Nian Qianyao was a military minister of the Qing Dynasty, during the Kangxi Dynasty, he relied on his outstanding military talents to rise all the way in a short period of time, from a Han pawn to a Manchu Court Erpin Minister, and his promotion speed was very rare in the Qing Dynasty and even in all dynasties.
But it was such a military wizard who was eventually given death by the Yongzheng Emperor for various reasons, and his life was full of legends.
Nian Qianyao took countless concubines in his life, and after the Yongzheng Emperor killed him, Nian Qianyao left 80 wives and concubines, and the Yongzheng Emperor cruelly disposed of Nian Qianyao's wives and concubines.
Why was nian tangyao, who had made outstanding achievements, tragically killed by the emperor? How did the Yongzheng Emperor finally treat Nian Qianyao's wives and concubines?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" > the official path of the Kangxi Dynasty</h1>
Nian Qianyao was born in the 18th year of Kangxi, the Yongzheng Emperor Yinchen was born a year earlier than him, Nian Qianyao was born in a family of official eunuchs, his father was an official of the imperial court, the official to Huguang Inspector, Nian Qianyao was infected by his father since childhood, and read a lot of books.
Nian Qianyao took the imperial examination as an adult, successfully passed the entrance examination, and was subsequently able to enter the Hanlin Academy to serve.
Nian Qianyao's official promotion was quick, and he was valued by the Kangxi Emperor Xuanye, and before he was thirty years old, he was promoted to the governor of Sichuan and became a feudal official.
Nian Qianyao was very grateful for Xuan Ye's appreciation and promotion, and he wrote a recital to the emperor many times, indicating his determination to repay the emperor's gifts.
Nian Qianyao also lived up to the emperor's expectations, he went to Sichuan in the early days as an official, in a short period of time he traveled around Sichuan, found many ills, and proposed policies and methods to solve these problems, in order to set a good example, Nian Qianyao took the lead in not accepting gifts from the gentry officials, all of which was seen by Xuan Ye, and he also personally praised Nian Qianyao's behavior, and hoped that he would continue to maintain and become an example for the courtiers.
In 56 years of the Kangxi Dynasty, Dzungar's subordinates invaded Tibet on a large scale and killed the king of the Qing Dynasty, and the Sichuan Admiral Kang Tai was ordered to lead his troops out of Guanding to quell the war, but due to the sudden changes in the military camp, Kang Tai could only bring his troops back to Guanguan.
Nian Qianyao discovered that the Qing army mutiny was due to Kang Tai's lack of management, and it was difficult for him to take on the heavy responsibility of calming the war, so Nian Qianyao asked Xuan Ye to personally lead the army on the expedition, and Xuan Ye admired Nian Qianyao's bravery, and out of trust in him, not only agreed to Nian Qianyao's request, but also promoted him to the governor of Sichuan.
In the ensuing conquest, Nian Qianyao demonstrated outstanding military talent, and under his leadership, the Qing army was invincible, and Tibet was completely stable in just 4 years.
Nian Qianyao's outstanding military achievements were also rewarded, and when he entered the capital to report for duty, Xuan Ye immediately made him the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, and Nian Qianyao's power was at its peak, and he became a major vassal of Xi'an.

Just as Nian Tangyao was in the middle of the day, the struggle for the crown prince in the palace gradually arose, and as Xuan Ye deposed the crown prince twice, all the princes in the palace coveted the position of the prince.
Yin Chan was originally a princeling, and after Yin Rong was deposed as crown prince for the first time, Yin Chan continued to support the restoration of him as crown prince, but Yin Rong did not have the consciousness of a crown prince, and when he was re-established as a prince, he did some extreme things to consolidate his position as crown prince.
These acts were seen by Xuan Ye, and he felt very dissatisfied, so he abolished Yin Rong, and there were still courtiers who vigorously supported the restoration of Yin Rong, and they were all punished by Xuan Ye one by one.
Yin Chan saw that the emperor was extremely disappointed in Yin Rong, so he planned to seize the position of prince, but he did not like to behave like other princes, exposing his desire to become a prince.
The Eighth Prince's fanaticism for the Crown Prince immediately after Yin Rong's depose, and he was active in this regard, which was the most dissatisfied of Xuan Ye, and the Eighth Prince was severely reprimanded by Xuan Ye as soon as he showed such signs.
The other princes also showed varying degrees of enthusiasm, but Yin Chan always kept a low profile, he knew that although he had followed his father to conquest Kaldan and inspected the progress of many projects, his merits were always inferior to those of the fourteen princes, the fourteen princes went to the northwest and made great contributions to the pacification of the war in Tibet, and the fourteen princes had the greatest merits among the princes, and he was most likely to be made crown prince.
Yin Chan gradually established a plan in his heart to plot against the crown prince, and it was natural that he could not seize the throne by himself, so he began to cultivate obscurity, ostensibly maintaining harmony with all the princes, and showing respect and filial piety to his father, Yin Chan's behavior made other brothers and fathers trust him very much, and the other princes did not regard him as a competitive object for the crown prince.
Secretly, Yin Chan set his sights on Nian Qianyao, who was in the limelight, he secretly wooed Nian Qianyao, hoping that he could support himself, Nian Qianyao also admired Yin Chan's steadiness, he felt that Yin Chan had the potential to become the crown prince, so he bet on Yin Chan, and in order to show his loyalty and trust in Yin Chan, Nian Tang Yao also gave his own sister Xu to Yin Chan as a side Fujin.
At the same time, Yin Chan also tried his best to win over the important minister Long Keduo, with the support of these two important ministers, and through his repeated efforts to investigate the people's feelings in various places, offer advice and suggestions, and create political achievements many times, Yin Chan finally won Xuan Ye's favor and became the next emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
After Yin Chan ascended the throne, Long Keduo controlled the situation in the capital for him, Nian Qianyao and the fourteenth prince stabilized the situation in the northwest for him, and Yin Chan began to gradually consolidate the throne.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="8" > the consequences of the high cover</h1>
Yin Chan had always been suspicious, although he relied on Long Keduo and Nian Qianyao to seize the throne, but he was also afraid that the two would threaten him, both of their positions were at heights that the courtiers should not reach, and Nian Qianyao's military merits and even high achievements shocked the lord, which made Yin Chan very vigilant.
Within a year of Yin Chan's ascension to the throne, he cleaned up almost all the brothers who had participated in the conquest, and they were all punished and demoted by Yin Chan, and then they were banned one by one, and some were even forced to change their names and no longer recognized as relatives of the imperial family.
Just when Yin Chan was about to take care of the last fourteen princes, the problem of Nian Qianyao began to appear, and when Yin Chan had just taken the throne, there were enemies attacking again in the southwestern frontier, and Yin Chan entrusted the task of quelling the war to Nian Qianyao, and the military power in the western region of the Qing Dynasty was all controlled by Nian Qianyao, and Nian Qianyao's power reached a new peak.
Soon after, Nian Qianyao easily crushed the enemy, and his prestige shook the western realm and the court, and as Yin Chan's favorite courtier, Nian Qianyao's exploits greatly consolidated Yin Chan's throne.
However, such merits also made Nian Qianyao begin to look at no one, and when the leaders of the southwest saw Nian Qianyao, they actually performed the kneeling salute of the monarch to him, and when Nian Qianyao entered the capital to report for duty, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty hall all respected Nian Qianyao, and even some nobles and officials knelt down to Nian Qianyao.
Not only did Nian Qianyao not feel wrong, he was also full of vigor in front of the emperor, and he was calm about the great courtesy of these officials, and felt that this was a matter of course.
Although Nian Qianyao had no intention of rebellion, his pride and conflict with the emperor were all seen by Yin Chan, and Yin Chan's heart was filled with fear and gradually raised his killing intent.
Because Nian Qianyao was in a position of great power, in the places under his jurisdiction, he could make personnel arrangements at will without asking the emperor for instructions, which was out of the emperor's trust in him, but Nian Qianyao not only did not restrain himself, but arbitrarily installed cronies in various important positions, and often engaged in corrupt and corrupt things, and selling officials and knights was sparse and common for him.
This series of acts caused Yin Chan's trust in Nian Qianyao to begin to collapse, and in the third year of Yin Chan's reign, he began to gradually reclaim Nian Qianyao's power, and the court officials knew that this was the beginning of Nian Qianyao's loss of power, so the wall fell and everyone pushed, and some people in the imperial court continued to impeach Nian Qianyao, counting all his crimes.
In the end, Nian Qianyao was given death by Yin Chan, and in order to cut the grass and remove the roots, Yin Chan removed Nian Qianyao's cronies and exiled all his heirs who had reached the age of 15.
Nian Qianyao had many concubines during his lifetime, and by the time of his death, he had a total of 80 wives and concubines, and Yin Chan, in order to eliminate the troubles forever, also reduced these women to slavery and exiled them to the frontier.
In ancient times, frontier lands were unexplored areas, full of wolves, insects, tigers and leopards, and exile on the frontier was another kind of death penalty, not to mention that the exiles were all vulnerable women, and their ends could be imagined.
Nian Qianyao did not expect that he and Yin Chan were not mutual achievements, but Yin Chan crossed the river and demolished the bridge, but half of his death was because he did not keep the way of his subjects, and at the moment when he became accustomed to the kneeling of others, his end was already predestined.
