Chapter 371 Virtue is not matched

"The court officials did nothing, had no spirit and sense of responsibility, but they also encountered the world hegemon the British Empire to make trouble, causing the Qing Dynasty's international status to plummet."

"However, fortunately, he did not encounter the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement, if he saw the Qing Army's Eight Banners and Green Camp being violently beaten by a group of worshippers with primitive weapons, it is estimated that he will die without turning a blind eye."

"After the death of Emperor Daoguang, his son Emperor Xianfeng succeeded to the throne, which is the last emperor with real power in the Qing Dynasty."

"To say that this Emperor Xianfeng is also a mediocre person, but he has met a good teacher, who is a bit similar to Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, and he is very good at pretending."

Li Longji: This is another one who plays filial piety and coaxes Lao Tzu?

"In fact, Emperor Xianfeng is not as good as Emperor Yang of Sui, one is at least really strong in civil and military affairs, and the other is not good at everything!"

"This Emperor Xianfeng is similar to Yang Yong and Yang Guang, because at the beginning, this throne really didn't plan to be given to Emperor Xianfeng."

"Xianfeng's biological mother is the famous Empress Xiaoquancheng, and the mediocre Daoguang Emperor loves this woman the most in his life."

"Most of the women around Daoguang are simple and straightforward minority women like Concubine Jing of the Borzigit clan, who regard themselves as noble."

"Only the concubine is familiar with calligraphy and painting, and she has a gentle temperament and is empathetic."

"But from a lower background."

Liu Xiu: ?? Did I hear it wrong? What kind of hobby is this, and the talented prefer?

Liu Bang: The emperor is mediocre, his own woman is too smart, you let him put his face there!

Li Jing: Everyone has their own hobbies!

"Turnip greens, each with his own love! Perhaps, in Emperor Daoguang's heart, such a woman can satisfy his machismo. ”

"Daoguang can be mediocre, and every time you have troubles, you can only be understood and relieved by complaining to them."

"Over time, affection is connected."

"Concubine Quan gave birth to Xianfeng, but Concubine Jing of the advanced palace died of her eldest son, and it was a long time before she gave birth to the famous Prince Gong."

"And the emperor has made the concubine the queen."

"Concubine Jing is very hateful, but her position has been decided, but she is helpless."

"At this time, as long as there are no accidents, Xianfeng will be the future emperor."

"But the accident came - Empress Xiao Quancheng died of illness!"

"The young Xianfeng was sent to Concubine Jing's palace to be raised, I think that Queen Xiao Quancheng sent him directly to Concubine Jing in order to protect her son's safety, then her son Xianfeng and Concubine Jing will be both prosperous and lossy, and Concubine Jing can only protect Xianfeng and not cause harm."

"After the death of Empress Xiao Quancheng, Daoguang's feelings for her did not diminish, and he did not set up Concubine Jing as the queen."

"Concubine Jing's position has always been lower than that of Empress Xiao Quancheng, so Xianfeng and Prince Gong have been different from each other until they ascended the throne."

"Yang Yong and Yang Guang are about the same as these two."

"Compared with the Qin, Han, Tang and Song dynasties, the Qing Dynasty has a more advanced system, that is, the secret reserve."

"Although the system of secret reserve is not the most advanced, in feudal society, this is the most advanced way to establish reserves, and there is no one."

"The reason why the crown prince was secretly determined was because the Qing Dynasty had an advanced concept of succession."

"The throne is passed on to those who are both talented and virtuous among the princes."

"In other words, the Qing Dynasty is different from the previous dynasty, even in peacetime, if the prince wants to inherit the throne, it is not enough to be reincarnated faster."

"Reincarnating in the emperor's house can only mean that you have qualified for the competition, but it cannot guarantee that you will win at the starting line."

"Xianfeng's name is Yi Ling, he is only one year older than Yi, but his talent is slightly mediocre than Yi."

"Although Yi is second, he is Ming Min and capable, so who to choose as the heir, the first emperor Daoguang made a difficulty."

"Daoguang thought of a way to inform them to go to Nanyuan to ride and shoot and further examine them."

"At this time, I would like to thank Emperor Xianfeng's clever teacher - Du Shoutian."

"Du Shoutian knows that in the two compulsory subjects of the emperor's entrance exam, Emperor Xianfeng was completely defeated."

"These two exams, one is called Tiao Chen Shizheng, and the other is called horseback riding and martial arts."

"If you go to participate in mounted archery, you will definitely not be able to win, since Xianfeng can't win in the explicit subjects, then you can only make a fuss in the implicit subjects."

"As for whether you can succeed or not, this is not something that can be decided by a teacher, it depends on the arrangement of destiny."

"What is this implicit subject?"

"Virtue!"

"The emperor's children are different from the people's children, and the filial piety of the people's children is relatively easy to measure."

"The children of the common people, your children have one or two silver, and take out half of them for treatment, and they must say that this child is filial, even if he gives the old man some flowers, he will praise filial piety, and if the royal family can't measure it by money."

"Because you take Lao Tzu's money to honor Lao Tzu, this is not counted."

"And how does the royal family measure it?"

"It depends on his virtue, whether he is worthy of the position or not."

"Yi Ling's teacher Du Shoutian knew that this was a critical moment, so he gave his disciple an idea, saying that your riding and archery skills are far inferior to your younger brother, and we can only find another way."

"So when hunting, Xianfeng followed his teacher's teachings, neither on horses nor on archery, and when he saw his father, he was empty-handed."

Daoguang was puzzled and asked, what's the matter with you?"

"Xianfeng knelt on the ground, and he said that my father taught me to be benevolent, and now it is spring, and the mother beast is pregnant, and I am going to shoot it to death, and even its unborn child is dead, isn't it too cruel."

When Daoguang heard this, he felt that this kid was very kind and satisfied with him.

"Another time, Daoguang was not in good health, so he summoned the two children to listen to their views on national politics, and Du Shoutian gave Yi Ling another idea."

"Daoguang saw the sixth elder brother first, and said that I am not in good health, and I may die soon, how can the country be governed?"

"Yi is very eloquent, and he talks endlessly about the strategy of governing the country, and his father is very happy, saying that this child has a future, you should step back first."

"When Yi Ling came in, when he saw his father's sick face, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed and cried, unable to say a word."

"Daoguang said, let you talk about your opinions, why don't you say anything?"

"Xianfeng said, when I saw my father sick like this, I was so uncomfortable, I couldn't say anything, I hope my father is healthy and long-lived, and I don't want anything else."

"Daoguang was very moved, or this child is filial, so he decided to pass on the throne to him."

In fact, Yi Ling behaved like this because his teacher told him that you are not as good as the sixth elder brother in terms of eloquence, and you have to "hide your clumsiness and show filial piety". ”

"Yiling's final victory is actually related to the teacher's teaching, and it is also related to Daoguang's preference."

"It's not a faint monarch, but a mediocre monarch, lacking the courage, ability, and insight into the current situation, a rule-abiding emperor, a little overly cautious, and very lacking in stereotype."

Yang Guang: I'm pretending, I'm pretending to be nothing, isn't it just treating my father and the emperor, I'm really better than my eldest brother in terms of riding and shooting, how can this Xianfeng Emperor pretend better than me?
