? In the history of our country, there are many controversial figures and topics, such as whether Shang Zhouwang and Yang Di are heinous bad kings. Whether Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin was killed by his brother Zhao Guangyi, and so on, these questions abound. Everyone has his own opinion, which is also the wonder of history. Today, we are controversial figures in history. Zhang Dun.

I. Lifelong achievements

Zhang Dun, a native of Pucheng, Jianning Army, the son of Zhang Yu, a doctor of Guanglu, Yin Qing, is well-read, handsome and arrogant. In the second year of Jiayou (1057), he was a scholar and worked in a local area with remarkable achievements. After crossing the Nanbei River, pacifying Hubei, developing Hunan, setting up counties, opening up the southwest, unifying the separatist forces in the mainland, making outstanding contributions to the development of the south of the Yangtze River and participating in the reform of Ningxia. After the old Party came to power, Zhang Dun opposed the abolition of the new law and relegated Ruzhou. In the eighth year of Yuan You (1093), Zhang Dun worshipped the Prime Minister, severely punished his words, and was in power. He denounced the old Party, formed Jinning Army and Longyou Army, abandoned poems and taxes, managed the Yellow River, communicated with the water system, reformed the official system, and got rid of subjects, scholars and officials, making outstanding contributions.

Loyalty and betrayal are indistinguishable.

When we look at history, we will see that Zhang Dun was a great traitor. He was eager for quick success and instant benefit, regardless of the safety of the people, which led to the poverty of the people in the Song Dynasty. However, if we analyze him in detail, we will know that Zhang Dun is not liked by most people, especially those royal nobles and ministers in high positions, because Zhang Dun supported Wang Anshi's political reform, and he himself became the host of the later political reform. These people hate him because he violated their interests. But because of Zhang Dun's strong temper, as long as someone makes mistakes, even if he is Wang Anshi's younger brother. So Wang Anshi also fell out with him, which also made those who hated him label him ungrateful. Even later, even Zhang Dun's selfless act did not smuggle Luke into his son's knighthood, which became his crime. Therefore, it is understandable that the official slander of Zhang Dun in the Song Dynasty was included in the traitor list.

Zhang Dun was listed as a traitor in history, but in the Northern Song Dynasty, he was an epoch-making prime minister and an iron-blooded prime minister, which was indelible. He is capable and innovative, but some mistakes caused by his personality are also worthy of criticism.
