"Who can pass the love..."
On TV, the ending song of " The Legend of Zhen Huan " sounded, and Xiaoyun's crying sounded.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo As a graduate student in history, she has never been able to understand what TV series is exactly the same as history, but can only be said to be irrelevant.
"Xiao Jin, you said, how could it be so miserable? Zhen Huan is really miserable. Born in that era, wuwuwu." In
Xiao Yun's voice sounded again, and Xiao Jin said helplessly: "Television series is just a TV series, you have to separate it from reality."
"What?" Hearing Xiao Jin's words, Xiaoyun couldn't help but be stunned: "Is "The Legend of Zhen Huan" a real story?"
" Of course No." Xiao Jin put down the computer and said, "The Emperor Yongzheng in history is not easy to mess with. His harem can be said to be calm, harmonious and beautiful."
" Really?" "
" Of course, Emperor Yongzheng was A man with a mysterious wife-controlling technique can stand firmly."
Xiao Jin's words aroused Xiao Yun's curiosity: "Tell me quickly, this mysterious wife-controlling method What is the technique? "
Concubines with completely different personalities
Xiaoyun's strong desire for knowledge touched Xiao Jin. She put down the computer in her hand, sorted out her thoughts, and started talking.
Yongzheng's technique of controlling his wife must first start with his concubines.
We all know that Queen Ulanara in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is well-known for its viciousness. The reason is that Queen Ulanara was jealous in the palace, which made Yongzheng's child either die in the womb or die at a young age. , and they will also frame favored concubines. According to historical records, compared with his father, Kangxi and his son Qianlong, Yongzheng's descendants and concubines can be said to be very few. Is this also the work of Ulanara ?
It is not true. According to historical records, this Ulanara family was a virtuous woman. She was famous for her kindness and kindness and kindness. She was a role model for the noble ladies in the capital at that time. How could such a queen who has won the world be the cruel, ruthless, cruel and jealous Ulanara in the TV series?
It can be said that the peace in Yongzheng's harem first started with this empress.
and the well-known concubine Nian. In "The Legend of Zhen Huan", this concubine Nian is beautiful and charming, and is deeply loved by Yongzheng. It can be said that she is the red rose in Yongzheng's heart. However, the concubine Nian in history is not like this in TV series at all.
According to historical records, this year's concubine is a very cautious person. Given the power of his brother Nian Gengyao in the court, Nian Concubine was walking on thin ice in the palace and was even more respectful to the Empress.
At the same time, unlike the vitality in TV series, the Nian Concubine in history is an absolute "medicine jar". It is not an exaggeration to say that it is " Lin Daiyu " in Yongzheng's harem. If the concubine Nian in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is the red rose of Emperor Yongzheng, the real concubine Nian can be said to be the white moonlight of Emperor Yongzheng . Except for identity and favor, the rest are different.
Even with such a body and personality, how could Concubine Nian cause trouble in public stocks and cause trouble? Even if she wanted to, her body wouldn't allow her to do so.
The last thing I want to talk about is Zhen Huan.There is a plot in "The Legend of Zhen Huan". Zhen Huan, who had just entered the palace, asked her childhood sweetheart imperial physician Wen Shichu to prescribe medicine for pretending to be sick, and finally went to Yimeiyuan with Yongzheng in Yimeiyuan They met each other and were forced to get involved in the battle in the harem and eventually became the queen mother.
history, is it the same? The answer is no.
According to historical records, Zhen Huan was not favored at the beginning of entering the palace. After being favored by the emperor, she gave birth to the fourth prince Hongli , which is the future Emperor Qianlong.
Emperor Yongzheng has few descendants. Because of his "mother is noble by his son", Zhen Huan was named Concubine Xi, becoming the second only to the queen and Concubine Nian. Not long after, Concubine Nian passed away because of poor health, Zhen Huan became the second-ranked person; afterwards, the queen also passed away, and Zhen Huan became the top leader of Yongzheng's harem.
As long as you live happily, you can be promoted and raised and become the lord of the harem. How could such a lucky person need to take action on the palace battle by himself?
Hearing this, Xiaoyun suddenly realized: "Oh, it turns out that the reason why Emperor Yongzheng's harem was pure and there was no fighting is that the concubines in high positions were not fighting or scrambling."
"This is only a small part of the reason." Xiao Jinyao Shaking his hand, he said, "Although the concubines are part of their personality, don't forget that the reason why the concubines compete for each other in palace dramas is because there are too many monks and too little porridge, and they are so charming. The real reason for the purity of Yongzheng's harem is in Yongzheng "
The intelligent and diligent emperor
In history, incidents of princes fighting for the throne are common, but the most intense one is the " Kowloon Fighting the Throne " during the Kangxi period.
"Nine Dragons Fighting for the Throne" is also known as Nine Sons Fighting for the Throne . In his later years, 9 of the 24 sons participated in the competition for the throne. There were three parties in the initial competition, one was the princely party headed by the prince, one was the eldest prince party headed by , and the other was the prince headed by
prince . The Grandpa .
Later, the prince was deposed twice and the eldest prince was banned by Kangxi. Seeing that the prince had no hope of inheriting, the fourth prince separated from the prince and set up his own business. Gradually, the Fourth Master Party was formed, which was in confrontation with the Eighth Master Party.
Finally, when Kangxi died, the candidate for the throne supported by the Eighth Master Party was far away from the frontier, so the Fourth Master in the capital was the first to be near the water tower and became the next emperor.
7 years of struggle, in our opinion today, is just a line of text in history books, but for Yongzheng, who survived and won this war, the least he wanted to see was "Jiulong". The battle for the throne" reenacted. So, the clever Yongzheng came up with a way to avoid the struggle for the throne - to establish a secret crown system.
Secret Prison system is different from the previous Prison system. Yongzheng will conduct an investigation on the princes, write the names of the identified heir to the throne on two imperial edicts, and hide a secret in the "Zhengda Guangming" plaque in Qianqing Palace Later, one is controlled by the emperor. The heirs above can be changed at any time as long as the emperor wants to change them.
It can be said that only after Yongzheng's death will the world know who this true heir is. In addition, in order to prevent the concubines from tampering with each other, the last two imperial edicts must be opened by the imperial minister trusted by the emperor, and then compared and confirmed that they are correct before they can be informed. As soon as a system like
was released, many people who were ready to move gave up their minds. The competition between the princes has also changed from mutual assassination to a healthy competition to study hard and please the father.
It is precisely because of this system that the concubines in the harem have dispelled the idea of fighting with each other. If you have this time to fight, it is better to please the emperor. Maybe the name on the imperial edict will become your own son.
"Wow, Yongzheng is really smart, unlike the emperor in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", who is selfish and suspicious." Xiaoyun said.
"Hey, it's wrong for you to say that." Xiao Jin explained: "This is filmed in "The Legend of Zhen Huan". The same is true for E Yongzheng in history, who is selfish and suspicious."
"How to say it?" Xiao Yun asked.
According to historical records, in the later years of Kangxi, although the Fourth Master Party and the Eighth Master Party competed with each other in the court, under the operation of the Eighth Master Party, most people at that time believed that the Fourteenth Master Association, supported by the Eighth Master Party, were the fourteenth Master Association at that time. Become the heir to the throne. Therefore, when Emperor Yongzheng, the fourth prince at that time, ascended the throne, many people became dissatisfied with him, and even more suspected that Yongzheng's throne was obtained by usurping the throne. The eighth prince is the one who is in the brunt of this song. It is said that when Emperor Yongzheng assigned tasks to the Eighth Prince, the Eighth Prince leaned against the pillars in the hall, looked up at the sky, pretending to be unable to hear it.
followed by Yongzheng's younger brother, the candidate who was supported by the Eighth Master Party at the time - the Fourteenth Master. The 14th Master believed that Yongzheng had snatched his throne, and in full view of everyone, he openly cursed Yongzheng. There are also Yongzheng and his fourteenth mother, Uyashi. At that time, she didn't believe that it was the Fourth Prince who ascended the throne, and even said that what she expected was not what she expected.
It would be fine if the royal people questioned Yongzheng's superiority, but the ministers in the court even expressed doubts about Yongzheng's superiority. A minister named Orolongtai even threw Yongzheng's imperial edict to the ground. Not only that, the small country affiliated to the Qing Dynasty also expressed doubts about Yongzheng's rise. It was recorded in a historical book in Korea that North Korea believed that Yongzheng's throne was obtained by him tampering with Kangxi's will.
Moreover, Yongzheng's "four major crimes" have been circulating in the market - "suggesting his father", "forcing his mother", "slaughtering his brother" and "killing his brother".
First talk about this "proposing father". According to historical records of the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi was always serving the fourth prince in front of his bed before his death. On that day, after drinking a bowl of ginseng soup from Emperor Yongzheng, Emperor Kangxi passed away. Although there is no definite evidence. However, such coincidence made everyone in the world wonder whether Emperor Yongzheng "killed his father and seized the throne."
Secondly, after Emperor Yongzheng ascended the throne, he often quarreled with his mother Uya because of his brother, the Fourteenth Master. Because she prefers her younger son, Uya always believes that her younger son should have won the throne. So when Yongzheng enthroned her as the empress dowager, she was unwilling to accept the court officials' kneeling.
It is said that for some reasons, Yongzheng planned to send the Fourteenth Master to the northwest border. How could Uya, who felt sorry for his youngest son, agree? However, Yongzheng did not intend to change this intention. The mother and son argued and finally became healthy. Uya died of sudden illness in just a few hours. There are also reports that Uyashi did not die of illness, but died of a collision with a pillar. This is the origin of "forcing mother".
"Where is Brother Tu?" Xiaoyun asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, I'll tell you slowly." Xiao Jin took a sip of water and said.
Speaking of this "Brother Tu", we all know that Yongzheng's brothers are in the fourth place, with three brothers above. The eldest prince and the deposed prince were already enclosed in a high wall before Yongzheng ascended the throne. Although he had no freedom, Life is not bad. After Yongzheng ascended the throne, a minister wrote a letter to suggest that Yongzheng release his two brothers. Not only did Yongzheng not adopt it, but his two brothers were also banned. Not long after, the eldest prince and the deposed prince passed away one after another. So, Yongzheng's name "Brother Tu" was spread. After
, he even banned the third prince for eight serious crimes. It is impossible to know whether these eight major crimes are true, but the third prince has been calling for justice, so everyone believes that Yong Zhen is actually "slaughtering brother". The three major crimes above
are true or false, and there is no way to investigate now, but the crime of "killing my brother" was so serious that Yongzheng sat down. These two younger brothers are the biggest obstacles when Yongzheng seized the throne - the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince .
After Yongzheng ascended the throne, these two men were still lawless and did not take Yongzheng seriously. Yongzheng, who could not bear it, demoted the two men to common people and gave them the names "Aqina" and "Seshei". In Manchu , these two words mean pig and dog. It is enough to prove that Yongzheng's disgust towards these two younger brothers.
Ten days after being deposed, Aqina and Sethhei passed away in the double torture of spirit and body.
After that, Yongzheng, who had the "four major crimes" and was questioned by the world, became a lonely man. Under the premise of knowing that Emperor Yongzheng was cold-blooded, which concubine had the courage to cause trouble? I'm afraid that he was sentenced to death by Yongzheng before he could cause storms. It is precisely because of this that Emperor Yongzheng's harem is more calm than other emperors.
Hearing this, Xiaoyun smacked her lips and said, "I didn't expect that Yongzheng in history is even more cruel than in the TV series. In the end, he became a lonely man. He deserves it, he is a fool!"
"Hey, I can't say that either." Xiao Jin refuted Xiaoyun's statement, "Humans have two sides, and so is Yongzheng."
"How to say it?"
Although Yongzheng was a cruel and cold-blooded person based on others' evaluation of Yongzheng, he became the emperor. As time goes by, more and more people change Yongzheng's attitude.
Yongzheng can be said to be the most diligent emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and even the eternal emperor Kangxi cannot be compared with it. In our current words, Emperor Yongzheng was an absolute workaholic, and he was the 007. During the reign of Emperor Yongzheng, most of his time was spent in the Qianqing Palace, and he reviewed tens of thousands of memorials every year, just like a modern teacher who approved papers. But unlike the teacher correcting the papers, the number of memorials is as high as tens of thousands, and Yongzheng is still an emperor who likes to make annotations on memorials.
During the reign of Yongzheng, one year the famine in the south was frightened. Yongzheng discussed with the court officials to transport some grain from various places to Jiangnan. Henan Governor Tian Wenjing suggested transporting wheat, and the Minister of Revenue Zhang Tingyu suggested transporting Xiaomi . The two quarreled in the court. The deal cannot be made. In the end, Emperor Yongzheng made a decision. Both are transported, and the final sales volume determines the type of transportation next time.
Finally, wheat was sold well in Jiangnan. Emperor Yongzheng was very happy. He praised Tian Wenjing and rewarded many jewelry. Tian Wenjing is a good person who knows that he cannot take all the credits, so he wrote a letter to praise Yongzheng: "It is all the credits of the emperor. If it were not for the emperor's decision and teachings, I would not be today."
Yongzheng saw this I was very happy in the memorial and wrote this comment on it: "I am such a man! I am such a character! I am such an emperor! If you ministers don't let me down, I will definitely let you down ! "
" Hahahahahahaha, I really can't tell, is Yongzheng so narcissistic?" Xiaoyun laughed hilariously on the sofa.
Not only that, when the Khalkha deputy general Cewangzhabu and others, who had made contributions to guarding the border, submitted a memorial to ask whether Yongzheng was safe and healthy. Yongzheng happily waved his hand and wrote a reply on the memorial: Let me let me I am so happy, what disease will not be cured? I am in good health and have healed. Can I call you baby affectionately?
You should know that the relationship between Yongzheng and his ministers is to use modernization to describe superiors and employees. Let me ask, which bosses can do the same as Yongzheng now?
In ancient times, when using brushes, thousands of memorials were reviewed every day, and each one would write corresponding annotations. By the time Yongzheng raised his head, it was already late at night. Emperor Yongzheng, who spent a lot of time and energy on reviewing memorials, still had time and energy to enter the harem? This is also one of the reasons why Emperor Yongzheng's harem is calm.
An emperor and 25 concubines were in a state of too many monks and too little porridge. This bowl of porridge did not even give monks a chance to eat.So how do monks have the opportunity to compete for? This kind of scene often occurs in Yongzheng's harem. That is the day when a group of concubines gathered together, looking forward to the emperor's visit to the harem.
We all know that among women in the harem, there are only two things that can be fought for - pampering and offspring.
children are not mentioned, Yongzheng's secret system of establishing a crown has dispelled their ideas; if you love this side, Emperor Yongzheng is a workaholic again, he is not a good woman, and he has only a few days to enter the harem. There are two things that can be fought for, one has nowhere to "fight" and the other has no chance to fight; let alone Yongzheng's personality and story that became a lonely man. Who would fight in this situation? Who dares to fight?
"Do you understand? Yongzheng's "wife control technique"?" Xiao Jin asked Xiaoyun, who was already stunned by the side with a smile.
"I understand, I understand." Xiaoyun patted her chest and said unsatisfiedly: "To this day, Emperor Yongzheng is a pure male protagonist."
"You said that, although it is a matter of palace fighting. Yes, it really exists in history, but what I didn’t expect was that the most noisy and chaotic ones made up was the quietest harem in history. “Xiao Jin said.
The mysterious art of controlling wife is no longer mysterious. To sum up, we have solved the answer to the calmness of Yongzheng's harem, one is because Yongzheng is a workaholic, two is because Yongzheng's secret system of establishing a crown prince, and three is because Yongzheng's "Four major crimes".
Although Emperor Yongzheng's reputation was not good at the beginning and he became a lonely man because of the "four major crimes", it cannot be denied that the country and the people were safe during his thirteen years of reign. It is precisely because of Emperor Yongzheng that Kangxi and Qianlong prosperous times was able to last for such a long time. The crime must be admitted, but we must not forget his achievements.
