How do you evaluate Zhang Tingyu? Is this life a success or a failure?

Mondo History Updated on 2024-02-24

Zhang Tingyu was extremely outstanding in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and was the only Han person in the entire Manchu Dynasty who was worthy of enjoying the Taimiao, and the "Epitaph of Zhang Gongtingyu in Tongcheng" said, "Fifty years of the Dynasty, twenty-seven years of the long word forest, twenty-four years of the chief writer, all military affairs, according to the order of the business."

Zhang Tingyu (1672 A.D. - 1755 A.D.), the word "Hengchen", the number "Yan Zhai", he explained his number like this, "Chenghuai Garden Language", "In the past, Wen Duangong (Zhang Ying) prayed for a dream in Luxian Cave. "Cheng Huai's Master's Own Chronology", vol. 2. moved to a new room, and the family was burdened. The jade feels auspicious, because it is called 'Yan Zhai'".

Zhang Tingyu's talent is extremely outstanding, and he has achieved the ultimate in Han people as ministers, and he is the only one among the Han people who deserves to enjoy the temple. Zhang Tingyu was rectified by Emperor Qianlong in his later years, and was once revoked from the qualification to enjoy the Taimiao. Emperor Qianlong later issued an order to restore Zhang Tingyu's deserving Taimiao, at this time Zhang Tingyu had passed away, but it was enough to comfort his soul in the sky. Zhang Tingyu has served the imperial court all his life, and he still lived up to his wishes.

Zhang Tingyu is an official, which can be called the "learning model" of feudalism. This is because Zhang Tingyu has several qualities as an official, but the most important quality is "do more things and talk less".

Throughout the ages, leaders like to use a type of person, that is, people who uphold the principle of "kowtowing more and talking less". "Kowtowing more" is not enough, just being able to pat yourself on the back and not doing things, you will also mislead the country and the people. For example, Gao Yu is a person who can only "kowtow more" and has no actual talent. Jingkang's shame, and I don't see Gao Yu, the commander of thousands of troops, have any military contributions to resist the enemy's invasion, so it can be seen that it is a standard wine bag and rice bag, and he will only play with the emperor's master.

Yongzheng's evaluation of him: "Peaceful and upright, excellent in learning, self-simple in the maintenance of the machine, slacking off at night, and relying on his qualifications." Yongzheng also praised him for his "pure and sincere service" and called him "the first propagandist among the ministers". In the last years of Yongzheng, Zhang Tingyu went home to save his relatives, and the emperor wrote to him: "In the eleven years since I ascended the throne, among the close relatives and ministers in the court, I have never separated from you for a day. I am a close friend with you. Now more than a month has passed, and I can't help but miss it every time. "When Emperor Yongzheng was dying, he ordered him to be ministers with Ortai.

In the Qianlong Dynasty, the elders of the two dynasties were valued by the imperial court, and Qianlong said that he "did not vomit or vomit, both philosophical and clear." In the forty-fourth year of Qianlong (1779), Emperor Qianlong commented on his merits in the "Nostalgic Poems", and Zhang Tingyu was listed as one of the five cabinet ministers. The inheritor has virtue, and the master is famous. If you don't vomit, you are both philosophical and clear. The letter is the same, and ten thousand words are engraved. The record of the ancestors of the good emperor can be sincere. In this way, we will be favored, and we will be worthy of our lives. and the administration of the governing, relying on the original is not light. There are praises from time to time, and the Zhen of the country is resting! Hang the car back to his hometown, begging for glory. Sinai doesn't believe me, this thought should be cute? Zang Wuzhong took precautions and asked Jun Shengsu to comment. The thin punishment is solid, in order to show the chastity of the ministers. After the original and the food, the legacy is changed or more? Seek to enjoy the other too much, but still enjoy my essence. Si people and know, should still feel Jiujing.

The History of the Qing Dynasty says: At the beginning of Sejong's accession to the throne, he was promoted to the office of Ertai and the governor of Lang. Tingyu has been in the second rite department, and he is directly called the decree, and he will worship in a few years. The Military Aircraft Department was initially established, and the job system was determined by Tingyu. Later, Ortai sent it to Xiangqi. Shu Zheng Xiu, Yu Nei Yi'an, so he was bequeathed, Yu Da Hao, can be said to be extremely heavy. Gu Yi has been in the government for a long time, and the children of the two families are gradually competing for power, corners, and Gaozong Candle is a few times cute, so as not to make the disaster of the party, not the luck of the two ministers?

In addition to "kowtowing more", you must also be able to "do things". A typical example of this is Heshen. But He Shen was too greedy, not only greedy for money, but also controlled the government and persuaded Emperor Qianlong not to pass on the throne to Jiaqing, which naturally aroused Emperor Jiaqing's hatred. Sure enough, as soon as Emperor Qianlong died, Emperor Jiaqing settled accounts with He Shenqiu. This is an example of "doing more", but "talking more".

The reason why Zhang Tingyu is smarter than Gao Yu and He Shen, and he has always been an officialdom tumbler with almost no political stains, is because he can "kowtow more" and "do more things and talk less". Zhang Tingyu's motto is: everything is better than a silence.

Zhang Tingyu is still an honest and honest **, which is rare among many feudal officials. Emperor Yongzheng is very strict in his anti-corruption efforts, and he has very high requirements for government affairs, who else will he use if he doesn't use someone like Zhang Tingyu?
