In the eyes of Koreans at that time, the Qing Dynasty was nothing more than the Hu Dynasty. They secretly disagreed, and even called the Qing emperor Huang Hu. Therefore, in Yan Lu Hang, they recorded the experience of North Korean envoys coming to China.
"Qing master is not a middleman, but his eyes are floating, his eyes are small and colorless, his cheekbones are slightly exposed, and his cheeks are bald and pointed. He needs to bend over in Taohuawu to look back at the list of envoys to China. He was impatient and furious, and he realized it himself, and punished the minister of the auxiliary government for arbitrarily planting it.
In short, Emperor Kangxi was short in stature, short-tempered and irritable.
The portraits described by Kangxi in the Dutch envoy's trip to Tatar are very close. Kangxi is of medium height, kind, steady and dignified. In the eyes of Europeans, Kangxi was a dignified and wise monarch, which may be due to the worship of Europeans at that time and can only be used for reference. Kangxi, recorded by French missionaries, was very kind and conspicuous, but his face was flawed. The French record is close to the Qing Shi Lu. When Kangxi was a child, he got smallpox and left marks on his face, which was normal. In contrast, Kangxi's description in Yan Xing Lu is the most unacceptable.
We are influenced by all kinds of movies and TV plays. Most of the actors who play Kangxi on the screen are handsome in appearance and extraordinary in temperament, which accords with our imagination of "the king of a country" Therefore, Kangxi in the ancient note Yan Luhang is unacceptable to most netizens.
