Geng Zhizhi was a famous minister in Jackie Chan, and a minister in the Kangxi Dynasty
When I was over the age of sixteen, I sat at the table at the Yamen of the Huai'an River in Anhui Province, wearing a thick dress, and although I was already sick, I still insisted on reading. At that time, February in Jiangnan had not yet ushered in spring, and everything was still gloomy and cold.
There was always a mystery in my mind, and that was something I couldn't figure out. And I'm the old man.
My name is Yu Jackie Chan, the word Zhenjia, people are like mountains. Recently, I've been thinking about a question: Why can't I agree with my colleague Jin Fu on the idea of river control? We had an unpleasant incident because of this incident, and even needed the emperor to mediate.
Although we still have a good relationship in private, the problem of river control still leads to our estrangement. I heard that he is now dead, and that he is still in his river governor's palace at last.
I'm not in good health right now, and it looks like the end is coming. At the end of my life, I was reminded of the experiences of my life.
Interestingly, there was a minister in the court with the same name and surname as me, his name was Yu Chengchan, but he was older than me. The emperor and his ministers often called us big and small, and I was smaller.
I was born in Gaizhou City, Liaodong Province, which was three years old in Chongde in the Qing Dynasty, and my family was illustrious. My mother's surname is Kang. Soon after I was born, my family moved from Gaizhou to Quang Ninh North Town, because my father was a banner man, so we needed to move with the army.
Fortunately, the army that changed the guard was stationed right there.
When I was a little kid and ready to start my private school education, the world changed dramatically. The Ming Empire had collapsed, and the Qing Dynasty had successfully entered the customs from outside the customs and set its capital in the Central Plains.
I asked my father when we could go to the Central Plains. The father replied, "Son, my current mission is still here, and when the country stabilizes, we will go to the Central Plains." ”
When I was a child, I studied hard at a private school, dreaming of being able to get out of my hometown and see the outside world. When I was 11 years old, Amma received an errand to enter the customs, and our family moved to Tongzhou, not far from Jingshi.
There, for the first time, I saw the big ships and other ships transporting grain from north to south, felt the magnificence and prosperity of the Grand Canal, and also saw the busy figures of the people on the canal.
I was so impressed by the Grand Canal that I would come to the canal after school and watch the boats deliver food, medicine and other daily necessities back and forth, full of anticipation and yearning for the future.
After living in Yanqing for a few years, I moved again, this time I saw the Great Wall from the Qin Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty. Interestingly, the Great Wall was built in successive dynasties, but only during the Qing Dynasty the Great Wall was dilapidated, and the Holy Lord had no intention of repairing it.
I was puzzled by this question when I was a child, but when I became a **, a minister proposed to the emperor to repair the Great Wall. The emperor replied: "The Great Wall was built in previous dynasties to prevent the invasion of foreign peoples, but is it really useful?
Whether it was the Xiongnu, Xianbei, or later the Yuan and Qing dynasties, they all had a record of smooth invasions. Our Qing Dynasty is the Great Wall of the hearts of the Mongols and ethnic minorities, and the Manchus, Mongolians, Hui, Tibetans and Han are our people, so we don't need to repair the Great Wall.
Don't do it again. "I am deeply moved, this is the first time from Qin Shi Huang to the Qing Dynasty that a monarch has proposed not to repair the Great Wall, but to regard the human heart as the Great Wall.
Although I am a disciple of the Eight Banners and do not need to take the imperial examination, I still read the books of the saints to govern the country with reason. I, Amma, suggested that I learn some English and Chinese while reading these books.
I worked very hard to learn Chinese, a language created by the Manchurian sage Dahai and others at the behest of Taizu, who later had Kagai and others revise it to form the current new Manchu script.
The New Manchu script is circled to better distinguish the Chinese language of the dynasty from Mongolian.
When I was 20 years old, I set foot in the capital for the first time and entered the Guozijian for further study. At the end of the three-year study period, I was given my first job in my life, which was the Ministerial Pen Tips.
At this time, the Qing text that my father had asked me to study finally came into use. Although this position is not large, he is already a six-rank official, and is responsible for translating the documents into Qing or Chinese.
In this process, I have gained a lot of knowledge, and I have also understood the needs of the imperial court in terms of ability and assessment. During this period, my uncle had no children, and my father succeeded me as a son according to custom.
In the seventh year of Kangxi, because I showed a serious and diligent attitude in my work, and because I was a subordinate of the subordinate, the imperial court decided to give me some care and transferred me to Leting County in Zhili Prefecture as the magistrate.
This was the first time I had been sent abroad, and before I set out, I asked Amma for advice, and Amma told me to be as cautious as I was in Kyori when I was in a foreign country, and not to think of myself as the emperor of the soil.
Of course, I will remember Amma's teachings and dare not forget.
When I first took office, in June of that year, the entire county was hit by flooding, and people's fields and homes were severely damaged. I asked my superiors for tax relief and relief for the people, but neither the Governor nor the Governor of Yongpyeong Province agreed to my proposal.
I felt very sad. After returning to the county seat, I tearfully told the people around me: "As a magistrate, if the emperor can't know about such a serious flood, then how can he be called a parent official?"
If you are offended because of the request, even if you can't become an official, what does it matter? "So, I immediately wrote a note detailing the situation and presented it to the provincial high-level **.
After the investigation of the governor of Zhili, Gan Wenkun, he believed that the disaster was true, and reported to his superiors, and finally the emperor ordered the head of the household department to bring more than 8,000 taels of silver for disaster relief, and the field tax was reduced by three-tenths that year, and all the money and grain payable by the people who were seriously affected by the disaster were exempted.
I and the people are very happy. However, just as I was going to continue my tenure here, I received an order to leave the place I loved.
