Chapter 361 Yongzheng Qianpin 14
Then when he was immersed in the dream and didn't want to wake up, he was slapped back by someone.
The severe pain and fatigue in his body reminded him of what was happening in reality.
But he was afraid of forgetting the dream, so he closed his eyes and thought about it carefully.
The more I think about it, the more disappointed I feel!
He saw the extreme grief expressed by his good son after his death.
He beat his chest and stamped his feet, wailing incessantly, and even grabbed the coffin during the funeral, refusing to let anyone close the lid. This behavior made court officials and royal family members sigh at his filial piety.
In just three days, he had gained enough fame by singing during the day.
At night, I would also satirize his policies and methods...
What's even more ridiculous is that in order to shut up the court officials who were making groundless accusations, his good son quickly revealed the cause of his death through a series of actions.
He first openly sent away the Taoist priests in the palace, but secretly killed them on the spot!
How could he let those people live?
Then another decree was issued, suggesting that he died suddenly from taking a poisonous pill.
Little did he know that those people were all brought to him with great effort by his good son.
Also, the Niuhulu clan!
His good tenth brother is also restless!
The more Yongzheng thought about it, the angrier he became, but this was not what made him most angry.
His good son typically picks up the bowl to eat meat, puts the bowl down and curses his mother!
After ascending the throne, in order to consolidate his power base, he pardoned the descendants of royal criminals and restored their clan status.
This move actually earned him a good reputation.
He didn't mention the grievances and insults he had suffered at all, and every word he said was entirely his fault!
Why should he forgive him? !
The difference is that he won. If he lost, he would still have a day to step on his shoulders and act arrogantly! ?
Little did he know that in the same situation, it was still unclear whether he could suppress those people. Given his personality, he would probably squeeze the blood out of those people behind their backs and still get a good reputation!
The difference is that he is too lazy to put on a show, but his good son is a natural actor!
Yongzheng was so angry that he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night!
If he remembered correctly, the time that followed seemed to have been accelerated!
The late emperor went to the south of the Yangtze River to understand the people's sentiments, but instead, he, a Son of Heaven, plays with prostitutes!
He also loves luxury. Did he work so hard to save up that little fortune just for him to squander it like that?
That would have been fine, but Qianlong often corresponded with King Louis XVI of France and knew that the world outside was changing with each passing day!
But he wanted to hide in the prosperous Qing Dynasty and not make any progress!
Don’t seek development in a prosperous and stable era!
Even the British Museum in the UK preserves a 1793-word reply letter that Qianlong wrote to King George III of England in 976.
In the letter, Qianlong rejected Britain's request for trade and showed his arrogant attitude.
At that time, Qianlong was no different from a frog in a well!
Especially when they learned that Louis XVI was beheaded during the French Revolution, the Qing Dynasty's rule of literary inquisition was further strengthened!
The Great Clearing cleared away all other sounds and changes, and he was even afraid of the guns that were pointed at him.
You know, at this time, the West called the Qing Dynasty the Celestial Empire!
The direct destruction of the Dzungar Khanate shocked the West, after all, it was supported by two major powers, Britain and Tsarist Russia.
Including the later Opium War, which was actually a small test to find a way to deal with this behemoth.
But Zuo Zongtang recovered Xinjiang and forced the then-powerful Tsarist Russia to give up Ili, and the Western powers became a little afraid again.
Later, the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 made the West see clearly the weakness of the Qing Dynasty.
From then on, the great powers had no more scruples about the Chinese land, and truly began to unscrupulously divide up China.
An island country supported by Britain was able to break through the window paper of the Qing Dynasty. When the great powers saw this, they thought, why not divide the spoils?
The cultural and ideological constraints made the Qing nobles, who later sat high in the government and indulged in extravagance, extremely corrupt, and it was impossible for people with lofty ideals to realize their ambitions!
It can be said that it was because of him that the Qing Dynasty gradually became a fish on the chopping board!
Yongzheng was actually feeling lucky at this moment!
He doesn't need a stubborn and self-righteous successor!
The next day, Yongzheng lay there dying.
It was still Concubine Xi who was ill, and Hongli rushed over with people early in the morning, thinking that the emperor was dying!
Seeing Yongzheng’s pale face, he burst into tears.
Yongzheng found everything he saw in his dream interesting.
He didn't dare to believe everything in the dream, but his good son's actions were always moving in that direction!
"My Emperor, my Emperor, your son can't bear to leave you!" Hongli crawled over on his knees, holding Yongzheng's hand and crying.
"Father, please wake up. Your son doesn't want anything but you to wake up!"
Hongli was so absorbed in crying that he didn't notice that Concubine Xi was not there at all.
"Fourth Prince, Your Majesty, this is not a long-term solution! How about you let the Fourth Prince ascend the throne? If Your Majesty is not feeling well, move him to Changchun Garden to recuperate, isn't that a good idea?"
A court official looked around and hurriedly expressed his opinion.
"How can this be possible? The Emperor will definitely wake up!" Hongli looked angry.
"But the country cannot be without a monarch for a day! If the emperor doesn't wake up, the court will be in turmoil, and the emperor will not be at peace when he leaves!"
When several court officials saw Yongzheng's pale face, they quickly expressed their opinions and tried to persuade Hongli.
"I don't believe it. The Emperor will be safe." Hongli looked righteous.
"Fourth Prince, we also want the emperor to be blessed by heaven, but Imperial Doctor Ye said that the emperor... wuwuwu..."
Even the ministers of the Niuhuru clan couldn't help it.
While the courtier was speaking, he actually started to sob.
Those who reacted quickly started crying and wiping their tears, while those who reacted slowly couldn't hide the surprise on their faces.
"Well, young master..." After the emperor and his ministers pushed and shoved each other back and forth three times, Hongli felt that he could ascend the throne according to everyone's wishes.
"I don't agree with this! The emperor is just sick, and you are planning to rebel?"
Hong Zhou strode in, stood beside Yongzheng and glared at Hongli angrily.
Following closely behind were Zhang Tingyu, Li Wei, Yunli, Yunlu...
Hongli saw Zhang Tingyu's eyes narrowed, and suddenly his face became full of grief and anger!
Hong Zhou didn't have any ideas. He just saw through Hong Li's character and didn't want to do what he wanted!
"Fifth Prince, don't talk nonsense. Who dares to commit treason and rebel?" Ortai jumped out quickly.
"Oh? The Emperor is ill, and fourth brother has detained Su Peisheng and dismissed Imperial Physician Liu! Even the guards guarding the Palace of Tranquil Longevity have been replaced. Is fourth brother afraid that the Emperor will wake up?!" Hong Zhou felt depressed when he thought of the news he had just received.
His brother even arranged a mission for him outside the capital!
Is this because they are afraid that he will delay his seizure of the throne? !
Otherwise, he wouldn't have come back halfway. He just didn't want to get any advantage from this scheming villain!
