History live broadcast: My audience is the ancestors

My charming but short-lived ancestor: that is to say, Zhu Houcong and Zhu Yijun spent more time together than Yongle and Renxuan combined!

Wuduyi: Who says it’s not the case? It would be nice if their life spans were divided among the previous generations of monarchs.

Who in the clouds sent me a brocade book: I totally agree! This is a typical example of a good person who will not live long but will be left behind for thousands of years!

I can’t sleep at night (Guan): Hahahahahaha, what a pity, what a pity

Su Yue looked at them and said, "Well, now let's take a look at the life of Zhu Yijun, the first otaku in the Ming Dynasty!"

朱翊钧（1563年9月4日—1620年8月18日），自称禹斋，庙号“神宗”。

The third son of Emperor Muzong Zhu Zaijing of the Ming Dynasty, his mother was the imperial concubine Li.

The thirteenth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, with the reign name Wanli, reigned for forty-eight years and was the longest reigning emperor in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yijun was established as the prince at the age of 6 and ascended the throne in June of the sixth year of Longqing (1572).

Due to political corruption, financial depletion and crises in the Ming Dynasty, the government mainly relied on Zhang Juzheng, a bachelor in the cabinet.

In terms of internal affairs, he implemented the examination method, eliminated redundant officials and redundant personnel in government agencies, reformed the tax and service system, and implemented the one-whip method; in the military, he strengthened military preparations and reorganized the army, and reused the famous anti-Japanese general Qi Jiguang as prime minister to train troops in the three towns of Ji, Chang, and Bao.

After Zhu Yijun took office, he worked hard to govern, lived frugally, and had the demeanor of a diligent and wise king, creating a "Wanli ZTE" situation.

Later, he became tired of government affairs due to the dispute over the country's foundation and other issues, and has not been in court since then.

In the first month of the forty-fourth year of Wanli (1616), the Hou Jin regime was established, and in the forty-sixth year of Wanli (1618), Fushun was captured, provoking a war between the Later Jin and the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yijun took the lead in the attack, and the Ming army was defeated miserably in Sarhu (now the south bank of the Donghun River in Fushun, Liaoning Province) the following year. After that, the Ming Dynasty was on the defensive against Hou Jin and was unable to attack.

In the forty-eighth year of Wanli (1620), Zhu Yijun died of illness and was buried in Dingling.

In the first ten years after he succeeded to the throne, Zhu Yijun worked hard to achieve unprecedented economic prosperity in the Ming Dynasty, and promoted the emergence of capitalism in the Jiangnan region;
In the intervening ten years, he changed from diligence to laziness, coupled with his morbid mentality of indulging in wine, sex, and wealth. Instead of reviving the Ming Dynasty, it pushed the Ming Dynasty into despair.

Later generations commented on Zhu Yijun that "the death of Ming Dynasty was actually caused by Shenzong."

But Zhu Yijun was not without merit. With the assistance of key courtiers, the Ming Dynasty did not show obvious decline, and the three large-scale battles conducted during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty also achieved good results.

My charming but short-lived ancestor: Zhu Yijun was so good in the first half of his life, but it was a pity that the middle path collapsed.
I can't sleep at night (Guan): Well, aren't Zhu Yijun and Zhang Juzheng very good? Why was the corpse whipped in the end?
Wuduyi: Now you have to see what Zhang Juzheng did.
Who in the clouds sent a brocade book:? ? ? What did he do?
Wuduyu: Well, it’s better than Li Chengqian’s time, but not much better.
I send my longing to the bright moon: What’s more, there is a national dispute, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk

Su Yue looked at the comment area and said, "You don't know what Zhang Juzheng did? How is that possible?"

Zhang Juzheng (May 1525, 5 - July 26, 1582), whose courtesy name was Shuda, whose nickname was Taiyue, and whose childhood name was Zhang Baigui, was a member of the Huguang Jingzhou Guard (now JZ City, HUB Province).

He was born in Jiangling County (now JZ City, HUB Province), so he was called "Zhang Jiangling".

A politician, reformer and chief minister of the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty, he assisted Ming Shenzong Zhu Yijun in carrying out the "Wanli New Deal", known in history as the "Zhang Juzheng Reform". He became a Jinshi in the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing (1547).

In the first year of Longqing (1567), he served as the left minister of the Ministry of official affairs and the bachelor of Dongge. Later, he moved to the second assistant of the cabinet, and became the minister of the Ministry of official affairs and the bachelor of Jianjidian.

In the sixth year of Longqing (1572), Dai Gaogong was the chief assistant of the cabinet and a bachelor of Jinzhong Jidian. All military and political affairs were presided over by Zhang Juzheng. He served as the chief assistant of the cabinet for ten years and implemented a series of reform measures.

In terms of finance, the "one whip method" was implemented to clean up the land, including taxes and labor, all paid in silver. "Taicang millet can be used for ten years, and the Zhou temple has accumulated more than four million yuan";
Militaryly, Qi Jiguang, Li Chengliang and other famous generals were appointed to the north of the town, and Ling Yunyi, Yin Zhengmao and others were used to quell the southwest rebellion;
In the administration of officials, a comprehensive examination of names and facts is implemented, and officials at all levels are evaluated using the "examination method". "Although they are thousands of miles away, they will be implemented day and night", and the political system is awe-inspiring.

He died of illness in June of the tenth year of Wanli (1582) at the age of fifty-eight. He was given to Shangzhu Kingdom and given the posthumous title Wenzhong (both were later deprived).

The only civil servant in the Ming Dynasty who was awarded the title of Taifu or Taishi during his lifetime.

After his death, his family was confiscated by Ming Shenzong, and his reputation was restored in the second year of Tianqi of Ming Xizong (1622).

He is the author of "Zhang Taiyue Collection", "Shu Jing Direct Interpretation", "Dijian Pictures", etc.

My charming and short-lived ancestor: holding grass! That is to say, although Zhang Juzheng has some problems, he will not be whipped to death, right?
I can’t sleep at night (Guan): Who knows? After all, Tang Taizong even pushed Wei Zheng's tombstone at that time.
Wuduyi: Hahahahaha, although at that time, were you polite?

Who in the clouds sent me a brocade book: I can only say that Zhang Juzheng is suitable for governing the government, but if you talk about raising children, Zhang Juzheng is unreliable.

I send my love to the bright moon: Yes, so preaching to the prince is also a technical job

Wan Ning can’t sleep at night (Guan): If you say that, it reminds me of the prince killer Li Gang
Who in the clouds sent a brocade book: Alas, Li Gang tried to persuade every prince, but it was a pity that no one listened to him.
Wuduyi: Who says it’s not the case! But if we say that the main reason for Zhu Yijun's failure is the national dispute, right?
Yu Yusning:? ? ? What does the national dispute mean?
I can’t sleep at night: please @玥玥 this time
Su Yue saw the comment and said: "The dispute between the country and the country can only be said to be ridiculous and outrageous!"

The dispute over the foundation of the country, also known as the dispute over the foundation of the country, is the issue of the establishment of a prince by Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty. Since ancient China has always had a saying that "the prince is the foundation of the country", it is called the dispute over the foundation of the country.

At that time, there were two factions supporting the emperor's eldest son Zhu Changluo and Prince Fu Zhu Changxun (born to Concubine Zheng), respectively, competing for the position of crown prince.

According to the Ming Dynasty's principle of appointing the eldest son as the prince, most of the court ministers supported the eldest son Zhu Changluo. However, Ming Shenzong did not like the eldest son of the emperor born to Concubine Wang Gong, but doted on Concubine Zheng. He also intended to make his son Zhu Changxun, the third son of the emperor, the crown prince, but He was strongly opposed by the ministers and the Empress Dowager Cisheng.

Ming Shenzong argued with his ministers for 15 years.

It was not until the twenty-ninth year of Wanli (1601) that the emperor's eldest son Zhu Changluo was named the prince, and Zhu Changxun was named King Fu.

However, Prince Fu never left the capital to take up the post of vassal king.

It was not until the 1614nd year of Wanli () that Empress Dowager Li died of illness and public opinion was unfavorable to Concubine Zheng. King Fu left Beijing to join the vassal, and the status of Prince Zhu Changluo was thus stabilized.

At this point, after 15 years of quarreling, countless ministers were reprimanded, demoted and beaten with sticks, Ming Shenzong was physically and mentally exhausted, Zheng Guifei was unhappy, and the whole empire was not at peace, the "national war" came to an end.

Most of the bureaucrats who fought for the foundation of the country were later Donglin Party members, so it was another content of the Donglin Party struggle.

The dispute over the foundation of the country made Ming Shenzong devastated. He felt that although he was the emperor, he was eventually controlled by the ministers. He eventually broke up with the ministers, gradually lost interest in the government, and began to neglect government affairs.
