Yong Zhengdi's headless death reveals how Yong Zhengdi died.

Yong Zhengdi's robes were painted by court painters in Qing Dynasty. Before reaching the summit, Yong Zhengdi believed in the fortune-telling of Taoist priests in Wuyishan. Later, he accepted Jiangxi Taoist Lou Jianyuan as a Buddhist disciple, raised Taoist Jia Shifang and Zhang Taixu in the palace, and practiced Dan medicine.

In addition, there is a saying that Yong Zhengdi died of poisoning by taking Dan medicine. These people found that Yong Zhengdi was very fond of magic by carefully studying the gathering of pearls in Yongzheng Dynasty. In order to live forever, Yong Zhengdi kept a large number of monks and Taoists in his palace. He himself is also very keen on divination, praying for God and other tricks. It is even often used to decide the appointment and promotion of officials. In Yongzheng's Yu Lan Ji, he wrote many poems praising immortals and elixirs. Besides government affairs, Yongzheng often studied Taoist mysteries such as alchemy, picking ling, flying crane and teaching method under the guidance of Taoist priests. In order to live forever, Yongzheng often took pills offered by Taoist priests. In the historical records of North Korea, there is a record that Yong Zhengdi was so addicted to magic that he was terminally ill that he could not move from the waist down.

In addition, people also found some evidence from Emperor Qianlong, the successor of Yongzheng. Only one day after Yong Zhengdi's death, that is, on August 25th, Emperor Qianlong suddenly issued a decree to expel the Taoist priest who made an alchemy in Yuanmingyuan from the palace. He also said to Zhang Taixu, Wang Dinggan and others: "Ruoyi and others walked in the Imperial Palace for several years and said a word in front of the Emperor of the Great Line (referring to Yongzheng) ... Once interviewed, they will be strictly investigated and punished immediately." The new king has just succeeded to the throne, and Yongzheng's funeral is not over yet. North Korea has a lot to deal with. Do something else and rush to order the expulsion of several Taoist priests, which is a bit strange.

While expelling the Taoist priests, Qianlong also issued another imperial edict to the eunuchs and maids in the palace, that is, it is forbidden to fabricate false legends about state affairs, "fearing that the empress dowager will be unhappy when she hears them" and "anyone who gossips outside and tells stories to the imperial palace for no reason is an apostate" and "must follow the right path". Why didn't Emperor Qianlong forbid the eunuchs and maids in the palace to talk nonsense? Is there really something I don't want outsiders to know? Contact Qianlong to deal with the monk's way.

Perhaps the theory of "poisoning death" is somewhat possible. And later generations compared the symptoms before Yongzheng's death with modern medical knowledge, and found that Yong Zhengdi's symptoms before his death were very similar to poisoning death. These are just two widely circulated statements. As for historical facts, it remains to be further verified by historians. After Yongzheng's death, he was buried in Tailing Mausoleum in the Western Jin Dynasty, and Sejong Jingtian trombone was transported to Jianzhong. The tables are Wu Yingming, Kuan Renxin, Yi Rui, Sheng Daxiao and Cheng Xiandi. Known as Yong Zhengdi.
