Yongzheng Dynasty: How useful is Kangxi's gold medal?

In the TV series Yongzheng Dynasty, everyone must have an impression of the gold medal arrow on the night when Kangxi died. After all, Yongzheng was looking for the gold medal arrow for the first time, and the later thirteen people completed the key step of winning Fengtai Camp through this gold medal arrow. So how useful is this gold medal? Today Song Anzhi will talk about it. First of all, Kangxi's gold medal direction is like the sword on the side that the emperor personally visited, which can be said to be a big bug in the TV series of Yongzheng Dynasty. Fortunately, the TV series also pays attention to the word balance, so the bug of the gold medal commanding arrow, that is, it appeared once on the night of Kangxi's death, and it never appeared again after helping Lao XIII successfully seize the military power of Fengtai Camp. Here is a cliche. This article only talks about the plots of TV dramas of Yongzheng dynasty, not about history, and does not regard TV dramas as official history. Just watch them, not as real history. Let's take a look at how much role this gold medal headquarters played at that time. After Kangxi's death, the Eight Ye Party headed by Lao Ba was unwilling. At that time, rumors spread to the fourteenth brother, not the fourth brother. Because of this argument, even the princes fought. Zhang supported Lao Si, so he sent Zhang Fu Lao Si to rest in the temple, in fact, in order to let Lao Si have time to decorate calmly. The first thing Lao Si did was not to continue to grieve, nor to send Zhang to save Lao San or to arrange for anyone to release Lao San in advance, but to ask where Zhang Jin was going. After he got the gold medal, he immediately sent Zhang to find Mr. Wu with the gold medal, and then Zhang took the gold medal to rescue the third child. It can be seen that this gold medal direction is the same as the emperor's personal visit, not a decoration. At the very least, through this gold medal direction, the old thirteen who Kangxi personally banned can be released. Then the old thirteen took time to go to Fengtai camp to seize the military power, because the prefect of Fengtai camp was an old eight, and he was ready to lead troops to respond to the old Bayi Party. Whether the old thirteen can successfully seize the military power of that year is a key step for the old four to inherit the throne. After the third son passed, relying on his far-reaching advantages in the army, he directly let his three old men turn back on him, then killed the disobedient document transshipment, seized the relieving of Fengtai camp, and led troops to Changchun Garden to guard the fourth son. What role did the Gold Medal Command play in this process? To tell the truth, it's not big, but it's not small. After Lao Thirteen took out the gold medal direction, everyone knelt down and shouted to the emperor at that time, including the prefect of the old Bayi Party. It can be seen that the gold medal direction really had the effect of the emperor coming in person. But after Lao Thirteen summoned three old staff officers to be promoted to lieutenant and asked them to lead troops to Changchun Garden, it showed that Lao Thirteen didn't trust others. After winning everyone's approval with the gold medal, he wanted to spend time leading some trusted military forces to the king of Qin. However, the Fengtai magistrate was an old eight, so he refused, so he stopped the old thirteen, and then the old thirteen dismissed the Fengtai magistrate. Write thirteen didn't give up, but wanted to rely on their daily accumulated strength, the headquarters will go back, and even tried to lay hands on the third, but was killed by the third's men. Explain that the role of the gold medal direction is not really like the emperor's arrival. Even if the prince holds the gold medal, those ambitious people will not really think it is like the emperor's visit. Of course, if conditions permit, it is estimated that the emperor dares to kill the old son, not to mention a mere gold medal direction, so we can't say that the gold medal direction is useless, let alone despise it. Let's assume that, judging from the four men brought by Lao San, he always had the intention of killing Moire, the prefect of Fengtai, to seize the relieving, otherwise he wouldn't have killed Moire so smoothly when Moire changed. If there is no gold medal direction, the old thirteen will not have the legitimacy of the emperor's visit. After the death of Cheng, the prefect of Fengtai, even with the support of the old staff of Lao San, Cheng, as the prefect of Fengtai, will definitely stand up against Lao San. Although Lao Thirteen's old men, coupled with his profound influence in the army, are sure to seize the relieving, internal chaos in Fengtai camp is inevitable, which will definitely delay the time to go to the king of Qin. With the direction of gold medal, Lao San means to represent the court and the emperor. It is no problem to kill the guilty Wen Yun below, and Wen Yun's confidant can't be attacked, so the third can successfully seize the relieving, avoid a chaos, avoid unnecessary risks and save a lot of time. The role is still great. Of course, after talking about the role of the gold medal, in fact, in addition to the details of the gold medal, there are many intriguing places in the details of the fourth enthronement. For example, Kangxi left many successors to Lao Si on the night of his death, such as letting Zhang, the first party of Lao Si, pick him up, thus ensuring his safety. Pass Zhang, give the gold medal to Lao Si in time, and let Lao Si release Lao Si in time. In this way, Kangxi did not release Lao Shisan himself, but deliberately let Lao Si release Lao Shisan, just to let Lao Si further win over Lao Shisan, which can be said to have left a very rich political legacy for the new king. And before Kangxi died, he was relieved of all the errands of Lao Si and Lao Ba, as well as the university titles of Zhang and March. They are putting smoke bombs, confusing Lao Ba and Lao Shi, and covering Lao Si. It is also a good intention to avoid the involvement of ministers such as Zhang in the struggle for office, try to maintain the stability of the DPRK, leave available people for the fourth, and even let the fourth regain the hearts and minds by restoring his official position after he ascended the throne. These details are worth pondering, which is also an important reason why the TV series Yongzheng Dynasty is called a classic. Do you understand now?
