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

"Emperor Chongzhen was born in an ordinary palace and was destined to live an idle life. But fate pushed him to the throne."

"Emperor Chongzhen was indeed diligent and hardworking after taking office. During his reign, he did not hesitate to stay up all night to review memorials and take the lead in frugality. This was indeed very diligent, but his persistence and hard work seemed to have turned into a tragedy."

"Because Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian single-handedly got rid of Wei Zhongxian, and the ministers boasted about the emperor's power, it was obvious that he had an overestimation of his political ability. During his more than ten years of rule, He is arbitrary, does everything by himself, and over-believes in his own abilities, so his self-confidence slowly turns into arrogance and self-will, and he then insists on going his own way. Once he fails, he will just cover up his mistakes, and use ministers as scapegoats, and he succeeds by luck. , you will become more conceited and sink deeper and deeper.”

"There is a minister, Chen Xinjia, who is the best example."

"During the campaign, Songjin fell. Afterwards, Emperor Chongzhen wanted to negotiate a peace with the Qing army so that he could concentrate on dealing with the rebels. Chen Xinjia, the Minister of War, secretly planned the peace negotiation with the emperor in private."

"One day, Emperor Chongzhen sent his cronies to send another handwritten edict to Chen Xinjia, urging him to try to negotiate peace as soon as possible. Chen Xinjia was not at home, so he left the secret edict on the desk. The Chen family's book boy mistakenly thought it was an ordinary "Tang Bao", so he He took it out and handed it over to various departments for copying, and then the emperor's secret presiding over the peace talks was made public, and the officials were in an uproar and immediately wrote a memorial to oppose it."

"Emperor Chongzhen could not deny it, so he became angry and decreed: "Chen Xinjia will be executed as soon as he writes it." The reason is that the rogue bandits broke into the city, and the Minister of War, who was close to the vassal of the emperor, should be fully responsible for the death of the emperor."

"Chen Xinjia is definitely not the only minister who died unjustly under Emperor Chongzhen."

"And those who do good things are often killed, while those who don't do good things get a better end. The greater the merit, the more miserable the death."

"It's not clear about the early dynasties, but about the later dynasties, even the people should know that the famous general Yuan Chonghuan can be said to be the most capable, loyal and patriotic minister in the late Ming Dynasty, and his ending was also the most miserable."

"The unjust killing of Yuan Chonghuan was the most serious and unforgivable mistake made by Emperor Chongzhen."

"At first, Yuan Chonghuan was the person who gained the most trust from Emperor Chongzhen. Emperor Chongzhen appointed him as the Secretary of the Ministry of War and the right deputy censor of the capital, and handed over the entire Houjin defense to him. Of course, Yuan Chonghuan did not live up to the emperor's expectations and fought many beautiful battles. The battle resulted in the Ming Dynasty’s great enemy Nurhachi dying of depression after being wounded and sick after the defeat of Ningjin.”

"In October 1629 AD, hundreds of thousands of Jin troops detoured and attacked BJ, the capital of the Ming Dynasty. After receiving the information, Yuan Chonghuan, who was guarding western Liaoning, immediately led the Ming army to BJ and started a fierce battle with the enemy."

"At this time, Wei Zhongxian's remnant party spread rumors that the Jin soldiers who took a detour to Beijing were entirely brought in by Yuan Chonghuan."

"The commander-in-chief of the Later Jin Army, Huang Taiji, also used two eunuchs captured under BJ City to frame Yuan Chonghuan. He widely spread rumors in the military camp that he had an appointment with Governor Yuan, and deliberately let the two eunuchs hear it, and then let him go After killing them, the two eunuchs fled back to the palace and told Emperor Chongzhen the secret news they heard in the military camp."

"The mediocre Emperor Chongzhen was so convinced that he immediately ordered people to arrest Yuan Chonghuan. Two months later, the troops of the Later Jin Dynasty withdrew, and Yuan Chonghuan was ordered to be executed late by Emperor Chongzhen, thereby destroying the Great Wall and leading to the defeat of the Ming Dynasty. receive."

"Emperor Chongzhen was moody and had a temperamental character that made the generals and ministers tremble with fear, walking on thin ice. The tyrant side of Emperor Chongzhen was also fully revealed here. Lingchi's execution of the famous general Yuan Chonghuan was enough to nail him to the pillar of shame as a tyrant. On." "At the last moment of the Ming Dynasty's demise, Emperor Chongzhen's cruelty was once again exposed, which was the death of the country as mentioned earlier."

Zhu Yuanzhang: When BJ was captured, I felt that it was better to be killed by one of my own people than to be insulted!There was nothing wrong with this.

Xiaozhuang: What about my daughter?If it were me, I might not be able to do anything. It's just two children. Why can't I send them out and let them live anonymously and live an ordinary life? Instead of killing them.

"Looking at this incident, things are not absolute. I and future generations cannot guarantee that Zhu Youjian did the right thing in this matter. Some people do not agree with this view. They will think that Emperor Chongzhen is too cruel."

"In March 1644, Li Zicheng's rebel army invaded the city of BJ. The defeated Emperor Chongzhen sent away the three princes and ordered the queen and all the concubines to commit suicide. He held a sword and hacked around like crazy, hacking to death. After several concubines, he came to Shouning Palace where Princess Changping lived, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Why were you born in an emperor's family! "While slashing with his sword, Princess Changping suddenly bled profusely and fell into a pool of blood. Then Emperor Chongzhen ran to Zhaoren Hall and brutally killed Princess Zhaoren."

Dugu Jialuo: Listening to this sentence again, I feel a little scared. It is indeed too cruel. This Xiaozhuang is actually right. If I were going through this problem, I would have the two little ones sent away and start. ?Really can't go down.

Qin Shihuang: Hu Hai brought down the Qin Dynasty to death, and I didn't even take his life. I really loved this child, how could I kill him with such cruel hands? Alas!
Wu Zetian: As a father, he would definitely not feel comfortable killing his own child. It would be very painful.

"This topic is too heavy, I think it's time to end it."

"Almost every decision made by Emperor Chongzhen backfired. Countless policies and actions not only failed to save the fate of the Ming Dynasty, but accelerated the destruction of the Ming Dynasty."

"It is this contradiction between reality and ideals that made it possible for the minister to not tell him anything in the end, because if you say something, you may be wrong; if you say something, you may be wrong if you don't do it; if you say something, something happens halfway. There may be errors.”

"At this time, how do you choose? What will be the chain reaction of your choice? Therefore, the ministers will no longer provide opinions. It all depends on Emperor Chongzhen's own judgment. There is no way. For Emperor Chongzhen, people's thoughts are that of the ministers. Don’t understand me, lie to me.”

"If you say it's all Emperor Chongzhen's fault, that's not entirely true, and it can't be entirely blamed on Emperor Chongzhen."

"He was originally an idle prince. He inherited a precarious country. The problems he faced were as big as mountains and oceans, and what he could do was limited."

"Chongzhen's throne was destined to bear the responsibility for the downfall of the Ming Dynasty. Although he worked hard, he failed to reverse the direction of history."

"No one wants to be a subjugated king, and Zhu Youjian also wanted to save the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Chongzhen should have tried his best to deal with the natural and man-made disasters at that time. And from the incident I mentioned, it can be seen that Zhu Youjian's political ability was not very strong. He can't save Daming from this situation. He can only say that Zhu Youxiao has left a mess for his younger brother."
