A minister of power is a minister in a dynasty who is powerful enough to pose a threat to the supreme ruler. In the more than 2,000 years of feudal dynasties, not only did there appear many harem women who controlled the government, but also many powerful ministers, such as the Qianlong dynasty and the temporary Hezhen, known as the "Second Emperor", it is no wonder that as soon as Qianlong died, the Jiaqing Emperor got rid of hezhen.
In addition, the Shunzhi Emperor was able to ascend the throne and the Qing army entered the customs, all of which were inseparable from the support of the powerful minister Dolgun, but the relationship between the regent Dolgun and the Shunzhi Emperor was not good, and Dolgun's life was also called the Great Qing Bow, but soon after his death, the Shunzhi Emperor stripped Dolgun of his title and dug Up Dolgun's grave.
Until nearly a hundred years later, in the forty-third year of Qianlong, the Qianlong Emperor commented on dolgun's ordinary work, commenting that he "set the foundation of the country and opened up the foundation, became the cause of unification, and made the most meritorious contributions." ”
And the Kangxi Emperor ascended the throne at the age of 8, the power minister around him was Ao Bai, Ao Bai was born in the general gate, once followed the Emperor Taiji to conquer the four sides, was the most trusted warrior of the Emperor Taiji, known as the "First Warrior of Manchuria", during the Shunzhi period, Ao Bai was also highly valued, became the minister of parliament, and before his death, the Shunzhi Emperor also included Ao Bai in the Gu Ming Minister.
However, as the elder of the Three Dynasties, Ao Bai was jealous of the young Kangxi, Ao Bai was an extremely popular subject, and the Kangxi Emperor really had to defend, and the Kangxi Emperor originally had a bodyguard named Wu He by his side, but because he was not very polite to Ao Bai in front of the imperial court, he was executed by Ao Bai for riding the imperial horse and taking the imperial bow to shoot deer.
The occurrence of this incident undoubtedly shocked the Kangxi Emperor, after all, the beating of the dog depends on the owner, Ao Bai obviously did not take the little emperor Kangxi Emperor in his eyes, but the matter did not end here, and the Wu He family, including his father and brothers, died because of Ao Bai.
Ao Bai's behavior did not care about the emperor, could it be that he wanted to be the emperor himself? In the eighth year of Kangxi (1669), the Kangxi Emperor first sent Aobai's cronies to various places, and Aobai did not know whether he really did not take the little emperor to heart or was loyal to the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and he did not think much about it.
After Ao Bai entered the palace, he was captured by a group of teenagers, originally Ao Bai was going to be beheaded, but he tried his best to show his innocence to the Kangxi Emperor and let the Kangxi Emperor see the scars on his body, which were all proof of his sincere heart for daqing, and in the end Ao Bai was not executed, but he died in the forbidden place shortly after.
However, in his later years, the Kangxi Emperor would regret capturing Aobai and personally rehabilitating him, calling him a loyal subject. As we all know, when people are old, they experience more things, and they see more comprehensive things, and naturally they are much less youthful and vigorous.
If Ao Bai really had the idea of usurping power and usurping the throne, the Kangxi Emperor would certainly not have lived to be pro-government, but Ao Bai did not do it, and Ao Bai could be trusted and valued by two generations of emperors, naturally there were also his superiority, and Ao Bai was born and died on the battlefield for the Qing Dynasty many times, and his loyalty was also a lesson from the sun and the moon.
But because it was too brilliant, Ao Bai could not give up everything in the imperial court, it is reasonable to say that when the Kangxi Emperor was more than ten years old, Ao Bai was already old and should enjoy his retirement life, but he was unwilling to give up his power and withdraw from the political stage, and he was also suspected by the Kangxi Emperor who wanted to be pro-government and make some achievements, and finally died in the forbidden place.
