Introduction: Such a question does not lie in whose level is high, and the high level does not necessarily dare to say. Yongzheng did not ask Zhang Tingyu but asked Li Wei with two meanings: First, Li Wei was a servant of the family, and Zhang Tingyu was a foreign minister. Yong is Li Wei's master, and this matter cannot be publicized on the premise that the ugliness of the family cannot be publicized. Even if he finally killed Hiroshi, it is estimated that he would have to report a violent illness and die. Second, Zhang Tingyu is a foreign minister, and he will definitely not mix with the emperor's family, otherwise there will be endless troubles. Even if you ask, there will be no answer, so Yongzheng only asks Li Wei.
Historical background
Hongshi was not the material for the emperor, but he was ambitious at the instigation of Lao Ba. First colluding with Zhang Tinglu to build his own team in scientific research and fraud unfortunately failed; later, he joined forces with Lao Ba to force the palace to engage in the Discussion of the Eight Kings, intending to come to power in advance but failed. Then he saw that Prince Bao Hongli was becoming more and more valued, and he attempted to assassinate Hongli to achieve his own goals. However, yongzheng found out, and Sentulichen and Li Wei led five hundred elites to escort Hongli back to Beijing.
This time Hongshi was exposed, and it was said that tiger poison did not eat children, but the existence of Hongshi had affected the stability of the Qing Dynasty and the effective inheritance of the throne. This made Yongzheng very embarrassed, so he later asked Li Wei about Li Wei when he entered Beijing.
As for Yongzheng's reasons for asking Li Wei instead of Zhang Tingyu, there are two reasons:
First, what kind of person Is Li Wei, a stray man who Yongzheng collected when he went to Jiangnan to raise funds for disaster relief when he was the Prince of Yong. In addition to Li Wei, there were xiao cui and Kan'er, both of whom were taken in by Yin Chan and made slaves in the palace. Li Wei was grateful for the kindness of the Four Princes, and completed the task well during the disaster relief period and in the later wanyong pawnshop to obtain the top secret of the hundred officials.
Later, Li Wei was sent to jiangsu to be the governor and even promoted to the governor of Liangjiang to implement the new policy of the Yongzheng Dynasty, of course, it was good to be an official, but what More Li Wei was doing was to repay the favor and repay the kindness of the fourth prince for his knowledge. It was with such a grateful attitude that Li Wei truly regarded himself as the family of the Four Princes to protect the Four Princes. His wife Xiaocui was pregnant and also wrote to the Fourth Master to report that there was a puppy, and gave birth to a doll named Li Zhongsiye; when he arrived at the Fourth Grandfather's Mansion, he did not walk into the alley of the Fourth Master's Mansion in a palanquin to show his respect; when Yongzheng visited the Fourth Master in his later years, he cried when he saw that Yongzheng only ate a little bit of true feelings.
After years of getting along, Yongzheng truly regarded Li Wei as his confidant and capable general. Basically, there is nothing to talk about, and what a trust it is to promote Li Wei, who was born from Hanako, step by step to the governor of Liangjiang. Moreover, when they are alone, they do not call Li Wei's little dog with the courtesy of the monarch. It is precisely because of this layer that Yongzheng urgently needs someone to give him advice, and Li Wei is a suitable candidate. Although Li Wei could not directly answer: any slave can do anything but this matter cannot be said, but still gave a cryptic answer
"It's not that the slaves dare to say that the ancestors are not, the first emperor is good or too tolerant." Knowing that the Eighth Master had a wrong heart, he also sealed Prince Belle one by one to leave these problems to the master..."
Second, Zhang Tingyu was a foreign minister. In the Yongzheng period, although Yongzheng also trusted him, he could not compare with the Kangxi period in terms of the family affairs of the heirs and the emperor. Kangxi could give Zhang Tingyu the edict of succession and then join forces with Long Keduo to handle it. But Zhang Tingyu was a foreign minister, and Yongzheng did not want to be ugly and foreign, so from this point of view, he did not ask Zhang Tingyu.
Secondly, because he asked Li Weiqian Yongzheng had not yet determined how to deal with Hongshi, Hongshi was beheaded because of the scientific expedition fraud case that Zhang Tingyu's younger brother Zhang Tinglu was scapegoated. Therefore, Yongzheng was worried that Zhang Tingyu could not provide advice impartially, so as to make it difficult for him to ride the tiger. Should Zhang Tingyu say that the ministers can all break the law and behead your son?
Because once Zhang Tingyu was asked to put forward the result of the treatment if it was not handled in accordance with Zhang Tingyu's way and could not say the reason, it would make the minister deviate from morality. Even if zhang Tinglu was killed in the scientific expedition, the people risked being killed at the moment of the Eight Kings' deliberations, and they rebuked the four banner lords and the Eight Ye Party, and indeed they were very loyal to Yongzheng. If at this time you let people give advice and then don't adopt it, it is too much to say.
brief summary:
In summary, according to Yongzheng's idea, it is more reasonable to consult with his own person Li Wei. Of course, in the end, it cleared the way for Hongli or when he killed Hiroshi.
I am the emperor of history, welcome your attention; if there is a flaw, the axe is right.
