Historically, Hezhen was known for corrupt officials, and this "character" was highlighted in the Court Dramas of the Qing Dynasty, although it was only mixed with the "Dynasty" of Qianlong, but the merits could surpass those of the old ministers of the Three Dynasties. When he raided the house, the gold and silver jewelry in the family far exceeded everyone's cognition, and could almost fill the income of the national treasury for several years.
Before he died, he wrote a desperate poem, which included a sentence: A hundred years was originally a dream, and twenty years of wasted labor. It is a sigh to this life, leaving a few words to the prisoner next door before dying. If the man is not dead, please help with something. The content of the last words also surprised many people, helping to take care of one of his relatives, that is, his nephew, what did Hezhen think?
And Yan's desolate end
Chao Wei Tian Shelang, Twilight Heavenly Son Hall, this is to say, the law of official hard work. The promotion of officials is not yet, depending on the attitude of the Son of Heaven, this person may be very valued in the previous dynasty, but when it comes to the next dynasty, he will lose the trust of the next emperor. There are many such examples of history in the dynasty, and as a favorite of Qianlong, he lived a "bad" life in the generation of the next master, the Jiaqing Emperor.
This is also strange and ugly, smart a lifetime, confused for a while. Patronizing the Qianlong Emperor but ignoring Jiaqing, this successor prince will ascend to the throne sooner or later, and if he wants to continue to be favored, he needs to leave a back road for himself. It was that the relationship with Jiaqing was "better", but unfortunately he understood this too late and put all his thoughts on Qianlong.
In fact, the Jiaqing Emperor hated Hezhen to the bone, otherwise he would not have quickly "disposed of" Hezhen not long after his father's death. A series of actions that were really "ready to go", not only stripped him of all his official positions, but also brought about the result of a family raid. Struggling for most of his life, it is a night back to the pre-liberation period.
At that time, when Hezhen was in prison, he also had an accomplice by his side, and this person was Fu Chang'an. Later generations have heard of the famous Fukang'an, and they feel very strange to this person. These two men were brothers, and they were quite capable of themselves, and they were still quite valued during the Qianlong Dynasty. In Qianlong's later years, he "hooked up" with He yan, and when he was unlucky, he also followed the melon.
His whole life was used by Qianlong
As a dynasty, in fact, Hezhen is also a very intelligent person and is very clear about his situation. The Jiaqing Emperor did not like to be his own child at all, so he had already made arrangements for his son to marry a princess. As soon as Jiaqing moved here, he knew that he was doomed and accepted this fate calmly. Before his death, he entrusted Fu Chang'an to help him take good care of his nephew.
Although He yan is a big corrupt official, he really loves his brother and Lin. Their parents died early, and the two of them survived the most difficult time. As the saying goes, the eldest brother is the father, and to some extent, Hezhen raises the younger brother as his own son. And Lin Guan's luck is good, the only regret is that he died early. Seeing his brother, who is 13 years younger than himself, pass away, Hezhen is sad in his heart. So I poured all my emotions into my nephew, which was quite loving.
He Yan had long expected that there would be such a day, as the favorite of the Qianlong Emperor, all his hopes were pinned on Qianlong. Even if you have other thoughts in your heart, you don't dare to seduce other princes. They have all boarded Qianlong's "boat", where dare they come down easily, and the master will not allow it. According to historical records, after Qianlong became empress dowager, he did not give up the administration of the imperial government. To some extent, the Jiaqing Emperor was not a family, and the real ruler was Qianlong, and Hezhen was the "sword" in his hand.
He often reprimanded Jiaqing, hating that this was not good, that was not good, which meant that his son could not do it. The main purpose of this is to continue to control the government of the dynasty, and as for Jean Hezhen's appearance, it is considered to kill two birds with one stone. It will not affect the feelings between their father and son, and the most critical point is to destroy the relationship between Jiaqing and Hezhen, and not to betray themselves.
Arrange your nephew properly
For Jiaqing, this kind of "being a grandson" day is difficult to tolerate. Suffering from the fact that he was not in charge at that time, he had to choose to be patient and smile at Hezhen. Survived until qianlong's death. Jiaqing did not liquidate Hezhen, and Hezhen could only passively accept this "result".
After Hezhen was imprisoned, at the behest of Jiaqing, the ministers impeached and folded the zi and kept handing it up. Directly listed a large number of crimes, in addition to embezzlement and bribery, there are others. He Yan had long been prepared for the ending, and at this time he had to consider how to keep his family, especially the fate of the men in the family.
But the Jiaqing Emperor would not allow it, he had contact with outsiders, and there were many secret agents around him. In this environment, who should we please? After thinking about it for a while, he finally remembered a person, that is, Fu Chang'an, who was locked up next door. So he quickly woke up this man and told him one thing, if he went out, ask him to take care of his nephew.
The other party completes his entrustment
Although Fu Chang'an was also imprisoned like Hezhen, the situation of the two people was very different. Basically, he had no chance of escaping these charges, but Fu Chang'an's crime was not so serious. At most it has been "suppressed" for decades, and the key is that this person is quite young, and sooner or later there will be a day of coming out. At this critical juncture, the only one who can be entrusted is Fu Chang'an.
This time, he was entrusted with taking care of his nephew on his deathbed, and he did not say that he did not care about his son, not that he did not care. This was due to his precautionary plan and arranged for him to marry a princess so that he would not be killed. As for the nephew, it is different, even if he is not executed, his living treatment is very poor. Only one deceased person can be arranged to take care of his nephew. Fu Chang'an was also shocked when he heard about it, but considering the relationship between the two people, he still agreed to Hezhen's request.
As for the later ending, it is true that as He Yan expected, Fu Chang'an was not killed, but was hidden by the snow. By the 21st year of Jiaqing, this person returned to the official field, although he did not return to the previous highlight moment, but his life was not bad. After so many tribulations, he always kept in mind the promise he made to Hezhen and has been secretly protecting and protecting his nephew's family.
brief summary
As the saying goes, people will die and their words are good, and this is reflected in Hezhen. We must look at Hezhen dialectically, and being able to be so favored in the Qianlong Dynasty is not just sweet-mouthed. Objectively evaluated, this person can be in the Manchu Dynasty civil and martial arts, indeed quite high. If it weren't for too much greed, life wouldn't have ended up like this.
On his deathbed, asking his old friend to take care of his nephew was a kindness. Maybe at the end of his life, he will be relieved of all the past and fight for a lifetime, even if the family wealth is not as good as the peace of the family. For us, seeing the tragedy of Hezhen reminds us not to be too greedy in doing things, otherwise it is really too late to regret it.
