Chapter 909 Qing Shizong Reform

"After being deposed twice, the most powerful princeling has completely lost his chance of becoming emperor.

You can't just restore it and then abolish it, how will people in the world see it?

So after Crown Prince Yinreng was deposed, the other princes began to get restless again.

The Party of the Eighth Master has become the most competitive faction.

However, Emperor Kangxi always hated his sons forming cliques for personal gain, so the Eighth Prince's party was always suppressed.

In short, the emperor was old, his sons had grown up, and they coveted the position under him, so anyone who tried to show his head a little would be ruthlessly suppressed.

This is a common problem for many emperors, who are afraid that their throne will be taken away, even if that person is their own son. "

Actually, this is easy to understand. The emperor possesses the highest power and is in charge of life and death. Whoever he wants to die will die. That feeling is very satisfying without even thinking about it.

Who doesn’t want to live forever and be an emperor forever?

Who wants to give the throne to someone else?

Your own son is no different from anyone else's. The best thing is to have the one in your own hands.

None of the emperors in front of the sky wanted to speak. How can I put it? It was indeed the case.

Except for Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

This issue is also being discussed on the barrage.

Wanyan Aguda and the other two were also silent. Who would want to let someone else sit on the throne?

Even if they sit there for a lifetime it still wouldn't be enough.

"Those princes started to jump up and down again for the position of crown prince, and Emperor Kangxi actually saw all of this.

But you, Emperor Yongzheng, are different. You are the most low-key and do the opposite.

When the fight for the throne was at its most intense, you, Emperor Yongzheng, regarded yourself as the most idle person in the world.

He began to express his feelings through landscape poetry, showing a selfless attitude.

Those who don’t know would think that Emperor Yongzheng is not interested in the position of Crown Prince at all and only wants to be a leisurely prince.

As a result, Emperor Yongzheng gained the trust of Emperor Kangxi, but you secretly made friends with the royal relative Longkodo and the Governor-General of Sichuan and Shaanxi Nian Gengyao. In the end, it was with their help that you were able to successfully inherit the throne after the death of Emperor Kangxi.

Emperor Yongzheng, after Emperor Kangxi knows your deeds, I am afraid that you in your dimension will be...” Li Wu didn’t finish her words, but the ancestors knew what she was going to say.

Emperor Kangxi treated his sons like poisonous insects and did not allow them to make private friends. Now he knew that the fourth son, whom he thought was the most honest, turned out to be the least honest.

I don’t know how to be angry yet.

Yongzheng smiled bitterly and said, "Little Immortal, just let it be known." He came to the afterlife, and if he gained something, he would naturally lose something.

Fortunately, he has become the emperor. As for myself in my father's dimension, I can only wish myself good luck.

He wanted to manage it, but he really couldn't.

During the Kangxi period, Kangxi had a gloomy face and stared at Prince Yong Yinzhen.

The other princes never expected that their fourth brother, whom they had always thought to be selfless, was actually making friends with ministers behind their backs.

In the end, he ascended the throne. Although they knew this long ago, they were still a little unwilling to accept it.

After hearing that the fourth brother was exhausted to death, I couldn't help but feel sympathy for him.

Prince Yong Yinzhen knelt down quickly, and Longkodo and Nian Gengyao, with pale faces, also knelt down.

Kangxi didn't say anything, but just looked at them solemnly. The three of them were shaking badly.

"Let's first listen to what the immortal has to say," Emperor Kangxi said at last, but no one of the three stood up.

He is still angry. He hasn't even died yet, but there are already two people eyeing the throne right under his butt.

When the other princes heard what Emperor Kangxi said, they all became jealous of Yinzhen. Is their father going to give in?

Yes, now that Yinzhen has come to the future and ascended to heaven, he is naturally different and is remembered by the people.

The throne belongs to him alone. Even if my father wants to replace him with someone else in the future, the ministers or the people will not agree.

Because it’s completely different when you’re on the skylight.

Many people in the barrage also started talking about Emperor Yongzheng, especially Qianlong, who kept praising his father, Emperor Yongzheng.

After seeing this, Kangxi felt a little better. At least the fourth emperor did a good job.

"In 1722, Emperor Kangxi died of illness in Changchun Garden in the northern suburbs.

And you, Emperor Yongzheng, succeeded to the throne in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in accordance with the will of Emperor Kangxi and changed the reign title to Yongzheng.

After you, Emperor Yongzheng, ascended the throne, you established the secret system of appointing the crown prince based on your own personal experience in fighting for the throne.

From then on, the emperor no longer publicly appointed a crown prince, but instead made two copies of the edict to appoint a crown prince, one of which was placed behind the "Zhengda Guangming" plaque in the Qianqing Palace.

The other copy was kept by the emperor himself. When the emperor passed away, the two copies of the will were taken out. After confirming that they were correct, the heir to the throne was announced in public, thus avoiding disputes over the right to succession to the throne.

In his later years, Emperor Kangxi ruled the country with benevolence, which led to corrupt officials, a deficit in the national treasury, and serious factional struggles. In order to correct these phenomena, Emperor Yongzheng came to the throne.

You published the "Eleven Instructions" written by yourself, emphasizing your philosophy of governing the country, which is to govern the country with strictness.

After the issuance of this edict, Emperor Shizong of Qing Dynasty's vigorous reform began.

It can be said that the throne that Emperor Yongzheng took over was a complete mess left by Emperor Kangxi.

Financial difficulties and an empty treasury."

Li Wu looked at Yongzheng with sympathy. This emperor Yongzheng worked so hard, going to and from work only and sleeping for a short time every day. Li Wu really had to admire him.

Yongzheng gave a bitter smile. Otherwise, how could he think that what he took over was good?

Emperor Kangxi in front of the sky curtain was so angry. What did they mean by leaving a mess for the fourth son? What kind of mess could he leave behind?

After hearing this, several princes looked at Prince Yong Yinzhen with sympathy. In fact, the throne was not something he must have.

The main reason is that they don’t really want to take over the mess, but they still want the throne a little bit. A prince who doesn’t want to sit on the throne is not a good prince.

Which prince doesn’t have some ambitions?

"First, we implemented the policy of allocating taxes to each acre of land in all parts of the country, changing the previous practice of levying taxes based on both population and land area.

Only land tax is collected, so that the national tax revenue is mainly paid by landowners.

The burden on civilians has been reduced.

At the same time, strict land surveys were carried out across the country, making it difficult for landlords to hide their land, and the country's fiscal revenue increased greatly.

Later, Emperor Yongzheng, you implemented the policy of requiring both officials and gentry to pay taxes together, so that those civil servants who were previously exempt from taxes had to start paying taxes.

At the same time, the fire consumption was nationalized and the fire consumption collected from various places was handed over to the provincial government.

It will be distributed to local governments and civil servants in the form of a unified anti-corruption fund.

Since it increases fiscal revenue, it also helps to maintain clean government.

When Emperor Yongzheng was implementing these things, I think you encountered a lot of obstacles." Even if the emperor implemented some things, it didn't always go smoothly.
