Speaking of the history of in the Qing Dynasty, I believe many people can know a lot of things. After all, during this period, there were many people we are very familiar with.
These people not only occupy a place in history, but also appear very frequently in film and television works.
Among them, many ministers of the Qing Dynasty were like this. For example, Nian Gengyao was a celebrity in front of an emperor, but his life can be said to be very magical and makes people sigh.
Nian Gengyao and Yongzheng We can clearly see the bond between them in the TV series. Whether it is "Yongzheng Dynasty " or "The Legend of Zhen Huan ", we can see from it that Nian Gengyao's life begins Ups and downs.
We know that he is a chief official in the border area and made great contributions, but in the end he ended up being killed.
Some people may think it’s a pity for him, but some people think that these are all for reasons. What is the truth? It still needs to be reviewed after his life.
First-for-nothing
We all know that he finally sat in a very high position, but in fact he didn't do that from the beginning, he also accumulated step by step.
In the last years of Kangxi when he was in power, everyone thought that the emperor liked the most was Lao Si, so he was sent to the front line to fight.
But unexpectedly, at this time, Emperor Kangxi passed away, and Yongzheng, who was close to the water tower, ascended the throne, but after returning, Lao Shisi discovered that the world had changed drastically.
When Lao Si Si led his troops to fight on the front line, of course, he needed food and grass from the rear as support. At this time, Nian Gengyao took on such a role.
Because Nian Gengyao was very powerful every time, he was promoted by the Fourteenth brother, and even promoted him to the position of governor of Sichuan.
Later, with the development of the situation, Nian Gengyao also formed his own strength in the local area, gaining his own troops, and it was also a threat to Lao Sisi.
At this time, Yongzheng, who had just ascended the throne, certainly needed to consolidate his regime, so he began to kill brothers and sisters very cruelly in history.
He wants to eliminate the strength of Eighth Prince and 14th Master. At this time, Longkodo in Beijing and Nian Gengyao in the northwest region are the best choices.
So the two made great contributions to Emperor Yongzheng ascending the throne. But unexpectedly, Nian Gengyao was killed by Emperor Yongzheng, but this was not without a reason.
Arrogance and domineering lead to bad consequences
After helping Yongzheng ascend the throne, Yongzheng also trusted him very much and gave him great power to let him control the entire northwest region alone, whether in military, political or economic terms, he controls it alone. In this case, he became the local emperor. However, it is precisely this centralization that has enabled the situation in the entire Northwest region to be unprecedentedly stable.
After this, every year when Nian Gengyao came to the palace to meet, he was arrogant, as if he had made great contributions. Yongzheng naturally appreciated him very much, and Yongzheng would appoint the officials he recommended.
But unexpectedly, these people turned against each other and even said bad things about Nian Gengyao, saying that he was treasonous, and later Emperor Yongzheng transferred him to Hangzhou.
During the migration from the northwest region to Hangzhou, his property was exposed. He had hundreds of acres of land and countless jewelry in the local area. He also lost a lot of it in the process of rushing employment.
Later, even when he was an official in Hangzhou, the court still had no less voices of impeachment. In addition, he was arrogant and domineering, and he felt that he was a master of great achievements, so Emperor Yongzheng was naturally very afraid, and at this time, Ordered to kill him.
Many people think Emperor Yongzheng is cruel and ruthless. He breaks the bridge and kills the donkey after crossing the river. However, he didn't expect that he saw the handwriting left by Nian Gengyao during the whole family. These words shocked everyone present after reading it. , which made the emperor even more angry, and these words are: The emperor's words are worthless. The words
do show that in his heart, he no longer took the emperor seriously.It is no wonder that he did so many things that outweigh the etiquette of the monarch and his subjects.
