<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" > First, the costume drama "Langya list" brought fire to the Ming Dynasty court investigation agency Xichang</h1>
In September 2015, Beijing Satellite TV's popular TV series "Langya List" in prime time attracted countless fans for a time, and at that time, it frequently appeared on Weibo hot searches and made headlines.
Adapted from the TV series "Langya List" of the online overhead power plot novel of the same name, in which the agency Hanging Mirror Division created by the author HaiYan, especially attracts attention.
The story of "Langyabang" tells the story of Mei Changsu, a civil autonomous separatist force, who lives in seclusion in the south, but his name is loud. Mei Changsu, who is a male god in the jianghu, chooses to go out of the mountain, and in an instant, all the princes have drawn and befriended him in order to obtain the throne, thus unfolding a bloody plot story...
If you look at the battle for the throne from the perspective of the battle for the throne, this is the story of the King of Jing defeating other princes with the help of Mei Changsu, the first strategist in the world, and successfully ascending the throne.
However, in essence, the root of all the stories of "Langyabang" is the problem of the existence of the Hanging Mirror Division. As a palace secret agent investigation agency, the Hanging Mirror Division carefully inspected the West Factory of the Ming Dynasty.
In the play, xia jiang presided over the leadership of the hanging mirror division iron law is: do not participate in party struggle. The disciplinary belief of its institutions is that it is only responsible to the emperor, and the emperor chooses to trust the Hanging Mirror Division 100% because of his own intentions and intentions, which also makes him have absolute power to investigate the case inside and outside the imperial court, the people, and the army.
In the development history of China's entire feudal dynasty, we can refer to the fact that the East Factory and the West Factory, the secret service organs of the Ming Dynasty, were only loyal to their founder, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, and his descendants. Since then, from Zhu Di onwards, China's official secret service has continued to reach the peak of power during the feudal dynasty.
In the Ming Dynasty, the first factory duke of the West Factory was also the only factory duke with real power, Wang Zhi, and his reputation was enough to make the dynasty terrified. All of them, at the time of Becoming Emperor Hua, whether they were imperial relatives and nobles, feudal officials, or important courtiers of the three dynasties and four dynasties, they all trembled in front of Wang Zhi of Xichang.
In the play, Xia Jiang is directly subordinate to the emperor, and the rank is a pin military waiting, which is equivalent to the director of the national security bureau of a country. Many princes recognized the viciousness of the Hanging Mirror Division Xia Jiang, and either explicitly or implicitly hinted to the current emperor: remove the Hanging Mirror Division.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="13" > Second, The West Factory Factory Gong Wang Zhi has military power and great power</h1>
In the Ming Dynasty, Wang Zhi became the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor at the age of 15 and the Viceroy of Xichang at the age of 27. At the age of 33, he was favored by the Chenghua Emperor because of his meritorious service in supervising the Liaodong Army, and ordered him to lead the elite "Twelve Regiment Battalions" of the Beijing army.
Starting from the Chenghua Emperor, it created the precedent of the Ming Dynasty Forbidden Army in charge of the internal subjects. And Wang Zhi, who has military power, from this point of view, is the prototype of the Hanging Mirror Si Xia Jiang of the Langya List.
Wang Zhi was the first eunuch in charge of the West Factory, and under his rule, the West Factory once had power over the world, and during his term of office, more than 60% of the powerful ministers of the Ming Court chose to directly or indirectly associate with him.
Wang Zhi's men and his vassal disciples were a man of great power in the people, committing no evil deeds, committing adultery and plundering, and no different from the local evil forces. In Beijing, Tianjin and other places alone, more than 300 unjust, false and wrongly decided cases have been committed. However, the officials of the government were afraid of Wang Zhi's forces and did not dare to bring him to justice. For a period of time, the Ming Dynasty's unjust cases were frequent, and it was precisely because the evil forces headed by Wang Zhi committed crimes in the people.
Wang Zhiben was an ethnic minority in Guangxi and entered the palace as a eunuch since childhood. Initially, Wang Zhi served Wan Guifei, and because of Wang Zhi's agility and wisdom, he was deeply loved and appreciated by Wan Guifei. Later, with the victory of the Wan clan in the harem struggle, Wang Zhi's value and status were also rising, and he was promoted to the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor before he was 16 years old.
The history books record that Wang Zhi was ordered by the emperor to spy on the news when he went out, and Wang Zhi, who was good at monopolizing, declared personal revenge and used public instruments for private purposes. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he simply made a one-time attempt to sort out the bad things done by the eunuchs and ministers of the East Factory behind the emperor's back, sorted them out into a book, and secretly reported them back to the palace.
Through a series of events, coupled with the timely words of the harem that was bought by Wang Zhi, the Chenghua Emperor was convinced that Wang Zhi could be trusted and of great use, and Wang Zhi's career path was open and hung all the way, and it climbed up step by step.
The Chenghua Emperor, analyzing and observing that Dongchang and Jinyiwei had formed their own forces, occasionally there were incidents of first slashing and then playing, which in the long run was very unfavorable to the effective control and supervision of the Ming Imperial Power.
Therefore, the emperor approved his confidant Wang Zhi to set up a west factory in Beijing, and the east factory each guarded one end, separated the power, compared with each other, compared with each other, and compared with each other, and carried out the construction and development of the political management system of the two parties.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="24" > third, Wang Zhi was proud and complacent, resulting in the rapid collapse of the West Factory</h1>
Psychologically distorted and perverted, Wang Zhi is eager to "make great achievements and get valued." In order to compete with the East Factory, he established the most rigorous and advanced secret service network of Daming. He also did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to dig up "professional and technical personnel" from Jinyiwei to equip his own camp.
At this time, Wang Zhi was like an extreme terrorist, constantly creating unjust, false and wrong cases, taking the opportunity to create the "social influence" of the West Factory. ”
Wang Zhi's greatest loss of popularity in the imperial court was the use of torture against Yang Ye and Yang Jie's father and son, and tortured him to death. What is even more heinous is that Wang Zhi, who has been "psychopathic" since childhood, is a wang gonggong who killed an eye, and this is not the end of it, and Xichang has been arresting other Lang Zhongwuqing, Le Zhang, and others in the DPRK for no reason, causing many unjust cases in the world and causing a sensation.
"Many acts of injustice will kill themselves", people in the rivers and lakes, out of the mix always have to pay back. As the loyal courtiers said: "Wang Zhi was young and did not understand the world", he still died on his own weakness.
"History of Ming": Wang Zhi was a "young and happy soldier", so he appointed himself as a supervisor of the army, and went to the Ming Dynasty and the Wallachian, as well as the southern war to stir up trouble, and there were many serious casualties. Emperor Chenghua saw that Wang Zhi was immature and a troublemaker, and gradually became discouraged by him.
The Chenghua Emperor, who was busy with the government, gradually stopped getting close to Wang Zhi. Later, Wang Zhi gradually became estranged from Emperor Xianzong because he had been in the Liaodong region for a long time.
The dissatisfaction with Wang Zhi in the imperial court and the East Factory slowly reached the emperor's ears, and Wang Zhi lost favor, and was later impeached by Shang Ming and others in the East Factory, and the emperor was furious and demoted Wang Zhi to Nanjing.
The head of the secret service in the history of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Zhi, the "great demon of killing", has since withdrawn from history.
