The Qing Dynasty was the last feudal dynasty in Chinese history, which lasted for more than 200 years after twelve emperors, of which the "Kang Yongqian Prosperous Era" was the heyday of the Qing Dynasty, after which this great dynasty gradually declined. Among the princes of the prosperous world, the Qianlong Emperor should be the most relaxed, he had the road paved for him by the Kangxi and Yongzheng Emperors, and he was also quite outstanding in his political achievements, not to mention the qianlong dynasty's able to write and martial ministers.
Among the military generals who had distinguished themselves in the Qianlong period, Wuya Zhaohui was definitely one of the most dazzling courtiers, who was brave and good at war, made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty, and won the trust of the Qianlong Emperor, so much so that Qianlong married his daughters to his sons.
Uya Zhaohui was a Manchurian Zhenghuangqi and a grandson of the Yongzheng Emperor's biological mother, Empress Xiaogongren of the Uya clan, and could be said to be of a noble status. Zhaohui did not have the clumsy style of ordinary aristocratic children, he was good at literature and martial arts from an early age, and he joined the Military Aircraft Department at the age of 23. In the thirteenth year of Qianlong, Zhaohui moved to serve as a servant of the household department, and was responsible for the grain and salary affairs of the army during the Battle of Jinchuan and the pacification of Dzungar, and supervised the dispatch of troops from various provinces.
Because of Zhaohui's excellent ability and the perfect completion of all his work, the Qianlong Emperor granted him the position of strategy of defending northern Xinjiang and the post of deputy general of Dingbian Right in 1756. So on the battlefield, Zhaohui began to discover the wind of a brave and resolute general. He first quelled Bayar's rebels, and then repeatedly accomplished feats in the Rebellion of Great and Small And Zhuo, the Battle of Heishui Camp, and the Battle of Huerxuan, and won the glory of the Peacock Plume granted by the Qianlong Emperor.
After his triumphant return to Beijing, Zhaohui was listed in the Qianlong Emperor's map of the rebellion that calmed down the return to Xinjiang, hanging in the Purple Light Pavilion, and the limelight was no different for a while. However, only four years after his return to Beijing, that is, in 1764 AD, the 56-year-old Zhaohui finally could not resist the torture of chronic diseases and died in the winter of the Forbidden City.
At that time, Zhaohui's son Zalantai was only 8 years old, and the family suddenly lost the main heart, and the remaining old and weak women and children were all sad. The Qianlong Emperor was also grieving over Zhaohui's death, personally came to the funeral to pay tribute to him, and also ordered Zhaohui to help take care of the funeral affairs with the attendants of the Same Clan, and the reward was eight times that of the courtiers of the same rank, which had reached the standard of the prince.
After doing this, the Qianlong Emperor still felt that he was not enough, he hesitated before leaving, looked at the still young Zalantai, and untied the purse around his waist and placed it on the table of the Spirit Hall. Zhaohui's family members were shocked, and the original sadness was also diluted by the sudden reward: according to Manchu customs, one party gave the purse to the other party to marry him.
At that time, the age-appropriate Gege in the palace was the daughter of Concubine Ling (Empress Xiaoyi Chun), Princess Ling had always been favored, and the Ninth Princess, who had just turned 7 years old, was also quite popular, and Qianlong's move directly determined the fate of Zalantai to become a horse master in the future, and also showed his importance to the Wuya clan.
After figuring this out, Zhaohui's family suddenly turned from sadness to joy, they knew that Zhaohui could not let go of this young son, and now that the emperor had personally decided on the affair, Zhaohui should also be blinded if he knew about it.
Seven years later, when the Ninth Princess turned 14 years old, Qianlong personally named her Princess Heshuo and Ke, and the next year she married Zalantai, thus forming a beautiful marriage.
