In the Ming Dynasty, which was controlled by the Yan Party, corruption was rampant, and the country's finances were almost in trouble, and even threatened the stability of the country. As Jiajing, the supreme ruler of the Ming Dynasty, he was obviously aware of this, but he had to continue to endure the existence of the Yan Party for his own selfish interests and political balance.
The struggle between the Qingliu and the Yan Party seems to be for the interests of the country, but in fact they are all for their own interests. The fight between them has no difference between justice and **, they are just attacking each other.
By the time all the forces converged on the national policy of "turning rice into mulberry", the situation had become so chaotic that it could not be described in other words. At the imperial meeting, Yan Dang proposed to "change rice to mulberry", and Zhang Juzheng had already foreseen the failure of this national policy in Zhejiang.
However, in order to overthrow the Yan Party, the Qingliu chose to remain silent, hoping to cause a fire in Zhejiang.
Although King Yu (and his concubine Concubine Li) were both heirs of the Ming Empire, they had different views on the control of the country. King Yu thought that Jiangshan belonged to the Zhu family, and if he intervened too much, it might be detrimental to him, so he sent Tan Lun to Zhejiang to control the situation.
This shows that the cleaners and Yuwang do not completely agree on the views of the Yan Party. King Yu is not used to Yan Dang like a son who sees the cook invited by his father to mix sand into the pot, he wants to replace the cook, but he doesn't want to break the pot because he still needs to eat.
The Qinglius, on the other hand, want to be cooks, and it doesn't matter to them whose pot they fry in.
By understanding the difference in attitudes between Yuwang and Hu Zongxian, we can understand the causes of the national crisis. The policy of changing rice to mulberry was not implemented smoothly, and the imperial court also owed a large amount of debt for disaster relief.
Zhejiang's officialdom has been hit like never before in this immortal fight, and it's entirely their own fault. Emperor Jiajing wanted to solve the financial crisis by confiscating the silver taels from the corruption of the strict party in Zhejiang, but he did not want the case to be too widespread.
The reasons for this are subtle and complex. First of all, Jiajing himself is inextricably linked to the corruption case in Zhejiang, and a thorough investigation of the case would damage his reputation; Secondly, the Ming Empire is in danger, and the power of the Yan Party is strong, if the case involves the cabinet, the political balance of the Ming Dynasty will collapse, and the state apparatus will not be able to function normally.
Jiajing's psychology is a life-saving medicine for the strict party and the celebrant supervisors, who hope to prevent the impact of the corruption case in Zhejiang from expanding. Even the Qingliu people hoped that the action to overthrow the Yan Party would not be too wide-ranging, so as not to fail.
However, Hai Jui disagrees with this view, and he is determined to get the case to the end. Some people think that Hai Jui is too stubborn, but in fact, he is one of the few people who can see through the big picture.
His actions were not hasty, but deliberate. His convictions did not allow him to compromise, and the evil deeds of the Yan Party had reached the point where they needed to be exposed.
If you don't point it out now, it will be difficult to have a chance to track it down in the future.
Hai Rui is the only one in the Ming Empire who dares to stick to his principles, and if he compromises at this time, there will be no words in the future. Others did not dare to touch the sensitive place of the celebrant (Jiajing) out of fear.
Everyone has their own purpose and plan, just as Jiajing said, "each performs his own duties, each keeps his own way, each has his own plan, and each has his own plan." The complexity of the situation can be described as an undercurrent, and it is not easy to maintain the stable operation of the empire.
