After the death of Emperor Daoguang, the young Aisingiorro found that there was still a big crisis in front of him, that is, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement that began in the first year of Xianfeng (185 1)!
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom not only conquered Jiangning (now Nanjing, Jiangsu Province) in the third year of Xianfeng (1853), but also renamed Tianjing, making its capital here. In the following 1 1 years, it swept through most of the territory, especially in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, a financial center in the Qing Dynasty, causing very serious damage.
In June of the third year of Tongzhi (1864), Hong Xiuquan, a king who had been addicted to the deep palace for many years, died of illness, and Tianguifu Hong, a young king who was only 16 years old, succeeded to the throne. After more than a month, Tianjing was breached by Xiang, and the young man broke through under the escort of loyal Li Xiucheng and others and began his exile.
In June 5438+10, the hungry and thirsty young king Tianguifu Hong was captured by the Qing army in the barren hill of Shicheng, Jiangxi.
In order to survive, Tianguifu Hong left many personal narratives and confessions in the Qing army barracks, during his escort and in Nanchang, Jiangxi.
Yue sorted out the warlords presented by these young kings to the Qing court, and found that apart from the jaw-dropping cowardice, ignorance and servility, the secrets of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and Hong Xiuquan were rarely uncovered.
The self-report of the young king Tianguifu Hong (1)
Yue Comments: In this self-report, the young king tells the fate of his father, brother and uncle after the fall of Tianjing, as well as the handlers and general process of his escape, which shows how tragic it is!
Among them, "Eighty-eight Wives" tore a corner of the palace door of the heavenly king Hong Xiuquan;
Thousands of Kings shows that the knight system in Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is rampant.
The funniest thing is the parrot's lyrics: Dad is a mountain or a river, always sitting, always sitting to help the baby. This sentence expresses the heart of the heavenly king Hong Xiuquan in Hakka dialect: I hope that the land he laid will always be enjoyed by the young heavenly king Tianguifu Hong and his descendants. How ironic and absurd it is to combine historical facts!
The young king Tianguifu Hong's readme (2)
Yue Comments: In the second self-report, the young Heavenly King also reviewed his educational experience, but the so-called textbooks he read were rarely Confucian classics, and they were basically compiled by Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan. It was useless to read them. As for ancient books, they were all dismissed as "demon books" by Hong Xiuquan.
In addition, Tianguifu Hong, a young king aged 16, also revealed his family: he had four wives. Old men and women can skip here.
Tianguifu Hong, the young heavenly king, personally wrote "Please pay tribute to the format of this chapter" and the "hymn" of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
Yue Comments: Worship four times a day. Presumably, Tianguifu Hong, the young heavenly king, is very impressed, and his content is very grounded: high-frequency words such as "boy", "father" and "rest assured" are also psychological hints.
It's really hard to read the word "hymn" in one breath!
Send three poems of Tang Dynasty to my brother.
Yue Comments: Jia Zi, on the fourth day of October, the young king gave Tang three sincere and funny limerick poems.
Tang was an official who was ordered to escort to Nanchang. Obviously, in the process of escort, Tang successfully cheated and regarded him as a trustworthy person.
Tianguifu Hong, like ordinary Qing people, dismissed the Taiping Army, calling it "long hair", and expressed his determination to quit completely with "hard heart" and "many dangers". After that, he followed Tang home to "test the scholar". This young king's posture is really low!
In the second poem, Tianguifu Hong expressed his loyalty to the Qing Dynasty and regarded the Taiping Army, including himself, as a "traitor". Don's brainwashing skills are at least the master's level.
The third poem is a thank-you letter to Tang, indicating that he will be a "respected" and grateful brother. This life-saving straw is really hard to praise when it is caught!
Tianguifu Hong provided a copy.
Yue Comments: In the confession of the young heavenly king, he reviewed the situation of his parents and brothers, gave a detailed account of the process of his succession, and his subsequent escape after the death of the heavenly king Hong Xiuquan, as well as some palace secrets.
Among them, Hong Xiuquan's "often eating cold" and "taking centipedes as food" are even more unacceptable to ordinary people.
Tianguifu Hong "was hungry for four days in the mountains and met a man in white who didn't need a long body". Obviously, he was so hungry that he had hallucinations.
And the phrase "Mother kowtows to me" really can't understand the etiquette of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Strange!
Tianguifu Hong provided a copy of the book.
Yue Comments: This confession was written by the young heavenly king in Jiangxi Governor's Office, and it was also the last confession before his death. In addition to reviewing the details of his family background and the results of his escape from the throne, he also expressed his responsibility to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and his future.
Specifically, Hong Xiuquan gave his son Tianguifu Hong "four wives" when he was 9 years old, and then he was not allowed to see his "mother and sister", which was very puzzling and cruel.
"That is what the old king did, and it has nothing to do with me. Even after reaching the extreme, it was dry king and loyal king. " In two words, Tianguifu Hong pushes his responsibility clean. He is also a wayward little brother.
It is "true" that I am still deeply tied to Master Tang for my future, and pursuing progress depends on taking an examination of scholars.
However, the reality is cruel. Shen Baozhen, then the governor of Jiangxi Province, said after learning that Tianguifu Hong was arrested: "Hongfutang (wrongly called Tianguifu Hong by the Qing court), a yellow-tongued child, is not careful enough. However, Hong Xiuquan is over ten years old and has poisoned more than a dozen provinces, and his legacy is still there. Then the traitor relies on his name to summon a group of murderers. " Therefore, Tianguifu Hong's tragedy was doomed from the beginning.
After three years of tongzhi (1864)18 10/8, Tianguifu Hong was ordered to be executed by Shen Baozhen during the year. Teenager, still too naive!
