Recently, Xiao Y revisited "Young Bao Qingtian" performed by Zhou Zhuo and "Ten Strange Injustices" starring Zhang Weijian, which made Xiao Y have a strong interest in some real bizarre cases in ancient times, especially the four strange cases of the late Qing Dynasty and the three major cases of the late Ming Dynasty, the last issue talked to you about the four strange cases of the late Qing Dynasty, and in this issue we will talk about the three major cases of the late Ming Dynasty.
The three major strange cases at the end of the Ming Dynasty were the Hammer Strike Case, the Red Pill Case, and the Palace Transfer Case.
Hammer attack
The attack occurred on the fourth day of the fifth month of the 43rd year of Wanli. A man named Zhang Cha was arrested after breaking into the Ciqing Palace, where the crown prince lived, with a wooden stick, and wounding Li Jian, the eunuch guarding the gate. After interrogation, it was revealed that Zheng Guifei was related to this case. Because the trial personnel at that time were all Zhejiang nationals, and the leader of the Zhejiang Party at that time, Fang Congzhe, had a good relationship with Zheng Guifei, it was quite questionable. As a result, the head of the Shaanxi Criminal Department at that time secretly interrogated Zhang Cha, and it turned out that Zheng Guifei had something to do with it. Zheng Guifei saw the East Window incident and begged the crown prince. The crown prince also asked the emperor to settle quickly, and Shenzong favored Zheng Guifei, except for Zhang Cha's execution, the case was closed, and some officials who advocated continuing the investigation were later punished with varying degrees of severity and severity.
The Red Pill case
On July 21, the forty-eighth year of Wanli (1620), the Wanli Emperor fell ill and died. The crown prince Zhu Changluo succeeded to the throne and changed the year name to Taichang, so it was customary to call him Emperor Taichang. On the first day of the first month of August, Emperor Taichang at the enthronement ceremony, "Jade Walk is peaceful" and "Chong Pure has no sick appearance", that is, walking, normal posture, no symptoms of disease. On 22 and 24 July of the 48th year of Wanli, Emperor Taichang each issued 1 million taels of silver to the border guards in Liaodong and other places, dismissed mining taxes and taxes, withdrew mining tax envoys, added cabinet ministers, operated the center, and "moved the government and the public."
Originally, I thought that the new monarch would do something when he succeeded to the throne, and he did not want to be only ten days after the enthronement ceremony, that is, on the tenth day of the first month of August, and Emperor Taichang could not afford to get sick. The next day, the longevity festival, also canceled the celebration. "Guoqi" recorded: Zheng Guifei "entered the eight attendants, and the sickness began to be exhausted". The "Record of Sin" also recorded: "And ascend to the pole, the noble concubine enters the beautiful lady to serve the emperor." Ten days later, the emperor fell ill. On August 14, Emperor Taichang became seriously ill and summoned the internal official Cui Wensheng to treat his illness. After taking the medicine prescribed by Cui Wensheng, he began to have diarrhea, which may be acute gastroenteritis in today's words. There are many times in a day and night, and some say that they have diarrhea thirty or forty times a day and night. On August 29, Emperor Taichang summoned the cabinet ministers and asked, "Where is the medicine given by the officials of the Hongluo Temple?" Shoufu Fang Congzhe and others replied: "Hongluo Temple Cheng Li Kezhuo claims to have an elixir, and the ministers and others dare not be gullible. "A little explanation here. Hongluo Temple is an institution in charge of the court, guests, etiquette, etc., and the chief secretary of Hongluo Temple is called Hongluo Temple Qing, four pins. His deputy is Hongluo Temple Shaoqing, Wupin. Hongxu Temple is one level lower, and the sixth grade is roughly equivalent to the current department-level cadres. Emperor Taichang ordered the eunuchs around him to quickly summon Li Kezhuo into the palace. After Li Kezhuo's diagnosis and vision, Emperor Taichang ordered to quickly enter the medicine. The ministers repeatedly instructed Li Kezhuo to use the medicine carefully, and Emperor Taichang constantly urged him to hurry up and reconcile the medicine. By noon, Li Kezhuo put in a red pill. Emperor Taichang drank the soup first, panting. When the medicine is in, that is, no breathing. So he praised Li Kezhuo as a "loyal minister". The ministers were all disturbed and waited outside the palace gates. A eunuch happily came out to spread the word: After the emperor took the red pill, he was "warm and comfortable, and thought about drinking and eating." ("Ming Shi Han Ye Biography") Rihan (bū) (Shen Shi, 3~5 pm), Li Kezhuo entered another pill. The next day (the first day of September), Emperor Taichang died. At this time, he inherited the throne for a whole month. The palace case caused by the "red pill" is known as the "red pill case".
The transfer case
When Guangzong was crown prince, he favored two Li clan attendants, "Eastern Li" and "Western Li". After Emperor Guangzong's death, Western Li guarded the Qianqing Palace and blackmailed the crown prince with his henchman Wei Zhongxian. Li also demanded that officials show her the recital first and then to Zhu Youxiao, leading to a backlash. Qunchen also jointly demanded that Xi Li move the palace. At the urging of Qunchen, Xi Li had to move out of the Qianqing Palace. As a result, four years later, Emperor Xizong made Xi Li a concubine Kang, and the following year promulgated the "Three Dynasties Essential Codex", reversing the black and white of the three major cases.
