Ming Shenzong Harry is a monarch-minister relationship. When Ming Shenzong succeeded to the throne, it was already 1572. By this time, Harry was old. I have been a famous official all my life, but I am still clean in my later years, which is incompatible with the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty. During Zhang Fuzheng's stay, he wanted to appoint Hai Rui and ordered a tour of Hai Rui as suggested. The censor visited the mountain where Harry lived, and Harry killed a chicken to entertain the censor. At that time, Harry's house was desolate and shabby, and the censor sighed and left. Zhang didn't appoint Harry because he was afraid of being rigid.
After Zhang's death, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty was still corrupt and corrupt officials were rampant. Ming Shenzong hopes to use Harry's incorruptibility to suppress the official atmosphere, so he re-entrusts Harry with his previous posts: assistant minister of Nanjing official department and right censor of Nanjing. By this time, Harry was 72 years old, and Shang He demanded that those corrupt officials be severely punished. Harry put forward this suggestion again, which frightened many officials at that time and made them quite afraid of Harry. So many corrupt officials went to Ming Shenzong many times to slander Harry, and Harry resigned many times, but Ming Shenzong never agreed to Harry's resignation. In 587, Harry died of illness, and served as the right assistant minister of Nanjing official department and the suggestion of Nanjing Youdu.
The relationship between Ming Shenzong Harry's monarch and his ministers did not last long. The fundamental reason why Ming Shenzong values Harry so much is that Harry has a reputation of incorruptibility. Ming Shenzong hoped to suppress the filthy atmosphere of officialdom at that time through Harry's integrity.
Jiajing and Hairui
Harry wrote a letter challenging the prestige of Emperor Jiajing, bluntly pointing out the emperor's mistakes and even satirizing Emperor Jiajing. Very bold, but Emperor Jiajing didn't kill him, which shows his superb ability.
Emperor Jiajing was also a man of principle. If you say it, I will kill you. However, in February of Jiajing's forty-five years, Hairui, a six-product official and minister of household affairs, slapped Jiajing and wrote a letter insulting the emperor. If this is about other emperors, forget it. However, Emperor Jiajing was different. According to his temper, this is awesome! Harry and his accomplices must be killed. People and Harry's relatives and friends are sweating for him. However, an accident happened. Although the emperor was angry, he didn't kill Harry.
There are roughly three reasons why Jia Jing didn't kill Harry. First, Harry's reputation. Although he is a small official, he has a reputation that is deeply loved by the people. Its officials are honest and clean, helping the people. It is called "sea and the sky" and has won people's admiration and love. If you kill Harry, the world will shake. Second, Emperor Jiajing appreciated Hai Rui so that he could continue to punish corrupt officials, thus making the society peaceful. Therefore, before Jiajing died, he wrote a letter to Yu Wang, including the content about Harry. Tell him that Harry is kind, that saints can have him, and leave Harry to Yu Wang, maybe in the future. He also called Harry a national weapon. Third, Jiajing should maintain his image. Jiajing believes that killing Harry can be free, but releasing Harry can leave the world with an adjustable and generous image. Therefore, Jiajing pondered repeatedly to keep Harry alive.
It can be seen that Harry is death-oriented, not afraid of powerful people, and that Emperor Jiajing is reasonable and intelligent. Harry and Emperor Jiajing are all talents in the whole country.
