Why did the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty have so much power?

Wei Zhongxian, the boss of the eunuch party, is the eunuch in charge of the seal of the emperor, and the emperor only does carpenter work in the harem, and only listens to Wei Zhongxian's reports and instructions on major court affairs, and then cultivates party henchmen, and the power is getting bigger and bigger.

Because they have a lot of special features in life, they are close to the emperor, and they will naturally have great power

The eunuchs were eunuchs, and the eunuchs had power in the Ming Dynasty, mainly because they relied on living with the emperor's relatives every day to gain the power to trust their descendants.

No matter how powerful it is, it is to work for the emperor, so whether the power is big or not should be the emperor's final say, and the emperor also hopes so.

Because the Ming Dynasty gave the eunuchs great power from the beginning without restricting them.

Because the emperor abolished the prime minister system at that time, it can be said that there were so many powers at that time.

As for the administration, nominally the commercial tax was collected during the reign of Donglin in the third year of the Apocalypse, and all kinds of miscellaneous levy plans were also done in the early years of the Apocalypse, and the increase during the eunuch period was all Tianfu.

Because there were many powerful eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty, Wang Zhen, Wang Zhi, Liu Jin, Wei Zhongxian, etc. were all above 10,000 people under one person. There is also the establishment of the East Factory in the Ming Dynasty, which has great power and is unique in all dynasties. In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the post of prime minister, so that the power was concentrated in the imperial power, and the emperor would give part of the power to the eunuchs around him, so that the eunuchs had so much power that they could do anything wrong.

This person is the famous Zhang Juzheng, because he became the position of the first assistant scholar, and he truly controlled the power of the imperial court, and no one could touch him, and after his death, the imperial court resumed its original rule.

Wang Zhi, Wang Zhi is a eunuch in the Chenghua period, he is favored by Ming Xianzong with his military exploits, Wang Zhi has been sitting in Liaodong, and over time he was alienated by Ming Xianzong, and was finally squeezed out by the eunuchs of Dongchang and relegated to Nanjing, and then disappeared in history, his fate should be regarded as the best.

Wang Zhi is strictly a positive character, and he can be called Huo Quai, who is invincible and invincible. Once denounced, the court lost the battle. Looking closely at the history books, it is clear that it is depreciating and praised, probably because of the political correctness of the scholars.
