Chapter 2673 The miserable emperor
An enlightenment and a wake-up call!
It can be said that it was Yongzheng's painting "The Picture of the Canglong Goddess" that changed Hongli's destiny and made him the Qianlong Emperor.
You know, inheriting the throne is not inheriting an inheritance.
The emperor has many sons, but if you have no future, he can give way to another one.
Fortunately, Hongli seized this opportunity and got the approval of Emperor Yongzheng. Therefore, this "Cang Long Goddess Picture" is of vital significance to Emperor Qianlong.
After the death of Emperor Yongzheng, Qianlong still thought about it and often took out the "Picture of the Canglong Goddess" gifted by his father to appreciate it. On the one hand, it was for nostalgia, and on the other hand, it was to spur himself on.
It is precisely because of this that he achieved the prosperous Qianlong era of his sixty years in power.
But it's a bit funny to say that when Qianlong was in his middle age, he also encountered the same problem as his father, Emperor Yongzheng. He had many sons, but few of them lived up to their expectations.
After reviewing them one by one, it turned out that the fifteenth son Yong Yan was pretty good, but it seemed that there was still a big gap between him and himself when he was young. Emperor Qianlong was not very satisfied.
After thinking about it, he learned and used the trick that his father Yongzheng warned him about.
However, the painting "Cang Long Godson Picture" written by Emperor Yongzheng was given to him last time. It was impossible for Emperor Qianlong to reward Yong Yan again. Later, Emperor Qianlong thought of a way and ordered the manufacturing office to make a pink celadon-glazed jar. , the glazed relief "Cang Long Godson Picture" can be regarded as a substitute for the painting.
Emperor Qianlong was very satisfied with the creation of the pink celadon glazed Canglong Godson Jar. Just like himself, he gave the Canglong Godson Jar to Yongyan on his tenth birthday, but he did not explain it and let his son realize it on his own.
As a result, Qianlong pretended to be a little too big.
He didn't even think about it. When you saw that painting, weren't you also confused? Only with Pan Shiquan's explanation did you understand Yongzheng's good intentions?
The results are self-evident. After half a year, Yong Yan has not made any progress. Only then did Emperor Qianlong think that his precious son may not be as "smart" as he is. After all, there are too few geniuses like him.
So, he ordered his personal eunuch to "implicitly" convey his intentions to Yong Yan, and it worked.
In the next more than a year, Yong Yan seemed to have opened up the two channels of Ren and Du, and the two businesses made rapid progress, and finally satisfied Emperor Qianlong.
Next, he followed the example of his father, Yongzheng Ye, and made Yong Yan the crown prince when he was thirteen years old. From then on, Yong Yan started his miserable career.
Why is it called a miserable life?
Because he has a great body, he eats deliciously, he doesn’t poop while occupying the latrine, and he doesn’t poop when he sits in the emperor’s position.
Came down.
Yong Yan grew up from a young boy to a man in his thirties. He still enjoys his position as emperor and has no intention of giving in.
After enduring it for another two years, Yong Yan couldn't bear it any longer, and her mentality was even about to collapse.
Qianlong's face was glowing after eating, drinking and having fun all day long, while Yong Yan looked sad every day, and her hair turned a lot of white. If this continued, there was no telling who would die first. Now, Yong Yan couldn't bear it anymore.
Yong Yan's mentality changed, and Emperor Qianlong also saw the clues in his words and deeds, and was very dissatisfied with his son.
Qianlong said to his heart, why don’t you understand my good intentions?
Your father is a prosperous Ming Dynasty master with rich experience, but you are still very young!
Isn’t this also for you to consolidate your empire? Why don’t you understand?
Emperor Qianlong was really disappointed with his son, and even thought about abolishing Yong Yan's order and establishing a crown prince, but after thinking about the virtues of his remaining sons, he finally gave up the idea.
Although Yong Yan disappointed him a little, it was undeniable that Yong Yan was the most outstanding among all his sons. For the sake of the Qing Dynasty, it should not be trivial.
After calming down and thinking about it carefully, it seems that Yong Yan's anxiety is understandable.
After thinking about it for a few more years, Emperor Qianlong finally figured it out. When Yong Yan was thirty-six years old, he finally abdicated the throne to him.
In fact, it was not that he had figured it out, but that Yong Yan was getting more and more impatient. If this continued, even if he was not anxious to die, he would have a mental breakdown.
Lord Qianlong was such an upbeat son. If he had any shortcomings, he would really be in trouble. He couldn't be like Ming Taizu and abdicate the throne to his grandson, right?
You know, Zhu Yunwen didn't sit here for a few years before he was taken down by his uncle Zhu Di. For this reason, soldiers fought against each other for several years.
If the issue of abdication really caused chaos in the Qing Dynasty, then he would be the eternal sinner of the Aisin Gioro family.
For the sake of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Qianlong gave in despite his unwillingness.
But the abdication was abdication, but Emperor Qianlong did not delegate power and always kept the power in his own hands. This led to an extremely rare scene in feudal history where the Supreme Emperor was in power.
The miserable Yong Yan struggled for thirty-six years and finally became the emperor, but was reduced to a puppet emperor. It was not until the death of Emperor Qianlong four years later that Yong Yan gained real power.
For forty years before and after, Emperor Jiaqing was really not easy, and even reached the edge of collapse.
Because of this, after taking power, Emperor Jiaqing was eager to prove himself, so the miserable Heshen became Emperor Jiaqing's test subject to prove himself. An enlightenment and a wake-up call!
