How did Yong Zhengdi die?

There are two mysteries in Yongzheng, one is the mystery of Yongzheng's succession and the other is the mystery of Yongzheng's death. I summed up the cause of death of Yongzheng, and there are probably five kinds of statements.

The first theory is that Yongzheng was beheaded by Lv Siniang. At this time, a literary inquisition case happened in Lv Liuliang, and Lv Liuliang was severely punished. However, it is said that his daughter, some people say that his granddaughter, Lv Siniang, escaped after being arrested and was not killed, so Lv Siniang learned martial arts from her teacher. Later, she managed to sneak into the palace in disguise and saw an opportunity to cut off Yongzheng's head and avenge her father or grandfather. This legend is very vivid, so how can Yongzheng mourn without a head? It is said that a golden head was made and put on a shelf, and it was buried in the Tailing of Yongzheng. Many experts believe that Yongzheng was killed by Lv Siniang after textual research, which is unlikely, because Lv Liuliang's daughter could not escape because of strict control at that time. To say the least, even if she runs away, she can't get into the palace. Even if she enters the palace, she has no chance to kill Yongzheng. So this is just a vivid and interesting story made up by a unofficial history novel here.

The second statement is also very bizarre, that is, Cao Xueqin, the author of A Dream of Red Mansions, has a lover named Joo Sang wook, who is very beautiful and can sing and dance well. She was attracted by Yongzheng and took her to the palace. He took away Cao Xueqin's love, so Cao Xueqin secretly contacted Joo Sang wook. Although Joo Sang wook was in the palace, he was still thinking about Cao Xueqin, so he saw the opportunity and murdered Yongzheng. This is also the words of unofficial history's novels, which have no historical basis and cannot be believed.

The third book is called Brahma Lu Cong Lu. This book says that Yongzheng was strangled by a maid-in-waiting, but he was almost saved. I think this story belongs to replacing trees with flowers. There is such a story in the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Jiajing was very angry with the maids in Jiajing 2 1 year of Ming Dynasty. Because Jiajing took alchemy medicine, he sometimes had a bad temper and often whipped the maids. There is a maid-in-waiting named Yang. One night, while Emperor Jiajing was asleep, she tied Jiajing's neck with yellow silk. Because I was particularly nervous, I tied a fast knot in my panic. She thought she was strangled, and another maid-in-waiting involved was afraid. She quickly told the queen about it. The queen rushed over and saw Jiajing was dead. The queen hurriedly ordered the physician to call Xu Shen. I thought the problem was serious when I came, so I took emergency medicine and cured it. Four hours later, Jiajing made a sound. Then, according to historical records, "Jiajing vomited several liters of purple blood". Later, after a period of conditioning, Jiajing was resurrected, and of course, Yang and others were killed. This thing is true and recorded in history. It is said that when Emperor Jiajing slept at night, this room had 3,927 beds, and others didn't know which bed he slept in. Later, I asked the gentleman in the Forbidden City if he had found out if his bed was twenty-seven. He said it was impossible to take the exam, because it was a matter of the Ming Dynasty and the pattern of the Qing Dynasty changed. Jiajing was strangled by a maid-in-waiting and was later rescued. This is a historical fact. I have seen North Korea's A Record of the Li Dynasty, and North Korea's envoys came to the Ming Dynasty and made a detailed record of this matter. The story we just told is to move the story of the Ming Dynasty to Yongzheng, which may have been compiled in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China to fight against Manchuria. But it can be solemnly said that this is not a historical fact.

Fourthly, some scholars have verified that Yongzheng died of a stroke. Many scholars agree with this view, but there is no conclusive evidence that he died of a stroke. Let's count.

Fifth, people are more interested in Dan poisoning. After the middle period of Yongzheng, especially after he became seriously ill, Da wrote in person, asking the local officials to recommend famous doctors and magicians to the palace to treat him and help him with health care. Yongzheng wanted to live forever, so he recommended it everywhere.

Later, there were two great Taoist priests, one named Zhang Taixu and the other named Wang Dinggan. After they arrived at the palace, the two great Taoist priests helped Yongzheng refine Dan medicine and gave them magic. Yongzheng really believed in Taoism. In Gan Qing Palace, in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, in other places, in some places, altars were set up to worship the memorial tablets of Taoist gods. Later, Yongzheng was in Yuanmingyuan for a long time. He sent people to Yuanmingyuan to deliver a large amount of alchemy medicine. Before he died, he sent 200 kilograms of black lead two days ago. Yongzheng once sent 157 times the items needed for alchemy in five years, which were recorded in the First Historical Archives as working files. Not only did he take the pills of the alchemist himself, but he also trusted those ministers and sent people to eat them. Yongzheng took pills of an alchemist for a long time, and some heavy metals such as mercury, lead and selenium may be poisoned. It should be said that the death of Yongzheng was related to lead poisoning and Dan poisoning. According to statistics, as many as 14 people died in the history of China. Now, according to the archives of the imperial court, Yongzheng's death is an official record, which may be a normal death or a death caused by taking Dan medicine poisoning. I think there may be many reasons, which eventually led to a result, that is, Yongzheng died at the age of 58.
