How strong was the old eight of Yongzheng dynasty, so that Yongzheng didn't settle it until the last year of his life?

During the emperor's career in 6 1 year, Kangxi experienced many great events and spoke highly of him, the most wonderful of which was the party struggle between his sons, that is, in the novel? Nine kings seized the office? Among these sons of Kangxi, the most capable and scheming are May 4th and May 8th. The party struggle between these brothers can be said to be the most distinctive political struggle in history.

It can be said that when the dynasties competed for the throne, they were ruthless and no one was soft. As the saying goes, the winner is king, the loser is kou, and the prince who doesn't get it in place usually ends badly. As the ultimate winner of dozens of sons of Kangxi, Yongzheng's talent and IQ can be described as incisively and vividly, and he is also cruel to his brothers. After he took office, the disposal of his brothers began, and the biggest obstacle was Lao Ba.

The strength of Lao Ba is not simple, and it is excellent in itself. When Kangxi was in power, Lao Ba was good at netting officials and developing his own strength, which was complicated. The eight lords are also known as the Eight Immortals. And the influence is getting bigger and bigger. With the full support of Lao Shi, the Eight Lords side is growing stronger and stronger. Laojiu, Lao Shi and even Yong Zheng's younger brother Lao Shi were his cronies.

Lao Ba has a high IQ and is good at winning people's hearts. He has trained a group of capable assistants, and Jiangnan also has a confidant who makes money for his property. This is all a game he set for the emperor. Therefore, since they are brothers, the opponent of the May 4th and May 13th important struggles is Lao Ba.

It started with a fight with the prince. After the first abolition of the Prince, some ministers wrote to Kangxi to set up another Prince, and most officials were loyal to May. It can be said that this old eight has a strong ability to win people's hearts. Of course, Kangxi was not confused, just didn't give him a chance. After the prince was completely abolished, it was a formal struggle between the Eighth Master and the Fourth Master.

On the night of Kangxi's death, Lao Ba had plans to change into a confidant in Fengtai Camp. The meaning is very clear. Even if he is not a candidate for the emperor, he will launch a mutiny to rob him. Fortunately, Yongzheng had a think tank who thought of this in advance, pardoned the thirteenth master with Kangxi's gold medal, and made Yongzheng successfully ascend to the throne of the emperor.

After Yongzheng proclaimed himself emperor, the state treasury was empty at that time, and most of them belonged to the eight lords. Yongzheng's confidants, except for the thirteenth master who did not become emperor, were all eight masters. This resentment has always been directed at Yongzheng, and gradually fell to the Eight Lords Group. Yongzheng's strength here is very poor. It doesn't work, so we have to play hard to get and deal with Master Eight slowly. Of course, Lao Ba didn't become emperor. I have been secretly working for the throne. Although I didn't say anything, I did something. I even want to persuade the son of Yongzheng, Hong Shi, to get rid of Li Hong, which can indirectly realize my wish.

After Yongzheng came to power, the most urgent problem was to train his own people, support the new forces as much as possible and develop his own confidants. At the same time, he also used some people he valued when he was a brother to weaken the influence of the Eight Ye Party.

If Grandpa Eight is willing to put aside past grievances and take good care of Yongzheng's politics, Yongzheng will not start, and even the relationship will be better, but Grandpa Eight has been unconvinced. In the end, the Eight Lords were still willing to make the final bet, and the Eight Kings were forced into the palace, forcing Yongzheng to start work on him, which was also a good opportunity to start work. Therefore, the overall situation of Yongzheng cloth is ultimately successful.
