The TV series "A Generation of Famous Ministers Chen Tingjing" continued to be popular on CCTV eight sets, and the contest between justice and evil between Chen Tingjing and Kangxi's powerful ministers Suo Ertu and Mingzhu made many viewers perceive the official right and wrong and the rule of officials behind the Kangxi prosperous world.

I watched the first two episodes and lamented Tao Zeru's version of Chen Tingjing's boldness and courage to forge ahead in spite of difficulties, but I also felt that this TV series with a historical positive theater face was a bit of a hard pull to string together many facts in the early kangxi period.

1. Before Chen Tingjing came out to take charge of the Capital Inspection Yuan, he was already a high-ranking official at the ministerial level, not a low-level attendant.

Chen Tingjing appeared in the background of the outbreak of disaster relief and greed in Liangjiang. Guo Xiu (郭琇), the imperial historian of Jiangnan Province, escaped death and reported to the disaster relief officials headed by Tang Bin, the inspector of Jiangsu, to exchange moldy rice for new rice. 100,000 taels of disaster relief silver were also intercepted by corrupt officials and corrupt officials.

In order to find out the case, Kangxi ordered Chen Tingjing, an imperial master and attendant of the Hanlin Academy, to serve as the minister of Zuo Du Yushi and Chincha, and went to Jiangning to investigate the case. Their opponent was the Bohol University Scholar Soetu. Kangxi was intimidated by the power of Soetu, and some of them were rat-throwers.

Press: Chen Tingjing twice served as the Left Governor of the Imperial Household, the first time in September of the twenty-third year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1684), and the previous position was the Right Attendant of the Bureaucracy, managing the Money Law of the Household Department, rather than the Attendant Designed in the play.

In the Qing Dynasty, "the cabinet is the head of the hundred officers, and the official of the Zhongshu Shishi" (Gong Zizhen's Complete Works, the fifth series of "Books of scholars"), the Hanlin Academy's attendant lecturer is from the Sipin, the ministry of literature and history is revised.

Chen Shi had been a bachelor of hanlin academy, but it was a matter of eight years of Kangxi. After that, he rose through the ranks, worked as a bachelor's attendant, and served as zhan shifu zhan shi in the fourteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty. Because of the appreciation of the Kangxi Emperor, from the fifteenth year of Kangxi, he successively served as a cabinet scholar and a feast lecturer, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, and was admitted to the South Study Room, the center of special power, and served as a household attendant in the twenty-second year of Kangxi.

In the play, from the bachelor of waiters to the royal history of Zuo Du, that is, the promotion of six levels in a row, that is, from four pins to from one pin, that is a great breakthrough promotion. Although this can highlight the Kangxi Emperor's special reliance on Mr. Chen, it seriously ignores the historical Chen Tingjing who came to power the general constitution and only rose one level, that is, before becoming the left capital of the imperial history, Chen Tingjing had been a deputy ministerial official for eight years (since the fifteenth year of Kangxi), rather than a clerical position such as a bachelor of honor, which was not yet a high-ranking official.

Second, Suo Etu was suppressed by Kangxi and was no longer the first assistant to the cabinet.

Before and after Chen Tingjing was appointed as the general constitution, Suo Etu was a scholar of the Bohol Temple and the first assistant of the cabinet. Kangxi also said that Mingzhu assisted Soetu in running the cabinet.

Press: In the Qing Dynasty, the cabinet was the government, and the university scholars were Zaifu, although there was no name for the prime minister, but because the cabinet ranked first among the six secretaries, they discussed the government of the world. Therefore, after the restoration of the cabinet system in the ninth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, in order to check and balance the Council of Ministers, the university scholars "praised the mechanism and set an example for the hundred officials" (Guangxu "Cases of the Great Qing Dynasty", vol. 14, "Cabinet IV").

Judging from the time when Chen Tingjing served as the general of the Constitution and rectified the discipline in September of the 23rd year of the Kangxi Dynasty, there were five university scholars in the cabinet at that time, namely Wang Xi of Bohol Hall University, Song Deyi, scholar of Wenhuadian University, and Mingzhu, Le Dehong, and Wu Zhengzhi of Wuyingdian University. At this time, the head of the cabinet was The Pearl of the Ping Dynasty of Kangxi, not the former Bohol Temple Scholar Suo Ertu.

At this time, Suo Etu, because of Kangxi's suspicion and suppression, stood aside.

In August of the nineteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, Suo Ertu resigned as a university scholar on the grounds of illness and was approved. Although Soetu was appointed minister of parliament and minister of the interior, in March of the 22nd year of the Kangxi Dynasty, the Kangxi Emperor publicly denounced: "Soetu is extremely rich, and the country is beyond reach, and he is arrogant and indulgent, and he does not change his mind when he is aggrieved." Among the ministers of the Dynasty, there is no one who is afraid. (Records of the Ancestors of the Qing Dynasty, vol. 108, Kangxi 22, March 22) Kangxi carried out a cliff-like treatment of Suo'etu, dismissing the Minister of Parliament, the Crown Prince, and the Minister of the Interior, leaving only the post of Zheng Sipinsa. It was not until August of the 25th year of the Kangxi Dynasty that Soetu was appointed minister of the Interior and returned to the center of power.

That is to say, when Chen Tingjing first took charge of the supervision system of the Qing Dynasty, Suo Etu was falling into Pingyang and could not become a big figure that Kangxi and Empress Xiaozhuang were jealous of.
