Introduction: Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty is the closest dynasty in history to the present, the Qing palace drama involving the evocative court secrets or the emperors and generals is extremely hot, even if most of them have fatal historical errors. Among the monarchs of the Qing Dynasty, perhaps the most eye-catching is the grandsons of Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong. Under the rule of this ancestor, the Chinese Empire stepped into the prosperous era of Kang Yongqian, with no external invincibles and no civil unrest inside. However, even if it is as noble as the royal family, even if it is the Kangxi who opened up the prosperous world, he is still caught off guard in the face of the succession of the throne and the selection of the crown prince, and finally even causes the Xiao Wall, causing the historical tragedy of the so-called "nine sons and nine sons and concubines". But what few people know is that among the ambitious princes of Kangxi, one of them held a heavy army but remained safe, and finally became the longest-lived Kangxi heir.
01
Although the prosperity of Kangqian has been hyped up in later history books, it is not unreasonable that the Qing Dynasty has always been known as the last days of the feudal dynasty. Whether it is the backward imperial rule or the closed and self-preserving social tradition, the old empire has gradually fallen to the bottom. Of course, freezing three feet is not a cold day, from the end of the Kangxi Dynasty, the maladministration of the imperial court has been increasingly exposed, and the fratricidal within the imperial family has destroyed the foundation of the empire. According to anecdotal legends and even historical records, the imperial education of the Qing Dynasty can be regarded as the highest quality in the dynasties, whether it is Wenneng poetry books or Martial Arts, the Qing Emperor can easily grasp it. But as long as you are born in the royal family, fratricide is bound to be inevitable.

The throne was the most seductive symbol of power in the imperial era: not only could it have inexhaustible wealth, but it could also have supreme authority. Therefore, from the beginning of the Qin and Han Dynasties, royal farces such as Hu Hai's edict, the usurpation of the throne by the Sui Dynasty Emperor, and the change of Xuanwu Gate occurred one after another, no matter how the history of zhengshi was disguised, or how the history of the wild was exaggerated, the seemingly noble and exclusive royal family had long been recognized by the people of the world. The Qing Dynasty was naturally no exception, at the beginning of the founding of the country, there were dolgun and emperor Taiji's discord, and by the time of the Kangxi Dynasty, because of Kangxi's high lifespan, he reigned for as long as sixty years, so there were many adult princes and grandchildren under his knees, plus the crown prince was weak and incompetent, so the competition between the princes was more intense.

Among the nine sons, the fiercest struggle between the open and the dark is the fourth son of the emperor, the eighth son of the emperor and the fourteenth son of the emperor. Among them, because the fourteenth and eighth masters were ambitious and had strong political skills, they were quite favored and favored by Kangxi, who was already in his twilight years. But even so, the strategizing fourth master, with his own city government and ambitions, eventually won the favor of his father: Kangxi made a testament on the occasion of his death, which allowed the Yongzheng era to officially begin. Soon after the gloomy and resolute Yongzheng ascended the throne, he threatened his former brothers and sisters, and even added to prison. Among them, The twelfth son of the Kangxi Emperor, Yin Qi, was able to get away with it, not only was he not hated by his fourth brother, but on the contrary, he actually held the power of the Qing Dynasty, and was also appointed by his nephew Qianlong after Yongzheng's death. So, how did this Runaway Prince "lie flat"?
04
The reason for this must be very related to Yin's indifferent personality. Although yin qi's mother was not high in status, she had a very high emotional intelligence, and as early as the place where she gave birth to the crown prince, she expressed her intention of unintentionally taking the throne, so that she avoided making enemies everywhere. In addition, Lama Su Ma, the most legendary harem chief of the Kangxi Dynasty, took care of Yin Qi since childhood, not only had a lot of teachings, but also loved him very much, and when he grew up, he taught him many important ways of dealing with people. It was under the influence of these that Yin Qi was very pleasing to his father' favor.
Conclusion: But Yin Qi is still careful everywhere, and he is respectful to all the ambitious imperial brothers, especially taking the initiative to stay away from the situation and indulge in the flower viewing and the moon, which makes Yongzheng trust this younger brother very much. Later, the elderly Yin Qi even tried his best to ensure that his little nephew Qianlong ascended the throne, which made Hongli extremely grateful to his twelve uncles. Therefore, if you want to protect yourself in the whirlpool of imperial power, Yin Qi's ethereal appearance and indifferent fame and fortune are definitely worth leaving a mark in history.
