Li Xiucheng, the loyal king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, commented on Yang Xiuqing in his "Li Xiucheng Self-Description": "The Eastern King's government affairs are strict and orderly, the legislation is safe for the people, and the people's hearts are admired. "
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom should be one of the most well-known peasant uprisings in China's modern history, and the original Taiping Heavenly Kingdom peasant uprising can be described as a gathering of echoes, and many oppressed ordinary people responded to the call, and in just two years, they swept half of China, and fought against the Qing Dynasty, posing a great threat to the Qing court.
However, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom began to be proud and complacent, coveting enjoyment, deviating from its original intention, and finally ended up with a fiasco. In fact, this ending is mainly due to the nature of human nature, which is very easy to lose its way in the face of great rights and powers.
The taiping heavenly kingdom from top to bottom was the lowest peasant household, improper management methods, did not accept excellent education, and therefore did not have a global view of many things. In the case of the small achievements of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, internal disagreements began to arise, and the administrator Hong Xiuquan was not satisfied with the growing of his subordinates, afraid that the other side would develop an opposite, which would threaten his own influence, so he secretly killed.
Yang Xiuqing's prestige in the army was very high, causing Hong Xiuquan to be afraid, so Hong Xiuquan always wanted to get rid of him, although Hong Xiuquan was quite criticized in governing and managing, but in the application of strategy Hong Xiuquan was a real god, Hong Xiuquan successfully eliminated Yang Xiuqing, but did not take matters into his own hands, but also because of the false intention to take yang Xiuqing as the master and gain people's support, so that Yang Xiuqing's brother was willing to fight for Hong Xiuquan after his brother's death.
When Eliminating Yang Xiuqing, Hong Xiuquan used a knife to kill people, Yang Xiuqing's influence gradually increased, and his ability in management methods and governance far exceeded Hong Xiuquan, so he pointed out Hong Xiuquan in many things, making Hong Xiuquan very embarrassed and even dangerous, so he wanted to kill him.
At this time, Hong Xiuquan sent Wei Changhui to secretly do something, ending Yang Xiuqing's life. Although many people had already begun to suspect that Hong Xiuquan was going to execute Yang Xiuqing at that time, at this time, Hong Xiuquan did one thing, completely separating himself from this matter, that is, Yang Fuqing, the younger brother of Yang Xiuqing.
After performing a good play in front of Yang Fuqing's eyes, confirming how sad he was, and even after Yang Xiuqing died in the spit of the traitor and thief, Hong Xiuquan also falsely corrected Yang Xiuqing's name, prompting Yang Fuqing to be very moved. Wei Changhui, the direct murderer who killed Yang Xiuqing, was executed by Hong Xiuquan, and the appearance of eliminating harm for Zhonglie was actually Hong Xiuquan's one-stone double-eagle poison plan, and both Yang Xiuqing and Wei Changhui were calculated by Hong Xiuquan.
The greatest tragedy is not the blow from the outside of the enemy, but the disintegration within itself. History will not give the losers a second chance, but can only leave cruel destruction and endless regrets for the parties concerned, leaving infinite reverie and heavy sighs for future generations.
