Our Chinese history is long and long, after countless emperors, the success or failure of the emperor not only comes from his own cultivation and character, but also inseparable from the assistance of the people around him, if there are several people who can be trusted and have high ability, then it will assist the emperor to create a prosperous world, so the question of the emperor's employment of people has always been a problem of concern, the use of people is very important, and it can directly affect the decisions made by the emperor. Speaking of the Yongzheng Emperor, during his thirteen-year reign, he refreshed the rule of officials, reversed the economic crisis that occurred in the last years of the Kangxi Dynasty, and made things that had a profound impact on future generations, which can be regarded as a Ming Emperor.
At that time, Yin Chan was actually not the most suitable in the eyes of the former emperor, there were many princes who were competing for the throne, and a prince had been deposed before, after the fierce nine sons seized the concubine, Yin Chan stood out as the Yongzheng Emperor, why did the brothers kill each other just for the throne? In fact, in the feudal society is also a society of rights, you must climb to a solid position to be able to grasp your own life. And Yin Chan knew in his heart that if he could not successfully ascend to the throne, his life would be difficult to protect.
Yin Chan ascended to the throne, which means that from now on, it is related to the stability and development of the entire country, and the responsibility is naturally great at the same time as the power is great. A few years after Yin Chan ascended the throne, he ushered in a big test. In 1729, war suddenly broke out in the originally stable domestic environment, and the newly established Military Aircraft Department was not yet fully developed, and many places were not mature enough to resist sudden foreign enemies. When Yongzheng was distressed, another flood broke out in Jiangnan, and two major events that needed to be dealt with urgently were encountered at once. Yongzheng was very upset in his heart, and he had to rely on people he trusted to solve it, but Yongzheng's most trusted brother, The Thirteenth Master, fell ill, and when he was so nervous in the face of internal and external troubles, there was no one available.
Although it is the time to employ people, but he can not lack strategists around him to assist himself, Yongzheng has the heart to let Li Wei to cure the water, but fate makes people, at this time Li Wei's mother died unexpectedly, need to stay at home to deal with the aftermath, Li Wei naturally can not count on. The loyal minister Zhang Tingyu saw Yongzheng, who was worried at this time, and opened the mode of "rushing to the hospital" and recommended a person to the emperor, but this person was a death row prisoner, named Actun. Acton is not an ordinary death row prisoner, and must be favored by Zhang Tingyu because of his superior ability. In fact, Acton is a Manchu, and he was also passed the examination through the imperial examination, which can be described as talented, and if he came forward to solve the problem at this time, he would certainly be able to help the emperor solve his problems.
During the Kangxi Dynasty, Actun was greatly valued, and various rewards and commendations were awarded to him as a Shujishi of the Hanlin Yuan, and later became an important official position such as a ceremonial attendant, and after Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, he even made Akdun a feudal official. However, there were not many people who were popular, and the same was true in the imperial court, and many officials looked at Acton with red eyes, and for a time the folds of impeachment him flew all over the sky. Perhaps some people did not like it, or perhaps someone retaliated, at first Yongzheng regretted that he did not dispose of Acton, but when Yongzheng learned that Akton had asked for a bribe from the Siamese emissaries, Yongzheng thought that such an official was very humiliating in the DPRK and affected the face and image of Daqing, so he personally ordered him to be put on death row.
Perhaps Yongzheng did not expect that he would be used one day when he was ordered to dispose of Acton. When Yongzheng heard Zhang Tingyu's recommendation, he was overjoyed in his heart and thought that there was such a capable person. Yongzheng fully believed that Acton could perfectly solve the current dilemma encountered in the DPRK. After Actun was released, he was sent to Jiangnan to deal with the flood, and he used two years to manage Jiangnan well, which can also be regarded as making up for the work. Because of his meritorious governance, the Yongzheng Emperor once again had a good feeling for Actun and transferred him back to the capital to entrust him with a heavy responsibility. Later, Acton made many contributions to the Dzungar Wars and became a famous courtier in the later period.
Acton's life experience can be described as a big ups and downs, but it is also fortunate that he retrieved a life before dying, and he can also get the opportunity to make up for his deeds, make meritorious achievements, and leave a clear life. For the two emperors of Kangxi and Yongzheng, Actun was a good helper, and the emperor was able to guard the foundation without the assistance of these capable people.
