Editor丨Xiaofu has something to say
Everyone knew that the Qianlong Emperor cared about his brotherhood, especially his two younger brothers.
However, the fifth brother Hongli was frightened by Qianlong's glare, and even held a funeral for himself, pretending to be crazy and selling stupid, and finally collapsed and died.
The other was even worse, after being removed from the knighthood, he couldn't afford to get sick, and after the Qianlong Emperor came to visit, he just left on his front foot, but he shouted: "I can finally die!" So he drove the crane west.
The two younger brothers passed away one after another, what did Qianlong do to get them to where they are now?
Qianlong became an emperor experience
The Qing Dynasty is a very important dynasty in history, the last feudal dynasty in China's more than 5,000 years of history, in fact, the emperors of the Qing Dynasty have achieved great achievements, but the Qianlong Emperor is definitely the most famous one.
In 1711, the Qianlong Emperor was born in the prince's palace, his father was the Yongzheng Emperor, and he was born in such a family, in our current words, he was born in Rome, so he received a good education from birth and read poetry from an early age.
When he was ten years old, he met his grandfather, the Kangxi Emperor, for the first time, and he was very liked by Kangxi and even took him to the palace to raise him personally.
It was precisely because of the favor of the Kangxi Emperor that Qianlong's father, the Yongzheng Emperor, could inherit the throne, and Yongzheng made Qianlong crown prince as soon as he succeeded to the throne.
After Yongzheng's death in 1735, Qianlong officially ascended the throne and began his long journey as emperor.
After he ascended the throne, he advocated Confucian education to govern the country, and it was precisely because of this policy that the Qing Dynasty came to a prosperous era.
Qianlong reigned for more than 60 years, and his life can be said to be full of great achievements and legends. More than this, it is worth saying the bits and pieces of Qianlong and his two brothers.
Old five hongday
Qianlong ranked fourth among all the children of the Yongzheng Emperor, and when he ascended the throne, he had only two younger brothers, namely Lao Wu Hongtian and Lao Liu Hongzhan.
Hongli grew up with his brother Qianlong since he was a child, so in front of Qianlong he will always be like a child, big grin, even if Qianlong became the emperor, Hongli still wants to say whatever he wants in front of him, never care about Qianlong's identity, just as unscrupulous as when he was a child, after all, beating Xiao Hongli is not afraid of his brother.
Whether it was before he became the crown prince or the emperor, Hongli was still only Yong when he was a child, he would rush ahead and protect his brother when he made a mistake, and he was never big or small in front of his brother, and even like when he was a child, he would lose his temper with Qianlong when he encountered something unpleasant.
Hongli was very cheerful and straightforward, and he liked to participate in political affairs, but because his personality was too unrestrained, he once had a public dispute with the Qianlong Emperor's cronies in the court.
For a while, Hongli couldn't say anything about his cronies, and actually raised his fist and hit his cronies directly in the face, punching and punching in front of Qianlong, and this crony did not fight back for Qianlong's face. Just silently endured all this.
This incident soon spread and caused a lot of reaction in the dynasty, everyone thought that Hongday was too wanton, and even moved his hand in the court, completely ignoring the Qianlong Emperor.
As the saying goes, beating a dog depends on the owner, and Hongday's brazen beating of the Qianlong Emperor's cronies is enough to prove that he did not take the Qianlong Emperor seriously in his heart.
If he really obeyed Qianlong, the emperor, he would definitely not dare to hit Qianlong's cronies in front of so many people, because this was undoubtedly refuting the emperor's face. In the face of the doubts of the ministers of the DPRK, Qianlong did not say anything or punish Hongday, but silently endured this matter.
What really made Qianlong feel that he couldn't bear to get angry in public was in an imperial examination.
Qianlong attaches great importance to the imperial examination, because he feels that the imperial examination can select many excellent talents for the royal family, so he attaches great importance to every imperial examination.
This time, he sent Hongli to accompany him to the invigilator, and seeing that it was time for dinner, Hongyi asked Qianlong to go back to the palace to eat and rest first, and he could stay and proctor.
However, Qianlong, who has always been very attentive to the imperial examination, was worried that someone would cheat, and insisted on returning to the palace after proctoring the exam. This action was like stepping on Hongday's tail, and immediately he began to speak without words, he asked Qianlong if he didn't leave because he couldn't trust himself, worried that he would collect money to help others cheat, since he couldn't believe it, why let him come to proctor the exam.
As soon as these words came out, everyone present stayed in place, and this time Qianlong did not speak, but his murderous eyes had said it all.
He stared at Hongli without saying a word, Hongli had never seen Qianlong so serious, was frightened and did not speak again, until he calmed down the next day he began to be faintly afraid, feeling that he went to the palace to apologize to Qianlong, Qianlong said that he did not speak at that time just did not want his brother to die because of the confrontation with the emperor, let him do it for himself.
However, Qianlong's warning did not have a long effect, although he has slightly relented since then, but how can the character cultivated by beating Xiao be easily corrected.
No, once Qianlong and the three brothers Hongxi Hongzhan went to visit the Empress Dowager together, and when asking the Empress Dowager for peace, Hongxi accidentally sat on the emperor's special cushion.
The appearance of this incident brought the incident of him beating Qianlong's cronies in the court again to everyone, this time Qianlong did not appease, he was sentenced to Hongday's fine for three years, but he did not expect that Hongday's perfunctory behavior during the punishment period again angered Qianlong and was chased and fined for a year.
From then on, Hongli became like a changed person, became crazy, very keen to do funerals for himself, often dressed his mansion in the appearance of a spiritual hall, and then asked the subordinate to bring him food in the form of a food offering, and then mourned, the subordinate wept, and he sat there and began to eat tribute.
In fact, Hongli is not crazy at all, he is just pretending to be crazy and selling stupid, he knows that his character will one day provoke Qianlong to ask for his own life, he pretends to be crazy and sells stupid just to save his life. It was not until the thirty-fifth year of Qianlong that Hongli left this world.
Old Six Hongzhan
Compared with Hongday, the old sixth Hongzhan is completely different, Hongzhan is like a rich king who does not do his job, in addition to walking birds and painting realistically all day, his biggest hobby is making money.
He was never interested in the affairs of the dynasty and did not express any opinions, and Qianlong was very fond of his younger brother, so although Hongzhan did not work as an official in the dynasty, his life was still prosperous.
Hongzhan loves to make money, especially his status as a prince, making it extra easy for him to make money. But there is no wall in the world that does not leak, and in a business of reselling ginseng, Hongzhan was sued by the merchant Jiang Qipraseodymium in front of Qianlong.
It turned out that in this ginseng business, Hongzhan actually wanted to use the ginseng collected at a low price to pay off the debt. Jiang Qiwei must have been disobedient, so he could only sue Qianlong, who thought that Hongzhan was really embarrassed by this behavior and decided to teach him a lesson.
Soon, Qianlong ordered people to start investigating the business related to Hongzhan, and this investigation really shocked Qianlong. It turned out that for so many years, Hongzhan had been using his status as a prince to bully the people, often taking other people's treasures at a very low price or even for nothing, and then selling them to dignitaries at a high price.
Because of his special status, no one has ever dared to refuse, and with Wang Ye's identity and unfair trading system, Hongzhan can be said to have made a lot of money. In this regard, Qianlong was very sad and disappointed.
He has been very partial to this younger brother since he was a child, because his younger brother does not love imperial politics, Qianlong is worried about his life, after he became the emperor, he gave Hongzhanyue twice as much money, he really did not expect Hongzhan to be insatiable in love money to this point, he was very disappointed.
However, what made Qianlong even more unbelievable was that Hongzhan tried to buy the military aircraft minister Ali Gonda with money, and then planted his confidence in the military aircraft.
What a place is the military aircraft department, how can people arbitrarily insert personnel into it, it can be said that it is a forbidden area in Qianlong's heart, as long as he does not step into the forbidden area, Qianlong can let Hongzhan be unscrupulous for a lifetime. But when he ran into this forbidden area, it was difficult for Qianlong to sit idly by. So he decreed that Hongzhan be removed from his knighthood and stop the monthly money given to him forever.
Now Hongzhan was really afraid, he realized that Qianlong was really angry, but where could Hongzhan, who had never been wronged in his life, be able to withstand such a blow, and soon he was seriously ill and bedridden.
When Qianlong heard that Hongzhan fell ill, he rushed to Hongzhan's mansion as soon as possible. Looking at the dying brother in front of him, Qianlong was very distressed, after all, it was his younger brother who had been doting on for decades, and he really couldn't bear it, so he told Hongzhan that he originally just wanted to scare him and make him realize the seriousness of the problem, and if he didn't commit it again, he wouldn't pursue anything too much, but he didn't expect that this directly made Hongzhan sick.
Hearing that Qianlong was not really angry with himself, Hongzhan was relieved, and he forcibly knelt on the bed with the help of his subordinates. After Qianlong explained everything and left, Hongzhan who was lying on the bed finally smiled and shouted: "I can really die this time."
But he died with relief, because he knew that his brother did not really blame him, and he did not remember hating him in his heart, and his worries were superfluous, so he really relaxed.
Not long after, Hongzhan died, and after his death, Qianlong restored his title and buried him in a beautiful manner.
Since then, Qianlong has no brothers by his side, and after the death of the two brothers one after another, Qianlong has been devastated and has become more serious than before. Many times he thinks that he does not want to repeat the mistakes of the Yong period, he has seen too many brothers killing, so after he takes the throne, he thinks that he can change this through his own ability.
So he repeatedly tolerated the little nature of the two brothers, because he only wanted to build the perfect brotherhood in his heart. But after all, he is the king of a country, the emperor of thousands of people, as the saying goes, the Son of Heaven breaks the law and sins the same as the common people, so even his own brother is okay.
How can his brother sit idly by when he is in a high position but still oppresses the people, thousands of people look at him, and the Manchu dynasty also looks at him, under this feudal royal power, what kind of flesh and blood affection can he talk about?
In the end, the Qianlong Emperor followed in the footsteps of his father, the Yongzheng Emperor, and his two brothers died one after another, leaving him to regret for the rest of his life.
Since ancient times, the elder brother has not been good, not to mention the elder brother in the palace, as the emperor's own brother makes a mistake, if the emperor does not care about covering them, it will definitely make people panic and end up with the title of a comatose king.
When brothers make mistakes, the emperor will not tolerate the same treatment, and those who should be killed will be punished by killing, and they will end up cold-blooded and ruthless and disregard brotherhood. It's hard to do anyway.
In fact, sometimes I can still understand Qianlong's mood, in other words, you and me, in the face of such things, what kind of decisions can we make? Welcome to comment again to leave a message
