The Qing Dynasty was the last dynasty in history. This dynasty has experienced a lot from prosperity to the final demise, and the emperors and princes who appeared in this period are also countless, and this dynasty is also a dynasty established by ethnic minorities, which is also a very great feat. The Qing Dynasty was the most prominent in the three generations of Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong, and the Qing Dynasty at this time was the most prosperous, the whole country was peaceful and the people were safe, and the people's happy life could also be said to be the happiest dynasty in the development of the Qing Dynasty.
Under the many heirs of many emperors, the most famous is the famous Yongqi, which appears frequently in many tv dramas now, which shows how important his position in history is. If Yongqi had not died prematurely because of his physical condition, then the throne of the Qing Dynasty would have belonged to him, and he would have become the best emperor, then the later period of the Qing Dynasty would not have become so decayed. Everything is imaginary beauty, in fact, Miyazaki died early, which is also the regret of many historians.
The sorrow of Yongqi's birth mother
Speaking of Yongqi's birth mother, this is a great but pitiful figure, she is a handmaiden whom Qianlong met during a private visit when he was a prince, she is from Mongolia, which was the most wanted to recover the lost land of the Qing Dynasty at that time, so Qianlong wanted to contact her in exchange for information. But this was only one reason, and another was because of the beautiful appearance and generous manners of this Mongolian handmaiden, so this made the Qianlong Emperor deeply in love with her, and Qianlong was unable to extricate himself and married her back home as a concubine. However, because of his poor origins, this led to a low status in the entire royal palace.
With the passage of time, Qianlong's feelings for this handmaiden gradually dimmed, so after Yongzheng's death, after Qianlong succeeded to the throne, he gave all the women who accompanied him to grow up with a very high name, only this handmaiden, because of her bad birth, low status, and unfavored, only got a position of Hai Changzai, which was unfair to her, but she had no choice.
A little time passed, Qianlong remembered the woman he loved most at that time, so he went to spoil her again, and after this time, this Hai Changzai became pregnant, and this heir was Yongqi. After decades of pregnancy, she gave birth to a prince named Yongqi, who was only 28 years old. The emperor was very pleased, so he gave her the title of Concubine of Pleasure and then succeeded in obtaining the title of Concubine of Pleasure.
But tragically, Princess Yue was the highest concubine in her life, and after that, the emperor never spoiled her again, and Princess Yue died alone.
The Emperor's favorite son died suddenly and his birth mother did not receive Peace
In ancient times, most women from humble origins relied on their sons to improve their status after they developed, which is the so-called "mother depends on the child". It is reasonable to say that Yongqi is the most favored prince of the emperor, but why is her birth mother, Princess Yue, still in a low status? This is a very strange question.
Later historians have found that although Yongqi was not Qianlong's eldest son, he was Qianlong's favorite son, because he was talented from an early age, quick to learn things, and proficient in everything, so the Qianlong Emperor praised this son, although Yongqi only lived to the age of thirty-one and died early, but his position in the emperor's heart can be described as very important.
In the final analysis, after Yongqi's death, the emperor had to give his birth mother, Princess Yue, a promotion or some appeasement, but ignore Princess Yue, until Princess Yue herself was depressed, and the Emperor realized how sorry he was for Princess Yue, but it was too late.
What was the reason why the Qianlong Emperor was cold to Concubine Yu?
It turned out that Yongqi was talented from an early age, proficient in archery and horseback riding, fast in learning things, and also well-behaved and sensible, so the emperor regarded Yongqi as the prince in his heart, and wanted him to inherit the throne to protect his Qing Dynasty, and among the entire candidates for prince, he also trusted Yongqi the most. However, what is not controversial is that Yongqi is not so attached to the throne, and does not want to inherit the throne, which in the eyes of the Qianlong Emperor, he is very cold, and his favorite son does not value his throne, which is a major blow to the emperor.
And Yongqi's idea is instilled by her birth mother, Princess Yue, because Yongqi's birth mother married the royal family at a young age, so she understands the stakes of becoming an emperor, and she does not want her son to get involved in the deep life, so from an early age, Yongqi was instilled in the idea of not valuing rights, which led to the result that Yongqi did not attach importance to the throne in the later period.
The emperor knew that this reason was very cold, all his efforts were in vain, and Princess Yue did not care about everyone at all, only about herself and her son Yongqi, And Yufei only for their own life to be able to be rich forever without having to struggle in the depths of life. Therefore, the emperor never spoiled her again, allowing Yufei to be depressed and finally end up alone, until after Yufei's death, the emperor really understood the purpose of Yufei, but the time was late, and the emperor could not make up for it, and could only regret it alone.
