The imperial palace of the dynasty was invaded, which was unique in the history of the pre-Qing Dynasty! During the Jiaqing period, the imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty was invaded, and the Jiaqing Emperor was very embarrassed.
During the Jiaqing period, after the White Lotus Sect was in turmoil, various churches sprung up in various places, and the Tenrikyo Sect appeared secretly in Suncheon Province.
The leader of the Tianli Sect was Lin Qing, who was originally a scoundrel, and the first to join the Bagua Sect, and later the Hongyang Sect, the Kangua Sect, and the Jingua Sect in Huaxian County in Gyeonggi were merged, and the Tianli Sect was organized, and several times went to Henan, Shandong, and other places to contact Li Wencheng, Feng Keshan, and others, because of their power and ambitions, they wanted to drive the Qing government out of the Central Plains and overthrow the Qing government.
He ordered Li Wu, the backbone of the sect, to make knives, guns and weapons in Gu'an County, and at the same time select more than 200 elite people from the believers in Wanping County to conduct exercises and form a rebel army. At the same time, Lin Qing secretly contacted the eunuchs in the palace as guides and internal responses.
Originally, an appointment was made with the Henan side of Shandong, li Wencheng, Feng Keshan, and other Henan went all the way north and attacked Beijing from the outside, while Lin Qing assassinated the emperor internally, and the inside should cooperate with the outside to overthrow the Qing government in one fell swoop.
Unexpectedly, Li Wencheng's side of the matter was leaked, Li Wencheng was arrested by the government, and the rest of the congregations saw that the leader was arrested, so they decided to raise an incident in advance and attack the county court to rescue Li Wencheng.
Lin Qing did not know that there was an accident in Henan, and when he heard that Jiaqing was about to return from Chengde, some people suggested that they should first capture the imperial city and then attack Jiaqing.
In 1813, a team of more than two hundred people quickly mixed into the imperial city, and the leader Lin Qing stayed in the area. Led by eunuchs, they fought near the Concord Gate and the Cangzhen Gate, and all the outnumbered people were killed.
Another way forty or fifty people rushed into the palace, and soon arrived at the area of Longzongmen, the palace was in chaos, at this time, the later Daoguang Minning, at a critical moment, stood up and organized eunuchs and others to resist together, he himself climbed to the Yangxin Hall, killed several people with guns, the believers were terrified, wanted to escape, and were all captured by the reinforcements of the officers and soldiers.
After the Jiaqing Emperor learned of this, he quickly returned to Beijing, and after investigation, it was found that not only did there be eunuchs as internal responses, but the celing of the town guarding the palace gate actually scattered and fled without a fight; there were also believers who had leaked the news before the incident, and no one took it seriously, and the Inspection of Lugou Bridge had found signs, informed Anping County Ling, and went to report to the infantry commander Ji Lun together. Ji Lun didn't investigate, he thought they had nothing to do, and scolded. There was also a relative of a believer who was on an errand in the Yu King's Mansion, afraid of the matter of the Heavenly Li Sect, implicated himself, so he reported it to the Prince of Yu, but he did not expect that Yu Feng did not take it seriously, and under the wrong yin and yang, two hundred believers invaded the palace in this way.
Jiaqing was very embarrassed, he issued a decree on his own sins, a reward for meritorious deeds, a punishment for dereliction of duty, and the arrows on the Longzong Gate were left by Jiaqing to warn the descendants, after which the Tianli Sect collapsed under the suppression of the imperial court, and the leaders were killed. If the imperial city is occupied, Jiaqing is also the first emperor in history to be occupied by two hundred people!
