A few years ago, the Kangxi Succession Edict was made public again, which clearly stated that the fourth prince yong prince had passed on the throne, and after reading this edict, the mystery of the Yongzheng Emperor's ascension to the throne seemed to have been unveiled, and there was no such thing as usurpation, so many people speculated that the reason why the Yongzheng Emperor had borne the insult of usurping the throne for hundreds of years was mainly because he had suppressed his brothers after he ascended the throne, and because the New Deal was too harsh, which led to the dissatisfaction of hundreds of officials and the imperial family, so they slandered his usurpation.
But there is no wind and waves, about the mystery of Yongzheng's ascension to the throne, a scholar named Jin Hengyuan in Shanghai said that Yongzheng's throne was not right, that is, he usurped the throne, he spent his life studying this problem, he claimed to be the seventh grandson of the fourteenth son of Kangxi general Wang Yinyu, and once wrote a large number of books to argue for Yongzheng's usurpation, such as "Yongzheng Emperor Usurpation Says New Evidence", "Southern Suburbs Sacrifice Heaven Solves Doubts", "On the Death of the Kangxi Emperor" and so on, according to Jin Hengyuan, it is very simple to verify this problem. You can compare the testaments of the three Manchu and Mongolian scripts.
Although we see that there is a saying that prince Yong was passed down in the Han testament, but in the Manchu "Kangxi Testament" there is no word for the succession of the throne Yin Chan, according to Jin Hengyuan said that this Chinese testament was forged by Long Keduo, before the death of Kangxi, Yin Chan conspired with Zhang Tingyu and Long Keduo to tamper with the edict and forge such a will, and another historical detail also revealed doubts, that is, according to the "Qing History Draft", Kangxi died on the night of October 13, 1722 AD. Before that, Kangxi urgently summoned the princes into the palace, among which there were the Eight Ye Party and the Three Princes, the Seven Princes and others, which is the history of the eight people who received the same edict, but this detail was only published in 1729, and at this time the Eight Ye Party had been wiped out, the insiders died, the captivity was imprisoned, it was obvious that the Yongzheng Emperor was weak-minded, and only after eradicating the insiders was this forged detail.
In addition, before Yin Chan replaced Kangxi to sacrifice heaven, Yin Chan frequently mobilized palace guards many times, and the right to move guards at this time was in the hands of Long Keduo, without Long Keduo's support, Yongzheng could not mobilize guards, in addition, in the "Kangxi Shilu", Yin Chan was "waiting for Saint Ann" and Qianlong's "Shizong Shilu" became "Respectfully Request saint Ann". In addition, the Qing history expert Wang Zhonghan has personally examined the Manchu version of the Kangxi Testament, which is mutilated, but there is no word for the succession of the Prince of Yong, which Mr. Wang Zhonghan has raised doubts in the "Lecture Notes on the History of the Manchu People of the Qing Dynasty".
Thinking carefully, Yongzheng is full of doubts, after the death of Kangxi, Yongzheng will be Kangxi hastily buried, after ascending the throne to the previous political enemies and brothers are unusually suppressed, perhaps it is precisely to block their mouths, yongzheng emperor in the thirteen years of the reign of the yongzheng emperor although conscientious, very diligent, can be said to be the first diligent emperor in the history of the Qing Dynasty, but because of the mystery of usurpation by people criticized for a hundred years, if you throw away this mystery, objectively and fairly speaking, the Yongzheng Dynasty is the turning point of the Qing Dynasty, if there is no Yongzheng Emperor, The Qing Dynasty was probably going to die 100 years early.
Most of the emperors after Qianlong worshiped the Prosperous Kangqian Dynasty created by the ancestors, but the last emperor Puyi had a special affection for the Yongzheng Emperor, believing that the Yongzheng Emperor was a model for his own study, and now that history has turned into a wisp of smoke, there is probably no need to argue about who is right and who is wrong, as long as those who contribute to history are heroes in the hearts of the people, even if the Yongzheng usurpation of the throne is true, it is not hidden, and it is impossible to cover up the fact that the Yongzheng Emperor is diligent for the country and turns the tide.
