Kangxi's evaluation has always been not low, and no matter how high it is, it can only be enshrined in heaven.
Kangxi's evaluation is: Emperor of the Ages!
According to the literal meaning, it takes only one thousand years to produce one, and the ancient Chinese hold only 4 places, and strictly from the feudal era, there are only 2.
So can Kangxi really be in the top 2 or top 4?
Historical Xiaobai likes to look at the map area the most, Kangxi won the desert north of Tibet, the area of xinjiang is probably ranked tenth among the emperors of our country. A lot of them think it's awesome.
In fact, Gordan's men were no more than 20,000 men, and no more than 50,000. The vast majority of Mongol nobles in the east sided with Kangxi. For the first time, he actually fought a draw with Kangxi, and compromised with russia in exchange for not supporting Ge Eregg, which had to wait for Ge Eregg to die of illness. Lin Dan Khan, who was also of the same size, let Chongzhen fight six battles and six victories. Since the introduction of Buddhism in Tibet, the meek like a sheep, Dzungar's six thousand troops invaded Tibet, and kangxi defeated in Tibet. This Kangxi sent a large army to invade Tibet by force. It's not too difficult to be true.
2. Catch the bow. That Ao Bai also deserves to be called a powerful minister? What about you and the Han Dynasty? Wei Zhongxian claimed to be nine thousand years old, but he only knew that there was a loyal sage and did not know that there was an emperor. Folk have built a shrine for him, is not better than Ao Bai Bull? Chongzhen said to take it down. Under high centralization, it is really not difficult for the emperor to target a single courtier.
3. Ping San Francisco. See how people in history have cut their domains. Emperor Jing of Han, the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, was directly quelled in three months. Emperor Wu of han, Tuien ordered the world's first Yang plot. The most dish of Zhu Yunwen, that is also the first to start from the weak, took down a bunch of uncles, almost pressed Zhu Di to death in Beiping City. My brother Mazi is very powerful, "Cutting the clan is also anti-, and not cutting is also anti-." "Then let's go up together." If there is no preparation, a single edict will pull out the roots of all the kings of the clan. As a result, San Francisco was sentenced together, and instantly swept through half of the Qing Dynasty. Thanks to Wu Sangui's violent death, this was fought for eight years.
4. Conquer Taiwan, I have to say that my brother Mazi's body is good. Don't laugh, the degree of physical health is a very important indicator of the emperor. Although my brother Mazi was beaten by Taiwan to fight the resentment of the coastal relocation people boiled over, hundreds of thousands of people died. But my brother Mazi can survive, this time to boil Zheng Jing to death, right? Brother Mazi won again.
To tell the truth, regardless of his brutal exploitation of the Han chinese as a Manchu, his thinking is imprisoned. In a single round of personal ability, Kangxi's level is probably the asset of a middle man. But just in the period of dynastic rise, the ancestors left him a basic disk that was large enough, a healthy body, and some of which could be completed by volume over time.
In his later years, the sluggishness of the government led to the rampant corruption of corrupt officials in the imperial court. The fire consumption rate of the Ming Dynasty was 20 to 30%. The Kangxi Dynasty turned out to be at 80%. Is this also worthy of being called the Emperor of the Ages? There are a hundred emperors in the ages, right?
Thanks to having a good son. The fire was returned to the public, the stall was divided into acres, and the gentry were sent to collect grain and save the mess he left behind. The Establishment of the Military Aircraft Department brought feudal centralization to its peak. Released the "Mystery of the Great Righteousness" and put the distinction between Huayi on the table. Yongzheng's ability is really the only one in the Qing Dynasty.
The nine sons took the concubine, and due to Kangxi's improper handling of the prince's problem, the phenomenon of the ninth son taking the concubine was caused. Usually we think that Kangxi was very successful in educating the crown prince, but in fact, the sons of Shang Kangxi were basically corrupt and corrupt, and basically no one in the DPRK and China dared to take care of them, which was directly related to Kangxi's own connivance. The Kangxi Emperor himself did not respect the teachers of the princes, and repeatedly reprimanded and punished their teachers in front of the princes, in this case, how dare the teachers educate these princes and masters well? So the final result was that the education was quite unsuccessful, as the next generation of emperors to cultivate Yin Rong could not be satisfied by Kangxi, other sons have formed henchmen, the throne is eyeing the tiger, each political means is poisonous, the economy blatantly asks for bribes, and even directly occupies the finances of others. Xingwen Prison, it is generally known that the Yongzheng Qianlong period of the literary prison prevailed, in fact, the text prison began from the Kangxi period, a total of 11 cases. It has caused great damage to the development of culture.
8. Stop the way of Sinicization, the Shunzhi Emperor promoted the way of Sinicization, but unfortunately, with the untimely death of the Shunzhi Emperor, the road of Sinicization within the Manchu Qing Dynasty stopped. During the period of the Four Auxiliary Ministers, Manchuria was advocated to stop Sinicization, and although Kangxi ended the Four Auxiliary Ministers, its political orientation was quite consistent with that of the Four Auxiliary Ministers, all of which were aimed at ending the Sinicization road of the Shunzhi Emperor, and ethnic integration was basically stagnant.
These are all things that do not correspond to the actual Kangxi Emperor in our impressions, and this is why I think Kangxi is overrated. However, in fact, the Kangxi Emperor's contribution to the territory of China, the de facto abolition of the Ding tax, the abolition of the artisan's register, the repair of the river, and a series of other measures have made significant contributions, and it may still be said that he was an excellent politician. But to regard Xuan Ye as an emperor through the ages and even the greatest and noblest emperor in Chinese history should be a product of man-made.
In fact, although the Kangxi Emperor also made a lot of achievements, he was far from the most outstanding emperors such as Tang Taizong, who was highly respected by Chinese.
