Yan Song is a famous corrupt official and a traitorous minister in Chinese history, and he can be ranked with He Yan, but because Yan Song is so famous, his son Yan Shifan is unknown to many people.
In fact, Yan Shifan can definitely be called one of the top smart people at that time, and helped his father to do a lot of things, Yan Song was already more than seventy years old when he was the first assistant, and he often couldn't react to the capricious Jiajing, and many things relied on Yan Shifan to break the siege.
In particular, the Jiajing Emperor especially liked something called Qingzi in his later years, what is this Qingzi, that is, to write some beautiful words, and then burn them and show them to God.
The more this thing is written in the clouds, the more Jiajing likes it, many of Yan Song's green words are Yan Shifan's labor, after all, the cattle people, the old man of seventy or eighty, the energy is not so exuberant, many things are done by Yan Shifan in private, Yan Song is responsible for snot and tears in front of Jiajing when there is a crisis.
Father and son worked together, Yan Song this first auxiliary for 14 years, is the longest time in the Jiajing Dynasty, Yan Shifan is indispensable, many people have examined that the protagonist of "Golden Plum Bottle" Ximen Qing, is alluding to Yan Shifan.
Because yan Shifan's east building, nicknamed Qing'er, has a much worse reputation in the township than Ximen Qing, but this question is still inconclusive, but because of various coincidences in name and behavior, many people firmly believe that Ximen Qing's original form is Yan Shifan, which Wang Shizhen used to satirize Yan Shifan.
In the novel, Ximen Qing's fate is very tragic, the same in reality, Yan Shifan's fate is also very tragic, Yan Shifan this person is known as the first ghost of the Ming Dynasty, smart is smart, but the royal power does not know how to low-key, originally Yan Song was deposed, he was also assigned to Leizhou, did not expect that he secretly ran back to his hometown, in his hometown that is misbehaving.
Xu Jie Zhang Juzheng and others in the dprk really couldn't stand it, so they simply arrested Yan Shifan in Beijing and tried him, but even if Yan Shifan was in prison, he still went his own way, and he felt that no one could help him.
Because strictly speaking, Yan Song was only deposed, not guilty, because the father and son of the Yan family only grasped the biggest characteristic of the Jiajing Emperor, that is, they did not admit their guilt and mistakes.
Yan Song as the first assistant, many of his actions are essentially representative of the emperor, so over the years there have been people who want to report Yan Song, but Yan Song has not fallen, the reason is that Yan Song can not be wrong, because Jiajing will not admit his mistakes.
Yan Song was deposed, also because of Xu Jie's Tao, and in November 1561, a fire broke out in the Western Garden, destroying the Yongshou Palace where Zhu Houxi lived. He did not want to return to the Forbidden City, so he consulted with Yan Song and Xu Jie to rebuild the Yongshou Palace.
Yan Song as the first assistant, that no money is also very difficult, did not expect Xu Jie said that no money can be repaired, this can make Jiajing happy to be broken, Xu Jie said that no money can also be repaired, is when the three halls were repaired, there are still a lot of materials left, this time can be used.
Yan Song did not expect that Xu Jie even hid this kind of thing from himself, and in the end Jiajing felt that Yan Song could not do things for himself, and it was not because of Yan Song's corruption and bribery that he dismissed Yan Song from the government.
Now that Yan Shifan has been arrested, it is also difficult to convict him, because his crimes can be implicated in the emperor, especially the case of Yan Song's father and son persecuting Yang Jisheng in that year, which made the whole dynasty hate Yan Song, but this matter can never be mentioned, Jiajing is a bastard, but a smart bastard, not an ordinary kind of faint and incompetent monarch, but a conceited person.
As soon as you mention Yang Jisheng's case, that is, you punched Jiajing in the face, reported to the emperor, and released Yan Shi in minutes, and finally the old fox Xu Jie convicted Yan Shifan, which seemed to be a reason that could not be ripped off anymore.
The first is to say that Yan Shifan built a house on a piece of land with royal spirit, and the other is to say that Yan Shifan wanted to flee to Japan, and Yan Shifan would flee to Japan, which was a joke, but in the end, Yan Shifan was killed.
Yan Song also ended up starving to death, about Yan Shifan's death, do you think he died unjustly, welcome to leave a message to exchange.
