Among the many emperors of the Qing Dynasty, the most outstanding emperors were the three emperors of Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong, who during their reigns, created the only "Kangqian prosperous era" of the Qing Dynasty, pushing China to the highest economic peak in history, and was also the leader in the world at that time. Because of his outstanding merits, Kangxi was given the title of "Holy Ancestor" by Yongzheng, and Kangxi was also the longest-reigning emperor in Chinese history.
The Kangxi Emperor ascended to the throne at the age of 8, and at the age of 14, he eliminated the powerful minister at that time, Aobai, and since then began to pro-government, not only stabilizing the frontier turmoil at that time, but also making the Great Qing Dynasty prosperous, which was the beginning of the prosperity of Kangqian, and was called the only "emperor of the Qing Dynasty" by modern historians. It is a pity that because the Kangxi Emperor reigned for too long, he was vague on the issue of li chu in his later years, which triggered the "nine sons and concubines".
After the death of the Kangxi Emperor, the winner was the later Yongzheng Emperor. During the reign of Yongzheng, it played a very beneficial role in promoting the development of the Prosperous Era of Kangqian, and the national treasury of the Qing Dynasty also became very abundant. Yongzheng every day from morning to night, except for the Shang Dynasty, basically used work to accompany his entire life, so he worked hard to govern, in fact, the means were very fierce, after he came to power, he dealt with and imprisoned all the brothers who were involved in the conquest at that time.
Today we are going to talk about the two dynasties of Kangxi Yongzheng, and it is closely related to the two of them, saying that the eldest son of the emperor at that time, Yin Zhen, was the emperor during the Kangxi dynasty. In the relevant film and television themes, Yin Zhen has always been a brother who is lustful and ruthless, and has thus been disqualified from competing for the throne and ended up in a miserable end.
The depiction of Yin Zhen may not be as faint as the film and television theme, or perhaps just to show the victory of the Yongzheng Emperor, after all, Kangxi has always loved him very much before, and must have his own superiority. For Yin Zhen's true character and ability, we can learn from relevant canonical historical documents to obtain answers.
In the records of the Qing History Manuscript, Liechuan VII and Kings VI, Yin Zhen was the oldest and most meritorious emperor among the princes at that time, and at a time when the princes had not yet formed a climate, Yin Zhen had already made many contributions, and Kangxi was also very fond of Yin Zhen.
In fact, above the court at that time, the story of the nine sons taking the concubine had not yet happened, but the eldest son of the emperor at that time, Yin Zhen, was very strong and very strong, and he had the strength to compete with the then crown prince Yin Rong. Moreover, at that time, the important ministers above the imperial court were more inclined to the side of the emperor's eldest son, not the Yin Rong who had been made crown prince.
The reason why the two princes were deposed one after another was the intrigue between the princes. After Yin Rong was deposed by the Kangxi Emperor at that time, the emperor's eldest son Yin Rong immediately sent a complete attack to Kangxi shang to kill Yin Rong. You know, both of them were Kangxi's favorite princes, but now they have become fierce and cannibalistic, which is also the reason for Kangxi's anger, and therefore completely imprisoned the two.
During The reign of Kangxi, the eldest son of the Emperor, Yin Zhen, never received forgiveness and forgiveness from his father, and did not release Yin Zhen from his mansion until Kangxi's death. And later after Yongzheng came to power, he continued to impose a plan to imprison him, until Yongzheng died of illness twelve years later, and Qianlong did not cancel his crime after coming to power, and he stayed in his mansion for 26 years without leaving.
Speaking of how Yin Zhen felt during these 26 years, it can only be described as boring. But this boredom is not boring, Yin Zhen's boredom is 26 years of trepidation, just imagine as a royal nobleman who has always been high and noble, he can't even go out of the door within this eaves, and even less free than an ordinary person, this psychological gap is really too big.
Conclusion: Among all the royal disciples, Yin Zhen can be said to have been the most powerful one, naturally there will not be too few people around to worship, plus he is deeply favored by Kangxi, so he is very optimistic about competing for the throne, thinking that he must stand out. Under such circumstances, Yin Yu ended up in a prison situation, and the bitterness and unwillingness in his heart naturally needless to say can be felt.
The most direct impact is that Yin Zhen has given birth to 20 heirs in 26 years, so the fertility of this efficiency can also be seen that Yin Zhen has been negative to the extreme. Not only did he have sex with several of his wives, but he also very frantically made the servants, maids, and other people in the mansion a way to dispel his sorrows and paralysis. The ruthlessness of this imperial family was vividly displayed in the emperor's eldest son, Yin Zhen.
