The Yongzheng Emperor was a good emperor who did his best to rule in history, but in the minds of most people, he was an emperor who “rebuilt his throne”, “mutilated his brothers and feet” and “had a cruel heart. ” He felt tyrannical and also did a thing to make future generations have different opinions about him, but also because of this incident, the successor Qianlong could sit on the throne for 60 years.

What Yongzheng did was “kill his own flesh and blood.” There were ten children in Yongzheng’s life, but in the end there were only four candidates who could become heirs, namely Hongshi, Hongli, Hongrui, and Hongcho. But why did the four Hongli princes finally ascend to the throne? ? In fact, among the four princes, Hongchao was young, and Hongzhou was absurd in behavior and had no intention of striving for the reservation, so the true heir was in Hongshi and Hongli.
Some historians once said that the relationship between Yongzheng and Hongshi reflected the theme of the inheritance of imperial power in the early days of the secret establishment of the reservation. Three months after the secret establishment of the reserve by Yongzheng, it turned out to be the death of the Kangxi Emperor. Yongzheng did not personally go to the memorial ceremony. Instead, he sent 13-year-old Hongli to go. Suddenly, the courtiers began to believe that Hongli was the secret crown prince, this also gradually deteriorated the father-son relationship between Yongzheng and Hongshi.
It is unexpected that when Hongshi was offering sacrifices to Kangxi, he pleaded for Yunxu and others imprisoned in the clan house with the words “the spirit of the first emperor in heaven, would like to see brothers and feet in harmony, respectful brothers and sisters.”

On February 18 of the fourth year of Yongzheng (1726), Yongzheng adopted Hongshi as his son in Yunhu. Then Yongzheng removed his clan status claiming that Hongshi was young and indulged and acted carelessly.
On the sixth day of September of the fifth year of the Yongzheng period (1727), Yongzheng once asked a soldier general about his brother’s suspicion of being involved in a certain case. He criticized, “I still have Aqina Yunhu, Seth Black Yunhu, etc. The traitor’s brother … not only siblings, but also parents and children can hardly know what they are doing.”It is noted that the Yongzheng Emperor’s connection between his parents and his son Yinhu, etc., is equivalent to the reason why Jiang Hongshi was given death and extermination, and gave a brief explanation.
This confirmed that Hiroshi’s political life was above 100%, and in less than two years, Hiroshi died of depression at the age of 24. And Hongli also ascended to the supreme throne.

There is a record about Hongshi in the Four Books of the Qing Dynasty Royal Family: the third son of Emperor Hongshi was born on February 13 in Jiashen in the 43rd year of Kangxi, and was recorded on August 6 in Dingwei in the Yongzheng’s fifth year. Young and forgiving, he did not want to cut his clan to die, he was twenty-four years old. In October of the thirteenth year, Gaozong ascended the throne and persecuted Fuzong.
