This period of history in the early Qing Dynasty is depressing. Some scholars wrote "The Journey to the South" to bury and eliminate Gong Dingzi. However, at the last moment of his life, the satirized Gong was still running for the future of these Jiangnan scholars. Huang Wu, in order to gain recognition from the Manchus, did more than the Manchus. However, the Qing emperor was not a fool. You will be reused only when you are useful. When you are useless, not only will you live or die, but you will not even be able to save your ancestral graves. Sun Kewang, a leader of the peasant army, learned the essence of party struggle in the Hongguang regime, and fought with style. He has learned to the extreme that he would rather have his head chopped off by foreigners, but would also disgust domestic slaves to death. From the regency of Dorgon to the Council of Ministers, Shunzhi struggled with the constraints of the old power and the implementation of the New Deal. In the end, his wife and children were separated, and his body was covered with bruises. From the auxiliary ministers to the concentration of imperial power, Ao Bai only wanted to be a straight minister and a loyal minister, but he went further and further on the road to power expansion, and was eventually labeled as the most shameful traitor in his life. All living beings are pawns, and those who hold the pawns are bait. Only when the subordinate ministers bite the dogs with laughter can the monarch dominate the power. Intrigues, fights for power, right and wrong, who can tell clearly? Aren't those who play pawns a chess piece? In fact, all overt and covert struggles will be in vain and become sand in the tide. The world cannot see through it, but what is precious is the sincerity and kindness at the beginning of human nature, the integrity accumulated over the years; the gentleness and calmness that can still be seen in adversity, like "the flowers blooming and falling in front of the court, and the clouds roll and relax in the sky."
