Why did Emperor Yongzheng have such a short lifespan among the emperors of the Qing Dynasty?

Those of us who have studied history know that Qing Dynasty was the last dynasty under the monarchy of our feudal society in China, which lasted for more than two hundred years.

There are a total of 12 emperors, 1. Nurhachi, 2. Emperor Taiji, 3. Emperor Shunzhi, 4. Emperor Kangxi, 5. Emperor Yongzheng, 6. Emperor Qianlong, 7. Emperor Jiaqing, 8. Emperor Daoguang , 9. Emperor Xianfeng, 10. Emperor Tongzhi , 11. Emperor Guangxu, 12. Emperor Xuantong (Aisin Jueluo Puyi)

Today I mainly want to tell you about the fifth emperor of the Qing Dynasty, also known as the fourth emperor Aixinjueluo Yinzhen (Yongzheng Emperor). Why do you want to talk about him? The main reason is that I have watched too many TV dramas about him, (the first drama I watched was "Step by Step Startling" starring Wu Qilong and Liu Shishi ). It seems a bit off topic, let's return to the main story, let's talk about how he ascended to the throne of God first!

You must know that the emperor before Yongzheng was the Emperor Kangxi. Emperor Kangxi had 24 sons, but only nine participated in the fight for the throne ( big elder brother , second elder brother, third elder brother, and four elder brothers Brother, eighth elder brother, nine elder brother, ten elder brother, thirteen elder brother, fourteenth elder brother) We now call it "Nine sons seize the prince".

(The introduction picture of "Nine Sons Seizing the Prophet" comes from the Internet)

Does it feel thrilling to hear the name?

In the end, the winner of the "nine sons seizing the sons" is the fourth prince we are talking about today, Aixinjueluo Yinzhen (Emperor Yongzheng), in fact, his reign was not very long, only thirteen years.But don't underestimate these thirteen years. These thirteen years can be regarded as the most important period of the Qing Dynasty, because he laid a very important foundation for the later Qianlong prosperous period.

Why do you say that?

Because during his reign, he carried out several major reforms to the rule of the Qing Dynasty and eliminated many corrupt officials. This made the country's treasury very full, and it also reduced the burden on the people and managed the country. It is well organized and law and order is also very stable. During the 13 years of his reign, he has dealt with the affairs of the country almost every day and made contributions to the country earnestly, and he can really be said to be the most industrious emperor in Chinese history.

But it is a pity that his reign is really short, but there is no way, because Emperor Yongzheng's enthronement time was relatively late, he was only 45 years old. (I think it may be because his previous generation Kangxi reigned for 60 years, and his next generation is also Emperor Qianlong who reigned for 63 years, so it seems that his reign is particularly short!) Actually his age In ancient times, it was not as short as 45 years old ascended the throne, 13 years of reign, that is, a total of 58 years old. We need to know that in ancient times, people’s medical care was limited, and a small illness or pain could kill them, so it’s pretty good that Emperor Yongzheng could live to 58 years old.

But how do you feel that I still haven't gotten to the point? Don't mind if there are too many chatterings at once.

Actually I think the main reason for Emperor Yongzheng’s short life is because he was too diligent. Right! You must know that Emperor Yongzheng was a well-known "work expert". Legend has it that after he became a throne, he worked desperately to rectify the officials. He did not let go of the time every night. He stayed up late to fall asleep until late, almost only four hours a day. Time to bed time. (Now we all know that staying up late is actually bad for your health)

So staying up all night also caused his health to get worse and worse.After he fell ill, he took some medicinal pills to replenish his body. We all know that although medicine can cure the disease, it is three-point poison. It may cure the disease if you take less, but if you take the medicine regularly, it will also cause great harm to your body. Hurtful. In addition, in Yongzheng, he has always been a workaholic who is immersed in hard work and stays up late, and he has not exercised much. If he does not move his tibia for a long time, people are also prone to get sick. In this way, people who do not exercise for a long time will have their immunity and immunity. If you lose your strength, you will definitely come to your door if you suffer from illness. So this may be the most important reason for the shorter life span of Emperor Yongzheng.

Emperor Yongzheng passed away in the thirteenth year of his ascension, at the age of 58.

Okay, that's it for today's article! I also want to remind everyone that you must not stay up often (although I am also a night owl who often stay up late) staying up late hurts your body, you must exercise more, the body is the capital of the revolution.
