Yan Shifan was the son of the treacherous minister Yan Song of the Ming Dynasty, and he was in the East Building. He was a great genius of during the Jiajing period. Yan Shifan was born in the family of high-ranking officials, so he never participated in the imperial examination at all. He directly relied on his father as the first assistant, entered the Imperial College to study, and then became an official directly. The second generation of officials is really good. Yan Shifan is not at all similar to his father's appearance. Yan Song is a living traitor, tall, but extremely thin, with treacherous expressions in his eyebrows. Yan Shifan is a short winter melon. The historical description is very vivid, that is, he has a short neck and fat body, and he is also a cyclops, but because he is very cunning and clever, and he is familiar with historical classics, he is very good at thinking about other people. Mind, especially the Emperor Jiajing who loves Taoism. Yan Shifan was called the number one ghost talent in the Jiajing period.
Yan Shifan
Yan Song has always served as the first assistant under the Jiajing Emperor, but because of his age, he is gradually unable to do so, so many things need Yan Shifan's help. Yan Song often had to accompany the emperor and couldn't deal with government affairs, so he told his subordinates that if he encountered something, he could ask Yan Shifan for a ruling. This shows Yan Shifan's talent. Emperor Jiajing particularly liked Qingci, and the Qingci presented by Yan Song were all made by Yan Shifan. It can be said that Yan Song, the "President of Qingci", was the result of Yan Shifan's efforts.
Yan Song
Jiajing loves Taoism , indulges in verse, and simply threw the government affairs to the prime minister, and the Yan family began to gain power and the name of Yan Shifan ghosts began to manifest. He has a high cultural background and is familiar with the bureaucratic system of the Ming Dynasty. He has a deep understanding of the officials in office. He can even remember the name of the Qipin Zhizhi official. That's it. The father and son began to control the promotion of officials in the central government and other decisions. right. In fact, these matters are mainly handled by Yan Shifan. He sets prices on all officials, regards money as fate, and does not care about word of mouth or anything. If you have money, you can do it. Yan Shifan is so simple and rude to accumulate wealth, and it can even be said that the country is rich.
Yan Shifan is greedy and greedy. As long as officials from all over the country enter Beijing to report, they must all go to Yanfu to give gifts. Otherwise, they will have to wear small shoes. It can be seen that Yan Shifan's arrogance, and even often said to others, even the son of the emperor must give me gifts, who dares not give it!
It is a pity that Yan Shifan's talents weren't used in the right place. Instead, they were used to accumulate money. The act of corrupting the law was well known at the time, but due to the suppression of Yan Ge, many people did not dare to resist. In 1564, Yan Shifan was impeached by Yu Shi because of Yan Song's loss, and was directly arrested and imprisoned by Jiajing.
After Yan Shifan was imprisoned, he fought his wits with the court officials. Yushi Lin Run was undecided about the conviction of Yan Shifan, but Yan Shifan instructed people to spread news outside, saying that the imprisonment was for Yang Jisheng and Shen Lian. Yan Shifan's actions. The Sanfa Division originally wanted to use this as the headline evidence, but Xujie saw through Yan Shifan’s cleverness, because it was not him Yan Shifan who convicted Yang Jisheng and Shen Lian, but Emperor Jiajing, so if the evidence were to be submitted in this way , Yan Shifan is likely to be exonerated in the end. So Xu Jie changed this charge, one of which was colluding with the Japanese pirates. The second is colluding with thieves, and the third is committed. Therefore, Emperor Jiajing directly gifted Yan Shifan to death.
