Yue Zhongqi appeared four times in the whole play. For the first time, thirteen old man Andrew issued a wanted order, asking Nian Gengyao to go to Jiangxia Town to get the officials. As a subordinate of Nian Gengyao, Yue Zhongqi made a brief appearance during this period. The second time, Yue Zhongqi followed Nian Gengyao to the massacre in Jiangxia Town. This time, Yue Zhongqi performed the most eye-catching, drew a line on her face and killed Jiangxia Town. For the third time, Yongzheng dismissed Nian Gengyao from the post of general of recovery and replaced Nian Gengyao with Yue Zhongqi, which was also the highlight moment of Yue Zhongqi's character in the play and gave Nian Gengyao a humble meal. The fourth time, Ceng Jing persuaded Yue Zhongqi to oppose the Qing Dynasty and was trapped by Yue Zhongqi.
Apart from these four appearances, Yue Zhongqi is basically a figure going through the motions in the play. But it is these four scenes that fully illustrate Yue Zhongqi's officialdom wisdom. Through Yue Zhongqi's officialdom wisdom, we can understand why, as Nian Gengyao's confidant, he betrayed Nian Gengyao, gained the trust of Yongzheng and took over Nian Gengyao's position.
Yue Zhongqi is Nian Gengyao's confidant, but he is also a military commander who is proficient in being an official. Yue Zhongqi was Nian Gengyao's most effective confidant after he became the Sichuan magistrate. He must have won the trust of Nian Gengyao, so before a bloodbath in Jiangxia Town, Nian Gengyao specially consulted him.
After the second restoration of Prince Yin Yong, in order to hold officials hostage, he specially asked Huang Tianxiang, the third son in charge of punishments, to release Ren Bo 'an and Liu Ba 'nv, the masterminds of the case of "cutting white ducks". Because Ren Boan has a hundred officials' statement, Yin Yong wants to hold officials hostage through Ren Boan's official statement.
Three-dimensional Reng denounced Huang Dijun, and Huang Dijun turned around and sold these things directly to Yongzheng Laosi. So under the guidance of Wu Sidao, a think tank under Yongzheng, Huang Dijun and Yongzheng teamed up to put aside Ren Bo 'an and Liu Bannv for a pretence, and then sent Nian Gengyao to Jiangxia Town, Anhui Province, with Sichuan military forces, to take them back and take away the official line.
So in this way, Nian Gengyao found Yue Zhongqi, a confidant, and discussed the transfer of troops to Anhui to arrest people. After Yue Zhongqi entered the theater, she read Nian Gengyao's "Defending Huang Hongfa" first. Yue Zhongqi asked: "We are Sichuan garrison soldiers, and it is not systematic to go to Anhui to arrest people."
Then Nian Gengyao returned to Yue Zhongqi: "What system is not? I called you here to discuss how to do it. "
The dialogue in this scene can best show that Yue Zhongqi is good at officialdom wisdom. He didn't shirk his work, but first thought about how to share the responsibility. Nian Gengyao is his immediate superior and takes instructions from Prince Andrew Wang. He must do it himself, but not in a shady way. He must share the responsibility and understand it. Otherwise, he was afraid that something had happened to Nian Gengyao and Huang Hong and let him take the blame. So Yue Zhongqi talks about the system.
Later, Nian Gengyao directly denied it, but Nian Gengyao said that he was consulting with him, meaning that Yue Zhongqi would definitely not do it, but Yue Zhongqi was very HuiLaiShi. As soon as Nian Gengyao touched her shoulder, Yue Zhongqi hurried to pinch Nian Gengyao's shoulder, which showed that the two people were close and Nian Gengyao regarded him as a confidant.
Nian Gengyao gave him reassurance while holding his shoulder, saying that it was not only Huang Hongfa, but also the orders of the old four Yongzheng. There are two princes on it, and my Sichuan prefect. You won't be allowed to make a mat. With such an account, Yue Zhongqi was practical in her heart. He also knew that he had followed Nian Gengyao on the Yongzheng ship and was involved in the battle for the position of Prince. But his official position is not qualified after all. Anyway, there are bosses, princes and immortals fighting.
This scene fully embodies the close relationship between Yue Zhongqi and Nian Gengyao, delicate mind and good at officialdom. If he can do something, he must share the responsibility, otherwise he is likely to die in ignorance.
During the bloodbath in Jiangxia Town, Yue Zhongqi was also considerate in everything. At first, he didn't know that Nian Gengyao had the idea of robbing wealth and killing people, but when he found out, Yue Zhongqi hesitated and helped Nian Gengyao carry it out happily.
Yue Zhongqi deliberately drew a line on her face and then shouted "Rebellion, brothers, kill!" Yue Zhongqi's performance can be described as witty, creating a good excuse for killing people. It can also be seen that Yue Zhongqi is a vicious person.
So through these two scenes, we can see that Yue Zhongqi is a clever and witty person in the play. Although he has a deep relationship with Nian Gengyao, he is taking advantage of the situation. Nian Gengyao is the boss, of course, he is comfortable. Nian Gengyao also appreciates Yue Zhongqi, who can read his mind and handle affairs. Therefore, he can be promoted to General Fuyuan and continue to promote Yue Zhongqi as his deputy. Because there are such people,
Yongzheng certainly knew Yue Zhongqi's character, so Yongzheng dared to use Yue Zhongqi's ladder. Nian Gengyao Yue Zhongqi is a "tumbler" in officialdom. His mind is clear, and he can always tell who is the king of size, unlike Nian Gengyao.
After Yin Gui became General Fuyuan, Nian Gengyao began to take credit for it, and he couldn't tell the king from the king. He always thought that Yongzheng relied on him and could not touch him, so he was finally killed by Yongzheng.
Yue Zhongqi is different from him. Yue Zhongqi did not simply obey and follow Nian Gengyao. It can be seen from the beginning that Yue Zhongqi directly raised her own concerns after reading Huang Hong's personal letter to Nian Gengyao. He obeyed Nian Gengyao to some extent, provided that he must protect his own safety.
So Yue Zhongqi can see who is the king of size. Nian Gengyao is just a courtier, and Yongzheng is the emperor. Yongzheng can decide his own future and destiny. So YueZhongQi when tidy up Nian Gengyao, help yongzheng tidy up Nian Gengyao without hesitation.
Yongzheng actually knew what Yue Zhongqi had done to Nian Gengyao, so Yongzheng could see through what Yue Zhongqi was like before he dared to let Yue Zhongqi succeed Nian Gengyao.
Yongzheng knew Nian Gengyao's character from the bloody case in Jiangxia Town, Nian Gengyao. In this case, he should also know what Yue Zhongqi did, and Yue Zhongqi's performance in the bloodbath in Jiangxia Town was also in line with Yongzheng's intention of employing people, so Yongzheng dared to safely hand over the position of Fuyuan General to Yue Zhongqi.
Yue Zhongqi's performance did not disappoint Yongzheng. Yongzheng sent Tulichen to the northwest and announced Yue Zhongqi as General Fuyuan. Nian Gengyao went back to ask Yue Zhongqi if she changed all her subordinates to one of her own. Yue Zhongqi was supercilious and showed them to Nian Gengyao one by one. They are all transferred from other places, and none of them is one of our own.
As can be seen from this conversation, Nian Gengyao has been in charge of the nationalist army for a long time, and his cronies have been placed in the army. There is nothing the nationalist army can do about Yongzheng, as if it had become a small private court in Nian Gengyao. After Yue Zhongqi succeeded to Nian Gengyao, he did not remove all Nian Gengyao's aides, but transferred them from the commander-in-chief to the general, which calmed the hearts of the army.
At the same time, Yue Zhongqi accepted Yongzheng's transfer of people from other places into the nationalist army in order to show Yongzheng that he was not arbitrary and controlled the nationalist army like Nian Gengyao, and the generals transferred from other places must be people who could report to Yongzheng from behind, which also showed that Yue Zhongqi was willing to accept Yongzheng's supervision.
Yue Zhongqi's return to Nian Gengyao shows Nian Gengyao's arrogance of holding the nationalist army for a long time, and also proves to Yongzheng that he is a trustworthy person who can replace Nian Gengyao.
Then Ceng Jing persuaded Yue Zhongqi to rebel. Yue Zhongqi still behaved very appropriately. He trapped Ceng Jing, but instead of dealing with Ceng Jing privately, he gave it to Yongzheng, thus clearing his suspicion and expressing his loyalty to Yongzheng.
Therefore, Yue Zhongqi has both ability and wisdom, knows the rules of officialdom, and knows how to make his superiors feel at ease, at ease, satisfied and comfortable. It is difficult for such subordinates to be loved and valued by their superiors in officialdom. So, Yue Zhongqi came back from Nian Gengyao's lieutenant and became the general of Fuyuan after Yin Gui and Nian Gengyao.
What about the real Yue Zhongqi in history? In fact, Yue Zhongqi in history was an equal star with Nian Gengyao in Yongzheng period, not a subordinate of Nian Gengyao. On the contrary, Nian Gengyao is a subordinate of Yue Shenglong, Yue Zhongqi's father.
At the age of 30, Nian Gengyao was appointed as the governor of Sichuan by Kangxi, who was the youngest governor in the Qing Dynasty. Yue Shenglong, the father of Yue Zhongqi, once helped Kangxi to quell the San Francisco rebellion and conquer Galdin. Kangxi later conferred Yue Shenglong as Sichuan magistrate and minister of state. Although the prefect and the governor are not systematic officials and have no subordinate relationship, Yue Shenglong is also a parliamentary minister. From this perspective, Nian Gengyao, as the governor of Sichuan, really needs Yue Shenglong to score three points.
Yue Zhongqi followed Yin Gui to discuss Alabo, who was appreciated by Kangxi as early as the Kangxi era, and made great contributions. One is Nian Gengyao, and the other is Yue Zhongqi, two rising stars whom Kangxi admired very much in his later years.
In the 60th year of Kangxi (172 1), Yue Zhongqi, who was only 3 1 year old, was appreciated by Kangxi and was promoted to the position of Sichuan magistrate that year. At this time, Nian Gengyao has become the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, but his affiliation is not strong. From the level, they are almost the same level, one in charge of the army and the other in charge of civil affairs.
Until the death of Kangxi, Yongzheng recalled Yin Gui from the northwest front, and then there was a rebellion in the northwest of Heshuo, Qinghai. So Yongzheng urgently transferred Nian Gengyao as the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi and concurrently served as general Fuyuan, leading the Northwest Army to quell the Zangdanjin rebellion in Luobu.
At this point, Yue Zhongqi, as the prefect of Sichuan, was transferred to the northwest front in the name of General Yongzheng and Counselor Military Affairs Minister, and was temporarily under the command of Nian Gengyao. Later, Nian Gengyao followed Yue Zhongqi's advice and quickly quelled the Zangdanjin rebellion in Luobu.
Because Yue Zhongqi made contributions in pacifying Zangdanjin rebellion in Luobu, Yongzheng named Yue Zhongqi as General Wei Fen, took Yue Zhongqi, the magistrate of Sichuan and Gansu, in charge of military affairs in Sichuan and Gansu provinces, and added a third-class Wei Gong. Yongzheng personally wrote a poem for him and gave it to Yue Zhongqi on a gold fan.
During this period, Yue Zhongqi was basically the No.2 figure in the northwest front, and her position was almost the same as that of Nian Gengyao. He and Nian Gengyao are also famous stars in Beijing. Later, after Nian Gengyao was granted death by Yongzheng, Yongzheng wanted Yue Zhongqi to succeed Nian Gengyao as the governor and general of Sichuan and Shaanxi, and was fully responsible for the military and political power in the northwest.
However, Yongzheng's idea was unanimously opposed by the Manchu nobles at that time, because the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi was responsible for the northwest border defense of the Qing government, and the military power was much greater than that of the governor's office. Therefore, it was stipulated from Kangxi that the person who became the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi must be a standard bearer. Although Nian Gengyao was a Han Chinese before, Nian Gengyao was born in the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, and he was also a standard bearer.
Yue Zhongqi is an out-and-out Han Chinese and a direct descendant of Yue Lin, the third son of Yue Fei, the 2nd1grandson of Yue Fei. Therefore, all the nobles in the Qing dynasty opposed Yongzheng's handing over the most important governor of the Qing government to a Han Chinese, and he was also a descendant of someone who had enemies with Jurchen.
When the central aristocrats of the Qing government opposed Yue Zhongqi's appointment as the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, Huang Tianjun, Yongzheng's most trusted brother and the second figure of the Qing government at that time, came out to speak for Yue Zhongqi, and Huang Tianjun recommended Yue Zhongqi with his own life. In this way, Yongzheng and Tianxiong brothers echoed each other and blocked the mouth of the Manchu nobles. Finally, Yue Zhongqi became the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, becoming the first governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi in history of qing dynasty who was not the son of the Eight Banners.
However, due to the identity of Yue Fei's descendants and the influence of Ceng Jing's rebellion, Yue Zhongqi was finally suspected by Yongzheng. In the eighth year of Yongzheng (1730), Yue Zhongqi conquered Junggar khanate as general Ningyuan, and Yongzheng was furious. He dismissed Yue Zhongqi and handed her over to the Ministry of War for trial. Finally, the trial result given by the Ministry of War to Yue Zhongqi is
After Gan Long succeeded to the throne, Yue Zhongqi was released. Later, Qianlong used Yue Zhongqi to quell the first Jinchuan rebellion, and Yue Zhongqi was reinstated, which made great contributions to the improvement of martial arts in the early days of Qianlong. Gan Long wrote several poems praising Yue Zhongqi's achievements, and even called him "a great warrior in the Three Dynasties, and Zhong Qi was a giant." After the death of Yue Zhongqi, Gan Long was granted the title of "Qin Xiang".
Historically, Yue Zhongqi was honest and smart. This is similar to that in TV series. Yue Zhongqi followed Yin Gui and Nian Gengyao in the Western Expedition, while Yin Gui and Nian Gengyao were persecuted and suspected by Yongzheng, but they did not bring trouble to Yue Zhongqi, but promoted her. This shows that Yue Zhongqi is very wise. He didn't run a party for the government, nor did he deliberately please his superiors. Therefore,
Yue Zhongqi is not as proud of herself as Nian Gengyao. He knows how to be modest and prudent, so when he is suspected by Yongzheng and dismissed from office by Yongzheng, his character can also save his life. After all, he was not as proud as Nian Gengyao, and Yongzheng didn't die.
It can be said that although the characters and deeds of Yue Zhongqi in TV series are different from those of the real Yue Zhongqi in history, her political mind is quite similar.
My humble opinion on "The Wind on the Island"
First of all, we should be clear: Is it a betrayal that Yue Zhongqi helped Yongzheng bring down Nian Gengyao and then sat on the throne of the general himself?
In my opinion, this is not betrayal.
Because, in ancient society, only "loyalty to the monarch" was always emphasized, and no one ever advocated "loyalty to the monarch"-only loyalty to the monarch was called ganging up and beheading!
In other words, everyone is also a minister. You Nian Gengyao is the boss, and I, Yue Zhongqi, want to listen to your orders, but that doesn't mean I want to be loyal to you! Moreover, if you are loved by Nian Gengyao Yuezhongqi, well, if you don't treat me as a cadre, I might even "get" you!
So, is Nian Gengyao interested in Yue Zhongqi?
In my opinion, it seems not enough!
Yue Zhongqi first appeared in Yongzheng period, and Nian Gengyao asked her to discuss the matter of "catching eight women of Liu in Jiangxia Town".
At that time, Yue Zhongqi kindly reminded Nian Gengyao that "inter-provincial arrest is not standardized". I didn't expect Nian Gengyao to rudely interrupt Yue Zhongqi directly. "I called you here to discuss what to do"-you see, Nian Gengyao has long been engaged in "centralized".
Moreover, there is a very interesting little detail: Nian Gengyao was sitting there in a "casual" underwear, pointing to his shoulders and arranging his work. Yue Zhongqi passed by with a wink and patted him on the back!
As can be seen from this small detail, Nian Gengyao must be very domineering under his opponent at ordinary times-even his deputy has to be a waiter for himself.
So, what does Yue Zhongqi think of her relationship with Nian Gengyao in her mind? It's worth thinking about.
(I think, in a high probability, in Yue Zhongqi's heart, there must be dissatisfaction, but at that time, he had no power and no potential, so he could only choose to greet him with a smile! )
Later, Nian Gengyao was promoted to general, and Yue Zhongqi was also sent to the northwest.
It needs to be clear here: Is Yue Zhongqi promoted to deputy commander because of Nian Gengyao's recommendation or Yongzheng's promotion?
Nian Gengyao definitely recommended Yue Zhongqi. After all, he has just gone to the northwest and is a stranger. How can he get a few "own"? However, I think that Yue Zhongqi's deputy commander-in-chief position must have been arranged by Yongzheng.
I don't know. Do you remember such a plot? On one occasion, Nian Gengyao wanted Yue Zhongqi to move the army. As a result, Yue Zhongqi moved directly to the royal group of Yongzheng, saying that it was not suitable for moving the army for the time being.
At this time, Nian Gengyao became angry and said, "If anyone can ask the emperor for a letter, what will you do with me as a general?"? Tell Yue Zhongqi to report to me in advance in the future, otherwise I won't care about decades of friendship! "
Visible YueZhongQi although has become a vice handsome, but Nian Gengyao still don't take him seriously. Do you think Yue Zhongqi will have no resentment when she knows?
Moreover, there is another place worth pondering: why does Yue Zhongqi have the right to talk directly with Yongzheng?
What is certain is that it is not Yue Zhongqi's leapfrog report, but Yongzheng's special approval; That is to say, Yue Zhongqi was probably soothed by Yongzheng, so she finally helped Yongzheng bring down Nian Gengyao. This is not betrayal!
Because Yue Zhongqi followed Nian Gengyao's massacre in Jiangxia Town from the beginning, the then humble lieutenant made a quite unexpected move-before killing more than 700 soldiers and civilians in Jiangxia Town, he actually cut his face with a sword!
And this just illustrates his other idea: I don't want to stand with Nian Gengyao!
We don't know how much Yue Zhongqi knows about the secret planning of grandpa four's party in Jiangxia town incident! Does he know that the purpose of this operation is to rob a document called Guan Bai Shu Hang? Even if he knew, did he know what was recorded in it? Does he know that the order to slaughter Jiangxia Town was arranged by Grandpa Four or Nian Gengyao's private behavior? We don't know any of the above questions, but I personally tend to think that he knows nothing!
Because before Nian Gengyao sent troops, he had exposed such a small detail: Nian Gengyao received an order from the Ministry of War from the 13th Master, but he hesitated. When he told the news to Lieutenant Yue Zhongqi, Yue Zhongqi made no secret of his doubt: it is against the regulations to send troops across the border! Obviously, here, Yue Zhongqi has no idea what the real meaning of this command is.
So he may be like 500 dead people, and this operation is just the identity of a mercenary!
However, no matter how others instructed him, even if he neglected Nian Gengyao, who directly planned the operation, and even if Nian Gengyao had instructions from Beijing, Yue Zhongqi, who had become a general, also had the most basic emotional intelligence. I don't know what is the ultimate goal of the whole operation. Yue Zhongqi must find a way to draw a clear line of responsibility. In order to avoid the Jiangxia town incident, he will become someone else's scapegoat, so before starting work, he will make that terrible move-an open general, unexpectedly taking the initiative to destroy his appearance!
But this shocking move did protect him at a critical moment, because no matter what the purpose of this action was. Yue Zhongqi led the army to slaughter Jiangxia Town, but there was also a very reasonable reason: I was assassinated by officers and men of Jiangxia Town for no reason, and my face was ruined. Now I am leading my men to fight back and kill everyone in Jiangxia town. What's the matter? As a soldier and general of the Qing Dynasty, shouldn't he be allowed to strike back when he was assassinated?
So the Jiangxia Town incident, on the surface, Yue Zhongqi has always existed as a pawn of Nian Gengyao, but in fact, he pretended to be careless, but it also showed his full political EQ, which showed his potential attitude-he must always protect himself! And such a person, it is impossible to choose and Nian Gengyao stand together!
However, as a government official, Nian Gengyao was able to become a marshal in the northwest at the peak, and even restrained military affairs in four provinces. His IQ is not enough, and he will never reach such a height. Don't Nian Gengyao know about Yue Zhongqi's career? The answer is no, of course, he knows, and he knows it very well. It is precisely because he saw Yue Zhongqi early in the morning that after many years in the northwest battlefield, the two gradually parted ways.
1. When I heard that Yue Zhongqi could receive the imperial edict of Yongzheng alone, Nian Gengyao became angry from embarrassment and complained that anyone in Northwest Camp could receive the imperial edict of Yongzheng.
Fan Shijie, governor of Gansu Province, complained that his subordinates could not get enough military tents. After communicating with Yue Zhongqi, Yue Zhongqi led troops and horses to Fan Shijie and provided corresponding tents. Nian Gengyao was furious when he heard the news! Nian Gengyao's attempt to establish an independent kingdom in the northwest will continue to unite because the former lieutenant moved without saying hello and even provided military supplies to other factions. Still getting looser and looser?
It can be said that both Nian Gengyao and Yue Zhongqi are prodigies in the military and political fields. They have long seen each other's true colors, and the early cooperation is only their own needs. When Nian Gengyao entered Sichuan as a magistrate, he needed an effective deputy to help him explore the east and the west. Yue Zhongqi, neither a grandpa four party nor a clique of grandpa eight party, needs a platform to be promoted. It is precisely because of their respective needs that they have a short-term cooperation. But this relationship does not mean that Yue Zhongqi will sell her life for immediate interests!
Especially after Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, the Eight Ye Party continued to stir, and Nian Gengyao tried to open his own independent kingdom. In the context of the increasingly fierce and subtle contest between the three, Yue Zhongqi, who can only be regarded as an outsider, can only try to preserve our sanity and further draw a clear line between herself and Nian Gengyao. So he communicated with Yongzheng on the imperial edict and the memorial in time, and let Yongzheng know something he could not learn from Nian Gengyao. He even managed to do what Nian Gengyao didn't want to do, further showing many political factions that he was not entirely from Nian Gengyao!
It is with such wisdom that Yue Zhongqi finally became the person who replaced Nian Gengyao!
