In addition, Kangxi personally mentioned the "Happy Green" plaque, praising Yu Chenglong and his contribution to the country and people. It can be seen that he is really an honest and clean official, and Heri, a Manchu aristocrat and nephew of Kangxi, is even more out of reach. In real history, will the scenes in TV series happen? Let's talk about Yu Chenglong first.
A generation of honest officials always cherish the people in their hearts.
16 17 years, Emperor Wanli became more and more tired of the affairs of state affairs, and the national strength of the Ming Dynasty also took a sharp turn and slowly declined. Corruption in Korean politics is becoming more and more common, officials take care of each other, and the people are miserable. In the face of dark officialdom, Yu Chenglong seems to have waves in his heart, and he is eager to change this situation through his own ability.
But who knows, corruption in the Ming dynasty has reached its roots. 1639, Yu Chenglong went to Taiyuan to take the imperial examination that year. In the examination room, the examiner openly took bribes and helped others cheat. Seeing this, Yu Chenglong was filled with anger. With a stroke of his pen, he freely expressed his views on the current dark situation and expressed his ambitions.
But at that time, after all, it was not the Ming Dynasty in the past. Yu Chenglong had no choice but to fall into Sun Shan. Although some officials regretted his talent and asked him to take the exam as a candidate, Yu Chenglong was disheartened and finally returned to China under the pretext.
After the Qing army entered the customs, he took part in the imperial examination. After his failure, he entered imperial academy to study. 166 1 year, 44-year-old Yu Chenglong got the opportunity to be a county magistrate in Luocheng county. The local land is barren, the people do not have enough to eat all the year round, and bandits are rampant in the city, often robbing the people of their money.
Therefore, the first thing Yu Chenglong did after taking office was to decide to vigorously eliminate bandits. In this process, Yu Chenglong left his own life and went to Miao Village alone to persuade the other side to destroy the evil bandits. Finally, with his efforts, Luocheng County recovered its former calm.
Yu Chenglong continued to get promoted, and Emperor Kangxi praised him.
Now that the bandits have been eliminated, the next step is to resume development. "There is a clear sky on the head, and things are justified. At present, the land is barren and it is intended to rule with the people. " This is the couplet he wrote in the office. In life, he praised hard-working farmers and often rewarded them. His son came from thousands of miles away to visit him, but he was treated with carrots and vegetables to make him clean and loved by the people.
Under his leadership, Luocheng County has developed rapidly. 1667, Yu Chenglong was promoted to Zhizhou, Hezhou, Sichuan, and was promoted again two years later. Because of outstanding achievements, 1673 was promoted again and transferred to Wuchang to preside over Wuchang government affairs. In the same year, the "San Francisco Rebellion" broke out in various parts of Hubei.
At that time, in order to create riots, Wu Sangui specially sealed the official "miscellaneous books" to deal with officials. Unexpectedly, the situation changed and "pseudo-miscellaneous books" appeared. The reception officials were arrested at random, and everyone was in danger at that time. Liu and his son from Macheng County took the opportunity to start an uprising.
After finding out the cause and effect, he first posted a notice to ease the situation, then went to the thief's den alone to persuade Liu regardless of his personal safety, and finally calmed down the unrest within ten days.
1678, Yu Chenglong was promoted to Fujian provincial judge and governor of Zhili two years later. Emperor Kangxi summoned him, called him "the first upright official" and presented him with poems to show his favor. Subsequently, Yu Chenglong was transferred to the post of Governor of Liangjiang.
The status gap is so great that Yu Chenglong can't cope with Hurley in real history.
"Bread crumbs and chaff mixed in rice are porridge and eaten with the same servant", which is the normal life in Yu Chenglong. 1684, Yu Chenglong died at the age of 68, and was still trying the case before his death.
On the day of the funeral, countless people and soldiers fell to the ground crying, and even the sound of running water in the river was drowned. Emperor Kangxi personally wrote an inscription for him. Posthumous title's "Qingrui" commemorates his honesty and hard work all his life.
But even so, compared with Hurley's prominent position, Yu Chenglong could not dispose of him. Henry is a Manchu aristocrat. At that time, Emperor Kangxi's nephew, only Kangxi dared to treat him like this. Even though Yu Chenglong is excellent and has a high official position, he is a close minister after all, and he cannot stand shoulder to shoulder with the royal family. Even the minister of punishments, who was in charge of criminal law at that time, had to be polite to Henry.
So even if Yu Chenglong really wanted to kill Hurley, he basically ruined his career, and it is likely to bring trouble to the family. It's just a sentence from Kangxi. In addition, in reality, soldiers have no right to enter Hurley's residence at all. He lives in the whole city and is surrounded by the Eight Banners. It is difficult to break through this defense. Therefore, for comprehensive reasons, this event can still be fictional in TV series, but it will never happen in real history.
