The Kangxi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty was a shrewd and capable monarch, but in the later period, his sons were serious in the party and government, that is, the ninth son took the concubine. During this time, the princes fought fiercely and used all kinds of means, and all this Kangxi saw in his eyes at that time, deposed the crown prince twice, and finally ascended the throne by the fourth son of the emperor, Yongzheng.
After Yongzheng ascended the throne, he took revenge on his brothers, and all the princes finally ended up with a tragic end, among which there was a prince, who did not participate in the struggle for the throne in Kangxi's later years, but still let Yongzheng imprisoned to death.
It turned out that this person was Kangxi's third son, Yin Zhi, and it is said that during Kangxi's reign, Yin Zhi was deeply loved by Kangxi, and kangxi often went to Yin Zhi Mansion to show favor in order to show favor to Yin Zhi. However, after Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, Yin Zhi's situation plummeted.
It is said that Yongzheng's favorite brother Yin Xiang died, and at that time everyone cried like a tearful person at the funeral, except for Yin Zhi, who had no expression and a calm face until the end of the funeral, but this matter was dissatisfied by the Yongzheng Emperor, so he was taken to the Zongren Mansion to discuss the crime, and later because of the impeachment of the ministers, Yin Zhi was imprisoned in the Yong'an Pavilion in Jingshan, and soon died of illness.
