Yongzheng defended himself against his ten major crimes, including his father, forcing his mother, killing his brother, slaughtering his brother, greedy for money, good killing, drunkenness, **, good advice, and Ren Yu, and promulgated the world. However, it backfired, and he wanted to cover it up, but he was self-defeating and darkened, leaving a vivid and tortuous story. So what are the facts, and is Yongzheng's crime true?

There is a rumor that Emperor Kangxi was poisoned after drinking the ginseng soup sent by Yinzhen. However, from the perspective of ethics, legal principles, and reasonableness, this statement is neither contrary to feelings nor reasonable, and from the analysis of the specific environment and surrounding conditions at that time, it is absolutely impossible to go against historical facts.

At that time, the saying that Yongzheng forced his mother was widely spread. Yongzheng's biological mother Wu Yashi had three sons, Yinzhen - Yongzheng, Yinzuo died at the age of five, and Yinzhen - fourteenth elder brother.

Legend has it that after Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, he transferred his younger brother Yinzhen back to Beijing and imprisoned him, his mother wanted to see Yinzhen, Yongzheng was not allowed, and the queen mother was angry and died on the iron pillar. Seeing that his own son Yinzhen was imprisoned by Yongzheng, how could Wu Yashi not be chilled as a mother? So some people associated the death of Yongzheng's mother with the fact that Yongzheng imprisoned his brother.

On the day Yongzheng inherited the throne, he faced the dissatisfaction and challenges of his brothers. The bad news of Kangxi's death came out, and the nine gates of the capital were closed for six days, and the kings were not allowed to enter the inner city unless they had an order. The arrow is on the line, and the situation is tense.

At that time, there were fifteen princes who were over 20 years old, namely Yongzheng's eldest brother Yinzhen, second brother Yinren, third brother Yinzhi, fifth brother Yinqi, seventh brother Yinyou, eighth brother Yinci, ninth brother Yinyu, tenth brother Yinoh, twelfth brother Yinzhen, thirteenth brother Yinxiang, fourteenth brother Yinzhen, fifteenth brother Yinzhen, sixteenth brother Yinlu and seventeenth brother Yinli.

The eldest brother Yinyu, who offended the royal father in the abolition of the crown prince, was deprived of the title and imprisoned in the mansion. Kangxi sent Baylor to extend his life and others to take turns to guard, and strictly ordered those who neglected to be punished, and Yinhe became a dead tiger who did not see the light of day. Yongzheng died in the twelfth year and was buried with Beizi ceremony.

The second elder brother abolished the crown prince Yinren and was imprisoned in Xian'an Palace. But Yongzheng was still not at ease, on the one hand, he was named the king of Lijun, and on the other hand, he ordered to build a house in Zhengjiazhuang, Qi County, Shanxi Province, and stationed Yinren in solitary confinement. In the second year of Yongzheng, Yinren died.

The third elder brother Yinzhi was not very enthusiastic about the crown prince, and he was dedicated to compiling books, but he was also implicated. After Yongzheng ascended the throne, he ordered Yinzhi to guard Jingling on the grounds that Yinzhi was friendly with the prince, and sent it to Zunhua to guard the tomb of Kangxi. Yinzhi was unhappy in his heart, so he inevitably complained in private. After Yongzheng found out, he simply took Yinzhi and imprisoned him in Jingshan Yong'an Pavilion. In the tenth year of Yongzheng, Yinzhi died.

The fifth brother Yinqi, when Kangxi personally conquered Galdan, once led the Zhenghuang Banner battalion, and was later named Prince Heng. But Yinqi himself did not form a party, nor did he fight for the reserve. After Yongzheng ascended the throne, he took this opportunity to cut off his title. In the tenth year of Yongzheng, Yinqi died.

The sixth brother Yinzuo, born in the nineteenth year of Kangxi, died in the twenty-fourth year of Kangxi at the age of five.

The seventh brother Yinyou, born in the nineteenth year of Kangxi. Kangxi praised him: "He has a good heart and amiable manners." "When Kangxi personally conquered Geerdan, he ordered Yinyou to lead the camp with yellow flags. At the age of eighteen, he was named Baylor, and at the age of twenty-nine, he was named the king of Jinchun. Yongzheng eight years, died.

The eighth brother Yinci is the best and most talented one among the Yongzheng brothers. After Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, he regarded Yinci and his henchmen as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, so he played a two-faced trick, first named Yinci as the prince, and his Fujin asked the people who came to congratulate: "Why congratulations?" This word spread to Yongzheng, and ordered Yinci Fujin to be driven back to his mother's house, and soon ordered Yinci to kneel in front of the temple for a day and night.

After that, he ordered to cut off the prince of Yinxi, enclose him with high walls, and change his name to Aqina. The word Aqina has different interpretations, and in the past, it was mostly thought that it meant pig, and it was also interpreted as shameless. Yinci was imprisoned for many years, tortured, and finally killed.

The ninth brother Yinyu, because of his alliance with Yinxi, is also intolerable to Yongzheng. Yinyu understood in his heart and said privately: "I will become a monk." But how could Yongzheng allow him to be let go by becoming a monk? So he used the excuse to remove Yinyuge's yellow belt, cut off his clan registration, arrest and imprison him, and changed Yinyu's name to Seth Hei.

In the past, the word Seth Black was mostly thought to mean dog, and it was also interpreted as shameless. Soon after, he convicted Yinyu of 28 charges, sent him to Baoding, locked him, and ordered Li Fu, the governor of Zhili, to imprison him. Yinyu was tortured in Baoding Prison and died of abdominal disease in a secluded place, which is said to have been poisoned.

The tenth brother Yin, because the party is attached to Yin, is hated by Yongzheng. In the first year of Yongzheng, Jebzundan Bahutuktu came to Beijing and died, sent the shrine back to Khalkha, and ordered Yin'o to give the seal. Yin Oh said that he was sick and could not do it, and ordered him to live in Zhangjiakou, and in the same year, he was deprived of his title and arrested and detained in Beijing. He was not released until the second year of Qianlong, and then died.

The eleventh brother Yinyu, born in the twenty-fourth year of Kangxi, and his mother Yifei Guo Luoluo, died in the thirty-fifth year of Kangxi.

The twelfth brother Yinyi, in the last years of Kangxi, served as the commander of Manchuria with the Yellow Flag, and was very important and powerful, but he did not form a party to seek a position. When Yongzheng first ascended the throne, Feng Yinyi was the king of the county, and soon he was demoted to Gushan Beizi, that is, from the king of the county to Beizi lower than Beile, and he did not give the real lord, only enjoyed the treatment of Beizi. Later, he was demoted to the rank of Zhenguo Gong. After Qianlong ascended the throne, he was promoted to the title of Prince of Fulfillment, and this Yinyi was more powerful than other brothers, and lived until the twenty-eighth year of Qianlong, at the age of seventy-eight.

The thirteenth brother Yinxiang, born in the twenty-fifth year of Kangxi. In the sixty-first year of Kangxi, Yongzheng ascended the throne, was named Prince Yi, and ordered the prime minister to be the third treasury. In the first year of Yongzheng, he was named the prime minister's household department, and he was respectful and honest. He did his best to Yongzheng, and he was cautious and loyal to the prime minister's affairs, which was appreciated by Yongzheng. In the third year of Yongzheng, he was re-appointed as the king of the county, and the king was appointed to the middle finger of the princes, and the prime minister of Gyeonggi Water Conservancy, with many achievements, and handled the military aircraft of the Northwest Road. Yongzheng died in the eighth year, and he was Yongzheng's most intimate brother and the brother who helped him the most.

The fourteenth brother Yinzhen, although he is the same mother as Yongzheng, but because his party is the same as Yinzhen, and it is rumored that Kangxi ordered Yinzhen to pass on the throne before his death, and Yongzheng's party tampered with Yinzhen, so the two became brothers who did not share the sky. Yongzheng ascended the throne, first did not allow the Fuyuan general Yinzhen to enter the city to mourn, and then ordered him to guard the emperor's father's Jingling in Zunhua, and then imprisoned his father and son in the Jingshan Shouhuang Palace. After Qianlong succeeded to the throne, he was released.

The fifteenth brother Yinyu, after the death of Kangxi, Yongzheng ordered him to guard Jingling. There are three people in a better situation, the thirteenth brother Yinxiang, the sixteenth brother Yinlu and the seventeenth brother Yinli. Yinxiang was once imprisoned by Kangxi, the reason is unknown, Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, that is, Yinxiang was named Prince Yi, especially credited; Yinlu, succeeded to Prince Zhuang Bo Guoduo, and then attacked the Prince Zhuang; Yinli, Yongzheng succeeded to the throne as the king of Guojun, and then promoted to the prince, first in charge of the management of the affairs of the domain, and then as the Zongren Mansion Sect Order, in charge of the household department. Yinxiang and Yinli obviously joined the Yinzhen Party early, but when Kangxi was alive, they were very secretive and did not shine.

Many years later, when Yongzheng looked back on his childhood, he recalled the bright white gauze palace lamp in the dark. Since the twentieth year of Kangxi, every day at three o'clock in the morning, he will be called up by his subordinates, and together with many princes, he will walk through the Forbidden City with sleepiness. Kangxi created the strictest and most aristocratic princely learning system, which was the strictest and most cautious learning environment that no other country in the world could do at that time.

Insist on studying, the princes are the first group of people to wake up in the Purple City. These days, the golden and jade bodies of the family are probably the first group of people to wake up in the sleeping Forbidden City. At four o'clock in the morning every day, Yinzhen and the princes went to Wuyi Zhai and began to learn and practice, reviewing the homework of the previous day. These princes and grandsons began to study in the upper study at the age of five, Kangxi personally selected masters for the princes among the elites of the empire, and the Han masters had Zhang Ying, Xiong Cixu, Li Guangdi, Xu Yuanmeng, Tang Bin and other famous Confucians, and Manchu masters taught Manchu and Mongolian, as well as bow and arrow, horse and archery skills.

Every morning at five o'clock, the teacher comes to class. The Manchu master Dahata and the Chinese master Tang Bin waited until they arrived in the Shang study, first bowed to the crown prince with courtesy, and then checked the princes' homework with the teacher's courtesy, so that the prince could endorse the book, and the prince recited it aloud, which was good. The master then marked out a new paragraph for the children to recite for the princes.

Sometimes Kangxi hurried to Wuyizhai after the court, and the princes went to the outside of the Zhai to meet their father. After Kangxi came, he sat down, and often asked his son to endorse the book, and Kangxi took out the book and ordered a random paragraph. Kangxi would kindly tell the princes that when he was a child, he would recite the book 120 times, and then he would recite it 120 times, and then he would be completely proficient, and then change to the next paragraph, and learn it paragraph by paragraph. This kind of learning begins at the age of four, and is not interrupted for a single day, regardless of the cold or heat. Sometimes he was so tired that he coughed up blood, but he still kept studying.

It wasn't until one o'clock at noon that the princes began to practice calligraphy. When the prince reads and writes, he must sit upright, and write each word a hundred times. Lunch time didn't disrupt the tense pace of studying. The guards brought the meal, the teacher knelt down to take the meal and went to eat, and the princes ate on the other side, and after eating, they did not rest, and continued to bury their heads in their homework. Although the princes studied hard in the palace, no one dared to praise them inside and outside the study and in the palace.

Kangxi issued a stern edict: "If anyone praises him, I will dismiss him." ”

These princes of Manchurian descent still retained the Northeast habit of liking coolness, but at this time they were not allowed to hold fans. This level of hard work is unbearable even for the masters Dahata, Tang Bin and Geng Jie. Because of the heat of old age, getting up too early in the morning, and standing for too long, these old Confucians would often be physically exhausted, leaning on the bookcase and unconsciously napping, sometimes almost falling. Many years later, Yinzhen developed an extreme fear of heat, so much so that most of the time after he succeeded to the throne would be spent in the cool Old Summer Palace.

Among these great Confucian masters, the greatest influence on Yinzhen was not Xiong Cixu and other famous Confucians, but Gu Badai, a scholar with a low academic status. This descendant of the Manchurian Yellow Banner Honorable Minister, once served as the official secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he was upright, honest and honest, and he has been living a very poor life since he retired, and his family did not even have money for funerals after his death. After Yinzhen heard this message, he personally took care of the master's funeral as a student, and buried the master at his own expense. As Yinzhen's enlightenment teacher, Gu Badai's words of science fell second, and his honest and mellow personality became a perfect example for Yinzhen.

From one o'clock in the afternoon, it is the outdoor time that these Manchurian princes enjoy. There was a shooting range in the courtyard outside Wuyizhai, where the princes could shoot arrows, ride horses, and practice martial arts. At dusk, Kangxi would often go back to Wuyizhai to check his homework, and he would first ask these princes to endorse them, and recite them one by one. Follow him to check the princes' archery, he first let the princes shoot one by one, let several masters follow to shoot, and finally he will always go down in person, and the arrows in the continuous fire will deepen the princes' worship of their father.

In Yinzhen's young heart, the imperial father Kangxi is an all-knowing and all-powerful person who surpasses all masters, and is the idol in the hearts of all princes. Yinzhen will always remember the clairvoyant instrument that Kangxi gave him to watch the eclipse. Once when the solar eclipse was four or five minutes, Kangxi asked him to observe the whole process of the eclipse. At that time, the thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang was crowded in the crowd, and because of his young age and short stature, he could hardly see his father passing by in the crowd. In order to show his filial piety and admiration for his father, he couldn't help but lie on the footprints that his father had just left and smell vigorously.
