There are many details in the Ming Dynasty 1566, such as the two characters of Zhao Zhenji and Hu Zongxian. are diametrically opposed to the records in the official history, and this sense of contrast is actually a detail of this drama. The reason for this arrangement actually highlights the words of Emperor Jiajing: The clouds are in the blue sky and the water is in the bottle, some of you are in the sky, some of you are in the bottle, and you are doing different things. "The water of the Yellow River is turbid, and the water of the Yangtze River is clear, but it can irrigate the people along the river."
In the case of Zhao Zhenji in the play, Jiajing commented that he was "an old man seeking the country", and netizens jokingly called him "a non-stick pan for ten thousand years", "ten thousand flowers have passed through, and the leaves do not stick to the body" is very appropriate! However, Zhao Zhenji was influenced by Yang Ming's hard work and had a deep influence on his later administration, so Zhao Zhenji has 2 highlights in the play:
The first place: Hu Zongxian borrowed grain. Take Hu Zongxian's interests as the starting point and persuade him not to get involved! In fact, I was entrusted not to lend food, that is, I think about you, don't hurt yourself, what if you hurt yourself and you implicate me? When Hu Zongxian talked about the allocation of military rations, the cabinet had no right to intervene, this is the emperor's system, and I just allocated it, which can also be said to be military rations! Zhao Zhenji immediately realized another problem: the military rations can't be used so much! Therefore, Zhao Zhenji in the play is a delicate egoist, and as for Yangming psychology, Yanran is egoism here.
The second place: Zhao Zhenji interrogated Hai Rui. You can learn about Haigang Peak, which one is stronger in this scaring technique, there is only Haigang Peak in the world! It's interesting! Now that Hai Rui here has already played the song, he already has the heart of death. Zhao Zhenji interrogated Hai Rui and asked, "Why do you want to go to the sparse?" Hai Rui replied: "It is the duty of the minister!" Zhao Zhenji immediately said a sentence to clear himself: "What did you write in the recital?" Hai Rui replied: "Since the lord is interrogating, haven't you watched the music?" Zhao Zhenji replied: "Is the words of rebellion that courtiers can read?" "What the good guy said, I didn't read it, and what was written above is definitely not a good thing, and I won't read it! Hai Rui replied: "Since the adults haven't seen it, you can go and ask the emperor" Zhao Zhenji was probably stunned at this time, and did what he wanted, didn't he become the judge boss? Look for death!
Zhao Zhenji was angry and said, "I'm judging you", and Hai Rui replied: "The lowly recital is written for the emperor." If the emperor is willing to make it public to all the ministers, he will show it to you. The emperor does not want to make public the ministers, and I can't say anything to anyone. This sentence actually got rid of Zhao Zhenji's suspicion, let Zhao Zhenji interrogate, Jiajing is testing Zhao Zhenji, now it's okay, between coming and going, Zhao Zhenji is not suspicious. In the original book, it is said that Zhao Zhenji has a little respect for Hai Rui at this time, can he be disrespectful, he has to consider others when he is difficult to protect himself! Later, Zhao Zhenji asked who instructed you to write this recital, Hai Rui was straightforward, and the implication was that I didn't write it, just me! Meaning, what you're asking is all nonsense! Although Zhao Zhenji did not achieve Jiajing's goal, he got rid of suspicion!
But as far as the play is concerned, Zhao Zhenji's non-stick idea will be reflected as soon as Zhao Zhenji appears. But why can Zhao Zhenji still enter the cabinet, Jiajing wants to build a new cabinet balance, and Jiajing is stabilizing Xu Jie. His students are more or less a helper, but on the other hand, it's a reminder! Remind Xu Jie to think about who he is doing things for?
This Zhao Zhenji himself said that it is not wrong to act in accordance with the holy decree, not to seek merit but to seek no fault! Although it doesn't stick to the pan, this sends two signals, I only follow the will, I just want to do something honestly!
