It turns out that the allusion of "Xu Jie's villain, never used" in history is real, and it is engraved on this Wuyi pillar. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Every day Xu Jie's work in Wuyimi, he will see these eight words on the pillar.

In other words, how big Xu Jie's experience is.

According to Zhu Ping'an's modern history, these eight characters were engraved by Emperor Jiajing in the ninth year of Jiajing, when Emperor Jiajing was 23 years old and ascended the throne for nine years; This year, Xu Jie was 28 years old and had been admitted to the Jinshi for seven years.

Speaking of these eight words, we have to explain a famous event in the history of the dynasty - the "Great Ritual Controversy".

The "Great Etiquette Dispute" was a matter when Emperor Jiajing first ascended the throne.

In fact, Emperor Jiajing originally had no chance to be the emperor, and it was his cousin who became the emperor before Emperor Jiajing ascended the throne, the famous Zhengde Emperor Ming Wuzong Zhu Houzhao in history.

Emperor Zhengde is a wonderful flower in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

On the one hand, Emperor Zhengde was wise and martial, resolute and decisive in handling national affairs, and wise and decisive in reviewing the chapters. In a snap of his fingers, he destroyed the rebellion of the great eunuch Liu Jin, the king of Anhua, and the rebellion of the king of Ning, and often provided disaster relief and exemption, and personally led the troops of the little prince of Dabai Mongolia, and achieved a great victory in Yingzhou and defeated the Tatar army, the key is that in the battle of Yingzhou, the Zhengde Emperor who was the emperor was also down-to-earth with the soldiers to eat and live, and personally led the horse to cut melons and vegetables, rushed into the enemy formation and killed an enemy, which suddenly boosted morale and defeated the enemy.

But on the other hand, Emperor Zhengde was absurd, grotesque, and unscrupulous, and was a well-known faint king. Build a leopard house, hide countless girls, and have fun day and night; Playing war, I like to give myself an official, and I like to give myself a mighty general, I don't know if Emperor Jiajing likes to give himself a Taoist title, whether he learned it from his cousin. And it is said that Emperor Zhengde often ignores national politics, and takes Jinyiwei out of the palace to look for flowers and ask Liu, regardless of whether the other party has a husband or not, as long as he takes a fancy to it, he will let people rush to the palace, and the people around the capital are full of complaints.

Such a wonderful emperor finally played himself to death.

However, your Emperor Zhengde closed his eyes and left, but he left a mess for the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, and the key thing is that he has no heirs.

What to do?

The country cannot be without a king for a day, who will inherit the throne.

So, Emperor Jiajing's opportunity came.

At that time, Yang Tinghe, the minister of Gu Ming, and others checked the emperor's genealogy, and discussed letting Xianzong's grandson, Xiaozong's nephew, Wuzong's cousin, and the second son of Xingxian Wang Zhu Youqi, Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, inherit the unification, and the reason why he was the second son was because the eldest son had died a long time ago.

Originally, things were simple, but as soon as they fell into the royal family, it was not simple.

This is a feudal society, the way of Confucius and Mencius Confucianism ruled the feudal society, especially the royal family, according to the theory of Confucius, Confucius admired the Zhou rites, and the core of the Zhou rites is the primogeniture inheritance system, that is to say, the royal inheritance pays attention to the bloodline. Since you Emperor Jiajing want to be the emperor, you have to have a direct blood relationship with the previous emperor. Moreover, Confucianism stipulates that small sects should be dominated by large sects when they succeed major sects.

Therefore, Yang Tinghe and others believed that Emperor Jiajing Zhu Houxi had to be succeeded to Emperor Zhengde's father and Emperor Jiajing's cousin as his son, so that there would be a direct blood relationship, so that Emperor Jiajing would inherit the throne.

So, when Yang Ting and them welcomed Emperor Jiajing into Beijing to inherit the throne, they held a ceremony outside the capital to inherit and seal the crown prince, so that Emperor Jiajing entered the capital as the son of filial piety and the crown prince of the dynasty and inherited the throne.

But

Emperor Jiajing didn't do it.

Don't look at Emperor Jiajing when he was only fifteen years old, but he was a genius, and a proud genius.

You want me to pass on to my uncle?

Don't let me recognize my biological parents, let me put up with my uncle as my father?!

What the hell, even my father and mother can't recognize it. Am I the kind of person who is not filial?! Won't you be poked in the back in the future!

Is it tolerable or unbearable!

"The edict is for me to be the emperor, not the prince. I don't obey the order. The fifteen-year-old Emperor Jiajing was at the gate of the city and resolutely disagreed.

Emperor Jiajing does not obey, but the country cannot be without a king for a day. So, Yang Tinghe and others backed down and let Emperor Jiajing ascend the throne first to inherit the throne.

After ascending the throne, Emperor Jiajing wanted to worship his deceased father, Xingxian King Zhu Youhang. As a result, Yang Tinghe and others took out the way of Confucius and Mencius to oppose and resolutely oppose it. Emperor Jiajing thought that if you didn't let me be my father, I would go home with my mother, but the emperor didn't do it.

So, Yang Tinghe and others backed down again. However, Yang Tinghe still did one thing, you recognize your father and mother, and you can make your father and mother the emperor, but you can't be called "emperor", your emperor must be your uncle Xiaozong.

Emperor Jiajing was hindered by the fact that he had just ascended the throne and the throne was unstable, so he reluctantly agreed to call his father "Emperor Xingxian" and his mother "Empress Dowager of Xingguo".

In the third year of Jiajing, the throne of Emperor Jiajing was stable, and the word "emperor" of his biological parents was raised, Yang Tinghe finally dismissed the official, and all the dead officials of all ministries played against Emperor Jiajing, and more than 200 ministers went to the palace Zuoshunmen to petition, and the reason for their opposition was the way of Confucius and Mencius.

Of course, Emperor Jiajing's throne was stabilized, so naturally he would not be polite, more than 100 people were arrested and imprisoned by Emperor Jiajing's order, and the fourth rank and above were seized, and the fifth rank and below were beaten with court rods, and this time eighteen people were killed.

Therefore, due to the Great Rites Discussion incident, Emperor Jiajing had a great opinion on Confucianism, what is the primogeniture inheritance system, what small sect should be the successor to the big sect, and the main sect should be the main one, so Emperor Jiajing has a great opinion on Confucius, the founder of Confucianism.

In the ninth year of Jiajing, the young and vigorous 23-year-old Emperor Jiajing mentioned in the cabinet that he wanted to remove Confucius's royal name, and to lower Confucius's sacrificial standards, destroy statues, use wooden tablets, and so on.

This is Confucius, the first saint Confucius, in the hearts of readers, Confucius is a god-like existence, the emperors of the past dynasties in order to show their respect for Confucius, are constantly chasing Confucius, you want to cut the king and cut the sacrificial specifications!

Although the officials were opposed in their hearts, they were frightened by Emperor Jiajing, and the officials who opposed Emperor Jiajing were killed by Zuo Shunmen, and they were afraid of Zhang Xuan, the first assistant of the cabinet, and dared not speak out.

However, the 28-year-old Xu Jie, who was also young and vigorous, stood up, went to Emperor Jiajing, resolutely opposed it, and said no to Emperor Jiajing.

Emperor Jiajing asked Zhang Xuan to deal with it, Zhang Xuan was angry and taught Xu Jie, and Xu Jie argued with reason. Zhang Xuan angrily scolded Xu Jie and said, do you want to betray Lao Tzu. Xu Jie scoffed, betrayal is based on attachment, when did I, Xu Jie, attach myself to you?! Then, Xu Jie wrote another letter and resolutely opposed it.

After looking at Xu Jie's slightness, the young and vigorous Emperor Jiajing was angry, are you still energetic.

Okay, do you think I can't be a faint king, I can't fall behind the notorious reputation of not being able to accept the advice of the people below, and I can't put you in prison.

Don't think I can't help it.

I can't put you in prison, so in another way, I'll demote you to a place where birds don't, be a petty official in charge of the prison, and go to the prison as a companion.

So, he demoted Xu Jie to Yanping Mansion, Fujian, as a magistrate in charge of prison.

In this way, Emperor Jiajing's anger has not subsided, and after throwing down the derogatory decree, he ran to the Wuyi Hall angrily, and carved the words "Xu Jie's villain, never use" on the pillar with anger, reminding himself that Xu Jie's thing is a villain, and I will never be able to reuse him.
