This article will simply look at what kind of person Ao Bai is from a historical perspective!
Batulu, a brave warrior, made great contributions to the Qing army's entry into the customs.
According to the Draft of Qing History, Ao Bai was the third son of Wei Qi, a native of Huangqi, Manchuria. At the beginning of this year, Israel made a great contribution to this tax.
He was not only rooted in Hong Miao, but also an official of the Qing Dynasty, and was gradually promoted by the military. In the eighth year of Tiancong, he was appointed as Zhang's envoy and appointed as the viceroy.
During the apocalypse, Mao, a famous soldier who gradually developed in Pidao, was always worried about the development of Shanhaiguan in the late Jin Dynasty. In the second year of Chongde, Huang Taiji prepared to send troops to attack Pidao, and Ao Bai was unusually brave in the battle. He once wrote a written military order: "If we can't wait for this island, we won't come to see the king. I vowed to return to the island. "
Ao Bai fought bravely to kill the enemy, followed by the Qing army who was the first to arrive at Pidao, and captured Pidao in one fell swoop. Huang taiji was very happy to learn that Ao Bai was a third-class soldier with a title? Batulu? .
Batulu is the title of Qing Dynasty samurai. The people who can be crowned with this title in the early Qing Dynasty are all people who have made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty. Ao Bai is also known as the first Batulu in Manchuria, that is, the first warrior in Manchu, which shows how powerful Ao Bai is.
164 1 year, the battle of Jinsong broke out between the Qing army and the Ming dynasty, which was related to the national movement of the Ming and Qing dynasties. In this campaign, Ao Bai took the lead, grasped the fighter plane, and won many battles, which made great contributions to the victory of the Qing army's Jin Song campaign. After the war, Ao Bai became a prominent figure among the Eight Banners generals because of his outstanding military exploits.
After the Qing army entered the customs, it mainly faced Dashun Army headed by Li Zicheng and Daxi Army headed by Zhang. Under the attack of Ao Bai, the peasant army was defeated, especially in the process of defeating the Great Western Army, and Ao Bai contributed a lot.
This is Ao Bai before entering the customs, which has made great contributions to the entry of the Qing army.
Ao Bai was loyal to Emperor Kangxi's grandfather Huang Taiji and his father Shunzhi.
Because of the sudden death of Huang taiji, it was not clear who would inherit the throne, which led to contradictions among the powerful people in Manchuria on the issue of heir to the throne. Among them, the two most competitive candidates are Haug, the eldest son of Huang Taiji, and Dourgen, the younger brother of Huang Taiji.
In terms of strength, Haug has the support of two yellow flags and Dourgen has the support of two white flags. Therefore, it is evenly matched and the situation is extremely grim. Ao Bai was a minister holding a yellow flag at that time and a key figure in the struggle for the throne. Ao Bai and other ministers holding two yellow flags advocated the same thing, that is, the monarch who succeeded to the throne must be the son of Huang Taiji, not his brother.
Dai Shan, Huang Taiji's brother, held a meeting in Chongzheng Hall to discuss the candidate for succession to the throne. Ao Bai ordered the elite of the two yellow flags to be armed to the teeth, guarded the main hall, and even threatened Dourgen by force. "We courtiers eat the food of the first emperor and wear the clothes of the first emperor. The first emperor's kindness to our upbringing is as high as the sky and as high as the sea. If you don't set up the son of the first emperor, you would rather die than go underground! "
Under the shock of Ao Bai and others, Dourgen set out from the overall situation and was afraid of war, so he had to give in. However, Dourgen also put forward the condition that Hogg was not allowed to inherit the throne, and finally chose Shunzhi to inherit the throne, which was also the result of the efforts of Ao Bai and others.
After Shunzhi acceded to the throne, he did not forget Ao Bai and others. It is recorded in the Draft of the History of Qing Dynasty? Sai-jo took the achievements of ministers as an example, and with Ao Bai's loyalty and diligence, he was promoted to the first class. ?
However, Ao Bai became a thorn in the side of Regent Dourgen. After Dourgen took power, he began to suppress Ao Bai many times. Ao Bai was almost killed by Dourgen, and was constantly demoted. It was not until Dourgen's death that Shunzhi came to power and Ao Bai came out.
There is a record in the draft of Qing history:? Sai-jo personally ruled and awarded the Minister of State. Progressive second-class male, hereditary. I was promoted as a minister among the guards, and the accumulated young master was also the Crown Prince. 18, he was appointed to assist the government. ?
In his later years, he was arrogant and self-respecting. Ao Bai was dismissed by Kangxi.
When Shunzhi died, Ao Bai was not an assistant minister, but was assisted by Sony, Suksaha, Qiba Bilong and Ao Bai. In terms of ranking, Ao Bai came last.
However, among the four assistant ministers, Sony, though in a high position, is old and sick and doesn't care about politics. Suksaha is Ao Bai's sworn enemy, and they often argue and fight in court. It was one of Ao Bai's cronies who flinched.
In this case, Ao Bai gradually embarked on the road of authoritarianism. Gu's appointment was rated as the most successful person. Since Sony died, Ao Bai has been ranked first? The party is selfish. Everything is decided by the family and then implemented. The gain and loss of Shi Nianzhi should be written by Chen Zhi, but it is evil, so please don't play it officially. Go to pro-government, add a first-class male, and his son Namfu will attack a first-class male. Sai-jo with heaven, plus surname, Shao Shi, Prince of Nanfu. ?
After Sony's death, Ao Bai became a crony and autocratic power minister. Actually, Kangxi was in power personally, but Ao Bai didn't want to return to politics, resulting in Kangxi's own politics and Ao Bai's own politics. During this period, Ao Bai even accused Suha Saha, a fellow assistant minister, together with the clique network, and finally killed him, which also made the contradiction between Ao Bai and Kangxi rise.
Until the eighth year of Kangxi, Kangxi couldn't bear it any longer and carried out the plan to bring down Ao Bai. When Ao Bai entered the palace to visit Kangxi, Kangxi ordered his men to catch Ao Bai. According to the law of overthrowing everyone, how loyal his followers are to Ao Bai, he wants to kill Ao Bai to get rid of the relationship with Ao Bai. At that time, the minister listed 30 counts of Ao Bai, which should be beheaded according to the Qing law, but Kangxi did not directly kill Ao Bai.
In this regard, Kangxi's statement is Ao Bai? I have served for a long time and can't bear to be punished, but I don't have a professional title. ? According to Bai Jin, a French missionary, at that time, Ao Bai requested an audience with Kangxi to show him the scars he left to save his grandfather Huang Taiji. When Kangxi saw it, he appreciated Ao Bai's contribution, so he was lenient with him, avoiding the death penalty, and living punishment was inevitable. Ao Bai was subsequently imprisoned.
Follow-up report on Ao Bai's death:
However, the story about Ao Bai did not end there. In the later years of Kangxi, I thought of Ao Bai's early contribution. Give a posthumous gift to the first-class Ashhani Hafan to attack the grandson. Surh's minions are still attacking Magodayu in Ao Bai. ?
This move is unexpected. If Ao Bai is really a villain, why did Kangxi do this in his later years? It is believed that Kangxi may have realized that Ao Bai was not a rebel, but unwilling to give up power.
Judging from Ao Bai's diehard loyalty to Huang Taiji and Shunzhi, it is not necessarily anti-Kangxi. Ao Bai's tragic ending was actually caused by the strengthening of absolute monarchy in Qing Dynasty. Under the situation of the supremacy of imperial power, an assistant minister like Ao Bai, whether loyal or treacherous, will come to no good end. This can be seen from Shang Yang and Zhang in ancient China.
During the Yongzheng period, Ao Bai was not only restored as the first-class duke, but also allowed to be hereditary, completely rehabilitating Ao Bai.
Of course, it's not over yet. Forty-five years after Qianlong, the unjust, false and misjudged cases in history began to be set right. Yongzheng rehabilitated Ao Bai, and Qianlong was overthrown: "Ao Bai was in power that day, but he dared to take advantage of the law and invited party member to harm the minister. His crimes are numerous. "
And announce it to the ministers? Chasing Ao Bai's crime, not attacking the Duke, but still attacking the first-class man; He also ordered those who were deprived of their posts by Ao Bai to observe and record their descendants. ?
It can be seen that the complexity of Ao Bai's character is beyond one or two sentences. From the perspective of human nature, there are not only two kinds of loyalty and treachery, but also different images in different periods and backgrounds. Of course, it is no problem to strengthen the image of historical figures from literary and artistic works, but it is obviously not enough to identify them as historical images.
