Introduction: In ancient Chinese history, power struggles run through all the dynasties in Chinese history, and if you want to get involved in power, in addition to relying on good reincarnation technology and being born into the royal family, you either rely on beauty to run the harem, or rely on knowledge to become an official through the imperial examination, or be brave and brave, from the army to the army, the last is to rely on the identity of foreign relatives, turn over the twenty-four histories, foreign relatives interfere in politics or seize power abound, such as the popular Empress Xuan in the Great Qin Empire some time ago, Wu Zetian in the Tang Dynasty, Wang Mang in the Han Dynasty, and Empress Dowager Cixi who is closest to us. So in view of such hidden dangers, in this issue, we will take stock of how the emperor in history prevented foreign relatives from seizing power.
Qin Shi Huang
First, Qin Shi Huang did not stand
After the Shi Huang swept the six hex to unify the world, so far we have not found any historical records about his harem history, even his empress is not known, although Qin Shi Huang had more than 20 children, of which we are most familiar with gongzi Fu Su and er Hu Hai, Shi Huang in order to avoid the tragedy of foreign relatives interfering in politics, he fundamentally put an end to this problem, there are no foreign relatives in the DPRK. This is the most absolute, and it is rare in history after the king of a country is not established.
Emperor
2. Emperor Wu of Han gave death to Lady Hook Yi
Emperor Wudi of Han was one of the great emperors in Chinese history, and this emperor was dimwitted in his later years, which led to his prince being wrongfully committed suicide, which is the famous "scourge of witchcraft" in history, which led to Emperor Wudi of Han having no time to cultivate a qualified successor, after much consideration, he had to choose the youngest son Liu Fuling as emperor, in order to prevent his mother from relying on his son and his foreign relatives from interfering in politics, he directly issued an edict to kill his mother Lady Hook Yi and completely relieve the trouble.
Zhu Yuanzhang
Third, the Ming Dynasty draft system
After the Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang seized the world, in order to prevent various forces from encroaching on the imperial power, he thought of many ways, in the aspect of foreign relatives, stipulating that all empresses and princesses could only choose from the people and could not marry with the ministers of culture and military affairs, and the social status of foreign relatives was low, and it was difficult to form a political group. It is precisely because the concubines are all folk women, most of them are carpenters, merchant women, not scholars. And the princes and the mothers stayed much longer than the fathers and emperors. Hearing about it, it is natural to yearn for the folk life that the mother concubine once had. Therefore, most of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty had a lot of fun, and liked to be a carpenter as a merchant as a general, but they did not like to be an emperor.
The Kangxi Emperor
Fourth, the Qing Dynasty nursing mother adoption system
Remember the Four Brothers in the Yongzheng Dynasty? Why does Roncodo support the Four Brothers? In fact, this is the system of the Qing Dynasty, Yongzheng's birth mother is Wu Yashi, and the fourteenth brother is a brother, but the adoptive mother is Empress Xiaoyiren Tong Jiashi, that is, Longkeduo's sister, so Yongzheng called Longkeduo as an uncle, the emperor is not raised by himself, he is not close, it is difficult for foreign relatives to interfere in politics, in addition to the nursing mother system, the Qing Dynasty stipulates that after the concubine gives birth to her first son, she cannot be raised by herself, and can only be raised by her grandmother or nursing mother in the palace. It further dilutes the influence of the mother's family on the young emperor, and the influence of the family on the young emperor,
