The "Kangqian Prosperous Era" of China's Qing Dynasty was the peak period in the entire development history of the Qing Dynasty, and there are still court dramas about Kangxi and Qianlong in the folk. Among them, when the Qianlong Emperor was in power, there appeared a great traitorous minister, and this great traitorous minister said that everyone was familiar with it, and he was the notorious Hezhen. Almost in the entire play of the Qianlong Emperor, there is the shadow of Hezhen, as the saying goes: good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil. Such a traitor did not end up with a good death.
After Qianlong's son Jiaqing ascended the throne, He yan was eventually investigated and punished for corruption, and finally hanged himself. And the property he embezzled during his lifetime was also confiscated by the imperial court, so history also had such an evaluation: "He Yan fell, Jiaqing was fed." However, when such a traitor was in prison, he secretly arranged his own posthumous affairs, and it is said that before his death, he instructed the prisoner next door: "If you can go out in the future, help me do a big thing."
What could make Washu still so worried before he died? Who is the prisoner next door? Does he have that much power? To understand these problems, we have to start with when Hezhen was found in prison. In the Qianlong era, his notoriety in the government and the public was almost universally known, but would Qianlong not know about such a traitor? Of course I know! But why didn't the Qianlong Emperor investigate and punish Hezhen? Because Wakan "suits his taste".
As we all know, the Qianlong Emperor in history made several visits to Jiangnan, but in fact it was not a "tour", but a place to eat, drink and have fun. But you have to play with silver! Qianlong is the Son of Heaven, and he can't go to the people to collect silver himself! Therefore, He Yan acted as the most suitable candidate in Qianlong's mind. And with a "small treasury" like Hezhen, Qianlong can do whatever he wants and swim the world freely.
However, such profligacy will eventually make the people poor and empty, which may also be the main reason why the "Kangqian prosperous world" is weakening! Therefore, after Jiaqing ascended the throne, he immediately had to investigate and punish Hezhen, but at that time, Heqing had a deep foundation in the government and the opposition, and even Jiaqing wanted to move him! Later, Jiaqing's joint ministers Zhu Jue and Wang Jiecai overthrew He yan and conducted a thorough investigation of him, which was unbelievable! There were many people involved, and one of the most important people was Fu Chang'an, the military minister at that time.
Don't underestimate him! His official position is not much, the key is that he is an authentic "relative of the emperor and the state". His father was Qianlong's most trusted general and uncle Fu Heng at that time, his aunt was Empress Fucha, and his brother was Fu Kang'an, who had a heavy army! This background also allowed Fu Chang'an to be "reused" by Hezhen, and he became the "number two person" under Hezhen, and privately, he had a good relationship with him.
Therefore, when Jiaqing learned of Fu Chang'an's corruption, he was very angry and ordered that He yan and Fu Chang'an be sent to prison together. But coincidentally, the two brothers were locked up in two adjacent cells, and now everyone understands! Before he died, why would he entrust his posthumous affairs to the prisoner next door, because Hezhen knew that Fu Chang'an would not die! There is a saying in our countryside called "breaking bones and connecting tendons" .
Just by virtue of Fu Chang'an's background, Jiaqing will definitely not execute Fu Chang'an! Otherwise, I can't stand him too much. Therefore, He yan dared to place great trust in him. However, what big thing does Hesheng want Fu Chang'an to help him do? Here, don't think about it. Definitely not for money and property, because he and Yan Chu, he is going to die, money is already "something outside the body", he is thinking of a person, this person is not his son, but his nephew Feng Shengyimian.
Here, some people may ask: How can his own son still worry about his nephew? There is a reason here, and He Yan knows that his own son Fengshen Yinde will not die, because Fengshen Yinde is also a "relative of the imperial family", and his wife is married to the Tenth Princess, no matter what, Jiaqing will not kill Fengsheng Yinde. Feng Shen Yinian, on the other hand, lost his father early and was raised by Hezhen at a very young age.
Moreover, FengShenyin was too honest and loyal, and timid and afraid of things, but Hezhen was very fond of this nephew. Therefore, even before he died, he was still worried about him, afraid that he would be killed by Jiaqing because of his own involvement. Therefore, before he died, he told TOEFL Chang'an that after going out in the future, he must help him take good care of his nephew Fengshen Yimian. From this point of view, He Yan is also a person who cherishes love and righteousness! Fu Chang'an finally agreed to the gentleman.
Later, after He yan hanged himself, Fu Chang'an was also released as He Yan expected. His nephew was eventually spared the death penalty because of Fu Chang'an's "dotting". Only jiaqing was stripped of his knighthood and changed to a third-class light car lieutenant, but later, the third-class light car lieutenant was also deposed, and Feng Shen Yimian became a fortune teller on the street. But no matter what, Fu Chang'an still kept his original promise to Hezhen and saved the life of FengShen Yinian! After all, in that situation at that time, living was the king! Do you say yes?
