The reason why Yinzhi committed suicide was also because he was born in an emperor's family.
Yinzhi once had a close relationship with the prince, which aroused Yongzheng's suspicion that he was interested in the throne, but was just keeping a low profile due to the situation. Secondly, even though Yunzhi really had no intention of seizing the throne, he was once favored and favored by Emperor Kangxi, which proved his strong personal ability. This was also a threat to Yongzheng, who had just ascended the throne at that time.
The thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang is the most trusted and relied-upon brother and minister of Emperor Yongzheng. Yinxiang's death had already dealt a huge blow to Emperor Yongzheng. If Yunzhi was disrespectful at the funeral, Zhengzheng gave Emperor Yongzheng a reason to deal with him. It was precisely because of this incident that Yunzhi was imprisoned by Emperor Yongzheng until his death. This is also the sad helplessness of being born in an emperor's family. Afraid of double-mindedness
Since Yongzheng was able to win from the Nine Sons to seize the throne, it can be seen that he was thoughtful and cautious. Such a person would not trust anyone except his close friends. It is true that Yinzhi had no intention of serving the government, but after all, Yinzhi was a member of Prince Yinreng's party. Even though he had very few opportunities to perform in the entire process of seizing the throne, it does not prove that he did not.
The eldest son of the emperor, Yinzhen, wanted to murder the prince Yinzhen through nightmare magic. The informant was Yinzhi, who had always been mediocre. It can be seen that Yinzhi still had his own spies in the palace.
How could Yongzheng, who had always been cautious, not be suspicious of his imperial brother? Yongzheng also lamented that Yinzhi did have extraordinary talents, but the two did not agree so they could not appoint him. Yongzheng also understood that reusing Yinzhi would bring him a lot of convenience. Yinzhi's wisdom had always been relatively high, but similarly, once something went wrong with Yinzhi, Yongzheng would undoubtedly suffer the most.
After all kinds of considerations, Yongzheng finally chose Yinzhi, who did not have to worry about having second thoughts. Either he should employ people without doubt, or he should not use them if he was suspicious. Yongzheng had always had a clear attitude on how to employ people. Enemy Yinxiang
Yinxiang is Yongzheng's best friend. Although they are not brothers from the same father and mother, they are better than real brothers. Yinxiang helped Yongzheng a lot in his fight for the legitimate son. Such a brother Yongzheng naturally wanted to take more care of him, but Yinzhi just turned against Yinxiang. As mentioned above, Yinzhi had his hair shaved not a hundred days after Concubine Min's death. According to Manchu rules, Yinzhi did not want Concubine Min to have a better life underground.
Afterwards, Kangxi also punished Yinzhi and demoted Yinzhi from prince to beile, but this could not calm Yinxiang's anger, because Concubine Min was Yinxiang's biological mother. Furthermore, when Yinxiang passed away, not only was Yinzhi late for the funeral, but he also didn't feel any sadness during the whole process, which completely made Yongzheng unhappy.
It is known to everyone in the court that Yinxiang is the brother with whom Yongzheng has the best relationship. Now that you, Yinzhi, are doing this at Yinxiang’s funeral, doesn’t it mean that you are telling everyone that you are not convinced by Yongzheng? For all these reasons Let Yongzheng understand that Yinzhi could not only be reused but also could not be retained. At that time, Yinzhi happened to be involved in a corruption case, and Yongzheng seized this opportunity to imprison Yinzhi.
In this way, Yinzhi's family was all imprisoned in Yong'an Pavilion in Jingshan. Until Yinzhi's death, he never left the prison. I have to say that Yongzheng was really ruthless in this regard.
