Many people feel strange that Zhang Tingyu has not made any political achievements, why is he favored by the Yongzheng Emperor, and even deserves such a special honor as the Taimiao Temple after his death? You must know that this is the only case among the Han courtiers in the entire Manchu Qing Dynasty! What virtue and what can he do? And the merits he has achieved cannot be said to be absent, but among the Han courtiers of the Qing Dynasty, if he is said to be the greatest, it is absolutely impossible to say.
Of course, it can also be seen from this that the emperor has extreme trust and great importance to him, why is this? The first is to put it in place. In fact, there are still many capable ministers under Yongzheng, such as Nian Qianyao and Long Keduo. But these people are not in the right position, and one by one they are pampered and proud. The Yongzheng Emperor obviously did not have such a good temper, and they naturally could only have a tragic ending.
Zhang Tingyu was completely different. Those "human subjects" that are regarded as classics in the official arena are simply pediatrics for him, because he not only learned to be rich in five cars, but also had a good family education. His father, Zhang Ying, can be said to be an old fritter in the official field, and he has long taught his children how to get along with the emperor as a courtier.
In fact, at the beginning, he and Nian Qianyao used to work together, and the relationship was good for this. But his father can be said to have read countless people, and immediately reminded his children not to mix with the "surname Nian" all day long, otherwise they would not know how to die at that time! With such a father's promotion and reminder, Zhang Tingyu naturally knows the way of it, and in front of the emperor, he shows a mature and stable side.
The second is that the cultural foundation is good. At that time, after the emperor transferred him to the South Study, he soon realized that his decision was really too wise. Because no matter what he said, as soon as the words fell here, Zhang Tingyu's side was finished recording! Presented to the emperor, not only did it not affect the beautiful handwriting because of the speed, but the content was almost never wrong. With this kind of ability that ordinary people do not have, it is difficult not to be valued by the boss.
There are many other advantages of him, such as UBM Qiangji. Whenever the emperor asked him about the resume of any official, he would open his mouth; at that time, there were more than 1,000 county orders in the world, and he knew exactly which county order the name was. This is simply a computer from the Qing Dynasty! With such a secretary on his side, the emperor handled government affairs, which was naturally handy. Not to mention that as a Han courtier, he was quite proficient in Manchu, so how could the emperor be willing to leave him?
The last is not to love vanity. In fact, this is easy to say, but it is too difficult to do. As a courtier, he was able to do all his own hard work, and all the credit was the emperor's. No matter how big or small, he never made a decision, but only faithfully carried out the emperor's orders. For this reason, after the emperor naturally died, he still wanted to take him to his side, probably to let him serve himself in the Yin Cao Prefecture.
