Kangxi was defeated by the guards in chess, and ten days later, the guards died violently in the wilderness, and Kangxi left a famous saying
In the first month of 1661, Emperor Shunzhi ended his life at the age of 24.
This change came so suddenly that Shunji didn't even think about making a prince in his lifetime, after all, he and his children were still very young.
Even if Kangxi mastered the world, he would not be able to survive. So, life is fair, and people are not spared just because they have power and prestige.
Shun Qi knew that time was running out, so he had to take his heir abroad before closing his eyes, and finally at the suggestion of Tang Ruowang, Shun Qi established his third son Xuanye as his heir.
At that time, Xuan Ye was only eight years old, and his two elder brothers were still alive, why did Shunzhi have to let him inherit the throne, did he think Xuan Ye would become a good emperor?
This doesn't seem convincing, after all, many people can't predict the future, and Xuan Ye actually has an advantage over his brothers, because he had measles, he survived, and his body developed antibodies, and measles was very terrible for the Qing court at that time, because the mortality rate was very high.
With antibodies, Xuan Ye was naturally no longer afraid of measles, which was a good thing for the royal family, so after Shunzhi's death, Xuan Ye became the new emperor of the Qing Dynasty, with the era name"Kangxi"。
You don't say that Kangxi is really great, he reigned for sixty-one years, and he is the longest reigning emperor in Chinese history, he has reigned for so many years, and he has also done a lot of major events in history, pacifying the three feudatories, liberating Taiwan, personally conquering Galdan three times, expelling the Tsar ** people, etc.
In particular, Taiwan's revival is still exciting. This is China's treasure island, how can we allow people who are not of our race to have different hearts and their hearts to be at peace?
Kangxi can not only distinguish between right and wrong in big things, but also think independently in small things, he really has the style of a wise man, when he lost in chess, he left 8 words of classic quotations, which triggered thinking.
Play chess. After Kangxi came to power, he was very worried about the behavior of the royal family and nobles, because the Manchu Qing entered the customs from outside the customs and may have used horseback archery as a capital to show their strength, but these magnates indulged in carnival and lost the fine traditions of their ancestors.
Subsequently, he ordered the organization of a large hunt every year to preserve the style of archery on horseback.
For thirty-seven years, Kangxi carried out hunting activities as planned, Kangxi took the royal children to hunt in the Mulan hunting ground in northern Serbia, and Kangxi organized the harvest.
Kangxi often went to the pavilion to rest in his spare time, because the game knew that Kangxi liked to play chess, so he set up the chessboard in the pavilion early.
Kangxi really saw this like chess, and ordered a group of ministers to accompany him to play a few games of chess, of course, these ministers tried their best to please the emperor, and the main thing was to lose more and win less.
However, Kangxi felt that the situation was not good, so he asked his subordinates not to hide their strength, and his subordinates agreed, but in fact they still did not dare to win.
Seeing this scene, Kangxi commanded:
If you win against me, you will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver.
Under the heavy money, there must be brave men, and under the convincing of the minister, a guard named Ren Fu will come to play against Kangxi.
After several inquiries, Kangxi knew that Renfu liked to play chess since he was a child, and he had studied chess quite a lot, so he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately sat down with Renfu to play with him.
Die quickly for a thousand years. When Ren Fu stepped on the chessboard, he immediately showed his gritted teeth offensive move, while Emperor Kangxi only showed the part of passive escape, and those who are familiar with chess theory naturally saw that Emperor Kangxi was doomed to fail in this game of chess.
However, Kangxi did not admit defeat easily, but continued to play chess, intending to find out Ren Fu's flaws, but Ren Fu's chess skills were superb, and Kangxi couldn't find any flaws for a while.
When Kangxi was about to admit defeat, the special eunuch couldn't bear to see his master lose face, so he took the opportunity to say to Kangxi:
News came from the hunting ground that a wild tiger had been found in the mountains, and the people were overwhelmed, so His Majesty went hunting himself.
Kangxi heard that there was a wild tiger outside, and his vigilance suddenly increased, so he stood up and explained the situation to Ren Fu:
Let's play a good game of chess. When I catch the tiger, I'll fight with you.
When Kangxi went up the mountain, he didn't see the tiger after looking for a long time, so it can be seen that the news of the tiger was made up by the eunuchs, and the tiger did not exist.
Kangxi threw the agreement with Ren Fu into the trash can in disappointment and returned to the palace with everyone.
Ten days later, Kangxi wanted to play chess again, so he thought of Ren Fu and hurriedly asked people to play ** for Ren Fu, but Kangxi didn't wait for Ren Fu, only waited for the news that Ren Fu died violently in the wild.
Kangxi was shocked and didn't understand why Ren Fu was brutally killed, so he immediately took people back to the hunting ground to investigate the matter in person.
Utmost. When Kangxi came to the hunting ground, he was moved by the scene in front of him, only to find that Ren Fu had died tragically, and he was still guarding Kangxi's doomed chess game.
After a long investigation, Kangxi finally found the reason for Ren Fu's violent death.
On the day Kangxi fought the tiger, Ren Fu was ordered to take care of the chessboard, and of course Ren Fu did not dare to leave the chessboard for half a step without permission.
However, Emperor Kangxi was negligent that day and did not go back to play chess with Ren Fu, and the result was undoubtedly lost, and he did not think of Ren Fu for more than ten days after that.
Those who did not dare to leave the Ren Mansion could only stay around the chessboard inch by inch, giving a thumbs up to the Ren Mansion for ten days without eating or drinking, and finally starved to death by the chessboard.
There was no one else among the guards at that time, but all the eunuchs explained that the reason why they didn't let Ren Fu eat and drink was because they felt that they couldn't let their master lose the game in front of the guards no matter what, otherwise the whole world would laugh at the emperor for not even being as good as a small guard.
In this way, Ren Fu forgot about Kangxi who broke into the desert, and did not wait for the due reward, but lost his life, which is really regrettable.
When Kangxi realized what had happened, he blamed himself in the depths of his heart and said slowly:
How can a king be a king without religion?
Qianlong pleaded guilty, ordered Ren Fu to be buried thickly, and rewarded his family, and the case was closed.
And the eight words of self-doubt left by Qianlong have also become classic quotations. Whether it is related to the emperor or not, ordinary people should also be concerned"Letters"word, attention to"Letters"The basic principles of life.
These eight words still apply to everyone today, and when a person loses his integrity, society abandons him.
