
Therefore, Yan Song, like the later Lü Fang, could sustain a day and count a day, and it was best that the Jiajing Emperor could live for a few more years, and he could also support himself for a few more years. After all, the age is old, the fate has long been predestined, just as slowing down as much as possible, just like the qi number of the Ming Dynasty, with the profligacy of several emperors in the later period, the consumption is almost the same.
Two
Why Hu Zongxian in the play obviously knows that the Yan Party will not last long, but still insists on not "overthrowing the Strict Party", it is because the basis of his existence is to rely on the Yan Party, to get rid of his own foundation, and he himself is not far from death.
However, Hu Zongxian could still see his own destination, which was not up to him to choose, and in the end, he was able to retreat with his whole body, which was already using up his luck!
Back to the plot, after Yan Song's father and son left, the Jiajing Emperor asked Lü Fang about Jinyiwei:
"Send Zhu Qiqi to go, powerful!"
The character of Zhu Qi, is very critical, and later the plot is at a critical moment when he is at play, the Jiajing Emperor can say the name of this person, and can also give a "powerful" evaluation, which shows the rigor of "Daming Dynasty 1566".
The camera shifts to the Yu King's Mansion, which has the same meaning as Yan Song's father and son, Yan Song's father and son are pouring rain for the Jiajing Emperor, while Feng Bao at the door of Yu Wang's room is pouring rain on Yu Wang.
And the yu king in the room was arguing with Concubine Li:
"Small family, the eyelids are so shallow?"
Concubine Li did not deny the small household, but denied that her eyelids were shallow, but reasoned with The King of Yu, if the 100,000 silks given by the Jiajing Emperor were returned to the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, where would the face of the Jiajing Emperor go? The Jiajing Emperor was an evil person, let The Yu King be a good person?
Yu Wang's meaning is that the things in Zhejiang have become like this, and he does not know how many ordinary people have died because of the silk matter, if he does not retreat, then he has become the promoter of "changing rice to mulberry", that is, a sinner, which does not match Yu Wang's people.
In fact, Yu Wang's concern was also justified, which was also the reason why the Jiajing Emperor had given them silk in the first place, that is, to tie Yu Wang to a chariot of "changing rice to mulberry" so that he would not obstruct it.
Later, The performance of the Jiajing Emperor also showed that in fact, Concubine Li's worries were correct, and the Jiajing Emperor cared about his face far more than the life and death of the people!
Three
Of course, Princess Li still has selfish intentions, and she does not deny that her family is a small family, which shows that the family conditions are not rich. This time gave birth to a son, then Princess Li's family is naturally indispensable to socialize, and if there is more socializing, the cost will be large, in fact, her family is really short of money.
King Yu listened to Concubine Li's cunning arguments, and he also began to take Shizi out of his heart:
"Didn't you say that day that you wanted to leave a world for the son of the world to win the hearts and minds of the people, and if you were to get to your mother's family, the people's hearts would not be wanted?"
Concubine Li was embroidering her robe at this time, saying that twenty days later, she would take this robe to celebrate her birthday when the Jiajing Emperor was long-lived, and she would not be blessed at that time. Everyone paid attention to the robe that was being embroidered, in fact, it was embroidered with the Tao Te Ching, and it was not offered to the emperor twenty days later, but was later taken out in order to save Qi Dazhu.
At this time, the depressed Yu Wang remembered sending Feng Bao to the palace to inquire about the news, did he come back?
Seeing Feng Bao's body of water coming in, Yu Wang lost his temper:
"When I came back, I hid from the house, wondering how much credit I had, and who would show it when I got wet?"
Don't think that this is angry with Feng Bao, in fact, it is angry with Concubine Li, don't think that having a son of a child, it is great, there is a great merit?
How does Feng Baoneng answer?
You two quarrel, I just opened the door and came in? Of course not, but how to explain it when you are wet? It can only be explained as an umbrella scraping away...
Concubine Li did not notice that Yu Wang's face was ugly at all, and went directly out to cross Yu Wang to ask Feng Bao:
"You've been waiting for half a morning, huh?"
Feng Bao listened to Concubine Li's words and replied:
"Long live Grandpa scolded the Father and Son of the Yan Family for a good meal, and Old Yan Song shed tears!"
Four
Yu Wang was just about to get up and ask again, but Concubine Li stopped again:
"How did you scold?"
Feng Bao said a lot of things, the general meaning is that he did not ask Lü Fang, asked the eunuch at the door, could not hear clearly, only knew that Zhejiang was angry with the weaving bureau to buy land, and the Jiajing Emperor also said that he would give up the throne to the Yan family father and son.
Yu Wang tried to ask again, but was stopped by Concubine Li:
"What else did you hear?"
Feng Bao said that it was gone, and at this time Yu Wang finally spoke:
"Go to the front and tell Wang Zhanshi to call Xu Jie, Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng!"
Without waiting for Feng Bao to agree, Concubine Li interrupted Yu Wang's words again, proposing that Yu Wang's arrangement was inappropriate, and the three of them could not be called at this time. In fact, Concubine Li was kind, but she did not take into account The Face and Face of King Yu.
In that patriarchal society, Concubine Li repeatedly interrupted Yu Wang's words and directly refuted Yu Wang's orders, and was in front of a eunuch. This greatly annoyed Yu Wang, but after all, Feng Bao was present and it was not easy to have a seizure, so he hastily found a reason to send Feng Bao away.
As soon as Feng Bao left, Concubine Li had not yet noticed Yu Wang's displeasure, and while pouring water, Shebabala explained why the three of them could not be called at this time. Once a person is angry, the last thing he wants to hear is to explain, even if the explanation is very correct.
Yu Wang repeated his request and said:
"Give the nose to the face, don't forget, your family is from the background of picking feet and building a house!"
Princess Li woke up at this time, with tears in her eyes, turned to leave, and as a result, she was stopped by Yu Wang, and did not tell you to go, do you dare to go?
"Wang Ye, Shizi is awake!"
Wang Ye is most annoyed now with the "Shizi" to suppress people, listening to Li Fei's words, he was even more angry, directly tearing his face and telling Li Fei, annoyed me, I passed the Shizi to the name of the main room, you are just a side room.
Cough, Yu Wang's problem is the theory of birth, which is the place he values most, and it is also the place where he establishes his authority, after all, he is the prince, the first heir of the Ming Dynasty, of course, we must emphasize the birth, is it emphasized who is virtuous and virtuous, who can become the emperor?
In fact, the later Lü Fang summed it up very well, he said that Hu Zongxian was Yan Song's daughter-in-law, in fact, Yan Song was not the daughter-in-law of the Jiajing Emperor? Concubine Li is even the daughter-in-law of King Yu!
So next, how should the plot develop? We'll talk about it next time!
