The thirteenth brother's words before his death made Yongzheng suddenly repent, and he turned around and forced his own son Hongshi to die
As the emperor of the Qing Dynasty who reigned for a relatively short time, the Yongzheng Emperor reigned for only 13 years, but in these 13 years, Yongzheng played a huge historical role, as the emperor of the Kangqian Dynasty, Yongzheng worked hard to carry out drastic social reforms, and the continuation of the prosperous era of the Weiqing Dynasty played a crucial role, and thus won the reputation of the Prosperous Emperor. In fact, in the last years of the Kangxi Emperor, the national strength of the Qing Dynasty had already appeared in a decadent trend, not only the national treasury was empty, the people's livelihood was loaded, and the struggle for the throne between the brothers aggravated the decline of the Qing Dynasty.
After Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, in order to consolidate the imperial power, he made many tough measures, not only to carry out various social reforms, but also to eliminate the Eight Masters Party and suppress the partisan disputes in the DPRK, whether it was the selection of officials or the innovation of the system, Yongzheng made a lot of efforts. Although Yongzheng had already sat firmly as emperor after the struggle for the throne of the Kangxi Dynasty, the Eight Ye Party did not give up because of this, and had been plotting to seize the throne again.
Although on the surface, the Eight Ye Party was respectful and respectful to Yongzheng, in private, it had already contacted various forces to prepare a sentence to overthrow Yongzheng's rule, and the most dangerous one was that the Eight Ye Party found the loophole in Yongzheng's decree and planned a palace coup when the Eight Banner Lords entered Beijing. But fortunately, the thirteenth brother arrived in time to regain the military power back into his own hands, which stabilized the situation and thwarted the rebellion of the Eight Ye Party.
Although this failure seriously affected the strength of the Eight Ye Party, this did not make them give up completely, but turned their heads to win over Yongzheng's son Hongshi in order to retaliate against the Yongzheng Emperor, and Hongshi, as the crown prince, had long coveted the throne, so he was born to unite with the Eight Ye Party to obtain the demand for political purposes. So with the addition of Hiroshi, the Eight Masters Party once again had new chips.
But it is really a pity that Crown Prince Hongshi did not survive to the end in the end, and he will not understand until he dies, all this is the arrangement of the Eight Ye Party, in the eyes of the Eight Ye Party, Hongshi simply cannot compete for the Hongli calendar, but as a means of revenge on Yongzheng, Hongshi's life and death are not in their consideration, and finally Hongshi has embarked on a dead end step by step.
Before Hiroshi was overthrown, Hiroshi, who knew that the throne was hopeless, had the idea of killing his younger brother Hiroshi. Fortunately, Hongli was resourceful and saw through Hiroshi's intrigue and trickery, and thus escaped the disaster of killing himself. This matter was eventually learned by Yongzheng, and with a half-hearted attitude, Yongzheng ling mo disposed of Hongshi twice, and did not hurt the killer, after all, this was his own son. Therefore, although Yongzheng scolded Him as a beast when he punished Hongshi, he was not willing to dispose of Hongshi immediately in his heart.
It was not until the death of the thirteenth brother that Yongzheng realized the seriousness of the situation. It turned out that before the Thirteenth Brother, he suspected that Hongshi was very similar to Yin Yu at that time, but he had always been difficult to open his mouth, and at this time, the limit was approaching, and he told Yongzheng about this doubt. After Yongzheng listened, his heart was also worried, but his heart was already moved to kill, and it was also after yongzheng returned that yongzheng used means to force Hongshi to die. Although it seems that Yongzheng is a bit ungodly of father-son friendship, as an emperor, his approach is actually reasonable, and if he does not do so, the stability of the Qing Dynasty will be impossible to talk about.
The thirteenth brother's doubts before his death made Yongzheng kill his heart and force his own son Hongshi to die alive
