In the article a few days ago, Xiaobian talked to everyone about the story of the Nine Kings at the end of the Kangxi Dynasty. In 1722, after the death of the Kangxi Emperor, the Yongzheng Emperor succeeded to the throne. In fact, the process of yongzheng emperor succession was not smooth, and in the process of Yongzheng's smooth succession, it mainly relied on three people, that is, the old thirteen yinxiang, Long Keduo, and Nian Qianyao. After the Yongzheng Emperor's position was consolidated, why did he want to purge his absolute cronies Nian Tangyao? In fact, Nian Qianyao was not a confidant of the Yongzheng Emperor, and the Yongzheng Emperor could not talk about absolutely trusting Nian Qianyao.
At the end of the reign of the Kangxi Emperor, there was a complicated situation in the dynasty in which the nine kings seized the throne. Nian Qianyao and Old Fourth Yinchen have a little in-law relationship, but Nian Qianyao is not Old Fourth Yinchen's confidant. At that time, the Old Eight Yin Qi Group was in the sky, and Nian Qianyao and the Old Eight Group had an inexplicable relationship. It was not until after the gradual rise of the Old Fourth Group that Nian Qianyao gradually moved closer to the Old Fourth Yinchen. In the process of the Yongzheng Emperor's succession, the problems of the capital depended on the old thirteen Yin Xiang and the Nine Gate Admiral Long Keduo. In the northwest region, it relied on the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Nian Qianyao. Nian Qianyao successfully cut off the logistical supply line of the Northwest Army, causing the old fourteenth Yin Yu to have to return to the Beijing Division for mourning.
In the early period of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty had been fighting with the Dzungars. Since Old Fourteen had returned to the capital, the northwest region still needed the command of a general, and this person must be an absolute confidant of the Yongzheng Emperor. Yongzheng Group does not have many confidants, and the old thirteenth Yinxiang is the most suitable, but he can't leave at all. In the end, only Nian Qianyao could be chosen, and Nian Qianyao was appointed as the general of Fuyuan, commanding more than 200,000 troops throughout the northwest. In fact, since Nian Qianyao became a great general, his attitude has been very arrogant, and he has been drinking from the governors and inspectors of various places. The demands on the household department were getting higher and higher, and the Yongzheng Emperor almost gritted his teeth to supply the large army in the northwest. From this time on, the Yongzheng Emperor was already planning revenge.
After more than a year of war, Nian Qianyao successfully quelled the rebellion in the Qinghai region, which can be said to be a victory over the Hui Dynasty. If Nian Qianyao is smart enough, he should learn to protect himself at this time. However, Nian Tangyao was too brazen, and when he returned to Beijing, the prince all knelt down to greet him. Nian Tangyao's meal is called the role of the meal, and finding a concubine to sleep at night is also a flip card, which is a privilege that the emperor can have. Nian Qianyao used his position to install many cronies, which was called the annual election. In addition, Nian Tangyao also had the problem of embezzling military salaries, which was a big problem. The position of the Yongzheng Emperor was gradually consolidated, and as the threat disappeared one by one, the Yongzheng Emperor also began to purge the heroes.
The Yongzheng Emperor's cleaning of Nian Qianyao was a bit like a cat playing with mice, and the Yongzheng Emperor did not directly kill Nian Qianyao, but tossed it a little bit. Adjust Nian Tangyao from east to west, from south to north. After investigation, Nian Qianyao embezzled a total of more than 8 million taels of silver. Perhaps everyone does not know what this concept is, in the early period of the Qing Dynasty, an ordinary peasant family, a year's income did not exceed 10 taels of silver. 8 million taels of silver was a super huge amount, more than the treasury reserves at that time. In the end, Nian Qianyao became the guard of the Hangzhou City Gate, and in order to express his dissatisfaction, Nian Qianyao still wore the yellow coat rewarded by the emperor. The Yongzheng Emperor was very angry and ordered Nian Qianyao to commit suicide.
If Nian Qianyao was shrewd enough, he should know the end of Han Xin and Guo Ziyi. Because of threatening Liu Bang in a critical moment, Liu Bang hated Han Xin to the bone. At the same time, Guo Ziyi, as a great hero in quelling the chaos of Anshi, was very low-key in his life. Nian Qianyao was very stupid in this regard, and did not mean to converge at all. Of course, in addition to Nian Qianyao, the Yongzheng Emperor then packed up Longkeduo. Compared with Nian Qianyao, Long Keduo knew too many secrets and began to meddle in the succession of the next generation, which made the Yongzheng Emperor furious.
