In his later years, the Kangxi Emperor had a political trend with great influence, that is, the nine sons seized the concubine, which nine, the eldest brother Yinzhen, the old second Yinzhen, the old third Yinzhen, the old fourth Yinzhen, the old eighth Yinzhen, the old nine Yinyu, the teacher Yin? , old thirteen Yin Xiang, old fourteen Yin Yu, so when the author watched some film and television works a few years ago, he would ask how many brothers in the middle? At that time, some people did not seek much understanding, and it took the past two years to clarify the relationship between them.
Yin Qi in "The Biography of Zhen Huan"
Among them, the six brothers and the eleventh brothers are because of their early deaths, and the three old five, the seventh, and the twelfth are indeed not involved in this huge political trend, through the review of these three historical records, the author found that these three people are really one smarter than one, one is more moist than the other, the most prominent of which is the protagonist of today's article, the old five Yinqi.
The son of the pet concubine was raised by the empress
The Kangxi Emperor had many concubines in his lifetime, of which there were more than sixty famous concubines, among whom there was a concubine of a mediocre but deeply favored and well-known concubine, she was Concubine Yi. Yin Qi was the first son of Concubine Yi, the second son of the old Jiu Yin Yu, and the third son of the old eleven.
Actor Deng Jie played the Yifei Guo Luo Luoshi
Yin Qi was born in December of the eighteenth year of Kangxi, his mother Guo Luo Luoshi was not a concubine at that time, just a concubine, but also a relatively low ranking concubine, only two years later, the Kangxi Emperor sealed the six palaces, Yi Concubine ranked second among the four concubines, plus the imperial concubine Tong Shi and the noble concubine Niu Hulu clan, Guo Luo Luoshi was the fourth person in the harem, Yi Concubine was favored by the Kangxi Emperor for decades, the Yikun Palace where she lived in the Ming Dynasty was originally the residence of the favored concubine, and from the later Yongzheng Emperor to the throne, let the most favored concubine live in the Yikun Palace speculated, The luxury of Yikun Palace is definitely better than that of other palaces.
As the eldest son of Concubine Yi, Yin Qi naturally received special attention from his parents, Yin Qi, together with his elder brother Yin Chan and younger brother Yin Yu, had been raised by the imperial concubine Tong Shi (Empress Xiaoyi) when he was a child, and more specially, Yin Qi had also been raised under the knees of his grandmother Empress Renxian.

Portrait of Empress Xiaohuizhang (Empress Dowager Inxian).
Empress Renxian Washin Emperor Borjigit was the successor of the Shunzhi Emperor and the concubine of the Kangxi Emperor, because the Kangxi Emperor's birth mother Empress Cihe died in the second year of his ascension to the throne, but he was only 24 years old, so the Kangxi Emperor was very close to this concubine, and at the ceremony of the death of Empress Renxian, the Kangxi Emperor was over sixty years old, sick and his feet were puffy, and he still insisted on keeping the spirit, and the fifth elder mentioned that he had been raised by his grandmother and asked the surrogate father to guard the spirit and take care of affairs for the grandmother. The Kangxi Emperor had many heirs, but only Yin Qi proposed it, indicating that the fifth elder should have been raised by his grandmother for a long time, and other brothers may have been raised by his grandmother, but the fifth elder should be the one with whom he has the deepest feelings.
In the thirty-fifth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, he marched on Gardan and ordered Yunqi to lead the Yellow Banner camp. — Draft History of the Qing Dynasty? Biography of the Kings
Lao Wu had a unique advantage, his father also attached great importance to him, in the thirty-fifth year of Kangxi, the Kangxi Emperor's second conquest of Gardan, only 16-year-old Yin Qi led the Zhenghuangqi battalion to accompany the army, not long after leaving, his side Fujin Liu Jiashi gave birth to his eldest son Hongsheng. This war, coupled with the third conquest of Gardan the following year, completely eliminated Kaldan and returned Khalkha to the Qing Dynasty, and just when Kaldan was about to collapse, the Kangxi Emperor chose Concubine Fujin for the fifth elder, yes, Yin Qi was the first to marry the side Fujin, and then there was the Concubine Fujin.

The author speculates that the old Wuyin Qi has a very good heart and is a pure person, and the Kangxi Emperor and the Yongzheng Emperor have almost the same evaluation of him, so it can be seen that the Kangxi Emperor may not want him to marry a high-ranking daughter to win over whom and balance whom, but simply wants to choose a woman with good talent and moral character for his son to be his main room, and does not want this son to be too involved in the situation because of in-law relations, so he arranged it in this way. However, this is only a speculation of the author based on the history books, and everyone is welcome to discuss.
With such an advantage, why not compete for reserves?
As mentioned above, the advantages of this old fifth are considerable, the mother is a spoiled concubine, she was raised under the knee of her grandmother, she had the blessing of the empress dowager, she followed her father on the expedition at a young age, and his ranking was still very advanced, why didn't he participate in the battle for the reserve? This brings us to a well-known saying, that is, "character determines destiny", which may not apply to everyone, at least for Yin Qi.
In October of the 48th year, he was the Prince of Fengheng. — Draft History of the Qing Dynasty? Biography of the Kings
A year after Yin Qi married Concubine Fujin, he was given the title of Dorobelle with his fourth brother Yin Chen, seventh brother Yin You, and eighth brother Yin Yu, and his eldest brother and third brother were named The King of Zhi County and the King of Cheng County, which can be said to be the earliest batch of the kangxi Emperor's sons to have a knighthood, which of course also benefited from his ranking, and after eleven years, Yin Qi and the third brother and the fourth brother were simultaneously promoted to prince, and his title was "Heng".
Kangxi Emperor reading portrait
It is precisely because of this lenient personality that Lao Wu did not like or disdain to intervene in the party struggle, and the Kangxi Emperor seemed to understand his son's intentions, and after the Kangxi Fifty-Year Toheqi Incident, he almost only let Yin Qi participate in some ceremonial occasions, especially some of the sacrifices after the death of Empress Renxian, almost all of which had Yin Qi's participation, which was a kind of fulfillment of the Kangxi Emperor's filial piety to his son, and also a kind of protection for his son.
Before the Imperial Examination ascended to the Zi Palace, in a hurry, when Concubine Yi saw her, her temperament was similar to that of the Empress Dowager, and she was completely unaware of the national system. - Records of emperors of the Qing Dynasty
Lao Jiu Yinyu in the Yongzheng Dynasty
In fact, if you look at the personalities of Concubine Yi and Old Jiu Yinyu, you can find that the influence of the caregiver on the child is very deep. Even after the death of the Kangxi Emperor, she dared to openly stand in front of the Wuya clan (the Concubines of the Kangxi Dynasty were ranked after the Concubines of Yi), and saw that the Yongzheng Emperor actually posed as the empress dowager, and Yin Yu seemed to be influenced by his mother, which was also quite high-profile, which was completely different from the old Wu Yinqi, which showed that the old fifth was raised by his grandmother Empress Renxian and cultivated a peaceful atmosphere, which was also the fundamental reason why he and Lao Jiu were compatriots of the same mother, but their fate was completely different.
The degree of happiness is quite high, and this prince is really comfortable
After the Yongzheng Emperor ascended the throne, the good days of Yifei and Lao Jiu came to an end, and Yin Qi, as the eldest son of Yifei, was not disposed of by the Yongzheng Emperor, and the treatment was as old as before. The Yongzheng Emperor took special care of the fifth brother, and always ordered the fifth elder to go when he sacrificed the Xiaodong Tomb (the tomb of the Empress Dowager Renxian), which shows the depth of the relationship between the grandsons of the old fifth and the empress dowager, not only the Kangxi Emperor understands, but even the Yongzheng Emperor is also very recognized, perhaps the Yongzheng Emperor is also very grateful to the grandmother, because the huge contrast between the fifth and the ninth can obviously see how failed the cultivation of Concubine Yi (of course, this is the perspective of the Yongzheng Emperor).
Actor Tang Guoqiang plays the Yongzheng Emperor
This kind of care of the fifth brother by the Yongzheng Emperor was not only to show his magnanimity, he did not maliciously retaliate because he was the son of Concubine Yi and the brother of the ninth elder, he could clearly distinguish between right and wrong, and the old five good was the old five good, and would not change for other reasons. On the other hand, what should be seen is that the personality of Yun Qi (after the Yongzheng Emperor took the throne, the brothers changed their yin to Yun, and the old thirteen and eleven people were later restored) is well known among the brothers, he does not participate in the conquest, does not take sides, but only listens to his father's words, and then, naturally, also listens to the words of the new emperor, such a character who takes the throne will not be embarrassed for him.
Yunqi's old age is quite good, the status is respected, not to mention, but also enjoy the joy of heaven, children and daughters, and most of them did not let him white-haired people send black haired people, according to the Kangxi Emperor's will, there are concubines of the crown prince can go out of the palace to live, the Yongzheng Emperor also agreed to Concubine Yi to the Heng Prince's Palace to raise the heavenly year, so that the mother is often around, and there are children and grandchildren around the knees, Yunqi's little life is much better than many brothers, of course, the Yongzheng Emperor is still OK with most of the brothers, but there can be Yunqi like this, the mother is alive, there are many children and grandchildren, Status and respect and other happiness factors add up, that is not much.
Ten years leap may, Yun Qi Xue, yu Yu. Zi Hongxuan, attack. — Draft History of the Qing Dynasty? Biography of the Kings
Prince Heng and Fu Jin in the Biography of Zhen Huan
Yun Qi had seven sons, Consort Fujin, he did not have children, so at first it was the eldest son Hongsheng who served as the son of the world, but this child was not contentious, and was stripped of the title of Shizi, so when Yunqi died in the tenth year of Yongzheng, it was the title inherited by the second son Hongxu, who was born to the Guarjia clan of The Lateral Fujin, and the Yongzheng Emperor was very sorry for the death of the fifth brother, and did several acts of grace to the fifth brother.
First of all, of course, it is to give a nickname, this is the normal process, Yunqi's nickname is "Wen", in fact, there is no need to explain more, this word is the best annotation to Yunqi's life's personality and behavior;
Secondly, the Yongzheng Emperor erected a monument for the fifth brother, this grace is not something that everyone can enjoy, it can be seen that the Yongzheng Emperor is indeed quite recognized by this younger brother, and the inscription praises the fifth brother, mainly to praise the old fifth in his affairs and personality;
Actor Chen Jianbin plays the Yongzheng Emperor
Another thing is even more unusual, when the second son of the fifth elder, Hongxu, attacked the knight, he was not demoted. The Qing Dynasty stipulated that in addition to the specially sealed Iron Hat King, the other clan lords were to be demoted to one level, the first generation was the prince, the second generation was the county king, the third generation was Baylor, but Hongxu was still the princely title, until after his death, his son was demoted to the county king. Other clans also had descendants who were promoted back to their original titles after being demoted to knighthood, but it was an extraordinary grace to inherit without being demoted, which showed that the Yongzheng Emperor's grace for the fifth brother was quite grand.
Wei Luan said:
Old Wu Yunqi's life can be said to have been from birth to death to meet his title and title, Prince Constant Temperature, always gentle, long and slender, the aura on his body is layer by layer, but he can keep his heart, do not argue, get the favor of his father and brother two emperors, what is more rare is that it seems that the heavens are also particularly favored by him, his children are not like some of his nephews and nieces who walk in front of their parents, most of them can take the knees and let him enjoy the joy of the world, and his mother Concubine Yi has always accompanied him.
Perhaps the fifth elder will also regret that he will make his elderly mother sad, but his life is indeed very complete, the title given to him by his father, the title given to him by his brother, the two words of the two emperors are so refined and so precise, he himself lives thoroughly, and naturally he will receive exceptional happiness, which may be a coincidence of history, but I know that it is not the benefits that the fifth elder lives to understand?
