The theme of the Qing Dynasty TV series is believed to be very popular with everyone, whether from the book or from the TV series, we know more or less about the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty was established from the Manchu Qing Dynasty to the end of the last dynasty, before and after a total of more than two hundred years, but often give people the illusion that he survived for at least five or six hundred years, the Qing Dynasty has a total of 12 emperors, including many cattle people, like Kang Yongqian's ancestors and grandchildren founded by three generations of "Kangqian Shengshi" has always been admired by future generations.
Take the wise Kangxi Emperor, who was the second emperor to enter the Qing Dynasty, and his grandmother was the famous Empress Xiaozhuang, who, under the influence of his grandmother, kangxi played a great role in the consolidation of the Qing Dynasty. In order to return power to his hands, he tolerated the courtiers in every way, accumulated strength, and accumulated thick hair. It was not an easy task to single-handedly eliminate the other henchmen of Ao Bai, after which he carried out the activities of Ping San Fan, firmly took power in his own hands, he personally went out to quell the Dzungar rebellion, Wen Tao Wuluo, and was a good emperor who was praised by posterity.
In short, the more than 60 years of Kangxi's reign have made outstanding contributions to the development of the Qing Dynasty, and he has maintained the prosperity and prosperity of the motherland. Some even called him the greatest emperor in the history of the Qing Dynasty, of course, in terms of Kangxi's merits, he was absolutely affordable. But today Xiaobian wants to tell you that the protagonist is not him, but the Guangxu Emperor who is also in the Qing Dynasty.
In the eyes of many people, the Guangxu Emperor was simply a failure in the history of the Qing Dynasty. There was no strength, no action, although he was an emperor, he had no real power in his hands, and the great power fell into the hands of Empress Dowager Cixi, who willingly became a puppet in their hands. In fact, in history, the Guangxu Emperor was not useless, and he was also very qualified to be called a virtuous prince. Although he reigned for a short time, in just over a decade, many of the policies he promulgated did not have a very good impact on the country, especially these two major policies, showing innocence, showing that if he was born at the right time, his ability to discuss political strategy, long-term vision, and comprehensive aspects should not be much worse than the Kangxi Emperor, whom everyone admired!
First of all, after the Sino-Japanese War, China signed a rather unfair treaty and compensated the local government with a large amount of money and land that belonged to it. The Guangxu Emperor also realized the seriousness of the matter, thinking that he could not just sit still and wait, he thought about it, becoming a relatively low status in China, not progressive in thought, in a weak state, after thinking about it again and again, he began to appoint talents on a large scale and carry out reforms. The vigorous restoration and reform of the law was held within the scope of his tenure. Speaking of his thinking, he was also very progressive, knowing that it was no good to stand still, so he often invited these advocates of changing the law to discuss major matters, and while the change of law was carried out, he also reorganized the army of the Qing Dynasty, and sure enough, it achieved miraculous results, and the combat effectiveness at that time was doubled, and the most admirable thing should be a series of policies he promoted in education, and the more than 200 years of closed-door closures ended here.
Second, he established what is now Peking University, and don't doubt that this is true, but the name at that time was different, and he provided many talents who could be shaped in China's modern history. It has to be admitted that at this point, the Guangxu Emperor made no small contribution to the development of China for future generations.
In fact, it is not difficult for us to see that Guangxu also wanted to save the Qing Dynasty from the depths of the water, and it was not that he did not resist, but the power of the Western Empress was too strong, and she could not overthrow him within the scope of her own ability, and her arms could not be twisted on her thighs, and finally she failed. But judging from his two great achievements, do you still simply think that he is just a king without thoughts and without ideas?
