introduction
As the last feudal dynasty in Chinese history, the Qing Dynasty itself has many controversial issues. Some people believe that this period of the Qing Dynasty can be regarded as laying the foundation of the current Chinese territory, some people believe that the existence of the Qing Dynasty has had a huge negative impact on China's development, and some people believe that the Qing Dynasty, as a minority regime, is not right. The late Qing Dynasty did show considerable incompetence, which also attracted many criticisms of the Qing Dynasty. Today, regardless of the various suffocation operations done by the Qing Dynasty at that time, if someone mentions that the Qing Dynasty royal family Aixin Jue Luo is the descendant of Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty, will many people find it quite strange?
It is not for nothing that people have such a statement, first of all, we still have to understand the situation of the Song Dynasty. As a feudal dynasty founded by Zhao Kuangyin, the Song Dynasty also occupies a considerable part in the history of Chinese culture. Although it is said that the military strength of the Song Dynasty is not good, it is a conclusive fact that the economy and people's livelihood were stable during the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Kuangyin's story
Zhao Kuangyin was born in a military family, and he liked to dance knives and stick and hone martial arts skills. On the one hand, Zhao Kuangyin does have talent, on the other hand, he is also continuing to exercise, so when he was very young, Zhao Kuangyin was already excellent in martial arts. At the same time, Zhao Kuangyin's own brain was also quite bright, and he did things quite well, and later he also assisted an emperor to ascend the throne and became a close confidant of this emperor. Later, the emperor's health deteriorated every day, and he was also considering finding a successor.
However, the emperor's son is only seven years old, and it is definitely not appropriate for him to ascend the throne as emperor now, unless someone can assist him, and the most capable and trustworthy person is of course Zhao Kuangyin. After the death of the old emperor, Zhao Kuangyin did dutifully assist the little emperor, but over time, Zhao Kuangyin, who held great power, gradually had the idea of replacing the little emperor. However, the direct seizure of power is unstable among the people, and Zhao Kuangyin wants to achieve his goal, and he must first buy people's hearts.
Zhao Kuangyin's ability is indeed very strong, he bought many people's hearts in a short period of time, and also let himself get the support of many people. Under the circumstance that the situation developed in his favor, Zhao Kuangyin later let the emperor abdicate and become emperor himself, starting the Song Dynasty. Fortunately, Zhao Kuangyin was relatively diligent after becoming the emperor, and he governed the country quite well, which really allowed him to firmly sit on the throne.
History of the Qing Dynasty
After talking about the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin, we have to look at the story of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. According to historical records, the ruling class of the Qing Dynasty is the original Jurchen people, which has a considerable relationship with the former Jin State. The founder of the Qing Dynasty was named Aisin Juelo Nurhach, and Aisin Juelo as his surname, which later became the national surname of the royal family of the Great Qing Kingdom. As for the origin of such a surname as Aisin Kyoro, what is the matter?
Also according to historical records, the Jurchens have never paid much attention to their surnames, so they are more casual. The surname Aisin Kyoro was originally pieced together with his own clan name and surname, so in this way, "Aixin" in Aisin Gola is the name of the Jurchen tribe, and "Kyaw Luo" should be the surname. Nurhachi had a hard time in his early childhood, his mother died early, and his stepmother treated him badly, starving him at every turn.
It was under such circumstances that Nurhach, who was still very young at the time, could only search for wild vegetables to feed himself, and this hard life really tempered his will. Later, when he grew up, Nurhachi saw the decline of the Ming Dynasty's national strength, so he found a reason called "seven hatreds" to carry out an armed rebellion, and successfully seized power, and became the leader of the entire Jurchen tribe.
After the establishment of the Qing Dynasty, Nur Hachi was also a very diligent emperor, who has been working tirelessly for the development of the Qing Dynasty, and can be regarded as laying a stable foundation for subsequent Qing emperors. Now that you think about it, the first emperors of each dynasty were basically quite capable, and they were also quite diligent and virtuous. However, as the times progressed, later emperors may lose their fighting spirit and greed for pleasure, and the decline of the dynasty began.
The relationship between the Song Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty
Although the establishment of the Song Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty is quite different, this does not prevent many people from thinking that the Song Dynasty royal family is the ancestor of the Qing Dynasty royal family. There are hundreds of years between the two dynasties, even the ethnicity and surname are different, why do these people think so? Where is the relationship between the Song Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty? According to the historical records we have now, the connection between the Song Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty arose during the Song Huizong period.
Song Huizong was also very diligent and capable when he first became emperor, and he was completely a wise monarch. But later, he gradually felt that his country did not seem to have any big problems, so why did he need to work so hard? It's better to enjoy life. And Song Huizong's enjoyment is not finished, he does not solve various things in the imperial court, and the crisis of the Song Dynasty becomes more and more serious. Later, when the Jin Kingdom attacked the Song Dynasty, Song Huizong realized that something was wrong, but it was too late, and he also became a prisoner.
After being captured by the Jin people, Song Huizong originally thought that his life might have to be accounted for here, who knew that the Jin people were actually good to him, and after a long time, Song Huizong was at ease to live here. During the period of time that Song Huizong was captured, he gave birth to a full 21 daughters, and given Song Huizong's status as a captive, the fate of these daughters was also quite miserable. Nine of them were caught in brothels by the Jinguo people, and were chosen by the Jurchens to play with, and finally became pregnant.
epilogue
After these children were born, they were able to escape a tragic fate because of their Jurchen blood. Later, these children also stayed in the local area, and some of them also became the ancestors of the later Aisin Kyaw Roche. Of course, this matter is not good to say, so Nurhachi does not admit it at all, but only says that he is a pure-blood Jurchen.
If the development of history really follows such a situation, it is no wonder that some people say that Aixin Jue Luo is a descendant of Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty, but it is too tragic and difficult to talk about. As for the true identity and bloodline of Ai Xin Jue Luo, it still needs to be investigated and collected through more scientific evidence.
