Since Qin Shihuang established the first feudal dynasty in ancient Chinese history . Later dynasties have always used Qin dynasty as the benchmark , continuing feudal autocratic rule .
The benefits of this method of rule are very obvious. Chinese civilization can thrive under the national protection umbrella .
may also have obvious disadvantages. When the power is highly concentrated, because of a person, or a small group, the development of countries will easily regress backwards. Later generations often need to work harder to as much as possible to pull back to 's regular track .
In Chinese history, there were three sinners, Cixi , An Lushan , Qin Hui . Not only did they not make any contribution to the dynasty in their period, but they caused the entire country to suffer huge losses.
Cixi can be regarded as the "most hateful" of the three. The signing of countless treaties that lost power and humiliated the country, the entire Qing Dynasty and the entire Chinese civilization suffered huge humiliation .
And An Lushan is not far away. is enough to reverse Chinese civilization for hundreds of years because of him.
Cixi
As the biological mother of Tongzhi Emperor Zaichun , after Xianfeng Emperor died, Cixi successfully became one of the actual power in the harem.
Then, in conjunction with Empress Dowager Ci'an , and Prince Gong Yi Xin launched the Xinyou coup , killing all the eight ministers Guru , forming a pattern of "two palaces are behind the curtains, and the prince discusses politics" .
But at this time, Cixi was still not satisfied. Using " Jiashen Yishu ", dismissed Prince Gong Yixin, and achieved the true meaning of as the leader, and firmly focused the Qing dynasty in her hands.
However, she had great power, but Cixi did not think about how to lead the Qing Dynasty and develop better. She didn't care about the shame suffered during the period of Daoguang and Xianfeng .
For her, it would be enough to be able to enjoy life as much as possible with the power in her hands. It is precisely because of her that when the Qing Dynasty faced the great powers, could not raise its head .
The most hateful thing is that even if the ministers want to ask for change, Cixi would never agree to .
Finally, under her extreme confusion, the Qing Dynasty completely embarked on the road of no return to . During the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the military expenditure used for the front-line battle of the Beiyang Navy was misappropriated as her money to celebrate the 60th birthday of . How could such a leader win an already dangerous war?
" Treaty of Shimonoseki " was signed, which also changed China from a feudal society to an semi-feudal semi-colonial society , and even the ambition of the great powers invading China again.
Cixi , personally delivered the cake of the Qing Dynasty to the dining table of the great powers .
describes her as eternal sinner , and there is no mistake at all. Especially after returned to power in Guangxu , Cixi actually launched the coup at the critical moment of Hundred Days Reform , imprisoning Guangxu, causing the Qing Dynasty to fall into the abyss again .
For power, Cixi was too crazy and really hateful. Even if she did nothing and just died quietly in the harem, the Qing Dynasty might not have been stubborn after being humiliated again and again.
An Lushan
An Lushan , which is deeply trusted by Tang Xuanzong , is the same, because the Anshi Rebellion , which he launched not only seriously affected the development of Chinese civilization, but also changed the ideology of Chinese civilization.
Before the Anshi Rebellion, Tang Dynasty showed the attitude of welcome to all ethnic groups in the world. No matter what country or nation comes to the Tang Dynasty, they will feel the prosperity and tolerance of the Tang Dynasty. This is a country's capital and a country's pride.
KeAfter the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty was in chaos in .The development of the Tang Dynasty was seriously affected by the second. What is more important is that the Chinese civilization of has become closed to other civilizations and no longer accepted them. Even even ideology tends to be conservative.
The reason is very simple. Every subsequent dynasty was afraid that things like Anshi Rebellion would happen again. is not my race, and his heart will be different. An Lushan taught everyone a lesson, who dares to take risks in ?
It was also from this period that the curve of Chinese civilization and Western civilization changed. Western civilization is rising, while Chinese civilization gradually stagnates.
Although Chinese civilization still has the absolute advantage of for a long time in the future, has no way to compare with Western civilization.
This also led to the beautiful fantasy of the Celestial Empire during the later During the Western Industrial Revolution.
Qin Hui
Compared with the first two sinners, Qin Hui a small role.
is just "The green mountains are fortunate to bury loyal bones, and the white iron is innocent to cast slanderous ministers"
still makes people hate him to the core. Originally, Yue Fei had achieved a comprehensive victory and had recovered a large area of mountains and rivers.
, Qin Hui and Song Gaozong plan each other, not only wiped out all the achievements of Yue Fei, but also killed Yue Fei himself to death, in order to survive in the Song Dynasty.
For Song Gaozong Zhao Gou , Qin Hui was not wrong. The two of them have the same community of interests as , and neither of them wants Yue Fei to really " welcome back to the two saints".
After all, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong After the return of Song Gaozong, how should he deal with himself? This will inevitably threaten his existing status.
But for the Song Dynasty, Qin Hui was indeed a sinner for the ages. If he could support Yue Fei and think of a better way to convince Song Gaozong, helped Song Gaozong to retain the throne, while also being able to recover the Song Dynasty and wash away the shame of Jing Kang , will never use innocent to satirize it.
