Speaking of the princes of the Qing Dynasty, I believe that many people can say a few words, the advocate of the foreign affairs movement Prince Gong Yili, the most corrupt official in modern times "Iron Hat King" Yi Li, there is a bitter can not say that can only silently help Cixi repair the garden of the Guangxu father Offiel Prince Yizhen ... Although these princes have a high or low ability to handle government affairs, and their historical evaluations are not the same, they are definitely smart people, otherwise they would not be able to make achievements in their respective "areas of expertise".
But to say which prince is the most maverick, the most able to pretend to be crazy and stupid, the most intelligent, the above-mentioned "Yi" character princes are really tender. The prince who is going to talk about it below usually loves to eat dead people's things, and also likes to do funerals for himself, leaving a life-saving poem after death, he is the fifth brother of the Yongzheng Emperor and prince Hongzhi.
Hongzhi was born in the fifty-first year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1712), at this time the original crown prince had been deposed for the second time, and the Fourth Master Party and the Eighth Master Party were tit-for-tat, during the white-hot period of the Ninth Son's conquest. Although Hongzhi was still a child at this time, the royal children were not cattle herders, and they also knew a little about the situation in the DPRK and China.
Ten years ago, Hongzhi saw his uncles fighting for the throne in a daze, and after his father ascended the throne to become the Yongzheng Emperor, he saw how tragic the results of the unsuccessful competition for the throne were. In the fourth year of Yongzheng (1726), when Hongzhi was 15 years old, his uncles were punished by his father one by one, and the eighth uncle and nine uncles were also renamed "Akina" and "Seth Black", although it was not the meaning of pigs and dogs, but it was not a good word, Yongzheng directly scolded the ninth brother "is a stupid fat and bloated person who is arrogant and arrogant and rebellious and shameless".
Hongzhi, who personally felt the cruelty of the political struggle, felt a little afraid of the throne, and as early as Yongzheng's ascension to the throne, his brother Hongli was secretly made a monarch, which Could not have been unaware of, so he had no intention of competing with his brother for the throne, and only hoped to enjoy the glory and wealth well. In order to let his brother relax his heart, he could only let himself play as crazy as possible, which led to the farce of Hongzhi eating the tribute of the dead and doing funerals for himself.
Now Chinese are very shy about the funeral in a hundred years, but Hongzhi said to others: "No one has a hundred years of undead. "In the palace, he directed a large group of people to do white things, watched them mourn themselves for fun, and even made funeral utensils by themselves. If Hongzhi was born in the late Qing Dynasty, he would definitely be a good entrepreneur and a dragon in white things.
In the "Yongzheng Dynasty", a dialogue between Yongzheng and Hongzhi was arranged according to this historical fact, which is intriguing.
Yongzheng: The dojo is done? Amma called you out at this time, won't you be infected with blood and light, right?
Hongzhi: Emperor Amma Shengming, those faint words of the sons and daughters were originally to prevaricate the people of the world, and the children were really because they could not do their errands well, and they were afraid that they would add chaos to the emperor Amma in the end, so they came up with such an excuse, asking the emperor Ama to rule the sins of the children and the emperor.
Yongzheng: If you say it yourself, you are not a bully, and when you do this, Amma can also understand that it is better for you to mix with those monks and Taoists all day than to mix with those officials of the imperial court. At a young age, I knew that Mingzhe was better than you Amma.
Hongzhi was still afraid that others would not trust him, and simply wrote a poem, "The world is impermanent and the golden bottle is delayed, and the cup and cup are drunk and red dust." Life is rare to have a confidant, push the cup for the cup of words ancient and modern. He showed that he had no intention of competing for the throne, but only wanted to be a rich and noble prince in peace and stability, so this poem was also called "life-saving poem" by posterity.
After Hongli succeeded to the throne, he also gave this brother special favor, giving him all the original royal finances of Yongzheng, and even Hongzhi did not blame Qianlong for fighting with the military chancellor above the court, and enjoyed all the glory and wealth until Qianlong died of illness in the thirty-fifth year. Qianlong's evaluation of this younger brother was, "Pure in nature, scrupulous in perseverance, studying together for many years, and deep friendship." ”
Born in the imperial family, living a rich and stable life is probably the best destination for an individual. Can't help but remind people of Prince Alcohol's family motto: wealth is also great, production is also great, and later the descendants are also great disasters, if you ask this reason, if you ask what is the reason, the children and grandchildren are bold and bold, and they are not afraid of major events in heaven, and they will not give up without losing their families.
