Kangxi favored Mingzhu so much that he ran away from Suo'etu. Later, he was impeached by the imperial censor Guo Xiu and had nothing to say. Kangxi still made him an "internal minister", which was an irrefutable mistake.
Mingzhu knows how to observe words and emotions, and understands Kangxi's emotions and joys. He may not have any prejudice against Prince Yinreng at first, but because he wants to deal with Suo'etu, he must take action against Yinreng, because Prince Yinreng's biological mother Xiaocheng The queen is Suo'etu's niece.
Suo'etu was named "Prince Taifu" in the eleventh year of Kangxi. At that time, Prince Yinfeng was not even born yet, and the Crown Prince and Tutor was just an "additional official" (virtual title).
Unfortunately, Empress Xiaocheng died in childbirth on the day she gave birth to Yinreng.
Kangxi may have been unable to let go of his love for Hesheli (Queen Xiaocheng), so he attached this feeling to Yinreng, and directly named him the prince when Yinreng was only one year and seven months old. Kangxi personally taught him how to read, and invited Zhang Ying (the father of Zhang Tingyu), Li Guangdi, Xiong Cilu and others to be the prince's teachers. In the 25th year of Kangxi's reign, he invited Tang Bin and Geng Jie to serve as Zhan Shifu respectively. "Shao Zhan Shi", in order to assist the prince.
It is worth noting that neither Tang Bin nor Geng Jie was a fan of Mingzhu, so Mingzhu often slandered and said bad things in front of Kangxi. These two people worked together for less than a year. Geng Jie resigned, and Tang Bin was furious to death. This also proved the arrogance of the literati.
Among the thirty-five sons of Kangxi, Yinreng was not the most capable, but he could be said to be the best. First of all, from the perspective of Chineseization, he learned all the Manchu and Chinese characters, and also knew some skills of riding and shooting. When Kangxi personally conquered Galdan for the second time, he stayed in Beijing as the prince to "reside" and deal with several There is no mistake in the memorial.
However, when Kangxi conquered Galdan for the third time in the forty-sixth year of his reign, Yinreng stayed there again. This time, several things happened, which angered Kangxi.
First of all, they beat Pingjun Wang Nersu, Beile Haishan, and Zhenguo Gong Puqi.
Then, he seized the horses that the Mongols paid as tribute.
Finally, Ling Pu, the husband of the indulgent wet nurse and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, blackmailed the servant.
In the forty-seventh year of the next year, when he went hunting in August, the eighteenth son of the emperor fell ill and stayed in Baiang'a. Kangxi returned to Luan to see the child's illness, and Yinreng also accompanied him to visit. Kangxi felt that Yinreng had nothing to do with his younger brother's illness: "I approached Puteng (the emperor's tent) every night and peeked through the cracks." He also felt that "I don't know whether I will be killed today or killed tomorrow, so I will be vigilant day and night."
When he went hunting in Burha Sutai in September of the same year, Prince Yinfeng and the emperor's eldest son Yinti (zhi) were with him. On the 16th of this month, Kangxi summoned the princes and ministers, read out the charges against the prince, and abolished them on the spot. He took the crown prince and handed him over to Yinti's care.
The prince's biggest crime, apart from the above, is actually wanting to avenge Suo'etu.
Suo'etu was arrested by Kangxi five years ago (in May of the 42nd year of Kangxi) on the charge of "discussing state affairs arbitrarily". He was imprisoned and died in prison soon after. After Suo'etu's death, his crime was expanded from "discussing state affairs indiscriminately" to "conspiracy to commit major events." But if it was really "conspiracy to commit major events," how could he just be detained? We said before that Kangxi was affectionate and lenient, but that was the way to deal with corruption. As long as there is a little bit of this serious crime of rebellion, it is better to deal with it than to indulge it. It is the most effective way to deal with it.
As for Prince Yinfeng wanting to avenge Suo'etu, it is even more unjust. This is obvious and comes from the tone of the Pearl Party members.
After Kangxi deposed the crown prince, he felt that letting Yinzhen guard it alone was not enough, so he sent the fourth son of the emperor, Yinzhen, to share the responsibility. At that time, Yinzhen was just a Baylor, and he was named King Yongjun the next year.
Yinti knew that he had no chance of becoming the prince, but he still wanted to become an enemy of Yinreng. He hired a lama to use sorcery to make Yinreng crazy. It is unknown whether Yinreng was really crazy. After Yinreng was deposed, he put forward two opinions to Kangxi: the eighth son of the emperor, Yinhu, had the appearance of an emperor and should be made a prince; if the emperor wanted to kill Yinreng, he did not have to do it himself.
When Kangxi heard his eldest son saying such stupid things, he was furious and imprisoned Yinti. From then on, he also had prejudices against his eighth son Yinti.
The one Mingzhu wanted to establish most was Yinhu. He once asked Wang Hongxu to formally recommend Yinhu, and got Kangxi's back. However, Kangxi did not know that Mingzhu was officially the culprit behind Yinreng's problems.
What kind of character is this Yinsu? His mother's name is Liangfei, and her background cannot be tested. Yinsu is still very talented, and we can also see it from Yongzheng's "Edict".
After Kangxi deposed Yinfeng, he dismissed Ling Pu, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, ransacked his house, and appointed Yinhu as "the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Yinti's small circle is about to emerge, including several ministers in the court, such as Aling'a, Elundai, and others, as well as several princes, such as Yinti, Yinzhen, and Yin'e (actually it is Yupang, but I can't find it) ) and Yinhu have always been on good terms with Yinhu. When they saw Kangxi appointing Yinhu to important positions, they thought that Kangxi wanted to make Yinhu the crown prince. Zhang Mingde, a fortune teller who saw that Yinzhu had the appearance of an emperor from the beginning, was overjoyed.
As a result, within a few days, Kangxi said that Yinhu was "a treacherous character, had great ambitions, and joined forces with gang members to murder Yinreng." This once again aroused the fury of Thunder and had Yinhu removed from his post and arrested. Zhang Mingde, a prime minister, was handed over to the ministers of the State Council for trial. After the trial, he was sentenced to Lingchi. Puqi, the Duke of Zhenguo who was attached to Yinhu, was also dismissed as a duke.
After Kangxi punished his three sons one after another (the eldest son Yinti, the prince Yinfeng, and the eighth son Yinhu), he regretted it and soon released Yinfeng and lived in Xian'an Palace. He also restored Yinhu's title of Baylor, but Yinhu's title of Baylor was restored. Ti was imprisoned all the time (until he died of illness in the twelfth year of Yongzheng's reign).
In the forty-eighth year of Kangxi's reign, Kangxi made Yinreng the prince again. Nearly four years later, on September 30, the fifty-first year of Kangxi's reign, he deposed him for the second time. The charge this time was that he had narrated information on behalf of the infantry commander Tuo Heqi and several other convicted corrupt officials.
Kangxi deposed the prince Yinfeng this time, but he still lived in Xian'an Palace, but was not allowed to go out, that is, he was detained. Kangxi said, "Yinreng's appearance, knowledge, talents and skills are all impressive, but his behavior is perverse, unkind and unfilial. How can he be other than crazy?" Kangxi directly said that Yinreng was crazy, but the reason for his madness was not that Kangxi said that he was crazy. Mental illness, but that he made bad friends, causing his mind to wander.
Three more years later, in November of the 54th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, Yinreng was impatient with the days of imprisonment. He wrote invisible characters in alum water and asked someone to take him out and give it to Puqi, so that Puqi could move the ministers in the court. Afterwards, he could Make him a general. This is indeed an act of confusion. Not to mention whether Puqi is willing or not, three years have passed and there have been so many changes in the ministers of the DPRK. How can you still move? The result was that Pucci suffered again.
In the fifty-seventh year of Kangxi's reign, Kangxi appointed the emperor's fourteenth son Yinhui as the "Fuyuan General" and stationed in Xining. He promoted Sichuan Governor Nian Gengyao to the governor of Sichuan and stationed in Chengdu to deal with Cewang Alabutan, the leader of Junggar who was preparing to invade Tibet.
As a result, Yin Reng's social status declined more and more, and some ministers in the court who had been favored by Yin Reng could not sit still, and prepared to persuade Kangxi to make Yin Reng the prince for the third time.
In the fifty-seventh year of Kangxi's reign, scholar Wang Peng and other eight imperial censors wrote to him one after another, saying that they wanted to establish a prince as soon as possible, but they did not dare to name Yin Reng. Their memorials were shelved by Kangxi and no reply was given.
The next year, the Hanlin Academy also took action, and this time Yin Reng's name was revealed. As a result, Kangxi killed the leader, and several accomplices were either flogged or imprisoned.
In the 60th year of Kangxi's reign, Wang Feng risked his life to recommend Yinreng. As a result, Kangxi was furious and punished Wang Feng for exile in the army. As a result, Wang Feng was too old to go, so Kangxi asked a son to go instead.
Yinreng was imprisoned in Xian'an Palace forever.
In November of the 61st year of Kangxi's reign, Aixinjueluo Xuanye and the Emperor Kangxi, the ancestor of the Qing Dynasty, passed away. The person who came to the throne was not Yinfeng who was recommended by important people, not Yinhu who had many friends, or Yinhu who led troops outside, but a silent man. Yinzhen, the fourth son who is an official and strives not to argue.
As for whether there is a mystery about Yinzhen's accession to the throne, later generations of literati carried out a lot of slander and slander. The first is the first version, which says that he killed the king and usurped the throne. What kind of person is Kangxi, especially his alertness and loyalty to the prince in his later years? It is clear that he has a less calm personality and is more suitable as a military commander.
The second version is that the widely circulated "Fourteenth Son" was changed to "Fourth Son". Not to mention that the Chinese written at that time was not "Yu" as we see it now, but "Yu". Since Huang Taiji How do you modify the "Three-Body" text at the beginning? You can modify it in Chinese, but Mongolian and Manchu cannot be modified.
Regarding the Zeng Jing case that occurred in the Yongzheng Dynasty later, Emperor Yongzheng wrote the "Dayi Jue Mi Lu", which was intended to be passed on to the people of the world to see how these people abused him. This version is wrong, but the people are Foolishly, they only believe in the events they want to happen, and prefer the fictitious words, so the subsequent results are not as expected. Seeing this situation, Emperor Qianlong banned "Dayi Jue Mi Lu" when he came to the throne. As a result, there was an additional layer of suspicion in the hearts of the people. They suspected that the things written in this book were true. This led to Emperor Yongzheng's Various unofficial slanders.
Of course, this is also related to Yongzheng's policies. Touching vested interests will inevitably lead to counterattacks. This is true for any reform at home and abroad in ancient and modern times. Shang Yang died in a car crash, Wang Anshi dismissed the prime minister twice, and Zhang Juzheng was liquidated after his death. We will talk about it later. Yongzheng's fire consumption was returned to the public and divided into acres.
