During the Yongzheng period, Nian Gengyao led troops to slaughter Jiangxia Town and even killed Ganzong in Jiangxia. Why didn't Kangxi pursue it?

Kangxi did not pursue Nian Gengyao because he was afraid of being involved in his silent successor, Yin Zhen, the fourth brother. However, this tragedy of hundreds of people has to be explained to the people all over the world, so he blamed the crime on the thirteenth brother Huang Tianjun.

In fact, after the official statement, it became a matter of course to abolish Prince Yin Ren again. Does Kangxi really care about hundreds of creatures in Jiangxia Town? Of course, he doesn't care. He is most concerned about the great event of establishing a prince. Once the three-dimensional benevolence is abolished again, North Korea will be greatly changed, and the brothers will compete for the Central Plains more and more fiercely. How to protect his successor after the abolition of Prince Yin Ren and let him avoid the mistakes of the abolition of Prince Yin Ren became the most concerned thing of Kangxi.

In Kangxi's view, Yin Ge, the eldest brother, was a first-class rebel who deliberately seized power and tried to assassinate his own brother. And Yin Zhi, the third brother who has read many classics, was not aboveboard and lacked ability when he was down and out after the accident, so it was difficult to shoulder this burden. Although Yin Gui claimed to be a sage in May, he used it to buy people's hearts, not to mention that his confidants were all over the court, and even Kangxi was afraid of three points. How could Kangxi hand over the country to this son who only indulged others? But nine elder brothers and ten elder brothers are all attached with an illusion, which is naturally not a monarch's choice; May 14 is good at fighting, and his military skills are very effective, but he is too frivolous to be a qualified successor. As for the King of Heaven in March and May, he is generous, but he can't turn around, so he can't be an emperor.

And the choice of the monarch is Yin Zhen, he is determined, unable to grasp his ambition. Yin Zhen devoted himself to serving the country, never caring about personal gains and losses, and was willing to be an orphan of the Qing Dynasty. In the south of the Yangtze River, he saved money from salt merchants, pursued the debts owed by the Ministry of Commerce (offending the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty), and recommended General Wang (Yin Gui from the 58th Battalion). Everything is done in Kangxi's heart. This kind of verve is the temperament of Kangxi's optimistic successor.

However, Kangxi couldn't shake it. On the one hand, I am afraid that he will be framed like the Yin people, on the other hand, I will continue to examine him. So when Kangxi thought of this, he also had a clue about how to solve the problem of Jiangxia Town, which is why he didn't pursue the specific executor Nian Gengyao, but just punished 13 May.

As we all know, Nian Gengyao is the slave of Yin Zhen, the fourth brother, not Huang, the thirteenth brother, so the man behind Nian Gengyao is not Huang, but Yin Zhen. If you start from Nian Gengyao and accidentally discover Yin Zhen, it will be a big deal.

This is because the case of Jiangxia Town involved hundreds of lives and few orphans, which was the biggest tragedy since Kangxi came to power. There is something fishy about this, otherwise even if the officers and men and able-bodied men in Jiangxia Town were caught, they wouldn't have to kill the children. Kangxi hated what Nian Gengyao had done, but he was afraid to touch Nian Gengyao for fear of involving Yin Zhen. Otherwise, it is unreasonable not to investigate a major case that killed hundreds of people, not to mention the death of court officials and dozens of officers and men, which is simply a great sin of rebellion.

So Kangxi did two things about it. One is to promote Nian Gengyao as the governor of Sichuan. By default, Yin Zhen didn't do anything wrong, but it was cruel. The second is to punish Huang Hong and let him pay for Yin Zhen and Nianlai, euphemistically called? Temper its mind? .

So at that time, Kangxi acquiesced to Yin Zhen as his successor, not to check Nian Gengyao to save Yin Zhen, but to promote Nian Gengyao to send a signal to encourage Yin Zhen. And since it's under the command of the old thirteen, simply punish thirteen for two crimes (another charge is the assassination of Zheng Chunhua) and ban the clan mansion. It's a pity that Brother Thirteen ordered the pursuit of Ren Boan. What is even more ridiculous is that the Eight Ye Party is still lamenting its own million taels of silver. I didn't expect the old man to have a prince.
