    He wanted to show his loyalty to Yongzheng, showing that he was satisfied if he only wanted to be a prince, and he didn't want to seek power and usurp the throne.

    In order to show his loyalty, he never thought of rebellion.

    There is no exact record of this incident in the official history of China, but it exists in folklore, so I don't think this incident is very credible.

    Prince Yi is the 13th son of Emperor Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi hated Prince Yi very much when he was alive, and later Prince Yi offended other princes because of the hail in the political struggle to the side of the fourth elder brother Yongzheng, so Prince Yi was imprisoned by Emperor Kangxi.

    First, Prince Yi died relatively early.

    The first thing Emperor Yongzheng did after ascending the throne was to release Prince Yi, who had been imprisoned by Emperor Kangxi for 10 yearsAlthough he was taken care of by Emperor Yongzheng during the Yongzheng period, and was named the Iron Hat King, but this did not change his physical condition.

    Because Prince Yi's living conditions were very poor during his captivity, he suffered from a lot of diseases and died at the age of 46.

    Second, Prince Yi has a very good relationship with Yongzheng.

    Prince Yi received special treatment from Yongzheng during his lifetime, mainly because he always stood firmly on Yongzheng's side in the political struggle. Later scholars speculated that Prince Yi was imprisoned by KangxiThere is a very important reason that Prince Yi once said good things for Yongzheng, so he offended other princes, and then was framed by others and imprisoned.

    Yongzheng was very low-key and forbearant when Kangxi was alive, he knew that Prince Yi was imprisoned for himself, but he never pleaded with Emperor Kangxi. Therefore, Yongzheng felt very indebted to Prince Yi in his heart, and he would be better to Prince Yi after ascending the throne.

    Third, historians' discussion of the reasons for Prince Yi's death.

    In Chinese history, there is a lot of speculation about the reason for Prince Yi's death, although the official history records that Prince Yi died of illnessHowever, many wild histories record the state of Prince Yi at the time of his death, saying that he swallowed a lot of soil when he was dying.

    If this is the case, it means that he was abused before he died. However, historians are reluctant to accept such an argument, because there is no exact record in China's official history.

    Summary: Regarding the fact that Prince Yi swallowed the soil before his death, I think it is not very credible, because there is no record of this incident in the official history of China, and this incident is only found in the biography of Yeshi.

    is really envious, because when he chose a cemetery for Emperor Yongzheng before, there was a situation of shirking, and the location of the last burial of the two people was very close, he wanted to tell Emperor Sen of Yongzheng's brother in this way that he and the land had been integrated into the spring grip, and he had decided his final burial place.

    This is not true, because Prince Yi did not swallow the soil when he was dying, but only took a little soil when he obtained his own cemetery.

    This should be fake, because normal people simply do not have such a situation when they die, and he is still a prince.

    This is true, because he drank the poison before he died, but he regretted it because he swallowed the soil to be able to spit it out.

    It was indeed true, because he was very hungry before he died, and he couldn't be a starving ghost even if he wanted to die, so he ate dirt.

    Yes, of course. There is a basis, and the basis is that the "Eight Banners Tongzhi First Collection" recorded this story, and there was a lot of soil in his tomb.

    There is no basis for this, because there is no corresponding record in the relevant history, and it is only a corresponding hearsay, so it is not worth believing.

    As for the relationship, it is very good. Here's an example. In ancient times, when a new emperor ascended the throne, he always had to change some names, because you had to avoid the emperor's name.

    One is the etiquette rules, and the other is also our emperors, I am the only heart! For example, the Shenwu Gate of the Forbidden City, which used to be called Xuanwu Gate, was later changed to avoid the Xuanye character of Emperor Kangxi. After Yongzheng ascended the throne, everyone changed the word Yin to the word Yun.

    However, Yongzheng only did not let Prince Yi Yinxiang change his name, and he was the only one in the Qing Dynasty who did not change his name. Also, Prince Yi's title is hereditary, probably the ninth iron hat king of the Qing Dynasty. Besides, Yongzheng personally chose a cemetery for Prince Yi!

    However, he was rejected by Prince Yi!! Anyway, it's good to him, and it also means that the two of them had a good relationship before. Also, Prince Guo's ending is also very good, don't be deceived by Zhen Huan!
