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

"Although Jiaqing has implemented a series of measures, Jiaqing's courage and ability are indeed somewhat lacking. Coupled with his limited rectification of internal affairs, although he has empty ambitions, the results are very little. The entire country is in an irreversible trend. The trend is gradually weakening."

"The Jiaqing Dynasty lasted for more than 20 years."

"For more than 20 years, Jiaqing never relaxed its authority. Until the day before his death, Emperor Jiaqing was still handling government affairs tirelessly. On the surface, Emperor Jiaqing was busy all day long and never rested for a moment, but How much of this busyness is really meaningful?”

"He has become accustomed to not using his own brain, but following the ancestral system and letting the ancestors use their brains for him."

"In the day-to-day confusion and pain, Emperor Jiaqing experienced frustration that is difficult for ordinary people to understand, and eventually became a mediocre good person."

"It can be said that Emperor Jiaqing had no merits and demerits, and he knew that there were many internal problems. To say that the transition from prosperity to decline would be more accurate from the late Qianlong period to the early Jiaqing period."

"The existence of the Kangxi and Qianlong dynasties is inseparable from Yongzheng. Qianlong's six expeditions to the south of the Yangtze River are also inseparable from Yongzheng. Without Yongzheng, there would be no Kangxi and Qianlong dynasties. Therefore, the Kangxi and Qianlong dynasties should be called the Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties."

"And the most important one is Yongzheng. Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty is really worthy of being called the Mingjun."

"Kangxi was called the first emperor of the ages in later generations, not only because he lived a long life, but also because of his many achievements."

"One old and one young, Xiaozhuang and Kangxi, two people maintained the orthodoxy of the Qing Dynasty."

"After Kangxi came Yongzheng. Some unofficial historians say that Yongzheng's succession method was unfair."

"This is actually just a slander. The Qing Dynasty at that time issued three versions of the succession edict, in Manchu, Mongolian and Khan languages. Therefore, Yongzheng's throne was justified."

"Yongzheng has been criticized from ancient times to modern times, from his improper origin to having a lot of hats on his head."

"But Yongzheng was really a rare good emperor. He had the fewest concubines in the harem. He organized the staff and increased the treasury of the Qing Dynasty."

"Yongzheng's untimely death is more like death from exhaustion."

"The person who succeeded Yongzheng was Qianlong.

You must know that Qianlong's six romantic visits to Jiangnan were all because Yongzheng left him a lot of money. "

"After Qianlong, there was Emperor Yong Yan of Jiaqing. From the time Qianlong passed the throne to Yong Yan, the Qing Dynasty began to decline."

"Qianlong lived too long, and too many sons died in the early stage. The one he finally got was his fifteenth son. This was also a choice he had no choice."

"It can be seen that the node where the Qing Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline was the late Qianlong period and the early Jiaqing period."

"When Qianlong was in power, he once said that the Ming Dynasty died in Wanli, but Qianlong never expected that some people would say that the Manchu Qing Dynasty died in Qianlong."

Li Shimin: To put it bluntly, no merit is the biggest fault!

Yang Guang: Li Er, how do you deserve to say this? Your son gave up the throne of the Tang Dynasty to a woman. This is far greater than a meritless act!

Qin Shihuang: Inactivity is the biggest fault of an emperor, but if you have not learned the art of an emperor, it is very good to be diligent. Look at my Hu Hai, do you think he has other faults?

Liu Xiu: That’s true. It’s better to have no merit and no fault than to lose one’s own family.

"Emperor Jiaqing passed the throne to Minning, also known as Emperor Daoguang. From this point on, the shortcomings of feudal society became a fatal blow."

"This Emperor Daoguang seems to be more like Emperor Chongzhen than Emperor Jiaqing."

Han Yu: Needless to say, he was another mediocre emperor.

Kangxi: Unfilial descendants, why don't you know how to teach your own son? I don't even have to listen to know the result. I don't know the art of the emperor, what else can I expect his own son to know?

Zhao Kuangyin: At least mediocrity is better than mediocrity! Look at me, Da Song, it’s good that I can still live well now. Li Longji: Haha! That's true!

"The two people are almost identical in their shortcomings. They are too suspicious, they listen to others, and they lack determination and responsibility."

"How do you evaluate this Emperor Daoguang? It can be said that "there is scheming but no great strategy, there is little ability but no great talent!" "

"Scheming and scheming are indeed very important knowledge for the emperor, but you can't lose your talent and strategy because of this!"

"For an emperor, how much contribution can he make to the country just by wearing patchwork clothes and being frugal?"

"Is it possible to win a foreign war and prevent aggression?"

"At this point, you mediocre people are worse than a mediocre Ming Wuzong."

"The two emperors were almost the same. They were blindly arrogant and liked to blame others. Emperor Daoguang was not the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty. It can only be said that the Qing Dynasty's power was not exhausted yet, but from this point onwards, he was more harmful to the Ming Dynasty than the Empress Dowager Cixi. incredible."

"But the consequences of the Qing Dynasty cannot be attributed to Daoguang alone."

“I don’t have much merit, but I was still very ambitious in the early stage.”

"Emperor Daoguang is the only emperor in the history of the Flower Planting Kingdom who spans ancient and modern times."

"Emperor Daoguang can be said to be the tragic representative of the feudal emperor. Like his father, Emperor Jiaqing, he was diligent, benevolent, and frugal. He also abided by the laws of his ancestors and tried to change something."

"But the emperors of the late Qing Dynasty generally lacked vision and courage, and Emperor Daoguang was no exception."

"In the lifeless palace, the emperors who were brought up by women and eunuchs knew how to be diligent, frugal and benevolent, but the courage, vision and ideas of their fathers were being worn away from generation to generation in this lifeless palace. Lose."

"If it were the Han Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty, if there were still a new emperor with a different surname who had courage, courage, ideas, and vision, he would be replaced."

"But the late Qing Dynasty was facing changes that had not happened every year for three thousand years. The country needed an emperor with courage, vision and vision."

"But unfortunately, at the end of this feudal era, these mediocre good people, who were raised by women and eunuchs, can only lose their power and humiliate the country in the fear of failure."

"During the twenty-five years of Jiaqing's reign, war broke out all over the Qing Dynasty and civil unrest continued, which eventually led to his physical and mental exhaustion and his death."

"This should be a tragedy for the Qing Dynasty."

"But in fact, the tragedy of the Qing Dynasty has just begun."

"After Jiaqing died, his second son "Jin Ning" succeeded him as Emperor Daoguang."

"Emperor Daoguang is good at riding and shooting, he can also use muskets, and his marksmanship is pretty good."

"In the 18th year of Jiaqing's reign, when the Tianlijiao rebels invaded Beijing, he led the Qing army to fight against the rebels and defend the imperial city."

"It's the fire-fighting mentioned earlier, the matter of Emperor Jiaqing issuing the edict to sin against oneself."

"It is said that after he heard about the incident, he quickly asked the eunuch to take out the firecrackers banned in the imperial city from the palace warehouse, and then led the palace guards to Yangxin Hall to stop the Tianli believers."
