In 1780, the 30-year-old was in charge of the fortunes of The Emperor. The corruption case of Li Shiyao, the governor of Yungui, was solved by him, and the Qianlong Emperor appreciated he's talent and promoted him to Hubu Shangshu and former imperial chancellor.
Starting from the third class of the imperial guard at the age of 23, in 7 years, He yan was promoted all the way to enter the core leadership. Ironically, the Lee Shi-yao case was also the beginning of Hezhen's corruption, and most of the dirty silver seized went into his pocket.
He yan's good days were only the beginning, because he could vote for the emperor's favor.
One day, He Yan brought his 5-year-old son into the palace, and Qianlong couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw it, this is a handsome and beautiful little man, and he is smart and courteous. The emperor was overjoyed and gave the name "Fengshen Yinde", which means wealthy in Manchu, and he was optimistic about the future of this child.
His future is indeed worth looking forward to, not only because he was blessed by the emperor, but also because Qianlong regarded him as a good match for his most precious little daughter. It's just that things are impermanent, only too late.
First, the old woman, cherished incomparably
The Tenth Princess was qianlong's 65-year-old old man, who poured great enthusiasm into it before she was born. During her mother's pregnancy, she was promoted to a concubine, and the princess was born and immediately became Qianlong's most pampered child.
Since then, eunuchs who have gone to Yikun Palace to deliver gifts have been endless. Concubine Huan was pampered and arrogant, and once, she lost her temper and killed a palace maid. This greatly touched the royal taboo: the palace women of the Qing Dynasty were different from the previous dynasties, they were all the daughters of the Eight Banners General's family, selected to serve in the palace, if they were favored by the emperor, they could stay in the palace to obtain a position, and if they could not, they would also be sent back to their families to talk about marriage.
That's how the concubine herself climbed up and actually killed the palace maid. Qianlong was very angry, but he still looked at the princess's face, kept his face, demoted her back to the concubine position, and the tenth princess was raised by her people instead.
But the infant princess left her mother crying day and night, and Qianlong couldn't stand it for two days, so he gave her back to the concubine for the sake of the princess.
Second, people see people love, good nature
The Tenth Princess is Qianlong's pistachio, and as long as you see her, any troubles are forgotten.
The people in the palace all ate Qianlong's temper, and when he was angry or punished the palace people, he would try to bring the princess, and the princess was also kind-hearted, and when she saw someone being punished, she would help ease her cheeks. She either whispered softly, or counted her father and emperor with a straight face, qianlong did not think of the pestle, and ate this set very much.
The Tenth Princess was not a delicate lady, she had accompanied Qianlong on a hunting trip in male costume, so she had a close relationship with another concubine from the grassland, Concubine Rong (the legendary Concubine Xiang). When they rode together with Qianlong in the Mulan paddock, Qianlong's feelings for them also grew day by day.
Before princess Rong died, she gave her jewels to her old friends in the palace, and the biggest head was left to the tenth princess, and her biggest regret was that she did not wait for her to get married.
Third, a grand wedding, ten years of love
The Tenth Princess was born to a concubine and could only be crowned Princess Heshuo. However, the rules were not set for the emperor, and Qianlong wanted to give the treatment of the tenth princess and empress dowager, and was specially named Gu Lun and Princess Xiao.
In 1789, the princess was married, and Qianlong was knighted to the rank of Concubine Fengshen Yinde. On the day of the princess's wedding, the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu was busy with it, and held a preliminary ceremony at the Zhengda Guangming Hall and a feast in the Yongshou Palace. The dowry is 10 times that of the princess who was married before, and the hundred officials send marriage.
After marriage, the Tenth Princess and FengSheng Yinde lived happily, and Hezhen also asked his son to be at peace with Princess Qinser. They studied at home together and went out hunting together. Princess Hexiao had requirements for her husband, and he hoped that Fengsheng Yinde would be able to accomplish his deeds by virtue of his own ability, rather than lying under the grace of his elders and becoming a knight.
Once it snowed heavily, Feng Sheng Yin De was still childish and played with snow. The princess pretended to be angry: "Ru Nian has passed the crown, still a foolish child play?" Feng Shen Yinde pretended to be afraid and knelt down to beg for forgiveness. The princess smiled and supported: "Ru don't make a child's play, read poetry with me!" "
Princess Hexiao had a son, but unfortunately died prematurely, and she was unable to have children because of this. For the sake of the heirs of the Nyulülu family, she took the initiative to persuade Fengshen Yinde to take concubines.
Over time, the princess gradually learned about the financial resources of her husband's luxurious life. She once said to her husband with some concern: Your father is deeply favored by the emperor, and he does not want to repay the favor sincerely, but his corruption is getting worse and worse, and he is really worried that his wealth will not be protected in the future.
After ten years of loving living together, the princess's worries are about to come true.
Fourth, anger the wife, centrifugal detachment
In 1799, Fengsheng Yinde, who had been on the smooth side of the road, ushered in the biggest change in his life: Qianlong died. In just a few days, his father, He Yan, who was busy with the great funeral in the palace, was imprisoned, and for 15 days, he was ordered by the Jiaqing Emperor to commit suicide.
Hefu was raided and exiled by the whole clan.
FengSheng Yinde was spared because of the princess's intercession.
Suddenly falling from the sky to the ground, Feng Shen Yinde was numb. Before his death, He Yan built a luxurious cemetery for himself, Jiaqing demolished it on the grounds of overstepping the system, and it became a luxury for He Yan to enter the soil for Safety. It was still the princess who came forward and pleaded with Jiaqing before allowing Fengsheng Yinde and his cousin to go out of the city and bury Hezhen hastily.
Who killed the father? It can only be Jiaqing, and the Tenth Princess and Jiaqing brothers and sisters have a deep affection, and they have a vendetta against their father. Feng Shen Yinde began to let loose the skeleton, facing the princess coldly.
In 1803, Princess Shi Kuifu denounced Fengsheng Yinde for three major crimes: practicing martial arts and preparing to avenge his father. , attempting to poison the princess. During the national mourning period, he mixed with concubines and gave birth to a daughter.
Jiaqing personally presided over the review, the first two items were illusory, and the last one was true. So he was dismissed from his post, confined at home, and thought about it behind closed doors. In 1807, he was simply transferred out of Beijing and went to UriaSutai to serve in the military. Three years later, at the request of the princess, he returned to Beijing to recuperate and died.
epilogue:
The Tenth Princess and the Fengshen Yinde were once golden children and jade girls, and were the envy of young men and women. When the great calamity approached, Feng Sheng Yinde, who grew up in a favorable situation, could not figure out who he should complain about and what he should complain about, and could only lament: "The cause of fame and fame is in vain, why bury the bones and why do you need an epitaph." "At the same time as self-abandonment, he often angered the princess.
The relationship between husband and wife is so, and Princess Xiaoxiao has done her best, but in the end it cannot be bridged.
They have had 10 years of good times, and then they have gone through 12 years of stumbling days, state affairs and family affairs are intertwined, constantly cutting, and rationalizing.
Princess Hexiao was widowed at the age of 36 and did not have the right to pursue happiness again, according to the rules of the Qing Dynasty: the princess could not marry again. In the days that followed, she raised two daughters born to concubines and adopted another son until her death at the age of 49.
