History live broadcast: the beginning is Qin Shihuang's live broadcast of the subjugation of th

"This was a mistake Kangxi made in his later years. Kangxi wanted all his sons to hold power. He wanted to check and balance each other. He also kept an eye on the prince. He wanted to see which son was rebellious and who had the ability to inherit his throne. The throne, so that the country can be forever stable, the court will not be in chaos, and the people can enjoy peace."

"In fact, this method is indeed very good. In the Kangxi era, it was indeed possible to determine which emperor could be a capable minister and good general. But just like the consequences of Zhu Yuanzhang dividing his sons, the brothers all had their own power and connections, forming an intricate network. Officials are corrupt and form cliques for personal gain.”

"The second point is that Kangxi condoned corruption in his later years, which led to the chaos of officials and officials in the court at that time."

"In the later years of Kangxi, even if some officials embezzled tens of thousands of taels of silver, they were not killed."

"This led to corruption in the officialdom. All officials began to take bribes. Suddenly, everything in the government and the government was full of chaos."

"The contradiction between Manchu officials and Han officials in the imperial court gradually intensified, and the clique dispute became increasingly serious. However, after Kangxi discovered it, he turned a blind eye and failed to regulate it, which caused the court to be in turmoil."

"The imperial court was originally a miniature society. The imperial court was turbulent and the Manchu and Han officials were constantly fighting. This also caused various conflicts among the social forces they represented."

"Because the two parties are fighting and deadlocked, the burden on the people is increasing day by day, and various problems arise one after another."

"In addition, Kangxi trusted some treacherous officials in his later years, such as Wei Zhongxian, He Shen and others. These people used their power and status to engage in wanton corruption, which led to social unrest and direct chaos."

"Apathy can be said to be a major shortcoming in Kangxi's later years."

"Because of Emperor Kangxi's neglect of government, his trust in treacherous ministers, and the corruption of officials, he even arbitrarily misappropriated money from the state treasury. In addition, the Qing army had a long-term confrontation with the Galdan tribe in the northwest, and its military expenditures were huge, resulting in the Qing government's treasury being empty."

"By the year of Kangxi's death, there were only more than 250 million taels of silver left in the national inventory, and the Ministry of Household Affairs alone had a deficit of [-] million taels. It was really a huge mess. The reason for this phenomenon was Kangxi's treatment of corrupt officials in his later years. "kindness"."

"And in order to solve this problem, Kangxi adopted some unrealistic economic policies, such as issuing banknotes and increasing taxes, which led to inflation and social unrest."

"To be honest, if it weren't for the new successor, Yongzheng would have been more capable. If there was an emergency in the country, the country wouldn't be able to spend money to solve it."

"The third is the biggest black spot of Kangxi. Everyone knows that in terms of neglect of government, it is also harming their own country. There is an emperor who can do something behind him, which can correct the chaos. However, Kangxi did something that pushed the flower-growing country into the abyss. .”

"Stop foreign trade and start implementing a policy of isolation."

"At that time, the country's trade was all done by sea. However, during trade, some thieves would appear and commit robberies."

"In order to avoid this situation, Kangxi simply began to stop foreign trade."

"The implementation of this strategy directly led to the blockage of development news at home and abroad. During the Qianlong and Jiaqing periods, the Qing Dynasty never opened up foreign trade, which led to the subsequent Opium War." "During the Opium War, the Qing Dynasty Only then did I realize that my country, the Great Celestial Empire, had already lagged behind the Western powers for hundreds of years."

Zheng Chenggong: People are getting old and confused. "Slacking in government" is something that many emperors have done, but it is the only thing that should not close contacts with overseas countries.

Zheng He: Haha!In the Tang Dynasty, countries still learned from each other, but you, the Qing Dynasty, were so powerful that you didn’t feel the need to learn culture and thought you were invincible.

Zhu Youjian: The development of Western countries is much higher than that of the Central Plains. I don’t know what to think. Why are the countries closed to the outside world? What about the emperors behind them?You don’t even understand foreign trade?

Liu Bang: I have seen the Opium War. It was really terrible. When I saw a group of people getting sick, they lost all their dignity. I don’t know how dark the Five Barbarians and Ten Kingdoms were. I saw the Opium War with my own eyes!

Li Shimin: I have not seen the Opium War, but I have also read two wars about the Qing Dynasty and the unequal treaties. I feel that the consequences caused by the Kangxi Emperor are not worthy of the two "outstanding" awards. Character.

Qin Shihuang: I have also seen one or two, but I never thought that this emperor was responsible for this ending. How could Miss Zhang think of him as the tenth emperor?This directly brings the end of history!
Cao Cao: Is it because of the contributions you made earlier?If your future generations can recognize this because of this, we ancients will not recognize it. Not to mention the many wars that followed, the empires we ancients conquered will directly become history by his time.

Zhu Di: We ancients should all agree with what Prime Minister Cao said. Miss Zhang, because we are all history and you are a descendant. Do you think Emperor Kangxi’s contribution can make him an “outstanding” emperor? But for us ancients, these things are not worth mentioning. We don’t recognize the person who conquered the country. If it weren’t for the consequences of the Qing Dynasty, this history would have gone further, and there would be new dynasties to continue it. We don’t recognize this person!

Zheng He: No!
Li Shimin: I don’t recognize him either!
Yongzheng: As an emperor of the Qing Dynasty, I can only say sorry for this matter, which caused economic disparity later. I also saw those wars. As an emperor of the Qing Dynasty, I felt even more uncomfortable.

Zhang Yanxi didn't know what to say when he saw these speeches. Perhaps as everyone said, without Emperor Kangxi's isolation, there would be no powerlessness in the face of war in the future, let alone a history of only 5000 years. Perhaps this long river will last longer.

This time it seems that this outstanding emperor has just started and needs to be re-ranked. So who should I rank as the tenth?

Excluding the Yuan Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, two emperors came to mind, Wu Zetian and Li Zhi. She had already talked about Li Zhi. Most emperors seemed to deny his achievements, but Wu Zetian in his later years?

With a wry smile, as a woman, being able to ascend the throne is also an expression!

Fusu: Ms. Zhang has been thinking, does this mean she agrees to our substitution?

Cheng Yaojin: Emperor Kangxi won’t come out and have a chat?We can be dull in our old age, but we can't let us end our generation. There is a saying that goes well, did the First Emperor still want to live forever in his later years?Emperor Wu was still outrageous in his old age. He could change dynasties, but he could not disappear or change.

Li Longji: I can’t recognize it!Miss Zhang, I think if you don't have the goal of being emperor, if you put me in the tenth place and praise me, there will be no need to talk about the "Anshi Rebellion" again.
