Zheng Yanyi was asked by the university of the world, and at the age of twenty-nine, he entered the Hanlin Academy as a Shujishi, and his family was known as "the first in Jiangnan", and the Friends of the Donglin Party were all over the world. Not only did he achieve nothing in his life, but he could no longer imagine the absurdity of taking his beautiful little wife to practice as a monk because his father and his mother were angry, and he would have to repay him again twenty-five years later, and he was killed.
It seems that no matter how rich the family is, no matter how big the learning, "family harmony" is really important for the fortune of the child's life.
<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" data-track="3" > the Chongzhen Emperor</h1>
Ancient China, known as "ruling the country with filial piety", paid special attention to family ethics. If a person wants to make a difference in his career, it is necessary to create a social image of a strict father and mother, filial piety, brotherhood and brotherhood for his family.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to have a head start.
The Son is called filial piety in the Lower Father
Zhu Yuanzhang's grandson, The Ming Dynasty "feudal ethics propagandist" Zhou Xian Wang Zhu You stew, is a profound drama writer, he wrote in his drama "Lingzhi Qingshou" taught people to sing: "All because of China, rain and wind tune,...... Brothers and brothers, husbands and wives, Chinese and foreign harmony, so that ZhenXiang appears repeatedly, And Hundred Blessings xian zhen zhen. ”
In the view of the Zhu family court, whether the Zhu family court is full of zhenxiang and hundred blessings and xianzhen depends entirely on whether the families of the people in the world are peaceful.
Therefore, the emperors of the Zhu family have zero tolerance for major human morality cases. In fact, the same is true of the feudal dynasties of the past three thousand years.
What is good on the top will be worse for the bottom. This has a consequence: Daming's political bureaucrats often use the "family ethics incidents" of political opponents as a weapon in political struggles. In order to fight down political enemies, he even did not hesitate to spread rumors and slander and create rumors.
Emperor Chongzhen of the late Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhu You, was unscrupulous and ruled the country with great determination, and his requirements for his ministers were extremely strict. When he works under him, he is always to blame, and if he is not careful, what is lost is his life.
this! It is also in line with human nature, the leader is incompetent, always hope that the subordinates can do it, it is best that everyone can be alone, and there is no need for him to worry about anything.
Don't upset incompetent leaders, and don't cause trouble for incompetent leaders. Otherwise, the consequences are very serious, and the mistakes are all under the hands.
Just like some unscrupulous parents have been fooling around all their lives, making their homes like battlefields, quarreling every day, fighting wars day by day. The big family is divided into small families, and the affection of relatives has long disappeared, and they still prefer to accuse their children of not filial piety to him; just as some unfilial children and grandchildren are lazy, greedy, stupid, and bad and incompetent, and they also prefer to accuse their parents of not having the ability and not laying a happy foundation for him in life.
They are all one hill of raccoons, inferior and harmful to others and to their own relatives.
Whether it is the elders who are "disrespectful for the old" or the descendants who are "disrespectful for the young". Over time, it will surely evolve into a tragedy of family ethics.
This kind of life tragedy abounds.
This article simply talks about a life tragedy performed by Zheng Yan, a Member of the Donglin Party of the Ming Dynasty, because of a family war.
Tomb of Zheng Yan
Chongzhen forced Wei Zhongxian to kill, and the people were very happy.
But he also killed a lot of good people.
For example, Yang Hao was killed because of the defeat of Sal Hu, Liu Ce liaodong was killed in a small defeat, Sun Yuanhua was killed in a defeat in the war, Yang Yipeng was killed for failing to defend Fengyang, Xiong Wencan and his 33 general officers were killed because they recruited Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Xianzhong rebelled again, thirty-four people were killed together, Zheng Chongjian could not defeat the peasant army was killed, Xue Guoguan was killed because he persuaded the imperial relatives to donate grain and pay, Chen Xinjia leaked the news of the peace, and Zhou Yanru went to the front, really afraid of being killed because he reported defeat according to the facts, so he lied about winning the battle and was killed.
Victory or defeat is a common affair. The commander of the front line will be killed if he loses a small battle, which is too much. Zhang Xianzhong's deception and rebellion, what happened to the officers who were fighting with their lives on the front line? Aren't all the courtiers Chinese recruiting security? As a result, thirty-four generals on the front line were killed in one fell swoop, which was a bit too vicious and also affected the hearts of the army. The army had no food and no pay, and Xue Guoguan persuaded the emperor's relatives to donate some money and grain and was killed, and there was really no human touch.
The most inhuman thing is that Chongzhen also killed Yuan Chonghuan, and Ling Chi killed him with three thousand five hundred and forty-three knives.
For what? Just for the sake of Yuan Chonghuan, he repented of the "five years of Pingliao" promised to him, and planned to extend it for a period of time. Chongzhen became angry and killed the marshal. It almost provoked the Liaodong Iron Horse to pull the flag to rebel, although it was eventually persuaded by Yuan Chonghuan to go down. However, there has been no one on the sidelines since.
Statue of Yuan Chonghuan in Huludao, Liaoning
The Chongzhen Emperor was too arrogant, he was a young confused emperor.
Confusion is easy to be deceived.
Some people also say that Chongzhen killed Yuan Chonghuan because of the Emperor Taiji's "anti-plot", but in fact, he was still hoodwinked!
In the twelfth year of Chongzhen, blinded by the old professional bureaucrat Wen Tiren, Chongzhen killed zheng e, a member of the Donglin party.
Zheng Was also once Wei Zhongxian's enemy. Because of the impeachment of Wei Zhongxian, he was sent back to his hometown as an "alternate". Because he spoke out for Yang Lian and other "Six Gentlemen of Donglin", he directly cut his post to the people. In order to save his life, he also fled his hometown and hid in Guangxi to stay away from Wei Zhongxian's clutches.
Now he and Wei Zhongxian and Yuan Chonghuan are on the same road.
Zheng Yan was an official in the dynasty, and when he saw that things were not good, he slipped away. There is no "strong sense of professionalism" like Yuan Chonghuan, who plotted rebellion in order to grasp military power and kill ministers without permission. Now it has also been 3,600 knives by Ling Chi, knives and knives, meat have been sold for money, and those who buy it believe that they can cure hemorrhoids. It's miserable!
This Chongzhen hated Wei Zhongxian as much as he hated Zheng Huan, a member of the Donglin Party who bravely fought against the castrated party; he hated Yuan Chonghuan as much as he hated the literati Zheng Huan, who did not know military affairs and had no ability to rebel, and even slashed Zheng Zheng with fifty-seven swords.
So why? It's a long story.
<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" data-track="172" > Zheng's powerful father and mother in their respective families</h1>
Zheng Zhenxian's father, Zheng Zhenxian, was twenty-three years old and the first, and at the age of twenty-six, he directly elected Jiaxing County Order, and did it for seven years. Later, he entered Beijing and was promoted to the head of the Ministry of Works, which is roughly equivalent to the position of director of the central ministry and commission today. Thirty-four or five years old only, with this position, there are definitely young people.
Strong and strong, Zheng Zhenxian's marriage partner is naturally not weak. Zheng Zhenxian married Wu Anren, the daughter of the Wu family in Yixing.
The Wu family was very powerful, and after Wu An's grandfather Wu Sex Jiajing was admitted to the imperial examination, he was out of control, and ten jinshi were produced within four generations. Among them, Wu Zongda, the brother of Wu Anren, is still a tanhua.
The eldest brother-in-law Wu Zongda explored the flowers, and the brother-in-law Zheng Zhen advanced the soldier. The official position of the brother-in-law was naturally greater than that of the brother-in-law, Wu Zongda was an official to a "cabinet university scholar", and Chongzhen Sannian and Wen Tiren were both the first assistant ministers, equivalent to vice premiers.
This official position is different, heaven and earth.
There are so many Wu family soldiers, and Wu Zongda has achieved the cabinet university scholar. There is no shortage of such great officials as Shangshu, Imperial History, and Bu Zheng envoys. Wu Anren's uncle and brother Wu Liang was an official to the imperial history, Dali Shaoqing, and sent out jiangxi envoys, which was regarded as a feudal official. Her great uncle Wu Kexing was Xu Jie's right-hand man, a reviewer of the Hanlin Academy, who revised the history of the country, and once majored in the reproduction of the Yongle Canon.
During the Apocalypse period, Wu Zongda, who was the overseer of the State Son and the right attendant of the Ceremonial Department, was also accused by Wei Zhongxian of the Donglin Party, but the Wu family was powerful in the imperial court, and Wei Zhongxian did not dare to pursue Wu Zongda for anything.
The Wu family is so powerful.
Therefore, Zheng Yan's mother Wu Anren did a relatively strong job as a daughter-in-law in the Zheng family. After all, Zheng Zhenxian's father, Zheng Zhenxian's county order and the chief of the Ministry of Works, were really not officials in the eyes of the Wu'an people.
But the Zheng family is not an ordinary family. The Zheng family is "the first in Jiangnan", also known as the "Yimen Zheng family". To this day, the gatehouse is still there, a large ancient building complex, and it is now a tourist attraction.

During the Yuan Dynasty, Zheng Shen, the young parent of the Zheng family, traveled to Beijing for a long time. Although the official's work was not large, "the training of the doctor You Jiangdong Jiankang Road to suppress the government and honest visits", the name of the elder was only a petty official of seven or eight pins, or an inspector, and had no real power. But all he interacted with in the court were extremely wealthy people. Zheng Shen once served as the son of Yuan Taishi(元太師) and later the tutor of the Yuan Dynasty Zhongshu Zuo Cheng Xiang "Duo'er Only". Zheng Shen had a direct exchange with the Crown Prince of the Yuan Dynasty in the Family of Detachment, and the Crown Prince once went to the Family of Detachment to listen to Zheng Shen explain the Book of Filial Piety.
The Zheng family is regarded as a super family family, and the county chronicle describes the Zheng family as saying "the ninth generation lived together, the index finger was three thousand", "from the Southern Song Dynasty to the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the public property and co-food for more than 360 years". Zheng Qi, the ancestor of the Zheng family, once asked his descendants to drink blood and wine and swear an oath: "If there are children and grandchildren who are not filial piety, not compassionate, and do not share wealth and gather food, the heavens are really destroyed."
This is where Zheng Shen qualified to explain the Book of Filial Piety to the Crown Prince of the Yuan Dynasty. After the prince of the Yuan Dynasty inquired about the cohabitation of the ninth generation of the Zheng clan, he thought that it was the country's auspicious Rui, and wrote two big characters "Lin Feng" to give to Zheng Shen. Later, on the birthday of Zheng Shen's mother, he personally wrote two big characters of "Mei Shou" as a birthday gift.

When he arrived at Zhu Yuanzhang, he most liked to rule the people's big family and a good family living in harmony. At that time, the head of the Zheng family was called Zheng Lian. Zheng Lian did not have a meritorious name, nor did he participate in Zhu Yuanzhang's great cause of founding the country. Although it is extremely rich, it is after all a clothed common people. But Zhu Yuanzhang was also the head of a large family with twenty-six sons, so he specially summoned Zheng Lian and asked, "You tell me about the Zheng family's 'ninth generation of the same church' way of governing the family." ”
Zheng Lian replied, "Abide by the ancestral precepts and do not listen to women." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang listened deeply and said with admiration: "Your family has lived together for generations, and dun xiaoyi seems to be the 'first family in Jiangnan'." He immediately gave the official to Zheng Lian.
Zheng Lian stubbornly resigned, "The small people are old and will only manage the land and the family." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang was even happier, ordered the left and right to wait for the paper and pencil, and gladly wrote five big characters "The First Family in Jiangnan" and gave them to Zheng Lian.
That is to say, the Zheng family's ancestral motto of "not listening to women's words" once received the approval of Zhu Yuanzhang.
Later, the Hu Weiyong case involved the Zheng family, and Zheng Lian and his brother Zheng Xiang rushed to prison to cover up for the family's crime. Zhu Yuanzhang heard this and sighed, "There will be no traitors in such a family, and there is no need to interrogate the Zheng family." ”
When he arrived at Zhu Yunjiao, he sent the Zheng family three big characters, "Xiaoyi Family". Therefore, the Zheng family is also known as "Zheng Yimen".
With the blessing of imperial power, the strength of the Wu'an people is destined to encounter a strong counterattack.
In addition, Zheng Zhenxian's father, Zheng Zhenxian, was not a mediocre official, he was a Member of the Donglin Party who dared to directly intimidate the Wanli Emperor. The famous scolding of Zhu Geng, the first assistant of Wanli, was committed by him in "Straight Hair Ancient and Modern First Power Treachery". Gu Xiancheng, leader of the Donglin Party, exclaimed: "Zheng Taichu's (Zheng Zhenxian) neglect is a 'needle in the door' for those in power, and my generation has one more fearful friend in the mountains and wilderness, which is really gratifying." ”
Zheng Zhenxian has a strong personality and is the future of the Donglin Party.
However, Wan Li was not pleased, saying that Zheng Zhenxian "pinched the matter of no shadow, slandered the auxiliary ministers, and poured out Zhongliang, so as to honor himself by fixing his position." ”
Zheng Zhenxian, who was not even afraid of the emperor and the first assistant minister, was certainly not afraid of his wife. In addition, he also carried more than ten lifetimes of ancestral precepts of "not listening to women's words", where dare he be afraid of his wife?
Speaking of Jinshi, although the Zheng family did not have the literary style of four consecutive generations of ten jinshi like the Wu family. However, it was from Zheng Zhenxian that the Zheng family began to wash away the identity of the rich man, and he and his brother Zheng Zhenguang were admitted to the jinshi. Zheng Zhenguang is also from Zhizhou.
Wu An people don't care about these things, Wu Family University scholars, Hanlin, and feudal officials are a lot of people, what is Zhizhou in her eyes?
Besides, she has been familiar with reading classics since she was a child, and she is also a woman who "can talk about big truths". Only Zheng Zhen was not allowed to marry a concubine Na Xiao first, and marry one to fight one. "According to the law, if you are forty years old and childless, you will be allowed to take a concubine, and my sons will give birth to you. Besides, the son I gave birth to you will also read with my mother's family, where is my Wu family sorry for your Zheng family? You Zheng Zhenxian also married me to be admitted to the jinshi! ”
In the late Ming Dynasty, extravagance became popular, and the law long ceased to exist. The concubines of scholars and doctors are not necessarily because of lust, it is a symbol of social status, and it is necessary for the life of the upper class. Hai Rui, the first good man of Daming, still wants to take a concubine!
Zheng Zhenxian was a master who traveled around and often went to Donglin Academy to give lectures, and did not bring a concubine to wait for life around, how to go out?
The husband and wife are intolerable to fire and water, and they are noisy day and night. One scolds the other for having no conscience and reading the books of the sages; the other scolds the other for not knowing the general body and lacking education.
Both families are large doors, and the house where Zheng Jiaguang lives by himself is "front and back halls, large and small buildings up and down and from the house, totaling 100 singles and 8 rooms". In addition, because Zheng Zhenxian believed in Buddhism, he also gave up three large mansions to make a temple. Every move of the house of the super rich has always been news, and the entire people in Nanzhi are known that the Zheng family's house is uneasy, and the wives and concubines are deadmatched, and they are talked about as lace news after tea and dinner. Xinglin Shizi was worthless for Zheng Zhenxian.
Parents are out of tune, the family voice is not good, and it is difficult to spoil Zheng Yan as a son.
<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" data-track="175" > Zheng's extraordinary efforts - please Ji Xian</h1>
The Donglin Party prides itself on being an elegant group that "listens to the sound of wind and rain, reading, family affairs, state affairs, and care about everything in the world." In fact, the Donglin Party is basically a consortium of interests of bureaucratic landlords in the Jiangnan region. All slogans are shouted, and the main pursuit is to safeguard their own interests.
In fact, the Wanli Emperor was very sober about seeing people, just as he commented on Zheng Zhenxian above, "Pinching the matter of no shadow, slandering the auxiliary subjects, and pouring out Zhongliang, so as to honor himself by fixing his position." ”
Both the father and son of the Zheng family are cadres of the Donglin Party, and both of their father and son are also accustomed to holding their positions and honoring themselves in the family and attacking others. The Zheng family lacked love and patience.
In the lack of love and patience in the family, everyone makes a trick and plays tricks, is home still home?
Family tragedies in the world often arise from this.
Zheng Huan's "out-of-the-air" is greater than his father's, and he directly pursues his uncle Wu Zongda. At the age of nineteen, he was selected as a juggler, and later was admitted to the Jinshi and entered the Hanlin Academy and was elected as a Shujishi. Shu Jishi was the one who drafted the edict for the emperor, and the cabinet scholar of the reserve.
Zheng's future is unlimited.
Unfortunately, the family home is uneasy, and his parents have quarreled again. This time, it was Zheng Zhen who went out of line first. In order to express his determination not to be afraid of his wife, Zheng Zhenxian took a beautiful concubine to practice.
Your Wu family is powerful, I can't leave you, I can't take a break from myself! I'll go into the empty door and leave you a widow.
The monks were able to take their concubines out of the house to practice, and there was no one left. However, as mentioned above, the temple itself was originally the house of the Zheng family, and the temple property was also the property of the Zheng family, that is, the problem of renovating and shaping several Buddha statues. Naturally, no Buddhist "senior monk" stood up against it.
The Buddhists do not oppose the face of giving alms, but public opinion is not good. This incident has become a social lace scandal in the entire South Dajiang region, "quite pointed out", and the rumor says: "Only the stone lion at the door is clean".
The Donglin Party members attach the greatest importance to "clean reputation", and "clean reputation" is what they live in.
Zheng Huan cannot be an exception, he must stop his parents from continuing to fool around. The three words "filial piety" given by the royal family are hung at home! Say good "husband and wife sage"!
Zheng family plaque
Parents don't tune in, and the sons don't dare or say anything. Confronting parents for mistakes is also an act of filial piety that "violates the honor." Don't say that the court law will govern, even the Zheng family's family rules do not allow sons to accuse their parents. The Zheng family has a copy of the "Zheng's Code" of 160 articles, which exhausts the requirements for moral cultivation, the norms for walking and sitting, the precautions for production and real estate, the system of life and study, and the specific reward and punishment measures for strict standardization. But the one hundred and sixty articles sprinkled on the ocean do not say a word about how to punish the parents for disrespectful to the elderly.
It is difficult for a clean official to break off household chores, and filial piety is difficult to stalk parents. Zheng Yan decided to take a different path - please Ji Xian.
Ji Xian is also commonly known as "Ji Xian" in the north, and the southerners are called "Ji Ji Xian". It was easy to ask two people to hold a dustpan filled with rice in one hand, and then put a plate on the incense case below to sprinkle flour, and a wooden stick was used between the two. Some of the other incense candle offerings pose as bribes to the gods. When the place is stopped, ask the immortal mage to chant a mantra to create an atmosphere. After a long time, the two people holding the dustpan with one hand were not afraid of their hands and were numb. And each of them held the dustpan hard, and the dustpan naturally shook. As soon as the dustpan moves, the wooden stick moves, and it will scribble on the flour. The things drawn seem to be words that are not words, even if they are the instructions of the Mixian Immortals.
What exactly is Mixian's instructions? The focus is on explaining how people interpret it.
The right to interpret the Zheng Family Ji Immortal was naturally in the hands of Zheng Yan, and the Ji Xian he invited!
Zheng Yan was young enough to maintain the secret of the feudal family harmony, that is, to be with thin mud and "bending women and not bending men". That is, he intends to support his father's concubines and criticize his mother for being "jealous".
He borrowed the mouth of Ji Xian to severely criticize his mother's consistent strong behavior.
Although Wu Anren is strong, she is also a standard Chinese old lady, god also believes, Buddha also believes, in short, superstition! Seeing Ji Xian criticizing her, she was very scared, and she knelt down with a thud and knelt down in front of her son, that is, in front of the "Dustpan Immortal". Begging to spare her, she was willing to be tortured with a rod to atone for her previous crimes of beating her husband's concubines and the rings.
Zheng Huan was naturally unwilling and did not dare to rebuke his mother.
Without waiting for Zheng Zhen to open his mouth, Zheng Zhenxian has been a husband and wife for more than twenty years, how can he let go of this opportunity? Then he called out to the concubine and gave her a stick, "Go, Mi Xian let her fight." ”
After all, Zheng Yan was still young and couldn't hold his breath. Seeing that his plan was successful, he was also happy that his mother would not make trouble again in the future, and he couldn't help but "poof" and laughed out loud.
This smile did not tighten, Wu An people came over, knowing that he had been deceived by his father and son. The pampered big lady who has been pampered since childhood, where can I stand this! My son is older, and he can't beat him. In a fit of rage, he ran to the government office and filed a complaint.
Accused his son Zheng Yu of "not filial piety to his mother".
If this crime is established, according to the law of Daming, it is the same as the crime of conspiracy, and the sin of a thousand knives is a great sin.
Don't say that the Zheng family does not want to see such a result, although the high-ranking officials and soldiers of the Wu family are also angry at Zheng Yan's father and son for "pretending to be a ghost" and bullying their sisters. But they did not dare to make a big fuss, first, the family of readers could not afford to lose this person; second, they were also feudal parents, and in family disputes, they also held the idea of "bending women and not bending men".
But the nephew-uncle relationship is equivalent to no such close relatives.
At that time, it was Zhu Yijun, the MingShen Sect, who was in power, and this Wanli Emperor famously "ignored everything". The entire area directly under the Great South has always been the territory of the Donglin Party, where "the needle cannot be inserted, and the water cannot be spilled." After all kinds of magical operations unknown to outsiders, Wu Anren actually withdrew the lawsuit.
"Zheng Yimen" Zheng Family, the "First Family in Jiangnan" given by Taizu Qin of this dynasty, if there is a "major case of human morality", the local government is not good! At least the next time the magistrate's "Jingcha" will definitely be unqualified. The officials were also happy to see Wu Anren withdraw the lawsuit and did not care to ask any more questions.
The great sin of the heavens turned into nothing, and the dark clouds turned clear.
The big sign of "Filial Piety" given by the royal family continued to hang high.
Actually! This time there was a big fuss, and the seeds of the Zheng family, which had lasted for more than three hundred years, were sown. It's just that no one knew at the time.
<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" data-track="179" > Zheng Yu as a victim of political infighting</h1>
Zheng Yan was six years old and lectured with his father, and he often went to Donglin Academy over the years. Grow up to write good articles and talk well about scriptures. In addition, there is a big skill, "Eight Strands anthology".
The "Eight Strands Anthology" is very suitable for making friends with readers, because the so-called "Eight Strands Anthology" is a person who bets on the correct questions in the scientific examination! Readers like to make friends with them.
Admission to the expedition
Although Zheng Huan was considered an early Donglin Party member who directly attacked Wei Zhongxian, Wei Zhongxian also put him in the "Records of the Generals of the Eastern Forest Points", calling him "Di alien star white-faced Lang Junhanlin Yuan Shu Ji Shi Zheng Yan", alongside "Di Wen Xing Sacred Hand Scholar Han Lin Yuan Xiu Wen Zhen Meng". Just because he had many friends and the Wu family and the Zheng family were powerful, Wei Zhongxian did not do anything to him, and he cut his post to the people. After only three months in the Hanlin Courtyard, he went home, and it was not certain whether he had ever seen the Emperor of the Apocalypse.
But Zheng's "period for the people" was not low-key. Shu Jishi's reputation is outstanding, and he is also a famous "Eight Strands Anthology", and he has received many students. After his guidance, a few students entered the examination room to play an extraordinary role, entering the army and the first. Some students are even older than his age.
He was a very attractive person among the southern scholars, and the big men in the DPRK and China were very concerned about his every move.
It is not a good thing that misfortune and blessing depend on each other, and that the body of the cloth bears the prestige of the people.
In ancient and modern China and abroad, those teachers who have been respected by students almost all have a problem, madness! "The madness of a good teacher".
The apocalypse collapsed and Wei Zhongxian fell. The Donglin Party's incriminating evidence "Donglin Dianjian" turned into a merit book, and many people were reactivated by Chongzhen.
Sometimes having more friends is not necessarily a good thing.
Zheng Yu had a friend of Qian Shisheng, who saw the new emperor succeed to the throne and was ready to do a big job, and repeatedly recommended Zheng Yu to Wen Tiren, the first assistant at the time, to use him to do things.
In fact, Wen Tiren did not like Zheng Yan very much. The reason is that there is no him, only because Zheng Yan is Considered Wen Zhenmeng's person. Originally, Zheng Huan should have come out to do things in the first year of Chongzhen, and one of the one hundred and eight people in the "Records of the Eastern Forest Point" was "Earth Alien Star". His friends "Di Wenxing" Wen Zhenmeng and Wen Tiren entered the cabinet almost at the same time, and their political qualifications were actually older than Wen Tiren, and Wen Zhenmeng was also from Zhuangyuan, or Wen Zhengming's great-grandson. When Wen Zhenmeng was proud, Zheng Zhen's parents died one after another, and he had to "keep the system" in his hometown for several years, in order to fulfill his filial piety and delay his future.
You see, Zheng Yan's parents are still making trouble for him like this when they die.
By this time, Wen Zhenmeng had already been driven away by Wen Tiren. The cabinet is Wen Tiren's cabinet.
Qian Shisheng saw that his friend's period of observance had expired, and he helped his friend to be eager, also in order to strengthen his own team. He wrote a letter inviting Zheng Yu to enter Beijing, and arranged for him to meet Wen Tiren in order to make a difference in the future.
After Wen Zhenmeng knew about it, he also wrote a letter to advise Zheng Huan that "Jun lai was mistaken" and advised him to hide from Wen Tiren. The guy was not a good guy.
Zheng Yan had been idle for fourteen years, too long, and he did not hold back. Thinking about it, I will go to see it, observe it, what danger can it be?
So he met with Wen Tiren. Wen Tiren asked as usual, "How about the Southern Qing Council?" ”
This sentence is gossip, just like we ordinary people ask friends who come from afar but are not familiar, "What is the weather like in your hometown?" It was only because Wen Tiren shouldered the responsibility of governing the country that he had to ask, "What are the southerners talking about about the current politics of the capital?" ”
Wen Tiren's posture was to listen to the opinions of the southern scholars.
Under normal circumstances, the visitor should also pick up a good word first. Even if you come to make a special opinion, you should first say the results and then say "but...".
However, Zheng Yan was a good teacher and crazy, and he was accustomed to making a big fuss at the Southern Donglin Academy, and there were many admirers. Zheng Yan immediately replied: "The people and clouds of the country need talent, but the temple does not see the use of talent." ”
This is scolding people to expose shortcomings, hitting people in the face.
Wen Tiren really does not have the heart of the country, and he never pays attention to quoting talents. The Qing soldiers all hit the area around the capital and ravaged the territory of Daming, the border guards had no pay and no food, and the people of the thirteen northern provinces were connected by drought locust soldiers and floods, and as the first assistant, he had no strategy and no plan. His qualifications are also very shallow, and he gained Chongzhen's trust by framing Qian Qianyi. In political affairs, it is just a matter of doing nothing, and it is also specialized in conspiracy and trickery. Wanli's evaluation of the courtiers of the later Ming Dynasty was very accurate: "Pinching the shadowless thing, pouring out loyalty, and honoring himself with self-consolidation", Wen Tiren was such a master. Wen Zhenmeng was liked by Chongzhen because he was particularly good at telling "Spring and Autumn" and was able to enter the cabinet. He sent people day and night to guard the daily words and deeds of Wen Zhenmeng's spy on people's homes, pick bones in eggs, and then bribe the officials to take turns impeaching.
Chongzhen is a stupid person! Believing his words drove Wen Zhenmeng out of the cabinet.
Now Zheng Yan didn't say a word, and he came up and accused Wen Tiren of not being able to appoint a talent. How is Wen Tiren not annoyed? Coupled with the fact that everyone in the world knew that Zheng Huan was a good friend of Wen Zhenmeng, Wen Tiren decided in his heart that he had come prepared to find trouble.
Wen Tiren replied strongly, "Unless you don't use talent, there is no talent available in the world." ”
"I didn't find talent!" Where I don't need talent. Wen Tiren said.
Zheng Yan twisted his head and said indignantly: "Only when people are used, only when people are used, only when people are used, fang jin is the most anxious to defend the border, and can be like Xiao Xiangguo's knowledge of Han Huaiyin, Zong's knowledge of Staying behind Yue Wumu, why can't he succeed." ”
Nonsense, how can the world lack talents, you just don't need it. You don't have the ability to be the first assistant at all. If you are Xiao He, there will naturally be Han Xin in the world; if you are Zong Ze, there will naturally be Yue Fei in the world.
Chase Han Xin under the moon
The so-called "evil comes from the mouth." "The great talent Zheng Yan is not far away.
After the two people dispersed unhappily, Wen Tiren took out Luo Weaving's skills and sent people and horses to investigate the tandem.
A few days later, the old case of twenty-five years ago was turned over, and someone accused Zheng Huan of being "unfilial to the mother" twenty-five years ago.
It's deadly. If the sons of ordinary people do not filial piety to their parents, they will also be killed. At this time, Zheng Zhenxian and his wife were already ancient, and they could not distinguish between "there is a reason for the incident, my son is filial piety". Wu Zongda also died as early as the eighth year of Chongzhen, and the most convincing uncle could not save him. Even if Wu Zongda is alive, he may not be willing to save him.
That is to say, the mother and family of the victim Wu Anren closed their mouths and adopted a tacit attitude.
Chongzhen was in a state affair, and he believed that the world's affairs were so bad that the disasters in the sky were all because there were no loyal subjects in the DPRK. As the saying goes, "If you ask for loyalty, you will be at the door of filial piety", and all filial piety should die.
The Zheng family is the "first family in Jiangnan" given by Emperor Taizu, and the name of filial piety is all over the world, and there is even an unfilial son of "unfilial mother", who deserves to die.
Zheng Yan was also imprisoned by the Punishment Department.
I think that in the year of the Apocalypse, he entered the high school in the second and third grades, because of his outstanding literary talent, he entered the Hanlin Academy as a Shu Jishi. A political star, he impeached Wei Zhongxian for following his father to join the Donglin Party, and as a result, Shu Jishi was sent back to his hometown after only three months. This time the time was even shorter, Zheng Huan entered Beijing on October 13, and was imprisoned on November 11, and a month was not over, and Zheng Huan, who was full of ambition, became a prisoner under the ranks.
Jingshi, for Zheng Yu, is really not a good place.
<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" data-track="180" > Zheng's pig teammates</h1>
The Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian looked fierce and domineering, whirring and slashing people at every turn. In fact, he was not strong at all, whether it was the Donglin Party, Wen Tiren, and Huang Taiji, any party could easily manipulate his emotions.
Wen Tiren saw that the danger was lifted, and he was not willing to break the net with the Donglin Party. After all, everyone is in order to keep their own family's tens of millions of acres of good land, seriously, no one is clean, can not commit your life and death. "We are not Wei Zhongxian, we are tied to the emperor, why are we extremely vicious, trying to be poor and dagger!"
After all, the Donglin Party is the Donglin Party, and the Prison of the Punishment Department is basically their own study. Zheng Huan still had wine and meat in the prison of the Punishment Department, read and lectured, and lived a good life.
Wen Tiren didn't care, he just didn't know.
Jinyi Weidu commanded Wu Mengming to hereditary Jinyi Wei Qianhu and was a military attaché. In his early years, he offended Xu Xianchun, one of Wei Zhongxian's "Five Biao", and was stripped of his citizenship. Later, when I came back, I had a lot of Friends of the Donglin Party, and I was able to see the greatness of the Daming Readers. At this time, he was in charge of the prison of the Punishment Department, and what he most hoped for was that the children in the family could rely on reading to enter the career, and not to be a disgraceful spy like him, and as a result, even Xu Xianchun could not fight.
Zheng Yan's reputation as an "eight-strand literary anthologist" was well known, and Wu Mengming brought his two sons to Zheng Xun, "Please sir point out one or two." ”
After Zheng Juan's guidance, his two sons actually went to Dengke and the first. Wu Mengming is even more respectful of Zheng Yu, taking good care of him, and the standard of food alone has reached as much as "six gold" every day.
Zheng Yan After two years of "good life" in prison, there was a great drought in Beijing. The ancients paid attention to the induction of heaven and man, believing that all the great disasters that fell from heaven must be caused by unjust imprisonment and harsh government in the human world. Chongzhen also issued a decree requiring all departments to self-examine and correct themselves, "Chen Maladministration, And Declaration of Unjust Imprisonment."
Wu Mengming saw that it was an opportunity, and Shangquan Chongzhen said that Zheng Huan's crime had no solid evidence, that he had been imprisoned for more than two years, and that he should be released to meet Tianhe, and that it might rain in heaven.
It was just that it backfired, and Chongzhen was furious: The sky does not rain, is it not precisely because these unfilial guys are still alive?
He ordered a strict investigation, and at the same time transferred Zheng Yu to the Jinyi Guard "Zhao Prison".
This is a clear way to deal with it seriously, and Wu Mengming has harmed Zheng Yan.
In the official field of the Ming Dynasty, words and officials were rampant, and most of them relied on impeaching ministers to temper the emperor and calm down. There was a yan official, Xu Xi, who was also a fellow of Zheng Yu, who saw Chongzhen's meaning and added a crime to Zheng Huan, "The mother of the staff insulted the sister", saying that in his hometown everyone knew that Zheng Huan not only beat his mother, but also insulted his sister.
This is a false accusation.
This Xu Xi was still afraid of harming people and not dying, and at the behest of Wen Tiren, he went back to his hometown to bribe a brother of Zheng Huanyuan who had a vendetta against Zheng Huan, and also came forward to testify, "What Xu Xi said is true. ”
Chongzhen this gas ah! Immediately ordered the Three Laws Division and the Jinyi Guards to interrogate Zheng Huan.
Feng Ying presided over the trial, he was very ghostly, he understood both the prestige of the Donglin Party and the viciousness of Wen Tiren. After pretending to be a review, the conclusion was that "the matter is influenced, the words are slanderous, the dismissal is too light, the dismissal is too heavy, but waiting for the holy judgment." He did not mention the four words "mother and sister of the staff", and kicked the final ruling power to the emperor.
Feng Ying didn't want to offend anyone.
Chongzhen had also been emperor for ten years at this time, no longer the seventeen-year-old child, and the twenty-six-year-old adult could understand Feng Ying's slippery head and accused: "The punishment staff has not been added, and it is impossible to refute the facts, and it is retried!" ”
Chongzhen means that you have not even hit a board, how can you judge the truth.
At the same time, the Donglin Party also began a large-scale rescue operation, with Liu Zongzhou and Zodiac Zhou contributing the most. A bunch of people handed it up one by one, saying that "there is a reason for the incident", and Zheng Yan was not guilty and was falsely accused.
Wen Tiren, who had already been anxious on the side, was already in a bad mood at this time and was preparing to resign and go home. But can't let Zheng Yan get out of prison again? It does not matter whether Zheng Huan has a "mother without filial piety", what is important is not to let Zheng Huan prove that he Wen Tiren served as the first assistant for eight years and "buried talents" and that Yu Guo had no merit. If it is liquidated, although he is a dying person, he may be able to escape, and his children and grandchildren are afraid that there will be no place to die.
Old and old, Wen Tiren is not old in mind, and the next pen is vicious. Immediately on a book, avoiding the debate between Zheng Yu's filial piety and filial piety, pointing directly to Chongzhen's heart, "Emperor, there are so many people who defend Zheng Zheng, and the evidence of Zheng Yan's alliance with the party is conclusive, and Feng Ying should be removed first and replaced with another person for retrial." ”
Chongzhen hated the chancellor the most, not only dismissing Feng Ying's officials, but Liu Zongzhou was also driven away, and Huang Daozhou was reprimanded.
These people have helped.
According to the History of ming, Liu Zongzhou Shangshu said: "Zheng Yan's prison, or false accusations, how can it show the transformation of Dun Lun?" As a result, Chongzhen was angered and deposed.
Zodiac Zhou was also reprimanded by Chongzhen, and the Ming Shi said that he was "a man of words to protect the emperor, the emperor to be angry, and a strict will to cut the rules".
Xu Xi, who had falsely accused him, was promoted from a yan official to become a cabinet secretary.
Few people can withstand the torture of Zhao Prison, and Zheng Yan admits that the mother of the staff is not filial piety, and the crime of insulting her sister has never been confessed.
But it's also a capital offense. In addition, Chongzhen also brought in villagers and neighbors from Zheng Yan's hometown and asked them to testify.
Family privacy, how can outsiders see? However, twenty-five years ago, Wu Anren sued his son for "not filial piety to his mother", and there was a lot of ups and downs, but they could not hide it, and there were many witnesses.
In fact, the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu, including Wen Tiren, also understood what was going on, and the "mother of filial piety" did come for "a reason", all because Zheng Zhenxian and Wu Anren were fooling around. The husband and wife fight, and Zheng Yan, who is the son, did not deal with it well.
But no one understood that Chongzhen wanted Zheng Yan to die this time.
The more confused a person is, the more determined he is, and he must not stop him, and whoever stops him gives him an urgent eye.
A bunch of bureaucrats are human sperm and naturally understand this. Saving friends is important, but saving yourself is even more important. So after a long period of time, the result of the trial was "big opening", that is, beheading.
Reporting it, Chongzhen was still not satisfied.

At this time, it was already the twelfth year of Chongzhen, and Wen Tiren had already died of old age the year before. However, at this time, Li Zicheng came out of the mountain and rose again, and Zhang Xianzhong was killing the four sides. Emperor Taiji bypassed the city of Beijing and attacked Pingxiang, Nanhe, Shahe, Yuanshi, Zanhuang, Lincheng, Gaoyi, and Xianxian Counties. The Qing army passed through Sun Chengzong's hometown, and all 21 men of Sun Chengzong's descendants were killed in battle, and Sun Chengzong committed suicide. Chongzhen regretted that the officials had attacked Sun Chengzong, and that he had failed to provide protection.
Emperor Taiji divided his troops into three routes, attacked Yizhou, Xincheng, Xiongxian, Dingxing, and Ansu, and fought with the Ming army at Juluzhuang, and Lu Xiangsheng was killed. Chongzhen was distressed and understood that Daming no longer had any generals.
The Qing soldiers went down to Guangping, Shunde, and Daming, entered Shandong, captured Jinan, and captured Chongzhen's brother Zhu Youshu the Prince of De alive.
Sources of failure came from chongzhen almost every day, often killing people to vent his anger. Before this, because of Li Zicheng's resurrection, he had just killed Xiong Wencan, who had previously recruited Li Zicheng, and the following inspectors Yushi Yan Jizu, the chief military officers Ni Pet and Zu Kuan, and the internal ministers Deng Xizhao and Sun Maolin.
Chongzhen read the results of the trial and ordered: "Zheng Yan is cut and executed, three thousand six hundred knives, and one knife is not allowed to be less." ”
Nine years ago, Yuan Chonghuan, who was "treasonous and deceitful" in his mind, was also cut 3543 times.
Chongzhen hated Zheng Yan more than Yuan Chonghuan.
Chongzhen borrowed the old case of his grandfather Wanli Dynasty twenty-five years ago to ling chi in his Chongzhen Dynasty "no merit and no fault", almost nothing has been done by the literati Zheng Zheng, the reason is worth pondering.
At this time, the phrase "everyone can kill a civilian subject" probably began to haunt Chongzhen's mind!
It's just that Zheng Huan was also killed really unjustly, and he almost didn't do anything in major national affairs! He was not responsible for Chongzhen's subjugation.
After Zheng Huan learned that he was going to be lingchi in Zhao Prison, he was not frightened or frightened. Reading the heart, I took a brush and drew a sun on the paper, and then slowly blackened the sun.
It's a man, it's a pity.
