Success is easier than success;
Yun Xiang is the thirteenth son of Emperor Kangxi (after the preface) and the closest brother and actual recorder of Yongzheng's life. Yunxiang currently has two distinct birthdays, one is the first day of October in the 25th year of Qing Emperor Kangxi, and the other is the first day of February in the 25th year of Qing Emperor Kangxi. Is it clearly recorded in the Yunxiang entry in the ninth volume of Biography of People in Qing Dynasty (published by Zhonghua Book Company) compiled by the Compilation Committee of Qing History? Born on the first day of February in the twenty-fifth year of Kangxi? And the biography of Yongzheng by Feng Erkang, a professor at Nankai University (published by People's Publishing House) is said to be the first day of October in the twenty-fifth year of Kangxi. So far, there is no clear statement in the field of history.
Yunxiang's biological mother is Zhang Jiashi, who was born in Zhenghuangqi, Manchuria. According to historical records, Princess Ke Wen was born on November 27th, 26th year of Qing Emperor Kangxi, and there is no difference in the date of birth. According to the date of the princess's birth, Kangxi should be born shortly after Yunxiang's birth (according to the record of the first day of October) and then lucky. From here, it seems that the first day of February should be chosen. But according to Yongzheng's own statement, it is pointed out that Yunxiang was born on the first day of October. For details, please refer to the letterNo. Zhu Yudi 16 collected by the Qing Sejong in the Palace Museum in Beijing, which contains a congratulatory letter from Yongzheng on Yunxiang's birthday. Yunxiang is Yongzheng's most valued brother, and his birthday Yongzheng should not be mistaken. And Yongzheng's birthday is1October 30th. In addition, the Kangxi dynasty's "Ju Zhu" also pointed out that at the end of the twenty-fifth year of Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi had been to Zhang Jiashi's residence. It is particularly worth mentioning that when Zhang Jiashi, Yunxiang's biological mother, died, the third son of Kangxi's beloved son, Duoluocheng County King, was unexpectedly reprimanded by Kangxi for shaving his head, losing the title of County King and being reduced to Baylor. The emperor's third son was a newly appointed county king just one year before Zhang Jiashi's death (the thirty-seventh year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty). His kindness was to prosper as soon as possible. Kangxi dealt with the cause of the prince so severely, only out of courtesy, which was unique in Kangxi's 61-year rule. This shows how much Kangxi likes Zhang Jiashi.
? Are children more expensive than mothers? Yun Xiang was valued by his father since he was a child, and he often followed Kangxi around. Yun Xiang is generally calm and cautious. In his later years, Emperor Kangxi fought endlessly for the throne, and Yun Xiang actively cooperated with his half-brother, the later Qing Sejong, so he was punished. In the last ten years of Kangxi, Yun Xiang did not improve, and his body was already strong. It is also true that Yun Xiang's health has been hit hard by the ban of Zongrenfu.
After Yongzheng acceded to the throne, Yun Xiang played an important role, and successively held many important events, including government and military examinations, and the handling of the emperor's mausoleum. "Cloud Image" can be said to be the actual record during the reign of Yongzheng. Yongzheng said to his courtiers: I appointed all your ministers. Although thousands of people gathered in one place, I may not rely on the king alone. ? Feng Qiyong's book "Cao Xueqin's Family History in the South of the Yangtze River" revealed that after Cao Xueqin's family was raided, it was clearly mentioned in the Zhu Pi given by Yongzheng to Cao Cao that they were placed under the jurisdiction of Yunxiang, which Yongzheng called Yunxiang? Prince? The tone is also very affectionate. In the early years of Yongzheng, Nian Gengyao and Long Ke were accused of monopolizing power. Yunxiang's job was heavier than anyone else, but Yongzheng had no doubt about it, which also showed that Yongzheng trusted Yunxiang more than the average person.
Zheng Tianting, an expert in Qing history, called this man Sejong of Qing Dynasty? A generation of struggling emperors? Yongzheng was diligent all his life. Japanese historian Saeki Naoko once said: Kangxi was magnanimous. Without the rectification of Yongzheng, the Qing Dynasty would have declined long ago. ? In fact, Yun Xiang played a very important role in Yongzheng's political reform, but many things are unknown because Yun Xiang is low-key and cautious.
For example, Yun Xiang's recommendation to his younger brother Liu Yun is very telling. Lee woon-jae once behaved badly after learning the news of Yongzheng's accession to the throne, so that Yongzheng didn't like him. Later, Yun Xiang discovered Liu Yun's ability and secretly played the emperor. Yongzheng always attached importance to Yun Xiang's performance, and gradually reached the peak of power, becoming the prince of fruit and one of the ministers of the king behind Yongzheng. However, Yun Xiang's deeper scheming is far from it. The 20-year-old battle for the Crown Prince Kangxi made the father and son feel like enemies. Yun Xiang himself has a deep understanding of this kind of cannibalism tragedy, which is not conducive to the stability within the ruling class. Yun Xiang suggested Yongzheng's reuse, not only for allowing Li's ability, but also for the needs of the United front, uniting all forces that can be United to stabilize North Korea. This is Yun Xiang's original intention. However,? Yeah, from the beginning? This layer of meaning, Yunxiang did not discover, let Yongzheng repay the kindness, and Yongzheng naturally understood his brother's painstaking efforts. Since the ceremony, other younger brothers have been promoted and reused by Yongzheng, basically ending the huge rift caused by the party struggle in Kangxi Dynasty.
Yongzheng once had a famous saying about the situation of monarch and minister since ancient times. He said: it is easy to work hard and difficult to succeed as a minister of mortals; It is easy to succeed, but it is difficult to keep working; It is difficult to keep the work, but it is difficult to reach the final work. For the monarch, it is easy to be gracious and difficult to be gracious; When grace is easy, it is difficult to protect grace; Ian, it's all very difficult. ? Yun Xiang had a thorough understanding of this point, which was also the fundamental reason why he always stood firm in the Yongzheng dynasty and was always trusted by the emperor. The above example of giving gifts is an obvious proof. Yongzheng said Yunxiang? There are many places to recommend talents for the country. But Yunxiang was never proud of it, so Yongzheng publicly pointed out Yunxiang's recommendation to trusted ministers and publicly encouraged ministers to keep in touch with Yunxiang. He said to his cronies: The prince is honest and loyal. He is the first king in the contemporary era, you know. ? Since ancient times, it is rare to see such honest ministers as Yongzheng and Yun Xiang.
On Yunxiang's birthday, Yongzheng wrote to He Lian saying? Brother Jun and Chen are always lucky? After Yunxiang's death, Yongzheng personally chose the cemetery for Yunxiang, and did not hesitate to violate the wishes of the deceased before his death. He has built a super-standard mausoleum for Yunxiang since he was a teenager. And before posthumous title, the prince of the Qing dynasty? Loyalty, sincerity, diligence, prudence and honesty? Yun Xiang is the only one with eight characters.
However, Yun Xiang's descendants have no such scheming. His son, Jiao Hong, and his grandson, Zai Yuan, lost their positions and even their lives because they were not sensitive enough.
Examples where success is easier than success:
I watched the video of teacher Chen's program comment yesterday. The theme of the program is the multiple combination of drum music and acrobatics. The design is very creative, and it has high ornamental and artistic value after being passed down and integrated into modern expression techniques. There are many participants and it is difficult to move.
At the end of the performance, when it was the turn of the jury to comment, a young man said this? This kind of performance is not good for these children's future life. ? Next, Mr. Chen refuted a few words that I quite agree with and still remember:
? You must work hard, but don't worry. ?
? Every face is different, and you are all unique. ?
This suddenly reminds me of an incident when I was a child.
I have been poor at math since I was a child, and I am naturally insensitive to numbers and have no talent. I barely stayed in high school by brushing questions, but my math scores plummeted because of the increased difficulty in learning. When the score was the lowest in my memory, the total score was 150, and I got 35. In the high school era when scores are paramount, the head teacher happens to be a math teacher. His favorite sentence is to learn math and physics well, and he is not afraid to travel all over the world.
Therefore, I was naturally marginalized: when I started school, I was ranked in the second row according to my grades, and I unconsciously reached the bottom row. In the key science class, my poor grades in math and physics almost killed me. From a good student to a poor student, falling from the clouds made me study math hard and stayed in the sea of questions all day.
I don't want to communicate with my classmates, let alone my parents. I was lonely at school and I didn't have any friends at school. I recite formulas when I walk on the road. I don't know any effective learning methods, thinking that as long as I recite some formulas and do more problems, everything will be fine.
The result can be imagined: the intake of new knowledge makes me overwhelmed and tired of coping with the crowd tactics. The accumulated knowledge inventory quickly bottomed out and new knowledge could not be systematized. My grades didn't go up, but my body soon collapsed. The aura of the whole body is full of negative energy. In my mother's words, the eyes are dull, the eyes are dull, and the body is gaunt. The whole person is a walking corpse.
But to be honest, even though my studies were bumpy, I never thought about giving up. I think very clearly that no matter what the process is, I have to struggle to know if I can do it. With this heroic and tragic mentality, I insisted on the placement exam, and I chose liberal arts with all my eggs in one basket. But in our small place where the 38th parallel can't be occupied, the synonym of liberal arts is incompetence.
Relatives and teachers around generally believe that there is no job without learning mathematics, physics and chemistry. And I'm not good at math, and I can't keep up with others in other subjects. Besides being self-righteous, what about liberal arts? Talent? Outside, there is no advantage. But I still insisted on my choice and paid the price for it. Repeat for one year.
The first time I failed in the college entrance examination, I felt dark and the world was ending. Then I struggled for a summer vacation in the choice of entering the society and repeating my studies. I wrote this sentence in my notebook the night before I decided to repeat it. You must work hard, never give up and never be impatient. ?
Looking back today, I can see that this year is not long, but the harvest can benefit me for a lifetime. After the second college entrance examination, I was lucky enough to attend the media department of a good university, and now I am also doing my favorite related industry. During those days, I was desperate and almost desperate, and learned to bear hardships and stand hard work. Repetition with a broad future has taught me to persist and wait.
If I had been more eager to enter the society, I might have taken a different path. So I still firmly believe in one truth: don't be sorry for yourself, God won't fail you. You must work hard, but don't be impatient. Time will give you what you want and what you deserve, and all your efforts will pave the way for you.
It also gave me a similar experience, and one thing came from my friend Reid. My readers and friends may have read the story of reed. Reid met with many difficulties when he worked in the company he just graduated from. The boss's embarrassment, colleagues' ridicule, and difficulties in work are all common things.
After two years of love, her boyfriend's resolute departure hit her the hardest. Because of foreign cooperation, this job needs better spoken English. In order to catch up with the gap, she goes to night school every night and works overtime when she comes home. At that time, sleeping and talking in sleep were all memorizing words. It's normal to make plans all night, and it's amazing if one day you don't have to work overtime.
Even she soon came out of the pain of lovelorn? Work didn't give her a chance to hurt spring and grieve autumn. But she was in no hurry. I sometimes feel sorry for her. Her salary doesn't go up, her position doesn't go up, and she jumps about in a hurry, but she is very calm. Because she is not in a hurry, she said that what should come will always come, as long as she is mentally prepared.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for her to get a promotion and a raise, and she was getting closer and closer to her dream. Society is cruel and utilitarian, but the logic is simple. It will give you your value. And we spend a lifetime, isn't it trying to improve our value? Without the accumulation of quantitative changes, there will be no qualitative leap.
You strive to improve yourself and won't let you down easily. Don't worry, what should come will always come to you. Besides, it's no use rushing. Don't always complain that you haven't been promoted and raised, but see if your contribution is more worthwhile. There are always people who are more capable than you, but work harder than you. Everyone is unique, there is only one you in the world, no matter how big or small, you always have your unique value.
I won't tell you, as long as you work hard, you can fight back immediately. I just want to tell you that as long as you work hard, we can all become unique, ordinary but valuable selves. There are many mistakes, and your efforts can't be wrong. So, young man, you must work hard, but don't be impatient.
