Nian Gengyao was killed by Yongzheng, but why did his son adopt to the royal family?

Nian Gengyao was killed by Yongzheng, but his son was adopted to the royal family because Yongzheng was still very dependent on Nian Gengyao, and the adoption to the royal family was also to treat his son.

Nian Gengyao's eldest son is called Nian Gengyao. He is a very talented person, but his health is not very good. One year Xi was seriously ill and almost died, but Nian Gengyao was fighting at the front, so Yongzheng asked someone to read his divination. Because ancient people believed in divination, when they were sick, they didn't think about treating diseases first, but counted divinations. At that time, Nian Gengyao and his son were equal.

Therefore, Yongzheng proposed to adopt him to eliminate disasters for the royal family. After all, it's Yongzheng who opens his mouth. Even if Nian Gengyao doesn't want to, it's not good to refuse directly. But in fact, Yongzheng did this not only to treat Nianxi, but he actually considered a lot. Yongzheng had just acceded to the throne at that time, and he was still at home and abroad. Nian Gengyao could help him deal with the problems in the frontier, so he did it to stabilize Nian Gengyao and help Xi to cure diseases.

Yongzheng helped Nian Gengyao to take good care of his son, so that he could fight a good battle in the frontier without hesitation. Only by dealing with external problems, Yongzheng had time to deal with internal problems. After all, there were some younger brothers who did not support Yongzheng at that time and opposed him in the court. So at that time, Yongzheng still had to rely on Nian Gengyao, so we couldn't offend him at that time.

Although Nian Gengyao's power was too great, Yongzheng was very afraid, but at that time, he had to rely on Nian Gengyao to deal with other things before he had the energy to deal with Nian Gengyao. So in the end, Nian Gengyao could not escape the fate of being killed by Yongzheng. But at that time, the son adopted by the royal family happened before Nian Gengyao was killed, so these two things did not conflict. Of course, his son died of a serious illness after adoption.
