Historical evaluation of Zhao Ningxia

After Zhao Ningxia's death, Emperor Gaozong of North Korea issued a letter praising Zhao Ningxia, saying, "What a terrible disaster!" ! This important minister has been praised by the government and the people because of his practical ability, his knowledge of Putonghua, his relatives in his heart, his trust in his heart and his sincerity in defending the country. Because of this, the fierce party hated it, and the poison front came unexpectedly, which made people tremble with fear. Do you think this is a law? "At the same time, Zhao also received courtesy from senior officials of various sects in Ningxia and came to pay homage.

Huang Da, a scholar at that time, commented on Zhao Ningxia: "Ningxia is slender and commensurate with the crane shape. Good at riding, chivalrous and kind. I have been worried about the king since noon. And death, people cherish it. " According to records, after the news of Zhao Ningxia's death came out, "the people in Beijing cried." The Qing Dynasty also spoke highly of him, and Shen Bao commented on him: "Zhaojun Ningxia is a kind man, gentle and gentle, but he knows that he is a good man. Before I went to China to enlist soldiers, I cried alone. The Chinese army crossed the east, the civil strife was flat, and the merits were the greatest. " Ma, who was brought to North Korea by Zhao Ningxia as a consultant and was closely related to it, was called "a farsighted near minister of North Korea".

However, Hua Kai and party member, a pro-Japanese faction, gave Zhao Ningxia a low evaluation. Jin said that Zhao Ningxia had a "damn crime", while Park said that because "Zhao Ningxia is really an ignorant figure, he showed no concern for the country and only knew how to flatter Zhina." Because Zhao Ning was killed by Hua Kai Party in the summer, and Huakai Party is regarded as a progressive force by historians in North Korea and China today, Zhao Ningxia is called "old school" in relevant works in North Korea and China.
