Qianlong admired his grandfather Kangxi very much, and after he ascended the throne, he vowed that he would never be in office longer than his grandfather. Kangxi reigned for 6 1 year, and Qianlong felt that 60 years was enough. Are you online? Is it rare for people to live to 70 years old? In the 1980 s, 25-year-old Gan Long was estimated to live beyond 60. But he never imagined that he lived to the age of 89 and won the crown of ancient emperors' life span.
However, longevity is not necessarily a good thing. Because of his long life, Qianlong suffered from parting all his life. His favorite queen, Fu Cha, died at the age of 37, leaving Qianlong with endless grief for the rest of his life. In addition, Qianlong * * has 17 princes, of which 13 is actually ahead of him. Chu Jun's favorite candidates died early one after another. In his later years, Gan Long faced the problem of establishing a reserve team, which was both helpless and a headache.
17 among the princes, only May Yong Xuan, May Yong Xun, May Yan Yong and May Yong Lian lived in Qianlong. It seems to be one of the four choices, but after using the exclusion method, Gan Long had to sigh: There is really no choice!
May Yong Xuan: No sacred heart, the earliest.
Yong Xuan's biological mother is Jin Jiashi, the imperial concubine of Shu family. Jin Jiashi was born in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and his ancestors were from Yizhou, South Korea. Jin Jiashi is an old man in Qianlong's hiding place, and he is quite loved by Qianlong. She gave birth to four sons and died at the age of 42.

When Jin Jiashi died, Yongxuan was only 9 years old. I don't know if I lost my mother at a young age and no one took care of her. Yong Xuan's personality is a bit odd. It happened that his foot was still disabled and he walked with a limp. Such an external image is naturally not suitable for being a monarch.
According to North Korea's Li Dynasty:? The eighth son, Yong Xuan, was frivolous, doing things upside down, indulging in debauchery, suffering from foot diseases, and no one could match him, and the emperor did not treat him as a child. ? There are rumors in this record, which are not completely credible. However, Gan Long did not include Yong Xuan in the consideration of Chu Jun candidates. He always disliked Yong Xuan and was reprimanded. 1789, Qianlong conferred the title of Prince, while the 11th Prince Yong Xuan, 15th Prince Yan Yong and 6th Prince Yan Yong who were adopted to Yunxi in earlier years were all conferred the title of Prince, but the 8th Prince Yong Xuan didn't catch anything, and the title remained at the level of county king ten years ago.
According to the practice of the Qing dynasty, Qianlong also sent many errands to Yong Xuan, such as making Yong Xuan the chief executive of compiling Si Ku Quan Shu and taking charge of the administration. From this point of view, Yong Xuan is not an ignorant person. Gan Long attached great importance to the compilation of Sikuquanshu, and often made spot checks in person. On one occasion, Gan Long found that Yong Xuan was responsible for some mistakes and fined Yong Xuan for six months.
Although he was not favored by his father, Yongxuan inherited his father's longevity gene and lived to 87 years old, becoming the longest-lived prince in the Qing Dynasty.
Brother Yong Xun: Smart and stingy.
Yong Xun and Yong Xuan are half-brothers, and their biological mother is Jin Jiashi, the imperial concubine of the Shu family. When Jin Jiashi died, Jin Yong was only 3 years old. I can't remember. As an adult, Yong Xun is brilliant, not only good at poetry and painting, but also extremely profound in calligraphy. According to Xiao Ting Miscellaneous Records, Jin Yong's fame was heavy for a while, and the literati got a piece of paper and a word, which was as heavy as a treasure. ? Yongzheng, Weng Fanggang, Liu Yong and Tie Bao are also called "Qianlong Emperor"? Four great calligraphers? . Throughout the 300 years of the Qing Dynasty, Jin Yong's calligraphy can be ranked in the top five.

However, Yong Xun also has personality characteristics that Gan Long is very dissatisfied with.
First of all, Aria is very popular. ? When he was young, he wrote poems and signed autographs for his brother Yan Yong's fans. Brother Jing Quan? Jin Yong is the mirror of spring. Gan Long was very angry when he saw it. He believes that Yong Xun was tainted with the arty habits of Han literati and forgot the root of Manchu's good riding and shooting and good force. Furthermore, people who are too accustomed to literati are also prone to tragedy politically, such as Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and Evonne, Song Huizong. Therefore, it is reasonable for Qianlong, as the emperor, to oppose the prince taking his own nickname to recite poems and fetch the moon.
Secondly, Jin Yong was stingy by nature. Yong Xun's meanness can be said to be as famous as his calligraphy. Jin Yong's Fu Cha family is the daughter of Fu Heng, a university student, and also the niece of Fu Cha, the former emperor Qianlong. When Fu Chashi married Yong Xun, she brought a generous dowry from her family. However, as soon as she entered the door, her dowry was confiscated by Jin Yong (the dowry of ancient women was private property, and a slightly decent family would not move her daughter-in-law's dowry), and her quality of life declined seriously. Since then, she has been forced to live without food (the princess only eats porridge every day). Suffering from this harsh treatment, Fu Cha's depression became a disease, and gradually came? Phlegm-heat takes advantage of heart cells, annoys heat to relieve asthma and promote insomnia, crying nonsense? The point is.
The best is yet to come. Once, a horse died in Jin Yong's home. Yongxun directly ordered the horse to be slaughtered and cooked instead. The palace has become a slaughterhouse every second, killing horses here and cooking pots there. The palace eats horse meat all day. As soon as this story got out, everyone laughed their heads off.
Gan Long couldn't stand it. He scolded him many times and wanted him to get rid of his stingy habit? It's not a poor family. It's a shame to treat your family so badly. But always go your own way and never regret it.
Yong Xun was very talented, but the pattern was too small, so he was sent away from Chu Jun by Qianlong.
Grandet-style Jin Yong did not come to a good end. In his later years, Yong Xun was mad at the sudden death of his children and grandchildren. In today's words, there is something wrong with the spirit. A few months before his death, Yong Jun refused to take a bath. After Jin Yong's death, the wealth of the palace was plundered by servants.
Seventeen elder brother Lin Yong: The youngest tooth, wanton and happy.
Lin Yong's biological mother is the famous filial piety queen Wei Jiashi, that is, Qianlong loves you very much. He is the youngest son of Qianlong, born in the thirty-first year of Qianlong. From God's point of view, Qianlong last revised the secret edict in 1773, when Lin Yong was only 7 years old, so it was impossible to take it into consideration. However, Gan Long was 63 years old at that time, and he didn't know when his time would suddenly come. He must make a decision on Chu Jun as soon as possible. Lin Yong was born late, so Li Chu naturally didn't have his share.
