1、 Gao Qiyu was the target of the successor training for Prime Minister Shen Shixing. During his successful career, he was reported by political enemies. The evidence of his crime was that he had presided over the exam question "Shun also ordered Yu" at the Yingtian Prefecture Township Examination a few years ago, which was to persuade Zhang Juzheng to advance. This attack was both insidious and vicious, as it hit the heart of the emperor's psyche.
2、 Being able to come up with such a tricky perspective, this person is definitely a genius, but unfortunately most of these clever minds are used in internal struggles.
3、 Of course, Emperor Wanli was not foolish either. He connected various signs and gradually understood the true purpose of these accusations and impeachments. Why did this group of "royalists" remain silent when Gao Qiyu proposed to persuade them to move forward, and now that Zhang Juzheng has fallen, they still have valid arguments? It can be seen that they also have their own 'yin'.
4、 Although some members of the attacking party were eventually demoted, Gao Qiyu was also accused of "making a mistake" and stripped of his civil servant status and ancestral decree previously bestowed upon him.
5、 The outcome of both sides losing in the internal struggle among civil servants is the most favorable for the emperor, as it is the most powerful warning and deterrent. Wanli was clear about this, but unfortunately his descendant Emperor Chongzhen placed all his treasures under the control of the Donglin Party.
