Speaking of the important ministers of the Qianlong Dynasty, we have always relished the three major halls - He Yan, Ji Xiaolan, Liu Yong, whether it is folk history, or film and television drama works, there are TV dramas that have been passed down separately for these three people, of which for He yan we know that he can be described as the first favorite of the Qianlong Dynasty, one person is above ten thousand people. But in fact, in the Qianlong Dynasty, there was another person who was more favored than He yan, who was the illegitimate son of the legendary Qianlong, and the only foreign surname of the Qing Dynasty who was enthroned in his lifetime - FuKang'an.
"The family swallow saw the heavy pepper room, and the dragon species fell below for no reason. Dan Xianji once sealed the shell, and the Thousand Autumn Doubtful Case Fu Wen Nang" - "The Great View of the Wild History of the Qing Dynasty"
In the recent hit "Yanxi Raiders", Erqing once took advantage of Qianlong's drunkenness to have a relationship with him, and then married Fu cha Fu Heng. In fact, in the real history, Fu Heng's Fujin was known as the first beauty of the Qing Dynasty, and was also the biological mother of Fu Kang'an.
Of course, although the Guarjia clan was Fu Heng's Fujin, and Fu Heng, as Qianlong's brother-in-law, empress Fucha's brother-in-law, was an extremely popular subject, the Guarjia clan still had no contact with Qianlong according to the ancestral precepts, and naturally there was no chance of becoming Qianlong's illegitimate son. So the question is, how did this rumor become popular? In fact, this matter has to start from the Battle of Qingmian in Qianlong in 1766.
In 1766, the Qing Dynasty and Burma were at odds over the border issues in Yunnan, and the Qing-Burma War broke out on a large scale. Because Burma at that time was equipped with the most advanced flintlock guns in the West, the War of the Qing Dynasty on this side was extremely unfavorable, but no one thought that this seemingly disparity in strength had become the eternal nightmare of the "Fucha Family". After the defeat of two governors of Yunnan, Fu Heng's nephew Fucha Mingrui parachuted into Yunnan and became the commander-in-chief, but did not want to be besieged by the Burmese legions, and finally committed suicide and martyrdom in the exhaustion of the mountains and rivers.
The nephew sacrificed his life for the country, and Fu Heng, as an uncle, decided to personally take command, leading his eldest son Fu Ling'an and the 50,000 elites of the Qing Dynasty and qianlong's entrustment to Yunnan. Although the Burmese army was no longer able to resist under the heavy pressure of the Qing army, Fu Heng, the northerners, had never seen such a serious humidity in the south, especially the stuffy tail from September to November, not only the eldest son Fu Ling'an and many generals were poisoned and killed, but even Fu Heng himself was sick and bedridden. In 1769, Burma finally surrendered and negotiated peace with the Qing Dynasty, but Fu Heng died of a worsening illness in July of the following year, at the age of 50.
The Fucha clan has been a Manchu Qing dynasty minister for a hundred years from nurhaci resistance to the Ming Dynasty, and has made great contributions to the establishment and management of the Qing Dynasty. The first empress of Qianlong was also Fu Heng's sister, and the two greatest achievements of the Qianlong Dynasty in pacifying Jinchuan and Pingding Dzungar were all assisted by Fu Heng, so Qianlong was extremely guilty of Fu Heng's death and what Fu Cha suffered in the Battle of Qing and Burma.
At this time, Fu Heng's third son, Fu Kang'an, was only 16 years old, and his fourth son, Fu Chang'an, was only 10 years old. And these two children had always been raised by Qianlong in the palace, so there was the promise that Qianlong had made to Fu Heng:
"Ruzi Wu'er Dingjiao Training"
It was Qianlong who appeared the word "Wu'er" here, so much so that people thought that Qianlong was revealing that Fu Kang'an was his son, but in fact Qianlong said to the dead Fu Heng that he would treat his son like his own son.
Of course, some people will say why Fu Kang'an was able to hold such a transcendent position in the Qianlong Dynasty, a lifetime of glory and wealth, an official to the WuyingDian University scholar and military minister, before his death, he was awarded the title of Jiayong Zhongrui Duke, Beizi, and after his death, he was posthumously awarded the title of King of Jiayong County, and deserved to enjoy the Taimiao Temple? Isn't it Qianlong's favor?
In fact, this is a complete disregard for Fu Kang'an's merits, not to mention that his father Fu Heng reached the peak of honor of the Qing Dynasty's heavy ministers because of his outstanding military achievements before his death, and Fu Kang'an perfectly explained what is called a tiger father without a dog. In 1771 AD, the great and small Jinchuan rebellion re-emerged, Fukang An was ordered to assist the general Ah Gui, and personally led the army to fight, until 1776 the war was settled, Fu Kang An was ranked as one of the top fifty meritorious men, rewarded with the Jia Yong Batulu, his eyes glazed, and he was promoted to the left attendant of the Household Department.
After that, Fu Kang'an successively served as the governor of Yungui and the governor of Sichuan, and other feudal officials, all of whom had good political achievements. In 1784, when the Gansu Rebellion broke out, Fu Kang'an was again transferred to the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, and went to Zhenjing with the Qianlong Dynasty general Ah Gui, and asked Qianlong to "teach the Hui people" strategy to avoid future troubles. Therefore, by 1785, Fu Kang'an had been promoted to the rank of official Shangshu and assistant university scholar, and at this time he had just passed the age of establishment.
Obviously, it can be seen that unlike the grace of a courtier like Hezhen, all the credits of Fu Kang'an are accumulated by him on the front line, and every merit reward has a battle merit.
Then came the Lin Shuangwen Uprising in Taiwan in 1786, Fu Kang'an finally suppressed the uprising and captured Lin Shuangwen after two years of fierce fighting, and his merits had reached the point where the Qing court gave the Taiwan County City Jiansheng Ancestral Hall, and the Purple Light Pavilion was painted, and the scenery was unique for a while. Two years later, when the Gurkhas invaded Tibet, Fukang'an took command again and traveled 4,600 miles in three months, walking more than 60 days from Beijing to Lhasa. After that, it took only half a month to quell the war, maintain the unity of the Qing Dynasty's frontier and the tranquility of Tibet, and was awarded the title of Wuyingdian University Scholar, The Duke of Zhongrui Jiayong, and a very popular subject.
However, Fukang An rongma's life and countless military achievements eventually followed in the footsteps of his father Fu Heng. In 1795, the Miao King Wu Rebellion broke out in August, and fu kang'an, the governor of Yungui, continued to be in command, accompanied by hezhen's younger brother, the governor of Sichuan, Helin, and the governor of Huguang, Fu Ning. It was also this war that caused Fu Kang'an and Lynn to fall ill in the army due to the humid and hot weather in the south, and both died.
As a military general whose merits were enough to rank in the top ten in the Qianlong Dynasty, Fu Kang'an's life of fighting horses and horses hardly stopped, and he was also the son who most resembled his father Fu Heng, and finally became an extremely popular subject with his own merits. However, there are also rumors that the reason why Qianlong favored Kang'an was because Fukang'an was very similar to his own death of Duanhui Prince Yonglian and Seventh Brother Yongzong, that is, the two sons of Empress Fucha, the so-called Aiwu and Wuba.
