Idle and bored, talking about some unknown things about Kangxi

author:Dapeng Humanities

Let's start with money.

1. In the 30th year of the Kangxi Dynasty, 77 Russian merchants came to Beijing. Not long ago, the Russians had just handed over 11 subjects who had crossed the border to the Qing court, and the Qing court cut 4 and whipped 7 according to the severity of the situation. At the same time, in the previous Quasi-Qing War, Tsarist Russia maintained a neutral position, prohibiting siberian strongholds from selling weapons to the Quasi-Commanders.

Therefore, in order to praise the Russians for their law-abiding and strict neutrality, Kangxi decided to reward them. The reward was to reimburse them for the travel expenses... But all the expenses of Russian merchants in Beijing are borne by them.

Fearing that the Russians would misunderstand, Kangxi also deliberately asked Soetu to tell the Russian merchants, "Because of the congratulations of my Holy Lord, Fang gave extra favors, but only this time, I must not take an example." ”

2. Around this point in time, Kaldan, who was defeated and poor, went to Kangxi and asked for silver "fifty or sixty thousand taels." This means, give me some money, I will not make a fuss, give you a face, everyone has their own way.

Kangxi was furious and rebuked him: "Er will deal with the things that have been completed repeatedly, hiding evil intentions, and must come personally and negotiate with the emperor before he can decide." ”

Soon after, however, Kaldan came again, basically similarly, the beasts and river fish were eaten, and thousands of people were unclothed, asking for "platinum", this time without saying the number of money.

The cabinet discussed it for a while, and thought that everyone had come to this job, and they all went to the door to ask for food, and they would not give too much dignity to the big country.

What did Kangxi do? "The emperor ordered the silver to give a thousand taels of silver and to enter the capital quickly, not for example."

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

In the 30th year of the Kangxi Dynasty, the whole country levied 2,737,556,642 silver, reduced taxes from the state capitals by 3,815,325, and distributed 2,754,352 silver.

In the forty-second year of Kangxi, Kangxi went out on a tour of Shanxi, and when he arrived in Taiyuan, he began to scold, for the following reasons:

"The palace cost 180,000 yuan, and now all the supplies will be 150,000."

Then call out the Elder Brother Of Karma in the Kangxi Dynasty and criticize it separately:

"Kali into the beauty of the four, this with the beauty of the count yes?" Treating you as such a person? ”

Then all the officials in Shanxi were punished.

Let's talk about the Kangxi war.

When fighting Yaksa, he sent someone to find the Khalkha Mongol (Outer Mongolia) Tushetu Khan and said that I knew about your robbery of other Mongolian tribes before, and when I presided over the mediation, I secretly helped you, and you also helped me to fight the Serengesk of Tsarist Russia, so that they could not increase their troops to Yaksa.

Tushetu Khan then sent his brother Sidishri with 8,000 men to fight with 500 musketeers and 1,400 Cossacks sent from Moscow by Tsarist Russia at Selengesk and Ulan-Ude until the people of Yaksa were almost starved to death and could not go to reinforcements.

Later, Kaldan sent troops to fight Khalkha, and several Khalkha tribes ran to the Qing-Mongolia border to ask for help, and Kangxi asked them to reflect first, thinking about whether they had robbed other people's territory in recent years, whether they had robbed the Qing Dynasty's territory, and confessed their own lives. Jebtsundamba, Tushetu Khan, and Chechen Khan all came to the table and confessed their previous criminal acts, and Kangxi said that he could pull you along.

When he sent an army to fight Gardan, he sent someone to contact Kaldan's wife, Anu, saying that Kaldan killed your grandfather, and I was very angry; then he sent someone to find Kaldan's nephew Celabutan, saying that Kaldan killed your brother and robbed your wife, I was very angry, I was going to send troops to beat him; Kangxi even sent someone to contact the Turks who had settled in the Volga River, and he told the leader Ayuqi, you have a vendetta against Dzungar, and now I want to beat Gardan, but Tsarist Russia may intervene, if Tsar russia moves, you will also do it over there If you succeed, I can get you back to Verat.

In the end, Gardan sent troops to rebel against Alabutan and occupied Kaldan's old nest, Kangxi fought from the east, he fought from the west, and Gardan could win.

Later, Kaldan was defeated for the first time, and the thief's heart was not dead, and he contacted Shajin in Horqin Mongolia and agreed to fight against the Qing together. Sha jin played Kangxi, and Kangxi told him that you pretended to agree, and then told me about Gardan's actions, and it was better to lure him to the interior so that I could surround him.

Gardan was ten years older than Kangxi.

Later, Alabutan became the commander of the quasi-ministry, raided Lhasa by surprise, and occupied Tibet. The Qinghai Mongols, led by Lobzang Tenzin, asked Kangxi for help, yes, the lobzang Tenzin who rebelled in the Yongzheng Dynasty. Kangxi cordially summoned Lobzang Tenzin in Beijing and said that you yourself would go first, and our army would arrive later. If you behave well, I will make you the Great Khan of Qinghai Mongolia.

Lobzang Tenzin listened, got busy, and after getting busy, he did logistics for old fourteen, played auxiliaries, and after the battle he went to ask for khan numbers, and old fourteen said that I did not know about this matter. He asked to go to Beijing to see Kangxi, but Kangxi was gone. Then, the Qing army occupied Qinghai and Tibet and did not go away...

You say that the damage is not damaged.

Let's talk about Kangxi's "benevolence".

After the defeat of Kaldan, Kaldan's son Sebten Barjul and daughter Zhong Qihai were captured. I repeat, Kangxi never married a daughter, but instead got Gardan's daughter.

This is the son of the commander of the enemy country, how did Kangxi deal with it? He was given a first-class bodyguard. Later, he chose a clan daughter to marry him.

What about daughters? He married her to the second-class bodyguard Shakdur.

Kangxi later summed up the Battle of Qingzhun by saying:

"Gardan is fierce, but he treats Him with benevolence; Gardan is treacherous and cunning, and he shows his integrity, and he has read Shi Yun, but the benevolent one is invincible."

In the thirty-fifth year of Kangxi, Kangxi's second conquest of Kaldan, when he set out in the morning, he saw that there were still soldiers eating, which was found to be because the luggage was transported late, resulting in the soldiers being unable to rest and delaying the meal.

Since then, every time he went to camp, Kangxi had watched all his luggage arrive outside the book before resting.

On March 15, the Kangxi Emperor marched to the place of Roll noor, the rain and snow were heavy, the sergeants had not yet camped, the emperor's rain clothes were exposed, and the waiting sergeants camped and entered the palace, and all the waiters in the camp cooked and then ate.

To his grandmother.

In the twenty-second year of the Kangxi Dynasty, Kangxi went to Gubeikou outside Saiwai to escape the summer, during which he shot an elk, let people apply some salt to the wound, and then sent someone to send a quick horse and whip to the empress palace, hoping that she could taste the wild game outside the sai.

It's a small thing, but it's warm.

In November of the 26th year of the Kangxi Dynasty, Xiaozhuang suddenly fell ill.

Kangxi issued an edict to the Punishment Department: "Serve the empress dowager, take pleasure day and night, obey the precepts of mercy, and serve wholeheartedly." At present, the empress dowager is unwell, worrying day and night, sleeping and eating, silently praying for heaven's blessing to extend the life of the empress dowager. Heaven has the virtue of good life, and he is willing to pray for heaven to bless the empress dowager with leniency. All those who have been questioned inside and outside the prison and who have seen serious prisoners, except for the most heinous crimes and corrupt officials and bare sticks, the rest have been ordered to be imprisoned for serious crimes of death, and all are exempted or exempted. ”

After that, the empress dowager's illness still did not improve, so Kangxi walked to the Temple of Heaven to offer sacrifices, and personally wrote a congratulatory text: "The danger is imminent, the square inch is confused, choose the day with the dare to clean the cockroach, lead the group of courtiers, call on the imperial vault, pray for mercy, pray for sincerity, stand up and show appreciation, and rise quickly, and calculate the long-term extension." If the majority is poor or poor, may the age of Xuan Ye be reduced, so as to increase the life expectancy of the empress dowager for several years, so that he will prostrate himself under the altar and pray to Hongyou, and pray for it. ”

That is, to exchange their own life for the life of the empress. Note that this is read out in public, not a private whisper, such a blessing method, I have not heard of a second case.

To his first empress, Empress Hyojo-in Ofsche.

She was only 11 years old when she married Kangxi, and Kangxi was also 11 years old. Although this is an age that may not even know what posture, it is an age that is not allowed by the law, but he is very good in both places.

This is good that there are not many records of Herschel's life, after all, it is impossible to describe how the emperor and empress had sex and what whispers they said, which was mainly manifested after Herschel's death.

On the third day of May in the thirteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, the Hersheli clan died in childbirth while yin was born, and Kangxi violated the system and made his son Yin rong crown prince.

After the death of the Hesheli clan, Kangxi ordered An Zi Palace to be in the Qianqing Palace, the only case of an empress in the entire Qing Dynasty.

On May 27, Kangxi personally sent Empress Renxiao to Gonghua City.

From June to December of the thirteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, the Kangxi Emperor visited Gonghuacheng 34 times, an average of 5.6 times a month.

In the fourteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, the Kangxi Emperor went to Gonghuacheng 24 times; in the fifteenth year of kangxi, the Kangxi Emperor went to Gonghuacheng 15 times.

Since then, Kangxi has gone more than eighty times.

In the sixteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, only ten days after the second empress of the Kangxi Dynasty, the Kangxi Emperor disregarded the fact that the period of great joy should be avoided, and personally went to Gonghua City to pay tribute to his wife. Kangxi Chinese New Year's Eve sixteen years later, Kangxi still braved the wind and rain to go to Gonghuacheng to accompany his wife's dead.

Even when he was about to depose the crown prince many years later, he still said it himself: "Yin Rong was born of the empress, and Concubine Xuan cherished it, and personally gave instructions..." Note that here he did not say the title of Empress Xiaochengren, but only said the empress, and whenever he thinks about it, he will be moved.

As for what many people now call "Kangxi cut off The Third Prince of Zhu", you most likely do not know how many popular uprisings have been provoked by the name of Prince Zhusan, and I will excerpt a few.

On December 22 of the twelfth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, Yang Qilong, in the name of "Third Prince of Zhu", was in the capital to correct the rebellion against the Qing.
On the night of March 20, 16th year of the Kangxi Dynasty, Cai Yin, a native of Zhangzhou, led tens of thousands of "White-headed Troopers" to revolt under the banner of "Prince Zhu San".
In June of the sixteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, some people in Zhecheng, Henan, falsely claimed that Prince Ming had revolted.
Around the forty-fourth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, the monks of Taicang Yinian in Jiangsu and Zhang Nianyi and Zhang Nian'er in Dalanshan, Zhejiang, and so on, again under the banner of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, in the name of "Zhu Sanzi".
In the eighteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1678), people in Hanzhong and Xing'an in Shaanxi province who called themselves "Zhu Sanzi" rebelled against the Qing, but were later defeated and arrested by the Fuyuan general Tu Hai.
In the thirty-eighth year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1698), the Jin monks in Jiangnan set up an old man in his seventies as the "Third Prince of Zhu", gathered at Taihu Lake, and plotted to kidnap him during kangxi's southern tour.
In November of the forty-sixth year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1707), Taicang Prefecture in Jiangsu And Simingshan in Zhejiang Province revolted almost simultaneously, and the leaders all called for "The Third Prince of Zhu".

According to incomplete statistics, during the Kangxi Dynasty, there were no less than a hundred anti-Qing movements in the name of Prince Zhu San, and if you were the emperor, wouldn't you kill him?

But Kangxi was not a person who killed indiscriminately, and the famous "Nanshan Case" of the Kangxi Dynasty reported that more than twenty people would be killed, and Kangxi finally beheaded only one.

All the important ministers and princes of the Kangxi Dynasty, as long as there was no rebellion, Kangxi did not kill a single one, not even Aobai.

In the eighth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, after Ao bai was arrested, the Kangxi edict said: "(Ao Bai) has served for a long time, and he cannot bear to be punished, but he has no official status." Not only that, in the fifty-second year of Kangxi, Kangxi remembered his old labor and posthumously awarded the first class Ashani Hafan, which was equivalent to rehabilitating him.

Wang Fuchen first rebelled against Ming, then Li Zicheng, then rebelled against Qing, and then surrendered to Qing, Kangxi did not kill, not only did not kill, because he was afraid of his crime and committed suicide, he also told Totuhai to look after him.

As for the so-called "development of capitalism".

If the price of rice in Jiangsu and Zhejiang exceeds one or two per stone, Kangxi will hold a cabinet meeting; the Kangxi Dynasty has issued more than 50 million taels of relief silver; since Kangxi pro-government, it has been repairing the Yellow River embankment; after the Battle of Yaksa, Tsarist Russia came to see Kangxi and kneel to pay homage.

In his first conversation with the history of Russia, Kangxi asked about Italy and France, and asked whether the war between the Tsar and the Turkish Sultan was over. He was not a monarch who closed his eyes and listened. But when your surroundings have been subdued by you, and most of the people in the country can live and work in peace and contentment, what need or motivation do you have to change?

That's it.
