Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

In the study room, Yinyi is studying with his teacher.

The teacher was talking to Yinyi about Zizhi Tongjian, Li Shimin's Xuanwu Gate Incident, his political measures, and his issue of succession.

After the lecture, the teacher asked him: "Sixteenth Prince, do you have any questions?"

He had read the history of the Tang Dynasty. Yin Yi was smart. Although he could not memorize everything he read, he could always remember the contents of the book after reading it several times.

He had read Zizhi Tongjian before his teacher taught him, and even asked An Ning some questions. An Ning gave his own insights and told him to ask more questions from others in the future, not just listen to one person's opinion, and look at problems from multiple angles.

Yin Yi: "Teacher just mentioned Li Chengqian. I want to know why Li Chengqian's contrast is so great?"

These words made his teacher pause, and also made Kangxi, who was eavesdropping outside, pause.

It's not that this question cannot be answered. At this point in time, no matter how he answers it, it seems wrong. But since the emperor asked, he has to answer it.

After thinking for a while, the teacher said cautiously: "It may be related to Li Chengqian's sudden foot disease. Emperor Taizong of Tang was an emperor who pursued perfection. Li Chengqian had a foot disease. Although he did not depose the crown prince, he began to favor Li Tai. Li Chengqian began to feel uneasy, which led to his madness. It was like a different person."

Yin Yi shook his head: "Is that all?"

Teacher: "Sixteenth Prince, what do you think is the reason?"

Yin Yi thought for a moment: "Li Chengqian is the eldest son of Empress Zhangsun. He represents the interests of part of the Guanlong Group. But as he grew up, Li Chengqian had differences of interest with the Guanlong Group headed by Zhangsun Wuji.

They found that Li Chengqian was not easy to control, so they introduced Li Tai. Finally, the Guanlong Group headed by Zhangsun Wuji chose Li Zhi, who was young, seemed kind and easy to control.

It can be said that Li Chengqian was not driven crazy by Li Shimin's favoritism towards Li Tai, but the forces behind him discovered that he might lose control, which led to Li Chengqian's tragedy! "

This is a very novel statement, looking at the issue from the perspective of interest groups.

After Yinyi finished speaking, his heart was beating fast. He knew that Kangxi had a habit of eavesdropping. Now he was the only student in the room, so he specially made an "early warning" device so that he would know as soon as Kangxi arrived.

The reason why I said this was intentional.

There was no way to delve deeper into the question of Li Shimin's successor, but he knew what kind of answer Kangxi wanted to hear.

Kangxi also blamed himself, blaming himself for not teaching Yinreng well, which led to his bad behavior.

Yin Yi's words were equivalent to telling Kangxi that it was not your fault, but the struggle between the forces behind the prince. It was not your fault, but the fault of those interest groups.

This was a disguised way of comforting Kangxi. Plus, what he said was not impossible. The key point was that he was only thirteen years old. At the age of thirteen, he had already learned to see the essence of a problem through phenomena, which was not easy.

Kangxi felt that this son was really good, intelligent, and his perspective on issues was consistent with that of a superior.

I was just so mad at a group of annoying sons, but now after listening to Yin Yi's words, the guilt in my heart has been reduced and I feel a lot better.

Just when the teacher wanted to say something, Kangxi came in. After some greetings, Kangxi sent away Yinyi's teacher, then looked at Yinyi and began to test him.

Yinyi was a good student and was not afraid of this kind of test. But this test shocked Kangxi!

This son is really smart. He can understand things quickly and has a profound view of things. Some of his ideas even coincide with his own.

As for why they had such a coincidence, An Ning had given him some advice in advance. If his young son could see things more deeply and long-term than his father, an ordinary family would naturally be happy.

But the royal family may not be happy about this. They must give the emperor a chance to teach his son. It is not a big deal if he makes some small mistakes. Instead, it can promote the harmony of the father-son relationship.

The more Kangxi and Yinyi talked, the happier they became.

This reminded Kangxi of Yinreng. Yinyi was smart and studious, and so was Yinreng. The key was that Yinreng was spoiled and domineering, which was something Kangxi indulged intentionally or unintentionally.

Yinyi had no such shortcomings at all. He was studious and thoughtful, which made Kangxi feel more gratified than Yinreng.

In the past, when the crown prince was around, Kangxi felt that Yinyi was smart, but that was only in studying, that is, he learned everything quickly. Now, Yinyi's intelligence lies in his political foresight.

This thing is a necessary condition to become an emperor.

At this time, Kangxi was only pleased that his youngest son was smart and like himself. In the future, when he needed to choose a son to inherit his throne, Yinyi would be one of Kangxi's choices even though he was young.

As for the forces behind it?

The Ulanara family was his backer. Kangxi had the military power and he had the right to decide who he wanted to give the imperial power to as long as it did not violate the core interests of the Manchu nobles.

An Ning was born into the Ulanara clan, and Yinyi represented the interests of the Manchu nobles to a certain extent.

After the test, Kangxi suddenly asked: "Just now I asked your brothers how to deal with your second brother. Your eldest brother said that he wanted to put your second brother in the beekeeping lane. I think this is a good idea. Do you think I should agree?"

After listening to this, Yinyi thought that Kangxi was crazy for asking him such a question. Was this the right question to ask him?

In fact, it is not Kangxi's fault. Kangxi was really a little "crazy". The prince whom he raised was deposed by his own hands. It was a big blow to him. He was extremely eager to find a way to vent.

He felt pity for Yinreng in his heart, so he also hoped that his other sons would also feel pity for Baocheng.

Kangxi may not have been aware of this mentality, but it was reflected in his actions.

Yinyi discussed this issue with An Ning, and the mother and son always believed that Kangxi always loved Yinreng.

So his answer was simple.

Yinyi looked at Kangxi in surprise and said, "Father, please have mercy on me. I have heard from you that Yangfengjiadao is not a good place to live. After all, my second brother is your own son. Please forgive me."

Kangxi finally felt a little comforted that not all his sons hoped that his Baocheng would not do well. He felt that Yinyi was a good man and that the brothers were friendly and respectful to each other, which was a good thing.

However, Kangxi did not show it on his face. Instead, he looked unhappy: "Why? Do you think I am mean and ungrateful?"

Yin Yi immediately knelt down and said, "Father, please calm down. How could I think like that? Even if my second brother cannot become the crown prince, he is still your son and my biological brother. Since I moved into the prince's residence, my second brother and his wife have taken good care of me. Please forgive my second brother."

Kangxi continued to frown: "Then how should I deal with Yinreng?"

Yin Yi thought for a while and said, "My son thinks it would be better to make the second brother a king and choose a suitable place for him to live."

Kangxi became happier as he looked at Yinyi. He thought so too, but unfortunately, no one brought it up. He had dealt with Yinreng's followers, and the rest were all asked to severely punish Yinreng. Even if he was not asked to punish him severely, the treatment of Yinreng was not good.

All in all, Kangxi left with satisfaction, and no one knew about the conversation between the father and son in the study room except Liang Jiugong.

However, rewards followed, and everyone could see that Kangxi was satisfied with Yinyi.

But if someone doesn't take it to heart, everyone can understand that it is normal for the adult sons to be disobedient, fight for power and seek comfort from the youngest son.

Because of Yin Yi's age, no one regards him as a competitor. Instead, he is regarded as an object to be won over.
