Of course, the book is basically full of praise for Kangxi, which is also a common problem for the outside world to evaluate the February River Emperor series. Even these emperors in the Qing dynasty were described as saints and good people, who only cared about the country and the people all day. Emperor Kangxi of February River is a novel with romantic and playful elements, so although it has this defect, it is not enough to go deep into it, so it is just for fun and fun.
So I learned that the novel Kangxi the Great is basically a positive description. After reading the historical materials, I found many shortcomings of Kangxi, especially his private life, which was ridiculous.
Among the emperors in the history of our country, Emperor Kangxi was the most prolific in the history of China, with 52 babies in his life! This is rare, and it has more powerful reproductive ability than animals. Kangxi was strong when he was young, and even in his later years, he was as strong as ever, and his name of debauchery was unparalleled.
Zhang is the younger brother of Emperor Kangxi Zhang, and he is an official in Beijing. At that time, there was another official of the Han Dynasty, Yao Shi, who was married for two generations. Zhang's wife, at that time, was called the national beauty and fragrance. Among China officials in Beijing, her beauty is the first among their wives and concubines, and Zhang is not satisfied. One year, the Queen Mother celebrated her birthday, and the imperial edict was sent to the palace with Manchu officials. So Yao's wives dressed up and dressed in royal robes followed the crowd into the palace to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday. Kangxi was there when he arrived. The queen mother was very happy, so she gave a banquet in the imperial palace to let these people eat, drink and have fun in the palace for a day before dispersing.
After leaving the palace, these young ladies left with their original shoulder straps. Except for one family, everyone else is safe and sound. At that time, it was said that a wife came back with the same clothes, but this person was unrecognizable, disheveled and uneasy, and was not the original person at all. Although the Yao family in Zhang Jiahe knew what had happened, they were afraid of disaster and were afraid to tell anyone. As a result, the case of Han officials ordering women to enter the palace stopped.
In the twenty-third year of Kangxi, Kangxi thought that the grand harem was too small to accommodate his dissolute life, so he made use of the remaining water vein rocks in Tsinghua campus to build a luxurious detached palace on its former site, which was named:? Changchun Garden? As a place where he had fun and affairs in the suburbs. Since then, he often mixed with women and eunuchs to fool around and indulge himself. Changchun Garden was destroyed by British and French allied forces.
Kangxi was the dissolute emperor with the largest number of harem women in the ancient history of China. After Kangxi's death, due to the large number of women in the harem, Yongzheng once issued a decree to officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, ordering them to handle the issue of Kangxi's "harem widow" carefully. There is a passage in the imperial edict that says: Today, the general manager and others have played a role in changing people's lives. It seems that this person can enter the mausoleum. Mausoleum is related to the land of feng shui, so you should consider it carefully in the future, such as the nobles who served in the imperial examination. It is not allowed if it is often sealed.
Not only that, but foreigners can't stand it. This foreigner is Ma Guoxian, and Ma Guoxian was an Italian missionary in China in the18th century. The missionary wrote Thirteen Years of the Qing Dynasty. Because there may be domestic historical materials? For respectable people? But this Thirteen Years of the Qing Court was written by foreigners, and foreigners, especially Europeans, soon advocated freedom of speech and natural human rights. Naturally, the authenticity of the contents recorded in it must be greatly reliable.
According to Ma Guoxian's records, the real image of Kangxi can be described by the destruction of three views.
On one occasion, Ma Guoxian and Kangxi went to the Jehol Summer Resort together. He had the courage to pierce enough paper and witnessed a series of absurd court games. In Jehol Summer Resort, I live in a house with a small garden by the lake. On the other side of the lake is a villa. Tatar monarchs often have some women to accompany them and play games there. Through the hole in the paper window, I saw the Tatar monarch having fun. Sometimes, the Tatar monarch sits high in his throne-like seat and watches his favorite games.
Several eunuchs stood by, and a group of concubines gathered on the carpet in front of the throne. Suddenly, the Tatar monarch threw fake snakes, toads and other disgusting little animals among his concubines. They limped and ran away, and the Tatar monarch laughed. Sometimes, the Tatar monarch pretends to want the fruit that grows on the tree and asks his concubine to pick it on the nearby mountain. At his urging, the poor cripples rushed to the mountain, shouting and running, so that some fell to the ground, which made him laugh.
The Tatar monarch keeps creating such games, especially on cool nights in summer. Emperor Tatar here refers to Kangxi. It is worth noting that Kangxi teased all the lame women in the game. As we all know, women of Manchu Eight Banners and Korean Eight Banners do not bind their feet, so naturally they have no feet. The women who play games with Kangxi should all be Han Chinese. However, according to the regulations of the imperial court, the Manchu emperor would never marry a woman other than the Eight Banners.
These so-called concubines are actually Han folk women for Kangxi to play with. According to textual research, in his later years, Kangxi suddenly became interested in gentle and intellectual women in the south of the Yangtze River, and Jehol and Changchun Garden became excellent places for Kangxi to hide in the Golden House. Professor Yang Zhen from China Academy of Social Sciences came to a conclusion. Fifty years after Kangxi (17 1 1 year), Han people had an advantage over women related to Kangxi at this stage. They are not the Eight Banners of the Han Army, but all Jiangnan women.
