The "three sons" in the world are Gao Shiqi, Chen Huang and Xu Qianxue. These three are also famous figures in real history books. Each of them has its own characteristics and vivid portrayals. Chen Huang does not seek fame and fortune. He is dedicated to following Jin Fu to manage Yellow River , and is determined to be a character like Dayu ; Gao Shiqi is full of talent but arrogant, cunning like a fox, smooth and good at ease, and finally gains the appreciation of the emperor and moves seven times a day, which is extremely favored by the emperor. Because Xu Qianxue did not seek party disputes, although he could only copy books in various departments. In the end, he had no choice but to defect to Soetu , but he made a bad guy inside and outside, and he is currently the worst among the three brothers.
In real history, Gao Shiqi, Chen Huang and Xu Qianxue are all famous figures, and they are all figures in history books. Some of them are famous for generations, some are made up of jesters , some become jokes among the people, and some have tragic endings!
Chen Huang (a genius in river management)
Chen Huang, whose courtesy name is Tianyi and his nickname is Shengzhai, was from Jiaxing, Zhejiang, and was Qing Dynasty famous officials in river management. Although he was smart since childhood, he did not like eight-legged essays, so he failed many times and simply gave up the scientific examination in the end and focused on studying farmland water conservancy. This also makes his personality a little extreme. He once wrote a poem on the wall of Lu Zu'an: "The Duke and the Marquis have been dreaming of forty years. Although they are romantic, I am still in a dream. I am now in a down-and-out way, so I want to borrow a pillow for my husband." Later, they were seen by Jin Fu, and the two got along very well. After Jin Fu became the governor of the river, Chen Huang served as his aide and carefully assisted him in governing the Yellow River. Later, Kangxi visited the river and was given the title of assistant minister and counselor of river affairs. So in history, Chen Huang finally became an official.

It’s a pity that Chen Huang’s ending in history was not very good. During the period when he and Jin Fu were governing the Yellow River, they offended too many powerful people and were participated by the censor Guo Xiu . They were removed from office on the charge of “snatching people’s land and claiming to be settled” and were imprisoned, and finally died of depression in prison. It is a pity that a generation of capable officials in the river management ended up like this. Chen Huang wrote "About River Defense" and "Abstract of River Defense". Although he was dead, later generations still dominated the river management plan of him and Jin Fu in the late Qing Dynasty.
Xu Qianxue (a family of knowledge)
One of the favorite ministers of Emperor Kangxi, Xu Qianxue was a well-known figure, unlike Chen Huang. His journey to the imperial examination was very smooth. He was able to write at the age of eight. In the ninth year of Kangxi, he participated in the palace examination and was awarded the third place in the first class, the third place in the Jinshi and the second place in the , that is, Tanhua, and was also awarded the editor of the Hanlin Academy. It can be said that he was proud of his youth. In fact, the prototype of the "three sons in the exam" should be the three brothers of the Xu family. After Xu Qianxue passed the Tanhua exam, his two Kunshan brothers, Xu Yuanwen, and Xu Bingyi, , one of them won the top scorer and the other one passed the Tanhua, and they are called "Three Xus in Kunshan".

more than that. In the early Qing Dynasty, Gu Yanwu was his uncle. His family background was quite profound and his official career was also a success. He served as the lecturer, the bachelor of the cabinet and the left censor, and was later promoted to the Minister of Justice. He has also edited books such as " Ming History ", " Qing Dynasty Unification Zhi ", and "Reading Li Tongkao", which is truly a history of fame and fortune.

Now let’s talk about Xu Qianxue’s character. He first clinged to Mingzhu and fought against Soetu. This is different from the world’s long river TV series. Later, he saw Mingzhu decline. After breaking away from being independent, he joined forces with Soetu, truly achieving success and always standing on the advantageous side. Later, he was impeached and removed from his official position for accepting bribes from Zhang Pai, the governor of Huguang. Later, between the 29th to 31st year of the Kangxi reign, Xu Qianxue's family was charged with more than 20 illegal acts. They were all covered by Kangxi, and the matter was left unresolved, which shows how Kangxi favored him.
Gao Shiqi (a strange man of a generation)
Gao Shiqi, whose courtesy name is Danren, and his pseudonym is Jiangcun, Pinglu, Zhuchuang, is from Qiantang, Zhejiang. Gao Shiqi is the most legendary of the three of them. He lost his father in a young age, lost his wife in middle age, and lost his son in his later years. He caught up with these three items! In the play, he moved seven times a day, which was extremely glorious. In reality, although this is not the case, it is not an exaggeration to describe Gao Shiqi's life as extreme glory.

But in real history, he was born in a humble background. He studied hard since childhood. Although he was well-educated, he could only make a living by teaching. He was attracted by Mingzhu with his good handwriting. Later, Mingzhu recommended him to the emperor. Gao Shiqi has become famous since then and has become a celebrity around the emperor. In the play, he is skilled and versatile. In reality, he is indeed such a person, smart and has a high emotional intelligence. It is said that Gao Shiqi would bring a bag of golden beans every time he entered the palace, but he did not leave any of them. Therefore, the news about him in the palace was the most informative. Kangxi had no better than him in his dynasty in guessing the holy heart, and Kangxi even relied on him as his confidant. Who doesn’t love such a caring minister?

During the reign of Kangxi, Gao Shiqi and him were basically inseparable. Although his official system was not obvious, no one dared to underestimate him, and no one knew what kind of effect his words would have on Kangxi. Gao Shiqi was famous throughout his life and had a wide range of knowledge. He was a veritable miscellaneous scholar. Emperor Kangxi also had a wide range of hobbies, so it was relatively easy to understand them if they could get along well.

Emperor Kangxi once said: "After the talent of scholars, we will know the way of learning. When we first saw the talent of scholars, we will know the times at a glance. When we look at them, we will know the times. I think it is different. Soon, I can do it. The talent of scholars has no achievements in fighting, but I treat it well, and it is great for me to benefit my knowledge." Kangxi also gave him the seal of the "Home of Loyalty and Filial Piety". In the dynasty where accompanies the king as if he is a tiger, he truly achieved both loyalty and filial piety. Even if he was impeached in the end, Kangxi recalled him to his side, which was enough to show his favor.
The "Three Sons in the Exam" in "The Long River of the World", Chen Huang, who was determined to manage the river, finally died of depression in prison. Gao Shiqi and Xu Qianxue both ended up well, and academic works have been circulated in the world, which is considered to be famous in history! As for who is who is not someone like us, history has already given it! If it were you, who would you be among them?
