Expose why Hongxi, the son of the abandoned prince, wanted to rebel and assassinate Gan Long.

The plot of the TV series Yongzheng Dynasty about the testamentary edict of Emperor Kangxi is very wonderful. In fact, there are various versions of Emperor Kangxi's testamentary edict in history. According to North Korea's Records of the Li Dynasty, after the death of Emperor Kangxi, people had the following rumors: "Emperor Kangxi was ill in Changchun Garden, and he knew that he couldn't get up, so he called the old horse saying,' Abandoning the eldest son of the Prince, the eldest son, is asexual. I love Prince Luo Fei's second son, and he named him Prince. "passed away." There is only one sentence, "I love to abolish the second son of the prince and make him a prince." It left people with endless imagination, and it turned into a rebellious "reversal" in the Qianlong Dynasty!

The "second son of deposed prince" mentioned in Kangxi's testamentary edict refers to Hong Xihong, the second son of deposed prince Yin Yong.

Hong is the eldest grandson of Kangxi. When he was a child, he was kept in the palace by Kangxi and was deeply loved by Kangxi. Before Yin Mo was abolished, Kangxi's affection for Yin Mo was so deep that he was attached to it. When Kangxi was on patrol, he had to give him his old clothes, so that he could wear "seeing things and thinking about people" when he missed Yin Mo. From his son and grandson, it is conceivable that Kangxi also doted on this eldest grandson in every way.

Moreover, Hongxi's personality and talent are good, and she is praised by people far and near. North Korea's envoy said, "The emperor's eldest grandson (that is, Hongxi) is quite virtuous and difficult to abolish." That is to say, Kangxi felt embarrassed when he deposed the prince, because his eldest grandson Hongxi was very virtuous. Even after the second abolition of the prince, there are still rumors that Li Sanyin is more likely to become a prince because "the eldest grandson of the emperor is quite virtuous". It can be seen that if the prince is not deposed and succeeds to the throne normally, Hong will undoubtedly become the heir to the throne and eventually ascend to the throne of the emperor, and there will be no problem.

As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Before Kangxi's death, Hongxi had high hopes, which led to a strong sense of superiority, great hope for the throne and deep jealousy for Yongzheng Qianlong and his son. During the Yongzheng dynasty, Yongzheng only regarded him as a weak descendant of a "dead tiger", and did not deliberately suppress him, trying to appease him as much as possible and sealing him as the county king. In addition, Yongzheng severely punished all opposition members in the imperial clan, which made Hong feel scared and did not cause trouble. After Yongzheng's sudden death and Qianlong's succession to the throne, Hongxi's repressed "imperial desire" began to stir. He claimed to be the "eldest son of the Old East Palace", wooed a group of imperial clan members, and "secretly communicated" in an attempt to overthrow the Qianlong Dynasty and replace it, which led to the famous "Hongxi Inverse Case" in history!

According to historical records, in the early years of Qianlong, Hongxi and Zhuang Yunlu, the sixteenth son of Kangxi, and their descendants Hongsheng, Hongchang and others "formed a party for personal gain and secretly communicated". In Zhengjiazhuang, where Hong lived, he also set up the Ministry of Internal Affairs and its subordinate institutions, which "imitated the state system", showing that he posed as a saint and resisted the court. He also asked someone to tell a fortune and asked, "Can Junggar go to Beijing? Is the world peaceful? How long can the emperor live? Can I rise in the future?" Maybe he secretly hoped that Junggar would fight back, and he could seek power when the world was in chaos. Or perhaps it is the hope that the emperor (Qianlong) will die early, and he, as the "son of the old East Palace", is expected to seize the throne. Not only that, he and the members of the counter-case also took action to prepare to assassinate Gan Long and seize the throne. "According to people's records at that time, Zhuang's son (one of the members of the Hong inverse case) went out by the emperor's autumn hunting, but because the patrol alert in Qianlong was not extremely strict, there was a' conspiracy'. This is probably an assassination plan. (Note: See "Forever Volume 4")-Excerpted from the second volume of Zhou's Biography of Cao Xueqin. However, their plot was quickly cracked and extinguished by Qianlong, and it did not succeed. After Hongxi was detained in Zongrenfu for hearing, she "still had nothing to hide and resisted false confession", and was finally removed from the clan, renamed 46, and imprisoned for life.
