Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement gives people the feeling of being a very twisted result. Whether it is from its country name or some place names it has changed, or from its behavior and actions, we feel a twist that is inconsistent at all times and everywhere. The peasant rebel army led by Hong Xiuquan established the emerging regime of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom , a regime that should be able to overthrow the Qing government. Unfortunately, this twisted regime claimed to its officers and soldiers that the Qing Dynasty was a broken house, and with a light kick, it could overthrow the Qing Dynasty.
On the other hand, they armed their officers and soldiers with religion, claiming that they were an invincible army and could defeat the corrupt Qing government step by step with their strong combat power. The result of history is that the Qing government, like a broken house, solved the invincible Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the corrupt Qing government survived for decades before finally lying in the Republic of China era.
Taiping Heavenly Kingdom initially declared to its church members that everyone should have land and food for everyone. This person's promise is still attractive to the poor people in dire straits, and there are many people following Hong Xiuquan.
After the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom achieved certain achievements, Hong Xiuquan and the "kings" who followed him showed a greedy face in front of his church members, and began to occupy land like a bully and bully men and women.
Even the men and women they claimed were equality , everyone was a brother and sister, and became Hong Xiuquan who accepted hundreds of concubines. Even the female top scorer " Fu Shanxiang ", who won the imperial examination in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, was also included in the harem by Hong Xiuquan and became one of his concubines.
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, under the banner of enlightenment, avoided and cited words, which was even worse than the Qing government they opposed. Even the name of its own country and the occupied territory were changed to some strange names, which made people laugh and cry.
Several leaders of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom who had never read any books have changed the "national name" of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom many times. The name of a country is originally meant to appear majestic and domineering.
Whether it is the "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom" or the "God Heavenly Kingdom", it makes people confused at all. The leaders of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom changed the country's name more and more "terrible".
Later, they changed the country name to "Heavenly Father, Heavenly Brother, Taiping Heavenly Kingdom". In addition to making people dazzled, this country name also felt inexplicable and unreasonable.
In addition to changing the country's name repeatedly, even the territory they occupied and the place names were modified in a mess by their random operations.
In addition to Dongwang Yang Xiuqing and Tianwang Hong Xiuquan, there are also four heavenly kings, including Xiao Chaogui , Feng Yunshan , Wei Changhui , Shi Dakai . The identities of these "Heavenly Kings" are quite noble. In addition to the daily life of ordinary people, even the place names have to be changed to avoid taboos.
There is the word Feng Yunshan in the place names of Shandong and Shanxi, so these two places were changed to the inexplicable "Shandong" and "Shanxi".
The same reason avoids Feng Yunshan, and Yunnan has also become "Yunnan". To avoid the name of "King of the West" Xiao Chaogui, Guizhou was changed to "Guizhou".
Nanjing, the capital of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, was changed to Tianjin, and even Tianjin with similar pronunciations was not allowed. They changed it to "Tianjin" that makes people completely confused.
As for Guangxi, the "land of dragon prosperity" of several heavenly kings, it has become the "Gui Fu" that blesses the blessings of several heavenly kings. Unfortunately, "Gui Fu" was unable to bless the blessings and prosperity of the heavenly kings in the end, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was finally destroyed in the smoke of history.
