"The details are everything." Since ancient times, there have always been many people in history who are very good at looking at people, and if you want to see people accurately, you mainly have to start from the details. And often the details also bear witness to a lot of problems.
Therefore, many times to examine a person, in fact, to examine some details. Kangxi believed that everyone was no stranger. And when he first saw his grandson, the famous Qianlong, he was shocked to put down the wine glass in his hand. What exactly did he find?
Why would a person like Kangxi, who had seen a lot of the world, be shocked by his grandson? What was it about Qianlong that shocked him? What the hell is going on? And as the saying goes, knowing people and discussing the world. Therefore, if you want to know all this, you still have to talk in detail from the historical background at that time and the relationship between Qianlong and Kangxi.
Garden experience
If you want to understand this incident, you still have to start with a garden visit during the reign of Kangxi. At that time, this garden tour was planned by Kangxi's son Yin Chan. He knew that his father Kangxi liked the peony garden, and invited his father to go just when the peonies were in full bloom. In fact, this invitation is not a simple flower viewing, Yin Chan also has ulterior motives.
After Kangxi came to the peony garden, he was attracted by the beautiful scenery and was very happy.
In this way, because Kangxi was not young, after enjoying the flowers for a while, due to lack of physical strength, Yin Chan took his father to the pavilion to rest. Moreover, the careful Yin Chan has also helped his father prepare his favorite snacks and drinks for his father to taste.
Up to this point, Kangxi was very happy and felt that his son was very filial.
However, while tasting food and resting, something happened that shocked Kangxi, allowing Kangxi to directly identify the candidate for the next emperor.
Kangxi first saw Qianlong
It was while Kangxi was resting in the gazebo, this time, when he first met his grandson.
So what was the situation at that time?
It is said that Kangxi was drinking and tasting food at that time, and at this time, a small child of about eight or nine years old was led over. This was the later Qianlong, the grandson of Kangxi. When Kangxi saw this child, he was even more shocked, and even put down the wine glass in his hand.
So why was Kangxi so shocked? That's why he found the child's face very unusual. According to the records, at that time, Qianlong's face was like a crown jade, his teeth were wearing hair, and he also had a pointed nose, a pair of sword eyebrows and very godly eyes, it can be said that Qianlong's appearance was very handsome, and at the same time he was somewhat gentle and elegant. At that time, it seemed to have the face of an emperor.
Moreover, in the conversation with Kangxi, this child also revealed extraordinary qualifications, which showed that he was a very talented person and had his own ideas, which was different from children of the same age.
Although Kangxi had a wealth of experience in his life and read countless people, he lost his voice for a while when he saw a child with such a positive face. It was at this time that Yin Chan began to introduce the children, so that Kangxi could return to His senses. It turned out that this little child was his grandson Hongli.
Although Hongli was Kangxi's grandson, he did not see his grandfather for the first time until he was eight or nine years old. This is because Kangxi had many children in his lifetime, so naturally there were many grandchildren, so there were many Kangxi who had never seen him. Therefore, being able to see his grandson Hongli is actually the ulterior motive of his own son Yin Chan.
Yin Chan's painstaking heart
As mentioned above, because many of Kangxi's grandchildren did not have the opportunity to meet their grandfathers, Yin Chan also used up his painstaking efforts to let his son Hongli meet Kangxi.
In fact, Yin Chan also has many sons, and among all the children, his own hong calendar is what he thinks is the best. Hongli was not only proficient in poetry, but also knowledgeable and talented in politics. Yin Chan's superiority in the history is naturally in his eyes and in his heart. At the same time, Hongli is also very hardworking, and strives for excellence in work, pursuing perfection and being meticulous. Yin Chan knew that Hongli could accomplish something great.
However, Yin Chan knows that people's success requires opportunities. I need it, and I need it myself. Therefore, he deliberately arranged for his Hongli to meet with Kangxi. He knew that Kangxi was very good at reading people, and naturally knew that hongli were not ordinary.
Therefore, in the pavilion, Hongli came to meet Kangxi according to the plan. Sure enough, Kangxi immediately fell in love with his grandson, whom he had never met.
In fact, Kangxi likes to promote the calendar, and is optimistic about the calendar, which is also of great benefit to Yin Chan. Because, once Kangxi decided that Hongli could make a difference in the future, he would deliberately pass the throne to Hongli's father, that is, Yin Chan. Because, in the environment at that time, if Yin Chan did not become the next emperor, the end would be very tragic, and Hongli would also be buried.
So, as expected, for long-term reasons. Later, Yin Chan did succeed to the throne and became the next emperor. Although there were various rumors later, it was believed that Yin Chan was usurping the throne and even murdered his brother. However, in fact, every time a new emperor comes to power, there will be a lot of criticism, but history cannot be restored 100%, so no one knows the truth about how Yin Chan succeeds to the throne.
However, what is certain is that whether it is Yin Chan or the later Hongli, it is indeed a very good emperor, it can be said that Kangxi's decision was correct, and Yin Chan's painstaking efforts were not in vain.
epilogue
As the saying goes, "Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared." Indeed, this has been the case since ancient times, and it was precisely because of Yin Chan's good intentions that the talented Hongli had the opportunity to be seen by the emperor at that time, Kangxi. If he hadn't arranged a visit to the garden, perhaps the Hongli calendar might have been buried.
In this way, Yin Chan's good intentions not only achieved himself, but also achieved his son. In fact, it is a lot of gains, because according to history, the later Hongli calendar is indeed a very good emperor, who has made a lot of contributions and great achievements. But at the same time, in fact, this is also a kind of risk, because if Kangxi does not recognize the Hongli calendar, it will also let the Hongli be buried, and it will cause a catastrophe and lose the opportunity.
As the saying goes, take history as a mirror. The history of the past always has to teach us some lessons. At the same time, we must also learn to seize opportunities, and when there is no opportunity, we also need to create conditions and create opportunities.
