Zhou Peigong died, in the snowy and snowy Shengjing.
A man was demoted, in a lonely foreign land, there was no one around him when he closed his eyes. He is a southerner who is not suitable for the local conditions, but he has been in Shengjing for 11 years. I wonder if he was full of resentment before his death.
happens to Kangxi from the capital to Shengjing to conquer Mongolia. Kangxi got out of the carriage and did not see Zhou Peigong picking it up. He thought Zhou Peigong was resentful and pretended to be sick and did not come.
Kangxi came from the capital without stopping, not caring about drinking a cup of tea, and wanted to take a look at Zhou Peigong first. I put my hand on his pulse and found out that he was really sick and very sick. Kangxi originally thought that he was pretending to be sick, but he didn't know much about his subject.
At this time, Kangxi, who had finished his pulse, felt very guilty. He threw Zhou Peigong, who had made great contributions, into Shengjing, which was in the snow and ice, and he had the intention of surveillance.
Before Kangxi left, Zhou Peigong gave Kangxi the painting he had painted for 10 years. When Kangxi opened it and saw that it was a map, he felt extremely regretful. It was a pity that the glory belonging to Zhou Peigong had never been obtained.
Zhou Peigong was poor and destitute since childhood. Once he was appreciated by Kangxi, he rose to the sky and went straight to
Zhou Peigong lost his father at a young age. His ten-year-old mother died of martyrdom. His family was poor and he grew up under the nurturing of a nurse. Since childhood, I have been studying in a very difficult environment, and have been very talented.
Kangxi's teacher Wu Ciyou Seeing that Zhou Peigong was very talented, he wrote him a letter of recommendation, asking him to ask someone to hand it over to Kangxi after he arrived in the capital.
1672 Zhou Peigong went to Beijing to take the exam. He was proud and wanted to win the exam with his talent and was named to the list.
is Mingzhu, the prime minister in charge of the imperial examination. He is very corrupt and accepts bribes. If you want to be on the list, you have to spend money to make some money in advance. Zhou Peigong was so poor that he was very poor, and he would rather take the exam by himself.
However, when Zhou Peigong was taking the exam, he was careless and did not avoid Kangxi's name. The paper was posted in public and was kicked out of the exam.
Zhou Peigong was deeply hit. After a serious illness, he also understood a truth. Since ancient times, no one has ever been able to do great things. How can he succeed without going through some hardships?
After Zhou Peigong recovered from his illness, he was penniless and had to go to the Hunan and Hubei Guizhou Hall for help. On the way, he met a girl named Suoer who sold tofu brains. Three bowls of tofu brains were exchanged for Zhou Peigong's recommendation letter worth a thousand gold.
coincidentally, Kangxi took a private visit. While drinking tofu brain, he heard the little song sung by Suo'er. It turned out to be the unjust song of her parents. Kangxi saw that the back of the paper writing the song was actually a letter of recommendation from his teacher Wu Ciyou.
Kangxi found Zhou Peigong for a conversation and learned the whole process, and directly appointed Zhou Peigong as an official. From then on, Zhou Peigong became one of the important counselors around Emperor Kangxi.
Zhou Peigong made unparalleled contributions
1672, Kangxi summoned the ministers to the palace to discuss the withdrawal of Sanfan . The ministers were talking about this matter, and Kangxi was upset. Suddenly, Kangxi said to Zhou Peigong:
"Zhou Peigong, you don't speak, what kind of stinking airs are put on in front of me?"
Zhou Peigong told Kangxi that the first installment payment method could be adopted, Wu Sangui went down the mountain, moved north in the middle, and resettled outside the pass in the third phase. As long as you prepare the first phase of the fee, you don’t have to worry as long as you wait for Wu Sangui to go down the mountain. It’s not the court’s final decision that you leave Yunnan.
Kangxi was too eager to achieve success, but Wu Sangui didn't play according to common sense. He openly agreed to withdraw the vassal state and handed over the seal of the dispatch of troops to the court, but Wu Sangui secretly recruited troops and made a secret arrangement. When the agreed time was reached, he directly rebelled.
What's worse is still behind. Wu Sangui's army was unstoppable and directly took over Hunan and Hubei. He also instigated the Shaanxi admiral Wang Fuchen to rebel and respond in north , trying to open up contact with Geng and Wang. At the same time, the southeast coast was also in turmoil, but the army was defeated again and again, and the ministers were full of complaints.
The officials in the court were at a loss, but Zhou Peigong analyzed the current situation very calmly. In the end, Zhou Peigong and Tuhai led the temporary army, first pacified Chahar's 30,000 troops, and immediately rushed to Shaanxi.
1676, as soon as Tuhai arrived at Pingliang , he would attack the city, but Zhou Peigong analyzed and decided to go and persuade the surrender so that the court would not have to fight head-on.
So, Zhou Peigong went to Pingliang City alone to persuade the surrender of the Ganzhou-Shaanxi Admiral Wang Fuchen. Wang Fuchen held 80,000 powerful soldiers at the time and was once an old general of Wu Sangui, so the threat was very great.
Zhou Peigong's strategy is to persuade Wang Fuchen to surrender, even if he fails to persuade him to surrender, as long as Wang Fuchen does not help Wu Sangui, the court will reduce the pressure. However, Wang Fuchen finally surrendered to the court under the persuasion of Zhou Peigong. Zhou Peigong solved Kangxi's great troubles without spending one soldier.
At the last moment of the war, many ministers in the court were afraid that Zhou Peigong would be of great merit and told the emperor that Zhou Peigong was a Han man after all, so he should not let his power be too strong, for fear that he would not lose his final result.
Emperor Kangxi also had doubts in his heart, so he ordered Duke Zhou Pei to hand over the command power back to Beijing to report his duties.
was demoted to Shengjing for 11 years
Kangxi was really scared, and there were Aobai , King Chahar, Wu Sangui, and Zhou Peigong was so talented and had an army of 300,000. As long as he thought, Zhou Peigong and Tuhai, one literary and one martial, were just around the corner. Although Kangxi was reminded by Mingzhu, this was also his own pain point.
Since ancient times, the achievements have been so great that most people have not ended well.
Finally, under the exclusion of court officials, Kangxi was demoted to Shengjing in the snow and ice.
It was not until 11 years later that the Fujian news came that Kinmen was lost and Kangxi happened to go to Shengjing to conquer Mongolia. He thought that Zhou Peigong, who came to Shengjing, might have a way to deal with Taiwan.
Kangxi wanted to re-activate Zhou Peigong, but when he arrived in Shengjing, Zhou Peigong was terminally ill and recommended a talent to Kangxi before his death.
Zhou Peigong also said to the emperor:
"If I don't give the emperor a gift, how dare I? For more than ten years, I have buried my innocence and stayed alone in the Snow Country, just to safeguard the emperor's face."
Kangxi also bluntly told Zhou Peigong that, most of all, you defeated Chahar, pacified Wu Sangui, and made unparalleled achievements, but it was because you were a Han. In order to calm the unity of the civil and military officials and soldiers of the court, you can only sacrifice you in exchange for stability in the country.
Zhou Peigong smiled when he heard Kangxi’s thoughts.
Zhou Peigong finally gave him a painting, which was given to Kangxi after 10 years of experience. Kangxi went back and opened it and found that he felt very regretful. This was a map drawn by Zhou Pei for 10 years, searching all the classics and historical books. The national terrain is clear at a glance. Although Zhou Peigong was demoted, he was still worried about the power of the court and considered all the issues of Kangxi. The threat from the north and the threat from the southeastern and southeastern Fujian were considered by Kangxi.
kangxi ordered Mingzhu to do his best to treat Zhou Peigong, he was already dead, but the map left by Zhou Peigong had far-reaching impact and benefit the world. Even at the end of his life, he was still working hard, worrying about the country and the people.
