Why didn't anyone dare to pick up Jin Chai when Cixi visited her? Meng Enyuan picked it up and gave it to Cixi. Why did he become a general?

During the Republic of China, many generals had nicknames, such as dog general Zhang Zongchang, toilet general Wang Huaiqing, grave robber general Sun Dianying and teapot general Cao Ying. Meng Enyuan also has a nickname? Pick up the general .

He this? Pick up the general The origin of his nickname is that he once found a valuable hair clasp of Cixi, but was unexpectedly promoted to general.

Some people will say that he is lucky because he became a general because of a hair clasp. Actually, it is not. His intelligence was fully reflected when picking up the hair clasp, so he became a general. A general can't become a general by luck.

What the hell is going on here? Here I will give you a detailed analysis.

Meng Enyuan was originally just a small vendor selling fish and shrimp in Xinigu Village, Tianjin, and his life was embarrassed.

When Yuan Shikai came to tianjin railway station for training, he gave many local people the opportunity to join the army, so Meng Enyuan joined the army, but at this time Meng Enyuan was not young, almost forty years old.

1896, Yuan Shikai got very good results in training the new army in tianjin railway station. Cixi was overjoyed when she learned that she immediately went to Tianjin to review the new army.

After Cixi arrived at the station, with the help of eunuchs, she toured the new army units that had been waiting in line for a long time. She was very happy to see the new army troops in high spirits and heroic spirit. So, while looking around at the army, a rather rare and precious hair clasp on his head accidentally fell off his head and was not found.

Cixi didn't notice, nor did the eunuch who helped her, but Yuan Shikai and some officers who followed him saw the hair clasp fall, but they didn't say a word. Why?

Because Yuan Shikai and the officers and ministers around him know that Cixi is superstitious, and it is unlucky to lose her hairpin. If Cixi was happy to let her know that she had lost her hair clasp, wouldn't it spoil Lafayette's fun? I don't know if I can kill my head, but at least I can't get promoted if I sweep Galeries Lafayette. Therefore, Yuan Shikai and others were afraid that Lafayette would be angry and did not dare to pick it up.

Just when everyone was afraid to pick it up, Meng Enyuan, Yuan Shikai's guard, suddenly ran to pick it up and knelt at Cixi's feet with a hair clasp.

Cixi suddenly froze, and it took a while to recover. She knew that she had dropped her hair clasp and was about to speak when Meng Enyuan suddenly said something, namely? Phoenix landed back in Foshan? . Cixi loves to call Lafayette, do you hear? Foshan? I am very happy. After listening to Meng Enyuan's clever words, I sat up happily and noticed Meng Enyuan's sweet mouth.

After the incident, Cixi suggested that Yuan Shikai could reuse Meng Enyuan, and praised him for being smart and capable. Cixi also praised Yuan Shikai by the way and said:? Master Yuan is really well trained to train such a smart person. ?

Due to the attention of Cixi and Meng Enyuan's praise in front of Yuan Shikai's Lafayette, Meng Enyuan was promoted immediately. Since then, Meng Enyuan almost rose step by step, and soon he took the position of General Zhen Anzuo, who was in charge of Jilin military affairs.

Therefore, Meng Enyuan became a general not by luck, but by his own flexible brain and intelligence. At that time, many people could stand up and pick up the hair clasp, but only Meng Enyuan dared to come out and turned Cixi's anger into joy. Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.
