The Jiajing Emperor did not go to the court for 20 years, so why was he able to firmly control the situation in the dynasty?

Jiajing's taming technique

Jiajing Emperor, real name Zhu Houxi, temple name Ming Shizong (the temple number after the emperor hung up), Jiajing is his era name, for convenience as the Jiajing Emperor. It is said that this comrade Zhu Houxi can also be regarded as a piece of luck, originally he and the emperor's throne were the lords that could not be beaten by eight rods, but luck could not be stopped, like a pig on the wind outlet. When Zhu Houxi was 15 years old, his 31-year-old cousin Comrade Zhu Houzhao hung up, because he did not leave a son and did not have a brother, so Zhu Houxi, as a cousin, picked up a leak and became the chairman of the Ming Empire. (This probability is definitely lower than buying lottery tickets, so many beautiful women, two emperors, actually gave birth to a baby, which is a miracle within a miracle).

At the age of 15 or a junior high school student, Zhu Houxi became emperor in the blink of an eye and rushed from his fiefdom to Beijing to work. Because he has never had this experience, his own staff is even more pitiful, saying that he is the chairman, but he does not even have his own team, in fact, it is a rubber stamp, and what does a 15-year-old kid know? When Zhu Houxi came to Beijing, the big guys in Beijing miscalculated, and the 15-year-old Zhu Houxi single-handedly obeyed this group of big men and grabbed the right to operate, finance, and appoint and dismiss the company in the Ming Empire, thus beginning a 45-year ruling career.

After Zhu Houxi was 40 years old, he began to be fascinated by alchemy, practicing qigong, and pursuing immortality, and on the surface he did not ask about the world, declaring that he "ruled by doing nothing" to the outside world. Without going to work for 20 consecutive years, all the affairs of the Empire were handled by the Cabinet. The question is, 20 years without going to the dynasty, what if the people below fool him. Don't worry, Zhu Houxi has a way.

Zhu Houxi asked Yan Song, the head of the cabinet, to draft various documents, and then put Lü Fang, the eunuch in charge of the ceremony, responsible for stamping them. At the same time, he also cultivated the second assistant of the cabinet, Xu Jie, to assist Yan Song in his work, which was actually to supervise and prepare to replace Yan Song at any time; to cultivate the eunuch Chen Hong, the eunuch of Bingbi, to assist Lü Fang in his work was actually to supervise and prepare to replace Lü Fang at any time. In this way, the cabinet and the celebrant fight, the first and second leaders of the cabinet fight each other, the first and second leaders of the ceremonial supervisor fight each other, and Zhu Houxi, as the arbitrator, has the final decision.

So what if the cabinet and the celebrant are united, it doesn't matter that Zhu Houxi has a last resort. Zhu Houxi appointed Lu Shan as the commander of the Jinyi Weidu (military commander), and Feng Bao as the viceroy of Dongchang (Central Unification), asking them to supervise the cabinet and the superintendent of ceremonies, and also let them fight a battle themselves. Of course, the country must still function normally, normal bureaucratic rotation is necessary, and it is also necessary to let the people see the hope of the future. Zhu Houxi put his son Yu Wang (the future successor) in charge of the Metropolitan Inspection Bureau, a position that did not involve specific affairs of the empire, but also represented the prestige of Qingliu (young officials), and at the same time had the right to supervise hundreds of officials, which could increase the prestige of future successors without threatening the actual power of the current emperor.

After several operations, Zhu Houxi could not go to work for 20 years, and still put the company of the Ming Empire to death.
