In "The Long River of the World", Xu Qianxue , Gao Shiqi and Chen Huang 's career and experience are the main line. In history, Xu Qianxue and Gao Shiqi were important officials of the dynasty of Kangxi . Among them, Xu Qianxue was the official position of Zuodu Censor and Ministry of Justice Shangshu; Gao Shiqi official positioned plus First-ranked Minister of Rites and Bachelor of Hanlin Academy . Although Chen Huang was not an important official of Kangxi, he was a famous minister in governing the river. So what are the similarities and differences between these three people in the play and in history? How did they end?
The three people in the play have at least five points that match the history:
1. Xu Qianxue is indeed the third-place Tanhualang in the first place.
2. Gao Shiqi was poor in his early years, which means that he was indeed a poor scholar.
3. Only Xu Qianxue entered the imperial examination, and Gao Shiqi and Chen Huang failed the exam. Gao Shiqi was appreciated by Kangxi and personally gave him the qualification of examination , and since then he has risen to the top; Chen Huang met the nobleman , Jin Fu, and was finally awarded the title of Assistant under Jin Fu's protection.
4. Chen Huang Essential research on the governance of Yellow River . is indeed not interested in Eight-Legend essay , and I failed the exam several times.
5. Xu Qianxue dealt with Mingzhu and Suoetu . He was at first Mingzhu's capable general, but later he turned to Suoetu to turn his gun against Mingzhu. Xu Qianxue in the play also wanted to turn to Suoetu after he was rejected.
There are many differences, and there are roughly two points:
1. Xu Qian's scholar's origins are from the academic background. His two younger brothers Xu Yuanwen was the top scholar in the 16th year of Shunzhi (1659), Xu Bingyi was Tanhua in the 12th year of Kangxi (1673). The three brothers of Xu are called " Kunshan Sanxu ", Gu Yanwu is their uncle. In terms of talent Xu Qianxu is at least not inferior to Gao Shiqi, and Xu Qianxue is not short of money.
2. In the play, the three people Xu Qianxue are the eldest brother, Gao Shiqi is the second brother, and Chen Huang is the third brother. In fact, in terms of age, Chen Huang is several years older than Gao Shiqi in history. Chen Huang is the second brother, and the third brother should be Gao Shiqi.
So what is the ending of the three?
Although Gao Shiqi and Xu Qianxue were important officials of the Kangxi dynasty, their official voices were not good. Both of them were impeached or implicated for corruption and bribery. The difference is that Gao Shiqi is more trusted by Kangxi. Therefore, even if Gao Shiqi is not good at official voice, he is suspected of being corrupt, Kangxi still cared for him. He took him by his side several Western Expeditions and Southern Tours. In the 42nd year of Kangxi (1703), 60-year-old Gao Shiqi died at home. Kangxi posthumously awarded the posthumous title Wenke. This is a very good posthumous title. Only he has the posthumous title for the three of them. It can be seen that Kangxi is indeed good to Gao Shiqi.
Xu Qianxue did not have such good luck as Gao Shiqi. 27th year of Kangxi (1688)2Xu Qianxue was implicated by Hukguang Governor Zhang Feng, who was implicated in the corruption case. He asked to "release it back to the fields". Kangxi approved what he asked. In the 30th year of Kangxi (1691)Xu Qianxue and his brother Xu Yuanwen were impeached "advocate, and bribes, fighting for profit and harm to the people" a total of fifteen articles. Xu Yuanwen "died with fear and vomiting blood". Since then, Xu Qianxue was impeached many times. In the 33rd year of Kangxi (1694)Xu Qianxue died of illness.
Chen Huang was determined to govern the river but violated the interests of local landlords and gentry. In the 27th year of Kangxi (1688), Chen Huang was impeached by Jiangnan Road Censor Guo Xiu was impeached for "snatching people's land and lying to cultivate". He died of grief and hatred soon. In the play, Chen Huang told Kangxi that he would give him 30 years to give Kangxi a clear Yellow River. Kangxi also agreed. However, it was obvious that Kangxi did not fulfill his promise to Chen Huang. Fortunately, in the 31st year of Kangxi (1692), Jin Fu rehabilitated Chen Huang and returned him with innocence.
