Yongzheng Dynasty: Why did Kangxi make Grandpa Four an "orphan"?

An excellent team needs someone to be a good policeman and someone to be a bad policeman. People who need to win people's hearts also need people who are not afraid of power. During the Yongzheng period, Kangxi's sons grew up in different directions and played different roles in his mind. Yin Zhen can become an orphan, which is not only his own will, but also just in line with Kangxi's mind.

The Great Qing Dynasty needed an orphan to do practical things, and Kangxi needed an orphan to share his worries about Kangxi's later years. The Qing dynasty has begun to stagnate, and from top to bottom, bureaucrats are corrupt. Especially in the imperial court, people are overstaffed, the prince is busy fighting for power and profit, and hundreds of officials are busy making friends with wealth. Everyone is busy with public relations, the living expenses are high, but there are few legitimate sources of income. Officials in the Kangxi Dynasty earned more than two taels of silver a year 100, which was really difficult to support their families. As a result, these officials were either corrupt and perverted the law, further corrupting the Chaogang; Or borrow money from the household administration department.

The head of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development is the Eight Lords, who are hypocritical. In order to gain a good name, they do everything they can to win people's hearts. Someone came to the household department to borrow money, but he refused. Anyway, he is generous with other people's money and makes profits for himself. As long as a precedent is set, more and more people will borrow money and the amount will increase. So in the long run, the household department will soon be hollowed out.

When the Yellow River flooded, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development could not provide the money for disaster relief. Kangxi needs one at this time? Solitary minister? Stand up, since you have a fearless responsibility, you should also be selfless and extract teeth from salt merchants. Yin Zhen volunteered to go to Jiangnan. In order to complete the task, he offended a large number of people. In fact, he already has one? Solitary minister? The prototype of.

It is definitely not enough to solve the problem of disaster relief. There are places that spend a lot of money every year. So it is necessary for someone to come out and chase the debts owed by the state treasury. But this is another offensive task. No one is unwilling to come forward, so Kangxi can't come forward in person. Therefore, we need a prince who is not afraid of offending people to stand up. Yin Zhen has just offended a group of people by raising money, which has been formed in Kangxi's mind? Solitary minister? In my impression, this task of recovering arrears will naturally consider him.

This kind of offensive thing, I think of you once, and it becomes your job to do it twice, so? Solitary minister? This hat is on Yin Zhen's head. I'm afraid I can't take it off if I want to. With Yin Zhen? Solitary minister? Kangxi can do many things that are inconvenient for him, and he can also say things that are inconvenient for him.

Mei Qiu said: After all, Kangxi himself wanted to be benevolent, but he was afraid of taking the blame. Therefore, he needs someone who can be both a thug and a soldier. Shield? By the way, take the fall for Kangxi. Of course, the court wants long-term stability. Solitary minister? Is also an indispensable figure.

There are many princes, but they are expected to become? Solitary minister? Yes, Yin Zhen is the only good king, and everyone is willing to buy people's hearts; It is human nature that no one wants to be an orphan and offend others. And being an orphan is a very difficult thing, and you can't do it if you want to. Kangxi's son is either unsuitable or unwilling.

Brother is brave and foolhardy, and it's ok to go to the northwest to fight. The lone minister has nothing to do with him.

Second brother Yin Yong, as Chu Jun, Kangxi trained him as a successor, and he definitely needed someone to support him. Otherwise, his prestige is not enough to convince the public. Therefore, Yin Yong cannot lose the hearts and minds of the people.

Third brother is a literati, who works with Qing poetry every day and is responsible for the face project of Qing dynasty. This kind of person has relatively high theoretical literacy, no practical experience and lack of skills in governing the country, and is not suitable for being an orphan;

Eight, Laojiu, Ten and Fourteen of the Eight Ye Party empty their minds every day, either calculating others or winning people's hearts. It is said that they will offend people and run faster than rabbits. These people have ulterior motives. Kangxi's hope that they are orphans is a joke.

As for thirteen years old, a man with temperament is affectionate and righteous, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage. Many things left to him will be hindered by feelings.

It seems that only the fourth one is aggressive and not afraid of offending people, which is the most suitable condition for being an orphan. In addition, the old four has a strong personal will, and they are all orphans voluntarily, which Kangxi is happy to have.

At that time, Kangxi didn't intend to inherit Yin Zhen, but just wanted to train him into a right-hand man to assist the prince in the future. But then the situation changed suddenly, and the Yin people lived up to expectations, while the solitary minister Yin Zhen became more and more energetic. So, up a flight of stairs, the lonely priest became a widow.

Mei Qiu said: The opportunity came out. If you don't fight for it, others will take it away. Grandpa four and grandpa eight, treat? Solitary minister? Attitude is doomed to the image of two people in Kangxi's heart. Yin Zhen? Solitary minister? Position, both in line with the situation at that time, and just against kangxi? Yi Sheng? .
