Chapter 16 The History of the Special Warfare Pioneer
The Ming Dynasty was a very virtuous court, Kyoto did not move south, the Son of Heaven guarded the country, and the king died. Perhaps because of the upward and downward effects, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty were also very disciplined and had a bottom line.
The Ming Dynasty has a special battle flock of chickens!
They are not afraid of being ruined, they only care about their reputation; They often stubbornly stalk their necks and the emperor for their beliefs, and if they are sceptered by the emperor, in their opinion, this is a victory to defend the "way of heaven", and they will be envied and congratulated by their teammates; They despise all knowledge except the Four Books and the Five Classics, and they despise all people except the Jinshi who have passed the imperial examination.
This group of people is the specialty of the Ming Dynasty: the civil official group.
Since Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor since he was a child, he felt that he had conquered the country by force, and he was very insecure about the military attachés, so he consciously reused the civilian official group to suppress the military attachés.
But when Lao Zhu found that he was warming up on the concubine's bed for a while in the morning, there was a civil official who was noisy in his ears, and he decisively hung the civil official up and beat him.
The civil servants refused to work under such a boss, and they went out to the court early in the morning, feeling uneasy, and panicking all day during the day, and when they went out of the yamen in the evening, they had to congratulate each other on living one more day.
Then Emperor Jianwen succeeded to the throne and began to reuse civil officials to govern the world, civil officials were like concubines who had been working for decades, and suddenly one day they were told that they had turned positive, and they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and their hearts were full of happiness and a beautiful vision for the future.
Who knows that the good days will not last long, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di drove away his nephew and became the emperor himself, this Yongle Emperor is also a scheming bitch, today he told the civil officials that he worked properly under his hands, with high wages and good benefits, and tomorrow he will set up two factories of Jinyiwei and East and West to supervise hundreds of officials and place people in the homes of civil officials, so what posture the civil officials use when they sleep in the concubine's room every day, Yongle knows it clearly, and how many perverted words the ministers scolded the emperor in private, can not be examined......
Later emperors did not have the same skill and courage as their ancestors to control the civil officials, but expressed their dissatisfaction with the civil officials in a petty way, fully interpreting the meaning of the phrase you don't let me be happy, and I won't let you be happy.
In the competition with civil officials, the descendants of the old Zhu family have accumulated rich experience in struggle, and the four very famous wonderful emperors have appeared:
Emperor Zhengde, who was born in the wrong era; Emperor Jiajing, who couldn't recognize his father; Emperor Longqing, who can only pretend to be dumb; Emperor Wanli who resolutely did not go to court.
The power framework of the Ming Dynasty is also very interesting, the cabinet restricts the emperor, the emperor restricts the factory guard, and the factory guard restricts the cabinet. When all rights are restricted, no one can do what they want, and society is more stable. Therefore, since the establishment of the cabinet and factory guards, there has been no great turmoil in the court of the Ming Dynasty.
All in all, the more than 200 years of history of the Ming Dynasty was spent in the struggle and support of the emperor and civil officials, both of whom looked at each other unpleasantly, but neither could do without the other.
Under the emperor's intentional or unintentional instigation, there were also constant party disputes among civil officials. When the reason does not make sense, there will be verbal violence within the civil officials, such as scolding the mother; When verbal violence still doesn't work, civil officials will also roll up their sleeves and commit physical violence, which is the special feature of the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty, they are more wild, more rude, and more effective than the civil officials of other dynasties!
There was also a special group of civil officials in the Ming Dynasty, and they were the superintendent of imperial history.
The supervision of the imperial history is not only under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but also can act independently without the control of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and can play the Son of Heaven alone when there is something to do. The superintendent of the imperial history is in charge of supervising hundreds of officials, inspecting counties and counties, correcting prisons, and purging court ceremonies.
However, the supervision of the imperial history was also the most idle group of officials among the hundred officials of the Ming Dynasty, because there was a group of Erwuzai who robbed them of their work, they were Jinyiwei and the East and West Factories.
You can't always be idle and have nothing to do, and it's good to brush your sense of existence if you have nothing to do, so when you know that the emperor used two more pieces of paper to go to the toilet, the supervising imperial historians are boiling, this is the harbinger of the emperor's arrogance and lasciviousness, and it must be strangled in the cradle......
The boss has such a group of younger brothers, and no one is happy, but they can't beat or scold, otherwise they will tell you that they will die for you. Therefore, in addition to drawing circles and cursing in circles, the emperor can only send the most joyful supervising imperial history to the country.
Mei Gongbo was the one who jumped very happily in front of Emperor Hongzhi, and then was sent by the emperor to Yangzhou Mansion to supervise the imperial history.
Mei Gongbo was a jinshi in Hongzhi for five years, and when he first started working, he was sent to a barren small county in Guizhou to serve as a county magistrate. At that time, I was still young, and my heart was full of enthusiasm for work, but after I took up my post, I found that the local people only knew the toast and did not know the county government.
After five years of Qingxian County Order, the local Tusi was in turmoil, and the Meixian County Order organized the people to resist, how could the little daughter-in-law resist the evil man's abuse, and after resisting for five days, she finally lost the county.
At this time, Meixian Ling should have been cut in two, fortunately he met the best tempered emperor in the history of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Hongzhi felt that although Meixian Ling lost the county, but he had courage and temperament, so he not only pardoned him, but also promoted him to be the Jingshi Inspector Imperial History.
Mei Yushi realized that it was time to show his real skills, so he gave a small advice in three days and a big advice in five days, and advised Emperor Hongzhi to want to die......
Mei Yushi is known for his uprightness and outspokenness.
In the autumn of the eleventh year of Hongzhi, someone reported that the Marquis of Shouning had illegally enclosed land and oppressed the people, Mei Yushi pointed to the nose of the Marquis of Shouning in the court and scolded, and finally the Emperor Hongzhi came forward to mediate, and the matter was over.
Mei Yushi didn't make many friends in Kyoto, after all, if you play with a friend with an unusually upright personality, it is likely that there will be a wave of loss.
In the twelfth year of Hongzhi, after only two years of supervising the imperial history of Beijing, Mei Gongbo was sent to Yangzhou Mansion and was still appointed as the superintendent of the imperial history......
The civil officials in the capital jokingly praised: Moldy Imperial History!
Although Mei Yushi is like a hedgehog, whoever touches it hurts, it is undeniable that Mei Yushi's reputation is very high, and Emperor Hongzhi also respects him very much, and once said to Empress Zhang: "The public is straight, polished for three years, and can be reused." ”
The history of the mold is also worthy of the name, just a few days after coming to Yangzhou Mansion, his mansion was burned.
Mei Yushi felt tired for the first time in his life, and felt sorry for himself for the first time......
(Chengbei specifically checked the Ming Dynasty civil official group, and they were more like a kind of faith, just like the missionaries in the West.) Also, the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty really knew how to do it, and it was common for students to fight because of their different ideas. )
