In "Ming Dynasty 1566", the cane killing Zhou Yunyi is the beginning of the whole play. As a peripheral member of the Qingliu Group, Zhou Yunyi's killing was purely accidental. 
Compared with the ** of the real power faction such as the Six Ministries and the Nine Secretaries of the Frontier, Zhou Yunyi has always been outside the center of power. Inside and outside the imperial court, factional and party disputes, even if there is a tsunami and a monstrous flood, it will not be able to flood a corner like Qin Tianjian that is destined to be forgotten. The white fat is too comfortable, and he waits for another year to die. If there is no accident, Zhou Yunyi's life will inevitably be to enjoy his old age and enjoy his family. It's just that God played a bad joke with him. In the 39th year of Jiajing, the sky was abnormal, and there was no snow in winter. For this extreme weather, Emperor Jiajing was under tremendous pressure. So, as an authority in the industry and an official mouthpiece, Jiajing found Zhou Yunyi to endorse his platform according to the procedure. 
The gears of fate turned. What is certain is that in Xu Gaozhang's Qingliu Group, Zhou Yunyi must be a peripheral member, and may even be a temporary worker. After learning the news of Jiajing's questioning of Qin Tianjian, the Qingliu Group, which had been defeated repeatedly, realized that this was an excellent opportunity to overthrow Yan. With the right to interpret the celestial phenomena, Qingliu can naturally make a big article on the reversal of strict actions. So, Xu Gaozhang also found Zhou Yunyi, moved with affection, and knew with reason. Zhou Yunyi's bones are hard enough, his sense of justice is bursting, and he is a natural chosen toolman. The plan is smooth and the reverse is successful, naturally hello, hello, hello, everyone;The admonition failed, the emperor was furious, and Qingliu could also stage the plot of the Dunkirk retreat. In society, my brother Zhou, people talk more ruthlessly. Under the planning of Qingliu and other bigwigs, Zhou Yunyi not only easily attributed the anomaly to the skyThe imperial court spends excessively, the government is greedy for ink, the people are not happy, and the people are resentfulHe is also familiar with the expenses and project funds of the six ministries. 
Jiajing was counting on Zhou Yunyi to save his respect, who knew that this comrade was not afraid of heaven and earth, so he could only write a couplet for him in advance. The plot of Feng Baocane killing Zhou Yunyi was staged. From the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Emperor Jiajing, who fasted and prayed for snow, must be in a bad mood. Therefore, taking the opportunity of the pre-imperial financial meeting, digging deep into the clues of the case and thoroughly investigating Zhou Yunyi's backstage became a temporary topic of discussion for the meeting. Although, the action of finding the background on the spot and digging deep into the umbrella finally came to an end. However, everyone knows who is behind the scenes, and they are pretending to be confused. At the imperial meeting, Yan Shifan once named Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng on the spot, claiming that they were Zhou Yunyi's backstage. And after the meeting, Lu Fang said to Feng Bao even more clearly. “I don't care about you, but can so many people in the palace not hold grudges?There are so many colleagues of Zhou Yunyi, as well as King Yu. 
Compared with Yan Shifan, Lu Fang said more bluntly, he directly skipped Xu Gaozhang and fast-forwarded to King Yu. Zhou Yunyi's backstage, Yan Dang knows, and the eunuchs also know, why doesn't Jiajing, who is wise and martial, has hands and eyes to the sky?In fact, Zhou Yunyi's backstage is a semi-open secret in the court. Jiajing could guess who was standing behind Zhou Yunyi with his eyes closed. So, why didn't Jiajing go along the way, get to the bottom of it, and directly find out the backstage behind the scenes, but easily sent Zhou Yunyi offline?The answer is simple. Jiajing killed Zhou Yunyi, which was not only a warning to his son, but also a protection for his son. 
The Qin Heavenly Prison is the department responsible for interpreting the celestial phenomena, although they live on weekdays."A cup of tea, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper to read for the dayHowever, this department is directly responsible to the emperor, and no one else has the right to intervene in all matters related to celestial phenomena. There is such a detail in the play that can be corroborated. After the ambush, there was no wind for more than ten days, so Jiajing asked Yan Song to go to Qintianjian to ask for an official explanation. As for Jiajing's arrangement, Yan Song has always acted quickly and actively implemented it. Only this time, he directly replied to the emperor, and his original words were like this,"The emperor is the Son of Heaven, and it is a matter of celestial phenomena, and only the emperor can summon the Qin Heavenly Eunuch to ask in person. 
Now, in order to be strict, King Yu made an appointment with Zhou Yunyi privately and made a fuss about the anomaly of the celestial phenomena, which will inevitably touch Jiajing's reverse scales. In a hurry, he is angry, and his son is still his own. Jiajing can't directly punish his son, so he can only point to Sang scolding Huai, killing chickens and monkeys, and using Zhou Yunyi's life to warn the unruly King Yu. However, in addition to beating, killing Zhou Yunyi with a cane is also Jiajing's disguised protection of his son. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all knew that Zhou Yunyi was just a puppet, and the real player was behind it. 
If the benevolence of the Jiajing woman leaves Zhou Yunyi's life, then digging deep into Zhou Yunyi's relationship network and protective umbrella is a matter of course. Kill Zhou Yunyi, everything is over in the end, this is not on the scale;Leave Zhou Yunyi and investigate the case seriously and thoroughly, this is the scale. There was a mirror hanging in Jiajing's heart. The end of Zhou Yunyi is Xu Gaozhang, and the end of Xu Gaozhang is Yuwangfu. If you continue to check like this, you will only be embarrassed by yourself. For Jiajing's careful thinking, Yan Song, who is good at figuring out the holy will, understands it better than anyone else. That's why he took the initiative to take a stand at the Imperial Finance Council," he saidThere is no backstage for Zhou Yunyi here
Even after the meeting, Jiajing once again tentatively threw out the topic of finding a backstage, but Yan Song still chose to keep silent. Yan Song knows better than anyone that if he sees through it, he has to do it. Once you set the target to Yuwang, sooner or later you will be damaged by the boomerang. He can sort out this account clearly and calculate it clearly. At this point, the Zhou Yunyi incident has completely become a thing of the past. Slap and rub three times. Jiajing let his son go like this, fined three glasses of wine, and didn't take an example.
