Qianlong was the longest-lived emperor in ancient my country. He lived for 89 years, of which he served as emperor for 60 years and as the supreme emperor for 3 years. Qianlong was still a romantic emperor. He married about 40 concubines, including 3 empresses, 5 imperial concubines, 5 imperial concubines, 6 concubines, 6 concubines, 12 nobles, 4 permanent concubines, and many girls. Sex, history has not recorded it, such as "Xia Yuhe by Daming Lake".
Qianlong’s more than 40 concubines gave birth to 27 children, including 17 princes and 10 princesses. The youngest prince of Qianlong was the Seventeenth Prince Yonglin , born in 1766. Wei Jia's When Qianlong gave birth to Yonglin, Qianlong was already 55 years old. In the following ten years, Qianlong's other concubines did not give birth to any more children for him. In 1775, Qianlong's concubine Dun gave birth to another daughter for Qianlong.
This daughter is the famous ten princesses . At this time, Qianlong was 65 years old. He was very happy to have a daughter in old age. The youngest of Qianlong's other children was already 10 years old, so Qianlong put all his love on the newly born little princess.
According to Qing Dynasty rules, only the legitimate daughter born to the queen can be named Princess Gu Lun , and other princesses can only be named Princess Heshuo . The tenth princess was the daughter of a concubine and could only be named Princess Heshuo, but Qianlong favored her and named her Princess Gulun. In love with Wu, Qianlong named the tenth princess's biological mother, Dun Concubine, as Dunfei . After her daughter was favored, Concubine Dun also became powerful in the harem.
Concubine Dun was originally a concubine with a very low status. She could only swallow her humiliation and compromise when things happened. However, after having her daughter, the tenth princess, she said that "the mother is more important than the daughter." It can make her lose her temper and punish her servants. Because Concubine Dun was too young and did things lightly, she once beat a little maid in her palace to death while punishing her maids.
When Qianlong learned about this, he was very angry and demoted Concubine Dun to concubine Dun. Qianlong felt that such a poisonous scorpion woman could not be allowed to raise and educate his lovely daughter, so he deprived Concubine Dun of the right to raise the ten princesses and gave the ten princesses to Concubine Rong to raise. After arriving at Concubine Rong's house, the tenth princess refused to eat or drink and cried for her mother. Qianlong felt sorry for his daughter and sent the tenth princess to Concubine Dun. Because of his daughter, Qianlong exempted Concubine Dun from the punishment and restored her status in the harem. After experiencing this incident, Concubine Dun restrained herself a lot.
Qianlong loved the tenth princess very much. At the same time, the tenth princess is the youngest child in the family, at least 10 years younger than her brothers and sisters, so the brothers and sisters also love the tenth princess very much. For example, Jiaqing, who will be the emperor in the future, loves the tenth princess very much. The tenth princess has lived in a honey-like environment since she was a child, living a carefree and happy life. When she grew up, the tenth princess had a strong figure and a cheerful and generous personality. She also liked to wear men's clothes and go hunting with her father and brothers. The tenth princess is as good at riding and shooting as her brothers.
Qianlong once said with emotion that if the tenth princess were a boy, he would pass the throne to the tenth princess. Unable to give his best fortune to the tenth princess, Qianlong decided to choose a suitable husband for the tenth princess so that the tenth princess could have a happy ending. The good husband chosen by Qianlong for the tenth princess was the only son of He Shen, Fengshen and Yin De. He Shen is an important minister in the court. He holds more than ten important positions such as the foreman of military aircraft, the minister of internal bodyguards, the bachelor of Wenhua Palace , the minister of household affairs, and the minister of official affairs. His son is a gentry and a man of virtue, and he is also talented and beautiful. .
Fengshen Yinde is a very outstanding young talent. After he married the tenth princess, the two were very loving and often went hunting together. During the Qianlong period, Heshen was his first favorite. Fengshen Yinde was also rewarded by Qianlong with a red velvet knotted top, peacock feathers in his eyes, and a gold-threaded flower gown. He was promoted to the commander of the Zhenghuang Banner Guards and the Minister of Internal Affairs. , and is the commander-in-chief of the Han army under the White Banner, the future is bright and limitless.
In the feudal period, the imperial power was supreme. He could give you any fame and fortune, and he could also take them away in an instant.
Heshen is one of the biggest corrupt officials in the history of our country. He took advantage of his position to form parties for personal gain, amass money, attack political opponents, and accumulated a lot of money. However, for an official of Heshen's level, corruption and perversion of the law are not the most fatal. , the most fatal thing is that he offended Prince Jiaqing. During the Qianlong period, He Shen often helped Qianlong suppress Prince Jiaqing. At the same time, He Shen also tried to bring down Jiaqing.
When Jiaqing was the crown prince, Qianlong summoned Jiaqing's teacher Zhu Gui to return to Beijing to become a bachelor. Jiaqing was very happy and wrote a congratulatory letter to the teacher. Jiaqing's letter linked Zhu Gui to his father and said that the court was waiting for him to take up important positions. After Heshen got it, he ran to complain to Qianlong, saying that the relationship between Zhu Gui and the prince was abnormal, and that he wanted the prince to write a poem to praise him, which was very ambitious. The close exchanges between Jiaqing and important ministers aroused Qianlong's sensitive nerves. In the end, Zhu Gui's promotion was disturbed by Heshen, and Jiaqing was almost implicated.
Because of this incident, Jiaqing hated He Shen. He Shen had offended Jiaqing far more than this. When Qianlong was 86 years old, when he wanted to abdicate to Jiaqing, He Shen stood up to block it. Later, when the Zen throne ceremony was about to be held, Heshen said to Qianlong: "The succeeding emperor has insufficient political experience. Qianlong can only pass on the throne but not the jade seal." Qianlong refused to hand over the jade seal to Jiaqing, and finally Liu Yong and other ministers He stepped forward and persuaded Qianlong to hand over the jade seal. After Jiaqing became emperor, Heshen also ordered half of the coins to be " Jiaqing Tongbao", and the other half was still minted as " Qianlong Tongbao". Although Jiaqing was the emperor, Heshen reported directly to Qianlong without asking Jiaqing about matters in the court, or he made his own decisions. With Heshen's help, Jiaqing became Qianlong's puppet emperor for three years, which deepened Jiaqing's resentment towards Heshen.
On February 7, 1799, after Qianlong's death, Jiaqing directly ordered the dismissal of He Shen from his official position, regardless of the custom of not handling government affairs during national mourning. Later, he asked the ministers to impeach and investigate Heshen, and finally listed more than 20 crimes against Heshen and sentenced Heshen to death.
After Heshen was killed, Jiaqing thought of his sister, the tenth princess, and did not involve his son Fengshen Yinde and kill him as well. At the request of the ten princesses, Jiaqing also allowed Fengshen Yinde to "temporarily leave the city to attend to the funeral" and attend to Heshen's funeral. His father was killed. Although he kept his title because of the tenth princess, his career as a noble and virtuous man was over, and he had no other expectations in life.
After life lost its meaning, Fengshen and Yinde began to degenerate and enjoy themselves in time. He Shen offended many people during his lifetime. At the same time, officials who were originally attached to Heshen shamelessly impeached Heshen and Heshen's son Fengshen Yinde in order to cut themselves off from him and establish an image of themselves as upright, honest and good officials. Someone reported to Jiaqing that Fengshen Yinde wanted to murder the tenth princess and gave birth to a child with his concubine. Jiaqing sent people to investigate the matter. It was found that Fengshen Yinde's murder of the tenth princess was false, but the story of having a child with his concubine was true.
Jiaqing was very angry and deprived Fengshen Yinde of his official position and title, and demoted him to Uliasutai. Fengshen Yinde was originally weak, but soon he became seriously ill in the exile. At the pleading of his sister, the Tenth Princess, Jiaqing allowed Fengshen Yinde to return to Beijing to recuperate, but he died of illness shortly after his return. Although the tenth princess was favored by her brother Jiaqing and nephew Daoguang emperors, she and Fengshen Yinde had no children. Therefore, after her husband passed away, even though she had enough food and clothing, she was always lonely, unhappy and unhappy.
In 11823, the tenth princess died of illness at the age of 49.
