Cao Cao: No, I'm not worthy!

Zhu Di: In terms of lust, Emperor Kangxi is indeed a step higher.

Qin Shi Huang: This should not be the main reason, there should be something more outrageous.

"Yes, this is not the main reason, in fact, Emperor Kangxi died of a sudden illness, saying that he died of excessive indulgence, which is my conjecture and later generations, but Kangxi suddenly fell ill and died in Changchun Garden, I just imagined that I made a mess, don't think too much, we only recorded that Kangxi died of illness in later generations."

Li Longji: Died in Changchun Garden? Is this overindulgence and the body is not working?

Kangxi: Ahem! It's possible!

Zhao Gou: Emperor Kangxi, you think so yourself! Ha ha!

"I don't know about the death of Emperor Kangxi, so I won't talk about it, let's talk about the reason why the real Emperor Kangxi was mediocre in his later years."

"First, the battle for the throne, Kowloon will seize the throne."

"Very similar to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in his later years, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had a witch curse in his later years, and in the later years of Emperor Kangxi, there were also many events, which directly made the impression of Emperor Kangxi drop a notch in people's hearts."

"Not only Emperor Kangxi, but many emperors in history have shown mediocrity in their later years."

"For example, Qin Shi Huang, in his later years, Qin Shi Huang's pursuit of immortality led to the absence of a prince, and in the end, many princes were killed by Qin II Hu Hai."

"The most familiar thing about Emperor Kangxi is that there were nine sons seizing the heir, no matter which dynasty in history, almost the eldest son is the crown prince, but the rules of the Qing Dynasty are not like this, in the later years of Emperor Kangxi, the prince was deposed twice, in this case, it directly led to other princes eyeing the throne."

"At the same time, it directly led to the beginning of the nine sons of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Kangxi's abolition of the prince is by no means a good performance, after the abolition of the prince, Emperor Kangxi did not immediately set up a prince, as a result, every prince began to move, and as a result, the princes killed each other, and Emperor Kangxi saw his own flesh and blood."

"In my eyes, this can't be completely blamed on Emperor Kangxi, the succession of the dynasty has always been a big problem, and historically, it can be said that this is a difficult problem to solve."

"Emperor Kangxi himself has been on the throne for decades, and in order to maintain the balance of power, he will inevitably support the rest of the princes, thus suppressing the crown prince, which has led to fratricidal brothers, and even after the emperor succeeds to the throne, he is still affected by it."

Li Shimin: This problem is indeed in that dynasty, and I am no exception, and I can generally know what the situation is.

Qin Shi Huang: Nine princes have taken over the throne, this should directly affect a country!

"Since the establishment of the Qing Dynasty to the entry of Shunzhi, there has been no talk of appointing a prince during the old emperor's lifetime. This led to the fact that every time the old and new thrones alternated, there would be a situation of fratricide. ”

At that time, Emperor Kangxi had 24 sons, and 9 of them participated in the struggle for the throne. The nine sons are: the eldest brother Aixin Jueluo Yinzhen, the second elder brother Yinren, the third elder brother Yinzhi, the fourth elder brother Yinzhen, the eighth elder brother Yinzhen, the ninth elder brother Yinyu, the tenth elder brother Yinxiang, the thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang and the fourteenth elder brother Yinyu. In the end, the fourth elder brother Yinzhen won and inherited the throne after the death of Emperor Kangxi and became Emperor Yongzheng. ”

"Emperor Kangxi made Yinren the crown prince after the queen gave birth to Yinren."

"In the fifteenth year of Kangxi, Kangxi established the second elder brother Yinren as the crown prince (2 years old), and since then the crown prince has become arrogant and arrogant and has formed a party for personal gain."

"In the forty-second year of Kangxi, Kangxi killed Suo Etu, and the relationship between father and son tended to be tense."

"However, because Emperor Kangxi has been in power for too long, this has led to frequent contradictions between Yinren and Kangxi, and for this reason, Kangxi has twice abolished Yinren's position as the crown prince." ”

In the forty-seventh year of Kangxi, in the Burhasu Palace in the Mulan Enclosure, Emperor Kangxi announced the abolition of the crown prince on the grounds that the crown prince Yinren "did not follow the law, did not follow the precepts, but wantonly abused the public, and was violent and fornicated", and then many elder brothers began to covet the throne. ”

"The crown prince was abolished, and Kangxi did not immediately announce the establishment of a new prince, which led to Kangxi's other sons peeping into the prince's position."

"In addition, nine of Kangxi's sons are relatively good candidates, and they all feel that they may be candidates for the crown prince."

"The eldest brother Yinren is the eldest son, he has never been liked by Kangxi, and he knows that he is hopeless, so he proposed to Kangxi that the eighth elder brother Yinren will be very expensive because "the warlock Zhang Mingde will be very expensive if he tastes Yinren", and said that he would kill Yinren for his father, which made Kangxi extremely chilled and severely reprimanded, and at the same time strictly guarded against Yinren. ”

"Yinzhi was raised by the eldest brother's mother Concubine Hui when he was a child, so the eldest brother had a good relationship with him, and at this time, the third elder brother Yinzhi exposed the eldest brother for harming Yinren in the town, and Kangxi imprisoned the eldest brother."

"This has led to an open and secret fight between their brothers, and the brothers have begun to fight each other."

"Kangxi was disgusted with Yinren for colluding with Yinren, and also imprisoned him, and later released, and Kangxi restored his status as the prince of Yinren in March of the 48th year."

"At the end of the 50th year of Kangxi, the defendant prince formed a party with Qi Shiwu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Tuo Heqi, the commander of the infantry army, and Geng E, the secretary of the Ministry of War."

"Kangxi issued an edict again in September 51 to abolish the prince, and since then the abolished prince has been imprisoned until death, and the third elder brother Yinzhi saw this chaos and took the initiative to withdraw from the competition."

"After Yinren was abolished again, the eighth elder brother Yinyu turned to support the fourteenth elder brother Yinyu (the fourth elder brother has the same mother), the ninth elder brother Yinyu, and the tenth elder brother Yinyu vassal the eighth elder brother Yinyu."

"The thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang is a vassal of the fourth elder brother Yinzhen, Yinzhen dared to say good things for Yinren after the prince was deposed for the first time, and he belonged to the princelings."

"After Yinren was abolished for the second time, Yinzhen saw that Yinren had no possibility of re-establishment, so he began to form a party for personal gain and peep into the storage position."

"At this time, two major forces were formed: the Four Masters Party headed by Yinzhen and the Eight Masters Party headed by Yinzhen."

"In the sixty-first year of Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi died of illness in Changchun Garden, when the fourteenth elder brother Yinzhen supported by the Eight Masters Party was far away in the northwest, and the fourth elder brother Yinzhen stayed in Beijing."

"Kangxi's close ministers and infantry commanders - Long Keduo announced that Kangxi's will Xuan Yinzhen inherited the throne for Emperor Yongzheng, and the nine sons won the throne with Yongzheng."

However, after Kangxi died and Yongzheng ascended the throne, he began to kill his brother. ”

"The reason why there is such a cannibalistic status quo is related to Kangxi's hesitation to abolish the crown prince."

"After Yongzheng ascended the throne, in order to prevent the tragedy of fighting for the throne between brothers, the secret reserve system was implemented from then on, and the crown prince was no longer openly established, and the emperor wrote an edict and placed it in the Qianqing Palace after the bright plaque, until the emperor died and the descendants could open and announce the heir."
