In the forty-seventh year of Kangxi (A.D. 1708), Emperor Kangxi took eight sons hunting together to educate his sons not to forget the hardships of living a happy life. Unfortunately, Yin Kun, a 18-year-old brother, went to receive education and suddenly fell ill and died on the road.
In an ordinary family, a brother died of illness, and his brother must be very heartbroken. But in the emperor's house, a brother of the same age died, so it's good that the brothers don't steal the fun. This made Kangxi, who advertised the rule of the world with benevolence and filial piety, feel sad, especially Yin Ren. In the face of such changes, he didn't see a trace of sadness. Kangxi was very dissatisfied with Yin Ren's indifferent behavior and scolded his accompanying brother by the way.
The Crown Prince has served in the Royal Reserve for more than 40 years, and he is increasingly uncertain, so he always wants to know what Kangxi is thinking and what he will do in the future. So he used the most stupid method-after nightfall, he went to spy on Emperor Kangxi outside his bedroom!
In the forty-second year of Kangxi (1703), Kangxi accused the Suo 'er regiment of a crime and handed it over to Zongren House for investigation. Kangxi once said: "It is better not to strike first." It can be seen how worried Kangxi was at that time that Suoetu and the prince and others would force the palace or even rebel.
The Crown Prince's EQ is not too high. Kangxi has made a claim map, why not be honest? So the "peeping door" mentioned above appeared. As a result, Kangxi was very angry and the consequences were very serious. The first prince of the Qing Dynasty was thus abolished.
Extended data:
In the forty-seventh year of Kangxi (1708), on the fourth day of September, Emperor Kangxi publicly announced that he had deposed Crown Prince Yin Geng, who had been in office for 33 years. There are as many as ten charges.
Among them, "bullying and poisoning ministers, harassing people, robbing foreign princes and horses, colluding with party member, and interfering in state affairs" belongs to the category of state affairs, while the younger brother 18, who is under eight years old, suffers from illness, is hard to recover, is cold-blooded and heartless, and secretly spies on his father's daily life with malicious intentions, belongs to the category of family relations.
The old Emperor Kangxi (at the age of 55), faced with the pain of losing his youngest son, was quite disgusted with the prince's behavior of sneaking into his residence every night, holding his breath and looking inward, regardless of brotherhood and not knowing how to comfort his father. The old emperor was restless day and night, always worried that he would be poisoned today and killed tomorrow.
Emperor Kangxi's political dissatisfaction with Yin Yong was intertwined with the discord between father and son. The mistakes made by his son became detailed in the magnifying glass of imperial power, and the once intelligent, immature and innocent son became cruel and terrible. Emperor Kangxi even angrily accused Yin Gang of "being born with a mother, and such a person was called unfilial in ancient times", and turned the past into the general ledger. Since the son is unfilial, it is difficult for the father to be kind.
May 18th just died, Yin Yong was immediately deposed and ordered to be kept in Xian 'an Palace in Xihuamen of the Forbidden City.
Although the relationship between Emperor Kangxi and Yin Geng's father and son faded, they were occasionally awakened. Calm down, Emperor Kangxi once suspected that Yin Ren's abnormal performance was caused by the curse of ghosts and gods. After treatment and rest, he seems to have recovered. On the ninth day of March in the forty-eighth year of Kangxi, he was declared as the Crown Prince again.
However, three and a half years later, that is, on September 30, the fifty-first year of Kangxi, Yin Yong was abolished again on the grounds that "madness has not been removed, right and wrong are indistinguishable, and nature is cruel." After the abolition of the Prince, Emperor Kangxi decided not to set up a store. Kangxi succeeded to the throne in his later years, and since then it has become an unsolved case, which has caused many subsequent storms.
