What kind of person is Chongzhen?

Chongzhen acceded to the throne, and the country was at the right moment. There were millions of peasants rebelling inside and Manchuria fighters waiting for them outside. The mountains and rivers were left out, and smoke was everywhere. He is decisive and resolute, such as dealing with the eunuch case, but he is also cautious, suspicious and indecisive, such as being busy first or settling down first, and has been undecided, so he missed the country; There is a cruel and heartless side, and there is also a soft-hearted side. After weeks, they respect and love each other. He has strong self-control, does not care about dogs and horses, is not good at women, and lives a simple life; He also often seeks the opinions of the left and right factions, but he is willful and can't be open-minded about what can be taught; He is familiar with people such as Yuan Chonghuan, Yang Sichang and Hong Chengchou. They were obedient and had a good time when they were appointed. Once enemies are turned against each other, they are cruel and ruthless, and they are killed endlessly, which leads to the incompetence of employing people, and Chongzhen faces a situation of fifty phases. He sympathizes with the sufferings of the Lebanese people and often writes a letter to himself, but he plunders the people's ointment and sends too many people to put them in trouble; He made great efforts to govern, often asked about political gains and losses, and discussed with his aides the way to rise and fall. He observes politics and does everything himself. He wants to be the master of ZTE, but he is eager to seek treatment, and he blames me for being too sudden and making people panic. It is often said that he has no humanity and eventually becomes lonely. As for the martyrdom in Jingshan Park, he was the only eunuch of the deceased. The evaluation of the four cases in Ming History is: "After the emperor inherited God and Xi, he was full of hope. At the beginning of his reign, Ji Shen acted arbitrarily, seeking peace in the world. It's a pity that the tide has gone, and it's hard to get used to it. Controversy in court. Territory will be arrogant and lazy. The shortage of soldiers has been reported four times, and the bandits have dispersed. Unfortunately, it will fester and cannot be saved. However, he has been in office for more than 17 years, and has been quietly, worried about encouragement, and managed with heart. When you sighed in the imperial court, you thought very well, but it was good to use bandits. It is because I trust eunuchs, attach importance to important places, act improperly and form a good party. It's not because of luck, you just moved and changed your body. In the end, the evil spirit was swept away, and the emperor had to build a mausoleum generously. If it is true, the sacred dynasty will flourish. The more eternal it is, the more it can know the suffering of the emperor without humiliating him, which is a righteous death for the country. "Historian Meng Sen said:" Before Wanli, you were not the king of national subjugation; After the apocalypse, you will die! ".Although the four cases had the heart of governing the country, they did not have a good prescription for governing the country, which led to the tragedy of national subjugation, and it was not necessarily without fault. Meng Sen also said that four cases were "too harsh for their own use, too ignorant of others" and "too unsympathetic to the people". The lack of staff, excessive suspicion and strict management of the four cases, known in history as "Fifty Phases of Chongzhen" (in the seventeenth year of his reign, fifty cabinet Jinshi and records were replaced), accelerated the demise of the Ming Dynasty. Sizong's personality is quite complicated. Besides Wei Zhongxian, Chongzhen is more witty, but he is quite stupid on Yuan Chonghuan. Yuan Chonghuan, like a madman, told Chongzhen to recover Liaodong within five years. Chongzhen is crazy, too, and really believes it. It was not until a year later that Yuan Chonghuan finally paid a heavy price for his boasting. As the scholar said, "in four cases, wit and stupidity, boldness and stubbornness, cleverness and unconsciousness are both." Historians generally sympathize with the four cases and think that the life of Emperor Chongzhen is really "a tragedy of national subjugation that is not the monarch of national subjugation". In order to suppress bandits, Ming Sizong first used Yang He as his teacher, then Hong Chengchou, Cao Wenzhao, Chen Qiyu, Hong Chengchou, Lu Xiangsheng, Yang Sichang, Xiong Wencan and Yang Sichang. In thirteen years, the leaders of the peasant army changed frequently. Among them, except Xiong Wencan, everyone else showed outstanding talent. However, he kept raising taxes, and people called him "heavy levy" instead of "Chongzhen", which also made the peasant uprising in the late Ming Dynasty "wildfire started and the spring breeze blew high". Although Ming Sizong was looking forward to welcoming the "Zhongxing" in the Ming Dynasty, it was difficult to return to the accumulation of past dynasties. At that time, the world was hungry, the epidemic disease was great, the local people rebelled constantly, and Huang Taiji in the north harassed and invaded constantly. In addition, Ming Sizong was eager to seek treatment, suspicious and headstrong, so he repeatedly made big mistakes in court affairs: he eliminated autocratic eunuchs in the early stage and reused eunuchs in the later stage; Under the flattery of ministers, Chongzhen overestimated Yuan Chonghuan, mistakenly believed Yuan Chonghuan's boasting of "recovering Liao country in five years", and built Ningjin defense line with the power of dumping the country. As a result, the Manchu bypassed Mongolia, and the Ming Dynasty faced a catastrophe. In Gan Long's personal revision of The Legend of A Thief in Ming Taizu, he said: "When Zhuang Lie succeeded to the throne, the civilian party bureau, the grassland material resources were consumed, the national laws and regulations were destroyed, and the frontier was robbed. Although Zhuang Lie is keen to start over, he only manages nuclear affairs in name. However, whether talents are talented or not, the right and wrong, the gains and losses of political affairs, and the success or failure of military aircraft are not seen at home and will not waver outside. Suspicious and allowed to check, so rigid and angry. Any inspection is harsh and ungrateful, and you will lose your head when you get angry. Thieves and thieves are everywhere, and those who appoint political leaders are either mediocre or clumsy, suppressing both ends and achieving nothing. Ministers at home and abroad have saved lives and refused to give them. People who speak directly and to the point will be eliminated. He was appointed as a handsome man, with great power and great merits. The loser will kill a general, and the city will kill an official. Reward and punishment are too clear, punishment is not allowed, and management is too strict. Natural disasters are prevalent, hunger is rampant, politics is complicated and external rebellion is rampant. For example, a person's body is full of vitality, gangrene is toxic, and syncope is already very dangerous, but the doctor is good, the medicine is hot and cold, and he is terminally ill, but he can't save it. Why not die? It is Ming Wu, and it dies by thieves, and the root of its death is not thieves. Oh! Zhuang Lie was not the king of national subjugation, but he lacked the skill of saving the country when he was fortunate in national subjugation. He was in a state of anxiety and confusion, and in the last ten years, he survived seven years. But I didn't listen to the peace plan, and I didn't see the generals of Li and Guo between the lines. I am dead, subverting the Zongshe, and I am a martyr! "The Ming history compiled by the Qing Dynasty still admits that he is conscientious and diligent. Chongzhen's life is full of tragedies. He has a strong political skill, careful thinking, decisive and capable, and full of energy. He has almost all the characteristics of a wise king in history: the merits and demerits of Chongzhen are controversial, and he is one of the most tragic emperors in China history. The word "powerless" can sum up Chongzhen's life. Emperor Chongzhen would rather commit suicide in Jingshan Park than transfer Ningyuan fighters to the Central Plains to fight against Li Zicheng, and kept the promise made by the Ming emperor to his subjects since Judy.
