He sendsChildren go abroad, and the ban on deathbed: it can't serve China. A daughter is notorious.
In the period of change in China's modern history, from the late Qing Dynasty to the first time, we have experienced great changes that have not been seen in thousands of years. In this process, there has been the shame of the Chinese being discriminated against, the sorrow of dedicating the wealth of China to the great powers, and at the same time, there have been some people who have struggled for national rejuvenation, but have fallen into confusion and mistakes.
What we are going to talk about today is such a typical figure - Aixin Jueluo Shanqi, who once stood up as a hot-blooded young man, shouted loudly for the constitution, and actively promoted the Xinhua reform.
However, this once hot-blooded young man eventually became a sinner for the country, and his daughter pushed the Chinese nation into the abyss. This person is the well-known "Prince Su".
His family history has nothing to do with reform, and his ancestor, Prince Su Haoge, was the eldest son of Huang Taiji and most likely became the first emperor of the Qing Dynasty. However, due to various reasons, he did not succeed, but he became one of the eight iron hat kings because of his identity and contributions.
Therefore, the title of Prince Su continued to this day until Shanqi's father took over. Since his father was a prince, Shanqi was named a second-class general of Zhenguo at a very early age and joined the ranks of the princes.
As he grew older, he was awarded the position of first-class guard at the age of 23 with the gifts of his ancestors, and began to study politics at the emperor's side.
The original copy focused on describing a person's upbringing and his successes at a certain time, but highlighted his failures. The rewritten copy focuses on the extensive experiences he gained in his early life and his confidence in taking over the throne after his father's death, but it also hints at his failures.
The core idea of the new copy has not changed, still describing a person's upbringing and his successes at a certain time, but emphasizing his failures.
During the negotiations, he witnessed the ** behavior of Li Hongzhang and Prince Qing, and felt extremely humiliated and contemptible. In particular, the signing of the Treaty of Xinchou forced his palace to be relocated to the embassy district, all of which deeply stung the self-confident prince.
In order to erase this painful memory, he made many significant changes. Unlike other Qing aristocrats, who were prone to indulging in femininity and alcohol when they encountered setbacks, he began to work hard.
When he was the chief supervisor of the Chongwenmen Taxation Yamen, he resolutely forbade officials to bully others by taking advantage of their power, and strictly forbade forced tax increases, and everything had to be handled in accordance with the regulations. He also severely punished bribery and embezzlement of taxes.
He became famous in the capital, and the majority of merchants praised him for his justice, but there were also many ** who accused him of frivolity and joy.
In his position as Managing Minister of the General Directorate of Industry and Patrol and Commander of the Infantry, Prince Su demonstrated his innovative spirit. He not only installed the first batch of ** in the royal palace ** Yamen of the Beijing Division, introduced Western carriages, but also actively advocated the establishment of the Higher Patrol Police Academy, becoming an innovative representative among the aristocracy.
In 1905, he was promoted to the rank of Scholar of the Imperial Academy, demonstrating strong political ideals. In the early days of his tenure, he went to Inner and Outer Mongolia to conduct in-depth research, pay attention to the development of people's livelihood and animal husbandry, and at the same time pay attention to the construction of industry, railways and water conservancy, accumulating a large amount of first-hand information.
He has written many times, put forward useful suggestions, and has deep thoughts on the development of the world and long-term development.
In 1907, he began to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so he built the first public toilets in the Jingshi Experimental Field, implemented public management, set up fire brigades and police stations, and set up patrol cabinets in major neighborhoods.
In addition, the Ministry of Civil Affairs has begun to establish a household registration system and conduct preliminary population statistics. Following the example of the Japanese Academy, the "Nobility School" was established in Beijing to recruit children from wealthy families in Beijing to receive formal modern school education, and the funds were allocated by the state.
With the rise of his status, he began to pay attention to the navy again, and he once wrote to Zaifeng, proposing to prepare for the foundation of the navy, calling on those in power to pay attention to army building, and the result was adopted.
What's even more legendary is that in the process of preparing for the constitution later, the regent always dragged his feet and wanted to avoid the request for the constitution in advance. Ignoring the opinions of the higher-level leaders, Shanqi took the initiative to approach the people of the ** regiment and expressed to them that he supported the early constitution.
Moreover, he was in frequent contact with constitutionalist figures, maintained a delicate relationship with the revolutionaries, and even helped the imprisoned Wang Jingwei, Huang Fusheng and Luo Shixun to love them in every possible way, and contributed to the escape of the death penalty for these three people.
Prince Su became a representative of the constitutionalists for a time, and his self-confidence and progressive ideas made people mistakenly think that he was a representative of advanced cognition. However, the irony is that after losing his power and princehood, this prince gradually gave way to his attachment to power and officialdom, and became a sinner of the historical nation.
His reaction to the Xinhai Revolution, from the initial persuasion of everyone to be wary of Yuan Shikai, to the final choice to follow the Japanese and leave, bent on using the power of the Japanese to restore, all revealed his tragedy and helplessness.
His life was full of contradictions and controversies, the first half of his life was a struggle for civilization and progress, and the second half of his life was discredited by wrong beliefs and choices. He once bowed to the Japanese, and gave his young daughter to a Japanese spy, who later planned the Shanghai 128 Incident that shocked China and the rest of the world.
He also committed many crimes during the Anti-Japanese War, and his hands were stained with blood. Although he devoted his whole life to restoration, he ended up happy and did not see the possibility of restoration before he died.
His will was for the children not to return to China to serve. His story reveals the madness and chaos of that era, an inadaptation to the new era, and a manifestation of confusion about the future.
The contrast between the first half of his life and the second half of his life makes us think: what determines a person's fate? Is it class, creed, or fate?
