Among the many emperors of the Qing Dynasty, the Shunzhi Emperor was not considered to have done anything. In the eyes of posterity, the Shunzhi Emperor is an emperor who only loves beauty and does not love Jiangshan, and his love with Dong Efei makes many people sigh, The Shunzhi Emperor is an infatuated emperor, and he does not want Jiangshan for the sake of beauty.
However, the Shunzhi Emperor was also a good emperor. At the age of 14, he had already begun to pro-government with the assistance of the regent Dolgun, and later gradually expanded his power by weakening Dorgon's power, maintaining centralized power, retaining loyal officials for the Qing Dynasty at that time, and promoting the development of history.
In one draft, Dong Eshi, daughter of the Manchu Minister of the White Banner, Eshuo, was selected to enter the palace. Dong Eshi was chosen to marry Shunzhi's half-brother Bogol, and in 1654 the two married, Dong Eshi was 16 years old, two years older than her husband.
Bogol went out with the army many times, and Dong E's family often guarded the empty house alone, resulting in the two getting together less and more, and the days together were also contradictory because of personality incompatibility.
Shunzhi's empress at this time, borjigit, was set by Xiaozhuang, and Shunzhi did not like the Borjigit clan, and at this time met Dong Eshi, whose husband always went out to fight, and the two could not help but have a relationship with each other.
In his short life, the Shunzhi Emperor married a total of 19 wives and concubines, but his favorite was Dong Efei, who died because of the pain of losing his son, and the favorite person who the Shunzhi Emperor lost his son was a great blow to him, and even sought death and life.
The Shunzhi Emperor believed in Buddhism very much, and the death of Concubine Dong made the Shunzhi Emperor collapse in his heart, resolutely saw through the red dust, and decided to become a monk. When Yulin Xuan learned of this detail, he ordered the monks to burn Mao Xisen, who was going to shave for the Shunzhi Emperor at that time, and the Shunzhi Emperor had to cancel the plan to become a monk in order to save the monk.
Xiao Zhuang also persuaded the Shunzhi Emperor that the most important thing in cultivation is to cultivate the heart, and to save the world is the greatest practice, and the Shunzhi Emperor had no choice but to continue to be the emperor.
This also leads to a classic legend:
Legend has it that at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was an old monk who lived in seclusion at the peak of Mount Emei. The old monk did not go down the mountain all year round, did not eat, did not drink water, closed his eyes and meditated. There was a little monk following him. One day, the old monk suddenly opened his eyes and said to his disciple, "I'm leaving, you stay here, don't go down the mountain." When the disciple heard this, he held the old monk's clothes and cried.
The old monk exhorted, "Don't be sad, we still have one day to meet with our master and disciple." The old monk gave his portrait and said, "After I left, after twelve years, you went down the mountain to look for me, and when you saw someone, you took out the painting and showed it to him."
If someone helps you paint your eyebrows for a portrait, that person is me. After the explanation, the old monk drifted away.
The little monk traveled for more than ten years, traveling all over the world looking for the master, but he never found it. Once, when he was shocked by the emperor' driving, he saw the emperor, and when he compared the portrait, he fell to his knees and shouted, "Master, I can find you." "
The Shunzhi Emperor suddenly realized: It turned out that his previous life was an old monk of Mount Emei! No wonder there are always thoughts of monasticism.
