A great man once said: "I cherish the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, and I lose my literary talents; Tang Zong and Song Zu, slightly inferior**. A generation of Tianjiao, Genghis Khan, only knows how to bend the bow and shoot the eagle. Let's go! Count the romantic figures, but also look at the present day. This is the rhetoric of *** deep insight into history. Today, let's cut through the fog and go deep into the inner world of the emperors of the ages.
Yongzheng, the third emperor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. A short reign, but a leader in reform. Although the names of Kangxi and Qianlong are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Yongzheng's contribution seems to have been ignored. His anti-corruption storm revitalized the crumbling Qing Dynasty and revitalized the economy. Yongzheng, like the miracle of history, engraves the light of reform.
Yang Guang, the "tyrant" in the historical perspective. However, the imperial examination system he pioneered was a milestone in Chinese history. broke the monopoly of the children of the family and paved the way for the poor scholars. The excavation of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, although with selfish desires, promotes cultural and commercial exchanges between the north and the south. Yang Guang's political achievements changed the times and influenced the social system after a thousand years.
Zhu Yuanzhang, a civilian legend. From a monk to a beggar, to the leader of the anti-Yuan rebel army, it is a legend in Chinese history. The abolition of the prime minister system and the promotion of the cabinet system made the Ming Dynasty more centralized. His economic policies, cultural restoration, and zero-tolerance for corruption laid the cornerstones of Chinese history.
These three emperors through the ages are intertwined with political achievements and flaws. Did Yongzheng's high-pressure reforms make the people feel breathless? Did Yang Guang's imperial examination system achieve the prosperity of the children of the common people? Is Zhu Yuanzhang's zero-tolerance policy ruthless?
1.Yongzheng reform and people's lives.
Yongzheng's reforms have brought short-term economic prosperity, but have the heavy-handed measures caused serious impacts on people's livelihoods? In the major raid case, has the lives of ordinary people been hit hard? Yongzheng's reform, is it revitalization or oppression?
2.Yang Guang's imperial examination system and social unrest.
The imperial examination system was the pinnacle of Yang Guang's work, but did it really provide a fair opportunity for the children of the common people? Did the imperial examination system bring great social turmoil at that time? We need to have a deeper understanding of what society really looked like in Yang Guang's time.
3.Zhu Yuanzhang's political wisdom and moral torture.
Zhu Yuanzhang's political wisdom led to the rise of the Ming Dynasty, but did the zero-tolerance policy make society lose its humanistic care? We need to examine Zhu Yuanzhang's trade-off between politics and morality, and whether his rule has morally withstood the judgment of history.
Through the fog of history, we discover the achievements and flaws of these three emperors through the ages. Their story is not only a portrayal of an era, but also a complex picture of human nature. History is not just a story, it is a source of inspiration and reflection. In the in-depth excavation, we see that the great achievements of historical figures and the complexity of human nature are intertwined, and this is the real profundity of history. [END].
