The same decades have not been in the dynasty, what is the difference between the Jiajing Emperor and the Wanli Emperor, and which of the two has the stronger ability?
The Jiajing Emperor and the Wanli Emperor were one of the laziest emperors in the Ming Dynasty and even in the dynasties, and the Jiajing Emperor did not go to the dynasty for more than twenty years, while the Wanli Emperor did not go to the dynasty for nearly thirty years. As the supreme lord of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, in addition to enjoying power, the emperor also needs to fulfill his obligations, if he only knows to enjoy, but does not know how to govern the country, then he must not be able to become a virtuous king.
If it is said that the minds of Jiajing and Wanli are running very fast, especially the Jiajing Emperor is extremely clever, then what is the difference between the Jiajing Emperor and the Wanli Emperor, and which of the two is more capable?
Wan Li was more thorough than Jiajing's sluggishness
The Jiajing Emperor was exceptionally intelligent and ambitious, but he spent too much of his energy on power struggles, and the Jiajing Emperor liked to cultivate and refine Dan, so he was often criticized by posterity. It is true that the Jiajing Emperor did not go to the court, and it was also true that the cultivators and refined dan ate heavy metals, but in order to control the power of the dynasty, he did not break away from the court, and basically most of the recitals were still approved by Jiajing himself.
Because Jiajing knew very well that if he delegated power and ignored government affairs, then he as an emperor might be vacated. And Jiajing's desire for power is extremely strong, and he will never allow this situation to occur, so even if he does not go to the court, he still insists on reviewing the recital. Of course, Jiajing's slack government has also delayed a lot of serious things, after all, even if the dynasty is not on the top, there will be a lot of negative effects, and Jiajing has also spoiled many traitors, so that he was scolded by Hai Rui.
Compared with the Jiajing Emperor, Wanli was higher than Jiajing in all aspects of slacking off the government, and due to the dispute over the foundation of the country, due to the opposition between the courtiers and the emperor, the Wanli Emperor simply chose not to go to the dynasty to show confrontation.
Historical records:
"In the summer of April, the imperial history of Nanjing said: 'The province of Taiwan is empty, all affairs are ruined, and the upper dwelling has been deep for more than twenty years, and if he has not tasted to meet the minister, the world will have the worries of Lu Shen.'" Not reported. ”
Although the Jiajing Emperor did not go to the court, he still handled government affairs, and the Wanli Emperor almost did not care about anything except major matters. Many of the folds have been pressed, neither approved nor rejected, and they are just consumed. The appointment and dismissal of many personnel was shelved, and by the thirtieth year of the Wanli Calendar, the central government lacked three Shangshu, ten waiters, and three local inspectors.
If the emperor does not approve the fold, the subordinates will have to wait, so that there will be fewer and fewer officials, and if there are too few officials, then who will work, the state apparatus will be paralyzed. In addition, Wanli was still in the inner palace and did not see outsiders, and even it was more difficult for the head of the cabinet to see the emperor, and even once there was a dilemma that there was no one in the cabinet.
The Wanli Emperor may have some kind of foot disease, but he has not been absent from the dynasty, which shows that in the matter of slacking off the government, Wanli is really "happy".
The Jiajing Emperor was more tyrannical than Wanli
Wan Li was indeed lazier than Jiajing, but he was more vicious and tyrannical than anyone else, and the Jiajing Emperor was second to none. The fact that the emperor was assassinated would have occurred in all the dynasties and dynasties, but the Jiajing Emperor was stabbed by a palace woman who had no power to bind the chicken.
In order to seek immortality, in order to become a god, the Jiajing Emperor has been trying to refine the "Great Pill", so much so that he wants to use the menstrual blood of a woman as a medicinal primer. In addition, the slightest mistake in the palace maids could be beaten to death by abuse, and more than two hundred people died as a result.
"If there is a slight transgression, it will be added to the Chu Chu, so that as many as two hundred people will be killed."
The palace ladies could not stand Jiajing's moodiness, so more than a dozen palace women decided to assassinate Jiajing. One day in the twenty-first year of Jiajing, the Jiajing Emperor slept at the Duan Concubine's place, and in the dead of night, more than a dozen palace ladies secretly came to Jiajing's bed and wanted to strangle her. Due to the lack of assassination experience of the palace women, they did not succeed in the end, and all those involved were executed.
During the Jiajing period, there was also a shocking traitor, this was Yan Song, Yan Song's father and son, who were favored by the emperor, acted recklessly in the court, attacked dissidents, framed Zhongliang, such as Shen Lian, Yang Jisheng and others who were framed to death by the Yan Party. The reason why these loyalists were unjustly killed is inseparable from Jiajing's inaction.
In order to give his father a name, Jiajing also broke out a great ceremonial dispute, and the emperor and the ministers fought each other, which later led to the Zuo Shun massacre. Jiajing sent more than a hundred officials to the Zhao Prison and tortured them, while sixteen ministers were killed directly at Zuo Shunmen.
Under the influence of Zheng Guifei, the Wanli Emperor wanted to make his third son Zhu Changxun the crown prince, but the ministers did not agree, so they tossed around for fifteen years, and were forced to choose a strike when the Wanli Emperor simply chose to strike. Although the Wanli Emperor was somewhat absurd, he did not do things too badly, and in terms of tyranny index, he was inferior to the Jiajing Emperor.
Wanli's ability should be stronger
Perhaps in terms of intelligence and power, the Jiajing Emperor was higher than Wanli, and in terms of governing the country, Wanli should be higher than Jiajing, because the incident that humiliated the entire Ming Dynasty occurred in the Jiajing Dynasty.
The Ming Dynasty showed people with the image of not paying tribute, not reconciling, not paying indemnities, and not cutting land, and in people's impressions, the Ming Dynasty never succumbed to foreign enemies, and the Jiajing Emperor once succumbed, and in the most humiliating way.
In the 29th year of Jiajing, the Tatar Uttar Khan led a large army to invade the Ming border, and due to the poor garrison of the Ming army, the leading army of the Tatar army to attack the Gyeonggi region, directly threatening the security of the imperial city.
At that time, the ruler was the traitorous minister Yan Song, and the Jiajing Emperor ordered the soldiers Shangshu Ding Rukuo to resist the enemy, but Ding Rukuo found Yan Song for consultation, and Yan Song gave him an idea, so that he would not move according to the army, as long as the soldiers were full, they would naturally retreat.
"Bingbu Shangshu Ding Rukuo was commanded by Song and did not dare to be interested in the battle of the generals. Kou retreated, and the emperor wanted to kill Rukuo. Fearing that he would lead himself, Song said, "I am, and I am not worried." 'Ru Fu was known as Song Qi when he was dying. ”
Yan Song thought so and did this, the Soldiers massacred and plundered around the capital, while the Ming army did not fire a single shot and watched the common people suffer abuse. After that, the Jiajing Emperor pursued the responsibility, but Yan Song pushed Ding Rukuo out of the top cylinder, how shameless and shameless. In any case, Jiajing was responsible for this incident, and at an important juncture he did not order troops to resist, but instead issued a rebuke afterwards, which was obviously shirking responsibility.
The Wanli Emperor's failure to go to the dynasty did not mean that nothing mattered, and the three major conquests of Wanli, the Battle of Ningxia, the Korean War, and the Battle of Bozhou were all completed at the behest of Wanli. In other words, in the major affairs of the military state, Wanli will still manage, no matter how strong the enemy is, the Ming army will rush to the battlefield without hesitation, even if it cannot fight, it will never back down. In this regard, Wanli was much stronger than the Jiajing Emperor.
The strength and weakness of the emperor's ability are sometimes not important, but whether they have the ideal of governing the country in peace, even if the emperor is smart, if he only knows pleasure and killing, he cannot become a Ming Emperor.
The Daming Jiangshan that Lao Zhu had fought bloodily for many years was thus destroyed under the leadership of these emperors. In addition to the Chongzhen Emperor, the Jiajing Emperor and the Wanli Emperor were equally to blame!
