There is a saying that "there will be rain in the sky, and there will be disasters in the madness of people", do everything to uphold their own heart, do not after they have made some achievements, they began to be arrogant and arrogant, no one in sight, the results of this are generally not good, such examples are very many, the Qing Yongzheng period of nian Tang Yao is the best example.
Nian Qianyao should be one of the Qing Dynasty ministers we are most familiar with, there are also many descriptions of Nian Qianyao in film and television dramas, such as Xu Zheng's "Li Wei as an Official", Tang Guoqiang's historical drama "Yongzheng Dynasty", etc., and more recently, look at "The Biography of Zhen Huan", we know from the play and historical materials that Nian Qianyao was indeed once valued and trusted by the Yongzheng Emperor, but later Nian Qianyao became tall and complacent, and gradually even Yongzheng did not pay attention to it, and finally attracted the disaster of killing.
We know that the Yongzheng Emperor actually belongs to the kind of person who is very "sinister", on the surface it actually seems harmless, but in fact, it has long been revealed that the killing machine has long been revealed, and among the nine sons of that year, it has to be said that Nian Qianyao really gave a lot of help, so Yongzheng was naturally full of gratitude to Nian Qianyao.
In the ancient imperial rule, what was the emperor most afraid of? There is no doubt that someone dares to provoke his authority, or even not to give him face, such a person to become any emperor is actually not liked, if you temporarily reuse you, it may be only because you are really useful in a short period of time, once you lose the value of use, then the next face is the disaster.
And Nian Qianyao this person is indeed a pampered and proud person, and even in the later period, he offended the Yongzheng Emperor everywhere, remembering that there is such a fragment in the "Biography of Zhen Huan", when Nian Qianyao returned from the rebellion, and then Yongzheng set up a banquet in the palace to entertain him, and there was also Concubine Hua as a companion at that time.
At this time, Nian Qianyao asked the chief eunuch around the emperor to pour wine for him, this request was actually disrespectful, to know that this eunuch was specially serving the Yongzheng Emperor, but he was asked to pour wine for Nian Xiangyao, which undoubtedly told the Yongzheng Emperor that the chancellor Nian Qianyao also wanted to enjoy the same treatment as you.
Although the Yongzheng Emperor did not directly anger at that time, he had already secretly decided in his heart that he must kill Nian Qianyao, and the final result was naturally the destruction of Nian Qianyao.
In the second year of Yongzheng, Nian Qianyao was stripped of his title by the Yongzheng Emperor, listed ninety-two major crimes, and was later given to commit suicide, so after Nian Qianyao's death, how did the Yongzheng Emperor deal with his family?
To tell the truth, Yongzheng is still very ruthless, in addition to the survival of the eldest son, other family members and even the slaves in the family have been implicated, it is indeed tragic!
Although it is said that "accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger", it is indeed the excessive pride and complacency of the strange Nian Tangyao, the courtier is the courtier, no matter what, you cannot offend Tianyan, otherwise there will be no good end.
