Introduction: Although the old fourteenth and the old fourth Yinchen do not belong to the same faction, after all, they are a mother and brother, but they can still walk around each other to maintain a superficially decent relationship. The two brothers can also visit each other's doors or something, as for the old fourteen from the great general Wang and Yongzheng to die, that is after Yongzheng succeeded to the throne. Obviously, the reason for the death lies in the supreme chair. When The Fourth Elder learned that the Fourth Brother intended to support himself as the Great General King, the four elders, the fourth brothers and the fourth elder reached an alliance between the Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu and his own Great General King. As a result, the old fourteenth party also won the dual support of the Eighth Master Party and the Fourth Master Party and successfully became the general Wang Pingding in the northwest. Perhaps in the eyes of the naïve Old Fourteenth, this great general king has been equated with the heir to the throne. However, before the war was over, he waited for the new emperor's fourth brother's holy will to let him surrender his military power and return to Beijing for mourning. In the case of strong expectations falling short, Old Fourteen began a dead end with Yongzheng Fourth Brother. Because in his opinion, no matter how he was a brother, Yongzheng would not kill him.
Historical background
The old fourteenth Yinyu was the youngest and most naïve of the princes who participated in the conquest in the last years of the Kangxi Dynasty. After the crown prince was deposed twice, in fact, everyone understood that the new emperor must come from the two major conquest groups, the Eight Masters Party and the Four Masters Party. However, when the counterinsurgency army of The Northwest Chuan Erdan was completely destroyed, and the emperor planned to send a prince to be the great general king, the old fourteenth heart began to move. Because only in military affairs did he have this opportunity to covet the position of heir to the throne through the great general Wang Ligong.
Old Fourteen was in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and although he swore an oath at the meeting of the Eight Masters Party, this throne was also too tempting. Therefore, the old fourteen took advantage of the birthday of the imperial concubine Wu Yashi to go to the fourth brother's mansion to explore the wind, hoping that the fourth brother could not push himself. Perhaps the impression of the old fourth Yin Chan with people is that things are not right, so Kangxi will value him. Therefore, from the perspective of the old fourteenth, if the fourth brother pushed himself to become the great general king or even ascended the throne as emperor, he would definitely repay the fourth brother well.
The fourth elder had cooled down from the hot head at this time. Through Mr. Wu's analysis, he knew that at this time, he must push Old Fourteen to become the Great General King, and then control Old Fourteen through Nian Qianyao as the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu. As a result, the old fourteen fell into the well, and with great interest, he and the fourth brother reached a temporary alliance with the mutual support of the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu and the general Wang. Old Fourteen also successfully passed kangxi's approval to become a general wang to lead troops in the northwest to quell the rebellion.
The dream of the Crown Prince of the Fourteenth was shattered
Old Fourteen happily set off with Emperor Amma's Heavenly Son Sword and soldiers. In his relatively simple mind, he was the ironclad crown prince. After a smooth battle and returning to inherit the throne, treat the fourth brother and the starling brother well. Old Fourteen's little cleverness is still there, and through fake letters, he has rebelled against the monitors sent by Old Eight.
But after all, the old fourteen was thousands of miles away, so the duel between the fourth brother and the starling brother on the night of Kangxi's death was unknown. Therefore, when Tu Lichen arrived with the holy will of the fourth brother, the Yongzheng Emperor, asking him to surrender his military power and return to Beijing, he was suddenly confused. He really couldn't understand why the fourth brother had become the emperor? Didn't Emperor Amma mean to make me a prince? What are they doing in the capital?
Not only that, but in addition to tu lichen's dozens of great internal guards escorting him, Nian Qianyao also sent three thousand green battalion soldiers to follow him. Before that, the food supply of the Northwest Army was changed to one supply a day, so there were a few words to question Tu Lichen when the temple was resting. Of course, there is no useful information in the mouth of the slippery head of Turrichen.
There are two reasons why Old Fourteen is so angry that he wants to die with the fourth brother
First, he felt betrayed by his fourth brother.
In his simple way of thinking, since the fourth brother elected him to be the Great General King, it was to approve him as the future crown prince. But how could Emperor Amma appoint the fourth brother as the new emperor? Therefore, when the fourth brother became the new emperor, it was a betrayal of himself, and the fourth brother was not righteous. This is obviously a child's play?
Second, the Great General King, who he had won by all means, was one step away from the throne and could not give up easily
In his opinion, this great general king was personally sealed by the emperor, and he gave himself the Tianzi Sword. Obviously, he was the future emperor, so it was easy to get to this point, even if Yongzheng had already succeeded to the throne, he was not convinced and would make a fuss. Are you losing this throne that is about to arrive without understanding it? So he touched his head in front of kangxi's coffin, and he just couldn't believe this fact.
Step by step
The first time: The Great Haunting
Therefore, he rushed back from the northwest holding his breath, and on the way, he picked up Qiao Yindi, who was dependent on him. When ma Qi came across Ma Qi at a post station outside the city and asked him to rest for a day and return to Beijing the next day, the fire of the fourteenth elder could not be suppressed and asked directly:
Emperor, that emperor?
Although he received the Holy Will, Old Fourteen did not care about those who immediately went to Beijing to go to kangxi's spiritual hall to make a big fuss. Old Eight and Old Nine Old Ten and others poured fuel into the fire and cried loudly, because they also did not obey Yongzheng's plan to shoot Old Fourteen.
Even when his mother Wu Yashi persuaded Old Fourteen not to make trouble, he was pushed down by old Fourteen, who was full of imperial power. There are still words in the mouth:
"You are wearing the clothes of an imperial concubine, you are not the empress, you are not the empress." The state has a system, you can't control the great general king."
The implication is that you are not the empress, then the throne of the fourth brother does not count; I, the great general king, am the emperor Ama personally. Old Fourteen was going to fish in muddy waters, holding on to the last glimmer of hope and planning to turn the tables on the succession to the throne. In the end, Yongzheng was forced to make Wu Yashi the empress dowager, and Zhang Tingyu presided over the worship. At this time, the old fourteenth was forced to pay homage to the empress, and he also recognized the imperial power of the fourth brother Yongzheng in disguise.
The second step is to use his influence to write letters to the old ministry after Nian Qianyao became the general of the Northwest Fuyuan General
Although Old Fourteen had acknowledged the throne of the four Yongzhengs, he still couldn't swallow this breath in his heart. Usually, he and Qiao Yindi were at ease in the palace, and later after the provocation of Lao Ba, Xian and Lao Jiu LaoShi and others went to The Burren Building to drink and listen to music in order to satirize and misinterpret Yongzheng's excuse for Liu Molin. After being stopped by the old eight, he fell out with the old eight.
Therefore, the old fourteen who had long been worried about the great general Wang Geng wrote to the northwest general Funing An and other eight banner old troops, disregarding the national interests to provoke manchu and Han contradictions to undermine the unity of the northwest army. Almost causing a fire within the Northwest Army, Nian Qianyao decisively executed Funing An to complete the unification of military power.
The third step, when Old Thirteen persuaded Old Fourteen to serve Yongzheng, Old Fourteen was still full of righteous indignation and categorically refused Old Thirteen's request.
After Nian Qianyao was killed, the northwest was unstable. The seriously ill old thirteen could no longer go to the northwest to lead the troops, so the old thirteen advised the fourth brother to use the old fourteen. When Old Thirteen came to Jingling to persuade Old Fourteen, Old Fourteen had already received a letter from Old Nine, so he had already made preparations. When Old Thirteen advised Old Fourteen to serve the country with his experience of being imprisoned, Old Fourteen once again said what he was saying:
"You answered me from emperor Ama's mausoleum, who did emperor Ama pass the throne to in the first place?" "Since Emperor Ama passed on the throne to him in a justifiable way, why did you go to the Fengtai camp to seize the military power; why did Yongzheng hurriedly deploy Nian Tangyao to cut off my grain and grass and seize my military power" "I can afford to lose when I win, but I can't accept such a way of losing until I die?"
The implication is that he does not accept or reconcile, and he does not go back to Yongzheng to sell his life. As a result, Yongzheng was furious, and originally Yongzheng was mean and widowed, so he directly brought the eunuch slaves who served the fourteenth old man, including Qiao Yindi, back to Beijing. Old Fourteen saw that Yongzheng even took away Qiao Yindi, who was close to him, and scolded Yongzheng even more, but it didn't help.
brief summary:
In fact, old fourteen was indeed unqualified as a participant in the conquest, and his naïve and natural personality was doomed to defeat in the struggle of the sword and light sword shadow. If he can recognize the reality, he should be able to get a good treatment in the new dynasty by exerting his military talents as a compatriot of him and Yongzheng Yimu. It's a pity that Old Fourteen is too drilled into the horn tip.
I am the emperor of history, welcome your attention; if there is a flaw, the axe is right.
